IPSIDY INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION
In the opinion of Management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which we considered as necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for future periods or the full year.
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ipsidy Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries MultiPay S.A.S., ID Global LATAM, IDGS S.A.S., ID Solutions, Inc., FIN Holdings Inc., Ipsidy Enterprises Limited, and Cards Plus Pty Ltd. (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Going concern
As of March 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $69.2 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2018 the Company earned revenue of approximately $0.5 million and incurred a loss from operations of approximately $2.5 million.
The reports of our independent registered public accounting firm on our consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 contained an explanatory paragraph regarding our ability to continue as a going concern based upon our net losses.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to meet its obligations and continue its operations for the next fiscal year. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon financial support from the Company’s current shareholders, the ability of the Company to obtain additional equity financing to continue operations, the Company’s ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations, successfully locating and negotiating with other business entities for potential acquisition and /or acquiring new clients to generate revenues and cash flows.
There is no assurance that the Company will ever be profitable or be able to secure funding or generate sufficient revenues to sustain operations. As such, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These unaudited 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 classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Net Loss per Common Share
The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260, “Earnings per Share”. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including stock options, using the treasury stock method, and convertible notes and stock warrants, using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options, warrants and conversion of convertible notes. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. The following potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 because their effect was antidilutive:
| Security | 2018 | 2017 | ||||||
| Stock Options | 107,958,331 | 106,050,000 | ||||||
| Warrants | 45,964,543 | 47,538,697 | ||||||
| Total | 153,922,874 | 153,588,669 | ||||||

Inventories
Inventories of kiosks held by IDGS S.A.S are stated at the lower of cost (using the first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value. The kiosks provide electronic ticketing for transit systems. Inventory of plastic/ID cards, digital printing material, which are held by Cards Plus Pty Ltd., are at the lower of cost (using the average method) or market. The Plastic/ID cards and digital printing material are used to provide plastic loyal ID and other types of cards. Inventories at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 consist of kiosks that were not placed into service and are held for sale and cards inventory.
Leases
All leases are classified at the inception as direct finance leases or operating leases based on whether the lease transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.
Leases that transfer to the lessee substantially all of the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the asset are classified as direct finance leases.
Revenue Recognition
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“Topic 606”). Topic 606 supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in ASU Topic 605, Revenue Recognition (“Topic 605”), and requires the recognition of revenue when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the considerations to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 also includes Subtopic 340-40, Other Assets and Deferred Costs - Contracts with Customers, which discusses the deferral of incremental costs of obtaining a contract with a customer, including the period of amortization of such costs. Collectively, we refer to Topic 606 and Subtopic 340-40 as the “new standard.” The new standard was adopted by the Company in our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2018.
The two permitted transition methods under the new standard are the full retrospective method, in which the new standard would be applied to each prior reporting period presented and the cumulative effect of applying the new standard would be recognized at the earliest period shown, or the modified retrospective method, in which the cumulative effect of applying the new standard would be recognized at the date of initial application. Based on our assessment, the impact of the new standard on our operations in prior periods is not significant. The following is the Company’s revenue recognition policy determined by revenue stream for its significant revenue generating activities through March 31, 2018.
Cards Plus - The Company recognizes revenue for the design and production of cards when products are shipped or a services have been performed due to the short term nature of the contracts.
Payment Processing – The Company recognizes revenue for variable fees generated for payment processing solutions that are earned on a usage fee over time based on monthly transaction volumes or on a monthly flat fee rate. Additionally, the Company also sells certain equipment from time to time for which revenue is recognized upon delivery to the customer.
Identity Solutions Software – The Company recognizes revenue based on the identified performance obligations over the performance period for fixed consideration and for variable fees generated that are earned on a usage fee based over time based on monthly transaction volumes or on a monthly flat fee rate. The Company had a deferred revenue contract liability of approximately $539,000 and $123,000 as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 for certain revenue that will be earned in future periods. The $123,000 of deferred revenue contract liability as of December 31, 2017 was earned in the three months ended March 31, 2018.
In 2018, the Company introduced its new transaction platform and products as well as its pay for performance plan for both internal and external salesforce, which is based on a percentage of revenues received by the Company. For the quarter ended March 31, 2018, no revenues associated with these new platforms were recognized or required to be recognized as the services have not yet commenced. The requirements under the new standard will impact future revenue and expenses recognition. The primary impact on accounting for expenses of adopting the new standard, relates to the capitalization and deferral of incremental commission and other costs of obtaining new contracts. We will defer direct and incremental commission as well as costs to obtain a contract and amortize those costs over the term of the related contract. As of March 31, 2018, there was no deferred commissions.
We will review each new contract for the related performance obligations and related revenue and expense recognition implications. We expect that the revenues derived from the new identity services could include multiple performance obligations. A performance obligation under the new revenue standard is defined as a promise to provide a “distinct” good or service to a customer. The Company has determined that one possible treatment under the new standard is that these services will represent a stand-ready series of distinct daily services that are substantially the same, with the same pattern of transfer to the customer. Further, the Company has determined that the performance obligation to provide account access and facilitate transactions may meet the criteria for the “as invoiced” practical expedient, in that the Company has a right to consideration from a customer in an amount that corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the Company’s performance completed to date. As a result, the Company anticipates it may recognize revenue in the amount to which the Company has a right to invoice, based on completed performance at the relevant date. Additionally, the contracts could include implementation services, or support on an “as needed” basis and we will review each contract and determine whether such performance obligations are separate and distinct and apply the new standard accordingly to the revenue and expense derived from or related to each such service. A more complete analysis of the impact of the standard on these contracts will be performed during the three months ended June 30, 2018 which is the period of time when services are expected to commence and the conclusions reached by management may be different from those described above. For the quarter ended March 31, 2018, no revenues were recognized or required to be recognized under this practical expedient.
Additionally, the Company will capitalize the incremental costs of acquiring and fulfilling a contract with a customer if the Company expects to recover those costs. The incremental costs of acquiring and fulfilling a contract are those that the Company incurs to acquire and fulfill a contract with a customer that it would not have incurred if the contract had not been acquired (for example, a sales commission or specific incremental costs associated with the contract).
10
The Company capitalizes the costs incurred to acquire and fulfill a contract only if those costs meet all the following criteria:
| a. | The costs relate directly to a contract or to an anticipated contract that the Company can specifically identify. |
| b. | The costs generate or enhance resources of the Company that will be used in satisfying (or in continuing to satisfy) performance obligations in the future. |
| c. | The costs are expected to be recovered. |
The Company will capitalize contract acquisition and fulfillment costs related to signing or renewing contracts that meet the above criteria, which will be classified as contract cost assets in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Contract cost assets will be amortized using the straight-line method over the expected period of benefit beginning at the time revenue begins to be realized. The amortization of contract fulfillment cost assets associated with facilitating transactions will be recorded as cost of services in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. The amortization of contract acquisition cost assets associated with sales commissions that qualify for capitalization will be recorded as selling, general and administrative expense in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations.
As of March 31, 2018, the Company had deferred contract costs, represented by contract cost assets of approximately $206,000 which are included in other currents assets for certain costs incurred for the future delivery of election support services. The performance obligation should principally be met in the second quarter of 2018 when most of the costs are expected to be expensed and the associated revenue recognized for the related performance obligation.
Revenue related to direct financing leases is outside the scope of Topic 606 and is recognized over the term of the lease using the effective interest method.

NOTE 11 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Matters
From time to time, the Company is a party to various legal or administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business. While any litigation contains an element of uncertainty, we have no reason to believe the outcome of such proceedings will have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or results of operations of the Company.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Going concern
As of March 31, 2018, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $69.2 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2018 the Company earned revenue of approximately $.5 million and incurred a loss from operations of approximately $2.5 million.
The reports of our independent registered public accounting firms on our consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 contained an explanatory paragraph regarding our ability to continue as a going concern based upon our net losses.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to meet its obligations and continue its operations for the next fiscal year. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon financial support from the Company’s current shareholders, the ability of the Company to obtain additional equity financing to continue operations, the Company’s ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations, successfully locating and negotiating with other business entities for potential acquisition and /or acquiring new clients to generate revenues and cash flows.
There is no assurance that the Company will ever be profitable or be able to secure funding or generate sufficient revenues to sustain operations. As such, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These unaudited 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 classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Overview
Ipsidy Inc. (formerly known as ID Global Solutions Corporation) together with its subsidiaries (the “Company”, “we” or “our”), is a provider of secure, biometric identification, identity management and electronic transaction processing services. In a world that is increasingly digital and mobile, our vision is to enable solutions that provide pre-transaction verification of identity as well as embed identity verification within every electronic transaction message processed through our platform, or other electronic systems.
We are building upon our existing capabilities in biometric identification and multi-factor identity management solutions to develop an identity transaction platform for our business customers. The platform has been designed to enable the end users of our business customers to more easily authenticate their identity to a mobile phone or portable device of their choosing (as opposed to dedicated hardware). The existing system enables participants to complete transactions with a digitally signed authentication response, including the underlying transaction data and embedded attributes of the participant’s identity.
We believe that it is essential that businesses and consumers know who is on the other side of an electronic transaction and have an audit trail, proving that the identity of the other party was duly verified. We are therefore developing solutions intended to provide our customers with the next level of transaction security, control and certainty. Our platform has been developed to use biometric and multi-factor identity management solutions, which are intended to support a wide variety of electronic transactions. We define “electronic transactions” in the broadest sense to include not only financial transactions (i.e. exchanges of value in all of their forms), and legal transactions (e.g. approving the release of personal or other confidential data or the execution of documents), but also access control to physical environments (for example border crossings and secure areas at offices, data centers and other sensitive locations) and digital environments (e.g. accessing account information, voting systems, email systems and controlling data network log-ins).
17
The Company’s products currently focus on the broad requirement for identity, access and transaction verification and associated identity management needs and the requirement for cost-effective and secure mobile electronic payment solutions for institutions and their customers. We aim to offer our customers solutions that can be integrated into each customer’s business operations in order to facilitate their use and enhance the end user customer experience.
Our digital mobile wallet applications, or electronic account holder are used to contain different services and accounts that can be easily added and enable users to conveniently and securely effect a variety of electronic transactions, using their identity. One example is our closed-loop payment account, digital issuance platform, that is intended to offer secure and cost-effective methods of conversion of cash and paper to electronic payments. Once it is implemented, consumers accessing this system, using their mobile phones, electronic devices, or smart card payment tokens will be able to participate in the digital economy thereby facilitating financial inclusion for the un-banked and under banked population around the globe. Another example is for consumers and employees to use their mobile application to verify identity, in order to access secure digital, or physical environments. We have recently launched a pilot of the Ipsidy Access solution using our IDLok authentication service providing access control to commercial, multi-tenanted buildings.
Management believes that some of the advantages of the Company’s Transaction Platform approach are the ability to leverage the platform to support a variety of vertical markets including the identity management and transaction processing sectors and the adaptability of the platform to the requirements of new markets and new products requiring low cost, secure, and configurable mobile solutions. These vertical markets include but are not limited to elections, border security, public safety, public transportation, enterprise security, payment transactions and banking. The Company believes that the various technologies that the Company is developing and has acquired can be combined into a unified offering. At its core, this offering is intended to facilitate the processing of diverse electronic transactions, be they payments, votes, or physical or digital access, all of which can include identity management, verification and identity transaction recording.
The Company’s solutions for fingerprint based identity management and electronic payment transaction processing are in the market today. For example, in December 2017, we won an international competitive tender to provide our IDSearch Automated Fingerprint Identification de-duplication system (AFIS) to the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission, for them to ensure that no duplicate entries exist in the voter roll for the forthcoming election and the contract was signed in March 2018. We are still in the process of integrating the technologies, which we have developed internally with those we have acquired and thereby creating combined solutions intended to better service our target markets. The Company continues to invest in developing, patenting and acquiring the various elements necessary to complete the platform, which is intended to allow us to achieve our goals. In order to achieve this integration and development, the Company will need to raise additional capital.
The Company was incorporated in the State of Delaware on September 21, 2011 and changed its name to Ipsidy Inc. on February 1, 2017, and our common stock is traded on the OTCQB tier of OTC Markets under the trading symbol “IDTY”. Our corporate headquarters is located at 780 Long Beach Blvd., Long Beach, NY 11561 and our main phone number is 516–274-8700. We maintain a website at www.ipsidy.com.

Adjusted EBITDA
This discussion includes information about Adjusted EBITDA that is not prepared in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and is not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. A reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure is included below.
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents GAAP net income (loss) adjusted to exclude (1) interest expense, (2) interest income, (3) provision for income taxes, (4) depreciation and amortization, (5) stock-based compensation expense and (6) certain other items management believes affect the comparability of operating results.
Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA, when viewed with our results under GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations, provides useful information about our period-over-period results. Adjusted EBITDA is presented because management believes it provides additional information with respect to the performance of our fundamental business activities and is also frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of comparable companies. We also rely on Adjusted EBITDA as a primary measure to review and assess the operating performance of our company and our management, and it will be a focus as we invest in and grow the business. Additionally, we will be using Adjusted EBITDA in connection with our executive performance-based compensation in 2018.
18
Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation from, or as a substitute for, analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
| ● | Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; |
| ● | Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; |
| ● | Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; |
| ● | Adjusted EBITDA does not include the impact of certain charges or gains resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations. |
Because of these limitations, adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA only as a supplement to our GAAP results.

19
Cost of sales
During the three months ended March 31, 2018, cost of sales was less than the cost of sales in the three months ended March 31, 2017 principally due to improved manufacturing efficiency as new equipment was placed into service in late first quarter of 2017 as well as lower revenue Cost of sales is related to Cards Plus.
Operating Expenses
During the three-month period ended March 31, 2018 compared to March 31, 2017, general and administrative expense decreased by approximately $2.5 million principally due to lower stock compensation charges.

Other Income (Expense)
Derivative Liability
During the first three months of 2017, the Company performed valuations of the existing liability at the applicable dates as these convertible debentures terms and conditions were modified and/or eliminated because of the Company’s elimination and repayment of certain existing obligations as of January 31, 2017. In the first three months of 2017, the Company recorded an expense of ($.6 million) due to these valuations, a gain on the settlement of outstanding indebtedness $2.8 million and a loss on the modification of derivatives ($.3 million)
As a result of the conversion and repayment of the outstanding indebtedness and related accrued interest as well as the elimination of anti-dilution rights of Stock Purchase Warrants, the Company after the first quarter of 2017 does not have any additional income statement benefit or charge.
Interest expense
Interest expense decreased in the three months ended March 31, 2018 principally due to the debt for equity conversion on January 31, 2017.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate sufficient cash to satisfy its needs for cash. As of March 31, 2018, the Company had approximately $2.4 million of cash and had $1.8 million of net working capital.
