The Company sells a family of products under the brand name GO-Global, which is a software application publishing business and is the Company’s sole revenue source at this time. GO-Global is an application access solution for use and/or resale by independent software vendors, corporate enterprises, governmental and educational institutions, and others, who wish to take advantage of cross-platform remote access and Web-enabled access to their existing software applications, as well as those who are deploying secure, private cloud environments.

 

2. Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of hopTo Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated upon consolidation. The unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) applicable to interim financial information and the rules and regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, such unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all information and footnote disclosures required in annual financial statements.

 

The unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein reflect all adjustments, which include only normal, recurring adjustments, that are, in our opinion, necessary to state fairly the results for the periods presented. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 which was filed with the SEC on April 14, 2020 (“2019 10-K Report”). The interim results presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2020 or any future period.

 

Certain prior year information has been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported periods. Amounts could materially change in the future. These significant estimates include the valuation of stock-based compensation expense, the allowance for doubtful accounts, depreciation of long-lived assets, and accruals of liabilities.

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company markets and licenses its products indirectly through channel distributors, independent software vendors (“ISVs”), value-added resellers (“VARs”) (collectively, “resellers”) and directly to hosting service providers, corporate enterprises, governmental and educational institutions and others. Our product licenses are perpetual. We also separately sell intellectual property licenses, maintenance contracts, which are comprised of license updates and customer service access, as well as other products and services.

 

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” Revenues under ASC 606 are recognized when the promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

 

The following is a summary of how the Company recognizes revenue for its different products and services.

 

  Product Sales

 

All of our licenses are delivered to the customer electronically. The Company sends the license key to the customer to download the related software from Company portal. We recognize revenue upon delivery of these licenses. For stocking resellers who purchase licenses through inventory stocking orders with the intent to resell to an end-user, revenue is recognized when the resellers’ accounts have been credited, at their discretion, for the number of licenses purchased.

 

  Service Revenue

 

The Company has maintenance contracts with certain of its customers. Revenue from maintenance contracts is recognized ratably over the related contract period, which generally ranges from one to five years.

 

The Company’s product sales by geographic area are presented in Note 5.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid holdings with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. The Company had no cash equivalents as of March 31, 2020 (unaudited) or December 31, 2019.

 

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts that reflects our best estimate of potentially uncollectible trade receivables. The allowance is based on assessments of the collectability of specific customer accounts and the general aging and size of the accounts receivable. We regularly review the adequacy of our allowance for doubtful accounts by considering such factors as historical experience, credit worthiness, and current economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay. We specifically reserve for those accounts deemed uncollectible. We also establish, and adjust, a general allowance for doubtful accounts based on our review of the aging and size of our accounts receivable. As of March 31,2020 and December 31, 2019, the allowance for doubtful accounts totaled $12,900 and $7,300, respectively.

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

For the three-month ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, we currently consider the following to be our most significant customers and partners. For the purposes of this presentation, “Sales” refers to the dollar value of orders received from these customers and partners in the period indicated. These Sales values do not necessarily equal recognized revenue for these periods due to our revenue recognition policies which require deferral of revenue associated with prepaid software service fees.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company had 2 customers comprising 10.8% and 12.8%, respectively, of total sales. For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company had 3 customers comprising 24.9%, 14.6%, and 11.0%, respectively, of total sales. A loss of one of these customers could potentially have a significant negative impact on the Company’s financial statements.

 

As of March 31, 2020, the Company has 4 customers comprising 27.4%,14.3%, 12.9%, and 12.0%, respectively, of net accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2019, the Company has 1 customer comprising 17.9% of net accounts receivable.

 

Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share

 

In accordance with ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share,” the basic income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income (loss) per share reflect per share amounts that would have resulted if diluted potential common stock had been converted to common stock. Dilutive common share equivalents as of March 31, 2020, representing 481,335 of outstanding in-the-money warrants, were included in the computation of diluted net income per share using the Treasury Stock Method. During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had total common stock equivalents of 93,076 and 106,077, respectively, which were excluded from the computation of net income (loss) per share because they are anti-dilutive.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due to the nature of the accounts and their short-term maturities.

 

  9  
     

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

The FASB issues ASUs to amend the authoritative literature in ASC. There have been several ASUs to date, including those above, that amend the original text of ASC. Management believes that those issued to date either (i) provide supplemental guidance, (ii) are technical corrections, (iii) are not applicable to us or (iv) are not expected to have a significant impact our financial statements.

 

3. Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment consisted of the following.

 

    March 31,     December 31,  
    2020     2019

    $ -     $ -  

 

Depreciation expense amounted to $0 and $100 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 

4. Stockholders’ Equity

 

Stock-Based Compensation Plans

 

In November 2012, the Company’s 2012 Equity Incentive Plan (the “12 Plan”) was approved by the stockholders. Pursuant to the terms of the 12 Plan, stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and restricted stock units (sometimes referred to individually or collectively as “awards”) may be granted to officers and other employees, non-employee directors and independent consultants and advisors who render services to the Company. The Company is authorized to issue options to purchase up to 643,797 shares of common stock, stock appreciation rights, or restricted stock in accordance with the terms of the 12 Plan.

 

  10  
     

 

In the case of a restricted stock award, the entire number of shares subject to such award would be issued at the time of the grant and subject to vesting provisions based on time or other conditions specified by the Board or an authorized committee of the Board. For awards based on time, should the grantee’s service to the Company end before full vesting occurred, all unvested shares would be forfeited and returned to the Company. In the case of awards granted with vesting provisions based on specific performance conditions, if those conditions were not met, then all shares would be forfeited and returned to the Company. Until forfeited, all shares issued under a restricted stock award would be considered outstanding for dividend, voting and other purposes.

 

Under the 12 Plan, the exercise price of non-qualified stock options granted is to be no less than 100% of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date the option is granted. The exercise price of incentive stock options granted is to be no less than 100% of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date the option is granted provided, however, that if the recipient of the incentive stock option owns greater than 10% of the voting power of all shares of the Company’s capital stock then the exercise price will be no less than 110% of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date the option is granted. The purchase price of the restricted stock issued under the 12 Plan shall also not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date the restricted stock is granted.

 

All options granted under the 12 Plan are immediately exercisable by the optionee; however, there is a vesting period for the options. The options (and the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of such options) vest, ratably, over a 33-month period; however, no options (and the underlying shares of common stock) vest until after three months from the date of the option grant. The exercise price is immediately due upon exercise of the option. The maximum term of options issued under the 12 Plan is ten years. Shares issued upon exercise of options are subject to the Company’s repurchase, which right lapses as the shares vest. The 12 Plan will terminate no later than November 7, 2022. As of March 31, 2020, 424,594 shares of common stock remained available for issuance under the 12 Plan.

On January 31, 2020, we entered into the Backstop Agreement (the “Backstop Agreement”) with a consortium of accredited investors, including all of our directors and led by Novelty Capital Partners LP, pursuant to which such investors agreed to purchase in a private placement, at $0.30 per share, up to $2.41 million of shares of our common stock. The consummation of the investment pursuant to the Backstop Agreement was conditioned on the closing of our subscription rights offering to all of our stockholders (the “Rights Offering”). While upon the closing of the Rights Offering, we anticipated that the Backstop Agreement would close in April 2020, as of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q the Backstop Agreement has not closed and we now expect to consummate the Backstop Agreement transactions by the end of May 2020.

 

Subsequent to the expiration of the Rights Offering, we received gross proceeds of $480,191 in exchange for 1.6 million shares of common stock. Pursuant to the Backstop Agreement, we expect to receive proceeds of $2.12 million in exchange for the issuance of 7.0 million restricted shares of common stock.

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Forward-Looking Information

 

This report includes, in addition to historical information, “forward-looking statements”. All statements other than statements of historical fact we make in this report are forward-looking statements. In particular, the statements regarding industry prospects and our expectations regarding future results of operations or financial position (including those described in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations) are forward-looking statements. Such statements are based on management’s current expectations and are subject to a number of uncertainties and risks that could cause actual results to differ significantly from those described in the forward-looking statements. Factors that may cause such a difference include the following:

 

  the success of products depends on a number of factors including market acceptance and our ability to manage the risks associated with product introduction;
  local, regional, national and international economic conditions and events, and the impact they may have on us and our customers;
  our revenue could be adversely impacted if any of our significant customers reduces its order levels or fails to order during a reporting period; customer demand is based on many factors out of our control;
  as a result of the new revenue recognition standards, if any significant end user customer or reseller substantially changes its order level, or fails to order during the reporting period, whether the order is placed directly with us or through one of our non-stocking resellers, our software licenses revenue could be materially impacted; and
  other factors, including, but not limited to, those set forth under Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 14, 2020, and in other documents we have filed with the SEC.

 

Statements included in this report are based upon information known to us as of the date that this report is filed with the SEC, and we assume no obligation to update or alter our forward-looking statements made in this report, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as otherwise required by applicable federal securities laws.

 

Introduction

 

We are developers of application publishing software which includes application virtualization software and cloud computing software for multiple computer operating systems including Windows, UNIX and several Linux-based variants. Our application publishing software solutions are sold under the brand name GO-Global, which is our sole revenue source. GO-Global is an application access solution for use and/or resale by independent software vendors (“ISVs”), corporate enterprises, governmental and educational institutions, and others who wish to take advantage of cross-platform remote access and Web-enabled access to their existing software applications, as well as those who are deploying secure, private cloud environments.

 

Beginning in 2012, we developed and marketed several products in the field of software productivity for mobile devices such as tablets and smartphones under the hopTo brand. We ceased all our sales, marketing and development for the hopTo products in 2016.

 

We have made investments in intellectual property (“IP”) and filed many patents designed to protect the technologies embedded in the hopTo products. We are currently marketing for sale 49 patents and related source code developed from our hopTo development efforts.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

We believe that several accounting policies are important to understanding our historical and future performance. We refer to these policies as “critical” because these specific areas require us to make judgments and estimates about matters that are uncertain at the time we make the estimates. Actual results may differ from these estimates. For a summary of our critical accounting policies, please refer to our 2019 10-K Report and Note 2 to our unaudited consolidated financial Statements included under Item 1 – Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q.

Revenues

 

Our software revenue is entirely related to our GO-Global product line, and historically has been primarily derived from product licensing fees and service fees from maintenance contracts. The majority of this revenue has been earned, and continues to be earned, from a limited number of significant customers, most of whom are resellers. Many of our resellers purchase software licenses that they hold in inventory until they are resold to the ultimate end user (a “stocking reseller”).

 

When a software license is sold directly to an end user by us, or by one of our resellers who does not stock licenses into inventory, revenue is recognized immediately upon shipment, assuming all other criteria for revenue recognition are met. Consequently, if any significant end user customer substantially changes its order level, or fails to order during the reporting period, whether the order is placed directly with us or through one of our non-stocking resellers, our software licenses revenue could be materially impacted.

 

Almost all stocking resellers maintain inventories of our Windows products; few stocking resellers maintain inventories of our UNIX products.

 

Software Licenses

 

Windows software licenses revenue decreased by $97,600 or 29.1% to $237,900 during the three months ended March 31, 2020, from $335,500 for the same period in 2019. The decrease was entirely due to a certain partner that purchased a large order of Windows licenses from the Company during the three months ended March 31, 2019 that did not recur during the three months ended March 31, 2020. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in purchase activity related to demand for remote access software due to the coronavirus pandemic.

 

  14  
     

 

Software licenses revenue from our UNIX/Linux products increased by $24,800 or 182.4% to $38,400 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 from $13,600 for the same periods of 2019. The increase was primarily due to higher revenue from higher stocking and standard order licenses.

 

We expect aggregate GO-Global total software license revenue in 2020 to be in-line with 2019 levels as we are observing a mix of both higher and lower aggregate revenue from our various customers.

 

Software Service Fees

 

Service fees attributable to our Windows product service decreased by $116,100 or 19.4% to $481,600 during three months ended March 31, 2020, from $597,700 for the same period in 2019. The decrease was primarily due to timing of revenue recognition for maintenance support fees along with a decrease in maintenance support for a large OEM partner and the expiration of a long-term maintenance contract for a European customer. These were partially offset by an increase in maintenance support fees due to an increase in Windows product sales from other customers throughout the prior year.

 

Service fees revenue attributable to our UNIX products decreased by $19,000 or 22.6% to $65,100 during the three months ended March 31, 2020, from $84,100 for the same period in 2019. The decrease was primarily the result of the lower level of UNIX product sales throughout the prior year and an expiration of certain long-term maintenance contracts.

 

We expect that software service fees for 2020 will approximate to those for 2019.

 

Other

 

Other revenue consists of private labeling fees and professional services. Other revenue decreased by $1,400 or 6.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019.

 

Cost of Revenues

 

Cost of revenue is comprised primarily of software service costs, which represent the costs of customer service. Also included in cost of revenue are software product costs, which are primarily comprised of the amortization of capitalized software development costs and costs associated with licenses to third party software included in our product offerings, and the required import tax withholdings from Brazil resellers. We incur no significant shipping or packaging costs as virtually all of our deliveries are made via electronic means over the Internet.

 

Cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2020 increased by $8,900, or 30.5%, to $38,100 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 from $29,200 for the same period in 2019. Cost of revenue represented 4.5% and 2.8% of total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The primarily increase was due to increase import tax withholdings associated with higher revenue from Brazil resellers for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020.

 

We expect 2020 cost of revenue to be slightly higher than 2019 for the above reason.

 

Selling and Marketing Expenses

 

Selling and marketing expenses primarily consisted of employee, outside services and travel and entertainment expenses.

 

Selling and marketing expenses decreased by $12,600, or 10.8%, to $104,400 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 from $117,000 for the same period in 2019. Selling and marketing expenses represented approximately 12.4% and 11.1% of total revenue for the three months ended March 2020 and 2019, respectively. The decrease in selling and marketing expenses was due to a decrease in consulting services and employee benefit costs.

 

We expect to maintain our sales and marketing efforts in 2020 for anticipated GO-Global releases with select targeted modest investments in promotional activity; accordingly, for this reason, we expect 2020 sales and marketing expenses to be slightly higher than 2019 levels.

 

  15  
     

 

General and Administrative Expenses

 

General and administrative expenses primarily consist of employee costs, legal, accounting, other professional services (including those related to our patents), rent, travel and entertainment and insurance. Certain costs associated with being a publicly held corporation are also included in general and administrative expenses, as well as bad debt expense.

 

General and administrative expenses decreased by $66,000, or 22.4%, to $229,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 from $295,000 for the same period in 2019. General and administrative expenses represented approximately 27.1% and 28.0% of total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 

The decrease in general and administrative expense was due to lower accounting fees and employee benefit costs.

 

In 2020, we anticipate a reduction in accounting fees and employee benefit costs compared to 2019 levels due to changes in service providers and improved cost controls by management. We therefore expect that our 2020 general and administrative costs will be slightly lower than those for 2019.

 

Research and Development Expenses

 

Research and development expenses consist primarily of employee costs, payments to contract programmers, software subscriptions, travel and entertainment for our engineers, and all rent for our leased engineering facilities.

 

Research and development expenses decreased by $10,500, or 12.8% to $364,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 from $374,500 for the same period in 2019. This represented approximately 43.1% and 35.5% of total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 

The decrease in research and development expense was primarily due to a decrease in consulting fees associated with completing the new releases of our GO-Global products.

 

In 2020, we expect to continue our investments in research and development resources associated with our GO-Global products based on market feedback. We therefore expect 2020 research and development expenses to be slightly higher than 2019 levels.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of March 31, 2020, we had cash of $1,467,000 and a working capital position of $251,500 as compared to cash of $1,541,900 and a working capital position of $101,800 at December 31, 2019. The decrease in cash as of March 31, 2020 was primarily the result of cash used in operations during the period. We expect our results from operations and capital resources will be sufficient to fund our operations for at least the next 12 months from the date of the filing of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

 

The following is a summary of our cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

 

    For the Three Months Ended  
    March 31,     March 31,  
    2020     2020  
Cash flows provided by operating activities   $ (74,900 )   $ 110,200  
Cash flows provided by investing activities   $ -     $ -  
Cash flows provided by financing activities   $ -     $ -  

  

Net cash flows used by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2020 amounted to $74,900, compared to cash flows provided by operating activities of $110,200 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The decrease in cash flows provided by operating activities is primarily the result of lower net income and an increase in accounts receivable and prepaid expenses compared to the prior year period.

 

  16  
     

 

We had no cash flow activity relating to investing or financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2020 or 2019.

 

Subsequent to March 31, 2020, we received gross proceeds of $480,191 from the Rights Offering and expect to receive $2.12 million from the closing of the investment pursuant to the Backstop Agreement. We intend to use the proceeds from the Rights Offering and the Backstop Agreement for general corporate purposes, which may include acquisitions (although we do not currently have any plans with respect to any acquisition).

 

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

Not applicable.

 

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2020.

 

There has not been any change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended March 31, 2020 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings

 

Not applicable

 

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors

 

There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those set forth under Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 14, 2020.

 

The coronavirus pandemic could adversely affect our results of operations.

 

The recent coronavirus pandemic throughout the United States and the world has resulted in the United States and other countries halting or sharply curtailing the movement of people, goods and services. All of this has caused extended shutdowns of businesses and the prolonged economic impact remains uncertain. At this point, we believe the conditions will have a material adverse effect on our business but given the rapidly changing developments we cannot accurately predict what effects these conditions will have on our business, which will depend on, among other factors, the ultimate geographic spread of the virus, the duration of the outbreak and travel restrictions and business closures imposed by the United States and various other governments.

 

ITEM 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

 

On January 31, 2020, we entered into the Backstop Agreement with a consortium of accredited investors, including all of our directors and led by Novelty Capital Partners LP, pursuant to which such investors agreed to purchase in a private placement, at $0.30 per share, up to $2.41 million of shares of our common stock. The consummation of the investment pursuant to the Backstop Agreement was conditioned on the closing of the Rights Offering. The Rights Offering expired on March 31, 2020. While upon the closing of the Rights Offering, we anticipated that the Backstop Agreement would close in April 2020, as of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q the Backstop Agreement has not closed and we now expect to consummate the Backstop Agreement transactions by the end of May 2020.

 

At the closing of the Rights Offering, we received gross proceeds of $480,191 in exchange for 1.6 million shares of common stock. Pursuant to the Backstop Agreement, we expect to receive proceeds of $2.12 million in exchange for the issuance of 7.0 million restricted shares of common stock. We intend to use the proceeds from the Rights Offering and the Backstop Agreement for general corporate purposes, which may include acquisitions (although we do not currently have any plans with respect to any acquisition). The shares were issued to the Backstop Agreement investors pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
