10-Q

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Intelligent Protection Management Corp. reported higher revenue but wider losses for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2026. Total revenue was $6.46 million for the quarter and $12.82 million for the first half of 2026, up from $5.72 million and $11.24 million in the prior-year periods, driven mainly by managed IT and procurement services.

Costs grew faster than revenue, with total expenses of $7.97 million for the quarter and $15.10 million year‑to‑date, including $0.48 million of Cisco ManyCam litigation expense in the first half. The company recorded a quarterly operating loss of $1.51 million and a first‑half net loss of $2.01 million, compared with a net loss of $0.24 million a year earlier. Operating cash flow shifted from an inflow of $0.86 million to an outflow of $0.79 million.

As of June 30, 2026, cash and cash equivalents totaled $7.49 million, total assets were $28.36 million, and the company reported no long‑term debt. Deferred revenue rose to $4.47 million, reflecting contracted work to be recognized in future periods. Newtek and its affiliates contributed 28% of second‑quarter revenue, underscoring significant customer concentration alongside a 30.6% ownership stake.

Positive

  • Total revenue increased to $6.46 million in Q2 2026 and $12.82 million for the first half, up from $5.72 million and $11.24 million in the prior-year periods, indicating growth across managed IT and procurement services.
  • Deferred revenue rose to $4.47 million at June 30, 2026 from $3.88 million at December 31, 2025, providing contracted future revenue visibility for installed and in‑process products and services.

Negative

  • Net loss widened to $2.01 million for the first half of 2026 from $0.24 million a year earlier, as expense growth, including higher cost of revenue and litigation costs, outpaced revenue gains.
  • Operating cash flow deteriorated to a $0.79 million outflow for the first half of 2026 versus an $0.86 million inflow in the prior-year period, reducing financial flexibility despite a solid cash balance.
  • Customer concentration remains high, with Newtek and its affiliates representing 28% of Q2 2026 revenue and 29% of first‑half revenue, creating exposure to a single related-party customer.

Filing Explained

The $65.7 million patent award remains subject to a damages retrial and appeal, so the filing does not establish proceeds received.

As an unaudited quarterly report, the Form 10-Q provides interim financial statements and updates on risks and liquidity for the quarter ended June 30, 2026. For existing common holders, the filing records a completed repurchase of 50,000 shares and 316,000 newly granted options that remain unexercised.

The repurchases reduced common shares outstanding from 9,085,729 at December 31, 2025 to 9,035,729 at June 30, 2026. The options are rights to buy shares at a weighted average exercise price of $1.62, not shares currently issued; if exercised, they would increase the total share count and reduce existing holders’ percentage ownership absent offsetting changes.

At June 30, 2026, 998,550 options were outstanding, including 627,550 exercisable options, and 878,655 additional shares remained available for issuance under the 2025 incentive plan.

The filing reports a $65.7 million jury award in the Cisco WebEx patent case, but the trial court ordered a new trial on damages and Cisco’s appeal remains pending. The award is therefore not disclosed as collected proceeds; the company says the amount ultimately received would be no more than one-third of gross proceeds after litigation-related deductions.

The specified resolution point is the Federal Circuit appeal: the parties are expected to submit briefs during the second half of 2026, after which the court will decide whether to hold argument or decide on the briefs.

deferred revenue financial
"Deferred revenue was $4,469,109 as of June 30, 2026"
Cash a company has already received for goods or services it has promised but not yet delivered; it's recorded as a liability because the company still owes that product, service, or future revenue recognition. For investors, deferred revenue signals upcoming work or deliveries that will convert into reported sales over time and affects short-term obligations, cash flow quality, and how quickly a firm can grow recognized revenue—think of it like prepaid subscriptions or gift cards a business must honor later.
Tier 3 data center technical
"The Data Centers each conform to The Uptime Institute’s Tier 3 Certification"
A tier 3 data center is a high-availability facility built so critical systems (power, cooling, network) have redundant components and can be serviced without interrupting operations — like changing a car’s tire while it’s still running. For investors, tier 3 status signals lower operational risk and fewer outages, which protects revenue, customer contracts and reputation, though it carries higher construction and operating costs than lower-tier facilities.
Earn-Out Liability financial
"Newtek is also entitled to earnout payments up to $5,000,000 (the “Earn-Out” or “Earn-Out Liability”)"
A promise made during an acquisition to pay extra money later if the bought business hits agreed targets; the buyer records this promise as a potential debt on its books. Think of it like agreeing to pay a bonus after the seller’s product reaches certain sales—investors watch it because it can change a company’s future cash needs, reported liabilities and the true cost of a deal, altering valuation and downside risk.
Series A Preferred Stock financial
"4,000,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock were issued as consideration"
Series A preferred stock is a type of ownership share in a company that gives investors certain advantages, such as priority in receiving profits or getting their money back if the company is sold or goes bankrupt. It is often issued during early funding stages to attract investors by offering more security than common shares. This stock matters to investors because it provides a safer way to invest while still holding potential for future gains.
inter partes review regulatory
"the Company filed an inter partes review (“IPR”) with the Patent Review Board"
An inter partes review is a formal proceeding at the U.S. Patent Office where a third party asks a panel to re-examine and possibly cancel all or part of an issued patent based on earlier public information. Investors care because the outcome can remove or uphold a company’s exclusive rights, directly affecting product exclusivity, potential revenue, legal exposure and the valuation of businesses that rely on that patent—like asking a neutral referee to re-check a key call in a game.
Black-Scholes model financial
"The Company also uses a Black-Scholes model for estimates in calculating share-based compensation"
A mathematical formula used to estimate the fair price of options — contracts that give the right to buy or sell a stock at a set price. It combines current stock price, time until the option expires, expected price swings, interest rates and expected dividends to produce a single value, much like using a recipe to predict how a cake will turn out given ingredients and baking time. Investors use it to judge whether options are overpriced or underpriced and to help manage risk and trading strategies.

INTELLIGENT PROTECTION MANAGEMENT CORP.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

1. Organization and Description of Business

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include Intelligent Protection Management Corp. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, A.V.M. Software, Inc., Paltalk Software Inc., Paltalk Holdings, Inc., Tiny Acquisition Inc., Camshare, Inc., Fire Talk LLC, Vumber LLC, ManyCam ULC and Intelligent Protection LLC (collectively, the “Company”).

 

The Company provides a comprehensive range of IT-related services, including dedicated server hosting, cloud hosting, data storage, managed security, backup and disaster recovery, and other related services including consulting and implementing technology solutions for large enterprise and commercial clients across the United States as well as small-and-medium sized businesses. The Company has an over 20-year history of technology innovation and holds eight patents.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report have been prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial information. The Company has not included certain information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements pursuant to those rules and regulations, although it believes that the disclosure included herein is adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The condensed consolidated financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on March 17, 2026 (the “Form 10-K”).

 

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial information contains all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to fairly present the condensed consolidated balance sheets and statements of operations, cash flows and changes in stockholders’ equity of the Company for the interim periods presented. The Company’s historical results are not necessarily indicative of future operating results, and the results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of results for the year ending December 31, 2026, or for any other period.

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2026, there were no significant changes made to the Company’s significant accounting policies.

 

For a detailed discussion about the Company’s significant accounting policies, see the Form 10-K.

 

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on deposit with banks and money market funds. The Company maintained a certificate of deposit to satisfy the depository requirement in the Loan Agreements (as defined and discussed in Note 13). The Company maintains cash in bank accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. As part of its cash management process, the Company periodically reviews the relative credit standing of these banks. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and periodically evaluates the credit worthiness of the financial institutions and has determined the credit exposure to be negligible.

 

Accounts Receivable, net of allowance

 

Accounts receivable represents amounts owed to the Company by third parties for technology services and related residuals. The Company generally records a receivable when revenue is recognized as the timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of payment from customers. Payment terms and conditions vary by contract, although terms generally include a requirement of payment within 30 to 60 days. The Company’s accounts receivable do not bear interest and are recorded at the invoiced amount for those with unconditional rights to consideration. Accounts receivable are presented net of an allowance for credit loss on the condensed consolidated balance sheets for any potentially uncollectible accounts under the current expected credit loss model.

 

5

 

 

Segment Reporting

 

The Company reports its segment information to reflect the manner in which the chief operating decision maker (the “CODM”) reviews and assesses performance. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief Operating Officer have joint responsibility as the CODM and review and assess the performance of the Company as a whole.

 

The primary financial measures used by the CODM to evaluate performance and allocate resources are net income (loss) and operating income (loss). The CODM uses net income (loss) and operating income (loss) to evaluate the performance of the Company’s ongoing operations and as part of the Company’s internal planning and forecasting processes. Information on net income (loss) and operating income (loss) is disclosed in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Segment expenses and other segment items are provided to the CODM on the same basis as disclosed in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

The CODM does not evaluate performance or allocate resources based on segment assets, and therefore such information is not presented in the notes to the financial statements. The Company is a single-segment business.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty. Therefore, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Actual results inevitably will differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the financial statements. The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements include impairments and fair value estimates for assets acquired in business combinations and assessment of useful lives of acquired intangible assets. The fair values and estimates related to the Acquisition (as defined and discussed in Note 3) were based on a number of factors, including a valuation by an independent third party.  The Company also uses a Black-Scholes model for estimates in calculating share-based compensation.  

 

Revisions to the Company’s estimates may result in increases or decreases to revenues and income and are reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements in the periods in which they are first identified. If the Company’s estimates indicate that a contract loss will be incurred, a loss provision is recorded in the period in which the loss first becomes probable and can be reasonably estimated. Contract losses are the amount by which the estimated costs of the contract exceed the estimated total revenue that will be generated by the contract and are included in cost of revenues in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. There were no contract losses for the periods presented.

 

Business Combinations

 

The Company accounts for business combinations in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standards and Codifications (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations. Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method, whereby the consideration transferred is allocated to the net assets acquired based on their respective fair values measured on the acquisition date. The difference between the fair value of these assets and the purchase price is recorded as goodwill. Transaction costs other than those associated with the issue of debt or equity securities, and other direct costs of a business combination are not considered part of the business acquisition transaction and are expensed as incurred.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company’s revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer. The Company’s contracts with its customers often include promises to transfer multiple products and services. Determining whether products and services are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately versus together may require significant judgment. When a cloud-based service includes both on-premises software licenses and cloud services, judgment is required to determine whether the software license is considered distinct and accounted for separately, or not distinct and accounted for together with the cloud service and recognized over time. Certain cloud services depend on a significant level of integration, interdependency and interrelation between the desktop applications, and cloud services and are accounted for together as one performance obligation. Revenue from cloud services is recognized ratably over the period in which the cloud services are provided. The Company otherwise recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of a product or service or by arranging for the sale of a vendor’s products or service to a customer.

 

6

 

 

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of services as it performs the underlying services, typically based on time and materials basis based upon hours incurred for the performance completed to date for which the Company has the right to consideration. The Company recognizes revenue on sales of goods at a point in time when the customer takes control of the goods, which typically occurs when title and risk of loss have passed to the customer. In most cases, the Company serves as principal; therefore it recognizes revenue on a gross basis for each of the Company’s services and product offerings principally because the Company is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide specified goods or service, and the Company has discretion in establishing the price of specified good or service. When the Company serves as an agent, it recognizes revenue on a net basis.

 

The Company classifies its right to consideration in exchange for deliverables as either a receivable or a contract asset (unbilled receivable). A receivable is a right to consideration that is unconditional (i.e., only the passage of time is required before payment is due). For example, the Company recognizes a receivable for revenue related to the Company’s transaction- or volume-based contracts when earned regardless of whether amounts have been billed. Such receivables are presented in accounts receivable, net in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses to provide for the estimated amount of receivables that may not be collected. The allowance is based upon an assessment of customer creditworthiness, historical payment experience, the age of outstanding receivables, judgment, and other applicable factors.

 

A contract asset is a right to consideration that is conditional upon factors other than the passage of time. Contract assets are presented in “current and other assets” in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets and primarily relate to unbilled amounts on fixed-price contracts utilizing the output method of revenue recognition. The Company’s contract assets and liabilities are reported at the end of each reporting period. The difference between the opening and closing balances of the contract assets and deferred revenue primarily results from the timing difference between performance obligations and the customer’s payment. The Company receives payments from customers based on the terms established in their contracts, which may vary generally by contract type.

 

The Company’s contract assets and liabilities are reported in a net position on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period. The difference between the opening and closing balances of the contract assets and “deferred revenue” primarily results from the timing difference between performance obligations and the customer’s payment. The Company receives payments from customers based on the terms established in their contracts, which may vary generally by contract type.

 

The Company sells hardware and software products on both a stand-alone basis without any services and as a solution bundled with services. When the Company provides a combination of hardware and software products with the provision of services, the Company separately identifies its performance obligations under the contract and the hardware and/or software products or services that will be provided. The total transaction price for an arrangement with multiple performance obligations is allocated at contract inception to each performance obligation in proportion to the stand-alone selling price of the hardware or software. The selling price is the price at which the Company would sell a promised good or service separately to a customer. The Company estimates the price based on observable inputs, including direct labor hours and allocatable costs, or uses observable stand-alone prices when they are available. The Company’s professional services include the design and implementation of a wide range of IT products and services. Such services are typically provided by us or third-party subcontractor vendors on a stand-alone basis.

 

Subscription Revenue

 

The Company also generates subscription revenue from monthly premium subscription services from sales of its ManyCam software. Subscription revenues are presented net of refunds, credits, and known and estimated credit card chargebacks. During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, subscriptions were offered in durations of twelve-month and twenty-four-month terms. All subscription fees, however, are paid by credit card at the origination of the subscription regardless of the term of the subscription. Revenues from multi-month subscriptions are recognized on a straight-line basis over the period where the service is offered to the customer, indicated by length of the subscription term purchased. The unearned portion of subscription revenue is presented as deferred revenue in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

 

Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets include intellectual property either owned by the Company or to which the Company has a license. Intangible assets acquired in a business combination are recognized at fair value using generally accepted valuation methods deemed appropriate for the type of intangible asset acquired. The Company’s intangible assets include patents, internally developed software, intellectual property (e.g., trade names, trademarks and URLs) and subscriber relationships/customer lists.

 

7

 

 

The Company’s intangible assets represent definite lived intangible assets, which are being amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives as follows:

 

Patents   20 years
Trade names, trademarks, product names, URLs   5-10 years
Internally developed software   3-7 years
Non-compete agreements   3 years
Subscriber/customer relationships   3-12 years
Order Backlog   1 year

 

The Company reviews intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets might not be recoverable. Factors that the Company considers in deciding when to perform an impairment review include significant underperformance of the business in relation to expectations, significant negative industry or economic trends, and significant changes or planned changes in the use of the assets. If an impairment review is performed to evaluate a long-lived asset for recoverability, the Company compares forecasts of undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the long-lived asset to its carrying value. An impairment loss would be recognized when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of an asset are less than its carrying amount. The impairment loss would be based on the excess of the carrying value of the impaired asset over its fair value, determined based on discounted cash flows. No impairments were recorded on intangible assets as no impairment indicators were noted for the periods presented in these condensed consolidated financial statements. 

 

The fair values of acquired intangible assets are determined based on estimates and assumptions that are deemed reasonable by the Company. Significant assumptions include the discount rates and certain assumptions that form the basis of the forecasted results of the acquired business, including EBITDA, revenue, revenue growth rates, royalty rates and technology obsolescence rates. These assumptions are forward looking and could be affected by future economic and market conditions. The Company engages third-party valuation specialists who review the Company’s critical assumptions and calculations of the fair value of acquired intangible assets in connection with significant acquisitions.

 

Goodwill

 

Goodwill is recorded when the purchase price paid for an acquisition exceeds the estimated fair value of the net identified tangible and intangible assets acquired. The Company evaluates its goodwill for impairment in accordance with ASC Topic 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other, by assessing qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not (that is, a likelihood of more than 50 percent) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. The Company performs the quantitative goodwill impairment test, if, after assessing the totality of events or circumstances such as those described in paragraph ASC 350-20-35-3C(a) through (g), the Company determines that it was more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. An impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeded the reporting unit’s fair value, limited to the total amount of goodwill related to the reporting unit.

 

The Company tests the recorded amount of goodwill for impairment on an annual basis on December 31 of each fiscal year or more frequently if there are indicators that the fair value of the goodwill exceeds its carrying amount. The Company has one reporting unit.

 

Leases

 

The Company determines if an arrangement is, or contains, a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, operating lease liabilities, current and operating lease liabilities, noncurrent in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent its obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date (or acquisition date) based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the transition date and subsequent lease commencement dates in determining the present value of lease payments. This is the rate the Company would have to pay if borrowing on a collateralized basis over a similar term to each lease. The Company’s lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments made under operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

8

 

 

Property and equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of those assets, as follows:

 

Computers and equipment   5 years
Website development   3 years
Furniture and fixtures   7 years

 

Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.

 

Property and equipment is evaluated for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of the assets might not be recoverable. In evaluating an asset for recoverability, the Company estimates the future cash flow expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. If the expected future undiscounted cash flow is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss, equal to the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the asset, is recognized. No impairment losses were recorded on property and equipment for the periods presented in these condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

Fair value measurements affect the Company’s accounting for certain of its financial assets. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and is measured according to a hierarchy that includes:

 

  Level 1: Observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets.

 

  Level 2: Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 2 assets and liabilities include debt securities with quoted market prices that are traded less frequently than exchange-traded instruments. This category includes U.S. government agency-backed debt securities and corporate-debt securities.

 

  Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data.

 

In connection with the Acquisition, the Company initially recognized a non-current liability of $704,000 for the Earn-Out (as defined below). The Earn-Out Liability (as defined below) is classified as a Level 3 measurement for which fair value is derived from inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. The fair value of the Earn-Out Liability is estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation model that utilizes key assumptions including forecasted revenues and volatilities of the underlying financial metrics during the Earn-Out period. The Company assessed the fair value of the Earn-Out Liability at December 31, 2025 and re-measured the fair value by adjusting this amount (as permitted during the measurement period) to zero. Any subsequent changes in the estimated fair value of the liability are reflected in selling, general and administrative expenses until the liability is settled.

 

Concentration of Credit

 

As of June 30, 2026, two of the Company’s customers represented receivable balances more than 10% of the total accounts receivable balance. These two customers represented 40% and 14%, respectively, of the total accounts receivable balance for the six months ended June 30, 2026. For the year end December 31, 2025, two customers represented 24% and 15%, respectively, of the total accounts receivable. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, Newtek (defined in Note 3 below), a related party, and its affiliates represented 28% and 29%, and 33% and 33% of total revenue, respectively.

3. The Acquisition

 

On January 2, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), the Company completed the acquisition of Newtek Technology Solutions, Inc., a New York corporation (“NTS”), pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Acquisition Agreement”), dated August 11, 2024, by and among the Company, PALT Merger Sub 1, Inc., a New York corporation and a direct and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“First Merger Sub”), PALT Merger Sub 2, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Second Merger Sub”), NTS and NewtekOne, Inc., a Maryland corporation and the sole stockholder of NTS (“Newtek”). Pursuant to the terms of the Acquisition Agreement, on the Closing Date: (i) NTS merged with and into First Merger Sub, with NTS continuing as the surviving entity (the “Interim Surviving Entity” and such merger, the “First Step Merger”), and (ii) immediately following the consummation of the First Step Merger, the Interim Surviving Entity merged with and into Second Merger Sub (the “Second Step Merger” and, together with the First Step Merger, the “Acquisition”), with the Second Merger Sub surviving as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Following the closing of the Acquisition (the “Acquisition Closing”), the Company changed its name from “Paltalk, Inc.” to “Intelligent Protection Management Corp.”

 

The aggregate consideration delivered by the Company to Newtek at the Acquisition Closing consisted of (i) $4,000,000 in cash (as adjusted pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement, the “Acquisition Closing Cash Consideration”) and (ii) 4,000,000 shares of the Company’s Series A Non-Voting Common Equivalent Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock” and such shares issued at the Acquisition Closing, the “Acquisition Closing Stock Consideration” and together with the Acquisition Closing Cash Consideration, the “Acquisition Closing Consideration”). Each share of Series A Preferred Stock will automatically convert into one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (subject to certain customary anti-dilution adjustments), upon the occurrence of certain qualifying transfers by Newtek to third parties. In connection with the Acquisition, the Company incurred professional fees of $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, which amounts are included in “general and administrative expenses” in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

 

The aggregate purchase price delivered by the Company to Newtek was $12,904,000, which consisted of (i) $4,000,000 in cash and (ii) 4,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, which had a fair value of $8,200,000 on the Closing Date. Newtek is also entitled to earnout payments under certain circumstances of up to $5,000,000 (the “Earn-Out” or “Earn-Out Liability”) based on the Company’s achievement of certain cumulative average adjusted EBITDA thresholds for the 2025 and 2026 fiscal years, which had a fair value of $704,000 on the Closing Date. The Company financed the cash portion of the purchase price using existing cash on hand.

 

The Earn-Out may be paid, in the Company’s sole discretion, in cash, in shares of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Acquisition Earn-Out Stock Consideration”) or in a combination thereof. Pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement, to the extent that all or a portion of the Acquisition Earn-Out Amount is paid in shares of Series A Preferred Stock, the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be issued to Newtek will be calculated based on the average of the daily volume weighted average prices of the Company’s common stock during each trading day during a 60 calendar-day period ending on December 31, 2026; provided, that in no event shall such price be less than $1.00.

 

Pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement, if the issuance of the Acquisition Earn-Out Stock Consideration would cause Newtek’s “total equity” (as calculated under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHCA”), and as implemented and interpreted by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) in the Company to exceed one-third of the Company’s total equity (the “Total Equity Cap”), then the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock issuable as Acquisition Earn-Out Stock Consideration will be adjusted so that the Company will issue to Newtek the maximum number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock that would not cause Newtek’s total equity to exceed the Total Equity Cap, with a corresponding increase to the Acquisition Earn-Out Amount paid in cash.

 

The Acquisition was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their fair values as of the Closing Date. The fair values of intangible assets were based on valuations using various income approaches and methods, such as the multi-period excess earnings method, relief from royalty method, etc., which require the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including estimating future cash flows and developing appropriate discount rates. The excess of the purchase price over the tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets and assumed liabilities was recorded as goodwill. The results of NTS have been included in the Company’s single-segment business.

The fair value of all the acquired identifiable assets and liabilities summarized below were based on preliminary valuations and were updated as the Company obtained additional information during the acquisition measurement period, which ended on January 2, 2026. The purchase price allocation as of the Closing Date and then re-forecasted as of December 31, 2025 was as follows:

 

    At

Other assets     998,228       --       998,228  
Total assets acquired     13,523,302       257,293 (1)      13,780,595

Total identifiable net assets acquired     7,387,499       257,293 (1)      7,644,792  
Total purchase price: (includes $4,000,000 of cash, 4,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, which had a fair value of $8,200,000 and $704,000 of contingent consideration at the closing and $4,000,000 of cash, 4,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, which had a fair value of $8,200,000 and $0 of contingent consideration at December 31, 2025, respectively)     12,904,000       (704,000 )(2)      12,200,000  
Goodwill   $ 5,516,501     $ (961,293 )   $ 4,555,208  

 

(1) Reflects an adjustment of $257,293 related to valuation of accounts receivable on the Closing Date.

 

(2) Reflects an adjustment of $704,000 related to the re-measurement of the fair value of the related contingent consideration (earnout) liability

 

The preliminary purchase price allocation resulted in goodwill of $5,516,501 ($4,555,208 as of December 31, 2025) and will be deductible for income tax purposes. The resulting amount of goodwill is attributed to expected synergies from cross-sale opportunities and future growth. Intangible assets of $7,910,000 include customer relationships of $5,275,000, order backlog of $438,000, and trademarks and trade names of $2,197,000, which are being amortized on a straight-line basis, over weighted-average useful lives of 8 years1 year, and 8 years, respectively.

 

After the Acquisition Closing, and in the normal course of business, certain amounts were due to the Company by Newtek and its affiliates. For the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, sales to Newtek and its affiliates totaled $1.8 million and $1.9 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, sales to Newtek and its affiliates totaled $3.8 million and $3.7 million, respectively.

 

In connection with the Acquisition, the Company entered into a referral arrangement with Newtek pursuant to which Newtek agreed to refer potential clients to the Company for a fee. The referral arrangement with Newtek is terminable by either the Company or Newtek at any time. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company incurred $100,365 and $225,717, respectively, of expense in connection with the referral arrangement. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company incurred $79,521 and $155,704, respectively, of expense in connection with the referral arrangement. These amounts are included in the “sales, marketing and product development expenses” in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.

6. The Divestiture

 

On the Closing Date and prior to the Acquisition Closing, the Company completed the sale to Meteor Mobile Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Meteor Mobile”), of its telecommunications services provider, “Vumber”, as well as its “Paltalk” and “Camfrog” applications and certain assets and liabilities related to such services provider and applications (the “Transferred Assets,” and such sale, the “Divestiture,” and, together with the Acquisition, the “Transactions”) pursuant to that certain Asset Purchase Agreement, dated November 7, 2024, by and among the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries Paltalk Holdings, Inc., Paltalk Software, Inc., Camshare, Inc., A.V.M. Software, Inc. and Vumber, LLC (collectively, the “Sellers”), and Meteor Mobile. As a result of the Divestiture, the Company is no longer engaged in the business of providing video-based, live streaming, virtual camera and telecommunications software to consumers, as and to the extent such businesses were previously conducted by the Company pursuant to the “Vumber,” “Paltalk” and “Camfrog” applications (the “Business”). In addition, prior to the Acquisition Closing, the Company ceased all operations of its “Tinychat” service and application. The consideration delivered by Meteor Mobile to the Company at the closing of the Divestiture consisted of (i) $1,350,000 in cash and (ii) the assumption of all of the liabilities of the Sellers arising out of, or relating to, the Business or the Transferred Assets, other than certain excluded liabilities (the “Divestiture Closing Consideration”).

 

12

 

 

In addition to the Divestiture Closing Consideration, the Company is entitled to receive, with respect to each Earn-Out Period, as defined and described below, certain payments in cash based on the cash revenue, net of any refunds, received by Meteor Mobile that is attributable to the Business (such cash revenue, the “Legacy Business Revenue”), as follows:

 

from the six-month period beginning on July 1, 2025 and ending on December 31, 2025 (“Earn-Out Period 1”), an amount equal to (i) for any Legacy Business Revenue greater than or equal to $3,500,000 and less than $4,250,000, the amount of such Legacy Business Revenue multiplied by 0.30 plus (ii) for any Legacy Business Revenue greater than or equal to $4,250,000, the amount of such Legacy Business Revenue in excess of $4,250,000 multiplied by 0.40; and

 

from each of the twelve-month period beginning on January 1, 2026 and ending on December 31, 2026 (“Earn-Out Period 2”), the twelve-month period beginning on January 1, 2027 and ending on December 31, 2027 (“Earn-Out Period 3”), and the twelve-month period beginning on January 1, 2028 and ending on December 31, 2028 (“Earn-Out Period 4” and collectively with Earn-Out Period 1, Earn-Out Period 2 and Earn-Out Period 3, the “Earn-Out Periods”), an amount equal to (i) for any Legacy Business Revenue greater than or equal to $7,000,000 and less than $8,500,000, the amount of such Legacy Business Revenue multiplied by 0.30 plus (ii) for any Legacy Business Revenue greater than or equal to $8,500,000, the amount of such Legacy Business Revenue in excess of $8,500,000 multiplied by 0.40 (the aggregate amount, if any, earned during the Earn-Out Periods, the “Divestiture Earn-Out Amount”).

 

In the event of a change of control (as defined in the Divestiture Agreement) of Meteor Mobile during any of the Earn-Out Periods, the Company is entitled to receive an acceleration payment in cash, net of any Divestiture Earn-Out Amounts previously paid to us (the “Acceleration Payment”). If any of the Transferred Assets are sold independently from the other assets of Meteor Mobile, the Company will be entitled to (i) 50% of the aggregate consideration paid to Meteor Mobile for the Transferred Assets minus (ii) the aggregate amount of any Divestiture Earn-Out Amounts received by the Sellers by the date of the change of control, minus (iii) the aggregate amount of any Acceleration Payments previously paid through such date. If any of the Transferred Assets are sold contemporaneously with other assets of Meteor Mobile, the Company is entitled to (x) the aggregate consideration paid to Meteor Mobile for the Transferred Assets multiplied by the ratio of the trailing 12-month EBITDA of the Transferred Assets sold and the EBITDA of all assets sold minus (y) the aggregate amount of any Divestiture Earn-Out Amounts received by the Sellers by the date of the change of control, minus (z) the aggregate amount of any Acceleration Payments previously paid through such date. The minimum Acceleration Payment for the sale of “Paltalk,” “Camfrog” and “Vumber” is $1,650,000, $450,000 and $300,000, respectively, and the Acceleration Payments payable to the Company are capped at $5,000,000 in the aggregate.

 

The amount earned in Earn-Out Period 1 was $31,263 and is included in “other income” in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2025.

 

7. Accrued Expenses and Other Current Liabilities

 

Accrued expenses and other current liabilities consisted of the following for the periods presented:

 

    June 30,     December 31,  
    2026     2025  
    (unaudited)        
Compensation, benefits and payroll taxes   $ 159,012     $ 325,113  
Other accrued expenses     282,021       652,149  
Sales tax     135,404       49,449  
Amounts due to Meteor Mobile     7,368       5,022  
Total accrued expenses and other current liabilities   $ 583,805     $ 1,031,733  

 

13

 

 

8. Income Taxes

 

The Company’s provision for income taxes consists of federal, foreign, and state taxes, as applicable, in amounts necessary to align the Company’s year-to-date tax provision with the effective rate that it expects to achieve for the full year. Each quarter the Company updates its estimate of the annual effective tax rate and records cumulative adjustments as necessary.

 

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $103,025 and $127,615, respectively. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was 6.0% which differs from the statutory rate of 21% primarily due to limited tax benefit being provided on current pre-tax losses due to the Company’s valuation allowance position, differences in foreign tax rates from the U.S. statutory rate of 21%, and state and local taxes. The Company continues to conclude that its U.S. deferred tax assets are not realizable on a more-likely-than-not basis and maintains a full valuation allowance against such deferred tax assets.

 

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded an income tax provision of $72,007 and an income tax benefit of $1,988,058, respectively, which included a discrete tax benefit of $1,665,189 recorded during the three month period ended March 31, 2025, primarily related to a partial reversal of its valuation allowance, as the Acquisition created a source of future taxable income allowing for the recognition of certain deferred tax assets. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was 89.2%, which differs from the statutory rate of 21% primarily due to a reduction in the Company’s valuation allowance. The Company continues to conclude that its U.S. deferred tax assets are not realizable on a more-likely-than-not basis and maintains a full valuation allowance against such deferred tax assets. 

 

9. Stockholders’ Equity

 

Intelligent Protection Management Corp. 2025 Long-Term Incentive Plan

 

On May 8, 2025, at the Company’s 2025 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2025 Annual Meeting”), the Company’s stockholders approved the Intelligent Protection Management Corp. 2025 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2025 LTIP”). As a result, the 2025 LTIP became effective on May 8, 2025. Concurrently with the adoption of the 2025 LTIP, the 2016 Plan (defined below) was terminated as to future awards. The 2025 LTIP provides for the granting of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance awards, dividend equivalent rights and other awards that may be granted singly, in combination, or in tandem, and which may be paid in cash, shares of common stock, other consideration, or any combination thereof. Subject to certain adjustments, the maximum aggregate number of shares of common stock that may be delivered pursuant to awards under the 2025 LTIP is 1,200,000 shares, plus any Prior Plan Awards (as defined in the 2025 LTIP).

 

The Intelligent Protection Management Corp. Amended and Restated 2011 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2011 Plan”) was terminated as to future awards on May 16, 2016. As of June 30, 2026, there were no shares of the Company’s common stock issuable pursuant to outstanding options awarded under the 2011 Plan. The Intelligent Protection Management Corp. 2016 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”) was terminated as to future awards on May 8, 2025. As of June 30, 2026, a total of 682,550 shares of the Company’s common stock may be issued pursuant to outstanding options awarded under the 2016 Plan.

 

As of June 30, 2026, a total of 878,655 shares of the Company’s common stock were available for issuance under the 2025 LTIP.

 

Stock Options

 

The following table summarizes the assumptions used in the Black-Scholes pricing model to estimate the fair value of the options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2026:

 

Expected volatility     118.1 %
Expected life of option (in years)     5.26.2  
Risk free interest rate     4.07 %
Expected dividend yield     0.0 %

 

14

 

 

The expected life of the options is the period of time over which employees and non-employees are expected to hold their options prior to exercise. The expected life of options has been determined using the “simplified” method as prescribed by Staff Accounting Bulletin 110, which uses the midpoint between the vesting date and the end of the contractual term. The volatility of the Company’s common stock is calculated using the Company’s historical volatilities beginning at the grant date and going back for a period of time equal to the expected life of the award. The Company estimates potential forfeitures of stock awards and adjusts recorded stock-based compensation expense accordingly. The Company estimates pre-vesting forfeitures primarily based on the Company’s historical experience and is adjusted to reflect actual forfeitures as the stock-based awards vest.

 

The following table summarizes stock option activity during the six months ended June 30, 2026:

 

          Weighted  
          Average  
    Number of     Exercise  
    Options     Price  
Stock Options:            
Outstanding at January 1, 2026     687,895     $ 2.41  
Granted during the period     316,000       1.62  
Cancelled/Forfeited, during the period     --       --  
Expired, during the period     (5,345 )     5.00  
Outstanding at June 30, 2026     998,550     $ 2.15  
Exercisable at June 30, 2026     627,550     $ 2.41  

 

At June 30, 2026, there was $511,773 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to stock options, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 3.3 years.

 

On June 30, 2026, the aggregate intrinsic value of stock options that were outstanding and exercisable was $54,840 and $19,320, respectively. On June 30, 2025, the aggregate intrinsic value of stock options that were outstanding and exercisable was $30,270 and $29,070, respectively. The intrinsic value of stock options is calculated based on the exercise price of the underlying awards and the fair value of such awards as of the period-end date.

  

During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company granted stock options to members of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) to purchase an aggregate of 40,000 shares of common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $1.62 per share. The stock options vest in four equal quarterly installments on the last day of each calendar quarter in 2026 and have a term of ten years. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company also granted options to employees to purchase an aggregate of 276,000 shares of common stock. These options vest in equal tranches over a four-year period. The stock options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2026 have a term of ten years, an exercise price of $1.62 per share and a weighted average fair value of $1.41 per share, or $445,439 in the aggregate. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company granted 275,000 stock options to members of the Board and to management. These options in the aggregate had an exercise price of $1.98 per share, a weighted average fair value of $1.79 per share and an aggregate fair value of $545,550. Stock-based compensation expense for the Company’s stock options for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, totaled $41,572 and $77,760, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense for the Company’s stock options for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, totaled $65,128 and $245,389, respectively, and is included in “general and administrative expenses” in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

Series A Preferred Stock

 

On December 30, 2024, the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware the Certificate of Designations designating the Series A Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designations”), and establishing the preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends and other distributions, qualifications, or terms or conditions of redemption of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock. The total number of authorized shares of Series A Preferred Stock is 9,000,000 shares. On January 2, 2025, as partial consideration for the Acquisition, the Company issued 4,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock.

 

Stock Repurchase Plan

 

On May 8, 2025, the Board approved a stock repurchase plan for up to $400,000 of the Company’s outstanding common stock (the “Stock Repurchase Plan”), which expired on the one-year anniversary of such date. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, 50,000 shares of common stock were repurchased by the Company pursuant to the Stock Repurchase Plan at an average price of $1.67 per share, or an aggregate of $83,491, all of which repurchases occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2026.

Treasury Shares

 

As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had 843,221 and 793,221 shares of its common stock, respectively, classified as treasury shares on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

 

10. Net Income (Loss) Per Share

 

Basic earnings and net (loss) income per share are computed by dividing the net (loss) income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period as defined by ASC Topic 260, Earnings Per Share. The Company applies the multiple-class method in calculating earnings per share. Earnings and losses are shared pro-rata between the multiple classes of shares. The Company has two classes of stock, Series A Preferred Stock and common stock, that the calculations for weighted-average number of shares and earnings per share by class are based on. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options (using the treasury stock method). To the extent stock options are antidilutive, they are excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, 1,001,037 and 845,136 of shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options, respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per share because their inclusion would be antidilutive.

11. Leases

 

The Company leases office space at 30 Jericho Executive Plaza in Jericho, New York from Jericho Executive Center LLC (“JEC”) under a lease that, as extended, expires on November 30, 2026. The Company’s monthly office rent payments under the lease are currently approximately $7,055 per month. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had no long-term leases that were classified as financing leases and did not have additional operating or financing leases that had not yet commenced.

 

In connection with the Acquisition, the Company assumed an operating lease with IO New Jersey One, LLC (“Iron Mountain”) for a data center that includes office space and equipment located in Edison, New Jersey. The lease with Iron Mountain automatically renewed on April 30, 2026 for a one-year term, and will automatically renew thereafter for additional terms of one year, unless either party provides the other party with written notice that it will not renew the lease within 90 days of the then-current term. The renewal options have not been included in the Company’s operating lease right-of-use asset and liability, as the Company is not reasonably certain to exercise such options as of June 30, 2026. The Company’s monthly rent payments under the lease are currently $12,391 per month.

 

16

 

 

In connection with the Acquisition, the Company also assumed an operating lease with Aligned Data Centers (Phoenix) PropCo, LLC (“ADC”) for a data center that includes office and storage space located in Phoenix, Arizona. During the first quarter of 2026, we amended our agreement with ADC to extend the lease through August 31, 2032. Since the lease extension agreement resulted in a lease term greater than twelve months, the Company recorded an operating lease right-of-use asset and liability on February 2, 2026 of $3,221,523, reflecting the extended term. The lease extension agreement modified the automatic renewal term from one year to two years, which has not been included in the Company’s operating lease right-of-use asset and liability, as the Company was not reasonably certain to exercise such options as of June 30, 2026. The Company’s monthly rent payments under the lease are currently $54,951 per month.

 

As of June 30, 2026, the Company had no long-term leases that were classified as financing leases and did not have additional operating or financing leases that had not yet commenced.

 

As of June 30, 2026, the Company had operating lease liabilities of approximately $4,210,330 (of which $564,980 is classified as short-term liabilities and $3,645,350 is classified as long-term liabilities) and operating lease right-of-use assets of approximately $4,149,953 all of which are included in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

 

Total rent expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 was $260,658 and $511,904, respectively, of which $11,775 and $23,550 was sublease income. Total rent expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 was $226,833 and $453,666, respectively, of which $8,350 and $9,850 was sublease income. Rent expense is recorded under “general and administrative expense and cost of revenue” in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

The following table summarizes the Company’s operating leases for the periods presented:

 

    Three Months Ended     Six Months Ended  
    June 30,     June 30,  
    2026     2025     2026     2025  
Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of operating lease liabilities:   $ 260,658     $ 227,128     $ 511,904     $ 455,679  
Weighted average assumptions:

Discount rate     6.66 %     4.70 %     6.66 %     4.70 %

 

As of June 30, 2026, future minimum payments under non-cancellable operating leases were as follows:

 

    Amount  
For the year ended December 31:      
2026   $ 443,720  
2027     764,028  
2028     806,192

12. Commitments and Contingencies

 

Cisco WebEx Patent Litigation

 

On July 23, 2021, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, Paltalk Holdings, Inc., filed a patent infringement lawsuit (the “Lawsuit”) against WebEx Communications, Inc., Cisco WebEx LLC and Cisco Systems, Inc. (collectively, “Cisco”), in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas (the “Trial Court”). The Company alleged that certain of Cisco’s products have infringed U.S. Patent No. 6,683,858, and that the Company was entitled to damages.

 

On August 29, 2024, the jury awarded the Company $65.7 million (the “Award”) in a jury verdict in connection with the Lawsuit. On October 8, 2024, an order granting a motion for final judgment (the “Final Judgment”) was entered into in the Trial Court in connection with the Lawsuit in favor of the Company in the amount of the Award and started the time for filing any post-trial motions or appeal.

 

In response to the Final Judgment, Cisco filed a motion for Judgment as a Matter of Law (“JMOL”) with the Trial Court. On August 27, 2025, the Trial Court denied Cisco’s JMOL as to validity and infringement. However, the Trial Court granted Cisco’s motion for a new trial with respect to damages. On October 29, 2025, the Trial Court ordered a hearing set for November 12, 2025 to consider the Company’s motion for reconsideration; however, on November 11, 2025, the Trial Court denied the Company’s motion.

 

Cisco also appealed the Trial Court judgment of validity and infringement (the “Appeal”) to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (the “Appeals Court”). Each party is expected to complete and submit its briefs with respect to the Appeal during the second half of 2026. Upon submission of such briefs, the Appeals Court will then decide whether the parties will appear to argue the Appeal or to render a decision on the Appeal based on the briefs submitted by each party. 

 

The exact amount of the Award proceeds to be received by the Company will be determined based on a number of factors and will reflect the deduction of significant litigation-related expenses, including legal fees. Consequently, the Company estimates that it would receive no more than one third of the gross proceeds in connection with the Award, which Award is subject to post-trial proceedings (including any potential appellate proceedings by Cisco).

 

Cisco ManyCam Litigation

 

On March 7, 2025, Cisco Systems, Inc. and Cisco Technology, Inc. filed a complaint against the Company in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, alleging that the Company’s ManyCam software has infringed U.S. Patent Nos. 8,830,293 and 8,941,708 and seeking damages and injunctive relief. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself against these claims. In October 2025, the Company filed an inter partes review (“IPR”) with the Patent Review Board to invalidate Cisco Patents 8,830,293 and 8,941,708. On February 24, 2026, the Patent Review Board denied the IPR related to Cisco Patent 8,941,708 and on April 1, 2026, the Patent Review Board also denied the IPR related to Cisco Patent 8,830,293.

 

The Company has not recorded any liability for this matter as it does not believe a loss is probable, and it cannot estimate any reasonable possible loss or range of possible loss. It is possible that an unfavorable resolution to this matter could have an adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. The Company incurred approximately $1.2 million in aggregate expense in defense of these claims ($0.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 and $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026).

 

18

 

 

Legal Proceedings

 

The Company may be included in legal proceedings, claims and assessments arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company evaluates the need for a reserve for specific legal matters based on the probability of an unfavorable outcome and the reasonability of an estimable loss. No reserve was deemed necessary as of June 30, 2026.

 

13. Related Party Transactions

 

Relationship

 

As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, Newtek beneficially owned approximately 30.6% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock or common-equivalent equity (on an as-converted and fully-diluted basis). Newtek is also a significant customer of the Company, and its Chairman is a member of the Board.

 

Deposit Accounts at Newtek Bank

 

The Company has a commercial banking relationship with Newtek Bank.  At June 30, 2026 the Company had $1,200,776 on deposit in commercial accounts with Newtek Bank, as well as a certificate of deposit in the amount of $1,056,293. At December 31, 2025, the certificate of deposit was classified as restricted cash as it was used to secure the credit agreement described below. The credit agreement matured on April 10, 2026, and therefore, at June 30, 2026, these amounts were no longer classified as restricted cash.

Accounts Payable, Accrued Expenses and other General and Administrative Expenses

 

The Company has a referral arrangement with Newtek whereby it pays commissions for referrals of customers services. Included in accounts payable and accrued expenses at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was $58,675 and $46,450, respectively, in connection with these payments. For the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company paid Newtek $100,365 and $79,521, respectively, in connection with these agreements. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company paid Newtek $225,717 and $155,704, respectively, in connection with these agreements. These amounts are unsecured, non-interest bearing, and due under normal trade terms.

 

As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, deferred revenue related to the Company’s arrangement with Newtek totaled approximately $55,000.

 

In addition, the Company subleased space to an affiliate of Newtek for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and received $10,275 and $20,550, respectively, which was offset against rent expense.

 

Concentration

 

Because Newtek is both a significant shareholder and a major customer, the Company has a concentration of revenue with this related party. The loss of this customer could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations.

 

Business Loan Agreement and Credit Agreement and Revolving Promissory Note

 

On April 10, 2025, the Company, Intelligent Protection LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“IPM LLC” and, together with the Company, the “Borrowers”), and Newtek Bank, National Association (“Newtek Bank”), a subsidiary of Newtek, entered into that certain business loan agreement and that certain credit agreement and revolving promissory note (together, the “Loan Agreements”), which provided for a secured revolving line of credit to the Borrowers in the maximum amount of $1,000,000 on the terms and conditions set forth in the Loan Agreements (the “Facility”). The obligations of the Borrowers under the Loan Agreements were secured by substantially all of the assets of the Borrowers.

 

The Facility matured on April 10, 2026. No amounts were drawn on the revolving line of credit during its term.

Overview

 

We provide a comprehensive range of IT-related services, including managed IT security services, secure private cloud hosting, managed backup and disaster recovery, professional services, procurement services, web hosting, and other related services including consulting and implementing technology solutions for large enterprise and commercial clients across the United States as well as small-and-medium sized businesses. We also offer and support our ManyCam software, which is a live streaming software and virtual camera that allows users to deliver professional live videos on streaming platforms, video conferencing apps and distance learning tools.

 

We have an over 20-year history of technology innovation and hold eight patents.

 

Our IT and Cloud-Based Solutions

 

We sell and provide a range of services across six core areas, each as further described below: (i) managed IT security services, (ii) secure private cloud hosting, (iii) managed backup and disaster recovery, (iv) professional services, (v) procurement services and (vi) web hosting.

 

1. Managed IT Security Services

 

Our managed IT security services provide clients with ongoing management and support of their IT systems and services under a subscription or contract-based model. Our managed IT security services include proactive monitoring, regular system maintenance, comprehensive cybersecurity management, data backup, and disaster recovery, as well as help desk support for users. Managed IT security services are intended to ensure that a client’s IT infrastructure and services remain operational, secure and optimized.

 

2. Secure Private Cloud Hosting

 

Our secure private cloud hosting offerings include a digital infrastructure which consists of dedicated and fully isolated cloud environments designed to deliver security, control and compliance for business-critical applications and client data.

 

We operate a secure private cloud from private suites in completely isolated areas that are leased within two Tier 3 data center facilities located in Phoenix, Arizona, and Edison, New Jersey (the “Data Centers”), pursuant to certain license agreements. As of June 30, 2026, the terms of the license agreements for the Data Centers located in Arizona and New Jersey extend through 2032 and 2027, respectively. Although we do not own or operate the Data Centers, we aim to use the high-level operations and standards provided by the Data Centers through our license agreements to provide our customers with secure and flexible cloud services. The Data Centers each conform to The Uptime Institute’s Tier 3 Certification, which is a globally recognized standard for validating critical data center infrastructure. The Tier 3 classification provides us with a degree of confidence that the Data Centers provide the necessary power, cooling, maintenance, and fault tolerance required for secure and reliable operations. Our critical infrastructure, hosted within the Data Centers, is designed to meet and exceed Tier 3 standards in all relevant categories. This allows us to deliver secure and compliant services to customers within heavily regulated industries, including financial services and healthcare, and other industries. Additionally, we incorporate a redundant, carrier-neutral network design for communications paths, along with multiple hosting locations for our services, which improve the availability and resilience of our cloud services.

 

21

 

 

We leverage state-of-the-art security measures, including data encryption, network segmentation, advanced firewalls, multi-factor authentication and continuous monitoring to safeguard against unauthorized access and cyber threats. We believe our secure private cloud hosting provides our clients with strong availability, data integrity and reliable performance, while meeting stringent compliance requirements. Our secure private cloud hosting solutions are backed by 24/7 support from our expert team, with the goal of delivering secure, flexible and resilient infrastructure tailored to each client’s unique business needs. We actively engage with third parties to enhance our secure private cloud offerings with artificial intelligence (“AI”) features and benefits.

 

3. Managed Backup and Disaster Recovery

 

Our managed backup and disaster recovery solutions provide comprehensive protection for customers’ critical data and IT infrastructure, which is intended to ensure business continuity and rapid recovery in the event of data loss, cyberattacks or system failures. We utilize advanced backup technologies with automated, regular data backups, off-site replication and secure storage to prevent data corruption or loss. Our disaster recovery solutions are designed to offer quick restoration of systems and data with minimal downtime, supported by flexible recovery plans tailored to meet customers’ specific needs. With continuous monitoring, end-to-end encryption, and expert support available 24/7, we aim to ensure that our customers’ data is secure, accessible and compliant with industry standards. Pricing for our managed backup and disaster recovery solutions is based upon the customer contract and depends on the amount of backup storage needed. Customers are typically charged set rates per the contract and are charged monthly based on usage.

 

4. Professional Services

 

Our professional services include the design and implementation of a wide range of IT products and services, such as cybersecurity, software planning, IT infrastructure, data center design and configuration, hybrid or cloud computing solutions, website development, developing or integrating systems and software, and IT cost management. In addition, we are planning on launching an AI Data Readiness solution in 2026 that we believe will improve the reliability, security, and outcome of adopting AI technologies by assessing, structuring, and securing business data in a safe and effective manner.

 

5. Procurement Services

 

We offer two types of procurement services to our customers. We can either: (i) obtain software and hardware products on behalf of our customers, in which case our vendors drop ship the products to our end customers, or (ii) obtain hardware or software on behalf of our customers and perform additional configuration and/or add additional inputs to the products before the products are shipped to our customers. In the instance where we sell hardware and software products as a solution bundled with services, we typically obtain the products or software from our vendors, add the additional inputs/configuration as detailed in the customer contract, and then ship the products to the end customer. For each type of procurement service, our customers have their own negotiated contract and payment terms. Procurement revenue can be uneven throughout the year as it is the result of our customers both replacing existing hardware as well as purchasing new hardware in connection with new projects, which projects are traditionally tied to customer budgets that are often higher early in the calendar year.

 

6. Web Hosting

 

Our web hosting services consist of several advanced security measures, including Secure Sockets Layer and Transport Layer Security (“SSL/TLS”) encryption, firewalls, distributed denial-of-service (“DDoS”) protection, malware scanning, and secure server configurations. Our web hosting services include features such as regular data backups, web application firewalls, strict access control policies and continuous monitoring and expert support, all of which are intended to ensure our customers’ compliance with industry standards and provide a reliable and secure environment for our customers’ online presence. Our web hosting services are designed to provide customer websites with an additional layer of protection from cyber attacks and threats.

 

Our ManyCam Software Product

 

In addition to our IT and cloud-based solutions, we offer and support our ManyCam software, which is a live streaming software and virtual camera that allows users to deliver professional live videos on streaming platforms, video conferencing apps and distance learning tools. The ManyCam software provides multiple camera feeds, backgrounds and effects while also enabling users to share presentations, spreadsheets and documents. We cross sell ManyCam as an offering for our new customers and seek to optimize our cross-selling efforts of ManyCam with our other technology solutions.

for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 revenue totaled $6.5 million and $12.8 million, respectively,  compared to $5.7 million and $11.2 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase of 13% and 14%, respectively, was primarily attributed to an increase in our managed IT services of 8% and 9%, respectively, compared to the prior year periods, as well as an increase in procurement revenue of 64% and 70%, respectively, compared to the prior year periods;

 

  net loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 totaled $1.4 million and $2.0 million, respectively,  compared to net loss of $1.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025;

Second Half 2026 Business Objectives

 

For the near term, our business objectives include:

 

  continuing the integration of our comprehensive portfolio of IT-related solutions and expanding functionality through strategic partnerships. We are collaborating with strategic third parties to integrate AI and predictive analytics capabilities into our platform, enabling customers to leverage AI-driven insights within existing data environments. In addition, our partnership with MASORI supports advanced AI and is designed to accelerate results that enhance automation and system integration capabilities, improving workflow efficiency and scalability. These partnerships are intended to strengthen our technology offerings and enhance customer value;

 

  undertaking an initiative to consolidate our accounting-based systems through the implementation of a third-party e-commerce integration system. This implementation is intended to support improved system integration, increased automation of financial processes, and enhanced consistency of financial data across our operations. We believe this initiative will contribute to more efficient financial management and support future growth initiatives;
     
  incorporating ManyCam as an offering for our new customers and seeking to optimize our cross-selling efforts with our other technology solutions;

 

  continuing to explore strategic opportunities, including, but not limited to, potential mergers or acquisitions of other assets or entities that are synergistic to our businesses; and

 

  continuing to defend our intellectual property.

 

Sources of Revenue

 

Our main sources of revenue are described below. As a result of the variability of contract and service type, some of the revenue we report in each period is deferred revenue from contracts we entered into during previous periods. This may make it difficult for us to quickly increase revenue through the entry into new contracts in any period, and a decline in new or renewed contracts in any one quarter will negatively affect our revenue in future quarters. As a result, revenue generated in prior quarters may not provide a reliable indication of future results.

 

Managed IT Security Services

 

Customers of our managed IT security services typically pay a recurring fee, often based on service-level agreements that define the specific services and performance metrics.

 

Secure Private Cloud Hosting

 

Our secure private cloud hosting offerings include a digital infrastructure which consists of dedicated and fully isolated cloud environments designed to deliver security, control and compliance for business-critical applications and client data. We operate a secure private cloud from private suites in completely isolated areas that are leased within two Tier 3 data center facilities located in Phoenix, Arizona and Edison, New Jersey (the “Data Centers”), pursuant to license agreements that extend until 2032 and 2027, respectively. Although we do not own or operate the Data Centers, we aim to use the high-level operations and standards provided by the Data Centers through our license agreements to provide our customers with secure and flexible cloud services. 

 

We leverage state-of-the-art security measures, including data encryption, network segmentation, advanced firewalls, multi-factor authentication and continuous monitoring to safeguard against unauthorized access and cyber threats. We believe our secure private cloud hosting provides our clients with strong availability, data integrity and reliable performance, while meeting stringent compliance requirements. Our secure private cloud hosting solutions are backed by 24/7 support from our expert team, with the goal of delivering secure, flexible and resilient infrastructure tailored to each client’s unique business needs. We actively engage with third parties to enhance our secure private cloud offerings with AI features and benefits. Revenue from such cloud services is recognized ratably over the period in which the cloud services are provided.

Pricing for our managed backup and disaster recovery solutions is based upon the customer contract and depends on the amount of backup storage needed. Customers are typically charged set rates per the contract and are charged monthly based on usage.

 

Professional Services

 

Revenue in connection with professional services is generally recognized upon achievement of milestones or on a straight line basis for all fixed fee arrangements.

 

Procurement Services

 

For each type of procurement service, our customers have their own negotiated contract and payment terms. When we provide a combination of hardware and software products with the provision of services, we will separately identify our performance obligations under the contract and the hardware and/or software products or services that will be provided. The total transaction price for an arrangement with multiple performance obligations is typically allocated at contract inception to each performance obligation in proportion to the stand-alone selling price of the hardware or software. The selling price is the price at which we would sell a promised good or service separately to a customer. We estimate the price based on observable inputs, including direct labor hours and allocable costs, or use observable stand-alone prices when they are available.

 

Web Hosting

 

Each of our customers has their own contract and payment terms with respect to our web hosting services. The duration of such contracts is typically between one and four years, although the term may vary based on the needs of each particular customer. Customers of our web hosting services are invoiced on a monthly basis and pay a monthly fee, with revenue recognized on a monthly basis.

 

Subscription Revenue

 

We also generate subscription revenue from monthly premium subscription services for our ManyCam software. Subscription revenues are presented net of refunds, credits and known and estimated credit card chargebacks. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, subscriptions were offered in durations of twelve-month and twenty-four-month terms. All subscription fees, however, are paid by credit card at the origination of the subscription regardless of the term of the subscription. Revenues from multi-month subscriptions are recognized on a straight-line basis over the period where the service is offered to the customer, indicated by length of the subscription term purchased. The unearned portion of subscription revenue is presented as deferred revenue in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

 

Costs and Expenses

 

Cost of revenue

 

Cost of revenue consists primarily of compensation and other employee-related costs for personnel engaged in data center and customer care functions, credit card processing fees, hosting fees, data center rent, bandwidth costs and, in the case of procurement revenue, the cost of the hardware and/or subscriptions. Cost of revenue also includes compensation and other employee-related costs for technical personnel, consultants and subcontracting costs.

 

Sales marketing and product development expense

 

Sales marketing and product development expense consists primarily of (i) advertising expenditures and compensation (including stock-based compensation) and other employee-related costs for personnel and consultants engaged in sales and sales support marketing and development functions and (ii) development of the technology of our applications, and consultant-related costs that are not capitalized for personnel engaged in the design, testing and enhancement of service offerings. Advertising and promotional spend includes online marketing, including fees paid to search engines and offline marketing, which primarily consists of partner-related payments to those who direct traffic to our brands.

 

25

 

 

General and administrative expense

 

General and administrative expense consists primarily of compensation (including non-cash stock-based compensation) and other employee-related costs for personnel engaged in executive management, finance, legal, tax and human resources and facilities costs and fees for other professional services and cost of insurance.

 

Depreciation and amortization expense

 

Depreciation and amortization expenses consist primarily of amortization of intangible assets as well as depreciation on property and equipment.

 

Litigation expenses

 

Litigation expenses relate to expenses incurred in our patent defense against Cisco Systems, Inc. and Cisco Technology, Inc. (the “Cisco ManyCam Litigation”).

 

Key Metrics

 

Our management relies on certain non-GAAP financial measures to manage and evaluate our business. The non-GAAP financial measures set forth below help us evaluate growth trends, establish budgets, measure the effectiveness of our advertising and marketing efforts and assess operational efficiencies. We also discuss net cash provided by operating activities under the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section below. Adjusted EBITDA is discussed below.

Adjusted EBITDA

 

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) adjusted to exclude interest (income) expense, net, other (income) expense, net, income tax (benefit) expense, depreciation and amortization expense, stock-based compensation expense, net loss from discontinued operations, impairment loss in connection with the Divestiture and litigation expenses relating to the Cisco ManyCam Litigation, as each are applicable to the periods presented.

 

We present Adjusted EBITDA because it is a key measure used by our management and Board of Directors (the “Board”) to understand and evaluate our core operating performance and trends, to develop short- and long-term operational plans and to allocate resources to expand our business. In particular, the exclusion of certain expenses in calculating Adjusted EBITDA can provide a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of the cash operating income generated by our business. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors and others to understand and evaluate our operating results, and it allows for a more meaningful comparison between our performance and that of competitors.

Limitations of Adjusted EBITDA

 

Our use of Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider this performance measure in isolation from or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Some of these limitations are that Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect, among other things: cash capital expenditures for assets underlying depreciation and amortization expense that may need to be replaced or for new capital expenditures; interest income, net; other expense, net; the potentially dilutive impact of stock-based compensation; the provision for income taxes; litigation expenses incurred in connection with the Cisco ManyCam Litigation; and net loss from discontinued operations. Other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently, which reduces its usefulness as a comparative measure.

 

Because of these limitations, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA alongside other financial performance measures, including various cash flow metrics, net income (loss) and our other GAAP results. The following table presents a reconciliation of net income (loss), the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, to Adjusted EBITDA for each of the periods indicated:

Items Affecting Comparability of Results of the Second Quarter

 

Revenue from Newtek and its affiliates was impacted by Newtek’s ongoing initiatives to reduce information technology spend. We partially offset this decline in revenue through growth in recurring revenue from customers who are not related parties, including the addition of new customer relationships and service contracts during the period. For the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, revenue from Newtek and its affiliates represented approximately 28% and 33% of total revenue, respectively.

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2026, we experienced supply chain constraints affecting the availability of memory, CPU and GPU components. These constraints extended product lead times compared to historical levels, resulting in delays between customer bookings and product shipments. As a result, a portion of booked orders during the quarter remained unrecognized as revenue pending fulfillment and delivery, which we expect to recognize in future quarters as the underlying products and services are shipped and installed. Deferred revenue was $4,469,109 as of June 30, 2026, which reflects amounts invoiced or collected for orders that had not yet been fulfilled. We are unable to predict with certainty when these supply chain conditions will normalize, and continued constraints affecting memory, CPU or GPU component availability could result in further delays in revenue recognition in future periods.

 

In addition, during the quarter, a significant customer order was delayed and fulfilled across two reporting periods due to supply chain constraints affecting both our vendor and distribution channel. These constraints altered the cost structure associated with fulfilling the order. The initial shipment, completed in the first quarter of 2026, was recognized at expected margins, while the subsequent shipment, completed during the second quarter, incurred higher component and freight costs, resulting in a loss on that portion of the order. As a consequence, the combined order resulted in a loss, which contributed to the increase in cost of revenue described below and negatively impacted our results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2026.

 

Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2025

 

Revenue

 

Total revenue increased by 13% to $6,462,542 for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from $5,722,599 for the three months ended June 30, 2025. This increase was driven by increased managed information technology revenue, attributed to both new customers as well as the expansion of services sold to existing customers, and an increase in procurement revenue related to sale of AI-related equipment to customers, partially offset by decreases in professional services revenue and subscription revenue.

The increase in revenue is attributed to an increase in managed information technology revenue of 8.4% compared to the prior year period, as well as an increase in procurement revenue of 64.0% compared to the prior year period. With respect to our managed information technology solutions, which consist of managed IT security services, managed backup and disaster recovery solutions and web hosting, revenue increased 8.4% compared to the prior year period. This increase was partially offset by a decrease of 5.5% in managed information technology revenue from Newtek in connection with its ongoing initiatives to reduce information technology spend. The increase in revenue was partially offset by a decrease in professional services revenue compared to the prior year of $325,760, or 47.3%, and a decrease in subscription revenue compared to the prior year of $29,139, or 10.5%. Our subscription revenue relates to the sales from our ManyCam software. The decrease in subscription revenue was primarily driven by increased competition in the virtual camera and streaming software space.

 

Costs and Expenses

 

Total costs and expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2026 increased by $1,122,615, or 16.4%, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025.

Cost of revenue

 

Our cost of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2026 increased by $934,166, or 32.7%, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025. This increase was primarily due to an increase in costs associated with procurement equipment of $1,050,058, managed services expenses of $49,262, offset by decreases in professional services expense of $147,951 and a decrease in cost of subscription revenue of $17,203. Supply chain disruption caused difficulty sourcing product at normalized cost which negatively impacted one of our larger customer transactions by $101,964.

Sales marketing and product development expense

 

Our sales marketing and product development expense for the three months ended June 30, 2026 decreased by $71,729, or 8.5%, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease in sales marketing and product development expense for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to a decrease in headcount and salary costs of $52,208 and marketing expenses of $39,316, offset by an increase in consulting expenses of $13,032 and commissions of $6,583.

 

General and administrative expense

 

Our general and administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 2026 increased by $73,284, or 3.0%, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in general and administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to an increase in legal, professional and accounting expenses of $131,277. Additionally, there was an increase in rent expense of $14,996 due to the extension of the lease agreement in Arizona. These increased expenses were offset by a decrease in insurance costs of $82,981, compared to prior year, which included some initial start-up costs. Overall headcount remained unchanged at 41 individuals.

The decrease was primarily a result of a decrease in the amount of principal we invested and at varying interest rates. In addition, the three months ended June 30, 2025 included other income of $63,750 related to the sale of a domain name that was not in use by the Company. 

 

Income Taxes

 

Our provision for income taxes consists of federal, foreign and state taxes, as applicable, in amounts necessary to align our year-to-date tax provision with the effective rate that we expect to achieve for the full year. For the three months ended June 30, 2026, we recorded an income tax benefit of $103,025 consisting primarily of foreign taxes. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, we recorded an income tax provision of $72,007.

The decrease in general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily due to insurance expense decreases of $132,457, a decrease in non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $180,263 and a decrease in legal and accounting fees of $76,935.

 

Non-Operating Income

 

The following table presents the components of non-operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and the six months ended June 30, 2025, the decrease between those periods, the percentage decrease between those periods and the percentage of total revenue that each represented for those periods:

Total non-operating income   $ 141,226     $ 234,070     $ (92,844 )     (39.7 )%     1.1 %     2.1 %

 

Non-operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $141,226, a decrease of $92,844, or 39.7%, as compared to non-operating income of $234,070 for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily a result of a decrease in the amount of principal we invested and at varying interest rates. Other income for the six months ended June 30, 2025 related to the sale of a domain name that we are not using.

 

Income Taxes

 

Our provision for income taxes consists of federal, foreign and state taxes, as applicable, in amounts necessary to align our year-to-date tax provision with the effective rate that we expect to achieve for the full year. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, we recorded an income tax benefit of $127,615, consisting primarily of foreign taxes. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, we recorded an income tax benefit of $1,988,058, which included a discrete tax benefit of $1,665,189, primarily related to a partial reversal of our valuation allowance, as the Acquisition created a source of future taxable income allowing for the recognition of certain deferred tax assets.

Currently, our primary source of liquidity is cash on hand. We believe that our cash and cash equivalents balance, and our expected cash flows from operations will be sufficient to meet all of our financial obligations for at least one year from the date these financial statements are issued. As of June 30, 2026, we had $7,485,151 of cash and cash equivalents. In addition, on June 18, 2026, our shelf registration statement on Form S-3 was declared effective by the SEC, pursuant to which we may offer up to $50,000,000 of common stock, preferred stock, warrants and/or units, from time to time, providing us with additional flexibility to access the capital markets if needed.

 

Additionally, we expect our long-term liquidity position will be sufficient to meet our long-term liquidity needs with cash flows from operations. However, in the event of changes in business conditions or other developments, including a sustained market deterioration, unanticipated regulatory developments, significant acquisitions, competitive pressures, or to the extent our liquidity needs prove to be greater than expected or cash generated from operations is less than anticipated, we may need additional liquidity. To the extent we elect to finance our long-term liquidity needs, we believe that the potential financing capital available to us in the future will be sufficient.

 

Our primary use of working capital is related to product development resources and investment in marketing initiatives to grow the business in order to maintain and create new services and features in applications for our clients and users. In the future, we may seek to grow our business by expending our capital resources to fund strategic acquisitions, investments and partnership opportunities.

 

Stock Repurchase Plan

 

On May 8, 2025, the Board approved a stock repurchase plan for up to $400,000 of our outstanding common stock (the “Stock Repurchase Plan”), which expired on the one-year anniversary of such date. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, we purchased 50,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the Stock Repurchase Plan at an average price of $1.67 per share, or an aggregate of $83,491, all of which occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2026.

 

NTS Acquisition

 

On January 2, 2025, we acquired Newtek Technology Solutions, Inc. (“NTS”) from NewtekOne, Inc., the sole stockholder of NTS (“Newtek”), through a two-step merger process (the “Acquisition”) pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger (the “Acquisition Agreement”). The aggregate consideration we delivered to Newtek at the closing of the Acquisition consisted of (i) $4,000,000 in cash and (ii) 4,000,000 shares of our Series A Non-Voting Common Equivalent Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”). In addition to the foregoing closing consideration, the Acquisition Agreement provides that Newtek is entitled to receive an amount up to $5,000,000 (the “Acquisition Earn-Out Amount”) based on our achievement of certain cumulative average adjusted EBITDA thresholds for the 2025 and 2026 fiscal years. The Acquisition Earn-Out Amount may be paid, in our sole discretion, in cash (the “Acquisition Earn-Out Cash Consideration”), in shares of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Acquisition Earn-Out Stock Consideration”) or in a combination thereof. Pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement, to the extent that all or a portion of the Acquisition Earn-Out Amount is paid in shares of Series A Preferred Stock, the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be issued to Newtek will be calculated based on the average of the daily volume weighted average prices of our common stock during each trading day during a 60 calendar-day period ending on December 31, 2026; provided, that in no event shall such price be less than $1.00.

 

Pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement, if the issuance of the Acquisition Earn-Out Stock Consideration would cause Newtek’s “total equity” (as calculated under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, and as implemented and interpreted by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) in us to exceed one-third of our total equity (the “Total Equity Cap”), then the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock issuable as Acquisition Earn-Out Stock Consideration will be adjusted so that we will issue to Newtek the maximum number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock that would not cause Newtek’s total equity to exceed the Total Equity Cap, with a corresponding increase to the Acquisition Earn-Out Cash Consideration.

The Divestiture

 

On January 2, 2025, we completed the sale to Meteor Mobile Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Meteor Mobile”) of our telecommunications services provider, “Vumber”, as well as our “Paltalk” and “Camfrog” applications and certain assets and liabilities related to such services provider and applications (the “Transferred Assets” and such sale, the “Divestiture” and the Divestiture and the Acquisition together, the “Transactions”) pursuant to that certain Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Divestiture Agreement”), by and among us, our wholly owned subsidiaries Paltalk Holdings, Inc., Paltalk Software, Inc., Camshare, Inc., A.V.M. Software, Inc., and Vumber, LLC (collectively, the “Sellers”), and Meteor Mobile. The consideration delivered by Meteor Mobile to us at the closing of the Divestiture consisted of (i) $1,350,000 in cash and (ii) the assumption of all of the liabilities of the Sellers arising out of, or relating to, the business of providing video-based, live streaming, virtual camera and telecommunications software to consumers, as and to the extent such businesses were previously conducted by us pursuant to the “Vumber,” “Paltalk” and “Camfrog” applications (the “Business”) or the Transferred Assets, other than certain excluded liabilities (the “Divestiture Closing Consideration”).

 

In addition to the Divestiture Closing Consideration, we are entitled to receive, with respect to each Earn-Out Period, as defined and described below, certain payments in cash based on the cash revenue, net of any refunds, received by Meteor Mobile that is attributable to the Business (such cash revenue, the “Legacy Business Revenue”), as follows:

 

  from the six-month period beginning on July 1, 2025 and ending on December 31, 2025 (“Earn-Out Period 1”), an amount equal to (i) for any Legacy Business Revenue greater than or equal to $3,500,000 and less than $4,250,000, the amount of such Legacy Business Revenue multiplied by 0.30 plus (ii) for any Legacy Business Revenue greater than or equal to $4,250,000, the amount of such Legacy Business Revenue in excess of $4,250,000 multiplied by 0.40; and

 

  from each of the twelve-month period beginning on January 1, 2026 and ending on December 31, 2026 (“Earn-Out Period 2”), the twelve-month period beginning on January 1, 2027 and ending on December 31, 2027 (“Earn-Out Period 3”), and the twelve-month period beginning on January 1, 2028 and ending on December 31, 2028 (“Earn-Out Period 4” and collectively with Earn-Out Period 1, Earn-Out Period 2 and Earn-Out Period 3, the “Earn-Out Periods”), an amount equal to (i) for any Legacy Business Revenue greater than or equal to $7,000,000 and less than $8,500,000, the amount of such Legacy Business Revenue multiplied by 0.30 plus (ii) for any Legacy Business Revenue greater than or equal to $8,500,000, the amount of such Legacy Business Revenue in excess of $8,500,000 multiplied by 0.40 (the aggregate amount, if any, earned during the Earn-Out Periods, the “Divestiture Earn-Out Amount”).

 

In the event of a change of control (as defined in the Divestiture Agreement) of Meteor Mobile during any of the Earn-Out Periods, we are entitled to receive an acceleration payment in cash, net of any Divestiture Earn-Out Amounts previously paid to us (the “Acceleration Payment”). If any of the Transferred Assets are sold independently from the other assets of Meteor Mobile, we will be entitled to (i) 50% of the aggregate consideration paid to Meteor Mobile for the Transferred Assets minus (ii) the aggregate amount of any Divestiture Earn-Out Amounts received by the Sellers by the date of the change of control, minus (iii) the aggregate amount of any Acceleration Payments previously paid through such date. If any of the Transferred Assets are sold contemporaneously with other assets of Meteor Mobile, we are entitled to (x) the aggregate consideration paid to Meteor Mobile for the Transferred Assets multiplied by the ratio of the trailing 12-month EBITDA of the Transferred Assets sold and the EBITDA of all assets sold minus (y) the aggregate amount of any Divestiture Earn-Out Amounts received by the Sellers by the date of the change of control, minus (z) the aggregate amount of any Acceleration Payments previously paid through such date. The minimum Acceleration Payment for the sale of “Paltalk,” “Camfrog” and “Vumber” is $1,650,000, $450,000 and $300,000, respectively, and the Acceleration Payments payable to us are capped at $5,000,000 in the aggregate.

 

The amount earned in Earn Out Period 1 was $31,263 and was included in other income in the consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Business Loan Agreement and Credit Agreement and Revolving Promissory Note

 

On April 10, 2025, we, Intelligent Protection LLC, our wholly owned subsidiary (“IPM LLC” and, together with the Company, the “Borrowers”), and Newtek Bank, National Association (“Newtek Bank”), a subsidiary of Newtek, entered into that certain business loan agreement and that certain credit agreement and revolving promissory note (together, the “Loan Agreements”), which provided for a secured revolving line of credit to the Borrowers in the maximum amount of $1,000,000 on the terms and conditions set forth in the Loan Agreements (the “Facility”). The obligations of the Borrowers under the Loan Agreements were secured by substantially all of the assets of the Borrowers.

 

The Facility matured on April 10, 2026. No amounts were drawn on the revolving line of credit during its term.

 

Operating Activities

 

Net cash used in operating activities was $786,730 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $856,105 for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Cash used in operations for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily used in conjunction with the procurement of product in connection with the increase in procurement revenue. The amount of cash provided by operations for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was primarily attributed to the change in the business activities of the Company following the Transactions compared to the six months ended June 30, 2026, specifically, the collection of accounts receivable (favorable by $0.2 million), the timing of payment of payables (favorable by $0.7 million), as well as amounts collected by the Company during the first quarter following the Divestiture due to Meteor Mobile and paid subsequent to quarter end of $0.4 million.

 

Investing Activities

 

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $78,689 and was used to purchase fixed assets for use in the business. Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $4,280,149 and related to the cash consideration paid by the Company to Newtek in connection with the Acquisition, as well as used to purchase fixed assets for use in the business.

 

Financing Activities

 

Net cash used in financing activities was $83,491 for the six months ended June 30, 2026, and was used to repurchase shares of our common stock pursuant to our Stock Repurchase Plan. Net cash provided by financing activities was $1,137,202 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, and was attributed to the $1,350,000 consideration received in connection with the Divestiture netted against the $212,798 used in connection with the Stock Repurchase Plan.

 

Contractual Obligations and Commitments

 

There have been no other material changes to our contractual obligations and commitments disclosed in the contractual obligations and commitments section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in the Form 10-K.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of June 30, 2026, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty. Therefore, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Actual results inevitably will differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the financial statements. Our critical accounting estimates have not significantly changed since December 31, 2025 and are disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Not applicable.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, our chief executive officer recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

 

Based on the evaluation as of June 30, 2026, our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit 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 our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarterly period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS 

 

Cisco WebEx Patent Litigation

 

On July 23, 2021, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, Paltalk Holdings, Inc., filed a patent infringement lawsuit (the “Lawsuit”) against WebEx Communications, Inc., Cisco WebEx LLC and Cisco Systems, Inc. (collectively, “Cisco”), in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas (the “Trial Court”). The Company alleged that certain of Cisco’s products have infringed U.S. Patent No. 6,683,858, and that the Company was entitled to damages.

 

On August 29, 2024, the jury awarded the Company $65.7 million (the “Award”) in a jury verdict in connection with the Lawsuit. On October 8, 2024, an order granting a motion for final judgment (the “Final Judgment”) was entered into in the Trial Court in connection with the Lawsuit in favor of the Company in the amount of the Award and started the time for filing any post-trial motions or appeal.

 

In response to the Final Judgment, Cisco filed a motion for Judgment as a Matter of Law (“JMOL”) with the Trial Court. On August 27, 2025, the Trial Court denied Cisco’s JMOL as to validity and infringement. However, the Trial Court granted Cisco’s motion for a new trial with respect to damages. On October 29, 2025, the Trial Court ordered a hearing set for November 12, 2025 to consider the Company’s motion for reconsideration; however, on November 11, 2025, the Trial Court denied the Company’s motion.

 

Cisco also appealed the Trial Court judgment of validity and infringement (the “Appeal”) to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (the “Appeals Court”). Each party is expected to complete and submit its briefs with respect to the Appeal during the second half of 2026. Upon submission of such briefs, the Appeals Court will then decide whether the parties will appear to argue the Appeal or to render a decision on the Appeal based on the briefs submitted by each party.

 

The exact amount of the Award proceeds to be received by the Company will be determined based on a number of factors and will reflect the deduction of significant litigation-related expenses, including legal fees. Consequently, the Company estimates that it would receive no more than one third of the gross proceeds in connection with the Award, which Award is subject to post-trial proceedings (including any potential appellate proceedings by Cisco).

 

Cisco ManyCam Litigation

 

On March 7, 2025, Cisco Systems, Inc. and Cisco Technology, Inc. filed a complaint against the Company in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, alleging that the Company’s ManyCam software has infringed U.S. Patent Nos. 8,830,293 and 8,941,708 and seeking damages and injunctive relief. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself against these claims. In October 2025, the Company filed an inter partes review (“IPR”) with the Patent Review Board to invalidate Cisco Patents 8,830,293 and 8,941,708. On February 24, 2026, the Patent Review Board denied the IPR related to Cisco Patent 8,941,708 and on April 1, 2026, the Patent Review Board also denied the IPR related to Cisco Patent 8,830,293.

 

The Company has not recorded any liability for this matter as it does not believe a loss is probable, and it cannot estimate any reasonable possible loss or range of possible loss. It is possible that an unfavorable resolution to this matter could have an adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. The Company incurred approximately $1.2 million in aggregate expense in defense of these claims ($0.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 and $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026).

Legal Proceedings

 

To our knowledge, other than as described above, there are no material pending legal proceedings to which we are a party or of which any of our property is the subject.

 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

 

Except as set forth below, there were no material changes to the Risk Factors disclosed in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Form 10-K. The risk factor below supplements the risk factors disclosed in the Form 10-K. For more information concerning our other risk factors, please see “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Form 10-K.

 

Supply chain constraints in connection with our procurement services have in the past and may in the future delay revenue recognition, increase our costs and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

As part of our procurement services offering, we obtain hardware and software products, including servers and other equipment incorporating memory, CPU and GPU components, on behalf of our customers. Depending on the terms of the applicable customer arrangement, we may act as an agent, pursuant to which our vendors drop ship products directly to our customers. Under this type of arrangement, we do not take control of the underlying products, and we recognize procurement revenue on a net basis when the products are shipped. With respect to larger or project-based arrangements, including sales of AI-related equipment, we may act as principal, pursuant to which we obtain the underlying components. Under this type of arrangement, we are primarily responsible for fulfilling the customer’s order and bear inventory and fulfillment risk until control of the product transfers to the customer, at which point we recognize revenue on a gross basis.

 

We rely on third-party suppliers and distribution channels for the memory, CPU and GPU components incorporated into the hardware we procure and, in certain cases, configure for our customers, and we do not control the availability, pricing or timing of delivery of these components. We have experienced, and may in the future experience, supply shortages, price increases and longer lead times affecting these components. Supply chain constraints may be driven by factors such as industry-wide allocation constraints, manufacturing capacity limitations, logistics and freight constraints, inflation, geopolitical tensions, trade disputes, tariffs, natural disasters, or changes in our suppliers’ financial or business condition.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2026, supply chain constraints extended our product lead times compared to historical levels, resulting in delays between customer bookings and product shipments. As a result of these delays, a portion of our booked orders remained unrecognized as revenue pending fulfillment and delivery as of June 30, 2026. We cannot predict with certainty when these conditions will normalize, and continued constraints could result in further delays in revenue recognition, causing our reported revenue and results of operations to fluctuate and not accurately reflect underlying customer demand. These disruptions have also altered, and may in the future alter, the cost structure associated with fulfilling customer orders, which has resulted, and may in the future result, in losses on orders originally booked at expected margins. We cannot assure you that similar cost increases will not recur, particularly if constraints persist, worsen, or are replaced by new sources of disruption. If we are unable to effectively manage these constraints and related cost pressures, our customers cancel orders and seek products from our competitors and our gross margins, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.
