Reverse stock split
On May 28, 2021, stockholders of the Company holding a majority of the voting power of the Company entitled to vote approved by way of a written consent resolution the authorization of the Company's board of directors, in its sole and absolute discretion, and without further action of the stockholders, to file an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation to affect a reverse stock split of its common stock at a ratio in the range of 1-for-3 to 1-for-10 at any time prior to December 31, 2021. On June 10, 2021 the Company's board of directors set the reverse stock split ratio at 1-for-6 (the "Reverse Stock Split") and approved the Reverse Stock Split to be effectuated by the Company immediately following the effectiveness of the Company's registration statement related to the Company's IPO (as defined below), which became effective on June 28, 2021.
As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every six shares of the Company’s common stock was combined and converted into one share of the Company’s common stock as of June 28, 2021. In addition, the conversion rates of the Company's outstanding preferred stock and convertible notes and the exercise prices of the Company’s underlying common stock purchase warrants and stock options were proportionately adjusted at the applicable reverse stock split ratio in accordance with the terms of such instruments. Proportionate voting rights and other rights of common stockholders were not affected by the Reverse Stock Split, other than as a result of the rounding up of fractional shares. The Company issued 1,081 shares of common stock in lieu of fractional shares in connection with the Reverse Stock Split.
Accordingly, all share and per share amounts related to the Company's common stock and underlying derivatives for all periods presented in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto have been retroactively adjusted, where applicable, to reflect the Reverse Stock Split. The number of authorized shares and the par values of the common stock and convertible preferred stock were not adjusted as a result of the Reverse Stock Split.
Initial public offering
On June 28, 2021, the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 for its underwritten initial public offering (the “IPO”) was declared effective by the SEC, and the Company's common stock commenced trading on the NYSE American ("NYSE") on June 29, 2021. Upon commencement of the trading of the Company's common stock on the NYSE on June 29, 2021, all of the Company's outstanding convertible notes payable automatically converted into 4,732,420 shares of common stock.
In connection with the IPO, which closed on July 1, 2021, the Company issued and sold 8,000,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $5.00 per share. The total net proceeds from the IPO were approximately $36.2 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $2.8 million, and offering costs of approximately $1.0 million, of which $0.9 million was incurred as of June 30, 2021. The Company plans to use the net proceeds of this IPO for general corporate purposes. The Company may also elect to use proceeds from the IPO to acquire complimentary technologies, products or businesses, although the Company is not a party to any letters of intent or definitive agreements for any such acquisition. The Company granted the underwriters an option for a period of 30 days from June 29, 2021 to purchase up to 1,200,000 shares of common stock (the "Underwriter Shares") at the public offering price, less the underwriting discounts and commissions, to cover over-allotments, if any. No Underwriter Shares were purchased during the 30 day period.
Upon the consummation of the IPO on July 1, 2021, all shares of the Series F convertible preferred stock were converted into 5,764,533 shares of common stock. Additionally, since the anti-dilution provision of the Series F Warrants were no longer effective upon consummation of the Company's IPO, these warrants met the requirements to be considered equity and the outstanding Series F Warrants were reclassified as such.
The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet data is presented as if the IPO closed on June 30, 2021, by applying adjustments to the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. It reflects (1) the issuance of 8,000,000 shares of common stock for estimated net proceeds of $36.2 million (of which $0.9 million of offering costs were already included in the June 30, 2021 current asset balance), (2) the conversion of all Series F convertible preferred stock into an aggregate of 5,764,533 shares of common stock and (3) the reclassification of the Series F Warrant liability to equity:

Basis of presentation
The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reports and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). Results of operations for interim periods may not be representative of results to be expected for the full year.
Certain reclassifications have been made to conform the prior period data to the current presentation. These reclassifications had no material effect on the reported results.
These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes in the Company’s Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the SEC.
Consolidation
The financial statements are presented on a consolidated basis subsequent to acquisitions and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
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, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates these assumptions, judgments and estimates. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the financial position as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 and the cash flows for the periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.

New accounting standards
Recently adopted
ASU 2020-03 “Codification Improvements to Financial Instruments”
In March 2020, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2020-03, Codification Improvement to Financial Instruments. This ASU improves and clarifies various financial instruments topics, including the current expected credit losses standard issued in 2016. The ASU includes seven different issues that describe the areas of improvement and the related amendments to GAAP, intended to make the standards easier to understand and apply by eliminating inconsistencies and providing clarifications. The amendments have different effective dates, some of which were effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2021. The amendments adopted did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2019-12 “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes” (“ASU 2019-12”), which is intended to simplify various aspects related to accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. This new guidance was effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2021 and did not have an impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
Issued but not yet adopted
ASU 2016-13 “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326)”
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326),” a new standard to replace the incurred loss impairment methodology under current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates. The standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2023, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the new standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2020-04 “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting”
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. This ASU provides optional expedient and exceptions for applying generally accepted accounting principles to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. In response to the concerns about structural risks of interbank offered rates (IBORs) and, particularly, the risk of cessation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), regulators in several jurisdictions around the world have undertaken reference rate reform initiatives to identify alternative reference rates that are more observable or transaction based and less susceptible to manipulation. The ASU provides companies with optional guidance to ease the potential accounting burden associated with transitioning away from reference rates that are expected to be discontinued. The ASU can be adopted no later than December 1, 2022 with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
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), Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity
In August 2020, FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt - Debt with Conversion and other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity. This ASU reduces the number of accounting models for convertible instruments, amends diluted EPS calculations for convertible instruments, and amends the requirements for a contract (or embedded derivative) that is potentially settled in an entity’s own shares to be classified in equity. This standard is effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2024 with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
