(Unaudited)
NOTE
1. NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature
of Operations:
Digital
Ally, Inc. (with its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Digital Ally International, Inc., Shield Products, LLC, Digital Ally Healthcare, LLC ,
collectively, “Digital Ally,” “Digital,” and the “Company”) produces digital video imaging, storage
products and disinfectant and related safety products for use in law enforcement, security and commercial applications. The Company’s
products include, among others; in-car digital video/audio recorders contained in a rear-view mirror for use in law enforcement and commercial
fleets; a system that provides its law enforcement customers with audio/video surveillance from multiple vantage points and hands-free
automatic activation of body-worn cameras and in-car video systems; a miniature digital video system designed to be worn on an individual’s
body; and cloud storage solutions. The Company has recently added two new lines of branded products: (1) the ThermoVu™ line, which
is a line of self-contained temperature monitoring stations that provides alerts and controls facility access when an individual’s
temperature exceeds a pre-set threshold and (2) the Shield™ disinfectant and cleanser line, which is for use against viruses and
bacteria and which we began offering to the Company’s law enforcement and commercial customers beginning late in the second quarter
of 2020. Both product lines are manufactured by third parties. In addition, the Company has active research and development programs
to adapt its technologies to other applications. It can integrate electronic, radio, computer, mechanical, and multi-media technologies
to create unique solutions to address needs in a variety of other industries and markets, including mass transit, school bus, taxicab
and the military. The Company sells its products to law enforcement agencies, private security customers and organizations, and consumer
and commercial fleet operators through direct sales domestically and third-party distributors internationally.
The
Company was originally incorporated in Nevada on December 13, 2000 as Vegas Petra, Inc. and had no operations until 2004. On November
30, 2004, Vegas Petra, Inc. entered into a Plan of Merger with Digital Ally, Inc., at which time the merged entity was renamed Digital
Ally, Inc.
Basis
of Presentation:
The
condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United
States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do
not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for
a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021.
The
balance sheet at December 31, 2020 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States for complete financial statements.
For
further information, refer to the audited financial statements and footnotes included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2020, and the unaudited financial statements and footnotes included in the Company’s quarterly
report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2021.
COVID-19
pandemic:
The
COVID-19 pandemic represents a fluid situation that presents a wide range of potential impacts of varying durations for different global
geographies, including locations where the Company has offices, employees, customers, vendors and other suppliers and business
partners.
Like
most US-based businesses, the COVID-19 pandemic and efforts to mitigate the same began to have impacts on our business in March 2020.
By that time, much of our first fiscal quarter was completed. During the remainder of 2020 and the first quarter of 2021, the
Company observed decreases in demand from certain customers, including primarily law-enforcement and commercial customers. However,
the Company are beginning to experience an increase in demand for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to the same period in 2020.
Given
the fact that the Company’s products are sold through a variety of distribution channels, the Company expects its
sales will experience more volatility as a result of the changing and less predictable operational needs of many customers as a result
of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company is aware that many companies, including many of its suppliers and customers, are
reporting or predicting negative impacts from COVID-19 on future operating results. Although the Company observed significant
declines in demand for its products from certain customers during 2020 and the first quarter of 2021, the Company believes
that the impact of the COVID-19 remains too fluid and unknown, hindering the Company from determining the long-term
demand for current products. The Company also cannot be certain how demand may shift over time as the impacts of the COVID-19
pandemic may go through several phases of varying severity and duration.
In light
of broader macro-economic risks and already known impacts on certain industries that use the Company’s products and services,
the Company has taken, and continue to take targeted steps to lower its operating expenses because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Company continues to monitor the impacts of COVID-19 on its operations closely and this situation could change based
on a significant number of factors that are not entirely within its control and are discussed in this and other sections of this
quarterly report on Form 10-Q. The Company does not expect there to be material changes to its assets on its balance
sheet or its ability to timely account for those assets. Further, in connection with the preparation of this quarterly report
on Form 10-Q, the Company reviewed the potential impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on goodwill and intangible assets and have determined
there to be no material impact at this time. The Company has also reviewed the potential impacts on future risks to the business
as it relates to collections, returns and other business-related items.
7
To date,
travel restrictions and border closures have not materially impacted its ability to obtain inventory or manufacture or deliver
products or services to customers. However, if such restrictions become more severe, they could negatively impact those activities in
a way that would harm the business over the long term. Travel restrictions impacting people can restrain our ability to assist
its customers and distributors as well as impact its ability to develop new distribution channels, but at present the
Company does not expect these restrictions on personal travel to be material to our business operations or financial results. The
Company has taken steps to restrain and monitor its operating expenses and therefore it does not expect any such impacts
to materially change the relationship between costs and revenues.
Like
most companies, the Company has taken a range of actions with respect to how it operates to assure it complies with
government restrictions and guidelines as well as best practices to protect the health and well-being of its employees and its
ability to continue operating its business effectively. To date, the Company has been able to operate its business
effectively using these measures and to maintain internal controls as documented and posted. The Company also has not experienced
challenges in maintaining business continuity and does not expect to incur material expenditures to do so. However, the impacts
of COVID-19 and efforts to mitigate the same have remained unpredictable and it remains possible that challenges may arise in the future.
The
actions the Company has taken so far during the COVID-19 pandemic include, but are not limited to:
●
requiring
all employees who can work from home to work from home;
●
increasing
its IT networking capability to best assure employees can work effectively outside the office; and
●
for
employees who must perform essential functions in one of its offices:
●
having
employees maintain a distance of at least six feet from other employees whenever possible;
●
having
employees work in dedicated shifts to lower the risk all employees who perform similar tasks might become infected by COVID-19;
●
having
employees stay segregated from other employees in the office with whom they require no interaction; and
●
requiring
employees to wear masks while they are in the office whenever possible.
The Company currently
believes revenue for the year ending December 31, 2021 will still be impacted due to the conditions noted. In April 2020,
the Company implemented a COVID-19 mitigation plan designed to further reduce its operating expenses during the pandemic.
Actions taken to date include work hour and salary reductions for senior management. These cost reductions are in addition to the significant
restructuring actions which the Company continues to implement and develop throughout 2021. Based on the Company’s
current cash position, its projected cash flow from operations and its cost reduction and cost containment efforts
to date, the Company believes that it will have sufficient capital and or have access to sufficient capital through public
and private equity and debt offerings to sustain operations for a period of one year following the date of this filing. If business interruptions
resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic were to be prolonged or expanded in scope, the business, financial condition, results of
operations and cash flows would be negatively impacted. The Company will continue to actively monitor this situation and will
implement actions necessary to maintain business continuity.
Basis
of Consolidation:
The
accompanying financial statements include the consolidated accounts of Digital Ally and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Digital Ally International,
Inc., Shield Products, LLC , and Digital Ally Healthcare, LLC. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated during
consolidation.
The
Company formed Digital Ally International, Inc. during August 2009 to facilitate the export sales of its products. The Company formed
Shield Products, LLC in May 2020 to facilitate the sales of its Shield™ line of disinfectant/cleanser products and ThermoVu™
line of temperature monitoring equipment. The Company formed Digital Ally Healthcare, LLC in June 2021 to facilitate its new medical
billing division.
8
Revenue
Recognition:
The
Company applies the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers , and all
related appropriate guidance. The Company recognizes revenue under the core principle to depict the transfer of control to its customers
in an amount reflecting the consideration to which it expects to be entitled. In order to achieve that core principle, the Company applies
the following five-step approach: (1) identify the contract with a 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
revenue when a performance obligation is satisfied.
The
Company considers customer purchase orders, which in some cases are governed by master sales agreements, to be the contracts with the
customer. In situations where sales are to a distributor, the Company had concluded its contracts are with the distributor as the Company
holds a contract bearing enforceable rights and obligations only with the distributor. As part of its consideration for the contract,
the Company evaluates certain factors including the customers’ ability to pay (or credit risk). For each contract, the Company
considers the promise to transfer products, each of which is distinct, to be the identified performance obligations. In determining the
transaction price, the Company evaluates whether the price is subject to refund or adjustment to determine the net consideration to which
it expects to be entitled. As the Company’s standard payment terms are less than one year, it has elected the practical expedient
under ASC 606-10-32-18 to not assess whether a contract has a significant financing component. The Company allocates the transaction
price to each distinct product based on its relative standalone selling price. The product price as specified on the purchase order is
considered the standalone selling price as it is an observable input which depicts the price as if sold to a similar customer in similar
circumstances. Revenue is recognized when control of the product is transferred to the customer ( i.e. , when the Company’s
performance obligations is satisfied), which typically occurs at shipment. Further in determining whether control has been transferred,
the Company considers if there is a present right to payment and legal title, along with risks and rewards of ownership having transferred
to the customer. Customers do not have a right to return the product other than for warranty reasons for which they would only receive
repair services or replacement product. The Company has also elected the practical expedient under ASC 340-40-25-4 to expense commissions
for product sales when incurred as the amortization period of the commission asset the Company would have otherwise recognized is less
than one year.
The
Company sells its products and services to law enforcement and commercial customers in the following manner:
●
Sales
to domestic customers are made direct to the end customer (typically a law enforcement agency or a commercial customer) through its
sales force, which is composed of its employees. Revenue is recorded when the product is shipped to the end customer.
●
Sales
to international customers are made through independent distributors who purchase products from the Company at a wholesale price
and sell to the end user (typically law enforcement agencies or a commercial customer) at a retail price. The distributor retains
the margin as its compensation for its role in the transaction. The distributor generally maintains product inventory, customer receivables
and all related risks and rewards of ownership. Accordingly, upon application of steps one through five above, revenue is recorded
when the product is shipped to the distributor consistent with the terms of the distribution agreement.
●
Repair
parts and services for domestic and international customers are generally handled by its inside customer service employees. Revenue
is recognized upon shipment of the repair parts and acceptance of the service or materials by the end customer.
Sales
taxes collected on products sold are excluded from revenues and are reported as accrued expenses in the accompanying balance sheets until
payments are remitted.
Service
and other revenue is comprised of revenues from extended warranties, repair services, cloud revenue and software revenue. Revenue is
recognized upon shipment of the product and acceptance of the service or materials by the end customer for repair services. Revenue for
extended warranty, cloud service or other software-based products is over the term of the contract warranty or service period. A time-elapsed
method is used to measure progress because the Company transfers control evenly over the contractual period. Accordingly, the fixed consideration
related to these revenues is generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the contract term, as long as the other revenue recognition
criteria have been met.
9
Contracts
with some of the Company’s customers contain multiple performance obligations that are distinct and accounted for separately. The
transaction price is allocated to the separate performance obligations on a relative standalone selling price (“SSP”). The
Company determined SSP for all the performance obligations using observable inputs, such as standalone sales and historical pricing.
SSP is consistent with the Company’s overall pricing objectives, taking into consideration the type of service being provided.
SSP also reflects the amount the Company would charge for the performance obligation if it were sold separately in a standalone sale.
Multiple performance obligations consist of product, software, cloud subscriptions and extended warranties.
The
Company’s multiple performance obligations may include future in-car or body-worn camera devices to be delivered at defined points
within a multi-year contract, and in those arrangements, the Company allocates total arrangement consideration over the life of the multi-year
contract to future deliverables using management’s best estimate of selling price.
Contract
liabilities consist of deferred revenue and include payments received in advance of performance under the contract and are reported separately
as current liabilities and non-current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Such amounts consist of extended warranty
contracts, prepaid cloud services and prepaid installation services and are generally recognized as the respective performance obligations
are satisfied.
Use
of Estimates:
The
preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America 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 financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Management utilizes various other estimates, including but not
limited to determining the estimated lives of long-lived assets, determining the potential impairment of long-lived assets, the fair
value of warrants, options, proceeds investment agreement and convertible debt, the recognition of revenue, inventory valuation reserve,
the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and other legal claims and contingencies. The results of any changes in accounting estimates
are reflected in the financial statements in the period in which the changes become evident. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically,
and the effects of revisions are reflected in the period that they are determined to be necessary.
Cash
and cash equivalents:
Cash
and cash equivalents include funds on hand, in bank and short-term investments with original maturities of ninety (90) days or less.
The
Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in banks insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) in accounts that
at times may be in excess of the federally insured limit of $ 250,000
per bank. The Company minimizes this risk by
placing its cash deposits with major financial institutions. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the uninsured balance amounted to
$ 57,265,079 and
$ 3,653,192 ,
respectively.
Accounts
Receivable:
Accounts
receivable are carried at original invoice amount less an estimate made for doubtful receivables based on a review of all outstanding
amounts on a weekly basis. The Company determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by regularly evaluating individual customer receivables
and considering a customer’s financial condition, credit history, and current economic conditions. One individual customer receivable
balance exceeded 10 % of total accounts receivable as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, which totaled $ 287,000 or 32 % and $ 319,000
or 19 % of total accounts receivable, respectively.
10
Trade
receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of trade receivables previously written off are recorded when received.
A trade receivable is considered to be past due if any portion of the receivable balance is outstanding for more than thirty (30) days
beyond terms. No interest is charged on overdue trade receivables.
Segments
of Business:
Management
has determined that its operations are comprised of one reportable segment: the sale of digital audio and video recording and speed detection
devices. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, sales by geographic area were as follows:

Recent
Accounting Pronouncements:
In
June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13,
“Financial Instruments – Credit Losses” to improve information on credit losses for financial assets and net investment
in leases that are not accounted for at fair value through net income. ASU 2016-13 replaces the current incurred loss impairment methodology
with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses. In April 2019 and May 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-04, “Codification
Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and Topic 825, Financial Instruments”
and ASU No. 2019-05, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief” which provided additional
implementation guidance on the previously issued ASU. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, “Financial Instruments - Credit
Loss (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842),” which defers the effective date for public filers
that are considered small reporting companies (“SRC”) as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)
to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Since the Company is an SRC,
implementation will not be required until January 1, 2023. The Company will continue to evaluate the effect that adopting ASU 2016-13
will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In
2020, FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06 to simplify the accounting for convertible debt instruments as the current accounting guidance was
determined to be unnecessarily complex and difficult to navigate. The ASU primarily does three things: (1) The ASU eliminates the beneficial
conversion feature model and the cash conversion model. The elimination of these models will result in more convertible instruments (convertible
debt instruments or convertible preferred stock instruments) being reported as a single liability instrument. The ASU also makes targeted
improvements to the related disclosures, (2) The ASU eliminates certain settlement conditions that are required to qualify for derivative
scope exception which will allow for less equity contracts to be accounted for as a derivative and (3) The ASU aligns the diluted EPS
calculation for convertible instruments by requiring the use of the if-converted method and requiring share settlement be included in
the calculation when the contract includes an option of cash or share settlement. ASU
No. 2020-06 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021 with early adoption permitted for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2020. Management has not early-adopted this new standard and continues to evaluate the impact of adopting ASU 2020-06
will have on its consolidated financial statements.
In
2020, FASB issued ASU No. 2020-01 which represents a consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force and it clarifies certain items related
to ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments—Overall (Subtopic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial
Liabilities. The ASU (1) clarifies that when an entity is either applying the equity method or upon discontinuing the equity method it
should consider observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment with the same issuer for valuing
basis of the investment and (2) clarifies that when determining the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchased options an
entity should not consider, whether upon settlement or exercise, if the underlying securities would be accounted for under the equity
method or fair value option. ASU No. 2020-01 is effective
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this update for the quarter ended
March 31, 2021, with no material effect on the financials.
11
In
December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes - simplifying the accounting for income taxes (Topic 740), which is meant
to simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740, Income Taxes. The
amendment also improves consistent application and simplifies GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance.
The adoption of this standard did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operations.
Warrant
Derivative Liabilities
In
accordance with FASB ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging: Contracts in an Entities Own Equity, entities must consider whether to classify
contracts that may be settled in its own stock, such as warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock, as equity of the entity or as an
asset or liability. If an event that is not within the entity’s control could require net cash settlement, then the contract should
be classified as an asset or a liability rather than as equity. We have determined because the terms of the warrants issued during the
first quarter of 2021, and remain outstanding, include a provision that entitles all the warrant holders to receive cash for their warrants
in the event of a qualifying cash tender offer, while only certain of the holders of the underlying shares of common stock would be entitled
to cash, our warrants should be classified as liability measured at fair value, with changes in fair value each period reported in earnings.
Volatility in the price of our common stock may result in significant changes in the value of the derivatives and resulting gains and
losses on our statement of operations.

Small Business Administration Notes .
On
May 4, 2020, the Company issued a promissory note in connection with the receipt of the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”)
Loan of $ 1,418,900
(the “PPP Loan”) under the Small
Business Administration’s (the “SBA”) PPP Program under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act ( the
“CARES Act”). The PPP Loan has a two -year
term and bears interest at a rate of 1.0 %
per annum. Monthly principal and interest payments were deferred for nine months after the date of disbursement and total $ 79,851
per month thereafter. The PPP Loan could have
been prepaid at any time prior to maturity with no prepayment penalties. The promissory note contained events of default and other provisions
customary for a loan of this type. The PPP provides that the PPP Loan may be partially or wholly forgiven if the funds are used for certain
qualifying expenses as described in the CARES Act. The Company intends to use the majority of the PPP Loan amount for qualifying expenses
and to apply for forgiveness of the PPP Loan in accordance with the terms of the CARES Act. The Company used the majority of the PPP
Loan amount for qualifying expenses and to apply for forgiveness of the PPP Loan in accordance with the terms of the CARES Act. The Company
applied for forgiveness of the PPP Loan and December 10, 2020, the Company was fully forgiven of its $ 1,418,900
PPP Loan. Additionally, the Company was fully
forgiven, during the three months ended June 30, 2021, of its $ 10,000
EIDL advance received with the PPP Loan.
On
May 12, 2020, the Company received $ 150,000 in loan funding from the SBA under the EIDL program administered by the SBA, which program
was expanded pursuant to the recently enacted CARES Act. The EIDL is evidenced by a secured promissory note, dated May 8, 2020, in the
original principal amount of $ 150,000 with the SBA, the lender.
Under
the terms of the note issued under the EIDL program, interest accrues on the outstanding principal at the rate of 3.75 % per annum. The
term of such note is thirty years, though it may be payable sooner upon an event of default under such note. Monthly principal and interest
payments are deferred for twelve months after the date of disbursement and total $ 731 per month thereafter. Such note may be prepaid
in part or in full, at any time, without penalty. The Company granted the secured party a continuing interest in and to any and all collateral,
including but not limited to tangible and intangible personal property.
Contingent Consideration Promissory Note
On June 30, 2021, Nobility
Healthcare, LLC, a subsidiary of the Company, issued a contingent consideration promissory note (the “Note”) in connection
with the Stock Purchase Agreement between Nobility and Elite Medical Billing Specialists (“Elite”) of $ 350,000 . The note
has a three -year term and bears interest at a rate of 3.00 % per annum. Quarterly principal and interest payments are deferred for six
months and is due in equal quarterly installments on the seventh business day of each quarter. The principal amount of the Note is subject
to an earn-out adjustment, being the difference between the $ 975,000 (the “Projected Revenue”) and the cash basis revenue
(the “Measurement Period Revenue”) collected by Elite in its normal course of business from the clients existing on June
30, 2021, during the period from October 1, 2021 through September 30, 2022 (the “Measurement Period”) measured an a quarterly
basis and annualized as of the relevant period. If the Measurement Period Revenue is less than the Projected Revenue, such amount will
be subtracted from the principal balance of this Note on a dollar-for-dollar basis. If the Measurement Period Revenue is more than the
Projected Revenue, such amount will be added to the principal balance of this Note on a dollar-for-dollar basis. In no event will the
principal balance of this Note become a negative number. The maximum downward earn-out adjustment to the principal balance will be to
zero. There are no limits to the increases to the principal balance of the Note as a result of the earn-out adjustments.
The contingent consideration
promissory note is considered to be additional purchase price, therefore the estimated fair value of the contingent liability is recorded
as a liability at the acquisition date and the fair value is considered part of the consideration paid for the acquisition. Management
has recorded the contingent consideration promissory note at its estimated fair value of $ 350,000 at the acquisition date. Management
will continue to estimate the fair value of this Note at each reporting date with the change, if any recorded as a gain or loss in the
statement of operations during the relevant period.

accordance with ASC Topic 820 — Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), the Company utilizes the
market approach to measure fair value for its financial assets and liabilities. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information
generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets, liabilities or a group of assets or liabilities, such as a
business.
ASC
820 utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels.
The following is a brief description of those three levels:
●
Level
1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities
13
●
Level
2 — Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities)
●
Level
3 — Significant unobservable inputs (including the Company’s own assumptions in determining the fair value)
The
following table represents the Company’s hierarchy for its financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring
basis as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

NOTE
6. INCOME TAXES
The
effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 varied from the expected statutory rate due to the Company continuing
to provide a 100 % valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets. The Company determined that it was appropriate to continue the full
valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2021 primarily because of the Company’s history of operating losses.
The
Company has incurred operating losses in recent years, and it continues to be in a three-year cumulative loss position at June 30, 2021.
Accordingly, the Company determined there was not sufficient positive evidence regarding its potential for future profits to outweigh
the negative evidence of our three-year cumulative loss position under the guidance provided in ASC 740. Therefore, it determined to
continue to provide a 100 % valuation allowance on its net deferred tax assets. The Company expects to continue to maintain a full valuation
allowance until it determines that it can sustain a level of profitability that demonstrates its ability to realize these assets. To
the extent the Company determines that the realization of some or all of these benefits is more likely than not based upon expected future
taxable income, a portion or all of the valuation allowance will be reversed. The Company has available to it approximately $ 76 million
in net operating loss carryforwards to offset future taxable income as of June 30, 2021.

On
April 30, 2021 the Company closed on the purchase and sale agreement to acquire a 71,361 square feet commercial office building located
in Lenexa, Kansas which is intended to serve as the Company’s future office and warehouse needs. The building contains approximately
30,000 square feet of office space and the remainder warehouse space. The total purchase price was approximately $ 5.3 million, the Company
funded the purchase price with cash on hand, without the addition of external debt or other financing.
Depreciation
expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020 was $ 95,346 and $ 43,183 , respectively, and is included in general
and administrative expenses.
NOTE
8. OPERATING LEASE
On
May 13, 2020, the Company entered into an operating lease for new warehouse and office space which will serve as its new principal executive
office and primary business location. The original lease agreement was amended on August 28, 2020 to correct the footage under lease
and monthly payment amounts resulting from such correction. The lease terms, as amended include no base rent for the first nine months
and monthly payments ranging from $ 12,398 to $ 14,741 thereafter, with a termination date of December 2026 . The Company is responsible
for property taxes, utilities, insurance and its proportionate share of common area costs related to its new location. The Company took
possession of the leased facilities on June 15, 2020. The remaining lease term for the Company’s office and warehouse operating
lease as of June 30, 2021 was sixty-six months. The Company’s previous office and warehouse space lease expired in April 2020 and
the Company paid holdover rent for the time period until it moved to and commenced occupying the new space on June 15, 2020.
The
Company entered into an operating lease with a third party in October 2019 for copiers used for office and warehouse purposes. The terms
of the lease include 48 monthly payments of $ 1,598 with a maturity date of October 2023 . The Company has the option to purchase the equipment
at maturity for its estimated fair market value at that point in time. The remaining lease term for the Company’s copier operating
lease as of June 30, 2021 was 28 months.
15
Lease
expense related to the office space and copier operating leases were recorded on a straight-line basis over their respective lease terms.
Total lease expense under the two operating leases was $ 65,953
for the six months ended June 30,
2021.
The
discount rate implicit within the Company’s operating leases was not generally determinable and therefore the Company determined
the discount rate based on its incremental borrowing rate on the information available at commencement date. As of commencement date,
the operating lease liabilities reflect a weighted average discount rate of 8 %.

9. CONTINGENCIES
COVID-19
pandemic
The
COVID-19 pandemic represents a fluid situation that presents a wide range of potential impacts of varying durations for different global
geographies, including locations where the Company has offices, employees, customers, vendors and other suppliers and business
partners.
Like
most US-based businesses, the COVID-19 pandemic and efforts to mitigate the same began to have impacts on our business in March 2020.
By that time, much of the Company’s first fiscal quarter was completed. During 2020 and the first quarter of 2021,
the Company observed recent decreases in demand from certain customers, including primarily law-enforcement and commercial customers.
However, we are beginning to experience an increase in demand for the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to the same period in
2020.
Given the fact that the Company’s
products are sold through a variety of distribution channels, the Company expects sales will experience more volatility as
a result of the changing and less predictable operational needs of many customers as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company
is aware that many companies, including many current suppliers and customers, are reporting or predicting negative impacts
from COVID-19 on future operating results. Although the Company observed a slight increase in demand for products from
certain customers during the quarter ended June 30, 2021, the Company believes that the impact of the COVID-19 remains
too fluid and unknown, hindering the Company from determining the long-term demand for current products. The Company
also cannot be certain how demand may shift over time as the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic may go through several phases of varying
severity and duration.
16
In light
of broader macro-economic risks and already known impacts on certain industries that use the Company’s products and services,
the Company has taken, and continues to take targeted steps to lower its operating expenses because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Company continues to monitor the impacts of COVID-19 on its operations closely and this situation could change based
on a significant number of factors that are not entirely within its control and are discussed in this and other sections of this
quarterly report on Form 10-Q. The Company does not expect there to be material changes to its assets on our balance sheet
or its ability to timely account for those assets. Further, in connection with the preparation of this quarterly report on Form
10-Q and the financial statements contained herein, the Company reviewed the potential impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on goodwill
and intangible assets and have determined there to be no material impact at this time. The Company has also reviewed the potential
impacts on future risks to the business as it relates to collections, returns and other business-related items.
To date,
travel restrictions and border closures have not materially impacted its ability to obtain inventory or manufacture or deliver
products or services to customers. However, if such restrictions become more severe, they could negatively impact those activities in
a way that would harm the business over the long term. Travel restrictions impacting people can restrain its ability to
assist its customers and distributors as well as impact its ability to develop new distribution channels, but at present
the Company does not expect these restrictions on personal travel to be material to our business operations or financial results.
The Company has taken steps to restrain and monitor its operating expenses and therefore it does not expect any
such impacts to materially change the relationship between costs and revenues.
Like
most companies, the Company has taken a range of actions with respect to how it operates to assure it comply with
government restrictions and guidelines as well as best practices to protect the health and well-being of its employees and its
ability to continue operating its business effectively. To date, the Company has been able to operate its business
effectively using these measures and to maintain all internal controls as documented and posted. The Company also has not
experienced challenges in maintaining business continuity and does not expect to incur material expenditures to do so. However,
the impacts of COVID-19 and efforts to mitigate the same have remained unpredictable and it remains possible that challenges may arise
in the future.
The
actions the Company has taken so far during the COVID-19 pandemic include, but are not limited to:
●
Requiring
all employees who can work from home to work from home;
●
Increasing
its IT networking capability to best assure employees can work effectively outside the office; and
●
For
employees who must perform essential functions in one of its offices:
●
Having
employees maintain a distance of at least six feet from other employees whenever possible;
●
Having
employees work in dedicated shifts to lower the risk all employees who perform similar tasks might become infected by COVID-19;
●
Having
employees stay segregated from other employees in the office with whom they require no interaction; and
●
Requiring
employees to wear masks while they are in the office whenever possible.
The Company currently
believes revenue for the year ending December 31, 2021 will still be impacted due to the conditions noted. In April 2020,
the Company implemented a COVID-19 mitigation plan designed to further reduce its operating expenses during the pandemic.
Actions taken to date include work hour and salary reductions for senior management. These cost reductions are in addition to the significant
restructuring actions which the Company continues to implement and develop throughout. Based on the Company’s
current cash position, its projected cash flow from operations and its cost reduction and cost containment efforts
to date, the Company believes that it will have sufficient capital and or have access to sufficient capital through public
and private equity and debt offerings to sustain operations for a period of one year following the date of this filing. If business interruptions
resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic were to be prolonged or expanded in scope, the business, financial condition, results of
operations and cash flows would be negatively impacted. The Company will continue to actively monitor this situation and will
implement actions necessary to maintain business continuity.
17
Litigation.
From time to time, the Company
is notified that it may be a party to a lawsuit or that a claim is being made against it. It is the Company’s
policy to not disclose the specifics of any claim or threatened lawsuit until the summons and complaint are actually served. After
carefully assessing the claim, and assuming the Company determines that it is not at fault or it disagrees with
the damages or relief demanded, it vigorously defends any lawsuit filed against it. The Company records a liability
when losses are deemed probable and reasonably estimable. When losses are deemed reasonably possible but not probable, the Company
determines whether it is possible to provide an estimate of the amount of the loss or range of possible losses for the claim, if
material for disclosure. In evaluating matters for accrual and disclosure purposes, the Company takes into consideration factors
such as our historical experience with matters of a similar nature, the specific facts and circumstances asserted, the likelihood of
it prevailing, the availability of insurance, and the severity of any potential loss. The Company reevaluates and updates
accruals as matters progress over time.
While
the ultimate resolution is unknown, based on the information currently available, the Company does not expect that these lawsuits
will individually, or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect to its results of operations, financial condition or cash
flows. However, the outcome of any litigation is inherently uncertain and there can be no assurance that any expense, liability or damages
that may ultimately result from the resolution of these matters will be covered by its insurance or will not be in excess of amounts
recognized or provided by insurance coverage and will not have a material adverse effect on its operating results, financial condition
or cash flows.
Axon
The
Company owns U.S. Patent No. 9,253,452 (the “ ‘452 Patent”), which generally covers the automatic activation and coordination
of multiple recording devices in response to a triggering event, such as a law enforcement officer activating the light bar on the vehicle.
The
Company filed suit on January 15, 2016 in the U.S. District Court for the District of Kansas (the “U.S. District Court”)
(Case No: 2:16-cv-02032) against Axon Enterprise, Inc. (“Axon”), alleging willful patent infringement against Axon’s
body camera product line and Signal auto-activation product. The Company is seeking both monetary damages and a permanent injunction
against Axon for infringement of the ‘452 Patent.
In
December 2016 and January 2017, Axon filed two petitions for Inter Partes Review (“IPR”) against the ‘452 Patent.
The United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) rejected both of Axon’s petitions. Axon is now statutorily
precluded from filing any more IPR petitions against the ‘452 Patent.
The
District Court litigation was temporarily stayed following the filing of the petitions for IPR. However, on November 17, 2017, the U.S.
District Court of Kansas rejected Axon’s request to maintain the stay. With this ruling, the parties then proceeded towards trial,
after which the parties filed motions for summary judgement on January 31, 2019.
On
June 17, 2019, the U.S. District Court granted Axon’s motion for summary judgment that Axon did not infringe on the Company’s
patent and dismissed the case. The U.S. District Court’s ruling did not find that the ‘452 Patent was invalid. It also did
not address any other issue, such as whether Digital’s requested damages were appropriate, and it did not impact the Company’s
ability to file additional lawsuits to hold other competitors accountable for patent infringement. This ruling solely related to an interpretation
of the Company’s claims as they relate to Axon and was unrelated to the supplemental briefing the Company filed on its damages
claim. Those issues are separate and the U.S. District Court’s ruling on the motion for summary judgment had nothing to do with
the Company’s damages request.
18
The
Company filed an opening appeal brief on August 26, 2019 with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit (the “Court of Appeals”),
appealing the U.S. District Court’s granting of Axon’s motion for summary judgment. Axon responded by filing a responsive
brief on November 6, 2019 and we then filed a reply brief responding to Axon on November 27, 2019. The Court of Appeals scheduled oral
arguments on our appeal of the U.S. District Court’s summary judgment ruling on April 6, 2020. This appeal was intended to address
the Company’s position that the U.S. District Court incorrectly dismissed our claims against Axon. If the Court of Appeals overturns
the ruling of the U.S. District Court, the case would have been remanded to the U.S District Court before a new judge. On March 12, 2020,
the panel of judges for the Court of Appeals issued an order cancelling the oral arguments previously set for April 6, 2020, having determined
that the appeal will be decided solely based on the parties’ briefs. On April 22, 2020, a three-judge panel of the United States
Court of Appeals denied our appeal and affirmed the District Court’s previous decision to grant Axon summary judgment. On May 22,
2020, we filed a petition for panel rehearing requesting that we be granted a rehearing of our appeal of the U.S. District Court’s
summary judgment ruling. Furthermore, we requested that we be given an opportunity to make our case through oral argument in front of
the three-judge panel of the Court of Appeals, which was also denied. The Company has abandoned its right to any further appeals.
NOTE
10. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The
Company recorded pretax compensation expense related to the grant of stock options and restricted stock issued of $ 330,213 and $ 376,738
for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, and $ 656,378 and $ 688,415 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
As
of June 30, 2021, the Company had adopted nine separate stock option and restricted stock plans: (i) the 2005 Stock Option and Restricted
Stock Plan (the “2005 Plan”), (ii) the 2006 Stock Option and Restricted Stock Plan (the “2006 Plan”), (iii) the
2007 Stock Option and Restricted Stock Plan (the “2007 Plan”), (iv) the 2008 Stock Option and Restricted Stock Plan (the
“2008 Plan”), (v) the 2011 Stock Option and Restricted Stock Plan (the “2011 Plan”), (vi) the 2013 Stock Option
and Restricted Stock Plan (the “2013 Plan”), (vii) the 2015 Stock Option and Restricted Stock Plan (the “2015 Plan”),
(viii) the 2018 Stock Option and Restricted Stock Plan (the “2018 Plan”) and (ix) the 2020 Stock Option and Restricted Stock
Plan (the “2020 Plan”).. The 2005 Plan, 2006 Plan, 2007 Plan, 2008 Plan, 2011 Plan, 2013 Plan, 2015 Plan, 2018 Plan and 2020
Plan are referred to as the “Plans.”
These
Plans permit the grant of stock options or restricted stock to its employees, non-employee directors and others for up to a total of
5,675,000
shares of common stock. The 2005 Plan terminated
during 2015 with 20,178
shares not awarded or underlying options, which
shares are now unavailable for issuance. Stock options granted under the 2005 Plan that remain unexercised and outstanding as of June
30, 2021 total 7,064 .
The 2006 Plan terminated during 2016 with 35,474
shares not awarded or underlying options, which
shares are now unavailable for issuance. Stock options granted under the 2006 Plan that remain unexercised and outstanding as of June
30, 2021 total 30,125 .
The 2007 Plan terminated during 2017 with 94,651
shares not awarded or underlying options, which
shares are now unavailable for issuance. The 2008 Plan terminated during 2018 with 40,499
shares not awarded or underlying options, which
shares are now unavailable for issuance. There were no
stock options granted under the 2008 Plan that
remain unexercised and outstanding as of June 30, 2021.
The
Company believes that such awards better align the interests of our employees with those of its stockholders. Option awards have been
granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of its stock at the date of grant with such option awards generally vesting
based on the completion of continuous service and having ten-year contractual terms. These option awards typically provide for accelerated
vesting if there is a change in control (as defined in the Plans). The Company has registered all shares of common stock that are issuable
under its Plans with the SEC. A total of 791,939 shares remained available for awards under the various Plans as of June 30, 2021.
The
fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option valuation model.

The
Plans allow for the cashless exercise of stock options. This provision allows the option holder to surrender/cancel options with an intrinsic
value equivalent to the purchase/exercise price of other options exercised. There were no shares surrendered pursuant to cashless exercises
during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.
The
aggregate intrinsic value of options outstanding was $- 0 -, and the aggregate intrinsic value of options exercisable was $- 0 - at June

Restricted
stock grants. The Board of Directors has granted restricted stock awards under the Plans. Restricted stock awards are valued
on the date of grant and have no purchase price for the recipient. Restricted stock awards typically vest over one to four years corresponding
to anniversaries of the grant date. Under the Plans, unvested shares of restricted stock awards may be forfeited upon the termination
of service to or employment with the Company, depending upon the circumstances of termination. Except for restrictions placed on the
transferability of restricted stock, holders of unvested restricted stock have full stockholder’s rights, including voting rights
and the right to receive cash dividends.

The
Company has issued common stock purchase warrants in conjunction with various debt and equity issuances. The warrants are either immediately
exercisable, or have a delayed initial exercise date, no more than six months from their respective issue date and allow the holders
to purchase up to 26,808,598 shares of common stock at $ 2.60 to $ 5.00 per share as of June 30, 2021. The warrants expire from December
30, 2021 through February 1, 2026 and under certain circumstances allow for cashless exercise.
On
January 14, 2021 and February 1, 2021, the Company issued warrants to purchase a total of 42,550,000 shares of Common Stock. The warrant
terms provide for net cash settlement outside the control of the Company under certain circumstances in the event of tender offers. As
such, the Company is required to treat these warrants as derivative liabilities which are valued at their estimated fair value at their
issuance date and at each reporting date with any subsequent changes reported in the consolidated statements of operations as the change
in fair value of warrant derivative liabilities. Furthermore, the Company revalues the fair value of warrant derivative liability as
of the date the warrant is exercised with the resulting warrant derivative liability transitioned to equity.
The
Company has utilized the following assumptions in its Black-Scholes option valuation model to calculate the estimated fair value of the
warrant derivative liabilities as of their date of issuance and as of June 30, 2021:

$ 1,817,549 at their date of issuance and recorded as a derivative warrant liability. On the date of exercise such pre-funded warrants
were fair valued at zero , which was transitioned to permanent equity during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The Company reported
the $ 1,817,549 change in fair value from their issuance date to their exercise date in the condensed statements of operations as the
change in fair value of warrant derivative liabilities.

that could materially affect the timing or amounts recognized in our financial statements. Our assumptions and estimates are based upon
comparable market data and information obtained from the management of Nobility. The results of operations of acquired businesses are
included in the consolidated financial statements from the acquisition date.

for our products in the domestic and international markets in which we compete, including increasing our international revenues; (9) our
ability to produce our products in a cost-effective manner; (10) competition from larger, more established companies with far greater
economic and human resources; (11) our ability to attract and retain quality employees; (12) risks related to dealing with governmental
entities as customers; (13) our expenditure of significant resources in anticipation of sales due to our lengthy sales cycle and the potential
to receive no revenue in return; (14) characterization of our market by new products and rapid technological change; (15) our dependence
on sales of our EVO-HD, DVM-800, FirstVU HD and DVM-250 products; (16) that stockholders may lose all or part of their investment if we
are unable to compete in our markets and return to profitability; (17) defects in our products that could impair our ability to sell our

Current Trends and Recent Developments for the
Company
Overview
We supply technology-based
products utilizing our portable digital video and audio recording capabilities for the law enforcement and security industries and for
the commercial fleet and mass transit markets. We have the ability to integrate electronic, radio, computer, mechanical, and multi-media
technologies to create positive solutions to our customers’ requests. Our products include: the DVM-800 and DVM-800 Lite, which
are in-car digital video mirror systems for law enforcement; the FirstVU and the FirstVU HD, which are body-worn cameras; our patented
and revolutionary VuLink product, which integrates our body-worn cameras with our in-car systems by providing hands-free automatic activation
for both law enforcement and commercial markets; the DVM-250 and DVM-250 Plus, which are our commercial line of digital video mirrors
that serve as “event recorders” for the commercial fleet and mass transit markets; and FleetVU and VuLink, which are our
cloud-based evidence management systems. We introduced the EVO-HD product in the second quarter of 2019 and began full-scale deliveries
in the third quarter 2019, which continued through 2020 and into 2021. The EVO-HD is designed and built on a new and highly advanced
technology platform that will become the platform for a new family of in-car video solution products for the law enforcement and commercial
markets. We believe that the launch of these new products will help to reinvigorate our in-car and body-worn systems revenues while diversifying
and broadening the market for our product offerings. Additionally, we introduced two new lines of branded products: (1) the ThermoVu™
which is a line of self-contained temperature monitoring stations that provides alerts and controls facility access when an individual’s
temperature exceeds a pre-set threshold and (2) our Shield™ disinfectants and cleansers which are for use against viruses and bacteria.
We began offering our Shield™ disinfectants and cleansers to our law enforcement and commercial customers late in the second quarter
of 2020. We have entered the revenue cycle management (“RCM”) business in the second quarter of 2021 with the formation
of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Digital Ally Healthcare, Inc. and its majority-owned subsidiary Nobility Healthcare,
LLC. Nobility Healthcare, LLC completed its first acquisition on June 30, 2021 when it acquired Elite. The Elite acquisition had little
effect on the second quarter 2021 operating results but is expected to make positive contributions to the Company’s operating results
in future quarters.
We experienced operating losses
for the first and second quarters of 2021 and all quarters during 2020. The following is a summary of our recent operating results on

Our business is subject to substantial
fluctuations on a quarterly basis as reflected in the significant variations in revenues and operating results in the above table. These
variations result from various factors, including but not limited to: (1) the timing of large individual orders; (2) the traction gained
by products, such as the recently released EVO HD, the ThermoVU™ and the Shield™ line; (3) production, quality and other
supply chain issues affecting our cost of goods sold; (4) unusual increases in operating expenses, such as the timing of trade shows
and stock-based and bonus compensation; (5) the timing of patent infringement litigation settlements; (5) ongoing patent and other litigation
and related expenses respecting outstanding lawsuits; and (6) most recently, the impact of COVID-19 on the economy and our business.
We reported a net loss of $5,382,487 on revenues of $2,493,671 for the second quarter of 2021. The income recognized in
the first quarter 2021, and in the third quarter 2020 ended a series of quarterly losses resulting from competitive pressures, supply
chain problems, increases in inventory reserves as our current product suite ages, product quality control issues, product warranty issues,
and litigation expenses relating to patent infringement claims.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance
sheet debt, nor did we have any transactions, arrangements, obligations (including contingent obligations) or other relationships with
any unconsolidated entities or other persons that may have a material current or future effect on financial conditions, changes in the
financial conditions, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, capital resources, or significant components of revenue
or expenses other than the following:
We are a party to operating leases
and license agreements that represent commitments for future payments (described in Note 8, “Operating Leases,” to
our condensed consolidated financial statements) and we have issued purchase orders in the ordinary course of business that represent
commitments to future payments for goods and services.

Revenues
We sell our products and services
to law enforcement and commercial customers in the following manner:
●
Sales to domestic customers are made directly to the end customer (typically a law enforcement agency or a commercial customer) through our sales force, comprised of our employees. Revenue is recorded when the product is shipped to the end customer.
●
Sales to international customers are made through independent distributors who purchase products from us at a wholesale price and sell to the end user (typically law enforcement agencies or a commercial customer) at a retail price. The distributor retains the margin as its compensation for its role in the transaction. The distributor generally maintains product inventory, customer receivables and all related risks and rewards of ownership. Revenue is recorded when the product is shipped to the distributor consistent with the terms of the distribution agreement.
●
Repair parts and services for domestic and international customers are generally handled by our inside customer service employees. Revenue is recognized upon shipment of the repair parts and acceptance of the service or materials by the end customer.
29
We may discount our prices on
specific orders based upon the size of the order, the specific customer and the competitive landscape.
The
COVID-19 pandemic had an impact on our revenues in the second quarter 2021 and we expect it to adversely affect our revenues during the
remainder of 2021. The COVID-19 pandemic had a negative impact generally on our legacy products and, in particular our commercial event
recorder hardware (DVM-250 Plus) and in-car hardware for law enforcement (DVM-800) during the quarter. The COVID-19 pandemic had a positive
impact generally on our new Shield disinfectant/sanitizer and ThermoVU product lines.
Revenues for the second quarter of 2021 and 2020 were

Product revenues for the three
months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were $1,719,332 and $1,053,581 respectively, an increase of $665,751 (63%), due to
the following factors:
●
The Company generated revenues totaling over
$64,598 during the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $-0- for the same period in 2020 from its new product lines.
Late in the second quarter of 2020, the Company launched two product lines in direct response to the increased safety precautions
that organizations and individuals are taking due to the COVID-19 pandemic. ThermoVu™ was launched as a non-contact temperature-screening
instrument that measures temperature through the wrist and controls entry to facilities when temperature measurements exceed pre-determined
parameters. ThermoVu™ has optional features such as facial recognition to improve facility security by restricting access based
on temperature and/or facial recognition reasons. ThermoVu™ provides an instant pass/fail audible tone with its temperature
display and controls access to facilities based on such results. We believe that it can be widely applied in schools, office buildings,
subway stations, airports and other public venues. The Company also launched its Shield™ disinfectant/sanitizer product lines
to fulfill demand by current customers and others for a disinfectant and sanitizer that is less harsh than many of the traditional
products now widely distributed. The Shield™ Cleanser product line contains a cleanser with no harsh chemicals or fumes.
The Company began offering the Shield™ line
of disinfecting products to its first responder customers including police, fire and paramedics late in the second quarter of 2020. Commercial
customers such as cruise lines, taxi-cab and para transit may also be good candidates for the products. The Company is considering enhancing
the line of disinfectant products for additional related products including hardware to efficiently and effectively dispense the disinfectants.
The Company is hopeful that its law enforcement and commercial customers will adopt this new product offering to combat the spread of
the COVID-19 virus as well as other bacteria and viruses.
30
●
In
general, we have experienced pressure on our revenues as our in-car and body-worn systems are facing increased competition because
our competitors have released new products with advanced features. Additionally, our law enforcement revenues declined over the prior
period due to price-cutting and competitive actions by our competitors, adverse marketplace effects related to our patent litigation
proceedings and our recent financial condition. We introduced our EVO-HD late in the second quarter of 2019 with the goal of enhancing
our product line features to meet these competitive challenges and we started to see traction in late 2019 but sales in 2020 were
hampered due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We expect customers and potential customers to review and test the EVO-HD prior to committing
to this new product platform, all of which has been delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We experienced substantial increases
in EVO-HD revenues during the second quarter of 2021 and believe that customers are recognizing and are attracted to its advanced
features.
●
The COVID-19 pandemic has continued to delay
the shipment of law enforcement orders since the first quarter of 2020 as police forces and governments deal with its impact. In
addition, our salesmen were generally unable to meet with and demonstrate our products to our law enforcement customers because of
travel and other restrictions imposed by cities and states due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In person demonstration of our products
to potential customers is generally important in order to obtain new customers or upgrade existing customers. Our product sales to
law enforcement increased in the second quarter of 2021 compared to the same period in 2020, as the impact of the COVID-19
pandemic was at its peak.
The COVID-19 pandemic impact has begun to
lessen, although the shipment of commercial orders in the second quarter of 2021 remain slow, as cruise lines,
taxi cabs, paratransit and other commercial customers continue to deal with its impact. In addition, our salesmen were generally
unable to meet with and demonstrate our products to our commercial customers because of travel and other restrictions imposed by
cities and states due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In person demonstration of our products to potential customers is generally required
in order to obtain new customers or upgrade existing customers. Our product sales to commercial customers increased in the second
quarter of 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 despite the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
●
Management has been focusing on migrating customers, from a “hardware sale” to a service fee model. Therefore, we expect a reduction in hardware sales as we convert these customers to a service model under which we provide the hardware as part of a recurring monthly service fee. In that respect, we introduced a monthly subscription agreement plan for our body worn cameras and related equipment during the second quarter of 2020 that allowed law enforcement agencies to pay a monthly service fee to obtain body worn cameras without incurring a significant upfront capital outlay. This program continues to hold traction, resulting in recurring revenues over a span of three to five years.
Service and other revenues for
the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were $774,339 and $678,611, respectively, an increase of $95,728 (14%), due
to the following factors:
●
Cloud
revenues were $247,085 and $281,008 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, a decrease
of $33,923 (12%). We have experienced increased interest in our cloud solutions for law enforcement primarily due to the deployment
of our new cloud-based EVO-HD in-car system; however, the fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic and related business shut-downs affected
our commercial customers usage of cloud services and lessened cloud revenues.
●
Revenues
from extended warranty services were $232,614 and $334,705 for the three months
ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, a decrease of $102,091 (31%). We
have many customers that have purchased extended warranty packages, primarily in our DVM-800
premium service program. However, the affects from the COVID-19 pandemic and related restrictions
on travel adversely affected our sales of DVM-800 hardware systems resulting in a decrease
in their sales over the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same
period in 2020.
31
●
Installation
service revenues were $30,029 and $49,776 for the three months ended June
30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, a decrease of $19,747 (40%). Installation revenues
tend to vary more than other service revenue types and are dependent on larger customer implementations.
The decrease in installation revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2021
compared to the same period 2020 was attributable to the continued effects related
to the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, our newer products require less installation services,
as the products are further along in the set-up process prior to leaving the warehouse.
●
Revenues
from building rental income were $146,185 and $-0- for the three months ended June 30, 2021
and 2020, respectively, an increase of $146,185 (100%). The Company completed the purchase
of an office/warehouse building during the three months ended June 30, 2021, in which current tenants were
under a lease agreement. The agreement concludes at the end of August 2021.
Total revenues for the three
months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were $2,493,671 and $1,732,192, respectively, an increase of $761,479 (44%),
due to the reasons noted above.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of product revenue on
units sold for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was $1,017,659 and $1,165,528, respectively, a decrease
of $147,869 (13%). The decrease in cost of goods sold for products is due to numerous factors in the period
during 2020 that were not relevant to the same period in 2021. In the 2020 period, the Company experienced a
move to its new warehouse facility, and a significant manufacturing slow down caused by the COVID-19 pandemic causing
unfavorable overhead and labor variances for production in the second quarter of 2020, which management had decided to
expense as a period cost. For the same period in 2021, the Company did not experience these factors, but further reduced
the inventory reserve. Additionally, RMA returns as a percentage of product revenues was 10% for the three months ended
June 30, 2021 compared to 32% for the three months ended June 30, 2020.
Cost of service and other revenues
for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was $215,212 and $173,906, respectively, an increase of $41,306
(24%). The increase in service and other cost of goods sold is primarily due to the 14% decrease in service and other
revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2021.
Total cost of sales as a percentage
of revenues was 51% for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to 77% for the three months ended June 30, 2020. We believe
our gross margins will improve during the remainder of 2021 if we can increase revenues (in particular service and other revenues),
shipping costs moderate and continue to reduce product warranty issues.
We had $2,321,788 and
$1,960,351 in reserves for obsolete and excess inventories at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Total raw materials
and component parts were $3,184,707 and $3,186,426 at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, a decrease of $1,719
(1%). Finished goods balances were $8,737,310 and $6,974,291 at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively,
an increase of $1,943,019 (29%). The increase in the inventory reserve is primarily due to the aging of older version inventory
component parts that were mostly or fully reserved during the three months ended June 30, 2021. The remaining reserve for inventory obsolescence
is generally provided for the level of component parts of the older versions of our PCB boards and the phase out of our DVM-750, DVM-500
Plus and LaserAlly legacy products. We believe the reserves are appropriate given our inventory levels at June 30, 2021.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the three months
ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was $1,260,800 and $392,758, respectively, an increase of $868,042 (221%). The increase
is commensurate with the increase in product and service revenues during the three months ended June 30, 2021
compared to the same period in 2020. Our goal is to improve our margins to 60% over the longer-term based on the expected margins of
our EVO-HD, DVM-800, VuLink and FirstVU HD and our cloud evidence storage and management offering if they gain traction in the marketplace
and subject to a normalizing economy in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, if revenues from these products increase, we
will seek to further improve our margins from them through economies of scale and more efficiently utilizing fixed manufacturing overhead
components. We plan to continue our initiative to more efficient management of our supply chain through outsourcing production, quantity
purchases and more effective purchasing practices.
32
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative
expenses were $3,877,684 and $2,535,912 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, an increase of $1,341,772
(53%). The increase was fueled by an increase in travel expenses as COVID-19 restrictions begin to ease, increased promotional
and advertising expenses, along with increased legal and broker fees for the quarter ended June 30, 2021. The significant
components of selling, general and administrative expenses are as follows:

Research and development
expense. We continue to focus on bringing new products to market, including updates and improvements to current products. Our
research and development expenses totaled $460,999 and $359,697 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively,
an increase of $101,302 (28%). Most of our engineers are dedicated to research and development activities for new products,
primarily the ThermoVu TM , Shield TM , EVO-HD and non-mirror based DVM-250 that can be located in multiple places
in a vehicle. We expect our research and development activities will continue to trend higher in future quarters as we continue to expand
our product offerings based on our new EVO-HD product platform and as we outsource more development projects. We consider our research
and development capabilities and new product focus to be a competitive advantage and intend to continue to invest in this area on a prudent
basis and consistent with our financial resources.
Selling, advertising and
promotional expenses. Selling, advertising and promotional expense totaled $870,183 and $486,649 for the three months
ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, an increase of $383,534 (79%). Salesman salaries and commissions represent
the primary components of these costs and were $496,215 and $374,882 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively,
an increase of $383,616 (79%). The effective commission rate was 19.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2021,
compared to 21.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2020. This increase directly correlates with the increase in total
sales for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020.
Promotional and advertising expenses
totaled $373,968 during the three months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $111,767 during the three months ended June 30, 2020,
an increase of $262,201 (235%). The increase is primarily attributable to NASCAR and IndyCar seasons resuming in the 2021, as
they were conversely suspended during the same period in 2020. Additionally, trade shows are beginning to take place in the second
quarter of 2021, compared to the second quarter of 2020, when they were suspended as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Professional fees and expense .
Professional fees and expenses totaled $620,346 and $217,726 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively,
an increase of $402,620 (185%). The increase in professional fees is primarily attributable to increased legal
and broker fees associated with the Company’s acquisition of Elite Medical Billing Specialists, paired with other current due diligence
items and opportunities the Company is exploring. Additionally, increased board fees, audit fees, and service fees attribute
to this increase.
33
Executive, sales and administrative
staff payroll. Executive, sales and administrative staff payroll expenses totaled $674,008 and $510,872 for the three
months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, an increase of $163,136 (31%). The primary reason for the increase
in executive, sales and administrative staff payroll was the return to regular staff levels compared to the same period
in 2020, during which period the Company experienced a reduction in technical support staffing in response to the COVID-19 pandemic during the
second quarter of 2020, as the COVID-19 pandemic had significantly impacted the Company’s new event security business channel in
2020 as many sporting venues were closed including those served by these service technicians.
Other . Other selling,
general and administrative expenses totaled $1,252,148 and $960,968 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020,
respectively, an increase of $291,180 (30%). The increase in other expenses in the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared
to the same period in 2020 is primarily attributable to an increase in travel costs as COVID-19 restrictions begin to ease, as well as
substantially increased insurance costs compared to the same period in 2020. The increased insurance costs are primarily in general liability
and related coverages which premiums have been increased to address exposure to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Operating Loss
For the reasons stated above,
our operating loss was $2,616,884 and $2,143,154 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, a decrease
of $473,730 (22%). Operating loss as a percentage of revenues bettered to 105% in the three months ended June
30, 2021 from 124% in the same period in 2020.
Interest Income
Interest income increased to
$90,774 for the three months ended June 30, 2021, from $15,609 in the same period of 2020, which reflected our increase in cash
and cash equivalent levels in the second quarter of 2021 compared to the second quarter of 2020. The Company completed two registered
direct offerings in the first quarter of 2021 which yielded net proceeds of approximately $66.4 million which balances have earned increased
interest income when compared to the first quarter of 2020 Additionally, this increase is a result of interest incurred on debt that
the Company has issued, as well as interest incurred on leased products.
Interest Expense
We incurred interest expense
of $1,365 and $25,636 during the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The decrease was attributable to utilizing
a portion of the net proceeds from the registered direct offerings to eliminate substantially all interest-bearing debt balances outstanding
in the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020. On May 12, 2020, the Company received $150,000 in additional
loan funding under the Economic Injury Disaster Loans (“EIDL”) program administered by the Small Business Administration
(“SBA”). Under the terms of the EIDL promissory note, interest accrues on the outstanding principal at the rate of 3.75%
per annum. The term of the EIDL promissory note is thirty years and monthly principal and interest payments are deferred for twelve months
after the date of disbursement and total $731.00 per month thereafter. The EIDL loan represent the Company’s only interest-bearing
debt outstanding as of June 30, 2021.
Secured Convertible Notes Issuance Expenses
We recognized secured convertible
notes issuance expense totaling $-0- and $34,906 during the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
We elected to account for
and record our $1.667 million principal amount of the 2020 Convertible Notes issued in April 2020 on a fair value basis. Accordingly,
we were required to expense the related issuance costs to other expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Such
costs totaled $34,906 for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The issuance costs primarily included related legal and accounting fees.
No similar debt issuances occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2021.
Gain on Extinguishment of debt
We recognized a gain on extinguishment
of debt totaling $10,000 and $-0- during the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. During the three months ended June
30, 2021 the Company was notified that its $10,000 EIDL advance received with the PPP Loan was fully forgiven,
Change in Fair Value of Secured Convertible
Notes
We recognized a loss on change
in fair value of Secured Convertible Notes totaling $-0- and $887,807 during the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
We elected to account for
the secured convertible notes that were issued on April 17, 2020 on their fair value basis. Therefore, we determined the fair value of
the secured convertible notes as of their issuance date of April 17, 2020 and through June 12, 2020, when they were paid in full. The
change in fair value from their issuance date of April 17, 2020 to their pay-off date was $887,807, which was recognized as a charge
in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three months ended June 30, 2020.
Change in Fair Value of Proceeds Investment
Agreement
We recognized a gain on change
in fair value of proceeds investment agreement totaling $-0- and $2,578,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
We elected to account for
the PIA that we entered into with BKI in July of 2018 on its fair value basis. Therefore, we determined the fair value of the 2018 PIA
as of June 30, 2020, and March 31, 2020 to be $3,615,000 and $6,193,000, respectively. The change in fair value from March 31, 2020 to
June 30, 2020 was $2,578,000, which was recognized as a gain in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three months
ended June 30, 2020.
Change in Fair Value of Short-Term Investments
We recognized a loss on change
in fair value of short-term investments totaling $1,590 and $-0- during the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
Such short-term investments are included in cash and cash equivalents as they contain original maturities of ninety (90) days or less.
Change in Fair Value of Derivative Liabilities
During the first quarter of 2021,
the Company issued detachable warrants to purchase a total of 42,500,000 shares of Common Stock in association with the two registered
direct offerings previously described. The underlying warrant agreement terms provide for net cash settlement outside the control of
the Company in the event of tender offers under certain circumstances. As such, the Company is required to treat these warrants as derivative
liabilities which are valued at their estimated fair value at their issuance date and at each reporting date with any subsequent changes
reported in the condensed consolidated statement of operations as the change in fair value of warrant derivative liabilities. The change
in fair value of the warrant derivative liabilities from March 31, 2021 to June 30, 2021 totaled $2,863,422 which was recognized
as a loss in the second quarter of 2021. The Company determined the fair value of such warrants as of their issuance date, and
as of June 30, 2021, to be $51,216,058 and $29,527,224, respectively.

Income/(Loss) before Income Tax Benefit
As a result of the above results
of operations, we reported an income/(loss) before income tax benefit of ($5,382,487) and ($497,894) for the three months ended
June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, a decrease of $4,884,593 (981%).
Income Tax Benefit
We did not record an income tax
expense related to our income for the three months ended June 30, 2021 due to our overall net operating loss carryforwards available.
We have further determined to continue providing a full valuation reserve on our net deferred tax assets as of June 30, 2021. We had approximately
$76,070,000 of net operating loss carryforwards and $1,795,000 of research and development tax credit carryforwards as of June 30, 2021
available to offset future net taxable income.
Net Income/(Loss)
As a result of the above results
of operations, we reported net income/(loss) of ($5,382,487) and ($497,894) for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020,
respectively, a decrease of $4,884,593 (981%).
Basic and Diluted Income/(Loss) per Share
The basic and diluted income/(loss)
per share was ($0.10) and ($0.03) for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Basic income (loss) per share
is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. For the three months ended June 30, 2021 and
2020, all shares issuable upon conversion of convertible debt and the exercise
of outstanding stock options and warrants were antidilutive, and, therefore, not included in the computation of diluted income (loss)
per share.

Revenues
We
sell our products and services to law enforcement and commercial customers in the following manner:
●
Sales
to domestic customers are made directly to the end customer (typically a law enforcement agency or a commercial customer) through
our sales force, comprised of our employees. Revenue is recorded when the product is shipped to the end customer.
●
Sales
to international customers are made through independent distributors who purchase products from us at a wholesale price and sell
to the end user (typically law enforcement agencies or a commercial customer) at a retail price. The distributor retains the margin
as its compensation for its role in the transaction. The distributor generally maintains product inventory, customer receivables
and all related risks and rewards of ownership. Revenue is recorded when the product is shipped to the distributor consistent with
the terms of the distribution agreement.
●
Repair
parts and services for domestic and international customers are generally handled by our inside customer service employees. Revenue
is recognized upon shipment of the repair parts and acceptance of the service or materials by the end customer.
We
may discount our prices on specific orders based upon the size of the order, the specific customer and the competitive landscape.

The
COVID-19 pandemic had an impact on our revenues during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and we expect it to adversely affect our revenues
during the remainder of 2021; however, the impact is beginning to lessen. The COVID-19 pandemic had a negative impact generally on our
legacy products and, in particular our commercial event recorder hardware (DVM-250 Plus) and in-car hardware for law enforcement (DVM-800)
during the quarter. The COVID-19 pandemic had a positive impact generally on our new Shield disinfectant/sanitizer and ThermoVU product
lines.
Revenues
for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were derived from the following sources:

Product
revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were $3,631,910 and $2,820,116 respectively, an increase of $811,794 (29%),
due to the following factors:
●
The
Company generated revenues totaling over $205,907 during the six months ended June 30, 2021,
compared to $53,663 for the same period in 2020 from its new product lines. Late in the second
quarter of 2020, the Company launched two product lines in direct response to the increased
safety precautions that organizations and individuals are taking due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
ThermoVu™ was launched as a non-contact temperature-screening instrument that measures
temperature through the wrist and controls entry to facilities when temperature measurements
exceed pre-determined parameters. ThermoVu™ has optional features such as facial recognition
to improve facility security by restricting access based on temperature and/or facial recognition
reasons. ThermoVu™ provides an instant pass/fail audible tone with its temperature
display and controls access to facilities based on such results. We believe that it can be
widely applied in schools, office buildings, subway stations, airports and other public venues.
The Company also launched its Shield™ disinfectant/sanitizer product lines to fulfill
demand by current customers and others for a disinfectant and sanitizer that is less harsh
than many of the traditional products now widely distributed. The Shield™ Cleanser
product line contains a cleanser with no harsh chemicals or fumes.
The
Company began offering the Shield™ line of disinfecting products to its first responder customers including police, fire and
paramedics late in the second quarter of 2020. Commercial customers such as cruise lines, taxi-cab and para transit may also be good
candidates for the products. The Company is considering enhancing the line of disinfectant products for additional related products
including hardware to efficiently and effectively dispense the disinfectants. The Company is hopeful that its law enforcement and
commercial customers will adopt this new product offering to combat the spread of the COVID-19 virus as well as other bacteria and
viruses.
●
In
general, we have experienced pressure on our revenues as our in-car and body-worn systems are facing increased competition because
our competitors have released new products with advanced features. Additionally, our law enforcement revenues declined over the
prior period due to price-cutting and competitive actions by our competitors, adverse marketplace effects related to our patent
litigation proceedings and our recent financial condition. We introduced our EVO-HD late in the second quarter of 2019 with the goal
of enhancing our product line features to meet these competitive challenges and we started to see traction in late 2019 but sales in 2020 were hampered due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We expect customers and potential customers to review
and test the EVO-HD prior to committing to this new product platform, all of which has been delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We experienced
substantial increases in EVO-HD revenues during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and believe that customers are recognizing and are
attracted to its advanced features.
36
●
The
COVID-19 pandemic has continued to delay the shipment of law enforcement orders since the
first quarter of 2020 as police forces and governments deal with its impact. In addition,
our salesmen were generally unable to meet with and demonstrate our products to our law enforcement
customers because of travel and other restrictions imposed by cities and states due to the
COVID-19 pandemic. In person demonstration of our products to potential customers is generally
important in order to obtain new customers or upgrade existing customers. Our product sales
to law enforcement increased during the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same
period in 2020, as the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic was at its peak.
The
COVID-19 pandemic impact has begun to lessen, although the shipment of commercial orders during the six months ended June 30, 2021
remain slow, as cruise lines, taxi cabs, paratransit and other commercial customers continue to deal with its impact. In addition,
our salesmen were generally unable to meet with and demonstrate our products to our commercial customers because of travel and other
restrictions imposed by cities and states due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In person demonstration of our products to potential customers
is generally required in order to obtain new customers or upgrade existing customers. Our product sales to commercial customers increased
in the second quarter of 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 despite the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
●
Management
has been focusing on migrating customers, from a “hardware sale” to a service fee model. Therefore, we expect a reduction
in hardware sales as we convert these customers to a service model under which we provide the hardware as part of a recurring monthly
service fee. In that respect, we introduced a monthly subscription agreement plan for our body worn cameras and related equipment
during the second quarter of 2020 that allowed law enforcement agencies to pay a monthly service fee to obtain body worn cameras
without incurring a significant upfront capital outlay. This program continues to hold traction, resulting in recurring revenues
over a span of three to five years.
Service
and other revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were $1,397,591 and $1,337,820, respectively, an increase of $59,771
(4%), due to the following factors:
●
Cloud
revenues were $488,738 and $508,132 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, a decrease of $19,394 (4%). We
have experienced increased interest in our cloud solutions for law enforcement primarily due to the deployment of our new cloud-based
EVO-HD in-car system; however, the fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic and related business shut-downs affected our commercial customers
usage of cloud services and lessened cloud revenues.
●
Revenues
from extended warranty services were $487,307 and $668,073 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, a decrease
of $180,766 (27%). We have many customers that have purchased extended warranty packages, primarily in our DVM-800 premium service
program. However, the affects from the COVID-19 pandemic and related restrictions on travel adversely affected our sales of DVM-800
hardware systems resulting in a decrease in their sales over the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020.
●
Installation
service revenues were $119,531 and $86,632 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, an increase of $32,900
(38%). Installation revenues tend to vary more than other service revenue types and are dependent on larger customer implementations.
The increase in installation revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period 2020 was attributable to
the resumption of previous projects pending install due to the effects related to the COVID-19 pandemic.
●
Revenues
from building rental income were $146,185 and $-0- for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, an increase of
$146,185 (100%). The Company completed the purchase of an office/warehouse building during the six months ended June 30, 2021, in which current
tenants were under a lease agreement. The agreement concludes at the end of August 2021.
37
Total
revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were $5,029,501 and $4,157,936, respectively, an increase of $871,565 (21%),
due to the reasons noted above.
Cost
of Revenue
Cost
of product revenue on units sold for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was $2,578,969 and $2,154,774, respectively, an increase
of $424,195 (20%). The increase in cost of goods sold for products is primarily due to a significant increase in inbound freights costs
for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020, as the Company received several large shipments from oversees
during the period due to the expanded product line. Furthermore, the Company increased its inventory reserve during the period, thus
increasing the cost of sales for the period.
Cost
of service and other revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was $377,849 and $345,374, respectively, an increase of
$32,475 (9%). The increase in service and other cost of goods sold is primarily due to the 4% increase in service and other revenues
for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
Total
cost of sales as a percentage of revenues was 59% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to 60% for the six months ended June
30, 2020. We believe our gross margins will improve during the remainder of 2021 if we can increase revenues (in particular service and
other revenues), shipping costs moderate and continue to reduce product warranty issues.
We
had $2,321,788 and $1,960,351 in reserves for obsolete and excess inventories at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Total
raw materials and component parts were $3,184,707 and $3,186,426 at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, a decrease of
$1,719 (1%). Finished goods balances were $8,737,310 and $6,974,291 at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, an increase
of $1,943,019 (29%). The increase in the inventory reserve is primarily due to the aging of older version inventory component parts that
were mostly or fully reserved during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The remaining reserve for inventory obsolescence is generally
provided for the level of component parts of the older versions of our PCB boards and the phase out of our DVM-750, DVM-500 Plus and
LaserAlly legacy products. We believe the reserves are appropriate given our inventory levels at June 30, 2021.
Gross
Profit
Gross
profit for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was $2,072,683 and $1,657,788, respectively, an increase of $414,895 (25%). The
increase is commensurate with the increase in product and service revenues during the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the
same period in 2020. Our goal is to improve our margins to 60% over the longer-term based on the expected margins of our EVO-HD, DVM-800,
VuLink and FirstVU HD and our cloud evidence storage and management offering if they gain traction in the marketplace and subject to
a normalizing economy in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, if revenues from these products increase, we will seek to further
improve our margins from them through economies of scale and more efficiently utilizing fixed manufacturing overhead components. We plan
to continue our initiative to more efficient management of our supply chain through outsourcing production, quantity purchases and more
effective purchasing practices.
Selling,
General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative
expenses were $7,555,261 and $5,728,307 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, an increase of $1,826,954 (32%).
The increase was fueled by an increase in travel expenses as COVID-19 restriction begin to ease, increased promotional and advertising
expenses, along with increased legal and broker fees for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The significant components of selling, general
and administrative expenses are as follows:

Research
and development expense. We continue to focus on bringing new products to market, including updates and improvements to current
products. Our research and development expenses totaled $909,964 and $845,445 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively,
an increase of $64,519 (8%). Most of our engineers are dedicated to research and development activities for new products, primarily the
ThermoVu TM , Shield TM , EVO-HD and non-mirror based DVM-250 that can be located in multiple places in a vehicle.
We expect our research and development activities will continue to trend higher in future quarters as we continue to expand our product
offerings based on our new EVO-HD product platform and as we outsource more development projects. We consider our research and development
capabilities and new product focus to be a competitive advantage and intend to continue to invest in this area on a prudent basis and
consistent with our financial resources.
Selling,
advertising and promotional expenses. Selling, advertising and promotional expense totaled $1,466,938 and $1,169,030 for the
six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, an increase of $297,908 (25%). Salesman salaries and commissions represent the
primary components of these costs and were $895,767 and $952,832 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, a decrease
of $57,065 (6%). The effective commission rate was 17.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to 22.9% for the six months
ended June 30, 2020.
Promotional
and advertising expenses totaled $571,171 during the six months ended June 30, 2021, compared to $216,198 during the six months ended
June 30, 2020, an increase of $354,973 (164%). The increase is primarily attributable to NASCAR and IndyCar seasons resuming in the 2021,
as they were conversely suspended during the same period in 2020. Additionally, trade shows are beginning to take place in the second
quarter of 2021, compared to the second quarter of 2020, when they were suspended as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Professional fees and
expense . Professional fees and expenses totaled $852,923 and $557,318 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively,
an increase of $295,605 (53%). The increase in professional fees is primarily attributable to increased legal fees surrounding the two
registered direct offerings during the six months ended June 30, 2021, along with increased legal and broker fees associated with the
Company’s acquisition of Elite Medical Billing Specialists, paired with other current due diligence items and opportunities the
Company is exploring. Additionally, increased board fees, audit fees, and service fees attribute to this increase.
Executive,
sales and administrative staff payroll. Executive, sales and administrative staff payroll expenses totaled $1,358,168 and $1,231,650
for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, an increase of $126,518 (10%). The primary reason for the increase in
executive, sales and administrative staff payroll was due to the return to regular staff levels compared to the same period in 2020,
in which the Company experienced a reduction in technical support staffing in response to the COVID-19 pandemic during the second quarter
of 2020, as the COVID-19 pandemic had significantly impacted the Company’s new event security business channel in 2020 as many
sporting venues were closed including those served by these service technicians.
Other .
Other selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $2,967,268 and $1,924,864 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020,
respectively, an increase of $1,042,404 (54%). The increase in other expenses in the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same
period in 2020 is primarily attributable to an increase in travel costs as COVID-19 restrictions begin to ease, as well as substantially
increased insurance costs compared to the same period in 2020. The increased insurance costs are primarily in general liability and related
coverages which premiums have been increased to address exposure to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Operating
Loss
For
the reasons stated above, our operating loss was $5,482,578 and $4,070,519 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively,
a decrease of $1,412,059 (35%). Operating loss as a percentage of revenues worsened to 109% in the six months ended June 30, 2021 from
98% in the same period in 2020.
Interest
Income
Interest
income increased to $132,461 for the six months ended June 30, 2021, from $21,869 in the same period of 2020, which reflected our increase
in cash and cash equivalent levels in the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020. The Company completed two
registered direct offerings in the six months ended June 30, 2021 which yielded net proceeds of approximately $66.4 million which balances
have earned increased interest income when compared to the same period in 2020 Additionally, this increase is a result of interest incurred
on debt that the Company has issued, as well as interest incurred on leased products.
39
Interest
Expense
We
incurred interest expense of $2,793 and $333,196 during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The decrease was attributable
to utilizing a portion of the net proceeds from the registered direct offerings to eliminate substantially all interest-bearing debt
balances outstanding in the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020. On May 12, 2020, the Company received
$150,000 in additional loan funding under the Economic Injury Disaster Loans (“EIDL”) program administered by the Small Business
Administration (“SBA”). Under the terms of the EIDL promissory note, interest accrues on the outstanding principal at the
rate of 3.75% per annum. The term of the EIDL promissory note is thirty years and monthly principal and interest payments are deferred
for twelve months after the date of disbursement and total $731.00 per month thereafter. The EIDL loan represent the Company’s
only interest-bearing debt outstanding as of June 30, 2021.
Secured Convertible Notes Issuance Expenses
We recognized secured convertible
notes issuance expense totaling $-0- and $34,906 during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
We elected to account for
and record our $1.667 million principal amount of the 2020 Convertible Notes issued in April 2020 on a fair value basis. Accordingly,
we were required to expense the related issuance costs to other expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Such
costs totaled $34,906 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The issuance costs primarily included related legal and accounting fees.
No similar debt issuances occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2021.
Gain on Extinguishment of debt
We recognized a gain on extinguishment
of debt totaling $10,000 and $-0- during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. During the six months ended June
30, 2021 the Company was notified that its $10,000 EIDL advance received with the PPP Loan was fully forgiven,
Change in Fair Value of Secured Convertible
Notes
We recognized a loss on change
in fair value of Secured Convertible Notes totaling $-0- and $1,300,252 during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
We elected to account for
the secured convertible notes that were issued on April 17, 2020 on their fair value basis. Therefore, we determined the fair value of
the secured convertible notes as of their issuance date of April 17, 2020 and through June 12, 2020, when they were paid in full. The
change in fair value from their issuance date of April 17, 2020 to their pay-off date was $887,807, which was recognized as a charge
in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2020.
We elected to account for
the secured convertible notes that were issued in August of 2019 on their fair value basis. Therefore, we determined the fair value of
the secured convertible notes as of their issuance date on December 31, 2019 until they were paid in full on March 3, 2020. The change
in fair value from December 31, 2019 to their pay-off date was $412,445, which was recognized as a charge in the Condensed Consolidated
Statement of Operations for the six months ended June 30, 2020.
Change in Fair Value of Proceeds Investment
Agreement
We recognized a gain on change
in fair value of proceeds investment agreement totaling $-0- and $2,885,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
We elected to account for
the PIA that we entered into with BKI in July of 2018 on its fair value basis. Therefore, we determined the fair value of the 2018 PIA
as of June 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019 to be $3,615,000 and $6,500,000, respectively. The change in fair value from December 31,
2019 to June 30, 2020 was $2,885,000, which was recognized as a gain in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the six
months ended June 30, 2020.
Change in Fair Value of Short-Term Investments
We recognized a loss on change
in fair value of short-term investments totaling $6,554 and $-0- during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Such
short-term investments are included in cash and cash equivalents as they contain original maturities of ninety (90) days or less.
Change
in Fair Value of Derivative Liabilities
During
the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company issued detachable warrants to purchase a total of 42,500,000 shares of Common Stock in
association with the two registered direct offerings previously described. The underlying warrant agreement terms provide for net cash
settlement outside the control of the Company in the event of tender offers under certain circumstances. As such, the Company is required
to treat these warrants as derivative liabilities which are valued at their estimated fair value at their issuance date and at each reporting
date with any subsequent changes reported in the condensed consolidated statement of operations as the change in fair value of warrant
derivative liabilities. The change in fair value of the warrant derivative liabilities from their issuance date to June 30, 2021 totaled
$21,688,835 which was recognized as a gain in the period ended June 30, 2021. The Company determined the fair value of such warrants
as of their issuance date, and as of June 30, 2021, to be $51,216,058 and $29,527,224, respectively.
Income/(Loss)
before Income Tax Benefit
As
a result of the above results of operations, we reported an income/(loss) before income tax benefit of $16,339,371 and ($2,832,004) for
the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, an increase of $19,171,375 (677%).
Income
Tax Benefit
We
did not record an income tax expense related to our income for the six months ended June 30, 2021 due to our overall net operating loss
carryforwards available. We have further determined to continue providing a full valuation reserve on our net deferred tax assets as
of June 30, 2021. We had approximately $76,070,000 of net operating loss carryforwards and $1,795,000 of research and development tax
credit carryforwards as of June 30, 2021 available to offset future net taxable income.
Net
Income/(Loss)
As
a result of the above results of operations, we reported net income/(loss) of $16,339,371 and ($2,832,004) for the six months ended June
30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, an increase of $19,171,375 (677%).
Basic
and Diluted Income/(Loss) per Share
The
basic and diluted income/(loss) per share was $0.34 and ($0.17) for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Basic
income (loss) per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. For the six months
ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, all shares issuable upon conversion of convertible debt and the exercise of outstanding stock options and
warrants were antidilutive, and, therefore, not included in the computation of diluted income (loss) per share.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overall:
Management’s
Liquidity Plan. The Company has historically raised capital in the form of equity and debt instruments from private and public
sources to supplement its needs for funds to support its business operational and strategic plans. In recent years the Company has accessed
the public and private capital markets to raise funding through the issuance of debt and equity. In that regard, the Company had raised
net proceeds of approximately $66.4 million in registered direct offerings of Common Stock, pre-funded warrants and warrants during the
six months ended June 30, 2021. Furthermore, the Company’s only remaining interest-bearing debt at June 30, 2021 is $500,000
remaining due on the promissory notes under the EIDL program, and the Elite contingent consideration promissory note.
The net proceeds of the registered direct offerings are sufficient to fund our operations during the remainder of 2021 and management
believes that it now has adequate liquidity for the foreseeable future from the recently completed registered direct offerings in 2021.
Such offerings were completed through utilization of the Company’s shelf-registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-239419),
which was initially filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC) on June 25, 2020 and was declared effective
on July 2, 2020 (the “Shelf Registration Statement”).
Shelf
Registration Statement on Form S-3 - The Shelf Registration Statement allows the Company to offer and sell, from time to time in
one or more offerings, any combination of our shares of Common Stock, debt securities, debt securities convertible into Common Stock
or other securities in any combination thereof, rights to purchase shares of Common Stock or other securities in any combination thereof,
warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock or other securities in any combination thereof or units consisting of Common Stock or other
securities in any combination thereof having an aggregate initial offering price not exceeding $125,000,000. The Company utilized the
Shelf Registration Statement for two recent offerings of its securities, as more fully described in Note 12 of the notes to the
Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, “Stockholders’ Equity”, raising approximately $66.4 million
in net proceeds during the six months ended June 30, 2021.
40
Management
believes that it has adequate funding to support its business operations for the foreseeable future as a result of the funds raised through
these Offerings.
Cash, cash equivalents:
As of June 30, 2021, we had cash and cash equivalents with an aggregate balance of $58,276,178, an increase from a balance of
$4,361,758 at December 31, 2020. Summarized immediately below and discussed in more detail in the subsequent subsections are the main
elements of the $53,914,420 net increase in cash during the six months ended June 30, 2021:
●
Operating activities :
$6,149,773
of net cash used in operating activities. Net cash used in operating
activities was $6,149,773 and $4,057,003 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, an increase of $2,092,770.
The increase was primarily the result of increased inventory levels and various deposits included in other assets during
the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period of 2020.
●
Investing activities :
$6,506,407
of net cash used in investing activities. Cash used in investing
activities was $6,506,407 and $163,109 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 respectively. The increase was primarily
the result of the office/warehouse building purchase the Company completed during the six months ended June 30, 2021.
Along with the acquisition of Elite, which was closed during the six months ended June 30, 2021.
●
Financing activities :
$66,570,600 of net cash provided by financing activities. Cash provided by financing activities was $66,570,600 and $20,025,977 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. During January 2021, we received net proceeds of $28,941,000 ($29,013,000 upon full exercise of the prefunded warrants) from the issuance of shares of common stock, warrants and pre-funded warrants through a registered direct offering. In addition, during February 2021, we received net proceeds of $37,447,100 ($37,557,600 upon full exercise of the prefunded warrants) from the issuance of shares of common stock, warrants and pre-funded warrants through a registered direct offering.
The net result of these activities
was an increase in cash of $53,914,420 to $58,276,178 for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
Commitments:
We had $58,276,178 of
cash and cash equivalents and net positive working capital $40,209,734 as of June 30, 2021. Accounts receivable balances represented
$2,683,931 of our net working capital at June 30, 2021. We believe we be able to collect our outstanding receivables on a timely
basis and reduce the overall level during the balance of 2021, which would provide positive cash flow to support our operations during
2021. Inventory represents $9,615,759 of our net working capital at June 30, 2021, and finished goods represented $8,737,310
of total inventory at June 30, 2021. We are actively managing the level of inventory and our goal is to reduce such level during
the balance of 2021 by our sales activities, thereby increasing cash flow to help support our operations during 2021.
Capital
Expenditures . On April 30, 2021 the Company closed on the purchase and sale
agreement to acquire a 71,361 square feet commercial office /warehouse building located
in Lenexa, Kansas which is intended to serve as the Company’s future office and warehouse needs. The building contains
approximately 30,000 square feet of office space and the remainder warehouse space. The total purchase price was approximately $5.3
million, the Company funded the purchase price with cash on hand, without the addition of external debt or other financing. The
Company will be incurring capital expenditures to renovate the building to suit its office/warehouse needs during the balance of
2021.
In
addition, the Company has completed the Elite business acquisition for a total purchase price of approximately $1.4 million during the
six months ended June 30, 2021. The Elite purchase price includes a contingent consideration promissory note payable to the sellers with
an estimated fair value of $350,000 as of June 30, 2021. Management expects to continue its roll-up strategy in the RCM (medical billing
services) industry during the balance of 2021 and beyond.
Lease commitments. On
May 13, 2020, the Company entered into an operating lease for new warehouse and office space, which will serve as its new principal executive
office and primary business location. The original lease agreement was amended on August 28, 2020 to correct the footage under lease and
monthly payment amounts resulting from such correction. The lease terms, as amended include no base rent for the first nine months and
monthly payments ranging from $12,398 to $14,741 thereafter, with a termination date of December 2026. The Company is responsible for
property taxes, utilities, insurance and its proportionate share of common area costs related to its new location. The Company took possession
of the leased facilities on June 15, 2020. The remaining lease term for the Company’s office and warehouse operating lease as of
June 30, 2021 was sixty-six months.
41
The Company entered into an operating
lease with a third party in October 2019 for copiers used for office and warehouse purposes. The terms of the lease include 48 monthly
payments of $1,598 with a maturity date of October 2023. The Company has the option to purchase such equipment at maturity for its estimated
fair market value at that point in time. The remaining lease term for the Company’s copier operating lease as of June 30, 2021 was
28 months.
Lease expense related to the
office space and copier operating leases was recorded on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Total lease expense under the two
operating leases was approximately $65,953 for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
The discount rate implicit within
the Company’s operating leases was not generally determinable, and therefore, the Company determined the discount rate based on
its incremental borrowing rate on the information available at commencement date. As of commencement date, the operating lease liabilities
reflect a weighted average discount rate of 8%.

2020 Small Business Administration Notes .
On May 4, 2020, the Company issued
a promissory note in connection with the receipt of the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loan of $1,418,900 (the “PPP
Loan”) under the SBA’s PPP Program under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”).
The PPP Loan had a two-year term and bore interest at a rate of 1.0% per annum. Monthly principal and interest payments were deferred
for nine months after the date of disbursement and totaled $79,850 per month thereafter. The PPP Loan could have been prepaid at any
time prior to maturity with no prepayment penalties. The promissory note contained events of default and other provisions customary for
a loan of this type. The PPP provides that the PPP Loan may be partially or wholly forgiven if the funds are used for certain qualifying
expenses as described in the CARES Act. The Company used the majority of the PPP Loan amount for qualifying expenses and to apply for
forgiveness of the PPP Loan in accordance with the terms of the CARES Act. The Company applied for forgiveness of the PPP Loan and December
10, 2020, the Company was fully forgiven of its $1,418,900 PPP Loan. Additionally, the Company was fully forgiven, during the three
months ended June 30, 2021, of its $10,000 EIDL advance received with the PPP Loan.
On May 12, 2020, the Company received
$150,000 in loan funding from the SBA under the EIDL program administered by the SBA, which program was expanded pursuant to the CARES
Act. The EIDL is evidenced by a secured promissory note, dated May 8, 2020, in the original principal amount of $150,000 with the SBA,
the lender.
Under the terms of the note issued
under the EIDL program, interest accrues on the outstanding principal at the rate of 3.75% per annum. The term of such note is thirty
years, though it may be payable sooner upon an event of default under such note. Monthly principal and interest payments are deferred
for twelve months after the date of disbursement and total $731 per month thereafter. Such note may be prepaid in part or in full, at
any time, without penalty. The Company granted the secured party a continuing interest in and to any and all collateral, including but
not limited to tangible and intangible personal property.
Elite Medical Billing Specialists Contingent
Consideration Promissory Note Payable .
On June 30, 2021, Nobility
Healthcare, LLC, a subsidiary of the Company, issued a Contingent Consideration Promissory Note (the “Note”) in connection
with the Stock Purchase Agreement between Nobility and Elite Medical Billing Specialists (“Elite”) of $350,000. The note
has a three-year term and bears interest at a rate of 3.00% per annum. Quarterly principal and interest payments are deferred for six
months and is due in equal quarterly installments on the seventh business day of each quarter. The principal amount of the Note is subject
to an earn-out adjustment, being the difference between the $975,000 (the “Projected Revenue”) and the cash basis revenue
(the “Measurement Period Revenue”) collected by Elite in its normal course of business from the clients existing on June
30, 2021, during the period from October 1, 2021 through September 30, 2022 (the “Measurement Period”) measured an a quarterly
basis and annualized as of the relevant period. If the Measurement Period Revenue is less than the Projected Revenue, such amount will
be subtracted from the principal balance of this Note on a dollar-for-dollar basis. If the Measurement Period Revenue is more than the
Projected Revenue, such amount will be added to the principal balance of this Note on a dollar-for-dollar basis. In no event will the
principal balance of this Note become a negative number. The maximum downward earn-out adjustment to the principal balance will be to
zero. There are no limits to the increases to the principal balance of the Note as a result of the earn-out adjustments.
The contingent consideration
Promissory Note is considered to be additional purchase price, therefore the estimated fair value of the contingent liability is recorded
as a liability at the acquisition date and the fair value is considered part of the consideration paid for the acquisition. Management
has recorded the Contingent Consideration Promissory Note at its estimated fair value of $350,000 at the acquisition date. Management
will continue to estimate the fair value of this Note at each reporting date with the change, if any recorded as a gain or loss in the
statement of operations during the relevant period.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our significant accounting policies
are summarized in Note 1, “Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies ,” to our consolidated
financial statements. While the selection and application of any accounting policy may involve some level of subjective judgments and
estimates, we believe the following accounting policies are the most critical to our financial statements, potentially involve the most
subjective judgments in their selection and application, and are the most susceptible to uncertainties and changing conditions:
●
Revenue Recognition / Allowance for Doubtful Accounts;
●
Allowance for Excess and Obsolete Inventory;
●
Warranty Reserves;
●
Fair value of warrant derivative liabilities;
●
Stock-based Compensation Expense; and
●
Accounting for Income Taxes.
43
Revenue Recognition / Allowances
for Doubtful Accounts. Revenue is recognized for the shipment of products or delivery of service when all five of the following
conditions are met:
(i)
Identify the contract with the customer;
(ii)
Identify the performance obligations in the contract;
(iii)
Determine the transaction price;
(iv)
Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
(v)
Recognize revenue when a performance obligation is satisfied.
We consider the terms and conditions
of the contract and our customary business practices in identifying our contracts under ASC 606. We determine we have a contract when
the customer order is approved, we can identify each party’s rights regarding the services to be transferred, we can identify the
payment terms for the services, we have determined the customer has the ability and intent to pay and the contract has commercial substance.
At contract inception we evaluate whether the contract includes more than one performance obligation. We apply judgment in determining
the customer’s ability and intent to pay, which is based on a variety of factors, including the customer’s historical payment
experience or, in the case of a new customer, credit and financial information pertaining to the customer.
Performance obligations promised
in a contract are identified based on the services and the products that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of
being distinct, whereby the customer can benefit from the service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily
available from third parties or from us, and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the services and the
products is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. Our performance obligations consist of (i) products, (ii) professional
services, and (iii) extended warranties.
The transaction price is determined
based on the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for transferring services to the customer. Variable consideration
is included in the transaction price if, in our judgment it is probable that a significant future reversal of cumulative revenue under
the contract will not occur. None of our contracts contain a significant financing component.
If the contract contains a single
performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. Contracts that contain multiple
performance obligations require an allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation based on the relative standalone
selling price (“SSP”).
Revenue is recognized at the
time the related performance obligation is satisfied by transferring the control of the promised service to a customer. Revenue is recognized
when control of the service is transferred to the customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration that we expect to receive in
exchange for our services. We generate all our revenue from contracts with customers.
We review all significant, unusual
or nonstandard shipments of product or delivery of services as a routine part of our accounting and financial reporting process to determine
compliance with these requirements. Extended warranties are offered on selected products, and when a customer purchases an extended warranty
the associated proceeds are treated as contract liability and recognized over the term of the extended warranty.
Our principal customers are
state, local and federal law enforcement agencies, which historically have been low risks for uncollectible accounts. However, we have
commercial customers and international distributors that present a greater risk for uncollectible accounts than such law enforcement
customers and we consider a specific reserve for bad debts based on their individual circumstances. Our historical bad debts have been
negligible, with less than $258,000 charged off as uncollectible on cumulative revenues of $241.4 million since we commenced deliveries
during 2006. As of June 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, we had provided a reserve for doubtful accounts of $123,224 and $123,224, respectively.
44
We periodically perform a specific
review of significant individual receivables outstanding for risk of loss due to uncollectability. Based on such review, we consider our
reserve for doubtful accounts to be adequate as of June 30, 2021. However, should the balance due from any significant customer ultimately
become uncollectible then our allowance for bad debts will not be sufficient to cover the charge-off and we will be required to record
additional bad debt expense in our statement of operations.
Allowance for Excess and
Obsolete Inventory. We record valuation reserves on our inventory for estimated excess or obsolete inventory items. The amount
of the reserve is equal to the difference between the cost of the inventory and the estimated market value based upon assumptions about
future demand and market conditions. On a quarterly basis, management performs an analysis of the underlying inventory to identify reserves
needed for excess and obsolescence. Management uses its best judgment to estimate appropriate reserves based on this analysis. In addition,
we adjust the carrying value of inventory if the current market value of that inventory is below its cost.
Inventories consisted of the

We balance the need to maintain
strategic inventory levels to ensure competitive delivery performance to our customers against the risk of inventory obsolescence due
to changing technology and customer requirements. As reflected above, our inventory reserves represented 19.4% of the gross inventory
balance at June 30, 2021, compared to 19.3% of the gross inventory balance at December 31, 2020. We had $2,321,788 and $1,960,351
in reserves for obsolete and excess inventories at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Total raw materials and component
parts were $3,184,707 and $3,186,426 at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, a decrease of $1,719 (1%). Finished goods
balances were $8,737,547 and $6,974,291 at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, an increase of $1,763,019 (25%).
The increase in finished goods was primarily attributable to accumulating inventory for the new and expending Shield and ThermoVU
product lines. The slight increase in the inventory reserve is primarily due to older version legacy products continuing to receive growing
reserves as they age during 2021. The remaining reserve for inventory obsolescence is generally provided for the level of component parts
of the older versions of our printed circuit boards and the phase out of our DVM-750, DVM-500 Plus and LaserAlly legacy products. We
believe the reserves are appropriate given our inventory levels at June 30, 2021.
If actual future demand or market
conditions are less favorable than those projected by management or significant engineering changes to our products that are not anticipated
and appropriately managed, additional inventory write-downs may be required in excess of the inventory reserves already established.
Warranty
Reserves. We generally provide up to a two-year parts and labor standard warranty on our products to our customers. Provisions
for estimated expenses related to product warranties are made at the time products are sold. These estimates are established using historical
information on the nature, frequency, and average cost of claims. We actively study trends of claims and take action to improve product
quality and minimize claims. Our warranty reserves were decreased to $11,562 as of June 30, 2021 compared to $31,845 as of December
31, 2020 as we begin to slow our warranty exposures through the roll-off of DVM-750 and DVM-800 units from warranty coverage. Standard
warranty exposure on the DVM-800 and DVM-250plus are the responsibility of the contract manufacturers which reduced our overall warranty
exposure as these are very popular products in our line. There is a risk that we will have higher warranty claim frequency rates and
average cost of claims than our history has indicated on our legacy mirror products on our new products for which we have limited experience.
Actual experience could differ from the amounts estimated requiring adjustments to these liabilities in future periods.
45
Warrant derivative liabilities.
On January 14, 2021 and February 1, 2021, the Company issued warrants to purchase a total of 42,550,000 shares of Common Stock. The warrant
terms provide for net cash settlement outside the control of the Company under certain circumstances in the event of tender offers. As
such, the Company is required to treat these warrants as derivative liabilities which are valued at their estimated fair value at their
issuance date and at each reporting date with any subsequent changes reported in the consolidated statements of operations as the change
in fair value of warrant derivative liabilities. Furthermore, the Company revalues the fair value of warrant derivative liability as of
the date the warrant is exercised with the resulting warrant derivative liability transitioned to equity.
The Company has utilized the following
assumptions in its Black-Scholes option valuation model to calculate the estimated fair value of the warrant derivative liabilities as

During the six months ended June
30, 2021, holders of pre-funded warrants exercised a total of 18,250,000 warrants which were fair valued at $1,817,549 at their date of
issuance and recorded as a derivative warrant liability. On the date of exercise such pre-funded warrants were fair valued at zero, which
was transitioned to permanent equity during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The Company reported the $1,817,549 change in fair value
from their issuance date to their exercise date in the condensed statements of operations as the change in fair value of warrant derivative
liabilities.
Stock-based Compensation
Expense . We grant stock options to our employees and directors and such benefits provided are share-based payment awards which
require us to make significant estimates related to determining the value of our share-based compensation. Our expected stock-price volatility
assumption is based on historical volatilities of the underlying stock that are obtained from public data sources and there were no stock
options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2021.
If factors change and we develop
different assumptions in future periods, the compensation expense that we record in the future may differ significantly from what we have
recorded in the current period. There is a high degree of subjectivity involved when using option pricing models to estimate share-based
compensation. Changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect our estimates of fair values of our share-based compensation.
Certain share-based payment awards, such as employee stock options, may expire worthless or otherwise result in zero intrinsic value compared
to the fair values originally estimated on the grant date and reported in our financial statements. Alternatively, values may be realized
from these instruments that are significantly in excess of the fair values originally estimated on the grant date and reported in our
financial statements. Although the fair value of employee share-based awards is determined using an established option pricing model,
that value may not be indicative of the fair value observed in a willing buyer/willing seller market transaction. In addition, we account
for forfeitures as they occur.
Accounting for Income Taxes.
Accounting for income taxes requires significant estimates and judgments on the part of management. Such estimates and judgments
include, but are not limited to, the effective tax rate anticipated to apply to tax differences that are expected to reverse in the future,
the sufficiency of taxable income in future periods to realize the benefits of net deferred tax assets and net operating losses currently
recorded and the likelihood that tax positions taken in tax returns will be sustained on audit.
46
As required by authoritative
guidance, we record deferred tax assets or liabilities based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities
using currently enacted rates that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Authoritative guidance also requires
that deferred tax assets be reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the deferred tax
asset will not be realized. As of December 31, 2020, cumulative valuation allowances in the amount of $24,595,000 were recorded in connection
with the net deferred income tax assets. We determined that it was appropriate to continue to provide a full valuation reserve on our
net deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2020 because of the overall net operating loss carryforwards available. We expect to continue
to maintain a full valuation allowance until we determine that we can sustain a level of profitability that demonstrates our ability to
realize these assets. To the extent we determine that the realization of some or all of these benefits is more likely than not based upon
expected future taxable income, a portion or all of the valuation allowance will be reversed. Such a reversal would be recorded as an
income tax benefit and, for some portion related to deductions for stock option exercises, an increase in shareholders’ equity.
As required by authoritative
guidance, we have performed a comprehensive review of our portfolio of uncertain tax positions in accordance with recognition standards
established by the FASB, an uncertain tax position represents our expected treatment of a tax position taken in a filed tax return or
planned to be taken in a future tax return, that has not been reflected in measuring income tax expense for financial reporting purposes.
We have no recorded liability as of December 31, 2020 representing uncertain tax positions.
We have generated substantial
deferred income tax assets related to our operations primarily from the charge to compensation expense taken for stock options, certain
tax credit carryforwards and net operating loss carryforwards. For us to realize the income tax benefit of these assets, we must generate
sufficient taxable income in future periods when such deductions are allowed for income tax purposes. In some cases where deferred taxes
were the result of compensation expense recognized on stock options, our ability to realize the income tax benefit of these assets is
also dependent on our share price increasing to a point where these options have intrinsic value at least equal to the grant date fair
value and are exercised. In assessing whether a valuation allowance is needed in connection with our deferred income tax assets, we have
evaluated our ability to generate sufficient taxable income in future periods to utilize the benefit of the deferred income tax assets.
We continue to evaluate our ability to use recorded deferred income tax asset balances. If we fail to generate taxable income for financial
reporting in future years, no additional tax benefit would be recognized for those losses, since we will not have accumulated enough positive
evidence to support our ability to utilize net operating loss carryforwards in the future. Therefore, we may be required to increase our
valuation allowance in future periods should our assumptions regarding the generation of future taxable income not be realized.
Inflation and Seasonality
Inflation has not materially
affected us during the past fiscal year. We do not believe that our business is seasonal in nature however; we usually generate higher
revenues during the second half of the calendar year than in the first half.
