RED CAT HOLDINGS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the financial information included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2023 of Red Cat Holdings, Inc. (the "Company"), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on July 27, 2023.
Note 1 – The Business
Red Cat Holdings (“Red Cat” or the “Company”) was originally incorporated in February 1984. Since April 2016, the Company’s primary business has been to provide products, services and solutions to the drone industry which it presently does through its four wholly owned subsidiaries. Beginning in January 2020, the Company expanded the scope of its drone products and services through four acquisitions, including:
| A. | In January 2020, the Company acquired Rotor Riot, a provider of First Person View (FPV) drones and equipment, primarily to the consumer marketplace. The purchase price was $1,995,114. |
| B. | In November 2020, the Company acquired Fat Shark Holdings, a provider of FPV video goggles to the drone industry. The purchase price was $8,354,076. |
| C. | In May 2021, the Company acquired Skypersonic which provides hardware and software solutions that enable drones to complete inspection services in locations where GPS is not available, yet still record and transmit data even while being operated from thousands of miles away. The purchase price was $2,791,012. |
| D. | In August 2021, the Company acquired Teal Drones, a leader in commercial and government UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) technology. The purchase price was $10,011,279. |
Following the Teal acquisition in August 2021, we focused on integrating and organizing these businesses. Effective May 1, 2022, we established the Enterprise and Consumer segments in order to sharpen our focus on the unique opportunities in each sector. Enterprise's initial strategy was to provide UAV's, primarily drones, to commercial enterprises, including the military, to navigate dangerous military environments and confined industrial and commercial interior spaces. Subsequently, Enterprise narrowed its near-term focus on the military and other government agencies. Skypersonic's technology has been re-focused on military applications and its operations consolidated into Teal. The Consumer segment, which includes Fat Shark and Rotor Riot, is focused on hobbyists and enthusiasts which are expected to increase as drones become more visible in our daily lives. The reportable segments were established based on how our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), which is a committee comprised of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), Chief Operating Officer (“COO”) and our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), manages our business, makes resource allocation and operating decisions, and evaluates operating performance. See “Note 21 - Segment Reporting”.
In November 2022, we entered into an agreement to sell our Consumer segment to Unusual Machines, Inc. (or “Unusual Machines” or “UM”). The adjusted sale price is $20 million, including $3 million in cash, at closing, and $17 million in securities of Unusual Machines. The agreement reflects the Company's decision to focus its efforts and capital on military and defense where it believes that there are more opportunities to create long term shareholder value. The closing of the transaction is contingent upon Unusual Machines completing (i) an initial public offering that raises sufficient capital to close the transaction, and (ii) a listing on a public stock exchange such as the NYSE or Nasdaq.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting – The financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). Certain prior period amounts have been restated to conform to the current year presentation.
Principles of Consolidation – Our consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our wholly owned operating subsidiaries which include Teal Drones, Skypersonic, Rotor Riot, and Fat Shark. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
As further described in Note 3, we presently expect to sell our Consumer segment, which includes Rotor Riot and Fat Shark, within the next twelve months. Accordingly, the Consumer segment businesses are characterized as Discontinued Operations in these financial statements. The assets and liabilities of these entities have been presented separately in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as discontinued operations. Similarly, the operating results and cash flows of discontinued operations are separately stated in those respective financial statements.
Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates reflected in these financial statements include those used to (i) determine stock-based compensation, (ii) complete purchase price accounting for acquisitions, (iii) accounting for derivatives, (iv) reserves and allowances related to accounts receivable and inventory, and (v) the evaluation of long-term assets, including goodwill, for impairment.
Cash and Cash Equivalents – At July 31, 2023, we had cash of $937,756 in multiple commercial banks and financial services companies. We have not experienced any loss on these cash balances and believe they are not exposed to any significant credit risk.
Marketable Securities – Our marketable securities have been classified and accounted for as available-for-sale securities. These securities are primarily invested in corporate bonds and are readily saleable, and therefore, we have classified them as short term. Our available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value with any unrealized gains and losses reported as a component of comprehensive income (loss). Once realized, any gains or losses are recognized in the statement of operations.
We have elected to present accrued interest income separately from marketable securities on our consolidated balance sheets. Accrued interest income was $82,318 and $151,671 as of July 31, 2023 and April 30, 2023, respectively, and was included in other current assets. We did not write off any accrued interest income during the three months ended July 31, 2023 and 2022.
Accounts Receivable, net – Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount less allowances for doubtful accounts. The Company's estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts is based on a multitude of factors, including historical bad debt levels for its customer base, past experience with a specific customer, the economic environment, and other factors. Accounts receivable balances are written off against the allowance when it is probable that the receivable will not be collected.
Inventories – Inventories, which consist of raw materials, work-in-process, and finished goods, are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, and are measured using the first-in, first-out method. Cost components include direct materials and direct labor, as well as in-bound freight. At each balance sheet date, the Company evaluates the net realizable value of its inventory using various reference measures including current product selling prices, as well as evaluating for excess quantities and obsolescence.
| 8 |
Goodwill and Long-lived Assets – Goodwill represents the future economic benefit arising from other assets acquired in an acquisition that are not individually identified and separately recognized. We test goodwill for impairment in accordance with the provisions of ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, (“ASC 350”). Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually at the reporting unit level or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. ASC 350 provides that an entity has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is 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, an entity determines it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then additional impairment testing is not required. However, if an entity concludes otherwise, then it is required to perform an impairment test. The impairment test involves comparing the estimated fair value of a reporting unit with its book value, including goodwill. If the estimated fair value exceeds book value, goodwill is considered not to be impaired. If, however, the fair value of the reporting unit is less than book value, then an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the amount that the book value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit.
The estimate of fair value of a reporting unit is computed using either an income approach, a market approach, or a combination of both. Under the income approach, we utilize the discounted cash flow method to estimate the fair value of a reporting unit. Significant assumptions inherent in estimating the fair values include the estimated future cash flows, growth assumptions for future revenues (including gross margin, operating expenses, and capital expenditures), and a rate used to discount estimated future cash flow projections to their present value based on estimated weighted average cost of capital (i.e., the selected discount rate). Our assumptions are based on historical data, supplemented by current and anticipated market conditions, estimated growth rates, and management’s plans. Under the market approach, fair value is derived from metrics of publicly traded companies or historically completed transactions of comparable businesses. The selection of comparable businesses is based on the markets in which the reporting units operate and consider risk profiles, size, geography, and diversity of products and services.
Goodwill for Rotor Riot relates to its strong social media presence including more than 200,000 YouTube subscribers. Goodwill for Fat Shark is attributable to its relationship with manufacturing sources in China and the potential to integrate its goggle technologies with the Teal drone. Goodwill for Teal is ascribed to its existing relationship with several U.S. government agencies including its classification as an approved vendor. The Company expects that the Goodwill recognized in each transaction will be deductible for tax purposes. The Company has reported net losses since its inception and is presently unable to determine when and if the tax benefit of this deduction will be realized.
Property and equipment – Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation which is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset. The estimated useful lives of our property and equipment are generally: (i) furniture and fixtures - seven years, (ii) equipment and related - two to five years, and (iii) leasehold improvements - 15 years.
Leases – Effective August 1, 2021, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 842 titled “Leases” which requires the recognition of assets and liabilities associated with lease agreements. The Company adopted ASC 842 on a modified retrospective transition basis which means that it did not restate financial information for any periods prior to August 1, 2021. Upon adoption, the Company recognized a lease liability obligation of $796,976 and a right-of-use asset for the same amount.
The Company determines if a contract is a lease or contains a lease at inception. Operating lease liabilities are measured, on each reporting date, based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the remaining lease term. The Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate. Therefore, the Company uses an effective discount rate of 12% based on its last debt financing. Operating lease assets are measured by adjusting the lease liability for lease incentives, initial direct costs incurred and asset impairments. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term with the operating lease asset reduced by the amount of the expense. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate a lease when they are reasonably certain to occur.
Fair Values, Inputs and Valuation Techniques for Financial Assets and Liabilities, and Related Disclosures – The fair value measurements and disclosure guidance defines fair value and establishes a framework for measuring fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In accordance with this guidance, the Company has categorized its recurring basis financial assets and liabilities into a three-level fair value hierarchy based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique.
| 9 |
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
The guidance establishes three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:
Level 1: Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date;
Level 2: Inputs are observable, unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities; and
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities that are supported by little or no market data.
Disclosures for Non-Financial Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis
The Company's financial instruments mainly consist of cash, receivables, current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and debt. The carrying amounts of cash, receivables, current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and current debt approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.
Convertible Securities and Derivatives
When the Company issues convertible debt or equity instruments that contain embedded derivative instruments that are to be bifurcated and accounted for as liabilities, the total proceeds from the convertible host instruments are first allocated to the bifurcated derivative instruments. The remaining proceeds, if any, are then allocated to the convertible instruments themselves, resulting in those instruments being recorded at a discount from their face value but no lower than zero. Any excess amount is recognized as a derivative expense.
Derivative Liabilities
The Company has financial instruments that are considered derivatives or contain embedded features subject to derivative accounting. Embedded derivatives are valued separately from the host instrument and are recognized as liabilities on the Company's balance sheet. The Company measures these instruments at their estimated fair value and recognizes changes in their estimated fair value in results of operations during the period of change.
In October 2020 and January 2021, the Company entered into convertible note agreements which included provisions under which the conversion price was equal to the lesser of an initial stated amount or the conversion price of a future offering. This variable conversion feature was recognized as a derivative. Both financings included the issuance of warrants which contained similar variable conversion features. The Company values these convertible notes and warrants using the multinomial lattice method that values the derivative liability based on a probability weighted discounted cash flow model. The resulting liability is valued at each reporting date and the change in the liability is reflected as change in derivative liability in the statement of operations.
Revenue Recognition – The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). This standard includes a comprehensive evaluation of factors to be considered regarding revenue recognition including (i) identifying the promised goods, (ii) evaluating performance obligations, (iii) measuring the transaction price, (iv) allocating the transaction price to the performance obligations if there are multiple components, and (v) recognizing revenue as each obligation is satisfied. The Company’s revenue transactions include a single component, specifically, the shipment of goods to customers as orders are fulfilled. The Company recognizes revenue upon shipment. The timing of the shipment of orders can vary considerably depending upon whether an order is for an item normally maintained in inventory or an order that requires assembly or unique parts. Customer deposits totaled $45,123 and $155,986 at July 31, 2023 and April 30, 2023, respectively.
| 10 |
Research and Development – Research and development expenses include payroll, employee benefits, and other headcount-related expenses associated with product development. Research and development expenses also include third-party development and programming costs, as well as a proportionate share of overhead costs such as rent. Costs related to software development are included in research and development expense until technological feasibility is reached, which for our software products, is generally shortly before the products are released to production. Once technological feasibility is reached, such costs are capitalized and amortized as a cost of revenue over the estimated lives of the products.
Income Taxes – Deferred taxes are provided on the liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements – Management does not believe that recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Foreign Currency – The functional currency of our international subsidiary, Skyset, is the local Italian currency. For that subsidiary, we translate assets and liabilities to U.S. dollars using period-end exchange rates, and average monthly exchange rates for revenues, costs, and expenses. We record translation gains and losses in accumulated other comprehensive income.
Comprehensive Loss – Comprehensive loss consists of net loss and other comprehensive loss. Other comprehensive loss refers to gains and losses that are recorded as an element of stockholders' equity and are excluded from net loss. Our other comprehensive loss is comprised of foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains or losses on available-for-sale securities. During the three months ended July 31, 2023 and July 31, 2022, comprehensive loss was $291,035 and $133,934 lower than net loss, respectively, related to unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities totaling $289,389 and $133,582, respectively, and foreign currency translation adjustments of $1,646 and $352.
Stock-Based Compensation – Stock options are valued using the estimated grant-date fair value method of accounting in accordance with ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. Fair value is determined based on the Black-Scholes Model using inputs reflecting our estimates of expected volatility, term and future dividends. We recognize forfeitures as they occur. The fair value of restricted stock is based on our stock price on the date of grant. Compensation costs is recognized on a straight-line basis over the service period which is the vesting term.

Segment Reporting
Since January 2020, we have acquired four separate businesses operating in various aspects of the drone industry. Following the Teal acquisition in August 2021, we focused on integrating and organizing these businesses. Effective May 1, 2022, we established the Enterprise and Consumer segments in order to sharpen our focus on the unique opportunities in each sector. Enterprise's initial strategy was to provide UAV's, primarily drones, to commercial enterprises, including the military, to navigate dangerous military environments and confined industrial and commercial interior spaces. Subsequently, Enterprise narrowed its near-term focus on the military and other government agencies. Skypersonic's technology has been re-focused on military applications and its operations consolidated into Teal. The Consumer segment, which includes Fat Shark and Rotor Riot, is focused on hobbyists and enthusiasts which are expected to increase as drones become more visible in our daily lives. The reportable segments were established based on how our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), which is a committee comprised of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), Chief Operating Officer (“COO”) and our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), manages our business, makes resource allocation and operating decisions, and evaluates operating performance. See “Note 21 - Segment Reporting”.

Note 3 – Discontinued Operations – Sale of Consumer Segment
In November 2022, the Company agreed to the sale of its consumer segment consisting of Rotor Riot, (“RR”), and Fat Shark Holdings (“FS”). The closing of the transaction is subject to the successful initial public offering by the buyer, Unusual Machines, Inc.

Drones. The Company completes a formal evaluation of the carrying value of its intangible assets, including goodwill, at the end of
each fiscal year. Based on (i) the operating results for Skypersonic since its acquisition in May 2021, (ii) its consolidation into

Note 19 – Derivatives
The Company completed financings in October 2020 and January 2021 which included notes and warrants containing embedded features subject to derivative accounting. Both the notes and the warrants included provisions which provided for a reduction in the conversion and exercise prices, respectively, if the Company completed a future qualified offering at a lower price. These provisions represent embedded derivatives which are valued separately from the host instrument (meaning the notes and warrants) and recognized as derivative liabilities on the Company's balance sheet. The Company initially measures these financial instruments at their estimated fair value and recognizes changes in their estimated fair value in results of operations during the period of change. The Company also measures these financial instruments on the date of settlement (meaning when the note is converted, or the warrant is exercised) at their estimated fair value and recognizes changes in their estimated fair value in results of operations. Any discount in the carrying value of the note is fully amortized on the date of settlement and recognized as interest expense. The Company estimated the fair value of these embedded derivatives using a multinomial lattice model. The range of underlying assumptions used in the binomial model to determine the fair value of the derivative warrant liability upon settlement of the derivative liability and as of July 31, 2023 and April 30, 2023 are set forth below. In addition, the Company's stock price on each measurement date was used in the model.
| July 31, 2023 | April 30, 2023 | |||||||
| Risk-free interest rate | % | – % | ||||||
| Expected dividend yield | ||||||||
| Expected term (in years) | – | – | ||||||
| Expected volatility | – % | – % |
As of July 31, 2023, all of the notes had been converted into common stock and 806,666 of the warrants were outstanding. Changes in the derivative liability during the three months ended July 31, 2023 and the year ended April 30, 2023 were as follows:
| July 31, 2023 | April 30, 2023 | |||||||
| Balance, beginning of period | $ | $ | ||||||
| Additions | ||||||||
| Eliminated upon conversion of notes/exercise of warrants | ||||||||
| Changes in fair value | ( | ) | ( | ) | ||||
| Balance, end of period | $ | $ | ||||||
Changes in fair value primarily relate to changes in the Company’s stock price during the period, with increases in the stock price increasing the liability and decreases in the stock price reducing the liability.

Note 22 - Sale of Consumer Segment
In November 2022, the Board of Directors approved a Stock Purchase Agreement (the "SPA") between the Company, Unusual Machines and Jeffrey Thompson, the founder and Chief Executive Officer of the Company (the “Principal Stockholder”), related to the sale of the Company’s consumer segment consisting of Rotor Riot, (“RR”), and Fat Shark Holdings (“FS”), to UM. In March 2023, shareholders approved the sale.
The final, amended purchase price of $20 million includes $3 million in cash, payable at closing, with the remaining $17 million consisting of shares of common stock of Unusual Machines. The purchase price will be adjusted for working capital on the closing date (increased for positive working capital and decreased for negative working capital). The Company estimates that working capital at closing will range between $3.0 to $4.5 million. The number of shares of UM’s common stock (the “Unusual Common Stock”) to be issued will be based on the initial public offering price for the Unusual Common Stock. All of the Unusual Common Stock will be subject to a lock-up of 180 days and be eligible for registration. The closing of the SPA is subject to the successful completion of an initial public offering (the “IPO”) by UM in the minimum amount of $5 million, and the listing of UM’s common stock on a public stock exchange such as the NYSE or Nasdaq. UM filed a registration statement on Form S-1 for an initial public offering of its Common Stock with the SEC. UM is required to deposit $1.0 million cash with the Company upon effectiveness of the registration statement with the SEC.
Note 23 – Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Proceedings
In the ordinary course of business, we may be involved, at times, in various legal proceedings involving a variety of matters. We do not believe there are any pending legal proceedings that will have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. However, the outcome of such legal matters is inherently unpredictable and subject to significant uncertainties. We have not recorded any litigation reserves as of April 30, 2023.
One pending legal matter is an action filed against Teal Drones and the Company in a U.S. District Court in California. The complaint asserts claims for breach of contract, and the unlawful conversion and sale of shares of common stock that plaintiff alleges to have purchased in Teal prior to its acquisition by the Company. The complaint also alleges breach of fiduciary duty and seeks in excess of $1 million in damages. The Company is asserting vigorous defenses to the complaint.

Recent Developments
Corporate developments during the two years ended July 31, 2023 include:
Capital Transactions
During the first quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company completed two firm commitment underwritten public offerings with ThinkEquity, a division of Fordham Financial Management. The first offering, in May 2021, generated gross and net proceeds of $16 and $14.6 million, respectively. The second offering, in July 2021, generated gross and net proceeds of $60 and $55.5 million, respectively.
Plan of Operations
Since April 2016, the Company's primary business has been to provide products, services, and solutions to the drone industry which it presently does through its four wholly owned subsidiaries. Beginning in January 2020, the Company expanded the scope of its drone products and services through four acquisitions, including:
| A. | In January 2020, the Company acquired Rotor Riot, a provider of First Person View (FPV) drones and equipment, primarily to the consumer marketplace. The purchase price was $1,995,114. |
| B. | In November 2020, the Company acquired Fat Shark Holdings, a provider of FPV video goggles to the drone industry. The purchase price was $8,354,076. |
| C. | In May 2021, the Company acquired Skypersonic which provides hardware and software solutions that enable drones to complete inspection services in locations where GPS is not available, yet still record and transmit data even while being operated from thousands of miles away. The purchase price was $2,791,012. |
| D. | In August 2021, the Company acquired Teal Drones, a leader in commercial and government UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) technology. The purchase price was $10,011,279. |
Following the Teal acquisition, we focused on integrating and organizing these businesses. Effective May 1, 2022, we established the Enterprise and Consumer segments in order to sharpen our focus on the unique opportunities in each sector. Enterprise's initial strategy was to provide UAV's, primarily drones, to commercial enterprises, and government agencies including the military, to navigate dangerous military environments and confined industrial and commercial interior spaces. Subsequently, Enterprise narrowed its near-term focus on the military and other government agencies. Skypersonic's technology has been re-focused on military applications and its operations consolidated into Teal. The Consumer segment, which includes Fat Shark and Rotor Riot, is focused on hobbyists and enthusiasts which are expected to increase as drones become more visible and useful in our daily lives.
| 24 |
In November 2022, we entered into an agreement to sell our Consumer segment to Unusual Machines. The adjusted sale price is $20 million, including $3 million in cash, at closing, and $17 million in securities of Unusual Machines. The agreement reflects the Company's decision to focus its efforts and capital on military and defense where it believes that there are more opportunities to create long term shareholder value. The closing of the transaction is contingent upon Unusual Machines completing (i) an initial public offering that raises sufficient capital to close the transaction, and (ii) a listing on a public stock exchange such as the NYSE or Nasdaq.
Results of Operations - Continuing Operations
The analysis of the Company's results of continuing operations for the three months ended July 31, 2023 compared to the three months ended July 31, 2022 includes only the Company's Enterprise Segment which includes Teal Drones and Skypersonic. During Fiscal 2023, the operations of Skypersonic were consolidated into Teal. The following discussion and analysis describes the operating results of Teal and Skypersonic on a consolidated basis with Teal representing more than 90% of the operating activities of the Enterprise Segment.
Discussion and Analysis of the Three Months Ended July 31, 2023 compared to the Three Months Ended July 31, 2022
Revenues
Revenues totaled $1,748,129 during the three months ended July 31, 2023 (or the "2023 period") compared to $1,126,551 during the three months ended July 31, 2022 (or the "2022 period") representing an increase of $621,578, or 55%. The increase related exclusively to higher product sales related to the launch of the Teal 2 in April 2023. Product sales totaled $1,413,127 during the three months ended July 31, 2023 compared to $700,214 during the three months ended July 31, 2022 representing an increase of $712,913, or more than 100%. The increase in product sales was partially offset by lower contract revenues during the 2023 period. Contract revenues totaled $310,881 during the 2023 period compared to $398,499 during the 2022 period, representing a decrease of $87,618, or 22%. Contract revenues are primarily sourced through government agencies and can fluctuate from period to period based on the timing of awards and amendments.
Gross Margin
Gross margin totaled $174,665 during the 2023 period compared to $82,120 during the 2022 period representing an increase of $92,545, or more than 100%. On a percentage basis, gross margin was 10.0% during the 2023 period compared to 7.3% during the 2022 period. The percentage basis increase in gross margin in the 2023 period was primarily related to lower relative labor costs as recently hired manufacturing operators replaced higher compensated engineers in performing many production activities. Our manufacturing facility is presently producing drones at a lower level than it is designed for, and these lower production levels, combined with higher overhead costs, continue to result in lower than targeted gross margins. As production levels increase, our fixed overhead costs, including labor, will be allocated to a greater number of drones which will drive our per-drone production costs lower and increase gross margins.
Operating Expenses
Operations expenses totaled $707,903 during the 2023 period compared to $886,303 during the 2022 period, resulting in a decrease of $178,400, or 20%. This decrease is primarily due to lower payroll costs, controlled spending on manufacturing supplies, and lower office expenses related to fewer new hires in the 2023 period.
Research and development expenses totaled $1,138,127 during the three months ended July 31, 2023 compared to $449,964 during the three months ended July 31, 2022, representing an increase of $688,163, or more than 100% Payroll expense totaled $699,385 in the 2023 period compared to $316,223 in the 2022 period. This increase of $383,162, or more than 100%, primarily related to increased efforts in developing new products and represented 58% of the total increase in research and development costs. Higher professional services fees and increased office costs represented 22% and 16% of the increase, respectively.
| 25 |
Sales and marketing costs totaled $986,908 during the 2023 period compared to $406,953 during the 2022 period, representing an increase of $579,955 or more than 100%. Headcount for sales, customer service, and marketing totaled 11 at the end of the 2023 period compared to 5 at the end of the 2022 period, resulting in total payroll expense of $428,464 in the 2023 period compared to $187,732 in the 2022 period. This increase of $240,732, or more than 100%, represented 42% of the total increase in sales and marketing costs. Higher office and travel-related expenses represented 32% and 19% of the increase, respectively.
General and administrative expenses totaled $1,443,156 during the three months ended July 31, 2023 compared to $1,062,404 during the three months ended July 31, 2022, representing an increase of $380,752 or 36%. Higher costs at the corporate level represented 57% of the increase. Corporate includes executive compensation and other administrative costs associated with operating a publicly traded company including departments such as finance, human resources, and administration. Other significant costs include professional services fees (legal, audit, and board compensation), Nasdaq listing fees and filing costs, and corporate insurance. Specific increases in costs included payroll which totaled $534,764 in the 2023 period compared to $353,135 in the 2022 period resulting in an increase of $181,629 or 48% of the total increase in general and administrative expenses. Legal and lobbying services costs totaled $281,587 in the 2023 period compared to $89,739, representing an increase of $191,848, or 50% of the total increase.
During the three months ended July 31, 2023, we incurred stock-based compensation costs of $911,606 compared to $755,471 in the 2022 period, resulting in an increase of $156,135 or 21%. Since the 2022 period, the Company issued 3,900,542 additional options and 298,643 additional RSUs which resulted in incremental stock-based compensation costs of $442,639 and $93,749, respectively. This increase was partially offset by an RSU award that fully vested since the 2022 period, resulting in decremental stock-based compensation expense of $336,252.
Other (Income) Expense
Other expense totaled $554,740 during the 2023 period compared to $113,227 during the 2022 period, representing an increase of $441,513 or greater than 100%. This increase in other expense was primarily related to higher depreciation and amortization expense which totaled $101,001 and $217,368, respectively, during the 2023 period compared to $28,272 and $56,160, respectively during the 2022 period resulting in an increase of $72,729 and $161,208, respectively, collectively representing 53% of the total increase in other expense. Higher depreciation expense related to approximately $2 million in capital expenditures since the 2022 period, primarily related to the construction of the new manufacturing facility in Salt Lake City, Utah. Higher amortization expense related to amortization of intangible assets acquired through acquisitions, especially Teal.
Investment income totaled $130,296 during the three months ended July 31, 2022 compared to an investment loss of $239,490 during the three months ended July 31, 2023. During the 2023 period, the Company sold certain investment grade securities in order to fund operations. The fair value of these securities had been adversely impacted by the sharp increase in interest rates since the securities were acquired. Changes in the fair value of the derivative liability resulted in an expense of $92,922 during the 2022 period compared to income of $26,520 during the 2023 period, representing a net beneficial difference of $119,442.
Net Loss from Continuing Operations
Net loss from continuing operations totaled $5,567,775 for the three months ended July 31, 2023, compared to $3,592,202 for the three months ended July 31, 2022, resulting in an increase of $1,975,573 or 55%. Total operating expenses totaled $5,187,700, or 93% of net loss from continuing operations. Higher operating expenses represented 82% of the total increase in the net loss and were driven by an increase in headcount from 63 at the end of the 2022 period to 74 at the end of the 2023 period which was an increase of 17%. Other expenses totaled $554,740 during the three months ended July 31, 2023, compared to $113,227 for the three months ended July 31, 2022, representing an increase of $441,513, or more than 100%. The increase in other expenses represented 22% of the total increase in the net loss and were driven by a $369,786 decrease in investment income as the Company was forced to sell certain investment grade securities at a loss which were adversely impacted by a sharp increase in interest rates.
Results of Discontinued Operations
Revenue from discontinued operations totaled $1,869,219 for the three months ended July 31, 2023, compared to $1,942,720 for the three months ended July 31, 2022, representing a decrease of $73,501 or 4%. During the 2023 period, Rotor Riot generated revenues totaling $1,243,907 compared to $888,419 during the 2022 period, representing an increase of $355,488 or 40%. During the 2023 period, Rotor Riot’s higher revenues were generated by a significant increase in digital marketing spending. During the 2023 period, Fat Shark generated revenues totaling $625,312 compared to $1,054,301 during the 2022 period, representing a decrease of $428,989 or 41%. Lower revenues for the 2023 period related to its newest product, the Dominator, which was launched at the beginning of Fiscal 2023, and while it generated strong initial sales in the first quarter, sales declined significantly since the 2022 period.
| 26 |
Gross margin from discontinued operations totaled $484,103 during the 2023 period compared to $275,507 during the 2022 period representing an increase of $208,596, or 76%. On a percentage basis, gross margin from discontinued operations was 26% during the 2023 period compared to 14% during the 2022 period. The percentage basis increase in gross margin in the 2023 period primarily related to successful efforts to reduce tariff expenses for Rotor Riot’s inventory purchases.
Operating expenses totaled $703.939 during the 2023 period compared to $495.028 during the 2022 period, resulting in an increase of $208,911, or 42%. This increase is primarily due to increased advertising expenses in the 2023 period.
Net loss from discontinued operations totaled $242,573 for the three months ended July 31, 2023, compared to $219,397 for the three months ended July 31, 2022, representing an increase of $23,176, or 11%.
Cash Flows
Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities was $6,926,069 during the three months ended July 31, 2023, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $3,814,762 during the three months ended July 31, 2022, representing an increase of $3,111,307 or 82%. Net cash used in operations, net of non-cash expenses, totaled $4,071,684 during the three months ended July 31, 2023, compared to $2,648,702 during the three months ended July 31, 2022, resulting in an increase of $1,422,982, or 54%. The higher use of cash primarily related to the expansion of the Teal Drones operations since its acquisition in August 2021. Headcount at Teal increased from 47 at the end of the 2022 period to 60 at the end of the 2023 period which was an increase of 28%. Net cash used related to changes in operating assets and liabilities totaled $2,854,385 during the three months ended July 31, 2023, compared to $1,166,060 during the three months ended July 31, 2022, representing an increase of $1,688,325 or more than 100%. Changes in operating assets and liabilities can fluctuate significantly from period to period depending upon the timing and level of multiple factors, including inventory purchases and vendor payments. Net payments related to inventory, including deposits, totaled $1,804,886 in the 2023 period compared to $227,516 in the 2022 period, representing an increase of $1,577,370, or more than 100%. This increase represented 93% of the total increase in operating assets and liabilities.
Investing Activities
Net cash provided by investing activities was $4,883,345 during the three months ended July 31, 2023, compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $7,659,707 during the three months ended July 31, 2022 resulting in a decrease of $2,776,362 or 36%. During the 2023 period, proceeds of $4,888,399 from the sale of marketable securities were used to fund operations. During the 2022 period, proceeds from the sale of marketable securities, net of purchases of marketable securities, totaled $8,204,649. During the 2023 period, the Company was spending the proceeds from the 2022 period stock offerings to support operations for the full year, whereas in the 2022 period the proceeds from the stock offerings were invested in marketable securities and also used to support operations for the second half of the 2022 period.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities totaled $146,509 during the three months ended July 31, 2023, compared to net cash used in financing activities of $685,281 during the three months ended July 31, 2022. Financing activities can vary from period to period depending upon market conditions, both at a macro-level and specific to the Company. During the 2023 period, the Company made payments of $8,520 related to payroll taxes on equity awards compared to payments of $469,631 during the 2022 period, resulting in a decrease of $461,111. This decrease represented 86% of the total decrease. The lower payments related to lower equity award vesting in the 2023 period compared to the 2022 period.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At July 31, 2023, the Company reported current assets totaling $26,523,312, current liabilities totaling $3,577,912 and net working capital of $22,945,400. Cash and marketable securities totaled $8,875,169 at July 31, 2023. Inventory related balances, including pre-paid inventory, totaled $15,508,659. We continue to maintain higher-than-normal inventory balances related to the global supply chain issues, including chip shortages, which continue to impact the timing of our purchase decisions.
| 27 |
Going Concern
The Company has never been profitable, and its net losses have been increasing related to acquisitions, as well as costs incurred to pursue its long-term growth strategy. During the three months ended July 31, 2023, the Company incurred net losses of $5,567,775 from continuing operations and $242,573 from discontinued operations and used cash in operating activities of $6,926,069 from continuing operations and $356,109 from discontinued operations. As of July 31, 2023, the Company has working capital of $22,945,400. While the Company has historically been successful in raising capital to meet its working capital requirements, the ability to continue raising such capital to enable the Company to continue its growth is not guaranteed. Therefore, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern as the Company will require additional liquidity to continue its operations and meet its financial obligations for twelve months from the date these consolidated financial statements are issued.
If the Company is unable to raise additional capital, there is a risk that the Company could default on its financial obligations and could be required to discontinue or significantly reduce the scope of its operations. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or the amount and classification of liabilities or any other adjustment that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
We regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements. A complete summary of these policies is included in the notes to our financial statements. In general, management's estimates are based on historical experience, information from third party professionals, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.
Significant estimates reflected in these financial statements include those used to (i) determine stock-based compensation, (ii) complete purchase price accounting for acquisitions, (iii) accounting for derivatives, and (iv) reserves and allowances related to accounts receivable and inventory.
Goodwill and Long-lived Assets – Goodwill represents the future economic benefit arising from other assets acquired in an acquisition that are not individually identified and separately recognized. We test goodwill for impairment in accordance with the provisions of ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other, (“ASC 350”). Goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually at the reporting unit level or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired. ASC 350 provides that an entity has the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is 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, an entity determines it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then additional impairment testing is not required. However, if an entity concludes otherwise, then it is required to perform an impairment test. The impairment test involves comparing the estimated fair value of a reporting unit with its book value, including goodwill. If the estimated fair value exceeds book value, goodwill is considered not to be impaired. If, however, the fair value of the reporting unit is less than book value, then an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the amount that the book value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit.
The estimate of fair value of a reporting unit is computed using either an income approach, a market approach, or a combination of both. Under the income approach, we utilize the discounted cash flow method to estimate the fair value of a reporting unit. Significant assumptions inherent in estimating the fair values include the estimated future cash flows, growth assumptions for future revenues (including gross margin, operating expenses, and capital expenditures), and a rate used to discount estimated future cash flow projections to their present value based on estimated weighted average cost of capital (i.e., the selected discount rate). Our assumptions our based on historical data, supplemented by current and anticipated market conditions, estimated growth rates, and management’s plans. Under the market approach, fair value is derived from metrics of publicly traded companies or historically completed transactions of comparable businesses. The selection of comparable businesses is based on the markets in which the reporting units operate and consider risk profiles, size, geography, and diversity of products and services.

Fair Values, Inputs and Valuation Techniques for Financial Assets and Liabilities and Related Disclosures – The fair value measurements and disclosure guidance defines fair value and establishes a framework for measuring fair value. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In accordance with this guidance, the Company has categorized its recurring basis financial assets and liabilities into a three-level fair value hierarchy based on the priority of the inputs to the valuation technique.
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
The guidance establishes three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:
Level 1: Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date;
Level 2: Inputs are observable, unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the related assets or liabilities; and
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities that are supported by little or no market data.
Financial Instruments
The Company's financial instruments mainly consist of cash, receivables, current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and debt. The carrying amounts of cash, receivables, current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and current debt approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.
Derivative Liabilities
The Company has financial instruments that are considered derivatives or contain embedded features subject to derivative accounting. Embedded derivatives are valued separately from the host instrument and are recognized as liabilities on the Company's balance sheet. The Company measures these instruments at their estimated fair value and recognizes changes in their estimated fair value in results of operations during the period of change.
In October 2020 and January 2021, the Company entered into convertible note agreements which included provisions under which the conversion price was equal to the lesser of an initial stated amount or the conversion price of a future offering. This variable conversion feature was recognized as a derivative. Both financings included the issuance of warrants which contained similar variable conversion features. The Company values these convertible notes and warrants using the multinomial lattice method. The valuation is updated each reporting date with the change in the liability reflected as a change in derivative liability in the statement of operations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

The term “disclosure controls and procedures” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) means controls and other procedures of the Company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in reports, such as this report, that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Based on that evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of July 31, 2023.
