WIDEPOINT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

1. Organization and Nature of Operations

 

Organization

 

WidePoint Corporation (“WidePoint” or the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on May 30, 1997 and conducts operations through its wholly-owned operating subsidiaries throughout the continental United States, Ireland, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. The Company’s principal executive and administrative headquarters is located in Fairfax, Virginia.

 

Nature of Operations

 

The Company is a leading provider of Technology Management as a Service (TMaaS). The Company’s TMaaS platform and service solutions enable its customers to efficiently secure, manage and analyze the entire lifecycle of their mobile communications assets through its federally compliant platform Intelligent Technology Management System (ITMS™). The Company’s ITMS platform is SSAE 18 compliant and was granted an Authority to Operate by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Additionally, the Company was granted an Authority to Operate by the General Services Administration with regard to its identity credentialing component of its TMaaS platform. The Company’s TMaaS platform is internally hosted and accessible on-demand through a secure customer portal that is specially configured for each customer. The Company can deliver these solutions in a number of configurations ranging from utilizing the platform as a service to a full-service solution that includes full lifecycle support for all end users and the organization.

 

A significant portion of the Company’s expenses, such as personnel and facilities costs, are fixed in the short term and may not be easily modified to manage through changes in the Company’s market place that may create pressure on pricing and/or costs to deliver its services.

 

The Company has periodic capital expense requirements to maintain and upgrade its internal technology infrastructure tied to its hosted solutions and other such costs may be significant when incurred in any given quarter.

 

2. Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2024 and for each of the three month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, included herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Pursuant to such regulations, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. It is the opinion of management that all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of financial results are reflected in the financial statements for the interim periods presented. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. The results of operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries and acquired entities since their respective dates of acquisition. All significant inter-company amounts were eliminated in consolidation.

Table of Contents

 

Foreign Currency

 

Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon exchange rates prevailing at the end of each reporting period. The resulting translation adjustments, along with any related tax effects, are included in accumulated other comprehensive income, a component of stockholders’ equity. Translation adjustments are reclassified to earnings upon the sale or substantial liquidation of investments in foreign operations. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average month-end exchange rates during the year. Gains and losses related to transactions in a currency other than the functional currency, including operations outside the U.S. where the functional currency is the U.S. dollar, are reported net in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations, depending on the nature of the activity.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The more significant areas requiring use of estimates and judgment relate to revenue recognition, allowance for credit losses, ability to realize intangible assets and goodwill, ability to realize deferred income tax assets, fair value of certain financial instruments and the evaluation of contingencies and litigation. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates. There were no significant changes in accounting estimates used by management during the quarter.

 

Segment Reporting

 

The Company’s TMaaS offerings are substantially managed service driven solutions that use our proprietary technology platform to deliver our services and reported on that basis to its Chief Operating Decision Maker who evaluates its business as a single segment. See Note 13 for detailed information regarding the composition of revenues.

 

Significant Accounting Policies

 

There were no significant changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies during the first three months of 2024 from those disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the SEC on March 26, 2024.

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

 

On November 27, 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, to improve the disclosures about a public entity's reportable segments and expenses. The standard requires disclosure of the chief operating decision maker's (the "CODM") title and position as well as multiple measures of segment profit and loss reviewed by the CODM. Companies with multiple reportable segments as well as companies with a single reportable segment are required to adopt the standard and it should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and requires retrospective adoption. Early adoption is permitted. As Company operates as a single reportable segment, the Company is currently evaluating the impacts this standard will have on its existing segment disclosures.

3. Accounts Receivable and Significant Concentrations

 

A significant portion of the Company’s receivables are billed under firm fixed price contracts with agencies of the U.S. federal government and similar pricing structures with several corporations. Accounts receivable consist of the following by customer type in the table below as of the periods presented:

(1) Government contracts are generally firm fixed price not to exceed arrangements with a term of five (5) years, which consists of a base year and four (4) annual option year renewals. Government receivables are billed under a single consolidated monthly invoice and are billed approximately thirty (30) to sixty (60) days in arrears from the date of service and payment is generally due within thirty (30) days of the invoice date. Government accounts receivable payments could be delayed due to administrative processing delays by the government agency, continuing budget resolutions or a government shutdown that may delay availability of contract funding, and/or administrative only invoice correction requests by contracting officers that may delay payment processing by our government customers.

 

(2) Commercial contracts are generally fixed price arrangements with contract terms ranging from two (2) to three (3) years. Commercial accounts receivables are billed based on the underlying contract terms and conditions which generally have repayment terms that range from thirty (30) to ninety (90) days. Commercial receivables are stated at amounts due from customers net of an allowance for credit losses if deemed necessary.

 

(3) For the three month period ended March 31, 2024, the Company did not recognize any material provisions of recoveries of existing provision for credit losses. The Company has not historically maintained an allowance for credit losses for its government customers as it has not experienced material or recurring credit losses and the nature and size of the contracts has not necessitated the Company’s establishment of such an allowance for credit losses.

Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash on deposit with financial institutions, the balances of which frequently exceed federally insured limits. If the financial institution with whom we do business were to be placed into receivership, we may be unable to access to the cash we have on deposit with such institutions. If we are unable to access our cash and cash equivalents as needed, our financial position and ability to operate our business could be adversely affected. At March 31, 2024, the Company had deposits in excess of FDIC limits of approximately $3.8 million. The Company also maintains deposits with a financial institution in Ireland that are insured by the Central Bank of Ireland up to a maximum of €100,000 per financial institution. At March 31, 2024, the Company had foreign bank deposits in excess of insured limits of approximately €328,900.

 

4. Unbilled Accounts Receivable

 

Unbilled accounts receivable represent revenues earned but not invoiced to the customer at the balance sheet date due to either timing of invoice processing or delays due to fixed contractual billing schedules. A significant portion of our unbilled accounts receivable consist of carrier services and hardware and software products delivered but not invoiced at the end of the reporting period.

8. Credit Agreements

 

From June 15, 2017 to June 2023, the Company had a Loan and Security Agreement with Atlantic Union Bank that matured in June 2023 and was not renewed.

 

On April 28, 2023, the Company entered into an Accounts Receivable Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Republic Capital Access, LLC (the “Buyer”) for the non-recourse sale of eligible accounts receivable relating to U.S. Government prime contracts or subcontracts of the Company (collectively, the “Purchased Receivables”) to replace the Company’s matured Loan and Security Agreement with Atlantic Union Bank. Upon purchase, Buyer becomes the absolute owner of any such Purchased Receivables, which are payable directly to the Buyer. The total amount of Purchased Receivables is subject to a maximum limit of $4 million outstanding Purchased Receivables at any time, with an available increase to $14 million, subject to adequate receivables. The Purchase Agreement contained customary fees, covenants and representations.

 

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company may from time to time offer and sell eligible accounts receivable to the Buyer. The Buyer pays the sales proceed of the purchase of the receivable invoices in two installments; first installment is Initial Purchase Price, which is 90% if the debtor is an agency of the U.S. Government, and 85% if the debtor is not an agency of the U.S. Government, of the invoice amount. The second and final installment is the residual purchase price that is the invoice amount less the initial purchase price less applicable discount factor and fees. 

 

During the three month period ended March 31, 2024, the Company sold a total of $2.9 million of receivables for $2.8 million in proceeds net of fees. As of March 31, 2024, there is no outstanding residual payment balance under the Purchase Agreement and it expired in April of 2024.

 

On February 29, 2024, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan”) and Promissory Note (the “Note,” and, together with the Loan, the “Agreements”) with Old Dominion National Bank.  The Agreements provide for a new $4,000,000 revolving line of credit facility (the “Credit Facility”).

 

Advances under the Credit Facility are subject to a borrowing base equal to the lesser of (i) $4,000,000 or (ii) 80% of billed accounts receivable less than 90 days outstanding.  Interest accrues on the outstanding principal balance of the Credit Facility at an annual rate equal to the Prime Rate published in The Wall Street Journal, subject to a floor rate of 7.25%.  Outstanding interest on the amount borrowed is payable monthly and all outstanding interest and principal is due on the maturity date of February 28, 2025.  The Credit Facility includes customary covenants and events of default, including the following items that are measured annually commencing December 31, 2024: (i) a minimum tangible net worth of $2.0 million; (ii) a minimum annual EBITDA of $1.0 million and (iii) a ratio of current assets to current liabilities of not less than 1.0 to 1.0. The terms of new Credit Facility prohibit the use of our Factoring Arrangement. The Company did not have an outstanding balance on its Credit Facility as of March 31, 2024.

9. Income Taxes

 

The Company’s effective tax rate was 6.1% and (0.7)% for the three month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The difference in the effective tax rate and the U.S. federal statutory rate was primarily due to the full valuation allowance the Company maintains against its deferred tax assets and state minimum taxes in the United States. The effective tax rate is calculated by dividing the Provision (benefit) for income taxes by the loss before provision (benefit) for income taxes.

 

10. Stockholders’ Equity

 

Common Stock

 

The Company is authorized to issue 30,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share. As of March 31, 2024, there were 9,311,761 shares issued and outstanding.

 

On June 22, 2023, the stockholders of the Company approved an amendment and restatement of the 2017 WidePoint Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) to increase the number of shares authorized for issuance by one million three hundred thousand shares (1,300,000).

 

During the three month period ended March 31, 2024, there were 503,313 shares of common stock vested in accordance with the vesting terms of RSAs. Six employees received less than the shares vested because they elected to have a total of 84,772 shares withheld in satisfaction of the employees corresponding tax liability of approximately $218,800. The Company’s payment of this tax liability was recorded as a cash flow from financing activity on the consolidated statement of cash flows.

 

During the three month period ended March 31, 2023, there were 15,837 shares of common stock vested in accordance with the vesting terms of the RSAs. Two employees received less than the shares vested because they elected to have a total of 1,993 shares withheld in satisfaction of the employees corresponding tax liability of approximately $3,600. The Company’s payment of this tax liability was recorded as a cash flow from financing activity on the consolidated statement of cash flows.

 

There were no stock option exercises during the three month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

 

Contingent Warrants

 

Liability-classified warrants consist of warrants to acquire common stock at an exercise price of $5.33 per share as part of the consideration for the acquisition of ITA in 2021, during the earn-out period from 2021 to 2024. Based on our consideration of the ASC 815-40 guidance, we account for these contingent warrants as a liability. The estimated fair value of outstanding contingent warrants accounted for as liabilities is determined at each balance sheet date. Any decrease or increase in the estimated fair value of the warrant liability since the most recent balance sheet date is recorded in the consolidated statement of operations as other income (expense).  

 

Warrants Issued

 

On March 31, 2022, the Company issued a warrant to purchase 75,000 shares of common stock as part of the contingent consideration earned by ITA for 2021 EBITDA achievement. The warrant contains a strike price of $5.33 and has a four-year contractual term.

The Company’s stock incentive plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors and authorizes the grant or award of incentive stock options (ISO), nonqualified stock options (NQSO), restricted stock awards (RSA), restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, dividend equivalent rights, performance unit awards and phantom shares. The Company issues new shares of common stock upon the exercise of stock options.

 

Restricted Stock 

 

The Company records the fair value of all restricted stock shares based on the grant date fair value and amortizes stock compensation on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Restricted stock shares are issued when vested and included in the total number of common shares issued and outstanding. There were no restricted stock share awards granted during the three month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

 

Stock Options 

 

The Company estimates the fair value of nonqualified stock awards using a Black-Scholes Option Pricing model (“Black-Scholes model”). The fair value of each stock award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes model, which requires an assumption of dividend yield, risk free interest rates, volatility, and expected option life. The risk-free interest rates are based on the U.S. Treasury yield for a period consistent with the expected term of the option in effect at the time of the grant. Expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of our common stock over the expected option term. The expected term of options granted is calculated using the simplified method. The Company recognizes forfeitures as they occur. There were no stock option awards granted during the three month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

 

At March 31, 2024, the Company had approximately $0.2 million of total unrecognized share-based compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, related to share-based compensation that will be recognized over the weighted average remaining period of 1.4 years.

 

Long-Term Incentive Plan

 

The Company maintains a long-term incentive plan (LTIP) that covers the period of January 1, 2023 through January 1, 2026. The plan was formally approved by the Board of Directors in 2024. The LTIP has two components of equity-based compensation. The first is 250,000 Restricted Stock Awards (RSAs) that were granted to members of management on April 2, 2024 and vested 33% on the date of grant with the remainder to vest on January 1, 2025 and 2026, subject to continued service. The estimated fair value of these RSAs of $640,500 will be recorded over the service period. The second is 250,000 Performance- based Restricted Stock Units (PSRUs) that would vest upon meeting, certain revenue or, adjusted EBITDA performance targets through December 31, 2025, subject to continued service. The estimated fair value of these PRSUs of $640,500 will be recorded if and when the Company concludes that it is probable that either performance condition will be achieved.

Revenue Mix

 

Our revenue mix fluctuates due to customer driven factors including: i) timing of technology and accessory refresh requirements from our customers; ii) onboarding of new customers that require carrier services; iii) subsequent decreases in carrier services as we optimize their data and voice usage; iv) delays in delivering products or services; and v) changes in control or leadership of our customers that lengthens our sales cycle, changes in laws or funding, among other circumstances that may unexpectedly change the revenue earned and/or duration of our services.  As a result, our revenue will vary by quarter.

 

For additional information related to our business operations, see the description of our business set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the SEC on March 26, 2024. 

 

Strategic Focus and Notable Events

 

Our longer-term strategic focus and goals are driven by our need to expand our critical mass so that we have more flexibility to fund investments in technology solutions and introduce new sales and marketing initiatives in order to expand our marketplace share and increase the breadth of our offerings in order to improve company sustainability and growth.

 

In fiscal 2024, we continue to focus on the following key goals:

 

 

Capture new sales opportunities,

 

Provide unmatched levels of service to our current customer base,

 

Attain full FedRAMP certification,

 

Grow our recurring high margin managed services revenues,

 

Add incremental capabilities to our Technology Management solution set and develop and acquire new high margin business lines,

 

Leverage our software platforms to grow our SaaS revenues and take advantage of the opportunities emerging from the growth in remote working,

 

Expand our customer base organically,

 

Continue to leverage the R2v3 Certification to further our ESG commitment,

 

Execute cross-sell opportunities identified from ITA acquisition, including Identity Management (IdM), Telecommunications Lifecycle Management (TLM) and Digital Billing & Analytics (DB&A) solution,

 

Growing our sales pipeline by continuing to invest in our business development and sales team assets,

 

Pursuing additional opportunities with our key systems integrator and strategic partners, and

 

Expanding our solution offerings into the commercial space,

 

Explore integration of artificial intelligence into our solution to provide better information security, and improve service delivery while reducing response time and cost.

 

Our strategy for achieving our longer-term goals include:

 

 

Establishing a market leadership position in the trusted mobility management (TM2) sector,

 

pursuing accretive and strategic acquisitions to expand our solutions and our customer base,

 

delivering new incremental offerings to add to our existing TM2 offering,

 

developing and testing innovative new offerings that enhance our TM2 offering, and

 

transitioning our data center and support infrastructure into a more cost-effective and federally approved cloud environment to comply with perceived future contract requirements.

 

We believe these actions could drive a strategic repositioning of our TM2 offering and may include the sale of non-aligned offerings coupled with acquisitions of complementary and supplementary offerings that could result in a more focused core set of TM2 offerings.

Our carrier services revenue was $19.3 million, an increase of approximately $5.8 million, as compared with the same period in 2023.

 

Our managed service fees were $8.7 million, an increase of approximately $1.8 million, as compared with the same period in 2023.

 

The increase in both carrier services revenues and managed service fees was primarily due to new federal customers signed in the third and fourth quarter of 2023.

 

Billable service fees remained relatively consistent with the same period in 2023.

 

Reselling and other services increased by approximately $1.4 million from the same period last year primarily due to additional products being offered for resale.  Reselling and other services are transactional in nature, and the amount and timing of revenue will vary significantly from quarter to quarter.

 

Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues for the three month period ended March 31, 2024 were $29.5 million (or 86% of revenues), which is consistent with $21.5 million (or 85% of revenues) in 2023. Included in cost of revenues is carrier costs paid on behalf of our DHS customer of approximately $19.4 million and $13.6 million for the three month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. We do not typically mark up our carrier payments.

 

Gross Profit.  Gross profit for the three month period ended March 31, 2024 was $4.6 million (or 14% of revenues), as compared to approximately $3.8 million (or 15% of revenues) in 2023.  The slight decline in gross margin as a percentage of revenues in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the same period last year was related to increased amortization expenses as our delivery platforms are placed into service.

 

Gross profit excluding carrier services was 31% in the first quarter of 2024 compared to 33% in the same period last year due in part to the increased amortization on our delivery platforms and due to increased reselling revenues which are lower margin.

 

Sales and Marketing.  Sales and marketing expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2024 was approximately $0.6 million (or -2% of revenues), as compared to approximately $0.5 million (or 2% of revenues) in 2023.

Table of Contents

 

General and Administrative.  General and administrative expenses for the three month period ended March 31, 2024 were approximately $4.4 million (or 15% of revenues), as compared to approximately $3.7 million (or 13% of revenues) in 2022. The increase during 2024 primarily relates to an increase in share based compensation expense compared to the same period last year.

 

Depreciation and Amortization.  Depreciation and amortization expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2024 was approximately $256,500 as compared to approximately $265,900 in 2023. The change in depreciation and amortization expense is related to capital investments in our delivery platforms reaching completion and beginning to be amortized.  

 

Other Expense.  Other expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2024 was approximately $44,200 as compared to approximately $56,800 in 2023. 

 

Income Taxes.  Income tax benefit for the three month period ended March 31, 2024 was approximately $42,100 as compared to income tax provision of approximately $6,300 in 2023.  Income taxes were accrued at an estimated effective tax rate of 6.1% for the three month period ended March 31, 2024 compared to (0.7)% for the three month period ended March 31, 2023.

 

Net Loss.  As a result of the cumulative factors annotated above, net loss for the three month period ended March 31, 2024  decreased by approximately $298,400 to approximately $653,100 as compared to net loss of approximately $951,500 for the three month period ended March 31, 2023.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our immediate sources of liquidity include cash, accounts receivable, unbilled receivables and access to our new credit agreement with Old Dominion National Bank.

 

At March 31, 2024, our net working capital was approximately $1.6 million as compared to $1.4 million at December 31, 2023.  The increase in net working capital was primarily driven by positive free cashflow and a decrease in investments in computer hardware and software purchases and capitalized internally developed software costs during the first quarter of 2024 compared to the prior period. We believe that our existing cash on hand, our anticipated cash flows from operations, and funds available under the Old Dominion Credit Facility, through its maturity on February 28, 2025, will be sufficient to meet our working capital, expenditure, and contractual obligation requirements for the next 12 months. 

 

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, net cash used in operations was approximately $1.6 million driven by collections of accounts receivables and temporary payable timing differences, as compared to approximately $2.6 million net cash used in operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

 

Our single largest cash operating expense is the cost of labor and the Company sponsored healthcare benefit programs.  Our second largest cash operating expense is our facility costs and related technology communication costs to support delivery of our services to our customers.  We lease most of our facilities under non-cancellable long term contracts that may limit our ability to reduce fixed infrastructure expenditures in the short term. Any changes to our fixed labor and/or infrastructure costs may require a significant amount of time to take effect depending on the nature of the change made. We also may experience temporary collection timing differences from time to time due to customer invoice processing delays that are often beyond our control. New customers often take more time to implement our billing processes. Further, changes within existing customers deployment of our services can cause temporary delays in billings.  While we have historically been able to resolve these administrative matters timely, given the scale of several new customer implementations, failure to resolve these matters on a timely basis could negatively impact our cashflows from operations.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

 

Cash used in investing activities provides an indication of our long term infrastructure investments. We maintain our own technology infrastructure and may need to make additional purchases of computer hardware, software and other fixed infrastructure assets to ensure our environment is properly maintained and can support our customer obligations. We typically fund purchases of long term infrastructure assets with available cash or capital lease financing agreements.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, cash provided by investing activities was approximately $0.3 million and consisted of receipt of deferred portion of proceeds from factoring arrangement offset by purchases of property and equipment.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2023,  cash used in investing activities was approximately $0.4 million and consisted of computer hardware and software purchases and capitalized internally developed software costs, primarily associated with upgrading our ITMS™ platform, secure identity management technology and network operations center.       

 

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

 

Cash provided by (used in) financing activities provides an indication of our debt financing and stock option exercises.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, cash used in financing activities was approximately $0.3 million and reflects line of credit advances and payments of $1.0 million, lease principal repayments of approximately $137,500, and withholding taxes paid on behalf of employees on net settled restricted stock awards of approximately $218,800.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, cash used in financing activities was approximately $0.1 million and reflects line of credit advances and payments of approximately $4.3 million, lease principal repayments of approximately $125,600, and withholding taxes paid on behalf of employees on net settled restricted stock awards of approximately $3,600.

 

Net Effect of Exchange Rate on Cash and Equivalents
