NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Description of Business
Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, references in this subsection to “we,” “us,” “our,” “the Company,” and other similar terms refer to Digerati and its subsidiaries.
Digerati Technologies, Inc., a Nevada corporation (including our subsidiaries, “we,” “us,” “Company” or “Digerati”), through its operating subsidiaries, (i) Verve Cloud, Inc. (formerly known as T3 communications, Inc.), a Nevada corporation (“Verve Cloud Nevada”), (ii) Verve Cloud, Inc. (formerly known as Shift8 Networks, Inc.), a Texas corporation (“Verve Cloud Texas”), (iii) T3 Communications, Inc., a Florida corporation (“T3 Communications”), (iv) Nexogy, Inc., a Florida corporation (“Nexogy”) and (v) NextLevel Internet, Inc., a California corporation (“Next Level” and, together with Verve Cloud Nevada, Verve Cloud Texas, T3 Communications and Nexogy, the “Operating Subsidiaries”), which, as of June 1, 2023, operate as a single business unit under the Verve Cloud name and have locations in Texas, Florida and California, provides cloud services specializing in Unified Communications as a Service (“UCaaS”) and broadband connectivity solutions for the business market. Our product line includes a portfolio of Internet-based telephony products and services delivered through our cloud application platform and session-based communication network and network services including Internet broadband, fiber, mobile broadband, and cloud Wide Area Network (“WAN”) or Software-defined Wide Area Network (“SD WAN”) solutions.
Digerati provides enterprise-class, carrier-grade services to the small-to-medium-sized business (“SMB”) at cost-effective monthly rates. Digerati’s UCaaS or cloud communication services include fully hosted Internet Protocol (“IP”)/private branch exchange (“PBX”), video conferencing, mobile applications, Voice over Internet Protocol (“VoIP”) transport, Session Initiation Protocol (“SIP”) trunking, and customized VoIP services all delivered Only in the Cloud™.
Basis of presentation and consolidation
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of Digerati Technologies, Inc. have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, these interim financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the consolidated financial statements, which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended July 31, 2023, contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on November 24, 2023, have been omitted.
Reclassification
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations or net assets of the Company.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period. Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the respective period presented in the Company’s accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. Fully-diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similarly to basic income (loss) per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of dilutive Common Stock equivalents using the treasury stock method for options and warrants and the if-converted method for convertible debt.

Customers and Suppliers
We rely on various suppliers to provide services in connection with our VOIP and UCaaS offerings. Our customers include businesses in various industries including Healthcare, Banking, Financial Services, Legal, Real Estate, and Construction. We are not dependent upon any single supplier or customer.
During
the three months ended October 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company did not derive revenues of
As

Sources of revenue:
The Company recognizes cloud-based hosted services revenue, mainly from subscription services for its cloud telephony applications that includes hosted IP/PBX services, SIP trunking, call center applications, auto attendant, voice, and web conferencing, call recording, messaging, voicemail to email conversion, integrated mobility applications that are device and location agnostic, and other customized applications. Other services include enterprise-class data and connectivity solutions through multiple broadband technologies including cloud WAN or SD-WAN, fiber, and Ethernet over copper. We also offer remote network monitoring, data backup and disaster recovery services. The Company applies a five-step approach in determining the amount and timing of revenue to be recognized: (i) identifying the contract with a customer, (ii) identifying the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determining the transaction price, (iv) allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and (v) recognizing revenue when the performance obligation is satisfied. Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is recognized at the time control of the products transfers to the customer.
Service Revenue
Service revenue from subscriptions to the Company’s cloud-based technology platform is recognized over time on a ratable basis over the contractual subscription term beginning on the date that the platform is made available to the customer. Payments received in advance of subscription services being rendered are recorded as deferred revenue. Usage fees, either bundled or not bundled, are recognized when the Company has a right to invoice. Professional services for configuration, system integration, optimization, customer training and/or education are primarily billed on a fixed-fee basis and are performed by the Company directly. Alternatively, customers may choose to perform these services themselves or engage their own third-party service providers. Professional services revenue is recognized over time, generally as services are activated for the customer.
Product Revenue
The Company recognizes product revenue for telephony equipment at a point-in-time, when transfer of control has occurred, which is generally upon delivery. Sales returns are recorded as a reduction to revenue estimated based on historical data.

Deferred Income
Deferred
income represents billings or payment received in advance of revenue recognition and is recognized upon transfer of control. Balances
consist primarily of annual plan subscription services, for services not yet provided as of the balance sheet date. Deferred revenues
that will be recognized during the succeeding 12-month period are recorded as current deferred revenues in the consolidated balance sheets,
with the remainder recorded as other noncurrent liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred income as of October 31, 2023
and July 31, 2023 was $
Customer deposits
The
Company in some instances requires customers to make deposits for the last month of services, equipment, installation charges and training.
As equipment is installed and training takes place, the deposits are then applied to revenue. The deposit for the last month of services
is applied to any outstanding balances if services are cancelled. If the customer’s account is paid in full, the Company will refund
the full deposit in the month following service termination. As of October 31, 2023 and July 31, 2023, Digerati’s customer deposits
balance was $
Costs to Obtain a Customer Contract
Direct
incremental costs of obtaining a contract consisting of sales commissions are deferred and amortized over the estimated life of the customer,
which currently averages
Direct Costs - Cloud software and service
We incur bandwidth and colocation charges in connection with our UCaaS or cloud communication services. The bandwidth charges are incurred as part of the connectivity between our customers to allow them access to our various services. We also incur costs from underlying providers for fiber, internet broadband, and telecommunication circuits in connection with our data and connectivity solutions.
Derivative financial instruments.
Digerati does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks. However, Digerati evaluates its convertible instruments and free-standing instruments such as warrants for derivative liability accounting.
For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date. Any changes in fair value are recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense for each reporting period. For derivative notes payable conversion options and warrants Digerati uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to value the derivative instruments.
The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument is probable within the next 12 months from the balance sheet date.
9
Fair Value of Financial Instruments.
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. A fair value hierarchy is used which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The fair value hierarchy based on the three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value are as follows:
| Level 1 – | Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
| Level 2 – | Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. |
| Level 3 – | Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are financial instruments whose values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation. |
For certain of our financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments. The carrying value of our long-term debt approximates its fair value based on the quoted market prices for the same or similar issues or the current rates offered to us for debt of the same remaining maturities.

derivative liabilities as of October 31, 2023 and July 31, 2023 were $

Noncontrolling interest
The Company follows Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810, Consolidation, which governs the accounting for and reporting of non-controlling interests (“NCIs”) in partially owned consolidated subsidiaries and the loss of control of subsidiaries. Certain provisions of this standard indicate, among other things, that NCIs be treated as a separate component of equity, not as a liability, that increases and decreases in the parent’s ownership interest that leave control intact be treated as equity transactions rather than as step acquisitions or dilution gains or losses, and that losses of a partially owned consolidated subsidiary be allocated to the NCI even when such allocation might result in a deficit balance. The net income (loss) attributed to the NCI is separately designated in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements.
Recent accounting pronouncements, other than below, issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the AICPA and the SEC did not, or are not, believed by management to have a material effect on the Company’s present or future financial statements.
In August 2020, the FASB issued “ASU 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)” which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments. The guidance removes certain accounting models which separate the embedded conversion features from the host contract for convertible instruments. Either a modified retrospective method of transition or a fully retrospective method of transition is permissible for the adoption of this standard. Update No. 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this ASU on its financial statements.
On August 1, 2023, the Company adopted “ASU 2016-13 Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASC 326).” This standard replaced the incurred loss methodology with an expected loss methodology that is referred to as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) methodology. CECL requires an estimate of credit losses for the remaining estimated life of the financial asset using historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts and generally applies to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including recognition of credit losses on financing receivables and other financial assets in scope. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN
Financial Condition
The Company’s consolidated financial statements
have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal
course of business. Since the Company’s inception in 1993, the Company has incurred net losses and accumulated a deficit of approximately
$
Management Plans to Continue as a Going Concern
Management believes that available resources as of October 31, 2023, will not be sufficient to fund the Company’s operations and corporate expenses over the next 12 months. The Company’s ability to continue to meet its obligations and to achieve its business objectives is dependent upon, among other things, raising additional capital, issuing stock-based compensation to certain members of the executive management team in lieu of cash, or generating sufficient revenue in excess of costs. At such time as the Company requires additional funding, the Company will seek to secure such best-efforts funding from various possible sources, including equity or debt financing, sales of assets, or collaborative arrangements. If the Company raises additional capital through the issuance of equity securities or securities convertible into equity, stockholders will experience dilution, and such securities may have rights, preferences, or privileges senior to those of the holders of common stock or convertible senior notes. If the Company raises additional funds by issuing debt, the Company may be subject to limitations on its operations, through debt covenants or other restrictions. If the Company obtains additional funds through arrangements with collaborators or strategic partners, the Company may be required to relinquish its rights to certain technologies. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional funds or raise them on acceptable terms. If the Company is unable to obtain financing on acceptable terms, it may be unable to execute its business plan, the Company could be required to curtail its operations, and the Company may not be able to pay off its obligations, if and when they come due.
We are currently taking initiatives to reduce our overall cash deficiencies on a monthly basis. During Fiscal Year 2024, certain members of our executive management team have continued to take a significant portion of their compensation in common stock and deferred compensation to reduce the depletion of our available cash. To strengthen our business, we intend to adopt best practices from our recent acquisitions and invest in a marketing and sales strategy to grow our monthly recurring revenue; we anticipate utilizing our value-added resellers and channel partners to tap into new sources of revenue streams; and we have also secured numerous agent agreements through our recent acquisitions that we anticipate will accelerate revenue growth. In addition, we will continue to focus on selling a greater number of comprehensive services to our existing customer base. Further, in an effort to increase our revenues, we will continue to evaluate the acquisition of various assets with emphasis in VoIP Services and Cloud Communication Services. As a result, during the due diligence process we anticipate incurring significant legal and professional fees.
We have been successful in raising debt and equity capital in the past and as described in Notes 6, 7, and 8. We have financing efforts in place to continue to raise cash through debt and equity offerings. Although we have successfully completed financings and reduced expenses in the past, we cannot assure you that our plans to address these matters in the future will be successful.
We require cash to meet our interest payments to Post Road (as defined below), capital expenditure needs, and operational cash flow needs. The Company anticipates issuing additional equity or entering into additional Convertible Notes to secure the funding required to meet these cash needs. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional funds or raise them on acceptable terms. If the Company is unable to obtain financing on acceptable terms, the Company may not be able to meet its interest payments, capital expenditures, and operational needs. As a result, the Company will be required to negotiate with its lender the terms of the current financing agreements, in addition to postponing the timing of deployment of its capital expenditures and extending the timing of the operational cash needs.
The Operating Subsidiaries are parties to the Credit Agreement, dated as of November 17, 2020 (as amended from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among the Operating Subsidiaries, Post Road Special Opportunity Fund II LLP (“PRSOF”), as a lender, the other lenders party thereto and Post Road Administrative LLC (“PR Administrative” and, together with its affiliate PRSOF, “Post Road”), as administrative agent for the lenders. The Company is also a party to certain sections of the Credit Agreement. Next Level Internet, Inc. became an Operating Subsidiary and a party to the Credit Agreement in February 2022.
The Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and indemnification provisions. The Credit Agreement also contains affirmative and negative covenants with respect to the operation of the business and properties of the loan parties as well as financial performance.

Below are key financial covenant requirements, (measured quarterly) for the fiscal quarter ended October 31, 2023:
| ● | Minimum–Allowed – EBITDA (on an annualized basis) of $4,710,385 |
| ● | Minimum–Allowed - Liquidity of $2,000,000 |
| ● | Maximum Allowed - Capital Expenditures of $94,798 (Quarterly) |
| ● | Minimum–Allowed – Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.50 to 1.00 |
| ● | Maximum Allowed - Churn of 3.00% at any time |
As of October 31, 2023, the Company was not in compliance with the financial covenants under the Credit Agreement. This noncompliance, together with certain other events of default that have occurred and are continuing under the Credit Agreement, resulted in our classifying the indebtedness under the Credit Agreement as a current liability. While Digerati, the parent company of Verve Cloud Nevada, is not subject to these financial covenants, they have had and will continue to have a material impact on Verve Cloud Nevada’s expenditures and ability to raise funds.
The Operating Subsidiaries’ obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by first priority security interests in (a) the equity interests of the Operating Subsidiaries (other than Verve Cloud Nevada), pursuant to the Pledge Agreement, dated November 17, 2020 (the “Pledge Agreement”), made by Verve Cloud Nevada in favor of Post Road Administrative and (b) substantially all of the other assets of the Operating Subsidiaries, pursuant to the Guaranty and Collateral Agreement, dated November 17, 2020, subsequently amended on December 31, 2021, February 4, 2022, December 15, 2022, and February 3, 2023 (the “Guaranty and Collateral Agreement”), among the Operating Subsidiaries and Post Road Administrative.
During the period beginning on November 1, 2021, and ending on October 31, 2023, the Company and Post Road entered into several amendments and other modifications to the Credit Agreement. Specifically:
| ● | On December 15, 2022, Post Road agreed to forbear from exercising its remedies in connection with the Company’s failure to comply with the financial covenants in the Credit Agreement as of the last day of the fiscal quarter ended October 31, 2022, as well as certain other specified defaults, until December 23, 2022. |
| ● | On February 3, 2023, with an effective date of December 23, 2022, Digerati, the Operating Subsidiaries and Post Road entered into a Consent, Limited Waiver and Fourth Amendment to Credit Agreement and Amendment to Notes (the “Fourth Amendment”). Among other things, the Fourth Amendment (a) conditionally revised each of the six financial covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement (related to maximum leverage, minimum liquidity, minimum EBITDA, maximum capital expenditures, minimum interest coverage (a provision that replaced the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio provision), and maximum churn), (b) conditionally waived all then-existing events of default under the Credit Agreement and (c) modified the interest rates payable under the Credit Agreement. In addition, the Fourth Amendment provided that none of the revised financial covenants (other than minimum liquidity of $ |

| ● | On April 3, 2023, Digerati, the Operating Subsidiaries, and Post Road entered into a Sixth Amendment to its Credit Agreement (the “Sixth Amendment”), which (a) deferred the cash interest otherwise due and payable on April 1, 2023, to May 1, 2023, and (b) increased the net principal amount of additional convertible notes the Company was permitted by the Credit Agreement to have outstanding from $ |

| ● | On August 16, 2023, Digerati, the Operating Subsidiaries and Post Road entered into a letter agreement, pursuant to which Post Road agreed that all accrued interest that was originally due and payable in cash by the Operating Subsidiaries on April 3, 2023, May 1, 2023, June 1, 2023, July 3, 2023 and August 1, 2023 would, instead, be added to the outstanding principal balances of Term Loan A and Term Loan C, as applicable, under the Credit Agreement on the effective date of the letter agreement, and due on the maturity dates of such loans, along with all other principal and interest amounts thereunder. |
Additionally,
on November 22, 2023 (with effect from November 2, 2023), the Operating Subsidiaries, Digerati and Post Road entered into a Second Forbearance
Agreement, Amendment to Loan Documents and Limited Consent, which (a) extends the maturity date of our Term Loan C Note with Post Road
from November 2, 2023, to December 31, 2023, (b) provides that Post Road and the other lenders under the Credit Agreement shall forbear
through December 31, 2023 from exercising their rights and remedies under the loan documents and applicable law with respect to (i) certain
existing events of default under the loan documents and (ii) certain events of default that are expected to arise before December 31,
2023, and (c) amends certain provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other loan documents to allow the company to incur up to an additional

The Company will continue to work with various funding sources to secure additional debt and equity financings. However, Digerati cannot offer any assurance that it will be successful in executing the aforementioned plans to continue as a going concern.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. “Forward-looking statements” are those statements that describe management’s beliefs and expectations about the future. We have identified forward-looking statements by using words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “may,” “expect,” “plan,” and “intend.” Although we believe these expectations are reasonable, our operations involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Some of these risks include the availability and capacity of competitive data transmission networks and our ability to raise sufficient capital to continue operations. Additional risks are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2023, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 24, 2023.
The following Is a discussion of the unaudited interim consolidated financial condition and results of operations of Digerati for the three months ended October 31, 2023 and 2022. It should be read in conjunction with our audited Consolidated Financial Statements, the Notes thereto, and the other financial information included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2023, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 24, 2023. For purposes of the following discussion, fiscal 2024 or 2024 refers to the year that will end on July 31, 2024, and fiscal 2023 or 2023 refers to the year ended July 31, 2023.
Overview
Digerati Technologies, Inc., a Nevada corporation (including our subsidiaries, “we,” “us,” “Company” or “Digerati”), through its operating subsidiaries, (i) Verve Cloud, Inc. (formerly known as T3 communications, Inc.), a Nevada corporation (“Verve Cloud Nevada”), (ii) Verve Cloud, Inc. (formerly known as Shift8 Networks, Inc.), a Texas corporation (“Verve Cloud Texas”), (iii) T3 Communications, Inc., a Florida corporation (“T3 Communications”), (iv) Nexogy, Inc., a Florida corporation (“Nexogy”) and (v) NextLevel Internet, Inc., a California corporation (“Next Level” and, together with Verve Cloud Nevada, Verve Cloud Texas, T3 Communications and Nexogy, the “Operating Subsidiaries”)., which, as of June 1, 2023, operate as a single business unit under the Verve Cloud name and have locations in Texas, Florida and California, provides cloud services specializing in Unified Communications as a Service (“UCaaS”) and broadband connectivity solutions for the business market. Our product line includes a portfolio of Internet-based telephony products and services delivered through our cloud application platform and session-based communication network and network services including Internet broadband, fiber, mobile broadband, and cloud Wide Area Network (“WAN”) or Software-defined Wide Area Network (“SD WAN”) solutions. Digerati Technologies, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada in 1994.
We provide enterprise-class, carrier-grade services to the small-to-medium-sized business (“SMB”) at cost-effective monthly rates. Our UCaaS or cloud communication services include fully hosted Internet Protocol (“IP”)/private branch exchange (“PBX”), video conferencing, mobile applications, Voice over Internet Protocol (“VoIP”) transport, Session Initiation Protocol (“SIP”) trunking, and customized VoIP services all delivered Only in the Cloud™. Our broadband connectivity solutions for the delivery of digital oxygen are designed for reliability, business continuity and to optimize bandwidth for businesses using the Company’s cloud communication services and other cloud-based applications.
33
As a provider of cloud communications solutions to the SMB, we are seeking to capitalize on the migration by businesses from the legacy telephone network to the IP telecommunication network and the migration from hardware-based on-premise telephone systems to software-based communication systems in the cloud. Most SMBs are lagging in technical capabilities and advancement and seldom reach the economies of scale that their larger counterparts enjoy, due to their achievement of a critical mass and ability to deploy a single solution to a large number of workers. SMBs are typically unable to afford comprehensive enterprise solutions and, therefore, need to integrate a combination of business solutions to meet their needs. Cloud computing has revolutionized the industry and opened the door for businesses of all sizes to gain access to enterprise applications with affordable pricing. This especially holds true for cloud telephony applications, but SMBs are still a higher-touch sale that requires customer support for system integration, network installation, cabling, and troubleshooting. We have placed a significant emphasis on that “local” touch when selling, delivering, and supporting our services which we believe will differentiate us from the national providers that are experiencing high attrition rates due to poor customer support.
The adoption of cloud communication services is being driven by the convergence of several market trends, including the increasing costs of maintaining installed legacy communications systems, the fragmentation resulting from use of multiple on-premise systems, and the proliferation of personal smartphones used in the workplace. Today, businesses are increasingly looking for an affordable path to modernizing their communications system to improve productivity, business performance and customer experience. Modernization has also led to businesses adopting other cloud-based business applications, including customer relationship management (“CRM”), payroll, and accounting software, placing an even more important emphasis on reliable Internet connectivity.
Our cloud solutions offer the SMB reliable, robust, and full-featured services at affordable monthly rates that eliminates high-cost capital expenditures and provides for integration with other cloud-based systems. By providing a variety of comprehensive and scalable solutions, we can cater to businesses of different sizes on a monthly subscription basis, regardless of the stage of development for the business.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures - Reconciliation of Net Income (Loss) to Adjusted EBITDA – OPCO and Adjusted EBITDA – Income
EBITDA from operations and income, as adjusted, are non-GAAP measures and should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for, net income (loss), cash flow and other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). In addition, this measure does not reflect cash available to fund requirements and excludes items, such as corporate expenses, transactional legal expenses, stock option expense, and depreciation and amortization, which are significant components in assessing the Company’s financial performance. The Company believes that the presentation of EBITDA from operations and income, as adjusted, provides useful information regarding the Company’s operations and other factors that affect the Company’s reported results. Specifically, the Company believes that by excluding certain one-time or non-cash items such as transactional legal fees and depreciation and amortization, as well as potential distortions between periods caused by factors such as financing and capital structures, the Company provides users of its consolidated financial statements with insight into both its operations as well as the factors that affect reported results between periods but which the Company believes are not representative of its operations. As a result, users of the Company’s consolidated financial statements are better able to evaluate changes in the financial consolidated results of the Company across different periods.

The following tables provide information regarding certain non-GAAP financial measures for Digerati for the three months ended October 31, 2023 and 2022. Management utilizes these metrics to track and forecast revenue trends and expected results from operations:

Results of Operations
Three Months ended October 31, 2023 as Compared to the Three Months ended October 31, 2022.
Cloud Software and Service Revenue. Cloud software and service revenue decreased by $476,000, or 6%, from the three months ended October 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended October 31, 2023. The decrease in revenue is primarily attributed to the decrease in total customers. Our total number of customers decreased from 4,565 for three months ended October 31, 2022 to 4,449 customers for the three months ended October 31, 2023. Our primary emphasis is to increase our customer base, growing the monthly recuring revenue, and providing exceptional customer support.
Cost of Services (exclusive of depreciation and amortization). The cost of services decreased by $300,000, or 11%, from three months ended October 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended October 31, 2023. Our total number of customers decreased from 4,565 for the three months ended October 31, 2022 to 4,449 customers for the three months ended October 31, 2023. Our consolidated gross margin decreased by $176,000, or 3%, from the three months ended October 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended October 31, 2023. We are not aware of any events that are reasonably likely to cause a material change in the relationship between our costs and our revenues.
Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expenses (exclusive of legal and professional fees and stock compensation expense). SG&A expenses increased by $59,000, or 1%, from three months ended October 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended October 31, 2023. The increase to SG&A expenses was partially due to an increase in headcount.
Stock Compensation expense. Stock compensation expenses decreased by $11,000, or 48%, from the three months ended October 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended October 31, 2023. The decrease to stock-based compensation expense was primarily due increased vesting of stock options.
Legal and professional fees. Legal and professional fees increased by $417,000, or 75%, from the three months ended October 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended October 31, 2023, which include legal and professional fees that relate to due diligence, audits for the acquisitions, purchase price allocation, legal fees paid in accordance with the Credit Agreement, dated as of November 17, 2020 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among the Operating Subsidiaries, Post Road Special Opportunity Fund II LLP (“PRSOF”), as a lender, the other lenders party thereto and Post Road Administrative LLC (“PR Administrative” and, together with its affiliate PRSOF, “Post Road”), as administrative agent for the lenders, to counsel for Post Road, and investor relations.
Bad debt. Bad debt increased by $28,000, or 97%, from the three months ended October 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended October 31, 2023. The increase is attributed to the recognition of $57,000 in bad debt for accounts deemed uncollectible during the three months ended October 31, 2023. During the three months ended October 31, 2022, the Company recognized $29,000 in bad debt expense.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization decreased by $270,000, or 28%, from the three months ended October 31, 2022 as compared to the three months ended October 31, 2023. The decrease is primarily attributed to assets being fully amortized/depreciated, offset by the in amortization for Right-of-Use assets.
Operating loss. The Company reported an operating loss of $799,000 for the three months ended October 31, 2023 as compared to an operating loss of $400,000 for the three months ended October 31, 2022. The increase in operating loss of $399,000, or 100%, between periods is primarily due to net increases in SG&A (including stock-based compensation) of $48,000, an increase in legal and professional fees of $417,000, $,000 for bad debt, offset by decreases in cost of services (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) of $300,000, 270,000 for depreciation and amortization expense, and a decrease in gross margin of $176,000.
Loss on derivative instruments. The loss on derivative instruments decreased by $2,464,000, or 80.1%, from the three months ended October 31, 2022 to the three months ended October 31, 2023 was due to a slight increase in our common share price at October 31, 2023 as compared to July 31, 2023. We are required to re-measure all derivative instruments at the end of each reporting period and adjust those instruments to market. As a result of the re-measurement of all derivative instruments we recognized a gain or loss between periods.
Other income. Other income decreased by $446,000, or 100%, from the three months ended October 31, 2022 to the three months ended October 31, 2023 due primarily to the recognition of a gain on a settlement of conversion premium from a convertible note.
Interest expense. Interest expense increased by $976,000, or 47%, from the three months ended October 31, 2022 to the three months ended October 31, 2023, the Company recognized amortization of debt discount of $697,000 related to the adjustment to the present value of various convertible notes, debt, and warrants. Additionally, the Company recognized $1,984,000 of interest to Post Road for the accrual of PIK interest and amendment fees related to the forbearance agreements, and $360,000 added to various other promissory notes, all charged to interest expense as consideration for extension of the maturity dates.
Income tax expense. During the three months ended October 31, 2023, the Company recognized an income tax expense of $28,000. During the three months ended October 31, 2022 the Company recognized an income tax expense of $50,000.
Net loss including noncontrolling interest. Net loss including noncontrolling interest for the three months ended October 31, 2022 was $5,145,000 as compared to the net loss of $4,480,000 for the three months ended October 31, 2023. The improvement in net loss including noncontrolling interest between periods is primarily due to a decrease in total other expense of $1,064,000, offset by the increase in the operating loss of $399,000.
Net loss attributable to Digerati’s shareholders. Net loss for the three months ended October 31, 2023 was $4,085,000 as compared to a net loss for the three months ended October 31, 2022 of $4,984,000.
Deemed dividend on Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. Dividend accrued on convertible preferred stock for the three months ended October 31, 2023 and 2022 was $0 and $4,000, respectively.
Net loss attributable to Digerati’s common shareholders. Net loss for the three months ended October 31, 2023 was $4,085,000 compared to a net loss for the three months ended October 31, 2022 of $4,988,000.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash Position: We had a consolidated cash balance of approximately $946,000 as of October 31, 2023. Net cash provided by operating activities during the three months ended October 31, 2023 was approximately $282,000. The increase in cash provided by operating activities resulted primarily from the net loss incurred during the three months ended October 31, 2023 as a result of operating expenses, that included $12,000 in stock compensation and warrant expense, bad debt expense of $57,000, non-cash lease expense of $218,000, amortization of debt discount of $697,000, depreciation and amortization expense of $683,000, loss on derivative liability of $612,000, common stock issued for debt extension charged to interest expense of $42,000, offset by the change in operating assets and liabilities which resulted in a net increase of $2,441,000.
38
Cash used in investing activities during the three months ended October 31, 2023 was $96,000, which was used for the acquisition of equipment.
Cash used in financing activities during the three months ended October 31, 2023 was $164,000 which included principal payments on equipment financing and borrowings from convertible debt, net or original issuance costs and discounts.
Overall, our net operating, investing, and financing activities during the three months ended October 31, 2023 resulted in a net increase in cash and cash equivalents for $22,000.
Digerati’s consolidated financial statements for the three months ended October 31, 2023 have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. Since the Company’s inception in 1993, Digerati has incurred net losses and accumulated a deficit of approximately $125,769,000 and a working capital deficit of approximately $69,321,000 which raises substantial doubt about Digerati’s ability to continue as a going concern.
We are currently taking initiatives to reduce our overall cash deficiencies on a monthly basis. To strengthen our business, we intend to adopt best practices from our recent acquisitions and invest in a marketing and sales strategy to grow our monthly recurring revenue; we anticipate utilizing our value-added resellers and channel partners to tap into new sources of revenue streams; and we have also secured numerous agent agreements through our recent acquisitions that we anticipate will accelerate revenue growth. In addition, we will continue to focus on selling a greater number of comprehensive services to our existing customer base. Further, in an effort to increase our revenues, we will continue to evaluate the acquisition of various assets with emphasis in VoIP Services and Cloud Communication Services. As a result, during the process of evaluating such acquisitions we anticipate incurring significant legal and professional fees.
The Company anticipates issuing additional equity, entering into additional convertible notes and/or obtaining other indebtedness to secure the funding required to meet these cash needs. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional funds or raise them on acceptable terms. If the Company is unable to obtain financing on acceptable terms, the Company may not be able to meet its interest payments, capital expenditures and operational needs. As a result, the Company will be required to negotiate with its lender the terms of the current financing agreements, in addition to postponing the timing of deployment of its capital expenditures and extending the timing of the operational cash needs.
The Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and indemnification provisions. The Credit Agreement also contains affirmative and negative covenants with respect to the operation of the business and properties of the loan parties as well as financial performance.
Below are key financial covenant requirements, (measured quarterly) for the fiscal quarter ended October 31, 2023:
| ● | Maximum–Allowed - Senior Leverage Ratio of 3.34 to 1.00 |
| ● | Minimum–Allowed – EBITDA (on an annualized basis) of $4,710,385 |
| ● | Minimum–Allowed - Liquidity of $2,000,000 |
| ● | Maximum Allowed - Capital Expenditures of $94,798 (Quarterly) |
| ● | Minimum–Allowed – Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.50 to 1.00 |
| ● | Maximum Allowed - Churn of 3.00% at any time |
As of October 31, 2023, the Company was not in compliance with the financial covenants under the Credit Agreement. This noncompliance, together with certain other events of default that have occurred and are continuing under the Credit Agreement, resulted in our classifying the indebtedness under the Credit Agreement as a current liability.
39
The Operating Subsidiaries’ obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by first priority security interests in (a) the equity interests of the Operating Subsidiaries (other than Verve Cloud Nevada), pursuant to the Pledge Agreement, dated November 17, 2020 (the “Pledge Agreement”), made by Verve Cloud Nevada in favor of Post Road Administrative and (b) substantially all of the other assets of the Operating Subsidiaries, pursuant to the Guaranty and Collateral Agreement, dated November 17, 2020, subsequently amended on December 31, 2021, February 4, 2022, December 15, 2022, and February 3, 2023 (the “Guaranty and Collateral Agreement”), among the Operating Subsidiaries and Post Road Administrative.
During the period beginning on August 1, 2021, and ending on October 31, 2023, the Company and Post Road entered into several amendments and other modifications to the Credit Agreement. Specifically:
| ● | On December 15, 2022, Post Road agreed to forbear from exercising its remedies in connection with the Company’s failure to comply with the financial covenants in the Credit Agreement as of the last day of the fiscal quarter ended October 31, 2022, as well as certain other specified defaults, until December 23, 2022. |
| ● | On February 3, 2023, with an effective date of December 23, 2022, Digerati, the Operating Subsidiaries and Post Road entered into a Consent, Limited Waiver and Fourth Amendment to Credit Agreement and Amendment to Notes (the “Fourth Amendment”). Among other things, the Fourth Amendment (a) conditionally revised each of the six financial covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement (related to maximum leverage, minimum liquidity, minimum EBITDA, maximum capital expenditures, minimum interest coverage (a provision that replaced the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio provision), and maximum churn), (b) conditionally waived all then-existing events of default under the Credit Agreement and (c) modified the interest rates payable under the Credit Agreement. In addition, the Fourth Amendment provided that none of the revised financial covenants (other than minimum liquidity of $1,000,000, which was tested and met as of January 31, 2023) would be tested as of the last day of the fiscal quarter ended January 31, 2023 so long as no additional events of default occurred prior to such date. The conditional revisions to the financial covenants and the conditional waivers of existing events of default in the Fourth Amendment were contingent on the consummation of the Merger with MEOA by February 28, 2023 (the “Merger Outside Closing Date”). If the Merger was not consummated by the Merger Outside Closing Date, the terms of the financial covenants would revert to the terms in effect immediately prior to the Fourth Amendment and the existing events of default would continue unwaived. The Merger Outside Closing Date was, as described below, extended several times, but the termination of the Business Combination Agreement with MEOA has effectively nullified the revisions to the financial covenants and conditional waivers set forth in the Fourth Amendment. |
| ● | On March 13, 2023, Digerati, the Operating Subsidiaries, and Post Road entered into the Fifth Amendment to Credit Agreement, with an effective date of February 28, 2023, which specifically extended the Merger Outside Closing Date from February 28, 2023, to April 28, 2023. |
| ● | On April 3, 2023, Digerati, the Operating Subsidiaries, and Post Road entered into a Sixth Amendment to its Credit Agreement (the “Sixth Amendment”), which (a) deferred the cash interest otherwise due and payable on April 1, 2023, to May 1, 2023, and (b) increased the net principal amount of additional convertible notes the Company was permitted by the Credit Agreement to have outstanding from $3,000,000 to $3,500,000. |
| ● | On May 1, 2023, with an effective date of April 28, 2023, Digerati, the Operating Subsidiaries, and Post Road entered into a Seventh Amendment to Credit Agreement (the “Seventh Amendment”), pursuant to which the Merger Outside Closing Date was extended from April 28, 2023, to May 31, 2023, or such later date as agreed to in writing by Post Road in its sole discretion. |
| ● | On August 16, 2023, Digerati, the Operating Subsidiaries and Post Road entered into a letter agreement, pursuant to which Post Road agreed that all accrued interest that was originally due and payable in cash by the Operating Subsidiaries on April 3, 2023, May 1, 2023, June 1, 2023, July 3, 2023 and August 1, 2023 would, instead, be added to the outstanding principal balances of Term Loan A and Term Loan C, as applicable, under the Credit Agreement on the effective date of the letter agreement, and due on the maturity dates of such loans, along with all other principal and interest amounts thereunder. |
40
Additionally, on November 22, 2023 (with effect from November 2, 2023), Verve Cloud, Inc. (“Verve Cloud”) and Verve Cloud’s subsidiaries (Verve Cloud and its subsidiaries, collectively, the “Verve Cloud Nevada Parties”), Digerati and Post Road entered into a Second Forbearance Agreement, Amendment to Loan Documents and Limited Consent, which (a) extends the maturity date of our Term Loan C Note with Post Road from November 2, 2023, to December 31, 2023, (b) provides that Post Road and the other lenders under the Credit Agreement shall forbear through December 31, 2023 from exercising their rights and remedies under the loan documents and applicable law with respect to (i) certain existing events of default under the loan documents and (ii) certain events of default that are expected to arise before December 31, 2023, and (c) amends certain provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other loan documents to allow the company to incur up to an additional $2,000,000 of working capital financing. For additional information regarding the Second Forbearance Agreement, Amendment to Loan Documents and Limited Consent, see Note 12 - Subsequent Events to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
We have been successful in raising debt and equity capital in the past and as described in Notes 6, 7, and 8 to the financial statements. We have financing efforts in place to continue to raise cash through debt and equity offerings. Although we have successfully completed financings and reduced expenses in the past, we cannot assure you that our plans to address these matters in the future will be successful. The Company will continue to work with various funding sources to secure additional debt and equity financings. However, Digerati cannot offer any assurance that it will be successful in executing the aforementioned plans to continue as a going concern.
Management believes that available resources as of October 31, 2023, will not be sufficient to fund the Company’s operations, debt service and corporate expenses over the next 12 months. The Company’s ability to continue to meet its obligations and to achieve its business objectives is dependent upon, among other things, raising additional capital, issuing stock-based compensation to certain members of the executive management team in lieu of cash, and/or generating sufficient revenue in excess of costs. At such time as the Company requires additional funding, the Company will seek to secure such best-efforts funding from various possible sources, including equity or debt financing, sales of assets, or collaborative arrangements. If the Company raises additional capital through the issuance of equity securities or securities convertible into equity, stockholders will experience dilution, and such securities may have rights, preferences, or privileges senior to those of the holders of common stock or convertible senior notes. If the Company raises additional funds by issuing debt, the Company may be subject to limitations on its operations, through debt covenants or other restrictions. If the Company obtains additional funds through arrangements with collaborators or strategic partners, the Company may be required to relinquish its rights to certain technologies. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional funds or raise them on acceptable terms. If the Company is unable to obtain financing on acceptable terms, it may be unable to execute its business plan, the Company could be required to curtail its operations, and the Company may not be able to pay off its obligations, if and when they come due.
Our current cash expenses are expected to be approximately $1,300,000 per month, including wages, rent, utilities, corporate expenses, and legal professional fees associated with potential acquisitions. As described elsewhere herein, we are not generating sufficient cash from operations to pay for our corporate and ongoing operating expenses, or to pay our current liabilities. As of October 31, 2023, our total liabilities were approximately $73,760,000, which included $4,737,561 in derivative liabilities. We will continue to use our available cash on hand to cover our deficiencies in operating expenses. Our cash requirements to meet our interest payments to Post Road, capital expenditure needs, and operational cash flow needs over the next 18 months are estimated to be approximately $3,500,000.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks.
Not Applicable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
In connection with the preparation of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended October 31, 2023, our Principal Executive Officer (“PEO”) and Principal Financial Officer (“PFO”) evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our PEO and PFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were not effective such that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A controls system cannot provide absolute assurance, however, that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.
(b) Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting, as there has been no implementation to date of processes and/or procedures to remedy internal control weaknesses and deficiencies.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
From time to time, the Company may become a defendant in litigation arising out of the ordinary course of business. As of October 31, 2023, the Company is not party to any material pending legal proceedings.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Not Applicable
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
There were no unregistered sales of the Company’s equity securities during the quarter ended October 31, 2023 that were not previously reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K except as follows. The sales and issuances of the securities described below were made pursuant to the exemptions from registration contained into Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Regulation D under the Securities Act. Each purchaser represented that such purchaser’s intention to acquire the shares for investment only and not with a view toward distribution. We requested our stock transfer agent to affix appropriate legends to the stock certificate issued to each purchaser and the transfer agent affixed the appropriate legends. Each purchaser was given adequate access to sufficient information about us to make an informed investment decision. Except as described in this prospectus, none of the securities were sold through an underwriter and accordingly, there were no underwriting discounts or commissions involved.
During the three months ended October 31, 2023, the Company issued 990,000 shares of common stock as consideration for the extension of maturity dates for the convertible promissory notes. The Company recognized the fair market value of the common shares of approximately $42,000 which was recognized as interest at the time of each extension.
On November 9, 2023, one of our vendors converted $120,000 of amounts owed to them by the Company into 1,255,230 shares of common stock.

Description of Business
Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, references in this subsection to “we,” “us,” “our,” “the Company,” and other similar terms refer to Digerati and its subsidiaries.
Digerati Technologies, Inc., a Nevada corporation (including our subsidiaries, “we,” “us,” “Company” or “Digerati”), through its operating subsidiaries, (i) Verve Cloud, Inc. (formerly known as T3 communications, Inc.), a Nevada corporation (“Verve Cloud Nevada”), (ii) Verve Cloud, Inc. (formerly known as Shift8 Networks, Inc.), a Texas corporation (“Verve Cloud Texas”), (iii) T3 Communications, Inc., a Florida corporation (“T3 Communications”), (iv) Nexogy, Inc., a Florida corporation (“Nexogy”) and (v) NextLevel Internet, Inc., a California corporation (“Next Level” and, together with Verve Cloud Nevada, Verve Cloud Texas, T3 Communications and Nexogy, the “Operating Subsidiaries”), which, as of June 1, 2023, operate as a single business unit under the Verve Cloud name and have locations in Texas, Florida and California, provides cloud services specializing in Unified Communications as a Service (“UCaaS”) and broadband connectivity solutions for the business market. Our product line includes a portfolio of Internet-based telephony products and services delivered through our cloud application platform and session-based communication network and network services including Internet broadband, fiber, mobile broadband, and cloud Wide Area Network (“WAN”) or Software-defined Wide Area Network (“SD WAN”) solutions.
Digerati provides enterprise-class, carrier-grade services to the small-to-medium-sized business (“SMB”) at cost-effective monthly rates. Digerati’s UCaaS or cloud communication services include fully hosted Internet Protocol (“IP”)/private branch exchange (“PBX”), video conferencing, mobile applications, Voice over Internet Protocol (“VoIP”) transport, Session Initiation Protocol (“SIP”) trunking, and customized VoIP services all delivered Only in the Cloud™.
Basis of presentation and consolidation
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of Digerati Technologies, Inc. have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, these interim financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the consolidated financial statements, which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended July 31, 2023, contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on November 24, 2023, have been omitted.
Reclassification
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations or net assets of the Company.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period. Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the respective period presented in the Company’s accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. Fully-diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similarly to basic income (loss) per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of dilutive Common Stock equivalents using the treasury stock method for options and warrants and the if-converted method for convertible debt.
The Company excluded the following securities from the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per share as the effect would have been antidilutive.
Treasury Shares
As a result of entering into various convertible debt instruments which contained a variable conversion feature with no floor, warrants with fixed exercise price, and convertible notes with fixed conversion price or with a conversion price floor, we reserved 110,000,000 treasury shares for consideration for future conversions and exercise of warrants, for convertible notes with fixed conversion price, notes with variable conversion feature with a floor and warrants with a conversion price floor. The Company will evaluate the reserved treasury shares on a quarterly basis, and if necessary, reserve additional treasury shares. As of October 31, 2023, we believe that the treasury shares reserved are sufficient for any future conversions of these instruments. As a result, these debt instruments and warrants are excluded from derivative consideration.
Customers and Suppliers
We rely on various suppliers to provide services in connection with our VOIP and UCaaS offerings. Our customers include businesses in various industries including Healthcare, Banking, Financial Services, Legal, Real Estate, and Construction. We are not dependent upon any single supplier or customer.
During the three months ended October 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company did not derive revenues of 10% or more from any single customer.
As of October 31, 2023, the Company had one vendor that comprised 12.8% of outstanding accounts receivable. At July 31, 2023, the Company did not have outstanding accounts receivable of 10% or more from any single customer.
Sources of revenue:
The Company recognizes cloud-based hosted services revenue, mainly from subscription services for its cloud telephony applications that includes hosted IP/PBX services, SIP trunking, call center applications, auto attendant, voice, and web conferencing, call recording, messaging, voicemail to email conversion, integrated mobility applications that are device and location agnostic, and other customized applications. Other services include enterprise-class data and connectivity solutions through multiple broadband technologies including cloud WAN or SD-WAN, fiber, and Ethernet over copper. We also offer remote network monitoring, data backup and disaster recovery services. The Company applies a five-step approach in determining the amount and timing of revenue to be recognized: (i) identifying the contract with a customer, (ii) identifying the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determining the transaction price, (iv) allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and (v) recognizing revenue when the performance obligation is satisfied. Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is recognized at the time control of the products transfers to the customer.
Service Revenue
Service revenue from subscriptions to the Company’s cloud-based technology platform is recognized over time on a ratable basis over the contractual subscription term beginning on the date that the platform is made available to the customer. Payments received in advance of subscription services being rendered are recorded as deferred revenue. Usage fees, either bundled or not bundled, are recognized when the Company has a right to invoice. Professional services for configuration, system integration, optimization, customer training and/or education are primarily billed on a fixed-fee basis and are performed by the Company directly. Alternatively, customers may choose to perform these services themselves or engage their own third-party service providers. Professional services revenue is recognized over time, generally as services are activated for the customer.
Product Revenue
The Company recognizes product revenue for telephony equipment at a point-in-time, when transfer of control has occurred, which is generally upon delivery. Sales returns are recorded as a reduction to revenue estimated based on historical data.
Disaggregation of Cloud-based hosted revenues.
Summary of disaggregated revenue is as follows (in thousands):
Deferred Income
Deferred income represents billings or payment received in advance of revenue recognition and is recognized upon transfer of control. Balances consist primarily of annual plan subscription services, for services not yet provided as of the balance sheet date. Deferred revenues that will be recognized during the succeeding 12-month period are recorded as current deferred revenues in the consolidated balance sheets, with the remainder recorded as other noncurrent liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. Deferred income as of October 31, 2023 and July 31, 2023 was $277,940 and $281,294, respectively.
Customer deposits
The Company in some instances requires customers to make deposits for the last month of services, equipment, installation charges and training. As equipment is installed and training takes place, the deposits are then applied to revenue. The deposit for the last month of services is applied to any outstanding balances if services are cancelled. If the customer’s account is paid in full, the Company will refund the full deposit in the month following service termination. As of October 31, 2023 and July 31, 2023, Digerati’s customer deposits balance was $822,021 and $842,956, respectively. The customer deposit balance is included as part of deferred income on the consolidated balance sheets.
Costs to Obtain a Customer Contract
Direct incremental costs of obtaining a contract consisting of sales commissions are deferred and amortized over the estimated life of the customer, which currently averages 36 months. The Company calculates the estimated life of the customer on an annual basis. The Company classifies deferred commissions as prepaid expenses or other noncurrent assets based on the timing of when it expects to recognize the expense. As of October 31, 2023, the Company has $876,609 in deferred commissions/contract costs, of which the current portion of $392,155 is included in prepaid and other current assets and the long-term portion of $484,454 in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. Sales commissions expenses for the three months ended October 31, 2023 and 2022 were $837,107 and $676,608, respectively. The costs to obtain customer contract balances are included as part of prepaid expenses and other assets on the consolidated balance sheets.
Direct Costs - Cloud software and service
We incur bandwidth and colocation charges in connection with our UCaaS or cloud communication services. The bandwidth charges are incurred as part of the connectivity between our customers to allow them access to our various services. We also incur costs from underlying providers for fiber, internet broadband, and telecommunication circuits in connection with our data and connectivity solutions.
Derivative financial instruments.
Digerati does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks. However, Digerati evaluates its convertible instruments and free-standing instruments such as warrants for derivative liability accounting.
For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date. Any changes in fair value are recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense for each reporting period. For derivative notes payable conversion options and warrants Digerati uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to value the derivative instruments.
The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument is probable within the next 12 months from the balance sheet date.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments.
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. A fair value hierarchy is used which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The fair value hierarchy based on the three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value are as follows:
For certain of our financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments. The carrying value of our long-term debt approximates its fair value based on the quoted market prices for the same or similar issues or the current rates offered to us for debt of the same remaining maturities.
Our derivative liabilities as of October 31, 2023 and July 31, 2023 were $4,737,561 and $4,125,429, respectively.
The following table provides the fair value of the derivative financial instruments measured at fair value using significant unobservable inputs:
The fair market value of all derivatives during the year ended July 31, 2023 was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model which used the following assumptions:
The fair market value of all derivatives during the three months ended October 31, 2023 was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model which used the following assumptions:
The following table provides a summary of the changes in fair value of the derivative financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs:
Noncontrolling interest
The Company follows Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 810, Consolidation, which governs the accounting for and reporting of non-controlling interests (“NCIs”) in partially owned consolidated subsidiaries and the loss of control of subsidiaries. Certain provisions of this standard indicate, among other things, that NCIs be treated as a separate component of equity, not as a liability, that increases and decreases in the parent’s ownership interest that leave control intact be treated as equity transactions rather than as step acquisitions or dilution gains or losses, and that losses of a partially owned consolidated subsidiary be allocated to the NCI even when such allocation might result in a deficit balance. The net income (loss) attributed to the NCI is separately designated in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements.
Recent accounting pronouncements, other than below, issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the AICPA and the SEC did not, or are not, believed by management to have a material effect on the Company’s present or future financial statements.
In August 2020, the FASB issued “ASU 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40)” which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments. The guidance removes certain accounting models which separate the embedded conversion features from the host contract for convertible instruments. Either a modified retrospective method of transition or a fully retrospective method of transition is permissible for the adoption of this standard. Update No. 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this ASU on its financial statements.
On August 1, 2023, the Company adopted “ASU 2016-13 Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASC 326).” This standard replaced the incurred loss methodology with an expected loss methodology that is referred to as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) methodology. CECL requires an estimate of credit losses for the remaining estimated life of the financial asset using historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts and generally applies to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including recognition of credit losses on financing receivables and other financial assets in scope. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements. |

| GOING CONCERN | NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN
Financial Condition
The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of business. Since the Company’s inception in 1993, the Company has incurred net losses and accumulated a deficit of approximately $125,769,000 and a working capital deficit of approximately $69,321,000 which raises substantial doubt about Digerati’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Management Plans to Continue as a Going Concern
Management believes that available resources as of October 31, 2023, will not be sufficient to fund the Company’s operations and corporate expenses over the next 12 months. The Company’s ability to continue to meet its obligations and to achieve its business objectives is dependent upon, among other things, raising additional capital, issuing stock-based compensation to certain members of the executive management team in lieu of cash, or generating sufficient revenue in excess of costs. At such time as the Company requires additional funding, the Company will seek to secure such best-efforts funding from various possible sources, including equity or debt financing, sales of assets, or collaborative arrangements. If the Company raises additional capital through the issuance of equity securities or securities convertible into equity, stockholders will experience dilution, and such securities may have rights, preferences, or privileges senior to those of the holders of common stock or convertible senior notes. If the Company raises additional funds by issuing debt, the Company may be subject to limitations on its operations, through debt covenants or other restrictions. If the Company obtains additional funds through arrangements with collaborators or strategic partners, the Company may be required to relinquish its rights to certain technologies. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional funds or raise them on acceptable terms. If the Company is unable to obtain financing on acceptable terms, it may be unable to execute its business plan, the Company could be required to curtail its operations, and the Company may not be able to pay off its obligations, if and when they come due.
We are currently taking initiatives to reduce our overall cash deficiencies on a monthly basis. During Fiscal Year 2024, certain members of our executive management team have continued to take a significant portion of their compensation in common stock and deferred compensation to reduce the depletion of our available cash. To strengthen our business, we intend to adopt best practices from our recent acquisitions and invest in a marketing and sales strategy to grow our monthly recurring revenue; we anticipate utilizing our value-added resellers and channel partners to tap into new sources of revenue streams; and we have also secured numerous agent agreements through our recent acquisitions that we anticipate will accelerate revenue growth. In addition, we will continue to focus on selling a greater number of comprehensive services to our existing customer base. Further, in an effort to increase our revenues, we will continue to evaluate the acquisition of various assets with emphasis in VoIP Services and Cloud Communication Services. As a result, during the due diligence process we anticipate incurring significant legal and professional fees.
We have been successful in raising debt and equity capital in the past and as described in Notes 6, 7, and 8. We have financing efforts in place to continue to raise cash through debt and equity offerings. Although we have successfully completed financings and reduced expenses in the past, we cannot assure you that our plans to address these matters in the future will be successful.
We require cash to meet our interest payments to Post Road (as defined below), capital expenditure needs, and operational cash flow needs. The Company anticipates issuing additional equity or entering into additional Convertible Notes to secure the funding required to meet these cash needs. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional funds or raise them on acceptable terms. If the Company is unable to obtain financing on acceptable terms, the Company may not be able to meet its interest payments, capital expenditures, and operational needs. As a result, the Company will be required to negotiate with its lender the terms of the current financing agreements, in addition to postponing the timing of deployment of its capital expenditures and extending the timing of the operational cash needs.
The Operating Subsidiaries are parties to the Credit Agreement, dated as of November 17, 2020 (as amended from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among the Operating Subsidiaries, Post Road Special Opportunity Fund II LLP (“PRSOF”), as a lender, the other lenders party thereto and Post Road Administrative LLC (“PR Administrative” and, together with its affiliate PRSOF, “Post Road”), as administrative agent for the lenders. The Company is also a party to certain sections of the Credit Agreement. Next Level Internet, Inc. became an Operating Subsidiary and a party to the Credit Agreement in February 2022.
The Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and indemnification provisions. The Credit Agreement also contains affirmative and negative covenants with respect to the operation of the business and properties of the loan parties as well as financial performance.
Below are key financial covenant requirements, (measured quarterly) for the fiscal quarter ended October 31, 2023:
As of October 31, 2023, the Company was not in compliance with the financial covenants under the Credit Agreement. This noncompliance, together with certain other events of default that have occurred and are continuing under the Credit Agreement, resulted in our classifying the indebtedness under the Credit Agreement as a current liability. While Digerati, the parent company of Verve Cloud Nevada, is not subject to these financial covenants, they have had and will continue to have a material impact on Verve Cloud Nevada’s expenditures and ability to raise funds.
The Operating Subsidiaries’ obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by first priority security interests in (a) the equity interests of the Operating Subsidiaries (other than Verve Cloud Nevada), pursuant to the Pledge Agreement, dated November 17, 2020 (the “Pledge Agreement”), made by Verve Cloud Nevada in favor of Post Road Administrative and (b) substantially all of the other assets of the Operating Subsidiaries, pursuant to the Guaranty and Collateral Agreement, dated November 17, 2020, subsequently amended on December 31, 2021, February 4, 2022, December 15, 2022, and February 3, 2023 (the “Guaranty and Collateral Agreement”), among the Operating Subsidiaries and Post Road Administrative.
During the period beginning on November 1, 2021, and ending on October 31, 2023, the Company and Post Road entered into several amendments and other modifications to the Credit Agreement. Specifically:
Additionally, on November 22, 2023 (with effect from November 2, 2023), the Operating Subsidiaries, Digerati and Post Road entered into a Second Forbearance Agreement, Amendment to Loan Documents and Limited Consent, which (a) extends the maturity date of our Term Loan C Note with Post Road from November 2, 2023, to December 31, 2023, (b) provides that Post Road and the other lenders under the Credit Agreement shall forbear through December 31, 2023 from exercising their rights and remedies under the loan documents and applicable law with respect to (i) certain existing events of default under the loan documents and (ii) certain events of default that are expected to arise before December 31, 2023, and (c) amends certain provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other loan documents to allow the company to incur up to an additional $2,000,000 of working capital financing. For additional information regarding the Second Forbearance Agreement, Amendment to Loan Documents and Limited Consent, see Note 12 - Subsequent Events to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Company will continue to work with various funding sources to secure additional debt and equity financings. However, Digerati cannot offer any assurance that it will be successful in executing the aforementioned plans to continue as a going concern. |

| STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION | NOTE 4 – STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
In November 2015, the Company adopted the Digerati Technologies, Inc. 2015 Equity Compensation Plan (the “Plan”). On May 25, 2023, the Company amended The Plan which now authorizes the grant of up to 15 million (previously 7.5 million) stock options, restricted common shares, non-restricted common shares and other awards to employees, directors, and certain other persons. The Plan is intended to permit the Company to retain and attract qualified individuals who will contribute to the overall success of the Company. The Company’s Board of Directors determines the terms of any grants under the Plan. Exercise prices of all stock options and other awards vary based on the market price of the shares of common stock as of the date of grant. The stock options, restricted common stock, non-restricted common stock, and other awards vest based on the terms of the individual grant.
During the three months ended October 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company did not issue any new stock options.
The Company recognized approximately $11,980 and $22,996 in stock-based compensation expense for stock options to employees for the three months ended October 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Unamortized compensation stock option cost totaled $4,039 and $74,976 as of October 31, 2023 and October 31, 2022, respectively.
