NOTE 1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

Nature of Operations

 

Reliability Incorporated (“Reliability” or the “Company”) is a leading provider of employer of record and temporary media and information technology (“IT”) staffing services that operates, along with its wholly owned subsidiary, The Maslow Media, Inc., (“MMG” or “Maslow”), primarily within the United States of America (the “U.S.”) in three industry segments: Employer of Record (“EOR”), Staffing and Video Production segment provides script to screen media talent. EOR which is a unique workforce management solution, representing 81.3% of the revenue. Our Staffing segment provides skilled field talent on a nationwide basis for IT and finance and accounting client partner projects. Our staffing includes revenue derived from permanent placement. Video Production involves assembling and providing crews for special projects that can last anywhere from a week to six months.

 

Reliability was incorporated under the laws of the State of Texas in 1953, but the then principal business of the Company started in 1971 and was closed down in 2007. The Company completed a reverse merger with MMG (the “Merger”) on October 29, 2019. The Company acquired the customer contracts and trade receivables and assumed certain liabilities of Intelligent Quality Solutions (“IQS”) in exchange for a reduction of notes receivable from Vivos Holdings LLC (“Vivos Holdings”), the previous sole shareholder of MMG, (the “Acquisition”) on December 1, 2019. The owners of Vivos Holdings and their transferees who were issued shares of Reliability Common Stock include Naveen Doki, Silvija Valleru, Shirisha Janumpally (through Judos Trust and Federal Systems), and Kalyan Pathuri (through Igly Trust) together own approximately 84% of the issued and outstanding shares of Reliability Common Stock and are referred to herein as “Vivos” or the “Vivos Shareholders.”

 

Basis of presentation

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all wholly owned divisions, including its 100% owned subsidiary, Maslow Media Group, Inc. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Theses unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q. Operating results of the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of financial results for the full year. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. In preparing these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates and assumptions included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements relate revenue recognition, allowances for doubtful accounts, recoverability of notes receivable, useful lives for depreciation and amortization, loss contingencies, allocation of purchase price in connection with business combinations, valuation allowances for deferred income taxes, and the assumptions used for web site development cost classifications.

 

For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

For the quarter ended March 31, 2020, 33.4% of revenue came from AT&T Services, Inc. (inclusive of its DirecTV division) (“AT&T”) and 9.4% from Janssen Pharmaceuticals (which includes workforce partners Johnson & Johnson). AT&T and Janssen accounted for 39% and 8.6% of revenue for year ended March 31, 2019. No other client exceeded 10% of revenues.

NOTE 2. LIQUIDITY AND GOING CONCERN

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. On May 5, 2020 (the “Effective Date”), MMG received the proceeds of a loan pursuant to into a promissory note (the “Note”) under the Paycheck Protection Program with TBK Bank, SSB (“Lender”), in the amount of $5,216 (the “PPP Loan”). The Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) was established under the recently enacted Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) and is administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”). The Lender’s affiliate, Advance Business Capital LLC (d/b/a Triumph Business Capital), is currently the Company’s factor under its existing Factoring and Security Agreement, dated November 4, 2016, as amended and modified.

 

The Company intends to apply for forgiveness of the required repayment of some or all of the PPP Loan in accordance with the PPP. The Company believes that a significant portion of the PPP Loan will be so forgiven, however no assurance can be given that any of such PPP Loan will, in fact, be forgiven. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the forgiveness of the PPP Loan. If the PPP Loan is not forgiven in significant part, and the other challenges facing the Company are not resolved favorably, the Company may cease to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company’s ongoing liquidity position is facing pressures due to the loss of business resulting from the COVID-19 Pandemic as well as increased pressure to make cash payments pursuant to the Settlement Agreements (filed as exhibits 10.4, 10.5 and 10.6 the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on October 30, 2019) prior to the Company’s anticipated liquidation of the shares of Company Common Stock pledged pursuant to the Agreement for the Contingent Liquidation of the Common Stock of Reliability Incorporated (as successor in interest to Maslow Media Group, Inc.), dated October 28, 2019 (the “Liquidation Agreement”) (filed as exhibit 10.30 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on October 30, 2019). The Vivos Shareholders that are the counterparties to the Liquidation Agreement are not cooperating with the Company to liquidate the shares subject thereto as contemplated thereby. No assurance can be given that the Company will return to its pre-Pandemic revenue levels, how long it will take to enforce the requirements of the Liquidation Agreement, and the actual amount of PPP Loan forgiven. As a result, the Company face hurdles to maintaining sufficient liquidity to continue to operate, in which case the Company might be forced to liquidate or seek to reorganize under applicable bankruptcy statutes.

 

The Company is quoted on the OTC Marketplace under the symbol “RLBY”.

 

NOTE 3. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued new guidance on disclosures related to fair value measurements. The guidance is intended to improve the effectiveness of the notes to financial statements by facilitating clearer communication, and it includes multiple new, eliminated and modified disclosure requirements. The guidance was effective for the Company as of January 1, 2020 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued new guidance on the accounting for internal-use software. The guidance aligns the accounting for costs incurred to implement a cloud computing arrangement that is a service arrangement with the guidance on capitalizing costs associated with developing or obtaining internal-use software. The guidance was effective for the Company as of January 1, 2020 and did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

 

In December 2019, the FASB issued new guidance on income taxes. The guidance removes certain exceptions to the general income tax accounting principles and clarifies and amends existing guidance to facilitate consistent

 

application of the accounting principles. The new guidance is effective for us as of January 1, 2021. The Company is assessing the impact of the adoption of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

 

NOTE 4. ACQUISITION

 

As a result of the Acquisition on December 1, 2019, our IT staffing division first quarter revenues were $798, which was an 8% improvement over the performance of IQS a year ago. The gross profit in the first quarter of $234 was 14% better than a year ago. Gross margins improved to 29% from 28% a year ago.

 

Results for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, are below. For comparability, the three months ended March 31, 2019 presents proforma (unaudited) data to include IQS operations in Company as if it were acquired on January 1, 2019.

 

   2020   2019 
Revenues  $8,801   $9,035 
Operating income  $37   $221 
Net income (loss)  $(238)  $91 

 

NOTE 5. DEBT

 

Convertible Debt

 

The Company has notes payable in the amount of $916 as of March 31, 2020 which was $890 on December 31, 2019, respectively pursuant to a convertible debt offering that commenced June 13, 2019. The offering was conducted pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules promulgated thereunder. The notes bear interest at 12% per year, with the balance due and payable within 1 year from the issuance date unless earlier converted into shares of Company Common Stock upon the issuance by Reliability of Company Common Stock for gross proceeds of at least $5,000. Warrants can only be redeemable if the proceeds of $5,000 are obtained by the Company from the sale of equity securities.

 

In February 2020, we took out a $250 6-month term loan from Triumph at 10% APR, in order to meet our cash obligations. On April 7, 2020t, in the face of the COVID 19 lockdown, Triumph offered a 2-month payment holiday and to extend the note payment, which ultimately was agreed to end in February 2021.

 

Tax Liabilities

 

When the Maslow Media Group was initially acquired by Vivos Holdings, LLC in December 2016, Reliability’s corporate status was changed from an S Corp to a C Corp due to its new ownership structure. This triggered an accelerated tax event, a $215 estimated annual impact per year for four years, that Reliability is working with the IRS to pay off. As of March 31, 2020, the tax liability was $802 compared to $817 as of December 31, 2019.

Factoring Facilities

 

Triumph Business Capital

 

On November 4, 2016, the Company entered into a factoring and security agreement with Triumph Business Capital (“Triumph”). Pursuant to the agreement, the Company received advances on its accounts receivable (i.e. invoices) through Triumph to fund growth and operations. The proceeds of this agreement were used to pay operating costs of the business which include employee salaries, vendor payments and overhead expenses. On January 5, 2018, the agreement was amended to lower the factoring fee and interest rate for a term of one year. The agreement was amended again on January 19, 2018, to increase the maximum advance rate to $5,500. In January 2020, a new agreement was negotiated with Triumph lowering advance rate from 18 basis points to 15 and the interest rate from prime plus 2.5% to prime plus 2%. The amount of an invoice eligible for sale to Triumph went from 90% to 93%. The agreement which previously renewed annually, is now month to month. The Company continues to be obligated to meet certain financial covenants in respect to invoicing and reserve account balance.

 

In accordance with the agreement, a reserve amount is required for the total unpaid balance of all purchased accounts multiplied by a percentage equal to the difference between one hundred percent and the advanced rate percentage. As of March 31, 2020, the required amount was 10%. Any excess of the reserve amount is paid to the Company on a weekly basis, as requested. If a reserve shortfall exists for a period of ten-days, the Company is required to make payment to the financial institution for the shortage.

 

Accounts receivable were sold with full recourse. Proceeds from the sale of receivables were $6,857 for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The total outstanding balance under the recourse contract was $4,169 March 31, 2020 and $5,508 as of December 31, 2019.

 

The Factoring Facilities are collateralized by substantially all the assets of the Company. In the event of a default, the Factor may demand that the Company repurchase the receivable or debit the reserve account. Total finance line fees for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 totaled $14 and $12, respectively.

 

Wilco Capital Management

 

Following the Acquisition, the Company continued factoring IQS Receivables with IQS’s factor, Wilco Capital Management (formerly known as First Avenue Funding, LLC) (“Wilco”). As of March 31, 2020, the outstanding balance was $0 as this relationship ended on March 31, 2020, when Triumph bought out this factoring relationship.

 

NOTE 6. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY (“VIE”)

 

In December 2019, the Company’s executive management learned that prior to the Merger, in December 2017, one of Vivos Shareholders, on behalf of Maslow, executed a guarantee of obligations of Vivos Real Estate Holdings, LLC (“VREH”), under a mortgage loan for the purchase of the property at 22 Baltimore Rd., Rockville, Maryland. Maslow leased this space on market terms. The lease obligation had not been included in Maslow’s financial statements and was not separately disclosed prior to the Merger. The Company terminated the lease of the property at 22 Baltimore Road effective April 30, 2020.

 

U.S. GAAP requires the Company to assess whether VREH is a VIE because Maslow (i) share common shareholders who may or may not have significant influence or control, (ii) is a guarantor of the mortgage loan, (iii) is the sole lessee under a lease where the landlord is an affiliate of the Company, and (iv) has no other business in VREH.

A VIE is a legal business structure (such as a corporation, partnership, or trust) that:

 

  does not provide equity investors with voting rights; or
  the equity investors do not have sufficient financial resources to meet the ongoing operating needs of the business. This is referred to as a thinly capitalized structure.

 

Although the Company has neither any decision-making authority over VREH, nor financial interest in the operations of VREH, the Company is required to consolidate its financial statements with those of VREH for the reasons mentioned above, as it is considered the primary beneficiary of the VIE. As a result of the Company terminating the lease on April 30, 2020, VREH will no longer be considered a VIE after April 30, 2020.

 

The assets and liabilities of the consolidated VIE are comprised of the following as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

 

   2020   2019 
Building  $1,856   $1,856 
Office equipment   185    185 
Land   510    510 
Accumulated depreciation   167    148 
Liabilities assumed   1,779    1,790 
Total net assets consolidated  $605   $613 

 

In addition, the related party note receivable with the VIE of $749 and $772 was eliminated for the period ending March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

 

The potential financial exposure to loss as a guarantor could equal all the book value of the related party mortgage loan payable, a total of approximately $1,779 and $1,790 as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively with $46 due within the next year. To date, the Company has not been called on for any loan repayment guarantee.

 

As a result of the consolidation, the notes receivable held between Maslow and VREH was eliminated in consolidation. See Note 10 for details on the related party notes receivable.

 

NOTE 7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

The Company is engaged from time to time in legal matters and proceedings arising out of its normal course of business. The Company establishes a liability related to its legal proceedings and claims when it has determined that it is probable that the Company has incurred a liability and the related amount can be reasonably estimated. If the Company determines that an obligation is reasonably possible, the Company will, if material, disclose the nature of the loss contingency and the estimated range of possible loss, or include a statement that no estimate of the loss can be made.

 

On or about February 17, 2020, the Company, as plaintiff, filed a complaint with the Circuit Court of Montgomery County, Maryland against Vivos Holdings, LLC, VREH and Naveen Doki (the “Defendants”), to enforce Maslow’s rights under certain promissory notes and a personal guarantee made by the defendants (the “Debt Collection Suit”). The case is proceeding. The Company believes that it will be granted a judgment in its favor. Maslow intends to continue to vigorously prosecute this litigation.

 

On or about May 6, 2020, the Defendants filed with the Circuit Court of Montgomery County, Maryland a Counterclaim and Third-Party Complaint for Damages, Declaratory and Injunctive Relief and Jury Demand (the “Counterclaim”), The Company believes that the Counterclaim has no merit and is a tactic designed to delay the Defendant’s payment of the debts they owe the Company. The Company will vigorously defend itself and its indemnified officers, directors and other parties as permitted by the Company’s organizational documents.

On or about June 5, 2020 the Company submitted a Claimant’s Notice of Intention to Arbitrate and Demand For Arbitration with the American Arbitration Association in New York, and to the Respondents thereto: Naveen Doki; Silvija Valleru; Shirisha Janumpally (individually and in her capacity as trustee of Judos Trust); Kalyan Pathuri (individually in his capacity as trustee of Igly Trust) and Federal Systems (the “Respondents”). The Arbitration alleges that the Respondents breached the Merger Agreement in a number of significant respects and committed fraud in connection with the Merger. The Company is seeking damages which will likely be in whole or in part shares of Company Common Stock received by the Respondents in connection with the Merger. The Company expects to prevail in the Arbitration.

 

On or about February 28, 2020, the Company obtained a temporary restraining order (the “TRO”) regarding any and all actions purportedly taken at an improper meeting of the shareholders of the Company ostensibly called by the Vivos Shareholders. The TRO was granted because the Vivos Shareholders failed to properly call and hold a shareholders meeting in accordance with applicable Texas corporate law and therefore any action purported to be taken there have no meaning or effect. The hearing on motion had been delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. On or about May 12, 2020 the Vivos Shareholders filed a motion for contempt alleging that the Company violated the terms of the TRO. At a hearing held on June 5, 2020 the Texas court dismissed the motion for contempt and heard technical arguments regarding jurisdiction. This decision is not expected to have a material impact on the Company regardless of the outcome.

 

On February 28, 2020, Healthcare Resource Network, LLC filed a complaint against Maslow in the Circuit Court of Montgomery County, Maryland. The plaintiff has not specified any alleged damage caused by Maslow and the Company believes any claims are without merit. The Company will defend itself from this case.

 

On September 28, 2018, Credit Cash filed a complaint against Maslow, Vivos, Vivos Acquisitions, LLC, Dr. Doki, Dr. Valleru (the “Parties”) and other defendants in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey for, among other things, breach of contract of the Maslow and HRCN Credit Facilities and their respective guaranties in relation to the November 15, 2017 agreement (the “DNJ Action”). On October 30, 2018, Credit Cash filed a motion to intervene in an action pending in New York State, Monroe County, filed by HCRN and LE Finance, LLC against the Parties and other defendants (“NY State Action”). On December 10, 2018, the Parties entered into a settlement agreement for the purpose of settling certain claims related to the DNJ Action only. Pursuant to the settlement agreement, certain repayment terms were agreed upon between Credit Cash and the Parties, but Credit Cash did not relinquish the right to pursue any claims related to the NY State Action, nor to pursue any remedies against any of the parties in relation to the November 15, 2017 agreement. Certain of the Vivos Shareholders executed and delivered to Maslow that certain Agreement for the Contingent Liquidation of the Common Stock of Maslow Media Group, Inc., dated as of October 28, 2019 (the “Liquidation Agreement”), pursuant to which such Vivos Shareholders pledged to Maslow the shares of Company Common Stock they received in the Merger to provide the capital required to satisfy the Parties’ obligations under the Settlement Agreements. To date these Vivos Shareholders have not cooperated with the Company to monetize those shares as contemplated by the Liquidation Agreement. The Company will take appropriate action to enforce its rights under the Liquidation Agreement. On or about March 16, 2020, Credit Cash entered its New Jersey confession of judgment with the Circuit Court of Montgomery County, Maryland.

 

The Company may be required to make cash payments pursuant to the Settlement Agreements (filed as exhibits 10.4, 10.5 and 10.6 the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on October 30, 2019) prior to the Company’s anticipated liquidation of the shares of Company Common Stock pledged pursuant to the Liquidation Agreement. On or about May 5, 2020, Libertas Holdings LLC and Kinetic Direct Funding entered their New York confession of judgment with the Circuit Court of Montgomery County, Maryland. The Vivos Shareholders that are the counterparties to the Liquidation Agreement are not cooperating with the Company to liquidate the shares subject thereto as contemplated thereby.

NOTE 9. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

Stock Purchase Agreement

 

On November 9, 2016, Vivos Holdings LLC (Vivos), a related party affiliate and former owner of Maslow Media Group, acquired 100% of the Company through a stock acquisition exchange for a purchase price of $1,750. $1,400 was paid at settlement with proceeds from the Company and also entered into a promissory note to pay the remaining $350. The promissory note was to be paid in twenty-four equal installments, including interest at 4.5%, in the amount of approximately $15, commencing six months after closing with the last payment on March 1, 2019; these payments were paid by the Company on behalf of the Vivos. Vivos subsequently entered into a promissory note receivable with the Company, described below, for the full stock purchase price.

 

Notes Receivable

 

The Company has notes receivable from Vivos and VREH, a member of Vivos, both related party affiliates.

 

In connection with the stock purchase agreement noted above, on November 15, 2016, the Company executed a promissory note receivable with Vivos in the amount of $1,400. As defined by the agreement, the loan consists of two periods, whereby the first period from November 15, 2016 until September 30, 2018, no principal or interest payments were required. Interest will accrue monthly and a new loan in the amount of $1,773 will be subject to a second loan period. During the second loan period, interest shall be paid in twenty equal consecutive payments, quarterly. Principal plus any unpaid interest is due September 20, 2023. Interest during both loan periods accrues at a rate of 2.5%. Additionally, monthly payments of $15 are made on behalf of Vivos to the seller by the Company. These payments, plus any other payments made by the Company on behalf of Vivos, are added to the principal balance of the promissory note receivable. In 2018, all quarterly interest payments to be made in phase 2 were offset by the management fees due to Vivos. As of March 31,2020, and December 31, 2019, the total outstanding balance was $2,685 and $2,666, which includes accrued interest receivable of $17 and $162, respectively

 

On November 15, 2017, the Company executed an intercompany promissory note receivable with VREH in the amount of $772. As defined by the agreement, the loan consists of two periods, whereby the first period from November 15, 2017 until March 31, 2018, no principal or interest payments are required. During the first loan period, interest accrued monthly and a new loan amount of $781 will be subject to a second loan period. During the second period, interest is payable in 20 equal consecutive installments and the principal balance plus accrued and unpaid interest is due March 31, 2023. Interest during both periods accrues at a rate of 3.5% annually. In 2018, all quarterly interest payments to be made in Phase 2 were offset by the management fees due to Vivos. In addition, principal payments totaling $30 were made by Vivos. As of March 31, 2020, and December 31, 2019, the total outstanding balance was $749 and $772, respectively. The balances were eliminated during consolidation of the VIE. See Note 7.

Dr. Doki is a 5% or greater beneficial holder of Company Common Stock, and therefore is a related party. As of February 2020, the Company filed a lawsuit against the majority shareholder, pursuant to the personal guaranty agreement for defaulting on the outstanding notes receivables.

On September 5, 2019, Maslow entered into a Secured Promissory Note agreement with Vivos, pursuant to which Maslow issued a secured promissory note to Vivos in the principal amount of $750. The note bears interest at 2.5% per year and requires Vivos to make monthly payments to Maslow of $10 beginning December 1, 2019, with balance due and payable on November 1, 2026. Upon an event of default, which occurs upon failure of Vivos to make any monthly payment due under the terms of the note, Maslow has the right to declare the entire unpaid balance of the note due and payable. The note is secured by 30,000,000 shares of Company Common Stock, which is due and payable upon a default by Vivos, which occurs upon failure of Vivos to make any monthly payment due under the terms of the note. In addition, both Naveen Doki and Silvija Valleru personally guaranty the repayment of the note by Vivos. Naveen Doki and Silvija Valleru are beneficial owners of Vivos and are also 5% or greater beneficial owners of Company Common Stock. As of March 31, 2020, and December 31, 2019, the total outstanding balance was $755 and $752, respectively, which includes interest of $5 and $2, respectively. This note is in default and we are pursuing collection.

 

Debt Settlement Agreements

 

On August 10, 2017, Vivos executed a receivable advance agreement with Argus Capital Funding. The Company received a net advance of $487 in exchange for $705 of the Company’s accounts receivable. Included in this loan is a fee of $218. The agreement was refinanced on November 15, 2017, when Vivos, and Vivos Acquisitions, LLC, via Dr. Naveen Doki and Dr. Silvija Valleru entered into an agreement with CC Business Solutions, a division of Credit Cash NJ, LLC (“Credit Cash”) pursuant to which Credit Cash advanced to the Company $600 in exchange for $780 of the Company’s accounts receivable, to be repaid fully by approximately May 20, 2019 (the “Maslow Credit Facility”).

 

In addition, pursuant to the same agreement, Credit Cash advanced to Healthcare Resource Network, a company owned by Vivos (“HCRN”) a credit facility in the principal amount of $1,005 (“HCRN Credit Facility”). Each of Maslow, Vivos, Vivos Acquisitions, LLC, Dr. Naveen Doki and Dr. Silvija Valleru guaranteed the HCRN Credit Facility. To secure repayment of their guarantee obligations, the Company and Vivos granted to Credit Cash a security interest in all their assets. On September 14, 2018, the Company defaulted on the Maslow Credit Facility. In addition, on same date, the HCRN Credit Facility went into default. As a result, repayment on both facilities was accelerated, with the full balance for each becoming immediately due and payable. On December 10, 2018, the Company, Vivos, Vivos Acquisitions, LLC, Dr. Doki, and Dr. Valleru and Credit Cash entered into a settlement agreement in connection the November 15, 2017 agreement to govern the terms of the repayment of the HCRN Credit Facility and Maslow Credit Facility. Pursuant to the settlement agreement, the Company agreed to pay $10 per week until the entire balance of the Maslow Credit Facility was paid off. Pursuant to a subsequent agreement dated May 17, 2019 not involving the Company, Vivos and Vivos Acquisitions, LLC agreed to fully repay the HCRN Credit Facility via quarterly payments beginning June 30, 2019. The HCRN Credit Facility is still being repaid by Vivos, and as of October 29, 2019, has an outstanding balance of approximately $635. The Company has a binding and enforceable agreement with certain shareholders permitting Maslow to liquidate up to the full amount of Maslow equity held by such shareholders in order to satisfy the shareholders’ obligations under the Settlement Agreements. The total outstanding balance owed by the Company as of December 31, 2018 was $351. As of March 31, 2020, the Company has repaid the outstanding balance due for the Maslow Credit Facility under the settlement agreement in full.

 

The Company is facing pressure to make cash payments pursuant to the Settlement Agreements prior to the Company’s anticipated liquidation of the shares of Company Common Stock pledged pursuant to the Liquidation Agreement. The Vivos Shareholders that are the counterparties to the Liquidation Agreement are not cooperating with the Company to liquidate the shares subject thereto as contemplated thereby. No assurance can be given how long it will take to enforce the requirements of the Liquidation Agreement. The resulting time gap may present a liquidity issue for the Company.

NOTE 12. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through June 11, 2020, the date on which the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were available to be issued. Based upon this evaluation, management has determined that no material subsequent events have occurred that would require recognition in or disclosures in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, except as follows:

 

On April 30, 2020, the Company terminated the lease of the property at 22 Baltimore Road. See Note 6for further details. Employees continue working from their homes, as they have since March 16 due to COVID-19, using the Company’s cloud-based infrastructure to carry out their duties.

 

On May 5, 2020, MMG received the PPP Loan. See Note 2 for further details.

 

COVID-19

 

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China. In January 2020, this coronavirus spread to other countries, including the United States, and efforts to contain the spread of this coronavirus intensified. On March 30, Maryland governor Larry Hogan issued a stay at home order which resulted in the Company moving to a work from home model. Whereas we were prepared for this situation and were able to adapt quickly, our business began to suffer from companies and governors in the other 49 states simultaneously or subsequently issuing similar orders.

 

We began to observe the negative impact as our client partners demand began to wane in all segments. We reacted as soon as March 20, 2020 when we instituted furloughs and cut administrative pay by 10% and executive pay by 15%. Other non-essential costs were targeted for reduction or discontinuance.

 

During this uncertain time, our critical priorities are the health and safety of our team members, field talent, candidates and client partners. Much of our billable workforce began working from home dependent on client instructions. Some clients in the healthcare space were still able to have employees and contractors come to their facilities due tom essential service exceptions.

 

Our administrative staff continues to be productive using our web-based applications from their homes. Furthermore, we do not believe these protocols have materially adversely impacted our internal controls, financial reporting systems or our operations.

 

However, the Company expects that the impact of this coronavirus will be materially negative in the short term. The full financial impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time but is materially affecting our business. Revenues began declining during the last two weeks of March with the pain being the highest on the EOR business with reductions of approximately 35%.

 

The extent to which the coronavirus impacts our results will depend on future developments, which are uncertain and cannot be predicted, including new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the coronavirus and the actions to contain the coronavirus or treat its impact, circumstances permitting people to return to work, among others.

 

We expect that the social distancing measures, the reduced operational status of our client partners, reductions in production at certain client partners facilities, and general business uncertainty will continue to significantly effect demand in all our segments in the second quarter, and possibly beyond.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

The following discussion and analysis of our results of operations and financial condition should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This section includes several forward-looking statements, within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. All statements that address expectations or projections about the future, including, but not limited to, statements about our plans, strategies, adequacy of resources and future financial results (such as revenue, gross profit, operating profit, cash flow), are forward-looking statements.

Because these forward-looking statements are based on estimates and assumptions that are subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control or are subject to change, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on us and our clients; our ability to access the capital markets by pursuing additional debt and equity financing to fund our business plan and expenses on terms acceptable to the Vivos Shareholders or at all; negative outcome of pending and future claims and litigation and our ability to comply with our contractual covenants, including in respect of our debt; potential loss of clients and possible rejection of our business model and/or sales methods; weakness in general economic conditions and levels of capital spending by customers in the industries we serve; weakness or volatility in the financial and capital markets, which may result in the postponement or cancellation of our customers’ projects or the inability of our customers to pay our fees; delays or reductions in U.S. government spending; credit risks associated with our customers; competitive market pressures; the availability and cost of qualified labor; our level of success in attracting, training and retaining qualified management personnel and other staff employees; changes in tax laws and other government regulations, including the impact of health care reform laws and regulations; the possibility of incurring liability for our business activities, including, but not limited to, the activities of our temporary employees; our performance on customer contracts; and government policies, legislation or judicial decisions adverse to our businesses. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. We assume no obligation to update such statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. We recommend readers to carefully review the entirety of this Quarterly Report, the “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and the other reports and documents we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), particularly our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and our Current Reports on Form 8-K.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations, our expectations regarding the future performance of our business and the other non-historical statements in the discussion and analysis are forward-looking statements.

You should read the following discussion together with our financial statements and related notes thereto and other financial information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND COMMENTS RELATED TO OPERATIONS

 

This discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

There have been no material changes or developments in the Company’s evaluation of the accounting estimates and the underlying assumptions or methodologies that it believes to be Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates as disclosed in its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

 

Management’s Discussion included in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 includes discussion of various factors and items related to the Company’s results of operations and liquidity. There have been no other significant changes in most of the factors discussed in the Form 10-K and many of the items discussed in the Form 10-K are relevant to 2019 operations; thus the reader of this report should read Management’s Discussion included in Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Revenues

 

Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $8,801 which was $500 greater than for the same period in 2019 which was $8,301. IQS revenue was the main driver of the increase as the IT staffing division delivered $798 in revenue.

 

Staffing revenue improved by 185% as the IQS IT division accounted for $798 of growth. The IQS IT staffing division improved $64 or 8% to a year ago when it was a standalone company. Media staffing grew as well by 9% to $495 as our client base expanded, and several cyclical projects had longer durations than a year ago.

 

EOR 1st quarter comparative revenues fell by $270 (4%) from $7,419 a year ago to $7,149 on March 31, 2020.

 

Cost of Revenue / Gross Profit

 

Gross Profit was $1,032 representing 12% of revenues, which was $195 greater than the gross profit in the first quarter of 2019. IQS contribution to gross profit was at $234 which represents 23% of the Company’s gross profit.

 

IQS’s margin at approximately 29% led the improvement in overall gross margin which in 2019 was approximately 10.5% before the acquisition of IQS. IQS margin increased from 28% average in 2019 to 29%, can be attributed to Maslow’s benefit structure that was less costly.

General and Administrative

 

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were $1,091 as compared to $654 in the comparable period in 2019. The increase in comparative three-month periods is due to costs associated with being a public company and higher legal costs which together totaled approximately $452 of the difference. $131 of the remaining $202 difference was in IQS administrative salaries and other operating costs such as rent.

 

Interest Expense

 

The Company recognized interest expense in the amount of $138 during the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $84 during the prior year period. The increase is directly attributed to $850 in convertible notes being carried and approximately $10 in additional interest Maslow had to incur for IQS factoring in the first quarter. It was noted in our 10-K that Vivos’ sale of IQS to Company included an undisclosed lien which Vivos refused to settle after it became known. Consequently, the Company had to continue to use Vivos’ higher cost factoring facility at approximately 16% as opposed to Maslow’s at an approximate 1st quarter APR of 7.65%.

 

Net Income Loss

 

The Company incurred a net loss in first quarter of $237 compared to net profit in 2019 of $77. Corporate costs much of which are public company related totaling $477, more than accounts for the variance.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash generated from operations via borrowings under our Factoring Facility with Triumph and receivables enabling access to the 7% unfactored portion. Because certain large clients have changed their payment practices announcing 60 and 90 day terms amounting to a unilateral extension to contractual terms by 30-60 days, we can be adversely impacted since Triumph, and most other factoring institutions no longer provide credit after an account obligor pays 30 or more days from their contractual terms.

 

Our primary use of cash are for payments to field talent, corporate and staff employees, related payroll liabilities, operating expenses, public company costs, including but not limited to general and professional liability and directors and officers liability insurance premiums, legal fees, filing fees, auditor and accounting fees, stock transfer services, and board compensation; followed by cash factoring and other borrowing interest; cash taxes; and debt payments.

 

The Company expected to have promissory note for $3,000 repaid by Naveen Doki at the end of 2019. In the first quarter the Company continued to pursue repayment as the impact of not having that cash returned to the Company coupled approximately $900 more a year in costs associated with being a public company and the inability to tap the capital markets due to not having any available shares, resulted in cash challenges.

 

Then in March 2020, a national, lockdown began to unfold due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This resulted in a significant loss of business starting the last week of March, resulting in a reduction of billing by approximately 35%.

 

The Company responded swiftly on March 20, 2020 by taking steps to reduce its expenses and improve the Company’s liquidity, including the furlough of six (6) general and administrative personnel and instituting pay-cuts across the board with executives taking a larger cut which commenced. Executives, including the Company’s CEO and CFO have had their salaries reduced by fifteen percent.

 

On May 5, 2020, MMG received the PPP Loan. . The Paycheck Protection Flexibility Act, was passed by Congress and signed by the President June 3rd, 2020. By utilizing these funds for their intended purpose of payroll, with forgiveness potential over first 24 weeks, the Company has been able to free up cash to pay other expenses and obligations The Company intends to use the extended 24-week period to restore our workforce levels and wages to pre-pandemic levels to the extent we can in order to maximize achievement of a high percentage of forgiveness.

Net cash provided by operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $972 compared to $1,199 in the comparable period of 2019. The change was attributable to an increase in legal and costs associated with being a public company during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

 

In February 2020, Maslow took out a $250 6-month term loan from Triumph at 10% APR, in order to meet its cash obligations. In early March the loan principal was increased by $75 with the remaining term extended 26 weeks to September. On April 7, 2020t, in the face of the COVID 19 lockdown, Triumph offered a 2-month payment holiday and to extend the note payment, which was ultimately agreed to be extended until February 2021.

Not applicable.

 

Item 4. Risk Controls and Procedures

 

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The President and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report were effective such that the information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 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 the President and Chief Financial Officer to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.
