This prospectus relates to the firm commitment public offering of 2,000,0003,500,000 units (the “common units”) of Infinite Group, Inc. (“Infinite Group,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”), a Delaware corporation, based on an assumed initial offering price of $7.50$4.38 per common unit, the mid-pointunit. We are offering up to 3,500,000 of the anticipated price rangeunits consisting of the common units. Each common unit consists ofeither (i) one share of common stock $0.001 par value per share, and twothree redeemable warrants each to purchase one share of common stock.stock (the “common units”); or (ii) one pre-funded warrant to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $0.001 per share and three redeemable warrants each to purchase one share of common stock (the “pre-funded units” and together with the common units, the “units”). We anticipate that the initial public offering price will be between $6.50 and $8.50 per common unit.$4.38. The offering price of common units at the time of pricing, considering our historical performance and capital structure, prevailing market conditions, and overall assessment of our business, may be at a discount to the current market price of our shares of common stock.

We are also offering to those purchasers, if any, whose purchase of common units in this offering would otherwise result in the purchaser, together with its affiliates and certain related parties, beneficially owning more than 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of our outstanding shares of common stock immediately following the consummation of this offering, the opportunity to purchase, if the purchaser so chooses,The pre-funded units (the “pre-funded units” and together with the common units, the “units”)are being offered to purchasers in lieu of common units that would otherwise result in the purchaser’s beneficial ownership exceeding 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of our outstanding shares of common stock. EachThere can be no assurance that we will sell any of the pre-funded unit will consist of a pre-funded warrant to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $0.001 per share (each a “pre-funded warrant”) and two redeemable warrants.units being offered.  The purchase price of each pre-funded unit is equal to the price per common unit being sold to the public in this offering, minus $0.001. The pre-funded warrants will be immediately exercisable and may be exercised at any time until all of the pre-funded warrants are exercised in full. We are offering the pre-funded units at an assumed public offering price of $7.499$4.379 per pre-funded unit based on an assumed initial offering price of $7.50$4.38 per common unit, the mid-point of the anticipated price range.unit.

The units have no stand-alone rights and will not be certificated or issued as stand-alone securities. The shares of our common stock or pre-funded warrants, as the case may be, and the redeemable warrants comprising our units can only be purchased together in this offering, but the securities included in the units are immediately separable and will be issued separately in this offering.

The redeemable warrants included within the common units and pre-funded units will be exercisable immediately, have an exercise price per share of common stock of $7.50 (equal to 100% of the public offering price of one common unit based on an assumed initial offering price of $7.50 per common unit, the mid-point of the anticipated price range),$4.00, and will expire five years from the date of issuance or when redeemed.

Our common stock is presently traded on the over-the-counter market and quoted on the OTCQB market under the symbol “IMCI.” We have applied to list our common stock and redeemable warrants on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbolsymbols “IMCI”. and “IMCIW,” respectively. No assurance can be given that our application will be approved. On April 29,September 14, 2022, the last reported sale price of our common stock was approximately $0.28$0.09 per share, without giving effect to the proposed reverse stock split. If our application is not approved or we otherwise determine that we will not be able to secure the listing of our common stock on Nasdaq, we will not complete this offering. There is no established public trading market for the redeemable warrants or pre-funded warrants, and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to apply for a listing of the redeemable warrants or pre-funded warrants on any national securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system.

The final offering price of the units will be determined between the underwriter and us at the time of pricing, considering our historical performance and capital structure, prevailing market conditions, and overall assessment of our business, and may be at a discount to the current market price. Therefore, the recent market price used throughout this prospectus may not be indicative of the actual public offering price for our units.

On December 15, 2021, our board of directors approved a reverse stock split of our outstanding shares of common stock by a ratio within the range of 3-to-1 and 75-to-1, to be effective at the ratio and date to be determined by our board of directors. Our stockholders approved the reverse stock split range at our annual meeting on January 26, 2022. Unless otherwise noted and other than in our financial statements and the notes thereto, the share and per share information in this prospectus reflects a proposed reverse stock split of the outstanding common stock and treasury stock of the Company at an assumed 27-to-150-to-1 ratio to occur immediately following the effective date but prior to the closing of the offering representing the mid-point of the anticipated reverse stock split range of 24-to-1 to 30-to-1.

Industry and Market Data

This prospectus contains estimates made, and other statistical data published, by independent parties and by us relating to market size and growth and other data about our industry. We obtained the industry and market data in this prospectus from our own research as well as from industry and general publications, surveys and studies conducted by third parties. This data involves a number of assumptions and limitations and contains projections and estimates of the future performance of the industries in which we operate that are inherently subject to a high degree of uncertainty and actual events or circumstances may differ materially from events and circumstances reflected in this information. We caution you not to give undue weight to such projections, assumptions and estimates. While we believe that these publications, studies and surveys are reliable, we have not independently verified the data contained in them. In addition, while we believe that the results and estimates from our internal research are reliable, such results and estimates have not been verified by any independent source.

RISK FACTORS

Any investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below and all information contained in this prospectus, before you decide whether to purchase our securities. If any of the following risks or uncertainties actually occurs, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects would likely suffer, possibly materially. In addition, the trading price of our common stock could decline due to any of these risks or uncertainties, and you may lose part or all of your investment.

Risks Related to our Business and Financial Condition

In the past, we have identified conditions and events that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern and it is possible that conditions and events in the future may negatively impact our ability to continue as a going concern.

As of December 31, 2021,June 30, 2022, we had a working capital deficit of approximately $3.1$4.4 million. We reported a net loss of approximately $1,569,000$1,701,000 for the twelvesix months ended December 31, 2021.June 30, 2022. We reported a stockholders’ deficiency of $4,097,889$5,387,542 as of December 31, 2021.June 30, 2022. We had net incomeloss of approximately $676,000 in 2020.$569,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2021. At December 31, 2020,2021, we had a stockholders’ deficiency of $3,105,770.$4,097,889. These factors initially raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern but this doubt has been alleviated.

During the third quarter of 2022, we entered into a loan agreement with an unrelated third party, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of $139,400. During the second quarter of 2022, we entered into two loan agreements with two unrelated third parties, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of $585,900. During the first quarter of 2022, we entered into a loan agreement with an unrelated third party, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of $333,000. During the fourth quarter of 2021, we engaged in multiple short term funding arrangements. We entered into three demand notes of $12,000 each with three related parties. On October 28, 2021, we entered into a promissory note of $150,000 with our Vice President of Business Development. Additionally, on November 3, 2021, we entered into a loan agreement with an unrelated third party, resulting in net proceeds to the Company of $403,200. We are exploring additional sources of financing, including debt and equity, and anticipate significant growth of business. These plans, in management’s opinion, will allow us to meet our obligations for at least the twelve-month period from the date the financial statements are available to be issued and alleviate the substantial doubt. However, we have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could exhaust our available capital resources sooner than we expect. In the future, if we are unable to obtain sufficient funding to support our operations, we could be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate all our research and development programs, product portfolio expansion or commercialization efforts, and our financial condition and results of operations will be materially and adversely affected, and we may be unable to continue as a going concern.

In the future, reports from our independent registered public accounting firm may also contain statements expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. If we seek additional financing to fund our business activities in the future and there remains substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, investors or other financing sources may be unwilling to provide additional funding to us on commercially reasonable terms or at all.

Our results of operations may be negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted, and is likely to continue to result, in significant economic disruption. It has already disrupted global travel and supply chains and adversely impacted global commercial activity. Considerable uncertainty still surrounds COVID-19 and its potential long-term economic effects, as well as the effectiveness of any responses taken by government authorities and businesses. The travel restrictions, limits on hours of operations and/or closures of non-essential businesses, and other efforts to curb the spread of COVID-19 has continued to disrupt business activity globally. New strains and variants of the coronavirus continue to spread around the world. The ongoing rollout of vaccines around the globe is encouraging, but their long-term impact on the political environment, business environment, and the Company is still uncertain.

During 2021,Effects of the COVID-19 pandemic that may negatively impact our managed supportbusiness in future periods include but are not limited to: limitations on the ability of our customers to conduct their business, purchase our products and services, and make timely payments; curtailed consumer spending; deferred purchasing decisions; delayed consulting services implementations; and decreases in cybersecurity projectsservices and software license revenues were minimally impacteddriven by the impactchannel partners. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, onindustry conventions and conferences that we anticipated participating in have been and continue to be canceled or altered. We believe this will negatively impact our customers’ operational priorities. 2022 results and has negatively impacted our ability to grow our business as quickly as we originally anticipated.

We are also continuing to adapt our operations to meet the challenges of this uncertain and rapidly evolving situation, including remote working arrangements for our employees, limiting non-essential business travel, and utilizing virtual sales and marketing events. Our sales and marketing expenses increased slightly during 2021, and we expect these expenses to grow slowly but we expect these expenses will be lower compared to prior year periods pre-COVID-19 pandemic on travel and in-person marketing events. We will continue to actively monitor the nature and extent of the impact to our business, operating results, and financial condition.

If we are unable to raise sufficient capital, we will be unable to fully fund our operations and to otherwise execute our business plan.

Until such time, if ever, that we can generate substantial revenues, we expect to finance our cash needs primarily through equity offerings and debt financings. Our ability to raise capital, whether through equity or through debt, is based, in part, on market events and conditions out of our control. We do not have any future committed source of external funds.

If we are unable to raise additional capital when needed, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce, or terminate our future product and service development or commercialization efforts.

Our efforts to commercialize our Nodeware solution may not be successful.

We have one patent granted and one patent pending relating to our Nodeware solution. The efforts we have taken to protect our intellectual property may not be sufficient or effective. Additionally, there is no guarantee that our Nodeware solution will perform as expected or as needed.

In order to protect our interest in Nodeware, we sell licenses permitting customers’ access. Licenses are protected through our EULA (end user licensing agreement), reseller/partner contracts, and through the cloud platform it resides in, enabling us to manage subscriptions, use and distribution of the platform. We face a risk of reputational harm and potential intellectual property theft if a licensee mistakenly or intentionally misuses our products. Licensing may also add an expense to our overall cost structure that is not supported by the market for like products.

If we do not successfully develop enhancements or new software, or scale our platform effectively, our operating results and our business may be harmed.

The cybersecurity market is characterized by rapid technological advances, customer price sensitivity, short product and service life cycles, intense competition, changes in customer requirements, frequent new product introductions and enhancements and evolving industry standards and regulatory mandates. Any of these factors could create downward pressure on pricing and gross margins, and could adversely affect our renewal rates, as well as our ability to attract new customers. Our future success will depend on our ability to enhance existing software, introduce new software on a timely and cost-effective basis, meet changing customer needs, integrate, and extend our core technology into new applications, and anticipate and respond to emerging cybersecurity threats. We must also continually change and improve our software and services in response to changes in operating systems, application software, computer and communications hardware, networking software, data center architectures, programming tools and computer language technology. In addition, our future growth depends upon our ability to continue to meet the expanding needs of our customers and to scale our software and services to meet these expanding needs and expanding customer base. As a result, we must continue to dedicate significant financial and other resources to our research and development efforts.

We may not be able to anticipate future market needs and opportunities, develop enhancements or new software to meet such needs or opportunities, or scale our platforms to maintain the performance of our software and services, in a timely manner or at all. To the extent that we do not successfully develop enhancements or new software, or scale our platform effectively, our operating results and our business may be harmed.

If we are unable to protect our intellectual property rights, our business could be harmed, or we could be required to incur significant expenses to enforce our rights.

We believe that our intellectual property is an asset that may contribute to the growth and profitability of our business. We rely on a combination of patented, patent-pending and confidentiality procedures, trademarks, and contractual provisions to establish and protect our intellectual property rights in the United States and abroad. We intend to rely on both registration and common law protection for our trademarks. Despite our efforts, the steps we have taken to protect our intellectual property rights may not be adequate to preclude misappropriation of our proprietary information or infringement of our intellectual property rights, and our ability to police such misappropriation or infringement is uncertain. Enforcing our intellectual property rights, if necessary, is difficult, time-consuming, resource-intensive, expensive, and uncertain. Litigation may become necessary and, if so, it may come at a substantial cost and cause diversion of management’s resources, which could harm our business.

We may need to defend against intellectual property infringement claims or misappropriation claims, which may be time-consuming, resource-intensive, and expensive.

Although we have not in the past been subject to claims that any of our products or services infringe intellectual property rights of a third-party, we could be subject to such claims in the future. It is possible that litigation could result. We do not know whether we will prevail in such proceedings given the highly complex, technical issues and inherent uncertainties in intellectual property litigation. Enforcing our intellectual property rights, if necessary, is difficult, time-consuming, resource-intensive, expensive, and uncertain.

If a challenge to our intellectual property rights results in an adverse outcome, then we could be required to stop the use of our products, services, or technology, pay damages for infringement, and expend resources developing products, services, or technology that are non-infringing.

We experience fluctuations in quarterly and annual operating results.

Our quarterly and annual operating results have fluctuated in the past and likely will fluctuate in the future. The demand for our products is driven largely by the demand for cybersecurity solutions. Accordingly, the cybersecurity industry is affected by market conditions that are often outside our control. Our results of operations may fluctuate significantly from period to period due to a number of factors, including general economic, industry and market conditions, the introduction or adoption of new technologies that compete with our software and services, the length and expense of our sales cycle for our software and services, the loss of a key customer and publicity regarding security breaches generally and the level of perceived threats to IT security. As a result of these factors and other risks discussed in this section, or the cumulative effect of some of these factors, may result in fluctuations in our operating results.

In addition, we recognize revenues from subscriptions over the term of the relevant service period, which is typically one year. As a result, most of our reported revenues in each quarter are derived from the recognition of deferred revenues relating to subscriptions entered into during previous quarters. Consequently, a shortfall in demand for our solutions in any period may not significantly reduce our revenues for that period, but could negatively affect revenues in future periods. Accordingly, the effect of significant downturns in bookings may not be fully reflected in our results of operations until future periods.

This variability and unpredictability could result in our failure to meet expectations with respect to operating results, or those of securities analysts or investors, for a particular period. If we fail to meet or exceed expectations for our operating results for these or any other reasons, the trading price of our common stock could fall and we could face costly lawsuits, including securities class action suits.

We do not maintain directors and officers liability insurance, which may subject us to significant exposure if one of our directors or officers is sued.

As of the date of this Registration Statement, we do not maintain directors and officers liability insurance. In addition to protecting the individual director or officer against personal losses, it can also cover the legal fees and costs an organization may incur as a result of the lawsuit.

If a legal action is commenced against one of our directors or officers, including, but not limited to, an action alleging a violation of securities law, we may incur the legal fees and costs associated with defending against the action, which may harm our business. In addition, a potential action could be time-consuming, resource-intensive, expensive, and uncertain.

We currently accrue a liability for a discontinued Simple IRA plan.

Through December 31, 2012, we offered a Simple (Savings Incentive Match Plan for Employees) IRA plan as a retirement plan for eligible employees and offered a voluntary match. We did not make all required voluntary matches prior to terminating the Simple IRA plan and we have accrued liability for the voluntary match portion of the Simple IRA plan, including interest, which was $275,422$280,958 as of December 31, 2021.June 30, 2022. There can be no assurance that the accrued liability amount will be sufficient to satisfy the Company’s potential liability.

We have used and may use our existing credit facility to finance our growth.

We have an accounts receivable credit facility with a financial institution, which enables us to sell accounts receivable to the financial institution with full recourse against us. The fee charged is prime plus 3.6% (effective rate of 6.85%8.35% at December 31, 2021)June 30, 2022) against the average daily outstanding balance of funds advanced. We also granted the financial institution a first priority interest in accounts receivable and a blanket lien. The fee charged is based, in part, on market events and conditions out of our control. The terms of the credit facility are subject to change.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company sold approximately $2,036,000 and $1,778,000, respectively, of our accounts receivable to the financial institution.

During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, we sold approximately $3,630,000 and $1,750,000, respectively, of our accounts receivable to the financial institution.

Because of the high relative cost, use of the credit facility, in the aggregate, may harm our business.

We rely on one customer for a large portion of our revenues.

We depend on one customer for a large portion of our revenue. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, sales to this customer, including sales under subcontracts for services to several entities, accounted for 65.5% of total sales (58.1% in 2021) and 20.7% of accounts receivable at June 30, 2022. Through the 12 months ending December 31, 2021, sales to this customer, including sales under subcontracts, accounted for 59.5% of total sales and 15.3% of accounts receivable. During 2020, sales to this customer, including sales under subcontracts, accounted for 61.2% of total sales and 38.8% of accounts receivable. The loss of this customer could have a significant impact on our revenues and harm our business and results of operations.

We rely on our channel partners to generate a substantial amount of our revenues, and if we fail to expand and manage our distribution channels, our revenues could decline and our growth prospects could suffer.

Our success significantly depends upon establishing and maintaining relationships with a variety of channel partners and we anticipate that we will continue to depend on these partners in order to grow our business.

For the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, approximately 93%89% of our business comes from our channel sales and approximately 7%11% from direct sales to end customers, and the percentage of revenues derived from channel partners may increase in future periods. Our agreements with our channel partners are generally non-exclusive and do not prohibit them from working with our competitors or offering competing solutions, and many of our channel partners have more established relationships with our competitors. If our channel partners choose to place greater emphasis on products of their own or those offered by our competitors, do not effectively market and sell our software and services, or fail to meet the needs of our customers, then our ability to grow our business and sell our software and services may be adversely affected. In addition, the loss of one or more of our larger channel partners, who may cease marketing our software and services with limited or no notice, and our possible inability to replace them, could adversely affect our sales. Moreover, our ability to expand our distribution channels depends in part on our ability to educate our channel partners about our software and services, which can be complex. Our failure to recruit additional channel partners, or any reduction or delay in their sales of our software and services or conflicts between channel sales and our direct sales and marketing activities may harm our results of operations. Even if we are successful, these relationships may not result in greater customer usage of our software and services or increased revenues.

In addition, the financial health of our channel partners and our continuing relationships with them are important to our success. Some of these channel partners may be unable to withstand adverse changes in economic conditions, which could result in insolvency and/or the inability of such distributors to obtain credit to finance purchases of our software and services. In addition, weakness in the end-user market could negatively affect the cash flows of our channel partners who could, in turn, delay paying their obligations to us, which would increase our credit risk exposure. Our business could be harmed if the financial condition of some of these channel partners substantially weakened and we were unable to timely secure replacement channel partners.

We are highly leveraged, which increases our operating deficit and makes it difficult for us to grow.

At June 30, 2022, we had current liabilities of approximately $5.3 million and long-term liabilities of $2.1 million and stockholders’ deficiency of $5,387,542. At June 30, 2022, we had a working capital deficit of approximately $4.4 million and a current ratio of 0.16. At December 31, 2021, we had current liabilities of approximately $4.1 million and long-term liabilities of $1.5 million and stockholders’ deficiency of $4,097,889. At December 31, 2021,2020, we had a working capital deficit of approximately $3.1 million and a current ratio of 0.25. At December 31, 2020, we had current liabilities of approximately $3.1 million and long-term liabilities of $1.6 million and stockholders’ deficiency of $3,105,770. At December 31, 2020, we had a working capital deficit of approximately $2.1 million and a current ratio of .35..25.

Working capital shortages may impair our business operations and growth strategy, and accordingly, our business, operations.

Potential acquisitions and expansions into new markets may result in significant transaction expense and expose us to risks associated with entering new markets and integrating new or acquired operations.

We may encounter risks associated with entering new markets in which we have limited or no experience. New operations require significant capital expenditures and may initially have a negative impact on our short-term cash flow, net income and results of operations and may not become profitable when projected or ever. In addition, our industry is highly fragmented and we expect to consider acquisition opportunities from time to time when we believe they would enhance our business and financial performance.

Acquisitions such as the Pratum Acquisition, may impose significant strains on our management, operating systems and financial resources, and could experience unanticipated integration issues. The pursuit and integration of acquisitions such as the Pratum Acquisition, may require substantial attention from our senior management, which will limit the amount of time they have available to devote to our existing operations. Our ability to realize the expected benefits from any future acquisitions such as the Pratum Acquisition, depends in large part on our ability to integrate and consolidate the new operations with our existing operations in a timely and effective manner. Future acquisitions such as the Pratum Acquisition, also could result in the incurrence of substantial amounts of indebtedness and contingent liabilities (including environmental, employee benefits and safety and health liabilities), accumulation of goodwill that may become impaired, an increase in amortization expenses related to intangible assets, and potential penalties or other break fees if such negotiated acquisitions are not consummated. Any significant diversion of management’s attention from our existing operations, the loss of key employees or customers of any acquired business, any major difficulties encountered in the integration of acquired operations or any associated increases in indebtedness, liabilities or expenses could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

We may not realize the anticipated synergies and cost savings from acquisitions.

We may grow our business by acquiring or investing in other companies and businesses and assets that we feel have synergy and will complement our business plan. As such, we periodically evaluate potential business combinations and investments in other companies and assets. We expect to realize significant synergies from the Pratum Acquisition. However, the integration of future acquisitions may not result in the realization of the full benefits of the revenue and cost synergies that we expected at the time or currently expect within the anticipated time frame or at all. Moreover, we may incur substantial expenses or unforeseen liabilities in connection with the integration of acquired businesses, including in connection with the Pratum Acquisition.businesses. While we anticipate that certain expenses will be incurred, such expenses are difficult to estimate accurately and may exceed our estimates. Accordingly, the expected benefits may be offset by costs or delays incurred in integrating the businesses. Failure of acquisitions to meet our expectations and be integrated successfully could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Our investments in cybersecurity and other business initiatives may not be successful.

We have invested in and continue to invest in cybersecurity capabilities to add new software and services to address the needs of our clients, including our newly introduced product, Nodeware. Our investments may not be successful or increase our revenues. If we are not successful in creating value from our investments by increasing sales, our financial condition and prospects could be harmed.

If we fail to adequately manage the size of our business, it could have a severe negative impact on our financial results or stock price.

Our management believes that to be successful we must appropriately manage the size of our business. This may mean reducing costs and overhead in certain economic periods, and selectively growing in periods of economic expansion. In addition, we will be required to implement operational, financial and management information procedures and controls that are efficient and appropriate for the size and scope of our operations. The management skills and systems currently in place may not be adequate and we may not be able to manage any significant reductions or growth effectively.

We may have difficulties in managing our growth.

Our future growth depends, in part, on our ability to expand, train and manage our employee base and provide support to an expanded client base. We must also enhance and implement new operating and software systems to accommodate our growth and expansion of IT product and service offerings. If we cannot manage growth effectively, it could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, business and financial condition. In addition, acquisitions, investments and expansion involve substantial infrastructure costs and working capital. We cannot provide assurance that we will be able to integrate acquisitions, if any, and expansions efficiently. Similarly, we cannot provide assurance that any investments or expansion will enhance our profitability. If we do not achieve sufficient sales growth to offset the increased expenses associated with our expansion, our results will be adversely affected.

We depend on the continued services of our key personnel.

Our future success depends, in part, on the continuing efforts of our senior executive officers. The loss of any of these key employees may materially adversely affect our business. We do not maintain key-person insurance for any member of our senior management team. From time to time, there may be changes in our senior management team resulting from the termination or departure of executives. Our senior management and key employees are generally employed on an at-will basis, which means that they could terminate their employment with us at any time. The loss of the services of our senior management or other key employees for any reason could significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our development and strategic objectives and harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our future success depends on our ability to continue to retain and attract qualified employees.

We believe that our future success depends upon our ability to continue to train, retain, effectively manage and attract highly skilled technical, managerial, sales and marketing personnel. This includes skills for our new initiatives in cybersecurity. Employee turnover is generally high in the IT services industry. If our efforts in these areas are not successful, our costs may increase, our sales efforts may be hindered, and the quality of our client service may suffer. Although we invest significant resources in recruiting and retaining employees, there is often significant competition for certain personnel in the IT services industry. From time to time, we experience difficulties in locating enough highly qualified candidates in desired geographic locations, or with required specific expertise.

We believe that our growth will depend, to a significant extent, on our success in recruiting and retaining a sufficient number of qualified sales personnel and their ability to obtain new customers, manage our existing customer base and expand the sales of our software and services. We plan to continue to expand our sales force and make a significant investment in our sales and marketing activities. Our recent hires and planned hires may not become as productive as quickly as we would like, and we may be unable to hire or retain sufficient numbers of qualified individuals in the future in the competitive markets where we do business. Competition for highly skilled personnel is frequently intense and we may not be able to compete for these employees. If we are unable to recruit and retain a sufficient number of productive sales personnel, sales of our software and services and the growth of our business may be harmed. Additionally, if our efforts do not result in increased revenues, our operating results could be negatively impacted due to the upfront operating expenses associated with expanding our sales force.

If we are required to collect higher sales and use or other taxes on the software and services we sell, we may be subject to liability for past sales and our future sales may decrease.

Taxing jurisdictions, including state and local entities, have differing rules and regulations governing sales and use or other taxes, and these rules and regulations are subject to varying interpretations that may change over time. In particular, the applicability of sales taxes to our SaaS solutions in various jurisdictions is unclear. It is possible that we could face sales tax audits and that our liability for these taxes could exceed our estimates as tax authorities could still assert that we are obligated to collect additional amounts as taxes from our customers and remit those taxes to those authorities. We could also be subject to audits with respect to state and international jurisdictions for which we may not accrued tax liabilities. A successful assertion that we should be collecting additional sales or other taxes on our services in jurisdictions where we have not historically done so and do not accrue for sales taxes could result in substantial tax liabilities for past sales, discourage customers from purchasing our software and services or otherwise harm our business and operating results.

Risks Related to our Industry

As a provider of cybersecurity software and services, we are subject to a heightened threat of cyberattacks intended to disrupt our internal operations or IT services provided to customers, and any such disruption could reduce our revenue, increase our expenses, damage our reputation.

We sell cybersecurity software and services, including third-party software as well as our internally developed software, Nodeware. As a result, we have been and will be a target of cyber-attacks designed to impede the performance of our products, penetrate our network security or the security of our cloud platform or our internal systems, or that of our customers, misappropriate proprietary information and/or cause interruptions to our services. Due to the significant military action against Ukraine launched by Russia, the risk of such cyber-attacks has increased.

For example, because Nodeware is a network vulnerability management solution, a successful cyber-attack on us may be perceived as a victory for the cyber attacker, thereby increasing the likelihood that we may be a target of more cyber-attacks, even absent financial motives. Further, if our systems are breached as a result of third-party action, employee error or misconduct, attackers could learn critical information about how our primary product operates to help protect our customers’ IT infrastructures from cyber risk, thereby making our customers more vulnerable to cyber-attacks. In addition, if actual or perceived breaches of our network security occur, they could adversely affect the market perception of our Nodeware solution, negatively affecting our reputation, and may expose us to the loss of our proprietary information or information belonging to our customers, investigations or litigation and possible liability, including injunctive relief and monetary damages. Such security breaches could also divert the efforts of our technical and management personnel. In addition, such security breaches could impair our ability to operate our business and provide products to our customers. If this happens, our reputation could be harmed, our revenue could decline, and our business could suffer.

Our information technology systems may be subject to intentional disruption or other security incidents that could result in liability and adversely impact our reputation and future sales.

We and our service providers face threats from a variety of sources, including attacks on our networks and systems from numerous sources, including traditional “hackers,” sophisticated nation-state and nation-state supported actors, other sources of malicious code (such as viruses and worms), and phishing attempts. We and our service providers could be a target of cyber-attacks or other malfeasance designed to impede the performance of our software and services, penetrate our network security or the security of our cloud platform or our internal systems, misappropriate proprietary information and/or cause interruptions to our services. Our software, platforms, and system, and those of our service providers, may also suffer security incidents as a result of non-technical issues, including intentional or inadvertent acts or omissions by our employees or service providers. With the increase in personnel working remotely during the current COVID-19 pandemic, we and our service providers are at increased risk for security breaches. Due to the significant military action against Ukraine launched by Russia, the risk of such cyber-attacks, malfeasance, security incidents, and security breaches has increased. The conditions caused by the Russian invasion of Ukraine could also result in disruption or other security incidents for our service providers.

We are taking steps to monitor and enhance the security of our software and services, cloud platform, and other relevant systems, IT infrastructure, networks, and data; however, the unprecedented scale of remote work may require additional personnel and resources, which nevertheless cannot be guaranteed to fully safeguard our software and services, our cloud platform, or any systems, IT infrastructure networks, or data upon which we rely. Further, because our operations involve providing cybersecurity software and services to our customers, we may be targeted for cyber-attacks and other security incidents. A breach in our data security or an attack against our service availability, or that of our third-party service providers, could impact our networks or networks secured by our software and services, creating system disruptions or slowdowns and exploiting security vulnerabilities of our software and services, and the information stored on our networks or those of our third-party service providers could be accessed, publicly disclosed, altered, lost, or stolen, which could subject us to liability and cause us financial harm. If an actual or perceived disruption in the availability of our software and services or the breach of our security measures or those of our service providers occurs, it could adversely affect the market perception of our software and services, result in a loss of competitive advantage, have a negative impact on our reputation, or result in the loss of customers, channel partners and sales, and it may expose us to the loss or alteration of information, litigation, regulatory actions and investigations and possible liability. Any such actual or perceived security breach or disruption could also divert the efforts of our technical and management personnel. We also may incur significant costs and operational consequences of investigating, remediating, eliminating and putting in place additional tools and devices designed to prevent actual or perceived security incidents, as well as the costs to comply with any notification obligations resulting from any security incidents. In addition, any such actual or perceived security breach could impair our ability to operate our business and provide software and services to our customers. If this happens, our reputation could be harmed, our revenues could decline and our business could suffer.

Although we maintain insurance coverage that may be applicable to certain liabilities in the event of a security breach or other security incident, we cannot be certain that our insurance coverage will be adequate for liabilities that actually are incurred, that insurance will continue to be available to us on economically reasonable terms, or at all, or that any insurer will not deny coverage as to any future claim. The successful assertion of one or more large claims against us that exceed available insurance coverage or the occurrence of changes in our insurance policies, including premium increases or the imposition of large deductible or co-insurance requirements, could have a material and adverse effect on our business, including our financial condition, operating results and reputation.

If our software and services fail to detect vulnerabilities or incorrectly detect vulnerabilities, our brand and reputation could be harmed, which could have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

If our software and services fail to detect vulnerabilities in our customers’ IT infrastructures, or if our software and services fail to identify and respond to new and increasingly complex methods of attacks, our business and reputation may suffer. There is no guarantee that our software and services will detect all vulnerabilities. Additionally, our cybersecurity software and services may falsely detect vulnerabilities or threats that do not actually exist. For example, some of our software and services rely on information on attack sources aggregated from third-party data providers who monitor global malicious activity originating from a variety of sources, including anonymous proxies, specific IP addresses, botnets and phishing sites. If the information from these data providers is inaccurate, the potential for false indications of security vulnerabilities increases. These false positives, while typical in the industry, may impair the perceived reliability or usability of our software and services and may therefore adversely impact market acceptance of our software and services and could result in negative publicity, loss of customers and sales, increased costs to remedy any incorrect information or problem, or claims by aggrieved parties. Similar issues may be generated by the misuse of our tools to identify and exploit vulnerabilities.

Further, our software and services sometimes are tested against other security products, and may fail to perform as effectively, or to be perceived as performing as effectively, as competitive products for any number of reasons, including misconfiguration. To the extent current or potential customers, channel partners, or others believe there has been an occurrence of an actual or perceived failure of our software and services to detect a vulnerability or otherwise to function as effectively as competitive products in any particular test or indicates our software and services do not provide significant value, our business, competitive position, and reputation could be harmed.

In addition, our software and services do not currently extend to cover mobile devices or personal devices that employees may bring into an organization. As such, our software and services would not identify or address vulnerabilities in mobile devices, such as mobile phones or tablets, or personal devices, and our customers’ IT infrastructures may be compromised by attacks that infiltrate their networks through such devices.

An actual or perceived security breach or theft of the sensitive data of one of our customers, regardless of whether the breach is attributable to the failure of our software and services, could adversely affect the market’s perception of our cybersecurity software and services.

If our solutions fail to help our customers achieve and maintain compliance with regulations and industry standards, our revenues and operating results could be harmed.

We generate a portion of our revenues from software and services that help organizations achieve and maintain compliance with regulations and industry standards. For example, some of our customers subscribe to our software and services to help them comply with the security standards developed and maintained by the Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council, or the PCI Council, which apply to companies that store cardholder data. Industry organizations like the PCI Council may significantly change their security standards with little or no notice, including changes that could make their standards more or less onerous for businesses. Governments may also adopt new laws or regulations, or make changes to existing laws or regulations, that could impact the demand for or value of our solutions.

If we are unable to adapt our software and services to changing regulatory standards in a timely manner, or if our solutions fail to assist with or expedite our customers’ compliance initiatives, our customers may lose confidence in our solutions and could switch to products offered by our competitors. In addition, if regulations and standards related to data security, vulnerability management and other IT, security and compliance requirements are relaxed or the penalties for non-compliance are changed in a manner that makes them less onerous, our customers may view government and industry regulatory compliance as less critical to their businesses, and our customers may be less willing to purchase our solutions. In any of these cases, our revenues and operating results could be harmed.

Our cybersecurity software and services are delivered from a third-party vendor, and any disruption of service at their facilities would interrupt or delay our ability to deliver our software and services to our customers which could reduce our revenues and harm our operating results.

Our existing data center facilities providers have no obligations to renew their agreements with us on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. If we are unable to renew our agreements with the facilities providers on commercially reasonable terms or if in the future we add additional data center facility providers, we may experience costs or downtime in connection with the loss of an existing facility or the transfer to, or addition of, new data center facilities.

Any disruptions or other performance problems with our software and services could harm our reputation and business and may damage our customers’ businesses. Interruptions in our service delivery might reduce our revenues, cause us to issue credits to customers, subject us to potential liability and cause customers to terminate their subscriptions or not renew their subscriptions.

If the market for cloud solutions for IT, security and compliance does not evolve as we anticipate, our revenues may not grow and our operating results would be harmed.

Our success depends to a significant extent on the willingness of organizations to increase their use of cloud solutions for their IT, security, and compliance. To date, some organizations have been reluctant to use cloud solutions because they have concerns regarding the risks associated with the reliability or security of the technology delivery model associated with these solutions. If other cloud service providers experience security incidents, loss of customer data, disruptions in service delivery or other problems, the market for cloud solutions as a whole, including our solutions, may be negatively impacted. Moreover, many organizations have invested substantial personnel and financial resources to integrate on-premise software into their businesses, and as a result may be reluctant or unwilling to migrate to a cloud solution, such as Nodeware. Organizations that use on-premise security products, such as network firewalls, security information and event management products or data loss prevention solutions, may also believe that these products sufficiently protect their IT infrastructure and deliver adequate security. Therefore, they may continue spending their IT security budgets on these products and may not adopt our software and services in addition to or as a replacement for such products.

If customers do not recognize the benefits of our cloud software and our services over traditional on-premise enterprise software products, and as a result we are unable to increase sales of subscriptions to our software and services, then our revenues may not grow or may decline, and our operating results would be harmed.

We use third-party software and data that may be difficult to replace or cause errors or failures of our software and services that could lead to lost customers or harm to our reputation and our operating results.

We license third-party software as well as security and compliance data from various third parties to deliver our software and services. In the future, this software or data may not be available to us on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. Any loss of the right to use any of this software or data could result in delays in the provisioning of our software and services until equivalent technology or data is either developed by us, or, if available, is identified, obtained and integrated, which could harm our business. In addition, any errors or defects in or failures of this third-party software or data could result in errors or defects in our software and services or cause our software and services to fail, which could harm our business and be costly to correct. Many of these providers attempt to impose limitations on their liability for such errors, defects or failures, and if enforceable, we may have additional liability to our customers or third-party providers that could harm our reputation and increase our operating costs.

We will need to maintain our relationships with third-party software and data providers, and to obtain software and data from such providers that do not contain any errors or defects. Any failure to do so could adversely impact our ability to deliver effective solutions to our customers and could harm our operating results.

Our software contains third-party open source software components, and our failure to comply with the terms of the underlying open source software licenses could restrict our ability to sell our software and services.

Our software contains software licensed to us by third-parties under so-called “open source” licenses, including the GNU General Public License, the GNU Lesser General Public License, the BSD License, the Apache License and others. From time to time, there have been claims against companies that distribute or use open source software in their products and services, asserting that such open source software infringes the claimants’ intellectual property rights. We could be subject to suits by parties claiming that what we believe to be licensed open source software infringes their intellectual property rights. Use and distribution of open source software may entail greater risks than use of third-party commercial software, as open source licensors generally do not provide warranties or other contractual protections regarding infringement claims or the quality of the code. In addition, certain open source licenses require that source code for software programs that are subject to the license be made available to the public and that any modifications or derivative works to such open source software continue to be licensed under the same terms. If we combine our proprietary software with open source software in certain ways, we could, in some circumstances, be required to release the source code of our proprietary software to the public. Disclosing the source code of our proprietary software could make it easier for cyber attackers and other third parties to discover vulnerabilities in or to defeat the protections of our solutions, which could result in our solutions failing to provide our customers with the security they expect from our services. This could harm our business and reputation. Disclosing our proprietary source code also could allow our competitors to create similar products with lower development effort and time and ultimately could result in a loss of sales for us. Any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

Our software and services could be used to collect and store personal information of our customers’ employees or customers, and therefore privacy and other data handling concerns could result in additional cost and liability to us or inhibit sales of our software and services.

We may collect, store, process and use our customers’ employees or customers personally identifiable information and other data in our transactions with them, and we may rely on third parties that are not directly under our control to do so as well. While we take reasonable measures intended to protect the security, integrity and confidentiality of the personal information and other sensitive information we collect, store or transmit, we cannot guarantee that inadvertent or unauthorized use or disclosure will not occur, or that third parties will not gain unauthorized access to this information. If we or our third-party service providers were to experience a breach, disruption or failure of systems compromising our customers’ data, or if one of our third-party service providers or partners were to access our customers’ personal data without our authorization, our brand and reputation could be adversely affected, use of our software and services could decrease and we could be exposed to a risk of loss, litigation and regulatory proceedings.

Despite our compliance efforts, we may fail to achieve compliance with applicable privacy or data protection laws and regulations as they evolve, or adhere to contractual obligations regarding the collection, processing, storage and transfer of data (including data from our customers, prospective customers, partners and employees), either due to internal or external factors such as resource limitations or a lack of vendor cooperation. Any actual or perceived failure to comply with these laws or obligations could result in enforcement action against us, including fines, claims for damages by customers and other affected individuals, damage to our reputation and loss of goodwill (both in relation to any existing customers and prospective customers), any of which could harm our business, results of operations, and financial condition. Further, privacy concerns may inhibit market adoption of our software and services, particularly in certain industries and foreign countries.

We depend on prime contracts or subcontracts with the federal, state, and local governments for a substantial portion of our sales, and our business would be seriously harmed if the government ceased doing business with us or our prime contractors or significantly decreased the amount of business it does with us or our prime contractors.

We derived approximately 59% of our sales in 2021 and 61% of our sales in 2020 from contracts as either a prime contractor or a subcontractor from government contracts. We expect that we will continue to derive a substantial portion of our sales for the foreseeable future from work performed under government contracts, as we have in the past, and from marketing efforts focused on commercial enterprises. If we or our prime contractors were suspended or prohibited from contracting with federal, state or local governments, or if our reputation or relationship with the federal, state or local governments and commercial enterprises were impaired, or if any of the foregoing otherwise ceased doing business with us or our prime contractors or significantly decreased the amount of business it does with us or our prime contractors, our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results would be materially adversely affected.

We operate in a highly competitive environment and, as a result, we may not be able to compete effectively or maintain or increase our sales.

We operate in a highly competitive environment with numerous competitors, some of which have greater resources or better brand recognition than we do. This competitive environment subjects us to various risks, including the ability to provide our software and services at competitive prices that allow us to maintain our profitability. Because of this competitive environment, we may have limited ability to increase prices in response to increased costs without losing competitive position which may adversely affect our margins and financial performance. In addition, price reductions by our competitors may result in the reduction of our prices and a corresponding reduction in our profitability. As a result, we may face periods of intense competition in the future, which could have a material adverse effect on our profitability and results of operations.

Our sales cycle can be long and unpredictable, and our sales efforts require considerable time and expense. As a result, revenues may vary from period to period, which may cause our operating results to fluctuate and could harm our business.

The timing of sales of our software and services can be difficult to forecast because of the length and unpredictability of our sales cycle, particularly with large transactions. We sell our cybersecurity software and services primarily to IT departments that are managing a growing set of user and compliance demands, which has increased the complexity of customer requirements to be met and confirmed during the sales cycle and prolonged our sales cycle. Further, the length of time that potential customers devote to their testing and evaluation, contract negotiation and budgeting processes varies significantly, which has also made our sales cycle long and unpredictable. The length of the sales cycle for our software and services typically ranges from six to twelve months but can be more than eighteen months. In addition, we might devote substantial time and effort to a particular unsuccessful sales effort, and as a result we could lose other sales opportunities or incur expenses that are not offset by an increase in revenues, which could harm our business.

Our business could be adversely affected by changes in budgetary priorities of the federal, state and local governments.

Because we derive a significant portion of our sales from contracts with federal, state and local governments, we believe that the success and development of our business will continue to depend on our successful participation in their contract programs. Changes in federal, state and local government budgetary priorities could directly affect our financial performance. A significant decline in government expenditures, a shift of expenditures away from programs which call for the types of services that we provide or a change in government contracting policies, could cause U.S. Governmental agencies as well as state and local governments to reduce their expenditures under contracts, to exercise their right to terminate contracts at any time without penalty, not to exercise options to renew contracts or to delay or not originate new contracts. Any of those actions could seriously harm our business, prospects, financial condition or operating results. Moreover, although our contracts with governmental entities may contemplate that our services will be performed over a period of several years, government entities usually must approve funds for a given program each government fiscal year and may significantly reduce or eliminate funding for a program. Significant reductions in these appropriations could have a material adverse effect on our business. Additional factors that could have a serious adverse effect on our government contracting business include, but may not be limited to:

We rely on software-as-a-service vendors to operate certain functions of our business and any failure of such vendors to provide services to us could adversely impact our business and operations.

We rely on third-party software-as-a-service vendors to operate certain critical functions of our business, including financial management and human resource management. If these services become unavailable due to extended outages or interruptions or because they are no longer available on commercially reasonable terms or prices, our expenses could increase, our ability to manage our finances could be interrupted and our processes for managing sales of our solutions and supporting our customers could be impaired until equivalent services, if available, are identified, obtained and integrated, all of which could harm our business.

Risks Relating to our Common Stock and to this Offering

Upon exercise of our outstanding options or warrants and conversion of our convertible notes we will be obligated to issue a substantial number of additional shares of common stock which will dilute our present stockholders. 

We are obligated to issue additional shares of our common stock in connection with our outstanding options, warrants, and convertible notes. As of April 29,September 6, 2022, there were options, warrants, convertible notes outstanding, convertible into 396,852, 75,691200,050, 60,953 and 384,072208,717 shares of common stock, respectively, at prices ranging from $0.54$1.00 to $6.75$12.25 per share. The exercise, conversion or exchange of warrants or convertible securities, including for other securities, will cause us to issue additional shares of our common stock and will dilute the percentage ownership of our stockholders. In addition, we have in the past, and may in the future, exchange outstanding securities for other securities on terms that are dilutive to the securities held by other stockholders not participating in such exchange.

There is no assurance that once listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market we will not continue to experience volatility in our share price.

The OTCQB, where our common stock is currently quoted, is an inter-dealer, over-the-counter market that provides significantly less liquidity than the Nasdaq Capital Market. Our stock is thinly traded due to the limited number of shares available for trading on the OTCQB Venture Market thus causing large swings in price. As such, investors and potential investors may find it difficult to obtain accurate stock price quotations, and holders of our common stock may be unable to resell their securities at or near their original offering price or at any price. Our public offering price per common unit may vary from the market price of our common stock after the offering. If an active market for our stock develops and continues, our stock price may nevertheless be volatile. If our stock experiences volatility, investors may not be able to sell their common stock at or above the public offering price per common unit. Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock, or the perception that such sales might occur, could adversely affect prevailing market prices of our common stock and our stock price may decline substantially in a short period of time. As a result, our stockholders could suffer losses or be unable to liquidate their holdings. No assurance can be given that the price of our common stock will become less volatile when listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

Any of the following factors could affect the market price of our common stock:

In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been instituted. A securities class action suit against us could result in substantial costs and divert our management’s time and attention, which would otherwise be used to benefit our business.

Concentration of ownership among our existing executive officers, directors and holders of 10% or more of our outstanding common stock may prevent new investors from influencing significant corporate decisions.

As of April 29,September 6, 2022, our executive officers and directors beneficially owned, in the aggregate, approximately 30.1%30% of our outstanding common stock. In addition, there are a number of holders of 10% or more of our outstanding common who are not our officers and directors. As a result, such persons, acting together, have significant ability to control our management and affairs and substantially all matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including the election and removal of directors and approval of any significant transaction. This concentration of ownership may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control, impeding a merger, consolidation, takeover or other business combination involving us, or discouraging a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of our business, even if such a transaction would benefit other stockholders.

Offers or availability for sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock may cause the price of our common stock to decline.

Sales of large blocks of our common stock over a short time last fall could have a significant adverse effect on our common stock price. If our existing stockholders and investors seek to sell a substantial number of shares of our common stock, such selling efforts may cause significant declines in the market price of our common stock. The existence of an overhang, which is the potential dilution in the value of our common stock due to outstanding convertible notes, warrants and stock options, whether or not sales have occurred or are occurring, also could make our ability to raise additional financing through the sale of equity or equity-linked securities more difficult in the future at a time and price that we deem reasonable or appropriate. If our existing stockholders and investors seek to sell a substantial number of shares of our common stock, such selling efforts may cause significant declines in the market price of our common stock.

Our common stock may be affected by limited trading volume and price fluctuations, which could adversely impact the value of our common stock.

Our common stock has experienced, and is likely to experience in the future, significant price and volume fluctuations, which could adversely affect the market price of our common stock without regard to our operating performance. In addition, we believe that factors such as quarterly fluctuations in our financial results and changes in the overall economy or the condition of the financial markets could cause the price of our common stock to fluctuate substantially. These fluctuations may also cause short sellers to periodically enter the market in the belief that we will have poor results in the future. We cannot predict the actions of market participants and, therefore, can offer no assurances that the market for our common stock will be stable or appreciate over time.

Because we do not intend to pay cash dividends on our shares of common stock, any returns will be limited to the value of our shares.

We currently anticipate that we will retain future earnings for the development, operation and expansion of our business and do not anticipate declaring or paying any cash dividends for the foreseeable future. Any return to stockholders will therefore be limited to the increase, if any, of our share price.

If securities analysts do not publish or cease publishing research or reports or publish misleading, inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business or if they publish negative evaluations of our stock, the price and trading volume of our stock could decline.

The trading market for our common stock will rely, in part, on the research and reports that industry or financial analysts publish about us or our business. We do not currently have, and may never obtain, research coverage by industry or financial analysts. If no, or few, analysts commence coverage of us, the trading price of our stock would likely decrease. Even if we do obtain analyst coverage, if one or more of the analysts covering our business downgrade their evaluations of our stock or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, or provide more favorable relative recommendations about our competitors, the price of our stock could decline. If one or more of these analysts cease to cover our stock, we could lose visibility in the market for our stock, which in turn could cause our stock price and trading volume to decline.

Risks Related to this Offering and our Reverse Stock Split

Investors in this offering will experience immediate and substantial dilution in net tangible book value.

The public offering price will be substantially higher than the net tangible book value per share of our outstanding shares of common stock. As a result, investors in this offering will incur immediate dilution of $4.74$2.52 per share based on the assumed public offering price of $7.50$4.38 per share of common stock, the mid-point of the estimated offering price range described on the cover of this prospectus.stock. Investors in this offering will pay a price per share that substantially exceeds the book value of our assets after subtracting our liabilities.

We have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds from this offering and may not use them effectively.

Our management will have broad discretion over the use of proceeds from this offering. We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for our acquisition of Pratum, marketing and sales, development costs, repayment of debt, working capital, among other things. Our management will have considerable discretion in the application of the net proceeds, and you will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the proceeds are being used appropriately. The net proceeds may be used for corporate purposes that do not improve our operating results or enhance the value of our securities.

Our expected use of net proceeds from this offering represents our current intentions based upon our present plans and business condition. As of the date of this prospectus, we cannot predict with certainty all of the particular uses for the net proceeds to be received upon the completion of this offering. The amounts and timing of our actual use of the net proceeds will vary depending on numerous factors, including amount of cash used in our operations, which can be highly uncertain, subject to substantial risks and can often change. Our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds, and investors will be relying on our judgment regarding the application of the net proceeds of this offering.

The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could harm our business. Pending their use, we may invest the net proceeds from this offering in short-term, investment-grade, interest-bearing securities. These investments may not yield a favorable return to our stockholders. If we do not invest or apply the net proceeds from this offering in ways that enhance stockholder value, we may fail to achieve expected financial results, which could cause our stock price to decline.

Warrants The redeemable warrantsare speculative in nature.

The redeemable warrants offered in this offering do not confer any rights of common stock ownership on their holders, such as voting rights or the right to receive dividends, but rather merely represent the right to acquire shares of our common stock at a fixed price for a limited period of time. Specifically, commencing on the date of issuance, holders of the redeemable warrants may exercise their right to acquire the common stock and pay an exercise price of $7.50$4.00 per share, (equal to 100% of the public offering price of one common unit based on an assumed initial offering price of $7.50 per common unit, the mid-point of the anticipated price range), prior to five years from the date of issuance, after which date any unexercised redeemable warrants will expire and have no further value. We may also redeem the redeemable warrants under certain circumstances. In addition, there is no established trading market for the warrants and we do not expect a market to develop.

TheThere is no established market for the redeemable warrants andto purchase shares of our common stock being offered in this offering.

There is no established trading market for the redeemable warrants. Although we have applied to list the warrants on the Nasdaq Capital Market there can be no assurance that there will be an active trading market for the redeemable warrants. Without an active trading market, the liquidity of the redeemable warrants will be limited.

The pre-funded warrants will not be listed or quoted on any exchange.

There is no established public trading market for the redeemable warrants or the pre-funded warrants being offered in this offering, and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to apply to list the redeemable warrants or the pre-funded warrants on any national securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system, including Nasdaq. Without an active market, the liquidity of the redeemable warrants and pre-funded warrants will be limited.

Except as otherwise provided in the redeemable warrants and pre-funded warrants, holders of redeemable warrants and pre-funded warrants purchased in this offering will have no rights as stockholders until such holders exercise their redeemable warrants or pre-funded warrants and acquire our common stock.

Except as otherwise provided in the redeemable warrants and pre-funded warrants, until holders of redeemable warrants or pre-funded warrants acquire our common stock upon exercise of the redeemable warrants or pre-funded warrants, holders of redeemable warrants and pre-funded warrants will have no rights with respect to our common stock underlying such redeemable warrants and pre-funded warrants. Upon exercise of the redeemable warrants and pre-funded warrants, the holders will be entitled to exercise the rights of a holder of our common stock only as to matters for which the record date occurs after the exercise date.

Provisions of the redeemable warrants offered by this prospectus could discourage an acquisition of us by a third party.

In addition to the discussion of the provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, and our Amended and Restated Bylaws, certain provisions of the redeemable warrants offered by this prospectus could make it more difficult or expensive for a third party to acquire us. The redeemable warrants prohibit us from engaging in certain transactions constituting “fundamental transactions” unless, among other things, the surviving entity assumes our obligations under the redeemable warrants. These and other provisions of the redeemable warrants offered by this prospectus could prevent or deter a third party from acquiring us even where the acquisition could be beneficial to you. 

The reverse stock split may decrease the liquidity of the shares of our common stock.

The liquidity of the shares of our common stock may be affected adversely by the reverse stock split given the reduced number of shares that will be outstanding following the reverse stock split, especially if the market price of our common stock does not increase as a result of the reverse stock split. In addition, the reverse stock split may increase the number of stockholders who own odd lots (less than 100 shares) of our common stock, creating the potential for such stockholders to experience an increase in the cost of selling their shares and greater difficulty effecting such sales.

Even if the reverse stock split achieves the requisite increase in the market price of our common stock, we cannot assure you that we will be able to continue to comply with the minimum bid price requirement of Nasdaq.

Even if the reverse stock split achieves the requisite increase in the market price of our common stock to be in compliance with the minimum bid price of the Nasdaq, there can be no assurance that the market price of our common stock following the reverse stock split will remain at the level required for continuing compliance with that requirement. It is not uncommon for the market price of a company’s common stock to decline in the period following a reverse stock split. If the market price of our common stock declines following the effectuation of the reverse stock split, the percentage decline may be greater than would occur in the absence of a reverse stock split. In any event, other factors unrelated to the number of shares of our common stock outstanding, including negative financial or operational results, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock and jeopardize our ability to meet or maintain the Nasdaq’s minimum bid price requirement.

Even if the reverse stock split increases the market price of our common stock and we meet the initial listing requirements of the Nasdaq, there can be no assurance that we will be able to comply with the continued listing standards of Nasdaq.

Nasdaq requires that the trading price of its listed stocks remain above one dollar in order for the stock to remain listed. If a listed stock trades below one dollar for more than 30 consecutive trading days, then it is subject to delisting from Nasdaq. In addition, to maintain a listing on Nasdaq, we must satisfy minimum financial and other continued listing requirements and standards, including those regarding director independence and independent committee requirements, minimum stockholders’ equity, and certain corporate governance requirements. If we are unable to satisfy these requirements or standards, we could be subject to delisting, which would have a negative effect on the price of our common stock and would impair your ability to sell or purchase our common stock when you wish to do so. In the event of a delisting, we would expect to take actions to restore our compliance with the listing requirements, but we can provide no assurance that any such action taken by us would allow our common stock to become listed again, stabilize the market price or improve the liquidity of our common stock, prevent our common stock from dropping below the minimum bid price requirement, or prevent future non-compliance with the listing requirements.

Even if we meet the initial listing requirements of Nasdaq, there can be no assurance that we will be able to comply with the continued listing standards of Nasdaq.

Nasdaq has a number of continued listing standards that we will be required to comply with in order to maintain a listing of our common stock on Nasdaq. Even if we meet the initial listing requirements of Nasdaq, we cannot assure you that we will be able to comply with the other standards that we are required to meet in order to maintain a listing of our common stock on Nasdaq. If after listing we fail to satisfy the continued listing requirements of Nasdaq, such as the corporate governance requirements or the minimum stockholder’s equity requirement, Nasdaq may take steps to de-list our common stock. Such a de-listing would likely have a negative effect on the price of our common stock and would impair our stockholders’ ability to sell or purchase our common stock when they wish to do so. In the event of a de-listing, we would take actions to restore our compliance with Nasdaq’s listing requirements, but we can provide no assurance that any action taken by us would result in our common stock becoming listed again, or that any such action would stabilize the market price or improve the liquidity of our common stock.

Risks Relating to our Proposed Acquisition of Pratum

If we fail to raise sufficient net proceeds from this offering to fund the acquisition of Pratum, and cannot obtain alternative sources of financing, we will be unable to consummate the acquisition of Pratum.

If we are unable to raise sufficient funds from this offering, we will need to seek alternative sources of financing to fund the Pratum Acquisition. We may not be able to obtain alternative sources of financing sufficient to fund the Pratum Acquisition on terms acceptable to us, if at all. If we are unable to obtain sufficient financing, we will be unable to consummate the Pratum Acquisition. In such event, we may terminate the stock purchase agreement with Pratum and its related parties, pursuant to its terms. See “Our Business-Proposed Acquisition of Pratum.”

Cash expenditures associated with the Pratum Acquisition may create significant liquidity and cash flow risks for us.

We expect to incur significant transaction costs and some integration costs in connection with the Pratum Acquisition. While we have assumed that this level of expense will be incurred, there are many factors beyond our control that could affect the total amount or the timing of the Pratum Acquisition and integration expenses. Moreover, many of the expenses that will be incurred are, by their nature, difficult to estimate accurately. To the extent these Pratum Acquisition and integration expenses are higher than anticipated, we may experience liquidity or cash flow issues.

Failure to complete the acquisition of Pratum could materially and adversely affect our results of operations and the market price of our Common Stock.

Our consummation of the Pratum Acquisition is subject to many contingences and conditions, including raising the financing required to pay the acquisition consideration. We cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully consummate the Pratum Acquisition of Pratum as currently contemplated or at all. Risks related to the failure of the Pratum Acquisition to be consummated include, but are not limited to, the following:

The occurrence of any of these events, individually or in combination, could materially and adversely affect our results of operations and the market price of our Common Stock.

If the Pratum Acquisition is consummated, Pratum may not perform as we or the market expects, which could have an adverse effect on the price of our Common Stock.

Even if the Pratum Acquisition is consummated, the combined company may not perform as we or the market expects. Risks associated with the combined company following the Pratum Acquisition include:

The obligations and liabilities of Pratum, some of which may be unanticipated or unknown, may be greater than we have anticipated, which may diminish the value of Pratum to us.

Pratum’s obligations and liabilities, some of which may not have been disclosed to us or may not be reflected or reserved for in Pratum’s historical financial statements, may be greater than we have anticipated. The obligations and liabilities of Pratum could have a material adverse effect on Pratum’s business or Pratum’s value to us or on our business, financial condition, or results of operations. Even in cases where we are able to obtain indemnification, we may discover liabilities greater than the contractual limits or the financial resources of the indemnifying party. In the event that we are responsible for liabilities substantially in excess of any amounts recovered through rights to indemnification or alternative remedies that might be available to us, or any applicable insurance, we could suffer severe consequences that would substantially reduce our earnings and cash flows or otherwise materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, or results of operations.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We estimate that the net proceeds to us from this offering will be approximately $13,370,000$13,549,600 after deducting estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us.

We currently estimate that we will use the net proceeds from this offering, together with our existing cash and cash equivalents, as follows:

On January 31, 2022, we entered into an agreement to acquire the issued and outstanding equity securities of Pratum for an aggregate purchase price of $8,500,000, subject to customary purchase price adjustments for, among other things, indebtedness of Pratum as of the closing. We anticipate that the transaction will close promptly following the closing of this offering. See “Proposed Acquisition of Pratum” for more information. This offering is not conditioned upon the consummation of the Pratum Acquisition. If the Pratum Acquisition is not consummated, we intend to use the proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes.

Our expected use of net proceeds from this offering and our existing cash and cash equivalents represents our intentions based upon our current plans and business conditions, which could change in the future as our plans and business conditions evolve. As a result, we cannot predict with any certainty our use of the net proceeds from this offering or the amounts that we will actually spend on each area of use set forth above. Our management will retain broad discretion over the allocation of the net proceeds from this offering. Accordingly, we will have discretion in the application of the net proceeds, and investors will be relying on our judgment regarding the application of the proceeds of this offering.

Pending our use of the net proceeds from this offering, we intend to invest the net proceeds in a variety of capital preservation investments, including short-term, investment-grade, interest-bearing instruments and U.S. government securities. We anticipate that the proceeds from this offering will enable us to become cash flow from operations positive.

CAPITALIZATION

The following table sets forth our capitalization as of December 31, 2021:June 30, 2022:

The as-adjusted information below is illustrative only, and our capitalization following the closing of this offering will be adjusted based on the actual public offering price and other terms of this offering determined at pricing. You should consider this table in conjunction with “Use of Proceeds” above as well as our “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of the Company,”Company” and our financial statements and the notes to those financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 included elsewhere in this prospectus, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of Pratum,” Pratum’s financial statements and the related notes appearing elsewhere in this prospectus and “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements.”prospectus.

A 50% increase (decrease) in the assumed public offering price of $7.50$4.38 per common unit would increase (decrease) cash and cash equivalents, working capital, total assets, and total stockholders’ (deficit) equity by approximately $6.9$7.1 million, assuming that the number of common units offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same, after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions.

The above discussion and table are based on 1,211,1444,171,222 shares outstanding as of December 31, 2021June 30, 2022 after giving effect to our planned reverse stock split at an assumed 27-to-150-to-1 ratio. The discussion and table do not include, as of that date:

DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE

The offering price of the common units has been negotiated between the underwriter and us considering our historical performance and capital structure, prevailing market conditions, and overall assessment of our business.

MARKET FOR OUR COMMON STOCK AND REDEEMABLE WARRANTS

Our common stock is presently traded on the over-the-counter market and quoted on the OTCQB market under the symbol “IMCI.” We have applied to list our common stock and redeemable warrants on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbolsymbols “IMCI”. and “IMCIW,” respectively. No assurance can be given that our application will be approved. On April 29,September 14, 2022, the last reported sale price of our common stock was approximately $0.28$0.09 per share, without giving effect to the proposed reverse stock split. If our application is not approved or we otherwise determine that we will not be able to secure the listing of our common stock on Nasdaq, we will not complete this offering. There is no established public trading market for the redeemable warrants or pre-funded warrants, and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to apply for a listing of the redeemable warrants or pre-funded warrants on any national securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system.

Dividend Policy

We have never declared or paid a cash dividend on our common stock and we currently anticipate that we will retain future earnings for the development, operations and expansion of our business and do not anticipate declaring or paying any cash dividends for the foreseeable future. The payment of cash dividends in the future will be dependent upon our earnings and financial requirements and other factors deemed relevant by our Board.

Holders

At April 29,September 6, 2022, we had 210206 record stockholders and estimate that we had approximately 1,200 beneficial stockholders.

DILUTION

If you invest in our common units in this offering, your interest will be diluted to the extent of the difference between the assumed public offering price per share of common stock that is part of the common unit (without assigning any value to the redeemable warrants, and assuming the exercise of any pre-funded warrants sold in this offering) and the as adjusted net tangible book value per share of common stock immediately after this offering.

Our net tangible book value is the amount of our total tangible assets less our total liabilities. Our net tangible book value as of December 31, 2021June 30, 2022 was $(4,515,539)$(5,808,766), or $(3.73)$(8.65) per share of common stock.

As adjusted net tangible book value is our net tangible book value after taking into account the issuance and sale by us of 2,000,000 common3,500,000 units in this offering (assuming the exercise of any pre-funded warrants sold in the offering, and without assigning any value to the redeemable warrants) at the assumed public offering price of $7.50$4.38 per common unit, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us and the receipt by us of the proceeds of such sale. Our as adjusted net tangible book value as of December 31, 2021June 30, 2022 would have been approximately $8,854,461,$7,741,000 or $2.76$1.86 per share. This amount represents an immediate increase in as adjusted net tangible book value of approximately $6.49$10.51 per share to our existing stockholders, and an immediate dilution of $4.74$2.52 per share to new investors participating in this offering. Dilution per share to new investors is determined by subtracting as adjusted net tangible book value per share after this offering from the public offering price per share paid by new investors.

The following table illustrates this per share dilution:

A 50% increase (decrease) in the assumed public offering price of $7.50$4.38 per common unit would increase (decrease) the as adjusted net tangible book value per share by $8.63$12.20 ($4.34)8.82), and the dilution per share to new investors in this offering by $6.34$3.02 ($3.14)2.02), assuming the number of common units offered by us, as set forth on the cover page of this prospectus, remains the same and after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us.

The information above assumes that the underwriter does not exercise its over-allotment option. If the underwriter exercises its over-allotment option in full, the as adjusted net tangible book value will increase to $3.11$2.10 per share, representing an immediate increase to existing stockholders of $6.84$10.75 per share and an immediate dilution of $4.39$2.28 per share to new investors.

The foregoing discussion and table do not take into account further dilution to new investors that could occur upon the exercise of outstanding warrants having a per share exercise or conversion price less than the per share offering price to the public in this offering.

We may choose to raise additional capital due to market conditions or strategic considerations even if we believe we have sufficient funds for our current or future operating plans. To the extent that additional capital is raised through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of these securities could result in further dilution to our stockholders.

The above discussion and table are based on 1,211,144671,223 shares outstanding as of December 31, 2021June 30, 2022 after giving effect to our planned reverse stock split at an assumed 27-to-150-to-1 ratio. The discussion and table do not include, as of that date:

OUR BUSINESS

Overview of Infinite Group

Headquartered in Pittsford, New York, Infinite Group is a developer of cybersecurity software and related cybersecurity consulting, advisory, and managed information security services. We principally sell our software and services through indirect channels such as Managed Service Providers (“MSPs”), Managed Security Services Providers (“MSSPs”), agents and distributors and government contractors, whom we refer to collectively as our channel partners. We also sell directly to end customers.

We believe our ability to succeed depends on how successful we are in differentiating ourselves in the cybersecurity market at a time when competition and consolidation in these markets are on the rise. Our strategy to differentiate our cybersecurity software and services from our competitors is to combine customized software and professional services, and grow our business by designing, developing, and marketing cybersecurity software-as-a-service (“SaaS”) solutions that can be deployed in myriad environments. Software and services are initially developed in our wholly-owned subsidiary, IGI CyberLabs (“CyberLabs”), to fill technology gaps we identify, and then we bring these software and services to market through our existing channel partner and customer relationships. Our software and services are designed to simplify and manage the security needs of our customers and channel partners in a variety of environments. We focus on the small and medium-sized enterprises market. We support our channel partners by providing recurring-revenue business models for both services and through our cybersecurity SaaS solutions. Products may be sold as standalone solutions or integrated into existing environments to further automate the management of cybersecurity and related IT functions.

As part of these software and service offerings we:

Sales and Marketing Strategy

ApproximatelyDuring 2021, approximately 89% of our business comes from our channel sales and approximately 11% from direct sales to end customers. Managed support services accounts for approximately 60% of total sales, cybersecurity software and services accounts for approximate 38% of total sales and other consulting services accounts for approximately 2% of total sales.

Virtually all managed information security support services revenue is derived from one customer, a major independent agency of the U.S. Government for which we manage one of the nation’s largest physical and virtual Microsoft Windows environments as a subcontractor through our channel partner, Peraton. We are working to expand our managed information security support services business with our channel partner Peraton, and to potentially grow the current federal enterprise customer and to expand to other Peraton customers.

We sell our cybersecurity software and services, including Nodeware, through our channel partners, which include direct channel partners, Telarus, TD SYNNEX, and Staples, and through our direct cybersecurity services teams. Our cybersecurity services include Chief Information Security Team as a Service (CISOTaaS ™), PenLogic™ penetration testing services, security assessments, incident response and others, and are provided through our channel partners and direct to end customers as a cybersecurity solution to the technical services they provide. Our channel partners utilize our expertise in cybersecurity to bring additional services to their end customers that are beyond their normal scope of offerings, and building our network of channel partners allows us the ability to efficiently gain access to a greater number of customers. We continue to drive development of our cybersecurity business through channel and direct marketing, social media programs, and fostering our extensive cybersecurity industry relationships. We are not reliant on any one customer for our cybersecurity software and services sales given that we work with a number of channel partners and direct customers. In addition to our cybersecurity software and services, we provide from time to time other information technology consulting services to existing clients.

Recent Developments

In accordanceDuring the six months ended June 30, 2022, we had sales of approximately $3,364,000 million, an operating loss of approximately $1,295,000 and a net loss of approximately $1,701,000. During the year ended December 31, 2021, we had sales of approximately $7.2 million, an operating loss of approximately $1.4 million and a net loss of approximately $1.6 million, These losses were due primarily to increased investment in sales and marketing for Nodeware and related services, together with increased costs associated with our roll-up strategy,preparations to list on January 31, 2022, we entered into an agreement to acquire the issuedNasdaq and outstanding equity securities of Pratum, an Iowa corporation and an information securities firm. Pratum provides cybersecurity consulting and advisory services, risk assessments, and managed extended detection and response services, which we believe is a strategic fit for us. The aggregate purchase price under the Pratum agreement is $8,500,000, subject to customary purchase price adjustments for, among other things, indebtedness of Pratum as of the closing. $8,000,000 will be paid to Pratum’s shareholder at closing and $500,000 will be deposited at closing with an escrow agent to be held in escrow for a period of six months. We anticipate that the transaction will close promptly following the closing of this offering. Pratum will keep its name and operate as a wholly-owned subsidiary of ours.assessing potential acquisition targets.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, we had sales of approximately $7.2 million, an operating loss of approximately $1.4 million and a net loss of approximately $1.6 million, due primarily to increased investment in sales and marketing for Nodeware and related services, together with increased costs associated with our preparations to list on Nasdaq and with assessing potential acquisition targets. As a result of growing demand and accelerated growth in the cybersecurity market, we continue to grow our team of cybersecurity sales and technical consultants internally and leverage contractors when needed to fill short term gaps. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, we added 3 new employees, primarily to the sales and marketing team. We added 12 new employees, primarily in the areas of sales, marketing, and technical consulting for cybersecurity services in 2021. We had full year sales of approximately $7.2 million in 2020 and $7.1 million in 2019, generating operating income of approximately $1,000 and $329,000 and net income of approximately $676,000 and $48,000, respectively.

On August 8, 2022, the Company, as borrower, entered into a financing arrangement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Celtic Bank (the “Lender”), a Utah corporation. Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the Lender agreed to lend the Company $139,400 with a one-time fixed loan fee of $11,152 for a total obligation of $150,552. Under the terms of the Loan Agreement, payments are due beginning August 15, 2022, and shall consist of 25% of the Company’s receivables processed through Stripe, Inc.’s payment processing platform and then due and owing to the Company or $16,728 over a sixty day period, whichever is higher. Subsequent payments shall also consist of 25% of the Company’s receivables processed through Stripe, Inc.’s payment processing platform and then due and owing to the Company or $16,728 over a sixty day period, whichever is higher, with the final payment due on February 6, 2024. The Loan is subject to customary events of default.

On July 29, 2022, the Company and Andrew Hoyen (“Hoyen Lender”), a director and executive officer of the Company, entered into a note modification agreement (the “Hoyen Modification”) with respect to the Line of Credit Note and Agreement in the original principal sum of up to $100,000, dated July 18, 2017, issued by the Company to the Hoyen Lender (the “Hoyen Note”). The Hoyen Note and the Hoyen Modification was approved by the disinterested members of our Board of Directors. The Hoyen Modification extends the due date of the Hoyen Note to July 31, 2023, on which date the current outstanding principal balance of $90,000 and accrued and unpaid interest will be due. Pursuant to the Hoyen Modification, the Company agreed to repay to Lender $16,000 of the accrued interest on the Hoyen Note and off-set such repayment against the exercise on July 29, 2022 by Lender of certain options to acquire 8,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The remaining accrued and unpaid interest on the Note was $10,930 as of July 29, 2022. Except as set forth in the Hoyen Modification, the terms of the Hoyen Note remain the same.

On June 30, 2022, and September 6, 2022 the Company and Donald W. Reeve (“Reeve Lender”), a director of the company, entered into note modification agreements (each a “Reeve Modification” and collectively, the “Reeve Modifications”) with respect to the Promissory Note originally dated December 30, 2020 (“2020 Note”) and the Promissory Note originally dated May 25, 2021 (“2021 Note”). The 2020 Note, the 2021 Note and the Reeve Modifications were each approved by the disinterested members of our Board of Directors.  The Reeve Modification of the 2020 Note extended the due date of the first balloon payment under the 2020 Note of $100,000 to January 1, 2023. The Reeve Modification of the 2021 Note extended the maturity date of the 2021 Note to January 1, 2023, on which date the principal balance of $100,000 and accrued interest of $9,616 will be due.  Except as set forth above, the terms of the 2020 Note and the 2021 Note remain the same.

In June 2021, we created IGI CyberLabs, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary, to support our Nodeware solution and continued software development. CyberLabs’s overarching mission is to drive sales of our Nodeware Cloud security solution, which we believe will drive monthly and annualized recurring revenue. CyberLabs will also drive product and platform enhancements in Nodeware and new cloud and SaaS cybersecurity related products that will be brought to market through our growing channel partner relationships.

Business Strategy

We have a threefold business strategy composed of:

We believe our ability to succeed depends on how successful we are in differentiating ourselves in the market at a time when competition and consolidation in these markets is on the rise. Our software and services are designed to simplify the security needs of our customers and channel partners, with a focus on the small to mid-sized enterprises, and we believe our ability to integrate our product and service offerings differentiates them from our competitors. In addition, we support our channel partners by providing recurring-revenue business models for both services and our cybersecurity SaaS solutions.

Cybersecurity is a constantly evolving field, so we devote significant efforts in developing proprietary software and services to meet our customer and channel partners’ evolving needs. These efforts have resulted in the development of our patented and patent-pending Nodeware solution. We expect to continue to make significant investments in developing other intellectual property to serve as the core to other proprietary software and services.

Historically, a significant portion of our revenues has been derived through our managed support services, however, we believe our cybersecurity SaaS solutions, including Nodeware, present an opportunity for significant growth. We believe that Nodeware’s ability to be deployed in an underserved market segment, across a wide variety of networks and the ability to integrate it into existing and new cybersecurity software and services, will allow us to significantly grow this segment of our business. Similarly, we believe Nodeware’s SaaS recurring revenue business model and its flexibility as a standalone or integrated solution makes it an attractive part of our channel partners’ portfolio of products. Accordingly, in 2021 and 2022, we made significant investments in Nodeware sales and marketing to grow our team of cybersecurity sales and technical consultants. As a result, we believe we are seeing the pipeline growth expected from focused efforts, which we anticipate will convert to revenue growth in 2022, 2023 and beyond.

We believe the market for cybersecurity services for small and medium-sized enterprises is fragmented and does not currently meet the needs of this customer base. The market is fragmented and is beginning to consolidate, which is why we are seeking to strategically acquire other cybersecurity technology and services companies.

The following sections define specific components of our business strategy.

Nodeware

Nodeware is a patented SaaS solution that automates network asset identification, and cybersecurity vulnerability management and monitoring. Nodeware simply and affordably enhances security by proactively identifying, monitoring, and addressing potential cybersecurity vulnerabilities on networks, which creates enhanced security to safeguard against hackers and ransomware. Nodeware’s flexibility allows it to span from a single network to several subnetworks, as well as accommodating larger, more complex organizations with more advanced network needs. Nodeware assesses vulnerabilities in a computer network using proprietary scanning technology to capture a comprehensive view of the security exposure of a network infrastructure. Users receive alerts and view network information through a proprietary, web enabled dashboard. Continuous and automated internal scanning and external on demand scanning are components of this offering. As described below, Nodeware has one patent and one patent pending. We intend to develop other intellectual property that serve as the core to other proprietary software and services to market through a channel of domestic and international partners and distributors.

Nodeware provides an economical solution for small and medium-sized enterprises as compared to costly solutions focused on enterprise sized customers, and is designed to accommodate the varying network needs of our end customers’ organizations and networks. Nodeware is sold as a SaaS solution and continuously releases enhancements, updates, and upgrades to stay current with security needs and changes in the market. Nodeware is also designed to be integrated into other technology platforms. We primarily sell Nodeware through our channel partners, with a small percentage being sold directly to end customers. Nodeware creates an opportunity for our channel partners to sell and use a product that provides greater visibility into the network security of an end customer. Since 2018, we have continued to expand our portfolio of channel partners, which now includes Telarus, TD SYNNEX, Staples, and a growing list of MSPs, MSSPs, agents and distributors and government contractors.

In June 2021, we created IGI CyberLabs, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary, to support our Nodeware solution and continued software development. CyberLabs’s overarching mission is to drive sales of Nodeware, which we believe will drive monthly and annualized recurring revenue. CyberLabs will also drive product and platform enhancements across other current future subsidiaries as IGI’s roll up of cybersecurity companies comes to fruition. This also enhances our ability to bring new cloud and SaaS cybersecurity related solutions to market through our growing channel partner relationships.

Cybersecurity Services

In addition to Nodeware, we provide cybersecurity consulting services that include incident response, security awareness training, cybersecurity risk management, IT governance and compliance, security assessment services, (CISOTaaS ™) and PenLogic™ penetration testing services offerings to channel partners and direct customers across different markets, including banking, manufacturing, supply chain, and technology, in North America. Our cybersecurity consulting projects leverage different technology platforms and processes, such as Nodeware, to create documentation and processes that a customer can use to continually improve overall IT governance and corporate security. We validate overall network and infrastructure security with the goal of maintaining the integrity of confidential client information, preserving the continuity of services, and minimizing potential data damage from cybersecurity threats and incidents. We continue to enhance our cybersecurity services based on feedback from customers and changes in the market.

Managed Support Services

We also provide managed support services related to information security, principally as a subcontractor for Peraton, a large information technology provider and U.S. government contractor, where we assume the responsibility for providing a defined set of cybersecurity services. These services typically include in-depth troubleshooting, backend analysis, and technical and security support, commonly referred to as Level 2 support, for mission critical technical infrastructure from the server level to the end user interface application in a critical government environment.

Intellectual Property

We believe that our intellectual property is an asset that will contribute to the growth and profitability of our business. We rely on a combination of patented, patent-pending and confidentiality procedures, trademarks and contractual provisions to establish and protect our intellectual property rights in the United States and abroad. We intend to rely on both registration and common law protection for our trademarks.

In May 2016, we filed a provisional patent application for our proprietary product, Nodeware, and launched it commercially in November 2016. In May 2017, we filed a utility patent application for Nodeware: U.S. Patent No. 10,999,307, was issued on May 4, 2021, for NETWORK ASSESSMENT SYSTEMS AND METHODS THEREOF U.S. Patent Application Serial No. 15/600,297, filed May 19, 2017, claiming priority of U.S. Provisional Patent Application Serial No. 62/338,904, filed May 19, 2016. The patent will remain in effect for four years from the date of issue and may be extended for up to twenty years from the filing date. Therefore, the expiration date of the subject patent, assuming all milestones to extend are met, is July 19, 2037.

In December 2019, we filed a second provisional patent application and in December 2020 we filed the subsequent action on the patent on Nodeware. In 2020 and 2021, we created updates and improvements to the platform in response to COVID-19 needs and impact such as a downloadable Windows executable version along with Windows, Mac, and Linux Agents that could be downloaded to a remote PC or server. A number of enhancements related to data management, threat intelligence, and user functionality were part of these updates.

The efforts we have taken to protect our intellectual property may not be sufficient or effective. As a result of this uncertainty and overall significance to the financial statements, these costs have been expensed.

The U.S. patent system permits the filing of provisional and non-provisional patent applications. A non-provisional patent application is examined by the United States Patent and Trademark Office and can mature into a patent once that office determines that the claimed invention meets the standards for patentability.

Our current patent and trademark portfolio consists of a patent for the Nodeware solution and process for scanning for vulnerabilities and a pending patent covering the methodologies associated with identifying and cataloging the assets on or across any physical or cloud network, together with a registered trademark for the “Nodeware” name and other trademarks and tradenames associated with our company and products. We intend to continue to work to enhance our intellectual property position on the Nodeware solution and in other appropriate cybersecurity technology we generate.

Research and Development

Our research and development efforts are focused on ensuring our software and services continually adapt to ever-evolving cybersecurity threats, developing new and improved functionality to meet our customers’ needs, and to enable robust and efficient integration with other industry solutions. Our research and development team is responsible for the design, development, testing and quality of our software, including Nodeware, and works to ensure that our software is available, reliable and stable.

We believe the timely development of new features and the enhancement of our existing solution(s) that address continuously evolving cybersecurity risks is essential to maintaining our competitive position. Our research and development team works closely with our channel partners, customers, and internal teams to collect user feedback to enhance our development process to continually incorporate suggestions and feedback. We also believe our research and development teams’ focus on developing new products will help us expand our business and improve our market position. We invest substantial resources in research and development to ensure that the functionalities of Nodeware can be robustly and efficiently integrated with other industry solutions because we believe this is key to our ability to expand the presence of Nodeware and our other software and services in the cybersecurity market. We utilize an agile development process to deliver numerous releases, fixes and feature updates on a regular basis and capitalize qualifying costs of developing larger scale projects. Our research and development team is primarily based in Pittsford, New York, and we maintain additional research and development capabilities in certain other locations who supplement our core team.

In June 2021, we created IGI CyberLabs, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary, to support our Nodeware solution and continued software development. CyberLabs’s overarching mission is to drive sales of our Nodeware solution, which we believe will drive monthly and annualized recurring revenue. CyberLabs will also drive product and platform enhancements in Nodeware and new cloud and SaaS cybersecurity related products that will be brought to market through our growing direct customer and channel partner relationships. We believe a continued focus on intellectual property development creates differentiation in the market for cybersecurity.

Costs incurred prior to reaching technological feasibility are expensed as incurred, and subsequently they are capitalized until product launch.

Certifications

We possess certifications with our business and technology partners and our technical support personnel maintain a number of relevant certifications and qualifications in certain software applications and in the cybersecurity space. We believe having these certifications and qualifications demonstrates to our channel partners and customers that we have the appropriate level of expertise to support their needs. These certifications are examples of our concerted effort to grow and expand our cybersecurity specialization, and include the following:

Regulations

We follow standard regulations and standards as part of our ongoing processes: NYS Shield Act, Sarbanes Oxley , National Institute of Standards and Technology Cybersecurity Framework, and Payment Card Industry (“PCI”) level 4 self-assessment.

Competition

We face competition from many companies in the evolving cybersecurity market. We compete with other MSPs and IT professional services firms who have cybersecurity offerings, MSSPs, and cybersecurity product and software developers operating in the North American market. We have competitors who are both publicly listed and private companies, and that are regional and national in coverage. Many of our larger competitors have substantially greater capital resources, research and development staff, sales, and marketing resources, facilities, and experience than we do. We obtain a portion of our business based on proposals submitted in response to requests from potential and current clients, who will typically also receive proposals from our competitors. Specifically, Nodeware faces direct competition from companies such as Rapid 7, Qualys, and Tenable in the vulnerability management market.

Facilities

Our principal offices are located at 175 Sully’s Trail, Suite 202, Pittsford, New York 14534, where we lease approximately 7,1127,181 square feet of office space under a lease that expires in July 2022. We are negotiating with our landlord to remain in the same location with a smaller footprint. We believe a smaller footprint will be suitable and adequate for our current and future needs given the ability of our employees to work remotely. Approximately2029. Because approximately 85% of the workforce is remote, and while we will be renewing our lease, we feelfelt it iswas prudent to reduce the size of our current facility. As a result, we entered into a new lease commencing June 1, 2022, for a smaller footprint than provided for under our previous lease.

We do not own or operate, and have no plans to establish, any manufacturing facilities.

Employees

As of April 29,September 14, 2022, we have 6458 full-time employees, including 4238 in information technology services, 34 in executive management, 54 in accounting, finance and administration, 2 in software development and 1210 in marketing and sales. We are not subject to any collective bargaining agreements, and we believe that relations with our employees and independent contractors are good. We believe that we are currently staffed at an appropriate level to administratively implement and carry out our business plan for the next 12 months. However, we expect to add between 2 and 10 employees in sales, technical support, marketing and cybersecurity consulting to meet growing demands.

Our ability to develop and market our services, and to establish and maintain a competitive position in our businesses will depend, in large part, upon our ability to attract and retain qualified technical, marketing and managerial personnel, of which there can be no assurance.

PROPOSED ACQUISITION OF PRATUM

Stock Purchase Agreement

On January 31, 2022, we entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Pratum Agreement”) to acquire the issued and outstanding equity securities of Pratum for an aggregate purchase price of $8,500,000, subject to customary purchase price adjustments for, among other things, indebtedness of Pratum as of the closing. $8,000,000 will be paid to the Nelson Trust and David A. Nelson (together, the “Seller Parties”) at closing and $500,000 will be deposited at closing with an escrow agent to be held in escrow for a period of six months. The escrow amount may be used to account for indemnification claims and any post-closing adjustment of the Pratum Acquisition Consideration.

The Pratum Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants by each of the parties, and contains indemnification provisions under which the parties have agreed, subject to certain limitations, to indemnify each other against losses resulting from certain liabilities.

The closing of the transaction is subject to customary conditions, including, among others, (i) receipt of any necessary regulatory approvals and licenses, (ii) the absence of any litigation or governmental order that restrains, prevents or materially alters the transactions contemplated by the Pratum Agreement, (iii) the accuracy of the parties’ representations and warranties contained in the Pratum Agreement remaining true as of closing (subject to certain qualifications), (iv) Pratum’s and the Seller Parties’ material compliance with the covenants and agreements in the Pratum Agreement, and (v) the our obtaining sufficient debt or equity financing to fund the Pratum Acquisition Consideration.

The Pratum Agreement also contains customary pre-closing covenants, including the obligation of Pratum and the Seller Parties to cause Pratum to conduct its business in all material respects in the ordinary course and to refrain from taking certain specified actions without our written consent.

On March 28, 2022 the parties to the Pratum Agreement amended the agreement to extend the outside date for closing from March 31, 2022 to May 15, 2022. Accordingly, the Pratum Agreement may be terminated under certain circumstances, including, among others if the transaction does not close by May 15, 2022. Additionally, either party may terminate the Pratum Agreement upon a breach by the other party of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by such breaching party in the Pratum Agreement, such that the conditions related to the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made by such breaching party would not be satisfied and such breach or condition is not curable or, if curable, is not cured 30 days after written notice of such breach.

The foregoing description of the Pratum Agreement and the transactions contemplated therein does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Pratum Agreement, which is filed as an exhibit to this registration statement. The representations, warranties and covenants of each party set forth in the Pratum Agreement have been made only for the purposes of, and were and are solely for the benefit of the parties to the Pratum Agreement, and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the Pratum Agreement instead of establishing these matters as facts, and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Accordingly, the representations and warranties may not describe the actual state of affairs at the date they were made or at any other time, and investors should not rely on them as statements of fact. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Pratum Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in our public disclosures. Accordingly, the Pratum Agreement is included with this filing only to provide investors with information regarding the terms of the Pratum Agreement, and not to provide investors with any factual information regarding Pratum or the Seller Parties, their respective affiliates or their respective businesses.

Under the terms of the Pratum Agreement, upon the closing of the transaction, Pratum will enter into certain other agreements. Forms of these agreements are attached as exhibits to the Pratum Agreement, and the following descriptions of certain of these agreements are qualified by reference to the corresponding exhibits to the Pratum Agreement. At closing, each of Jordan Engbers, Steve Healey and Megan Soat will enter into a new employment agreement with Pratum pursuant to which they will continue to serve as executives of Pratum following the closing of the transaction. At closing, David A. Nelson will enter into a consulting agreement with Pratum pursuant to which he will provide certain consulting services, including services related to transitioning Pratum’s business to us.

As part of our roll-up strategy, we believe that by acquiring companies that have not yet reached scale, like Pratum, we can stimulate our own growth, gain a competitive advantage, and increase our market share. For those reasons, we believe the Pratum Acquisition is a strategic fit for us. Pratum’s services and solutions complement and supplement ours, which we believe will allow us to better serve our customers and the cybersecurity market at large. We believe the Pratum Acquisition will also enable Pratum and us to leverage synergies, resulting in increased performance and cost efficiencies.

We anticipate that the transaction will close promptly following the closing of this offering. Pratum will keep its name and operate as a wholly-owned subsidiary of ours.

Overview of Pratum

Headquartered in Ankeny, Iowa, Pratum is a cybersecurity and information securities firm that helps clients address information security challenges through a balance of risk management, information security, and compliance.

Like us, Pratum’s ability to succeed depends on how successful it is in differentiating itself in the cybersecurity market at a time when competition and consolidation in these markets are on the rise. Pratum differentiates its services from its competitors by basing its solutions on quantitative data, capitalizing on industry-leading insights, and focusing on relationships by learning business objectives and needs. Pratum’s services are designed to arm its clients with knowledge and understanding, empowering them to protect critical data without disruption to business operations. In order to best serve its clients, Pratum’s services are delivered by customized and dedicated service teams who continually work with clients to address their specific and unique challenges.

As part of its services offerings, Pratum:

Pratum sells directly to clients nationwide, as well as providing services through a small list of select referral partners. Clients range from small businesses to multinational corporations, and span various industries including technology, manufacturing, healthcare, financial services, banking, utilities, government, retail, and education.

We believe Pratum is well positioned as an industry leader and trusted resource and partner in cybersecurity, particularly in Iowa and the Midwest. Pratum operates the Secure Iowa Conference ^TM, which will celebrate its 10^th year at the September 2022 event. In addition, Pratum regularly participates in webinars and conference presentations and maintains a weekly blog on its website that discusses topics of interest to cybersecurity professionals.

Recent Developments

In 2021, Pratum leveraged more than a decade of experience in security information and event management and launched its managed XDR service built on Microsoft’s industry-leading technologies. We believe the managed XDR service is a key strategic priority for Pratum and will be a key driver of growth in the coming years.

In 2021, Pratum acquired the rights to the Secure Iowa Conference ^TM giving it control over the event, which Pratum previously operated on behalf of a third party. We believe this will solidify Pratum’s thought leadership in cybersecurity, particularly in Iowa and the Midwest.

In 2021, Pratum expanded its market reach by signing its first international client based on France.

Consulting and Advisory Services

Pratum provides consulting and advisory services, including vCISO, to help businesses develop and implement information security programs. Pratum’s vCISO delivers expert security leadership and a dedicated team of analysts and consultants equipped to solve unique and complex cybersecurity challenges. Its digital forensic services include digital investigations, acquisition of storage media, and acquisition of mobile devices, which enables clients to make informed decisions about security incidents. Pratum works with businesses to develop an incident response plan equipped to prepare organizations for all levels of security incidents. Finally, its security consulting practice works to facilitate organizational policy development and business continuity planning to ensure business objectives are met.

Assessments and Testing

Pratum conducts assessments and testing to identify and evaluate a risk tolerance that aligns with an organization’s business objectives. It also conducts penetration testing and IT audits to proactively discover exploitable network vulnerabilities. The results help an organization identify, assess, and respond to risks. During the process, Pratum identifies threat sources, identifies threat events, identifies vulnerabilities and predisposing conditions, determines the likelihood of adverse impact, determines the ultimate impact of a breach, and determines the associated risk. This enables a business to take a risk-driven approach to its cybersecurity decision-making.

Compliance

Pratum ensures compliance with Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, Federal Information Systems Management Act, Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard, Service Organization Control 2, Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification, and other data privacy laws, regulations, and industry standards. Pratum helps organizations navigate this complex and evolving landscape by creating tailored and compliant plans that outline how data should be safely stored, shared, and secured.

Managed XDR Services

Pratum provides managed XDR services, a threat detection and incident response tool that integrates various services into a unified, comprehensive operations system. Managed XDR service represents a key strategic priority for Pratum in 2022 and beyond. The service provides Pratum with visibility into its clients’ technology environments and enables it to intercept threats at the earliest stage and perform incident response service within minutes. The service is managed by its U.S.-based Security Operations Center (“SOC”) and leverages Microsoft’s industry-leading SIEM and EDR technologies. This enables Pratum to deliver a fully integrated defense and stop malicious network activity before it spreads. Its managed XDR service covers an organization’s entire ecosystem including endpoints, cloud workloads, firewalls, network devices, services, internet of things, and e-mail.

Certifications

Pratum possess certifications with its business and technology partners and its technical support personnel maintain a number of relevant certifications and qualifications in certain software applications and in the cybersecurity space. We believe having these certifications and qualifications demonstrates that Pratum has the appropriate level of expertise to support its customers needs. These certifications include the following:

Facilities

Pratum’s principal offices are located at 1551 SW Prairie Trail Pkwy, Ankeny, Iowa 50023, where it leases approximately 7,540 square feet of office space under a lease that expires in December 2034. We believe Pratum’s facility is adequate for its current and future needs. Pratum does not own or operate, and has no plans to establish, any manufacturing facilities.

Employees

As of April 29, 2022, Pratum has 26 full-time employees, including 2 in executive management, 16 in consulting and analyst roles, 1 in administration and 7 in marketing and sales. Pratum is not subject to any collective bargaining agreements, and we believe that relations with its employees and independent contractors are good. We believe that Pratum is currently staffed at an appropriate level to administratively implement and carry out its business plan for the next 12 months.

Pratum’s ability to develop and market its services, and to establish and maintain a competitive position in its businesses will depend, in large part, upon its ability to attract and retain qualified technical, marketing and managerial personnel, of which there can be no assurance.

Business Overview

Headquartered in Pittsford, New York, Infinite Group is a developer of cybersecurity software and related cybersecurity consulting, advisory and managed information security services. We principally sell our software and services through indirect channels such as MSPs, MSSPs, agents and distributors and government contractors, whom we refer to collectively as our channel partners. We also sell directly to end customers.

We believe our ability to succeed depends on how successful we are in differentiating ourselves in the cybersecurity market at a time when competition and consolidation in these markets are on the rise. Our strategy to differentiate our cybersecurity software and services from our competitors is to combine customized software and professional services, and grow our business by designing, developing, and marketing cybersecurity SaaS solutions that can be deployed in myriad environments. Software and services are initially developed in our wholly-owned subsidiary, IGI CyberLabs, to fill technology gaps we identify, and then we bring these software and services to market through our existing channel partner and customer relationships. Our software and services are designed to simplify and manage the security needs of our customers and channel partners in a variety of environments. We focus on the small and medium-sized enterprises market. We support our channel partners by providing recurring-revenue business models for both services and through our cybersecurity SaaS solutions. Products may be sold as standalone solutions or integrated into existing environments to further automate the management of cybersecurity and related IT functions.

Business Strategy

We have a threefold business strategy composed of:

We believe our ability to succeed depends on how successful we are in differentiating ourselves in the market at a time when competition and consolidation in these markets is on the rise.

Our software and services are designed to simplify the security needs of our customers and channel partners, with a focus on the small to mid-sized enterprises, and be believe our ability to integrate our product and service offerings differentiates them from our competitors. In addition, we support our channel partners by providing recurring -revenue business models for both services and our cybersecurity SaaS solutions.

Cybersecurity is a constantly evolving field, so we devote significant efforts in developing proprietary software and services to meet our customer and channel partners’ evolving needs. These efforts have resulted in the development of our patented and patent-pending Nodeware solution. We expect to continue to make significant investments in developing other intellectual property to serve as the core to other proprietary software and services.

Historically, a significant portion of our revenues has been derived through our managed support services, however, we believe our cybersecurity SaaS solutions, including Nodeware, present an opportunity for significant growth. We believe that Nodeware’s ability to be deployed across a wide variety of networks and the ability to integrate it into existing and new cybersecurity solutions, will allow us to significantly grow this segment of our business. Similarly, we believe Nodeware’s SaaS recurring revenue business model and its flexibility as a standalone or integrated solution makes it an attractive part of our channel partners’ portfolio of products. Accordingly, in 2021 and 2022, we made significant investments in IGI and CyberLabs sales and marketing to grow our team of cybersecurity sales and technical consultants. As a result, we believe we are seeing the pipeline growth expected from focused efforts, which we anticipate will convert to revenue growth in 2022.2022, 2023 and beyond.

We believe the market for cybersecurity services for small and medium-sized enterprises is fragmented and does not currently meet the needs of this customer base. The market is fragmented and is beginning to consolidate, which is why we are seeking to strategically acquire other cybersecurity technology and services companies.

Recent Developments

On August 8, 2022, the Company, as borrower, entered into a financing arrangement (the “Loan Agreement”) with Celtic Bank (the “Lender”), a Utah corporation. Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the Lender agreed to lend the Company $139,400 with a one-time fixed loan fee of $11,152 for a total obligation of $150,552. Under the terms of the Loan Agreement, payments are due beginning August 15, 2022, and shall consist of 25% of the Company’s receivables processed through Stripe, Inc.’s payment processing platform and then due and owing to the Company or $16,728 over a sixty-day period, whichever is higher. Subsequent payments shall also consist of 25% of the Company’s receivables processed through Stripe, Inc.’s payment processing platform and then due and owing to the Company or $16,728.00 over a sixty-day period, whichever is higher, with the final payment due on February 6, 2024. The Loan is subject to customary events of default.

On July 29, 2022, the Company and Andrew Hoyen (“Hoyen Lender”), a director and executive officer of the Company, entered into a note modification agreement (the “Hoyen Modification”) with respect to the Line of Credit Note and Agreement in the original principal sum of up to $100,000, dated July 18, 2017, issued by the Company to the Hoyen Lender (the “Hoyen Note”). The Hoyen Note and the Hoyen Modification was approved by the disinterested members of our Board of Directors. The Hoyen Modification extends the due date of the Hoyen Note to July 31, 2023, on which date the current outstanding principal balance of $90,000 and accrued and unpaid interest will be due. Pursuant to the Hoyen Modification, the Company agreed to repay to Lender $16,000 of the accrued interest on the Hoyen Note and off-set such repayment against the exercise on July 29, 2022 by Lender of certain options to acquire 8,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The remaining accrued and unpaid interest on the Note was $10,930 as of July 29, 2022. Except as set forth in the Hoyen Modification, the terms of the Hoyen Note remain the same.

On June 30, 2022, and September 6, 2022 the Company and Donald W. Reeve (“Reeve Lender”), a director of the company, entered into note modification agreements (each a “Reeve Modification” and collectively, the “Reeve Modifications”) with respect to the Promissory Note originally dated December 30, 2020 (“2020 Note”) and the Promissory Note originally dated May 25, 2021 (“2021 Note”). The 2020 Note, the 2021 Note and the Reeve Modifications were each approved by the disinterested members of our Board of Directors.  The Reeve Modification of the 2020 Note extended the due date of the first balloon payment under the 2020 Note of $100,000 to January 1, 2023. The Reeve Modification of the 2021 Note extended the maturity date of the 2021 Note to January 1, 2023, on which date the principal balance of $100,000 and accrued interest of $9,616 will be due.  Except as set forth above, the terms of the 2020 Note and the 2021 Note remain the same.

In June 2021, we created IGI CyberLabs, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary, to support our Nodeware solution and continued software development. CyberLabs’s overarching mission is to drive sales of our Nodeware Cloud security solution, which we believe will drive monthly and annualized recurring revenue. CyberLabs will also drive product and platform enhancements in Nodeware and new cloud and SaaS cybersecurity related products that will be brought to market through our growing channel partner relationships.

On November 3, 2021, we entered into a financing arrangement (the “Bridge Loan”) with Mast Hill Fund, L.P. ( “Mast Hill”), a Delaware limited partnership. In exchange for a promissory note, the Mast Hill agreed to lend the Company $448,000, which bears interest at a rate of eight percent (8%) per annum, less $44,800 original issue discount. Under the terms of the Loan, amortization payments are due beginning March 3, 2022, and each month thereafter with the final payment due on November 3, 2022. As additional consideration for the financing, the Company issued Mast Hill a 5-year warrant to purchase 28,000 shares of Company common stock at a fixed price of $8.00 per share, subject to price adjustments for certain actions, including dilutive issuances below the exercise price of such warrants. On February 15, 2022, we entered into a second financing arrangement (the “Second Bridge Loan”) with Mast Hill. In exchange for a promissory note, the Mast Hill agreed to lend the Company $370,000, which bears interest at a rate of eight percent (8%) per annum, less $37,000 original issue discount. As additional consideration for the financing, the Company issued Mast Hill a 5-year warrant to purchase 18,500 shares of Company common stock at a fixed price of $8.00 per share, subject to price adjustments for certain actions, including dilutive issuances below the exercise price of such warrants. On April 12, 2022, we entered into a third financing arrangement (the “Third Bridge Loan”) with Talos Victory Fund, LLC (“Talos” and together with Mast Hill, the “Lenders”) on substantially the same terms as our financing arrangements with Mast Hill. In exchange for a promissory note, the Talos agreed to lend the Company $296,000, which bears interest at a rate of eight percent (8%) per annum, less $29,600 original issue discount. As additional consideration for the financing, the Company issued Talos a 5-year warrant to purchase 14,800 shares of Company common stock at a fixed price of $8.00 per share, subject to price adjustments for certain actions, including dilutive issuances below the exercise price of such warrants. On May 31, 2022, we entered into a fourth financing arrangement (the “Fourth Bridge Loan” and together with the Bridge Loan, Second Bridge Loan, and Third Bridge Loans, the “Loans”) with Mast Hill. In exchange for a promissory note, the Mast Hill agreed to lend the Company $355,000, which bears interest at a rate of eight percent (8%) per annum, less $35,500 original issue discount. As additional consideration for the financing, the Company issued Mast Hill a 5-year warrant to purchase 17,750 shares of Company common stock at a fixed price of $8.00 per share, subject to price adjustments for certain actions, including dilutive issuances below the exercise price of such warrants. Under the terms of the Loans, amortization payments are due beginning four months from the issue date, and each month thereafter with the final payment due on the one year anniversary of the Loans. Additionally, in the event of a default under the Loans or if the Company elects to pre-pay the Loans, the Lenders have the right to convert any portion or all of the outstanding and unpaid principal and interest into fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $5.00 per share. On April 29, 2022, Mast Hill exercised the warrant issued to them on November 3, 2021 in full on a cashless basis and acquired 17,205 shares of Common Stock. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources” for more information regarding the Loans.

On December 15, 2021, our Boardboard of directors (the “Board”) approved a reverse stock split of our outstanding shares of common stock by a ratio within the range of 3-to-1 and 75-to-1 of our outstanding shares of common stock and recommended that the stockholders of the Company authorize the Board, in its discretion, for one year, to determine the final ratio, effective date, and date of filing of the certificate of amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, in connection with the reverse stock split. On January 26, 2022, the company’s stockholders voted to authorize the reverse stock split. As of the date of this report, the Board has not set a record date or a ratio for the reverse stock split. The reverse stock split will not impact the number of authorized shares of common stock which will remain at 60,000,000 shares. Unless otherwise noted and other than in our financial statements and the notes thereto, the share and per share information in this prospectus reflects a proposed reverse stock split of the outstanding common stock and treasury stock of the Company at an assumed 27-to-150-to-1 ratio to occur immediately following the effective date but prior to the closing of the offering, representing the mid-point of the anticipated reverse stock split range of 24-to-1 to 30-to-1.

In accordance with our roll-up strategy, on January 31, 2022, we entered into an agreement to acquire the issued and outstanding equity securities of Pratum, an Iowa corporation and an information securities firm. Pratum provides cybersecurity consulting and advisory services, risk assessments, and managed XDR services. The aggregate purchase price under the Pratum agreements is $8,500,000, subject to customary purchase price adjustments for, among other things, indebtedness of Pratum as of the closing. $8,000,000 will be paid to Pratum’s shareholder at closing and $500,000 will be deposited at closing with an escrow agent to be held in escrow for a period of six months. We anticipate that the transaction will close promptly following the closing of this offering. Pratum will keep its name and operate as a wholly-owned subsidiary of ours.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021

The following discussion analyzes our results of operations for the years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. The following information should be considered together with our financial statements for such periods and the accompanying notes thereto.

The following table compares our statements of operations data for the years ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. Certain trends suggested by this table are not indicative of future operating results

Sales

Our managed support service sales increased by 5.5% from $1,057,431 during the three months ended June 30, 2021 to $1,115,607 during the corresponding period of 2022. For the six month period ended June 30, managed support service sales increased 3.6% from $2,128,331 in 2021 to $2,204,614 for the same period in 2022.  Managed support service sales comprised approximately 66% of our sales in both the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, and approximately 59% for the same two periods in 2021.  The increase in our managed support service sales during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was due to additional projects requested by Perspecta, offset by the continued decline of virtualization subcontract projects assigned to us by VMWare due to projects coming to a conclusion in 2021. The decline in virtualization subcontract projects has been a trend occurring since 2015 that we expect to continue for the duration of 2022.

Our cybersecurity projects and software sales, primarily to SMEs, decreased by 15.7% to $580,885 during the three months ended June 30, 2022, from $689,073 during the corresponding period of 2021. These same sales decreased by 16.7% to $1,158,948 during the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $1,391,515 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2021, respectively.  The decrease is primarily due to a temporary decline in the number of cybersecurity projects, the mix of recurring versus one-time projects, and the completion of those projects for revenue recognition. This was offset primarily by the growth of 76% in Nodeware revenue for the six-month period ended June 30, 2022 over 2021. We expect the revenue to grow due to increased projects in the sales pipeline and completion of projects in the coming months.

Other IT consulting services sales declined during the three months ended June 30, 2022, decreasing by $51,000 from the same period in 2021. These same sales declined during the six months ended June 30, 2022 by $102,000 from the same period in 2021.  The decline in other IT consulting services sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 was due to the termination of a consulting contract, which occurred during the second quarter of 2021.

Cost of Sales and Gross Profit

Cost of sales principally represents compensation expense for our employees. Cost of sales decreased by 4.5% to $1,059,639 during the three months ended June 30, 2022 from $1,109,223 during the corresponding period of 2021. The decrease in cost of sales during the three months ended June 30, 2022 from 2021 was due to a reduction in headcount of marketing and sales personnel.  Cost of sales decreased slightly during the six months ended June 30, 2022 from the same period in 2021, by 0.1%, decreasing from $2,182,138 to $2,180,879.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses include corporate overhead such as compensation and benefits for executive, administrative and finance personnel, rent, insurance, professional fees, travel, and office expenses. General and administrative expenses of $613,317 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 increased 13% from $541,711 for the same quarter of 2021.  For the six months ended June 30, 2022, general and administrative costs were 21% higher than the same period in 2021, increasing to $1,217,300 from $1,006,103.  These were primarily due to the increases to professional fees for legal, accounting and consulting services of approximately $108,000, for the comparative three-month periods, and $198,000 for the comparative six month period.

Selling Expenses

Selling expenses of $612,957 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 increased 21% from $507,042 for the same quarter of 2021. The increase in selling expenses is due to the hiring of additional salespeople during 2021 to sell our cybersecurity services and software, and investments in consultants and partners to identify and sell more of our services and software. The increase in selling expenses from the hiring of new personnel was approximately $109,000 higher for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to 2021 and spending on consulting partners was approximately $22,000 higher for the same respective periods.  For the six months ended June 30, 2022, Selling expenses of $1,260,582 increased 41% from $894,767 for the same period in 2021.   This increase is primarily related to the hiring of additional salespeople during 2021 as well as investment in consultants and partners.

Operating Income (Loss)

For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, operating loss was $589,421 and $360,472, respectively, for an increase in the loss by $228,949. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the operating loss was $1,295,199, an increase in the loss by $834,037 from $461,162 in the same period of 2021. The increase in our operating loss from the previous year is principally attributable to the decrease in sales, growth of our sales team and the associated costs, and investment in the growth of our business as well as professional fees incurred for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to 2021, as discussed above.

Interest Expense

Net interest expense of $243,779 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, increased 335% from expense of $56,031 for the same quarter of 2021.  Net interest expense of $406,235 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, increased 278% from expense of $107,571 for the same period of 2021.  The increase in interest expense is primarily attributable to the bridge loans taken in the last three quarters.

Net Loss

For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, net loss was $833,200 and $416,503, respectively, an increase in the loss by $416,696.  For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, net loss was $1,701,434 and $568,730, respectively.  The increase in both comparable periods is attributable primarily to the selling, general and administrative, and interest items discussed above. 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 2022, we had cash of $1,594. At June 30, 2022, we had a working capital deficit of approximately $4,400,000 and a current ratio of 0.16.

During 2022, our primary source of liquidity is cash provided by collections of accounts receivable and our factoring line of credit. We maintain an accounts receivable financing line of credit with an independent financial institution that allows us to sell selected accounts receivable invoices to the financial institution with full recourse against us in the amount of $2,000,000, including a sublimit for one major client of $1,500,000. This provides us with the cash needed to finance certain of our on-going costs and expenses. At June 30, 2022, based on eligible accounts receivable, we had $1,000 available under this arrangement. We expect sales during 2022 to generate additional accounts receivable eligible for factoring, that will support our operations. We pay fees based on the length of time that the invoice remains unpaid.

At June 30, 2022, we had current notes payable of $229,000 to related parties. $100,000 of this debt was extended from September 1, 2022 and is now due on January 1, 2023. The remaining $129,000 are in the form of demand notes with an interest rate of 6%.

At June 30, 2022, we had current notes payable of approximately $944,000 to third parties, which includes convertible notes payable of approximately $150,000. Also included is $12,500 in principal amount of a note payable due on June 30, 2016 but not paid by then. This note was issued in payment of software we purchased in February 2016 and secured by a security interest in the software. To date, the holder has not taken any action to collect the amount past due on this note or to enforce the security interest in the software.

Also included in the current notes payable are three Bridge Loans with Mast Hill Fund, L.P., which each bear interest at a rate of 8%. We plan to use the proceeds from the Bridge Loans to substantially enhance our marketing of CyberLab’s Nodeware solution, in order to significantly increase its growth. A total of approximately $658,000 was recorded as deferred note costs associated with these transactions. At June 30, 2022, the unamortized balance of the deferred notes costs was approximately $385,000. See Note 6 of the 2021 Audited Financial Statements for more information regarding the first Bridge Loan.  See our Form 8-K from February 15, 2022 for more information regarding the second Bridge Loan.  See our Form 8-K from May 31, 2022 for more information regarding the third Bridge Loan.  The gross notes payable to Mast Hill amount at June 30, 2022 was approximately $971,000.

Notes payable also includes a bridge loan from Talos Victory Fund, LLC., with an initial principal amount of $296,000, which bears interest at a rate of 8%.  A total of approximately $129,000 was recorded as deferred note costs associated with the loan.  As of June 30, 2022, the unamortized balance of the deferred note cost was approximately $101,000.  See our Form 8-K from April 12, 2022, for more information regarding this loan.  The gross note payable to Talos amount at June 30, 2022 was approximately $296,000.

We entered into unsecured lines of credit financing agreements (the “LOC Agreements”) with two related parties in previous years. The LOC Agreements provide for working capital of up to $100,000 through July 31, 2022 and $75,000 through January 2, 2023. At June 30, 2022, we had approximately $15,000 of availability under the LOC Agreements.

During the 2021, we issued demand notes to two board members for $55,000 in total. The demand notes bear a 6% interest rate. These were outstanding as of June 30, 2022.

At June 30, 2022, we had $765,000 of current maturities of long-term obligations to third parties. This is comprised of various notes including long-term notes to third parties of $265,000 due on January 1, 2018 (plus accrued interest of approximately $234,200), and approximately $500,000 due on December 31, 2021 which have not been renewed or amended.

At June 30, 2022, we had $225,000 of current maturities of long-term obligations to related parties. $200,000 is due on January 1, 2023.  $25,000 is due on June 30, 2023. 

We plan to renegotiate the terms of the various notes payable, seek funds to repay the notes or use a combination of both alternatives. We cannot provide assurance that we will be able to repay current notes payable or obtain extensions of maturity dates for long-term notes payable when they mature or that we will be able to repay or otherwise refinance the notes at their scheduled maturities.

We have a note payable agreement for up to $500,000 with a related party. The note has an interest rate of 7.5% and is due on August 31, 2026. The balance was $499,000 at June 30, 2022.

The following table sets forth our cash flow information for the periods presented:

Cash Flows Used by Operating Activities

Our operating cash flow is primarily affected by the overall profitability of our contracts, our ability to invoice and collect from our clients in a timely manner, and our ability to manage our vendor payments. We bill our clients weekly or monthly after services are performed as well as collect down payments depending on the contract terms. The cash impact of our net loss of $1,701,434 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, was offset in part by non-cash expenses and credits of $425,359. In addition, the cash impact of our net loss was further offset by a decrease in accounts receivable and other assets of $94,288, a decrease in accrued payroll, deferred revenue and other expenses payable of $4,784, and an increase in accounts payable of $549,665 resulting in cash used by operating activities of $636,906.

We have increased our marketing of Nodeware to our IT channel partners who resell to their customers. We have made investments in our cyber security team for penetration testing, CISOTaaS and other services. Due to the lengthy lead times typically needed to generate these new sales, we do not expect to realize a return from our sales and marketing personnel for one or more quarters. As a result, we may continue to experience operating income or operating losses from these investments in personnel until sufficient sales are generated. We expect to fund the cost for the new sales personnel from our operating cash flows, incremental borrowings and funds from the planned offering described above, as needed.

Cash Flows Used by Investing Activities

In the quarters ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we incurred capital expenditures for computer hardware as well as software development labor for the enhancements to Nodeware. The slight decrease from 2021 was primarily due to less development activities in 2022 that were capitalized. We expect to continue to invest in computer hardware and software to update our technology to support the growth of our business. We do not anticipate our continued investment to be significant.

Cash Flows Provided by Financing Activities

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we received $865,455 from various bridge loans from the Mast Hill Fund L.P. and Talos Victory Fund, LLC. This is comprised of gross proceeds of $1,021,000 less debt issuance costs of $155,545. We also paid principal of $215,040 of principal on the Mast Hill Fund L.P. bridge loan established in November 2021.

Credit Resources

We maintain an accounts receivable financing line of credit from an independent financial institution that allows us to sell selected accounts receivable invoices to the financial institution with full recourse against us in the amount of $2,000,000, including a sublimit for one major client of $1,500,000. This provides us with the cash needed to finance certain costs and expenses. At June 30, 2022, we had financing availability, based on eligible accounts receivable, of approximately $1,000 under this line. We pay fees based on the length of time that the invoice remains unpaid. We also have approximately $16,000 of available credit under various lines of credit as of June 30, 2022.

During May 2019, we originated a line of credit note payable for a $500,000 with a related party and borrowed $499,000 and have $1,000 available to borrow for working capital. This agreement matures in August 2026.

During 2017, we originated two lines of credit with related parties totaling $175,000. At June 30, 2021, we had $15,000 available under these financing agreements. The maturity date of the $75,000 line of credit is January 2023, whereas the maturity date of the $100,000 line of credit has been extended to July 2023.

We believe the capital resources available under our factoring line of credit, cash from additional related party loans and cash generated by improving the results of our operations will be sufficient to fund our ongoing operations for at least the next 12 months. The funds from the equity raise will allow us to support and accelerate the internal growth of our operations and offer additional opportunities if they arise.

We anticipate financing growth from acquisitions of other businesses, if any, and our longer-term internal growth through one or more of the following sources: issuance of equity; cash from collections of accounts receivable; additional borrowing from related and third parties; use of our existing accounts receivable credit facility; or a refinancing of our accounts receivable credit facility.
