Note 1. Organization and Significant Accounting Policies

ShipTime Canada Inc. (“ShipTime”) has developed a SaaS-based application, which focuses on the small and medium business segments. This offering allows members to quote, process, generate labels, dispatch and track courier and LTL shipments all from a single interface. The application provides customers with a choice of today’s leading couriers and freight carriers all with discounted pricing allowing members to save on every shipment. ShipTime can also be integrated into on-line shopping carts to facilitate sales via e-commerce. We actively sell directly to small and medium businesses and through long standing partnerships with selected associations throughout Canada. 

PAID, Inc. (“PAID”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) has developed AuctionInc, which is a suite of online shipping and tax management tools assisting businesses with e-commerce storefronts, shipping solutions, tax calculation, inventory management, and auction processing. The product has tools to assist with other aspects of the fulfillment process, but the main purpose of the product is to provide accurate shipping and tax calculations and packaging algorithms that provide customers with the best possible shipping and tax solutions.

BeerRun Software is a brewery management and Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau tax reporting software. Small craft brewers can utilize the product to manage brewery schedules, inventory, packaging, sales and purchasing. Tax reporting can be processed with a single click and is fully customizable by state or providence. The software is designed to integrate with QuickBooks accounting platforms by using our powerful sync engine. We currently offer two versions of the software BeerRun and BeerRun Light which excludes some of the enhanced features of BeerRun without disrupting the core functionality of the software.

PaidPayments provides commerce solutions to small - and medium-sized businesses by enabling them to sell their goods and services, accept payment, and create repeat sales though an online payment processing solution. The Company has operated as a Payment Facilitator since 2019, which enables our merchants to get the benefit of instant boarding and discounted rates. Our platform provides all aspects required for payment processing, including merchant boarding, underwriting, fraud monitoring, settlement, funding to the sub-merchant, and monthly reporting and statements. The Company controls all of these necessary aspects in the payment process and is then able to supply a one-step boarding process for our partners and value-added resellers. This capability also provides cost advantages, rapid response to market needs, simplified processes for boarding business and a seamless interface for our merchant customers.

General Presentation and Basis of Consolidated Financial Statements

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 that was filed on March 31, 2022.

In the opinion of management, the Company has prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements on the same basis as its audited consolidated financial statements, and these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented. The operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year 2022.

Liquidity and Management’s Plans

At June 30, 2022, the Company reported cash and cash equivalents of $3,212,244 and net working capital of $724,827 and reported cash flows from operations of $427,973 for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The Company has reported an operating income of $19,546 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and has an accumulated deficit of $70,303,004 at June 30, 2022.

Management believes that the Company has adequate cash resources to fund operations during the next 12 months after the filing of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. In addition, management continues to explore opportunities and has organized additional resources to monetize its patents. However, there can be no assurance that anticipated growth in new business will occur, and that the Company will be successful in launching new products and services. Management continues to seek alternative sources of capital to support the growth of future operations.

Although there can be no assurances, the Company believes that the above management plans will be sufficient to meet the Company's working capital requirements through the end of August 2023 and will have a positive impact on the Company for the foreseeable future.

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PAID, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, PAID Run, LLC and ShipTime Canada, Inc. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Foreign Currency

The currency of ShipTime, the Company’s international subsidiary, is in Canadian dollars. Foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates in effect at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Results of operations and cash flows are translated using the average exchange rates throughout the period. The effect of exchange rate fluctuations on translation of assets and liabilities is included as a separate component of shareholders’ equity in accumulated other comprehensive income.

Geographic Concentrations

The Company conducts business in the U.S. and Canada. For customers headquartered in their respective countries, for the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company derived approximately 100% of its revenues from Canada and 0% from the U.S. compared to 99% from Canada and 1% from the U.S for the same period in 2021. The Company derived approximately 99% of its revenues from Canada and 1% from the U.S. during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

At June 30, 2022, the Company maintained 100% of its property and equipment net of accumulated depreciation in Canada.

Right of Use Assets

A right-of-use asset represents a lessee’s right to use a leased asset for the term of the lease. Our right-of-use assets generally consist of an operating lease for a building.

Right-of-use assets are measured initially at the present value of the lease payments, plus any lease payments made before a lease began and any initial direct costs, such as commissions paid to obtain a lease.

Right-of-use assets are subsequently measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, adjusted for incentives, prepaid or accrued rent, and any initial direct costs not yet expensed.

Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews the carrying values of its long-lived assets for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the expected future cash flow from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized and measured using the fair value of the related asset. No impairment charges were recognized during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. There can be no assurance, however, that market conditions will not change or demand for the Company’s services will continue, which could result in impairment of long-lived assets in the future.

Revenue Recognition

The Company generates revenue principally from fees for coordinating shipping services, sales of shipping calculator subscriptions, brewery management software subscriptions, merchant processing services and client services.

Nature of Goods and Services

For label generation service revenues, the Company recognizes revenue when a customer has successfully prepared a shipping label and scheduled a pickup. Customers with pickups after the end of the reporting period are recorded as contract liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The service is offered to consumers via an online registration and allows users to create a shipping label using a credit card on their account (all customers must have a valid credit card on file to process shipments on the ShipTime platform).

For shipping calculator revenues and brewery management software revenues, the Company recognizes subscription revenue on a monthly basis. Shipping calculator customers’ renewal dates are based on their date of installation and registration of the shipping calculator line of products. The timing of the revenue recognition and cash collection may vary within a given quarter and the deposits for future services are recorded as contract liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Brewery management software subscribers are billed monthly at the first of the month. All payments are made via credit card for the following month.

Merchant processing revenue consists of fees a seller pays us to process their payment transactions and is recognized upon authorization of a transaction. Revenue is recognized net of estimated refunds, which are reversals of transactions initiated by sellers. We act as the merchant of record for our sellers, which puts us in their shoes with respect to card networks and puts the risk for refunds and chargebacks on us. The gross transaction fees collected from sellers is recognized as revenue as we are the primary obligor to the seller and are responsible for processing the payment, have latitude in establishing pricing with respect to the sellers and other terms of service, have sole discretion in selecting the third party to perform the settlement, and assume the credit risk for the transaction processed.

Revenue Disaggregation

The Company operates in five reportable segments (see below).

Performance Obligations

At contract inception, an assessment of the goods and services promised in the contracts with customers is performed and a performance obligation is identified for each distinct promise to transfer to the customer a good or service (or bundle of goods or services). To identify the performance obligations, the Company considers all of the goods or services promised in the contract regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or are implied by customary business practices. Revenue is recognized when the performance obligation has been met, which is when the customer has successfully prepared a shipping label and scheduled a pickup for shipping coordination and label generation services. The Company considers control to have transferred at that time because the Company has a present right to payment at that time, the Company has provided the shipping label, and the customer is able to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from the shipping label.

For arrangements under which the Company provides a subscription for shipping calculator services and brewery management software, the Company satisfies its performance obligations over the life of the subscription, typically twelve months or less.

Customers of PaidPayments receive a merchant identification number which allows them to process credit card transactions. Once the transaction is approved, the funds are disbursed in an overnight feed and the Company has met its performance obligation.

The Company has no shipping and handling activities related to contracts with customers.

Revenues are recognized net of any taxes collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to government authorities.

Significant Payment Terms

Pursuant to the Company’s contracts with its customers, amounts are collected up front primarily through credit/debit card transactions. The Company has offered to its customers consolidated payments which are billed weekly and are paid with a credit card on file. Accordingly, the Company determined that its contracts with customers do not include extended payment terms or a significant financing component.

Variable Consideration

In some cases, the nature of the Company’s contracts may give rise to variable consideration, including rebates and cancellations or other similar items that generally decrease the transaction price.

Variable consideration is estimated at the most likely amount that is expected to be earned. Estimated amounts are included in the transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. Estimates of variable consideration and determination of whether to include estimated amounts in the transaction price are based largely on an assessment of the anticipated performance and all information (historical, current and forecasted) that is reasonably available.

Revenues are recorded net of variable consideration, such as rebates, refunds, and cancellations.

Warranties

The Company’s products and services are provided on an “as is” basis and no warranties are included in the contracts with customers. Also, the Company does not offer separately priced extended warranty or product maintenance contracts.

Contract Assets

Typically, the Company has already collected revenue from the customer at the time it has satisfied its performance obligation. Accordingly, the Company has only a small balance of accounts receivable, totaling $292,854 and $215,109 as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The Company has no customer that makes up 10% of the accounts receivable balance at June 30, 2022. Generally, the Company does not have material amounts of contract assets since revenue is recognized as control of goods is transferred or as services are performed.

Contract Liabilities (Deferred Revenue)

Contract liabilities are recorded when cash payments are received in advance of the Company’s performance (including rebates). Contract liabilities were $12,715 and $11,154 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized revenues of $11,154, related to contract liabilities outstanding at the beginning of the year.

Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share represent income (loss) available to common shareholders divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued, as well as any adjustment to income (loss) that would result from the assumed issuance. The potential common shares that may be issued by the Company relate to outstanding stock options and have been excluded from the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2021 because they would reduce the reported loss per share and therefore have an anti-dilutive effect.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 and the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, there were approximately 0 and 36,000 and 0 and 37,000, respectively, of potentially dilutive shares excluded from the diluted loss per share calculation, as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic earnings (loss) per common share and diluted earnings (loss) per common share computation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.
