CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This quarterly report on Form 10-Q (this “Report”) contains statements that are considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and its rules and regulations (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and its rules and regulations (the “Exchange Act”). These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about the plans, objectives, expectations and intentions of Oblong, Inc. (“Oblong” or “we” or “us” or the “Company”). All statements other than statements of current or historical fact contained in this Report, including statements regarding Oblong’s future financial position, business strategy, budgets, projected costs and plans and objectives of management for future operations, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” and similar expressions, as they relate to Oblong, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are based on Oblong’s current plans, and Oblong’s actual future activities and results of operations may be materially different from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the statements made. Any or all of the forward-looking statements in this Report may turn out to be inaccurate. Oblong has based these forward-looking statements largely on its current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that it believes may affect its financial condition, results of operations, business strategy and financial needs. The forward-looking statements can be affected by inaccurate assumptions or by known or unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions. There are important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements, including our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions and other factors that are discussed under the section entitled “Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors” and in our consolidated financial statements and the footnotes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, each included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 21, 2023.

OBLONG, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2023
(Unaudited)
Note 1 - Business Description and Significant Accounting Policies
Business Description
Oblong, Inc. (“Oblong” or “we” or “us” or the “Company”) was formed as a Delaware corporation in May 2000 and is a provider of patented multi-stream collaboration technologies and managed services for video collaboration and network applications.
Basis of Presentation
The Company's fiscal year ends on December 31 of each calendar year. The accompanying interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are unaudited and have been prepared on substantially the same basis as our annual Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. In the opinion of the Company's management, these interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The preparation of 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 Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
The December 31, 2022 year-end Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet data in this document was derived from audited consolidated financial statements. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q do not include all disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022 and notes thereto included in the Company's fiscal 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 21, 2023 (the “2022 10-K”).
The results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods included in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period or the entire fiscal year.
Principles of Consolidation
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Oblong and our 100%-owned subsidiaries (i) GP Communications, LLC (“GP Communications”), whose business function is to provide interstate telecommunications services for regulatory purposes, and (ii) Oblong Industries, Inc. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The U.S. Dollar is the functional currency for all subsidiaries.
Segments
The Company currently operates in two segments: (1) “Collaboration Products” which represents the business surrounding our Mezzanine™ product offerings, and (2) “Managed Services” which represents the business surrounding managed services for video collaboration and network solutions. See Note 10 - Segment Reporting for further discussion.
Use of Estimates
Preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) 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 and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual amounts could differ from the estimates made. We continually evaluate estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements for reasonableness. Appropriate adjustments, if any, to the estimates used are made prospectively based upon such periodic evaluation. The significant areas of estimation include determining the allowance for doubtful accounts, the estimated lives and recoverability
of intangible assets, the inputs used in the valuation of intangible assets in connection with our impairment test, and the inputs used in the fair value of equity-based awards.
Significant Accounting Policies
The significant accounting policies used in preparation of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are disclosed in our 2022 10-K, and there have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326),” which was subsequently amended in February 2020 by ASU 2020-02, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) and Leases (Topic 842).” The amendments introduce an impairment model that is based on expected credit losses, rather than incurred losses, to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments (e.g., loans and held-to-maturity securities), including certain off-balance sheet financial instruments (e.g., loan commitments). The expected credit losses should consider historical information, current information, and reasonable and supportable forecasts, including estimates of prepayments, over the contractual term. Financial instruments with similar risk characteristics may be grouped together when estimating expected credit losses. The update was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted the new guidance, as of January 1, 2023, and it did not have a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Note 2 - Liquidity and Going Concern Uncertainty
As of March 31, 2023, we had $3,714,000 in cash and working capital of $3,335,000. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, we incurred a net loss of $1,219,000 and used $844,000 of net cash in operating activities.
Equity Private Placement
On March 30, 2023, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain accredited investors (the “Investors”), pursuant to which we issued and sold, in a private placement transaction (the “Private Placement”), (i) 6,550 shares (the “Preferred Shares”) of our newly designated Series F convertible preferred stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Series F Preferred Stock”), initially convertible into up to 3,830,409 shares of our Common Stock, (ii) preferred warrants (“Preferred Warrants”) to acquire 32,750 shares of Series F Preferred Stock, and (iii) common warrants (“Common Warrants” and with the Preferred Warrants the “Investor Warrants”) to acquire up to 3,830,413 shares of Common Stock. The terms of the Series F Preferred Stock are as set forward in the Certificate of Designations of Series F Preferred Stock of Oblong, Inc. (the “Certificate of Designations”), which was filed and became effective with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on March 31, 2023. The Private Placement closed on March 31, 2023. Please see the discussion in Note 6 - Capital Stock for further details on the Common Warrants and Note 7 - Preferred Stock for further discussion on the Series F Preferred Stock and Preferred Warrants.
The aggregate gross proceeds of the Private Placement are expected to be $6,386,000. All of the Preferred Shares and Investor Warrants were issued at the Closing, but part of the purchase price equivalent to $4,000,000 was placed into an escrow account with American Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Escrow”), to be released upon our obtaining stockholder approval permitting the issuance of more than 19.99% of our outstanding shares of Common Stock at less than the Minimum Price (as defined under the Nasdaq Rules) in accordance with Nasdaq listing standards and as otherwise may be required (the “Stockholder Approval”). The Company expects to use the net proceeds from the Private Placement and the proceeds, if any, from the exercise of the Investor Warrants for general corporate purposes and potential strategic alternatives. We have not, nor has anyone on our behalf, initiated any substantive discussions directly or indirectly with any strategic alternatives partner.
In connection to the Private Placement, pursuant to an engagement letter dated March 30, 2023 (the “Engagement Letter”), between the Company and Dawson James Securities, Inc. (the “Placement Agent”), the Company agreed to (i) pay the Placement Agent a cash fee equal to 8% of the aggregate gross proceeds raised in the Private Placement, and (ii) grant to the Placement Agent warrants (the “Placement Agent Warrants”) to purchase 306,433 shares of Common Stock at an initial exercise price of $1.71 per share. Additionally, we agreed to reimburse the Placement Agent for certain expenses incurred in connection with the Private Placement and to pay certain contingent fees upon the occurrence of specified future events. Please see the discussion in Note 6 - Capital Stock for further details on the Placement Agent Warrants.
Future Capital Requirements and Going Concern
Our capital requirements in the future will continue to depend on numerous factors, including the potential release of the Escrow, the amount of revenue the Company is able to generate, customer renewal rates and the timing of collection of outstanding accounts receivable, in each case particularly as it relates to the Company’s major customers, the expense to deliver services, expense for sales and marketing, and expense for research and development. The Company believes that, in the event the Escrow is not released, based on its current projection of revenue, expenses, and cash flows, it will not have sufficient resources to fund its operations for the next twelve months following the filing of this Report. We believe additional capital will be required to fund operations and provide growth capital including investments in technology, product development and sales and marketing. To access capital to fund operations or provide growth capital, we will need to raise capital in one or more debt and/or equity offerings. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising necessary capital or that any such offering will be on terms acceptable to the Company. If we are unable to raise additional capital that may be needed on terms acceptable to us, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The factors discussed above raise substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not include any adjustments that might result from these uncertainties.
Note 3 - Intangible Assets and Goodwill
Intangioble Assets
The following table presents the components of net intangible assets for our Collaboration Products reporting segment (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| As of March 31, 2023 | | As of December 31, 2022 |
| Gross Carrying Amount | | Accumulated Amortization | | Net Carrying Amount | | Gross Carrying Amount | | Accumulated Amortization | | Net Carrying Amount |
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | |
Developed technology | $ | 486 | | | $ | (121) | | | $ | 365 | | | $ | 486 | | | $ | (61) | | | $ | 425 | |
Trade names | 204 | | | (51) | | | 153 | | | 204 | | | (25) | | | 179 | |

Total | $ | 690 | | | $ | (172) | | | $ | 518 | | | $ | 690 | | | $ | (86) | | | $ | 604 | |
At each reporting period, we determine if there was a triggering event that may result in an impairment of our intangible assets. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we considered the declines in revenue for the Collaboration Products reporting segment to be a triggering event for an impairment test of intangible assets for this segment. Based on the fair value of the asset group, which was determined using a market approach, no impairment charges were recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Related amortization expense was $86,000 and $580,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Amortization expense for each of the next five succeeding years will be as follows (in thousands):
| | | | | |
Remainder of 2023 | $ | 260 | |
2024 | 258 | |
| |
| |
| |
Total | $ | 518 | |
Goodwill
During 2022, Goodwill was written down to zero with an impairment charge of $1,138,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2022, and a subsequent impairment charge of $6,229,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2022.

Note 7 - Preferred Stock
Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock. As of March 31, 2023, we had 1,983,250 designated shares of preferred stock and 6,550 shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding. As of December 31, 2022, we had no shares of preferred stock outstanding.
Series F Preferred Stock
As described in Note 2, on March 31, 2023, the Company closed a Private Placement and issued (i) 6,550 shares of our newly designated Series F Preferred Stock and (ii) Preferred Warrants to acquire 32,750 shares of Series F Preferred Stock.
As of March 31, 2023, the Company recorded net proceeds from the Private Placement of $1,473,000 to stockholders’ equity. The net proceeds included $6,386,000 in gross proceeds, less (i) $4,000,000 that is being held in escrow and (ii) $913,000 in financing costs.
The Series F Preferred Shares are convertible into fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Company’s Common Stock at the election of the holder at any time at an initial conversion price of $1.71 (the “Conversion Price”). The holders of the Series F Preferred Shares may also elect to convert their shares at an alternative conversion price equal to the lower of (i) 80% of the applicable Conversion Price as in effect on the date of the conversion, (ii) 80% of the closing price on the trading day immediately preceding the delivery of the conversion notice, and (iii) the greater of (a) the Floor Price (as defined in the Certificate of Designations) and (b) the quotient of (x) the sum of the five lowest Closing Bid Prices (as defined in the Certificate of Designations) for trading days in the 30 consecutive trading day period ending and including the trading day immediately preceding the delivery of the applicable Conversion Notice, divided by (y) five, provided that that such price may not be lower than the Minimum Price (as defined under the Nasdaq Rules) prior to obtaining Stockholder Approval for the issuance. The Conversion Price is subject to customary adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, stock combination recapitalization, or other similar transactions involving the Common Stock, and subject to price-based adjustment, on a full ratchet basis, in the event of any issuances of our common stock, or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock, at a price below the then-applicable Conversion Price (subject to certain exceptions).
Under the Certificate of Designations, the Series F Preferred Shares have an initial stated value of $1,000 per share (the “Stated Value”). The holders of the Series F Preferred Shares are entitled to dividends of 9% per annum, which will be payable in arrears quarterly. Accrued dividends may be paid, at our option, in cash and if not paid, shall increase the stated value of the Series F Preferred Shares. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Triggering Event (as defined in the Certificate of Designations), the Series F Preferred Shares will accrue dividends at the rate of 20% per annum (the “Default Rate”). The Series F Preferred Shares have no voting rights, other than with respect to certain matters affecting the rights of the Series F Preferred Shares. On matters with respect to which the holders of the Series F Preferred Shares have a right to vote, holders of the Preferred Shares will have voting rights on an as-converted basis, provided that until receipt of Stockholder Approval, any adjustment to the Conversion Price shall not cause the Conversion Price for voting purposes to be less than the Minimum Price (as defined in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d)).
Our ability to settle conversions is subject to certain limitations set forth in the Certificate of Designations, including a limit on the number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued until the time that the Stockholder Approval is obtained permitting the issuance of more than 19.99% of our outstanding shares of Common Stock in accordance with Nasdaq listing standards. We agreed to seek Stockholder Approval of these matters at a meeting to be held no later than May 31, 2023. Further, the Certificate of Designations contains a certain beneficial ownership limitation after giving effect to the issuance of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series F Preferred Shares.
The Certificate of Designations includes certain Triggering Events (as defined in the Certificate of Designations), including, among other things, (i) the failure to file and maintain an effective registration statement covering the sale of the holder’s securities registrable pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, (ii) the failure to pay any amounts due to the holders of the Series F Preferred Shares when due, and (iii) if Peter Holst ceases to be the chief executive officer of the Company other than because of his death, and a qualified replacement, reasonably acceptable to a majority of the holders of the Series F Preferred Shares, is not appointed within thirty (30) business days. In connection with a Triggering Event, the Default Rate is triggered. The Default Rate is also triggered in the event that we are unable, from the failure to obtain the Stockholder Approval prior to May 31, 2023 (the “Approval Date”), to issue shares of Common Stock in connection with a conversion of the Series F Preferred Stock after the Approval Date. We are subject to certain affirmative and negative covenants regarding the incurrence of indebtedness, acquisition transactions, the existence of liens, the repayment of indebtedness, the payment of cash in respect of dividends (other than dividends pursuant to the Certificate of Designations), maintenance of properties and the transfer of assets, among other matters.
Series F Preferred Stock Warrants
The Preferred Warrants are exercisable for Series F Preferred Shares at an exercise price of $975. The exercise price is subject to customary adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, stock combination recapitalizations or other similar transactions involving the Common Stock. The Preferred Warrants expire three years from the date of issuance and are exercisable for cash. For each Preferred Warrant exercised, the Investors shall receive Common Warrants to purchase a number of shares of Common Stock equal to 100% of the number of shares of Common Stock the Investors would receive if the Series F Preferred Shares issuable upon exercise of such Warrant were converted at the applicable Conversion Price. The fair value of the Preferred Warrants was recorded within additional paid-in capital during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

The intrinsic value of vested and unvested options was not significant for all periods presented. Stock compensation expense, related to stock options, for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was $31,000. Net stock compensation expense, related to stock options, was a negative $32,000, made up of $52,000 in expense offset by $84,000 related to forfeiture credits, for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The remaining unrecognized stock-based compensation expense for options as of March 31, 2023 is $154,000, which will be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.25 years.
Restricted Stock Awards
As of March 31, 2023, there were 42 unvested restricted stock awards outstanding, with a weighted average grant date price of $235.87. The awards were issued in 2014 and vest over the lesser of ten years, a change in control, or separation from the company. Due to the variability of the vesting, the expense was amortized over an average service period of five years, therefore, there is no unrecognized stock-based compensation expense for restricted stock awards as of March 31, 2023.
Restricted Stock Units
As of March 31, 2023, there were no unvested restricted stock units (“RSUs”) outstanding. As of March 31, 2023, 1,929 vested RSUs remain outstanding as shares of common stock have not yet been delivered for these units in accordance with the terms of the RSUs.
There was no stock compensation expense related to RSUs for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. There was no remaining unrecognized stock-based compensation expense for RSUs as of March 31, 2023.
On April 18, 2023, 177,564 RSUs were granted to certain board members. These RSUs vested immediately upon issuance.
Note 9 - Net Loss Per Share
On January 3, 2023, the Company effected a 1-for-15 reverse stock split for its Common Stock. All Common Stock share information in the following net loss per share discussion and tables are shown as adjusted for this stock split retrospectively for all periods represented herein.
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding does not include any potentially dilutive securities or unvested restricted stock. Unvested restricted stock, although classified as issued and outstanding at March 31, 2023 and 2022, is considered contingently returnable until the restrictions lapse and will not be included in the basic net loss per share calculation until the shares are vested. Unvested restricted stock does not contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends and dividend equivalents. Unvested RSUs are not included in calculations of basic net loss per share, as they are not considered issued and outstanding at time of grant.
Diluted net loss per share is computed by giving effect to all potential shares of common stock, including stock options, preferred stock, RSUs, and unvested restricted stock, to the extent they are dilutive. For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, all such common stock equivalents have been excluded from diluted net loss per share as the effect to net loss per share would be anti-dilutive (due to the net loss).
The following table sets forth the computation of the Company’s basic and diluted net loss per share (in thousands, except per share data):

The Company considers a significant customer to be one that comprises more than 10% of the Company’s consolidated revenues or accounts receivable. The loss of or a reduction in sales or anticipated sales to our most significant or several of our smaller customers could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Note 11 - Commitments and Contingencies
From time to time, we are subject to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings for which we have insurance coverage. As of the date hereof, we are not party to any legal proceedings that we currently believe will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
COVID-19
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) announced that infections of the novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) had become pandemic, and on March 13, 2020, the U.S. President announced a National Emergency relating to the disease. In May 2023, the WHO declared COVID-19 over as a global health emergency. Customers generally use our Mezzanine™ products in traditional office and operating center environments such as conference rooms or other presentation
spaces. Revenue declines for our Collaboration Products business are primarily attributable to the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic on our existing and target customers as they continue to evaluate behavioral changes in how and when employees choose to work from traditional office environments, resulting in delayed buying decisions for our Collaboration Products. Continuation of the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, could cause further disruptions to our operations and the operations of our customers, suppliers and logistics partners and could significantly adversely affect our near-term and long-term revenues, earnings, liquidity and cash flows.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
We are a provider of patented multi-stream collaboration products and managed services for video collaboration and network solutions.
Mezzanine™ Product Offerings
Our flagship product is called Mezzanine™, a family of turn-key products that enable dynamic and immersive visual collaboration across multi-users, multi-screens, multi-devices, and multi-locations (see further description of Mezzanine™ in Part I, Item 1). Mezzanine™ allows multiple people to share, control and arrange content simultaneously, from any location, enabling all participants to see the same content in its entirety at the same time in identical formats, resulting in dramatic enhancements to both in-room and virtual videoconference presentations. Applications include video telepresence, laptop and application sharing, whiteboard sharing and slides. Spatial input allows content to be spread across screens, spanning different walls, scalable to an arbitrary number of displays and interaction with our proprietary wand device. Mezzanine™ substantially enhances day-to-day virtual meetings with technology that accelerates decision making, improves communication, and increases productivity. Mezzanine™ scales up to support the most immersive and commanding innovation centers; across to link labs, conference spaces, and situation rooms; and down for the smallest work groups. Mezzanine’s digital collaboration platform can be sold as delivered systems in various configurations for small teams to total immersion experiences. The family includes the 200 Series (two display screen), 300 Series (three screen), and 600 Series (six screen). We also sell maintenance and support contracts related to Mezzanine™.
Historically, customers have used Mezzanine™ products in traditional office and operating center environments such as conference rooms or other presentation spaces. As discussed below, sales of our Mezzanine product have been adversely affected by commercial response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Like many technology companies in recent months, we will continue to monitor and manage our costs relative to demand with the goal of growing the Company’s revenue in the future. To the extent we believe new investments in product development, marketing, or sales are warranted as a result of changes in market demand, we believe additional capital will be required to fund those efforts and our ongoing operations.
Managed Services for Video Collaboration
We provide a range of managed services for video collaboration, from automated to orchestrated, to simplify the user experience in an effort to drive adoption of video collaboration throughout our customers’ enterprise. We deliver our services through a hybrid service platform or as a service layer on top of our customers’ video infrastructure. We provide our customers with i) managed videoconferencing, where we set up and manage customer videoconferences and ii) remote service management, where we provide 24/7 support and management of customer video environments.
Managed Services for Network
We provide our customers with network solutions that ensure reliable, high-quality and secure traffic of video, data and internet. Network services are offered to our customers on a subscription basis. Our network services business carries variable costs associated with the purchasing and reselling of this connectivity.

Revenue. Total revenue decreased 32% in the 2023 First Quarter compared to the 2022 First Quarter. The following table summarizes the changes in components of our revenue (in thousands), and the significant changes in revenue are discussed in more detail below.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Total revenue | $ | 1,038 | | | 100 | % | | $ | 1,532 | | | 100 | % |
Managed Services
•The decrease in revenue for video collaboration services is mainly attributable to lower revenue from existing customers (either from reductions in price or level of services) and loss of customers to competition.
•The decrease in revenue for network services is mainly attributable to net attrition of customers and lower demand for our services given the competitive environment and pressure on pricing that exists in the network services business.
•We expect revenue declines in our Managed Services segment will continue in the future.
Collaboration Products
•Customers generally use our Mezzanine™ products in traditional office and operating center environments such as conference rooms or other presentation spaces. The year over year decrease in revenue for our Collaboration Products business is primarily attributable to the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic on our existing and target customers as they continue to evaluate behavioral changes in how and when employees choose to work from traditional office environments, resulting in delayed buying decisions for our Collaboration Products. Continuation of the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, could cause further disruptions to our operations and the operations of our customers, suppliers and logistics partners and could significantly adversely affect our near-term and long-term revenues, earnings, liquidity and cash flows.
Cost of Revenue (exclusive of depreciation and amortization). Cost of revenue, exclusive of depreciation and amortization and casualty loss, includes all internal and external costs related to the delivery of revenue. Cost of revenue also includes taxes which have been billed to customers. Cost of revenue by segment is presented in the following table (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended March 31, |
| 2023 | | 2022 |
Cost of Revenue | | | |
Managed Services | $ | 460 | | | $ | 645 | |
Collaboration Products | 302 | | | 388 | |
Total cost of revenue | $ | 762 | | | $ | 1,033 | |
The decrease in our consolidated cost of revenue is mainly attributable to lower costs associated with the decrease in revenue during the same period. Our consolidated gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 27% in the 2023 First Quarter compared to 33% in the 2022 First Quarter. The gross profit as a percentage of revenue for our Collaboration Products segment was 13% in the 2023 First Quarter compared to 31% in the 2022 First Quarter. This decrease was mainly attributable to i) an increase in our inventory obsolescence reserve of $26,000 in the 2023 First Quarter as compared to the 2022 First Quarter, ii) a
one-time assessment for common area charges on warehouse space of $12,000, and iii) an increase in personnel costs as a percentage of revenue between these periods.
Operating expenses are presented in the following table (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended March 31, | | | | |
| 2023 | | 2022 | | $ Change | | % Change |

General and administrative | 1,169 | | | 1,690 | | | (521) | | | (31) | % |
Impairment charges | — | | | 1,138 | | | (1,138) | | | (100) | % |

Total operating expenses | $ | 1,479 | | | $ | 5,021 | | | $ | (3,542) | | | (71) | % |
Research and Development. Research and development expenses include internal and external costs related to developing new product offerings as well as features and enhancements to our existing product offerings. The decrease in research and development expenses for the 2023 First Quarter compared to the 2022 First Quarter is primarily attributable to the shut down of R&D expenses at the end of the 2022 First Quarter, in order to conserve cash, which resulted in lower personnel costs due to reduced headcount, consulting, and outsourced labor costs between these periods.
Sales and Marketing Expenses. The decrease in sales and marketing expenses for 2023 First Quarter compared to the 2022 First Quarter is primarily attributable to lower personnel costs due to reduced headcount, reduced marketing costs between these periods, and lower sales as discussed above.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses include direct corporate expenses and costs of personnel in the various corporate support categories, including executive, finance and accounting, legal, human resources and information technology. The decrease in general and administrative expenses for the 2023 First Quarter compared to the 2022 First Quarter is primarily attributable to a decrease in office related expenses and professional services.
Impairment Charges. There were no impairment charges in the 2023 First Quarter. The impairment charges in the 2022 First Quarter were attributable to goodwill. Future declines of our revenue, cash flows and/or market capitalization may give rise to a triggering event that may require the Company to record impairment charges in the future related to our intangible assets and other long-lived assets.
Depreciation and Amortization. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expenses for the 2023 First Quarter compared to the 2022 First Quarter is mainly attributable to the disposition and impairment of certain assets during the year ended 2022, as well as a decrease in depreciation as certain assets became fully depreciated.
Loss from Operations. The decrease in the Company’s loss from operations for the 2023 First Quarter compared to the 2022 First Quarter is mainly attributable to lower operating expenses as addressed above.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of March 31, 2023, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Inflation
Management does not believe inflation had a significant effect on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the periods presented.
Critical Accounting Policies
There have been no changes to our critical accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2023. Critical accounting policies and the significant estimates made in accordance with such policies are regularly discussed with our Audit
Committee. Those policies are discussed under “Critical Accounting Policies” in “Part II. Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” as well as in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the footnotes thereto, each included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on March 21, 2023 (the “2022 Annual Report”).
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2023, we had $3,714,000 in cash and working capital of $3,335,000. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, we incurred a net loss of $1,219,000 and used $844,000 of net cash in operating activities.
Equity Private Placement
On March 30, 2023, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain accredited investors (the “Investors”), pursuant to which we issued and sold, in a private placement transaction (the “Private Placement”), (i) 6,550 shares (the “Preferred Shares”) of our newly designated Series F convertible preferred stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Series F Preferred Stock”), initially convertible into up to 3,830,409 shares of our Common Stock, (ii) preferred warrants (“Preferred Warrants”) to acquire 32,750 shares of Series F Preferred Stock, and (iii) common warrants (“Common Warrants” and with the Preferred Warrants, the “Investor Warrants”) to acquire up to 3,830,413 shares of Common Stock. The terms of the Series F Preferred Stock are as set forward in the Certificate of Designations of Series F Preferred Stock of Oblong, Inc. (the “Certificate of Designations”), which was filed and became effective with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on March 31, 2023. The Private Placement closed on March 31, 2023. Please see the discussion in Note 6 - Capital Stock for further details on the Common Warrants and Note 7 - Preferred Stock for further discussion on the Series F Preferred Stock and Preferred Warrants.
The aggregate gross proceeds of the Private Placement are expected to be $6,386,250. All of the Preferred Shares and warrants were issued at the Closing, but part of the purchase price equivalent to $4,000,000 was placed into an escrow account with American Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Escrow”), to be released upon our obtaining stockholder approval permitting the issuance of more than 19.99% of our outstanding shares of Common Stock at less than the Minimum Price (as defined under the Nasdaq Rules) in accordance with Nasdaq listing standards and as otherwise may be required (the “Stockholder Approval”). The Company expects to use the net proceeds from the Private Placement and the proceeds, if any, from the exercise of the Investor Warrants for general corporate purposes and potential strategic alternatives. We have not, no has anyone on our behalf, initiated any substantive discussions directly or indirectly with any strategic alternatives partner.
In connection with the Private Placement, pursuant to an engagement letter dated March 30, 2023 (the “Engagement Letter”), between the Company and Dawson James Securities, Inc. (the “Placement Agent”), the Company agreed to (i) pay the Placement Agent a cash fee equal to 8% of the aggregate gross proceeds raised in the Private Placement, and (ii) grant to the Placement Agent warrants (the “Placement Agent Warrants”) to purchase 306,433 shares of Common Stock at an initial exercise price of $1.71 per share. Additionally, we agreed to reimburse the Placement Agent for certain expenses incurred in connection with the Private Placement and to pay certain contingent fees upon the occurrence of specified future events. Please see the discussion in Note 6 - Capital Stock for further details on the Placement Agent Warrants.
Future Capital Requirements and Going Concern
Our capital requirements in the future will continue to depend on numerous factors, including the potential release of the Escrow, the amount of revenue the Company is able to generate, customer renewal rates and the timing of collection of outstanding accounts receivable, in each case particularly as it relates to the Company’s major customers, the expense to deliver services, expense for sales and marketing, and expense for research and development. The Company believes that, in the event the Escrow is not released, based on its current projection of revenue, expenses, and cash flows, it will not have sufficient resources to fund its operations for the next twelve months following the filing of this Report. We believe additional capital will be required, in the short-term and the long-term, to fund operations and provide growth capital including investments in technology, product development and sales and marketing. To access capital to fund operations or provide growth capital, we will need to raise capital in one or more debt and/or equity offerings. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising necessary capital or that any such offering will be on terms acceptable to the Company. If we are unable to raise additional capital that may be needed on terms acceptable to us, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The factors discussed above raise substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements do not include any adjustments that might result from these uncertainties.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by the rules and regulations of the SEC, we are not required to provide this information.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of March 31, 2023. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of March 31, 2023, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms and are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2023 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
From time to time, we are subject to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings for which we have insurance coverage. As of the date hereof, we are not party to any legal proceedings that we currently believe will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
A description of the risks associated with our business, financial conditions and results of operations is set forth in “Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our 2022 Annual Report. Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to these risks during the three months ended March 31, 2023. The risks described in the 2022 Annual Report are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or future results.
The terms of the Series F Preferred Stock could limit our growth and our ability to finance our operations, fund our capital needs, respond to changing conditions and engage in other business activities that may be in our best interests. The Certificate of Designations for the Series F Preferred Stock contains a number of affirmative and negative covenants regarding matters such as the payment of dividends, maintenance of our properties and assets, transactions with affiliates, and our ability to issue other indebtedness. No assurances can be given that we will be able to comply with the financial or other covenants contained in the Certificate of Designations. If we are unable to comply with certain terms in the Certificate of Designations:
• dividends will accrue on the Series B Preferred Stock at 20% per annum;
• the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock could foreclose against our assets; and/or
• we could be forced into bankruptcy or liquidation.
Our ability to comply with these covenants may be adversely affected by events beyond our control, and we cannot assure you that we can maintain compliance with these covenants. The financial covenants could limit our ability to make needed expenditures or otherwise conduct necessary or desirable business activities.
The issuance of the securities in the Private Placement significantly diluted the ownership interest of the existing holders of our common stock, and the market price of our common stock will likely decline significantly as a result of sales of such securities into the public market by the Investors and subsequent investors or the perception that such sales may
occur. Our existing holders of common stock have been significantly diluted by the issuance of the securities in the Private Placement. Our public float was significantly increased and the market price of our common stock could decline significantly as a result of subsequent sales of the shares of common stock issued in the Private Placement, or the perception that such sales may occur.
In addition, the exercise price or conversion price of these securities may be at prices below the current and/or then trading prices of shares of our common stock or at prices below the price at which our existing shareholders purchased our common stock. The Investors may potentially make a significant profit with the resale of the securities depending on the trading price of our securities at the time of a sale and the purchase price of such securities by them. While the Investors may experience a positive rate of return based on the trading price of our securities, the existing holders of our common stock may not experience a similar rate of return on the shares of common stock they purchased due to differences in the applicable purchase price and trading price.
If our stockholders do not approve the issuance by us in the Private Placement of more than 19.99% of our outstanding shares of Common Stock at less than the Minimum Price (as defined under the Nasdaq listing rules), our ability to finance our operations, execute our business plan and fund our capital needs will be materially and adversely affected. All of the Preferred Shares and Investor Warrants were issued at the closing of the Private Placement, but part of the purchase price equivalent to $4 million has been placed in an escrow account until the Stockholder Approval is obtained. Effectively, stockholder approval is one of the conditions for us to receive (i) $4 million in escrow and (ii) approximately $31.9 million upon the exercise of the Preferred Warrants, if exercised for cash. If the Stockholder Approval is not obtained, we will not be able to access such funds and our ability to execute our business plan will be jeopardized and we will be materially and adversely affected.
The failure of our stockholders to approve this proposal will mean that the conversion of the Preferred Shares and the exercise of the Common Warrants will be limited to the extent that such conversion or exercise, together with any other securities convertible or exchangeable for shares, would result in the issuance, in the aggregate, of no more than 19.99% of the shares of our Common Stock outstanding. As a result, we may be unable to issue sufficient shares upon conversion of the Preferred Shares or exercise of the Warrants which will, in lieu of those shares, require that we pay buy-in cash amounts to the Investors. We do not anticipate having sufficient funds to make any substantial cash payments to the holders of the Preferred Shares.
Our ability to successfully implement our business plan and ultimately generate value for our stockholders is dependent upon our ability to raise capital and satisfy our ongoing business needs. If we are required to satisfy our buy-in payment obligations in cash rather than Common Stock, we may not have the capital necessary to fully satisfy our ongoing business needs, the effect of which would adversely impact future operating results, and result in a delay in our business plans. Additionally, it may be necessary for the Company to obtain additional financing in order to pay the obligations in cash, which may result in additional transaction expenses.
Further, pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, if our stockholders do not approve this proposal, we will be required to seek stockholder approval of this proposal again on or before July 31, 2023, and thereafter semi-annually until we receive stockholder approval of this proposal. As such, our failure to obtain stockholder approval of this proposal at the May 18, 2023 Special Meeting will require us to incur the costs of holding one or more additional stockholder meetings until we receive such approval.
ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities by the Company
There have been no unregistered sales of securities by the Company during the period covered by this Report that have not been previously reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K.
