2. Going Concern and Management’s Liquidity Plans

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP, assuming we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Accordingly, the condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern.

We have incurred significant net losses since our inception. For the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company incurred a net loss of $153,700. At March 31, 2017, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $82,603,500 and a working capital deficit of $2,656,000. Due to our inability to date to generate meaningful revenue from our hopTo Work business and our continued estimation that revenue from this product is unlikely in any reasonable time frame, our cash resources will not be sufficient to fund our business for the next 12 months. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to continue to generate revenue from our legacy GO-Global business and to raise additional capital through the issuance of new equity, debt financing, or from the sale of certain assets to meet short and long-term operating requirements.

If the Company raises additional funds through the issuance of equity or convertible debt securities, the percentage ownership of our current shareholders could be reduced, and such securities might have rights, preferences or privileges senior to the Company’s common stock. Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, the Company may not be able to take advantage of prospective business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict our operations. We are continuing to pursue external financing alternatives to improve our working capital position. If the Company is unable to obtain the necessary capital, the Company may have to cease operations.

These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

In order to maintain operations, we previously implemented significant expense reductions, including a limited number of employee layoffs, and continue to implement further costs and employment reductions. During the three month period ended September 30, 2016, our CEO and CFO voluntarily agreed with our board of directors to defer 50% of their salary beginning September 1, 2016 until such time as the Company can reasonably pay such compensation upon approval by the board of directors.
