−Removed: Chief Financial Officer, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
−Removed: In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and
−Removed: operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and our management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
−Removed: Because of its
−Removed: inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.
−Removed: Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation
−Removed: and presentation.
−Removed: Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may
−Removed: As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of the end of the period covered by this annual report, being December 31, 2019, we have carried out an
−Removed: evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our Company’s disclosure controls and procedures.
−Removed: This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Company’s management, including our Company’s
−Removed: Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.
−Removed: Based upon that evaluation, our company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our company’s disclosure controls and procedures are not yet effective as of the end
−Removed: of the period covered by this report as noted below in management’s report on internal control over financial reporting.
−Removed: This is largely due to the fact that we have in the past acquired a number of privately held companies as part of our growth
−Removed: strategy and our control procedures over all acquired subsidiaries have taken time to implement.
−Removed: We are working to improve and harmonize our financial reporting controls and procedures across all of our companies.
−Removed: Disclosure controls and procedures and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the

−Removed: Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls
−Removed: will prevent all error or fraud.
−Removed: Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.
−Removed: Due to the inherent limitations in all
−Removed: control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.

−Removed: of management and our directors;
−Removed: and providing reasonable assurance that unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements would be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
−Removed: result of this assessment, our management concluded that, as of December 31, 2019, our internal control over financial reporting was not yet effective in providing reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the
−Removed: preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
−Removed: This is largely due to the fact that we have in the past acquired a number of privately held companies as part of our growth

−Removed: We are working to improve and harmonize our financial reporting controls and procedures across all of our companies.
−Removed: This annual report does not include an attestation report of our independent auditors regarding internal control over financial reporting.

+Added: of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
+Added: maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that the information we are required to disclose in reports that we file
+Added: or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified under the rules and
+Added: forms of the SEC.
+Added: Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that such
+Added: information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer,
+Added: as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
+Added: As required by paragraph (b) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under
+Added: the Exchange Act, our Chief Executive Officer (our principal executive) and Chief Financial Officer (our principal financial officer
+Added: and principal accounting officer) carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls
+Added: and procedures as of December 31, 2020.
+Added: Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that
+Added: our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in paragraph (e) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange Act) were not effective
+Added: as December 31, 2020 due to a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as described below.
+Added: on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
+Added: internal control system over financial reporting has inherent limitations and may not prevent or detect misstatements.
+Added: Therefore, even
+Added: those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
+Added: Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because
+Added: of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
+Added: However, these inherent limitations
+Added: are known features of the financial reporting process.
+Added: Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though
+Added: not eliminate, this risk.
+Added: Management’s
+Added: Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
+Added: management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Exchange
+Added: Act Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f).
+Added: Internal control over financial reporting is a process used to provide reasonable assurance regarding
+Added: the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally
+Added: accepted accounting principles in the United States.
+Added: Internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that
+Added: pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our
+Added: provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of our financial statements in
+Added: accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made
+Added: only in accordance with the authorization of our board of directors and management;
+Added: and provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention
+Added: or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial
+Added: the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (our principal executive officer)
+Added: and Chief Financial Officer (our principal financial officer and principal accounting officer), we performed an assessment of the Company’s
+Added: significant processes and key controls.
+Added: Based on this assessment, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting
+Added: was not effective as of December 31, 2020 due to the material weakness described below.
+Added: material weakness is defined within the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board’s Auditing Standard No.
+Added: 5 as a deficiency or
+Added: a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material
+Added: misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
+Added: We determined
+Added: that our internal control over financial reporting had the following material weaknesses:
+Added: to the small size of the Company, the Company does not maintain sufficient segregation of duties to ensure the processing, review
+Added: and authorization of all transactions including non-routine transactions.
+Added: Company is evaluating these weaknesses to determine the appropriate remedy.
+Added: Because disclosure controls and procedures include those
+Added: components of internal control over financial reporting that provide reasonable assurances that transactions are recorded as necessary
+Added: to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, management also determined
+Added: that its disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as a result of the foregoing material weaknesses in its internal control
+Added: over financial reporting.
+Added: in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
+Added: the quarter ended December 31, 2020, the Company was in the process of remediating its material weaknesses and designing
+Added: an effective internal control environment.

−Removed: Board of Directors.
−Removed: Family Relationships
−Removed: There are no family relationships among our directors and executive officers.
−Removed: EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
−Removed: Role and Authority of Compensation Committee
−Removed: The Compensation Committee currently consists of Messrs.
−Removed: Angelis and Sukumaran.
−Removed: Angelis and Sukumaran are each a “non-employee director” within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 under the
−Removed: Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 and an “outside director” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code.
−Removed: Angelis and Sukumaran and satisfy the independence requirements imposed by the NASDAQ Stock Market.
−Removed: The Compensation Committee is responsible for discharging the responsibilities of the Board of Directors with respect to the compensation of our executive officers.
−Removed: The Compensation Committee
−Removed: recommends overall compensation of our executive officers to the Board of Directors.
−Removed: The Board of Directors approves all compensation of our executive officers.
−Removed: The Compensation Committee also periodically reviews director compensation.
−Removed: The charter of the Compensation Committee permits the Compensation Committee to engage outside consultants and to consult with our human resources department when appropriate to assist in
−Removed: carrying out its responsibilities.
−Removed: Compensation consultants have not been engaged by the Company to recommend or assist in determining the amount or form of compensation for any current executive officers or directors of the Company.
−Removed: The Committee may also obtain advice and assistance from internal or external legal, accounting, or other advisers selected by the Committee.
−Removed: Elements of Executive Compensation
−Removed: Our executive compensation consists of the following elements:
−Removed: Annual Incentive Bonus;
−Removed: Long-Term Incentives;
−Removed: Retirement benefits under a 401(k) plan and generally available benefit programs.
−Removed: Base Salary .
−Removed: The base salary for
−Removed: each executive is initially established through negotiation at the time the executive is hired, taking into account his or her scope of responsibilities, qualifications, experience, prior
−Removed: salary, and competitive salary information within our industry.
−Removed: Year-to-year adjustments to each executive officer’s base salary are determined by an assessment of his or her sustained performance against individual goals, including leadership
−Removed: skills and the achievement of high ethical standards, the individual’s impact on our business and financial results, current salary in relation to the salary range designated for the job, experience, demonstrated potential for advancement, and an
−Removed: assessment against base salaries paid to executives for comparable jobs in the marketplace..
−Removed: Annual Bonus .
−Removed: Annual bonus payments under our executive employment agreements are based on the discretion of our Board of Directors.
−Removed: We believe that such bonuses provide our executives with an incentive to achieve goals that are aligned with our stockholders’ interests, with the achievement of such goals being measurable in
−Removed: terms of revenue and income or other financial objectives.
−Removed: An executive officer’s failure to achieve measurable performance goals can affect his or her bonus amount.
−Removed: We believe that offering significant potential income in the form of bonuses
−Removed: allows us to attract and retain executives and to align their interests with those of our stockholders.
−Removed: Long-Term Incentives .
−Removed: The Compensation Committee has the ability to grant equity instruments to our executives under our 2015 Equity
−Removed: Incentive Award Plan.
−Removed: The Compensation Committee has the ability to issue a variety of instruments, but equity grants will typically be in the form of stock options and restricted stock
−Removed: We believe that our executive compensation program must include long-term incentives such as stock options and restricted stock units if we wish to hire and retain high-level executive talent.
−Removed: We also believe that stock options and
−Removed: restricted stock units help to provide a balance to the overall executive compensation program as base salary and bonus awards focus only on short-term compensation.
−Removed: In addition, the vesting period of stock options and restricted stock units
−Removed: encourages executive retention and the preservation of stockholder value.
−Removed: Finally, we believe that aligning at least a portion of restricted stock units vesting provisions to financial performance measures further aligns executive compensation to
−Removed: stockholder value;
−Removed: if performance targets are not achieved, then the awards do not vest.
−Removed: We base the number of equity units granted on the type and responsibility level of the executive’s position, the executive’s performance in the prior year and
−Removed: the executive’s potential for continued sustained contributions to our long-term success and the long-term interests of our stockholders.
−Removed: 401(k) and Other Benefits .
−Removed: During 2019, our executive officers were eligible to receive certain benefits generally available to all our
−Removed: employees on the same terms, including medical, dental and vision insurance, long-term and short-term disability insurance, life and accidental death and dismemberment insurance, health
−Removed: and dependent care flexible spending accounts, educational and employee assistance, paid-time-off, and certain other benefits.
−Removed: During 2015, we also maintained a tax-qualified 401(k) Plan, which provides for broad-based employee participation.
−Removed: During 2019, under the 401(k) Plan, at the Company’s discretion, all employees were eligible to receive matching contributions from Ameri of (i) 100% of their first 3% of employee contributions and (ii) 50% of the next 2% of employee contributions
−Removed: up to an aggregate maximum of $10,600 per employee, per year, subject to vesting provisions.
−Removed: Compensation Risk Assessment.
−Removed: In establishing and reviewing our overall compensation program, the Compensation Committee considers
−Removed: whether the program and its various elements encourage or motivate our executives or other employees to take excessive risks.
−Removed: We believe that our compensation program and its elements are
−Removed: designed to encourage our employees to act in the long-term best interests of the Company and are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our business.
−Removed: The Impact of Tax and Accounting Treatments on Elements of Compensation
−Removed: We have elected to award non-qualified stock options instead of incentive stock options to all our employees, directors and consultants to allow the corporation to take advantage of the more
−Removed: favorable tax advantages associated with non-qualified stock options.
−Removed: Internal Revenue Code Section 162(m) precludes us from deducting compensation in excess of $1.0 million for certain employees.
−Removed: To date, we have not exceeded the $1.0 million limit for those
−Removed: employees, and the Compensation Committee has not defined a policy that all compensation must be deductible.
−Removed: However, since stock-based awards comprise a significant portion of total compensation, the Compensation Committee has taken appropriate
−Removed: steps to preserve deductibility for such awards in the future, when appropriate.
−Removed: Summary Compensation Table
−Removed: The following table provides information regarding the compensation earned during the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 by our Chief Executive Officer and our two other most
−Removed: highly compensated executive officers (our “Named Executive Officers”) who were employed by us during such years.

+Added: of value are those comparable transactions between informed, willing, buyers and sellers;
+Added: transaction must be orderly and not in a distressed situation;
+Added: the weight of observable inputs, where possible;
+Added: issued as the indicator of value must be similar or identical to the securities being valued;

+Added: Consideration
+Added: as to whether the valuation of the technology is more indicative of the fair value of the assets acquired in comparison to the consideration
+Added: to the significance of the intangible assets to the Company’s financial statements and the inherent judgment necessary to estimate
+Added: the valuation of the common stock, we determined that the fair value of common stock used in the purchase of intangible assets was a

−Removed: NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
−Removed: DECEMBER 31, 2019
−Removed: DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS:
−Removed: AMERI Holdings, Inc.
−Removed: (“AMERI”, the “Company”, “we” or “our”) is a fast-growing company that, through the operations of its eleven subsidiaries, provides SAP TM cloud and digital enterprise services to clients worldwide.
−Removed: Headquartered in Suwanee, Georgia, we typically go to market both vertically by industry and horizontally by product/technology specialties and provide
−Removed: our customers with a wide range of business and technology offerings.
−Removed: We work with customers, primarily within North America, to improve process, reduce costs and increase revenue through the judicious use of technology.
−Removed: The Company earns
−Removed: almost all of its revenue from North America.
−Removed: The Company takes the position that all of its businesses operate as a single segment.
−Removed: Reverse Stock Split
−Removed: A 1-for-25 reverse share split of our outstanding common stock was effected on November 25, 2019 as approved by our Board of Directors and a majority of our shareholders.
−Removed: The reverse share split reduced the
−Removed: number of common shares issued and outstanding from approximately 62.8 million to 2.5 million as of December 31, 2019.
−Removed: As such, all references to share and per share amounts in this Annual Report on Form 10-K have been retroactively restated to
−Removed: reflect the 1-for-25 reverse share split, except for the authorized number of shares of our common stock and the par value per share, which were not affected.
−Removed: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
−Removed: Basis of Preparation.
−Removed: The accompanying audited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared
−Removed: by AMERI pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) regarding annual financial reporting.
−Removed: Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in
−Removed: accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to ensure the information presented
−Removed: is not misleading.
−Removed: The accompanying audited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (which were of a normal, recurring nature) that, in the opinion of management,
−Removed: are necessary to present fairly our financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of and for the interim periods presented.
−Removed: These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes
−Removed: Our comprehensive income (loss) consists of net income (loss) plus or minus any periodic currency translation adjustments.
−Removed: The Company takes the position that all of its businesses operate as a single segment.
−Removed: The Company earns almost all of its revenue from North America.
−Removed: Principles of Consolidation.
−Removed: The consolidated financial statements
−Removed: include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries.
−Removed: All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
−Removed: Use of Estimates.
−Removed: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S.
−Removed: generally accepted accounting
−Removed: principles (“GAAP”) require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
−Removed: amounts of revenues and expenses during those reporting periods.
−Removed: Actual results could differ from those estimates.
−Removed: Revenue Recognition.
−Removed: Revenue Recognition.
−Removed: We recognize revenues as we transfer control of
−Removed: deliverables (products, solutions and services) to our customers in an amount reflecting the consideration to which we expect to be entitled.
−Removed: To recognize revenues, we apply the following five step approach:
−Removed: (1) identify the contract with a
−Removed: customer, (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (5) recognize revenues when a performance obligation
−Removed: is satisfied.
−Removed: We account for a contract when it has approval and commitment from all parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is
−Removed: We apply judgment in determining the customer’s ability and intention to pay based on a variety of factors including the customer’s historical payment experience.
−Removed: For performance obligations where control is transferred over time, revenues are recognized based on the extent of progress towards completion of the performance obligation.
−Removed: The selection of the method to measure progress towards completion
−Removed: requires judgment and is based on the nature of the deliverables to be provided.
−Removed: Revenues related to fixed-price contracts for application development and systems integration services, consulting or other technology services are recognized as the service is performed using
−Removed: the cost to cost method, under which the total value of revenues is recognized on the basis of the percentage that each contract’s total labor cost to date bears to the total expected labor costs.
−Removed: Revenues related to fixed-price application
−Removed: maintenance, testing and business process services are recognized based on our right to invoice for services performed for contracts in which the invoicing is representative of the value being delivered.
−Removed: If our invoicing is not consistent with
−Removed: value delivered, revenues are recognized as the service is performed based on the cost to cost method described above.
−Removed: The cost to cost method requires estimation of future costs, which is updated as the project progresses to reflect the latest
−Removed: available information;
−Removed: such estimates and changes in estimates involve the use of judgment.
−Removed: The cumulative impact of any revision in estimates is reflected in the financial reporting period in which the change in estimate becomes known and any
−Removed: anticipated losses on contracts are recognized immediately.
−Removed: Revenues related to our time-and-materials, transaction-based or volume-based contracts are recognized over the period the services are provided either using an output method such as labor
−Removed: hours, or a method that is otherwise consistent with the way in which value is delivered to the customer.
−Removed: We assess the timing of the transfer of goods or services to the customer as compared to the timing of payments to determine whether a significant financing component exists.
−Removed: As a practical
−Removed: expedient, we do not assess the existence of a significant financing component when the difference between payment and transfer of deliverables is a year or less.
−Removed: If the difference in timing arises for reasons other than the provision of
−Removed: finance to either the customer or us, no financing component is deemed to exist.
−Removed: The primary purpose of our invoicing terms is to provide customers with simplified and predictable ways of purchasing our services, not to receive or provide
−Removed: financing from or to customers.
−Removed: We do not consider set up or transition fees paid upfront by our customers to represent a financing component, as such fees are required to encourage customer commitment to the project and protect us from early
−Removed: termination of the contract.
−Removed: Trade Receivables, Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities.
−Removed: We classify our right to consideration in exchange for deliverables as either a receivable or a contract asset.
−Removed: A receivable is a
−Removed: right to consideration that is unconditional (i.e., only the passage of time is required before payment is due).
−Removed: For example, we recognize a receivable for revenues related to our time and materials and transaction or volume-based contracts
−Removed: when earned regardless of whether amounts have been billed.
−Removed: We present such receivables in “Trade accounts receivable, net” in our consolidated statements of financial position at their net estimated realizable value.
−Removed: A contract asset is a
−Removed: right to consideration that is conditional upon factors other than the passage of time.
−Removed: Contract assets are presented in “Other current assets” in our consolidated statements of financial position and primarily relate to unbilled amounts on
−Removed: fixed-price contracts utilizing the cost to cost method of revenue recognition.
−Removed: Our contract liabilities, or deferred revenue, consist of advance payments and billings in excess of revenues recognized.
−Removed: We classify deferred revenue as current or
−Removed: noncurrent based on the timing of when we expect to recognize the revenues.
−Removed: The noncurrent portion of deferred revenue is included in “Other noncurrent liabilities” in our consolidated statements of financial position.
−Removed: Allowance for Doubtful Accounts.
−Removed: We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts to provide for the estimated amount of receivables that may not be collected.
−Removed: The allowance is based upon an
−Removed: assessment of customer creditworthiness, historical payment experience, the age of outstanding receivables and other applicable factors.
−Removed: We evaluate the collectability of our trade accounts receivable on an on-going basis and write off accounts
−Removed: when they are deemed to be uncollectable.
−Removed: Accounts Receivable.
−Removed: We extend credit to clients based upon management’s assessment of their credit-worthiness
−Removed: on an unsecured basis.
−Removed: We provide an allowance for uncollectible accounts based on historical experience and management evaluation of trend analysis.
−Removed: We include any balances that are determined to be uncollectible in allowance for doubtful
−Removed: Warrant Liability :
−Removed: The Company accounts for the warrants issued in connection with the July 25, 2018 Initial
−Removed: Securities Purchase Agreement in accordance with the guidance on Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity, which provides that the Company classifies the warrant instrument as a liability
−Removed: at its fair value and adjusts the instrument to fair value at each reporting period.
−Removed: This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the Company’s statement

+Added: TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
of operations
−Removed: The fair value of warrants issued by the Company in connection with private placements of securities has been estimated using the warrants quoted market price.
−Removed: Business Combinations.
−Removed: We account for business combinations using the acquisition method, which requires the
−Removed: identification of the acquirer, the determination of the acquisition date and the allocation of the purchase price paid by the acquirer to the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, including any
−Removed: contingent consideration and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at their acquisition date fair values.
−Removed: Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired, including the amount assigned to
−Removed: identifiable intangible assets.
−Removed: Identifiable intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their useful lives.
−Removed: Acquisition-related costs are expensed in the periods in which the costs are incurred.
−Removed: The results of operations of acquired
−Removed: businesses are included in our consolidated financial statements from the acquisition date.
−Removed: Goodwill and Intangible Assets.
−Removed: We evaluate goodwill and intangible assets for impairment at least annually, or
−Removed: as circumstances warrant.
−Removed: Goodwill is evaluated at the reporting unit level by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount.
−Removed: For purchased intangible assets, if our annual qualitative assessment indicates possible
−Removed: impairment, we test the assets for impairment by comparing the fair value of such assets to their carrying value.
−Removed: In determining the fair value, we utilize various estimates and assumptions, including discount rates and projections of future
−Removed: If an impairment is indicated, a write down to the implied fair value of goodwill or fair value of intangible asset is recorded.
−Removed: Long-lived assets, which include property, plant and equipment, and certain other assets to be held
−Removed: and used by us, are reviewed when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable based on estimated future cash flows.
−Removed: If this assessment indicates that the carrying values will not be
−Removed: recoverable, as determined based on undiscounted cash flows over the remaining useful lives, an impairment loss is recognized based on the fair value of the asset.
−Removed: Valuation of Contingent Earn-out Consideration.
−Removed: Acquisitions may include contingent consideration payments based
−Removed: on the achievement of certain future financial performance measures of the acquired company.
−Removed: Contingent consideration is required to be recognized at fair value as of the acquisition date.
−Removed: We estimate the fair value of these liabilities based
−Removed: on financial projections of the acquired companies and estimated probabilities of achievement.
−Removed: We believe our estimates and assumptions are reasonable, however, there is significant judgment involved.
−Removed: We evaluate, on a routine, periodic basis,
−Removed: the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration and changes in estimated fair value, subsequent to the initial fair value estimate at the time of the acquisition, will be reflected in income or expense in the consolidated statements of
−Removed: Changes in the fair value of contingent consideration obligations may result from changes in discount periods and rates, changes in the timing and amount of revenue and/or earnings estimates and changes in probability assumptions
−Removed: with respect to the likelihood of achieving the various earn-out criteria.
−Removed: Any changes in the estimated fair value of contingent consideration may have a material impact on our operating results.
−Removed: Stock-Based Compensation.
−Removed: Stock-based compensation expense for awards of equity instruments to employees and
−Removed: non-employee directors is determined based on the grant-date fair value of those awards.
−Removed: We recognize these compensation costs net of an estimated forfeiture rate over the requisite service period of the award.
−Removed: Forfeitures are estimated on the
−Removed: date of grant and revised if actual or expected forfeiture activity differs materially from original estimates.
−Removed: Income Taxes.
−Removed: We provide for income taxes utilizing the asset and liability method of accounting.
−Removed: method, deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each balance sheet date, based on enacted tax
−Removed: laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income.
−Removed: If it is determined that it is more likely than not that future tax benefits associated with a deferred income tax asset will
−Removed: not be realized, a valuation allowance is provided.
−Removed: The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in the tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
−Removed: Tax benefits earned on employee
−Removed: stock awards in excess of recorded stock-based compensation expense are credited to additional paid-in capital.
−Removed: Our provision for income taxes also includes the impact of provisions established for uncertain income tax positions, as well as the
−Removed: related interest.
−Removed: Comprehensive Income (Loss).
−Removed: Our comprehensive income (loss) consists of net income (loss) plus or minus any
−Removed: periodic currency translation adjustments.
−Removed: Recent Accounting Pronouncements
−Removed: In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU No.
−Removed: 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820),
−Removed: Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement” .
−Removed: This ASU removed the following disclosure requirements:
−Removed: (1) the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair
−Removed: value hierarchy;
−Removed: (2) the policy for timing of transfers between levels;
−Removed: and (3) the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements.
−Removed: Additionally, this update added the following disclosure requirements:
−Removed: (1) the changes in
−Removed: unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income and loss for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements held at the end of the reporting period;
−Removed: (2) the range and weighted average of significant unobservable
−Removed: inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements.
−Removed: For certain unobservable inputs, an entity may disclose other quantitative information (such as the median or arithmetic average) in lieu of the weighted average if the entity
−Removed: determines that other quantitative information would be a more reasonable and rational method to reflect the distribution of unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements.
−Removed: 2018-13 will be effective for fiscal
−Removed: years beginning after December 15, 2019 with early adoption permitted.
−Removed: In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No.
−Removed: 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326):
−Removed: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial
−Removed: Instruments” .
−Removed: This ASU requires that credit losses be reported using an expected losses model rather than the incurred losses model that is currently used, and establishes additional disclosures related to credit risks.
−Removed: available-for-sale debt securities with unrealized losses, this standard now requires allowances to be recorded instead of reducing the amortized cost of the investment.
−Removed: ASU 2016-13 limits the amount of credit losses to be recognized for
−Removed: available-for-sale debt securities to the amount by which carrying value exceeds fair value and requires the reversal of previously recognized credit losses if fair value increases.
−Removed: ASU 2016-13 will be effective for
−Removed: fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 with early adoption permitted , and requires adoption using a modified retrospective approach, with certain exceptions.
−Removed: Based on the composition of the Company’s
−Removed: investment portfolio as of September 30, 2019, current market conditions and historical credit loss activity, the adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
−Removed: Additionally, for trade receivables, due to their short duration and the credit profile of the Company’s customers, the effect of transitioning from the incurred losses model to the expected losses model is not expected to be material.
−Removed: New Standards to Be Implemented

+Added: December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, COVID-19, was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China.
+Added: Since then, COVID-19 has
+Added: spread to multiple countries, including the United States.
+Added: As the COVID-19 continues to spread in the United States, the Company
+Added: may experience disruptions that could severely impact the Company.
+Added: The global outbreak of COVID-19 continues to rapidly evolve.
+Added: The extent to which COVID-19 may impact the Company’s business will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain
+Added: and cannot be predicted with confidence, such as the ultimate geographic spread of the disease, the duration of the outbreak,
+Added: travel restrictions and social distancing in the United States and other countries, business closures or business disruptions
+Added: and the effectiveness of actions taken in the United States to contain and treat the disease.
+Added: The Company is in process of monitoring

+Added: preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S.
+Added: GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
+Added: the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and expenses during the periods reported.
+Added: By their nature, these estimates are subject to measurement uncertainty and the effects on the financial statements of changes
+Added: in such estimates in future periods could be significant.
+Added: Significant areas requiring management’s estimates and assumptions
+Added: include determining the fair value of transactions involving common stock and the valuation of stock-based compensation.
+Added: results could differ from those estimates.
+Added: Currency Translation
+Added: reporting currency of the Company is the United States dollar.
+Added: The financial statements of companies located outside of the U.S.
+Added: are measured in their functional currency, which is the local currency.
+Added: The functional currency of the Company is the Canadian
+Added: Monetary assets and liabilities are translated using public exchange rates at the balance sheet date.
+Added: Income and expense
+Added: items are translated using average monthly exchange rates.
+Added: Shareholders’
+Added: equity accounts and non-monetary assets are translated
+Added: at their historical exchange rates.
+Added: Translation adjustments are included in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the accompanying
+Added: balance sheets.
+Added: and cash equivalents
+Added: Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
+Added: The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.
+Added: Company has finite-lived intangible assets.
+Added: Finite-lived intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives.
+Added: and development costs are expensed as incurred.
+Added: Following initial recognition of the finite-lived intangible asset, the asset
+Added: is carried at cost less any accumulated amortization.
+Added: Amortization of the asset begins when the asset is available for use.
+Added: is recorded in general and administrative expenses on the Company’s consolidated statement of operations.
+Added: The Company periodically
+Added: reviews its owned intangible assets for recoverability.
+Added: of Long Term Assets
+Added: The Company evaluates the carrying value
+Added: of long-lived assets subject to amortization whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that an impairment may exist.
+Added: An impairment charge is recognized when the asset’s carrying value exceeds its net undiscounted future cash flows and its fair
+Added: market value.
+Added: The amount of the charge is the difference between the asset’s carrying value and fair market value.
+Added: On February 25, 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-02,
Leases (Topic 842).
−Removed: This new standard replaces the existing guidance on leases and requires the lessee to recognize a
−Removed: right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with lease terms equal to or greater than twelve months.
−Removed: For finance leases, the lessee would recognize interest expense and amortization of the right-of-use asset, and for operating
−Removed: leases, the lessee would recognize total lease expense on a straight-line basis.
−Removed: This standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2018.
−Removed: Upon adoption, entities will
−Removed: be required to use a modified retrospective transition which provides for certain practical expedients.
−Removed: Entities are required to apply the new standard at the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented.
−Removed: Early adoption of this new
−Removed: standard is permitted.
−Removed: The Company is currently evaluating the effect this new standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
−Removed: The Company does not expect the requirement to recognize a right-of-use asset
−Removed: and a lease liability for operating leases to have a material impact on the presentation of its consolidated statements of financial position.
−Removed: On November 17, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230):
−Removed: Restricted Cash, which is intended to reduce diversity in the presentation of
−Removed: restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows.
−Removed: This new standard requires that restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents be included as components of total cash and cash equivalents as presented on the
−Removed: statement of cash flows.
−Removed: As a result, entities will no longer present transfers between cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows.
−Removed: ASU 2016-18 is effective for annual periods
−Removed: beginning after December 15, 2017 including interim periods within those fiscal years, but earlier adoption is permitted.
−Removed: The Company does not believe the adoption of this new standard will have a material impact on its consolidated financial
−Removed: In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No.
−Removed: 2017-04, simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.
−Removed: Under this new standard, goodwill impairment would be measured as the amount
−Removed: by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying value of goodwill.
−Removed: This ASU eliminates existing guidance that requires an entity to determine goodwill impairment by calculating the implied fair
−Removed: value of goodwill by hypothetically assigning the fair value of a reporting unit to all of its assets and liabilities as if that reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination.
−Removed: This update is effective for annual periods beginning
−Removed: after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those periods.
−Removed: Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment test performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017.
−Removed: Based on the Company’s preliminary assessment of the
−Removed: foregoing update, it does not anticipate such update will have a material impact its financial statements.
−Removed: Standards Implemented
−Removed: In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230):
−Removed: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (ASU 2016-15), which clarifies
−Removed: how companies present and classify certain cash receipts and cash payments in the statement of cash flows.
−Removed: The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years.
−Removed: has implemented the above standard effective this quarter and has made the respective disclosures in Statement of Cash Flow.
−Removed: In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),”
−Removed: which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605).” This ASU requires an entity to recognize revenue when goods are transferred, or services are provided to customers in an amount that reflects the
−Removed: consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.
−Removed: This ASU also requires disclosures enabling users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue
−Removed: and cash flows arising from contracts with customers.
−Removed: In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), deferral of the Effective Date.” With the issuance of ASU 2015-14, the new revenue guidance
−Removed: ASU 2014-09 will be effective for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2018, using one of two prescribed retrospective methods.
−Removed: In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, “Revenue from
−Removed: Contracts with Customer (Topic 606), Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing.” The guidance is applicable from the date of applicability of ASU 2014-09.
−Removed: This ASU finalizes the amendments to the guidance on the new revenue standard on
−Removed: the identification of performance obligations and accounting for licenses of intellectual property.
−Removed: In December 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-20, “Technical Corrections and Improvements (Topic 606)” which is applicable from the date of
−Removed: applicability of ASU 2014-09.
−Removed: This guidance provides optional exemptions from the disclosure requirement for remaining performance obligations for specific situations in which an entity need not estimate variable consideration to recognize
−Removed: In May 2016, FASB issued ASU No.
−Removed: 2016-12, “Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients”.
−Removed: This amendment clarified certain aspects of Topic 606 and will be applicable from the date of applicability of ASU 2014-09.
−Removed: The company has
−Removed: implemented the above standard.

−Removed: price paid by the Additional Purchaser on August 21, 2018 represents the entire purchase price for the Additional Shares and the Additional Purchaser Warrants (excluding the exercise price to be paid upon the exercise of Additional Purchaser

−Removed: The Additional Purchaser

−Removed: consideration to the Company.
−Removed: The Additional Purchaser Warrants and the Additional Purchaser’s pre-funded warrant are currently exercisable, subject to ownership limitations described below, and expire five years after the date of issuance.
−Removed: Warrants contain provisions for the adjustment of the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of the warrant and of the exercise price in the event of stock dividends, splits, mergers, asset sales, tender or exchange offers,
−Removed: reclassifications, reorganizations or recapitalizations, combinations, or the like.
−Removed: The per share purchase price (through the pre-funded Warrants) and Warrant exercise price was automatically adjusted lower (the “Price Adjustment”) to 80% (with respect to
−Removed: the purchase price of the Common Stock) and 110% (with respect to the exercise price of the Warrants) of the lowest of the average daily prices on the 6 trading days following each of:
−Removed: (i) the date our stockholders approved the Private
−Removed: Placement transaction (such approval was obtained on September 27, 2018) and (ii) the date a registration statement covering the resale of securities being issued in the Private Placement was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange
−Removed: Commission (the “SEC”) (such registration statement on Form S-1, file no.
−Removed: 333-227011, was declared effective on October 23, 2018 (the “Effective Registration”)).
−Removed: Due to the Price Adjustment, the lowest purchase price of $0.29 for the Common
−Removed: Stock issued at closing under the Purchase Agreements and pursuant to the pre-funded Warrants was achieved, and all 910,345 shares registered under the Effective Registration as issued or issuable under the Purchase Agreements and pursuant to
−Removed: the pre-funded Warrants were issued to the selling stockholders.
−Removed: In addition, the exercise price of the Purchaser Warrants was subject to the Price Adjustment, which has resulted in 901,766 shares of common stock being issuable under the
−Removed: Purchaser Warrants when exercised.
−Removed: The Purchaser Warrants have been fully adjusted and neither the exercise price or the number of shares issuable under such warrants are subject to further adjustment, except pursuant to typical anti-dilution
−Removed: In accordance with the exercise provisions of the Purchaser Warrants, the 901,766 shares issuable under the Purchaser Warrants following the full Price Adjustment was
−Removed: determined by holding constant the aggregate exercise price of $7,040,534.40 for the Purchaser Warrants at the time of closing of the Private Placement (which was calculated based on 176,013 total Purchaser Warrants at the closing date
−Removed: multiplied by the exercise price of $40, which equals $7,040,534.40), and then dividing the $7,040,534.40 aggregate exercise price by the post-Price Adjustment exercise price of $7.81 to get 901,766 shares.
−Removed: Under the terms of all of the Warrants, a selling stockholder may not exercise Warrants to the extent such exercise would cause such selling stockholder, together with its
−Removed: affiliates and attribution parties, to beneficially own a number of shares of common stock which would exceed 4.99% or 9.99%, as applicable, of our then outstanding common stock following such exercise, excluding for purposes of such

−Removed: In addition, the Warrants have transaction-specific anti-dilution provisions.
−Removed: The Company has allocated the aggregate gross proceeds received to the Purchaser Warrants, the Initial Shares issued and the pre-funded warrants.
−Removed: Due to the reset features
−Removed: present in the Purchaser Warrants along with the existence of down-round protection in the event of future financing transactions at lower prices, the Purchaser Warrants were determined to be derivative financial instruments and therefore, have
−Removed: been recorded as a liability (“Warrant Liability”) in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
−Removed: The Purchaser Warrants were initially recorded at fair value with fair value determined utilizing a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the
−Removed: following assumptions:
