COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | Note 7 – Commitments and Contingencies Legal Matters On February 24, 2020, Michael J. Orlando, as shareholder representative (the “Shareholder Representative”), and the other stockholders of Fit Pay, Inc. (collectively, the “Fit Pay Shareholders”), filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Company, CrowdOut Capital, LLC, and Garmin International, Inc. (the “Complaint”). See Orlando v. Nxt-ID, Inc. No. 20-cv-1604 (S.D.N.Y.). The Complaint alleges that the Company has breached certain contractual obligations under a merger agreement, dated May 23, 2017, between Fit Pay, Inc. and the Company, regarding certain future, contingent earnout payments allegedly that could be owed to the Fit Pay Shareholders from future revenues. The Complaint seeks unspecified monetary damages from the defendants. The Company believes that these claims are without merit and plans to vigorously defend the action. The Company waived service of the summons and received an automatic extension of time to answer the Complaint. On May 12, 2020, the Company filed an answer and counterclaims alleging, among other things, fraud and breach of fiduciary duty of the Shareholder Representative as well as arguing that the Shareholder Representative should be estopped from pursuing these claims. The Company has moved for summary judgment to have the lawsuit dismissed. The Company has been able to successfully stay discovery pending the court’s ruling on motions to dismiss by Garmin International, Inc. and CrowdOut Capital, LLC. Since the litigation is still in its early stages, the Company is not yet able to evaluate the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome or estimate the amount or range of potential loss. In connection with the sale of Fit-Pay, Inc., Giesecke+Devrient Mobile Security America, Inc. (“GDMSAI”) has identified a disagreement with the Company over calculation of dividends with respect to GDMSAI’s Series C Non-Convertible Voting Preferred Stock (the “Series C”) of the Company. On August 13, 2020, the Company was sued by GDMSAI seeking, among other things, $440,000 of dividends that it believes are owed to it pursuant to the terms of the Series C. The Company believes that GDMSAI’s claims are not correct and plans to vigorously defend the action. The Company has moved to have the case removed from Delaware to New York, where the Company claims the forum clause requires the claims to be heard. The Company has opposed GDMSAI’s motion for summary judgment. Since the litigation is still in its early stages, the Company is not yet able to evaluate the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome or estimate the amount or range of potential loss beyond the amount stated in the action. From time to time, the Company may be involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of our business. Other than the above, there is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of the Company or any of our subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting our company, or any of our subsidiaries in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect upon our business, operating results, or financial condition. Commitments The Company leases office space and a fulfillment center in the U.S., which are classified as operating leases expiring at various dates. The Company determines if an arrangement qualifies as a lease at the lease inception. The Company adopted Topic 842 effective January 1, 2019. Operating lease liabilities are recorded based on the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term, assessed as of the commencement date. The Company’s real estate leases, which are for office space and a fulfillment center, generally have a lease term between 3 and 5 years. The Company also leases a copier with a lease term of 5 years. The Company’s leases are comprised of fixed lease payments and also include executory costs such as common area maintenance, as well as property insurance and property taxes. As a practical expedient under Topic 842, the Company has elected to account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for its real estate leases. Lease payments, which may include lease components, non-lease components and non-components, are included in the measurement of the Company’s lease liabilities to the extent that such payments are either fixed amounts or variable amounts based on a rate or index (fixed in substance) as stipulated in the lease contract. Any actual costs in excess of such amounts are expensed as incurred as variable lease cost. The Company’s lease agreements generally do not specify an implicit borrowing rate, and as such, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate by lease term, in order to calculate the present value of the future lease payments. The discount rate represents a risk-adjusted rate on a secured basis, and is the rate at which the Company would borrow funds to satisfy the scheduled lease liability payment streams commensurate with the lease term. On January 1, 2019, the discount rate used on existing leases at adoption was determined based on the remaining lease term using available data as of that date. The Company’s lease agreement for its warehouse space located in Louisville, Kentucky expired on August 31, 2020. As a result, the Company entered into a new five-year lease agreement in June 2020 for new warehouse space also located in Louisville, Kentucky. The monthly rent which commenced in September 2020 is $6,000 per month and increases approximately 3% annually thereafter. The ROU asset value added as a result of this new lease agreement was $279,024. The Company’s ROU asset and lease liability accounts reflect the inclusion of this new lease agreement on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2020. Certain of the Company’s lease agreements, primarily related to real estate, include options for the Company to either renew (extend) or early terminate the lease. Leases with renewal options allow the Company to extend the lease term typically between 1 and 3 years. Renewal options are reviewed at lease commencement to determine if such options are reasonably certain of being exercised, which could impact the lease term. When determining if a renewal option is reasonably certain of being exercised, the Company considers several factors, including but not limited to, significance of leasehold improvements incurred on the property, whether the asset is difficult to replace, or specific characteristics unique to the particular lease that would make it reasonably certain that the Company would exercise such option. In most cases, the Company has concluded that renewal and early termination options are not reasonably certain of being exercised by the Company (and thus not included in the Company’s ROU asset and lease liability) unless there is an economic, financial or business reason to do so. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, total operating lease cost was $113,257 and is recorded in cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses, dependent on the nature of the leased asset. The operating lease cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The following summarizes (i) the future minimum undiscounted lease payments under non-cancelable lease for the remainder of 2020 as well as each of the next five years and thereafter, incorporating the practical expedient to account for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for our existing real estate leases, (ii) a reconciliation of the undiscounted lease payments to the present value of the lease liabilities recognized, and (iii) the lease-related account balances on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet, as of September 30, 2020: Year Ended December 31, 2020 (excluding the nine months ended September 30, 2020) $ 22,546 2021 90,986 2022 93,385 2023 89,724 2024 80,000 2025 54,400 Total future minimum lease payments $ 431,041 Less imputed interest (110,264 ) Total present value of future minimum lease payments $ 320,777 As of September 30, 2020 Operating lease right-of-use assets $ 320,378 Other accrued expenses $ 52,199 Other long-term liabilities $ 268,578 $ 320,777 As of September 30, 2020 Weighted Average Remaining Lease Term 4.67 years Weighted Average Discount Rate 12.80 % Coronavirus – COVID-19 In early 2020, the coronavirus that causes COVID-19 was reported to have surfaced in China. The Company’s primary supply chain is located in China and other Asian-based locations. To date, the Company’s supply chain has not experienced any significant disruptions. The global spread of this virus has caused significant business disruption around the world including the United States, the primary area in which the Company operates and sells its products. The business disruption is currently expected to be temporary, however there is considerable uncertainty around the duration of the business disruption. Therefore, the Company expects this matter to continue to negatively impact the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. |
