CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
This report includes forward-looking statements that relate to future events or our future financial performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Words such as, but not limited to, “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “targets,” “likely,” “aim,” “will,” “would,” “could,” and similar expressions or phrases identify forward-looking statements. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operation, business strategy and financial needs.
You should read thoroughly this report and the documents that we refer to herein with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from and/or worse than what we expect. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements including those made in this report, in Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors also appear in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Some examples of risk factors which may affect our business are as follows:
● | our lack of significant revenues and history of losses, |
● | our ability to continue as a going concern, |
● | our ability to raise additional working capital as necessary, |
● | our ability to satisfy our obligations as they become due, |
● | the failure to successfully commercialize our product or sustain market acceptance, |
● | the reliance on third party agreements and relationships for development of our business, | |
● | our operations in foreign markets, | |
● | breaches of network or information technology services, |
● | the control exercised by our management, |
● | the impact of government regulation on our business, |
● | our ability to effectively compete, |
● | the possible inability to effectively protect our intellectual property, |
● | the lack of a public market for our securities and the impact of the penny stock rules on trading in our common stock should a public market ever be established, and | |
● | the impact of the Covid-19 Pandemic. |
Other sections of this report include additional factors which could adversely impact our business and financial performance. New risk factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for our management to predict all risk factors, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Except for our ongoing obligations to disclose material information under the Federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to release publicly any revisions to any forward-looking statements, to report events or to report the occurrence of unanticipated events. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this report, and you should not rely on these statements without also considering the risks and uncertainties associated with these statements and our business.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION
In the opinion of Management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which we considered as necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for future periods or the full year.
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ipsidy Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries MultiPay S.A.S., ID Global LATAM, IDGS S.A.S., ID Solutions, Inc., FIN Holdings Inc., Ipsidy Enterprises Limited, Cards Plus Pty Ltd. and Ipsidy Peru S.A.C. (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Going Concern
As of September 30, 2020, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $96.2 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 the Company earned revenue of approximately $1.6 million and incurred a loss from operations of approximately $7.2 million.
The reports of our independent registered public accounting firm on our consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 contained an explanatory paragraph regarding our ability to continue as a going concern based upon our net losses.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to meet its obligations and continue its operations for the next fiscal year. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon financial support from the Company’s current shareholders, the ability of the Company to obtain additional financing to continue operations, the Company’s ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations, successfully locating and negotiating with other business entities for potential acquisition and /or acquiring new clients to generate revenues and cash flows.
On February 14, 2020, the Company entered into Securities Purchase Agreements with several accredited investors (the “2020 Note Investors”) providing for the sale by the Company to the 2020 Note Investors of 15% Senior Secured Convertible Notes in the aggregate amount of $1,510,000 (the “2020 Notes”). In connection with this private offering, the Company paid Network 1 Financial Securities, Inc., a registered broker-dealer, a cash fee of approximately $104,800.
In May 2020, the Company received a loan of approximately $486,000 under the Paycheck Protection Program of the U.S. Small Business Association related to its U.S. operations. The Company anticipates subject to approval by the Small Business Administration, if certain requirements are met the loan proceeds may be forgiven. Any amounts not forgiven will be required to be repaid.
In June 2020, the Company entered into Subscription Agreements with two accredited investors (the “June 2020 Accredited Investors”) pursuant to which the June 2020 Accredited Investors purchased 3,441,558 shares of common stock at an average price of $0.06 cents per share for $200,000.
6
Additionally, on June 30, 2020, the Company entered into and consummated private transactions pursuant to which a portion of the Company’s warrants exercisable at various prices were exercised at an average exercise price of $0.06 per share for approximately $1,249,000. The Company received cash proceeds of $283,950 and a stock subscription receivable for $965,033 which was received in full by September 30, 2020.
Subsequent event
On October 30, 2020 and on November 6, 2020, Ipsidy Inc. entered into Securities Purchase Agreements with several accredited investors (the “October 2020 Accredited Investors”) pursuant to which the October 2020 Accredited Investors agreed to purchase an aggregate of 52,435,000 shares of the Company’s common stock together Warrants to acquire 26,217,500 shares of common stock for a term of five years at an exercise price of $0.15 per share for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $5.24 million. In connection with this private offering, the Company paid or will pay a registered broker-dealer, a cash fee of approximately $367,000 and issue the broker-dealer a common stock purchase warrant to acquire approximately 3.15 million shares of common stock of the Company exercisable for a term of five years at an exercise price of $0.15 per share.
There is no assurance that the Company will ever be profitable or be able to secure funding or generate sufficient revenues to sustain operations. As such, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Covid-19
A novel strain of coronavirus (“Covid-19”) emerged globally in December 2019 and has been declared a pandemic. The extent to which Covid-19 will impact our customers, business, results and financial condition will depend on current and future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time. The Company’s day-to-day operations beginning March 2020 have been impacted differently depending on geographic location and services that are being performed. The Cards Plus business located in South Africa did not have any operations in April 2020 and has had limitations on its operations starting in May 2020, as the Company is following the guidance and requirements of the South African government. Our operations in the United States and Colombia have suffered less immediate impact as most staff can work remotely and can continue to develop our product offerings.
That said we have seen our business opportunities develop more slowly as business partners and potential customers are dealing with Covid-19 issues, working remotely and these issues are causing delays in decision making and finalization of negotiations and agreements. However, the level of inquiries about our services has increased during the last three months, as our products are designed to serve an increasingly mobile economy and workforce.
Net Loss per Common Share
The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260, “Earnings per Share”. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including stock options, using the treasury stock method, and convertible notes and stock warrants, using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options, warrants and conversion of convertible notes. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. The following potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 because their effect was antidilutive:
Security | 2020 | 2019 | ||||||
Stock Options | 158,244,061 | 106,600,006 | ||||||
Warrants | 26,751,779 | 47,453,227 | ||||||
Total | 184,995,840 | 154,053,233 |

Inventories
Inventories of kiosks held by IDGS S.A.S are stated at the lower of cost (using the first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value. The kiosks provide electronic ticketing for transit systems. Inventory of plastic/ID cards, digital printing material, which are held by Cards Plus Pty Ltd., are at the lower of cost (using the average method) or market. The Plastic/ID cards and digital printing material are used to provide plastic loyal ID and other types of cards. Inventories at September 30, 2020 consist solely of the cards inventory. As of December 31, 2019, inventory consisted of kiosks that were not placed into service and were held for sale and cards inventory. Any adjustments to reduce the cost of inventories to their net realizable value are recognized in earnings in the current period. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had an inventory valuation allowance of approximately $236,000 to reflect net realizable value of the kiosks that are being held for sale and the Company believed no valuation allowance was necessary regarding the cards inventory. As of September 30, 2020, the Company did not believe a valuation allowance was necessary for the cards inventory.
Revenue Recognition
Below is the Company’s revenue recognition policy determined by revenue stream for its significant revenue generating activities during the period ended September 30, 2020.
Cards Plus - The Company recognizes revenue for the design and production of cards when products are shipped, or services have been performed due to the short-term nature of the contracts.
Payment Processing – The Company recognizes revenue for variable fees generated for payment processing solutions that are earned on a usage fee over time based on monthly transaction volumes or on a monthly flat fee rate. Additionally, the Company also sells certain equipment from time to time for which revenue is recognized upon delivery to the customer.
Identity Solutions Software – The Company recognizes revenue based on the identified performance obligations over the performance period for fixed consideration and for variable fees generated that are earned on a usage fee based over time based on monthly transaction volumes or on a monthly flat fee rate. The Company had a deferred revenue contract liability of approximately $388,000 and $425,000 as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 for certain revenue that will be earned in future periods. The majority of the $425,000 of deferred revenue contract liability as of December 31, 2019 was earned in the first three months of 2020. The $388,000 of deferred revenue contract liability as of September 30, 2020 will be earned over the ensuing three quarters. We have allocated the selling price in the contract to one customer which has multiple performance obligations based on the contract selling price that we believe represents a fair market price for the service rendered.
All contracts are reviewed for their respective performance obligations and related revenue and expense recognition implications. Certain of the revenues are derived from the identity services could include multiple performance obligations. A performance obligation under the revenue standard is defined as a promise to provide a “distinct” good or service to a customer. The Company has determined that one possible treatment under the standard is that these services will represent a stand-ready series of distinct daily services that are substantially the same, with the same pattern of transfer to the customer. Further, the Company has determined that the performance obligation to provide account access and facilitate transactions may meet the criteria for the “as invoiced” practical expedient, in that the Company has a right to consideration from a customer in an amount that corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the Company’s performance completed to date. As a result, the Company anticipates it may recognize revenue in the amount to which the Company has a right to invoice, based on completed performance at the relevant date. Additionally, the contracts could include implementation services, or support on an “as needed” basis and we will review each contract and determine whether such performance obligations are separate and distinct and apply the standard accordingly to the revenue and expense derived from or related to each such service.
Additionally, the Company capitalizes the incremental costs of acquiring and fulfilling a contract with a customer if the Company expects to recover those costs. The incremental costs of acquiring and fulfilling a contract are those that the Company incurs to acquire and fulfill a contract with a customer that it would not have incurred if the contract had not been acquired (for example, a sales commission or specific incremental costs associated with the contract).
8
The Company capitalizes the costs incurred to acquire and fulfill a contract only if those costs meet all the following criteria:
a. | The costs relate directly to a contract or to an anticipated contract that the Company can specifically identify. |
b. | The costs generate or enhance resources of the Company that will be used in satisfying (or in continuing to satisfy) performance obligations in the future. |
c. | The costs are expected to be recovered. |
The Company will capitalize contract acquisition and fulfillment costs related to signing or renewing contracts that meet the above criteria, which will be classified as contract cost assets in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Contract cost assets will be amortized using the straight-line method over the expected period of benefit beginning at the time revenue begins to be realized. The amortization of contract fulfillment cost assets associated with facilitating transactions will be recorded as cost of sales in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. The amortization of contract acquisition cost assets associated with sales commissions that qualify for capitalization will be recorded as general and administrative expense in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Revenue related to direct financing leases is outside the scope of Topic 606 and is recognized over the term of the lease using the effective interest method.

In January 2017, the Company issued a Senior Unsecured Note (“Note”) a face value of $3,000,000, payable two years from issuance, along with an aggregate of 4,500,000 shares of Common Stock, with a fair value of $1,147,500. The Company allocated the proceeds to the note payable and common stock based on their relative fair value and recorded a discount of $830,018 to be amortized into interest expense over the two-year term of the note. The Company also paid debt issuance costs consisting of a cash fee of $120,000 and 1,020,000 shares of common stock of the Company with a fair value of $306,000. On April 30, 2018, the Company and the Noteholder agreed to extend the due date of the note until April 30, 2020 for an extension fee of 1,500,000 shares of the Common Stock issued to the Noteholder.

The Company accounted for the Restated Stern Note as an extinguishment of the Note and recorded a charge of $985,000 included in Other expenses in accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.

NOTE 7 – CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE
On December 13, 2019, the Company entered into Securities Purchase Agreements with several accredited investors (the “8% Note Investors”) providing for the sale by the Company to the Investors of 8% Convertible Notes in the aggregate amount of $428,000 (the “8% Notes”). The 8% Notes were to mature on November 30, 2021 and were a general unsecured obligation of the Company. The Company can prepay all or a portion of the 8% Notes at any time. The Company shall pay any interest on the 8% Notes at the rate of 8.0% per annum payable at the earlier of the maturity date or conversion date, in cash or, at the holder’s option, shares of common stock of the Company. At the option of the 8% Note investors, all or a portion of the 8% Notes may be converted into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion price of $0.08 per share. If the holders of the 8% Notes owning outstanding 8.0% Notes representing in excess of half of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all 8% Notes provide notice to the Company of their intent to convert their 8% Notes, then all 8% Notes plus unpaid interest and other amounts owing to each of the holders shall be automatically converted.
In February 2020, the Company and the holders of the 8% Notes entered into an amendment agreement pursuant to which the principal and interest due under the 8% Notes will remain due and payable on the same terms as exist in the 8% Notes prior to modification, that the maturity shall be extended to the same maturity date as the 2020 Notes, namely February 28, 2022 and the 8% Notes became a secured obligation of the Company.
On February 14, 2020 the Company, entered into Securities Purchase Agreements with several accredited investors (the “2020 Note Investors”) providing for the sale by the Company to the 2020 Note Investors of 15% Senior Secured Convertible Notes in the aggregate amount of $1,510,000 (the “2020 Notes”). Philip D. Beck, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, invested $50,000 in consideration of a 2020 Note in the principal amount of $50,000 paid by a deduction from his salary. Theodore Stern, a director of the Company, invested $50,000 in consideration of a 2020 Note in the principal amount of $50,000. Herbert Selzer, a director of the Company invested $100,000 in consideration of a 2020 Note in the principal amount of $100,000. Mr. Selzer provided $50,000 on the closing date and provided the balance of the funding in April 2020.
The 2020 Notes mature February 28, 2022 and are a secured obligation of the Company. The Company can prepay all or a portion of the 2020 Notes at any time provided that such amount prepaid shall be equal to 150% of the principal due. The Company shall pay interest on the 2020 Notes at the rate of 15% per annum payable at the earlier of the maturity date or conversion date, in cash or, at the investor’s option, shares of common stock of the Company.
12
If the Company prepays all or a portion of the 2020 Note prior to the one-year anniversary of the 2020 Note issuance date (the (“2020 Note Anniversary”), then the Company will be required to pay interest on the principal prepaid or paid at maturity through the 2020 Note Anniversary. Further, upon maturity or in the event of default and/or bankruptcy of the 2020 Notes, the Company will be required to pay 150% of the principal due under the 2020 Notes.
At the option of the 2020 Note Investors, they may at any time convert the 2020 Notes. The number of shares delivered shall be equal to 150% of the amount of the principal converted divided by the conversion price of $0.20 per share. Following the 2020 Note Anniversary, the Company may require that the 2020 Note Investors convert all or a portion of the 2020 Notes, if the Company’s volume weighted average price for any preceding 20-day period is equal to or greater than $0.30.
The 2020 Note Investors are entitled to nominate, and the Company will not unreasonably reject the appointment of a new member to the Company’s Board of Directors.
The Company and FIN Holdings, Inc. and ID Solutions, Inc., two of the Company’s subsidiaries, entered into a security agreement with the 2020 Note Investors (“Security Agreement”), the holders of the 8% Notes and the Stern Trust, which is the holder of the Promissory Note in the principal amount of $2,000,000 (the “Stern Note”). The Security Agreement provides that until the principal and accrued but unpaid interest under the 2020 Notes, 8% Notes and Stern Note is paid in full or converted pursuant to their terms, the Company’s obligations under the 2020 Notes, 8% Notes and Stern Note will be secured by a lien on all assets of the Company. The security interest granted to the holders of the 2020 Notes, 8% Notes and Stern Note ranks pari passu. The Security Agreement permits sales of assets up to a value of $1,000,000 which proceeds may be used for working capital purposes and the secured parties will take such steps as may be reasonably necessary to release its security interest and enable such sales in such circumstances. Each of the secured parties appointed Mr. Stern and a third-party investor as joint collateral agents. Mr. Stern, a director of the Company, is the trustee of the Stern Trust.
Further, the Company and the Stern Trust entered an Amended and Restated Promissory Note (the “Restated Stern Note”) providing that the $2,000,000 principal of the Stern Note will be due and payable on the same terms (bearing interest at 15% per annum) and on the same maturity date as the 2020 Notes and that the interest due under the Stern Note as of January 31, 2020 in the amount of $662,000 will remain due and payable on the same terms as exist in the Stern Note prior to modification provided that the maturity of such interest shall be extended to the same maturity date as the 2020 Notes.
In connection with this private offering, the Company paid Network 1 Financial Securities, Inc., a registered broker-dealer, a cash fee of approximately $104,800.
In February 2020, the Company offered all warrant holders holding warrants to purchase shares of Company common stock issued in July 2015 (“2015 Warrants”) the right to extend the term of the 2015 Warrants for a period of two years, subject to an increase in the Exercise Price (as defined therein) to $0.06 per share, providing that such warrant holders invested a minimum $100,000 in the 2020 Note private offering. As a result, a portion of the 2015 Warrant holders participated in the 2020 Note offering and the Company extended the exercise period two years for the 2015 Warrants representing the right to acquire 6,380,000 shares of common stock. The fair market value of the modification of warrants extended was approximately $95,000. Vista Associates, L.P. (“Vista”) of which, Mr. Selzer, a director of the Company is the General Partner, held 2015 Warrants to acquire 880,000 shares of common stock, which were also extended as a result of his investment and in June 2020, Vista exercised its 2015 Warrants and converted into 880,000 shares of common stock.

NOTE 13- IMPAIRMENT LOSS
Goodwill
Goodwill is recorded when the purchase price paid for an acquisition exceeds the fair value of net identified tangible and intangible assets acquired. The Company performs an annual impairment test of goodwill and further periodic tests to the extent indicators of impairment develop between annual impairment tests. The Company’s impairment review process compares the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value, including the goodwill related to the reporting unit utilizing qualitative considerations. To determine the fair value of the reporting unit, the Company may use various approaches including an asset or cost approach, market approach or income approach or any combination thereof. These approaches may require the Company to make certain estimates and assumptions including future cash flows, revenue and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are reviewed each time the Company tests goodwill for impairment and are typically developed as part of the Company’s routine business planning and forecasting process. While the Company believes its estimates and assumptions are reasonable, variations from those estimates could produce materially different results. As a result of the current pandemic and its potential impact on future results, the Company updated its reporting unit projections, and it indicated a goodwill impairment at Cards Plus as the carrying value may not be recovered as revenue assumptions and related revenue were revised downward. The fair value of the reporting unit was determined using discounted cash flow as well as future realizable value. The goodwill impairment loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was approximately $1,035,000.
NOTE 14 – SEGMENT INFORMATION
General information
The segment and geographic information provided in the table below is being reported consistent with the Company’s method of internal reporting. Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available and which is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The CODM regularly reviews net revenue and gross profit by geographic regions. The Company’s products and services operate in two reportable segments; identity management and payment processing.
20
Information about revenue, profit/loss and assets
The CODM evaluates performance and allocates resources based on net revenue and operating results of the geographic region as the current operations of each geography are either primarily identity management or payment processing. Identity management revenue is generated in North America and Africa and payment processing revenue is earned in South America which are the three geographic regions of the Company. We have included the lease income in payment processing as the leases are related to unattended ticketing kiosks.
Long lived assets are in North America, South America and Africa. Most assets are intangible assets recorded from the acquisition of MultiPay (South America) in 2015 and FIN Holdings (North America and Africa) in 2016. Assets for North America, South America and Africa amounted to approximately $9.3 million, $0.3 million and $0.3 million.
Analysis of revenue by segment and geographic region and reconciliation to consolidated revenue, gross profit, and net loss are provided below. The Company has included in the schedule below an allocation of corporate overhead based on management’s estimate of resource requirements.

ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
Going concern
As of September 30, 2020, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $96.2 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 the Company earned revenue of approximately $1.6 million and incurred a loss from operations of approximately $7.2 million.
The reports of our independent registered public accounting firms on our consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 contained an explanatory paragraph regarding our ability to continue as a going concern based upon our net losses.
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to meet its obligations and continue its operations for the next fiscal year. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon financial support from the Company’s current shareholders, the ability of the Company to obtain additional equity financing to continue operations, the Company’s ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations, successfully locating and negotiating with other business entities for potential acquisition and /or acquiring new clients to generate revenues and cash flows.
There is no assurance that the Company will ever be profitable or be able to secure funding or generate sufficient revenues to sustain operations. As such, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Overview
Ipsidy Inc. (formerly known as ID Global Solutions Corporation) (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”, “we” or “our”) operates an Identity as a Service (IDaaS) platform that delivers a suite of secure, mobile, biometric identity solutions, available to any vertical, anywhere. In a world that is increasingly digital and mobile, our mission is to help our customers know with biometric certainty the identity of the people with whom they are engaging. We provide solutions to everyday problems: Who is applying for a loan? Who is accessing the computer system? Who is at the door?
Ipsidy provides secure, biometric identification, identity verification and electronic transaction authentication and processing services. We have developed an IDaaS platform for our customers, be they businesses, residences, governments, or other organizations, to enable their users to more easily verify and authenticate their identity through a mobile phone or portable device of their choosing (as opposed to dedicated hardware). Our system enables participants to consent to transactions using their biometric information with a digitally signed authentication response, including the underlying transaction data. In this way our systems can provide pre-transaction authentication of identity as well as embed each user’s identity attributes, within every electronic transaction message processed through our platform, or other electronic systems.
We believe that it is essential that businesses and consumers know who is on the other side of an electronic transaction and have an audit trail, proving that the identity of the other party was duly authenticated. Our solutions are intended to provide our customers with the next level of transaction security, control and certainty. Our platform uses biometric and multi-factor identity solutions, which are intended to support a wide variety of electronic transactions. We define “electronic transactions” in the broadest sense to include not only financial transactions (i.e. exchanges of value in all of their forms), and legal transactions (e.g. approving the release of personal or other confidential data), but also access control to both digital environments (e.g. accessing financial accounts, voting systems, email systems and controlling data network log-ins) and physical environments (e.g. entrances to offices, public buildings, data centers and other sensitive locations).
22
The Company’s products focus on the broad requirement for identity verification and authentication, and access and transaction controls and associated identity management needs. Organizations of all descriptions require cost-effective and secure mobile electronic transaction solutions for them and their customers. We aim to offer our customers solutions that can be integrated into each customer’s business and organizational operations in order to facilitate their use and enhance the end user customer experience.
Our digital mobile wallet applications, or electronic account holders are used to contain different services and accounts that can be easily added and enable users to conveniently and securely effect a variety of electronic transactions, using their identity. One example is for consumers and employees to use their mobile application to authenticate identity, in order to access secure digital, or physical environments. We have launched our integrated VerifiedTM solution with Datapro as an add-on to their online banking software.
ProofTM our mobile identity onboarding and verification application, establishes the trusted identity of users based on a variety of ground truth sources, such as chip based electronic machine readable travel documents, or eMRTDs, national IDs, drivers licenses, as well as by means of direct verification by national ID databases in Peru and in the future, South Africa. The application uses these sources to obtain trusted demographic information and the reference facial biometric images that are matched against the user’s captured live selfie. Proof enables the remote onboarding of people in services associated with Fintech, Telecom and other online services-based industries.
Our identity authentication solution, Verified by Ipsidy, can be delivered seamlessly via mobile web browser, by Ipsidy’s mobile application or into a customer’s mobile app, using our SDK’s. Verified helps our customers gain identity certainty of their users (customers and employees) who can conveniently and securely consent to a variety of electronic transactions, using their biometrics. For example, Datapro, a financial services banking platform, has integrated Verified to secure access to their online banking software. Ipsidy has also integrated its authentication services to allow trucking fleets and drivers to use their biometrics to securely open locks that safeguard valuable assets and physical environments.
The Company’s solutions for fingerprint-based identity management and electronic payment transaction processing have been in the market for several years. For example, in December 2017, we won an international competitive tender to provide our SearchTM Automated Fingerprint Identification de-duplication system (AFIS) to the Zimbabwe Electoral Commission, for them to ensure that no duplicate entries existed in the voter roll for the 2018 election. The AFIS system was delivered under tight deadlines and within budget, in order to enable the voter roll to be published and the election to occur as planned.
Management believes that some of the advantages of the Company’s IDaaS Platform approach are the ability to leverage the platform to support a variety of vertical markets including the identity solutions and transaction processing sectors and the adaptability of the platform to the requirements of new markets and new products requiring low cost, secure, and configurable mobile solutions. These vertical markets include but are not limited to banking and payment transactions, elections, schools, public transportation, government and enterprise security. At its core, the Company’s offering, combining its proprietary biometric technologies, with those acquired is intended to facilitate the processing of diverse electronic transactions, be they payments, votes, or physical or digital access, all of which can include identity verification, authentication and identity transaction recording. The Company continues to invest in developing, patenting and acquiring the various elements necessary to enhance the platform, which is intended to allow us to achieve our goals.
The Company was incorporated in the State of Delaware on September 21, 2011 and changed its name to Ipsidy Inc. on February 1, 2017, and our common stock is traded on the OTCQB U.S. Market under the trading symbol “IDTY”. Our corporate headquarters is located at 670 Long Beach Blvd., Long Beach, NY 11561 and our main phone number is (516) 274-8700. We maintain a website at www.ipsidy.com.

Adjusted EBITDA
This discussion includes information about Adjusted EBITDA that is not prepared in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and is not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. A reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure is included below.
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that represents GAAP net income (loss) adjusted to exclude (1) interest expense, (2) interest income, (3) provision for income taxes, (4) depreciation and amortization, (5) stock-based compensation expense (stock options and restricted stock) and (6) certain other items management believes affect the comparability of operating results.
Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA, when viewed with our results under GAAP and the accompanying reconciliations, provides useful information about our period-over-period results. Adjusted EBITDA is presented because management believes it provides additional information with respect to the performance of our fundamental business activities and is also frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of comparable companies. We also rely on Adjusted EBITDA as a primary measure to review and assess the operating performance of our company and our management, and it will be a focus as we invest in and grow the business. Additionally, we will continue to use Adjusted EBITDA in connection with our executive performance-based compensation in 2020.
Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation from, or as a substitute for, analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are:
● | Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; |
● | Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; |
● | Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements; |
● | Adjusted EBITDA does not include the impact of certain charges or gains resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations. |
Because of these limitations, adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA only as a supplement to our GAAP results.

Adjusted EBITDA loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to September 30, 2019 decreased by approximately $1.1 million due to a decrease in salary and technology expenditures.
Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020 and 2019
Revenues, net
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company had revenues of approximately $0.5 million and $1.6 million, respectively compared to $0.6 million and $1.9 million in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively. The decrease is principally due to the Covid-19 pandemic and its impact on revenue at Cards Plus.
Cost of sales
During the three months ended September 30, 2020, cost of sales was lower than the cost of sales in the three months ended June 30, 2019 due to lower revenue at Cards Plus. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, cost of sales was higher than the cost of sales in the nine months ended June 30,2019 principally due to lower margin revenue at Cards Plus in the first three months of 2020 offset by lower costs related to decreased revenue principally due to the pandemic.
General and administrative expenses
During the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to September 30, 2019, general and administrative expense decreased by $0.6 and $1.0 million, respectively in part due to lower stock compensation expense of $0.2 million and $0.3 million in the respective periods. The balance of the reduction is principally due to due to lower overall costs as a result of staff reductions and expense minimization.
Research and development expenses
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to September 30, 2019, research and development expenses were essentially flat as we continue to invest in our technology that will drive future revenue.
Impairment loss
During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recorded an impairment loss of approximately $1.0 million, associated with goodwill of one of its reporting units.
25
As a result of the current pandemic and its potential impact on future results, the Company updated its reporting unit projections, and it indicated a goodwill impairment as the carrying value may not be recovered as revenue assumptions and related revenue were revised downward. The fair value of the reporting unit was determined using discounted cash flow as well as future realizable value.
Depreciation and amortization expense
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to September 30, 2019, depreciation and amortization expense increased as a result of placing into service certain of the new product offerings.
Other Income (Expense)
During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recorded a charge of approximately $985,000 related to an extinguishment of a note payable and a charge of approximately $367,000 in connection with an inducement to certain warrant holders to exercise their outstanding warrants.
Interest expense
Interest expense increased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to September 30, 2019, principally due to the convertible debt offerings in December 2019 and February 2020 which increased level of debt outstanding as well as provided higher rates.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company has approximately $0.6 million of cash on hand and has a deficiency in working capital of approximately $2.0 million
Cash used in operating activities was approximately $3.1 million and $5.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 respectively. The decrease in cash used in operating activities is principally due to an increase in accrued salaries due to salary deferrals and lower overall operating expenses.
The Company expects incremental revenue and cash to be generated in the first quarter of 2021 and beyond from the delivery of software products to new customers across various geographies.
On February 14, 2020 the Company, entered into Securities Purchase Agreements with several accredited investors (the “2020 Note Investors”) providing for the sale by the Company to the 2020 Note Investors of 15% Senior Secured Convertible Notes in the aggregate amount of $1,510,000 (the “2020 Notes”). In connection with this private offering, the Company paid Network 1 Financial Securities, Inc., a registered broker-dealer, a cash fee of approximately $104,800.
In May 2020, the Company received a loan of approximately $485,000 under the Paycheck Protection Program of the U.S. Small Business Association related to its U.S. operations. The Company anticipates subject to approval by the Small Business Administration, if certain requirements are met the loan proceeds may be forgiven. Any amounts not forgiven will be required to be repaid.
In June 2020, the Company entered into Subscription Agreements with two accredited investors (the “June 2020 Accredited Investors”) pursuant to which the June 2020 Accredited Investors purchased 3,441,558 shares of common stock at an average price of $0.06 cents per share for $200,000.
Additionally, on June 30, 2020, Company entered into and consummated private transactions pursuant to which a portion of the Company’s warrants exercisable at various prices were exercised for cash at an average exercise price of $0.06 per share for approximately $1,249,000.
26
In 2020, the Company will continue to be opportunistic as well as judicious in raising additional funds to support its operations and investments as it creates a sustainable organization. There is no guarantee that such financing will be available or available on acceptable terms. In order to continue our operations through December 31, 2021 as contemplated in our current business plan, we expect that we will need to raise approximately $7.5 to $10.0 million.
The Company raised approximately $2.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2019, through the sale of common stock.
There is no guarantee that our current business plan will not change and, as a result of such change, that we will need additional capital to implement such business plan.
Subsequent Event
On October 30, 2020 and on November 6, 2020, Ipsidy Inc. entered into Securities Purchase Agreements with several accredited investors (the “October 2020 Accredited Investors”) pursuant to which the October 2020 Accredited Investors agreed to purchase an aggregate of 52,435,000 shares of the Company’s common stock together Warrants to acquire 26,217,500 shares of common stock for a term of five years at an exercise price of $0.15 per share for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $5.24 million. In connection with this private offering, the Company paid or will pay a registered broker-dealer, a cash fee of approximately $367,000 and issue the broker-dealer a common stock purchase warrant to acquire approximately 3.15 million shares of common stock of the Company exercisable for a term of five years at an exercise price of $0.15 per share.
Covid 19
A novel strain of coronavirus (“Covid-19”) emerged globally in December 2019 and has been declared a pandemic. The extent to which Covid-19 will impact our customers, business, results and financial condition will depend on current and future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time. The Company’s day-to-day operations beginning March 2020 have been impacted differently depending on geographic location and services that are being performed. The Cards Plus business located in South Africa has had limited operations in the second quarter of 2020 as the Company is following the guidance and requirements of the South African government. Our operations in the United States and Colombia have suffered less immediate impact as most staff can work remotely and can continue to develop our product offerings.
That said we have seen our business opportunities develop more slowly as business partners and potential customers are dealing with Covid-19 issues, working remotely and these issues are causing delays in decision making and finalization of negotiations and agreements. However, the level of business inquiring about our services has increased as our products serve an increasing mobile economy and workforce.
See above – Impairment loss and Note 13 to the unaudited financial statements.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements that 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 deemed by our management to be material to investors.
Recent Accounting Policies
The recent material accounting policies that may be the most critical to understanding of the financial results and conditions are discussed in Note 1 of the unaudited financial statements.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to include disclosure under this item.
27
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based on the evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2020, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the report that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company has instituted revised policies and procedures with respect to impairment for goodwill and intangible assets, including an intention to use third party experts when appropriate. We believe that these efforts have begun to remediate the control deficiency that existed in 2019 and we will continue to evaluate our processes and policies for further remediation efforts. We anticipate that these remediation efforts will be sufficient to address the control deficiency by the end of the current fiscal year. Except for these remediation efforts, there were no changes made in our internal controls over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended September 30, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
28
PART II
From time to time, the Company is a party to various legal or administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. While any litigation contains an element of uncertainty, we have no reason to believe the outcome of such proceedings will have a material adverse effect on the financial condition or results of operations of the Company.
Risk factors describing the major risks to our business can be found under Item 1A, “Risk Factors”, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. There has been no material change in our risk factors from those previously discussed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K.
