NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization and Business

WaveDancer, Inc. (“WaveDancer”), formerly known as Information Analysis Incorporated (“IAI”), is engaged in providing professional services to U.S. government agencies to modernize information technology services, in selling and supporting third-party software, primarily Adobe products, to U.S. government agencies, and, with our December, 2021 acquisition of Gray Matters, Inc. (“GMI” or “Gray Matters”), in providing a blockchain enabled supply chain management software solution. With the acquisition of GMI, we began implementing a strategy that will expand our offerings well beyond systems modernization services and sales of third-party software. We manage our business as a single operating unit and in one reportable segment.

Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (“financial statements”) have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of management, the financial statements include all adjustments necessary (which are of a normal and recurring nature) for the fair and not misleading presentation of the results of the interim periods presented. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021 included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by the Company with the SEC on April 12, 2022 (the “Annual Report”), as amended. The accompanying December 31, 2021, balance sheet was derived from the audited financial statements included in the Annual Report. The results of operations for any interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for any other interim period or for a full fiscal year.

The condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2022 and for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022 include the accounts of WaveDancer and its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”, “we” or “our”). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

There have been no changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies as of March 31, 2022, as compared to the significant accounting policies disclosed in Note 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in the Company's Annual Report.

Use of Estimates

Preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates due to uncertainties, including the effects of COVID-19. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to the allowance for credit losses; fair values of financial instruments, intangible assets, and goodwill; useful lives of intangible assets and property and equipment; the valuation of stock-based compensation, the valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities; and contingent liabilities, among others. We base our estimates on assumptions, both historical and forward looking, that are believed to be reasonable, and the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities.

Reclassification

Beginning with the three months ended March 31, 2022, our condensed consolidated statement of cash flows presents separately the amortization of the right-of-use operating lease asset as a non-cash adjustment from net income and the change in the operating lease liability due to cash payments as a change in operating assets and liabilities. Previously, the net of these amounts was reported as a change in operating assets and liabilities. Amounts on the statement of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2021 have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based on the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities and are measured by applying enacted tax rates and laws for the taxable years in which those differences are expected to reverse. In addition, a valuation allowance is required to be recognized if it is believed more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will not be fully realized. Authoritative guidance prescribes a recognition threshold of more likely than not, and a measurement attribute for all tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return, in order for those positions to be recognized in the financial statements. The Company has analyzed its income tax positions using the criteria required by GAAP and concluded that as of March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, it has no material uncertain tax positions and no interest or penalties have been accrued.

Concentration of Credit Risk

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company’s prime contracts with U.S. government agencies represented 34.3% of revenue, subcontracts under federal procurements represented 65.1% of revenue, and 0.6% of revenue came from commercial and local government contracts. The terms of these contracts and subcontracts vary from single transactions to five years. One prime contract represented 27.9% of revenue, and three subcontracts under federal procurements represented 26.9%, 16.0%, and 11.0% of revenue, respectively. Revenue from one prime contractor under which the Company has multiple subcontracts represented 37.9% of the Company’s revenue in aggregate.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company’s prime contracts with U.S. government agencies represented 41.1% of revenue, subcontracts under federal procurements represented 57.6% of revenue, and 1.3% of revenue came from commercial contracts. The terms of these contracts and subcontracts vary from single transactions to five years. Within this group of prime contracts with U.S. government agencies, one software sales contract generated 23.6% of our revenue and one professional fee contract generated 10.6% of our revenue. One subcontract under a federal procurement generated 39.8% of our revenue, and all subcontracts under that prime contractor collectively generated 49.4% of our revenue.

The Company sold third-party software and maintenance contracts under agreements with one major supplier, accounting for 30.5% and 27.4% of total revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company’s accounts receivable included receivables from three subcontracts under federal procurements that represented 48.2%, 19.7%, and 10.3% of the Company’s outstanding accounts receivable, respectively. Receivables from one prime contractor under which the Company has multiple subcontracts represented 67.9% of the Company’s outstanding accounts receivable in aggregate.

As of March 31, 2021, accounts receivable balances related to two professional services subcontracts under one prime contractor for projects at one federal agency collectively represented 91.7% of our outstanding accounts receivable, and which individually represented 72.4% and 19.3%, respectively.

COVID-19 Update

While we have not experienced a significant adverse impact on our business from the pandemic as of March 31, 2022, the extent to which it will impact our business and operations will depend on future developments that are uncertain. We continue to monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our customers, partners, employees and service providers.

Note 2. Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Revenue is recognized when all of the following steps have been taken and criteria met for each contract:

•

Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer - A contract with a customer exists when (i) the Company enters into an enforceable contract with a customer that defines each party’s rights regarding the goods or services to be transferred and identifies the payment terms related to these goods or services, (ii) the contract has commercial substance and the parties are committed to perform and, (iii) it determines that collection of substantially all consideration to which the Company will be entitled in exchange for goods or services that will be transferred is probable based on the customer’s intent and ability to pay the promised consideration.

•

Identification of the performance obligations in the contract - Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the goods or services that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct, whereby the customer can benefit from the goods or service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available from third parties or from the Company, and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the goods or services is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. To the extent a contract includes multiple promised goods or services, the Company applies judgment to determine whether promised goods or services are capable of being distinct in the context of the contract. If these criteria are not met, the promised goods or services are accounted for as a combined performance obligation.

•

Determination of the transaction price - The transaction price is determined based on the consideration to which the Company will be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to the customer adjusted for estimated variable consideration, if any. The Company typically estimates the transaction price impact of discounts offered to the customers for early payments on receivables or rebates based on sales target achievements. Constraints are applied when estimating variable considerations based on historical experience where applicable.

•

Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract - If the contract contains a single performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. Contracts that contain multiple performance obligations require an allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation based on a relative standalone selling price basis. The Company determines standalone selling price by taking into account available information such as historical selling prices of the performance obligation, geographic location, overall strategic pricing objective, market conditions and internally approved pricing guidelines related to the performance obligations.

•

Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies performance obligations - The Company satisfies performance obligations either over time or at a point in time as discussed in further detail below. Revenue is recognized at or over the time the related performance obligation is satisfied by transferring a promised good or service to a customer.

Nature of Products and Services

We generate revenue from the sales of information technology professional services, sales of third-party software licenses and implementation and training services, sales of third-party support and maintenance contracts based on those software products, and incentive payments received from third-party software suppliers for facilitating sales directly between that supplier and a customer introduced by the Company. In addition, with the GMI acquisition, we expanded our offerings to include licensing and implementation services for proprietary blockchain based SCM software. We sell through our direct relationships with end customers and under subcontractor arrangements.

Professional services are offered through several arrangements – through time and materials arrangements, fixed-price-per-unit arrangements, fixed-price arrangements, or combinations of these arrangements within individual contracts. Revenue under time and materials arrangements is recognized over time in the period the hours are worked or the expenses are incurred, as control of the benefits of the work is deemed to have passed to the customer as the work is performed. Revenue under fixed-price-per-unit arrangements is recognized at a point in time when delivery of units has occurred and units are accepted by the customer or are reasonably expected to be accepted. Generally, revenue under fixed-price arrangements and mixed arrangements is recognized either over time or at a point in time based on the allocation of transaction pricing to each identified performance obligation as control of each is transferred to the customer. For fixed-price arrangements under which documentary evidence of acceptance or receipt of deliverables is not present or withheld by the customer, the Company recognizes revenue when it has the right to invoice the customer. For fixed-price arrangements for which the Company is paid a fixed fee to make itself available to support a customer, with no predetermined deliverables to which transaction prices can be estimated or allocated, revenue is recognized ratably over time.

Third-party software licenses are classified as enterprise server-based software licenses or desktop software licenses, and desktop licenses are further classified by the type of customer and whether the licenses are bulk licenses or individual licenses. The Company’s obligations as the seller for each class differ based on its reseller agreements and whether its customers are government or non-government customers. Revenue from enterprise server-based sales to either government or non-government customers is usually recognized in full at a point in time based on when the customer gains use of the full benefit of the licenses, after the licenses are implemented. If the transaction prices of the performance obligations related to implementation and customer support for the individual contract is material, these obligations are recognized separately over time, as performed. Revenue for desktop software licenses for government customers is usually recognized on a gross basis at a point in time, based on when the customer’s administrative contact gains training in and beneficial use of the administrative portal. Revenue for bulk desktop software licenses for non-government customers is usually recognized on a gross basis at a point in time, based on when the customer’s administrative contact gains training in and beneficial use of the administrative portal. For desktop software licenses sold on an individual license basis to non-government customers, where the Company has no obligation to the customer after the third-party makes delivery of the licenses, the Company has determined it is acting as an agent, and the Company recognizes revenue upon delivery of the licenses only for the net of the selling price and its contract costs.

Third-party support and maintenance contracts for enterprise server-based software include a performance obligation under the Company’s reseller agreements for it to be the first line of support (direct support) and second line of support (intermediary between customer and manufacturer) to the customer. Because of the support performance obligations, and because the amount of support is not estimable, the Company recognizes revenue ratably over time as it makes itself available to provide the support.

Incentive payments are received under reseller agreements with software manufacturers and suppliers where the Company introduces and courts a customer, but the sale occurs directly between the customer and the supplier or between the customer and the manufacturer. Since the transfer of control of the licenses cannot be measured from outside of these transactions, revenue is recognized when payment from the manufacturer or supplier is received.

Contract Balances

Accounts Receivable

Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the billable amount where the Company has the unconditional right to bill, net of allowances for doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on the Company’s assessment of the collectability of accounts. Management regularly reviews the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts by considering the age of each outstanding invoice, each customer's expected ability to pay and collection history, when applicable, to determine whether a specific allowance is appropriate. Accounts receivable deemed uncollectible are charged against the allowance for doubtful accounts when identified. There were no such allowances recognized as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Accounts receivable as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, consist of the following:

	March 31, 2022		December 31, 2021
Billed federal government	$	1,625,138	$	1,594,473
Unbilled receivables		46,934		70,389
Accounts receivable	$	1,672,072	$	1,664,862

Billed receivables from the federal government include amounts due from both prime contracts and subcontracts where the federal government is the end customer.

Contract Assets

Contract assets consist of assets resulting when revenue recognized exceeds the amount billed or billable to the customer due to allocation of transaction price, and of amounts withheld from payment of invoices as a financing component of a contract. There were no amounts recorded to contract assets as of March 31, 2022 or December 31, 2021. Changes in contract assets balances in the three months ended March 31, 2021, were as follows:

Balance as of December 31, 2020	$	210,688
Contract assets added		131,943
Balance as of March 31, 2021	$	342,631

Contract Liabilities

Contract liabilities consist of amounts that have been invoiced and for which the Company has the right to bill, but that have not been recognized as revenue because the related goods or services have not been transferred. Changes in contracts liabilities balances in the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, are as follows:

Balance as of December 31, 2021	$	186,835
Contract liabilities added		19,280
Revenue recognized		(56,423	)
Balance as of March 31, 2022	$	149,692

Balance as of December 31, 2020	$	946,884
Contract liabilities added		93,934
Revenue recognized		(585,322	)
Balance as of March 31, 2021	$	455,496

Revenues recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, from the balances as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, were $56,423 and $492,494, respectively.

Costs to Obtain or Fulfill a Contract

When applicable, the Company recognizes an asset related to the costs incurred to obtain a contract only if it expects to recover those costs and it would not have incurred those costs if the contract had not been obtained. The Company recognizes an asset from the costs incurred to fulfill a contract if the costs (i) are specifically identifiable to a contract, (ii) enhance resources that will be used in satisfying performance obligations in future and (iii) are expected to be recovered. There were no such assets as of March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021. When incurred, these costs are amortized ratably over the periods of the contracts to which those costs apply.

Deferred Costs of Revenue

Deferred costs of revenue consist of the costs of third-party support and maintenance contracts for enterprise server-based software. These costs are reported under the prepaid expenses and other current assets caption on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company recognizes these direct costs ratably over time as it makes itself available to provide its performance obligation for software support, commensurate with its recognition of revenue. Changes in deferred costs of revenue balances in the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, are as follows:

Balance as of December 31, 2021	$	154,218
Deferred costs added		2,800
Deferred costs expensed		(55,362	)
Balance as of March 31, 2022	$	101,656

Balance as of December 31, 2020	$	89,068
Deferred costs added		17,406
Deferred costs expensed		(75,223	)
Balance as of March 31, 2021	$	31,251

Note 3. Leases

The Company has two significant operating leases, one for its headquarters offices in Fairfax, Virginia and one for additional office space in Annapolis, Maryland. The leases both commenced in 2021 and have original lease terms ranging from 37 to 67 months and rental rates escalate by approximately 2.5% annually under both leases. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in right-of-use operating lease assets and operating lease liabilities in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

As of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company does not have any sales-type or direct financing leases.

The Company’s operating lease asset represents its right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent its obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Since the lease does not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The operating lease asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company’s lease agreement includes rental payments escalating annually for inflation at a fixed rate. These payments are included in the initial measurement of the operating lease liability and operating lease asset. The Company does not have any rental payments which are based on a change in an index or a rate that can be considered variable lease payments, which would be expensed as incurred.

The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictions or covenants.

The Company does not sublease any real estate to third parties.

As of March 31, 2022, our two operating leases had a weighted average remaining lease term of 42 months and a weighted average discount rate of 4.5%. Future lease payments under operating leases as of March 31, 2022 were as follows:

Remainder of 2022	$	168,042
2023		228,862
2024		174,721
2025		74,804
2026		70,220
Total lease payments		716,649
Less: discount		(64,016	)
Present value of lease liabilities	$	652,633

The total expense incurred related to its operating leases was $56,414 and $26,122 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and is included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Note 4. Fair Value Measurements

The Company defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to 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. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The standard describes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value which are the following:

•

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

	•		Level 2—Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices 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 assets or liabilities; and
	•		Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The following table represents the fair value hierarchy for the Company’s financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021:

	March 31, 2022
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Cash equivalents:
Money market funds	$	151,231	$	-	$	-	$	151,231
Other liabilities:
Fair value of contingent consideration	$	-	$	-	$	942,609	$	942,609

	December 31, 2021
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Cash equivalents:
Money market funds	$	1,600,663	$	-	$	-	$	1,660,663
Other liabilities:
Fair value of contingent consideration	$	-	$	-	$	930,000	$	930,000

The following table is a rollforward of the Level 3 fair value measurements.

Fair value of contingent consideration:
December 31, 2021	$	930,000
Change in fair value		12,609
March 31, 2022	$	942,609

The change in fair value of contingent consideration is included in other income (expense) on the condensed consolidated statement of operations. There were no unrealized gains or losses included in income for the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Note 5. Acquisitions

Tellenger, Inc.

On April 7, 2021, the Company purchased all of the issued and outstanding shares of stock of Tellenger, Inc. (“Tellenger”). Tellenger is primarily engaged in providing professional services related to cybersecurity, cloud computing, and data analytics. Tellenger’s customers include U.S. government agencies, either as a prime contractor or sub-contractor, as well as several national not-for-profit organizations. The purchase price of $2,515,357 was paid with $2,315,357 of cash and 68,264 shares of Company common shares valued at $200,000 as of the transaction closing date. The value of the shares was determined by the closing price as of the transaction date. Goodwill is attributable to human capital related intangible assets like the value of the acquired assembled workforce and strategic and enterprise related intangible assets including growth opportunities that are not reportable separately from goodwill. Goodwill also arises from recognizing deferred tax liabilities from intangible assets that are amortizable for financial reporting but not for income tax purposes. The transaction did not result in a step-up in tax basis and neither the intangible assets nor goodwill recorded for financial reporting purposes results in deductible amortization for tax purposes. The purchase price for Tellenger has been allocated as follows:

	Useful Lives (years)		Amounts			Valuation Methodology
Cash			$	81,473
Accounts receivable				611,471
Other current assets				6,338
Intangible assets with estimated useful lives:
Customer relationships		8		1,090,000		Replacement cost and relief from royalty
Non-compete agreements		3		120,000		Multi-period excess earnings
Intangible assets with indefinite lives:
Trade names				280,000
Goodwill				785,000
Total assets acquired				2,974,282
Current liabilities				(458,925	)
Net assets acquired			$	2,515,357

Gray Matters, Inc.

On December 10, 2021, the Company purchased all the issued and outstanding shares of Gray Matters, Inc. (“GMI” or “Gray Matters”). GMI provides supply chain management software designed to aggregate customer data into a single, interconnected, blockchain secured framework. The purchase price of $11,005,100 comprises the following:

Net cash consideration	$	7,240,100
Buyer common stock		1,500,000
Fair value of deferred consideration		1,335,000
Fair value of contingent consideration		930,000
Total	$	11,005,100

Common stock consideration consisted of 436,481 shares of WaveDancer common stock valued at $1,500,000 as of the transaction closing date. The deferred consideration of $1,335,000 is the estimated present value as of the closing date of the $1,500,000 cash payment due to the selling shareholder of GMI (the “Seller”) on the second anniversary of the acquisition. We applied a discount rate of 6% reflecting our recent secured borrowing rate adjusted to include a premium for the unsecured status of the deferred consideration liability. Accretion of the liability will be recorded as interest expense. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we recorded $19,319 of interest expense. Contingent consideration has been estimated using a probability weighted average of possible outcomes, discounted to its net present value as of the acquisition date. We identified the set of possible outcomes and assigned probabilities to each by applying management judgment to the assumptions underlying the projections of 2022 revenue and gross profit. Under the terms of the purchase agreement, the Seller is eligible to receive from zero up to $4,000,000 of additional consideration, payable in cash, based on the amounts of revenue and gross profit achieved by GMI during the period from the acquisition date through December 31, 2022. We estimated that the outcomes to apply a probability weighting to range from $500,000 to $1,500,000, with an outcome of $1,000,000 given the highest probability weighting. The undiscounted probability weighted outcome was determined to be $1,000,000 and was discounted back to its present value of $930,000 as of December 31, 2021. We applied a discount rate of 6% reflecting our recent secured borrowing rate adjusted to include a premium for the unsecured status of the contingent consideration liability. The contingent consideration liability will be remeasured at fair value at the end of each reporting period and reported in the consolidated statements of operations until the liability is settled. We remeasured the contingent consideration liability as of March 31, 2022 and determined the undiscounted probability weighted outcome remains $1,000,000. We have calculated a final adjustment to net working capital due from the Seller, who is now an executive of WaveDancer, in the amount of $58,681 and have reflected that amount in other assets on the consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

On May 12, 2022, the Company and Seller agreed to extend the settlement dates for the contingent consideration liability and the final adjustment to net working capital to December 10, 2023, which coincides with the due date of the deferred consideration. The deferred consideration and contingent consideration liabilities are classified as other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and total $2,296,928 and $2,265,000 as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Goodwill is attributable to human capital related intangible assets like the value of the acquired assembled workforce and strategic and enterprise related intangible assets including growth opportunities that are not reportable separately from goodwill. Goodwill also arises from recognizing deferred tax liabilities from recording in the purchase accounting intangible assets that are amortizable for financial reporting but not for income tax purposes. The transaction did not result in a step-up in tax basis and the Company will carry over the legacy tax basis of $0 for all intangibles. Neither the intangible assets nor goodwill recorded for financial reporting purposes will generate deductible amortization for tax purposes.

The purchase price for GMI has been allocated as follows:

	Useful Lives (years)		Amounts			Valuation Methodology
Cash			$	20,235
Fixed assets				8,902
Intangible assets with estimated useful lives:
Technology		5		2,900,000		Replacement cost and relief from royalty
Customer relationships		6		3,860,000		Multi-period excess earnings
Goodwill				4,560,099
Total assets acquired				11,349,236
Current liabilities				(344,136	)
Net assets acquired			$	11,005,100

Supplemental Combined Pro Forma Information

The following unaudited pro forma financial information presents combined results of operations for the periods presented as if the acquisitions of both Tellenger and Gray Matters had been completed on January 1, 2020.

Goodwill	Indefinite		$	7,585,269		$	-		$	7,585,269

There was no impairment charge to intangible assets or goodwill for the three months ended March 31, 2022. There were no intangible assets or goodwill recorded as of December 31, 2020 or March 31, 2021.

As of March 31, 2022, expected amortization expense relating to purchased intangible assets for each of the next five years and thereafter is as follows:

Remainder of 2022	$	1,049,679
2023		1,399,572
2024		1,369,635
2025		1,359,576
2026		1,326,854
Thereafter		913,759
Total	$	7,419,075

Note 7. Stock-Based Compensation

We have three stock-based compensation plans. The 2006 Stock Incentive Plan was adopted in 2006 (“2006 Plan”) and had options granted under it through April 12, 2016. The 2016 Stock Incentive Plan was adopted in 2016 (“2016 Plan”) and had options granted under it through November 15, 2021. On October 11, 2021, the Board of Directors approved the 2021 Stock Incentive Plan (“2021 Plan”) and on December 2, 2021, our shareholders approved the plan.

The Company recognizes compensation costs only for those shares expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards. Fair values of option awards granted in the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, were estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model under the following assumptions:

	Three months ended March 31,
	2022			2021
Risk-free interest rate	1.91%	-	2.41%	0.46%	-	0.92%
Dividend yield		0%			0%
Expected term (years)	5.75	-	6.00		5.00
Expected volatility	45.8%	-	46.1%	92.6%	-	93.8%

Determining the assumptions for the expected term and volatility requires management to exercise significant judgement. The expected term represents the weighted-average period that options granted are expected to be outstanding giving consideration to vesting schedules. Since the Company does not have an extended history of actual exercises, the Company has estimated the expected term using a simplified method which calculates the expected term as the average of the time-to-vesting and the contractual life of the awards. Given the limited public market for the Company’s stock, the Company has elected to estimate its expected volatility by benchmarking its volatility to that of several public company issuers that operate within its market segment. The guideline companies’ volatility was increased by a size adjustment premium to compensate for the difference in size between the guideline companies and the Company in its calculation. The first issuance for which this benchmarking was applied was effective with options granted on March 31, 2021.

There were 912,000 options with grant date fair values totaling $2,074,670 and 145,000 options with grant date fair values totaling $176,900 granted during the three months ended March 31, 2022, and 2021, respectively. There were 105,000 options and no options exercised during the three months ended March 31, 2022, and 2021, respectively. As of March 31, 2022, there was $2,966,854 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the stock incentive plans; that cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 11 months.

Total compensation expense related to these plans was $312,176 and $27,711 for the three months ended March 31, 2022, and 2021, respectively and is included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Note 8. Revolving Line of Credit and Notes Payable

On April 16, 2021, the Company entered into a revolving line of credit with Summit Community Bank (“Summit”) that provides for on-demand or short-term borrowings of up to $1,000,000 at a variable interest rate equal to the greater of 3.25% or the prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal, and subject to a borrowing base calculated using outstanding accounts receivable. Borrowings under the line of credit are secured by the assets of the Company. The line expired on April 16, 2022. As of March 31, 2022 and December 31 2021, there was no outstanding balance under this line of credit and there were no borrowings or repayments during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

The Company previously had a revolving line of credit with another bank (“prior LOC”) providing for demand or short-term borrowings of up to $1,000,000 at an interest rate of the greater of 4.0% or LIBOR +3.5%. The prior LOC originally was due to expire on July 31, 2021 and was secured by the assets of the Company. The Summit line of credit was used to pay off the prior LOC and it was closed on May 3, 2021.

On April 16, 2021, we entered into a $1 million term loan agreement with Summit Community Bank. The term of the loan was two years with monthly installments comprising a fixed principal amount plus interest accruing at a fixed rate of 4.89%. The loan was collateralized by a security interest in substantially all the assets of the Company. On December 30, 2021, we fully repaid the outstanding balance of the loan.

To provide additional net working capital support, the Company borrowed $150,000 from the sellers of Tellenger for a period of 90 days from the closing date of April 7, 2021, without interest accumulation. The sellers were repaid in July 2021.

Note 9. Private Offerings of Common Stock

In March 2021, the Company sold 330,666 unregistered shares of its common stock in a private offering at a price of $1.50 per share from which it raised aggregate gross proceeds of $495,999.

On August 26, 2021, the Company sold 1,400,000 units at a price of $2.00 per unit, each unit consisting of one unregistered share of common stock and one warrant exercisable at $3.00 for one share of common stock, in a private offering from which it raised aggregate gross proceeds of $2,800,000. The warrants expire on August 31, 2026. 1,400,000 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of warrants in connection with the offering have been reserved for issuance. The warrants are classified as equity.

On December 10, 2021, the Company sold 3,289,526 units at a price of $3.04 in a private offering from which it raised $10,000,000 resulting in the issuance of a like number of shares of common stock and Series A warrants exercisable for 657,933 shares of common stock. The warrants are exercisable at a price of $4.50 per share, with the warrants exercisable from January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2026. If the shares underlying the warrants are not registered when the warrants become exercisable, the warrants can be exercised on a cashless basis. The warrants are subject to mandatory exercise if, commencing January 1, 2024, the volume weighted average price per share for 10 consecutive trading days equals or exceeds $12.50. The warrants are classified as equity.

The total offering costs associated with the sales of unregistered shares of common stock in 2021 were not material.

Note 10. Income Taxes

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2022, the Company’s effective tax rate was 25.89%. The Company records income taxes using an estimated annual effective tax rate for interim reporting. The primary factors contributing to the difference between the federal statutory rate and the Company’s effective tax rate for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022 were state taxes and permanent items. During the three-month period ended March 31, 2021, the Company’s effective tax rate was 0%. The primary factors contributing to the difference between the statutory tax rate and the effective tax rate for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, is primarily driven by the presence of a full valuation allowance in all jurisdictions.

Note 11. (Loss) Income Per Share

Basic loss per share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing loss available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock, except for periods when the Company reports a net loss because the inclusion of such items would be antidilutive. The antidilutive effect of 778,196 shares from stock options and 530,435 shares from warrants were excluded from diluted shares for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The dilutive effect of outstanding options and warrants is reflected in earnings per share by use of the treasury stock method. No shares were excluded from diluted shares for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

The following is a reconciliation of the amounts used in calculating basic and diluted net (loss) income per common share:

	2022			2021
Net (loss) income	$	(2,078,307	)	$	270,815
Basic weighted average shares outstanding		17,294,808			11,282,671
Dilutive effect of warrants and/or options		-			1,003,545
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding		17,294,808			12,286,216
Basic (loss)/earnings per share	$	(0.12	)	$	0.02
Diluted (loss)/earnings per share	$	(0.12	)	$	0.02

Our Business

Founded in 1979 as Information Analysis Incorporated, the Company changed its name to WaveDancer, Inc. and converted from a Virginia corporation to a Delaware corporation in December 2021. The Company is in the business of developing and maintaining information technology (“IT”) systems, modernizing client information systems, and performing other IT-related professional services to government and commercial organizations.

The Company is an IT provider primarily for the benefit of federal government agencies. At present, we primarily apply our technology, services and experience to legacy software migration and modernization, developing web-based and mobile device solutions, including dynamic electronic forms development and conversion, data analytics, and we are in the process of acquiring talent and expertise in developing cybersecurity and cloud services practices. Our focus is on enterprise IT solutions primarily relating to system modernization, cloud-based solutions and cybersecurity protection.

Since the Company’s inception, we have performed software development and conversion projects for over 100 commercial and government customers including, but not limited to, the Department of Agriculture, Department of Defense, Department of Education, Department of Homeland Security, Department of the Treasury, U.S. Small Business Administration, U.S. Army, U.S. Air Force, Department of Veterans Affairs, and General Dynamics Information Technology (formerly Computer Sciences Corporation, CSRA).

Modernization has been a core competency of the Company for over 20 years. We have modernized over 100 million lines of COBOL code for over 35 governmental and commercial customers. We maintain a pool of skilled COBOL programmers. This provides us with competitive advantage as the labor pool of such programmers is shrinking as aging software professionals retire. Our business has also historically relied upon the reselling of applications, primarily for forms development.

Through our acquisition in April 2021 of Tellenger, Inc. (“Tellenger”), which is now a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, we acquired competencies in web-based solutions and cybersecurity. Tellenger is a boutique IT consulting and software development firm specializing in modernization, software development, cybersecurity, cloud solutions, and data analytics. We believe combining web-based solutions with system modernization will provide us with the skill sets that are needed to migrate legacy systems to the cloud. We foresee this as a key component of our modernization growth since there are billions of lines of code, in both the governmental and commercial sectors, that eventually must be modernized. It is also our intention to better leverage our resources, largely gained through the acquisition of Tellenger, to take advantage of the growth in the cybersecurity market.

In December 2021, we announced the reorganization of our entire professional services practice into Tellenger, and as a result, our professional services are contained in a single entity. Through Tellenger, we perform services such as business process re-engineering, cloud migrations, and Software-as-a-Service (“SaaS”) implementations on behalf of clients in the private and public sector with an aim to increase productivity, gain efficiencies, and achieve key performance indicators. Tellenger is appraised at Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) Level 3.

Through our acquisition of Gray Matters, Inc. and in connection with our business transformation strategy which we discuss below, in December 2021 we gained access to blockchain and encryption algorithm technology. Gray Matters specializes in the supply chain management (“SCM”) industry and in United States intelligence, national security and diplomatic organizations. Gray Matters uses a “Zero Trust” product and is designed to secure and monitor the lifecycle of manufacturing through destruction and recycling.

We refer to the products and services offered by Tellenger and WaveDancer prior to the acquisition of GMI as “Legacy IAI”.

Our Strategy

Our strategy is to grow our business organically as well as through acquisitions.

Through the acquisitions of Tellenger and Gray Matters in 2021, we began to reposition our legacy professional services business by allocating resources away from third-party product reselling and toward professional services, which management viewed as higher margin, including within the SCM sector. In assessing the Company’s repositioning, management observed cybersecurity practices as evolving toward a zero-trust approach, the integration of blockchain as enhancing SCM, and the proliferation of Internet of Things (“IoT”) devices that were taking organizational networks to the edge. With respect to its focus on IoT, on March 18, 2022 the Company agreed to acquire Knowmadics, Inc. (“Knowmadics”). The acquisition remains subject to stockholder approval of share issuances contemplated under the definitive purchase agreement and our obtaining financing to fund the purchase price under the agreement. Additionally, we have been seeking to purchase other technology companies whose businesses complement the Company’s existing business and whose personnel would better enable us to compete for engagements in our focus areas.

To grow organically, we have hired and plan to continue to hire, business development personnel and intend to become more proactive in bidding as a prime contractor on government proposals and in expanding our outreach to larger prime contractors for subcontract and teaming opportunities.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 versus Three Months Ended March 31, 2021

Revenue

Total revenue was $2,995,512 for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared with $3,419,580 in the prior year quarter, a decrease of $424,068, or 12.4%. The decrease consists of: 1) professional services decrease of $372,569 including a decrease of $1,058,515 from Legacy IAI before the Tellenger acquisition, partially offset by $685,949 of revenue generated by the contracts from the Tellenger acquisition; and 2) third-party software sales decrease of $51,499. The decline in revenue for Legacy IAI before the Tellenger acquisition has three main drivers: 1) one contract for which the 2021 first quarter included significant levels of overtime in connection with meeting an accelerated milestone, while in the 2022 quarter we did not devote overtime resources to the project ($556 thousand); 2) one contract that has transitioned to a maintenance phase where in 2021 we had revenues associated with systems conversion ($329 thousand); and 3) one contract that ended in 2021 ($227 thousand).

Gross Profit

Gross profit decreased by $643,585 or 63.1%, to $376,065, in the first quarter of 2022 as compared to the first quarter of 2021. This year over year gross profit decrease comprises the following elements: 1) core professional services business of $269,132; 2) third-party software sales of approximately $26,700; and 3) approximately $347,753 of costs for a contract for which we were unable to recognize revenue during the quarter. The decrease related to our core professional services business was driven primarily by the comparable 2021 period including significant levels of overtime in connection with meeting an accelerated milestone while in the 2022 quarter we did not devote overtime resources to the project. The reduction of gross profit from expiring or reduced contracts in Legacy IAI before the Tellenger acquisition were mostly offset by the addition of gross profits generated by the contracts from the Tellenger acquisition. For the contract for which we did not recognize revenue in the quarter, we anticipate that we will recognize revenue in both the second and third quarters of 2022 that will be directly related to the costs incurred in the first quarter this year.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

SG&A expenses have increased significantly since the second half of 2021 when we began to implement the transformative strategy described in the Our Strategy section above and in the Annual Report. The following table shows the major elements of SG&A expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 and the increases between quarters:

	2022		2021		Increase
Legal and professional fees	$	624,763	$	78,981	$	545,782
Personnel costs		969,388		460,851		508,537
Intangibles amortization		349,893		-		349,893
Stock-based compensation		312,176		27,711		284,465
Governance and investor relations		161,687		33,932		127,755
IT and office expenses		143,019		48,305		94,714
Marketing expenses		49,041		5,155		43,886
All other		104,375		25,315		79,060
	$	2,714,342	$	680,250	$	2,034,092

Acquisition Costs

We incurred expenses totaling $434,702 in the first quarter of 2022 primarily related to the pending acquisition of Knowmadics. These expenses include legal and other fees to conduct due diligence and to negotiate and draft legal documents.

Income (Loss) from Operations

Loss from operations was $2,772,979 in the first quarter of 2022 compared to income from operations of $268,870 in 2021, a difference of $3,041,849. The decrease in income from operations is the result of the decrease in gross profit of $643,585 and the increase in SG&A expenses and acquisition costs totaling $2,398,264, as discussed above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2022, we had $3.0 million of cash on hand consisting of bank deposits and money market funds. Our business is not fixed asset intensive, and we have no commitments for capital expenditures. We have two office leases with lease commitments totaling $0.2 million for the next twelve months and $0.5 million during the remainder of their terms which end in 2024 and 2026. In connection with the acquisition, we are required to pay the seller of Gray Matters (the “Seller”) $1.5 million in December 2023. Also, the Seller is entitled to additional consideration of up to $4 million contingent on the performance of Gray Matters for the year ending December 31, 2022. Our balance sheet as of March 31, 2022 reflects an estimated $1 million for that contingent liability. The settlement of that contingent liability which was originally due by approximately April 30, 2023 has been adjusted, by agreement between the Company and Seller, to December 2023, to coincide with the payment date of the deferred consideration due to the Seller.

To meet our liquidity commitments and continue to execute our strategy for the next twelve months and beyond, assuming we consummate the acquisition of Knowmadics, we intend to use a combination of cash on hand, the ability of Legacy IAI, Gray Matters and Knowmadics to generate cash from operations, and approximately $7.0 million from the approximately $66.5 million we intend to raise in connection with the pending Knowmadics acquisition, of which no assurance can be provided. See “—Impact of Acquisitions and Transformation of Our Business” in our Annual Report for more information on the pending Knowmadics acquisition and the funds we intend to raise in connection therewith.

To meet our liquidity commitments and continue to execute our strategy through the end of 2022 and beyond, if we do not consummate the acquisition of Knowmadics, we intend to use a combination of cash on hand, cash generated from the operations of Legacy IAI and Gray Matters, and we will reduce our operating expense cost structure to align with this scenario which will provide additional operating cash flow.

Based on our current cash position and operating plan, we anticipate that we will be able to meet our cash requirements for at least one year from the filing date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

We have no off-balance-sheet arrangements that have or are likely to have a material current or future effect on our financial condition, or changes in financial condition, liquidity or capital resources or expenditures.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, and people performing similar functions, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of March 31, 2022 (the “Evaluation Date”). Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2022, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no control system can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of a person, by collusion of two or more people or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls 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. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and may not be detected. Notwithstanding these limitations, we believe that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives.
