INTRUSION INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. | Description of Business |
Intrusion Inc. (together with its condensed consolidated subsidiaries, the “Company”, “Intrusion”, “Intrusion Inc.”, “we”, “us”, “our”, or similar terms) was organized in Texas in September 1983 and reincorporated in Delaware in October 1995. Our principal executive offices are located at 101 East Park Boulevard, Suite 1200, Plano, Texas 75074, and our telephone number is (972) 234-6400. Our website URL is www.intrusion.com.
The Company develops, sells, and supports products that protect any-sized company or government organization by fusing advanced threat intelligence with real-time mitigation to kill cyberattacks as they occur – including Zero-Days. The Company markets and distributes the Company’s solutions through value-added resellers, managed service providers and a direct sales force. The Company’s end-user customers include United States (“U.S.”) federal government entities, state and local government entities, and companies ranging in size from mid-market to large enterprises.
TraceCop (“TraceCop™”) and Savant (“Savant™”) are registered trademarks of Intrusion Inc. The Company has applied for trademark protection for the Company’s new INTRUSION Shield cybersecurity solution.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Item 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. All adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods have been made and are of a recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed herein. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for a full year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 1, 2024. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The Company calculates the fair value of its assets and liabilities which qualify as financial instruments and includes this additional information in the notes to condensed consolidated financial statements when the fair value is different from the carrying value of these financial instruments. The estimated fair value of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their carrying amounts due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments. Notes payable and financing and operating leases approximate fair value as they bear market rates of interest. None of these instruments are held for trading purposes.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As of March 31, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $0.1 million and a working capital deficit of $4.7 million. In addition, the Company has incurred net operating losses during the last four years. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date of these financial statements. The Company’s principal source of funding operations in the March 2024 quarter has been proceeds received from the issuance of notes payable to Management of $1.3 million and through the issuance of common stock using the Company’s ATM program which provided $0.5 million. Subsequent to March 31, 2024, through the date of these financial statements, the Company has received $5.7 million in net proceeds from the issuance of common stock in a series of transactions which include $2.6 million from a private placement, $2.5 million from ATM sales and $0.6 million from the exercise of warrants. As of May 10, 2024, the Company had $2.4 million in cash. Management plans to fund the operations of the Company through the issuance of common stock using a combination of the ATM and additional private placements. If the Company is not able to raise adequate funds under the Company’s ATM program or obtain additional equity financing, the Company may be unable to implement the Company’s business plan, fund its liquidity needs or even continue its operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
The audit opinion that accompanied the Company’s financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023, was qualified in that the Company’s auditors expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
Reverse Stock Split
The Company effected a reverse stock split of 1-for-20 on March 22, 2024. Unless otherwise stated, all share and per share amounts for all periods presented have been adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split.
3. | Right-of-use Asset and Leasing Liabilities |
The Company has operating and finance leases where it records the right-of-use assets and a related lease liability as required under the Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842. The lease liabilities are determined by the net present value of total lease payments and amortized over the life of the lease. The Company’s leases are for the following types of assets:
| · | Computer hardware and copy machines- The Company’s finance lease right-of-use assets consist of computer hardware and copy machines. These leases have a three-year life and are near completion. |
| · | Office space - The Company’s operating lease right-of-use assets include its rental agreements for its offices in Plano, TX, and a data service center in Allen, TX. The Plano offices operating lease expired on September 30, 2023. In October 2023, the Company signed a new lease with a term of eleven years and one month and commences upon completion of tenant improvements. The data service center operating lease liability has a life of one year and six months as of March 31, 2024. |
In accordance with ASC 842, the Company has elected practical expedients to combine lease and non-lease components, which consist principally of common area maintenance charges, for all classes of underlying assets and to exclude leases with an initial term of 12 months or less.
As the implicit rate is not readily determinable for the Company's lease agreements, the Company uses an estimated incremental borrowing rate to determine the initial present value of lease payments. This discount rate for the leases approximates the federal reserve’s prime rate.
For the three months ended March 21, 2024, and 2023, the Company had $5 thousand and $86 thousand, respectively, in lease payments related to operating leases and had $0.1 million and $14 thousand, respectively, in lease payments related to financing leases.

Security Purchase Agreement
On March 10, 2022, Intrusion Inc. entered into an unsecured loan agreement (“SPA”) with Streeterville Capital, LLC (“Streeterville”) whereby the Company issued two separate promissory notes of $5.4 million each with an initial rate of 7%. On March 10, 2022, the Company received $4.6 million in net funds from the first tranche (Note 1) pursuant to a promissory note executed contemporaneously with the execution of the loan agreement. On June 29, 2022, the Company received an additional $4.7 million in net funds from the second tranche (Note 2) pursuant to a promissory note. Each note has an 18-month maturity, may be prepaid subject to varying prepayment premiums, and may be redeemed at any time after six months into the term of such note in amounts up to $0.5 million per calendar month upon the noteholder’s election. On January 11, 2023, the Company amended the promissory notes issued pursuant to the unsecured loan agreement with Streeterville whereby the noteholder agreed to waive their redemption rights through March 31, 2023, in exchange for a fee equal to 3.75% of the outstanding principal balance which increased the outstanding indebtedness due at maturity with Streeterville and increased the associated debt issuance costs recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets by $0.4 million. On August 2, 2023, the Company entered into a Forbearance Agreement with Streeterville which was subsequently amended on August 7, 2023. The Forbearance Agreement and amendment extended the maturity dates for each Note by twelve months to September 2024 and December 2024. In consideration of the extension of the maturity dates, the Company entered into a Security Agreement with Streeterville, dated August 2, 2023 (the “Security Agreement”), under which Streeterville was granted a first-position security interest in all assets of the Company.
In March 2024, the Company entered into an agreement with Streeterville to exchange $0.2 million in principal for 52.2 thousand shares of common stock. Also in March 2024, the Company exchanged $9.3 million in Streeterville debt for 9.3 thousand shares of newly created Series A Preferred. The issuance of both common and preferred shares was made pursuant to the exemption from the registration requirements afforded by the Securities Act, as amended. The designations for the Series A Preferred preclude the Company from repaying any indebtedness for so long as any Series A Preferred shares are outstanding. The Series A Preferred have a stated value of $1,100 per share and are subject to preferences and designations as more fully described in our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation filed on March 15, 2024, see also Note 6 Stockholders’ Equity. Following the exchanges noted herein, the remaining balance on Note One was $0.5 million. The maturity date for Note One is September 2024 which conflicts with the Series A Preferred designation prohibiting repayment of any indebtedness.
For the three months ended March 31, 2023 the Company recorded $0.4 million of interest expense, respectively in the condensed consolidated statement of operations associated with interest accretion and amortization of debt issue costs. As a result of exchanging $9.5 million principal in aggregate for equity, the Company reversed the interest accretion associated with the ability to stock-settle principal redemptions and wrote off the balance of unamortized debt issuance costs of $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. Simple interest of $0.2 million was incurred for both the three months ended March 31, 2024, and 2023.
Scott Notes Payable
During the period ended March 2024, the Company entered into two separate note purchase agreements with the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Anthony Scott. On January 2, 2024, Scott purchased a note payable in the principal amount of $1.1 million in exchange for $1.0 million in cash. The note called for weekly payments of $40 thousand until maturity on June 15, 2024. Interest accrued on the balance of the note at 7% per annum compounding daily. During the period ended March 31, 2024, the Company made $0.2 million in principal payments on the first note payable.
On March 20, 2024, Scott purchased a second note payable in the principal amount of $343 thousand in exchange for $340 thousand in cash. The note was non-interest bearing and matured on April 19, 2024. On April 2nd, the Company reduced the principal balance due under the note by $101 thousand which reflected the amount due from Scott for the exercise of common stock purchase warrants.
On March 31, 2024, the balance outstanding under both notes was $1.2 million. The Company recorded interest of $16 thousand for both notes in the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations for the period ended March 31, 2024. For the period ended March 31, 2024, $65 thousand in amortization of debt issuance cost was recorded.
On April 19, 2024, Scott entered into a private placement subscription agreement to convert the aggregate outstanding balance of $1.1 million for both notes in exchange for common stock and common stock purchase warrants. See Note 11 Subsequent Events for more information pertaining to the private placement offering.
5. | Commitments and Contingencies |
The Company is periodically involved in various litigation claims asserted in the normal course of its business. The Company believes these actions are routine and incidental to the business. While the outcome of these actions cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company does not believe that any will have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business.
Stockholder Derivative Claim
On June 3, 2022, a verified stockholder derivative complaint was filed in U.S. District Court, District of Delaware (the “Court”) by the Plaintiff Stockholder on behalf of Intrusion against certain of the Company’s Defendants. Plaintiff alleges that Defendants through various actions breached their fiduciary duties, wasted corporate assets, and unjustly enriched Defendants by (a) incurring costs and expenses in connection with the ongoing SEC investigation, (b) incurring costs and expenses to defend the Company with respect to the consolidated class action, (c) settling class-wide liability with respect to the consolidated class action, as well as ancillary claims regarding sales of the Company’s common stock by certain of the Defendants. On September 28, 2023, the Company agreed to settle the claim. On October 2, 2023, public notice of the settlement was given. The settlement agreement provides in part for (i) an amendment to the Company’s Bylaws, committee Charters, and other applicable corporate policies to implement certain measures set forth more fully therein, to remain in effect for no less than three years; (ii) attorneys’ fees and expenses to plaintiff’s counsel of $0.3 million; and (iii) the dismissal of all claims against the Defendants, including the Company, in connection with the action. The $0.3 million settlement payment was made by the Company’s insurance provider under its insurance policy since the Company’s $0.5 million retention was previously exhausted. On April 3, 2024, the Court approved the settlement.
In addition to these legal proceedings, the Company is subject to various other claims that may arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company does not believe that any claims exist where the outcome of such matters would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial position, operating results, or cash flows. However, there can be no assurance such legal proceedings will not have a material impact on the Company’s future results.
Series A Preferred Stock
On March 15, 2024, the Company filed a certificate of designation of preferences and rights (the “Certificate of Designation”) of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Series A Stock”), with the Secretary of State of Delaware, designating 20,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 of the Company, as Series A Preferred Stock. Each share of Series A Stock shall have a stated face value of $1,100.00 (“Stated Value”). The Series A Stock is not convertible into common shares of capital stock of the Company and as such is non-dilutive to current stockholders.
Each share of Series A Stock shall accrue a rate of return on the Stated Value at the rate of 10% per year, compounded annually from the date of issuance and payable quarterly in cash or the issuance of additional shares of Series A Stock.
Commencing on the one-year anniversary of the issuance date of each share of Series A Stock to the two-year anniversary, each share of Series A Stock shall accrue an automatic quarterly dividend, calculated on the Stated Value at a rate of 2.5% per quarter. For all periods following the two-year anniversary of the issuance date of each share of Series A Stock, the quarterly dividend shall be 5%. The quarterly dividend shall be payable quarterly in cash or the issuance of additional shares of Series A Stock. In the event the Company is unable to pay the Quarterly Dividend of Preferred Return in cash and no remaining shares of Series A Stock are available for issuance, the Quarterly Dividend and Preferred Return will continue to accrue until such time the Company can make payment. The Company classified the Series A Preferred Stock as equity as all events that could trigger redemption are fully within the Company’s control.
On March 15, 2024, the Company entered into an Exchange Agreement with Streeterville Capital that exchanged $9.3 million in debt for 9,275 shares of newly created Series A Preferred Stock.
ATM Offering
B. Riley Securities, Inc. acts as sales agent for the Company’s ATM program, which allows the Company to potentially sell up to $50.0 million of the Company’s common stock using a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 filed on August 5, 2021. On March 31, 2023, the date the Company filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, the Company became subject to the offering limits in General Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3. As a result, the Company filed a prospectus supplement to the prospectus relating to the registration of offerings under the program that reduced the amount the Company may sell to aggregate proceeds of up to $15 million. For the period ended March 31, 2024, the Company received proceeds of approximately $0.5 million net of fees from the sale of common stock pursuant to the program. As of March 31, 2024, the Company has received proceeds of approximately $12.7 million net of fees from the sales of 613 thousand shares of common stock since the inception of the program.
Common Stock Warrants
On March 31, 2024, the Company had 60,641 warrants to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $104.40 and warrants to purchase 435,926 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $12.00.
The Company recognizes product revenue upon shipment or after meeting certain performance obligations. These products can include hardware, software subscriptions and consulting services. The Company also offers software on a subscription basis subject to software as a service (“SaaS”). Warranty costs have not been material.
The Company recognizes sales of the Company’s datasets in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 606 whereby revenue from contracts with customers are recognized once the criteria under the five steps below have been met:
| i) | identification of the contract with a customer; |
| | |
| ii) | identification of the performance obligations in the contract; |
| | |
| iii) | determination of the transaction price; |
| | |
| iv) | allocation of the transaction price to the separate performance obligations; and |
| | |
| v) | recognize revenue upon satisfaction of a performance obligation. |
Consulting services include reporting and are typically done monthly, and revenue is matched accordingly. Product sales may include maintenance and customer support allocated revenue in an arrangement using estimated selling prices of the delivered goods and services based on a selling price hierarchy using the relative selling price method. All product offering and service offering market values are readily determined based on current and prior stand-alone sales. The Company defers and recognizes maintenance, updates, and support revenue over the term of the contract period, which is generally one year.
Normal payment terms offered to customers, distributors and resellers are net 30 days domestically. The Company does not offer payment terms that extend beyond one year and rarely does it extend payment terms beyond its normal terms. If certain customers do not meet its credit standards, the Company typically requires payment in advance to limit its credit exposure.
With the Company’s newest product, INTRUSION Shield, the Company began offering software on a subscription basis. INTRUSION Shield is a hosted arrangement subject to SaaS guidance under ASC 606. SaaS arrangements are accounted for as subscription services, not arrangements that transfer a license of intellectual property.
The Company utilizes the five-step process, mentioned above, per FASB ASC Topic 606 to recognize sales and will follow that directive, also, to define revenue items as individual and distinct. INTRUSION Shield services provided to its customers for a fixed monthly subscription fee include:
| · | access to Intrusion’s proprietary software and database to detect and prevent unauthorized access to its clients’ information networks; |
| · | use of all software, associated media, printed materials, data, files, online documentation, and any equipment that Intrusion provides for customers to access the INTRUSION Shield; and |
| · | tech support, post contract customer support (PCS) includes daily program releases or corrections provided by Intrusion without additional charge. |
INTRUSION Shield contracts provide for no other services, and the Company’s customers have no rebates or return rights, nor are any such rights anticipated to be offered as part of this service.
The Company satisfies its performance obligation when the INTRUSION Shield solution is available to detect and prevent unauthorized access to a client’s information networks. Revenue should be recognized monthly over the term of the contract. The Company’s standard initial contract terms automatically renew unless notice is given 30 days before renewal. Upfront payment of fees is deferred and amortized into income over the period covered by the contract.
The Company’s accounts receivable represents unconditional contract billings for sales per contracts with customers and are classified as current assets. As of March 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, the Company had accounts receivable balances of $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, the Company had an allowance for credit losses of $0.1 million.
The Company classifies its contract assets as receivables because the Company generally has an unconditional right to payment for the Company’s sales or services performed at the end of the reporting period.
Contract liabilities consist of cash payments in advance of the Company satisfying performance obligations and recognizing revenue. The Company currently classifies deferred revenue as a contract liability.
The following table presents changes in the Company’s contract liability during the period ended March 31, 2024, and the year ended December 31, 2023 (in thousands):
Schedule of contract liability | | | | | | |
| | March 31, 2024 | | | December 31, 2023 | |
Balance at beginning of period | | $ | 439 | | | $ | 455 | |
Additions | | | 1,565 | | | | 4,727 | |
Revenue recognized | | | (1,089 | ) | | | (4,743 | ) |
Balance at end of period | | $ | 915 | | | $ | 439 | |
8. | Capitalized Software Development |
The Company capitalizes internally developed software using the Agile software development methodology which allows the Company to accurately track, and record costs associated with new software development and enhancements.
Pursuant to ASC Topic 350-40 Internal Use Software Accounting Capitalization, certain development costs related to the Company’s products during the application development stage are capitalized as part of property and equipment. Costs incurred in the preliminary stages of development are expensed as incurred. The preliminary stage includes such activities as conceptual formulation of alternatives, evaluation of alternatives, determination of existence of needed technology, and the final selection of alternatives. Once the application development stage is reached, internal and external costs are capitalized until the software is complete and ready for its intended use. Capitalized internal use software is amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life, which is generally three years.
The Company reports two separate net loss per share numbers, basic and diluted. Basic net loss attributable to common stockholders per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net loss attributable to common stockholders per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding for the period. The common stock equivalents include all common stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding warrants, options and vesting of restricted stock awards. The aggregate number of common stock equivalents excluded from the diluted loss per share calculation for the periods ended March 31, 2024, and 2023 totaled 183 and 46 thousand shares, respectively. Since the Company is in a net loss position for the periods ended March 31, 2024, and 2023, basic and dilutive net loss per share is the same.
10. | Related Party Transactions |
On January 2, 2024, the Company entered into an invoice financing arrangement pursuant to a note purchase agreement with Anthony Scott, President, and Chief Executive Officer of the Company (“Scott”), according to which, among other things, Scott purchased from the Company a promissory note (the “Promissory Note”) in the aggregate principal amount of $1.1 million in exchange for $1.0 million to the Company. Under the Promissory Note, the Company shall make Weekly Payments to Scott in the amount of $40 thousand per week. Interest accrues on the balance of the Promissory Note at a rate of 7.0% per annum, compounded daily. In connection with the issuance of the Promissory Note, the Company and Scott also entered into a security agreement, which provides, according to its terms, a security interest in all accounts receivable or other receivables now existing or subsequently created prior to the payment of the Promissory Note, subject to prior permitted liens.
On March 20, 2024, the Company entered into an additional invoice financing arrangement pursuant to a note purchase agreement with Scott, according to which, among other things, Scott purchased from the Company a second Promissory Note 2 in the aggregate principal amount of $343 thousand in exchange for $340 thousand to the Company. The Promissory Note 2 is non-interest bearing and matures on April 19, 2024.
See additional discussion regarding these transactions that occurred subsequent to March 31, 2024, below.
On April 3, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement with Streeterville to exchange 91 shares of Series A Preferred Stock with an aggregate stated value of $100 thousand for 32.2 thousand shares of common stock. The issuance of the exchange shares is pursuant to the exemption from the registration requirements afforded by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
On April 1, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors approved entry into an inducement letter that provides, during the period beginning on April 2, 2024 and continuing through April 23, 2024, for the lowering of the exercise price of all outstanding warrants and, for each share of common stock exercised under the Warrants, providing the participating Warrant holder with a New Warrant for that same number of shares of common stock. The reduced exercise price of the Warrants is $3.04, which includes $0.13 per share that is attributable to the purchase price of the New Warrant. The New Warrant exercise price is $2.91 with an exercise period of five years. On April 8, 2024, certain holders of the Warrants exercised 181 thousand shares of the Company’s common stock resulting in gross proceeds of $0.6 million and the issuance of 186.5 thousand New Warrants. The issuance of New Warrants was undertaken pursuant to the exemption from registration provided in Rule 506(b) under Regulation D pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
On April 22, 2024, entered into a private placement subscription agreement pursuant to which the Company sold to purchasers in an Offering an aggregate of 1.3 million shares of its common stock, each of which is coupled with a warrant to purchase two shares of common stock at an aggregate offering price of $1.95 per share. None of the shares of common stock or shares underlying the warrants have been registered for resale under the Securities Act of 1933 as amended. The Company received gross proceeds of approximately $2.6 million from this private placement subscription.
On April 22, 2024, the Company announced that the Company believes it has stockholders’ equity above the $2.5 million requirement to regain compliance with the Nasdaq’s Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) as a result of the Offering, along with proceeds received from the warrant exercise inducement letters. The Company provided an update to the Nasdaq Hearings Panel on how it plans to maintain long-term compliance with the Equity Rule. On May 1, 2024, the Company received written notice from the Listing Qualifications Staff of the Nasdaq informing that it has regained compliance with the minimum bid price and equity requirements with the Nasdaq’s Listing Rule 5550(b)(1).

Overview
Intrusion offers businesses of all sizes and industries products and services that leverage the Company’s exclusive threat intelligence database of over 8.5 billion IP addresses and domain names. After many years of gathering intelligence and providing our INTRUSION TraceCop and Savant solutions exclusively to government entities, we released our first commercial product in 2021, the INTRUSION Shield. INTRUSION Shield was designed to allow businesses to incorporate a Zero Trust, reputation-based security solution into their existing infrastructure to observe traffic flow and instantly block known malicious or unknown connections from both entering or exiting a network, making it an ideal solution for protecting from Zero-Day and ransomware attacks.
As discussed in more detail below on March 31, 2024, we had $0.1 million in cash. Subsequent to March 31, 2024, we raised $5.7 million in net proceeds through the issuance of common stock using our ATM program, a private placement offering and the exercise of warrants resulting from a warrant inducement offering. As of May 10, 2024, we had $2.4 million in cash. If we are not able to raise adequate funds under the Company’s ATM program or obtain additional equity financing, the Company may be unable to implement the Company’s business plan, fund its liquidity needs or even continue its operations.

Revenues. Revenue for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, was $1.1 million compared to $1.3 million for the same period in 2023. Revenue from consulting totaled $0.7 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, compared to $1.0 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2023. The continuing resolution and delay in the approval of a federal budget for the 2024 year which did not occur until March 22, 2024, impacted renewals and task orders received for long-standing contracts which resulted in a decline in consulting revenues. We will continue to pursue new consulting opportunities and expect to see an increase in consulting revenues beginning in the second quarter of 2024. INTRUSION Shield revenues were $0.4 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, compared to $0.3 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2023. We have begun to see some traction in INTRUSION Shield sales with the recent addition of seven new logos and the award of a large contract for the Philippine national elections. These new customers will begin to contribute to revenues more meaningfully in the second half of 2024. We have also been informed by a large early INTRUSION Shield customer that they will not be renewing their INTRUSION Shield contract. The customer was one of the original users of an early version of the INTRUSION Shield product and had implemented a highly customized and non-standard configuration of the product. We believe that the INTRUSION Shield transactions booked in the fourth quarter of 2023 and during the first quarter of 2024 and the several transactions that we anticipate will close in the second quarter of this year will offset this loss and help drive INTRUSION Shield revenue growth in 2024.
Concentration of Revenues. Revenues from sales to various U.S. government entities totaled $0.7 million, or 58.6% of revenues, for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, compared to $0.6 million, or 48.4% of revenues, for the same period in 2023. Although we expect our concentration of revenues to vary among customers in future periods depending upon the timing of certain sales, we anticipate that sales to government customers will continue to account for a significant portion of our revenues in future periods. Sales to the government present risks in addition to those involved in sales to commercial customers which could adversely affect our revenues, including, without limitation, potential disruption to appropriation and spending patterns and the government’s reservation of the right to cancel contracts and purchase orders for its convenience. Although we do not anticipate that any of our revenues from government customers will be renegotiated, cancelled or renegotiated government orders could have a material adverse effect on our financial results. The Company has one commercial customer in the first quarter of 2024 that accounted for 30.0% of total revenue. This customer has chosen not to renew their INTRUSION Shield contract. There were two customers accounting for 46.6% of total revenue for the same three-month period in 2023. The Company’s similar product and service offerings are not viewed as individual segments, as its management analyzes the business as a whole and expenses are not allocated to each product offering.
Gross Profit. Gross profit was $0.9 million or 80.0% of revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, compared to $1.0 million or 76.1% of revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2023. The increased gross profit margin is a result of a change in product mix with INTRUSION Shield revenues representing 38.5% of our revenue mix compared to 27.3% in the same period 2023.
Operating Expenses. Operating expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, totaled $3.4 million, a 33.0% decrease when compared to $5.0 million for the same period in 2023. The decrease was most notably due to a reduction in staffing and contract labor expenses which totaled $1.1 million in addition to reduced spend on sales and marketing of $0.2 million and reduced litigation defense costs of $0.1 million.
In late March 2023 we implemented cost reduction measures that resulted in the reduction of sixteen permanent positions, the reduced use of contractors and renegotiating or replacing spend on certain sales support and marketing services with less costly programs. Headcount on March 31, 2024, was forty-nine compared to sixty-six for the 2023 period when adjusted for the reductions that took place in late March 2023. Many of the reductions were in Research and Development, which will impact the number and frequency of product releases. As we grow our customer base and increase our revenues, we may choose to accelerate our product development in future periods, which would result in increased spending.
Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expenses decreased to $1.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, compared to $1.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023. The 2024 period includes approximately $0.2 million in one-time negotiated contract savings. When adjusted for these one-time savings, the first quarter 2024 expense is more representative of the anticipated spend going forward although, certain discretionary spend, inclusive of participation in trade shows, utilization of third-party contractors for content and product messaging and travel, are likely to vary over time based on savings initiatives that may be necessary.
Research and Development. Research and development expenses totaled $1.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, an $0.8 million decrease compared to the same period in 2023. The savings are a result of cost reduction measures implemented in late March 2023 which included the reduction of 13 FTEs and the reduced use of contractors. Research and development costs may vary over time as we determine the frequency of new releases, improved functionality and enhancements needed to be competitive with our product offering.
General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses totaled $1.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, compared to $1.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023. The reduction is primarily due to one-time negotiated cost savings of $0.1 million and legal defense costs incurred in the 2023 period of $0.1 million for matters that have since been settled.
Interest Expense. Interest expense for the period March 31, 2024 was $0.2 million consisting principally of the stated interest related to the Streeterville notes, interest associated with the note’s payable issued to Scott, our CEO and finance leases. Interest expense for the period March 31, 2023 was $0.3 million. Interest expense will vary in the future based on our cash flow and borrowing needs.
Interest Accretion and Amortization of Debt Issuance Costs. During the March 2024 quarter, the Company entered into exchange agreements to convert $9.5 million in Streeterville debt to $9.3 million of Series A preferred stock and $0.2 million to common stock and, as a result, the Company reversed the interest accretion associated with the ability to stock-settle principal redemptions and wrote-off the remaining deferred debt issue costs resulting in a net credit to interest expense of $1.0 million. For the March 2023 quarter, the interest accretion and amortization of debt issuance costs was $0.4 million.
Other (Expense) Income, Net. Other income and expense were nominal amounts for both the periods ended March 31, 2024, and 2023.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2024, we had cash and cash equivalents of $0.1 million and a working capital deficit of $(4.7) million. Subsequent to March 31, 2024, we raised $5.7 million in net proceeds through the issuance of common stock using our ATM program, a private placement and a warrant inducement offering. As of May 10, 2024, we had $2.4 million in cash. Management plans to fund the operations of the Company through the continued use of the ATM and or additional equity financings. If the Company is not able to raise adequate funds, the Company may be unable to implement the Company’s business plan, fund its liquidity needs or even continue its operations.
Sources of Liquidity
Our principal sources of cash for funding operations in the March 2024 quarter was through the issuance of notes payable to Scott of $1.3 million and the issuance of common stock using the Company’s ATM program which provided $0.5 million. Our principal source of cash for funding operations in 2023 was through changes in working capital which consisted principally of $1.4 million in Employee Retention Tax Credit refunds recorded in 2022.
At-The-Market Program
B. Riley Securities, Inc. acts as sales agent under the Company’s at-the-market program, which allowed us to potentially sell up to $50.0 million of its common stock using the shelf registration statement on Form S-3 filed on August 5, 2021. On April 11, 2023, Instruction I.B.6 of Form S-3 and in agreement with the terms of the sales agreement, the company revised the aggregate offering price of shares of common stock that we can sell pursuant to the ATM program to $15 million. For the quarter ended March 31, 2024, we received $0.5 million, net of fees for sales of common stock were made pursuant to the program. As of March 31, 2024, the remaining aggregate offering price of shares of common stock that we can sell pursuant to the ATM program based on gross proceeds was $9.6 million.
Notes Payable
In March 2024, we entered into an agreement with Streeterville to exchange $0.2 million in principal for 52.2 thousand shares of common stock. Also in March 2024, we exchanged $9.3 million in Streeterville debt for 9,275 shares of our newly created Series A Preferred. The issuance of both common and preferred shares was made pursuant to the exemption from the registration requirements afforded by the Securities Act, as amended. The designations for the Series A Preferred preclude the Company from repaying any indebtedness for so long as any Series A Preferred shares are outstanding. The Series A Preferred have a stated value of $1,100 per share and are subject to preferences and designations as more fully described in our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation filed on March 15, 2024. Following the exchanges noted herein, the remaining balance on Note One was $0.5 million. The maturity date for Note One is September 2024 which conflicts with the Series A Preferred designation prohibiting repayment of any indebtedness. We are in discussions with Streeterville to modify the terms of the Note One agreement.
During the March 2024 quarter we entered into two separate note purchase agreements with our Chief Executive Officer, Anthony Scott. On January 2, 2024, Scott purchased a note payable in the principal amount of $1.1 million in exchange for $1.0 million in cash. The note called for weekly payments of $40,000 until maturity on June 15, 2024. Interest accrued on the balance of the note at 7% per annum compounding daily. During the quarter we made $200 thousand in principal payments, on March 31, 2024, the balance outstanding under this note was $0.9 million.
On March 20, 2024, Scott purchased a second note payable in the principal amount of $343 thousand in exchange for $340 thousand in cash. The note was non-interest bearing and matured on April 19, 2024. On April 2nd, we reduced the principal balance due under the note by $101 thousand which reflected the amount due from Scott for the exercise of common stock purchase warrants.
On April 19, 2024, Scott entered into a private placement subscription agreement to convert the aggregate outstanding balance of $1.1 million for both notes in exchange for common stock and common stock purchase warrants. See Note 11 Subsequent Events for more information pertaining to the private placement offering.

Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates
Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and related disclosures. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Actual results may differ from these estimates. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and our actual results, our future financial statements will be affected.
We believe the critical accounting policies and estimates discussed under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on April 1, 2024, reflect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements. There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as filed in such report.
Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Not applicable.
Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and we must apply our reasonable judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of potential disclosure controls and procedures.
As of March 31, 2024, our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures and concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2024.
There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2024, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Stockholder Derivative Claim
On June 3, 2022, a stockholder derivative complaint was filed in U.S. District Court, District of Delaware the Court by the Plaintiff Stockholder on behalf of Intrusion against Defendants. Plaintiff alleges that Defendants through various actions breached their fiduciary duties, wasted corporate assets, and unjustly enriched Defendants by (a) incurring costs and expenses in connection with the ongoing SEC investigation, (b) incurring costs and expenses to defend us with respect to the consolidated class action, (c) settling class-wide liability with respect to the consolidated class action, as well as ancillary claims regarding sales of our common stock by certain of the Defendants. On September 28, 2023, we agreed to settle the claim. On October 2, 2023, public notice of the settlement agreement was given. The settlement agreement provides in part for (i) an amendment to our Bylaws, committee Charters, and other applicable corporate policies to implement certain measures set forth more fully therein, to remain in effect for no less than three years; (ii) attorneys’ fees and expenses to plaintiff’s counsel of $0.3 million; and (iii) the dismissal of all claims against the Defendants, including the Company, in connection with the action. The $0.3 million settlement payment was made by our insurance provider under our insurance policy since our $0.5 million retention was previously exhausted. On April 3, 2024, the Court approved the settlement.
In addition to these legal proceedings, we are subject to various other claims that may arise in the ordinary course of business. We do not believe that any claims exist where the outcome of such matters would have a material adverse effect on our condensed consolidated financial position, operating results, or cash flows. However, there can be no assurance such legal proceedings will not have a material impact on our future results.
Item 1A. RISK FACTORS
In addition to the information set forth elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the risk factor set forth below, you should carefully consider the risk factors we previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on April 1, 2024, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the “Annual Report”). These risks could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. However, these risks are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial also may impair our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
