NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

In the opinion of Management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which we considered as necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for future periods or the full year.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ipsidy Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries MultiPay S.A.S., ID Global LATAM, IDGS S.A.S., ID Solutions, Inc., FIN Holdings Inc., Ipsidy Enterprises Limited, Cards Plus Pty Ltd. and Ipsidy Peru S.A.C. (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Going Concern

As of March 31, 2022, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $121.2 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2022 the Company earned revenue of approximately $0.6 million and incurred a loss from operations of approximately $5.3 million.

The reports of our independent registered public accounting firm on our consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 contained an emphasis of matter paragraph regarding the Company’s liquidity situation and management’s plan thereto.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to meet its obligations and continue its operations for the next fiscal year.

As discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company has secured additional financing which management believes will provide adequate funding for its operations as it continues to invest in its product, people, and technology. The Company may need additional capital in the future but currently it believes it has sufficient funds to operate its business through December 31, 2023. See Notes 6, 8 and 10.

Subsequent Event

The Board of Directors of Ipsidy considers it in the best interests of the Company to focus its business activities on providing biometric identity verification products and services by means of our proprietary IDaaS platform. Accordingly, on May 4, 2022, the Board approved a plan to start to exit from certain non-core activities comprising the MultiPay correspondent bank, payments services in Colombia and the Card Plus cards manufacturing and printing business in South Africa.

Colombia

The Company plans to exit the MultiPay business in Colombia in an orderly fashion through the end of the 2022, honoring our obligations to employees, customers and under applicable laws and regulations. We plan to maintain our customer support and operations team in Bogota, which performs essential functions to support the global operations of our Verified family of products.

The Company will incur certain costs associated with its employees and other contractual obligations. MultiPay will continue to service its customer base in the interim as it will look to minimize all such costs and in addition to realize proceeds from the potential disposition of its assets. The Company cannot estimate the net costs to be incurred as a result of this decision at this time, but believes that the overall additional cash costs will not exceed $250,000. The Company has not recorded the potential costs or write-down in the three months ended March 31, 2022.

South Africa

The Company plans to exit the Cards Plus business and will seek a buy out of our interests. We have had preliminary discussions with one group but no definitive terms for the sale have been agreed at this point.

If we are successful in achieving a sale of our interest it is expected that there will be a net cash inflow resulting from the planned exit of our business in South Africa. There is no guarantee that we will be successful in finding a buyer for our interest, that such sale will be on acceptable terms or that this will result in a net cash inflow. As a result of these preliminary discussions, the Company has decided to write-down the value of the Cards Plus intangible assets and has recorded an impairment charge of approximately $144,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2022.

In the three months ended March 31, 2022, MultiPay and Cards Plus revenue was approximately $69,000 and $373,000, respectively, and MultiPay had a loss of approximately $68,000 with Cards Plus contributing approximately $11,000 of net income. These amounts do not include any corporate overhead allocation nor any amounts relating to the proposed exits.

The financial statements of Cards Plus and the Colombian operations have not been classified as discontinued operations as of March 31, 2022 as all required classification criteria under Accounting Standards Codification 205 were not met until May 2022.

Net Loss per Common Share

The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260, “Earnings per Share”. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including stock options, using the treasury stock method, and convertible notes and stock warrants, using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options, warrants and conversion of convertible notes. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. The following potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 because their effect was antidilutive:

Security
	2022		2021
Convertible notes payable		2,598,741		1,146,917
Warrants		1,544,633		1,411,308
Stock options		9,151,167		5,411,180
		13,294,541		7,969,405

Inventories

Inventory of plastic/ID cards, digital printing material, which are held by Cards Plus Pty Ltd., are at the lower of cost (using the average method) or market. The Plastic/ID cards and digital printing material are used to provide plastic loyalty ID and other types of cards. Inventories of kiosks held by IDGS S.A.S are stated at the lower of cost (using the first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value.

Inventories at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 consist of cards inventory. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, the Company recorded an inventory valuation allowance of approximately $23,000 and $20,000, respectively to reflect net realizable value of the cards inventory.

Any adjustments to reduce the cost of inventories to their net realizable value are recognized in earnings in the current period.

Revenue Recognition

Cards Plus – The Company recognizes revenue for the design and production of cards at the point in time when products are shipped, or services have been performed due to the short-term nature of the contracts. Additionally, the cards produced by the Company have no alternative use and the Company has an enforceable right to payment for work performed should the contract be cancelled. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Cards Plus had approximately $332,000 and $48,000, respectively, of contract liability from payments received in advance that will be earned in future periods.

Payment Processing – The Company recognizes revenue for variable fees generated for payment processing solutions that are earned on a usage fee over time based on monthly transaction volumes or on a monthly flat fee rate. Additionally, the Company also sells certain equipment from time to time for which revenue is recognized upon delivery to the customer.

Identity Solutions Software – The Company recognizes revenue based on the identified performance obligations over the performance period for fixed consideration and/or for variable fees generated that are earned on a usage fee earned over time based on monthly transaction or user volumes and/or on a monthly flat fee rate. The Company had a contract liability of approximately $71,000 and $150,000 as of March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively, for certain revenue that will be earned in future periods. Of the $71,000 of deferred revenue contract liability as of March 31, 2022, the majority will be earned during the balance of 2022. The majority of the deferred revenue contract liability as of December 31, 2020, was recognized in the quarter ended March 31, 2021. All contracts are reviewed for their respective performance obligations and related revenue and expense recognition implications. Certain of the revenues are derived from identity services that could include multiple performance obligations. A performance obligation is defined as a promise to provide a “distinct” good or service to a customer. The Company has determined that one possible treatment under U.S. GAAP is that these services will represent a stand-ready series of distinct daily services that are substantially the same, with the same pattern of transfer to the customer. Further, the Company has determined that the performance obligation to provide account access and facilitate transactions should meet the criteria for the “as invoiced” practical expedient, in that the Company has a right to consideration from a customer in an amount that corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the Company’s performance completed to date. As a result, the Company anticipates it may recognize revenue in the amount to which the Company has a right to invoice, based on completed performance at the relevant date. Additionally, the contracts could include implementation services, or support on an “as needed” basis and we will review each contract and determine whether such performance obligations are separate and distinct and apply the new standard accordingly to the revenue and expense derived from or related to each such service. During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company provided annual software maintenance support services relating to previously licensed software on a stand ready basis. These fees were billed in advance and recognized ratably over the requisite service period as revenue.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company had revenues from operations in North America, South America and Africa of $0.2 million, $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively, compared to $0.1 million, $0.1 million and $0.4 million, respectively, in the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Furthermore, the Company will capitalize the incremental costs of acquiring and fulfilling a contract with a customer if the Company expects to recover those costs. These incremental costs were immaterial in both three-month periods and the Company recognizes these costs as incurred as it typically relates to a period of less than 1 year as allowed by the practical expedient and the amounts in the period were immaterial.

Contract cost assets will be amortized using the straight-line method over the expected period of benefit beginning at the time revenue begins to be realized. The amortization of contract fulfillment cost assets associated with facilitating transactions will be recorded as cost of services in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. The amortization of contract acquisition cost assets associated with sales commissions that qualify for capitalization will be recorded as selling, general and administrative expense in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations.

As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company did not have any deferred contract costs or fees payable.

Revenue related to direct financing leases is outside the scope of Topic 606 and is recognized over the term of the lease using the effective interest method.

Pursuant to the Credit Facility, the Company agreed to pay a facility commitment fee of 100,000 shares of our common stock upon the effective date of the Credit Facility.

Outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility will accrue interest at 15% per annum. Drawdowns of the Credit Facility will be in tranches of not less than $500,000 up to the maximum amount of the Credit Facility, subject to the satisfaction of customary certifications and a certification from the Company that it has no more than $5 million of cash available to it as of the date of the drawdown request. The Credit Facility contemplates that the terms of the borrowings will be further set out in promissory notes that will contain representations and warranties and customary covenants and events of default. The Company will be permitted to prepay borrowings under the Credit Facility at any time, without penalty, in part or in full. Upon conversion or redemption of all amounts outstanding under the Convertible Notes and release of all security over the Company’s assets, the Company will provide a lien on the Company’s intellectual property assets to secure the Credit Facility.

There were no borrowings under the Credit Facility as of March 31, 2022. The unamortized deferred debt expense is approximately $597,000 of which $199,000 is included in other current assets and the balance in other assets.

NOTE 13 – SEGMENT INFORMATION

General information

The segment and geographic information provided in the table below is being reported consistent with the Company’s method of internal reporting. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available and which is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The CODM regularly reviews net revenue and gross profit by geographic regions. The Company’s products and services operate in two reportable segments; identity management and payment processing.

Information about revenue, profit/loss and assets

The CODM evaluates performance and allocates resources based on net revenue and operating results of the geographic region as the current operations of each geography are either primarily identity management or payment processing. Identity management revenue is generated in North America and Africa and payment processing revenue is earned in South America which are the three geographic regions of the Company. We have included the lease income in payment processing as the leases are related to unattended ticketing kiosks.

Long lived assets are in North America, South America and Africa. Most assets are intangible assets recorded from the acquisition of MultiPay (South America) in 2015 and FIN Holdings (North America and Africa) in 2016. Assets for North America, South America and Africa amounted to approximately $6.4 million, $0.1 million and $0.0 million, respectively.

Analysis of revenue by segment and geographic region and reconciliation to consolidated revenue, gross profit, and net loss are provided below. The Company has included in the schedule below an allocation of corporate overhead based on management’s estimate of resource requirements.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

Ipsidy Inc. dba authID.ai (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”, “authID.ai”, “we” or “our”) is a leading provider of secure, mobile, biometric identity verification software products delivered by an easy to integrate Identity as a Service (IDaaS) platform. Our mission is ultimately to eliminate all passwords and to be the preferred global platform for biometric identity authentication. Our vision is to enable every organization to “Recognise Your Customer” instantly, without friction or loss of privacy, powered by the most sophisticated biometric and artificial intelligence technologies.

The explosive growth in online and mobile commerce, telemedicine, remote working and digital activities of all descriptions is self-evident to everyone who lived through the Covid 19 pandemic since 2020. Identity theft, phishing attacks, spear-phishing, password vulnerabilities, account takeovers, benefits fraud - it seems like these words have entered our daily lexicon overnight. These are significant impediments to the operations and growth of any business or organization, and dealing with the risks and consequences of these criminal activities has created significant friction in both time, cost and lost opportunity. Consider all the outdated methods that organizations have implemented in order to prevent fraud. The requests to receive and enter one-time passwords, that can be easily hijacked. The vulnerable security questions you get asked – whether on-line or when reaching out to a call center – what was your first pet’s name? who was your best friend in high school? These steps all add up to friction, making it difficult for consumers to login, transact and execute daily tasks, with little added protection from fraud. Surely there is a better way to address these challenges? authID.ai believes there is.

authID.ai provides secure, facial biometric, identity verification, and strong customer authentication. We maintain a global, cloud-based IDaaS platform for our enterprise customers to enable their users to easily verify and authenticate their identity through a mobile device or desktop (with camera) of their choosing (without requiring dedicated hardware, or authentication apps). We can help our customers establish a proven identity, creating a root of trust that ensures the highest level of assurance for our passwordless login and step-up verification products. Our system enables participants to consent to transactions using their biometric information with a digitally signed authentication response, embedding the underlying transaction data and each user’s identity attributes within every electronic transaction message processed through our platform.

Digital transformation across all market segments requires trusted identity. Our identity platform offers innovative solutions that are flexible, fast and easy to integrate and offer seamless user experiences. authID’s products help advance digital transformation efforts without the fear of identity fraud, while delivering frictionless user experiences. We believe that it is also essential that electronic transactions have an audit trail, proving that the identity of the individual was duly authenticated. Our platform provides biometric and multi-factor identity software, which are intended to establish, authenticate and verify identity across a wide range of use cases and electronic transactions.

authID’s products focus on the broad requirement for enabling frictionless commerce by allowing an entity to instantly “Recognise their Customer”. Organizations of all descriptions require cost-effective and secure means of growing their business while mitigating identity fraud. We aim to offer our enterprise customers products that can be integrated easily into each of their business and organizational operations, in order to facilitate their adoption and enhance the end user customer experience.

Our management believes that some of the advantages of our IDaaS Platform approach are the ability to leverage the platform to support a variety of vertical markets and the adaptability of the platform to the requirements of new markets and new products requiring cost-effective, secure, and configurable mobile solutions. Our target markets include banking, fintech and other disrupters of traditional commerce, small and medium sized businesses, and system integrators working with government and Fortune 1000 enterprises. At its core, the Company’s offering, combining its proprietary and acquired biometric and artificial intelligence technologies (or AI), is intended to facilitate frictionless commerce, whether in the physical or digital world. The Company intends to increase its investment in developing, patenting and acquiring the various elements necessary to enhance the platform, which are intended to allow us to achieve our goals. One of the principal intended areas of investment is to enhance and expand our use of artificial intelligence in proprietary software, that we believe will increase our value to enterprise customers and stockholders alike.

authid.ai is dedicated to developing advanced methods of protecting consumer privacy and deploying ethical and socially responsible AI. authID is developing a culture that proactively encourages and rewards our employees for considering the ethical implications of our products. We believe that a proactive commitment to ethical AI presents a strong business opportunity for authID and will enable us to bring more accurate products to market more quickly and with less risk to better serve our global user base. Our methods to achieve ethical AI include engaging the users of our products with informed consent, prioritizing the security of our user’s personal information, considering and avoiding potential bias in our algorithms, and monitoring of algorithm performance in our applications.

The Company also owns an entity in South Africa, Cards Plus, which manufactures secure plastic identity credentials and loyalty card products. On May 4, 2022, the Board approved a plan to exit from certain non-core activities comprising the MultiPay correspondent bank, payments services in Colombia and the Card Plus cards manufacturing and printing business in South Africa. See subsequent event.

The Company was incorporated in the State of Delaware on September 21, 2011, and changed our name to Ipsidy Inc. on February 1, 2017. In order to better align the branding of our Company with our future focus and goals on June 14, 2021 we changed our business name to “authID.ai”. To that end, we registered domain names under that name and applied for a United States trademark registration in that name.

Our Common Stock is traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the trading symbol “AUID”. Our corporate headquarters is located at 670 Long Beach Blvd., Long Beach, NY 11561 and our main phone number is (516) 274-8700. We maintain a website at www.authid.ai. The information contained on, or that can be accessed through, our websites is not incorporated by reference into this prospectus and is intended for informational purposes only.

Adjusted EBITDA

This discussion includes information about Adjusted EBITDA that is not prepared in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and is not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. A reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure is included below.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents GAAP net income (loss) adjusted to exclude (1) interest expense, (2) interest income, (3) provision for income taxes, (4) depreciation and amortization, (5) stock-based compensation expense (stock options and restricted stock) and (6) certain other items management believes affect the comparability of operating results.

Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA, when viewed with our results under GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations, provides useful information about our period-over-period results. Adjusted EBITDA is presented because management believes it provides additional information with respect to the performance of our fundamental business activities and is also frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of comparable companies. We also rely on Adjusted EBITDA as a primary measure to review and assess the operating performance of our company and our management, and it will be a focus as we invest in and grow the business.

Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation from, or as a substitute for, analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:

●

Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;

●

Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;

●

Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements;

●

Adjusted EBITDA does not include the impact of certain charges or gains resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations.

Because of these limitations, adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA only as a supplement to our GAAP results.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company had revenues of approximately $607,000 compared to approximately $589,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2021. The increase in revenue is principally related to higher income at authID.ai, resulting from adding new customers for identity services offset by a reduction in revenue at Cards Plus and our Colombian business due to the impact of Covid-19.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, cost of sales was less than the cost of sales in the three months ended March 31, 2021 principally due to higher margin revenue at Cards Plus.

General and administrative expenses

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2022 compared to March 31, 2021, general and administrative expense increased by approximately $2.8 million principally due to higher non-cash stock compensation charges ($1.2 million), higher compensation, marketing, and professional fee costs as the Company makes investment in people, marketing and its product offering.

Research and development expenses

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2022 compared to March 31, 2021, research and development expenses increased by approximately $0.2 million as the Company increased staffing and third party resources as it focuses on key products initiatives.

Impairment loss

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded an impairment loss of approximately $144,000 associated with intangible assets at one of its reporting units.

Depreciation and amortization expense

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2022 compared to March 31, 2021, depreciation and amortization expense was approximately $0.1 million less as the Company reduced the value of certain legacy business asset values.

Interest expense

Interest expense decreased during the three-month period ended March 31, 2022, compared to March 31, 2021, principally due to the conversion of the majority of convertible notes, which were outstanding in 2021, into common shares in June 2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company has approximately $13.8 million of cash on hand and working capital of approximately $12.0 million as of March 31, 2022, as the recent fund raise provided cash of approximately $11.4 million.

Cash used in operating activities was approximately $3.1 million and $1.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021, respectively.

Cash provided by financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2022, was as follows:

●

The Company entered into an SPA with the Note Investors, and, pursuant to the SPA, sold to the Note Investors the Convertible Notes with an aggregate initial principal amount of approximately $9.2 million and a conversion price of $3.70 per share. The Convertible Notes were sold with an aggregate cash origination fee of approximately $200,000, and we are issuing a total of approximately 28,500 shares of our common stock to the Note Investors as an additional origination fee.

●

The Company entered into Subscription Agreements with the PIPE Investors, and, pursuant to the Subscription Agreements, sold to the PIPE Investors a total of 1,063,514 shares of our common stock at prices of $3.03 per share for an outside investor and $3.70 per share for the management investors. The aggregate gross proceeds from the PIPE are approximately $3.3 million.

Additionally, the Company entered into a Credit Facility with an accredited investor, who is both a current shareholder of the Company and a Note Investor, pursuant to which the accredited investor agreed to provide a $10.0 million unsecured standby line of credit facility that will rank behind the Convertible Notes and may be drawn down in several tranches, subject to certain conditions described in the Credit Facility. Pursuant to the Credit Facility, the Company agreed to pay the lender a facility commitment fee of 100,000 shares of our common stock upon the effective date of the Credit Facility Agreement. There were no borrowings under the Credit Facility as of March 31, 2022.

The Company may need additional capital in the future but because of the above financing activities, we believe we have sufficient funds to operate its business through December 31, 2023.

Covid 19

Covid-19 emerged globally in December 2019, and it has been declared a pandemic. Covid-19 is still impacting customers, business, results and financial condition throughout the world. The Company’s day-to-day operations have been impacted differently depending on geographic location and services that are being performed. The Cards Plus business located in South Africa operations has had limitations on its operations as they are following the guidance and requirements of the South African government. Our operations in the United States and Colombia have suffered less immediate impact as most staff can work remotely and can continue to develop our product offerings.

That said we have seen our business opportunities develop more slowly as business partners and potential customers include Covid-19 considerations. Furthermore, working remotely can cause a delay in decision making and finalization of negotiations and agreements.

Ukraine

The war in Ukraine may impact the Company and its operations in a number of different ways, which are yet to be fully assessed and are therefore uncertain. The Company works with third party sub-contractors for outsourced services, including software engineering and development, some of whom are based in Eastern Europe, including Russia and Ukraine. The Company also works with outsourced engineers and developers and third-party providers in other parts of the world, including the United States, India, South Africa and South America. While the continuing impact of this conflict and the response of the United States and other countries to it by means of trade and economic sanctions, or other actions is still unknown, any disruption of our ability to work with such contractors caused by this conflict could require the Company to seek alternative sub-contractors at short notice, which may give rise to additional costs and delays in delivering software and product upgrades.

The uncertainty impacting and potential interruption in energy and other supply chains resulting from military hostilities in Europe and the response of the United States and other countries to it by means of trade and economic sanctions, or other actions, may give rise to increases in costs of goods and services generally and may impact the market for our products as prospective customers reconsider additional capital expenditure, or other investment plans until the situation becomes clearer. On the other hand, the threat of increased cyber-attacks from Russia or other countries may prompt enterprises to adopt additional security measures such as those offered by the Company.

For so long as the hostilities continue and perhaps even thereafter as the situation in Europe unfolds, we may see increased volatility in financial markets and a flight to safety by investors, which may make it more difficult for the Company to raise additional capital at the time when it needs to do so, or for financing to be available upon acceptable terms. All or any of these risks separately, or in combination could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

Subsequent Event

Colombia

The Company plans to exit the MultiPay business in Colombia in an orderly fashion through the end of 2022, honoring our obligations to employees, customers and under applicable laws and regulations. We plan to maintain our customer support and operations team in Bogota, which performs essential functions to support the global operations of our Verified family of products.

South Africa

The financial statements of Cards Plus and the Colombian operations have not been classified as discontinued operations as of March 31, 2022, as all required classification criteria under Accounting Standards Codification 205 were not met until May 2022.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is deemed by our management to be material to investors.

Recent Accounting Policies

The recent material accounting policies that may be the most critical to understanding of the financial results and conditions are discussed in Note 1 of the unaudited financial statements.

In August the FASB issued a new standard (ASU 2021-06) to reduce the complexity of accounting for convertible debt and other equity-linked instruments. For certain convertible debt instruments with a cash conversion feature, the changes are a trade-off between simplifications in the accounting model (no separation of an “equity” component to impute a market interest rate, and simpler analysis of embedded equity features) and a potentially adverse impact to diluted EPS by requiring the use of the if-converted method. The new standard will also impact other financial instruments commonly issued by both public and private companies. For example, the separation model for beneficial conversion features is eliminated simplifying the analysis for issuers of convertible debt and convertible preferred stock. Also, certain specific requirements to achieve equity classification and/ or qualify for the derivative scope exception for contracts indexed to an entity’s own equity are removed, enabling more freestanding instruments and embedded features to avoid mark-to-market accounting. The new standard is effective for companies that are SEC filers (except for Smaller Reporting Companies) for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021 and interim periods within that year, and two years later for other companies. Companies can early adopt the standard at the start of a fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2021. The standard can either be adopted on a modified retrospective or a full retrospective basis. The Company is currently reviewing the newly issued standard and does not believe it will materially impact the Company.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to include disclosure under this item.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based on the evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2022, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the report that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time, the Company is a party to various legal or administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. While any litigation contains an element of uncertainty, we have no reason to believe the outcome of such proceedings will have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or results of operations of the Company.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Risk factors describing the major risks to our business can be found under Item 1A, “Risk Factors”, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. There has been no material change in our risk factors from those previously discussed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

On March 21, 2022, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (“SPA”) with certain accredited investors, including certain directors of the Company or their affiliates (the “Note Investors”), and, pursuant to the SPA, sold to the Note Investors Senior Secured Convertible Notes (the “Convertible Notes”) with an aggregate initial principal amount of approximately $9.2 million and a conversion price of $3.70 per share. The Convertible Notes were sold with an aggregate cash origination fee of approximately $200,000, and we issued a total of approximately 28,500 shares of our common stock to the Note Investors as an additional origination fee. The Convertible Notes will accrue interest at the rate of 9.75% per annum, which will be payable in cash or, for some or all of the first five interest payments, in shares of our common stock at the Company’s option, on the last day of each calendar quarter before the maturity date and on the maturity date. The maturity date of the Convertible Notes is March 31, 2025.

On March 18 and March 21, 2022, the Company entered into Subscription Agreements (the “Subscription Agreements”) with an accredited investor and certain members of authID.ai’s management team (the “PIPE Investors”), and, pursuant to the Subscription Agreements, sold to the PIPE Investors a total of 1,063,514 shares of our common stock at prices of $3.03 per share for an outside investor and $3.70 per share for the management investors (the “PIPE”). The aggregate gross proceeds from the PIPE are approximately $3.3 million.

Additionally, the Company entered into a Credit Facility with an accredited investor, who is both a current shareholder of the Company and a Note Investor, pursuant to which the accredited investor agreed to provide a $10.0 million unsecured standby line of credit facility that will rank behind the Convertible Notes and may be drawn down in several tranches, subject to certain conditions described in the Credit Facility. Pursuant to the Credit Facility, the Company agreed to pay the Lender a facility commitment fee of 100,000 shares of our common stock upon the effective date of the Facility Agreement.

The gross proceeds of the sale of the Convertible Notes and the PIPE were used to pay the expenses of those offerings and to provide working capital for the Company.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, the Company issued approximately 186,488 shares of common stock pursuant to cashless exercises of common stock purchase warrants and options.

The securities described herein been offered and sold pursuant to exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act afforded by Section 4(a)(2) thereof and Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder, for the sale of securities not involving a public offering.

ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

None.

ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES

Not applicable to our operations.

ITEM 5. OTHER INFORMATION

On March 21, 2022, the Company entered into a Credit Facility with Stephen J. Garchik, who is both a current shareholder of the Company and holds Senior Secured Convertible Notes (“Garchik”), pursuant to which Garchik agreed to provide to the Company a $10.0 million unsecured standby line of credit facility that will rank behind the Senior Secured Convertible Notes and may be drawn down in several tranches, subject to certain conditions described in the Facility Agreement. Upon request by Garchik and until the full amount due under the Credit Facility is repaid in full, the Company will provide for the nomination of one designee specified in writing by Garchik for appointment to our board of directors and for subsequent election to our board of directors and to recommend such nominee for election to our board of directors. The Company will be entitled to reject any nominee upon reasonable grounds, or the nominee may not be elected by the stockholders, in which case Garchik may nominate another person to be a director.

On April 18, 2022, Joseph Trelin, as Garchik’s designee under the Credit Facility, was appointed as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company. Except as set forth above, there is no understanding or arrangement between Mr. Trelin and any other person pursuant to which Mr. Trelin was selected as a director of the Company. Mr. Trelin does not have any family relationship with any director, executive officer or person nominated or chosen by us to become a director or an executive officer. Mr. Trelin has not had direct or indirect material interest in any transaction or proposed transaction, in which the Company was or is a proposed participant exceeding $120,000.

On April 18, 2022, Mr. Trelin entered into a letter agreement with the Company pursuant to which he was appointed as a director of the Company in consideration of (i) an initial equity award having a Black Scholes value on the date of grant of $270,000, subject to annual vesting of one-third of the common shares over three years on the date of each Annual Meeting commencing with the 2022 Annual Meeting and (b) commencing following the Company’s 2023 Annual Meeting, assuming Mr. Trelin is re-elected to office, an annual equity award having a Black Scholes value on the date of grant of $90,000, subject to vesting over twelve months.

On April 25, 2022, Stuart Stoller indicated his intention to resign as Chief Financial Officer of the Company in connection with his planned retirement. The resignation and retirement have a planned effective date of June 17, 2022 at which time Annie Pham will be appointed Chief Financial Officer in his place.

On April 25, 2022, Ms. Pham and the Company entered an Offer Letter pursuant to which Ms. Pham agreed to serve as Chief Financial Officer with a planned employment date commencing June 20, 2022 or such other date as may be agreed. Ms. Pham will receive an annual salary of $275,000. The Company agreed to provide a bonus of 40% of the base salary (pro rated for 2022) based on achievement of performance milestones, calculated and payable in accordance with the corporate milestones approved by the Board for the year 2022. For subsequent fiscal years the bonus shall be subject to performance targets to be mutually agreed with the Compensation Committee of the Board. In addition, Ms. Pham will receive a signing bonus in the amount of $25,000, which is fully refundable to the Company if Ms. Pham leaves her employment voluntarily or is terminated for cause prior to the first anniversary of the commencement of employment. The employment of Ms. Pham will be at will and may be terminated at any time, with or without formal cause. The Company also entered an Executive Retention Agreement with Ms. Pham, pursuant to which the Company agreed to provide specified severance and bonus amounts and to accelerate the vesting on her equity awards upon termination upon a change of control or an involuntary termination, as each term is defined in the agreements. In the event of a termination upon a change of control or an involuntary termination, Ms. Pham is entitled to receive an amount equal to 100% of her base salary and the target bonus then in effect for the executive officer for the year in which such termination occurs. At the election of the executive officer, the Company will also continue to provide health related employee insurance coverage for up to twelve months, at the Company’s expense. Upon commencing employment, Ms. Pham will be granted an option to acquire 350,000 shares of common stock with an exercise price equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant and an exercise period of ten years subject to certain performance vesting requirements.
