Note 2. Going Concern and Liquidity

 

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that it will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.

 

As reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $48.5 million at September 30, 2019, a net loss of approximately $59.2 million and approximately $49.8 million net cash used in operating activities for the successor period from February 19, 2019 through September 30, 2019. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company is attempting to further expand its customer base; scale up its production of various products; and increase revenues; however, the Company’s cash position may not be sufficient to support its daily operations through the next twelve months from the date of filing this 10-Q. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering and its ability to further generate sufficient revenues. While the Company believes in the viability of its platform and in its ability to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering, there can be no assurances to that effect.

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Note 3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Certain information and disclosures normally included in condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 18, 2019 and the Company’s Current Report Form 8-K/A filed with the SEC on March 18, 2019. Certain reclassifications have been made to conform to current period presentation.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS

(Amounts in tables in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

 

The Acquisition was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting. The Company’s financial statement presentation distinguishes the results of operations into two distinct periods: (i) the period before the consummation of the Acquisition, which includes the period from January 1, 2019 to the Closing Date (the “2019 Predecessor Period”), the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 (the “2018 Predecessor Period”) and (ii) the period after consummation of the Acquisition which includes the period including and after the Closing Date to September 30, 2019 (“2019 Successor Period”), and the three months ended September 30, 2019. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include a black line division which indicates that the Acquired Companies and the Company’s financial information are presented on a different basis and are therefore, not comparable.

 

Determining the fair value of certain assets and liabilities assumed is judgmental in nature and often involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. See Note 4 – Business Combination for a discussion of the estimated fair values of assets and liabilities recorded in connection with the Acquisition.

 

The historical financial information of GTY Cayman prior to the Acquisition is not being reflected in the Predecessor financial statements as these historical amounts have been determined not to be useful to a user of the financial statements. GTY Cayman’s operations prior to the Acquisition, other than income from the Trust Account (as defined in Note 10. Shareholders’ Equity) investments and transaction expenses, were nominal.

 

The Company believes that Predecessor activities related to investments, intangible assets, stock-based compensation, goodwill, fair value measurements and notes payable were either quantitatively or qualitatively immaterial. Therefore, the Company did not disclose these Predecessor activities in the following unaudited footnotes.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The Successor Period condensed consolidated financial statements include all accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Predecessor Period condensed consolidated financial statements include all accounts of the Acquired Companies and the Acquired Companies’ subsidiaries. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Segments

 

The Company has six operating segments. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, who jointly are the Company’s chief operating decision maker, review financial information for each of the Acquired Companies, together with certain consolidated operating metrics, to make decisions about how to allocate resources and to measure the Company’s performance. See Note 11.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original or remaining maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash includes cash held in checking and savings accounts. Cash equivalents are comprised of investments in money market mutual funds. Cash and cash equivalents are recorded at cost, which approximates fair value.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivable consists of amounts due from our customers, which are primarily located throughout the United States and Canada. Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount, do not require collateral, and do not bear interest.

 

The Company estimates its allowance for doubtful accounts by evaluating specific accounts where information indicates the Company’s customers may have an inability to meet financial obligations, such as bankruptcy and significantly aged receivables outstanding. Uncollectible receivables are written-off in the period management believes it has exhausted every opportunity to collect payment from the customer. Bad debt expense is recorded when events or circumstances indicate an additional allowance is required based on the Company’s specific identification approach.

 

The allowance for doubtful accounts for the Successor as of September 30, 2019 and for the Predecessor as of December 31, 2018 was immaterial. Bad debt expense for all periods presented was immaterial.

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents, and accounts receivable. Cash accounts in a financial institution at times may exceed the Federal depository insurance coverage of $250,000. As of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had not experienced losses on these accounts and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts. Additionally, all Canadian Dollars (“CDN”) institution amounts are covered by Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation, or CDIC insurance.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures 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 balance sheets and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant items subject to such estimates include revenue recognition, the carrying value of goodwill, the fair value of acquired intangibles, the capitalization of software development costs, and the useful lives intangible assets, stock-based compensation, contingent consideration and the valuation allowance of deferred tax assets resulting from net operating losses.  

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, and improvements are capitalized. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the condensed consolidated statement of operations in the period realized. Property, plant and equipment is depreciated using the straight-line method over five (5) to fifteen (15) years. Internal-use software is amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life or five (5) years.

 

Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the useful lives or the term of the respective leases.

 

Capitalized Software Costs

 

The Company capitalizes costs incurred during the application development stage related to the development of internal-use software and enterprise cloud computing services. Costs related to preliminary project activities and post-implementation activities are expensed as incurred. For the three months ended September 30, 2019 and the period from February 19, 2019 to September 30, 2019, the Company capitalized $0.2 million and $0.8 million for internal use software, respectively.

 

Intangible Assets (Successor) 

 

Intangible assets consist of acquired customer relationships, acquired developed technology, trade names and non-compete agreements which were acquired as part of the Acquisition. The Company determines the appropriate useful life of its intangible assets by performing an analysis of expected cash flows of the acquired assets. Intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method, which approximates the pattern in which the economic benefits are consumed.

 

Goodwill (Successor)

 

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of an entity over the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and it is presented as Goodwill in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of the Successor.   Under ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (“ASC 350”), goodwill is not amortized but is subject to periodic impairment testing.  ASC 350 requires that an entity assign its goodwill to reporting units and test each reporting unit’s goodwill for impairment at least on an annual basis and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount.  In our evaluation of goodwill for impairment, which will be performed annually during the fourth quarter, we first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances led to a determination that it was more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances, it is determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the Company is required to perform the quantitative goodwill impairment test. As a result of the Acquisition, the Company acquired goodwill during the Successor Period. There was minimal goodwill prior to the Acquisition. The Company did not identify any significant events or circumstances that would require it to perform an impairment test as of September 30, 2019. As such, there was no impairment recognized during the Successor Period.

Business Combinations (Successor)

 

The Company accounts for business acquisitions using the acquisition method of accounting based on Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805 — Business Combinations, which requires recognition and measurement of all identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their fair value as of the date control is obtained. The Company determines the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon its best estimates of the acquisition-date fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisition. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired. Subsequent adjustments to fair value of any contingent consideration are recorded to the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

Based on the acquisition date and the complexity of the underlying valuation work, certain amounts included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements may be provisional and thus subject to further adjustments within the permitted measurement period, as defined in ASC 805. For the three months ended September 30, 2019, adjustments were made within the permitted measurement period that resulted in (i) an increase in the aggregate consideration of the Acquisition of $0.4 million relating to the settlement of the working capital adjustments, and (ii) the conversion of $0.04 stock consideration to cash consideration for the correction of an investor’s status to a non-accredited investor (the “Measurement Period Adjustments). These Measurement Period Adjustments have been reflected as current period adjustments in the three months ended September 30, 2019 in accordance with the guidance in ASU 2015-16 “Business Combinations.” The Measurement Period Adjustments primarily impacted goodwill, with no effect on earnings or cash in the current period. See Note 4.

 

Impairment of long-lived assets

 

The Company reviews long-lived assets, including property and equipment and intangible assets and goodwill for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized when the asset’s carrying value exceeds the total undiscounted cash flows expected from its use and eventual disposition. The amount of the impairment loss is determined as the excess of the carrying value of the asset over its fair value. There were no impairments recorded for all periods presented.

 

Leases

 

Effective January 1, 2019, the Company accounts for its leases under ASC 842, Leases. Under this guidance, arrangements meeting the definition of a lease are classified as operating or financing leases, and are recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as both a right of use asset and a lease liability, calculated by discounting fixed lease payments over the lease term at the rate implicit in the lease or the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. Lease liabilities are increased by interest and reduced by payments each period, and the right of use asset is amortized over the lease term. For operating leases, interest on the lease liability and the amortization of the right of use asset results in straight-line rent expense over the lease term. Variable lease expenses are recorded when incurred.

 

In calculating the right of use asset and lease liability, the Company elects to combine lease and non-lease components. The Company excludes short-term leases having initial terms of 12 months or less from the new guidance as an accounting policy election, and recognizes rent expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. 

 

The Company accounted for leases prior to January 1, 2019 under ASC Topic 840.

 

Fair Value (Successor)

 

The fair value of an asset or liability is the price that would be received to sell an asset or transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company utilizes a fair value hierarchy that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value and defines three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value.

 

  · Level 1 — uses quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

  · Level 2 — uses observable inputs other than quoted prices in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

 

  · Level 3 — uses one or more significant inputs that are unobservable and supported by little or no market activity, and that reflect the use of significant management judgment.

There were no transfers made among the three levels in the fair value hierarchy during the period after consummation of the Acquisition, which includes the period including and after the Closing Date to September 30, 2019.

 

The following table presents additional information about Level 3 liabilities measured at fair value. Both observable and unobservable inputs may be used to determine the fair value of positions that the Company has classified within the Level 3 category. As a result, the unrealized gains and losses for liabilities within the Level 3 category may include changes in fair value that were attributable to both observable (e.g., changes in market interest rates) and unobservable (e.g., changes in unobservable long-dated volatilities) inputs.

 

Changes in Level 3 liabilities measured at fair value from February 18, 2019 to September 30, 2019 were as follows (in thousands):

 

Contingent consideration - February 18, 2019   $ 2,685  
Fair value of contingent consideration - Bonfire     325  
Fair value of contingent consideration - CityBase     48,410  
Fair value of contingent consideration - eCivis     5,859  
Fair value of contingent consideration - Questica     9,311  
Fair value of contingent consideration - Sherpa     1,898  
Change in valuation     (812 )
Change due to fluctuation in foreign currency     10  
Contingent consideration - September 30, 2019   $ 67,686  

 

The change in valuation was due, in part, to the decreased probabilities of the achievement of certain milestones of some of the acquired entities.

 

The fair value of the Company’s contingent consideration liabilities recorded as part of the Acquisition has been classified within Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The contingent consideration represents the estimated fair value of future payments due to the sellers based on each company’s achievement of annual earnings targets in certain years and other events considered in certain transaction documents. The initial fair values of the contingent consideration were calculated through the use of either Monte Carlo simulation or modified Black-Scholes analyses based on earnings projections for the respective earn-out periods, corresponding earnings thresholds, and approximate timing of payments as outlined in the purchase agreements for each of the Acquired Companies. The analyses utilized the following assumptions: (i) expected term; (ii) risk-adjusted net sales or earnings; (iii) risk-free interest rate; and (iv) expected volatility of earnings. Estimated payments, as determined through the respective models, were further discounted by a credit spread assumption to account for credit risk. The contingent consideration is revalued to fair value each period, and any increase or decrease is recorded in operating income (loss). The fair value of the contingent consideration may be impacted by certain unobservable inputs, most significantly with regard to discount rates, expected volatility and historical and projected performance. Significant changes to these inputs in isolation could result in a significantly different fair value measurement.

(UNAUDITED)

(Amounts in tables in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

 

The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximates fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

 

The Company measures certain assets at fair value on a non-recurring basis, generally annually or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. These assets include goodwill and other intangible assets.

 

A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

 

Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions

 

The assets, liabilities and results of operations of certain consolidated entities are measured using their functional currency, which is the currency of the primary foreign economic environment in which they operate. Upon consolidating these entities with the Company, their assets and liabilities are translated to U.S. dollars at currency exchange rates as of the condensed consolidated balance sheet date and their revenues and expenses are translated at the weighted average currency exchange rates during the applicable reporting periods. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating these entities’ condensed consolidated financial statements are reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and total other comprehensive loss on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

 Revenue Recognition

 

 The Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) new revenue recognition framework, ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), on January 1, 2017 using the full retrospective approach. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on prior revenue recognition or on opening equity, as the timing and measurement of revenue recognition for the Company is materially the same under ASC 606 as it was under the prior relevant guidance.

 

With the adoption of Topic 606, revenues are recognized upon transfer of control of promised products and services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products or services. If the consideration promised in a contract includes a variable amount, the Company includes an estimate of the amount it expects to receive for the total transaction price if it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenues recognized will not occur.

 

The Company determines the amount of revenues to be recognized through application of the following steps:

 

  · Identification of the contract, or contracts with a customer;

 

  · Identification of the performance obligations in the contract;

 

  · Determination of the transaction price;

 

  · Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

 

  · Recognition of revenues when or as the Company satisfies the performance obligations.

 

For contracts where the period between when the Company transfers a promised service to the customer and when the customer pays is one year or less, the Company has elected the practical expedient to not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component.

 

The Company has made a policy election to exclude from the measurement of the transaction price all taxes assessed by a government authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue producing transaction and collected by the Company from a customer. Such taxes may include but are not limited to sales, use, value added and certain excise taxes.

Revenues are recognized ratably over the contract term as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of the subscription service, as the service is made available to the Company. The first year of subscription fees are typically payable within 30 days after the execution of a contract, and thereafter upon renewal. The Company initially records subscription fees as contract liabilities and recognize revenues on a straight-line basis over the term of the agreement.

 

Our contracts may include variable consideration in the form of usage fees, which are constrained and recognized once the uncertainties associated with the constraint are resolved, which is when usage occurs and the fee is known.

 

Subscription, support and maintenance revenues also includes kiosk rentals and on-premise support or maintenance pertaining to license sales. Revenues from kiosk rentals and on-premise support are recognized on a straight-line basis over the support period.

 

Revenues from subscription, support and maintenance comprised approximately 68% and 67% of total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and the 2019 Successor Period, respectively.

 

Professional services. The Company’s professional services contracts generate revenues on a time and materials, fixed fee or subscription basis. Revenues are recognized as the services are rendered for time and materials contracts. Revenues are recognized when the milestones are achieved and accepted by the customer or on a proportional performance basis for fixed fee contracts. Revenues are recognized ratably over the contract term for subscription contracts. The milestone method for revenue recognition is used when there is substantive uncertainty at the date the contract is entered into whether the milestone will be achieved. Training revenues are recognized as the services are performed. Revenues from professional services comprised approximately 28% and 26% of total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and the 2019 Successor Period, respectively.

 

License. Revenues from distinct licenses are recognized upfront when the software is made available to the customer, which normally coincides with contract execution, as this is when the customer has the risks and rewards of the right to use the software. Revenues from licenses comprised approximately 4% and 6% of total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and the 2019 Successor Period.

 

Asset sales. Revenues from asset sales are recognized when the asset, typically a kiosk, has been received by the client and is fully operational and ready to accept transactions, which is when the customer obtains control and has the risks and rewards of the asset. Asset sales were less than 1% of total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and the 2019 Successor Period. 

 

Contract Liabilities

 

Contract liabilities primarily consist of amounts that have been billed to or received from customers in advance of revenue recognition and prepayments received from customers in advance for subscription services to the Company’s SaaS offerings and related implementation and training. The Company recognizes contract liabilities as revenues when the services are performed, and the corresponding revenue recognition criteria are met. The Company receives payments both upfront and over time as services are performed. Customer prepayments are generally applied against invoices issued to customers when services are performed and billed. Contract liabilities are reduced as services are provided and the revenue recognition criteria are met. Contract liabilities that are expected to be recognized as revenues during the succeeding twelve-month period are recorded in current liabilities as contract liabilities, and the remaining portion is recorded in long-term liabilities as contract liabilities, non-current. Revenues of approximately $6.3 million, $2.2 million, and $8.1 million were recognized for the 2019 Successor Period, the 2019 Predecessor Period, and the nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, that was included in the contract liabilities balances at the beginning of the respective periods.

 

Cost of revenues

 

Cost of revenues primarily consists of salaries and benefits of personnel relating to our hosting operations and support, implementation, and grants research. Cost of revenues includes data center costs including depreciation of the Company’s data center assets, third-party licensing costs, consulting fees, and the amortization of acquired technology from recent acquisitions.

Stock Based Compensation

 

The Company expenses stock-based compensation over the requisite service period based on the estimated grant-date fair value of the awards. Stock-based awards with graded-vesting schedules are recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the award.

 

The Company estimates the fair value of stock option grants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based awards represent management’s best estimates, involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment.

 

Expected Term — The expected term of options represents the period that the Company’s stock-based awards are expected to be outstanding based on the simplified method, which is the half-life from vesting to the end of its contractual term.

 

Expected Volatility — The Company computes stock price volatility over expected terms based on comparable companies’ historical common stock trading prices.

 

Risk-Free Interest Rate — The Company bases the risk-free interest rate on the U.S. Treasuries implied yield with an equivalent remaining term.

 

Expected Dividend — The Company has never declared or paid any cash dividends on common shares and does not plan to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future, and, therefore, uses an expected dividend yield of zero in valuation models.

 

The following are the assumptions used for the stock option grant on February 19, 2019:

 

Exercise price   $ 1.82  
Expected term (years)     5.1  
Expected stock price volatility     74 %
Risk-free rate of interest     2 %

 

In accordance with ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, the Company records forfeitures as they occur.

 

Net Loss per Share

 

Net loss per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per common share is computed similar to basic net income per common share except that it reflects the potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities or other obligations to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. Due to the net loss for the Successor Period, diluted and basic loss per share are the same.

 

Securities that could potentially dilute loss per share in the future that were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share at September 30, 2019 are as follows:

 

Warrants to purchase common stock     27,093,334  
Unvested restricted stock units     944,962  
Options to purchase common stock     278,623  
Total     28,316,919  

 

Income Taxes

 

Deferred income taxes are provided for the tax effects of temporary differences between (i) the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and (ii) the amounts used for income tax purposes and operating loss carryforwards and credits using enacted tax rates expected to be in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company assesses the likelihood that deferred tax assets will be realized and recognizes a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. This assessment requires judgment as to the likelihood and amounts of future taxable income by tax jurisdiction. To date, the Company has provided a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets as it believes the objective and verifiable evidence of its historical pretax net losses outweighs any positive evidence of its forecasted future results. Although the Company believes that its tax estimates are reasonable, the ultimate tax determination involves significant judgment that is subject to audit by tax authorities in the ordinary course of business. The Company will continue to monitor the positive and negative evidence, and it will adjust the valuation allowance as sufficient objective positive or negative evidence becomes available. No tax related impact was recorded in the financial statements as a result of the adoption of ASU No. 2016-09.

The Company evaluates its uncertain tax positions based on a determination of whether and how much of a tax benefit taken by the Company in its tax filings or positions is more likely than not to be realized. Potential interest and penalties associated with any uncertain tax positions are recorded as a component of income tax expense. Through September 30, 2019, the Company has not identified any material uncertain tax positions for which liabilities would be required to be recorded.

 

As a result of the Acquisition, a temporary difference between the book fair value and tax basis for the assets acquired of $39.9 million was created, resulting in a deferred tax liability and additional goodwill.

 

The following is a rollforward of the Company’s deferred tax liability from February 19, 2019 to September 30, 2019 (in thousands):

 

Balance - February 19, 2019   $ (39,908 )
Income tax benefit (associated with the amortization of intangible assets)     2,819

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) in order to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by, among other provisions, recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for those leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP. For public companies, ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 (including interim periods within those periods) using a modified retrospective approach and early adoption is permitted. In transition, entities may also elect a package of practical expedients that must be applied in its entirety to all leases commencing before the adoption date, unless the lease is modified, and permits entities to not reassess (a) the existence of a lease, (b) lease classification or (c) determination of initial direct costs, as of the adoption date, which effectively allows entities to carryforward accounting conclusions under previous GAAP. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements, which provides entities an optional transition method to apply the guidance under Topic 842 as of the adoption date, rather than as of the earliest period presented. The Company adopted Topic 842 on January 1, 2019, using the optional transition method to apply the new guidance as of January 1, 2019, rather than as of the earliest period presented, and elected the package of practical expedients described above. Based on the analysis, on January 1, 2019, the Company recorded right of use assets of approximately $3.6 million, lease liability of approximately $3.8 million.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), – Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement,” which makes a number of changes meant to add, modify or remove certain disclosure requirements associated with the movement amongst or hierarchy associated with Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted upon issuance of the update. The Company has not determined the impact of this guidance on its financial statements.

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-15, "Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40) - Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract" ("ASU 2018-15"). ASU 2018-15 aligns the accounting for implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the accounting for implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software under ASC 350-40, in order to determine which costs to capitalize and recognize as an asset and which costs to expense. ASU 2018-15 is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2019, and can be applied either prospectively to implementation costs incurred after the date of adoption or retrospectively to all arrangements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2018-15 on its consolidated financial statements and expects to adopt the new standard in the first quarter of 2020.

Note 6. Related Party Transactions

 

Convertible Note

 

On August 8, 2018, GTY Cayman issued the Convertible Note to GTY Investors, LLC (the “Sponsor”), pursuant to which GTY Cayman was able to borrow up to $1 million from the Sponsor from time to time. The Convertible Note does not bear interest. The Sponsor has the option to convert any amounts outstanding under the Convertible Note, up to $1.0 million in the aggregate, into warrants at a conversion price of $1.50 per warrant. The terms of such warrants will be identical to the private placement warrants. During the period ended March 31, 2019, GTY drew down $0.4 million on the Convertible Note, resulting in $1.0 million principal amount outstanding. The $1.0 million principal amount was offset against amounts due from the Sponsor (see “Agreements and Arrangements with Certain Institutional Investors”) and, as of September 30, 2019, there was no amount outstanding under the Convertible Notes.

 

Agreements and Arrangements with Certain Institutional Investors

 

On February 13, 2019, GTY Cayman, the Sponsor, William D. Green, Joseph M. Tucci and Harry L. You (Messrs. Green, Tucci and You, collectively, the “Founders”) entered into agreements and arrangements with certain institutional investors pursuant to which a total of 1,500,000 Class A Ordinary Shares of GTY Cayman were not redeemed in connection with the business combination (the “Outstanding Cayman Shares”). The holder of Outstanding Cayman Shares which were converted into shares of the Company’s common stock on the Closing Date on a one-for-one basis is entitled to put such shares to the Sponsor and the Founders for a purchase price equal to the price at which GTY Cayman redeemed Class A Ordinary Shares in connection with the business combination, $10.29 (the “redemption price”), payment of such purchase price is guaranteed by the Company, and to receive from the Company a cash payment, if and to the extent necessary, but not to exceed $250,000, in order to provide such shareholder with at least a 5% return on such shares above the redemption price. With respect to 1,000,000 of the Outstanding Cayman Shares, GTY Cayman engaged a broker-dealer to facilitate the purchase of the Outstanding Cayman Shares by an institutional investor prior to the Closing for $9.90 per share and agreed to pay such broker-dealer an amount per share in cash equal to the difference between the redemption price and $9.90. In addition, the Sponsor and the Founders entered into agreements prior to the Closing pursuant to which they were obligated to reimburse the holders of an additional 1,942,953 Class A Ordinary Shares that were not redeemed in connection with the business combination (the “Outstanding Class A Shares”) for losses that may be incurred upon the sale of the Outstanding Class A Shares within a specified period following the Closing, up to an agreed-upon limit, and the Company has agreed to guarantee such reimbursement obligations of the Sponsor. During the Q1 2019 Successor Period, the Company, on behalf of the Sponsor, paid $4.0 million for losses incurred upon the sale of the Outstanding Class A Shares and, in turn, the Company reduced its convertible note liability for $1.0 million (see “Convertible Note”). During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Sponsor reimbursed the Company for the remaining $3.0 million for such losses on the Outstanding Class A Shares. As of September 30, 2019, the Outstanding Class A Shares are no longer guaranteed by the Founders or the Company.

Note 7. Share-Based Compensation

 

Stock Options

 

In connection with the Acquisition, the Company adopted a stock option plan and issued 408,667 stock options to employees. The total fair value of the stock options at the grant date was $3.6 million.

 

A summary of stock option activity is as follows:

 

    Number of Shares     Weighted Average Exercise Price     Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (in years)     Total Intrinsic Value  
Outstanding as of February 18, 2019     -     $ -       -     $ -  
Granted     408,667       1.82       8.2       -

Forfeited/expired     (17,401 )     1.16               -  
Outstanding as of September 30, 2019     278,623     $ 2.13       8.2     $ 1,316  
Options vested and exercisable     80,988     $ 2.12       8.1     $ 383  

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2019 and the period from February 19, 2019 to September 30, 2019, the Company recorded approximately $0.3 million and $2.4 million, respectively, of share-based compensation expense related to the options. As of September 30, 2019, the Company has $1.2 million of unrecognized share-based compensation cost. During the Successor Period, share-based compensation expense is recorded as a component of general and administrative expenses.

 

Restricted Stock Units

 

During the Successor Period, the Company issued 1,049,237 restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to employees as annual performance awards. A portion of the RSUs will vest in ratable annual installments over either two or four years, as applicable, from the grant date, and the remaining RSUs will vest subject to the achievement of certain performance conditions over a three-year performance period, in each case, assuming continuous service by the employees through the applicable vesting dates. The RSUs granted to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer are subject to two different sets of performance-vesting criteria: (i) one RSU grant will vest on the last day of any 120-day trading period ending prior to the third anniversary of the grant date, to the extent that during such period, the average closing price per share of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $20, and under certain circumstances, the RSUs may vest if the stock price hurdle is achieved prior to the fourth anniversary of the grant date; and (ii) the other RSU grant will vest subject to the achievement of certain performance conditions over a one-year performance period. In each case, vesting of the RSUs is generally subject to the Chief Executive Officer’s continuous service through each vesting date.

For the three months ended September 30, 2019 and the period from February 19, 2019 to September 30, 2019, the Company recorded approximately $0.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively, of share-based compensation expense related to the RSUs. As of September 30, 2019, the Company had unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to all unvested restricted stock units of $8.5 million. The weighted average remaining contractual term of unvested RSUs that is time based is approximately one year at September 30, 2019. 758,550 of the RSUs granted above contained performance conditions. No stock-based compensation was recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2019 for these performance RSUs, since achievement of such performance metrics was not considered probable.

 

Note 8. Leases

 

The Company leases office space under agreements classified as operating leases that expire on various dates through 2023. Such leases do not require any contingent rental payments, impose any financial restrictions, or contain any residual value guarantees. Certain of the Company’s leases include renewal options and escalation clauses; renewal options have not been included in the calculation of the lease liabilities and right of use assets as the Company is not reasonably certain to exercise the options. Variable expenses generally represent the Company’s share of the landlord’s operating expenses. The Company does not act as a lessor or have any leases classified as financing leases.

 

At September 30, 2019, the Company had operating lease liabilities of approximately $6.4 million and right of use assets of approximately $6.2 million, which are included in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Legal Proceedings

 

From time to time, the Companies may become involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of its business. The Company is not presently a party to any legal proceedings that, if determined adversely to the Company, would have a material adverse effect on the Company.

 

Indemnification

 

In the ordinary course of business, the Company may provide indemnification of varying scope and terms to customers, vendors, investors, directors and officers with respect to certain matters, including, but not limited to, losses arising out of our breach of such agreements, services to be provided by the Company, or from intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties. These indemnification provisions may survive termination of the underlying agreement and the maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification provisions may not be subject to maximum loss clauses. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification provisions is indeterminable. The Company has never paid a material claim, nor have it been sued in connection with these indemnification arrangements.

 

As of September 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, the Company has not accrued a liability for these indemnification arrangements because the likelihood of incurring a payment obligation, if any, in connection with these indemnification arrangements is not probable or reasonably estimable.

Note 10. Shareholders’ Equity

 

Initial Public Offering Redemption Shares

 

In connection with a shareholder meeting called to approve the business combination, the Company provided the holders of its outstanding Class A ordinary shares sold in the Company’s initial public offering (the “public shareholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their public shares. The public shareholders were entitled to redeem their public shares for a pro rata portion of the remaining balance in the trust account established in connection with the Company’s initial public offering for the benefit of the Company’s public shareholders and into which substantially all of the proceeds from the initial public offering were deposited (the “Trust Account”). The remaining 20,289,478 GTY Cayman public shares were recorded at a redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the initial public offering, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” In connection with the Business Combination, 11,073,040 Class A ordinary shares of GTY were redeemed for $114.0 million, at a per share price of approximately $10.29. The remaining 9,216,438 shares with a redemption value of $88.9 million were transferred to permanent equity.

 

Subscription Agreement

 

Immediately prior to the Closing, pursuant to subscription agreements (the “Subscription Agreements”), dated as of various dates from January 9, 2019 through February 12, 2019, by and among GTY and certain institutional and accredited investors party thereto (the “Subscribed Investors”), GTY Cayman issued to the Subscribed Investors an aggregate of 12,863,098 Class A ordinary shares of GTY for $10.00 per share, for an aggregate cash purchase price of approximately $126.4 million and paid fees of $1.1 million, including three such Subscription Agreements with certain CityBase holders (including Michael Duffy, the chief executive officer of CityBase) for an aggregate of 380,937 Class A ordinary shares of GTY at a price of $10.00 per share, for an aggregate cash purchase price of approximately $3.8 million. The Class A ordinary shares of GTY issued to the Subscribed Investors were cancelled and exchanged on a one-for-one basis for shares of Company common stock at the Closing.

 

In connection with the Subscription Agreements, immediately prior to the Closing, the Sponsor surrendered to GTY Cayman for cancellation (at no cost to GTY) 231,179 Class B (founder) shares, which have been retroactively adjusted in the accompanying statement of stockholders equity, and sold 500,000 private placement warrants held by it to an accredited investor in a private placement for an aggregate of $250,000 or $0.50 per warrant (which was $1.00 per warrant less than the price originally paid for such warrants).

 

GTY Merger Share Exchange

 

In connection with the GTY Merger, all of the issued and outstanding shares of GTY Cayman were exchanged for an equal number of shares of GTY common stock and immediately before the exchange, each outstanding unit was separated into its component Class A ordinary share and warrant.  Upon the exchange, 22,978,520 Class A and 13,568,821 Class B shares of GTY Cayman were exchanged for an aggregate of 36,547,341 shares of common stock of GTY.

 

Shares issued in the Acquisition

 

As part of the consideration for the Acquisition, the Company issued (a) 11,973,154 shares of common stock (as adjusted by the Measurement Period Adjustment below), of which 3,937,907 are redeemable at the option of the Company (the “Acquisition Redemption Shares”), (b) 2.6 million Class A and 0.5 million Class C shares (the “Class C Shares”) of Questica Exchangeco (the “Questica Shares”) and 2,161,741 shares of Bonfire Exchangeco shares (collectively, the “Exchange Shares”) that are exchangeable into an equal number of common stock.  The Exchange Shares are recorded as common shares of the Company.  The Company also issued 1,000,000 Class B shares of Questica Shares which are not exchangeable for common stock and thus have no value. The shares issued as consideration in the Acquisition were valued at $10 per share in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. 

 

The 0.5 million Class C Shares were redeemable at the option of the shareholder at $10 per share, and thus the Company had classified the Class C Shares in the capital stock of Questica Exchangeco as temporary equity in accordance with ASC 480 - "Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity." In June 2019, these shares were redeemed for 0.5 million shares of Common Stock at the market price of $7.72, or $3.9 million, and transferred to permanent equity, and $1.3 million of cash. The incremental $0.2 million above the stated redemption price was recorded as a deemed dividend in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.  

In April 2019, 193,645 shares of the Bonfire Exchangeco Shares were converted into the Company’s Common Stock on a one-for-one basis (see Note 4).

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2019, there was a Measurement Period Adjustment to change $41,500, or 4,150 shares, of stock consideration to cash consideration (see Note 4).

The warrants may be exercised only for a whole number of shares of common stock. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the warrants.

 

The Company may call the warrants for redemption, in whole and not in part, at a price of $0.01 per warrant, upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder, if, and only if, the reported last sale price of common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

You should read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with the financial statements and related notes that are included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in our Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed with the SEC on March 18, 2019. Certain statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). These statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Factors which could materially affect such forward-looking statements can be found in the section entitled "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. Investors are urged to consider these factors carefully in evaluating any forward-looking statements and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements made herein are only made as of the date hereof and we undertake no obligation to publicly update such forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances.

 

Certain statements in the following discussions are based on non-GAAP financial measures. A “non-GAAP financial measure” is a numerical measure of a registrant’s historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flows that excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding amounts, that are included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statements of comprehensive income, balance sheets or statements of cash flows of the issuer; or includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of including amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable measure so calculated and presented. The Company includes non-GAAP financial measures in Management’s Discussion and Analysis, as the Company’s management believes that these measures and the information they provide are useful to investors because they permit investors to view the Company’s performance using the same tools that management uses and to better evaluate the Company’s ongoing business performance. In order to better align the Company’s reported results with the internal metrics used by the Company's management to evaluate business performance as well as to provide better comparisons to prior periods and peer data, non-GAAP measures exclude the impact of purchase accounting related to the Acquisition. See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Revenues” below for more information and reconciliations of such measures to the nearest comparable GAAP measures.

 

Overview

 

We are a public sector company that offers a cloud-based suite of solutions primarily for North American state and local governments. Our six wholly-owned subsidiaries are Bonfire Interactive Ltd. (“Bonfire”), CityBase, Inc. (“CityBase”), eCivis, Inc. (“eCivis”), Open Counter Enterprises Inc. (“Open Counter”), Questica Inc. (“Questica”), and Sherpa Government Solutions (“Sherpa”). Through our operating subsidiaries, we serve some of the fastest growing segments in the government technology sector, including procurement, payments, grants management, permitting, and budgeting.

 

We were formed on August 11, 2016 for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “business combination”). Until the business combination, we did not engage in any operations nor generate any revenues. We recognized an opportunity to replace costly legacy systems with scalable and efficient Software as a Service, or SaaS, products. Our search led to the acquisition (the “Acquisition”) of Bonfire, CityBase, eCivis, Open Counter, Questica, and Sherpa on February 19, 2019 (the “Closing Date”).

 

Our customers are primarily located in the United States and Canada, including counties, municipalities, special districts, law enforcement agencies and public school districts. We plan to increase our customer base by leveraging our comprehensive product portfolio with our existing customer base, investing in direct sales to new customers, and utilizing partnerships with complementary products and services.

 

The Acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under GAAP and resulted in a change in accounting basis as of the date of the Acquisition. As a result, our condensed consolidated financial statements for the period beginning on February 19, 2019 are presented on a different basis than that for the periods before February 19, 2019, and therefore are not comparable. As a result of the application of the acquisition method of accounting, our condensed consolidated financial statements and certain presentations are separated into two distinct periods to indicate the different ownership and accounting basis between the periods presented: (i) the period before the consummation of the Acquisition, which includes the period from January 1, 2019 to the Closing Date (“2019 Predecessor Period”) and the nine months ended September 30, 2018 (the “2018 Predecessor Period”), and (ii) the periods on and after the consummation of the acquisition, which includes the period including and after the Closing Date to September 30, 2019 (“2019 Successor Period”), and the three months ended September 30, 2019.

 

Expansion and Further Penetration of Our Customer Base.    We employ a strategy that focuses on acquiring new customers and growing our relationships with existing customers over time. We believe significant opportunity exists for us to acquire new customers as well as expand the use of our platforms by selling additional products and increasing the number of users within our current customers’ organizations.

 

28

 

 

Investment in Growth.    We plan to continue to invest in our business so that we can capitalize on our market opportunity. We intend to continue to grow our sales and marketing team to acquire new customers and to increase sales to existing customers. We intend to continue to grow our research and development team to extend the functionality and range of our applications. We also intend to invest in new and improved IT solutions to support our business. However, we expect our sales and marketing expenses and research and development expenses as a percentage of revenues to decrease over time as we grow our revenues and gain economies of scale by increasing our customer base and increase sales to our existing customer base. We believe that these investments will contribute to our long-term growth, although they may adversely affect our profitability in the near term.

 

Leveraging Partnerships.    We plan to continue to strengthen and expand our relationships with technology vendors, professional services firms, and resellers. These relationships enable us to increase the speed of deployment and offer a wider range of integrated services to our customers. We intend to support these existing relationships, seek additional relationships and further expand our channel of resellers to help us increase our presence in existing markets and to expand into new markets. Our business and results of operations will be significantly affected by our success in leveraging and expanding these relationships.

 

Market Adoption of Our Platforms.    A key focus of our sales and marketing efforts is creating market awareness about the benefits of our cloud-based SaaS platforms. The market for SaaS solutions is less mature than the market for on-premise software applications, and potential customers may be slow or unwilling to migrate from their legacy solutions. Our business and operating results will be significantly affected by the degree to and speed with which organizations adopt our solutions.

 

Key Components of our Results of Operations

 

Revenues

 

Subscription, support and maintenance. We provide software hosting services that provide customers with access to software related support and updates during the term of the arrangement. Revenues are recognized ratably over the contract term as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of the subscription service. The first year of subscription fees are typically payable within 30 days after the execution of a contract, and thereafter upon renewal. We initially record subscription fees as contract liabilities and recognize revenues on a straight-line basis over the term of the agreement.

 

Our contracts may include variable consideration in the form of usage fees, which are included in the transaction price in the period in which the usage occurs and the fee is known.

 

Subscription, support and maintenance revenues also includes kiosk rentals and on-premise support or maintenance pertaining to license sales. Revenues from kiosk rentals and on-premise support are recognized on a straight-line basis over the support period.

 

Revenues from subscription, support and maintenance comprised approximately 67% of total revenues for the 2019 Successor Period.

 

Professional services.     Our professional services contracts generate revenues on a time and materials, fixed fee or subscription basis. Revenues are recognized as the services are rendered for time and materials contracts. Revenues are recognized when the milestones are achieved and accepted by the customer or on a proportional performance basis for fixed fee contracts. Revenues are recognized ratably over the contract term for subscription contracts. The milestone method for revenue recognition is used when there is substantive uncertainty at the date the contract is entered into whether the milestone will be achieved. Training revenues are recognized as the services are performed. Revenues from professional services comprised approximately 26% of total revenues for the 2019 Successor Period.

 

License. Revenues from distinct licenses are recognized upfront when the software is made available to the customer, which normally coincides with contract execution, as this is when the customer has the risks and rewards of the right to use the software. Revenues from licenses comprised approximately 6% of total revenues for the 2019 Successor Period.

 

Asset sales. Revenues from asset sales are recognized when the asset, typically a kiosk, has been received by the client and is fully operational and ready to accept transactions, which is when the customer obtains control and has the risks and rewards of the asset. Revenues from asset sales comprised less than 1% of total revenues for the 2019 Successor Period. 

 

Cost of Revenues

 

Cost of revenues primarily consists of salaries and benefits of personnel relating to our hosting operations and support, implementation, and grants research. Cost of revenues includes data center costs including depreciation of the Company’s data center assets, third-party licensing costs, consulting fees, and the amortization of acquired technology from recent acquisitions.

 

29

 

 

Operating Expenses

 

Sales and marketing

 

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of personnel costs of our sales and marketing employees, including salaries, sales commissions and incentives and benefits, travel and related costs, outside consulting fees, marketing programs, including lead generation, and costs of advertising and trade shows. We defer sales commissions and amortize them ratably over the expected customer life. We expect sales and marketing expenses will increase as we expand our direct sales teams and increase sales through our strategic relationships and resellers.

 

Research and development

 

Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and benefits associated with our engineering, product and quality assurance personnel. Research and development expenses also include the cost of third-party contractors. Other than internal-use software development costs that qualify for capitalization, research and development costs are expensed as incurred. We expect research and development costs to increase as we develop new solutions and make improvements to our existing platforms.

 

General and administrative

 

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and benefits with our executive, finance, legal, human resources, compliance and other administrative personnel, accounting, auditing and legal professional services fees, recruitment costs, and other corporate-related expenses. We expect that general and administrative expenses will increase as we incur the costs of compliance associated with being a publicly-traded company, including legal, audit and consulting fees.

 

Results of Operations

 

We accounted for the Acquisition as a business combination, which resulted in a new basis of accounting. Refer to Note 3 of the notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information. As a result of the Acquisition, our condensed consolidated financial statements for the period after February 19, 2019 is presented on a different basis than that for the periods before February 19, 2019 due to the application of purchase accounting as of February 19, 2019 and, therefore, are not comparable.

 

The Acquisition resulted in the following principal impacts for the period subsequent to the Acquisition date:

 

  · A reduction in revenues in the 2019 Successor Period as a result of the contract liabilities at the Acquisition date being recorded at fair value, an amount less than its then carrying value;
     
  · Increased amortization expense resulting from recording of intangible assets at fair value. We record amortization of acquired developed technology in cost of revenues, amortization of customer relationships in sales and marketing expenses, and amortization of covenants not to compete and tradename intangible assets in general and administrative expenses;
     
  · Contingent consideration issued as part of the Acquisition was recorded at fair value each period with changes in fair value recorded in general and administrative costs; and
     
  · Transaction costs were expensed as incurred as a separate line item in our condensed consolidated statement of operations;

 

We believe reviewing our operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 by combining the results of the 2019 Predecessor Period and 2019 Successor Period (“S/P Combined Period”) is more useful in discussing our overall operating performance when compared to the 2018 Predecessor Period.

 

Three Months Ended September 30, 2019 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2018

 

Total revenues

 

Our total revenues were $8.8 million. Excluding the $1.0 million impact of purchase accounting, our total non-GAAP revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was $9.8 million compared to $7.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2018 on a comparable basis, representing a 28% increase. This increase was driven by an increase in the number of customers, an increase in the number of users added by existing customers and an increase in the number of products purchased by existing customers. The change in revenues for each operating segment is due to the following (in thousands, except percentages):

Bonfire’s, Questica’s and Open Counter’s revenues increased primarily due to an increase in subscription and support and maintenance revenues resulting from an increase in customers from the prior year. eCivis revenues increased primarily as a result of an increase in professional services. Sherpa’s revenues decreased due to a significant decrease in license revenues, partially offset by an increase in professional services revenues.

 

Total cost of revenues

 

Our total cost of revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2019 were consistent on a year-over-year basis. The change in cost of revenues for each operating segment is due to the following (in thousands, except percentages):

Hosting tools and services were materially consistent with the comparative year-over-year period.

 

CityBase

 

CityBase’s total cost of revenues decreased primarily due to a $0.2 million decrease in expenses incurred by third-party contractors, a $0.2 million decrease in the cost of kiosks sold, and a $0.1 million decrease in salaries and wages, partially offset by a $0.3 million increase in bank fees associated with its usage fee revenues.

Sherpa

 

Sherpa’s total cost of revenues increased due primarily to additional consultants hired to support its expanding professional services revenues. 

 

Operating expenses (excluding amortization of intangible assets and acquisition costs)

 

Our total operating expenses (excluding amortization of intangible assets, acquisition costs and change in fair value of contingent consideration) for the three months ended September 30, 2019 have increased due primarily to increases in headcount in sales and marketing, general and administrative, and research and development resulting from growth in the business. The change in operating expenses for each operating segment is due to the following (in thousands, except percentages):

Bonfire

 

Bonfire’s total operating expense increased due primarily to a 30% increase in sales and marketing and a 10% increase in general and administrative expenses, partially offset by a 7% decrease in research and development. The increase in sales and marketing was primarily due to an increase of stock-based compensation of $0.1 million, a $0.1 million increase in salaries and benefits and a $0.1 million increase in commissions expense. These increases were driven by a 37% increase in average headcount between September 30, 2018 and September 30, 2019.

 

CityBase

 

CityBase’s total operating expense increased due primarily to an 82% increase in sales and marketing, a 39% increase in research and development and a 12% increase in general and administrative expenses.

eCivis

 

eCivis’ total operating expense increased primarily due to an 87% increase in sales and marketing and a 2% increase in research and development, partially offset by a 16% decrease in general and administrative costs. The increase in sales and marketing was primarily due to a $0.3 million increase in salaries and benefits driven by a 74% increase in average headcount from September 30, 2018 to September 30, 2019. The decrease in general and administrative costs was primarily due to lower oversight costs at the company level post-Acquisition.

 

Open Counter

 

Open Counter’s total operating expense increased primarily due to a $0.2 million increase in salaries and benefits driven by a 50% increase in average headcount from September 30, 2018 to September 30, 2019.

Questica

 

Questica’s total operating expense increased primarily due to a 53% increase in sales and marketing, a 3% increase in research and development and was offset by a 13% decrease in general and administrative expenses. The increase in sales and marketing is due primarily to a 44% increase in average headcount from September 30, 2018 to September 30, 2019.

 

Sherpa

 

Sherpa’s total operating expenses increased due primarily to a $0.3 million increase in salaries and benefits driven by a 53% increase in average headcount from September 30, 2018 to September 30, 2019, partially offset by a decrease in expenses incurred by third-party contractors.

Interest income was primarily due to the investments held by GTY Corporate.

 

Successor/Predecessor (“S/P”) Combined Period Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018

 

Total revenues

 

Our total revenues for the S/P Combined Period increased on a year-over-year basis. This increase was driven by an increase in the number of customers, an increase in the number of users added by existing customers and an increase in the number of products purchased by existing customers. Our revenues for the S/P Combined Period were $25.0 million. Excluding the $3.6 million impact of purchase accounting and combining the results of the 2019 Predecessor Period and 2019 Successor Period, our total non-GAAP adjusted revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 would have been $28.5 million compared to $21.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 on a comparable basis, representing a 36% increase. The change in revenues for each operating segment is due to the following (in thousands, except percentages):

Total cost of revenues

 

Our total cost of revenues for the S/P Combined Period have increased on a year-over-year basis. The increase was driven by an increase in headcount in hosting operations and professional services, an increase in hosting costs due to customer expansion, and an increase in third-party product partnership costs. The change in cost of revenues for each operating segment is due to the following (in thousands, except percentages):

Bonfire

 

Bonfire’s total cost of revenues increased primarily due to a $0.2 million increase and salaries and benefits driven by a 21% increase in average headcount from September 30, 2018 to September 30, 2019. The remaining increase was from additional hosting tools and services to support the higher number of customers supported on the platform.

 

CityBase

 

CityBase’s total cost of revenues increased primarily due to a $1.6 million increase in bank fees associated with its expansion in usage fee revenues and offset by a $0.4 million decrease in expenses incurred by third-party contractors and a $0.3 million decrease in the cost of kiosks sold.

Bonfire

 

Bonfire’s total operating expense increased due to a 128% increase in sales and marketing, a 33% increase in research and development and a 30% increase in general and administrative costs. The increase in sales and marketing was primarily due to a $1.3 million increase in stock-based compensation expense and a $0.9 million increase in salaries and benefits driven by a 59% increase in average headcount from September 30, 2018 to September 30, 2019. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to a $0.3 million increase in salaries and benefits driven by a 25% increase in average headcount from September 30, 2018 to September 30, 2019. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to a $0.7 million increase in stock-based compensation expense.

 

CityBase

 

CityBase’s total operating expense increased due to a 35% increase in research and development, a 31% increase in sales and marketing and a 12% increase in general and administrative costs. The increase in research and development was primarily due to a $1.9 million increase in salaries and benefits driven by a 68% increase in average headcount from September 30, 2018 to September 30, 2019. The increase in sales and marketing was primarily due to a $0.6 million increase in salaries and benefits driven by a 183% increase in average headcount from September 30, 2018 to September 30, 2019.

 

eCivis

 

eCivis’ total operating expense increased due to a 62% increase in sales and marketing and a 14% increase in research and development and was partially offset by a 19% decrease in general and administrative costs. The increase in sales and marketing was primarily due to a $0.4 million increase in salaries and benefits driven by a 46% increase in average headcount from September 30, 2018 to September 30, 2019 and a $0.1 million increase in commission expense. The increase in research and development was primarily due to a $0.1 million increase in salaries and benefits driven by a 19% increase in average headcount from September 30, 2018 to September 30, 2019. The decrease in general and administrative costs was primarily due to a $0.2 million decrease in oversight costs at the company level post-Acquisition.

 

Open Counter

 

Open Counter’s total operating expense increased due primarily to a $0.5 million increase in salaries and benefits driven by a 34% increase in average headcount from September 30, 2018 to September 30, 2019.

 

35

 

 

Questica

 

Questica’s total operating expense increased due primarily to a 53% increase in sales and marketing driven primarily by a 33% increase in average headcount from September 30, 2018 to September 30, 2019.

 

Sherpa

 

Sherpa’s total operating expenses increased due primarily to a $0.6 million increase in salaries and benefits driven by a 55% increase in average headcount from September 30, 2018 to September 30, 2019.

 

Corporate

 

Corporate expenses primarily comprised of outside services including legal, accounting and consulting fees, payroll and related expenses, corporate insurance, and stock-based compensation.

 

Other operating expenses

 

Acquisition costs consist primarily of Acquisition transaction costs, capital market advisory fees, and bonuses incurred as a result of the transaction or a change in control. Amortization of intangible assets consists of the amortization of finite lived intangibles resulting from the Acquisition as described in Note 3 of the notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this form 10-Q.

 

Other income (expense)

 

Interest income during the S/P Combined Period was primarily due to the investments held by GTY Corporate during the 2019 Successor Period.

 

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Revenues

 

To supplement our condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, we have provided certain financial measures that have not been prepared in accordance with GAAP defined as “non-GAAP financial measures,” which include (i) non-GAAP revenues, (ii) non-GAAP gross profit and non-GAAP gross margin, (iii) and non-GAAP loss from operations .

 

We use these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing our financial results and believe these metrics are useful to investors, as a supplement to the corresponding GAAP measure, in evaluating our ongoing operational performance and trends. However, it is important to note that particular items we exclude from, or include in, our non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the items excluded from, or included in, similar non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies in the same industry. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

 

Non-GAAP Revenues. Non-GAAP revenues are defined as GAAP revenues adjusted for the impact of purchase accounting resulting from its business combination which reduced its acquired contract liabilities to fair value. The Company believes that presenting non-GAAP revenues is useful to investors as it eliminates the impact of the purchase accounting adjustments to revenues to allow for a direct comparison between current and future periods.

 

Non-GAAP Gross profit and Non-GAAP Gross margin. Non-GAAP gross profit is defined as GAAP gross profit adjusted for the impact of purchase accounting resulting its business combination. Non-GAAP gross margin is defined as non-GAAP gross profit divided by non-GAAP revenues. The Company believes that presenting non-GAAP gross profit and margin is useful to investors as it eliminates the impact of the purchase accounting adjustments to allow for a direct comparison between periods.

 

Non-GAAP Loss from operations. Non-GAAP loss from operations is defined as GAAP loss from operations adjusted for the impact of purchase accounting to revenues resulting from its business combination, the amortization of acquired intangible assets, stock-based compensation, acquisition related costs, and the change in fair value of contingent consideration. The Company believes that presenting non-GAAP loss from operations is useful to investors as it eliminates the impact of certain non-cash and acquisition related expenses to allow a direct comparison of loss from operations between all periods presented.

 

Below is a reconciliation of non-GAAP revenues, Non-GAAP gross profit and Non-GAAP gross margin and Non-GAAP loss from operations to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures (in thousands, except percentages):

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of September 30, 2019, we had a cash balance of approximately $16.9 million. Through September 30, 2019, our liquidity needs were satisfied through proceeds from our initial public offering and funds held in the Trust Account (see Note 10-Shareholders’ Equity-to the unaudited consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q), proceeds from the PIPE Transaction (as defined below), and proceeds from our June 2019 registered direct offering.

 

Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.

 

As reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $48.5 million at September 30, 2019, a net loss of approximately $59.2 million and approximately $49.8 million net cash used in operating activities for the successor period from February 19, 2019 through September 30, 2019. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

We are attempting to further expand its customer base; scale up its production of various products; and increase revenues; however, our cash position may not be sufficient to support our daily operations through the next twelve months from the date of filing this 10-Q. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering and its ability to further generate sufficient revenues. While we believe in the viability of its platform and in our ability to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering, there can be no assurances to that effect.

 

PIPE Transaction

 

Immediately prior to the closing of the business combination (the “Closing”), pursuant to subscription agreements (the “Subscription Agreements”), dated as of various dates from January 9, 2019 through February 12, 2019, by and among GTY Cayman and certain institutional and accredited investors party thereto (the “Subscribed Investors”), GTY Cayman issued to the Subscribed Investors an aggregate of 12,853,098 Class A ordinary shares of GTY for $10.00 per share, for an aggregate cash purchase price of approximately $126.3 million, including three such Subscription Agreements with certain CityBase holders (including Michael Duffy, the chief executive officer of CityBase) for an aggregate of 380,937 Class A ordinary shares of GTY Cayman at a price of $10.00 per share, for an aggregate cash purchase price of approximately $3.8 million (the “PIPE Transaction”). The Class A ordinary shares of GTY Cayman issued to the Subscribed Investors were cancelled and exchanged on a one-for-one basis for shares of Company common stock at the Closing.

Net cash provided (used in) by financing activities   $ 29,529     $ (540 )   $ 13,368  

 

Net Cash (Used in) Provided by Activities

 

Our net loss and cash flows from operating activities are significantly influenced by the Acquisition and our investments in headcount and infrastructure to support anticipated growth.

 

For the Successor Period, net cash used in operations was $49.8 million resulting from our net loss of $59.2 million and changes in operating assets and liabilities of $0.6 million and offset by net non-cash expenses of $9.9 million. The $9.9 million of non-cash expenses was comprised of $9.4 million of amortization of intangible assets acquired as a result of the Acquisition and $2.9 million from share-based compensation offset by $2.8 million of deferred tax benefits related to the tax and book basis difference on the amortization of intangible assets. The changes in operating assets and liabilities of $0.6 million was comprised, in part, by a "Make Whole" payment of $0.8 million in conjunction with an agreement for investors to buy a portion of the Acquisition Redemption Shares at a price less than the previously agreed redemption price.

 

For the Predecessor Period, net cash provided by operations was $0.3 million resulting from our changes in operating assets and liabilities of $1.6 million and net non-cash expenses of $0.4 million offset by our net loss of $1.7 million. The $1.6 million of net cash flows provided as a result of changes in our operating assets and liabilities was primarily due to a $2.2 million decrease in accounts receivable resulting from seasonality in billings and offset by a $0.8 million decrease in accounts payable. The $0.4 million of non-cash expenses was primarily comprised of $0.2 million of depreciation of property and equipment.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, net cash used in operations was $3.9 million resulting from our net loss of $10.9 million and offset by changes in operating assets and liabilities of $3.9 million and net non-cash expenses of $3.1 million. The $3.9 million of net cash flows provided as a result of changes in our operating assets and liabilities was due to a $5.1 million increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities offset by a $0.6 million increase in accounts receivable and a $0.6 million increase in prepaid expenses. The $3.1 million of non-cash expenses was primarily comprised of $1.4 million of the change in fair value of notes payable converted to stock, $0.6 million of share-based compensation, and $0.5 million of depreciation of property and equipment. 

  

Net Cash Provided by Investing Activities

 

Our primary investing activities have consisted of investments in marketable securities and capital expenditures. In February 2019, we completed our Acquisition and the resulting cash flow impact is described below in the Successor Period.

 

For the Successor Period, cash provided by investing activities was $37.2 million resulting from $217.6 million of proceeds from cash held in a trust and offset primarily due to the Acquisition which had a cash purchase price of $179.4 million net of cash acquired and $1.0 million of capital expenditures and capitalization of internal-use software.

 

For the Predecessor Period, cash provided by investing activities was $1.5 million due to a $1.5 million sale of marketable securities by Questica.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, there was no material change in cash provided by investing activities.

 

39

 

 

Net Cash Provided By (Used in) Financing Activities

 

For the Successor Period, cash provided by financing activities was $29.5 million primarily as a result of the private placement of Class A shares of $125.3 million and proceeds received from the successful registered direct offering of common stock of $25.5 million, net of costs and offset primarily by the redemption of shares in the amount of $114.0 million and $5.2 million of common stock repurchases.

 

For the Predecessor Period, cash used in financing activities was $0.5 million primarily as a result of member distributions of $0.5 million.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, cash provided by financing activities was $13.4 million primarily as a result of $10.0 million of issuances of predecessor preferred shares and $6.2 million of proceeds from borrowings and offset by $0.9 million of dividends and $0.7 million of repayments of borrowings.

The impact of recently issued accounting standards is set forth in Note 3, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of the notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We are not party to any off-balance sheet transactions. Other than the guarantees described in Note 9-Shareholders’ Equity-Agreements and Arrangements with Certain Institutional Investors to the unaudited consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have no guarantees or obligations other than those which arise out of normal business operations. 

 

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

 

As of September 30, 2019, there were no significant changes to our contractual obligations from those presented as of December 31, 2018 in our Current Report Form 8-K/A filed with the SEC on March 18, 2019.

  

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, there were no material changes to our interest rate risk disclosures, market risk disclosures and foreign currency exchange rate risk disclosures reported in our Current Report Form 8-K/A filed with the SEC on March 18, 2019 for the year ended December 31, 2018.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Principal Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

 

With respect to the quarter ended September 30, 2019, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operations of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon this evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

 

Management does not expect that our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control systems are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, no evaluation of internal control over financial reporting can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been or will be detected.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting 

 

In our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, we disclosed that the Acquired Companies identified certain material weaknesses in their internal controls over financial reporting. These material weaknesses related to: (i) deficiencies in Bonfire’s period end financial statement close process, (ii) each of CityBase’s, eCivis’s, Open Counter’s and Sherpa’s limited segregation of duties with regard to financial reporting activities such as payroll entry and processing due to the size of their respective accounting departments and (iii) deficiencies in Questica’s period end financial statement close process resulting from, among other things, the preparation of financial statements for the proxy statement/prospectus with a different fiscal year end than its historical fiscal year end.

 

We believe that, as of September 30, 2019, we have remediated these material weaknesses and improved the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting by implementing additional controls related thereto.

 

The remediation efforts Management took to address the previously identified material weaknesses include, but are not limited to, the following:

 

  · Implementation of specific policies and procedures with detailed instructions to the Acquired Companies in order to adequately communicate the requirements around processes and controls;

 

  · Implementation of controls over manual journal entries and account reconciliations, including improving controls and procedures related to the timeliness and effectiveness of our review and approval procedures;

 

  · Expansion of our financial leadership team by adding employees and external consultants, each with the commensurate knowledge, experience, and training to properly support our financial reporting and accounting functions including overseeing that the first two items listed are timely and adequately implemented; and

 

  · Adoption of formal accounting policies related to non-routine complex transactions, such accounting for business combinations, revenue recognition, equity classification, deferred income taxes and derivative accounting.
