NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

June 30, 2024

NOTE 1 — Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements of Socket Mobile, Inc. (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals considered necessary for fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future period. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

NOTE 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the financial statements.

Cash Equivalents and Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity date of 90 days or less at date of purchase to be cash equivalents. In response to volatility in the financial markets in March 2023, the Company entered into an Insured Cash Sweep (“ICS”) Deposit Placement Agreement with IntraFi Network LLC facilitated by its bank, Bridge Bank - a division of Western Alliance Bank. The ICS program provides the Company’s demand or savings products with access to unlimited FDIC insurance, which helps the Company to keep the full amount of the deposit on its balance sheet and provides additional security during times of market uncertainty. As of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, all of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents consisted of amounts held in demand deposit accounts in banks. The Company has never experienced any losses in such accounts.

The carrying value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and debt approximate fair value due to the relatively short period of time to maturity.

Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue

With the adoption of ASC 606 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” in 2017, the Company recognizes revenue on sales to distributors when shipping of product is completed and title transfers to distributor, less a reserve for estimated product returns (sales and cost of sales). The reserves are based on estimates of future returns calculated from actual return history, primarily from stock rotations, plus knowledge of pending returns outside of the norm. On June 30, 2024, the deferred revenue and deferred cost on shipments to distributors were $592,199 and $247,145, respectively, compared to $825,670 and $322,580, respectively, on December 31, 2023.

June 30, 2024

The Company also earns revenue from its SocketCare extended warranty program, which provides extended warranty and accidental breakage coverage for selected products. Customers can purchase a SocketCare warranty at the time of product purchase, which provides coverage for a three-year or a five-year term. Revenues from SocketCare services are recognized ratably over the life of the extended warranty contract. For the quarters ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, SocketCare revenue was approximately $4,600 and $5,400, respectively. The amount of unrecognized SocketCare service revenue is classified as deferred service revenue and presented on the Company’s balance sheet in its short- and long-term components. On June 30, 2024, the balance of unrecognized SocketCare service revenue was approximately $34,400, compared to $32,700 as of December 31, 2023.

Cost of Sales and Gross Margins

Cost of sales primarily consists of the costs to manufacture our products, including the costs of materials, contract manufacturing, shipping costs, personnel and related expenses including stock-based compensation, equipment and facility expenses, warranty costs and inventory excess and obsolete provisions. The factors that affect our gross margins are the cost of materials, the mix of products and the extent to which we are able to efficiently utilize our manufacturing capacity.

Leases

On May 1, 2022, the Company entered into a building lease agreement for its corporate headquarters located in Fremont, CA. On June 30, 2024, the balances of right-of-use assets and liabilities for the operating lease were $2,853,267 and $3,064,611, respectively, compared to $3,088,087 and $3,292,033, respectively, on December 31, 2023.

Recently Issued Financial Accounting Standards

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standards setting bodies and adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows upon adoption.

NOTE 3 — Intangible Assets

In 2021, the Company entered into the Technology Transfer Agreement with SpringCard SAS. The Unaudited Condensed Balance Sheets include the intangible assets of the acquired technology at the carrying amount, net of amortization of $1,495,721 as of June 30, 2024.

The intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives of fifteen years, beginning on April 1, 2021. As of June 30, 2024, the estimated future amortization of these intangible assets is as follows:


Fiscal Year	Amount
2024 (July 1, 2024 to December 31, 2024)	$ 63,648
2025	127,296
2026	127,296
2027	127,296
2028	127,296
Thereafter	922,889

NOTE 5 — Bank Financing Arrangements

The Company initially entered into a Business Financing Agreement with Western Alliance Bank (the “Bank”), an Arizona corporation, on February 27, 2014, and this agreement has been amended and extended through the years.

Second Business Financing Modification Agreement and Waiver of Defaults

On January 25, 2023, the Company entered into the Second Business Financing Modification Agreement and Waiver of Defaults with the Bank which extended the maturity date of the Company’s revolving lines of credit to January 31, 2025.

Third Business Financing Modification Agreement and Waiver of Defaults

On May 26, 2023, the Company entered into the Third Business Financing Modification Agreement, Waiver of Defaults and Consent with the Bank. Under the terms of the agreement, the Bank agreed to waive the default resulting from the Company’s failure to meet the minimum adjusted EBITDA requirement in the quarter ended March 31, 2023. Additionally, the Bank granted its consent for the issuance of additional subordinated debt in May 2023.

Waiver of Defaults

On October 30, 2023, the Company entered into the Waiver of Default with the Bank. As part of the agreement, the bank waived the default resulting from the Company’s failure to meet the minimum adjusted EBITDA requirement in the quarter ended September 30, 2023.

Fourth Business Financing Modification Agreement and Waiver of Defaults

On April 8, 2024, the Company entered into the Fourth Business Financing Modification Agreement and Waiver of Default with the Bank. Under the terms of the agreement, the Bank agreed to waive the default arising from the Company’s failure to meet the minimum adjusted EBITDA requirement in the quarter ended December 31, 2023. Additionally, the Bank amended the Agreement to include minimum quarterly adjusted EBITDA for 2024 and decreased the advanced rate to up to 75% in the case of both domestic eligible receivables and EXIM eligible receivables.

Interest expense on the CalCap Loan for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, amounted to $1,138. The CalCap Loan balance of $125,000 was paid off on February 1, 2023.

There were no amounts borrowed on the Company’s bank credit lines as of June 30, 2024.

NOTE 6 — Secured Subordinated Convertible Notes Payable

On August 31, 2020, the Company completed a secured subordinated convertible note financing of $1,530,000, including $1,350,000 from officers, directors, and family members. Because the Financing involved such parties related to the Company, a special committee of the Board comprising the Board’s disinterested directors approved the Financing.

The funds raised are used to increase the Company’s working capital balances. The notes have a three-year term that accrues interest at 10% per annum and mature on August 30, 2023. The interest on the notes is payable quarterly in cash. The holder of each note may require the Company to repay the principal amount of the note plus accrued interest at any time after August 31, 2021. The principal amount of each note is convertible at any time, at the option of the holder, into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $1.46 per share, which was the market closing price of the common stock on Friday, August 28, 2020, the closing date of the financing. The notes did not contain a beneficial conversion feature because the conversion price is higher than the market closing price on the date of the notes payable. The notes are secured by the assets of the Company and are subordinated to amounts outstanding under the Company’s working capital bank line of credit with Western Alliance Bank. Total issuance costs associated with the financing are $96,515, and the costs are presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the notes payable balance of $1,530,000 as a contra-liability. The issuance costs are amortized over three years, the term of the notes payable, and the amortization expense is reported as interest expense. In 2021, two noteholders elected to convert note principal of $130,000 into shares of the Company’s common. Therefore, the outstanding notes payment balance is $1,400,000.

On November 16, 2022, the Company and the requisite holders of the outstanding notes entered into a Secured Subordinated Convertible Note Extension Agreement, extending the maturity date of the notes from August 30, 2023 to August 30, 2024. All other terms and conditions of the notes remain in full force and effect.

On May 1, 2024, the Company and the requisite holders of the outstanding notes entered into a Secured Subordinated Convertible Note Extension Agreement, extending the maturity date of the notes from August 30, 2024 to August 30, 2025. All other terms and conditions of the notes remain in full force and effect.

NOTE 8 — Stock-Based Compensation

The Company recognizes the compensation cost in the financial statements for all stock-based awards to employees, including grants of stock options and restricted stock, based on the fair value of the awards as of the date that the awards are issued. Compensation cost for stock-based awards is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.

The fair values of stock options are generally determined using a binomial lattice valuation model which incorporates assumptions about expected volatility, risk-free interest rate, dividend yield, and expected life.

On June 25, 2024, the Company completed a one-time tender offer to exchange 613,936 shares granted under its 2004 Equity Incentive Plan to the current employees, executive officers, and directors of the Company. All surrendered options were cancelled effective as of the expiration of the Exchange Offer on June 25, 2024. The Company granted new options to purchase an aggregate of 613,936 shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Offer and the Company’s 2004 Equity Incentive Plan. The new options were priced at the closing market price of $1.1197 on June 25, 2024, with a monthly vesting over 4 years and a new 10-year expiration date of June 25, 2034. The Company’s stockholders approved the implementation of this stock option exchange program at its 2024 annual meeting of stockholders on May 15, 2024. The fair value of granted options is $0.7821, determined through a binomial lattice valuation model.

In addition to the new shares issued under the exchange program, 75,000 stock options were granted during the six months ended June 30, 2024. No stock options were granted during the corresponding period in 2023.

The shares of restricted stock are issued to employees and consultants and are held in escrow by the Company until the shares vest on the schedule of 15% after year one, 20% after year two, 25% after year three and 40% after year four, subject to the employees and consultants being a continuing service provider on each of the vesting dates. If the service or employment is terminated, unvested shares revert to the Company. Shares are registered at grant, so share owners may vote at the annual stockholder meeting. Shares of restricted stock are granted at zero cost basis. Compensation cost of the restricted stock is recognized on a straight-line basis over the 4-year vesting period. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company awarded 500,750 and 450,370 shares of restricted stock, respectively. As of June 30, 2024, there were 1,134,907 shares of restricted stock outstanding. Due to the existence of restrictions on sale or transfer until the shares vest, the Company does not count the shares of restricted stock as issued and outstanding shares until they vest. During the first six months of 2024, 307,087 shares of restricted stock were issued to employees through vesting. The market value of the vested shares is subject to tax withholding.

Total stock-based compensation expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 were $274,734 and $547,434, respectively, compared to expenses of $306,416 and $602,249 in the corresponding periods a year ago.

For the six-month period, revenue increased by 6.7% to approximately $10.06 million from $9.43 million in the prior year. Revenue growth over the past six months was primarily driven by increases in both run rate and deployment business during the first quarter of 2024 compared to the same period in 2023.

Gross Margins

We have maintained a gross profit margin exceeding 50%. For the quarter ended June 30, 2024, our gross profit margin was 50.9%, compared to 51.8% in the prior year. For the six-month period, the margin was 50.6%, up from 50.1% in 2023. The improvement in the gross margin is primarily attributed to the effective management of manufacturing overhead costs.

The increase is primarily attributed to the cost-of-living adjustments implemented in Q2 2024. We recognize the critical importance of accelerating time-to-market for new products to drive revenue growth. As a result, we will continue to invest significantly in research and development as our revenue expands. We anticipate a modest increase in R&D expenses for the remainder of the year.

The increase is primarily attributed to new hires and the cost-of-living adjustments implemented in Q2 2024. We anticipate a modest increase for the remainder of the year.

General and Administrative Expense

General and administrative expense in the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 were approximately $733,000 and $1,484,000, respectively, representing a decrease of 2% and a decrease of 3% compared to expense of approximately $749,000 and $1,523,000 in the corresponding periods a year ago. The decrease is primarily attributed to reduced amortization of stock options. We anticipate a slight decrease in the general and administrative expenses for the remaining of the year.

Interest expense, net of interest income, in the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was approximately $72,000 and $145,000, respectively, compared to approximately $55,000 and $93,000, respectively, in the same periods one year ago. Interest expense in the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, was related to interest on the secured subordinated convertible notes payable (see “NOTE 6 — Secured Subordinated Convertible Notes Payable” of the notes to consolidated financial statements for more information). Our credit lines had no outstanding balances during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. Interest expense in the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, was related to interest on the secured subordinated convertible notes payable (see “NOTE 6 — Secured Subordinated Convertible Notes Payable” of the notes to consolidated financial statements for more information) and on the CalCap loan.

Interest income reflects interest earned on cash balances. Interest income was nominal in each of the comparable first quarters, reflecting low average rates of return.

Income Taxes

In the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, we did not record any income tax expense. As of June 30, 2024, our deferred tax asset, primarily representing future income tax savings from the application of net operating loss carry forwards, was valued at $10,112,419. In the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, we recorded income tax expenses of $166,000. As of December 31, 2023, our deferred tax asset was valued at $10,112,419.

Index

We have determined that utilization of existing net operating losses against future taxable income is not limited by Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. However, future ownership changes may limit our ability to fully utilize the existing net operating loss carryforwards against any future taxable income. We will continue to monitor the likelihood of realizing the value of deferred tax assets in the future.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As reflected in our Statements of Cash Flows, net cash used in operating activities was approximately $638,000 in the first half of 2024, compared to net cash used in operating activities amounted to approximately $528,000 in the first half of 2023. We calculate net cash used in operating activities by adjusting our net loss (approximately a net loss of approximately $1,165,000 and a net loss of $1,506,000 in the first half of 2024 and 2023, respectively) with the items that did not require the use of cash. Those items include stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization of equipment and intangible assets, amortization of debt discount and operating lease ROU assets, and deferred tax expenses (benefits). These amounts totaled approximately $1,314,000 and $1,437,000 in the first half of 2024 and 2023, respectively. In addition, we report increases in assets and reductions in liabilities as uses of cash and decreases in assets and increases in liabilities as sources of cash, together referred to as changes in operating assets and liabilities.

In the first half of 2024, changes in operating assets and liabilities resulted in net cash used in operating activities of approximately $787,000 which were primarily from increased accounts receivable levels driven by higher shipment levels at the end of the quarter and operating lease payments. The uses of cash were partially offset by reduction in inventory and increase in accounts payable.

In the first half of 2023, changes in operating assets and liabilities resulted in net cash used in operating activities of approximately $459,000 which were primarily from increased accounts receivable levels driven by higher shipment levels at the end of the quarter and operating lease payments. The uses of cash were partially offset by increases in net deferred revenue on shipments to distributors and an increase in accounts payable.

In the first half of 2024 and 2023, we invested approximately $168,000 and $1,104,000, respectively, in leasehold improvements, computer software development costs, and manufacturing tooling costs. In Q1 2024, these investing activities were offset by proceeds from a tenant improvements allowance amounting to $72,800.

Net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $24,000 in the first half of 2024, compared to net cash used in financing activities was approximately $1,439,000 in the comparable period a year ago. Financing activities in 2024 consisted solely of proceeds from stock options exercised. In contrast, financing activities in 2023 consisted primarily of the completion of secured subordinated note financing of $1,582,000 and the proceeds of employee stock options in the amount of $190,315. These were partially offset by the repurchase of treasury stock amounting to approximately $208,000 and the final repayment of our term loan, which was $125,000.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our significant accounting policies are described in “Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the notes to condensed financial statements. The application of these policies requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on a combination of historical experience and reasonable judgment applied to other facts. Actual results may differ from these estimates, and such differences may be material to the financial statements. In addition, the use of different assumptions or judgments may result in different estimates. We believe our critical accounting policies that are subject to these estimates are: Revenue Recognition and Accounts Receivable Reserves, Inventory Valuation, Stock-Based Compensation, Income Taxes and Valuation of Goodwill.

A complete description of our critical accounting policies and estimates is contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates primarily pertains to our revolving credit line facilities. These facilities provide us with up to $2.5 million with variable interest rates based upon the lender's prime rate (with a minimum of 4.25%) plus 0.75%. This applies to both the domestic line of credit (up to $2.0 million) and the EXIM line of credit (up to $0.5 million). As a result, any interest rate increases could raise our interest expense on outstanding credit line balances.

Foreign Currency Risk

A substantial majority of our revenue, expense and purchasing activities are transacted in U.S. dollars. However, we require our European distributors to purchase our products in Euros, and we pay the expenses of our European employees in Swiss Franc and British pounds. Additionally, we may enter into selected future purchase commitments with foreign suppliers that will be paid in the local currency of the supplier. Based on a sensitivity analysis of our net foreign currency-denominated assets at the end of the quarter ended June 30, 2024, an adverse change of 10% in exchange rates would have resulted in an increase of our net loss of approximately $25,200 for the second quarter of 2023. The actual net adjustment for the effects of changes in foreign currency on cash balances, collections, and payables was a gain of approximately $14,600 for the second quarter of 2024. We will continue to monitor and assess our risks related to foreign currency fluctuations to mitigate any potential impacts on our financial performance.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2024, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Index

PART II

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Ownership of the Company’s securities involves a number of risks and uncertainties. Potential investors should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below and the other information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and our other public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission before deciding whether to invest in the Company’s securities. The Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected by any of these risks. The risks described below are not the only ones facing the Company. Additional risks that are currently unknown to the Company or that the Company currently considers immaterial may also impair its business or adversely affect its financial condition or results of operations.

A deterioration in global economic conditions may have adverse impacts on our business and financial condition in ways that we currently cannot predict and may limit our ability to raise additional funds.

If global economic conditions deteriorate, it may impact our business and our financial condition. We may face significant challenges if conditions in the financial markets worsen. The impact of such future developments on our business, including the ongoing military action in Ukraine by Russia, is highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. If the overall economy continues to decline for an extended period, our results of operations, financial position and cash flows may be materially adversely affected. In addition, a severe prolonged economic downturn could result in a variety of risks to the business, including impairing our ability to pursue potential opportunities and limiting our ability to raise additional capital when needed on acceptable terms, if at all.

We may not return to profitability.

To return to profitability, we must accomplish numerous objectives, including achieving continued growth in our business, providing ongoing support to registered App providers whose applications support the use of our data capture products, and developing successful new products. We cannot foresee with any certainty whether we will be able to achieve these objectives in the future. Accordingly, we may not generate sufficient revenue or control our expenses enough to maintain ongoing profitability. If we cannot return to profitability, we will not be able to support our operations from positive cash flows, and we would be required to use our existing cash to support operating losses. If we are unable to secure the necessary capital to replace that cash, we may need to suspend some or all of our current operations.

We may require additional capital in the future, but that capital may not be available on reasonable terms, if at all, or on terms that would not cause substantial dilution to investors’ stock holdings.

We may need to raise capital to fund our growth or operating losses in future periods. Our forecasts are highly dependent on factors beyond our control, including market acceptance of our products and delays in deployments by businesses of applications that use our data capture products. Even if we maintain profitable operating levels, we may need to raise capital to provide sufficient working capital to fund our growth. If capital requirements vary materially from those currently planned, we may require additional capital sooner than expected. There can be no assurance that such capital will be available in sufficient amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all.

Index

In order to maintain the availability of our bank lines of credit we must remain in compliance with the covenants as specified under the terms of the credit agreements and the bank may exercise discretion in making advances to us.

Our credit agreements with our bank require us to remain in compliance with the covenants specified under the terms of the agreement. The agreements also contain customary affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that limit or restrict our ability to, among other things, grant liens, make investments, incur indebtedness, merge or consolidate, dispose of assets, make acquisitions, pay dividends or make distributions, repurchase stock, enter into transactions with affiliates and enter into restrictive agreements, in each case subject to customary exceptions for a credit facility of this size and type. The agreements also contain customary events of default including, among others, payment defaults, breaches of covenants, bankruptcy and insolvency events, cross defaults with certain material indebtedness, judgment defaults, and breaches of representations and warranties. Upon an event of default, our bank may declare all or a portion of our outstanding obligations payable to be immediately due and payable and exercise other rights and remedies provided for under the agreement. During the existence of an event of default, interest on the obligations could be increased. The agreements may be terminated by us or by our bank at any time. Upon such termination, our bank would no longer make advances under the credit agreement and outstanding advances would be repaid as receivables are collected. All advances are at our bank’s discretion and our bank is not obligated to make advances.

If application providers are not successful in their efforts to develop, market and sell the applications into which our software and products are incorporated, we may not achieve our sales projections.

We are dependent upon App providers to integrate our scanning and software products into their applications designed for mobile workers using smartphones, tablets and mobile computers, and to successfully market and sell those application products and solutions into the marketplace. We focus on serving the needs of App providers as sales of our data capture products are application driven. However, these providers may take considerable time to complete the development of their applications, may experience delays in their development timelines, may develop competing applications, may be unsuccessful in marketing and selling their application products and solutions to customers, or may experience delays in customer deployments and implementations, which would adversely affect our ability to achieve our revenue projections.

Failure to maintain effective internal controls could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, and stock price.

We have evaluated and will continue to evaluate our internal control procedures in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which requires an annual management assessment of the design and effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. If we fail to maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, as such standards are modified, supplemented, or amended from time to time, we may not be able to ensure that we can conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Moreover, effective internal controls, particularly those related to revenue recognition and access to assets, are necessary for us to produce reliable financial reports and are important to helping prevent financial fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our business and operating results could be harmed, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information, and the trading price of our stock could drop significantly.

Index

Despite security protections, our business records and information could be hacked by unauthorized personnel.

We protect our business records and information from access by unauthorized personnel and are not aware of any instances where such data has been compromised. We maintain adequate segregation of duties in safeguarding our assets and related records and monitor our systems to detect any attempts to bypass our controls and procedures which we evaluate and update from time to time. We are aware that unauthorized efforts to access our business records and information with sophisticated tools could bypass our controls and procedures and we remain alert to that possibility.

Deferred tax assets comprise a significant portion of our assets and are dependent upon future tax profitability to realize the benefits.

We have recorded deferred tax assets on our balance sheet because we believe that it is more likely than not that we will generate sufficient tax profitability in the future to realize the tax savings that our deferred tax assets represent. If we do not achieve and maintain sufficient profitability, the tax savings represented by our deferred tax assets may never be realized and we would need to recognize a loss for those deferred tax assets.

We may be unable to manufacture our products because we are dependent on a limited number of qualified suppliers for our components.

Several of our component parts are produced by one or a limited number of suppliers. Shortages or delays could occur in these essential components due to an interruption of supply or increased demand in the industry. Suppliers may choose to restrict credit terms or require advance payment causing delays in the procurement of essential materials. If we are unable to procure certain component parts, we could be required to reduce our operations while we seek alternative sources for these components, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial results. To the extent that we acquire extra inventory stocks to protect against possible shortages, we would be exposed to additional risks associated with holding inventory, such as obsolescence, excess quantities, or loss.

If we fail to develop and introduce new products rapidly and successfully, we will not be able to compete effectively, and our ability to generate sufficient revenues will be negatively affected.

The market for our products is prone to rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards and short product life cycles. If we are unsuccessful at developing and introducing new products and services on a timely basis that include the latest technologies, conform to the newest standards, and that are appealing to end users, we will not be able to compete effectively, and our ability to generate significant revenues will be seriously harmed.

Index

The development of new products and services can be very difficult and requires high levels of innovation. The development process is also lengthy and costly. Short product life cycles for smartphones and tablets expose our products to the risk of obsolescence and require frequent new product upgrades and introductions. We will be unable to introduce new products and services into the market on a timely basis and compete successfully if we fail to:

invest significant resources in research and development, sales and marketing, and customer support;

identify emerging trends, demands and standards in the field of mobile computing products;

enhance our products by adding additional features;

maintain superior or competitive performance in our products; and

anticipate our end users’ needs and technological trends accurately.

We cannot be sure that we will have sufficient resources to make adequate investments in research and development or that we will be able to identify trends or make the technological advances necessary to be competitive.

We may not be able to collect receivables from customers who experience financial difficulties.

Our accounts receivable is derived primarily from distributors. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers’ financial conditions but generally require no collateral from our customers. Reserves are maintained for potential credit losses, and such losses have historically been within such reserves. However, many of our customers may be thinly capitalized and may be prone to failure in adverse market conditions. Although our collection history has been good, from time to time a customer may not pay us because of financial difficulty, bankruptcy or liquidation. If global financial conditions have an impact on our customer’s ability to pay us in a timely manner, consequently, we may experience increased difficulty in collecting our accounts receivable, and we may have to increase our reserves in anticipation of increased uncollectible accounts.

We could face increased competition in the future, which would adversely affect our financial performance.

The market in which we operate is very competitive. Our future financial performance is contingent on a number of unpredictable factors, including that:

some of our competitors have greater financial, marketing, and technical resources than we do;

we periodically face intense price competition, particularly when our competitors have excess inventories and discount their prices to clear their inventories; and

certain manufacturers of tablets and mobile phones offer products with built-in functions, such as Bluetooth wireless technology or barcode scanning, that compete with our products.

Index

Increased competition could result in price reductions, fewer customer orders, reduced margins, and loss of market share. Our failure to compete successfully against current or future competitors could harm our business, operating results, and financial condition.

If we do not correctly anticipate demand for our products, our operating results will suffer.

The demand for our products depends on many factors and is difficult to forecast as we introduce and support more products, and as competition in the markets for our products intensifies. If demand is lower than forecasted levels, we could have excess production resulting in higher inventories of finished products and components, which could lead to write-downs or write-offs of some or all of the excess inventories, and reductions in our cash balances. Lower than forecasted demand could also result in excess manufacturing capacity at our third-party manufacturers and in our failure to meet minimum purchase commitments, each of which may lower our operating results.

If demand increases beyond forecasted levels, we will have to rapidly increase production at our third-party manufacturers. We depend on suppliers to provide additional volumes of components, and suppliers might not be able to increase production rapidly enough to meet unexpected demand. Even if we were able to procure enough components, our third-party manufacturers might not be able to produce enough of our devices to meet our customer demand. In addition, rapid increases in production levels to meet unanticipated demand could result in higher costs for manufacturing and supply of components and other expenses. These higher costs could lower our profit margins. Further, if production is increased rapidly, manufacturing yields could decline, which may also lower operating results.

We rely primarily on distributors to distribute our products, and our sales would suffer if any of these distributors stopped distributing our products effectively.

Because we distribute and fulfill resellers’ orders for our products primarily through distributors, we are subject to risks associated with channel distribution, such as risks related to their inventory levels and support for our products. Our distribution channels may build up inventories in anticipation of growth in their sales. If such growth in their sales does not occur as anticipated, the inventory build-up could contribute to higher levels of product returns. The lack of sales by any one significant participant in our distribution channels could result in excess inventories and adversely affect our operating results and working capital liquidity. During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, Ingram Micro® and BlueStar together represented approximately 50% and 46%, respectively, of our worldwide sales. We expect that a significant portion of our sales will continue to depend on sales to a limited number of distributors.

Our agreements with distributors are generally nonexclusive and may be terminated on short notice by them without cause. Our distributors are not within our control, are not obligated to purchase products from us, and may offer competitive lines of products simultaneously. Sales growth is contingent in part on our ability to enter into additional distribution relationships and expand our sales channels. We cannot predict whether we will be successful in establishing new distribution relationships, expanding our sales channels or maintaining our existing relationships. A failure to enter into new distribution relationships, expand our sales channels, or maintain our existing relationships could adversely impact our ability to grow our sales.

Index

We allow our distribution channels to return a portion of their inventory to us for full credit against other purchases. In addition, in the event we reduce our prices, we credit our distributors for the difference between the purchase price of products remaining in their inventory and our reduced price for such products. Actual returns and price protection may adversely affect future operating results and working capital liquidity by reducing our accounts receivable and increasing our inventory balances, particularly since we seek to continually introduce new and enhanced products and are likely to face increasing price competition.

We depend on alliances and other business relationships with third parties, and a disruption in these relationships would hinder our ability to develop and sell our products.

We depend on strategic alliances and business relationships with leading participants in various segments of the mobile applications market to help us develop and market our products. Our strategic partners may revoke their commitment to our products or services at any time in the future or may develop their own competitive products or services. Accordingly, our strategic relationships may not result in sustained business alliances, successful product or service offerings, or the generation of significant revenues. Failure of one or more of such alliances could result in delay or termination of product development projects, failure to win new customers or loss of confidence by current or potential customers.

We have devoted significant research and development resources to design products to work with a number of operating systems used in mobile devices including Apple® (iOS), Google™ (Android™) and Microsoft® (Windows®). Such design activities have diverted financial and personnel resources from other development projects. These design activities are not undertaken pursuant to any agreement under which Apple, Google or Microsoft is obligated to collaborate or to support the products produced from such collaboration. Consequently, these organizations may terminate their collaborations with us for a variety of reasons, including our failure to meet agreed-upon standards or for reasons beyond our control, such as changing market conditions, increased competition, discontinued product lines, and product obsolescence.

Our intellectual property and proprietary rights may be insufficient to protect our competitive position.

Our business depends on our ability to protect our intellectual property. We rely primarily on patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret laws, and other restrictions on disclosure to protect our proprietary technologies. We cannot be sure that these measures will provide meaningful protection for our proprietary technologies and processes. We cannot be sure that any patent issued to us will be sufficient to protect our technology. The failure of any patents to provide protection for our technology would make it easier for our competitors to offer similar products. In connection with our participation in the development of various industry standards, we may be required to license certain of our patents to other parties, including our competitors that develop products based upon the adopted standards.

Index

We also generally enter into confidentiality agreements with our employees, distributors, and strategic partners, and generally control access to our documentation and other proprietary information. Despite these precautions, it may be possible for a third-party to copy or otherwise obtain and use our products, services, or technology without authorization, develop similar technology independently, or design around our patents.

Additionally, effective copyright, trademark, and trade secret protection may be unavailable or limited in certain foreign countries.

We may become subject to claims of intellectual property rights infringement, which could result in substantial liability.

In the course of operating our business, we may receive claims of intellectual property infringement or otherwise become aware of potentially relevant patents or other intellectual property rights held by other parties. Many of our competitors have large intellectual property portfolios, including patents that may cover technologies that are relevant to our business. In addition, many smaller companies, universities, and individuals have obtained or applied for patents in areas of technology that may relate to our business. The industry is moving towards aggressive assertion, licensing, and litigation of patents and other intellectual property rights.

If we are unable to obtain and maintain licenses on favorable terms for intellectual property rights required for the manufacture, sale, and use of our products, particularly those products which must comply with industry standard protocols and specifications to be commercially viable, our results of operations or financial condition could be adversely impacted.

In addition to disputes relating to the validity or alleged infringement of other parties’ rights, we may become involved in disputes relating to our assertion of our own intellectual property rights. Whether we are defending the assertion of intellectual property rights against us or asserting our intellectual property rights against others, intellectual property litigation can be complex, costly, protracted, and highly disruptive to business operations by diverting the attention and energies of management and key technical personnel. Plaintiffs in intellectual property cases often seek injunctive relief, and the measures of damages in intellectual property litigation are complex and often subjective or uncertain. Thus, any adverse determinations in this type of litigation could subject us to significant liabilities and costs.

New industry standards may require us to redesign our products, which could substantially increase our operating expenses.

Standards for the form and functionality of our products are established by standards committees. These independent committees establish standards, which evolve and change over time, for different categories of our products. We must continue to identify and ensure compliance with evolving industry standards so that our products are interoperable and we remain competitive. Unanticipated changes in industry standards could render our products incompatible with products developed by major hardware manufacturers and software developers. Should any major changes, even if anticipated, occur, we would be required to invest significant time and resources to redesign our products to ensure compliance with relevant standards. If our products are not in compliance with prevailing industry standards for a significant period of time, we would miss opportunities to sell our products for use with new hardware components from mobile computer manufacturers and OEMs, thus affecting our business.

Index

Undetected flaws and defects in our products may disrupt product sales and result in expensive and time-consuming remedial action

Our hardware and software products may contain undetected flaws, which may not be discovered until customers have used the products. From time to time, we may temporarily suspend or delay shipments or divert development resources from other projects to correct a particular product deficiency. Efforts to identify and correct errors and make design changes may be expensive and time-consuming. Failure to discover product deficiencies in the future could delay product introductions or shipments, require us to recall previously shipped products to make design modifications, or cause unfavorable publicity, any of which could adversely affect our business and operating results.

The loss of one or more of our senior personnel could harm our existing business.

A number of our officers and senior managers have been employed for more than twenty years by us, including our President, Chief Financial Officer, Vice President of Operations and Vice President of Engineering/Chief Technical Officer. Our future success will depend upon the continued service of key officers and senior managers. Competition for officers and senior managers is intense, and there can be no assurance that we will be able to retain our existing senior personnel. The loss of one or more of our officers or key senior managers could adversely affect our ability to compete.

The expensing of stock options and restricted stocks will continue to reduce our operating results such that we may find it necessary to change our business practices to attract and retain employees.

We have been using stock options and restricted stocks as key components of our employee compensation packages. We believe that stock options and restricted stocks provide an incentive to our employees to maximize long-term stockholder value and, through the use of vesting, encourage valued employees to remain with us. The expensing of employee stock options and restricted stocks adversely affects our net income and earnings per share, will continue to adversely affect future quarters, and will make profitability harder to achieve. In addition, we may decide in response to the effects of expensing stock options and restricted stocks on our operating results to reduce the number of stock options or restricted stocks granted to employees or to grant to fewer employees. This could adversely affect our ability to retain existing employees or attract qualified candidates, and also could increase the cash compensation we would have to pay to them.

Index

If we are unable to attract and retain highly skilled sales and marketing and product development personnel, our ability to develop and market new products and product enhancements will be adversely affected.

We believe our ability to achieve increased revenues and to develop successful new products and product enhancements will depend in part upon our ability to attract and retain highly skilled sales and marketing and product development personnel. Our products involve a number of new and evolving technologies, and we frequently need to apply these technologies to the unique requirements of mobile products. Our personnel must be familiar with both the technologies we support and the unique requirements of the products to which our products connect. Competition for such personnel is intense, and we may not be able to attract and retain such key personnel. In addition, our ability to hire and retain such key personnel will depend upon our ability to raise capital or achieve increased revenue levels to fund the costs associated with such key personnel. Failure to attract and retain such key personnel will adversely affect our ability to develop and market new products and product enhancements.

Our operating results could be harmed by economic, political, regulatory and other risks associated with export sales.

Our operating results are subject to the risks inherent in export sales, including:

longer payment cycles;

unexpected changes in regulatory requirements, import and export restrictions and tariffs;

difficulties in managing foreign operations;

the burdens of complying with a variety of foreign laws;

greater difficulty or delay in accounts receivable collection;

potentially adverse tax consequences; and

political and economic instability (such as Russia’s military action against Ukraine).

Our export sales are primarily denominated in Euros for our sales to European distributors and in British pounds for our sales to UK distributors. Accordingly, an increase in the value of the United States dollar relative to the Euro or British pound could make our products more expensive and therefore potentially less competitive in European markets. Declines in the value of the Euro or pound relative to the United States dollar may result in foreign currency losses relating to the collection of receivables denominated if left unhedged.

Our facilities or operations could be adversely affected by events outside our control, such as natural disasters or health epidemics.

Our corporate headquarters is located in a seismically active region in Northern California. If major disasters such as earthquakes occur, or our information system or communications network breaks down or operates improperly, our headquarters and production facilities may be seriously damaged, or we may have to stop or delay production and shipment of our products. In addition, we may be affected by health epidemic or pandemics, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, or geopolitical instability, such as Russia’s military action against Ukraine. We may incur expenses or delays relating to such events outside of our control, which could have a material adverse impact on our business, operating results and financial condition.

Index

Our quarterly operating results may fluctuate in future periods, which could cause our stock price to decline.

We expect to experience quarterly fluctuations in operating results in the future. Quarterly revenues and operating results depend on the volume and timing of orders received, which sometimes are difficult to forecast. Historically, we have recognized a substantial portion of our revenue in the last month of the quarter. This subjects us to the risk that even modest delays in orders or in the manufacture of products relating to orders received, may adversely affect our quarterly operating results. Our operating results may also fluctuate due to factors such as:

the demand for our products;

the size and timing of customer orders;

unanticipated delays or problems in our introduction of new products and product enhancements;

the introduction of new products and product enhancements by our competitors;

the timing of the introduction and deployment of new applications that work with our products;

changes in the revenues attributable to royalties and engineering development services;

product mix;

timing of software enhancements;

changes in the level of operating expenses;

competitive conditions in the industry including competitive pressures resulting in lower average selling prices;

timing of distributors’ shipments to their customers;

delays in supplies of key components used in the manufacturing of our products; and

general economic conditions and conditions specific to our customers’ industries.

Because we base our staffing and other operating expenses on anticipated revenues, unanticipated declines or delays in the receipt of orders can cause significant variations in operating results from quarter to quarter. As a result of any of the foregoing factors, or a combination, our results of operations in any given quarter may be below the expectations of public market analysts or investors, in which case the market price of our common stock would be adversely affected.

The sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock could cause the market price of our common stock to decline.

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market could adversely affect the market price for our common stock. The market price of our common stock could also decline if one or more of our significant stockholders decided for any reason to sell substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market.

As of August 9, 2024, we had 7,598,849 shares of common stock outstanding. Substantially all of these shares are freely tradable in the public market, either without restriction or subject, in some cases, only to Form S-3 prospectus delivery requirements and, in other cases, only to the manner of sale, volume, and notice requirements of Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

As of August 9, 2024, we had 1,130,846 shares of common stock subject to outstanding options under our stock option plans,1,123,457 shares of restricted stock outstanding, and 378,677 shares of common stock available for future issuance under the plans. We have registered the shares of common stock subject to outstanding options and restricted stock and reserved them for issuance under our stock option plans. Accordingly, the shares of common stock underlying vested options and unvested restricted stock will be eligible for resale in the public market as soon as the options are exercised or the restricted stock vests, as applicable.

Index

Volatility in the trading price of our common stock could negatively impact the price of our common stock.

During the period from January 1, 2023 through the date of the report, our common stock price fluctuated between a high of $2.48 and a low of $0.90. We have experienced low trading volumes in our stock, and thus relatively small purchases and sales can have a significant effect on our stock price. The trading price of our common stock could be subject to wide fluctuations in response to many factors, some of which are beyond our control, including general economic conditions and the outlook of securities analysts and investors on our industry. In addition, the stock markets in general, and the markets for high technology stocks in particular, have experienced high volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock.

NOTE 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	6 Months Ended
	Jun. 30, 2024
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the financial statements.
Cash Equivalents and Fair Value of Financial Instruments	Cash Equivalents and Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with a maturity date of 90 days or less at date of purchase to be cash equivalents. In response to volatility in the financial markets in March 2023, the Company entered into an Insured Cash Sweep (“ICS”) Deposit Placement Agreement with IntraFi Network LLC facilitated by its bank, Bridge Bank - a division of Western Alliance Bank. The ICS program provides the Company’s demand or savings products with access to unlimited FDIC insurance, which helps the Company to keep the full amount of the deposit on its balance sheet and provides additional security during times of market uncertainty. As of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, all of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents consisted of amounts held in demand deposit accounts in banks. The Company has never experienced any losses in such accounts. The carrying value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and debt approximate fair value due to the relatively short period of time to maturity.
Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue	Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue With the adoption of ASC 606 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” in 2017, the Company recognizes revenue on sales to distributors when shipping of product is completed and title transfers to distributor, less a reserve for estimated product returns (sales and cost of sales). The reserves are based on estimates of future returns calculated from actual return history, primarily from stock rotations, plus knowledge of pending returns outside of the norm. On June 30, 2024, the deferred revenue and deferred cost on shipments to distributors were $592,199 and $247,145, respectively, compared to $825,670 and $322,580, respectively, on December 31, 2023. SOCKET MOBILE, INC. NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) June 30, 2024 The Company also earns revenue from its SocketCare extended warranty program, which provides extended warranty and accidental breakage coverage for selected products. Customers can purchase a SocketCare warranty at the time of product purchase, which provides coverage for a three-year or a five-year term. Revenues from SocketCare services are recognized ratably over the life of the extended warranty contract. For the quarters ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, SocketCare revenue was approximately $4,600 and $5,400, respectively. The amount of unrecognized SocketCare service revenue is classified as deferred service revenue and presented on the Company’s balance sheet in its short- and long-term components. On June 30, 2024, the balance of unrecognized SocketCare service revenue was approximately $34,400, compared to $32,700 as of December 31, 2023.
Cost of Sales and Gross Margins	Cost of Sales and Gross Margins Cost of sales primarily consists of the costs to manufacture our products, including the costs of materials, contract manufacturing, shipping costs, personnel and related expenses including stock-based compensation, equipment and facility expenses, warranty costs and inventory excess and obsolete provisions. The factors that affect our gross margins are the cost of materials, the mix of products and the extent to which we are able to efficiently utilize our manufacturing capacity.
Leases	Leases On May 1, 2022, the Company entered into a building lease agreement for its corporate headquarters located in Fremont, CA. On June 30, 2024, the balances of right-of-use assets and liabilities for the operating lease were $2,853,267 and $3,064,611, respectively, compared to $3,088,087 and $3,292,033, respectively, on December 31, 2023.
Recently Issued Financial Accounting Standards	Recently Issued Financial Accounting Standards From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standards setting bodies and adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows upon adoption.
