SHARPLINK GAMING LTD.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 AND 2022

 

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by SharpLink Gaming Ltd. (the “Company,” “SharpLink,” formerly Mer Telemanagement Services or “MTS”, “we,” or “our”), pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of the Company, the foregoing statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, its results of operations and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022, has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts therein. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results in future periods may differ from the estimates.

 

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted pursuant to rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, the condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statement presentation. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2022, which are included the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 5, 2023 and the Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on July 14, 2023.

 

Nature of Business

 

The Company is an Israeli-based corporation. SharpLink is a leading online technology company that connects sports fans, leagues and sports websites to relevant and timely sports betting and iGaming content. SharpLink uses proprietary, intelligent, online conversion technology and direct-to-player (“D2P”) performance marketing strategies to convert sports fans into sports bettors and online casino game players for licensed, online sportsbook and casino operators. Further, SharpLink, through its SportsHub Games Network Inc. (“SportsHub”) reporting unit, owns and operates an online gaming business that primarily facilitates daily and seasonal peer-to-peer fantasy contests for its end users. The Company also operates a website that provides a variety of services to private fantasy league commissioners, including secure online payment options, transparent tracking and reporting of transactions, payment reminders, in-season security of league funds, and facilitation of prize payouts. SportsHub was acquired by the Company on December 22, 2022.

 

On July 26, 2021, SharpLink, Inc. completed its merger with Mer Telemanagement Solutions Ltd. (the “MTS Merger”), which changed its name to SharpLink Gaming Ltd. and commenced trading on NASDAQ under the ticker symbol “SBET.” As a result of the MTS Merger, SharpLink, Inc. shareholders owned 86% of the Company, on a fully diluted and as-converted basis, which represented a majority of the voting shares. Additionally, immediately following the closing of the MTS Merger, legacy MTS directors and officers agreed to resign, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 26, 2021 (“MTS Merger Agreement”). SharpLink, Inc.’s executives became officers of the Company and new members were appointed to the board of directors. The MTS Merger represented a reverse acquisition in which SharpLink, Inc. was the accounting acquirer and legacy MTS was the accounting acquiree. The Company applied the acquisition method of accounting to the identifiable assets and liabilities of legacy MTS, which were measured at estimated fair value as of the date of the business combination.

 

Reverse Share Split

 

On April 23, 2023, the Company effected a one-for-ten (1:10) reverse share split of all the Company’s share capital and adopted amendments to its Memorandum of Association and Second Amended and Restated Articles of Association (“M&AA”) whereby the Company (i) decreased the number of issued and outstanding ordinary shares, nominal value NIS 0.60  per share, from 26,881,244 to 2,688,541; (ii) reduced the total number of the Company’s authorized shares under its M&AA from 92,900,000 ordinary shares, nominal value NIS 0.06 per share, to 9,290,000 ordinary shares, nominal value NIS 0.60 per share; and (ii) decreased by a ratio of one-for-ten (1:10) the number of retrospectively issued and outstanding ordinary shares. Proportional adjustments for the reverse stock split were made to the Company’s outstanding stock options, warrants and equity incentive plans. All share and per-share data and amounts have been retrospectively adjusted as of the earliest period presented in the financial statements to reflect the reverse stock split.

Reclassifications

 

Certain reclassifications were made to the balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 to conform to the September 30, 2023 method of presentation. Certain reclassifications were made to the consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to conform to the September 30, 2023 method of presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on reported total current assets, total assets, total current liabilities, total liabilities, total stockholder’s equity, or revenues.

 

Note 2 - Going Concern

 

In the pursuit of SharpLink’s long-term growth strategy and the development of its fan activation and conversion software and related businesses, the Company has sustained continued operating losses. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, the Company had a net loss from continuing operations of $8,672,446 and $12,542,782 respectively; and cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations of $6,266,211 and cash used for operating activities from continuing operations ($6,376,631), respectively. To fund anticipated future planned losses from operations, on February 13, 2023, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with Alpha Capital Anstalt (“Alpha”), a current shareholder of the Company, on February 14, 2023, pursuant to which the Company issued to Alpha an 8% Interest Rate, 10% Original Issue Discount, Senior Convertible Debenture (the “Debenture”) in the aggregate principal amount of $4,400,000 for a purchase price of $4,000,000. In addition, on February 13, 2023, SharpLink, Inc., a Minnesota corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a Revolving Credit Agreement with Platinum Bank, a Minnesota banking corporation and executed a revolving promissory note of $7,000,000.

 

The Company is continually evaluating strategies to obtain the required additional funding for future operations. These strategies may include, but are not limited to, equity financing, issuing, or restructuring debt, entering into other financing arrangements, and restructuring operations to increase revenues and decrease expenses. The Company may be unable to access further equity or debt financing when needed or obtain additional liquidity under acceptable terms, if at all. As such, these factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period.

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the carrying amounts and classification of assets, liabilities, and reported expenses that may be necessary if the Company were unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Note 3 - New Accounting Pronouncements

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging— Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for convertible debt and convertible preferred stock by removing the requirements to separately present certain conversion features in equity. In addition, the amendments in the ASU also simplify the guidance in ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging: Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity, by removing certain criteria that must be satisfied in order to classify a contract as equity, which is expected to decrease the number of freestanding instruments and embedded derivatives accounted for as assets or liabilities. Finally, the amendments revise the guidance on calculating earnings per share, requiring use of the if-converted method for all convertible instruments and rescinding an entity’s ability to rebut the presumption of share settlement for instruments that may be settled in cash or other assets. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2023 and was applied to the Company’s accounting for its convertible debenture and warrants (see Note 8).

 

In June 2016 and subsequently amended in March 2022, the FASB issued ASC 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurements of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASC 326”), which replaces the existing incurred loss model with a current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model that requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The Company would be required to use a forward-looking CECL model for accounts receivables, guarantees and other financial instruments. The Company adopted ASC 326 on January 1, 2023 and ASC 326 did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements as the Company has not had any historical credit losses.

Note 5 - Acquisitions

 

SportsHub Games Network, Inc. (“SportsHub”)

 

Description of the Transaction

 

On December 22, 2022, SharpLink, through its wholly owned subsidiary, SHGN Acquisition Corp (“Acquirer” or the “Merger Subsidiary”) acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of SportsHub (the “SportsHub Acquisition”), via an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of September 6, 2022 (the “SportsHub Merger Agreement”). In accordance with the terms of the SportsHub Merger Agreement between the Acquirer, SportsHub and an individual acting as the SportsHub stockholders’ representative (the “Stockholder Representative”):

 

  SharpLink issued an aggregate of 431,926 ordinary shares to the equity holders of SportsHub, on a fully diluted basis, including 377,985 ordinary shares actually issued on December 22, 2022 and an additional aggregate of 53,941 shares being held in escrow as well as shares held in escrow for indemnifiable losses and for the reimbursement of expenses incurred by the Stockholder Representative in performing his duties pursuant to the SportsHub Merger Agreement. An additional aggregate of 40,585 ordinary shares were reserved for future issuance, including 23,714 ordinary shares reserved for SportsHub shareholders who had yet to provide the applicable documentation required in connection with the SportsHub Acquisition and were issued in June 2023 when the documentation was available. 13,975 ordinary shares underlying the options and 2,896 ordinary shares underlying the warrants remain unissued until the options and/or warrants are exercised.
     
  SportsHub merged with and into the Merger Subsidiary, with the Merger Subsidiary remaining as the surviving corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of SharpLink.
     
  SportsHub, which owned 889,380 ordinary shares of SharpLink prior to the SportsHub Acqusition, distributed those shares to its stockholders immediately prior to the consummation of the SportsHub Acqusition. These shares were not part of the purchase consideration.
     
  SharpLink assumed $5,387,850 of SportsHub’s debt as purchase consideration.

 

Identification of Accounting Acquirer

 

The transaction was accomplished through a direct acquisition, whereby SHGN Acquisition Corp effectively acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of SportsHub, as a result of which SHGN Acquisition Corp obtained control over SportsHub. Therefore, SHGN Acquisition Corp has been determined to be the acquirer in the transaction, and SportsHub the acquiree.

 

Determining the Acquisition Date

 

The Acquirer obtained control of SportsHub following the exchange of consideration on December 22, 2022. Thus, the closing date of December 22, 2022 was the acquisition date.

 

Purchase Price

 

The purchase price is based on SharpLink’s closing share price of $2.90 on December 22, 2022 and 472,513 of ordinary shares as well as the fair value of Seller’s term loan of $1,267,199 and line of credit of $4,120,651. The following table represents the purchase consideration paid in the SportsHub Acquisition:

  

Description  Amount 
Fair Value of Equity Consideration  $1,370,287 
Fair Value of Seller Platinum Line of Credit and Loan   5,387,850 
Total Purchase Price  $6,758,137 

 

Purchase Price Allocation

 

The SportsHub Acquisition assets and liabilities were measured at fair values as of December 22, 2022, primarily based on the valuation determined by an independent valuation, which were based on income-based method and relief from royalty method. Estimates of fair value represent management’s best estimate of assumptions about future events and uncertainties, including significant judgments related to future cash flows, discount rates, competitive trends, margin and revenue growth assumptions, including royalty rates and customer attrition rates and others. Inputs used were generally obtained from historical data supplemented by current and anticipated market conditions and growth rates expected as of the acquisition date.

 

10
 

 

The fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of December 22, 2022 were as follows:

 

      
Assets:     
Cash  $38,255,266 
Restricted cash   10,604,004 
Accounts receivable   186,712 
Prepaid expenses and other current assets   1,916,932 
Equipment   11,953 
Other long-term assets   95,793 
Intangible assets   2,390,000 
Total Assets  $53,460,660 
      
Liabilities:     
Accrued expenses  $284,345 
Deferred tax liabilities   48,775 
Deferred revenue   3,574,285 
Other current liabilities   47,657,117 
Other long-term liabilities   106,705 
Total liabilities  $51,671,227 
      
Net assets acquired, excluding goodwill  $1,789,433 
      
Goodwill   4,968,703 
      
Purchase consideration for accounting acquiree  $6,758,137 

 

The fair value, as determined by assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets, and weighted average useful life of the identifiable intangible assets are as follows:

 

       Weighted
Average
 
   Fair Value   Useful Life
(Years)
 
Customer relationships  $1,550,000    5 
Trade names   640,000    6 
Acquired technology   200,000        5 
   $2,390,000      

 

The excess of consideration for the acquisition over the fair value of net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill and derived from the market price of the shares at the time of the SportsHub Acquisition. The goodwill created in the acquisition is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

 

As of September 30, 2023, the calculation and allocation of the purchase price to tangible and intangible assets and liabilities are final as well as the recognition and disclosure over warrant and stock option equity awards, see Notes 11 and 12.

 

Transaction Costs

 

SharpLink’s transaction costs incurred in connection with the SportsHub Acquisition were $83,866 for the year ended December 31, 2022. These costs were primarily comprised of professional fees, recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statement of operations. The transaction costs are not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

The pro forma financial information includes, where applicable, adjustments for: (i) a reduction in amortization expense of $574,343 would have been recognized related to the acquired intangible assets in 2022 and (ii) transaction costs and other one-time non-recurring costs which increased expenses by $83,866 in 2022.

Note 7 - Debt

 

On January 31, 2022, FourCubed Acquisition Company, LLC (“FCAC”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a $3,250,000 term loan agreement with Platinum Bank. The agreement bears annual interest at a rate of 4% and requires a fixed monthly payment of $59,854, consisting of principal and interest, through the term loan’s maturity, which is January 31, 2027.

Note 8 - Convertible Debenture and Warrant

 

Convertible Debenture, at Fair Value

 

The Company accounts for convertible debentures using an amortized cost model. The discount for warrants, the Original Issuance Discount (“OID”) and the initial allocation of fair value of compound derivatives reduce the initial carrying amount of the convertible notes. The carrying value is accreted to the stated principal amount at contractual maturity using the effective-interest method with a corresponding charge to interest expense. Debt discounts are presented on the consolidated balance sheets as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that related debt.

 

The Company made an irrevocable election at the time of issuance of the Debenture to record the Debenture at its fair value (the “Fair Value Option”) with changes in fair value recorded through the Company’s consolidated statements of operations within other income (expense) at each reporting period. The Fair Value Option provides the Company a measurement basis election for financial instruments on an instrument-by-instrument basis.

 

On February 14, 2023, the Company entered into the SPA with Alpha, a current shareholder of the Company, pursuant to which the Company issued to Alpha, an 8% Interest Rate, 10% Original Issue Discount, Senior Convertible Debenture (the “Debenture”) in the aggregate principal amount of $4,400,000 for a purchase price of $4,000,000 on February 15, 2023. The Debenture is convertible, at any time, and from time to time, at Alpha’s option, into ordinary shares of the Company (the “Conversion Shares”), at an initial conversion price equal to $7.00 per share, subject to adjustment as described below and in the Debenture (the “Conversion Price”). In addition, the Conversion Price of the Debenture was subject to an initial reset immediately prior to the Company’s filing of a registration statement covering the resale of the underlying shares to the lower of $7.00 and the average of the five Nasdaq Official Closing Prices immediately preceding such date (the “Reset Price”). The registration statement on Form S-1 (file No.: 333-271396) was filed on April 21, 2023, and as a result, the Reset Price is now $4.1772. The initial adjustment of the Conversion Price to the Reset Price had a floor price of $3.00 (the “Floor Price”).

 

Commencing November 1, 2023 and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter until the earlier of (i) February 15, 2026 (the “Maturity Date”) and (ii) the full redemption of the Debenture (each such date, a “Monthly Redemption Date”), the Company will redeem $209,524 plus accrued but unpaid interest, and any amounts then owing under the Debenture (the “Monthly Redemption Amount”).   The Monthly Redemption Amount will be paid in cash; provided, that the Company may elect to pay all or a portion of a Monthly Redemption Amount in ordinary shares of the Company, based on a conversion price equal to the lesser of (i) the then Conversion Price of the Debenture and (ii) 80% of the average of the VWAPs (as defined in the Debenture) for the five consecutive trading days ending on the trading day that is immediately prior to the applicable Monthly Redemption Date. The Company may also redeem some or all of the then outstanding principal amount of the Debenture at any time for cash in an amount equal to the then outstanding principal amount of the Debenture being redeemed plus accrued but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and any amounts then owing under the Debenture. These monthly redemption and optional redemptions are subject to the satisfaction of the Equity Conditions (as defined in the Debenture).

 

13
 

 

The Debenture initially accrues interest at the rate of 8% per annum for the first 12 months from the February 15, 2023, at the rate of 10% per annum for the ensuing 12 months, and thereafter until Maturity, at the rate of 12%, Interest may be paid in cash or ordinary shares of the Company or a combination thereof at the option of the Company; provided that interest may only be paid in shares if the Equity Conditions (as defined in the Debenture) have been satisfied, including Shareholder Approval. The Debenture includes a beneficial ownership blocker of 9.99%. The Debenture provides for adjustments to the Conversion Price in connection with stock dividends and splits, subsequent equity sales and rights offerings, pro rata distributions, and certain Fundamental Transactions. In the event the Company, at any time while the Debentures is outstanding, issues or grants any right to re-price, ordinary shares or any type of securities giving rights to obtain ordinary shares at a price below the Conversion Price, Alpha shall be extended full-ratchet anti-dilution protection (subject to customary Exempt Transaction issuances), and such reset shall not be limited by the Floor Price.  

 

At the time of execution, on February 14, 2023, the Company recorded an initial debt discount of $383,333 based on the allocation of fair value for the Debenture, which will be amortized into interest expense over term of the Debenture. For the period from February 14 through September 30, 2023, the Company recognized ($1,002,243) change in fair value of the convertible Debenture which is reflected in Other income and expense in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and $83,333 for the amortization of the OID, which is included in interest expense on the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

 

Purchase Warrant

 

On February 15, 2023, the Company also issued to Alpha a warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase 880,000 ordinary shares of the Company at an initial exercise price of $8.75 (the “Warrant Shares,” and, together with the Conversion Shares, and any other ordinary shares of the Company that may otherwise become issuable pursuant to the terms of the Debenture and Warrant, the “Underlying Shares”). The Warrant is exercisable in whole or in part, at any time on or after February 15, 2023 and before February 15, 2028. The exercise price of the Warrant was subject to an initial reset immediately prior to the Company’s filing of a proxy statement that included a shareholder proposal to approve the issuance of Underlying Share in excess of 19.99% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares on the Closing Date (the “Shareholder Proposal”) to the lower of $8.75 and the average of the five Nasdaq Official Closing Prices immediately preceding such date the. As a result, the exercise price has been reset to $4.0704, the average of the five Nasdaq Official Closing Prices immediately preceding April 14, 2023, the date the Company filed its preliminary proxy statement which included the Shareholder Proposal. The Warrant includes a beneficial ownership blocker of 9.99%. The Warrant provides for adjustments to the exercise price, in connection with stock dividends and splits, subsequent equity sales and rights offerings, pro rata distributions, and certain Fundamental Transactions.

 

In the event the Company, at any time while the Warrant is still outstanding, issues or grants any right to re-price, ordinary shares or any type of securities giving rights to obtain ordinary shares at a price below exercise price, Alpha shall be extended full-ratchet anti-dilution protection on the Warrant (reduction in price, only, no increase in number of Warrant Shares, and subject to customary Exempt Transaction issuances), and such reset shall not be limited by the Floor Price.

 

At the time of execution, the Company classified the Warrant as an equity contract and performed an initial fair value measurement. As the Warrant was issued with the sale of the Debenture, the value assigned to the Warrant was based on an allocation of proceeds, subject to the allocation to the Debenture. The Company recorded a debt discount for the Warrant of $1,174,229, based on the Black Scholes option-pricing model which was calculated independently of the fair value of the Debenture, and recorded the Warrant as additional paid in capital in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2023. Amortization of the debt discount amounted to $244,631 for the period ended September 30, 2023 and is included in interest expense on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

The following provides a summary of the Convertible Debenture recorded at fair value as of September 30, 2023:

 

      
Principle amount of convertible debenture at issuance:  $4,400,000 
Unamortized discount for warrants   (929,598)
Unamortized discount for OID   (316,669)
Accrued interest expense   216,987 
Change in fair value   1,002,243 
Balance of convertible debenture as of September 30, 2023:   4,372,963

Note 9 - Fair Value

 

In accordance with fair value accounting guidance, the Company determines fair value based on the exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The inputs used to measure fair value are classified into the following hierarchy:

 

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments that are accessible as of the measurement date
   
Level 2: Other significant pricing inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable
   
Level 3: Significant unobservable pricing inputs, which result in the use of management’s own assumptions

 

As disclosed in Note 8, the Debenture and the Warrant were reported at fair value at issuance. The   Debenture is adjusted to fair value on a recurring basis with changes in fair value recorded through the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations as other income (expense) for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

 

The following table sets forth the Company’s consolidated financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value by level within the fair value hierarchy on September 30, 2023:

 

   Convertible
Debenture
  

Purchase

Warrant

 
Level I  $-   $- 
Level II  $-   $- 
Level III  $4,372,963   $1,174,229 
Total  $4,372,963   $1,174,229 

 

The following table presents a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the Debenture measured at fair value on a recurring basis that uses significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) and the related expenses and losses recorded in the consolidated statement of operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

 

      
Fair Value, December 31, 2022  $- 
Issuance of convertible debenture   2,825,771 
Accretion for discount for warrants   244,629 
Accretion for discount for OID   83,333 
Interest expense   216,987 
Change in fair value   1,002,243 
Fair Value, September 30, 2023  $4,372,963 

 

The fair value of the Debenture was determined using a Monte Carlo Simulation (“MCS”) which incorporates the probability and timing of the consummation of a Fundamental Transaction event and conversion of the Debenture as of the valuation date.

 

The MCS implied a discount rate at issuance that resulted in a total value to the debenture and warrants that equated to the transaction proceeds. This discount rate was 75.28% at issuance and was calibrated to the September 30, 2023 valuation date by comparing the B rated commercial paper credit spread at both dates. B spreads as follows:

 

      
Issuance February 14, 2023   4.13%
Fair Value September 30, 2023   2.81%

 

On September 30, 2023, the Company valued the Debenture using a Monte Carlo Simulation model using the value of the underlying stock price of $1.60, exercise price of $8.75, expected dividend rate of 0%, risk-free interest rate of 4.83% and volatility of 66.3%. The Company estimated the term of the warrant to be 2.38 years.

Note 11 - Warrants

 

In conjunction with the Convertible Debenture and Warrant issuance on February 14, 2023, 266,667 warrants that were previously issued to Alpha on November 19, 2021 were revalued on February 14, 2023, reducing the exercise price from $45.00 per warrant share to $0.60 per warrant share. The Company performed a Black Scholes model for the re-pricing of the warrants using the value of the underlying stock price of $5.10 stock price, exercise price of $0.60, expected dividend rate of 0%, risk-free interest rate of 4.04% and volatility of 52.57% and remaining term of 2.9 years. These same assumptions were applied to the Warrant as discussed in Note 8. The value allocated to the warrants on November 19, 2021 was $11,435 and recorded in Additional Paid-In Capital. The fair value of the re-priced warrants on February 15, 2023 was $1,218,205, an increase of $1,206,771. The incremental value of the warrants is also recorded in Additional Paid-In Capital as of September 30, 2023 as a deemed dividend.

Note 12 - Stock Compensation

 

Option awards are generally granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s ordinary shares at the date of grant; those options generally vest based on three years of continuous service and have ten-year contractual terms. Certain option and share awards provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control, as defined in the plans.

 

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using a Black Scholes option-pricing model. The Company uses historical option exercise and termination data to estimate the term the options are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The expected dividend yield is calculated using historical dividend amounts and the stock price at the option issue date. The expected volatility is determined using the volatility of peer companies. The Company’s underlying stock has been publicly traded since the date of the MTS Merger. Subsequent to the MTS Merger, option grants made under the SharpLink Inc. 2021 Plan utilized the publicly traded stock price of the Company on the day of the option award. All option grants made under the SharpLink, Inc. 2020 Stock Incentive Plan were prior to the MTS Merger. The underlying SharpLink, Inc. stock under that plan was not publicly traded but was estimated on the date of the grants using valuation methods that consider valuations from recent equity financings as well as future planned transactions. All option grants made under the SportsHub Games Network Inc. 2018 Incentive Plan were prior to the SportsHub Acquisition. The underlying SportsHub stock under that plan was not publicly traded but was estimated on the date of the grants using valuation methods that consider valuations from recent equity financings as well as future planned transactions.

 

The fair value of each stock option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

Note 13 - Operating Segments

 

The Company has four operating segments: Affiliate Marketing Services – United States, Affiliate Marketing Services – International, Sports Gaming Client Services and SportsHub Games Network. Each operating segment is also a reportable segment. The Enterprise Telecom Expense Management (“Enterprise TEM”) business unit is reflected in discontinued operations (see Note 16). The Enterprise TEM and Affiliate Marketing Services – International segments are a result of the MTS Merger and FourCubed acquisition, respectively, in 2021. The Enterprise TEM segment will not be presented going forward due to its sale on December 31, 2022.

 

The Affiliate Marketing Services – United States segment operates a performance marketing platform which owns and operates state-specific web domains designed to attract, acquire and drive local sports betting and casino traffic directly to the Company’s sportsbook and casino partners which are licensed to operate in each respective state. The Company earns a commission from sportsbooks and casino operators on new depositors directed to them via our proprietary D2P websites in America. In addition, this segment provides sports betting data (e.g., betting lines) to sports media publishers in exchange for a fixed fee.

 

The Affiliate Marketing Services – International segment is an iGaming and affiliate marketing network, focused on delivering quality traffic and player acquisitions, retention and conversions to global iGaming operator partners worldwide in exchange for a commission (cost per acquisition or portion of net gaming revenues) paid to the Company by the partners for the new players referred to them.

 

The Sports Gaming Client Services segment provides its clients with development, hosting, operations, maintenance, and service of free-to-play games and contests. These relationships can be either software-as-service (“SaaS”) arrangements that are hosted by SharpLink and accessed through its clients’ websites or other electronic media; or software licenses that allow the client to take the software on premise.

 

The SportsHub Games Network segment owns and operates a variety of real-money fantasy sports and sports simulation games and mobile apps on its platform; and is licensed or authorized to operate in every state in the United States where fantasy sports play is legal and in which SportsHub has elected to operate based on the financial viability of operating there.

The Company’s license contracts contain promises to transfer multiple products to the customer. Judgment is required to determine whether each product is considered to be a distinct performance obligation that should be accounted for separately under the contract. We have elected to utilize the “right to invoice” practical expedient under ASC 606 which allows us to recognize revenue for our performance under the contract for the value which we have provided to the customer during a period of time in our contract with them.

 

Determining whether licenses are distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately, or not distinct and thus accounted for together, requires significant judgment. In some arrangements, such as the Company’s license arrangements, the Company has concluded that the individual licenses are distinct from each other. In others, like the Company’s SaaS arrangements, the software development and final product are not distinct from each other because they are highly integrated and therefore the Company has concluded that these promised goods are a single, combined performance obligation.

 

The Company is required to estimate the total consideration expected to be received from contracts with customers. In certain circumstances, the consideration expected to be received is fixed based on the specific terms of the contract or based on the Company’s expectations of the term of the contract. The Company has not experienced significant returns from or refunds to customers. These estimates require significant judgment and the change in these estimates could have an effect on its results of operations during the periods involved.

 

The Company follows a five-step model to assess each sale to a customer; identify the legally binding contract, identify the performance obligations, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price, and determine whether revenue will be recognized at a point in time or over time. Revenue recognized point in time and over time is presented by period below:

Total  $285,004   $2,524,547   $2,130,713   $-   $4,940,264 

 

The Company’s assets and liabilities related to its contracts with customers were as follows:

 

   September 30,
2023
   December 31,
2022
 
         
Accounts receivable  $1,394,340   $776,530 
Unbilled revenue   128,879    47,000 
Contract assets   99,410    219,116 
Contract liabilities   (8,448,201)   (2,166,451)

 

The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers and these timing differences result in contract advanced billings on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. The Company has an enforceable right to payment upon invoicing and records contract liabilities when revenue is recognized subsequent to invoicing. The Company recognized unbilled revenue when revenue is recognized prior to invoicing.

 

The Company recognized contract assets related to direct costs incurred to fulfil the contracts. These costs are primarily labor costs associated with the development of the software. The Company defers these costs and amortizes them into cost of revenues over the period revenues are recognized.

 

The activity in the contract assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 is as follows:

 

   Amount 
Balance as of December 31, 2022  $219,116 
Labor costs expensed   (577,956)
Labor costs deferred   458,250 
Balance as of September 30, 2023  $99,410 

 

22
 

 

The Company recognizes contract liabilities for cash received from its users prior to recognition of revenue to fulfil its contracts. The payments received are primarily from the Company’s operation of its own online gaming business. The Company defers the revenue and recognizes it throughout the online game’s respective season.

 

The activity in the contract liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 is as follows:

 

   Amount 
Balance as of December 31, 2022  $(2,166,451)
Revenue recognized or reclassified   10,374,078 
Deferred revenue   (16,655,828)
Balance as of September 30, 2023  $(8,448,201)

 

All contract liabilities at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were recognized as revenue or expected to be recognized within the next fiscal year. All other activity in contract liabilities is due to the timing of invoices in relation to the timing of revenue as described above.

 

Contracted but unsatisfied performance obligations were approximately $410,110   and $850,000 as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, of which the Company expects to recognize the entire amount in revenue over the next year.

 

Payment terms and conditions vary by contract type, although terms generally include a requirement of payment within 30 days. In instances where the timing of revenue recognition differs from the timing of invoicing, the Company has determined that its contracts generally do not include a significant financing component. The primary purpose of invoicing terms is to provide customers with simplified and predictable ways of purchasing the Company’s products and services, and not to facilitate financing arrangements.

 

The Company had three customers that accounted for approximately 36% of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. There was $451,035 due from these customers at September 30, 2023.

 

The Company had three customers that accounted for approximately 59% of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. There was $322,085 due from these customers at September 30, 2022.

 

Note 15 – Income Taxes

 

On a quarterly basis, we estimate our annual effective tax rate and record a quarterly income tax provision based on the anticipated rate. As the year progresses, we refine our estimate based on the facts and circumstances, including discrete events, by each tax jurisdiction. The effective tax rate for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023 was (0.32%); and for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, it was (0.01)%.

 

Note 16 – Discontinued Operations

 

In accordance with ASC 205-20 Presentation of Financial Statements: Discontinued Operations, a disposal of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity is required to be reported as discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major impact on an entity’s operations and financial results when the components of an entity meets the criteria in ASC paragraph 205-20-45-10. In the period in which the component meets the held for sale or discontinued operations criteria the major assets, other assets, current liabilities and non-current liabilities shall be reported as a component of total assets and liabilities separate from those balances of the continuing operations. At the same time, the results of all discontinued operations, less applicable income taxes (benefit), shall be reported as components of net income (loss) separate from the income (loss) of continuing operations.

 

In June 2022, the Company’s board of directors authorized management to enter into negotiations to sell MTS. The Company negotiated a Share and Asset Purchase Agreement which was closed on December 31, 2022. The majority of the assets of the primary reporting unit within MTS were sold. The assets and liabilities remaining post transaction are in the process of winding down subsequent to the year ended December 31, 2022. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of the MTS business are separately reported as assets and liabilities from discontinued operations as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The results of operations and cash flows of MTS for all periods are separately reported as discontinued operations.

 

23
 

 

Prior to the sale of MTS on December 31, 2022, the Enterprise TEM operating segment’s performance obligations are satisfied either overtime (managed services and maintenance) or at a point in time (software licenses). Professional services rendered after implementation are recognized as performed. Software license revenue is recognized when the customer has access to the license and the right to use and benefit from the license. Many of the Enterprise TEM operating segment’s agreements include software license bundled with maintenance and supports. The Company allocates the transaction price for each contract to each performance obligation identified in the contract based on the relative standalone selling price (SSP). The Company determines SSP for the purposes of allocating the transaction price to each performance obligation by considering several external and internal factors including, but not limited to, transactions where the specific element sold separately, historical actual pricing practices in accordance with ASC 606, Revenues from Contracts with Customers. The determination of SSP requires the exercise of judgement. For maintenance and support, the Company determines the SSP based on the price at which the Company sells a renewal contract.

 

A reconciliation of the major classes of line items constituting the loss from discontinued operations, net of income taxes as presented in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 (unaudited) is summarized in the table below.

We continue to make deliberate and substantial investments in support of our long-term growth objectives. Our primary growth strategy is centered on cost effectively monetizing our own and our customers’ respective online audiences of U.S. fantasy sports and casual sports fans and casino gaming enthusiasts by converting them into loyal online sports and iGaming bettors.

More specifically, C4:

 

  COLLECTS, analyzes and leverages deep learning of behavioral data relating to individual fans;
  CONNECTS and controls fan engagement with real-time, personalized betting offers sourced from U.S. sportsbooks and casinos in states where online betting has been legalized;

28

Nasdaq Notice

 

On May 23, 2023, SharpLink received a notice (the “Notice”) from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) stating that SharpLink is no longer in compliance with the equity standard for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) requires listed companies to maintain stockholders’ equity of at least $2,500,000 under the net equity standard. As of SharpLink Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023, SharpLink reported an accumulated stockholders’ deficit of $82,728,717 and total stockholders’ deficit of $4,463,917 respectively. SharpLink currently does not meet the alternative standards for market value of listed securities or net income from continuing operations, thus SharpLink is not in compliance with Nasdaq’s Listing Rule.

 

Nasdaq provided the Company with 45 calendar days, or until July 7, 2023, to submit a plan to regain compliance. The Company timely submitted its plan and relevant materials to Nasdaq and requested an extension through November 20, 2023 to evidence compliance with the Rule. On August 3, 2023, the Company received a determination letter (the “Letter”) from Nasdaq advising it that Nasdaq determined to grant the Company an extension to regain compliance with the Rule on or before November 20, 2023. The terms of the extension are as follows: on or before November 20, 2023, the Company must take the actions set forth in the plan and opt for one of the two alternatives to evidence compliance with the Rule.

 

Regardless of which alternative the Company chooses, if the Company fails to evidence compliance upon filing its periodic report for the year ended December 31, 2023, with the SEC and Nasdaq, the Company may receive a written notification from Staff that its securities will be delisted. At that time, the Company may appeal Staff’s determination to a Hearings Panel.

The 8% Interest Rate, 10% Original Issue Discount, Senior Convertible Debenture in the aggregate principal amount of $4,400,000 (as amended, the “Debenture”) issued to Alpha Capital Anstalt (“Alpha”) on February 15, 2023, convertible into SharpLink Israel Shares, will be convertible into shares of SharpLink US Common Stock at the same price and on the same other terms and any interest paid thereunder in shares will be paid in SharpLink US Common Stock. By virtue of the Domestication Merger, all of the SharpLink Israel Shares and SharpLink Israel Preferred Shares shall represent the right to receive the applicable SharpLink US Common Stock and Preferred Stock, shall be deemed to have been transferred to SharpLink US in exchange for the right to receive such applicable SharpLink US Common Stock and Preferred Stock, and each holder of a certificate or of evidence of shares in book-entry account, representing any certificated or non-certificated SharpLink Israel Shares or SharpLink Israel Preferred Shares, shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the applicable SharpLink US Common Stock and Preferred Stock.

Revenues

 

For the three-month periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, revenues climbed 153% to $3,269,924 from $1,292,674, respectively, due primarily to revenue contribution from SportsHub Games Network Inc. (“SportsHub”), which was merged with SharpLink on December 22, 2022, coupled with revenue growth in all other SharpLink’s business units. More specifically, revenues from our Affiliate Marketing Services – United States business unit increased to $231,921 from $114,972 on a comparable quarter-over-quarter basis. Likewise, revenue from our Affiliate Marketing Services – International business unit totaled $1,191,964 for the three months ended September 30, 2023, which compared to $760,585 for the same three months in the prior year. Revenues from the development of free-to-play games by our Sports Gaming Client Services saw a modest improvement, increasing to $420,100 from $417,117 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

For the same reasons mentioned above, total revenues for the nine months ended September 30 2023 and 2022 more than doubled, increasing 101% to $9,917,671 from $4,940,264, respectively. On a segmented basis, nine-month revenues from our Affiliate Marketing Services – United States business unit totaled $817,268 in 2023 which compared to $285,004 for the same nine-month reporting period in 2022. Total revenues from our Affiliate Marketing Services – International business unit rose to $3,325,128 compared to $2,524,547 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Our Sports Gaming Client Services group contributed $2,183,644 towards total revenues for the nine-months ended September 30, 2023, up from $2,130,713 reported for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Revenues from SportsHub totaled $3,591,631 for the first nine months of 2023, which compared to $0 for the same period in 2022 due to the timing of the merger in December 2022.

 

31
 

 

Gross Profit

 

Gross profit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, improved significantly, rising to $1,136,320, increasing 505% from $187,979 for the comparable three-month reporting periods, respectively; and increasing 281% to $3,445,272 compared to $905,427 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Gross profit margin for the three months ended September 30, 2023 improved to 35%, which compared to 15% for the same three months in 2022; and gross profit margin increased to 35% from 18% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

 

Operating Expenses

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, total operating expenses increased 71% to $3,595,072, up from $2,105,178 for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was attributable solely to higher selling, general and administrative expenses attributable primarily to our December 2022 merger with SportsHub as well as expansion initiatives associated with our Affiliate Marketing Services business units. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, operating expenses declined 18% to $11,014,991 from $13,390,818 due largely to a goodwill and intangible asset impairment expense of $4,726,000 recorded in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022.

 

Operating Loss from Continuing Operations

 

Operating loss increased 28% to $2,458,752 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to an operating loss of $1,917,199 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2022. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, operating loss decreased 39% to $7,569,719 from $12,485,391, respectively, due largely to a goodwill and intangible asset impairment expense of $4,726,000 booked in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022.

 

Net Loss from Continuing Operations

 

For the reasons detailed above and after factoring in an expense in total other income and expense of $238,345 and provision for income taxes of $4,450, net loss from continuing operations for the three months ended September 30, 2023 totaled $2,701,547, a 39% increase from $1,942,974 reported for the same three months in the prior year after factoring total other income and expense of $25,475 and provision for income taxes of $300.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company’s net loss from continuing operations improved 31%, declining to $8,672,446 after factoring an expense of $1,061,127 in total other income and expense and provision for income taxes of $41,600. This compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $12,542,782 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 after factoring $56,391 in total other expense and a provision for income taxes of $1,000.

 

During the three- and nine-month reporting periods in 2023, total other income and expense was largely attributable to interest and other expenses associated with the Company’s bank lines of credit, coupled with accounting for the change in fair value of its convertible debenture offset by higher interest income earned on its cash on hand.

 

Net Income (Loss) from Discontinued Operations

 

Net loss from discontinued operations of SharpLink’s legacy MTS business increased to $148,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2023, which compared to a net loss from discontinued operations of $104,633 for the three months ended September 30, 2023. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, net loss from discontinued operations of the legacy MTS business totaled $441,997, down 68% from $1,360,286 reported for the same nine months in 2022.

 

Net Loss Available to Ordinary Shareholders

 

For all of the aforementioned reasons, the total net loss available to ordinary shareholders increased 39% to $2,849,760, or $0.99 loss per share, which compared to a net loss attributable to shareholders of $2,049,854 or $0.86 loss per share, for the same three months in 2022. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the total net loss available to ordinary shareholders was $9,164,937, or $3.35 loss per share, reflecting a 34% decline when compared to a total net loss attributable to shareholders of $13,911,156, or $5.89 loss per share, reported for the comparable nine-month period in the previous year.

Cash Flows

 

As of September 30, 2023, the Company had $49,309,668 in cash and $14,874,585 in restricted cash, as compared to cash of $39,324,529 and restricted cash of $11,132,957 as of December 31, 2022. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, cash provided by operations from continuing activities was $6,266,211, which compared to cash used in operations from continuing activities of $6,376,631 for the first nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in cash and in restricted cash was primarily attributable to fantasy sports league entry fees collected for the 2023-2024 NFL season as well as entry fees for the 2023 MLB season, offset by payouts for fantasy sports prizes following the end of the 2022-2023 NFL season that occurred in January in addition to normal working capital spend.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, cash used in investing activities from continuing operations was $844,350, which compared to $593,385 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in cash used in investing activities was largely attributable to an increase in capital expenditures associated with ongoing development of our C4 sports betting conversion technology and new generative Artificial Intelligence solution, Betsense, in 2023, as well as payments related to the acquisition of FourCubed in 2022.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, cash provided by financing activities was $7,862,906, as compared to cash provided by financing activities of $2,765,497 recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. In February 2023, a securities purchase agreement entered into with a current shareholder of the Company, pursuant to which the Company issued the investor a convertible debenture in the aggregate principal amount of $4,400,000 for proceeds of $4,000,000. The Company also drew down $4,629,349 from its line of credit with Platinum Bank in the first nine months of 2023. The overall increase was offset by repayments of debt totaling $758,943 and payments of debt issue costs totaling $7,500 in the 2023 nine-month reporting period.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We will require additional capital to support our growth plans and such capital may not be available on reasonable terms or at all. There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

As of September 30, 2023, we had negative working capital of $13,500,173. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we incurred a net loss from continuing operations of $8,672,446 representing a 31% decrease from a loss from continuing operations of $12,542,782 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. In the pursuit of SharpLink’s long-term growth strategy and the development of its fan activation and conversion software and related businesses, the Company has sustained continued operating losses. To fund anticipated future losses from operations, the Company secured additional financing through a $3,250,000 term loan in January 2022, as described in Note 7 - Debt. In addition, as described in Note 6, on February 13, 2023, the Company entered into a Revolving Credit Agreement with Platinum Bank and executed a revolving promissory note of $7,000,000. Moreover, on February 14, 2023, the Company entered into the SPA with Alpha, a current shareholder of the Company, pursuant to which the Company issued to Alpha a convertible debenture in the aggregate principal amount of $4,400,000 for proceeds of $4,000,000.

 

Until we can generate a sufficient amount of revenue to finance our capital needs, which we may never achieve, we expect to finance our cash needs primarily through public or private equity financings or conventional debt financings. We cannot be certain that additional funding will be available on acceptable terms or at all. If we are not able to secure additional funding when needed to support our business growth and to respond to business challenges, track and comply with applicable laws and regulations, develop new technology and services or enhance our existing offering, improve our operating infrastructure, enhance our information security systems to combat changing cyber threats and expand personnel to support our business, we may have to delay or reduce the scope of planned strategic growth initiatives. Moreover, any additional equity financing that we obtain may dilute the ownership held by our existing shareholders. The economic dilution to our shareholders will be significant if our stock price does not materially increase, or if the effective price of any sale is below the price paid by a particular shareholder. Any debt financing could involve substantial restrictions on activities and creditors could seek additional pledges of some or all of our assets. If we fail to obtain additional funding as needed, we may be forced to cease or scale back operations, and our results, financial conditions and stock price would be adversely affected. As such, these factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

On September 30, 2023, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenue or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources. Since our inception, except for standard operating leases accounted for prior to January 1, 2022, we have not engaged in any off-balance sheet arrangements, including the use of structured finance, special purpose entities or variable interest entities. We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.

 

Inflation

 

Our opinion is that inflation did not have a material effect on our operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

 

Climate Change

 

Our opinion is that neither climate change, nor governmental regulations related to climate change, have had, or are expected to have, any material effect on our operations.

 

New Accounting Pronouncements

 

There were certain updates recently issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries or situations and are not expected to a have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by SharpLink Gaming Ltd. (the “Company,” “SharpLink,” formerly Mer Telemanagement Services or “MTS”, “we,” or “our”), pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of the Company, the foregoing statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, its results of operations and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022, has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts therein. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making estimates, actual results in future periods may differ from the estimates.

 

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been omitted pursuant to rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, the condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statement presentation. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2022, which are included the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 5, 2023 and the Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on July 14, 2023.

 

Nature of Business

 

The Company is an Israeli-based corporation. SharpLink is a leading online technology company that connects sports fans, leagues and sports websites to relevant and timely sports betting and iGaming content. SharpLink uses proprietary, intelligent, online conversion technology and direct-to-player (“D2P”) performance marketing strategies to convert sports fans into sports bettors and online casino game players for licensed, online sportsbook and casino operators. Further, SharpLink, through its SportsHub Games Network Inc. (“SportsHub”) reporting unit, owns and operates an online gaming business that primarily facilitates daily and seasonal peer-to-peer fantasy contests for its end users. The Company also operates a website that provides a variety of services to private fantasy league commissioners, including secure online payment options, transparent tracking and reporting of transactions, payment reminders, in-season security of league funds, and facilitation of prize payouts. SportsHub was acquired by the Company on December 22, 2022.

 

On July 26, 2021, SharpLink, Inc. completed its merger with Mer Telemanagement Solutions Ltd. (the “MTS Merger”), which changed its name to SharpLink Gaming Ltd. and commenced trading on NASDAQ under the ticker symbol “SBET.” As a result of the MTS Merger, SharpLink, Inc. shareholders owned 86% of the Company, on a fully diluted and as-converted basis, which represented a majority of the voting shares. Additionally, immediately following the closing of the MTS Merger, legacy MTS directors and officers agreed to resign, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of July 26, 2021 (“MTS Merger Agreement”). SharpLink, Inc.’s executives became officers of the Company and new members were appointed to the board of directors. The MTS Merger represented a reverse acquisition in which SharpLink, Inc. was the accounting acquirer and legacy MTS was the accounting acquiree. The Company applied the acquisition method of accounting to the identifiable assets and liabilities of legacy MTS, which were measured at estimated fair value as of the date of the business combination.

 

Reverse Share Split

 

On April 23, 2023, the Company effected a one-for-ten (1:10) reverse share split of all the Company’s share capital and adopted amendments to its Memorandum of Association and Second Amended and Restated Articles of Association (“M&AA”) whereby the Company (i) decreased the number of issued and outstanding ordinary shares, nominal value NIS 0.60  per share, from 26,881,244 to 2,688,541; (ii) reduced the total number of the Company’s authorized shares under its M&AA from 92,900,000 ordinary shares, nominal value NIS 0.06 per share, to 9,290,000 ordinary shares, nominal value NIS 0.60 per share; and (ii) decreased by a ratio of one-for-ten (1:10) the number of retrospectively issued and outstanding ordinary shares. Proportional adjustments for the reverse stock split were made to the Company’s outstanding stock options, warrants and equity incentive plans. All share and per-share data and amounts have been retrospectively adjusted as of the earliest period presented in the financial statements to reflect the reverse stock split.

 

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain reclassifications were made to the balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 to conform to the September 30, 2023 method of presentation. Certain reclassifications were made to the consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to conform to the September 30, 2023 method of presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on reported total current assets, total assets, total current liabilities, total liabilities, total stockholder’s equity, or revenues.

Going Concern

Note 2 - Going Concern

 

In the pursuit of SharpLink’s long-term growth strategy and the development of its fan activation and conversion software and related businesses, the Company has sustained continued operating losses. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, the Company had a net loss from continuing operations of $8,672,446 and $12,542,782 respectively; and cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations of $6,266,211 and cash used for operating activities from continuing operations ($6,376,631), respectively. To fund anticipated future planned losses from operations, on February 13, 2023, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with Alpha Capital Anstalt (“Alpha”), a current shareholder of the Company, on February 14, 2023, pursuant to which the Company issued to Alpha an 8% Interest Rate, 10% Original Issue Discount, Senior Convertible Debenture (the “Debenture”) in the aggregate principal amount of $4,400,000 for a purchase price of $4,000,000. In addition, on February 13, 2023, SharpLink, Inc., a Minnesota corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a Revolving Credit Agreement with Platinum Bank, a Minnesota banking corporation and executed a revolving promissory note of $7,000,000.

 

The Company is continually evaluating strategies to obtain the required additional funding for future operations. These strategies may include, but are not limited to, equity financing, issuing, or restructuring debt, entering into other financing arrangements, and restructuring operations to increase revenues and decrease expenses. The Company may be unable to access further equity or debt financing when needed or obtain additional liquidity under acceptable terms, if at all. As such, these factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period.

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the carrying amounts and classification of assets, liabilities, and reported expenses that may be necessary if the Company were unable to continue as a going concern.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging— Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for convertible debt and convertible preferred stock by removing the requirements to separately present certain conversion features in equity. In addition, the amendments in the ASU also simplify the guidance in ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging: Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity, by removing certain criteria that must be satisfied in order to classify a contract as equity, which is expected to decrease the number of freestanding instruments and embedded derivatives accounted for as assets or liabilities. Finally, the amendments revise the guidance on calculating earnings per share, requiring use of the if-converted method for all convertible instruments and rescinding an entity’s ability to rebut the presumption of share settlement for instruments that may be settled in cash or other assets. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2023 and was applied to the Company’s accounting for its convertible debenture and warrants (see Note 8).

 

In June 2016 and subsequently amended in March 2022, the FASB issued ASC 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurements of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASC 326”), which replaces the existing incurred loss model with a current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model that requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The Company would be required to use a forward-looking CECL model for accounts receivables, guarantees and other financial instruments. The Company adopted ASC 326 on January 1, 2023 and ASC 326 did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements as the Company has not had any historical credit losses.

SportsHub Games Network, Inc. (“SportsHub”)

 

Description of the Transaction

 

On December 22, 2022, SharpLink, through its wholly owned subsidiary, SHGN Acquisition Corp (“Acquirer” or the “Merger Subsidiary”) acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of SportsHub (the “SportsHub Acquisition”), via an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of September 6, 2022 (the “SportsHub Merger Agreement”). In accordance with the terms of the SportsHub Merger Agreement between the Acquirer, SportsHub and an individual acting as the SportsHub stockholders’ representative (the “Stockholder Representative”):

 

  SharpLink issued an aggregate of 431,926 ordinary shares to the equity holders of SportsHub, on a fully diluted basis, including 377,985 ordinary shares actually issued on December 22, 2022 and an additional aggregate of 53,941 shares being held in escrow as well as shares held in escrow for indemnifiable losses and for the reimbursement of expenses incurred by the Stockholder Representative in performing his duties pursuant to the SportsHub Merger Agreement. An additional aggregate of 40,585 ordinary shares were reserved for future issuance, including 23,714 ordinary shares reserved for SportsHub shareholders who had yet to provide the applicable documentation required in connection with the SportsHub Acquisition and were issued in June 2023 when the documentation was available. 13,975 ordinary shares underlying the options and 2,896 ordinary shares underlying the warrants remain unissued until the options and/or warrants are exercised.
     
  SportsHub merged with and into the Merger Subsidiary, with the Merger Subsidiary remaining as the surviving corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of SharpLink.
     
  SportsHub, which owned 889,380 ordinary shares of SharpLink prior to the SportsHub Acqusition, distributed those shares to its stockholders immediately prior to the consummation of the SportsHub Acqusition. These shares were not part of the purchase consideration.
     
  SharpLink assumed $5,387,850 of SportsHub’s debt as purchase consideration.

 

Identification of Accounting Acquirer

 

The transaction was accomplished through a direct acquisition, whereby SHGN Acquisition Corp effectively acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of SportsHub, as a result of which SHGN Acquisition Corp obtained control over SportsHub. Therefore, SHGN Acquisition Corp has been determined to be the acquirer in the transaction, and SportsHub the acquiree.

 

Determining the Acquisition Date

 

The Acquirer obtained control of SportsHub following the exchange of consideration on December 22, 2022. Thus, the closing date of December 22, 2022 was the acquisition date.

 

Purchase Price

 

The purchase price is based on SharpLink’s closing share price of $2.90 on December 22, 2022 and 472,513 of ordinary shares as well as the fair value of Seller’s term loan of $1,267,199 and line of credit of $4,120,651. The following table represents the purchase consideration paid in the SportsHub Acquisition:

  

Description  Amount 
Fair Value of Equity Consideration  $1,370,287 
Fair Value of Seller Platinum Line of Credit and Loan   5,387,850 
Total Purchase Price  $6,758,137 

 

Purchase Price Allocation

 

The SportsHub Acquisition assets and liabilities were measured at fair values as of December 22, 2022, primarily based on the valuation determined by an independent valuation, which were based on income-based method and relief from royalty method. Estimates of fair value represent management’s best estimate of assumptions about future events and uncertainties, including significant judgments related to future cash flows, discount rates, competitive trends, margin and revenue growth assumptions, including royalty rates and customer attrition rates and others. Inputs used were generally obtained from historical data supplemented by current and anticipated market conditions and growth rates expected as of the acquisition date.

 

 

The fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of December 22, 2022 were as follows:

 

      
Assets:     
Cash  $38,255,266 
Restricted cash   10,604,004 
Accounts receivable   186,712 
Prepaid expenses and other current assets   1,916,932

Note 8 - Convertible Debenture and Warrant

 

Convertible Debenture, at Fair Value

 

The Company accounts for convertible debentures using an amortized cost model. The discount for warrants, the Original Issuance Discount (“OID”) and the initial allocation of fair value of compound derivatives reduce the initial carrying amount of the convertible notes. The carrying value is accreted to the stated principal amount at contractual maturity using the effective-interest method with a corresponding charge to interest expense. Debt discounts are presented on the consolidated balance sheets as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that related debt.

 

The Company made an irrevocable election at the time of issuance of the Debenture to record the Debenture at its fair value (the “Fair Value Option”) with changes in fair value recorded through the Company’s consolidated statements of operations within other income (expense) at each reporting period. The Fair Value Option provides the Company a measurement basis election for financial instruments on an instrument-by-instrument basis.

 

On February 14, 2023, the Company entered into the SPA with Alpha, a current shareholder of the Company, pursuant to which the Company issued to Alpha, an 8% Interest Rate, 10% Original Issue Discount, Senior Convertible Debenture (the “Debenture”) in the aggregate principal amount of $4,400,000 for a purchase price of $4,000,000 on February 15, 2023. The Debenture is convertible, at any time, and from time to time, at Alpha’s option, into ordinary shares of the Company (the “Conversion Shares”), at an initial conversion price equal to $7.00 per share, subject to adjustment as described below and in the Debenture (the “Conversion Price”). In addition, the Conversion Price of the Debenture was subject to an initial reset immediately prior to the Company’s filing of a registration statement covering the resale of the underlying shares to the lower of $7.00 and the average of the five Nasdaq Official Closing Prices immediately preceding such date (the “Reset Price”). The registration statement on Form S-1 (file No.: 333-271396) was filed on April 21, 2023, and as a result, the Reset Price is now $4.1772. The initial adjustment of the Conversion Price to the Reset Price had a floor price of $3.00 (the “Floor Price”).

 

Commencing November 1, 2023 and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter until the earlier of (i) February 15, 2026 (the “Maturity Date”) and (ii) the full redemption of the Debenture (each such date, a “Monthly Redemption Date”), the Company will redeem $209,524 plus accrued but unpaid interest, and any amounts then owing under the Debenture (the “Monthly Redemption Amount”).   The Monthly Redemption Amount will be paid in cash; provided, that the Company may elect to pay all or a portion of a Monthly Redemption Amount in ordinary shares of the Company, based on a conversion price equal to the lesser of (i) the then Conversion Price of the Debenture and (ii) 80% of the average of the VWAPs (as defined in the Debenture) for the five consecutive trading days ending on the trading day that is immediately prior to the applicable Monthly Redemption Date. The Company may also redeem some or all of the then outstanding principal amount of the Debenture at any time for cash in an amount equal to the then outstanding principal amount of the Debenture being redeemed plus accrued but unpaid interest, liquidated damages and any amounts then owing under the Debenture. These monthly redemption and optional redemptions are subject to the satisfaction of the Equity Conditions (as defined in the Debenture).

 

 

The Debenture initially accrues interest at the rate of 8% per annum for the first 12 months from the February 15, 2023, at the rate of 10% per annum for the ensuing 12 months, and thereafter until Maturity, at the rate of 12%, Interest may be paid in cash or ordinary shares of the Company or a combination thereof at the option of the Company; provided that interest may only be paid in shares if the Equity Conditions (as defined in the Debenture) have been satisfied, including Shareholder Approval. The Debenture includes a beneficial ownership blocker of 9.99%. The Debenture provides for adjustments to the Conversion Price in connection with stock dividends and splits, subsequent equity sales and rights offerings, pro rata distributions, and certain Fundamental Transactions. In the event the Company, at any time while the Debentures is outstanding, issues or grants any right to re-price, ordinary shares or any type of securities giving rights to obtain ordinary shares at a price below the Conversion Price, Alpha shall be extended full-ratchet anti-dilution protection (subject to customary Exempt Transaction issuances), and such reset shall not be limited by the Floor Price.  

 

At the time of execution, on February 14, 2023, the Company recorded an initial debt discount of $383,333 based on the allocation of fair value for the Debenture, which will be amortized into interest expense over term of the Debenture. For the period from February 14 through September 30, 2023, the Company recognized ($1,002,243) change in fair value of the convertible Debenture which is reflected in Other income and expense in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and $83,333 for the amortization of the OID, which is included in interest expense on the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

 

Purchase Warrant

 

On February 15, 2023, the Company also issued to Alpha a warrant (the “Warrant”) to purchase 880,000 ordinary shares of the Company at an initial exercise price of $8.75 (the “Warrant Shares,” and, together with the Conversion Shares, and any other ordinary shares of the Company that may otherwise become issuable pursuant to the terms of the Debenture and Warrant, the “Underlying Shares”). The Warrant is exercisable in whole or in part, at any time on or after February 15, 2023 and before February 15, 2028. The exercise price of the Warrant was subject to an initial reset immediately prior to the Company’s filing of a proxy statement that included a shareholder proposal to approve the issuance of Underlying Share in excess of 19.99% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares on the Closing Date (the “Shareholder Proposal”) to the lower of $8.75 and the average of the five Nasdaq Official Closing Prices immediately preceding such date the. As a result, the exercise price has been reset to $4.0704, the average of the five Nasdaq Official Closing Prices immediately preceding April 14, 2023, the date the Company filed its preliminary proxy statement which included the Shareholder Proposal. The Warrant includes a beneficial ownership blocker of 9.99%. The Warrant provides for adjustments to the exercise price, in connection with stock dividends and splits, subsequent equity sales and rights offerings, pro rata distributions, and certain Fundamental Transactions.

 

In the event the Company, at any time while the Warrant is still outstanding, issues or grants any right to re-price, ordinary shares or any type of securities giving rights to obtain ordinary shares at a price below exercise price, Alpha shall be extended full-ratchet anti-dilution protection on the Warrant (reduction in price, only, no increase in number of Warrant Shares, and subject to customary Exempt Transaction issuances), and such reset shall not be limited by the Floor Price.

 

At the time of execution, the Company classified the Warrant as an equity contract and performed an initial fair value measurement. As the Warrant was issued with the sale of the Debenture, the value assigned to the Warrant was based on an allocation of proceeds, subject to the allocation to the Debenture. The Company recorded a debt discount for the Warrant of $1,174,229, based on the Black Scholes option-pricing model which was calculated independently of the fair value of the Debenture, and recorded the Warrant as additional paid in capital in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2023. Amortization of the debt discount amounted to $244,631 for the period ended September 30, 2023 and is included in interest expense on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

The following provides a summary of the Convertible Debenture recorded at fair value as of September 30, 2023:

 

      
Principle amount of convertible debenture at issuance:  $4,400,000 
Unamortized discount for warrants   (929,598)

Note 9 - Fair Value

 

In accordance with fair value accounting guidance, the Company determines fair value based on the exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The inputs used to measure fair value are classified into the following hierarchy:

 

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments that are accessible as of the measurement date
   
Level 2: Other significant pricing inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable
   
Level 3: Significant unobservable pricing inputs, which result in the use of management’s own assumptions

 

As disclosed in Note 8, the Debenture and the Warrant were reported at fair value at issuance. The   Debenture is adjusted to fair value on a recurring basis with changes in fair value recorded through the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations as other income (expense) for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

 

The following table sets forth the Company’s consolidated financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value by level within the fair value hierarchy on September 30, 2023:

 

   Convertible
Debenture
  

Purchase

Warrant

 
Level I  $-   $- 
Level II  $-   $- 
Level III  $4,372,963   $1,174,229 
Total  $4,372,963   $1,174,229 

 

The following table presents a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the Debenture measured at fair value on a recurring basis that uses significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) and the related expenses and losses recorded in the consolidated statement of operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

 

      
Fair Value, December 31, 2022  $- 
Issuance of convertible debenture   2,825,771 
Accretion for discount for warrants   244,629 
Accretion for discount for OID   83,333 
Interest expense   216,987 
Change in fair value   1,002,243 
Fair Value, September 30, 2023  $4,372,963 

 

The fair value of the Debenture was determined using a Monte Carlo Simulation (“MCS”) which incorporates the probability and timing of the consummation of a Fundamental Transaction event and conversion of the Debenture as of the valuation date.

 

The MCS implied a discount rate at issuance that resulted in a total value to the debenture and warrants that equated to the transaction proceeds. This discount rate was 75.28% at issuance and was calibrated to the September 30, 2023 valuation date by comparing the B rated commercial paper credit spread at both dates. B spreads as follows:

 

      
Issuance February 14, 2023   4.13%
Fair Value September 30, 2023   2.81%

 

On September 30, 2023, the Company valued the Debenture using a Monte Carlo Simulation model using the value of the underlying stock price of $1.60, exercise price of $8.75, expected dividend rate of 0%, risk-free interest rate of 4.83% and volatility of 66.3%. The Company estimated the term of the warrant to be 2.38 years.

In conjunction with the Convertible Debenture and Warrant issuance on February 14, 2023, 266,667 warrants that were previously issued to Alpha on November 19, 2021 were revalued on February 14, 2023, reducing the exercise price from $45.00 per warrant share to $0.60 per warrant share. The Company performed a Black Scholes model for the re-pricing of the warrants using the value of the underlying stock price of $5.10 stock price, exercise price of $0.60, expected dividend rate of 0%, risk-free interest rate of 4.04% and volatility of 52.57% and remaining term of 2.9 years. These same assumptions were applied to the Warrant as discussed in Note 8. The value allocated to the warrants on November 19, 2021 was $11,435 and recorded in Additional Paid-In Capital. The fair value of the re-priced warrants on February 15, 2023 was $1,218,205, an increase of $1,206,771. The incremental value of the warrants is also recorded in Additional Paid-In Capital as of September 30, 2023 as a deemed dividend.

 

On June 6, 2023, an investor exercised 125,359 warrants via a cashless exercise for 121,479 ordinary shares.

Note 12 - Stock Compensation

 

Option awards are generally granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s ordinary shares at the date of grant; those options generally vest based on three years of continuous service and have ten-year contractual terms. Certain option and share awards provide for accelerated vesting if there is a change in control, as defined in the plans.

 

The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using a Black Scholes option-pricing model. The Company uses historical option exercise and termination data to estimate the term the options are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The expected dividend yield is calculated using historical dividend amounts and the stock price at the option issue date. The expected volatility is determined using the volatility of peer companies. The Company’s underlying stock has been publicly traded since the date of the MTS Merger. Subsequent to the MTS Merger, option grants made under the SharpLink Inc. 2021 Plan utilized the publicly traded stock price of the Company on the day of the option award. All option grants made under the SharpLink, Inc. 2020 Stock Incentive Plan were prior to the MTS Merger. The underlying SharpLink, Inc. stock under that plan was not publicly traded but was estimated on the date of the grants using valuation methods that consider valuations from recent equity financings as well as future planned transactions. All option grants made under the SportsHub Games Network Inc. 2018 Incentive Plan were prior to the SportsHub Acquisition. The underlying SportsHub stock under that plan was not publicly traded but was estimated on the date of the grants using valuation methods that consider valuations from recent equity financings as well as future planned transactions.

 

The fair value of each stock option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

Operating Segments

Note 13 - Operating Segments

 

The Company has four operating segments: Affiliate Marketing Services – United States, Affiliate Marketing Services – International, Sports Gaming Client Services and SportsHub Games Network. Each operating segment is also a reportable segment. The Enterprise Telecom Expense Management (“Enterprise TEM”) business unit is reflected in discontinued operations (see Note 16). The Enterprise TEM and Affiliate Marketing Services – International segments are a result of the MTS Merger and FourCubed acquisition, respectively, in 2021. The Enterprise TEM segment will not be presented going forward due to its sale on December 31, 2022.

 

The Affiliate Marketing Services – United States segment operates a performance marketing platform which owns and operates state-specific web domains designed to attract, acquire and drive local sports betting and casino traffic directly to the Company’s sportsbook and casino partners which are licensed to operate in each respective state. The Company earns a commission from sportsbooks and casino operators on new depositors directed to them via our proprietary D2P websites in America. In addition, this segment provides sports betting data (e.g., betting lines) to sports media publishers in exchange for a fixed fee.

 

The Affiliate Marketing Services – International segment is an iGaming and affiliate marketing network, focused on delivering quality traffic and player acquisitions, retention and conversions to global iGaming operator partners worldwide in exchange for a commission (cost per acquisition or portion of net gaming revenues) paid to the Company by the partners for the new players referred to them.

 

The Sports Gaming Client Services segment provides its clients with development, hosting, operations, maintenance, and service of free-to-play games and contests. These relationships can be either software-as-service (“SaaS”) arrangements that are hosted by SharpLink and accessed through its clients’ websites or other electronic media; or software licenses that allow the client to take the software on premise.

 

The SportsHub Games Network segment owns and operates a variety of real-money fantasy sports and sports simulation games and mobile apps on its platform; and is licensed or authorized to operate in every state in the United States where fantasy sports play is legal and in which SportsHub has elected to operate based on the financial viability of operating there.

 

The Enterprise TEM segment is a global provider of solutions for telecommunications expense management, enterprise mobility management, call usage and accounting software. The segment’s TEM solutions allow enterprises and organizations to make smarter choices with their telecommunications spending at each stage of the service lifecycle, including allocation of cost, proactive budget control, fraud detection, processing of payments and spending forecasting. The Enterprise TEM segment is reflected as discontinued operations in 2023 and 2022 and was sold on December 31, 2022. See Note 16.

 

Any intercompany revenues or expenses are eliminated in consolidation.

 

A measure of segment assets and liabilities has not been currently provided to the Company’s chief operating decision maker and is therefore not presented below.

 

Summarized financial information for the Company’s reportable segments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 are shown below:

The Company’s license contracts contain promises to transfer multiple products to the customer. Judgment is required to determine whether each product is considered to be a distinct performance obligation that should be accounted for separately under the contract. We have elected to utilize the “right to invoice” practical expedient under ASC 606 which allows us to recognize revenue for our performance under the contract for the value which we have provided to the customer during a period of time in our contract with them.

 

Determining whether licenses are distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately, or not distinct and thus accounted for together, requires significant judgment. In some arrangements, such as the Company’s license arrangements, the Company has concluded that the individual licenses are distinct from each other. In others, like the Company’s SaaS arrangements, the software development and final product are not distinct from each other because they are highly integrated and therefore the Company has concluded that these promised goods are a single, combined performance obligation.

 

The Company is required to estimate the total consideration expected to be received from contracts with customers. In certain circumstances, the consideration expected to be received is fixed based on the specific terms of the contract or based on the Company’s expectations of the term of the contract. The Company has not experienced significant returns from or refunds to customers. These estimates require significant judgment and the change in these estimates could have an effect on its results of operations during the periods involved.

 

The Company follows a five-step model to assess each sale to a customer; identify the legally binding contract, identify the performance obligations, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price, and determine whether revenue will be recognized at a point in time or over time. Revenue recognized point in time and over time is presented by period below:

Total  $285,004   $2,524,547   $2,130,713   $-   $4,940,264 

 

The Company’s assets and liabilities related to its contracts with customers were as follows:

 

   September 30,
2023
   December 31,
2022
 
         
Accounts receivable  $1,394,340   $776,530 
Unbilled revenue   128,879    47,000 
Contract assets   99,410    219,116 
Contract liabilities   (8,448,201)   (2,166,451)

 

The timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers and these timing differences result in contract advanced billings on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. The Company has an enforceable right to payment upon invoicing and records contract liabilities when revenue is recognized subsequent to invoicing. The Company recognized unbilled revenue when revenue is recognized prior to invoicing.

 

The Company recognized contract assets related to direct costs incurred to fulfil the contracts. These costs are primarily labor costs associated with the development of the software. The Company defers these costs and amortizes them into cost of revenues over the period revenues are recognized.

 

The activity in the contract assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 is as follows:

 

   Amount 
Balance as of December 31, 2022  $219,116 
Labor costs expensed   (577,956)
Labor costs deferred   458,250 
Balance as of September 30, 2023  $99,410 

 

 

The Company recognizes contract liabilities for cash received from its users prior to recognition of revenue to fulfil its contracts. The payments received are primarily from the Company’s operation of its own online gaming business. The Company defers the revenue and recognizes it throughout the online game’s respective season.

 

The activity in the contract liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 is as follows:

 

   Amount 
Balance as of December 31, 2022  $(2,166,451)
Revenue recognized or reclassified   10,374,078 
Deferred revenue   (16,655,828)
Balance as of September 30, 2023  $(8,448,201)

 

All contract liabilities at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were recognized as revenue or expected to be recognized within the next fiscal year. All other activity in contract liabilities is due to the timing of invoices in relation to the timing of revenue as described above.

 

Contracted but unsatisfied performance obligations were approximately $410,110   and $850,000 as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, of which the Company expects to recognize the entire amount in revenue over the next year.

 

Payment terms and conditions vary by contract type, although terms generally include a requirement of payment within 30 days. In instances where the timing of revenue recognition differs from the timing of invoicing, the Company has determined that its contracts generally do not include a significant financing component. The primary purpose of invoicing terms is to provide customers with simplified and predictable ways of purchasing the Company’s products and services, and not to facilitate financing arrangements.

 

The Company had three customers that accounted for approximately 36% of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. There was $451,035 due from these customers at September 30, 2023.

 

The Company had three customers that accounted for approximately 59% of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. There was $322,085 due from these customers at September 30, 2022.

Discontinued Operations

Note 16 – Discontinued Operations

 

In accordance with ASC 205-20 Presentation of Financial Statements: Discontinued Operations, a disposal of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity is required to be reported as discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major impact on an entity’s operations and financial results when the components of an entity meets the criteria in ASC paragraph 205-20-45-10. In the period in which the component meets the held for sale or discontinued operations criteria the major assets, other assets, current liabilities and non-current liabilities shall be reported as a component of total assets and liabilities separate from those balances of the continuing operations. At the same time, the results of all discontinued operations, less applicable income taxes (benefit), shall be reported as components of net income (loss) separate from the income (loss) of continuing operations.

 

In June 2022, the Company’s board of directors authorized management to enter into negotiations to sell MTS. The Company negotiated a Share and Asset Purchase Agreement which was closed on December 31, 2022. The majority of the assets of the primary reporting unit within MTS were sold. The assets and liabilities remaining post transaction are in the process of winding down subsequent to the year ended December 31, 2022. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities of the MTS business are separately reported as assets and liabilities from discontinued operations as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The results of operations and cash flows of MTS for all periods are separately reported as discontinued operations.

 

 

Prior to the sale of MTS on December 31, 2022, the Enterprise TEM operating segment’s performance obligations are satisfied either overtime (managed services and maintenance) or at a point in time (software licenses). Professional services rendered after implementation are recognized as performed. Software license revenue is recognized when the customer has access to the license and the right to use and benefit from the license. Many of the Enterprise TEM operating segment’s agreements include software license bundled with maintenance and supports. The Company allocates the transaction price for each contract to each performance obligation identified in the contract based on the relative standalone selling price (SSP). The Company determines SSP for the purposes of allocating the transaction price to each performance obligation by considering several external and internal factors including, but not limited to, transactions where the specific element sold separately, historical actual pricing practices in accordance with ASC 606, Revenues from Contracts with Customers. The determination of SSP requires the exercise of judgement. For maintenance and support, the Company determines the SSP based on the price at which the Company sells a renewal contract.

Pending Domestication Merger

 

On June 14, 2023, the Company (or “SharpLink Israel”), SharpLink Gaming, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of SharpLink Israel (“SharpLink US”), and SharpLink Merger Sub Ltd., an Israeli company and a wholly owned subsidiary of SharpLink US (“Domestication Merger Sub”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (as amended July 24, 2023, the “Domestication Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which Domestication Merger Sub will be merged with and into SharpLink Israel, with SharpLink Israel being the surviving entity and continuing as a wholly  owned subsidiary of SharpLink US (the “Domestication Merger”).

 

Under the Domestication Merger Agreement, SharpLink Israel will become a wholly owned subsidiary of a Delaware corporation by the Domestication Merger Sub merging with and into SharpLink Israel, with SharpLink Israel surviving the Domestication Merger and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of SharpLink US. In connection with the Domestication Merger, all SharpLink Israel ordinary shares, par value NIS 0.60 per share (the “SharpLink Israel Shares”), outstanding immediately prior to the Domestication Merger will convert, on a one-for-one basis, into the right to receive, and become exchangeable for, shares of common stock of SharpLink US, par value $0.0001 per share (the “SharpLink US Common Stock”), and all preferred shares, options and warrants of SharpLink Israel outstanding immediately prior to the Domestication Merger will be converted into or exchanged for equivalent securities of SharpLink US. The Debenture issued to Alpha on February 15, 2023, convertible into SharpLink Israel Shares, will be convertible into shares of SharpLink US Common Stock at the same price and on the same other terms and any interest paid thereunder in shares will be paid in SharpLink US Common Stock. By virtue of the Domestication Merger, all of the SharpLink Israel Shares and SharpLink Israel Preferred Shares shall represent the right to receive the applicable SharpLink US Common Stock and Preferred Stock, shall be deemed to have been transferred to SharpLink US in exchange for the right to receive such applicable SharpLink US Common Stock and Preferred Stock, and each holder of a certificate or of evidence of shares in book-entry account, representing any certificated or non-certificated SharpLink Israel Shares or SharpLink Israel Preferred Shares, shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the applicable SharpLink US Common Stock and Preferred Stock. 

 

 

The proxy statement/registration statement on Form S-4 (file number: 333-272655), as amended, was originally filed with the SEC by SharpLink Israel and SharpLink US on June 15, 2023, and declared effective by the SEC on October 23, 2023. SharpLink Israel’s Board of Directors has set October 30, 2023 as the record date for shareholders to vote, by proxy or in person, on approving and adopting the Domestication Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated therein at an Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders that will be held on November 29, 2023 at 11:00 A.M. Central time at the Company’s corporate office located at 333 Washington Avenue North, Suite 104, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55401.

 

Change in Share Capital

 

On October 24, 2023, the Company held an Extraordinary General Meeting of Shareholders (the “Meeting”) at which shareholders approved the adoption of an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated articles of association to increase authorized share capital of the Company from 9,290,000 Ordinary Shares, nominal value NIS 0.60 per share, to 100,000,000 Ordinary Shares, nominal value NIS 0.60 per share and a corresponding amendment to the Company’s memorandum of association.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging— Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for convertible debt and convertible preferred stock by removing the requirements to separately present certain conversion features in equity. In addition, the amendments in the ASU also simplify the guidance in ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging: Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity, by removing certain criteria that must be satisfied in order to classify a contract as equity, which is expected to decrease the number of freestanding instruments and embedded derivatives accounted for as assets or liabilities. Finally, the amendments revise the guidance on calculating earnings per share, requiring use of the if-converted method for all convertible instruments and rescinding an entity’s ability to rebut the presumption of share settlement for instruments that may be settled in cash or other assets. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 on January 1, 2023 and was applied to the Company’s accounting for its convertible debenture and warrants (see Note 8).

 

In June 2016 and subsequently amended in March 2022, the FASB issued ASC 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurements of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASC 326”), which replaces the existing incurred loss model with a current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model that requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The Company would be required to use a forward-looking CECL model for accounts receivables, guarantees and other financial instruments. The Company adopted ASC 326 on January 1, 2023 and ASC 326 did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements as the Company has not had any historical credit losses.
