Note 1 – Organization and Basis of Presentation

Organization and Principal Business Activities

Nxt-ID, Inc. (“Nxt-ID” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on February 8, 2012. The Company is a security technology company and operates its business in one segment – hardware and software security systems and applications. The Company is engaged in the development of proprietary products and solutions that serve multiple end markets, including the security, healthcare, financial technology and the Internet of Things (“IoT”) markets. The Company evaluates the performance of its business on, among other things, profit and loss from operations. With extensive experience in access control, biometric and behavior-metric identity verification, security and privacy, encryption and data protection, payments, miniaturization, and sensor technologies, the Company develops and markets solutions for payment, IoT and healthcare applications.

The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, LogicMark LLC (“LogicMark”), manufactures and distributes non-monitored and monitored personal emergency response systems sold through the United States Department of Veterans Affairs, healthcare durable medical equipment dealers and distributors and monitored security dealers and distributors.

The Company’s former wholly-owned subsidiary, Fit Pay, Inc., had a proprietary technology platform that delivers payment, credential management, authentication and other secure services to the IoT ecosystem. The platform uses tokenization, a payment security technology that replaces cardholders’ account information with a unique digital identifier, to transact highly secure contactless payment and authentication services. On September 21, 2018, the Company announced that its board of directors approved a plan to separate the Company’s financial technology business from our healthcare business into an independent publicly traded company. The Company originally planned to distribute shares of PartX, Inc., a newly created company and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“PartX”), to our stockholders through the execution of a spin-off. As a result, the Company reclassified its financial technology business to discontinued operations for all periods reported. The Company’s financial technology business was comprised of its Fit Pay subsidiary and the intellectual property developed by the Company, including the Flye Smartcard and the Wocket. On April 29, 2019, a Registration Statement on Form 10 was filed by PartX with the SEC in connection with the planned spin-off of our payments, authentication and credential management business. On August 19, 2019, the Company’s subsidiary, PartX notified the SEC that it was withdrawing the Registration Statement on Form 10. With the approval of the Company’s board of directors, and upon similar terms and conditions to those set forth in that loan agreement, the Company entered into a non-binding letter of intent for the sale of its Fit Pay subsidiary, excluding certain assets on August 6, 2019. In connection with the letter of intent, the Company was advanced $500,000 of non-interest bearing working capital for Fit Pay. On September 9, 2019, the Company completed the sale of its Fit Pay subsidiary to Garmin International, Inc. for $3.32 million in cash. 

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2020, and for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the SEC and on the same basis as the Company prepares its annual audited consolidated financial statements. The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2020 and the condensed consolidated statements of operations, changes in equity and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019 are unaudited, but include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020, or for any future interim period. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2019 has been derived from audited consolidated financial statements. However, it does not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the SEC on March 30, 2020.

Note 2 – Liquidity

The Company generated operating income of $1,039,406 and net income of $438,064 during the three months ended March 31, 2020. As of March 31, 2020, the Company had cash and stockholders’ equity of $1,438,885 and $7,284,280, respectively. At March 31, 2020, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $2,003,038.

Given the Company’s cash position at March 31, 2020 and its projected cash flow from operations, the Company believes that it will have sufficient capital to sustain operations for a period of one year following the date of this filing. The Company may also raise funds through equity or debt offerings to increase its working capital and to accelerate the execution of its long-term strategic plan to develop and commercialize its core products and to fulfill its product development commitments.

As described in Note 7, the coronavirus could significantly impact the Company’s business, which would require the Company to raise funds to assist with its working capital needs.

Note 3 – Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of estimates in the financial statements

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company’s management evaluates these significant estimates and assumptions including those related to the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities, stock based compensation, derivative instruments, income taxes, accounts receivable and inventories, right-of-use assets and other matters that affect the condensed consolidated financial statements and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Principles of consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Nxt-ID and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenues consist of product sales to either end customers or to distributors and its sales are recognized at a point-in-time under the core principle of recognizing revenue when control of the product transfers to the customer. The Company recognizes revenue when it ships or delivers the product from its fulfillment center to its customer, when the customer accepts and has legal title of the product, and the Company has a present right to payment for the product. For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had no sales recognized over time. The Company invoices its customers at the same time that the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied. The Company generally receives customer orders with a specified delivery date and orders typically fluctuate from month-to-month based on customer demand and general business conditions.

The Company offers standard product warranty coverage which provides assurance that the Company’s products will conform to the contractually agreed-upon specifications for a limited period from the date of shipment. The Company’s warranty liabilities and related expense have not been material and were not material in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable is stated at net realizable value. The Company regularly reviews accounts receivable balances and adjusts the receivable reserves as necessary whenever events or circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had an allowance for doubtful accounts of $126,733.

Inventory

The Company performs regular reviews of inventory quantities on hand and evaluates the realizable value of its inventories. The Company adjusts the carrying value of the inventory as necessary with estimated valuation reserves for excess, obsolete, and slow-moving inventory by comparing the individual inventory parts to forecasted product demand or production requirements. As of March 31, 2020, inventory was comprised of $203,481 in raw materials and $746,302 in finished goods on hand. Inventory at December 31, 2019 was comprised of $167,357 in raw materials and $1,135,922 in finished goods on hand. The Company is required to prepay for certain inventory with certain vendors until credit terms can be established. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had prepaid inventory of $197,731 and $201,496, respectively. These prepayments were made primarily for finished goods inventory, and prepaid inventory is included in prepaid expenses and other current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.  

Other Intangible Assets

At March 31, 2020, the other intangible assets relating to the acquisition of LogicMark are comprised of patents of $2,726,529; trademarks of $1,025,866; and customer relationships of $2,060,037. At December 31, 2019, the other intangible assets relating to the acquisition of LogicMark are comprised of patents of $2,818,434; trademarks of $1,041,370; and customer relationships of $2,140,473. The Company will continue amortizing these intangible assets using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives which for the patents, trademarks and customer relationships are 11 years; 20 years; and 10 years, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had amortization expense of $187,845 and $187,845, respectively, related to the LogicMark intangible assets.

As of March 31, 2020, total amortization expense estimated for the remainder of fiscal year 2020 is approximately $574,000, and for each of the next five fiscal years, 2021 through 2025, the total amortization expense is estimated to be as follows: 2021 - $762,000; 2022 - $762,000; 2023 - $762,000; 2024 - $762,000; and 2025 - $762,000.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for share-based awards exchanged for employee services at the estimated grant date fair value of the award. The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to non-employees at their fair value on the measurement date. The measurement of stock-based compensation is subject to periodic adjustment as the underlying equity instrument vests or becomes non-forfeitable. Non-employee stock-based compensation charges are amortized over the vesting period or as earned. Stock-based compensation is recorded in the same component of operating expenses as if it were paid in cash. The Company generally issues new shares of common stock to satisfy conversion and warrant exercises.

Net Loss per Share

Basic loss per share was computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted loss per share includes the effect of diluted common stock equivalents. Potentially dilutive securities from the exercise of stock options to purchase 114,288 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase 6,973,221 shares of common stock as of March 31, 2020 were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share because the exercise price of the common stock equivalents was greater than the average market price of the common shares for the three month period ended March 31, 2020. As of March 31, 2019, potentially dilutive securities from the exercise of warrants to purchase 4,782,448 shares of common stock were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share because the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) ASU 2018-13, which eliminates, adds and modifies certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements as part of the FASB’s disclosure framework project. Adoption of this guidance is required for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. This ASU was adopted and did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

Other recent accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

Note 5 – Debt refinancing

On May 24, 2018, LogicMark, a wholly owned subsidiary of Nxt-ID, entered into a Senior Secured Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with the lenders thereto and Sagard Holdings Manager LP, as administrative agent and collateral agent for the lenders party to the Credit Agreement (collectively, the “Lender”), whereby the Lender extended a term loan (the “Term Loan”) to LogicMark in the principal amount of $16,000,000. The original maturity date of the Term Loan was May 24, 2023. The Term Loan Facility with Sagard Holdings Manager LP was repaid on May 3, 2019 with Term Loan proceeds received from CrowdOut Capital LLC (see below). The outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan bore interest at a rate of LIBOR, adjusted monthly, plus 9.5% per annum. The Company incurred $1,253,970 in deferred debt issue costs related to the Term Loan. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company amortized $62,698 of the deferred debt issue costs which is included in interest expense in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

On May 24, 2018 the Company recorded a debt discount of $705,541. The debt discount was attributable to the aggregate fair value of the warrants that were issued to the Lender in connection with the Term Loan Facility with Sagard Holdings Manager LP. The debt discount was amortized using the effective interest method over the five-year term of the Term Loan. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company recorded $35,277 of debt discount amortization related to the Sagard Warrants. The debt discount amortization is included as part of interest expense in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

On May 3, 2019, LogicMark completed the closing of a $16,500,000 senior secured term loan with the lenders thereto and CrowdOut Capital LLC, as administrative agent. The Company used the proceeds from the term loan to repay LogicMark’s existing term loan facility with Sagard Holdings Manager LP and to pay other costs related to the refinancing. The maturity date of the term loan with CrowdOut Capital LLC is May 3, 2022 and requires the Company to make minimum principal payments over the three-year term amortized over 96 months. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company made scheduled principal repayments totaling $515,625. In addition, the Company prepaid an additional $150,000 of the term loan with CrowdOut Capital LLC in March 2020 with cash flow generated from operations. The outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan bears interest at a rate of LIBOR, adjusted monthly, plus 11.0% per annum (approximately 13.0% as of March 31, 2020). The Company incurred $412,500 in original issue discount for closing related fees charged by the Lender. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company amortized $28,672 of the original issue discount which is included in interest expense in the condensed consolidated statement of operations. At March 31, 2020 the unamortized balance of the original issue discount was $215,398. The Company also incurred $1,831,989 in deferred debt issue costs related to the term loan. The deferred debt issue costs include an exit fee of $1,072,500 which is equivalent to 6.5% of the term loan amount borrowed from CrowdOut Capital. The exit fee is due to CrowdOut Capital upon the earlier of final repayment of the term loan facility or the maturity date. The liability for the exit fee is included as part of other long-term liabilities in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company amortized $148,317, respectively of the deferred debt issue costs which is included in interest expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. At March 31, 2020 the unamortized balance of deferred debt issue costs was $1,114,248.

January 2019 At-the-Market Offering

On January 8, 2019, the Company entered into a sales agreement with A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners (“A.G.P.”) for an at-the-market offering, pursuant to which the Company could sell, at its option, shares of its common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, having an aggregate offering price of up to $15 million to or through A.G.P., as sales agent. The Company was obligated to pay A.G.P. commissions for its services in acting as the Company’s sales agent in the sale of its common stock pursuant to the sales agreement. A.G.P. was entitled to compensation at a fixed commission rate of 3.0% of the gross proceeds from the sale of the Company’s common stock on the Company’s behalf pursuant to the sales agreement. The Company also agreed to reimburse A.G.P. for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, including the fees and disbursements of counsel to A.G.P., incurred in connection with the offering, in an amount not to exceed $35,000. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company received $1,282,810 in net proceeds from the sale of 1,084,227 shares of its common stock under the sales agreement with A.G.P. The sales agreement with A.G.P. was terminated on October 10, 2019.

2013 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan 

On January 4, 2013, a majority of the Company’s stockholders approved by written consent the Company’s 2013 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan (“LTIP”). The maximum aggregate number of shares of common stock that may be issued under the LTIP, including stock awards, stock issued to directors for serving on the Company’s board of directors, and stock appreciation rights, is limited to 10% of the shares of common stock outstanding on the first business or trading day of any fiscal year, which is 592,223 shares of common stock at January 1, 2020.

On March 31, 2020, the Company issued an aggregate of 114,288 stock options to purchase shares of common stock under the LTIP to four (4) non-employee directors for serving on the Company’s board. The exercise price of these stock options is $0.35 and stock options were fully vested at the issuance date. The aggregate fair value of the stock options issued to the directors was $40,000.

2017 Stock Incentive Plan

On August 24, 2017, a majority of the Company’s stockholders approved at the 2017 Annual Stockholders’ Meeting the 2017 Stock Incentive Plan (“2017 SIP”). The aggregate maximum number of shares of common stock (including shares underlying options) that may be issued under the 2017 SIP pursuant to awards of restricted shares or options will be limited to 10% of the outstanding shares of common stock, which calculation shall be made on the first (1^st) business day of each new fiscal year; provided that for fiscal year 2017, 1,500,000 shares of common stock may be delivered to participants under the 2017 SIP. Thereafter, the 10% provision shall govern the 2017 SIP. The number of shares of common stock that are the subject of awards under the 2017 SIP which are forfeited or terminated, are settled in cash in lieu of shares of common stock or are settled in a manner such that all or some of such shares covered by an award are not issued to a participant or are exchanged for awards that do not involve shares of common stock will again immediately become available to be issued pursuant to awards granted under the 2017 SIP. If shares of common stock are withheld from payment of an award to satisfy tax obligations with respect to the award, those shares of common stock will be treated as shares that have been issued under the 2017 SIP and will not again be available for issuance under the 2017 SIP.

In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company issued 279,287 shares of common stock with an aggregate fair value of $116,628 to certain employees related to the Company’s 2017 and 2018 management incentive plans.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company accrued $40,000 of management and employee bonus expense.

Warrants

As of March 31, 2020, the Company had outstanding warrants to purchase an aggregate of 6,973,221 shares of common stock with a weighted average exercise price and remaining life of $2.83 and 3.28 years, respectively. At March 31, 2020, the warrants had no aggregate intrinsic value.

Note 7 – Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Matters

On February 24, 2020, Michael J. Orlando, a former executive officer and director of the Company, as Shareholder Representative, and the other stockholders of Fit Pay (collectively, the “Fit Pay Shareholders”), filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Company, CrowdOut Capital, LLC, and Garmin International, Inc. (the “Complaint”) alleging the Company breached certain contractual obligations under a merger agreement, dated May 23, 2017, between Fit Pay and the Company (the “Merger Agreement”), regarding certain future, contingent earnout payments allegedly that could be owed to the Fit Pay Shareholders from future revenues (the “Earnout Payments”). The Company previously disclosed the Merger Agreement in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 30, 2017. The Complaint seeks monetary damages from the defendants. The Company believes that these claims are without merit and plans to vigorously defend the action.

From time to time, the Company may be involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of our business. Other than as described above, there is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of the Company or any of our subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting our company, or any of our subsidiaries in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect upon our business, operating results, or financial condition.

Commitments

The Company leases office space and a fulfillment center in the U.S., which are classified as operating leases expiring at various dates. The Company determines if an arrangement qualifies as a lease at the lease inception. The Company adopted Topic 842 effective January 1, 2019. Operating lease liabilities are recorded based on the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term, assessed as of the commencement date. The Company’s real estate leases, which are for office space and a fulfillment center, generally have a lease term between 3 and 5 years. The Company also leases a copier with a lease term of 5 years. The Company’s leases are comprised of fixed lease payments and also include executory costs such as common area maintenance, as well as property insurance and property taxes. As a practical expedient under Topic 842, the Company has elected to account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for its real estate leases. Lease payments, which may include lease components, non-lease components and non-components, are included in the measurement of the Company’s lease liabilities to the extent that such payments are either fixed amounts or variable amounts based on a rate or index (fixed in substance) as stipulated in the lease contract. Any actual costs in excess of such amounts are expensed as incurred as variable lease cost.

The Company’s lease agreements generally do not specify an implicit borrowing rate, and as such, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate by lease term, in order to calculate the present value of the future lease payments. The discount rate represents a risk-adjusted rate on a secured basis, and is the rate at which the Company would borrow funds to satisfy the scheduled lease liability payment streams commensurate with the lease term. On January 1, 2019, the discount rate used on existing leases at adoption was determined based on the remaining lease term using available data as of that date. The Company did not have new or renewed leases commencing in 2020.

Certain of the Company’s lease agreements, primarily related to real estate, include options for the Company to either renew (extend) or early terminate the lease. Leases with renewal options allow the Company to extend the lease term typically between 1 and 3 years. Renewal options are reviewed at lease commencement to determine if such options are reasonably certain of being exercised, which could impact the lease term. When determining if a renewal option is reasonably certain of being exercised, the Company considers several factors, including but not limited to, significance of leasehold improvements incurred on the property, whether the asset is difficult to replace, or specific characteristics unique to the particular lease that would make it reasonably certain that the Company would exercise such option. In most cases, the Company has concluded that renewal and early termination options are not reasonably certain of being exercised by the Company (and thus not included in the Company’s ROU asset and lease liability) unless there is an economic, financial or business reason to do so.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, total operating lease cost was $37,919 and is recorded in cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses, dependent on the nature of the leased asset. The operating lease cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The following summarizes (i) the future minimum undiscounted lease payments under non-cancelable lease for the remainder of 2020 as well as each of the next five years and thereafter, incorporating the practical expedient to account for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for our existing real estate leases, (ii) a reconciliation of the undiscounted lease payments to the present value of the lease liabilities recognized, and (iii) the lease-related account balances on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet, as of March 31, 2020:

Coronavirus – COVID-19

In early 2020, the coronavirus that causes COVID-19 was reported to have surfaced in China. The Company’s primary supply chain is located in China and other Asian-based locations. To date, the Company’s supply chain has not experienced any significant disruptions. The global spread of this virus has caused significant business disruption around the world including the United States, the primary area in which the Company operates and sells its products. The business disruption is currently expected to be temporary, however there is considerable uncertainty around the duration of the business disruption. Therefore, while the Company expects this matter to negatively impact the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows, the extent of the financial impact and duration cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

Note 8 – Subsequent Events

The Company evaluates events that have occurred after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020 should be read together with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this quarterly report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements and information relating to our business that reflect our current views and assumptions with respect to future events and are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause our or our industry’s actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this report. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we expressly disclaim any obligation or undertaking to disseminate any update or revisions of any of the forward-looking statements to reflect any change in our expectations with regard thereto or to conform these statements to actual results.

Overview

We were incorporated in the State of Delaware on February 8, 2012. As of December 31, 2018, we were no longer an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”). We are a security technology company and we operate our business in one segment – hardware and software security systems and applications. We are engaged in the development of proprietary products and solutions that serve multiple end markets, including the security, healthcare, financial technology and the Internet of Things (“IoT”) markets. We evaluate the performance of our business on, among other things, profit and loss from operations. With extensive experience in access control, biometric and behavior-metric identity verification, security and privacy, encryption and data protection, payments, miniaturization, and sensor technologies, we develop and market solutions for payment, IoT and healthcare applications.

Our wholly-owned subsidiary, LogicMark, manufactures and distributes non-monitored and monitored personal emergency response systems sold through the United States Department of Veterans Affairs (the “VA”), healthcare durable medical equipment dealers and distributors and monitored security dealers and distributors.

Our former wholly-owned subsidiary, Fit Pay, Inc., had a proprietary technology platform that delivers payment, credential management, authentication and other secure services to the IoT ecosystem. The platform uses tokenization, a payment security technology that replaces cardholders’ account information with a unique digital identifier, to transact highly secure contactless payment and authentication services. On September 21, 2018, we announced that our board of directors approved a plan to separate our financial technology business from our healthcare business into an independent publicly traded company. We originally planned to distribute shares of PartX, Inc., a newly created company and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“PartX”), to our stockholders through the execution of a spin-off. As a result, we reclassified our financial technology business to discontinued operations for all periods reported. Our financial technology business was comprised of our Fit Pay subsidiary and the intellectual property developed by the Company, including the Flye Smartcard and the Wocket. On April 29, 2019, a Registration Statement on Form 10 was filed by PartX with the SEC in connection with the planned spin-off of our payments, authentication and credential management business. On August 19, 2019, our subsidiary, PartX notified the SEC that it was withdrawing the Registration Statement on Form 10. With the approval of our board of directors, and upon similar terms and conditions to those set forth in that loan agreement, we entered into a non-binding letter of intent for the sale of our Fit Pay subsidiary, excluding certain assets on August 6, 2019. In connection with the letter of intent, we were advanced $500,000 of non-interest bearing working capital for Fit Pay. On September 9, 2019, we completed the sale of our Fit Pay subsidiary to Garmin International, Inc. for $3.32 million in cash. 

Healthcare

With respect to the healthcare market, our business initiatives are driven by LogicMark, which serves a market that enables two-way communication, medical device connectivity and patient data tracking of key vitals through sensors, biometrics, and security to make home health care a reality. There are four (4) major trends driving this market: (1) an increased desire for connectivity; specifically, a greater desire for connected devices by people over 60 years of age who now represent the fastest growing demographic for social media; (2) the growth of “TeleHealth”, which is the means by which telecommunications technologies are meeting the increased need for health systems to better distribute doctor care across a wider range of health facilities, making it easier to treat and diagnose patients; (3) rising healthcare costs – as healthcare spending continues to outpace the economy, the need to reduce hospital readmissions, increase staffing efficiency and improve patient engagement remain the highest priorities; and (4) the critical shortage of labor in the home healthcare industry, creating an increased need for technology to improve communication to home healthcare agencies by their clients. Together, these trends have produced a large and growing market for us to serve. LogicMark has built a successful business on emergency communications in healthcare. We have a strong business relationship with the VA today, serving veterans who suffer from chronic conditions that often require emergency assistance. This business is steady and growing, producing the highest annual revenue in its operational history in 2019. Our strategic plan calls for expanding LogicMark’s business into other healthcare verticals as well as retail and enterprise channels in order to better serve the expanding demand for connected and remote healthcare solutions.

Home healthcare, is an emerging area for LogicMark. The long-term trend toward more home-based healthcare is a massive shift that is being driven by demographics (an aging population) and basic economics. People also value autonomy and privacy which are important factors in determining which solutions will suit the market. Consumers are beginning to enjoy the benefits of smart home technologies and online digital assistants.

PERS devices are used to call for help and medical care during an emergency. These devices are also used by a wide patient pool, as well as the general population, to ensure safety and security when living or traveling alone. The global medical alert systems market caters to different end-users across the healthcare industry, including individual users, hospitals and clinics, assisted living facilities and senior living facilities. The growing demand for home healthcare devices is mainly driven by an aging population, rising healthcare costs and a severe shortage of workers in the home healthcare market worldwide. It is very beneficial for seniors who have a history of falling or have been identified as having a high fall risk, older individuals who live alone and people who have mobility issues. We believe that the aging population will spur the usage of medical alert systems across the globe, as they offer safety and medical security while being affordable and accessible.

Payments and Financial Technology

Our former wholly-owned subsidiary, Fit Pay, Inc., had a proprietary technology platform that delivered payment, credential management, authentication and other secure services to the IoT ecosystem. The platform used tokenization, a payment security technology, that replaces cardholders’ account information with a unique digital identifier, to transact highly secure contactless payment and authentication services. Fit Pay connected its customers to leading payment card networks, including VISA, Mastercard, Maestro and Discover, and to credit card issuing banks globally. Fit Pay also commercialized its third-party token service provider platform with the launch of Garmin Pay, which was powered by Fit Pay’s platform. Fit Pay’s technology and tokenization service enabled the contactless payment feature that is included in smart watches manufactured by Garmin.

On September 21, 2018, we announced that our board of directors approved a plan to separate our financial technology business from our healthcare business into an independent publicly traded company. We originally planned to distribute shares representing our financial technology business into a newly created company and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (which we named “PartX”), to our stockholders through the execution of a spin-off. As a result, we reclassified our financial technology business to discontinued operations for all periods reported. Our financial technology business was comprised of our Fit Pay subsidiary and the intellectual property developed by the Company, including the Flye Smartcard and the Wocket. On April 29, 2019, a Registration Statement on Form 10 was filed by PartX with the SEC in connection with the planned spin-off of our payments, authentication and credential management business. On August 19, 2019, our subsidiary, PartX notified the SEC that it was withdrawing the Registration Statement on Form 10 as PartX was unable to secure sufficient investment within the time period specified in a term loan agreement to separately fund the spinoff. With the approval of our board of directors, and upon similar terms and conditions to those set forth in that loan agreement, we entered into a non-binding letter of intent for a potential sale of our Fit Pay subsidiary, excluding certain assets on August 6, 2019. In connection with the letter of intent, the purchaser advanced $500,000 of non-interest bearing working capital for Fit Pay. On September 9, 2019, we completed the sale of our Fit Pay subsidiary to Garmin International, Inc. for $3.32 million in cash.

Results of Operations

Comparison of three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019

Revenue. Our revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were $3,744,029, compared to $4,181,710 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The decrease in our revenues of approximately 10% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 is primarily attributable to LogicMark’s decreased sales volume resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Cost of Revenue and Gross Profit. Our gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $2,795,905 compared to a gross profit of $3,162,076 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The decrease in gross profit in the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 is primarily attributable to LogicMark’s decreased sales volume resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Operating Expenses. Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 totaled $1,756,499 and consisted of research and development expenses of $186,612, selling and marketing expenses of $725,681 and general and administrative expenses of $844,206. The research and development expenses related primarily to salaries and consulting services of $149,445. Selling and marketing expenses consisted primarily of salaries and consulting services of $167,817, amortization of intangibles of $187,845, freight charges of $170,127, merchant processing fees of $81,343, and sales commissions of $67,856. General and administrative expenses consisted of salaries and consulting services of $237,393, accrued management and employee incentives of $40,000 and legal, audit and accounting fees of $156,517.

Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2019 totaled $2,654,425 and consisted of research and development expenses of $204,953, selling and marketing expenses of $849,513 and general and administrative expenses of $1,599,959. The research and development expenses related primarily to salaries and consulting services of $172,186. Selling and marketing expenses consisted primarily of salaries and consulting services of $185,146, amortization of intangibles of $187,845, freight charges of $155,847, merchant processing fees of $103,819, and sales commissions of $73,126. General and administrative expenses consisted of salaries and consulting services of $476,862, accrued management and employee incentives of $110,000 and legal, audit and accounting fees of $245,881. Also included in general and administrative expenses is $141,250 in non-cash stock compensation to consultants and board members.

Operating Profit. Our operating profit for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $1,039,406 compared with operating profit of $507,651 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The increase in operating profit for the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 is primarily attributable to the lower operating expenses incurred in the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 which was offset by the lower gross profit resulting from the decreased sales volume discussed above. The lower operating expenses incurred in the three months ended March 31, 2020 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019 was primarily attributable to the significant cost reductions and cost containment efforts that we implemented in the latter part of 2019.

Net Income (Loss). The net income for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $438,064 compared to a net loss of $292,973 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The net income for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was primarily attributable to the operating profit discussed above of $1,039,406 offset by interest expense incurred of $601,342. The net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $292,973 and was primarily attributable to operating profit of $507,651 offset by interest expense incurred of $586,201 and an unfavorable change in fair value of contingent consideration of $214,423. 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources of Liquidity

We have generated operating income of $1,039,406 and net income of $438,064 for the three months ended March 31, 2020. As of March 31, 2020, we had cash and stockholders’ equity of $1,438,885 and $7,284,280, respectively. At March 31, 2020, we had a working capital deficiency of $2,003,038.

Given our cash position at March 31, 2020 and our projected cash flow from operations, we believe that we will have sufficient capital to sustain operations for a period of one year following the date of this filing. We may also raise funds through equity or debt offerings to increase our working capital and to accelerate the execution of our long-term strategic plan to develop and commercialize our core products and to fulfill our product development commitments.

Cash Generated by Operating Activities. Our primary ongoing uses of operating cash relate to payments to subcontractors and vendors for product, research and development, salaries and related expenses and professional fees. Our vendors and subcontractors generally provide us with normal trade payment terms. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, net cash provided by operating activities totaled $517,260, which was comprised of net income of $438,064, positive non-cash adjustments to reconcile net income to net cash used in operating activities of $421,732, and changes in operating assets and liabilities of negative $342,536, as compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $765,858 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, which was comprised of a net loss of $292,973, positive non-cash adjustments to reconcile net loss to net cash used in operating activities of $748,519, and changes in operating assets and liabilities of positive $310,312.

Cash Used in Investing Activities. During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we did not have any net cash used in investing activities.

Cash Provided by Financing Activities. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, net cash used in financing activities totaled $665,625 and was related to our term loan repayments. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, net cash provided by financing activities totaled $1,267,606 and was primarily related to the net proceeds received from the sale of stock of $1,282,810 from our January 2019 At-the-Market Offering which was partially offset by fees paid in connection with equity offerings totaling $15,204.

Potential Impacts of COVID-19 on Our Business and Operations

The COVID-19 pandemic represents a fluid situation that presents a wide range of potential impacts of varying durations for different global geographies, including locations where we have offices, employees, customers, vendors and other suppliers and business partners.

Like most US-based businesses, the COVID-19 pandemic and efforts to mitigate the same began to have impacts on our business in March 2020. By that time, much of our first fiscal quarter was completed. Since late March 2020, we have observed recent decreases in demand from certain customers, primarily our VA hospitals.

Given the fact our products are sold through a variety of distribution channels, including through hospitals, we expect our sales will experience more volatility as a result of the changing and less predictable operational needs of many customers as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. We are aware that many companies, including many of our suppliers and customers, are reporting or predicting negative impacts from COVID-19 on future operating results. Although we observed significant declines in demand for our products from certain customers during April 2020, we believe that it remains too early for us to know the exact impact COVID-19 will have on overall demand for our products. We also cannot be certain how demand may shift over time as the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic may go through several phases of varying severity and duration.

In light of broader macro-economic risks and already known impacts on certain industries that use our products and services, we have taken and are taking targeted steps to lower our operating expenses because of the COVID-19 pandemic. We continue to monitor the impacts of COVID-19 on our operations closely and this situation could change based on a significant number of factors that are not entirely within our control and are discussed in this and other sections of this report on Form 10-Q. We do not expect there to be material changes to our assets on our balance sheet or our ability to timely account for those assets. Further, in connection with the preparation of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q and the interim financial statements contained herein, we reviewed the potential impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on goodwill and intangible assets and have determined there to be no material impact at this time. We have also reviewed the potential impacts on future risks to the business as it relates to collections, returns and other business-related items.

To date, travel restrictions and border closures have not materially impacted our ability to obtain inventory or manufacture or deliver products or services to customers. However, if such restrictions become more severe, they could negatively impact those activities in a way that would harm our business over the long term. Travel restrictions impacting people can restrain our ability to assist our customers and distributors as well as impact our ability to develop new distribution channels, but at present we do not expect these restrictions on personal travel to be material to our business operations or financial results. We have taken steps to restrain and monitor our operating expenses and therefore we do not expect any such impacts to materially change the relationship between costs and revenues.

Like most companies, we have taken a range of actions with respect to how we operate to assure we comply with government restrictions and guidelines as well as best practices to protect the health and well-being of our employees and our ability to continue operating our business effectively. To date, we have been able to operate our business effectively using these measures and to maintain all internal controls as documented and posted. We also have not experienced challenges in maintaining business continuity and do not expect to incur material expenditures to do so. However, the impacts of COVID-19 and efforts to mitigate the same have remained unpredictable and it remains possible that challenges may arise in the future.

The actions we have taken so far during the pandemic include, but are not limited to:

We currently believe revenue for the three months ending June 30, 2020 will decline significantly year over year due to the conditions noted. In April 2020, we implemented a COVID-19 mitigation plan designed to further reduce our operating expenses for the three months ending June 30, 2020. Actions taken to date include work hour and salary reductions for senior management. These cost reductions are in addition to the significant restructuring actions we initiated in the fourth quarter of 2019. Based on our current cash position, our projected cash flow from operations and our cost reduction and cost containment efforts to date, we believe that we will have sufficient capital to sustain operations for a period of one year following the date of this filing. If business interruptions resulting from COVID-19 were to be prolonged or expanded in scope, our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows would be negatively impacted. We will continue to actively monitor this situation and will implement actions necessary to maintain business continuity.  

Impact of Inflation 

We believe that our business has not been affected to a significant degree by inflationary trends during the past three years. However, inflation is still a factor in the worldwide economy and may increase the cost of purchasing products from our contract manufacturers in Asia, as well as the cost of certain raw materials, component parts and labor used in the production of our products. It also may increase our operating expenses, manufacturing overhead expenses and the cost to acquire or replace fixed assets. We have generally been able to maintain or improve our profit margins through productivity and efficiency improvements, cost reduction programs and to a lesser extent, price increases, and we expect to be able to do the same during the remainder of fiscal year 2020. As such, we do not believe that inflation will have a significant impact on our business during the remainder of fiscal year 2020. 

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements 

We do not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. In addition, we do not have any undisclosed borrowings or debt, and we have not entered into any synthetic leases. We are, therefore, not materially exposed to any financing, liquidity, market or credit risk that could arise if we had engaged in such relationships. 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements 

See Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2020, included elsewhere in this document.  

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk 

We are not required to provide the information required by this Item since we are a smaller reporting company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we are required to perform an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of March 31, 2020. Management has not completed such evaluation but has concluded, based on the material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting described below, that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2020 to provide reasonable assurance 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 is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. 

As of March 31, 2020, our management concluded that certain previously disclosed material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting continue to exist. Specifically, we have difficulty in accounting for complex accounting transactions due to an insufficient number of accounting personnel with experience in that area and limited segregation of duties within our accounting and financial reporting functions. Management has recently hired an assistant controller with significant experience to help address this situation.  Additional time is required to expand our staff, fully document our systems, implement control procedures and test their operating effectiveness before we can conclude that we have remediated our material weaknesses. 

Changes in Internal Controls 

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2020 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting. 

Limitations of the Effectiveness of Controls 

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include, but are not limited to, the realities that judgments in decision making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple errors. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. 

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

On February 24, 2020, Michael J. Orlando, a former executive officer and director of the Company, as Shareholder Representative, and the other stockholders of Fit Pay (collectively, the “Fit Pay Shareholders”), filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Company, CrowdOut Capital, LLC, and Garmin International, Inc. (the “Complaint”) alleging that we breached certain contractual obligations under a merger agreement, dated May 23, 2017, between Fit Pay and us (the “Merger Agreement”), regarding certain future, contingent earnout payments allegedly that could be owed to the Fit Pay Shareholders from future revenues (the “Earnout Payments”). We previously disclosed the Merger Agreement in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 30, 2017. The Complaint seeks monetary damages from the defendants. We believe that these claims are without merit and plan to vigorously defend the action.

From time to time we may be involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of our business. Other than as described above, there is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of our company or any of our subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting our company, or any of our subsidiaries in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect upon our business, operating results, or financial condition.
