−Removed: ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies
−Removed: and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application.
−Removed: This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within
−Removed: those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020.
−Removed: The Company has completed its evaluation process and the January 1, 2021 adoption
−Removed: did not have a material impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
+Added: The Company has made estimates and judgments affecting the amounts reported in the Company’s

+Added: The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially
+Added: from the Company’s estimates.
+Added: The condensed consolidated financial information is unaudited but reflects all normal adjustments
+Added: that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to provide a fair statement of results for the interim periods presented.
+Added: These condensed
+Added: consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual
+Added: Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on
+Added: April 15, 2022.
+Added: The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 was derived from the Company’s audited 2021 financial
+Added: statements contained in the above referenced Form 10-K.
+Added: Results of the three months ended March 31, 2022, are not necessarily indicative
+Added: of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2022.
+Added: Significant Accounting
+Added: have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies to those previously disclosed in the 2021 Annual
+Added: Reclassifications
+Added: prior period amounts have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform to the current-period financial statement presentation.
+Added: These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported results of operations.
+Added: Accounting Standards
+Added: In May 2021, the Financial
+Added: Accountings Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2021-04, “Earnings Per Share
+Added: (Topic 260), Debt-Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and
+Added: Hedging-Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815- 40):
+Added: Issuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of
+Added: Freestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options.” The guidance became effective for the Company on January 1, 2022.
+Added: adopted the guidance on January 1, 2022, and has concluded the adoption did not have a material impact on its unaudited condensed consolidated
+Added: financial statements.
+Added: In June 2016, the FASB issued
+Added: 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses,” (“ASU No.
+Added: 2016-13”) to improve information on credit
+Added: losses for financial assets and net investment in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income.
+Added: ASU 2016-13 replaces

+Added: Equity (Subtopic 815-40)-Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity” (“ASU 2020-06”).
+Added: The ASU simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP.
+Added: Consequently,
+Added: more convertible debt instruments will be reported as a single liability instrument with no separate accounting for embedded conversion
+Added: ASU 2020-06 removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope
+Added: exception, which will permit more equity contracts to qualify for it.
+Added: ASU 2020-06 also simplifies the diluted net income per share calculation
+Added: in certain areas.
+Added: The amendments in ASU 2020-06 are effective for smaller reporting companies as defined by the SEC for fiscal years beginning
+Added: after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years.
+Added: Effective January 1, 2022, the Company early adopted ASU
+Added: 2020-06 using the modified retrospective approach, which resulted in no impact on its consolidated financial statements.
+Added: In October 2021, the FASB
+Added: issued ASU 2021-08, “Business Combinations (Topic 805), Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with
+Added: Customers,” which requires contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination to be recognized and measured
+Added: by the acquirer on the acquisition date in accordance with ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” The guidance
+Added: will result in the acquirer recognizing contract assets and contract liabilities at the same amounts recorded by the acquiree.
+Added: should be applied prospectively to acquisitions occurring on or after the effective date.
+Added: The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning
+Added: after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years.
+Added: Early adoption is permitted, including in interim periods,
+Added: for any financial statements that have not yet been issued.
+Added: The Company is currently evaluating this guidance to determine the impact
+Added: it may have on its consolidated financial statements.
+Added: In November 2021, the FASB
+Added: issued ASU 2021-10, “Government Assistance (Topic 832),” which requires annual disclosures that increase the transparency
+Added: of transactions involving government grants, including (1) the types of transactions, (2) the accounting for those transactions, and (3)
+Added: the effect of those transactions on an entity’s financial statements.
+Added: The amendments in this update are effective for financial
