Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements
For the six months ended June 30, 2020
and 2019
(Unaudited)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The interim financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X and in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) applicable to interim financial information. Accordingly,
the information presented in the interim financial statements does not include all information and disclosures necessary for a
fair presentation of FlexShopper, Inc.’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with GAAP
for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all adjustments consisting of
normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair statement of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for such
periods. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. These
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto contained in FlexShopper, Inc.’s
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.
The consolidated balance sheet as of December
31, 2019 contained herein has been derived from audited financial statements.
2. BUSINESS AND LIQUIDITY
FlexShopper, Inc. (“FlexShopper”
or the “Company”) is a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware in 2006. The Company owns 100%
of FlexShopper, LLC, a North Carolina limited liability company, which in turns owns 100% of FlexShopper 1, LLC and FlexShopper
2, LLC. The Company is a holding corporation with no operations except for those conducted by FlexShopper, LLC. FlexShopper, LLC
provides through e-commerce sites durable goods to consumers, including customers of third-party retailers and e-tailers, on
a lease-to-own (“LTO”) basis.
To date, funds derived from the sale of FlexShopper’s
common stock, warrants, Series 1 Convertible Preferred Stock and Series 2 Convertible Preferred Stock and the Company’s ability
to borrow both funds collateralized by the lease portfolio and from promissory notes have provided the liquidity and capital resources
necessary to fund its operations.
The Commitment Termination Date of the
Credit Agreement (see Note 7) is February 28, 2021 and, accordingly, the Company would then start to repay all borrowed amounts
under the facility through February 21, 2022. Additionally, $ 3,750,000 and $1,000,000 of Promissory Notes (see Note 6) are
due by June 30, 2021 and by April 30, 2021, respectively. The Company anticipates either renegotiating the terms of the Credit
Agreement and Promissory Notes with the existing lenders or entering into agreements to refinance the existing arrangements with
new lenders prior to the maturity of these agreements. While the Company has been successful in previously refinancing these
agreements and the holders of both the Credit Agreement and Promissory Notes are significant equity holders, it cannot provide
any assurance that such refinancing’s will be available on terms favorable to the Company or available at all. The
inability to refinance the Credit Agreement and/or Promissory Notes could have a material impact to the Company’s operations.
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation - The
accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries after elimination
of intercompany balances and transactions.
Estimates - The preparation of consolidated
financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition - Merchandise
is leased to customers pursuant to lease purchase agreements which provide for weekly lease terms with non-refundable lease payments.
Generally, the customer has the right to acquire title either through a 90-day same as cash option, an early purchase option, or
through payments of all required lease payments, generally 52 weeks, for ownership. On any current lease, customers have the option
to cancel the agreement in accordance with lease terms and return the merchandise. Accordingly, customer agreements are accounted
for as operating leases with lease revenues recognized in the month they are due on the accrual basis of accounting. Merchandise
sales revenue is recognized when the customer exercises the purchase option and pays the purchase price. Revenue for lease payments
received prior to their due date is deferred and recognized as revenue in the period to which the payments relate. Revenues from
leases and sales are reported net of sales taxes.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for
Doubtful Accounts - FlexShopper seeks to collect amounts owed under its leases from each customer on a weekly or biweekly
basis by charging their bank accounts or credit cards. Accounts receivable are principally comprised of lease payments currently
owed to FlexShopper which are past due, as FlexShopper has been unable to successfully collect in the manner described above.
The allowance for doubtful accounts is based upon revenues and historical experience of balances charged off as a percentage of
revenues. The accounts receivable balances consisted of the following as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

The allowance is a significant percentage
of the balance because FlexShopper does not charge off any customer account until it has exhausted all collection efforts with
respect to each account, including attempts to repossess items. In addition, while collections are pursued, the same delinquent
customers continue to accrue weekly charges until they are charged off. Accounts receivable balances charged off against the allowance
were $6,584,965 and $12,017,220 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 respectively and $4,346,498 and $9,376,402 for
the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively.

FlexShopper classifies bad debt expense
incurred as a reduction of lease revenue and fees within the consolidated statement of operations.
Lease Merchandise - Until all payment
obligations for ownership are satisfied under the lease agreement, the Company maintains ownership of the lease merchandise. Lease
merchandise consists primarily of residential furniture, consumer electronics, computers, appliances and household accessories
and is recorded at cost net of accumulated depreciation. The Company depreciates leased merchandise using the straight-line method
over the applicable agreement period for a consumer to acquire ownership, generally twelve months with no salvage value. Upon transfer
of ownership of merchandise to customers resulting from satisfaction of their lease obligations, the related cost and accumulated
depreciation are eliminated from lease merchandise. For lease merchandise returned or anticipated to be returned either voluntarily
or through repossession, the Company provides an impairment reserve for the undepreciated balance of the merchandise net of any
estimated salvage value with a corresponding charge to cost of lease revenue. The cost, accumulated depreciation and impairment
reserve related to such merchandise are written off upon determination that no salvage value is obtainable.
The net leased merchandise balances consisted
of the following as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

undepreciated cost of rental merchandise at the time of purchase.
Deferred Debt Issuance Costs - Debt
issuance costs incurred in conjunction with the Credit Agreement entered into on March 6, 2015, and subsequent amendments are offset
against the outstanding balance of the loan payable and are amortized using the straight-line method over the remaining term of
the related debt, which approximates the effective interest method. Amortization, which is included in interest expense, was $84,416
and $170,624 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and $50,431 and $105,271 for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2019, respectively.
Debt issuance costs of $60,000 incurred
in conjunction with the subordinated Promissory Notes entered into on January 25, 2019 and February 19, 2019 are offset against
the outstanding balance of the loan payable and are amortized using the straight-line method over the remaining term of the related
debt, which approximates the effective interest method. Amortization, which is included in interest expense, was $5,471 and $13,609
for three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and $8,138 and $13,563 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively.
Intangible Assets - Intangible assets
consist of a patent on the Company’s LTO payment method at check-out for third party e-commerce sites. Patents are stated
at cost less accumulated amortization. Patent costs are amortized by using the straight-line method over the legal life, or if
shorter, the useful life of the patent, which has been estimated to be 10 years.
Software Costs - Costs related
to developing or obtaining internal-use software incurred during the preliminary project and post-implementation stages of an
internal use software project are expensed as incurred and certain costs incurred in the project’s application development
stage are capitalized as property and equipment. The Company expenses costs related to the planning and operating stages of a
website. Costs associated with minor enhancements and maintenance for the website are included in expenses as incurred. Direct
costs incurred in the website’s development stage are capitalized as property and equipment. Capitalized software costs
amounted to $598,097 and $1,198,358 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and $513,645 and $1,060,689
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. Capitalized software amortization expense was $569,217 and $1,005,984
for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and $1,083,247 and $575,066 for the three and six months ended
June 30, 2019.
Operating Expenses - Operating expenses
include corporate overhead expenses such as salaries, stock-based compensation, insurance, occupancy, and other administrative
expenses.
Marketing Costs - Marketing costs,
primarily consisting of advertising, are charged to expense as incurred. Direct acquisition costs, primarily consisting of commissions
earned based on lease originations, are capitalized and amortized over the life of the lease.
Per Share Data - Per share data
is computed by use of the two-class method as a result of outstanding Series 1 Convertible Preferred Stock, which participates
in dividends with the common stock and accordingly has participation rights in undistributed earnings as if all such earnings had
been distributed during the period (see Note 8). Under such method income available to common shareholders is computed by deducting
both dividends declared or, if not declared, accumulated on Series 2 Convertible Preferred Stock from income from continuing operations
and from net income. Loss attributable to common shareholders is computed by increasing loss from continuing operations and net
loss by such dividends. Where the Company has undistributed net income available to common shareholders, basic earnings per common
share is computed based on the total of any dividends paid or declared per common share plus undistributed income per common share
determined by dividing net income available to common shareholders reduced by any dividends paid or declared on common and participating
Series 1 Convertible Preferred Stock by the total of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the weighted
average number of common shares issuable upon conversion of outstanding participating Series 1 Convertible Preferred Stock during
the period. Where the Company has a net loss, basic per share data (including income from continuing operations) is computed based
solely on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. As the participating Series 1 Convertible
Preferred Stock has no contractual obligation to share in the losses of the Company, common shares issuable upon conversion of
such preferred stock are not included in such computations.
Diluted earnings per share is based on
the more dilutive of the if-converted method (which assumes conversion of the participating Series 1 Convertible Preferred Stock
as of the beginning of the period) or the two-class method (which assumes that the participating Series 1 Convertible Preferred
Stock is not converted) plus the potential impact of dilutive non-participating Series 2 Convertible Preferred Stock, options and
warrants. The dilutive effect of stock options and warrants is computed using the treasury stock method, which assumes the repurchase
of common shares at the average market price during the period. Under the treasury stock method, options and warrants will have
a dilutive effect when the average price of common stock during the period exceeds the exercise price of options or warrants. When
there is a loss from continuing operations, potential common shares are not included in the computation of diluted loss per share,
since they have an anti-dilutive effect.
In computing diluted loss per share for
the six months ended June 30, 2020 and the six months ended June 30, 2019, no effect has been given to the issuance of common stock
upon conversion or exercise of the following securities as their effect is anti-dilutive. The following table reflects a change
in the conversion rates of the Series 1 Convertible Preferred Stock and Series 2 Convertible Preferred Stock due to anti-dilution
adjustments as a result of FlexShopper’s induced conversion of warrants.

Stock-Based Compensation - The fair
value of transactions in which the Company exchanges its equity instruments for employee and non-employee services (share-based
payment transactions) is recognized as an expense in the financial statements as services are performed.
Compensation expense is determined by reference
to the fair value of an award on the date of grant and is amortized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. The Company
has elected to use the Black-Scholes-Merton (BSM) pricing model to determine the fair value of all stock option awards.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
- The carrying value of certain financial instruments such as cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate their
fair value due to their short-term nature. The carrying value of loans payable under the Credit Agreement increased by unamortized
issuance costs approximates fair value. The carrying value of promissory notes to related parties approximates fair value
based upon their interest rates, which approximate current market interest rates.
Income Taxes - Deferred tax assets
and liabilities are determined based on the estimated future tax effects of net operating loss carryforwards and temporary differences
between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their respective financial reporting amounts measured at the current enacted
tax rates. The Company records a valuation allowance for its deferred tax assets when management concludes that it is not more
likely than not that such assets will be recognized.
The Company recognizes a tax benefit
from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by
taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the consolidated financial
statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being
realized upon ultimate settlement. As of June 30, 2020, and 2019, the Company had not recorded any unrecognized tax benefits.
Interest and penalties related to liabilities for uncertain tax positions will be charged to interest and operating expenses,
respectively.

January 2019, FlexShopper entered into a 108-month lease with an option for one additional five-year term for 21,622 square feet
of office space in Boca Raton, FL to accommodate FlexShopper’s business and its employees (the “January 2019 Lease”).
The monthly rent for this space is approximately $31,500 with annual three percent increases throughout the initial 108-month
lease term beginning on the anniversary of the commencement date.
The rental expense for the six months ended
June 30, 2020 and 2019 was approximately $353,000 and $126,000, respectively. At June 30, 2020, the future minimum annual lease

Lessor
Information - Refer to Note 3 to these condensed consolidated financial statements for further information about the Company’s
revenue generating activities as a lessor. All of the Company’s customer agreements are considered operating leases, and
the Company currently does not have any sales-type or direct financing leases.
Lessee
Information - As a result of ASC 842, Leases, the Company in its position as a lessee has recognized all of its operating
and financing leases on the balance sheet as right-to-use asset and lease liabilities. The Company has elected a package of
optional practical expedients. As a lessee, the Company leases retail, call center and corporate space under operating leases
expiring at various times through 2028. At January 1, 2019, the Company recognized $191,001 of operating lease assets and
$191,001 of operating lease liabilities as a result of adopting Topic 842.
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception.
The breakout of operating lease assets, and current and non-current operating lease liabilities at June 30, 2020, is shown in the
table below.

Operating
lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the present value of the future lease payments at the lease commencement date.
The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for its leases, as the implicit rate in the lease is not
readily determinable. The incremental borrowing rate is estimated to approximate the interest rate on a collateralized basis with
similar terms and payments, and in economic environments where the leased asset is located. Operating lease assets also include
any prepaid lease payments and lease incentives. The lease terms include periods under options to extend or terminate the lease
when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the option. The Company generally uses the base, non-cancelable,
lease term when determining the lease assets and liabilities. Under the short-term lease exception provided within ASC 842, the
Company does not record a lease liability or right-of-use asset for any leases that have a lease term of 12 months or less at
commencement.

Upon adoption of Topic 842, discount rates
for existing operating leases were established as of January 1, 2019. The discount rate for the new operating lease for space
in 901 Yamato Road, Boca Raton, FL was established as of the commencement date of the lease.
Operating lease expense is recognized on
a straight-line basis over the lease term within operating expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.
Finance lease expense is recognized over the lease term within interest expense and amortization in the Company’s consolidated
statements of operations. The Company’s total operating and finance lease expense all relate to lease costs and amounted
to $219,767 for the six months ended June 30, 2020.

PROMISSORY NOTES-RELATED PARTIES
January
2018 Notes - In January 2018, FlexShopper, LLC entered into letter agreements with Russ Heiser, FlexShopper’s Chief
Financial Officer, and NRNS Capital Holdings LLC (“NRNS”), the manager of which is the Chairman of the Company’s
Board of Directors, respectively (such letter agreements, together, the “Commitment Letters”), pursuant to which FlexShopper,
LLC issued a subordinated promissory note to each of Mr. Heiser and NRNS (together, the “Notes”). The Commitment Letters
provided that Mr. Heiser and NRNS would each make advances to FlexShopper, LLC under the applicable Note in aggregate amounts
up to $1,000,000 and $2,500,000, respectively. Payments of principal and accrued interest are due and payable by FlexShopper,
LLC upon 30 days’ prior written notice from the applicable noteholder and the Company can prepay principal and interest
at any time without penalty. However, repayment is not permitted without the consent of the Credit Agreement lender. The Notes
bear interest at a rate equal to five (5%) per annum in excess of the non-default rate of interest from time to time in effect
under the Credit Agreement entered into on March 6, 2015 computed on the basis of a 360-day year, which equaled 16.18% at June
30, 2020.
Upon
issuance of the Notes, FlexShopper, LLC drew $500,000 and a subsequent $500,000 on February 20, 2018 on the Note held by Mr. Heiser
and $2,500,000 on the Note held by NRNS. On August 29, 2018, FlexShopper, LLC issued amended and restated Notes to Mr. Heiser
and NRNS under which (1) the maturity date for such Notes was set at June 30, 2019 and (2) in connection with the completion of
an Equity Financing (as defined in the Notes), the holders of such Notes were granted the option to convert up to 50% of the outstanding
principal of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon into the securities issued in the Equity Financing at a conversion
price equal to the price paid to the Company by the underwriters for such securities, net of the underwriting discount. In connection
with the offering of units in September 2018, Mr. Heiser and NRNS elected to convert the convertible portion of the Notes, resulting
in the issuance by the Company of 602,974 shares of common stock and 301,487 warrants to Mr. Heiser and 1,507,395 shares of common
stock and 753,697 warrants to NRNS.
Prior to Mr. Heiser’s Note maturity
date, the Company paid down the entire principal and interest balance on June 28, 2019 in the amount of $507,339. NRNS amended
and restated the NRNS Note such that the maturity date of the revised Note was set at June 30, 2021. In addition, the Company drew
$500,000 on the Note held by NRNS on June 28, 2019. As of June 30, 2020, $1,772,119 of principal and accrued and unpaid interest
was outstanding on NRNS’s Note.
January 2019 Note - On January 25,
2019, FlexShopper, LLC entered into a subordinated debt financing letter agreement with 122 Partners, LLC, as lender, pursuant
to which FlexShopper, LLC issued a subordinated promissory note to 122 Partners, LLC (the “January Note”) in the principal
amount of $1,000,000. Mr. Heiser, Jr., FlexShopper’s Chief Financial Officer, is a member of 122 Partners, LLC. The
Company paid a commitment fee of 2% to the lender totaling $20,000. Payment of the principal amount and accrued interest under
the January 2019 Note was due and payable by FlexShopper, LLC on April 30, 2020 and FlexShopper, LLC can prepay principal and interest
at any time without penalty. Amounts outstanding under the January Note bear interest at a rate equal to five percent (5.00%) per
annum in excess of the non-default rate of interest from time to time in effect under the Credit Agreement, which equaled 16.18%
at June 30, 2020. Obligations under the January Note are subordinated to obligations under the Credit Agreement. The January Note
is subject to customary representations and warranties and events of default. If an event of default occurs and is continuing,
FlexShopper, LLC may be required to repay all amounts outstanding under the January Note. Obligations under the January Note are
secured by essentially all of FlexShopper, LLC’s assets, subject to rights of the lenders under the Credit Agreement. As
of June 30, 2020, $1,013,072 of principal and accrued and unpaid interest was outstanding on the January Note. On April 30, 2020,
pursuant to an amendment to the subordinated debt financing letter agreement, FlexShopper, LLC and 122 Partners, LLC agreed to
extend the maturity date of the January Note to April 30, 2021.
February 2019 Note - On February
19, 2019, FlexShopper, LLC entered into a letter agreement with NRNS, the manager of which is the Chairman of the Company’s
Board of Directors, pursuant to which FlexShopper, LLC issued a subordinated promissory note to NRNS (the “February Note”)
in the principal amount of $2,000,000. The Company paid a commitment fee of 2% to the lender totaling $40,000. Payment of principal
and accrued interest under the February Note is due and payable by FlexShopper, LLC on June 30, 2021 and FlexShopper, LLC can prepay
principal and interest at any time without penalty. Amounts outstanding under the February Note bear interest at a rate equal to
five percent (5.00%) per annum in excess of the non-default rate of interest from time to time in effect under the Credit Agreement,
which equaled 16.18% at June 30, 2020. Obligations under the February Note are subordinated to obligations under the Credit Agreement.
The February Note is subject to customary representations and warranties and events of default. If an event of default occurs and
is continuing, FlexShopper, LLC may be required to repay all amounts outstanding under the February Note. Obligations under the
February Note are secured by essentially all of FlexShopper, LLC’s assets, subject to rights of the lenders under the Credit
Agreement. As of June 30, 2020, $2,025,279 of principal and accrued and unpaid interest was outstanding on the February Note.

LOAN PAYABLE UNDER CREDIT AGREEMENT
On March 6, 2015, FlexShopper, through
a wholly-owned subsidiary (the “Borrower”), entered into a credit agreement (as amended from time-to-time and including
the Fee Letter (as defined therein), the “Credit Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as paying
agent, various lenders from time to time party thereto and WE 2014-1, LLC, an affiliate of Waterfall Asset Management, LLC, as
administrative agent and lender (the “Lender”). The Borrower is permitted to borrow funds under the Credit Agreement
based on FlexShopper’s cash on hand and the Amortized Order Value of its Eligible Leases (as such terms are defined in the
Credit Agreement) less certain deductions described in the Credit Agreement. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, subject to
the satisfaction of certain conditions, the Borrower may borrow up to $32,500,000 from the Lender until the Commitment Termination
Date and must repay all borrowed amounts one year thereafter, on the date that is 12 months following the Commitment Termination
Date (unless such amounts become due or payable on an earlier date pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement). On April 1,
2019, the Commitment Termination Date was extended to February 28, 2021. The Lender was granted a security interest in certain
leases as collateral under the Credit Agreement. The interest rate charged on amounts borrowed is LIBOR plus 11% per annum. At
June 30, 2020, amounts borrowed bear interest at 11.18%. As of June 30, 2020, FlexShopper had borrowed approximately 100% of the
available amount based on the Eligible Leases in the portfolio.
The
Credit Agreement provides that FlexShopper may not incur additional indebtedness (other than expressly permitted indebtedness)
without the permission of the Lender and also prohibits dividends on common stock. Additionally, the Credit Agreement includes
covenants requiring FlexShopper to maintain a minimum amount of Equity Book Value, maintain a minimum amount of Unrestricted Cash
(including a reserve upon which the Lender may draw to satisfy unpaid amounts under the Credit Agreement) and maintain a certain
ratio of Consolidated Total Debt to Equity Book Value (each capitalized term, as defined in the Credit Agreement). Upon a Permitted
Change of Control (as defined in the Credit Agreement), FlexShopper must refinance the debt under the Credit Agreement, subject
to the payment of an early termination fee. A summary of the covenant requirements, and FlexShopper’s actual results at
June 30, 2020, follows:

The
Credit Agreement includes customary events of default, including, among others, failures to make payment of principal and interest,
breaches or defaults under the terms of the Credit Agreement and related agreements entered into with the Lender, breaches of
representations, warranties or certifications made by or on behalf of FlexShopper in the Credit Agreement and related documents
(including certain financial and expense covenants), deficiencies in the borrowing base, certain judgments against FlexShopper
and bankruptcy events.
Availability under the Credit Agreement
is subject to a borrowing base which is redetermined from time to time and based on specific advance rates on eligible current
assets. Principal payable within twelve months of the balance sheet date based on the outstanding loan balance at such date is
reflected as a current liability in the accompanying balance sheets. Interest expense incurred under the Credit Agreement amounted
to $763,910 and $1,665,440 for the three and the six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and $735,619 and $1,689,529 for
the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. As of June 30, 2020, the outstanding balance under the Credit Agreement
was $25,733,626. Such amount is presented in the consolidated balance sheet net of unamortized issuance costs of $110,514. Interest
is payable monthly on the outstanding balance of the amounts borrowed.

CAPITAL STRUCTURE
The
Company’s capital structure consists of preferred and common stock as described below:
Preferred
Stock
The
Company is authorized to issue 500,000 shares of $0.001 par value preferred stock. Of this amount, 250,000 shares have been designated
as Series 1 Convertible Preferred Stock and 25,000 shares have been designated as Series 2 Convertible Preferred Stock. The Company’s
Board of Directors determines the rights and preferences of the Company’s preferred stock.
●
|
Series
1 Convertible Preferred Stock - Series 1 Convertible Preferred Stock ranks senior to common stock upon liquidation.
|
As
of June 30, 2020, each share of Series 1 Convertible Preferred Stock was convertible into 1.32230 shares of the Company’s
common stock, subject to certain anti-dilution rights. The holders of the Series 1 Convertible Preferred Stock have the option
to convert the shares to common stock at any time. Upon conversion, all accumulated and unpaid dividends, if any, will be paid
as additional shares of common stock. The holders of Series 1 Convertible Preferred Stock have the same dividend rights as holders
of common stock, as if the Series 1 Convertible Preferred Stock had been converted to common stock.
859 shares of Series 1 Convertible
Preferred Stock were converted into 1,136 shares of common stock during the three months ended June 30, 2020.
As of June 30, 2020,
there were 170,332 shares of Series 1 Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding, which were convertible into 225,230 shares of common
stock.
●
|
Series
2 Convertible Preferred Stock - The Company sold to B2 FIE V LLC (the “Investor”), an
entity affiliated with Pacific Investment Management Company LLC, 20,000 shares of Series 2 Convertible Preferred Stock
(“Series 2 Preferred Stock”) for gross proceeds of $20.0 million. The Company sold an additional 1,952 shares of
Series 2 Preferred Stock to a different investor for gross proceeds of $1.95 million at a subsequent closing.
|
The Series 2 Preferred Shares
were sold for $1,000 per share (the “Stated Value”) and accrue dividends on the Stated Value at an annual rate of
10% compounded annually. Cumulative accrued dividends as of June 30, 2020 totaled approximately $9,612,529. As of June 30, 2020,
each Series 2 Preferred Share was convertible into approximately 266 shares of common stock; however, the conversion rate
is subject to further increase pursuant to a weighted average anti-dilution provision. The holders of the Series 2 Preferred Stock
have the option to convert such shares into shares of common stock and have the right to vote with holders of common stock on
an as-converted basis. If the average closing price during any 45-day consecutive trading day period or change of control transaction
values the common stock at a price equal to or greater than $23.00 per share, then conversion shall be automatic. Upon a Liquidation
Event or Deemed Liquidation Event (each as defined), holders of Series 2 Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive out of the
assets of the Company prior to and in preference to the common stock and Series 1 Convertible Preferred Stock an amount equal
to the greater of (1) the Stated Value, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends thereon, and (2) the amount per share as would have
been payable had all shares of Series 2 Preferred Stock been converted to common stock immediately before the Liquidation Event
or Deemed Liquidation Event.
Common
Stock
The
Company is authorized to issue 40,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share. Each share of common stock entitles

The weighted average grant date fair value of options granted
during the six-month period ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019 was $1.52 and $0.52 per share respectively. The Company measured
the fair value of each option award on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton (BSM) pricing model with the following
assumptions:

The
expected dividend yield is based on the Company’s historical dividend yield. The expected volatility is based on the historical
volatility of the Company’s common stock. The expected life is based on the simplified expected term calculation permitted
by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which defines the expected life as the average of the contractual
term of the options and the weighted-average vesting period for all option tranches. The risk-free interest rate is based on the
annual yield on the grant date of a zero-coupon U.S. Treasury bond the maturity of which equals the option’s expected life.
The value of stock options is recognized as
compensation expense by the straight-line method over the vesting period. Compensation expense recorded for options in the consolidated
statements of operations was $452,033 and $623,848 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, and $303,243
and $328,772 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively. Unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested
options at June 30, 2020 amounted to approximately $807,000, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period
of 3.43 years.
10.
INCOME TAXES
As
of June 30, 2020, the Company had federal net operating loss carryforwards (“NOL”) of approximately $66,900,000 and
state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $6,000,000 available to offset future taxable income which expire from
2024 to 2037. NOL’s created after January 1, 2018 do not expire, but are limited.
Management
believes that the federal and state deferred tax asset as of June 30, 2020 does not satisfy the realization criteria and has recorded
a full valuation allowance to offset the deferred tax asset.
11.
EXCHANGE OFFER OF WARRANTS
On
February 4, 2020, the Company completed an exchange offer relating to outstanding public warrants, in which the holders of the
public warrants were offered 0.62 shares of common stock for each outstanding warrant tendered (the “Warrant Exchange Offer”).
In
total, 5,351,290 warrants were exchanged for 3,317,812 shares in accordance with the Warrant Exchange Offer.
On
February 19, 2020, the Company exchanged all remaining untendered public warrants for common stock at a rate of 0.56 shares per
public warrant in accordance with the terms of the Warrant Agreement (the “Mandatory Conversion of Warrants”). In
total 258,610 warrants were exchanged for 144,871 shares in this transaction.
As a result of this transaction, the Company
recognized a deemed dividend of $713,212 resulting from the excess of the fair value of the common stock over the intrinsic value
of the warrants.

CONTINGENCIES AND OTHER UNCERTAINTIES
The
extent of the impact and effects of the recent outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19) on the operation and financial performance
of our business will depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak, the recovery time of the
disrupted supply chains, or the uncertainty with respect to the accessibility of additional liquidity or capital markets, all
of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. If the demand for the Company’s leases are impacted by this outbreak
for an extended period, our results of operations may be materially adversely affected.
13.
COMMITMENTS
The
Company does not have any commitments other than real property leases (Note 4).

PROMISSORY NOTE- PAYCHECK PROTECTION PROGRAM
FlexShopper,
LLC (the “Borrower”) applied for and received a loan (the “Loan”) on May 4, 2020, from Customers Bank
(the “Lender”) in the principal amount of $1,914,100, pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP”)
under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”), which was enacted March 27, 2020,
and administered through the U.S. Small Business Administration.
The
Loan is evidenced by a promissory note (the “Note”), dated April 30, 2020, issued by the Borrower to the Lender. The
Note matures on April 30, 2022, and bears interest at the rate of 1.00% per annum, payable monthly commencing on November 30,
2020, following an initial deferral period as specified under the PPP. The Note may be prepaid by the Borrower at any time prior
to maturity with no prepayment penalty. Proceeds from the Loan will be available to the Borrower to fund designated expenses,
including certain payroll costs, group health care benefits and other permitted expenses, in accordance with the PPP. Under the
terms of the PPP, up to the entire sum of the principal amount and accrued interest may be forgiven to the extent the Loan proceeds
are used for qualifying expenses as described in the CARES Act and applicable implementing guidance issued by the U.S. Small Business
Administration under the PPP. The Company intends to cause the Borrower to use the entire Loan amount for designated qualifying
expenses and to apply for forgiveness of the Loan in accordance with the terms of the PPP following the covered period
which is defined as 8 or 24 weeks from the date of receipt of loan proceeds. The Company intends to apply for full forgiveness.
