Securities Purchase Agreement dated January 6, 2025
Current report
On January 6, 2025, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “January 2025 SPA”) with an institutional investor (the “Selling Stockholder”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Selling Stockholder (i) in a registered direct offering, (a) 175,000 shares of Class A Common Stock (the “January 2025 Shares”); and (b) Pre-Funded Warrants (the "January 2025 Pre-Funded Warrants") to purchase 239,202 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.001 per share and (ii) in a concurrent private placement, common stock purchase warrants consisting of Series A common warrants exercisable for up to 414,202 shares of Class A Common Stock at an exercise price of $8.45 per share of Class A Common Stock (the “January 2025 Series A Warrants”), and Series B common warrants exercisable for up to 207,101 shares of Class A Common Stock at an exercise price of $8.45 per share (the “January 2025 Series B Warrants”, and collectively with the January 2025 Series A Warrants, the “January 2025 Private Placement Warrants”). The offering price per January 2025 Share and respective January 2025 Private Placement Warrants was $8.45, and the offering price per Pre-Funded Warrant was $8.449.
Current report
The securities to be issued in the registered direct offering were offered pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File 333-271091) (the “Shelf Registration Statement”), initially filed by the Company with the SEC under the Securities Act on April 3, 2023 and declared effective on April 12, 2023. The January 2025 Pre-Funded Warrants are immediately exercisable upon issuance and will remain exercisable until all of the January 2025 Pre-Funded Warrants are exercised in full.
Current report
The terms of the Series A and January 2025 Series B Warrants that comprise the January 2025 Private Placement Warrants are identical, except that the January 2025 Series A Warrants provide for additional protections for the Selling Stockholder in the event of a “Fundamental Transaction” while the January 2025 Series A Warrants are outstanding (which includes, but is not limited to, merger transactions or a sale of substantially all of the Company’s assets). In such an event, then if holders of the Company’s Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Selling Stockholder will be given the same choice as to the consideration it receives upon any exercise of either the Series A or January 2025 Series B Warrants following such Fundamental Transaction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, for the January 2025 Series A Warrants, in the event of a Fundamental Transaction, the Selling Stockholder may require the Company or its successor to repurchase the January 2025 Series A Warrants for its Black-Scholes Value (as defined in the Series A Warrant) in cash. This right can be exercised concurrently with, or within 30 days following, the consummation or public announcement of the transaction. If the Fundamental Transaction occurs outside the Company’s control, such as in a hostile takeover or an unapproved transaction, the holder is entitled to receive consideration equivalent in type and proportion to that offered to common stockholders, also calculated based on the Black-Scholes model. Additionally, if no consideration is offered to the Company’s stockholders in the transaction, the holder is deemed to receive common stock of the successor entity, preserving the January 2025 Series A Warrants’ value.
Current report
The January 2025 Private Placement Warrants are immediately exercisable upon issuance, and will expire five years thereafter, and in certain circumstances may be exercised on a cashless basis. If we fail for any reason to deliver shares of Class A Common Stock upon the valid exercise of the January 2025 Private Placement Warrants, subject to our receipt of a valid exercise notice and the aggregate exercise price, by the time period set forth in the January 2025 Private Placement Warrants, we are required to pay the applicable holder, in cash, as liquidated damages as set forth in the January 2025 Private Placement Warrants. The January 2025 Pre-Funded Warrants and January 2025 Private Placement Warrants also include customary buy-in rights in the event we fail to deliver shares of common stock upon exercise thereof within the time periods set forth in the January 2025 Pre-Funded Warrants and January 2025 Private Placement Warrants.
Current report
On January 8, 2025, the Company closed the registered direct offering and the private placement offering (collectively, the “January 2025 Offering”), raising gross proceeds of approximately $3.50 million before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses payable by the Company. In the event that all January 2025 Private Placement Warrants are exercised for cash, the Company will receive additional gross proceeds of approximately $5,250,250. The Company’s primary use of the net proceeds will be for working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes.
Current report
Pursuant to the terms of the January 2025 SPA, the Company is required within 30 days of January 6, 2025 to file a registration statement on Form S-1 or other appropriate form if the Company is not then S-1 eligible registering the resale of the shares of Class A Common Stock issued and issuable upon the exercise of the January 2025 Private Placement Warrants. The Company is required to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration to become effective within 91 days of the closing of the January 2025 Offering, and to keep the registration statement effective at all times until no investor owns any January 2025 Private Placement Warrants or shares issuable upon exercise thereof.
Current report
Pursuant to the terms of the January 2025 SPA, from January 6, 2025 until 30 days after closing, subject to certain exceptions, we may not issue, enter into any agreement to issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any shares of common stock or common stock equivalents, or file any registration statement or any amendment or supplement thereto, other than a prospectus supplement for the Shelf Registration Statement. In addition, from January 6, 2025 until 45 days after closing, we are prohibited from effecting or entering into an agreement to effect any issuance of common stock or common stock equivalents involving a variable rate transaction (as defined in the January 2025 SPA).
Current report
The foregoing description of the January 2025 SPA, January 2025 Pre-Funded Warrants, January 2025 Series A Warrants, and January 2025 Series B Warrants is intended to be a summary, and is qualified by reference to the full text of each of these documents, which were filed as exhibits 10.1, 4.1, 4.2, and 4.3, respectively to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on January 10, 2025.

Africa
Current report
The African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) is a landmark agreement that binds 54 African nations and an estimated 1.47 billion people into the world’s largest free trade area. AfCFTA has significant economic potential for Africa, as it aims to create a single market for goods and services across 55 countries, representing over 1.3 billion people with a combined GDP of approximately $3.4 trillion. By reducing trade barriers, the agreement could contribute an additional $450 billion to Africa’s GDP by 2035, lifting 30 million people out of extreme poverty and increasing the incomes of 68 million people, according to the World Bank. Over the next decade, Africa’s share of the world population is projected to reach 21%, up from 13% in 2000. More than 50% of young people entering the workforce will be in sub-Saharan Africa. By 2050, the region’s working-age population will still be rising while it is falling virtually everywhere else, and Africa will be home to an estimated 2.5 billion people, or 25% of all humanity.
Current report
Globally, 850 million people did not have identity documents in 2023, with 542 million in Africa. Of that 542 million, 95 million are children who have never had their birth recorded, and 120 million are children without a birth certificate. The single initiative of implementing universal tokenized identity in African countries has the potential to significantly boost the implementing countries' economies. According to the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA), countries adopting digital ID programs could unlock economic value equivalent to 3% and 13% of their GDP by 2030.
Current report
A transition to digital records for births, marriages, deaths, and electronic identity documents represents a transformative opportunity for developing nations and builds a foundation for economic growth. Establishing a robust digital infrastructure for vital records enhances administrative efficiency, fosters inclusive development, strengthens governance, and unlocks economic potential. Yet, developing African countries are often unable or unwilling to fund the initial capital expenditure required to make the transition.
Current report

With the assistance of the Mastercard Lighthouse MASSIV program, we intend to build upon this work to maximize the opportunities to meet the critical need for secure identity programs for both governments and NGOs.

Adjusted EBITDA income (loss) (non-GAAP) for the three months ended September 30, 2024, decreased to a $2.14 million loss from a $316 thousand gain for the three months ended September 30, 2023. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company signed a license agreement with Boumarang valued at $5.00 million and accounted for under other income. This figure was deducted from the Net income to arrive at the Adjusted EBITDA loss (non-GAAP), which is the primary driver for the significant change in Adjusted EBITDA income (loss) (non-GAAP) for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the prior period. The $5.00 million was partially offset by other expense including a $1.17 million loss related to the difference in the cash paid for the warrants and the FMV of the warrants issued on September 3, 2024 and a loss of $360 thousand related to the difference in the cash paid for the warrants and the FMV of the warrants issued on September 10, 2024. Additionally, during the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recognized non-refundable license revenue advances from Interactive Global Solutions (“IGS”) for the provision of software of $2.51 million. This was a one-time occurrence which significantly improved our net revenues during the three months ended September 30, 2023 - and because there was no similar transaction during the three months ended September 30, 2024, was a contributor to the significant change in Adjusted EBITDA income (loss) (non-GAAP) for the three months ended September 30, 2024. See “Results of Operations” below for further discussion on the drivers behind the increase in Adjusted EBITDA income (loss) (non-GAAP) during the three months ended September 30, 2024.
Previous report
Adjusted EBITDA income (loss) (non-GAAP) for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, increased by 64.25%, to a $6.65 million loss from a $4.05 million loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The overall increase in Adjusted EBITDA income (loss) (non-GAAP) was driven primarily by the license agreement with Boumarang valued at $5.00 million and accounted for under other income. This figure got deducted from the Net loss before taxes to arrive at the adjusted EBITDA loss. The $5.00 million was partially offset by other expense including a $1.17 million loss related to the difference in the cash paid the warrants and the FMV of the warrants issued on September 3, 2024 and a loss of $360 thousand related to the difference in the cash paid for the warrants and the FMV of the warrants issued on September 10, 2024. Additionally, the decrease of $2.40 million or 60.22% in Net revenue as a result of recognizing the IGS non-refundable license revenue advances for the provision of software of $2.51 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 also is a factor in increase in Adjusted EBITDA loss during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the prior period, as there was no similar one-time transaction that occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 that significantly increased net revenues. See “Results of Operations” below for further discussion on the drivers behind the increase in Adjusted EBITDA loss (non-GAAP) during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.
Previous report
During the three months ended September 30, 2024, Net revenue decreased to $511 thousand, or an 83.33% decrease from the Net revenue of $3.07 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the $511 thousand in Net revenue consisted of $339 thousand from an S&P 500 bank, $90 thousand from Mastercard, and various other customers for the remaining $82 thousand. The majority of the decrease in net revenue compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023 relates to the termination of the September 15, 2022 Master Services Agreement with IGS ("IGS Contract") which caused the Company to recognize non-refundable license revenue advances from IGS under the IGS Contract for the provision of software of $2.51 million. This was a one-time occurrence which significantly improved our net revenues during the three months ended September 30, 2023 and therefore is the primary reason for the stark decrease in net revenues of the Company during the three months ended September 30, 2024.

During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company generated $314 thousand total revenue from customers using the Orchestration Layer.

The Company’s Operating loss increased by $2.65 million or 12131.29% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in Operating loss was mainly related to a decrease in net revenue. This decrease related to the termination of the September 15, 2022 Master Services Agreement with IGS ("IGS Contract") which resulted in $2.51 million in Net revenue during the three months ended September 30, 2023 and the release from future contractual obligations for maintenance and upgrades as a result of the termination of the IGS Contract.
Previous report
Other income increased by $5.00 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase was primarily due to the Company agreeing to grant a non-exclusive license to Boumarang to exploit certain of the Company’s patents for the purpose of producing, selling, marketing, and distributing drones. As consideration for the grant of the non-exclusive license, Boumarang agreed to pay the Company a non-refundable license fee of $5.00 million in the form of a prepaid warrant issued by Boumarang to the Company for 5,000,000 shares of common stock of Boumarang at $1.00 per share.

An analysis of the slow adoption revealed that many of the institutions would need some level of customization and in fourth quarter of 2024 and first quarter of 2025, the Company has invested in modification of the modules to meet the broader range of needs and preferences identified by the enrolled institutions. Orchestration Layer 2.0 will be “relaunched” in the second quarter of 2025.
