EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

IronNet, Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q (this “Amendment No. 1”) to amend its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended October 31, 2021, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 15, 2021 (the “Original Form 10-Q”). The purpose of this Amendment No. 1 is to restate the previously issued unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures as of October 31, 2021 and for the three and nine months then ended contained in the Original Form 10-Q (the “Restatement”). See Note 2, “Restatement of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements” of Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-Q/A for additional information. On April 25, 2022, the Company filed a Current Report on Form 8-K disclosing that the financial statements included in the Original Form 10-Q should not be relied upon.



Restatement Background



On April 22, 2022, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”) of the Company determined, based on the analysis and recommendation of management, that the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements and related disclosures included in the Form 10-Q should no longer be relied upon due to an error. The error was the result of the Company not appropriately applying modification accounting to stock-based compensation awards that were issued and outstanding as of August 26, 2021, the closing date of the merger between the Company and IronNet Cybersecurity, Inc. (“Legacy IronNet”). This overstatement relates to stock-based compensation expense for certain of the Company’s outstanding restricted stock units (“RSUs”) granted pursuant to Legacy IronNet’s 2014 Stock Incentive Plan.



When calculating the additional stock-based compensation cost to recognize for modified unvested awards for the three months ended October 31, 2021, the Company considered requisite service rendered by the employee to start from the original vesting commencement date of the award. Upon further evaluation, the Company determined that the correct expense recognition applicable under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718, Stock Compensation for a Type III (improbable-to-probable) modification requires the use of a method that utilizes the date of modification (August 26, 2021) as the beginning of the requisite service period for unvested portions of the awards outstanding, rather than the original vesting commencement date of the award. The impact of correcting the requisite service period start date is to shift the recognition of stock-based compensation expense to later periods.



In connection with the restatement, the Company has also corrected previously identified immaterial errors.

IronNet, Inc.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

($ in thousands, unless stated otherwise)

 

1.
Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

IronNet, Inc. (hereinafter “IronNet”, “we”, “us”, “our”, or “the Company”), through IronNet Cybersecurity, Inc. (“Legacy IronNet”) and its subsidiaries (collectively “Combined Company”), provides a suite of technologies that provide real-time threat assessment and updates, behavioral modeling, big data analytics, and proactive threat detection and response capabilities as well as consulting services and training programs to protect against current and emerging cyber-threats.

 

The Company, whose securities are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), serves as the holding company for the businesses of Legacy IronNet and its subsidiaries. Its headquarters are located in McLean, VA. Legacy IronNet was incorporated in the state of Delaware on April 30, 2019.

 

Merger Agreement

On August 26, 2021, LGL Systems Acquisition Corp. ("Legacy LGL”), through its subsidiary LGL Systems Merger Sub Inc. (“Merger Sub”) and Legacy IronNet, all of them Delaware corporations, consummated the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, dated March 15, 2021 and as amended August 6, 2021, by and among Legacy IronNet, Legacy LGL, and Merger Sub, following their approval at a special meeting of the stockholders of Legacy LGL held on August 26, 2021 (the “Merger”).

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, a merger of Legacy IronNet and Legacy LGL was effected by the merger of Merger Sub with and into Legacy IronNet, with Legacy IronNet surviving the Merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Legacy LGL. Following the consummation of the Merger, Legacy LGL changed its name from LGL Systems Acquisition Corp. to IronNet, Inc. on the closing date.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, (i) each outstanding share of Legacy IronNet common stock and preferred stock (with each share of Legacy IronNet preferred stock being treated as if it were converted into ten (10) shares of Legacy IronNet common stock on the effective date of the Merger) was converted into the right to receive (a) a number of shares of Company common stock equal to the Exchange Ratio (as defined below) and (b) a cash amount payable in respect of fractional shares of Legacy IronNet common stock that would otherwise be issued in connection with the foregoing conversion, if applicable, and (ii) each Legacy IronNet option, restricted stock unit, restricted stock award that was outstanding immediately prior to the closing of the Merger (and by its terms did not terminate upon the closing of the Merger) remains outstanding and (x) in the case of options, represents the right to purchase a number of shares of Company common stock equal to the number of shares of Legacy IronNet common stock subject to such option multiplied by the Exchange Ratio used for Legacy IronNet common stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) at an exercise price per share equal to the current exercise price per share for such option divided by the Exchange Ratio (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) and (y) in the case of restricted stock units and restricted stock awards, represent a number of shares of Company common stock equal to the number of shares of Legacy IronNet common stock subject to such restricted stock unit or restricted stock award multiplied by the Exchange Ratio (rounded down to the nearest whole share). In addition, Legacy IronNet stockholders and eligible holders of options, restricted stock unit awards and restricted stock awards (as applicable, only to the extent time vested as of the closing of the Merger) were also eligible to receive additional merger consideration in the form of a pro rata portion of 1,078 shares of Company common stock if the volume weighted average closing share price for the Company’s common stock equaled or exceeded $13.00 for ten (10) consecutive days during the two-year period following the closing of the Merger. This condition was satisfied and the additional shares of Company common stock were issued in September 2021.

The Exchange Ratio was 0.8141070 of a share of Company common stock per fully-diluted share of Legacy IronNet common stock.

On August 26, 2021, the Company received $13,251 held in Legacy LGL’s trust account net of redemptions. Transaction costs related to the issuance of the trust shares were $9,038.

In connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, a number of purchasers (each, a “Subscriber”) purchased from the Company an aggregate of 12,500,000 shares of Company common stock (the “PIPE Shares”), for a purchase price of $10.00 per share and an aggregate purchase price of $125,000, pursuant to separate subscription agreements entered into effective as of March 15, 2021. Transaction costs related with the issuance were $21,180.

 

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reporting. The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated upon consolidation.

The Merger was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combination.

As a result of Legacy IronNet being the accounting acquirer in the Merger, the financial reports filed with the SEC by the Company subsequent to the Merger are prepared as if Legacy IronNet is the accounting predecessor of the Company. The historical operations of Legacy IronNet are deemed to be those of the Company. Thus, the financial statements included in this Amendment No 1. reflect (i) the historical operating results of Legacy IronNet prior to the Merger; (ii) the consolidated results of the Company, following the Merger on August 26, 2021; (iii) the assets and liabilities of Legacy IronNet at their historical cost; and (iv) the Company’s equity structure for all periods presented. The recapitalization of the number of shares of common stock is reflected retroactively to the earliest period presented and will be utilized for calculating loss per share in all prior periods presented.

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements of Legacy IronNet, Inc. and accompanying notes thereto for the year ended January 31, 2021. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.

The Company’s fiscal year ends on January 31. References to fiscal 2022, for example, refer to the fiscal year ending January 31, 2022.

 

The results of operations for the nine and three months ended October 31, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results that may be expected for the full fiscal year ending January 31, 2022 or any future period.

10


 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, except for the adjustments described as part of the Merger discussed in Note 3, necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of October 31, 2021, its results of operations for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2021 and 2020, and cash flows for the nine months ended October 31, 2021 and 2020.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Such estimates also affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

The Company recognized Public Warrants in equity at fair value as of the effective date of the Merger and recognized $15,740 in additional paid in capital.

Warrants

The Company accounts for the 8,606,473 warrants (comprised of 8,596,273 Public Warrants and 10,200 Private Warrants) in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40-15-7D.

The Private Warrants do not meet the criteria for equity classification and they are recorded as liabilities. Accordingly, the Company classifies the warrant instruments as liabilities at their fair value and adjusts the instrument to fair value at each reporting period. These liabilities are subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the Company’s condensed consolidated statement of operations. The fair value of the Private Warrants has been determined based on a Monte Carlo model.

In connection with the Merger, the Public Warrants were recorded within equity at a fair value of $15,740. The Public Warrants meet the criteria for equity classification and are recorded within Stockholders’ Equity. Accordingly, Public Warrants are initially measured at fair value and are not subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date unless, in subsequent periods the Public Warrants no longer qualify for equity classification. The fair value of the Public Warrants issued by the Company has been determined using the quoted price.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements not Yet Adopted

The FASB issued ASU No.2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”), which supersedes the current lease requirements in ASC 840, Leases. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and related lease liability for all leases, with a limited exception for short-term leases. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with the classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the statement of operations. Currently, leases are classified as either capital or operating, with any capital leases recognized on the consolidated balance sheets. The reporting of lease-related expenses in the consolidated statements of operations and cash flows will be generally consistent with the current guidance. The new lease guidance will be effective the earlier of the year ending January 31, 2023 or the time at which we no longer qualify as an EGC (“Emerging Growth Company”) and will be applied using a modified retrospective transition method to either the beginning of the earliest period presented or the beginning of the year of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting the new standard. The adoption of this standard will require the recognition of a right of use asset and liability on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 326). This standard requires a new method for recognizing credit losses that is referred to as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) method. The CECL method requires the recognition of all losses expected over the life of a financial instrument upon origination or purchase of the instrument, unless the Company elects to recognize such instruments at fair value with changes in profit and loss (the fair value option). This standard is effective for the Company for the earlier of the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 or the time at which we no longer qualify as an EGC. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on its financial statements.

New Accounting Pronouncement Adopted in Fiscal 2022

In December 2019, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which modifies and eliminates certain exceptions to the general principles of ASC 740, Income Taxes. ASU 2019-12 was adopted in the first quarter of fiscal 2022. The prospective adoption of ASU 2019-12 was not material.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles—Goodwill and of Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract. ASU 2018-15 was adopted in the third quarter of fiscal 2022. The prospective adoption of ASU 2018-15 was not material.

 

Segment and Geographic Information

Segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. The CODM reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for the purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. Accordingly, management has determined that the Company operates as one operating segment.

2. Restatement of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

 

11


 

IronNet has restated its previously issued unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements and related disclosures as of and for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2021 included in its Original Form 10-Q (as defined below) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in order to correct errors resulting from the incorrect application of generally accepted accounting principles relating to the recognition of stock-based compensation expense as it pertains to restricted stock unit awards (“RSUs”) granted under the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan. Additionally, the Company is also correcting for other previously identified immaterial errors. The applicable Notes were also updated to reflect the restatement.



Impact of Restatement

a) Correction of stock-based compensation expense: Subsequent to the issuance of the October 31, 2021 financial statements, it was determined that the Company considered the requisite service rendered by an employee to start from the original vesting commencement date of the award when calculating the stock-based compensation cost to recognize during the period for modified unvested awards for the three months ended October 31, 2021. Upon further evaluation, the Company determined that the correct expense recognition applicable under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718, Stock Compensation for a Type III (improbable-to-probable) modification requires the use of a method that utilizes the date of modification (August 26, 2021) as the beginning of the requisite service period for unvested portions of the awards outstanding, rather than the original vesting commencement date of the award
. The impact of correcting the requisite service period is to shift the recognition of stock-based compensation expense to later periods. The Company determined that the correction to stock-based compensation decreased stock-based compensation expense, as disclosed in Note 6. Stock Incentive Plan, and net loss by approximately $30.2 million for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2021.



These overstatements relate to stock-based compensation expense for certain of the Company’s RSUs granted pursuant to Legacy IronNet’s 2014 Stock Incentive Plan, which was approved in 2014 as part of Legacy IronNet’s overall compensation offerings.



b) Correction of immaterial errors related to the balances of accounts receivable, unbilled receivables, related party receivables, and deferred revenue: Subsequent to the issuance of the October 31, 2021 financial statements, an error was identified related to contracts with customers of approximately $
2.4 million, $1.2 million, $0.6 million, and $4.2 million for the respective account as of October 31, 2021. The Company was previously reporting receivable balances only to the extent that basic criteria for revenue recognition had already been satisfied, and was netting the receivable associated with deferred revenue against the corresponding deferred revenue balance. The Company has corrected the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements to increase the receivables and corresponding deferred revenue for which it has the unconditional right to receive the consideration as of October 31, 2021.
 



The following tables reflect the impact of the restatement adjustments to the specific line items presented in the Company’s previously issued unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements as of October 31, 2021 and for the three and nine months then ended (in thousands):

3. Reverse Recapitalization

 

On August 26, 2021, the Merger was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization under U.S. GAAP. Legacy IronNet was the accounting acquirer and Legacy LGL was the accounting acquiree for financial reporting purposes.

 

Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the financial statements of the Combined Company represent a continuation of the financial statements of Legacy IronNet, with the Merger being treated as the equivalent of Legacy IronNet issuing stock for the net assets of Legacy LGL, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Legacy LGL are stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Merger are presented as those of Legacy IronNet.

The earnout does not represent contingent consideration and is in accordance with ASC 815-40. The earnout shares were indexed to the Company’s own common stock and meet the requirements for equity classification.

 

Restricted Stock Units (Restated)

 

Under the terms of the Legacy IronNet’s restricted stock units, vesting of each award was subject to, among other conditions including a service requirement, the occurrence of a liquidity event, as defined by Legacy IronNet’s 2014 Stock Incentive Plan. On August 26, 2021, in connection with the close of the Merger with Legacy LGL, the Company’s Board of Directors resolved to deem the Merger as satisfying the Liquidity Event condition. The resolution resulted in a modification of the restricted stock unit awards under ASC 718 “Compensation—Stock Compensation. ”As a consequence of modification of the awards outstanding, the Company recognized a non-cash expense in the fiscal third quarter 2022 in an amount of $129,921 related to 16,634,972 outstanding RSUs, with 8,204,455 remaining unvested as of October 31, 2021.

5. Equity

Common Stock

As of October 31, 2021, the Company had 500,000,000 shares of Class A common stock authorized and 88,718,630 shares common stock issued and outstanding at $0.0001 par value per share.

Each share of Common Stock has 1 vote.

Preferred Stocks

The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share with such designation, rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s Board of Directors. At October 31, 2021, there were no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.

Warrants

 

Private Warrants

Simultaneously with the closing of Legacy LGL’s Initial Public Offering, the sponsor purchased an aggregate of 5,200,000 Private Warrants at a price of $1.00 per Private Warrant, for an aggregate purchase price of $5,200 from Legacy LGL. Over the period of September 2021 through October 2021, when the majority of these warrants were exercised on a cashless basis, the formula for such exercises made each Private Warrant effectively exercisable to purchase approximately 0.6 shares of Company common stock on a non-cash basis, each subject to its own exercise calculation applicable to the day on which the exercise was made. The Private Warrants were also redeemable in cash for $11.50 for a share of common stock. No Private Warrants were redeemed on the $11.50 cash basis. In September and October 2021, 5,189,800 Private Warrants were exercised on a cashless basis into 3,188,229 shares of Class A common stock. As of October 31, 2021, the Company had 10,200 Private Warrants outstanding and not exercised. During the period ended October 31, 2021, prior to the exercise of the Private warrants, the Company recognized in the interim condensed statements of operations $11,302 of non-cash expense related to change in fair value of warrants.

16


 

Public Warrants

Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares at a price of $11.50 per share. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the Public Warrants. The Public Warrants became exercisable in September 2021. The Public Warrants will expire five years after the completion of the Merger or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

Once the warrants became exercisable upon the effective date of the Company’s S-1 registration statement, the Company obtained the ability to redeem the Public Warrants:

in whole and not in part;
at a price of $0.01 per warrant;
upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption; and
if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like and subject to adjustment as described below) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third business day prior to the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the Warrant Agreement.

In October, 28,719 Public Warrants were exercised in an amount of $330 and 28,719 shares were issued at a price of $11.50. As of October 31, 2021, the Company had 8,596,273 Public Warrants outstanding and not exercised.

 

6. Stock Incentive Plan

Legacy IronNet’s Board of Directors adopted and the stockholders approved Legacy IronNet’s 2014 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”) on September 29, 2014 and on October 17, 2014, respectively. The 2014 Plan was periodically amended, most recently on June 7, 2019. The 2014 Plan permitted the grant of incentive stock options “ISOs,” non-qualified stock options “NSOs,” stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units “RSUs,” and other stock-based awards. ISOs were only able to be granted to Legacy IronNet’s employees and to any of the employees of Legacy IronNet’s subsidiary corporations’ employees. All other awards could be granted to employees, directors and consultants of Legacy IronNet’s and to any of Legacy IronNet’s parent or subsidiary corporation’s employees or consultants.

On August 26, 2021, the closing date of the Merger, per the Merger Agreement, the outstanding Legacy IronNet ISO and RSU grants issued under the 2014 Plan were converted to their post-transaction equivalents based on the conversion ratio, which total 18,971,549 shares in the Combined Company when exercised or converted. Additionally, as of the closing date, the 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”) was approved by Legacy LGL’s stockholders. Under the 2021 Plan, the Company may grant ISOs, RSUs and other equity securities to acquire, to convert into or to receive up to 13,500,000 shares of Class A common stock. As of October 31, 2021, there were 13,500,000 share equivalents that remained available to issue under the 2021 Plan.

All share equivalents issued or issuable under the 2014 Plan and the 2021 Plan (the “Stock Incentive Plans”) normally vest over a forty-eight month period with an initial catch up of 25% vesting at the end of the first year during which no vesting occurs. In limited cases, vesting as short as twelve months with no cliff, vesting based on performance criteria and acceleration under certain events have also been permitted; however, such exceptions apply to less than 15% of the share equivalents authorized under the Stock Incentive Plans.

 

With regard to stock option grants, the exercise price of each ISO granted under the Stock Incentive Plans may not be less than the fair market value per share of the underlying Class A common stock on the date of grant. The Board of Directors establishes the term and the vesting of all options issued under the Stock Incentive Plans; however, in no event will the term exceed ten years. The fair value of each stock option and RSU award was originally estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model using the independent valuations of the Company’s stock. The Company’s determination of the fair value of stock options and restricted stock units is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as a number of subjective and complex assumptions. These assumptions include the Company’s volatility, dividend yield, and risk-free interest rate.

For the three months ended October 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company recorded $8 and $(29) of compensation cost related to stock options, respectively. For the nine months ended October 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company recorded $40 and $27 of compensation cost related to stock options, respectively.

 

The RSUs granted under the 2014 Plan contain an additional vesting requirement that, in addition to the applicable time or performance vesting criteria noted above, also requires the occurrence of a liquidity event. On the date of the Merger, the Board of Directors resolved that the Merger constituted a liquidity event, triggering the liquidity event criteria for vesting. As detailed in Note 3, in connection with the close of the Merger with Legacy LGL, the Company recognized a non-cash expense in the fiscal third quarter 2022 in an amount of $129,921 (Restated).

 

Presented below is a summary of the status of outstanding RSUs, including showing the vesting status other than the liquidity event condition:

The fair value of each RSU was previously estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model based on the same assumptions utilized for calculating fair market value of the stock options and utilizing the as converted equivalent price of securities issued during the period. As the closing of the Merger represented the satisfaction of the liquidity event vesting requirement for outstanding RSUs, and vesting was not probable until that time, all RSUs issued prior to the completion of the Merger were revalued using a fair value of $12.85, which is the closing share price on that date.

Stock compensation expense for ISOs is recognized on a straight line basis and with a provision for forfeitures matched to historical experience for matured grant cohorts. Stock compensation expense for RSUs is recognized on a graded basis matched to the length and vesting tranches for each grant. In the event that a RSU grant holder is terminated before the award is fully vested, the full amount of the unvested portion of the award will be recognized as a forfeiture in the period of termination.

As of October 31, 2021, there was approximately $53,853 (Restated) of unrecognized compensation cost related to share-based compensation arrangements granted under the 2014 Plan, of which $3 remained for options and $53,850 (Restated) remained for RSUs, respectively. The fair value of the shares under stock options granted that vested, net of forfeitures, during the nine month periods ended October 31, 2021, and 2020 totaled $5,306 and $579, respectively, primarily as a result of the forfeitures recognized during the periods exceeding previous estimates.

 

Employee Stock Purchase Plan (‘ESPP’)

 

In August 2021, Legacy LGL’s Board of Directors adopted, and its stockholders approved, the ESPP. The ESPP became effective immediately upon the Closing of the Merger.

 

The purpose of the ESPP is to provide a means by which our eligible employees and certain designated companies may be given an opportunity to purchase shares of our common stock, to assist us in retaining the services of eligible employees, to secure and retain the services of new employees and to provide incentives for such persons to exert maximum efforts for our success.

 

The Plan includes two components: a 423 Component and a Non-423 Component. We intend that the 423 Component will qualify as options issued under an “employee stock purchase plan” as that term is defined in Section 423(b) of the Code. Except as otherwise provided in the ESPP or determined by our board of directors, the Non-423 Component will operate and be administered in the same manner as the 423 Component.

 

As of October 31, 2021, there were no purchases of shares for any eligible employee.

 

7. Fair Value Measurements

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction or paid to settle a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Accounting standards utilize a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels, which are described below:

a.
Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
b.
Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices that are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability.
c.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity.

These levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk of liquidity associated with the financial assets or liabilities disclosed. Assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement, as required under ASC 820-10 “Fair Value Measurement.”

Investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase are considered cash equivalents, while all other investments are classified as short-term or long-term based on their maturities and their availability for use in current operations.

 

The following table presents our assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

The Company recognized a non-cash expense of $11,302 related to the change in fair value of warrants.

 

At the effective date of the Merger, the Public Warrants were classified in equity at quoted prices (Level 1). Public Warrants are not revalued at the end of each reporting period.

 

8. Commitments and Contingencies

 

Contingencies

In the ordinary course of business, the Company and its subsidiary may become defendants in certain shareholder claims and other litigation. The Company records a liability when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount is reasonably estimable. To date, no such liability has been recorded.

Leases

18


 

The Company leases office space under the terms of noncancelable operating leases that expire at various dates through November 2026.Certain operating lease agreements provide for an annual 2.75% escalation of the base rent. The Company is also responsible for operating expenses. The following is a schedule by year of the future minimum lease payments required under the Company’s operating leases:

The Company is recognizing the total cost of its office leases ratably over the respective lease periods. The difference between rent paid and rent expense is reflected as deferred rent in the accompanying balance sheets.

Rent expense totaled $257 and $296 for the three months ended October 31, 2021, and October 31, 2020, respectively. Rent expense totaled $849 and $1,697 for the nine months ended October 31, 2021, and October 31, 2020, respectively.

 

In the second fiscal quarter of 2021, we completed lease buyouts of two office spaces in Maryland, for leases that were expiring in fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2022, and we have made payments of $394 to facilitate early terminations for those leases. Based on the Company moving to a more fully remote posture, we also decreased our lease portfolio in Japan and New York.

9. Income Taxes

 

The income tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of the Company’s annual effective tax rate as adjusted for discrete items arising in that quarter. The effective income tax rate was (0.0)% and (0.1)% for the nine months ended October 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The effective tax rate differs from the U.S. statutory rate primarily due to the full valuation allowances on the Company’s net domestic deferred tax assets and impact of foreign tax rate differential.

 

On March 27, 2020, the CARES Act was enacted and signed into U.S. law to provide economic relief to individuals and businesses facing economic hardship as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Changes in tax laws or rates are accounted for in the period of enactment. The income tax provisions of the CARES Act did not have a significant impact on our current taxes, deferred taxes, or uncertain tax positions.

 

10. Related Party Transactions (Restated)

 

Product, subscription and support revenue from Related Parties

 

Certain investors and companies who the Company is affiliated with purchased software, subscription and support revenue during the periods presented. The Company recognized $426 and $434 of revenue from contracts with related parties for the three months ending October 31, 2021, and October 31, 2020, respectively. The Company recognized $1,263 and $1,494 of revenue from contracts with related parties for the nine months ending October 31, 2021, and October 31, 2020, respectively. The corresponding receivable was $4,092 and $ 2,540 as of October 31, 2021, and January 31, 2021, respectively.

 

Subscription Notes Receivables

During the nine months ended October 31, 2021, the Company received pay offs of balances due of $843. For the nine months ended October 31, 2020, the Company received paid offs of balances due of $48. As of October 31, 2021, there are no remaining balances for subscription notes receivables. The subscription notes receivables’ accrued interest ranged from 1.40% to 2.70%, compounded annually.

11. Net Loss Per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders

 

Net Loss per common share

 

The Company computes basic earnings per share (EPS) by dividing income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the reporting period. Diluted EPS reflects the effect of potential shares that would be issued if stock option awards, Restricted Stock Units, Public and Private Warrants and preferred shares, to the extent issued, were converted into common stock, to the extent dilutive.

 

The following table summarizes the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders:

As of October 31, 2020 there were no Private or Public Warrants outstanding due to the fact that the Legacy LGL interim condensed consolidated balance sheet was consolidated and combined with Legacy IronNet as of the effective date of the Merger. Legacy LGL Public and Private Warrants as of August 26, 2021 were 8,624,992 and 5,200,000, respectively.

12. COVID-19 - CARES Act. provision

During fiscal 2021, in response to the increased economic uncertainties that the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic was expected to have on our business, results of operations, liquidity and capital resources, Legacy IronNet took measures to ensure that we could continue the continuity of our business operations through the use of funding measures which included the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan from the US Small Business Administration pursuant to the CARES Act. The purpose of the loan was for small businesses to keep their workforces employed through the pandemic. Legacy IronNet received loan funds of $5,580 on April 21, 2020. The loan bore interest at 1% and was payable in monthly installments beginning on September 15, 2021. As of October 31, 2021, and January 31, 2021, the Company had an interest accrual of $0 and $44 related to the PPP loan. The unsecured loan was evidenced by a promissory note of Legacy IronNet with PNC Bank (the “Lender”). As detailed in Note 3, on August 26, 2021, in conjunction with the Merger, the Company repaid in full all amounts due and terminated all commitments and obligations under the unsecured PPP loan.

In addition to seeking and receiving the PPP loan under the CARES Act, Legacy IronNet also elected to defer the Company portion of payroll taxes under the CARES Act. Amounts deferred from March 1, 2020 through to the end of 2020 will become due, at 50% on December 31, 2021, with the remaining 50% due on December 31, 2022. The balance of the payroll tax deferral is $1,378 as of October 31, 2021 and is included in Other current and Long-Term Liabilities on the balance sheet.

13. Retirement Plans

 

We provide a retirement savings plan for the benefit of our employees, including our named executive officers. The plan is intended to qualify as a tax-qualified 401(k) plan so that contributions, and income earned on such contributions, are not taxable to participants until withdrawn or distributed from the plan (except in the case of contributions under the 401(k) plan designated as Roth contributions). The 401(k) plan provides that each participant may contribute up to an annual statutory limit. Participants who are at least 50 years old can also contribute additional amounts based on statutory limits for “catch-up” contributions. Under the plan, each employee is fully vested in his or her deferred salary contributions. Employee contributions are held and invested by the plan’s trustee as directed by participants. We also fully match employee contributions up to the first 4% of salary, which amounts are fully vested.

 

14. Subsequent Events

 

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date the financial statements were originally issued, and has determined that the only material subsequent event that requires disclosure in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements is the approval on November 23, 2021 by the Compensation Committee of grants of 1,149,605 RSUs under the 2021 Plan for employees who had started with the company primarily after March 15, 2021, when the last grants under the 2014 Plan were made, and through November 15, 2021. Stock compensation amounts for the grants which had service periods beginning prior to October 31, 2021 will be included in stock compensation expense during the fourth quarter.

Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, references in this section to “IronNet,” “we,” “us,” “our”, “the Company” and other similar terms refer to IronNet, Inc. and its subsidiaries after giving effect to the Merger.

 

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the interim and annual consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s final prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September 30, 2021 pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Final Prospectus”). The interim condensed consolidated financial statements in this report are presented in U.S. dollars (USD) rounded to the nearest thousand, with the amounts in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) rounded to the nearest tenth of a million. Therefore, differences in the tables between totals and sums of the amounts listed may occur due to such rounding.

 

The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those discussed below and in the Final Prospectus, particularly in the sections titled “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors.” Our fiscal year end is January 31, and our fiscal quarters end on April 30, July 31, October 31, and January 31. Our fiscal years ended January 31, 2021 and January 31, 2020 are referred to herein as fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2020, respectively. The three months ended October 31, 2021 and October 31, 2020 are referred to herein as quarter to date 2022 and quarter to date 2021, respectively. The nine months ended October 31, 2021 and October 31, 2020 are referred to herein as year to date 2022 and year to date 2021, respectively.

 

Except with respect to statements in this Amendment No. 1 revised or provided to reflect the effects of the Restatement, forward-looking statements herein are as of the Original Form 10-Q, filed with the SEC on December 15, 2021, unless specifically stated to be made as of a different date, and the Company has not updated forward-looking statements or information to reflect events occurring after the Original Form 10-Q.

Overview

Gen. Keith B. Alexander (Ret.) founded IronNet in 2014 to solve the major cybersecurity problem he witnessed and defined during his tenure as former head of the NSA and founding Commander of U.S. Cyber Command: You can’t defend against threats you can’t see. Our innovative approach provides the ability for groups of organizations—within an industry sector, supply chain, state or country, for example—to see, detect and defend against sophisticated cyber attacks earlier and faster than ever before.

 

IronNet has defined a new market category called Collective Defense. IronNet has developed the Collective Defense platform, a solution that can identify anomalous (potentially suspicious or malicious) behaviors on computer networks and share this intelligence anonymously and in real time among Collective Defense community members. Collective Defense communities comprise groups of organizations that have common risks, such as a supply chain, a business ecosystem, or across an industry sector, a state, or a country. This cybersecurity model delivers timely, actionable, and contextual alerts and threat intelligence on attacks targeting enterprise networks, and functions as an early-warning detection system for all community members.

 

This new platform addresses a large and unwavering compound problem: limited threat visibility for increasingly borderless enterprises across sectors and at the national level, paired with ineffective threat knowledge sharing across companies and sectors and a “go it alone” approach to cybersecurity. These operational gaps, combined with market dynamics like the increased velocity of sophisticated cyber attacks and the deepening scarcity of qualified human capital, have set our mission to transform how cybersecurity is waged.

 

Restatement



As discussed in the Explanatory Note to this Amendment No. 1 and Note 2, “Restatement of Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements,” included in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company has restated certain information contained in its previously issued unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures as of October 31, 2021 and for the three and nine months then ended, as a result of the Company not appropriately applying modification accounting to stock-based compensation awards that were issued and outstanding as of August 26, 2021, the closing date of the merger between the Company and Legacy IronNet. When calculating the additional stock-based compensation cost to recognize for modified unvested awards for the three months ended October 31, 2021, the Company considered requisite service rendered by the employee to start from the original vesting commencement date of the award. Upon further evaluation, we determined that the correct expense recognition applicable under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718, Stock Compensation for a Type III (improbable-to-probable) modification requires the use of a method that utilizes the date of modification (August 26, 2021) as the beginning of the requisite service period for unvested portions of the awards outstanding, rather than the original vesting commencement date of the award. The impact of correcting the requisite service period start date is to shift the recognition of stock-based compensation expense to later periods.
 

 

Our Business

IronNet has focused on the development and delivery of a suite of advanced cybersecurity capabilities for detection, alerting, situational awareness and hunt/remediation combined into a comprehensive Collective Defense platform. IronNet complements these capabilities, delivered to both commercial and public sector enterprises, with professional services.

Software, Subscription and Support Revenue

Our primary line of business is the delivery of its integrated software capabilities through its Collective Defense platform. The platform is comprised of two flagship products:

IronDefense is an advanced NDR solution that uses AI-driven behavioral analytics to detect and prioritize anomalous activity inside individual enterprises. IronNet leverages advanced AI/ML algorithms to detect previously unknown threats, which are those that have not been identified and “fingerprinted” by industry researchers), in addition to screening known threats, and applies its Expert System to prioritize the severity of the behaviors—all at machine speed and cloud scale.

21


 

IronDome is a threat-sharing solution that facilitates a crowdsource-like environment in which the IronDefense threat detections from an individual company are shared among members of a Collective Defense community. IronDome analyzes threat detections across the community to identify broad attack patterns and provides anonymized intelligence back to all community members in real time, giving all members early insight into potential incoming attacks. Automated sharing across the Defense Community enables faster detection of attacks at earlier stages of the cyber kill chain.

 

Our Collective Defense platform delivers strong network effects: every customer contributing its threat data (anonymously) into the community reaps exponential benefits from the shared intelligence of the other organizations. The collaborative aspect of Collective Defense, and the resulting prioritization of alerts based on their potential severity, helps address the known problem of “alert fatigue” that plagues overwhelmed security analysts.

 

The Collective Defense platform is available for on-premise, cloud (public or private), and hybrid environments, and is scalable to include small-to-medium businesses, public-sector agencies, as well as multinational corporations. We utilize the platform to provide professional cybersecurity services such as incident response and threat hunting, as well as programs to help customers assess cybersecurity governance, maturity, and readiness. Our customer support services are designed to create shared long-term success measures with our customers, differentiating us from other cybersecurity vendors by working alongside customers as partners and offering consultative and service capabilities well beyond implementation of our Collective Defense platform.

 

The Collective Defense platform is available via a subscription-based pricing and flexible delivery model, with options available for major public cloud providers such as AWS and Microsoft Azure; private cloud, or HCI such as Nutanix; and on-premise environments through hardware and virtual options. To make it as easy as possible for customers to add Collective Defense into their existing security stack, we built a rich set of APIs that enable integrations with standard security products, SIEM; SOAR; EDR; NGFW tools; and cloud-native logs from major public cloud providers.

Professional Services

We sell professional services, including development of national cybersecurity strategies, cyber operations monitoring, security, training, red team, incident response and tailored maturity assessments. Revenue derived from these services is recognized as the services are delivered.

 

Financing to Date

To date, IronNet has financed its operations primarily through private and public placements of common stock, warrants, redeemable convertible preferred stock and the closing of the Merger.

 

On August 26, 2021, the Company received $13.3 million held in Legacy LGL’s trust account net of redemptions.

In connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, a number of purchasers (each, a “Subscriber”) purchased from the Company an aggregate of 12,500,000 shares of Company common stock (the “PIPE Shares”), for a purchase price of $10.00 per share and an aggregate purchase price of $125.0 million, pursuant to separate subscription agreements entered into effective as of March 15, 2021. Transaction costs associated with the issuance of the PIPE shares were $21.2 million.

 

During the nine months ended October 31, 2021, IronNet incurred a net loss of $195.6 million, of which $129.9 million related to a non-cash expense related to the modification of Restricted Stock Units, as well as a further non-cash expense to reflect the increase in fair market value in private warrants through the dates they were exercised, and used $59.3 million in cash to fund operations. As of October 31, 2021, IronNet had $73.9 million of cash on hand to continue to fund operations.

IronNet expects its capital and operating expenditures to increase in connection with its ongoing activities, as IronNet:

1.
continues to invest in research and development related to new technologies;
2.
increases its investment in marketing and advertising, as well as the sales and distribution infrastructure for its products and services;
3.
maintains and improves operational, financial, and management information systems;
4.
hires additional personnel;
5.
obtains, maintains, expands, and protects its intellectual property portfolio; and
6.
enhances internal functions to support its operations as a publicly-traded company.

 

Impact of COVID-19 On Our Business

In December 2019, the first cases of COVID-19 were reported in China. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. We operate in geographic locations that have been impacted by COVID-19. The pandemic has impacted, and could further impact, our operations and the operations of our customers as a result of quarantines, various local, state and federal government public health orders, facility and business closures, and travel and logistics restrictions. We anticipate governments and businesses will likely take additional actions or extend existing actions to respond to the risks of the COVID-19 pandemic. We are continuing to actively monitor the impacts and potential impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our customers, supply chain, and other integral parts of our operations. As the pandemic continues to varying impacts around the globe, we have noted that it has impacted the timing of certain of our professional services revenues.

 

We instituted a global work-from-home policy in March 2020 and to date have not experienced significant disruptions as a result. We expect that most of our employees will work from home indefinitely. As part of our shift to remote operations, we terminated several office leases that did not have a material financial impact on us.

 

In response to the increased economic uncertainties that the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic was expected to have on our business, results of operations, and liquidity and capital resources, we took measures to ensure that we would be able to maintain the continuity of our business operations. For example, in April 2020 we obtained a loan in the amount of $5.6 million from the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) under the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) which was paid in full at the date of the Merger, August 26, 2021.

 

In addition to receiving a PPP loan under the CARES Act, we also elected to defer our portion of payroll taxes due for the period from March 2020 through December 31, 2020. Of the deferred amounts, one-half will become due on each of December 31, 2021 and 2022.

Key Factors Affecting Performance

New customer acquisition

Our future growth depends in large part on our ability to acquire new customers. If our efforts to attract new customers are not successful, our revenue may decline in the future. Our IronDefense and IronDome platforms are designed to be used in conjunction with point solutions to capture and share critical data and findings to enable our behavioral analytics to identify threats and for defenders to respond more accurately and quickly. IronNet believes that it has significant room to capture additional market share and intends to continue to invest in sales and marketing to engage its prospective customers, increase brand awareness, and drive adoption of its solution.

 

Customer retention

Our ability to increase revenue depends in large part on our ability to retain existing customers.

Investing in business growth

Since inception, we have invested significantly in the growth of our business. While remaining judicious and targeted in our investments, we intend to continue to invest in our research and development team to lead product improvements, our sales team to broaden our brand awareness and our general and administrative expenses to increase for the foreseeable future given the additional expenses for finance, compliance and investor relations as we grow as a public company. In addition to our internal growth, we may also consider acquisitions of businesses, technologies, and assets that complement and bolster additional capabilities to our product offerings.

Key Business Metrics

We monitor the following key metrics to measure our performance, identify trends, formulate business plans and make strategic decisions.

 

Recurring Software Customers

We believe that our ability to increase the number of subscription and other recurring contract type customers on our platform is an indicator of our market penetration, the growth of our business, and our potential future business opportunities. We have a history of growing the number of customers who have contracted for our platforms on a recurring basis, which does not include our professional services customers. Our recurring software customers include customers who have a recurring contract for either or both of our IronDefense and IronDome platforms. These platforms are generally sold together, but they also can be purchased on a standalone basis. We have consistently increased the number of such customers period-over-period, and we expect this trend to continue as we increase subscription offerings to small and medium-sized businesses, in addition to increased subscription offerings for our larger enterprise customers. The following table sets forth the number of recurring software customers as of the dates presented:

Annual Recurring Revenue (“ARR”)

ARR is calculated at a particular measurement date as the annualized value of our then existing customer subscription contracts and the portions of other software and product contracts that are to be recognized over the course of the contracts and that are designed to renew, assuming any contract that expires during the 12 months following the measurement date is renewed on its existing terms. The following table sets forth our ARR as of the dates presented:

Dollar-based Average Contract Length

Our dollar-based average contract length is calculated from a set of customers against the same metric as of a prior period end. Because many of our customers have similar buying patterns and the average term of our contracts is more than 12 months, this metric provides a means of assessing the degree of built-in revenue repetition that exists across our customer base.

 

We calculate our dollar-based average contract length as follows:

a.
Numerator: We multiply the average total length of the contracts, measured in years or fractions thereof, by the respective revenue recognized for the nine months ended October 31, 2021 and 2020, as applicable.
b.
Denominator: We use the revenue attributable to software and product customers for the nine months ended October 31, 2021 and 2020 in the numerator. This effectively represents the revenue base that is being generated by those customers.

 

Dollar-based average contract length is obtained by dividing the Numerator by the Denominator. Our dollar-based average contract length decreased from 3.2 to 2.8 years, or (13)%, for the nine months ended October 31, 2021 as compared to the nine months ended October 31, 2020. As our revenues and our customer base increases, we expect our average contract length to trend downward over time. Declines in average contract length are not reflective of the average lifetime of a customer.

Calculated Billings

Calculated billings is a non-GAAP financial measure that we believe is a key metric to measure our periodic performance. Calculated billings represent our total revenue plus the change in deferred revenue in a period. Calculated billings in any particular period aims to reflect amounts invoiced to customers to access our software-based, cybersecurity analytics products, cloud platform and professional services, together with related support services, for our new and existing customers. We typically invoice our customers on multi-year or annual contracts in advance, either annually or monthly.

Calculated billings decreased $4.8 million, or 20%, for the nine months ended October 31, 2021 in comparison with the nine months ended October 31, 2020. Calculated billings decreased $0.5 million, or 6%, for the three months ended October 31, 2021 in comparison with the three months ended July 31, 2021. We expect that calculated billings will be affected by timing of entering into agreements with customers and the mix of billings in each reporting period as we typically invoice customers multi-year or annually in advance and, to a lesser extent, monthly in advance.

While we believe that calculated billings may be helpful to investors because it provides insight into the cash that will be generated from sales of our subscriptions, this metric may vary from period-to-period for a number of reasons, and therefore has a number of limitations as a quarter-to-quarter or

year-over-year comparative measure. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate similarly-titled non-GAAP measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our metric of calculated billings as a tool for comparison. Because of these and other limitations, you should consider calculated billings along with revenue and our other GAAP financial results.

 

The following table presents a reconciliation of revenue, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, to calculated billings:

Components of Our Results of Operations

Revenue

Our revenues are derived from sales of product, subscriptions, subscription-like software products and software support contracts as well as from professional services. Products, subscriptions and support revenues accounted for 89% our revenue in quarter to date 2022, for 85% of our revenue in quarter to date 2021, for 93% of our revenue in year to date 2022 and for 83% of our revenue in year to date 2021. Professional services revenues accounted for 11% of our revenue in quarter to date 2022, for 15% of our revenue in our quarter to date 2021, for 7% of our revenue in year to date 2022 and for 17% of our revenue in year to date 2021.

 

24


 

Our typical customer contracts and subscriptions range from one to five years. We typically invoice customers in advance. We combine intelligence dependent hardware and software licenses as well as subscription-type deliverables with the related threat intelligence and support and maintenance as a single performance obligation, as it delivers the essential functionality of our cybersecurity solution. Most companies also participate in the IronDome collective defense software solution that provides them access to IronNet’s collective defense infrastructure linking participating stakeholders. As a result, we recognize revenue for this single performance obligation ratably over the expected term with the customer. Amounts that have been invoiced are recorded in deferred revenue or they are recorded in revenue if the revenue recognition criteria have been met. Significant judgement is required for the assessment of material rights relating to renewal options associated with our contracts.

 

Professional services revenues are generally sold separately from our products and include services such as development of national cyber security strategies, cyber operations monitoring, security, training, red team, incident response and tailored maturity assessments. Revenue derived from these services is recognized as the services are delivered.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of product, subscription and support revenue includes expenses related to our hosted security software, employee-related costs of our customer facing support, such as salaries, bonuses and benefits, an allocated portion of administrative costs and the amortization of deferred costs.

 

Cost of professional services revenue consists primarily of employee-related costs, such as salaries, bonuses and benefits, cost of contractors and an allocated portion of administrative costs.

 

Gross Profit

Gross profit, calculated as total revenue less total costs of revenue is affected by various factors, including the timing of our acquisition of new customers, renewals from existing customers, the data center and bandwidth costs associated with operating our cloud platform, the extent to which we expand our customer support organization, and the extent to which we can increase the efficiency of our technology and infrastructure through technological improvements. Also, we view our professional services in the context of our larger business and as a significant lead generator for future product sales. Because of these factors, our services revenue and gross profit may fluctuate over time.

 

Operating Expenses

Research and development

Our research and development efforts are aimed at continuing to develop and refine our products, including adding new features and modules, increasing their functionality, and enhancing the usability of our platform. Research and development costs primarily include personnel-related costs and acquired software costs. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

 

Sales and marketing

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of employee compensation and related expenses, including salaries, bonuses and benefits for our sales and marketing employees, sales commissions that are recognized as expenses over the period of benefit, marketing programs, travel and entertainment expenses, and allocated overhead costs. We capitalize our sales commissions and recognize them as expenses over the estimated period of benefit.

 

We intend to continue to make significant investments in our sales and marketing organization to drive additional revenue, further penetrate the market and expand our global customer base. In particular, we will continue to invest in growing and training our sales force, broadening our brand awareness and expanding and deepening our channel partner relationships. We expect our sales and marketing expenses to decrease as a percentage of our revenue over the long term, although our sales and marketing expenses may fluctuate as a percentage of our revenue from period to period due to the timing and extent of these expenses.

General and administrative

General and administrative costs include salaries, stock-based compensation expenses, and benefits for personnel involved in our executive, finance, legal, people and culture, and administrative functions, as well as third-party professional services and fees, and overhead expenses.

 

 

We expect that general and administrative expenses will increase in absolute dollars as we hire additional personnel and enhance our systems, processes, and controls to support the growth in our business as well as our increased compliance and reporting requirements as a public company.

Other income (expense), net

Other income (expense), net consists primarily of interest income, interest expense, and foreign currency exchange gains and losses.

 

Change in fair value of warrants liabilities

This line item consists of non-cash expense that was recognized due to the change in fair value of warrants liabilities.

Provision for income taxes

Provision for income taxes consists of federal and state income taxes in the United States and income taxes and withholding taxes in certain foreign jurisdictions in which we conduct business. We maintain a full valuation allowance on our U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets.

Revenue

Total revenue decreased by $0.1 million or (1)% in quarter to date 2022 compared to quarter to date 2021.

 

Product, subscription and support revenue increased by $0.2 million or 3% primarily due to the Company’s transition from contracts that had material non-recurring elements which would not renew in full to contract forms that were designed to fully renew.

Professional services revenue decreased $0.3 million or (26)% in quarter to date 2022 compared to quarter to date 2021, primarily due to the completion of a key Enterprise engagement in quarter to date 2021. Professional services accounted for 11% of our total revenue in quarter to date 2022 and for 15% of our total revenue in quarter to date 2021.

 

Cost of revenue

Total cost of revenue increased by $0.3 million or 14%, in quarter to date 2022, compared to quarter to date 2021. Cost of product, subscription and support revenue increased by $0.8 million or 66%, in quarter to date 2022, compared to quarter to date 2021. The increase was due primarily to an increase in customer cloud costs with business scale and a $0.2 million amortization catch-up for deployed sensors during quarter to date 2022 compared to quarter to date 2021.

 

Cost of professional service cost of revenue decreased by $0.5 million when comparing quarter to date 2022 and quarter to date 2021, aligned to changes in professional services revenue.

 

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Mix changes in cost of revenue resulted in a decrease in software gross margin to 66% in quarter to date 2022 compared to 79% in quarter to date 2021, and an increase in professional services gross margin to 63% in quarter to date 2022 compared to 23% in quarter to date 2021. Quarter to date 2022 margin was lower due to amortization catch-up of $0.2 million that was not realized in the first half of fiscal 2022. In quarter to date 2021 we also onboarded several significant revenue customers which had not yet ramped their full cloud costs in the period and finalized the delivery of a key significant service contract in EMEA. This had materially increased margins in the comparable quarter last year. Professional services margin will continue to be volatile contract to contract as we scale the business.

 

We expect that gross margins for the rest of fiscal 2022 will improve slightly. Margins may remain volatile compared to fiscal 2021 due to the continuing presence of large contracts in our revenue mix.

 

The following tables show gross profit and gross margin, respectively, for software products and support revenue and professional services revenue for quarter to date 2022 as compared to quarter to date 2021.

Operating expenses

Research and development

Research and development expenses increased by $18.8 million or 330% in quarter to date 2022, compared to quarter to date 2021 primarily due to non-cash stock compensation expenses of $17.2 million triggered by the modification of the restricted stock units and ramping resources to support product development.

26


 

At 354% of total revenues in quarter to date 2022 compared to 81% in quarter to date 2021, we expect that our overall R&D expenditure rate as a percentage of revenues will decline in the future.

Sales and marketing

Sales and marketing cost increased by $44.1 million or 616% in quarter to date 2022, compared to quarter to date 2021, primarily due to non-cash stock compensation $43.5 million triggered by the modification of the restricted stock units and ramped sales and marketing personnel in quarter to date 2022. At 741% of revenues in quarter to date 2022 compared to 102% in quarter to date 2021, we expect that our overall sales and marketing expenditure rates as a percentage of revenues will decline in the future.

 

General and administrative

General and administrative costs increased by $75.0 million or 1591% when comparing quarter to date 2022 to quarter to date 2021, primarily due to non-cash stock compensation $69.2 million triggered by the modification of the restricted stock units and costs related to being public. Quarter to date 2022 general and administrative expenses were at 1153% of total revenues compared to 67% in quarter to date 2021.We expect that our overall general and administrative expenditure rates as a percentage of revenues will decline in the future.

 

Other (expense) income, net

The net fluctuation of $0.9 million in Other (expense) income is largely the result of interest expense of $0.7 million related to the PPP loan and SVB Bridge loan. These debts and the interest were paid off at the date of the Merger.

 

Change in fair value of warrants liabilities

$11.3 million of non-cash expense was recognized due to the change in fair value of warrants liabilities.

 

Provision for income taxes

The change in provision for income taxes was immaterial to the results of operations primarily due to our continued net loss position, the accumulation of net loss carryforwards, and offsetting valuation allowance.

Revenue

Total revenue decreased by $2.5 million or (11)% in year to date 2022 compared to year to date 2021.

 

Product, subscription and support revenue decreased slightly by $0.01 million primarily due to the net effect of the Company’s transition from contracts that had material non-recurring elements which would not renew in full, replaced by revenues from contract forms that were designed to fully renew with legacy customers and signing new customers.

 

Professional services revenue decreased $2.5 million or (65)% in year to date 2022 compared to year to date 2021, primarily due to the completion of a national cybersecurity strategy engagement in EMEA, a key Enterprise engagement, in fiscal 2021 and delays in professional services contract starts in year to date 2022 due to COVID-19. Professional services accounted for 7% of our total revenue in year to date 2022 and for 17% of our total revenue in year to date 2021.

 

Cost of revenue

Total cost of revenue increased by $1.0 million or 19%, in year to date 2022, compared to year to date 2021. Cost of product, subscription and support revenue increased by $2.0 million or 56%, in year to date 2022, compared to year to date 2021. The increase was due primarily to an increase in customer counts and related cloud hosting costs during year to date 2022 compared to year to date 2021.

27


 

 

Cost of professional service revenue decreased by $1.0 million or (61)% in year to date 2022, compared to year to date 2021. The decrease in cost of service revenue was primarily due to a decrease in overall professional services activity in year to date 2022 compared to year to date 2021.

 

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Mix changes in cost of revenue resulted in a decrease in software gross margin to 70% in year to date 2022 compared to 80% in year to date 2021, and a decrease in professional services gross margin to 54% in year to date 2022 compared to 58% in year to date 2021. In year to date 2021 we onboarded several significant revenue customers which had not yet ramped their full cloud costs in period and finalized delivery of key significant service contract in EMEA. This had materially increased margin in the comparable period last year. Professional services margin will continue to be volatile contract to contract as we scale the business.

 

We expect that gross margins for the rest of fiscal 2022 will improve. Margins may remain volatile compared to fiscal 2021 due to the continuing presence of large contracts in our revenue mix.

Operating expenses

Research and development

Research and development expenses increased by $19.0 million or 95%, in year to date 2022, compared to year to date 2021 primarily due to non-cash stock compensation expenses of $17.2 million triggered by the modification of the restricted stock units and the ramping external costs to support product development. At 201% of total revenues in year to date 2022 compared to 91% in year to date 2021, we expect that our overall R&D expenditure rate as a percentage of revenues will decline in the future.

 

Sales and marketing

Sales and marketing cost increased by $42.8 million or 184% in year to date 2022, compared to year to date 2021, primarily due to non-cash stock compensation expense $43.5 million triggered by the modification of the restricted stock units. At 341% of total revenues in year to date 2022 compared to 107% in year to date 2021, we expect that our overall sales and marketing expenditure rates as a percentage of revenues will decline in the future.

 

General and administrative

General and administrative costs increased by $74.7 million when comparing year to date 2022 to year to date 2021, primarily due to stock compensation expense of $69.2 million triggered by the modification of the restricted stock units and costs related to being public. Year to date 2022 general and administrative expenses were at 472% of total revenues compared to 76% in year to date 2021. We expect that our overall general and administrative expenditure rates as a percentage of revenues will decline in the future.

 

Other (expense) income, net

The net fluctuation of $1.2 million in Other (expense) income is largely the result of interest expense of $1.1 million related to the PPP loan and SVB Bridge loan. These debts and the interest were paid off at the date of the Merger.

 

Change in fair value of warrants liabilities

$11.3 million of non-cash expense was recognized due to the change in fair value of warrants liabilities.

 

Provision for income taxes

The change in provision for income taxes was immaterial to the results of operations primarily due to our continued net loss position, the accumulation of net loss carryforwards, and offsetting valuation allowance.

 

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources of Liquidity

We have incurred losses and negative cash flows from operations since Legacy IronNet’s inception. Through October 31, 2021, we have funded our operations with proceeds from sales of IronNet common stock and redeemable convertible preferred stock, proceeds related to public trust shares as part of the recapitalization, proceeds from PIPE shares, loans, and receipts from sales of our products and services to customers in the ordinary course of business and proceeds from the Reverse Recapitalization. As of October 31, 2021, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $73.9 million.

 

28


 

At the effective date of the Merger, the Company repaid the outstanding principal and interests related to the PPP loan and SVB Bridge Loan.

 

Long- Term Liquidity Requirements

Based on our growth plan, the Company believes that its cash on hand and collectable receivables, together with cash generated from sales of our products and services will satisfy its working capital and capital requirements for at least the next twelve months.

 

Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to the rate of our growth, our ability to attract and retain customers and their willingness and ability to pay for our products and services, and the timing and extent of spending to support our efforts to market and develop our products. Further, we may enter into future arrangements to acquire or invest in businesses, products, services, strategic partnerships, and technologies. As such, we may be required to seek additional equity or debt financing. In the event that additional financing is required from outside sources, we may not be able to raise it on terms acceptable to us or at all. If additional funds are not available to us on acceptable terms, or at all, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities during year to date 2022 was $(59.1 million), which resulted from a net loss of $(195.6 million), primarily driven by the modification of the restricted stock units awards of $129.9 million and related non-cash expenses. There was also an increase in the fair value of warrants liabilities of $11.3 million and an increase in accrued expenses. This was offset by an increase in accounts receivable of $7.2 million.

 

Net cash used in operating activities during year to date 2021 was $(39.9 million), which resulted from a net loss of $(43.2 million) adjusted for noncash charges of $1.3 million. Non-cash charges primarily consisted of $0.9 million of depreciation and amortization expense. Cash used in operating activities during year to date 2021 benefited from the change in deferred revenue of $2.7 million, offset by a change in accounts receivable of $(1.0 million).

 

The overall increase in net cash used in operating activities by the Company in 2022 compared to 2021 was driven by an increase in cash operating expenses of approximately $6.6 million, primarily due to one-time expenses of preparing for and completing the Merger as well as the new recurring costs of operating as a public company, decreases in services revenue and increases in cost of sales totaling approximately $3.4 million as more customers analytics came more fully online, and, on the balance sheet, primarily an increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets of $3.2 million.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities during year to date 2022 of $(2.2 million) was primarily due to $(2.1 million) in purchases of property and equipment.

 

Net cash provided by investing activities during year to date 2021 of $1.1 million was primarily due to net proceeds from sales and maturities of investments of $1.4 million offset by $(0.4 million) in purchases of property and equipment.

 

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities of $103.4 million during year to date 2022 was primarily due to gross proceeds from the Merger recapitalization of $13.3 million and issuance of PIPE Shares of $125.0 million and borrowing related to the SVB Bridge loan for $15.0 million, offset by payment of PPP loan and SVB Bridge loan of $5.6 million.

Net cash provided by financing activities of $49.7 million during year to date 2021 was primarily due to net proceeds from our issuance of common stock of $44.1 million and the net proceeds from the PPP loan of $5.6 million. The PPP loan was fully paid on August 26, 2021 as part of the Merger.

 

Contractual obligations

Our principal commitments consist of lease obligations for office space. For more information regarding our lease obligations, see Note 8, Commitments and Contingencies to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

During year to date 2022 and in future years, we have made and expect to continue to make additional investments in our product, scale our operations, and continue to enhance our security measures. We will continue to expand the use of software systems to scale with our overall growth.

 

Off-Balance sheet arrangements

As of October 31, 2021, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, as well as related disclosures. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing

29


 

basis. Our estimates are based on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Our actual results could differ from these estimates.

 

The critical accounting policies, assumptions and judgements that we believe have the most significant impact on our consolidated financial statements are described below.

 

Revenue Recognition

Our revenues are derived from sales of software, subscriptions, support and maintenance, and other services. The Company satisfies performance obligations to recognize revenue for a single performance obligation ratably over the expected term with the customer.

 

Revenue is recognized when all of the following criteria are met:

1.
Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer—A contract with a customer to account for exists when (i) we enter 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) we determine that collection of substantially all consideration to which we 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.
2.
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 us, 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, we apply judgment to determine whether promised goods or services are capable of being distinct and 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.
3.
Determination of the transaction price—The transaction price is determined based on the consideration to which we will be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to the customer.
4.
Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract—We allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation based on the amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for transferring goods and services to the customer. If the contract contains a single performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation on a relative standalone selling price based on the observable selling price of our products and services.
5.
Recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy performance obligations—We satisfy 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.

Costs to Obtain or Fulfill a Contract

We capitalize incremental costs of obtaining a non-cancelable subscription and support revenue contract and on professional services revenue as contract acquisition costs. The capitalized amounts consist primarily of sales commissions paid to our direct sales force. The capitalized amounts are recoverable through future revenue streams under all non-cancelable customer contracts. Amortization of capitalized costs, which occurs on a straight line basis, is included in sales and marketing expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Contract fulfillment costs include appliance hardware and installation costs that are essential in providing the future benefit of the solution, which are also capitalized. We amortize our contract fulfillment costs ratably over the contract term in a manner consistent with the related revenue recognition on that contract and are included in cost of revenue.

 

Stock-based Compensation

 

Stock compensation expense for ISOs is recognized on a straight line basis and with a provision for forfeitures matched to historical experience for matured grant cohorts. Stock compensation expense for RSUs is recognized on a graded basis matched to the length and vesting tranches for each grant. In the event that a RSU grant holder is terminated before the award is fully vested, the full amount of the unvested portion of the award will be recognized as a forfeiture in the period of termination.

 

We use the Black-Scholes pricing model to estimate the fair value of options on the date of grant. On August 26, 2021, the Board authorized that the Liquidity Event Satisfaction for the restricted stock units will be deemed to have been met as a result of the merger and shares of common stock subject to the awards will be delivered, in accordance with the terms of the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement. As a consequence, the Company recognized a non cash expense in the fiscal third quarter 2022 in an amount of $129.9 million related to 16,634,972 outstanding RSUs, 8,204,455 remain unvested as of October 31, 2021.

 

The use of a valuation model requires management to make certain assumptions with respect to selected model inputs. We grant stock options at exercise prices determined equal to the fair value of common stock on the date of the grant. The fair value of our common stock at each measurement date is based on a number of factors, including the results of third-party valuations, our historical financial performance, and observable arms-length sales of our capital stock including convertible preferred stock, and the prospects of a liquidity event, among other inputs. We estimate an expected forfeiture rate for stock options, which is factored into the determination of stock-based compensation expense. The volatility assumption is based on the historical and implied volatility of our peer group with similar business models. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a remaining term equal to the expected life assumed at the date of grant. The dividend yield percentage is zero because we do not currently pay dividends nor do we intend to do so in the future.

 

These estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the use of different assumptions may have resulted in stock-based compensation expense that was different from the amounts recorded.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

Refer to Note 1 of the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included in this Amendment No. 1 for our assessment of recently issued and adopted accounting standards.

 

Commitments and Contingencies

30


 

Refer to Note 8 of the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included in this Amendment No. 1, Commitments and contingencies

Emerging Growth Company (“EGC”) Status

We are an emerging growth company, as defined in the JOBS Act. Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can delay adopting new or revised accounting standards issued subsequent to the enactment of the JOBS Act until those standards apply to private companies. We have elected to use this extended transition period for complying with certain new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until the earlier of the date we (i) are no longer an EGC or (ii) affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition period provided in the JOBS Act. As a result, our consolidated financial statements may or may not be comparable to companies that comply with new or revised accounting pronouncements as of public companies’ effective dates.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We have operations in the United States and internationally, and we are exposed to market risk in the ordinary course of our business.

 

Foreign Currency Risk

The significant majority of our sales contracts are denominated in U.S. dollars, with a small number of contracts denominated in foreign currencies. A portion of our operating expenses are incurred outside the United States, denominated in foreign currencies and subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, particularly changes in the Singapore Dollar, British Pound, Japanese Yen and Australian Dollar. Additionally, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates may cause us to recognize transaction gains and losses in our consolidated statements of operations. The effect of a hypothetical 10% change in foreign currency exchange rates applicable to our business would not have a material impact on our historical consolidated financial statements for year to date 2022 or fiscal year 2021. As the impact of foreign currency exchange rates has not been material to our historical operating results, we have not entered into derivative or hedging transactions, but we may do so in the future if our exposure to foreign currency becomes more significant.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

As discussed in the Explanatory Note to this Amendment No. 1 and in connection with the Restatement of our unaudited financial statements as of October 31, 2021, and for the three and nine months then ended, we determined that our control over stock-based compensation modification did not operate effectively, resulting in a material error in the financial statements. Refer to Note 2, for discussion regarding the Restatement impacts.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures (as such terms are defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the quarter ended October 31, 2021. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of October 31, 2021 because of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described below. In light of the material weaknesses described below, the Company performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures to determine its interim condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management concluded that the financial statements included in this Amendment No. 1 fairly state the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended October 31, 2021, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting

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.

Management determined that, as of January 31, 2022, we did not have a sufficient number of personnel with an appropriate degree of accounting and internal controls knowledge, experience, and training to appropriately analyze, record and disclose accounting matters commensurate with our accounting and reporting requirements, which resulted in an inability to consistently establish appropriate authorities and responsibilities in pursuit of our financial reporting objectives, which constitutes a material weakness. This material weakness contributed to the following additional material weaknesses:

We did not design and maintain effective controls over the accounting for stock-based compensation modifications. This material weakness resulted in the restatement of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended October 31, 2021.
We did not design and maintain effective controls over the review of journal entries and account reconciliations. Specifically, certain personnel have the ability to both (i) create and post journal entries within our general ledger system, and (ii) prepare and review account reconciliations. This material weakness did not result in a material misstatement to the consolidated financial statements.
We did not design and maintain effective controls over information technology ("IT") general controls for information systems that are relevant to the preparation of our financial statements. Specifically, we did not design and maintain: (i) program change management controls for the financial systems to ensure that information technology program and data changes affecting financial IT applications and underlying accounting records are identified, tested, authorized and implemented appropriately; (ii) appropriate user access controls to ensure appropriate segregation of duties and that adequately restrict user and privileged access to financial applications, programs and data to appropriate personnel; (iii) computer

31


 

operations controls to ensure data backups are authorized and restorations monitored; and (iv) testing and approval controls for program development to ensure that new software development is aligned with business and IT requirements. This material weakness did not result in a material misstatement to the consolidated financial statements.

These material weaknesses could result in a misstatement of substantially all accounts or disclosures that would result in a material misstatement to the annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.
 

Remediation Plan

We have committed significant effort and resources to the remediation and improvement of our internal control over financial reporting. These remediation measures are ongoing and include the following:

1.
we hired and continue to hire additional accounting and finance resources with public company experience, including expertise in technical accounting and complex transactions, in addition to utilizing third-party consultants and specialists, to supplement our internal resources;
2.
we are revising account reconciliation controls within all business processes to require proper segregation of duties of preparer and reviewer utilizing the additional personnel mentioned above.
3.
we are implementing comprehensive access control protocols to implement restrictions on user and privileged access to certain applications and establishing additional controls over the preparation and review of journal entries,
4.
we are redesigning and strengthening financial system and application change management controls, testing and approval controls for program development, as well as data backup and restoration controls.

The elements of our remediation plan can only be accomplished over time and are subject to continued review, implementation and testing by management, as well as oversight by the audit committee of our board of directors, to determine that it is achieving its objectives. We are in the process of designing and implementing a variety of steps to remediate these weaknesses. The material weaknesses will not be considered remediated until our remediation plan has been fully designed and implemented, the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time, and we have concluded, through testing, that the newly implemented and enhanced controls are operating effectively.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

 

From time to time, we may become involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business. We are not currently a party to any material legal proceedings, and we are not aware of any pending or threatened legal proceeding against us that we believe could have an adverse effect on our business, operating results or financial condition.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

Our business is subject to numerous risks that you should carefully consider. These risks are more fully described in the section titled “Risk Factors” included in our final prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, on September 30, 2021. A summary of these risks that could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results and prospects include the following:

 

 

 

We have experienced rapid growth in recent periods, and if we do not manage our future growth, our business and results of operations will be adversely affected.

 

 

 

We have a history of losses and we may not be able to achieve or sustain profitability in the future.

 

 

 

If organizations do not adopt cloud-enabled, and/or SaaS-delivered cybersecurity solutions that may be based on new and untested security concepts, our ability to grow our business and results of operations may be adversely affected.

 

 

 

Competition from existing or new companies could cause us to experience downward pressure on prices, fewer customer orders, reduced margins, the inability to take advantage of new business opportunities and loss of market share.

 

 

 

If our solutions fail or are perceived to fail to detect or prevent incidents or have or are perceived to have defects, errors, or vulnerabilities, our brand and reputation would be harmed, which would adversely affect our ability to maintain and grow our business and our results of operations.

 

 

 

We rely on third-party data centers and our own colocation data centers to host and operate our platform, and any disruption of or interference with its use of these facilities may negatively affect our ability to maintain the performance and reliability of our platform, which could cause our business to suffer.

 

 

 

Our future success will be substantially dependent on our ability to attract, retain, and motivate the members of our management team and other key employees throughout our organization, and the loss of one or more key employees or an inability to attract and retain highly skilled employees could harm our business.

 

 

 

If we are unable to maintain successful relationships with our distribution partners, or if our distribution partners fail to perform, our ability to market, sell and distribute our platform and solutions efficiently will be limited, and our business, financial position and results of operations will be harmed.

 

 

 

Our business depends, in part, on sales to government organizations, and significant changes in the contracting or fiscal policies of such government organizations could have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

 

 

 

The success of our business will depend in part on our ability to protect and enforce our intellectual property rights.

 

 

 

We subject to laws and regulations, including governmental export and import controls, sanctions, and anti-corruption laws, that could impair our ability to compete in our markets and subject us to liability if we are not in full compliance with applicable laws.

 

32


 

 

 

 

Our management has identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting and may identify additional material weaknesses in the future or otherwise fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, which may result in material misstatements of our financial statements or cause us to fail to meet our periodic reporting obligations.

 

There have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth in the Final Prospectus filed with the SEC on September 30, 2021, which are incorporated herein by reference. However, the risk factors described in this Amendment No. 1 and in the Final Prospectus are not the only risks that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties that we are unaware of, or that we currently believe are not material, may also become important factors that adversely affect our business. If any such risks materialize, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects and cause the trading price of our common stock to decline.
