Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of the Business
REGO Payment
Architectures, Inc. (“REGO”) was incorporated in the state of Delaware on
REGO Payment Architectures, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, except where the context requires, the “Company”) is a provider of consumer software that delivers a mobile payment platform solution—Mazoola® - a family focused mobile banking solution. Headquartered in Blue Bell, Pennsylvania, the Company maintains a portfolio of trade secrets and four US patent awards. REGO offers an all-digital financial payments platform (the “Platform”) to enable minors, particularly under 13 years old, to purchase goods and services, complete chores and learn in a secure online environment guided by parental permission, oversight, and control, while remaining Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”) and General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) compliant.
Management believes that building on its COPPA advantage, the future of REGO Payment Architectures, Inc. will be based on the foundational architecture of the Platform that will allow its use across multiple financial markets where secure controlled payments are needed. The Company intends to license in each alternative field of use the ability for its partners, distributors and/or value-added resellers to private label each of the alternative markets. These partners would deploy, customize and support each implementation under their own label, but with acknowledgement of the Company’s proprietary intellectual assets as the base technology. Management believes this approach will enable the Company to reduce expenses while broadening its reach.
Revenues generated from the Platform will come from multiple sources depending on the level of service and facilities requested by the parent. The Company’s model contemplates levels of subscription revenue paid monthly, service fees, transaction fees and revenue sharing and licensing with banking and distribution partners.
The Company’s principal office is located in Blue Bell, Pennsylvania.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). These statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which management believes necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements and have been prepared on a consistent basis using the accounting policies described in the summary of accounting policies included in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Form 10-K”). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been condensed, or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the accompanying disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The accompanying unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 as filed with the SEC. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025.
The Company’s activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including failing to secure additional financing to operationalize the Company’s current technology before another company develops or markets similar technology to compete with the Company.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires public entities to disclose significant segment expenses and other segment items on an interim and annual basis and provide in interim periods all disclosures about a reportable segment's profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually. The ASU does not change how a public entity identifies its operating segments, aggregates them, or applies the quantitative threshold to determine its reportable segments. The new disclosure requirements are also applicable to entities that account and report as a single operating segment entity. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company adopted the guidance for the annual reporting period ended December 31, 2024. There was no impact on the Company’s reportable segments identified and additional required disclosures have been included in Note 15, Segment Reporting.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures which requires public entities to disclose specific categories in the effective tax rate reconciliation, as well as expanded disclosures on income taxes paid by jurisdictions. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact related to the adoption of ASU 2023-09 on its consolidated financial statement disclosures.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (Topic 220), which requires disclosure in the notes to financial statements about specific types of expenses included in the expense captions presented on the face of the statement of operations. The requirements of the ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The requirements will be applied prospectively with the option for retrospective application. The Company is currently evaluating the impact related to the adoption of ASU 2024-03 on its consolidated financial statement disclosures.
NOTE 2 – MANAGEMENT PLANS
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred significant losses and experienced negative cash flow from operations since inception. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Since inception, the Company has focused on developing and implementing its business plan. The Company believes that its existing cash resources will not be sufficient to sustain operations during the next twelve months. The Company currently needs to generate revenue in order to sustain its operations. In the event that the Company cannot generate sufficient revenue to sustain its operations, the Company will need to reduce expenses or obtain financing through the sale of debt and/or equity securities. The issuance of additional equity would result in dilution to existing shareholders. If the Company is unable to obtain additional funds when they are needed or if such funds cannot be obtained on terms acceptable to the Company, the Company would be unable to execute upon the business plan or pay costs and expenses as they are incurred, which would have a material, adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of operations.
The Company’s current monetization model is to derive revenues from levels of service fees, transaction fees and in some cases, revenue sharing with banking and distribution partners. As these bases of revenues grow, the Company expects to generate additional revenue to support operations.
As of November 14, 2025, the Company has a cash
position of approximately $

Issuance of Restricted Shares
A restricted
stock award (“RSA”) is an award of common shares that is subject to certain restrictions during a specified period. Restricted
stock awards are independent of option grants and are generally subject to forfeiture if employment terminates prior to the release of

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Overview
REGO Payment Architectures, Inc. is a provider of consumer software that delivers a mobile payment platform— Mazoola® - a family focused mobile banking solution. Headquartered in Blue Bell, Pennsylvania, the Company maintains a portfolio of trade secrets and four US patent awards. REGO offers an all-digital financial payments platform to enable minors, particularly under 13 years old, to transact, complete chores and learn in a secure online environment guided by parental permission, oversight, and control, while remaining COPPA and GDPR compliant.
COPPA applies not only to websites and mobile apps. It can apply to a growing list of connected devices that is included in the Internet of Things. Some of these include toys and products that could collect personal information, such as voice recordings or geolocation information. Non-compliance with COPPA has meant substantial fines for many violators.
Management believes that by building on its COPPA compliance advantage, the future of REGO Payment Architectures, Inc. will be based on the foundational architecture of its software platform (the “Platform”) that will allow its use across multiple financial markets where secure controlled payments are needed. The Company intends to license in each alternative field of use the ability for its partners, distributors and/or value-added resellers to private label each of the alternative markets. These partners would deploy, customize and support each implementation under their own label, but with acknowledgement of the Company’s proprietary intellectual assets as the base technology. Management believes this approach will enable the Company to reduce marketing expenses while broadening its reach.
Further, California passed the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”) on June 28, 2018. CCPA gives consumers (defined as natural citizens who are California residents) four rights relative to their personal information as follows:
| ● | the right to know, through a general privacy policy and with more specifics available upon request, what personal information a business has collected about them, where it was sourced from, what it is being used for, whether it is being disclosed or sold, and to whom it is being disclosed or sold; |
| 17 |
| ● | the right to “opt out” of allowing a business to sell their personal information to third parties (or, for consumers who are under 16 years old, the right not to have their personal information sold absent their, or their parent’s, opt-in); |
| ● | the right to have a business delete their personal information, with some exceptions; and |
| ● | the right to receive equal service and pricing from a business, even if they exercise their privacy rights under the CCPA. |
With respect to the evolving CCPA, the Company has designed its Platform and app to be in compliance.
Additionally, the European Parliament and Council agreed upon the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) in April 2016, to replace the Data Protection Directive 95/46/EC. This is the primary law regulating how companies protect European Union (“EU”) citizens’ personal data. GDPR became effective on May 25, 2018. Companies that fail to achieve GDPR compliance are subject to severe fines and penalties.
GDPR requirements apply to each member state of the European Union, aiming to create more consistent protection of consumer and personal data across EU nations. Some of the key privacy and data protection requirements of the GDPR include:
| ● | Requiring the consent of subjects for data processing |
| ● | Anonymizing collected data to protect privacy |
| ● | Providing data breach notifications |
| ● | Safely handling the transfer of data across borders |
| ● | Requiring certain companies to appoint a data protection officer to oversee GDPR compliance |
In short, the handling of EU citizens’ data is mandated by GDPR using a baseline set of standards for companies that are designed to better safeguard the processing and movement of personal data. The Company has designed its Platform and app to be in compliance with GDPR, and has received the GDPRkidsTM Trustmark from PRIVO.
We anticipate that revenues generated from the Platform will come from multiple sources depending on the level of service and facilities requested. There would be levels of subscription revenue paid monthly, service fees, transaction fees and in some cases, revenue sharing and licensing with banking and distribution partners.
Our goal, moving forward, is to enable both incumbent and new financial technology (“FinTech”) participants, as well as key verticals with a large base of ‘family accounts,’ to provide their consumers with safe and empowering youth money management and financial literacy content and tools via the mobile payment platform.
While some of the REGO Platform can be easily duplicated/commoditized, such as the app skin, APIs to retailers, APIs to financial infrastructure and cloud storage, we believe that defending our market position rests on three factors:
| 1. | The ability to define data control settings from parent to child. |
Our approach to this opportunity uses a master account to dictate purchase rules to sub-accounts via a hierarchical architecture. This approach adheres to data flow and privacy policy requirements specifically outlined for COPPA compliance. We believe other approaches based on machine learning, or other artificial intelligence methodologies are potentially viable alternatives but are likely too costly, do not meet current compliance timelines, and may defy the core of COPPA’s “opt-in” parameters. There is considerable room for next-generation automation techniques to be layered on REGO’s hierarchical approach. Given its current stability and scalability metrics, the REGO Platform strongly features these advances in its technical development roadmap without compromising any of its current data control performance.
| 18 |
| 2. | The ability to (mis)attribute the child’s transaction and personal identification. |
REGO has solved this issue by masking user data and maintaining separate identity and financial data flows. As a result, REGO can verify the age of the internet user through the transaction lifecycle on its Platform. Authenticating and validating the identity of the actual user on the internet remains one of the more difficult cybersecurity challenges. Current approaches are mainly not for commercial use; however, there is investment in commercial innovation in this area. REGO’s data control features and its (mis)attribution approach are inextricably linked and a key to its scalability and extensibility.
| 3. | The ability to disseminate transactional data on minors while remaining COPPA and GDPR compliant. |
The highest value data will be that which shows the most nuanced detail afforded under current regulations. Without extreme data control features, such as in the REGO Platform, any lesser data precision will be less valuable.
These three factors are all supported by REGO’s patented technology.
REGO addresses hard industry problems such as:
| ● | COPPA compliant technology with a key component being its ability to verify the age of an internet user |
| ● | A master and sub-account architecture with the ability to administer user-specific controls |
| ● | An advanced rules engine to provide strict automated compliance of the parental rules for each child |
| ● | Near real-time buying behavior database on minors - anonymized geolocation, age range and purchases |
Currently, we are targeting established brands with large family-focused account bases — including banks, telecommunication companies, faith-based organizations, media distributors, mobile device Original Equipment Manufacturers (“OEMs”), and merchants.
We are seeking partners that will leverage our Platform to:
Buy vs. Build: Partners can license or revenue share for their specific market or field of use a safe, compliant system, instead of building one on their own.
Safety & Security: Partners can safely engage a younger consumer segment and their families with a new family friendly peer-to-peer-payment approach. Vendors will be explicitly protected from non-compliant transactions and the underlying technology protects the privacy of the user.
Youth Financial Literacy: Partners can expand their brand story around empowerment and education of youth financial literacy while engaging their ‘future customers’ with Gen Z, a digital native population of post-millennial youth.
The REGO Mazoola® app and associated digital wallet technology is designed to enable our partners to engage families with Gen Z and Gen Alpha youths through a money management, transactional and financial literacy platform that enables young people to make smart decisions about the things they value in life — including their money, their time, their ideas and their connections. The Mazoola® app enables a new way for individual users to own and monetize their purchasing behavior that is currently unavailable to them.
In addition, we are analyzing specific components of our technology for individual monetization as well as exploring opportunities in the Business to Business (“B2B”) realm.
Other markets for potential licensed applications are:
| ● | Government social services payments where control over how benefits allowances are used is required. This is particularly necessary in some European countries where social benefits are not being used as intended by the government or where benefits are subject to fraud. |
| 19 |
| ● | Closed network consumer to business (C2B) and business to business (B2B). An example is school lunch programs where the consumer can make direct mobile payments to the provider’s point of sale (POS) terminal without the need to traverse the traditional merchant payment system. This reduces the cost per transaction for the vendor and provides instant non-repudiated settlement. Many school lunch programs are now provided by large catering companies. This is particularly valuable as credit card fees, transaction fees and service fees can exceed 3% in overhead costs per transaction dependent on the negotiated rate. Removing this overhead can have significant positive financial impact on profitably. It also allows the closed network to own its own behavioral use data thus obviating the need to pay a third party for the same data. |
| ● | Integration of our certified COPPA-compliant white label Family Wallet Banking-as-a-Platform into digital banking platforms. This will make the Company’s family wallet available to financial institutions which will allow end-user customers of subscribing financial institutions to utilize the Company’s family wallet. |
We believe that our near-term success will depend particularly on our ability to develop customer awareness and confidence in our service. Since we have extremely limited capital resources, we will need to closely manage our expenses and conserve our cash by continually monitoring any increase in expenses and reducing or eliminating unnecessary expenditures. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties encountered by companies at an early stage of development, particularly given that we operate in new and rapidly evolving markets, that we have limited financial resources, and face an uncertain economic environment. We may not be successful in addressing such risks and difficulties.
Results of Operations
Comparison of the Three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024
The following discussion analyzes our results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. The following information should be considered together with our condensed financial statements for such period and the accompanying notes thereto.
Net Revenue
We have not generated significant revenue since our inception. For the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, we generated revenues of $0 and $0.
Net Loss
For the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, we had a net loss of $2,417,183 and $2,173,987.
Transaction Expense
Transaction expense for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was $40,057 compared to $86,955 for the three months ended September 30, 2024. These are transactional charges primarily for the operation of the Mazoola® app. The decrease is attributed to a diminished focus on the business-to-consumer marketspace for the three months ended September 30, 2025 when compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024.
Sales and Marketing
Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2025 were $204,011 compared to $116,605 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, an increase of $87,406. The increase was due to higher event expenditures along with higher marketing options expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024.
Product Development
Product development expenses were $808,782 and $912,706 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, a decrease of $103,924. Decreases in consultant and payroll costs were slightly offset by an increase in integration costs associated with the rollout of the Platform to subscribing financial institutions for the three months ended September 30, 2025 when compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024.
| 20 |
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses increased $257,158 to $1,067,569 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from $810,411 for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase is attributed to higher consulting options expense for the three months ended September 30, 2025 when compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024.
Interest Expense, net
During the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company incurred interest expense, net of interest income of $296,764 compared to $247,310 for the three months ended September 30, 2024, an increase of $49,454. The increase in interest expense relates to increased levels of outstanding debt resulting from the issuance of additional 10% Secured Promissory Notes.
Dividend Accrual
Accrued preferred dividend expense increased by $2,992 to $707,591 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $704,599 for the three months ended September 30, 2024.
Comparison of the Nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024
The following discussion analyzes our results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024. The following information should be considered together with our condensed financial statements for such periods and the accompanying notes thereto.
Net Revenue
We have not generated significant revenue since our inception. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, we generated revenues of $0 and $0.
Net Loss
For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, we had a net loss of $7,274,014 and $7,109,131.
Transaction Expense
Transaction expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $162,525 compared to $287,288 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. These are transactional charges primarily for the operation of the Mazoola® app. The decrease is attributed to the shift away from business-to-consumer initiatives to more of a business-to-business focus.
Sales and Marketing
Sales and marketing expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 were $433,152 compared to $526,065 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, a decrease of $92,913. The decrease was due to lower marketing consulting and marketing event expenses, offset slightly by an increase in marketing options expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024.
Product Development
Product development expenses were $2,230,764 and $2,592,996 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, a decrease of $362,232. Costs attributed to the Data Center along with the timing of certain consulting expenditures led to higher costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025. This was partially offset by integration, payroll, and security/compliance cost increases associated with the rollout of the Platform to subscribing financial institutions for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024.
| 21 |
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses increased $747,386 to $3,708,707 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from $2,961,321 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. As a result of the revaluation of options awarded to certain consultants, the Company incurred additional consulting options expenses of approximately $950,000 along with an increase in professional fees. These were offset by reductions in payroll costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024.
Other Income
Other income increased by $60,176 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $0 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase is attributed primarily to proceeds received for the sale of the Oink.com domain name that occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and did not occur during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.
Interest Expense, net
During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company incurred interest expense, net of interest income of $799,042, compared to $741,461 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, an increase of $57,581. The increase in interest expense relates to increased levels of outstanding debt resulting from the issuance of additional 10% Secured Promissory Notes which occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and did not occur during the nine months ended September 30, 2024
Dividend Accrual
Accrued preferred dividend expense increased by $115,755 to $2,116,788 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $2,001,033 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of November 14, 2025 we had cash on hand of approximately $1,000,000.
Net cash used in operating activities decreased $883,578 to $4,619,801 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 as compared to $5,503,379 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease resulted primarily from the change in share-based compensation, offset by the change in the fair value of common stock issued in exchange for services compared to that of the same period in the prior year.
Net cash used in investing activities increased to $5,207 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from $1,118 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as a result of an increase in expenditures related to investments in patents.
Net cash provided by financing activities decreased to $3,305,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from $3,723,021 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Proceeds from the sale of Series B Preferred Stock decreased when compared to the prior year offset, by proceeds of 10% secured convertible notes payable to stockholders.
As we have not realized significant revenues since our inception, we have financed our operations through offerings of debt and equity securities. On March 13, 2023, the Company entered into a $20 million Investor Private Line of Credit agreement (the “LOC”) with an existing shareholder of the Company. On March 13, 2024, the Company entered into an Amendment to the LOC (the “Amendment”) with the Lender. The Amendment extended the maturity date of the existing LOC with the Lender by one year, from March 13, 2024 to March 13, 2025. The maturity date of the LOC was extended a second time on March 13, 2025 until March 13, 2026. As of September 30, 2025 the outstanding balance on this LOC is $0.
| 22 |
Since our inception, we have focused on developing and implementing our business plan. We believe that our existing cash resources will not be sufficient to sustain our operations during the next twelve months. We currently need to generate sufficient revenues to support our cost structure to enable us to pay ongoing costs and expenses as they are incurred, finance enhancements to our Platform, and execute the business plan. If we cannot generate sufficient revenue to fund our business plan, we intend to seek to raise such financing through the sale of debt and/or equity securities. The issuance of additional equity would result in dilution to existing shareholders. The issuance of convertible debt may also result in dilution to existing stockholders. If we are unable to obtain additional funds when they are needed or if such funds cannot be obtained on terms acceptable to us, we will be unable to execute upon the business plan or pay costs and expenses as they are incurred, which would have a material, adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. See Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q.
Even if we are successful in generating sufficient revenue or in raising sufficient capital in order to commercialize the Platform, our ability to continue in business as a viable going concern can only be achieved when our revenues reach a level that sustains our business operations. We do not project that significant revenue will be developed at the earliest until late fourth quarter of 2025. There can be no assurance that we will raise sufficient proceeds, or any proceeds, for us to implement fully our proposed business plan. Moreover, there can be no assurance that even if the Platform is fully developed and successfully commercialized, that we will generate revenues sufficient to fund our operations. In either such situation, we may not be able to continue our operations and our business might fail.
Based upon the current cash position and the Company’s planned expense run rate, management believes the Company will not be able to finance its operations beyond December 2025.
The foregoing forward-looking information was prepared by us in good faith based upon assumptions that we believe to be reasonable. No assurance can be given, however, regarding the attainability of the projections or the reliability of the assumptions on which they are based. The projections are subject to the uncertainties inherent in any attempt to predict the results of our operations, especially where new products and services are involved. Certain of the assumptions used will inevitably not materialize and unanticipated events will occur. Actual results of operations are, therefore, likely to vary from the projections and such variations may be material and adverse to us. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that such results will be achieved. Moreover, due to changes in technology, new product announcements, competitive pressures, system design and/or other specifications we may be required to change the current plans.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of September 30, 2025, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our financial statements are impacted by the accounting policies used and the estimates and assumptions made by management during their preparation. A complete summary of these policies is included in Note 1 of the Notes to Financial Statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. We have identified below the accounting policies that are of particular importance in the presentation of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows and which require the application of significant judgment by management.
Stock-based Compensation
We have adopted the fair value recognition provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”) 718. In addition, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 “Share-Based Payment” (“SAB 107”), which provides supplemental FASB ASC 718 application guidance based on the views of the SEC. Under FASB ASC 718, compensation cost recognized includes compensation cost for all share-based payments granted, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 718.
We have used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the option fair values. The option-pricing model requires a number of assumptions, of which the most significant are, expected stock price volatility, the expected pre-vesting forfeiture rate and the expected option term (the amount of time from the grant date until the options are exercised or expire).
| 23 |
All issuances of stock options or other equity instruments to non-employees as consideration for goods or services received by the Company are accounted for based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued. Non-employee equity based payments that do not vest immediately upon grant are recorded as an expense over the vesting period.
Revenue Recognition
In accordance with FASB ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies performance obligations, by transferring promised goods or services to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for fulfilling those performance obligations.
