Revenue
Current report
We reported net revenue of $3.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, a 59% increase. The increase in 2024 is primarily a result of increased sales of BolaWrap devices, cartridges and accessories of $532 thousand, added revenues of $287 thousand from the Company’s acquisition of Intrensic in August 2023, as well as approximately $151 thousand increase in Wrap Reality. We incurred discounts of $18 thousand during the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $64 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2023. We expect a decline to minimal discounts throughout 2024 as we have phased out our promotional upgrade offer.

We had $585 thousand of deferred revenue on June 30, 2024, of which $122 thousand is related to VR, $358 thousand is related to Intrensic, and $105 thousand is related to BolaWrap extended warranties and services. As we potentially secure increased bookings for Wrap Reality as well as BolaWrap extended warranties, we expect our deferred revenue to grow in future quarters.

Operating expense as of March 31, 2024 increased $363 thousand, or 8%, to $5.0 million from $4.6 million as of March 31, 2023.

Previous report
We reported net revenue of $1.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to $711 thousand for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, a 108% increase over the prior year. International revenue increased from $1 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2023, to $13 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2024. As expected, the discounts were reduced to $1 thousand for the first three months of 2024 as compared to $22 thousand in the comparable quarter of the prior year reflecting the phasing out of our promotional upgrade offer.
Previous report
International revenue generally consists of larger orders with the end user being large, centralized government agencies. These orders continue to be lumpy and difficult to predict as to both timing and amount. We believe that revenue during the fiscal year 2024 will increase overall compared to the revenue recorded during 2023 due to growth of domestic sales and anticipated international orders from a robust pipeline, although no assurances can be given.

As part of our efforts to expand our sales and distribution operations, we provide a comprehensive training program for law enforcement officers and trainers in using the BolaWrap. This training equips them with knowledge about the appropriate use and limitations of BolaWrap in tandem with modern policing techniques for de-escalation of encounters. We now focus on also teaching when and why BolaWrap should be used, including the specific area of success, such as after verbal commands break down and before the law enforcement officer is ready to escalate to less lethal pain compliance tools. We believe that law enforcement trainers and officers who have been trained to use our products, or have witnessed demonstrations, are more inclined to support the acquisition and deployment of our products by their respective departments to drive successful outcomes. As of March 31, 2024, over 1,480 agencies have received BolaWrap training with over 5,200 training officers at those agencies certified as BolaWrap instructors and qualified to train the rest of their departments, representing an 11% increase in agencies and a 13% increase in trained officers as compared to March 31, 2023.

Net cash used in operations during the three months ended March 31, 2024, was $657 thousand more than net cash used in operations during the three months ended March 31, 2023. This increase in net cash used in operations during the first three months of 2024 was primarily driven by a reduction in customer deposits.

Supply chain disruptions also affected our operations and could negatively impact our ability to source materials, manufacture and distribute products in the future. Moreover, financial markets continue to experience significant volatility, which could potentially affect our ability to enter into or modify favorable terms and conditions regarding equity and debt financing activities. Nevertheless, we had $8.2 million in cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments as of March 31, 2024. We therefore believe we have sufficient capital to fund our operations for the next twelve months. However, we may require additional working capital and liquidity constraints and access to capital markets could still negatively affect our liquidity and may require changes to our plan of operations.

We are responding to increased demand for training as a result of expanded product and brand awareness and increased successful field use by agencies but due to awareness expect continued reductions in product promotional costs from the prior year.
Current wording

Previous wording
As our revenue history is limited, historical margins may not accurately reflect future margins. However, we expect higher margins with the production of the BolaWrap 150 compared to previous production due to design changes and improved pricing. Our margins are also subject to variations based on the sales channels and product mix through which our products are sold. At present, our cassettes have lower margins than BolaWrap devices. As we scale cassette production, we will look to reduce our costs and drive higher cassette margins. Cassettes were a total of 15% of our overall revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2024, and will continue to grow as a recurring revenue base as more BolaWrap devices are in the field and the usage of BolaWrap increases due to the need of officers to de-escalate earlier to prevent injuries and use of higher levels of force.

As our revenue history is limited, historical margins may not accurately reflect future margins. However, we expect higher margins with the production of the BolaWrap 150 compared to previous production due to design changes and improved pricing. Our margins are also subject to variations based on the sales channels and product mix through which our products are sold. At present, our cassettes have lower margins than BolaWrap devices. As we scale cassette production, we will look to reduce our costs and drive higher cassette margins. Cassettes were a total of 13% of our overall revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2024, and will continue to grow as a recurring revenue base as more BolaWrap devices are in the field and the usage of BolaWrap increases due to the need of officers to de-escalate earlier to prevent injuries and use of higher levels of force.

We have experienced net losses and negative cash flows from operations since our inception. As of March 31, 2024, we had cash and cash equivalents of $8.2 million, negative working capital of $736 thousand primarily reflecting the $15.5 million value of the Series A Warrants recorded in connection with the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock in July 2023 and had sustained cumulative losses attributable to stockholders of $98.0 million. Our working capital net of the warrants-short term at March 31, 2024 was $2.6 million less compared to December 31, 2023, as a result of operating losses of $14.8 million as adjusted to exclude the $15.5 million related to the valuation of the Series A Warrants associated with the 2023 Series A Preferred Stock issuance. Our working capital as of March 31, 2024, was negatively affected by the continued operating losses during the prior twelve months. We believe we have sufficient capital to fund our operations for the next twelve months. However, liquidity constraints and access to capital markets could still negatively affect our liquidity and may require changes to our investment strategy.
