The following discussion and
analysis should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in Item 1 of
this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 included in our most recent
Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Neonode
Inc., collectively with its subsidiaries, is referred to in this Form 10-Q as “Neonode”, “we”, “us”,
“our”, “registrant”, or “Company”.
Overview
Our company provides advanced
optical sensing solutions for contactless touch, touch, and gesture sensing. We also provide software solutions for scene analysis that
feature advanced machine learning algorithms to detect and track persons and objects in video streams for cameras and other types of imagers.
We base our contactless touch, touch, and gesture sensing products and solutions on our zForce technology platform and our scene analysis
solutions on our MultiSensing technology platform. We market and sell our solutions to customers in many different markets and segments
including, but not limited to, office equipment, automotive, industrial automation, medical, military and avionics.
License
Sales
We license our zForce technology
to OEMs, ODMs and Tier 1 suppliers who embed our technology into products they develop, manufacture and sell. Since 2010, our licensing
customers have sold approximately 86 million devices that use our patented technology.
As
of March 31, 2022, we had 34 valid technology license agreements with global OEMs, ODMs and Tier 1 suppliers.
Our licensing customer base
is primarily in the automotive and printer segments. Eleven of our licensing customers are currently shipping products that embed our
technology. We anticipate current customers will continue to ship products with our technology in 2022 and in future years. We also expect
to expand our customer base with a number of new customers who will be looking to ship new products incorporating our zForce and MultiSensing
technologies as they complete final product development and release cycles. We typically earn our license fees on a per unit basis when
our customers ship products using our technology, but in the future other business models may also be used.
26
Product
sales
In
addition to our technical solutions business, we design and manufacture TSMs that incorporate our patented technology. We sell our TSMs
to OEMs, ODMs and systems integrators for use in their products. We also sell our Neonode branded AirBar product that incorporates one
of our TSMs through distributors.
We
utilize a robotic manufacturing process designed specifically for our components. Our TSMs are commercial-off-the-shelf products based
on our patent-protected zForce technology platform and can support the development of contactless touch, touch, gesture and object sensing
solutions that, paired with our technology licensing offering, give us a full range of options to enter and compete in key markets.
In
October 2017, we began selling our TSMs to customers in the industrial and consumer electronics segments. Over time, we expect a significant
portion of our revenues will be derived from TSM sales.
Non-recurring
engineering services
We also offer non-recurring
engineering (“NRE”) services related to application development linked to our TSMs and our zForce and MultiSensing technology
platforms on a flat rate or hourly rate basis.
Typically,
our licensing customers require engineering support during the development and initial manufacturing phase for their products using our
technology, while our TSM customers require hardware or software modifications to our standard products or support during the development
and initial manufacturing phases of their products using our technology. In both cases we can offer NRE services and earn NRE revenues.
Impact
of COVID-19
Our near-term growth and overall
business have been and are continuing to be adversely impacted by COVID-19 and we expect they will continue to be impacted by the pandemic
and its impact on the global economy. Although we have noted additional demand for our TSMs for use in contactless touch products and
some increases in sales of licenses, COVID-19 has negatively impacted some of our customers’ businesses and their sales volumes
and new development projects and product launches, which, in turn, has impacted our business. Our operations have been and are continuing
to be impacted by the pandemic as lockdowns and travel restrictions have forced us to pause business-related travel and our employees
to a large extent have and still are working remotely. The extent of the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on our operational and financial
performance going forward will depend on future developments, including the duration, spread and intensity of the pandemic, all of which
are uncertain and difficult to predict at this time. We are continuing to monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and we may take
further actions in response. There is a risk that we will not be successful in mitigating the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on our
business, and our sales may not increase in line with our expectations and our operating margins could fluctuate or decline.
Impact of War in Ukraine
The ongoing war in Ukraine has impacted the global economy as the United
States, the UK, the EU, and other countries have imposed broad export controls and financial and economic sanctions against Russia (a
large exporter of commodities), Belarus, and specific areas of Ukraine, and may continue to impose additional sanctions or other measures.
Russia may impose its own counteractive measures. We do not procure materials directly from Ukraine or Russia, but the war in Ukraine
may further exacerbate ongoing supply chain disruptions that are occurring across the globe. While the precise effects on global economies
from the war and related sanctions remain uncertain, there has been significant volatility in the financial markets, fluctuations in currency
exchange rates, and an increase in energy and commodity prices globally. Should the war continue or escalate, there may be various economic
and security consequences including, but not limited to, additional supply shortages of different kinds; further increases in prices of
commodities; significant disruptions in logistics infrastructure and telecommunications services; and risks relating to the unavailability
of information technology systems and infrastructure. The resulting impacts on the global economy, financial markets, inflation, interest
rates, and unemployment, among others, could adversely impact economic and financial conditions, and may disrupt the global economy’s
ongoing recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Net
Revenues
All
of our sales for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 were to customers located in the United States, Europe and Asia.
The decrease of (20.8)% in
total net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the same period in 2021 is mainly explained by component shortage
within the printer industry and automotive industry and lock-downs in APAC, as a result of the pandemic.
License
Fees
The
decrease in license fee revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021 is mostly pandemic-related.
The component shortage within the printer and automotive industries experienced during the second and third quarters of 2021 as a result
of the pandemic reduced production volumes of printers and cars equipped with our new technology.
Product
Sales
Revenues from product sales
were $0.1 million for the three month ended March 31, 2022 compared to $0.4 million for the same period in 2021. In the first half of
2021 we saw an increase in product sales. In the second half of 2021 and continuing in the first quarter of 2022, product sales were negatively
impacted when COVID-19 driven lock-downs were implemented in APAC. Our elevator and kiosks customers in Asia have been first adopters
for our contactless touch technology and as expected, most of our initial TSM sales are related to retrofit solutions. New customer equipment
launches have much longer product development and production cycles that can take 4 to 18 months or longer.
Non-recurring
Engineering Revenues
Most
of our non-recurring revenues are related to both hardware and software related customization of our TSMs. Non-recurring revenues increased
for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the same period in 2021.
There
were no revenues related to Remote Sensing Solutions for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Gross
Margin
Our
combined total gross margin was 95% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 83% for the three months ended March 31, 2021. For
the three months ended March 31, 2022, gross margin related to products was 65% compared to 24% for the same period in 2021.
Our
cost of sales includes the direct cost of production of certain customer prototypes, costs of engineering personnel, engineering consultants
to complete the engineering design contracts. Cost of goods sold for TSMs includes fully burdened manufacturing costs, outsourced final
assembly costs, and component costs of TSMs.
Research
and Development
Research
and development (“R&D”) expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were $1.0 million For the same period in 2021,
the R&D expenses were $1.1 million. R&D expenses primarily consist of personnel-related costs in addition to external consultancy
costs, such as testing, certifying and measurements, along with costs related to developing and building new product prototypes. The
decrease was primarily related to the move of administrative costs related to production from R&D to general and administrative partly
offset by reallocation of overhead costs from general and administrative to R&D.
Sales
and Marketing
Sales
and marketing expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were $0.6 million. The sales and marketing costs for the same period
in 2021 were $0.8 million. The decrease for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were primarily due to lower staff expenses.
Our
sales and marketing activities focus on OEM, ODM and Tier 1 customers who will license our technology or purchase and embed our TSMs
into their products.
General
and Administrative
General
and administrative (“G&A”) expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were $1.0 million. The G&A expenses
for the three months ended March 31, 2021 were $1.1 million. The decrease was primarily related to a reallocation of overhead costs from
G&A to R&D partly offset by the move of administrative costs related to production from R&D to G&A.
Income
Taxes
Our
effective tax rate was (3)% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and (2)% for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The negative
tax rate is due to withholding taxes from sales. We recorded valuation allowances for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022 and
March 31, 2021 for deferred tax assets related to net operating losses due to the uncertainty of realization.
Net
Loss
As
a result of the factors discussed above, we recorded a net loss attributable to Neonode of $1.4 million for the three months ended March
31, 2022 and $1.6 million for the same period in 2021.
30
Contractual
Obligations and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We
previously agreed to secure the value of inventory purchased by one of our AirBars manufacturing partners. At December 31, 2021, the
guaranteed amount was decreased from $100,000 to $0. We do not have any other transactions, arrangements, or other relationships with
unconsolidated entities that are reasonably likely to affect our liquidity or capital resources other than the operating leases incurred
in the normal course of business.
We
have no special purpose or limited purpose entities that provide off-balance sheet financing, liquidity, or market or credit risk support.
We do not engage in leasing, hedging, research and development services, or other relationships that expose us to liability that is not
reflected on the face of the consolidated financial statements.
Contractual
Obligations and Commercial Commitments
Non-Recurring
Engineering Development Costs
On
April 25, 2013, we entered into an Analog Device Development Agreement with an effective date of December 6, 2012 (the “NN1002
Agreement”) with Texas Instruments (“TI”) pursuant to which TI agreed to integrate our intellectual property into an
ASIC, which is used in our licensed technology. Under the terms of the NN1002 Agreement, we agreed to pay TI $500,000 of non-recurring
engineering costs at the rate of $0.25 per ASIC for each of the first 2 million ASICs sold. As of March 31, 2022, we had made no payments
to TI under the NN1002 Agreement.

Equipment
Subject to Finance Lease
In
April 2014, we entered into a lease for certain specialized milling equipment. Under the terms of the lease agreement we are obligated
to purchase the equipment at the end of the original six-year lease term for 10% of the original purchase price of the equipment. In
accordance with relevant accounting guidance the lease is classified as a finance lease. The lease payments and depreciation period began
on July 1, 2014 when the equipment went into service. On July 1, 2020 the lease contract was extended for one year. The implicit interest
rate of the extended lease period is 9.85% per annum. The lease expired July 1, 2021 and we paid the residual value.
Between
the second and fourth quarters of 2016, we entered into six leases for component production equipment. Under the terms of five of the
lease agreements we are obligated to purchase the equipment at the end of the original 3-5 year lease terms for 5-10% of the original
purchase price of the equipment. In accordance with relevant accounting guidance the leases are classified as finance leases. The lease
payments and depreciation periods began between June and November 2016 when the equipment went into service. The implicit interest rate
of the leases is currently approximately 3% per annum. One of the leases is a hire-purchase agreement where the equipment is required
to be paid off after five years. In accordance with relevant accounting guidance the lease is classified as a finance lease. The lease
payments and depreciation period began on July 1, 2016 when the equipment went into service. The implicit interest rate of the lease
is currently approximately 3% per annum. On April 1, 2022, one of lease contracts was extended for three years. The implicit interest
rate of the extended lease period is 2.7% per annum.
In
2017, we entered into a lease for component production equipment. Under the terms of the lease agreement the lease will be renewed within
one year of the end of the original four-year lease term. In accordance with relevant accounting guidance the lease is classified as
a finance lease. The lease payments and depreciation periods began in May 2017 when the equipment went into service. The implicit interest
rate of the lease is currently approximately 1.5% per annum. On November 1, 2021 the lease contract was extended for two year. The implicit
interest rate of the extended lease period is 1.5% per annum.
In
2018, we entered into a lease for component production equipment. Under the terms of the agreement, the lease will be renewed within
one year of the original four-year lease term. In accordance with relevant accounting guidance the lease is classified as a finance lease.
The lease payments and depreciation periods began in August 2018 when the equipment went into service. The implicit interest rate of
the lease is currently approximately 1.5% per annum.
During
2021 we terminated one finance lease by purchasing the related equipment and extended one finance lease for an additional two years.
See
Note 7 – Leases in the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Part I, Item 1) for further discussion.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Our
liquidity is dependent on many factors, including sales volume, operating profit and the efficiency of asset use and turnover. Our future
liquidity will be affected by, among other things:
●
licensing
of our technology;
●
purchases
of our TSMs and AirBars;
●
operating
expenses;
●
timing
of our OEM customer product shipments;
●
timing
of payment for our technology licensing agreements;
●
gross
profit margin; and
●
ability
to raise additional capital, if necessary.
As
of March 31, 2022, we had cash of $15.1 million compared to $17.4 million as of December 31, 2021. Based on our current cash position,
and assuming currently planned expenditures and level of operations, we believe we have sufficient capital to fund operations for the
twelve-month period subsequent to the date of this Report.
Working
capital (current assets less current liabilities) was $17.9 million as of March 31, 2022, compared to $19.1 million as of December 31,
2021.
32
Net cash used in operating
activities for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $2.3 million and was primarily the result of a net loss of $1.4 million and
approximately $0.4 million in non-cash operating expenses, comprised of depreciation and amortization and amortization of operating lease
right-of-use assets, partly offset by changes in operating assets and liabilities of $(0.7) million.
Net cash used in operating
activities for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $2.0 million and was primarily the result of a net loss of $1.6 million and approximately
$0.2 million in non-cash operating expenses, comprised of stock based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization and amortization
of operating lease right-of-use assets.
Accounts receivable and unbilled
revenues decreased by approximately $0.1 million as of March 31, 2022 compared to December 31, 2021. This was due to lower revenues.
Inventory increased by approximately
$1.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to December 31, 2021, primarily due to purchase of components to secure
production in line with estimated product sales.
Net cash used in financing
activities of $61,000 and $148,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, was the result of principal payments
on finance.
We have incurred significant
operating losses and negative cash flows from operations since our inception. The Company incurred net losses of approximately $1.4 million
and $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and had an accumulated deficit of approximately $204.0
million and $202.6 million as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. In addition, operating activities used cash of approximately
$2.3 million and $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
The
condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates continuity
of operations and the realization of assets and the repayment of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Management evaluated
the significance of the Company’s operating loss and determined that the Company’s cash position and considering the Company’s
current operating plan and other sources of potential capital, including the ATM Facility, would be sufficient to alleviate concerns
about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
In
the future, we may require sources of capital in addition to cash on hand to continue operations and to implement our strategy. If our
operations do not become cash flow positive, we may be forced to seek equity investments or debt arrangements. Historically, we have
been able to access the capital markets through sales of common stock and warrants to generate liquidity. Our management believes it
could raise capital through public or private offerings if needed to provide us with sufficient liquidity.
No
assurances can be given, however, that we will be successful in obtaining such additional financing on reasonable terms, or at all. If
adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms, or at all, we may be unable to adequately fund our business plans and it could
have a negative effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, no assurance can be given that stockholders
will approve an increase in the number of our authorized shares of common stock if needed. The issuance of equity securities or securities
convertible into equity could dilute the value of shares of our common stock and cause the market price to fall, and the issuance of
debt securities could impose restrictive covenants that could impair our ability to engage in certain business transactions.
The
functional currency of our foreign subsidiaries is the applicable local currency, the Swedish Krona, the Japanese Yen, the South Korean
Won and the Taiwan Dollar. They are subject to foreign currency exchange rate risk. Any increase or decrease in the exchange rate of
the U.S. Dollar compared to the Swedish Krona, Japanese Yen, South Korean Won or Taiwan Dollar will impact our future operating results.
33
Registered
Direct Offering
On
October 21, 2021, we entered into a placement agency agreement with Pareto Securities Inc. and Pareto Securities AB pursuant to which
we sold to certain Swedish and other European investors an aggregate of 1,808,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $7.75 per
share in a registered direct offering that closed on October 26, 2021 (the “Offering”). We received net proceeds of approximately
$13.1 million from the Offering after deducting placement agent fees and offering expenses.
At-the-Market
Offering Program
On
May 10, 2021, we entered into an At Market Issuance Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with B. Riley Securities, Inc.
(“B. Riley Securities”) with respect to an “at the market” offering program (the “ATM Facility”),
under which we may, from time to time, in our sole discretion, issue and sell through B. Riley Securities, acting as sales agent, up
to $25 million of shares of our common stock.
Pursuant
to the Sale Agreement, we may sell the shares through B. Riley Securities by any method permitted that is deemed an “at the market”
offering as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. B. Riley Securities will use commercially reasonable efforts
consistent with its normal trading and sales practices to sell the shares from time to time, based upon instructions from us (including
any price or size limits or other customary parameters or conditions we may impose). We will pay B. Riley Securities a commission of
3.0% of the gross sales price per share sold under the Sales Agreement.
We
are not obligated to sell any shares under the Sale Agreement. The offering of shares pursuant to the Sale Agreement will terminate upon
the earlier to occur of (i) the issuance and sale, through B. Riley Securities, of all of the shares subject to the Sales Agreement and
(ii) termination of the Sale Agreement in accordance with its terms.
During
the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, we sold an aggregate of 235,722 shares of common stock under the ATM Facility, resulting in
net proceeds of approximately $1,984,000 after payment of commissions to B. Riley Securities and other expenses of $66,000. During the
three month ended March 31, 2022, no shares were sold under the ATM Facility.
Critical
Accounting Policies
Our
contracts with customers may include promises to transfer multiple products and services to a customer, particularly when one of our
customers contracts with us for a product and related engineering services fees for customizing that product for our customer. Determining
whether products and services are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately may require significant
judgment. Judgment may also be required to determine the SSP for each distinct performance obligation identified, although we generally
structure our contracts such that performance obligations and pricing for each performance obligation are specifically addressed. We
currently have no outstanding contracts with multiple performance obligations; however, we recently negotiated a contract that may include
multiple performance obligations in the future.
Judgment
is also required to determine when control of products passes from us to our distributors, as well as the amounts of product that may
be returned to us. Our products are sold with a right of return, and we may provide other credits or incentives to our customers, which
could result in variability when determining the amount of revenue to recognize. At the end of each reporting period, we use product
returns history and additional information that becomes available to estimate returns and credits. We do not recognize revenue if it
is probable that a significant reversal of any incremental revenue would occur.
Finally,
judgment is required to determine the amount of unbilled license fees at the end of each reporting period.
