Business Description, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

1. Business Description, Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Business Description:

ClearOne, Inc., together with its subsidiaries (collectively, “ClearOne” or the “Company”), is a global market leader enabling conferencing, collaboration, and AV streaming solutions for voice and visual communications. The performance and simplicity of our advanced, comprehensive solutions offer unprecedented levels of functionality, reliability and scalability.

Basis of Presentation:

The fiscal year for ClearOne is the twelve months ending on December 31. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ClearOne and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

These accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and are not audited. Certain information and footnote disclosures that are usually included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) have been either condensed or omitted in accordance with SEC rules and regulations. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, and the cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full-year period. These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the SEC.

Significant Accounting Policies:

The significant accounting policies were described in Note 1 to the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. There have been no changes to these policies during the quarter ended March 31, 2023 that are of significance or potential significance to the Company.

Recent accounting pronouncements:

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326). The new standard amends guidance on reporting credit losses for assets held at amortized cost basis and available-for-sale debt securities. In February 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-02, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326) and Leases (Topic 842) - Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 119 and Update to SEC Section on Effective Date Related to Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which amends the effective date of the original pronouncement for smaller reporting companies. ASU 2016-13 and its amendments will be effective for the Company for interim and annual periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. CECL estimates of expected credit losses on trade receivables over their life will be required to be recorded at inception, based on historical information, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The Company adopted the standard in its first quarter of 2023. There was no material impact on the results of operations.

The Company has determined that recently issued accounting standards, other than the above discussed, will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Liquidity:

As of March 31, 2023, our cash and cash equivalents were approximately $59,006 compared to $984 as of December 31, 2022. Our working capital was $68,676 as of March 31, 2023. Net cash provided by operating activities was $60,321 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, an increase of $61,364 compared to $1,043 of cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The company announced a special one-time cash dividend of $1.00 per share or eligible warrant (please see Note 10 - Subsequent events) which will be paid on May 31, 2023 and is expected to generate cash outflows of approximately $28,978. The Company also paid approximately $6,600 towards income taxes in April 2023. The Company believes that the Company's core strategies of product innovation and prudent cost management will bring the company back to profitability in the future. The Company believes, although there can be no assurance, that the current cash position and all of these measures and effective management of working capital, will provide the liquidity needed to meet our operating needs through at least May 15, 2024. The Company also believes that its strong portfolio of intellectual property and its solid brand equity in the market will enable it to raise additional capital if and when needed to meet its short and long-term financing needs; however, there can be no assurance that, if needed, the Company will be successful in obtaining the necessary funds through equity or debt financing. If the Company needs additional capital and is unable to secure financing, it may be required to further reduce expenses, or delay product development and enhancement.

Liquidity:	Liquidity: As of March 31, 2023, our cash and cash equivalents were approximately $59,006 compared to $984 as of December 31, 2022. Our working capital was $68,676 as of March 31, 2023. Net cash provided by operating activities was $60,321 for the three months ended March 31, 2023, an increase of $61,364 compared to $1,043 of cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The company announced a special one-time cash dividend of $1.00 per share or eligible warrant (please see Note 10 - Subsequent events) which will be paid on May 31, 2023 and is expected to generate cash outflows of approximately $28,978. The Company also paid approximately $6,600 towards income taxes in April 2023. The Company believes that the Company's core strategies of product innovation and prudent cost management will bring the company back to profitability in the future. The Company believes, although there can be no assurance, that the current cash position and all of these measures and effective management of working capital, will provide the liquidity needed to meet our operating needs through at least May 15, 2024. The Company also believes that its strong portfolio of intellectual property and its solid brand equity in the market will enable it to raise additional capital if and when needed to meet its short and long-term financing needs; however, there can be no assurance that, if needed, the Company will be successful in obtaining the necessary funds through equity or debt financing. If the Company needs additional capital and is unable to secure financing, it may be required to further reduce expenses, or delay product development and enhancement.

9. Income Taxes

The current year loss did not result in income tax benefit due to recording a full valuation allowance against expected benefits. The valuation allowance was recorded as we concluded that it was more likely than not that our deferred tax assets were not realizable primarily due to the Company's recent pre-tax losses. Provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2023 mostly represents income tax expense recorded for jurisdictions outside the United States.

The Company had approximately $962 of uncertain tax positions as of March 31, 2023. Due to the inherent uncertainty of the underlying tax positions, it is not possible to forecast the payment of this liability for any particular year.

- Definition

The entire disclosure for income taxes. Disclosures may include net deferred tax liability or asset recognized in an enterprise's statement of financial position, net change during the year in the total valuation allowance, approximate tax effect of each type of temporary difference and carryforward that gives rise to a significant portion of deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets, utilization of a tax carryback, and tax uncertainties information.

Senior Convertible Notes and Warrants

On December 17, 2019, the Company completed the issuance and sale of $3,000 aggregate principal amount of secured convertible notes of the Company (the “Notes”) and warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase 340,909 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share of the Company (the “Common Stock”), in a private placement transaction. The Notes and Warrants were issued and sold to Edward D. Bagley, an affiliate of the Company, on the terms and conditions of a Note Purchase Agreement dated December 8, 2019 between the Company, certain subsidiary guarantors of the Company, and Mr. Bagley. Mr. Bagley was the beneficial owner of approximately 46.6% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock at the time that the Notes and Warrants were issued to him.

The Notes will mature on December 17, 2023 (the “Maturity Date”) and will accrue interest at a variable rate adjusted on a quarterly basis and equal to two and one-half percent (2.5%) over the greater of (x) five and one-quarter percent (5.25%) and (y) the Prime Rate as published in the Wall Street Journal (New York edition) as of the beginning of such calendar quarter. The Notes may be converted into shares of the Company’s Common Stock at any time at the election of Mr. Bagley at an initial conversion price of $2.11 per share (the “Conversion Price”), or 120% of the closing price of the Common Stock on December 6, 2019 as reported on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Also, the Company can cause a mandatory conversion of the Notes if the volume weighted average closing price of the Common Stock over 90 consecutive trading days exceeds 200% of the Conversion Price. In addition, the Notes may be redeemed by the Company for cash at any time after December 17, 2020 upon payment of the outstanding principal balance of the Notes and any unpaid and accrued interest. The Company also is required to redeem the Notes upon the occurrence of a change in control of the Company.

The Warrants have an initial exercise price equal to $1.76, the closing price of the Common Stock on December 6, 2019 as reported on the Nasdaq Capital Market, and are exercisable until December 17, 2026. The Warrants must be exercised for cash, unless at the time of exercise there is not a then effective registration statement for the resale of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, in which case the Warrants may be exercised via a cashless exercise feature that provides for net settlement of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise.

Concurrent with the issuance of the Notes and Warrants pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, the Company, the Guarantors and Mr. Bagley entered into a Guaranty and Collateral Agreement (the “Collateral Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company and the Guarantors granted Mr. Bagley a first priority lien interest in all of the Company’s assets as security for the Company’s performance of its obligations under the Notes and Warrants.

The net proceeds after original issue discount and issuance costs of $346 were approximately $2,654. The Company expected to use the proceeds from the sale of the Notes and Warrants for general corporate purposes and working capital.

In accounting for the issuance of the Notes, the Company separated Notes and Warrants into liability and equity components. The carrying amount of Warrants, being an equity component, was first calculated using Black-Scholes method with the following assumptions:

Risk-free interest rate	1.82%
Expected life of warrants (years)	7
Expected price volatility	49.4%
Expected dividend yield	0%

The carrying amount of the Notes was then determined by deducting the fair value of the Warrants from the principal amount of the Notes. The carrying amount of the Notes was further separated into equity and liability components after separating the value of the conversion feature into an equity component and leaving the remaining value as liability. The equity component is not remeasured while the Notes and Warrants continue to meet the conditions for equity classification for equity components.

The original issue discount and issuance costs are netted against the liability. The following table represents the carrying value of Notes and Warrants:

	March 31, 2023			December 31, 2022
Liability component:
Principal	$	1,695		$	1,920
Less: debt discount and issuance costs, net of amortization		(139	)		(188	)
Net carrying amount	$	1,556		$	1,732
Equity component⁽¹⁾:
Warrants	$	318		$	318
Conversion feature		122			122
Net carrying amount	$	440		$	440

Current portion of liability component included under short-term debt	$	1,556		$	1,920
Liability component total	$	1,556		$	1,920

(1) Recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as additional paid-in capital.

Debt discount and issuance costs are amortized over the life of the note to interest expense using the effective interest method. During the three months ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022 amortization of debt discount and issuance costs was $49 and $49, respectively. The following table represents schedule of maturities of principal amount contained in the Notes as of March 31, 2023:

Short-term Bridge Loans

On July 2, 2021, the Company obtained a bridge loan in the principal amount of $2,000 from Edward D. Bagley (the “2021 Bridge Loan”), an affiliate of the Company. The Bridge Loan was evidenced by a promissory note dated July 2, 2021 (the “Note”) issued by the Company to Mr. Bagley. The Note bore interest at a rate of 8.0% per annum. On September 11, 2021, the Company amended and restated the terms of the Bridge Loan to extend the latest maturity date from October 1, 2021 to January 3, 2022. All other terms and conditions of the Bridge Loan remained the same. On January 4, 2022, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Edward D. Bagley, pursuant to which the Company issued and sold to Mr. Bagley, in a private placement 1,538,461 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a purchase price of $1.30 per share of Common Stock. The consideration for the Shares was the cancellation and termination of Mr. Bagley’s outstanding bridge loan to the Company in the principal amount of $2,000 originally issued on July 2, 2021 and amended and restated on September 11, 2021. Mr. Bagley is an affiliate of the Company and the Company’s single largest stockholder.

On October 28, 2022 the Company obtained a bridge loan in the principal amount of $2,000 from Edward D. Bagley (the “2022 Bridge Loan”), an affiliate of the Company. The 2022 Bridge Loan was evidenced by a promissory note dated October 28, 2022 (the “2022 Note”) issued by the Company to Mr. Bagley. The 2022 Note bore interest at a rate of 12.0% per annum and had a maturity date of October 28, 2023. Mr. Bagley is an affiliate of the Company and the Company’s single largest stockholder. This Bridge Loan of $2,000 is included under short-term debt as of December 31, 2022. In January 2023, the 2022 Bridge loan of $2,000 along with applicable interest was repaid in full.

3. Loss Per Share

Loss per common share is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and, when appropriate, dilutive potential common stock outstanding during the period. Stock options, warrants and the convertible portion of senior convertible notes are considered to be potential common stock. The computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share does not assume exercise or conversion of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect.

Basic earnings (loss) per common share is the amount of net earnings (loss) for the period available to each weighted-average share of common stock outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share is the amount of earnings (loss) for the period available to each weighted-average share of common stock outstanding during the reporting period and to each share of potential common stock outstanding during the period, unless inclusion of potential common stock would have an anti-dilutive effect.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per common share:
