Item 1A. Risk Factors
We face a number of significant risks and uncertainties in connection with our operations. Our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected by these risks. In addition to the risk factors set forth below and the other information set forth in this Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the SEC on April 17, 2023, which report is incorporated by reference herein, all of which could materially affect our business, financial condition and future results.
Changes in the value of the common stock or other securities that we own as a result of strategic investments may result in material fluctuations (increases or decreases) in our total asset value and net income on a quarterly basis.
On September 15, 2022, we acquired 891,124 shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 (“FOXO common stock”) of Foxo Technologies Inc. ("FOXO") in connection with the conversion of a 10% convertible note acquired on April 27, 2022 in an aggregate principal amount of $6.1 million for a purchase price of $5.5 million as a result of the closing of a business combination. FOXO common stock is traded in active markets, as the security is trading under “FOXO” on the NYSE American. FOXO common stock is accounted for as available-for-sale equity securities based on “Level 1” inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets, with unrealized holding gains and losses included in earnings. The fair value of the FOXO common stock was determined by the closing trading price of the security as of March 31, 2023. The Company recognized an unrealized gain on FOXO common stock of $0.03 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Consequently, the investment securities we own, are inherently volatile. Accordingly, the value of our total assets and as a consequence, the price of our common stock may decline or increase regardless of our operating performance, which may result in losses for investors purchasing shares of our common stock. Further, to the extent that we experience unrealized losses in connection with such securities from declines in securities values that management determines to be other than temporary, the book value of those securities will be adjusted to their estimated recovery value and we will recognize a charge to earnings in the quarter during which we make that determination. Additionally, the Company has no control over the price the Company will eventually receive as a result of the disposition of such assets and may be unable to sell the aforementioned securities at favorable prices quickly or when desired.
Our common stock may be delisted from The Nasdaq Capital Market which could negatively impact the price of our common stock, liquidity and our ability to access the capital markets.
Our common stock is currently listed on The Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “INPX.” The listing standards of The Nasdaq Capital Market provide that a company, in order to qualify for continued listing, must maintain a minimum stock price of $1.00 and satisfy standards relative to minimum stockholders’ equity, minimum market value of publicly held shares and various additional requirements. If The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, or Nasdaq, delists our securities from trading on its exchange for failure to meet the listing standards, we and our stockholders could face significant negative consequences including:
• limited availability of market quotations for our securities;
• a determination that the common stock is a “penny stock” which would require brokers trading in the common stock to adhere to more stringent rules, possibly resulting in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for shares of common stock;
• a limited amount of analyst coverage, if any; and
• a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.

Delisting from The Nasdaq Capital Market could also result in other negative consequences, including the potential loss of confidence by suppliers, customers and employees, the loss of institutional investor interest and fewer business development opportunities.
In several instances in the past, including as recently as on April 14, 2023, we received written notification from Nasdaq informing us that because the closing bid price of our common stock was below $1.00 for 30 consecutive trading days, our shares no longer complied with the minimum closing bid price requirement for continued listing on Nasdaq under the Nasdaq Listing Rules. Each time, we were given a period of 180 days from the date of the notification to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s listing requirements by having the closing bid price of our common stock listed on Nasdaq be at least $1.00 for at least 10 consecutive trading days.
In connection with the April 14, 2023 notice, in accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), we have been provided a period of 180 calendar days, or until October 11, 2023, in which to regain compliance. In order to regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement, the closing bid price of our common stock must be at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days during this 180-day period. In the event that we do not regain compliance within this 180-day period, we may be eligible to seek an additional compliance period of 180 calendar days if we meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for the Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the bid price requirement, and provide written notice to Nasdaq of our intent to cure the deficiency during this second compliance period, by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. However, if it appears to the Nasdaq staff that the Company will not be able to cure the deficiency, or if the Company is otherwise not eligible, Nasdaq will provide notice to the Company that our common stock will be subject to delisting. The letter does not result in the immediate delisting of our common stock from the Nasdaq Capital Market.
We intend to monitor the closing bid price of our common stock and consider its available options in the event that the closing bid price of our common stock remains below $1 per share. While we have regained compliance within the applicable time periods in the past, we cannot be certain that we will be able to regain compliance in connection with the April 14, 2023 notice, or that we will be able to comply with the other continued listing requirements.
If our shares of common stock lose their status on Nasdaq, we believe that they would likely be eligible to be quoted on the inter-dealer electronic quotation and trading system operated by OTC Markets Group Inc., commonly referred to as the Pink Open Market and we may also qualify to be traded on their OTCQB market (The Venture Market). These markets are generally not considered to be as efficient as, and not as broad as, Nasdaq. Selling our shares on these markets could be more difficult because smaller quantities of shares would likely be bought and sold, and transactions could be delayed. In addition, in the event our shares are delisted, broker-dealers have certain regulatory burdens imposed upon them, which may discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in our common stock or even holding our common stock, further limiting the liquidity of our common stock. These factors could result in lower prices and larger spreads in the bid and ask prices for our common stock.
