Current report

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The amendment requires new financial statement disclosures to provide disaggregated information for certain types of expenses, including employee compensation, depreciation, and amortization in commonly presented expense captions such as cost of revenue, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is in the process of evaluating the effect that the adoption of these standards will have on its financial statements.

Current report

Our long-lived assets include property and equipment, goodwill, and intangible assets. As of March 31, 2025, the balances of property and equipment, goodwill and intangible assets, all net of accumulated depreciation and amortization, were $497, $8,102 and $2,434, respectively. As of December 31, 2024, the balances of property and equipment, goodwill and intangible assets, all net of accumulated depreciation and amortization, were $536, $8,102 and 2,374, respectively. Reference Note 2, “Significant Accounting Policies”; Note 4, “Property and Equipment”; and Note 5, “Goodwill and Intangible Assets” in the Notes to Financial Statements for details on the Company’s valuations of our long-lived assets.

Current report

We capitalize certain costs related to the development of our platform and other software applications for internal use. In accordance with authoritative guidance, we begin to capitalize our costs to develop software when preliminary development efforts are successfully completed, management has authorized and committed project funding, and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used as intended. We stop capitalizing these costs when the software is substantially complete and ready for its intended use, including the completion of all significant testing. These costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the related asset. We also capitalize costs related to specific upgrades and enhancements when it is probable the expenditure will result in additional functionality and expense costs incurred for maintenance and minor upgrades and enhancements. Costs incurred prior to meeting these criteria together with costs incurred for training and maintenance are expensed as incurred and recorded within research and development expenses in the statements of operations. We exercise judgment in determining the point at which various projects may be capitalized, in assessing the ongoing value of the capitalized costs and in determining the estimated useful lives over which the costs are amortized.

Current report

We use Adjusted Gross Profit as a non-GAAP financial performance measurement. Adjusted Gross Profit is calculated by adjusting gross profit for the reduction of amortization expense. Adjusted Gross Profit is provided to investors to supplement the results of operations reported in accordance with GAAP. We believe Adjusted Gross Profit is important because it focuses on the current operating performance, as amortization expense does not accurately reflect the current costs required to maintain the operational usage of our service. Rather, amortization expense reflects the allocation of historical software development costs over their estimated useful lives.

Current report

As an indicator of our operating performance, Adjusted Gross Profit should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than, gross profit as determined in accordance with GAAP. Our Adjusted Gross Profit may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure of another company because other entities may not calculate Adjusted Gross Profit in the same manner.

Current report

The reconciliation of GAAP gross profit to Non-GAAP Adjusted Gross Profit is as follows:

Previous report

We believe that there are several accounting policies that are critical to understanding our historical and future performance, as these policies affect the reported amounts of revenue and the more significant areas involving management’s judgments and estimates. These significant accounting policies relate to revenue recognition, stock-based compensation, deferred taxes, goodwill and intangible asset valuation and impairment, and commitments and contingencies. These policies and our procedures related to these policies are summarized below and described in further detail in the Notes to condensed Financial Statements.

Previous report

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which enhances reporting requirements under Topic 280. The enhanced disclosure requirements include: title and position of the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), significant segment expenses provided to the CODM, extending certain annual disclosures to interim periods, clarifying single reportable segment entities must apply ASC 280 in its entirety, and permitting more than one measure of segment profit or loss to be reported under certain circumstances. This change is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024. This change will apply retrospectively to all periods presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its financial statements.

Previous report

The excess of the purchase consideration over the fair value of the assets of acquired businesses is considered goodwill. Under authoritative guidance, goodwill is not amortized, but rather it is periodically reviewed for impairment. We had goodwill of $8,102 as of September 30, 2024.

Previous report

For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company performed its annual impairment test of goodwill in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year. Under authoritative guidance, the Company can use industry and Company specific qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that impairment exists before performing step one of the quantitative goodwill impairment test. An entity is not required to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit unless the entity determines, based on a qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount. Events or changes in circumstances which could trigger an impairment review include macroeconomic conditions, industry and market conditions, cost factors, overall financial performance, other entity specific events and sustained decrease in share price.

Previous report

We determined that no events occurred or circumstances changed during the three and nine-months ended September 30, 2024 that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the Company below its carrying amounts. We will, however, continue to monitor our stock price and operations for any potential indicators of impairment. We will conduct the 2024 annual test for goodwill impairment in the fourth quarter, or at such time where an indicator of impairment appears to exist.

Previous report

Our intangible assets consist of patents, a software license, and capitalized software development costs. We determined that no events occurred, or circumstances changed during the three months ended September 30, 2024 that would more likely than not reduce our intangible assets below our carrying amounts. We will, however, continue to monitor any potential indicators of impairment. See Note 5, “Intangible Assets,” in the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements for details on the Company’s intangible assets.

Previous report

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and net operating loss carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. We have recorded a full valuation allowance for our net deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2024, due to the uncertainty of our ability to realize those assets. Reference Note 8, “Income Taxes,” in the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements for details on the Company’s income taxes.

Previous report

Revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2024 decreased $51, or 1%, to approximately $4,709 compared to $4,760 for the same period of 2023. The decrease in revenues is primarily the result of lower Equipment revenues for the current period. Equipment revenue, which consists of the sale of equipment is recognized at a point in time, decreased $93 or 88% to $13 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $106 for the same period of 2023. SaaS revenue increased $26 or 1% to $4,661 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $4,635 for the same period of 2023.

Previous report

Operating expenses, which consist of selling, general and administrative and research and development expenses, decreased $1,352, or 9%, to $14,391 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $15,743 for the same period of 2023. This decrease was primarily driven by lower stock-based compensation.
Reworded paragraphs (12)

Previous wording

The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements include impairment consideration and valuation of goodwill and intangible assets, deferred tax valuation allowances, capitalization of software development costs, revenue recognition (including breakage revenue), allowance for credit losses, and the fair value of stock options under the Company’s stock-based compensation plan. Due to the inherent uncertainties involved in making estimates, actual results reported in future periods may be different from those estimates.

Previous wording

Most license fees and services revenue are generated from a combination of fixed-price and per-scan contracts. Under the per-scan revenue model, customers are charged a fee each time the customer scans an identity document, such as a driver’s license, with the Company’s software. Under the fixed-price revenue model customers are charged a fixed monthly fee either per device or physical business location to access the Company’s software. Under ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for those goods or services. The Company measures revenue based on the consideration specified in a customer arrangement, and revenue is recognized when the performance obligations in an arrangement are satisfied. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct service to the customer. The transaction price of a contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the customer receives the benefit of the performance obligation. Customers typically receive the benefit of the Company’s services as they are performed. The Company's performance obligations are satisfied over time, and as a result, we may follow the right to invoice practical expedient meaning we recognize revenue monthly as invoiced based on our contract terms. Reference Note 2, “Significant Accounting Policies,” in the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements for additional details on the Company’s recognized and deferred revenue.

Previous wording

Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 increased $330, or 2%, to approximately $14,060 compared to $13,730 for the same period of 2023.

Previous wording

We use Adjusted EBITDA as a non-GAAP financial performance measurement. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adjusting net loss for certain reductions such as interest and other income (expense), provisions for income taxes, depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation expense. Adjusted EBITDA is provided to investors to supplement the results of operations reported in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides an additional tool for investors to use in comparing our financial results with other companies that also use Adjusted EBITDA in their communications to investors. By excluding non-cash charges such as impairments of long-lived assets and goodwill, amortization, depreciation and stock-based compensation, as well as non-operating charges for interest and provisions for income taxes, investors can evaluate our operations and can compare the results on a more consistent

In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is one of the primary measures management uses to monitor and evaluate financial and operating results.

Previous wording

We consider Adjusted EBITDA to be an important indicator of our operational strength and performance of our business and a useful measure of our historical operating trends. However, there are significant limitations to the use of Adjusted EBITDA since it excludes non-restructuring severance expenses, provisions for income taxes, interest and other (expense) income, impairments of long-lived assets and goodwill, stock-based compensation expense, all of which impact our profitability, as well as depreciation and amortization related to the use of long-term assets which benefit multiple periods. We believe that these limitations are compensated by providing Adjusted EBITDA only with GAAP net loss and clearly identifying the difference between the two measures. Consequently, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net loss presented in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA as defined by us may not be comparable with similarly named measures provided by other companies.
