Explanatory Note

PART I

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management, under the supervision and with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have conducted an evaluation of 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). Disclosure controls and procedures are 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 recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s 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 our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of June 30, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below. We have in place and are executing a remediation plan to address the material weaknesses described below.

As discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A, we identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as we have determined that our control was not operating effectively to assess the proper presentation of cash and cash equivalents for our Canada customer funds for financial reporting purposes, including the corresponding customer funds and customer funds obligations and related statements of cash flows presentation as of December 31, 2022, which continues to exist as of June 30, 2023. This material weakness was the result of the control operator not appropriately detecting and correcting the error, as a result of insufficient training.

Further, while reassessing the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, management identified, in the aggregate, a material weakness related to controls over certain Professional Services and Powerpay revenue accounts as of December 31, 2022, which continues to exist as of June 30, 2023, resulting from an ineffective risk assessment process to properly design and implement controls over (1) certain process level activities related to Powerpay revenue, and (2) information technology access pertaining to a system implemented in September 2022 that adversely impacted the accuracy and completeness of information that is used to measure a component of its Professional Services revenue.

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

In light of the material weaknesses, management performed additional analyses and other procedures to ensure that our consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("U.S. GAAP"). Accordingly, management believes that the condensed consolidated financial statements included in the Original Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows as of and for the periods presented, in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Management’s Plan to Remediate the Identified Material Weaknesses

With regard to the Canada Trust Material Weakness, the Company has implemented an additional control and training to ensure proper classification and presentation of cash and cash equivalents for its Canada customer funds.

In addition, we have enhanced our revenue risk assessment process and information technology general controls to prevent misstatements in Professional Services revenue accounts. We will also implement additional controls to prevent misstatements in Powerpay revenue accounts. We anticipate that the two material weaknesses will be fully remediated before December 31, 2023, but the material weaknesses cannot be considered fully remediated until the improved controls have been in place and operate for a sufficient period of time to enable management to test and to conclude on the operating effectiveness of the controls.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

With the exception of the controls implemented in response to the material weaknesses identified above, there were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended June 30, 2023 that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
