On
January 4, 2021, The Nasdaq Stock Market notified us that due to our failure to hold our annual meeting before December 31, 2020,
we were no longer in compliance with their listing rule which requires us to hold our annual meeting before December 31 of each
year. The Company intends to hold a Special Meeting in lieu of its 2020 Annual Meeting in May 2021, which will have the effect
of curing this deficiency.
Further on April 19, 2021 and April 21, 2021, the Nasdaq Stock Market
notified the Company that it was not in compliance with the Nasdaq’s rules for continued listing because the Company has not yet
filed its 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 (“2020 10-K”), as required by Nasdaq Rule 5250(c)(1) (the April
21 notification superseded the April 19 notification). The most recent Nasdaq notice requires the Company to submit its plan to regain
compliance, no later than May 19, 2021. The filing of this 10-K will cure this deficiency.
Holders
of Record
As
of May 15, 2021, there were 10,029,433 outstanding shares of common stock held by 86 stockholders of record.
Dividends
We
have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our shares of common stock, and we do not expect to pay cash dividends in the
foreseeable future. We anticipate that we will retain any earnings to support operations and to finance the growth and development
of our business. Any future determination relating to our dividend policy will be made at the discretion of our Board of Directors
and will depend on a number of factors, including future earnings, capital requirements, financial conditions and future prospects
and other factors the Board of Directors may deem relevant. Furthermore, our ability to pay dividends is limited by the Delaware
General Corporation Law, which provides that a corporation may pay dividends only out of existing “surplus,” which
is defined as the amount by which a corporation’s net assets exceeds its stated capital.
Refer
to Note 9, Stockholders’ Equity, in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for a non–cash dividend related
to the decrease in the exercise price of certain warrants.

7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
This
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations includes a number of forward-looking
statements that reflect Management’s current views with respect to future events and financial performance. You can identify
these statements by forward-looking words such as “may” “will,” “expect,” “anticipate,”
“believe,” “estimate” and “continue,” or similar words. Those statements include statements
regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of us and members of our management team as well as the assumptions on which
such statements are based. Prospective investors are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of
future performance and involve risk and uncertainties, and that actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by
such forward-looking statements.
26
Readers
are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in this report and in our other reports filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission. Important factors known to us could cause actual results to differ materially from those
in forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions,
the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes in the future operating results over time. We believe that its assumptions are
based upon reasonable data derived from and known about our business and operations and the business and operations of our company.
No assurances are made that actual results of operations or the results of our future activities will not differ materially from
its assumptions. Factors that could cause differences include, but are not limited to, expected market demand for our services,
fluctuations in pricing for materials, and competition.
Our
Business
On
February 1, 2019, we acquired SCWorx Corp. in a stock for stock transaction, in connection with which we changed our name to SCWorx
Corp. and changed our trading symbol on the Nasdaq to WORX. SCWorx is a leading provider of data content and services related
to the repair, normalization and interoperability of information for healthcare providers and big data analytics for the healthcare
industry.
SCWorx
has developed and markets health information technology solutions and associated services that improve healthcare processes and
information flow within hospitals. SCWorx’s software platform enables healthcare providers to simplify, repair, and organize
its data (“data normalization”), allows the data to be utilized across multiple internal software applications (“interoperability”)
and provides the basis for sophisticated data analytics (“big data”). SCWorx’s solutions are designed to improve
the flow of information quickly and accurately between the existing supply chain, electronic medical records, clinical systems,
and patient billing functions. The software is designed to achieve multiple operational benefits such as supply chain cost reductions,
decreased accounts receivables aging, accelerated and more accurate billing, contract optimization, increased supply chain management
and cost visibility, synchronous charge description master (“CDM”) and control of vendor rebates and contract administration
fees.
SCWorx
empowers healthcare providers to maintain comprehensive access and visibility to an advanced business intelligence that enables
better decision-making and reductions in product costs and utilization, ultimately leading to accelerated and accurate patient
billing. SCWorx’s software modules perform separate functions as follows:
●
virtualized
Item Master File repair, expansion and automation;
●
CDM
management;
●
contract
management;
●
request
for proposal automation;
●
rebate
management;
●
big
data analytics modeling; and
●
data
integration and warehousing.
SCWorx
continues to provide transformational data-driven solutions to many healthcare providers in the United States. The Company’s
clients are geographically dispersed throughout the country. The Company’s focus is to assist healthcare providers with
issues that they have pertaining to data interoperability. SCWorx provides these solutions through a combination of direct sales
and relationships with strategic partners.
SCWorx’s
software solutions are delivered to its clients within a fixed term period, typically a three-to-five-year contracted term, where
such software is hosted in SCWorx data centers (Amazon Web Service’s “AWS” or RackSpace) and accessed by such
clients through a secure connection in a software as a service (“SaaS”) delivery method.
SCWorx
currently sells its solutions and services in the United States to hospitals and health systems through its direct sales force
and its distribution and reseller partnerships.
27
SCWorx, as part of the acquisition of Alliance MMA, operated an online
event ticketing platform focused on serving regional MMA (“mixed martial arts”) promotions.
We
currently host our solutions, serve our customers, and support our operations in the United States through an agreement with a
third party hosting and infrastructure provider, RackSpace. We incorporate standard IT security measures, including but not limited
to; firewalls, disaster recovery, backup, etc. Our operations are dependent upon the integrity, security and consistent operation
of various information technology systems and data centers that process transactions, communication systems and various other
software applications used throughout our operations. Disruptions in these systems could have an adverse impact on our operations.
We could encounter difficulties in developing new systems or maintaining and upgrading existing systems. Such difficulties could
lead to significant expenses or to losses due to disruption in our business operations.
In
addition, our information technology systems are subject to the risk of infiltration or data theft. The techniques used to obtain
unauthorized access, disable or degrade service, or sabotage information technology systems change frequently and may be difficult
to detect or prevent over long periods of time. Moreover, the hardware, software or applications we develop or procure from third
parties may contain defects in design or manufacture or other problems that could unexpectedly compromise the security of our
information systems. Unauthorized parties may also attempt to gain access to our systems or facilities through fraud or deception
aimed at our employees, contractors or temporary staff. In the event that the security of our information systems is compromised,
confidential information could be misappropriated, and system disruptions could occur. Any such misappropriation or disruption
could cause significant harm to our reputation, lead to a loss of sales or profits or cause us to incur significant costs to reimburse
third parties for damages.
Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates
Management’s
discussion and analysis of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial
statements. These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
(“GAAP”) in the United States which requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of
assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. By their nature, these
estimates and judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. We evaluate our estimates based on our historical experience
and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates relate to revenue recognition,
the assessment of recoverability of goodwill and intangible assets, the assessment of useful lives and the recoverability of property,
plant and equipment, the valuation and recognition of stock-based compensation expense, recognition and measurement of deferred
income tax assets and liabilities, the assessment of unrecognized tax benefits, and others. Actual results could differ from those
estimates, and material effects on our consolidated operating results and consolidated financial position may result. Refer to
Note 3, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, for a full description
of our accounting policies.
Basis
of Presentation
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance to U.S. GAAP and the rules and regulations of
the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of SCWorx and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated
in consolidation.
Principles
of Consolidation
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material
intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reverse
Stock Split
On
February 1, 2019, we effected a 1-for-19 reverse stock split with respect to the outstanding shares of our common stock. The reverse
stock split was deemed effective at the open of business on February 4, 2019. The reverse stock split did not affect the total
number of shares of common stock that we are authorized to issue, which is 45,000,000 shares. The reverse stock split also did
not affect the total number of shares of Series A preferred stock that we are authorized to issue, which is 900,000 shares. Share
and per share data have been adjusted for all periods presented to reflect the reverse stock split unless otherwise noted.
28
Cash
Cash
is maintained with various financial institutions. Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit
risk consist principally of cash deposits. Accounts at each institution are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
up to $250,000.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
Management
applies fair value accounting for significant financial assets and liabilities and non-financial assets and liabilities that are
recognized or disclosed at fair value in the consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis. Management defines fair value
as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market
participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities, which are required
to be recorded at fair value, management considers the principal or most advantageous market in which we would transact and the
market-based risk measurements or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, such as risks
inherent in valuation techniques, transfer restrictions and credit risk. Fair value is estimated by applying the following hierarchy,
which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon
the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement: Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets
for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets
and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or other inputs that are observable
or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 - Inputs
that are generally unobservable and typically reflect management’s estimate of assumptions that market participants would
use in pricing the asset or liability.
Concentration
of Credit and Other Risks
Financial
instruments that potentially subject our company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, accounts
receivable and warrants. We believe that any concentration of credit risk in its accounts receivable is substantially mitigated
by our evaluation process, relatively short collection terms and the high level of credit worthiness of its customers. We perform
ongoing internal credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition, obtain deposits and limit the amount of credit
extended when deemed necessary but generally require no collateral.
For
the year ended December 31, 2020, we had two customers representing 22% and 17% of aggregate revenues. For the year ended December
31, 2019, we had two customers representing 19% and 10% of aggregate revenues. At December 31, 2020, we had three customers representing
35%, 32% and 10% of aggregate accounts receivable. At December 31, 2019, we had four customers representing 17%, 14%, 10% and
10% of aggregate accounts receivable.
Allowance
for Doubtful Accounts
Our
company continually monitors customer payments and maintains a reserve for estimated losses resulting from our customers’
inability to make required payments. In determining the reserve, we evaluate the collectability of our accounts receivable based
upon a variety of factors. In cases where we become aware of circumstances that may impair a specific customer’s ability
to meet its financial obligations, we record a specific allowance against amounts due. For all other customers, we recognize allowances
for doubtful accounts based on our historical write-off experience in conjunction with the length of time the receivables are
past due, customer creditworthiness, geographic risk and the current business environment. Actual future losses from uncollectible
accounts may differ from our estimates. The Company recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts as of December 31, 2020 and 2019
of $183,277 and $344,412, respectively.
Leases
We
determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. The current portion of lease obligations are included in accounts payable
and accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. Right-of-use (“ROU”) assets represent our right to use
an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the
lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments
over the lease term. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the
information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Our lease terms may include options
to extend or terminate the lease, which are included in the lease ROU asset when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise
that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. We have lease agreements
with lease components only, none with non-lease components, which are generally accounted for separately.
29
Business
Combinations
Our
company includes the results of operations of a business we acquire in our consolidated results as of the date of acquisition.
We allocate the fair value of the purchase consideration of our acquisition to the tangible assets, liabilities and intangible
assets acquired, based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair values
of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. The primary items that generate goodwill include the value
of the synergies between the acquired businesses and our company. Intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful
lives. The fair value of contingent consideration (earn out) associated with acquisitions is remeasured each reporting period
and adjusted accordingly. Acquisition and integration related costs are recognized separately from the business combination and
are expensed as incurred. For additional information regarding our acquisitions, refer to Note 5, Business Combinations.
Goodwill
and Identified Intangible Assets
Goodwill
Goodwill
is recorded as the difference between the aggregate consideration paid for an acquisition and the fair value of the net tangible
and identified intangible assets acquired under a business combination. Goodwill also includes acquired assembled workforce, which
does not qualify as an identifiable intangible asset. Management reviews impairment of goodwill annually in the fourth quarter,
or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that the goodwill might be impaired. We first assess qualitative factors
to determine whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative goodwill impairment test. If, after assessing the totality of
events or circumstances, we determine that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than
its carrying amount, then the quantitative goodwill impairment test is unnecessary.
Identified
intangible assets
Identified
finite-lived intangible assets consist of ticketing software and promoter relationships resulting from the February 1, 2019 business
combination. Our identified intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, ranging
from 5 to 7 years. Management makes judgments about the recoverability of finite-lived intangible assets whenever facts and circumstances
indicate that the useful life is shorter than originally estimated or that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable.
If such facts and circumstances exist, we assess recoverability by comparing the projected undiscounted net cash flows associated
with the related asset or group of assets over their remaining lives against their respective carrying amounts. Impairments, if
any, are based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of those assets. If the useful life is shorter than originally
estimated, we would accelerate the rate of amortization and amortize the remaining carrying value over the new shorter useful
life.
For
further discussion of goodwill and identified intangible assets, refer to Note 5, Business Combinations.
Property
and Equipment
Property
and equipment are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over
the related assets’ estimated useful lives. Equipment, furniture and fixtures are being amortized over a period of three
years.
Expenditures
that materially increase asset life are capitalized, while ordinary maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.
Revenue
Recognition
We
recognize revenue in accordance with Topic 606 to depict the transfer of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects
the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition
for arrangements within the scope of Topic 606 we perform the following steps:
●
Step
1: Identify the contract(s) with a customer
●
Step
2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract
30
●
Step
3: Determine the transaction price
●
Step
4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract
●
Step
5: Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation
We
follow the accounting revenue guidance under Topic 606 to determine whether contracts contain more than one performance
obligation. Performance obligations are the unit of accounting for revenue recognition and generally represent the distinct goods
or services that are promised to the customer.
Management
has identified the following performance obligations in our contracts with customers:
1.
Data
Normalization: which includes data preparation, product and vendor mapping, product categorization, data enrichment and other
data related services,
2.
Software-as-a-service
(“SaaS”): which is generated from clients’ access of and usage of our hosted software solutions on a subscription
basis for a specified contract term, which is usually annually. In SaaS arrangements, the client cannot take possession of
the software during the term of the contract and generally has the right to access and use the software and receive any software
upgrades published during the subscription period,
3.
Maintenance:
which includes ongoing data cleansing and normalization, content enrichment, and optimization, and
4.
Professional
Services: mainly related to specific customer projects to manage and/or analyze data and review for cost reduction opportunities.
A
contract will typically include Data Normalization, SaaS and Maintenance, which are distinct performance obligations and are accounted
for separately. The transaction price is allocated to each separate performance obligation on a relative stand-alone selling price
basis. Significant judgement is required to determine the stand-alone selling price for each distinct performance obligation and
is typically estimated based on observable transactions when these services are sold on a stand-alone basis. At contract inception,
an assessment of the goods and services promised in the contracts with customers is performed and a performance obligation is
identified for each distinct promise to transfer to the customer a good or service (or bundle of goods or services). To identify
the performance obligations, management considers all the goods or services promised in the contract regardless of whether
they are explicitly stated or are implied by customary business practices. Revenue is recognized when the performance obligation has
been met. We consider control to have transferred upon delivery because we have a present right to payment at that time, we have
transferred use of the good or service, and the customer is able to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all the remaining
benefits from, the good or service.
Our
SaaS and Maintenance contracts typically have termination for convenience without penalty clauses and accordingly, are generally
accounted for as month-to-month agreements. If it is determined that we have not satisfied a performance obligation, revenue recognition
will be deferred until the performance obligation is deemed to be satisfied.
Revenue
recognition for our performance obligations are as follows:
Data
Normalization and Professional Services
Our
Data Normalization and Professional Services are typically fixed fee. When these services are not combined with SaaS or Maintenance
revenues as a single unit of accounting, these revenues are recognized as the services are rendered and when contractual milestones
are achieved and accepted by the customer.
SaaS
and Maintenance
SaaS
and Maintenance revenues are recognized ratably over the contract terms beginning on the commencement date of each contract, which
is the date on which our service is made available to customers.
31
We
do have some contracts that have payment terms that differ from the timing of revenue recognition, which requires us to assess
whether the transaction price for those contracts include a significant financing component. We have elected the practical expedient
that permits an entity to not adjust for the effects of a significant financing component if it expects that at the contract inception,
the period between when the entity transfers a promised good or service to a customer and when the customer pays for that good
or service will be one year or less. We do not maintain contracts in which the period between when the entity transfers a promised
good or service to a customer and when the customer pays for that good or service exceeds the one-year threshold.
As
of December 31, 2020, we had $2,025,333 of remaining performance obligations recorded as deferred revenue. We expect to recognize
sales relating to these existing performance obligations of during 2021.
Costs
to Fulfill a Contract
Costs
to fulfill a contract typically include costs related to satisfying performance obligations as well as general and administrative
costs that are not explicitly chargeable to customer contracts. These expenses are recognized and expensed when incurred in accordance
with ASC 340-40.
Cost
of Revenue
Cost
of revenues primarily represent data center hosting costs, consulting services and maintenance of our large data array that were
incurred in delivering professional services and maintenance of our large data array during the periods presented.
Contract
Balances
Contract
assets arise when the revenue associated prior to our unconditional right to receive a payment under a contract with a customer
( i.e ., unbilled revenue) and are derecognized when either it becomes a receivable or the cash is received. There were no
contract assets as of December 31, 2020 and 2019.
Contract
liabilities arise when customers remit contractual cash payments in advance of our company satisfying our performance obligations
under the contract and are derecognized when the revenue associated with the contract is recognized when the performance obligation
is satisfied. Deferred revenue for contract liabilities were $2,025,333 and $1,056,637 as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Income
Taxes
Our
company converted to a corporation from a limited liability company during 2018.
We
use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”)
Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” Under this method, income tax expense is recognized for the amount of: (i) taxes payable
or refundable for the current year and (ii) deferred tax consequences of temporary differences resulting from matters that have
been recognized in an entity’s financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using
enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered
or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations
in the period that includes the enactment date.
Valuation
allowances are provided if, based upon the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred
tax assets will not be realized. During the year ended December 31, 2020, we evaluated available evidence and concluded that we
may not realize all the benefits of our deferred tax assets; therefore, a valuation allowance was established for our deferred
tax assets.
ASC
Topic 740-10-30 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements
and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a
tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC Topic 740-10-40 provides guidance on derecognition, classification,
interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. We have no material uncertain tax positions
for any of the reporting periods presented.
32
On
December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, (the “Tax Act”) was enacted. The Tax Act significantly revised
the U.S. corporate income tax regime by, including but not limited to, lowering the U.S. corporate income tax rate from 34% to
21% effective January 1, 2018, implementing a territorial tax system, imposing a one-time transition tax on previously untaxed
accumulated earnings and profits of foreign subsidiaries, and creating new taxes on foreign sourced earnings. During the years
ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, we completed the accounting for tax effects of the Tax Act under ASC 740. There were no impacts
to the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.
Stock-based
Compensation Expense
The Company accounts for stock-based
compensation expense in accordance with the authoritative guidance on share-based payments. Under the provisions of the guidance, stock-based
compensation expense is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the option or warrant using a Black-Scholes option pricing
model and is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period.
The authoritative guidance also requires that the Company measure
and recognize stock-based compensation expense upon modification of the term of stock award. The stock-based compensation expense for
such modification is accounted for as a repurchase of the original award and the issuance of a new award.
Calculating stock-based compensation
expense requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected term of the stock-based awards, stock price volatility,
and the pre-vesting option forfeiture rate. The Company estimates the expected life of options granted based on historical exercise patterns,
which are believed to be representative of future behavior. The Company estimates the volatility of the Company’s common stock on
the date of grant based on historical volatility. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based awards represent the
Company’s best estimates, but these estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment.
As a result, if factors change and the Company uses different assumptions, its stock-based compensation expense could be materially different
in the future. In addition, the Company is required to estimate the expected forfeiture rate and only recognize expense for those shares
expected to vest. The Company estimates the forfeiture rate based on historical experience of its stock-based awards that are granted,
exercised and cancelled. If the actual forfeiture rate is materially different from the estimate, stock-based compensation expense could
be significantly different from what was recorded in the current period. The Company also grants performance based restricted stock awards
to employees and consultants. These awards will vest if certain employee\consultant-specific or company-designated performance targets
are achieved. If minimum performance thresholds are achieved, each award will convert into a designated number of the Company’s
common stock. If minimum performance thresholds are not achieved, then no shares will be issued. Based upon the expected levels of achievement,
stock-based compensation is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. The expected levels of achievement
are reassessed over the requisite service periods and, to the extent that the expected levels of achievement change, stock-based compensation
is adjusted in the period of change and recorded on the statements of operations and the remaining unrecognized stock-based compensation
is recorded over the remaining requisite service period. Refer to Note 9, Stockholders’ Equity, for additional detail.
Loss
Per Share
We
compute earnings (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings per Share” which requires presentation of
both basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed
by dividing the loss available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator)
during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury
stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price
for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants.
Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, we had
790,847 and 1,650,511, respectively, common stock equivalents outstanding.
Indemnification
We
provide indemnification of varying scope to certain customers against claims of intellectual property infringement made by third
parties arising from the use of our software. In accordance with authoritative guidance for accounting for guarantees, we evaluate
estimated losses for such indemnification. We consider such factors as the degree of probability of an unfavorable outcome and
the ability to make a reasonable estimate of the amount of loss. To date, no such claims have been filed against our company and
no liability has been recorded in our financial statements.
33
As
permitted under Delaware law, we have agreements whereby we indemnify our officers and directors for certain events or occurrences
while the officer or director is, or was, serving at our company’s request in such capacity. The maximum potential amount
of future payments we could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is unlimited. In addition, we have
directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage that is intended to reduce our financial exposure and may enable
us to recover any payments above the applicable policy retention, should they occur.
In
connection with the Class Action claims and investigations described in Item 3. Legal Proceedings of this Annual Report on Form 10-K,
the Company is obligated to indemnify its officers and directors for costs incurred in defending against these claims and investigations.
Contingencies
From
time to time, we may be involved in legal and administrative proceedings and claims of various types. We record a liability in
our consolidated financial statements for these matters when a loss is known or considered probable and the amount can be reasonably
estimated. Management reviews these estimates in each accounting period as additional information becomes known and adjusts the
loss provision when appropriate. If the loss is not probable or cannot be reasonably estimated, a liability is not recorded in
the consolidated financial statements. If a loss is probable but the amount of loss cannot be reasonably estimated, we disclose
the loss contingency and an estimate of possible loss or range of loss (unless such an estimate cannot be made). We do not recognize
gain contingencies until they are realized. Legal costs incurred in connection with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred.
Refer to Note 8, Commitments and Contingencies, for further information.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The Company regularly
evaluates estimates and assumptions related to allowance for doubtful accounts, the estimated useful lives and recoverability
of long-lived assets, equity component of convertible debt, stock-based compensation, and deferred income tax asset valuation
allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors
that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the
carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources.
The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent
there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In
February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)
No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”). ASU 2016-02 requires a lessee to record a right-of-use asset
and a corresponding lease liability, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments, on the balance sheet for all
leases with terms longer than 12 months, as well as the disclosure of key information about leasing arrangements. Disclosures
are required to provide the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. A modified retrospective transition
approach is provided for lessees of leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period
presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. In July
2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842) Targeted Improvements (“ASU 2018-11”). ASU 2018-11
allows all entities adopting ASU 2016-02 to choose an additional (and optional) transition method of adoption, under which an
entity initially applies the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognizes a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening
balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. ASU 2018-11 also allows lessors to not separate non-lease components from
the associated lease component if certain conditions are met. We adopted the provisions of ASU 2016-02 and ASU 2018-11 in the
quarter beginning January 1, 2019. The adoption resulted in the recognition of additional disclosures and a right of use asset
of approximately $53,000 included as a component of prepaid expenses and other assets and a lease liability of approximately $53,000,
which is included as a component of accounts payable and accrued liabilities at December 31, 2019. The Company did not have any
right of use assets or lease liabilities at December 31, 2020.
34
In
October 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-17, Consolidation (Topic 810): Targeted Improvements to Related Party
Guidance for Variable Interest Entities (“ASU 2018-17”). ASU 2018-17 provides that indirect interests held
through related parties in common control arrangements should be considered on a proportional basis for determining whether fees
paid to decision makers and service providers are variable interests. ASU 2018-17 is effective for annual and interim periods
beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. We adopted this new standard in the first quarter of fiscal
2020, and the adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In
August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes
to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (“ASU 2018-13”), which modifies the disclosure
requirements on fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 is effective in the first quarter of fiscal 2020, and earlier adoption is
permitted. We adopted this new standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2020, and the adoption of the standard did not have a material
impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In
January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill
Impairment (“ASU 2017-04”), which eliminates step two from the goodwill impairment test. Under ASU 2017-04, an
entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair
value up to the amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. We adopted this new standard in the first quarter of fiscal
2020, and the adoption of the standard did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In
June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Stock-based Compensation: Improvements to Nonemployee Share-based Payment
Accounting, which amends the existing accounting standards for share-based payments to nonemployees. This ASU aligns much
of the guidance on measuring and classifying nonemployee awards with that of awards to employees. Under the new guidance, the
measurement of nonemployee equity awards is fixed on the grant date. The effective date for the standard is for interim periods
in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted, but no earlier than our adoption date of Topic
606. The new guidance is required to be applied retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized at the date of initial application.
We adopted this new standard in the first quarter of fiscal 2019, and the adoption of the standard did not have a material impact
on our consolidated financial statements.
In
June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13 (“ASU 2016-13”) “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses” (“ASC
326”): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” which requires the measurement and recognition of expected
credit losses for financial assets held at amortized cost. ASU 2016-13 replaces the existing incurred loss impairment model with
an expected loss model which requires the use of forward-looking information to calculate credit loss estimates. It also eliminates
the concept of other-than-temporary impairment and requires credit losses related to available-for-sale debt securities to be
recorded through an allowance for credit losses rather than as a reduction in the amortized cost basis of the securities. These
changes will result in earlier recognition of credit losses. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10 “Financial Instruments
– Credit Losses (Topic 326), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), and Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASC 2019-10”),
which defers the effective date of ASU 2016-13 to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within
those fiscal years, for public entities which meet the definition of a smaller reporting company. The Company will adopt ASU 2016-13
effective January 1, 2023. Management is currently evaluating the effect of the adoption of ASU 2016-13 on the consolidated financial
statements. The effect will largely depend on the composition and credit quality of our investment portfolio and the economic
conditions at the time of adoption.
Results
of Operations
The
COVID-19 Pandemic has disrupted our business and the business of our hospital customers.
Our
operations and business have experienced disruption due to the unprecedented conditions surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic which
spread throughout the United States and the world. The New York and New Jersey area, where the Company is headquartered, was at
one of the epicenters of the coronavirus outbreak in the United States. The Company has followed the recommendations of local
health authorities to minimize exposure risk for its team members since the outbreak.
In
addition, the Company’s customers (hospitals) have also experienced extraordinary disruptions to their businesses and supply
chains, while experiencing unprecedented demand for health care services related to COVID-19. As a result of these extraordinary
disruptions to our customers’ business, our customers have been focused on meeting the nation’s health care needs
in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, there is a significant risk that our customers will not be able to focus any
resources on expanding the utilization of our services, which could adversely impact our future growth prospects, at least until
the adverse effects of the pandemic subside. In addition, the financial impact of COVID-19 on our hospital customers could cause
the hospital to delay payments due to us for services, which could negatively impact our cash flows.
35
We
have attempted to mitigate these risks through the sale of personal protective equipment (“PPE”) and COVID-19 rapid
test kits to the health care industry, including many of our hospital customers.
The
sale of PPE and rapid test kits for COVID-19 represented a new business for the Company and is subject to the myriad risks associated
with any new venture. The Company encountered great difficulty in attempting to secure reliable sources of supply for both COVID-19
Rapid Test Kits and PPE. The Company currently has no contracted supply of Rapid Test Kits or PPE. During the year ended December
31, 2020, the Company has completed only minimal sales of COVID-19 rapid test kits and PPE. In addition, changes in market conditions
and FDA processes governing the sale of COVID-19 serology tests could have the effect of rendering the COVID-19 serology tests
held by the Company not saleable in the United States, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial
condition and results of operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to generate any significant revenue
from the sale of PPE products or rapid test kits, and as of the date of this report, the Company has not generated any material
revenue from the sale of PPE or rapid test kits.
The
Company is no longer actively seeking to procure and sell Test Kits or PPE. Instead, the Company is focused on selling its
current inventory of PPE and Test Kits. The Company may receive commissions for acting as an intermediary with respect to the
sale of PPE and/or Test Kits. However, there is no assurance the Company will realize any material revenue from these activities.

Revenues
Revenue
for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $5,213,118, compared to revenue for the year ended December 31, 2018, which was $5,548,119.
The decline in revenue is primarily related to decreases in one time revenue from the addition in 2019 of new multi-year customer
contracts and a decrease in revenue from data consulting projects which were completed during 2019. Given the disruption caused
to our hospital customers by the COVID-19 pandemic, we expect that our near-term revenues will likely be adversely impacted.
Expenses
General and administrative expenses decreased $5,320,677 to $7,742,850
for the year ended December 31, 2020, as compared to $13,063,527 in the same period of 2019. This decrease is largely due to decreases
of approximately $3.8 million in non-cash stock compensation, approximately $900,000 in salary expense, approximately $415,000 in travel
expense, approximately $775,000 in accounting and auditing expense, and approximately $930,000 in research and development costs, partially
offset by an increase of approximately $973,000 in legal fees largely related to the matters described in Item 3. Legal Proceedings in
2020.
We
had other expense of $1,357,339 in 2020 compared to other income of $584,991 in 2019. In 2020, other expenses were related to
losses on stock settlement of payables. In 2019, there was a gain on the fair value of convertible note receivable of $372,282
and a gain on the fair value of asset (warrant) in 2019 of $55,000. Interest expense decreased from $23,720 in 2019 to $0 in 2020.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Going
Concern
Management has concluded and
our auditors have indicated in their report on our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 that conditions
exist that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern since we may not have sufficient capital resources
from operations and existing financing arrangements to meet our operating expenses and working capital requirements. As of December 31,
2020, we had a working capital deficit of $2,414,635 and accumulated deficit of $20,196,823. During the year ended December 31, 2020,
we had a net loss of $7,402,350 and used $959,070 of cash in operations. We have historically incurred operating losses and may continue
to incur operating losses for the foreseeable future. We believe that these conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue
as a going concern. This may hinder our future ability to obtain financing or may force us to obtain financing on less favorable terms
than would otherwise be available. If we are unable to develop sufficient revenues and additional customers for our products and services,
we may not generate enough revenue to sustain our business, and we may fail, in which case our stockholders would suffer a total loss
of their investment. There can be no assurance that we will be able to continue as a going concern.
On
May 5, 2020, we obtained a $293,972 unsecured loan payable through the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”), which
was enacted as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES ACT”). The funds were received
from Bank of America through a loan agreement pursuant to the CARES Act. The CARES Act was established in order to enable small
businesses to pay employees during the economic slowdown caused by COVID-19 by providing forgivable loans to qualifying businesses
for up to 2.5 times their average monthly payroll costs. The amount borrowed under the CARES Act and used for payroll costs, rent,
mortgage interest, and utility costs during the 24 week period after the date of loan disbursement is eligible to be forgiven
provided that (a) we use the PPP Funds during the eight week period after receipt thereof, and (b) the PPP Funds are only used
to cover payroll costs (including benefits), rent, mortgage interest, and utility costs. While the full loan amount may be forgiven,
the amount of loan forgiveness will be reduced if, among other reasons, we do not maintain staffing or payroll levels or less
than 60% of the loan proceeds are used for payroll costs. Principal and interest payments on any unforgiven portion of the PPP
Funds (the “PPP Loan”) will be deferred to the date the SBA remits the borrower’s loan forgiveness amount to
the lender or, if the borrower does not apply for loan forgiveness, 10 months after the end of the borrower’s loan forgiveness
period for six months and will accrue interest at a fixed annual rate of 1.0% and carry a two year maturity date. There is no
prepayment penalty on the CARES Act Loan.
37
On
March 17, 2021, we received an additional $139,595 in financing from the US government’s Payroll Protection Program (“PPP”).
We entered into a loan agreement with Bank of America. This loan agreement was pursuant to the CARES Act. The CARES Act was established
in order to enable small businesses to pay employees during the economic slowdown caused by COVID-19 by providing forgivable loans
to qualifying businesses for up to 2.5 times their average monthly payroll costs. The amount borrowed under the CARES Act is eligible
to be forgiven provided that (a) the Company uses the PPP Funds during the six month period after receipt thereof, and (b) the
PPP Funds are only used to cover payroll costs (including benefits), rent, mortgage interest, and utility costs. The amount of
loan forgiveness will be reduced if, among other reasons, the Company does not maintain staffing or payroll levels. Principal
and interest payments on any unforgiven portion of the PPP Funds (the “PPP Loan”) will be deferred for six months
and will accrue interest at a fixed annual rate of 1.0% and carry a two year maturity date. There is no prepayment penalty on
the CARES Act Loan.
During
May 2020, we received $515,000 from the sale of 135,527 shares of common stock (at a price of $3.80 per share) and warrants to
purchase 169,409 shares of common stock, at an exercise price of $4.00 per share. Of the $515,000 investment, $125,000 is subject
to execution of definitive documents.
We are currently experiencing
a working capital deficiency. As of December 31, 2020, we had a working capital deficit of approximately $2.4 million, compared to a deficit
of approximately $1.8 million as of December 31, 2019. The approximate $645,000 increase in our working capital deficit was due primarily
to an approximate $969,000 increase in contract liabilities, due to the selling additional annual contracts to customers, an approximate
$375,000 increase in equity financing not yet converted, an approximate $188,000 increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses, an
approximate $112,000 decrease in cash, and an approximate $77,000 decrease in accounts receivable, partially offset by an approximate
$998,000 increase in inventory and an approximate $76,000 increase in prepaid expenses.
As of May 15, 2021, we had only limited cash on hand, and we are experiencing
negative cash flows from operations. Consequently, we need to raise additional capital as soon as possible to fund our operations and
the implementation of our business plan.
Based
on our current business plan, we anticipate that our operating activities will use approximately $400,000 in cash per month over
the next twelve months, or approximately $4.8 million. Currently we have limited cash on hand, and consequently, we are unable
to implement our current business plan. Accordingly, we have an immediate need for additional capital to fund our operating activities.
In order to remedy this liquidity deficiency, we have cut spending
and are actively seeking to raise additional funds through the sale of equity and debt securities, and ultimately, we will need to generate
substantial positive operating cash flows. Our internal sources of funds will consist of cash flows from operations, but not until we
begin to realize additional revenues from the sale of our products and services. As previously stated, our operations are generating negative
cash flows, and thus adversely affecting our liquidity. If we are able to secure sufficient funding in the second quarter of 2021 to fully
implement our business plan, we expect that our operations could begin to generate significant cash flows in the first quarter of 2022,
which should ameliorate our liquidity deficiency. If we are unable to raise additional funds in the near term, we will not be able to
fully implement our business plan, in which case there could be a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
In
the event we do not generate sufficient funds from revenues or financing through the issuance of common stock or from debt financing,
we will be unable to fully implement our business plan and pay our obligations as they become due, any of which circumstances
would have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition, and results of operations. The accompanying
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be required should the Company be unable to recover the value of
its assets or satisfy its liabilities (see Note 2 to the Financial Statements - Liquidity/Going Concern).
Based
on our current limited availability of funds, we expect to spend minimal amounts on software development and capital expenditures.
We expect to fund any software development expenditures through a combination of cash flows from operations and proceeds from
equity and/or debt financing. If we are unable to generate positive cash flows from operations, and/or raise additional funds
(either through debt or equity), we will be unable to fund our software development expenditures, in which case, there could be
an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

Our operations through December 31, 2020 have resulted in negative
cash flows from operations of $959,070. If we are able to raise additional capital during the second quarter of 2021 and generate additional
revenue through the acquisition of new customers, coupled with an anticipated reduction in legal and accounting expenses, we believe we
may begin to generate positive operating cash flows during the first quarter of 2022. However, there is no assurance we will be able to
increase our revenue sufficiently so as to generate positive operating cash flows within this time frame.
