PART I

Item 1. Business

General

iSign Solutions Inc. (the “Company” or “iSign”), was incorporated in Delaware in October 1986. iSign is a leading supplier of digital transaction management (DTM) software enabling the paperless, secure and cost-effective management and authentication of document-based transactions. iSign’s solutions encompass a wide array of functionality and services, including electronic signatures, simple-to-complex workflow management and various options for biometric authentication. These solutions are available across virtually all enterprise, desktop and mobile environments as a seamlessly integrated platform for both ad-hoc and fully automated transactions. iSign’s platform can be deployed both on premise and as a cloud-based (“SaaS”) service, with the ability to easily transition between deployment models. The Company is headquartered in San Jose, California.

For the year ended December 31, 2019, total revenue was $844, a decrease of $73, or 8%, compared to total revenue of $917 in the prior year. For the year ended December 31, 2019, software product revenue was $195, a decrease of $10, or 5%, compared to product revenue of $205 in the prior year. Maintenance revenue for the year ended December 31, 2019 was $649, a decrease of $63, or 9%, compared to maintenance revenue of $712 in the prior year. The changes are primarily attributable to the Company’s efforts to restructure its operations in favor of a partner-generated recurring revenue model.

For the year ended December 31, 2019, the net loss was $1,086, an increase of $59, or 6%, compared to $1,027 in the prior year. For the year ended December 31, 2019, non-cash charges, consisting of interest expense, warrant expense and the amortization of debt discount were $369, an increase of $70, or 23%, compared to $299 in the prior year. For the year ended December 31, 2019, operating expenses were $1,562, a decrease of $127, or 8%, compared to operating expenses of $1,689 for the prior year. The decrease in operating expense resulted from reductions in full time employees and expenses associated with the Company’s efforts to restructure its operations in favor of a partner-generated recurring revenue model.

Core Technologies

The Company’s core technologies can be referred to as “transaction-enabling” and “business process work flow” technologies. These technologies include various forms of electronic signature methods, such as handwritten, biometric, click-to-sign and others, as well as technologies related to signature verification, authentication, cryptography and the logging of audit trails to prove signers’ intent. These technologies enable the appending of secure, legal and regulatory compliant electronic signatures coupled with an enhanced user experience, all at a fraction of the time and cost required by traditional, paper-based processes for signature capture.

Products

The Company’s enterprise-class SignatureOne^® and iSign^® suite of electronic signature solutions enable businesses to implement truly paperless, electronic signature-driven business processes. The aggregate of the software functionality enabling the digitization of end-to-end work flow processes is sometimes referred to as “digital transaction management” (DTM). Many applications provide electronic forms and allow users to fill-in information, but most of these applications still require users to print out a paper copy for a handwritten, ink signature. Solutions powered by iSign products allow legally binding electronic signatures to be added to digital documents, eliminating the need for paper to memorialize the completion, approval or authentication of the transaction. This allows users to reduce transaction times and processing costs.

The SignatureOne^® and iSign^® suite of products includes the following:

SignatureOne^®Ceremony^® Server

The SignatureOne^® Ceremony^® Server (“Ceremony Server”) provides a highly secure, scalable, patent-protected and streamlined electronic signature solution. Its flexible, easy-to-configure and agile workflow can be rapidly integrated via standard Web services to become an ultimate and cost efficient endpoint in true straight-through processing (the complete removal of paper from business processes) and to facilitate end-to-end management of multi-party approvals for PDF and XHTML documents. The Ceremony Server contains iSign’s core e-signature engine and signature ceremony management tools, and can be seamlessly integrated with numerous ancillary products. Its key features include:

	●	Consent/disclosure management – integral part of audit record; easily reproducible in the event of a dispute;

	●	Configurable document presentment – signatory receipt, access and viewing of document tracked in audit trail;

	●	Multi-party ceremonies – complex processes, simplified; allows for dynamic, multi-channel workflow changes, including remote, face-to-face and mobile scenarios;

	●	Supports complex business rules and dynamic user behaviors;

	●	Configurable branding and workflow;

	●	Flexible tracking and reporting – includes event notification service

	●	Extensive audit trail – embedded in individual document in a tamper evident digital seal; and

●

Support for multiple signature methods – click-to-sign; biometric; and others.

iSign^®Console™	The iSign^® Console™ (“Console”) leverages the Ceremony Server’s core signature engine and is ideal for organizations looking for a standalone electronic signature solution. Through its intuitive graphical interface, the Console allows users to upload documents for signature, select signers and signature methods, and manage and enforce document workflow for routing, reviewing, signing and notifications. The Console offers a secure and intuitive solution that requires no integration and is available on-premise or in the cloud.

iSign® Enterprise	iSign® Enterprise incorporates the features and function of the Ceremony Server and the Console.

iSign^®Family	The growing suite of iSign^® products and service includes iSign^® Mobile (for signing on iOS and Android mobile devices), iSign^® Forms (for integrated use of templates and forms), and iSign^® Live (iSign’s patent-pending co-browsing solution for simultaneous browsing signature ceremonies).

Sign-it^®	Sign-it^®is a family of desktop software products that enable the real-time capture of electronic and digital signatures, as well as their verification and binding within a standard set of applications, including Adobe Acrobat and Microsoft Word, web-based applications using HTML, XML and XHTML, and custom applications for .NET, C# and similar development environments for the enterprise market. The Sign-it^® family of products combines the strengths of biometrics, and other forms of electronic signatures, with cryptography in a patented process that insures the creation of documents containing legally compliant electronic signatures. These signatures have the same legal standing as a traditional so-called wet signature on paper and are created pursuant to the Electronic Signature in National and Global Commerce Act, as well as other related legislation and regulations. With Sign-it^® products, organizations wishing to process electronic forms, requiring varying levels of security, can reduce the cost and other inefficiencies inherent with paper documents by adding electronic signature technologies to their workflow solutions.

iSign^®Toolkits

The iSign^® suite of application development tools for electronic signature capture, encryption and verification in custom applications and web-based processes captures and analyzes the image, speed, stroke sequence and acceleration of a person’s handwritten electronic signature. This capability offers an effective and inexpensive solution for immediate authentication of handwritten signatures. iSign^® toolkits also store certain forensic elements of an electronic signature for use in determining whether a person’s electronic signature is legally valid. They also include software libraries for industry standard encryption and hashing to protect a user’s signature, as well as the data captured in the Ceremony^®process.

Research and Development

Our research and development effort is focused on the development, advancement and refinement of our core products and the development of new products. In addition, our research and development team is responsible for the continuous quality measurement and assurance of both existing and new products. We conduct research on software technology, related computer hardware, competitive offerings and alternative solution approaches to develop appropriate product and service offerings for our target markets. Our research and development efforts are often aimed at assisting clients and licensees in further streamlining new and existing workflow processes that our software solutions support and at ensuring that we meet or exceed industry standards and competitive offerings. We provide certain customization and integration services to our clients, including software integration partners and enterprise customers. These efforts are conducted by our team in San Jose, California, supported by contracted staff, including offshore engineers.

We believe that our software technologies, platforms and products are now competitive and, while research and development activities will remain at the core of our operations, we intend, going forward, to invest an increasing amount of our resources in sales and marketing activities.

Our research and development expense was $630 for the year ended December 30, 2019 and $754 for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Material Customers

Historically, the Company’s revenue has been derived from hundreds of customers, but a significant percentage of the revenue has been attributable to a limited number of customers. Four customers, as described in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial statements, accounted for 12%, 17%, 22% and 21%, respectively, of total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Seasonality of Business

The Company believes that the sale of its products is not subject to seasonal fluctuations.

Backlog

Backlog was approximately $416 and $317 at December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, representing advanced payments on product and service maintenance agreements. At December 31, 2019 there is $70 of long term deferred maintenance that will be recognized in the first 3 months of 2021. The remaining backlog is expected to be recognized over the next twelve months.

Competition

We believe that our primary competitive advantages include the following:

●

Customer options and platform flexibility: Unlike most of our competitors, we offer many flexible configuration options for enterprise clients to address many variants of complex business work flows without the need for costly and time-consuming customization. These solution configurations can be rapidly and seamlessly integrated into a variety of enterprise technology environments.

●

Software deployment options: Unlike most of our competitors, our software solutions are available as an on demand, private cloud-based software as a service, and on the customer’s premises, which is an important feature for most of our large enterprise clients for compliance, security and control reasons.

●

Lower cost structure: Through our technology, sales and marketing partners, including Cegedim SA, we believe we offer a lower relative cost structure and higher operating margin than most of our larger competitors.

Currently, our primary competition for basic click-to-sign electronic signatures includes Adobe EchoSign, DocuSign and VASCO Data Security International Inc. We view the balance of the U.S. market as fragmented with a variety of smaller competitors focused on the consumer and small business markets rather than enterprise organizations.

Employees

As of December 31, 2019, the Company employed six full-time employees and eight independent contractors. The Company has established longstanding strategic relationships that allow it to rapidly access product development and deployment capabilities that could be required to address most customer requirements. None of the Company’s employees are party to any collective bargaining agreements. We believe our employee relations are good.

Geographic Areas

For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, sales in the United States as a percentage of total sales was 80% and 90%, respectively. At December 31, 2019 and 2018, long-lived assets located in the United States were $13 and $7, respectively. There were no long-lived assets located elsewhere as of December 31, 2019 and 2018.

Overview and Recent Developments

The Company is a leading supplier of DTM software enabling the paperless, secure and cost-effective management and authentication of document-based transactions. iSign’s solutions encompass a wide array of functionality and services, including electronic signatures, simple-to-complex workflow management and various options for biometric authentication. These solutions are available across virtually all enterprise, desktop and mobile environments as a seamlessly integrated platform for both ad-hoc and fully automated transactions. The Company’s products and services result in legally binding transactions that are compliant with applicable laws and regulations and that can provide a higher level of security than paper-based processes. The Company has been a leading supplier of enterprise software solutions within the financial services and insurance industries and has made available to its customers significant expense reduction by enabling a completely electronic document and workflow process, as well as the resulting reduction in mailing, scanning, filing and other costs related to the use of paper.

The Company was incorporated in Delaware in October 1986. Except for the year ended December 31, 2004, in each year since its inception the Company has incurred losses. For the two-year period ended December 31, 2019, the net loss aggregated approximately $2,113, and at December 31, 2019, the Company’s accumulated deficit was approximately $134,675.

For the year ended December 31, 2019, total revenue was $844, a decrease of $73, or 8%, compared to total revenue of $917 in the prior year. The decrease in revenue is primarily attributable to the Company’s efforts to restructure its operations in favor of partner-generated recurring revenue.

For the year ended December 31, 2019, operating expenses were $1,562, a decrease of $127, or 8%, compared to operating expenses of $1,689 in the prior year. The decrease in operating expenses resulted from changes made in the prior year to the Company’s operating expense structure, which changes were made in connection with the Company’s efforts to tailor its operations in favor of partner-generated recurring revenue. For the year ended December 31, 2019, the loss from operations was $718, a decrease of $54, or 7%, compared to a loss from operations of $772 in the prior year.

In October 2019, the Company received, from an investor, an advance in the amount of $33 in cash against certain accounts receivable of the Company. Upon collection of the invoice, the Company would repay the advance to the lenders on a pro rata basis together with a 5% advance fee. The receivable was collected and $33 of the advances were repaid in November 2019, along with $2 in advance fees per the agreement. The advance fee was recorded as interest expense in the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2019.

The Company recorded $36 in debt discount amortization for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019 related to the debt financings.

In February 2019, the Company issued warrants to purchase 985 shares of common stock to employees and consultants associated with their unpaid salaries and consulting fees. The warrants are only exercisable on a cashless basis if the warrant holder elects to exchange their deferred salaries and consulting fees. The Company ascribed a value of $211 to the warrants which is booked as a discount to other long-term liabilities in the balance sheet. The value of the warrants will be amortized to warrant expense in the statement of operations over the life of the warrants. The warrants have a three year life and an exercise price of $0.50 per share.

The Company recorded $65 in warrant amortization expense for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019.

New Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 1, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included under Part IV, Item 15 of this report on Form 10-K.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. The amounts of assets and liabilities reported in its balance sheets and the amounts of revenue and expenses reported for each period presented are affected by these estimates and assumptions that are used for, but not limited to, revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, intangible asset impairments, fair value of financial instruments, stock based compensation and valuation allowances on deferred tax assets. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The following critical accounting policies are significantly affected by judgments, assumptions and estimates used by the Company’s management in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

Stock based Compensation: Stock-based compensation expense is based on the estimated grant date fair value of the portion of stock-based payment awards that are ultimately expected to vest during the period. The grant date fair value of stock-based awards to employees and directors is calculated using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. Forfeitures of share-based payment awards are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. Forfeitures are estimated and it is assumed no dividends will be declared. The estimated fair value of stock-based compensation awards to employees is amortized on an accrual basis over the vesting period of the options.

Valuation of equity warrants: The Company values warrants issued using the Black-Scholes-Merton pricing model.

Derivatives: The Company follows the relevant accounting guidance and records derivative instruments (including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts) in the consolidated balance sheet as either an asset or a liability measured at their fair value, with changes in the derivative’s fair value recognized currently in earnings. The Company values these derivative securities under the fair value method at the end of each reporting period (quarter), and their value is marked-to-market at the end of each reporting period with the gain or loss recorded in earnings. The Company continues to revalue these instruments each quarter to reflect their current value in light of the current market price of our Common Stock. The Company used a simulated probability valuation model to value warrants containing embedded derivative instruments. Determining the appropriate fair-value model and calculating the fair value of such warrants requires considerable judgment. Any change in the estimates (specifically, probabilities) used may cause the value to be higher or lower than that reported. The assumptions used in the model require significant judgment by management and include the following: volatility, expected term, risk-free interest rate, dividends, and warrant holders’ expected rate of return, reset provisions based on expected future financings, projected stock prices, and probability of exercise.

The conversion option included within the unsecured convertible promissory notes is accounted for as a derivative liability at its estimated fair value. The derivative is subject to re-measurement at the end of each reporting period, with changes in fair value recognized as a component of interest and other income, in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company will continue to adjust the liability for changes in fair value until the earlier of the conversion or maturity of the unsecured convertible promissory note purchase agreements.

Revenue: The Company’s principal sources of revenues are from the sale of software products, SOW (engineering services), annual software product, and software maintenance contracts. The Company also derives revenue from customers based on the numbers of signatures produced by the Company’s signature software solutions imbedded within the customer’s product.

Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized using the following five steps:

a) Identify the contract(s) with a customer;

b) Identify the performance obligations (a good or service) in the contract;

c) Determine the transaction price; for each performance obligation within the contract

d) Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

e) Recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

Contracts contain performance obligation(s) for the transfer goods or services to a customer. The performance obligations are a promise (or a group of promises) that are distinct. The transaction price is the amount of consideration a Company expects to receive from a customer in exchange for satisfying the performance obligations specified in the contract.

Contracts may contain one or more performance obligations (a good or service). Performance obligations are accounted for separately if they are distinct. A good or service is distinct if the customer can benefit from the good or service either on its own or together with other resources readily available to the customer, and the good or service is distinct in the context of the contract. Otherwise performance obligations will be combined with other promised goods or services until the Company identifies a bundle of goods or services that is distinct.

The transaction price is allocated to all separate performance obligations within the contract based on their relative standalone selling prices (“SSP”). The best evidence for SSP is the price the Company would charge for that good or service when sold separately in similar circumstances to similar customers. If goods or services are not always sold separately, the Company would use the best estimate of SSP in the allocation of transaction price.

The transaction price reflects the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services, which may include an estimate of variable consideration to the extent that it is probable of not being subject to significant reversals in the future based on the Company’s experience with similar arrangements. The transaction price also reflects the impact of the time value of money if there is a significant financing component present in an arrangement. The transaction price excludes amounts collected on behalf of third parties, such as sales taxes.

Revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies each performance obligation identified within the contract by transferring control of the promised goods or services to the customer. Goods or services can transfer at a point in time or over time depending on the nature of the arrangement.

Deferred revenue represents the Company’s obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Company has received consideration from the customer. Our payment terms do not vary by the type of products or services offered. The term between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company recognized $387 of revenue that was included in deferred revenue at the beginning of the period.

Contract assets exist when the Company has satisfied a performance obligation but does not have an unconditional right to consideration (e.g., because the entity first must satisfy another performance obligation in the contract before it is entitled to invoice the customer).

The Company transfers all of its goods and services electronically with the associated costs recorded in cost of sales in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Software. Revenue from the sale of software products is recognized when the control is transferred. For most of the Company’s software product sales, the control is transferred at the time the product is electronically transferred because the customer has significant risks and rewards of ownership of the asset and the Company has a present right to payment at that time.

Statement of Work (SOW). Revenue from SOW (engineering services) is recognized upon completion, transfer and satisfaction of the performance obligations identified with in the contract by the customer.

Transactional revenue. For transactional type contracts, the Company’s performance obligations are met upon transfer of the software master to the customer. Revenue from transactional customers is recognized as the customer reports the number of units (signatures) rendered over the specified reporting period, generally three months.

Recurring Product revenue. The company has revenue contracts that allow the customer to utilize the Company’s signature software on an annual basis. Maintenance and support costs are included in the annual price to the customer. The customer has the right to renew or cancel the contract on an annual basis. Recurring revenue is recognized on a straight line basis over the contract period, generally one year.

Maintenance and support. Maintenance and support services are satisfied ratably over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of the services. As a result, support and maintenance revenue is recognized on a straight line basis over the period of the contract.

Arrangements with Multiple Performance Obligations. The Company has, from time to time, revenue arrangements that include multiple performance obligations. The Company allocates transaction price to all separate performance obligations based on their relative standalone selling prices (“SSP”). The Company’s best evidence for SSP is the price the Company would charge for that good or service when the Company sells it separately in similar circumstances to similar customers. If goods or services are not always sold separately, the Company uses the best estimate of SSP in the allocation of transaction price. The Company’s process for determining best estimate of SSP involves management’s judgment, and considers multiple factors including, but not limited to, major product groupings, gross margin objectives and pricing practices. Pricing practices may vary over time, depending upon the unique facts and circumstances related to each deliverable. If the facts and circumstances underlying the factors considered change or should future facts and circumstances lead the Company to consider additional factors, the Company’s best estimate of SSP may also change.

Contract costs. The incremental costs of obtaining a contract are capitalized if the costs are expected to be recovered. Costs that are recognized as assets are amortized straight-line over the period as the related goods or services transfer to the customer. Costs incurred to fulfill a contract are capitalized if they are not covered by other relevant guidance, relate directly to a contract, will be used to satisfy future performance obligations, and are expected to be recovered.

There was no adjustment to the opening balance of accumulated deficit as of January 1, 2018 from adopting Topic 606.

Significant Judgments. The Company may exercise significant judgment when determining whether products and services are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately versus together.

Practical Expedients and Exemptions. Under Topic 606, incremental costs of obtaining a contract, such as sales commissions, are capitalized if they are expected to be recovered. Expensing these costs as they are incurred is not permitted unless they qualify for the practical expedient. The Company elected the practical expedient to expense the costs to obtain a contract as incurred when the expected amortization period is one year or less.

The Company elected the practical expedient under Topic 606 to not disclose the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations, since the majority of the Company’s arrangements have original expected durations of one year or less, or the invoicing corresponds to the value of the Company’s performance completed to date.

The Company elected the practical expedient that allows the Company to not assess a contract for a significant financing component if the period between the customer’s payment and the transfer of the goods or services is one year or less.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts: The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on the Company’s assessment of the collectability of specific customer accounts and an assessment of international, political and economic risk as well as the aging of the accounts receivable. If there is a change in actual defaults from the Company’s historical experience, the Company’s estimates of recoverability of amounts due could be affected and the Company would adjust the allowance accordingly.

Long-lived assets: The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets, including intangible assets at least annually or whenever circumstances or events indicate such assets might be impaired. The Company would recognize an impairment charge in the event the net book value of such assets exceeded the future undiscounted cash flows attributable to such assets. Estimation of future cash flows from the products considers the following additional factors:

●

legal, regulatory or contractual provisions known to the Company that limit the useful life of any product technology to less than the assigned useful life;

●

whether the Company needs to incur material costs or make modifications in order for it to continue to be able to realize the benefits afforded by the product technologies;

●

effects of obsolescence or significant competitive pressure on the Company’s current or future products are expected to reduce the anticipated cash flow from the products;

●

demand for products utilizing the technology will diminish, remain stable or increase; and

●

whether the current markets for the products based on the technology will remain constant or will change over the useful lives assigned to the technologies.

Customer Base: To date, the Company’s electronic signature revenue has been derived primarily from financial service industry end-users and from resellers and channel partners serving the financial service industry primarily in North America, the ASEAN Region and Europe. The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers and does not require collateral. The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses. Historically, such losses have been within the range of management’s expectations.

Cost of sales: Cost of sales includes direct engineering labor and overhead for specific revenue based projects initiated by customers and maintenance projects specific to customer needs, along with third party services related to the Company’s transactional based revenues.

Research and Development Costs: Research and development costs are charged as expense as incurred.

Net Operating Loss Carry-forwards: Utilization of the Company's net operating losses may be subject to an annual limitation due to the ownership change limitations under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code and similar state provisions. As a result, a portion of the Company's net operating loss carry-forwards may not be available to offset future taxable income. The Company has provided a full valuation allowance for deferred tax assets at December 31, 2019 of approximately $16,858 based upon the Company's history of losses.

Segments: The Company reports its financial results in one segment.

Results of Operations – Years Ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018

Revenue

For the year ended December 31, 2019, total revenue was $844, a decrease of $73, or 8%, compared to total revenue of $917 in the prior year. For the year ended December 31, 2019, software product revenue was $195, a decrease of $10, or 5%, compared to product revenue of $205 in the prior year. Maintenance revenue for the year ended December 31, 2019, was $649, a decrease of $63, or 9%, compared to maintenance revenue of $712 in the prior year. The decrease in product revenue is primarily attributable to the Company’s efforts to restructure its operations in favor of partner-generated recurring revenue, while existing customers continue to renew ongoing maintenance on new and previously purchased products.

Cost of Sales

For the year ended December 31, 2019, cost of sales was $121, a decrease of $20, or 14%, compared to cost of sales of $141 in the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in direct engineering costs associated with the mix of engineering Statement of Work (“SOW”) and software product revenue during the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to the prior year.

Operating Expenses

Research and Development Expenses

For the year ended December 31, 2019, research and development expenses were $630, a decrease of $124, or 16%, compared to research and development expenses of $754 in the prior year. Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs, outside contract engineering, maintenance items, and allocated facility expenses. The most significant factors contributing to the decrease in research and development expenses was a decrease in stock option expense, a reduction in outside engineering expense and the reduction in allocated facilities expenses due to the move to smaller facilities half way through the prior year. These reductions were partially offset by a decrease in direct labor transfers to cost of sales due to the decrease in revenues. For the year ended December 31, 2019, total research and development expenses before IT and cost of sales allocations were $750, a decrease of $184, or 20%, compared to $934 of total research and development expenses before allocations in the prior year.

Sales and Marketing Expenses

For the year ended December 31, 2019, sales and marketing expenses were $109, an increase of $10, or 10%, compared to sales and marketing expenses of $99 in the prior year. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in commissions related to the renewal of certain maintenance contracts during the year.

General and Administrative Expenses

For the year ended December 31, 2019, administrative expenses were $702, an increase of $7, or 1%, compared to administrative expenses of $695 in the prior year. Salaries and related expenses increased $22, or 3%, compared to the prior year. All other overhead expenses incurred during the year decreased $15, or 3%.

Other Income (Expense), Net

Other income (expense), net, for the year ended December 31, 2019, was an expense of $63, an increase of $109, or 237%, compared to income of $46 in the prior year. The increase is due primarily to $65 in amortization expense of warrants issued in February 2019 related to long term deferred compensation.

Interest Expense

For the year ended December 31, 2019, related party interest expense was $74, an increase of $40, or 118%, compared to related party interest expense of $34 in the prior year. For the year ended December 31, 2019, other interest expense was $194, an increase of $54, or 39%, compared to other interest expense of $140 in the prior year. The increase in interest expense is primarily due to borrowings initiated during the last six months of the prior year, accruing interest for the full twelve months ended December 31, 2019, and an increase in the interest rate on unsecured notes from 6% to 10% for the year ended December 31, 2019.

For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company recorded $36 in debt discount amortization associated with its short-term borrowings, $10 of which is attributable to related parties and $26 of which is attributable to other investors, compared to $125 in the prior year, $35 of which is attributable to related parties and $90 of which is attributable to other investors. The decrease in debt discount amortization was primarily due to the extension of the due date of the notes from December 31, 2018 to December 31, 2019. The due date of the notes was extended again in November 2019 to December 31, 2020.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $25 at December 31, 2019, compared to $335 at December 31, 2018.

The cash used in operations was primarily attributable to the net loss of $1,086. This amount was partially offset by non-cash depreciation and amortization charges of $104 and stock-based employee compensation of $189.

Cash out flows for the acquisition of property and equipment for the year ended December 31, 2019 was $9.

The Company received an advance of $33 in October 2019 against certain accounts receivable. The advance was repaid upon collection of the receivable in November of 2019 along with an advance fee of $2. The advance fee was charged to interest expense in November 2019.

Accounts receivable were $61 at December 31, 2019, a decrease of $23, or 27%, compared to accounts receivable of $84 at December 31, 2018. Accounts receivable at December 31, 2018 was net of $1 in allowances provided for potentially uncollectible accounts. The decrease in accounts receivable is primarily attributable to a lower number of orders billed in the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2019 compared to the prior year.

Prepaid expenses and other current assets were $22 at December 31, 2019, a decrease of $24, or 52%, compared to prepaid expenses and other current assets of $46 at December 31, 2018. The decrease is primarily due to the transfer to cost of sales of prepaid engineering expense associated with current year revenue.

Short-term debt was $2,246 net of $3 in discounts at December 31, 2019. The Company negotiated an extension of the due date of the notes to December 31, 2020.

Accounts payable were $1,196 at December 31, 2019, a decrease of $84, or 7%, compared to $1,280 at December 31, 2018. The decrease is due to cost cutting efforts by the Company.

Accrued compensation was $71 at December 31, 2019, a decrease of $10 or 12%, compared to $81 at December 31, 2018. The decrease was due primarily to the payout of deferred compensation.

Other accrued liabilities including the long term portion were $1,483 at December 31, 2019, compared to $1,189 at December 31, 2018, an increase of $294, or 25%. The increase is primarily attributable to the accrual of certain franchise taxes and professional service fees, partially offset by the unamortized value of warrants issued associated with the long term deferred compensation of $146.

Deferred revenue, including the long-term portion, was $416 at December 31, 2019, an increase of $99, or 31%, compared to deferred revenue of $317 at December 31, 2018. The increase is primarily due to the increase in the collection of maintenance billed in the fourth quarter of 2019.

Financing Transactions

Advances:

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk. Any investments in fixed income securities are subject to interest rate risk and will fall in value if the market interest rates increase. The Company attempts to limit this exposure by investing primarily in short-term securities.

Foreign Currency Risk. The Company operates a joint venture in China and from time-to-time could make certain capital equipment or other purchases denominated in foreign currencies. As a result, the Company’s cash flows and earnings could be exposed to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. The Company would attempt to limit any such exposure through operational strategies and generally has not hedged currency exposure.

Future Results and Stock Price Risk. The Company’s stock price may be subject to significant volatility. The public stock markets have experienced significant volatility in stock prices in recent years. The stock prices of technology companies have experienced particularly high volatility, including, at times, severe price changes that are unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of such companies. The trading price of the Company’s Common Stock could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to, among other factors, quarter-to-quarter variations in operating results, announcements of technological innovations or new products by the Company or its competitors, competitor consolidation in the industry, announcements of new strategic relationships by the Company or its competitors, general conditions in the computer software industry or the global economy generally, or market volatility unrelated to the Company’s business and operating results. The impact and severity of the above factors could be exacerbated by the Company’s small size, public float and a lack of market liquidity for its Common Stock.

Risks and Uncertainties. In December 2019, an outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) originated in Wuhan, China and has since spread to a number of other countries, including the U.S. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization characterized COVID-19 as a pandemic. In addition, several states in the U.S., including California, where the Company is headquartered, have declared a state of emergency. The COVID-19 outbreak is disrupting supply chains and affecting production and sales across a wide range of industries. The extent of the impact of COVID-19 on our operational and financial performance will depend on certain developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, impact on our customers, employees and vendors all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. At this point, the extent to which COVID-19 may impact our financial condition or results of operations is uncertain.

Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

The Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, and for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2019, begin on page F-1 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, and are incorporated into this item by reference.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosures

None

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company carried out an evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to paragraph (b) of Rule 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Based on that evaluation the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act (1) is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and (2) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

The Company does not expect that its disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all error and all fraud. A control procedure, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control procedures are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control procedures, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The Company considered these limitations during the development of its disclosure controls and procedures, and will continually reevaluate them to ensure they provide reasonable assurance that such controls and procedures are effective.

Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect transactions and dispositions of assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.

Management has assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria established in “Internal Control, Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in 2013. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

In performing this assessment, management identified the following material weaknesses:

As a small company with limited resources that are mainly focused on the development and sales of software products and services, iSign does not employ a sufficient number of staff in its finance department to possess an optimal segregation of duties or to provide optimal levels of oversight. This has resulted in certain audit adjustments and management believes that there may be a possibility for a material misstatement to occur in future periods while it employs the current number of personnel in its finance department.

Based on its assessment, our management concluded that, as of December 31, 2019, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective. Management believes that the identified weaknesses have not affected our ability to present GAAP-compliant financial statements in this Form 10-K. During the year-end financial statement close the Company was able to adjust its financial records to properly present its financial statements and we were therefore able to present GAAP-compliant financial statements. Management does not believe that its weakness with respect to its procedures and controls have had a pervasive effect upon our financial reporting due to our ability to make the necessary reconciling adjustments to our financial statements.

Management’s Remediation Initiatives

Management conducts a number of activities to address the material weaknesses noted above, including but not limited to the following:

●

Key managers and accounting personnel work closely with our independent audit firm in evaluating our progress in remediating our material weaknesses with oversight by the audit committee;

●

Evaluate control procedures on an ongoing basis, and, where possible, modify those control procedures to improve oversight;

●

Evaluate, and, where possible, employ additional third party resources that can provide oversight support within the Company’s budget constraints; and

●

As the Company grows its business and the cash flow necessary to hire additional accounting personnel, management expects to pursue and implement such additional hires.

Elements of our remediation plan can only be accomplished over time and we can offer no assurances that those initiatives will ultimately have the intended effects. Ultimately, revenue growth and performance improvements are the most likely avenue to greater resources that will improve the Company’s internal controls.

Management will continue the process of reviewing existing controls, procedures and responsibilities to more closely identify financial reporting risks and the required controls to address them. Key control and compensating control procedures will be developed to ensure that material weaknesses are properly addressed and related financial reporting risks are mitigated. Periodic control validation and testing will also be implemented to ensure that controls continue to operate consistently and as designed.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended December 31, 2019 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Board of Directors and Stockholders of

iSign Solutions Inc.

San Jose, California

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of iSign Solutions Inc. and subsidiary (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, changes in stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2019, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2019, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s significant recurring losses and accumulated deficit raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2014.

1. Nature of Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

The Company:

The Company is a leading supplier of digital transaction management (DTM) software enabling the paperless, secure and cost-effective management of document-based transactions. iSign’s solutions encompass a wide array of functionality and services, including electronic signatures, biometric authentication and simple-to-complex workflow management. These solutions are available across virtually all enterprise, desktop and mobile environments as a seamlessly integrated platform for both ad-hoc and fully automated transactions. The Company’s products and services result in legally binding transactions that are compliant with applicable laws and regulations and that can provide a higher level of security than paper-based processes. The Company has been a leading supplier of enterprise software solutions within the financial services and insurance industries and has delivered significant expense reduction by enabling complete document and workflow automation and the resulting reduction in mailing, scanning, filing and other costs related to the use of paper.

The Company’s research and development activities have given rise to numerous technologies and products. The Company’s core DTM technologies include various forms of electronic signatures, such as handwritten biometric, click-to-sign and others, as well as signature verification, cryptography and the logging of audit trails to show signers’ intent. These technologies can enable secure, legal and regulatory compliant electronic transactions that can enhance customer experience at a fraction of the time and cost required by traditional, paper-based processes. The Company’s products include SignatureOne^®Ceremony^™Server, Sign-it^® and the iSign^® family of products and services.

Going concern and management plans:

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. Except for 2004, the Company has incurred significant losses since its inception and, at December 31, 2019, the Company’s accumulated deficit was $134,675. The Company has primarily met its working capital needs through the sale of debt and equity securities. As of December 31, 2019, the Company’s cash balance was $25. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in securing adequate capital resources to fund planned operations or that any additional funds will be available to the Company when needed, or if available, will be available on favorable terms or in amounts required by the Company. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital resources to fund operations, it may be required to delay, scale back or eliminate some or all of its operations, which may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and ability to operate as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

In December 2019, an outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) originated in Wuhan, China and has since spread to a number of other countries, including the U.S. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization characterized COVID-19 as a pandemic. In addition, several states in the U.S., including California, where the Company is headquartered, have declared a state of emergency. The COVID-19 outbreak is disrupting supply chains and affecting production and sales across a wide range of industries. The extent of the impact of COVID-19 on our operational and financial performance will depend on certain developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, impact on our customers, employees and vendors all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. At this point, the extent to which COVID-19 may impact our financial condition or results of operations is uncertain.

Basis of consolidation:

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. All amounts shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements are in thousands of dollars except per share amounts.

F-8

1. Nature of Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued):

Use of estimates:

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 consolidated financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Fair value measures:

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an ordinary transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Our policy on fair value measures requires us to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The policy establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The policy prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1: Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

Level 3: Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value, whether recurring or non-recurring, at December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, and the fair value calculation input hierarchy level that we have determined applies to each asset and liability category.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments:

The Company carries financial instruments on the consolidated balance sheet at the fair value of the instruments as of the consolidated balance sheet date. At the end of each period, management assesses the fair value of each instrument and adjusts the carrying value to reflect its assessment. At December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the carrying values of accounts receivable and accounts payable approximated their fair values.

Treasury Stock:

Shares of common stock returned to, or repurchased by, the Company are recorded at cost and are included as a separate component of stockholders’ equity (deficit).

Under the cost method, the gross cost of the shares reacquired is charged to a contra equity account titled treasury stock. The equity accounts that were credited for the original share issuance (Common Stock, additional paid-in capital, etc.) remain intact. When the treasury shares are reissued, proceeds in excess of cost are credited to additional paid-in capital. Any deficiency is charged to accumulated deficit (unless additional paid-in capital from previous treasury share transactions exists, in which case the deficiency is charged to that account, with any excess charged to accumulated deficit).

F-9

1. Nature of Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued):

Derivatives:

The Company, from time to time, enters into transactions which contain conversion privileges, the settlement of which may entitle the holder or the Company to settle the obligation(s) by issuance of Company securities. The Company applies a two-step model in determining whether a financial instrument or an embedded feature is indexed to an issuer’s own stock and thus able to qualify for the scope exception. The fair value of each derivative is estimated each reporting period.

Cash and cash equivalents:

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities at the date of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents, at December 31, consisted of the following:

	2019		2018
Cash in bank	$	25	$	335
Cash and cash equivalents	$	25	$	335

Concentrations of credit risk:

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents, and accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents with various financial institutions. This diversification of risk is consistent with Company policy to maintain liquidity, and mitigate risk of loss as to principal.

To date, accounts receivable have been derived principally from revenue earned from end users, manufacturers, and distributors of computer products in North America. The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers, and does not require collateral. The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses; historically, such losses have been within management’s expectations.

The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on the Company’s assessment of the collectability of specific customer accounts and an assessment of international, political and economic risk as well as the aging of the accounts receivable. If there is a change in actual defaults from the Company’s historical experience, the Company’s estimates of recoverability of amounts due could be affected and the Company will adjust the allowance accordingly.

Deferred financing costs:

Deferred financing costs include costs paid in cash, such as professional fees and commissions. The costs associated with equity financings, such as in the sale of Common or Preferred Stock, are netted against the proceeds of the offering. In the case of note financings, costs are amortized to interest expense over the life of the notes or upon early payment using the effective interest method.

F-10

1. Nature of Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued):

Property and equipment, net:

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, ranging from three to five years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over their estimated useful lives, not to exceed the term of the related lease. The cost of additions and improvements is capitalized while maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation expense was $3 and $4 for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Long-lived assets:

The Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets at least annually or whenever circumstances or events indicate such assets might be impaired. The Company would recognize an impairment charge in the event the net book value of such assets exceeded the future undiscounted cash flows attributable to such assets. No such impairment charge was recorded during the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Share-based payment:

Share-based compensation expense is based on the estimated grant date fair value of the portion of share-based payment awards that is ultimately expected to vest during the period. The grant date fair value of share-based awards to employees and directors is calculated using the Black-Scholes-Merton valuation model. Forfeitures of share-based payment awards are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates and it is assumed no dividends will be declared. The estimated fair value of share-based compensation awards to employees is amortized over the vesting period of the options.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers:

The Company adopted the guidance of Accounting Standards Update No 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), on January 1, 2018.

The Company’s principal sources of revenues are from the sale of software products, SOW (engineering services), annual software product, and software maintenance contracts. The Company also derives revenue from customers based on the numbers of signatures produced by the Company’s signature software solutions imbedded within the customer’s product.

Revenue from contracts with customers is recognized using the following five steps:

a) Identify the contract(s) with a customer;

b) Identify the performance obligations (a good or service) in the contract;

c) Determine the transaction price; for each performance obligation within the contract

d) Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

e) Recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

F-11

1. Nature of Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued):

The Company transfers all of its goods and services electronically with the associated costs recorded in cost of sales in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

F-12

1. Nature of Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued):

Research and development:

Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred.

Marketing:

The Company expenses advertising (marketing) costs as incurred. These expenses are outbound marketing expenses associated with participation in industry events, related sales collateral and email campaigns aimed at generating customer participation in webinars. There were no advertising expenses for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

F-13

1. Nature of Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued):

Net loss per share:

The Company calculates net loss per share under the provisions of the relevant accounting guidance. That guidance requires the disclosure of both basic net loss per share, which is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding, and diluted loss per share, which is based on the weighted average number of shares and dilutive potential shares outstanding.

The number of shares of Common Stock subject to outstanding options and shares issuable upon exercise of warrants excluded from the calculation of loss per share as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive are as follows:

	December 31, 2019		December 31, 2018
Common Stock subject to outstanding options		1,077		1,037
Common Stock subject to outstanding warrants		2,536		1,828

Foreign currency assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the end-of-period exchange rates except for long-term assets and liabilities, which are translated at historical exchange rates. Revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates in effect during each period except for those expenses related to consolidated balance sheet amounts which are translated at historical exchange rates.

Net foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in interest and other income, net in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses in 2019 and 2018 were insignificant.

Income taxes:

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected tax consequences of temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial statement reported amounts and for tax loss and credit carry-forwards. A valuation allowance is provided against deferred tax assets when it is determined to be more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

Foreign currency translation:

There have been no unrecognized tax benefits and, accordingly, there has been no effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state and foreign jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal tax examinations for years before 2010, and state tax examinations for years before 2009. Management determined there was no effect on the Company’s unrecognized tax positions in response to changes to the federal tax rates adopted in December of 2018.

The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense.

F-14

1. Nature of Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued):

Recently issued accounting pronouncements:

Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-07, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. Under the new standard, companies will no longer be required to value non-employee awards differently from employee awards. Meaning that companies will value all equity classified awards at their grant-date under ASC 718 and forgo revaluing the award after this date. The effective date of the amendments in ASU 2018-07 are for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU 2018-07 effective January 1, 2019. The adoption of ASU 2018-07 had no material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Accounting Standards Update No. 2019-01, Leases (Topic 842), Codification Improvements. The amendments in this Update include the following items: (1) determining the fair value of the underlying asset by lessors that are not manufacturers or dealers; (2) presentation on the statement of cash flows—sales-type and direct financing leases; and (3) transition disclosures related to Topic 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections. The amendments in ASU 2019-01 for Issue 1 affect all lessors that are not manufacturers or dealers (generally financial institutions and captive finance companies); for Issue 2, all lessors that are depository and lending entities within the scope of Topic 942; for Issue 3, all entities that are lessees or lessors. The effective date of the amendments in ASU 2019-01 are for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU 2019-01 effective January 1, 2019. The adoption of ASU 2019-01 had no impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Other Accounting Standards Updates issued in 2019 are not applicable to the Company, therefore implementation would not be expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Upon collection of an invoice, the Company would repay the advance to the lenders on a pro rata basis together with a 5% advance fee. The receivables were collected and $40 of the advances were repaid in May 2018, along with $2 in advance fees per the agreement. The advance fees were recorded as interest expense in the quarter ended June 30, 2018. The remaining $75 advances were converted into secured convertible notes in August 2018.

In May 2017, the Company issued secured convertible promissory notes to investors and affiliates of the Company aggregating $505 in cash. In addition, certain investors and affiliates of the Company that had taken part in the November 2016 financing, and that also participated in the May 2017 financing, exchanged $450 of unsecured convertible promissory notes received in the November 2016 financing for $250 in secured notes with the same terms as the secured notes issued in the May 2017 financing and $200 in unsecured notes with the same terms as the November 2016 financing. The unsecured notes are mandatorily convertible into Common Stock at a conversion rate of the lesser of $0.50 per share or the price per share of Common Stock upon closing a new financing of at least $1,000 in aggregate proceeds. The unsecured notes bear interest at the rate of 6% per annum. The secured notes are mandatorily convertible into Common Stock at a conversion rate of the lesser of $0.50 per share or the price per share of Common Stock, upon closing a new financing of at least $1,000 in aggregate proceeds. The secured notes bear interest at the rate of 10% per annum and are secured by an interest in all the Company’s rights, title and interest in, to and under its intellectual property. Should the secured notes remain outstanding following the maturity date an additional 30% of the note’s principal amount shall become due and payable. In November of 2019 the note holders agreed to extend the due date of the notes from December 31, 2019 to December 31, 2020.

F-16

6. Debt: (continued):

The secured notes are mandatorily convertible into Common Stock at a conversion rate of the lesser of $0.50 per share or the price per share of Common Stock upon closing a new financing of at least $1,000 in aggregate proceeds. The secured notes bear interest at the rate of 10% per annum and are secured by an interest in all the Company’s rights, title and interest in, to and under its intellectual property. Should the secured notes remain outstanding following the maturity date an additional 30% of the note’s principal amount shall become due and payable. In November of 2019 the note holders agreed to extend the due date of the notes from December 31, 2019 to December 31, 2020.

In December 2018, the Company issued short-term unsecured convertible promissory notes to investors and affiliates of the Company aggregating $346 in cash. The short-term notes are mandatorily convertible into Common Stock at a conversion rate of the lesser of $0.50 per share or the price per share of Common Stock, upon closing a new debt and/or equity financing of at least $1,000 in aggregate proceeds. The notes bear interest at the rate of 10% per annum. In November of 2019 the note holders agreed to extend the due date of the notes from December 31, 2019 to December 31, 2020.

In December 2018, the Company increased the interest rate on its unsecured notes from 6% to 10% beginning January 1, 2019.

Common stock options (continued):

Valuation and Expense Information:

The weighted-average fair value of stock-based compensation is based on the Black Scholes Merton valuation model. Forfeitures are estimated and it is assumed no dividends will be declared. The estimated fair value of stock-based compensation awards to employees is amortized over the vesting period of the options.

The Company granted 40 stock options during 2019 at a weighted average exercise price of $0.50 per share. The Company granted 393 stock options during 2018 at a weighted average exercise price of $0.78 per share. The fair value calculations for the stock options granted are based on the following assumptions:

	Year Ended December 31, 2019			Year Ended December 31, 2018
Risk free interest rate		2.30	%		1.91	%
Expected life (years)		6.1			6.3
Expected volatility		191.65	%		180.51	%
Expected dividends		None			None
Estimated average forfeiture rate		23.6	%		1.91	%

The following table summarizes the allocation of stock-based compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018. There were no stock options exercised during the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.

	December 31, 2019		December 31, 2018
Research and development	$	28	$	85
General and administrative		134		115
Director options and consultants		27		24
Stock-based compensation expense included in operating expenses	$	189	$	224

As of December 31, 2019, there was $68 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements. The unrecognized compensation cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.2 years.

The cash flows from tax benefits for deductions in excess of the compensation costs recognized for share-based payment awards would be classified as financing cash flows. Due to the Company’s loss position, there were no such tax benefits during the year ended December 31, 2019.

The Company booked a $417 accretion amount for the beneficial conversion feature on the 278 shares of Series C Preferred Stock.

Warrants:

On February 6, 2019, the Company issued warrants to purchase 985 shares of common stock to 4 consultants and an employee in connection with the accrued compensation owed by the Company to the employee and consultants.

Facilities rent expense was approximately $34 and $66 in 2019 and 2018, respectively.

9. Income taxes:

At December 31, 2019, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of $64,414 for federal income tax purposes which will begin to expire in 2020 if unused. The Company had net operating loss carryforwards for state income tax purposes of approximately $33,751. These state net operating losses carryforwards will begin to expire in the year 2019 if unused.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities at December 31 consist of the following:

	2019			2018
Deferred tax assets:
Net operating loss carry-forwards	$	15,884		$	16,672
Accruals and reserves		351			263
Deferred revenue		116			84
Intangibles		422			486
Other, net		85			42
Fixed assets		–			–
Gross tax assets		16,858			17,547
Valuation allowance		16,858	)		(17,547	)
Net deferred tax assets	$	–		$	–

The Company’s provision for income taxes differs from the amount computed by applying the statutory U.S. federal income tax rate to loss before taxes as follows for the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

	2019			2018
Income tax benefit at the federal statutory rate	$	(228	)	$	(209	)
State income tax benefit		(77	)		(69	)
NOL expiration		360			938
Prior year true-ups		(565	)		(195	)
Permanent items and other		68			81
Change in valuation allowance		(689	)		(548	)
Income tax expense	$	(1	)	$	(2	)

A full valuation allowance has been established for the Company’s net deferred tax assets since the realization of such assets through the generation of future taxable income is uncertain.

Current tax laws impose substantial restrictions on the utilization of net operating losses and credit carryforwards in the event of an “ownership change”, as defined by the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). If there should be an ownership change, the Company’s ability to utilize its carryforwards could be limited.

9. Subsequent events

On January 28, 2020 and March 2, 2020, the Company received, from investors and affiliates of the Company, advances totaling $75 in cash against certain accounts receivable of the Company. Upon collection of the invoices, the Company was obligated to repay the advances to each of the lenders on a pro rata basis together with a 5% advance fee. The amount advanced was exchanged for the notes described in the paragraph below. Approximately $4 in advance fees was repaid in cash to the lenders, per the agreement.

In March 2020, the Company issued short-term unsecured convertible promissory notes to investors and affiliates of the Company aggregating $75 in cash and $75 in exchange for the above mentioned advances. The short-term notes can convert into common stock at any time at a price per share of $0.50 and automatically convert into common stock upon the closing of a new debt and/or equity financing of at least $1,000, at the lesser of $0.50 or the equivalent common stock price of such financing. The short-term notes bear interest at the rate of 10% per annum and are due December 31, 2020.
