Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), and include the Company’s accounts and those of its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassifications of Prior Year Presentation
Certain amounts in the financial statements of prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period financial statement presentation. This reclassification had no effect on our reported results of operations. A reclassification was made to the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2019 to identify related parties for debt issuances.
Going Concern
Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 205-40, Presentation of Financial Statements - Going Concern ("ASC 205-40") requires management to assess the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date the financial statements are issued. Under ASC 205-40, management has the responsibility to evaluate whether conditions and/or events raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to meet future financial obligations as they become due within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. As required by this standard, management’s evaluation shall initially not take into consideration the potential mitigating effects of management’s plans that have not been fully implemented as of the date the financial statements are issued.
Our assessment included the preparation of a detailed cash forecast that included all projected cash inflows and outflows. We continue to focus on growing our revenues. Accordingly, operating expenditures may exceed the revenue we expect to receive for the foreseeable future. Furthermore, we have a history of operating losses and negative operating cash flows and expect these trends to continue into the foreseeable future.
During the year ended December 31, 2020, we secured financings through the issuance of new convertible notes and the sale of its common stock through an at-the-market offering (both more fully described below). Furthermore, as more fully noted in Note 16 "Subsequent Events", we have raised additional cash proceeds from the issuance of shares of our common stock. Subsequent to December 31, 2020, we raised net cash proceeds totaling approximately $29,780, of which $5,058 was cash proceeds from our existing at-the-market offering in January 2021 and $24,722 was net cash proceeds from an underwritten offering in February 2021. The holder of our Convertible Notes (defined below) elected to require us to use forty percent (40%) of the net proceeds from both fund raising events to satisfy obligations to redeem the 2020 Convertible Notes.
We have a history of net losses and although we anticipate our future cash outflows to exceed cash inflows as we continue to invest in revenue growth, as a result of the subsequent cash financings described above, we believe we have sufficient cash on-hand to fund potential net cash outflows for one year following the filing date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Accordingly, we believe there does not exist any indication of substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for one year following the filing date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
As of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, while we believe we have adequate capital resources to complete our near-term operations, there is no guarantee that such capital resources will be sufficient until such time we reach profitability. We may access capital markets to fund strategic acquisitions or ongoing operations on terms we believe are favorable. The timing and amount of capital that may be raised is dependent on market conditions and the terms and conditions upon which investors would require to provide such capital. The Company may utilize debt or sell newly issued equity securities through public or private transactions, or through the use of another at-the-market facility. We currently have an effective "shelf" registration statement on Form S-3 we may utilize for financings for the issuance of our common stock, preferred stock, warrants or units.
There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional funding on satisfactory terms or at all. In addition, no assurance can be given that any such financing, if obtained, will be adequate to meet our capital needs and support our growth. If additional funding cannot be obtained on a timely basis and on satisfactory terms, our operations would be materially negatively impacted; however, we have been successful in accessing capital markets in the past, and we are confident in our ability to access capital markets again, if needed.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.
