NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(in thousands, except shares and per share amounts)
(unaudited)
NOTE 1: NATURE OF ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS
Unless the context otherwise indicates, references in these Notes to the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements to “we,” “us,” “our,” “Creative Realities” and “the Company” refer to Creative Realities, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

("Allure), a Georgia corporation, Creative Realities Canada, Inc., a Canadian corporation, and Reflect Systems, Inc. ("Reflect"), a Delaware corporation.
Reverse stock split
On March 23, 2023, the Company filed Articles of Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Minnesota to effectuate, effective March 27, 2023, a 1-for-
As a result of the reverse stock split, effective 12:01 am on March 27, 2023, every three shares of common stock then-issued and outstanding automatically combined into one share of common stock, with no change in par value per share. No fractional shares were outstanding following the reverse stock split and any fractional shares resulting from the reverse split were rounded up to the nearest whole share of common stock. In connection with the reverse stock split, the total number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance was reduced from
Effective as of the same time as the reverse stock split, the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the Company's equity compensation plans were reduced in proportion to the reverse stock split. The reverse stock split also resulted in reductions in the number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercising or vesting of equity awards in proportion to the reverse stock split and proportionate increases in exercise price or share-based performance criteria, if any, applicable to such awards. Similarly, the number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding warrants were reduced in proportion to the reverse stock split, and the exercise prices of outstanding warrants were proportionately increased.
Public Offering
On August 17, 2023, the Company priced a "reasonable best efforts" public offering for the sale by the Company of an aggregate of
Liquidity and Financial Condition
In accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) (“ASU 205-40”), the Company has evaluated whether there are certain conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are issued.
At September 30, 2023, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $
Management plans to control resource allocation with respect to new opportunities, implement more aggressive customer deposit protocols, transition portions of its workforce to just-in-time models, and implement other cost cutting initiatives to align cash spend with revenue production to ensure adequate debt servicing; however the supplemental plans have not been fully implemented and the level of improvement to be achieved is uncertain. As a result, the Company has concluded that management's plans do not alleviate substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A summary of the significant accounting policies consistently applied in the preparation of the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements follows:
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the applicable instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X and include all of the information and disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial reporting. These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company and related footnotes for the year ended December 31, 2022, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2023.
The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for a full year. Management believes the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring items, considered necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods presented.
2. Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
Credit Losses. In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses, which requires entities to estimate expected lifetime credit losses on financial assets and provide expanded disclosures. This ASU replaced the incurred loss methodology with one that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. We adopted ASU No. 2016-13 on January 1, 2023. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, as the Company's primary financial assets are its trade accounts receivable, which are short-term financings under industry standard credit and trade terms.
Debt. In August 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 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): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity (ASU 2020-06), which simplifies the accounting for convertible instruments by reducing the number of accounting models available for convertible debt instruments. This guidance also eliminates the treasury stock method to calculate diluted earnings per share for convertible instruments and requires the use of the if-converted method. This guidance will be effective for us in the first quarter of 2024 on a full or modified retrospective basis, with early adoption permitted. We do not intend to adopt this standard early, nor do we expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
3. Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, applying the five-step model.
If an arrangement involves multiple performance obligations, the obligations are analyzed to determine the separate units of accounting, whether the obligations have value on a standalone basis and whether there is objective and reliable evidence of their standalone selling price. The total contract transaction price is allocated to the identified performance obligations based upon the relative standalone selling prices of the performance obligations. The standalone selling price is based on an observable price for services sold to other comparable customers, when available, or an estimated selling price using a cost plus margin approach.
The Company estimates the amount of total contract consideration it expects to receive for variable arrangements by determining the most likely amount it expects to earn from the arrangement based on the expected quantities of services it expects to provide and the contractual pricing based on those quantities. The Company only includes some or a portion of variable consideration in the transaction price when it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is subsequently resolved. The Company considers the sensitivity of the estimate, its relationship and experience with the client and variable services being performed, the range of possible revenue amounts and the magnitude of the variable consideration to the overall arrangement. The Company receives variable consideration in very few instances.
Revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services under the terms of a contract and is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring goods or providing services. The Company does not have any material extended payment terms as payment is due at or shortly after the time of the sale, ranging between thirty and ninety days. Observable prices are used to determine the standalone selling price of separate performance obligations or a cost plus margin approach when one is not available. Sales, value-added and other taxes collected concurrently with revenue producing activities are excluded from revenue.
The Company recognizes contract assets or unbilled receivables related to revenue recognized for services completed but not yet invoiced to the clients. A contract liability is recognized as deferred revenue when the Company invoices clients in advance of performing the related services under the terms of a contract. Deferred revenue is recognized as revenue when the Company has satisfied the related performance obligation.
The Company uses the practical expedient for recording an immediate expense for incremental costs of obtaining contracts, including certain design/engineering services, commissions, incentives, and payroll taxes, as these incremental and recoverable costs have terms that do not exceed one year.
4. Allowance for Credit Losses
The allowance for credit losses is the Company's best estimate of the amount of expected lifetime credit losses in the Company's accounts receivable. The Company regularly reviews the adequacy of its allowance for credit losses. The Company estimates losses over the contractual life using assumptions to capture the risk of loss, even if remote, based principally on how long a receivable has been outstanding. Account balances are charged off against the allowance for credit losses after all reasonable means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. Other factors considered include historical write-off experience, current economic conditions, customer credit, and past transaction history with the customer. The allowance for credit losses is included in accounts receivable, net in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The Company had the following activity for its allowance for credit losses from December 31, 2022 to September 30, 2023:
| Balance as of December 31, 2022 | $ | |||
| Amounts accrued | ||||
| Write-offs charged against the allowance | ( | ) | ||
| Balance as of September 30, 2023 | $ |
5. Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, determined by the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method, and consist of the following:
| September 30, | December 31, | |||||||
| 2023 | 2022 | |||||||

| Work-in-process | ||||||||
| Total inventories | $ | $ | ||||||
The reserve for obsolete inventory at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $
6. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
We review the carrying value of all long-lived assets, including property and equipment, for impairment in accordance with ASC 360, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. Under ASC 360, impairment losses are recorded whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable.
If the impairment tests indicate that the carrying value of the asset is greater than the expected undiscounted cash flows to be generated by such asset, an impairment loss would be recognized. The impairment loss is determined as the amount by which the carrying value of such asset exceeds its fair value. We generally measure fair value by considering sale prices for similar assets or by discounting estimated future cash flows from such assets using an appropriate discount rate. Assets to be disposed of are carried at the lower of their carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. Considerable management judgment is necessary to estimate the fair value of assets, and accordingly, actual results could vary significantly from such estimates.
7. Basic and Diluted (Loss)/Earnings per Common Share
Basic and diluted (loss)/earnings per common share for all periods presented is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Basic weighted average shares outstanding includes only outstanding common shares. Diluted weighted average shares outstanding includes outstanding common shares and potential dilutive common shares outstanding in accordance with the treasury stock method.
Shares reserved for outstanding stock options, including stock options with performance restricted vesting, and warrants totaling approximately
8. Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes are recognized in the financial statements for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates. Temporary differences arise from a number of matters including, but not limited to, net operating losses, differences in basis of intangibles, stock-based compensation, reserves for uncollectible accounts receivable and inventory, differences in depreciation methods, and accrued expenses. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions utilizing an established recognition threshold and measurement attributes for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. We had
9. Goodwill and Intangible Assets
We follow the provisions of ASC 350, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Pursuant to ASC 350, goodwill acquired in a purchase business combination is not amortized, but instead tested for impairment at least annually. The Company uses an annual measurement date of September 30 to assess impairment of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, or as indicators are identified.
Definite-lived intangible assets are amortized straight-line in accordance with their identified useful lives.
10. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Our significant estimates include: contingent purchase consideration valuation, allowance for credit losses, valuation allowances related to deferred taxes, the fair value of acquired assets and liabilities, the fair value of liabilities reliant upon the appraised fair value of the Company, valuation of stock-based compensation awards and other assumptions and estimates used to evaluate the recoverability of long-lived assets, goodwill and other intangible assets and the related amortization methods and periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
11. Business Combinations
Accounting for acquisitions requires us to recognize separately from goodwill the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed at their acquisition date fair values. Goodwill as of the acquisition date is measured as the excess of consideration transferred over the net acquisition date fair values of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. While we use our best estimates and assumptions to accurately value assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date as well as contingent consideration, where applicable, our estimates are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. As a result, during the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date, we may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period or final determination of the values of assets acquired or liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, any subsequent adjustments are recorded to our consolidated statements of operations.
12. Contingent Consideration
The Company has contingent consideration arrangements related to certain acquisitions to potentially pay additional cash amounts in future periods based on the lack of achievement of certain share price performance goals of our common stock. Such contingent consideration arrangements are recorded at fair value and are classified as liabilities on the acquisition date and are remeasured at each reporting period in accordance with ASC 805-30-35-1 using a Monte Carlo simulation model.
NOTE 3: FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
We measure certain financial assets, including cash equivalents, at fair value on a recurring basis. In accordance with ASC 820-10-30, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, ASC 820-10-35 establishes a three-level hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The three hierarchy levels are defined as follows:
Level 1 — Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.
Level 2 — Valuations based on observable inputs (other than Level 1 prices), such as quoted prices for similar assets at the measurement date; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 — Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and involve management judgment and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participants and pricing.
The calculation of the fair value of the contingent consideration contains inputs which are unobservable and involve management judgment and are considered Level 3 estimates. Additionally, the separately identifiable intangible assets rely on a discounted cash flow model which utilizes inputs including the calculation of the weighted average cost of capital and management’s forecast of future financial performance which are unobservable and involve management judgment and are considered Level 3 estimates.
The calculation of the weighted average cost of capital and management’s forecast of future financial performance utilized within our discounted cash flow model for the impairment of goodwill contains inputs which are unobservable and involve management judgment and are considered Level 3 estimates.
NOTE 4: REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company applies ASC 606 for revenue recognition. The following table disaggregates the Company’s revenue by major source for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022:

System hardware sales
System hardware revenue is recognized generally upon shipment of the product or customer acceptance depending upon contractual arrangements with the customer in instances in which the sale of hardware is the sole performance obligation. Shipping charges billed to customers are included in hardware sales and the related shipping costs are included in hardware cost of sales. The cost of freight and shipping to the customer is recognized in cost of sales at the time of transfer of control to the customer. System hardware revenues are classified as “Hardware” within our disaggregated revenue.
Installation services
The Company performs outsourced installation services for customers and recognizes revenue upon completion of the installations. Installation services also includes engineering services performed as part of an installation project.
When system hardware sales include installation services to be performed by the Company, the goods and services in the contract are not distinct, so the arrangement is accounted for as a single performance obligation. Our customers control the work-in-process and can make changes to the design specifications over the contract term. Revenues are recognized over time as the installation services are completed based on the relative portion of labor hours completed as a percentage of the budgeted hours for the installation. Installation services revenues are classified as “Installation Services” within our disaggregated revenue.
Software design and development services
Software and software license sales are revenue when a fixed fee order has been received and delivery has occurred to the customer. Revenue is recognized generally upon customer acceptance (point-in-time) of the software product and verification that it meets the required specifications. Software is delivered to customers electronically. Software design and development revenues are classified as “Software Development Services” within our disaggregated revenue.
Software as a service
Software as a service includes revenue from software licensing and delivery in which software is licensed on a subscription basis and is centrally hosted by the Company. These services often include software updates which provide customers with rights to unspecified software product upgrades and maintenance releases and patches released during the term of the support period. Contracts for these services are generally
Maintenance and support services
The Company sells support services which include access to technical support personnel for software and hardware troubleshooting. The Company offers a hosting service through our network operations center, or NOC, allowing the ability to monitor and support its customers’ networks 7 days a week, 24 hours a day. These contracts are generally
Maintenance and support fees are based on the level of service provided to end customers, which can range from monitoring the health of a customer’s network to supporting a sophisticated web-portal to managing the end-to-end hardware and software of a digital marketing system. These agreements are renewable by the customer. Rates for maintenance and support, including subsequent renewal rates, are typically established based upon a fee per location, per device, or a specified percentage of net software license fees as set forth in the arrangement. These contracts are generally 12-36 months in length. Revenue is recognized ratably and evenly over the service period.
The Company also performs time and materials-based maintenance and repair work for customers. Revenue is recognized at a point in time when the performance obligation has been fully satisfied.
Media sales
Media revenues are derived from selling (i) sponsorship packages, including mobile takeover or physical presence, or (ii) advertising space to customers on digital displays or other outdoor structures, each within physical venues. We generally do not own the physical structures on which we display advertising for our customers but instead sell advertising or sponsorship opportunities on behalf of our media network owners to our brand customers. Media revenue services are recognized either on a straight-line basis over the available hours of advertising during the contracted period, or at the time of an event in the case of sponsorships.
Our media revenue contracts with customers range from weeks to years and billing commences at the beginning of the contract term, with payment generally due within ninety (90) days of billing. For the majority of our contracts, transaction prices are explicitly stated. Any contracts with transaction prices that contain multiple performance obligations are allocated primarily based on a relative standalone selling price basis. Any deferred revenues primarily consist of revenues paid in advance of being earned.
On a contract-by-contract basis, we evaluate whether we should be considered the principal (i.e., report revenues on a gross basis) or an agent (i.e., report revenues on a net basis). We are considered the principal in our arrangements and report revenues on a gross basis, wherein the amounts billed to customers are recorded as revenues and amounts paid to network owners are recorded as expenses. We are considered the principal because we control the advertising space before and after the contract term, are primarily responsible to our customers, and have discretion in pricing. For revenues generated through the use of a subcontracted advertising agency, commissions are calculated based on a stated percentage of gross advertising revenue and reported in the Consolidated Statement of Operations within Sales and Marketing expenses.
NOTE 5: BUSINESS COMBINATION
On November 12, 2021, the Company and Reflect entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as amended on February 8, 2022 and February 11, 2023, the "Merger Agreement") pursuant to which a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Creative Realities, CRI Acquisition Corporation, would merge with and into Reflect, with Reflect surviving the merger and becoming our wholly owned subsidiary, which transaction is referred to herein as the “Merger.” On February 17, 2022, the parties consummated the Merger (the "Closing").
Reflect provides digital signage solutions, including software, strategic and media services to a wide range of companies across the retail, financial, hospitality and entertainment, healthcare, and employee communications industries in North America. Reflect offers digital signage platforms, including ReflectView, a platform used by companies to power hundreds of thousands of active digital displays. Through its strategic services, Reflect assists its customers with designing, deploying and optimizing their digital signage networks, and through its media services, Reflect assists customers with monetizing their digital advertising networks.
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, at the Closing, Reflect stockholders as of the effective time of the Merger collectively received from the Company, in the aggregate, the following Merger consideration: (i) $
The Company may exercise an extension option (the “Extension Option”) to extend the Guarantee Date by six (6) months, from February 17, 2025 to August 17, 2025, if (i) the Extension Threshold Price is greater than or equal to
In connection with the Merger, the Company adopted a Retention Bonus Plan and raised capital to, among other things, pay the cash portion of the Merger consideration. The Retention Bonus Plan is described below.
Retention Bonus Plan
On February 17, 2022, in connection with the Closing, the Company adopted a Retention Bonus Plan, pursuant to which the Company is required to pay to key members of Reflect’s management team an aggregate of $
Upon the resignation of a participant’s employment for “good reason,” or termination of the employment of a participant without “cause,” each as defined in the Retention Bonus Plan, the participant will be fully vested and will receive all cash and shares allocated to such participant under the Retention Bonus Plan. Any amounts unpaid by reason of a lapse in continuous employment or otherwise will be reallocated among the remaining Retention Bonus Plan participants.

The Company engaged a third-party valuation specialist to assist in the identification and calculation of the fair value of those separately identifiable intangible assets.
The Company completed its valuation procedures by asset utilizing the following approaches:
| ● | Customer relationship asset was estimated using the income approach through a discounted cash flow analysis wherein the cash flows will be based on estimates used to price the Merger. Discount rates were benchmarked with reference to the implied rate of return from the Company’s pricing model and the weighted average cost of capital. |
| ● | Trade name asset represents the Reflect brand name as marketed primarily as a full services digital software solution, marketed in numerous verticals with the exception of food service. The Company applied the income approach through an excess earnings analysis to determine the fair value of the trade name asset. The Company applied the income approach through a relief-from-royalty analysis to determine the fair value of this asset. |
| ● | The developed technology assets are primarily comprised of know-how and functionality embedded in Reflect’s proprietary content management applications, which drive currently marketed products and services. The Company applied the income approach through a relief-from-royalty analysis to determine the preliminary fair value of this asset. |
The Company is amortizing the identifiable intangible assets on a straight-line basis over the weighted average lives ranging from

The Company estimated the preliminary fair value of the acquired property and equipment using a combination of the cost and market approaches, depending on the component. The fair value of such property and equipment is $
The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the tangible net assets and identifiable intangible assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The factors contributing to the recognition of the amount of goodwill are based on several strategic and synergistic benefits that are expected to be realized from the Merger. These benefits include a comprehensive portfolio of iconic customer brands, complementary product offerings, enhanced national footprint, and attractive synergy opportunities and value creation. None of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired. Goodwill is subject to an impairment review at a reporting unit level, on an annual basis at September 30th each fiscal year, when an event occurs, or circumstances change that would indicate potential impairment. The Company has only one reporting unit, and therefore the entire goodwill is allocated to that reporting unit.
The Company assessed the carrying value of goodwill at the reporting unit level based on an estimate of the fair value of its reporting unit. Fair value of the reporting unit was estimated using both (1) a market approach, leveraging recent industry merger and acquisition activity as well as comparable public company information, and (2) a discounted cash flow analyses consisting of various assumptions, including expectations of future cash flows based on projections or forecasts derived from analysis of business prospects and economic or market trends that may occur, specifically, the Company gave significant consideration to actual historic financial results, including revenue growth rates in the current and preceding three years, further informed by known backlog and customer acquisitions. Based on the Company’s assessment, we determined that the fair value of our reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, and accordingly, the goodwill associated with the reporting unit is not considered to be impaired at September 30, 2023.
The Company recognizes that any changes in our actual fourth quarter 2023 or projected 2024 results could potentially have a material impact on our assessment of goodwill impairment. The Company will continue to monitor the actual performance of its operations against expectations and assess indicators of possible impairment. The valuation of goodwill and intangible assets is subject to a high degree of judgment, uncertainty and complexity. Should any indicators of impairment occur in subsequent periods, the Company will be required to perform an analysis in order to determine whether goodwill is impaired.
While our overall business performance has been consistent with our expectations, both before and after the acquisition of Reflect, we believe a significant portion of the decline in our market price relates primarily to both macroeconomic and recent capital transaction factors including: (1) market wide recessionary fears, (2) a lack of comprehension by the markets of the contingent consideration issued in the Merger with Reflect, and (3) the Company’s recent execution of a public offering of

In certain circumstances, upon a fundamental transaction of the Company (e.g., a disposal or sale of all or the greater part of the assets or undertaking of the Company, an amalgamation or merger with another company, or implementation of a scheme of arrangement), the holder of the Lender Warrant will have the right to require the Company to repurchase the Lender Warrant at its fair value using a Black Scholes option pricing formula; provided that such holder may not require the Company or its successor entity to repurchase the Lender Warrant for the Black Scholes value in connection with a fundamental transaction that is not approved by the Company’s Board of Directors, and therefore not within the Company’s control.
Effective June 30, 2022, the Company amended the terms of the Lender Warrant to remove the holder’s option to exercise such warrant on a cashless basis utilizing the VWAP of the Company’s common stock on the trading day immediately preceding the date of a notice of cashless exercise in certain circumstances, and remove the condition to exercising such warrant that the Company’s shareholders approve the exercise thereof (which had already been obtained). The amendments to the Lender Warrant also extend the term of such warrants for an additional one year, such that the Lender Warrant will expire on February 17, 2028. The foregoing amendments to the Lender Warrant caused such warrants to be accounted for as equity instruments in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

NOTE 10: INCOME TAXES
Our deferred tax assets are primarily related to net federal and state operating loss carryforwards (NOLs). We have substantial NOLs that are limited in usage by IRC Section 382. IRC Section 382 generally imposes an annual limitation on the amount of NOLs that may be used to offset taxable income when a corporation has undergone significant changes in stock ownership within a statutory testing period. We have performed a preliminary analysis of the annual NOL carryforwards and limitations that are available to be used against taxable income. Based on the history of losses of the Company, there continues to be a full valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets of the Company with a definite life.
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we reported tax (benefit) liability of (

On February 17, 2022, in connection with the Credit Agreement with Slipstream, the Company issued to Slipstream the Lender Warrants. The Lender Warrants are not exercisable until 180 days after the issuance date. The common shares underlying the Lender Warrants have not yet been registered for resale under the Securities Act of 1933, which provides Slipstream with an option for cashless exercise once the Lender Warrants becomes exercisable until such time as such registration occurs. The Lender Warrants expire years from the date of issuance. The Company evaluated the Lender Warrants and concluded that they do not meet the criteria to be classified within stockholders’ equity. The Lender Warrants include provisions which could result in a different settlement value, for the Lender Warrants depending on the registration status of the underlying shares. Because these conditions are not an input into the pricing of a fixed-for-fixed option on the Company’s ordinary shares, the Lender Warrants are not considered to be indexed to the Company’s own stock. The Company recorded the Lender Warrants as liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value, with subsequent changes in their respective fair values recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations at each reporting date. At the date of issuance, the Company performed a Black-Scholes valuation of the Lender Warrants, resulting in a fair value of $

As such, the Company reclassified the warrant liability from noncurrent liabilities to additional paid-in-capital as of June 30, 2022. These amounts are reflected as additional paid-in-capital in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2022.
