Basis of Presentation
The unaudited financial statements included herein have been prepared by us without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the SEC on April 1, 2024. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted as permitted by the SEC, although we believe the disclosures that are made are adequate to make the information presented herein not misleading.
The accompanying unaudited financial statements reflect, in our opinion, all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position on September 30, 2024, and the results of our operations and cash flows for the periods presented. We derived the December 31, 2023, balance sheet data from audited financial statements; however, we did not include all disclosures required by GAAP.
Interim results are subject to seasonal variations, and the results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Significant accounting estimates in these financial statements include valuation assumptions for share-based payments, allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory reserves, accrual for warranty reserves, the carrying value of long-lived assets and intangible assets, income tax valuation allowances, and the allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in our contracts with customers.
Revenue Recognition
The Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (the “FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customer (Topic 606) (“ASC 606”) on January 1, 2018, and the Company elected to use the modified retrospective transition method which requires application of ASC 606 to uncompleted contracts at the date of adoption. The adoption of ASC 606 did not have a material impact on the financial statements.
Under ASC 606, the Company must identify the contract with a customer, identify the performance obligations in the contract, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies a performance obligation. Significant judgment is necessary when making these determinations.
The Company’s primary sources of revenue are derived from simulator and accessories sales, training and installation, the sale of customizable software and the sale of extended service-type warranties. The Company’s policy is to typically invoice upon completion of installation and/or training until such a time the performance obligations that have been satisfied are included in unbilled. Sales discounts are presented in the financial statements as reductions in determining net revenues. Credit sales are recorded as current assets (accounts receivable and unbilled revenue). Prepaid deposits received at the time of sale and extended warranties purchased are recorded as current and long-term liabilities (deferred revenue) until earned. The following briefly summarizes the nature of our performance obligations and method of revenue recognition:
| Performance Obligation | Method of Recognition |
|---|---|
| Simulator and accessories | Upon transfer of control |
| STEP Program | Deferred and recognized over the life of the contract |
| Installation and training | Upon completion or over the period of services being rendered |
| Extended service-type warranty | Deferred and recognized over the life of the extended warranty |
| Customized software and content | Upon transfer of control or over the period services are performed depending on the terms of the contract |
| Customized content scenario | As performance obligation is transferred over time (input method using time and materials expanded) |
| Design and prototyping | Recognized at the completion of each agreed upon milestone |
| Sales-based royalty exchanged for license of intellectual property | Recognized as the performance obligation is satisfied over time – which is as the sales occur. |
The Company recognizes revenue upon transfer of control or upon completion of the services for the simulator and accessories; for the installation and training and customized software performance obligations as the customer has the right and ability to direct the use of these products and services and the customer obtains substantially all of the remaining benefit from these products and services at that time. Revenue from certain customized content contracts may be recognized over the period the services are performed based on the terms of the contract. For the sales-based royalty exchanged for license of intellectual property, the Company recognized revenue as the sales occur over time.
The Company recognizes revenue on a straight-line basis over the period of services being rendered for the extended service-type warranties as these warranties represent a performance obligation to “stand ready to perform” over the duration of the warranties. As such, the warranty service is performed continuously over the warranty period.
Each contract states the transaction price. The contracts do not include variable consideration, significant financing components or non-cash consideration. The Company has elected to exclude sales and similar taxes from the measurement of the transaction price. The contract’s transaction price is allocated to the performance obligations based upon their stand-alone selling prices. Discounts on the stand-alone selling prices, if any, are allocated proportionately to each performance obligation.
Disaggregation of Revenue
Under ASC 606, disaggregated revenue from contracts with customers depicts the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows affected by economic factors. The Company has evaluated revenues recognized and the following table illustrates the disaggregation disclosure by customer’s location and performance obligation.

Commercial customers include selling through prime contractors for military or law enforcement contracts domestically and until it becomes a larger portion of the revenue will include any healthcare sales. Government customers are defined as directly selling to government agencies. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, governmental customers comprised $6,855,424 or 91% of total net sales, commercial customers comprised $204,800 or 3% of total net sales and international customers comprised $424,045 or 6% of total net sales. By comparison, for the three months ended September 30, 2023, governmental customers comprised $7,338,205, or 97% of total net sales, commercial customers comprised $44,853 or 1% of total net sales and international customers comprised $178,524, or 2% of total net sales. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, governmental customers comprised $18,840,601 or 87% of total net sales, commercial customers comprised $493,348 or 2% of total net sales and international customers comprised $2,319,758 or 11% of total net sales. By comparison, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, governmental customers comprised $23,151,320 or 82% of total net sales, commercial customers comprised $717,036 or 3% of total net sales and international customers comprised $4,057,064, or 15% of total net sales. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, the Company recorded $2,867,023 and $2,532,223, respectively, in STEP revenue, or 13% and 9%, respectively, of total net sales.
Customer Deposits
Customer deposits consist of prepaid deposits received for equipment purchase orders and for Subscription Training Equipment Partnership (“STEP”) operating agreements that expire annually. Customer deposits are considered a deferred liability until the completion of the customer’s contract performance obligation. When revenue is recognized, the deposit is applied to the customer’s receivable balance. Customer deposits are recorded as a current liability under deferred revenue on the accompanying balance sheet and totaled $3,017,347 and $4,047,269 on September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively. Changes in deferred revenue amounts related to customer deposits will fluctuate from year to year based upon the mix of customers required to prepay deposits under the Company’s credit policy. The decrease in deferred revenue from December was due to the Company converting the deposits into revenue as we delivered on our obligations.
Warranty
The Company warranties its products from manufacturing defects on a limited basis for a period of one year after purchase, but also sells separately priced extended service-type warranties for periods of up to four years after the expiration of the standard one-year warranty. During the term of the initial one-year warranty, if the device fails to operate properly from defects in materials and workmanship, the Company will fix or replace the defective product. Deferred revenue for separately priced extended warranties one year or less totaled $1,719,336 and $2,627,763 as of September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively. Deferred revenue for separately priced extended warranties longer than one year totaled $2,930,779 and $2,974,710 as of September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively. The accrual for the one-year manufacturer’s warranty liability totaled $295,000 and $354,000 as of September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively. We did see a change in the amount of warranty repairs, due to new quality controls and equipment, so we were able to decrease our warranty liability. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, the Company recognized revenue of $3,656,944 and $2,439,199, respectively, related to the extended service-type warranties that was amortized from the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of each period. Changes in deferred revenue amounts related to extended service-type warranties will fluctuate from year to year based upon the average remaining life of the warranties at the beginning of the period and new extended service-type warranties sold during the period.
Concentration of Credit Risk and Major Customers and Suppliers
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents, certificates of deposit, and accounts receivable.
The Company’s cash, cash equivalents and certificates of deposit are maintained with financial institutions with high credit standings and are FDIC insured deposits. The FDIC insures deposits according to the ownership category in which the funds are insured and how the accounts are titled. The standard deposit insurance coverage limit is $250,000 per depositor, per FDIC-insured bank, per ownership category. The Company had uninsured cash and cash equivalents of $19,168,455 and $18,349,842 as of September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively.
Sales are typically made on credit and the Company generally does not require collateral. Management performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and maintains an allowance for estimated losses. Historically, the Company has experienced minimal charges relative to doubtful accounts.
Historically, the Company primarily sells its products to U.S. federal and state agencies.
As of September 30, 2024, the Company had three customers that accounted for 30%,14%, and 11% respectively, of total accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2023, the Company had customers that accounted for 28% and 14% of total accounts receivable.
As of September 30, 2024, the Company had two suppliers that accounted for 16% and 11% of the total accounts payable.
For the three months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, the Company had a customer that accounted for 10% of total revenue and one customer that accounted for 16% of total revenue, respectively. For the nine months ending Sept 30, 2024 no single customer exceeded 10%
Net Income per Common Share
The net income per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income per share reflects the potential dilution, using the treasury stock method, that would occur if outstanding stock options and warrants were exercised.

Note 5. Leases
The Company leases approximately 37,729 rentable square feet of office and warehouse space from an unaffiliated third party for our former corporate office, manufacturing, assembly, warehouse, and shipping facility located at 7970 South Kyrene Road, Tempe, Arizona 85284. From 2016 through March 2019, the Company leased approximately 4,529 rentable square feet of office and industrial space from an unaffiliated third party for our machine shop at 2169 East 5th Street, Tempe, Arizona 85284. In April 2019, the Company relocated the machine shop from the 5th Street location to 7910 South Kyrene Road, located within the same business complex as our main office. The Company executed a lease amendment to add an additional 5,131 rentable square feet for the machine shop and extended its existing office lease through April 2024. On June 1, 2022, we entered a new lease of approximately 9,350 square feet located at 12301 Challenger Parkway, Orlando, Florida, from an unaffiliated third party through May 2027.
The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any residual value guarantees, restrictive covenants, or variable lease payments. The Company has not entered into any financing leases.
In addition to base rent, the Company’s lease generally provides for additional payments for other charges, such as rental tax. The lease includes fixed rent escalations. The Company’s lease does not include an option to renew.
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are recorded in operating lease right of use assets, net, operating lease liability – short-term, and operating lease liability – long-term on its balance sheets.
Operating lease assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent its obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As the Company’s lease does not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate used at adoption was 4.5%. Significant judgement is required when determining the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. The Company uses the implicit rate when readily determinable. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Effective June 1, 2022, the Company obtained a right-of-use asset in exchange for a new operating lease liability in the amount of $840,855. Effective January 1, 2019, the Company obtained a right-of-use asset in exchange for a new operating lease liability in the amount of $1,721,380 and derecognized $46,523 deferred rent for an adjusted operating lease right-of-use asset in the net amount of $1,674,857.
Based on the requirements to move and leave the building in compliance with the company’s lease term, VirTra chose to use the holdover option in the lease agreement for the period of one additional month. The cost of this was split with the subtenant, this extended the lease through May 31, 2024, at which time VirTra entirely vacated the property.
The balance sheet classification of lease assets and liabilities as of September 30, 2024 are as follows:
| Balance Sheet Classification | September 30, 2024 | December 31, 2023 |

During August 2022,168,090 RSUs were forfeited upon the departure of the Chief Operating Officer. During July 2024,40,229 RSUs were forfeited upon the departure of the Executive Chairman (formerly one of the co-Chief Executive Officers).
On December 1, 2022, the Company granted a total of 15,000 RSUs to its Chief Financial Officer, which can be awarded based on achievement of performance goals over the next three years. On August 29, 2024 the board of Directors increased the numbers of share eligible for the CFO to receive from 5,000 this year to 10,000 on the CFO’s vesting on the CFO’s anniversary date of December 1, 2024 On January 1, 2023, the Company issued 42,735 RSUs to a new member of the Board of Directors which can be awarded only upon a sale of the Company.
It is the Company’s policy to estimate the fair value of the RSU’s on the date of the grant and evaluate the probability of achieving the net profit (net income under GAAP) tranches quarterly. If the target is deemed probable, the expense is amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining period. The Company determined based on the vesting terms described above that the net profit (net income under GAAP) for the twelve months ending June 30, 2024, was $4,564,459 and therefore awarded 22,988 (prior to deduction of 9,142 shares to pay the tax withholding liability) and 29,630 (prior to the deduction of 11,394 shares to pay the tax withholding liability) shares of common stock to its Executive Chairman and CEO, respectively. Based on the vesting terms described above and a net profit (net income under GAAP) for the twelve months ending June 30, 2024, of $6,846,750, the Company awarded 118,519 (prior to deduction of 46,367 shares to pay the tax withholding liability) shares of Common Stock to its CEO.

Note 10. Stockholders’ Equity
Stock Repurchase
On October 25, 2016, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $1 million of its common stock under Rule 10b-18 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Purchases made pursuant to this authorization will be made in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions, or pursuant to any trading plan that may be adopted in accordance with Rule 10b-18. The timing, manner, price and amount of any repurchases will be determined by the Company in its discretion and will be subject to economic and market conditions, stock price, applicable legal requirements and other factors. On January 9, 2019, VirTra’s Board of Directors authorized an additional $1 million be allocated for the repurchase of VirTra’s stock under the existing 10b-18 plan. The stock repurchase program was suspended as a result of interim rulings for public-company recipients of a PPP loan under the CARES Act. Although the Company’s PPP loan was forgiven on July 20, 2021, the suspension of the stock repurchase program continues to remain in effect.
Non-qualified Stock Options
The Company has periodically issued non-qualified stock options to key employees, officers and directors under a stock option compensation plan approved by the Board of Directors in 2009. Terms of option grants are at the discretion of the Board of Directors and are generally seven years. Upon the exercise of these options, the Company expects to issue new authorized shares of its common stock. The following table summarizes all non-qualified stock options as of:
| September 30,2024 · December 31, 2023 | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Number of Stock Options · Weighted Exercise Price · Number of Stock Options · Weighted Exercise Price | |||||
| Options outstanding, beginning of year | 15,000 | $4.03 | 45,000 | $4.26 | |
| Granted | - | - | - | - | |
| Redeemed | (10,000) | 3.76 | (15,000) | 5.09 | |
| Exercised | (5,000) | 3.76 | (15,000) | 3.66 | |
| Expired / terminated | - | - | - | - | |
| Options outstanding, end of period | - | $ | - | 15,000 | $4.03 |
| Options exercisable, end of period | - | $ | - | 15,000 | $4.03 |
The Company did not have any non-vested stock options outstanding as of September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023. The weighted average contractual term for options outstanding and exercisable on September 30, 2024, and 2023 was 0 years. The aggregate intrinsic value of the options outstanding and exercisable on September 30, 2024, and 2023 was $-0- and $34,425 respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, the Company received payments related to the exercise of options in the amount of $-0- and $14,700, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, the Company received $20,150 and $41,902, respectively. The aggregate intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the underlying options and the fair value of the Company’s common stock for those stock options that have an exercise price lower than the fair value of the Company’s common stock. Options with an exercise price above the fair value of the Company’s common stock are considered to have no intrinsic value.
