WIDEPOINT CORPORATION
AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. | Organization and Nature of Operations |
Organization
WidePoint Corporation (“WidePoint” or the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on May 30, 1997 and conducts operations through its wholly-owned operating subsidiaries throughout the continental United States, Ireland, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. The Company’s principal executive and administrative headquarters is located in McLean, Virginia.
Nature of Operations
The Company is a leading provider of trusted mobility management (TM2) solutions to the government and commercial sectors. The Company utilizes its subject matter expertise and internally developed proprietary software, analytical and reporting tools to deliver its communications and related identity management solutions. The Company’s solutions are internally hosted solutions which are accessible on-demand through a secure portal that provides its customers with a set of streamlined mobile communications management, identity management, and consulting solutions. The Company’s TM2 solutions provides its customers the ability to efficiently manage, analyze and protect their valuable communications assets, and deploy federal government compliant identity management solutions that provide secured virtual and physical access to restricted environments.
Successful contract performance and variation in the volume of activity as well as in the number of contracts commenced or completed during any quarter may cause significant variations in operating results from quarter to quarter. The Company derives a significant amount of its revenues from contracts funded by federal government agencies for which WidePoint’s subsidiaries act in the capacity as the prime contractor, or as a subcontractor. The Company believes that contracts with federal government agencies will be the primary source of revenues for the foreseeable future. External factors outside of the Company’s control such as delays and/or a changes in government administrations, budgets and other political matters that may impact the timing and commencement of such work and could result in variations in operating results and directly affect the Company’s financial performance.
A significant portion of the Company’s expenses, such as personnel and facilities costs, are fixed in the short term and may be not be easily modified to manage through changes in the Company’s market place that may create pressure on pricing and/or costs to deliver its services.
The Company has periodic capital expense requirements to maintain and upgrade its internal technology infrastructure tied to its hosted solutions and other such costs may be significant when incurred in any given quarter.
2. | Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policies |
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2018 and for each of the three month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, included herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Pursuant to such regulations, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. It is the opinion of management that all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of financial results are reflected in the financial statements for the interim periods presented. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2017 was derived from the audited condensed consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. The results of operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 are not indicative of the operating results for the full year.
7
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly owned subsidiaries and acquired entities since their respective dates of acquisition. All significant inter-company amounts were eliminated in consolidation.
Foreign Currency
Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon exchange rates prevailing at the end of each reporting period. The resulting translation adjustments, along with any related tax effects, are included in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income, a component of stockholders’ equity. Translation adjustments are reclassified to earnings upon the sale or substantial liquidation of investments in foreign operations. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average month-end exchange rates during the year. Gains and losses related to transactions in a currency other than the functional currency, including operations outside the U.S. where the functional currency is the U.S. dollar, are reported net in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations, depending on the nature of the activity.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The more significant areas requiring use of estimates and judgment relate to revenue recognition, accounts receivable valuation reserves, ability to realize intangible assets and goodwill, ability to realize deferred income tax assets, fair value of certain financial instruments and the evaluation of contingencies and litigation. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates. There were no significant changes in accounting estimates used by management during the quarter.
Significant Accounting Policies
There have been no significant changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies during the first three months of 2018 from those disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 filed with the SEC on March 21, 2018, except as further described below under “Recently Adopted Accounting Standards”.
Segment Reporting
Our TM2 solution offerings comprise an overall single business from which the Company earns revenues and incurs costs. The Company’s TM2 solution offerings are centrally managed and reported on that basis to its Chief Operating Decision Maker who evaluates its business as a single segment. See Note 14 for detailed information regarding the composition of revenues.
Accounting Standards Update
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
Accounting Standards Codification 606 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. In May 2014, ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” was issued. This ASU requires the use of a five-step methodology to depict the transfer of promised goods and services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, the ASU requires enhanced disclosure regarding revenue recognition.
8
The standard permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method (modified retrospective method). The Company adopted the ASU on a modified retrospective transition method on January 1, 2018 and will apply the guidance to the most current period presented in the financial statements issued subsequent to the adoption date. The Company did not record a cumulative adjustment to retained earnings as of January 1, 2018 since the Company was recognizing revenue consistent with the provisions of ASC 606 and any adjustment would have been deemed immaterial. In preparation for adoption of the standard, the Company has implemented internal controls to enable the preparation of financial information and have reached conclusions on key accounting assessments related to the standard, including that accounting for variable consideration is immaterial.
The Company adopted the standard through the application of the portfolio approach and selected a sample of customer contracts to assess under the guidance of the new standard that are characteristically representative of each revenue stream. The Company has completed its review of the sample contracts, and the Company does not anticipate a significant change to the pattern or timing of revenue recognition as a result of adopting the new standard. The Company revised its revenue recognition policy as follows to incorporate the requirements of the new standard.
Revenue from Contracts with Customers
Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised products or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products or services. The Company enters into contracts that can include various combinations of products and services, which are generally capable of being distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations. Revenue is recognized net of allowances for returns and any taxes collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities.
Nature of Products and Services
The Company’s TM2 solution consists of three broad services as described below:
§ | Telecom Lifecycle Services. The Company earns revenues from its managed services under firm fixed price contracts that include multiple deliverables. Revenue is accrued each month services are delivered and the amount accrued is based on what the Company expects will be ultimately invoiced. Differences between estimated revenues and actual billed revenues are adjusted in the period billings are prepared and such differences have not historically been material. Revenue and billings to the end customer are determined by multiplying the contractual fixed price times the base output which may be based on the number of units managed, percentage of supplier spend and/or savings, units delivered, certificates issued and/or billable hours. Revenue on contingent-fee arrangements are recognized upon customer acceptance of proposed billing. Managed services are not interdependent and there are no undelivered elements in these arrangements. |
§ | Identity Management. The Company issues its proprietary PKI identity credentialing software certificates to individuals or as an enterprise solution under which the customer issues the individual certificates. Certificates issued have a fixed life and cannot be modified or reissued. For any certificate products that we issue to individuals there are nominal post contract services to maintain issued certificate keys and infrastructure required to enable the credential to operate for the fixed term. Revenue is recognized from the sales of credentials to an individual or as an enterprise solution upon issuance; provided there are no other additional performance obligations. Revenue from this service does not require significant accounting estimates. Cost of Revenues includes general infrastructure support costs to maintain the continued issuance of credentials. This service is broadly classified as a managed service. |
§ | Telecom Bill Presentation and Analytics. The Company offers software under a perpetual and term license. Revenue from software licenses which are sold as a perpetual license and which do not involve the significant production, modification or customization of the software are recognized when the software is delivered. Where an arrangement to deliver software involves significant production, modification or customization, the software revenue is not recognized until such time as the software has been accepted by the client. Revenue from software licenses which are sold as term licenses, which do not involve the significant production, modification or customization of the software are recognized evenly over the license term once the software has been delivered. Where an arrangement to deliver software involves significant production, modification or customization, software sold as a term license is recognized ratably over the license term from the date the software is accepted by the client. Implementation fees are recognized over the term of the agreement once the software has been delivered. Maintenance services, if contracted, are recognized ratably over the term of the maintenance agreement, generally twelve months. Revenue from this service does not require significant accounting estimates. |
9
Significant Judgments
The Company’s contracts with customers often include promises to transfer multiple products and services to a customer. Determining whether products and services are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately versus together may require significant judgment. The Company provides a managed service solution model to its customers that may require a combination of labor, third party products and services under a fixed rate or fixed fee arrangement. Components of our managed service solution are generally distinct performance obligations that are not interdependent and can be completed within a month. The Company’s products are generally sold with a right of return and the Company may provide other event driven credits or disincentives for not meeting performance obligations which are accounted for as variable consideration when estimating the amount of revenue to recognize. Returns and credits are estimated at contract inception and updated at the end of each reporting period as additional information becomes available and only to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal of any incremental revenue will not occur.
Contract Balances
Timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers. Most customer contracts are billed in arrears as the information required to create an invoice for our services is generally not available the following month after services were delivered. As a result, the Company may have both trade receivables (invoiced sales) and unbilled receivables (sales yet to be invoiced. The Company records an unbilled receivable when revenue is recognized prior to invoicing. The Company may be required under contractual terms to bill for services in advance and in that case the Company will invoice and deferred revenue when revenue is received prior to revenue being earned.
The allowance for doubtful accounts reflects our best estimate of probable losses inherent in the accounts receivable balance. The Company determines its allowance for doubtful accounts by considering a number of factors, including the type of customer, credit worthiness, payment history, length of time accounts receivable are past due, the Company’s previous loss history, the customer’s current ability to pay its obligation to the Company, and the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. The Company writes off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to the allowance for doubtful accounts. Customer account balances outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms are reviewed for collectability and after 90 days are considered past due unless arrangements were made at the time of the transaction that specified different payment terms. Upon specific review and its determination that a bad debt reserve may be required, the Company will reserve such amount if it views the account as potentially uncollectable. Customer account balances outstanding longer than 120 days that have not been settled in accordance with contract terms and for which no firm payment commitments exist are placed with a third party collection agency and a reserve is established. The Company writes off accounts receivable after 180 days or earlier when they become uncollectible. Payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to the allowance for doubtful accounts. If the accounts receivable has been written off and no allowance for doubtful accounts exist subsequent payments received are credited to bad debt expense as a recovery.
Payment terms and conditions vary by contract type, although terms generally include a requirement of payment within 30 to 90 days. Government receivables are billed under a single consolidated monthly invoice and are billed approximately thirty (30) to sixty (60) days in arrears from the date of service and payment is generally due within thirty (30) days of the invoice date. Government accounts receivable payments could be delayed due to administrative processing delays by the government agency, continuing budget resolutions that may delay availability of contract funding, and/or administrative only invoice correction requests by contracting officers that may delay payment processing by our government customer. Commercial accounts receivables are billed based on the underlying contract terms and conditions which generally have repayment terms that range from thirty (30) to ninety (90) days. In instances where the timing of revenue recognition differs from the timing of invoicing, we have determined our contracts generally do not include a significant financing component. The primary purpose of our invoicing terms is to provide customers with simplified and predictable ways of purchasing our products and services, not to receive financing from our customers.
Costs to Obtain a Contract with a Customer
The Company does not recognize assets from the costs to obtain a contract with a customer and generally expenses these costs as incurred. The Company primarily uses internal labor to manage and oversee the customer acquisition process and to finalize contract terms and conditions and commence customer start-up activities, if any. Internal labor costs would be incurred regardless of the outcome of a contract with a customer and as such those costs are not considered incremental to the cost to obtain a contract with a customer. The Company does not typically incur significant incremental costs to obtain a contract with a customer after such contract has been awarded. Incremental costs to obtain a contract with a customer may include payment of commissions to certain internal and/or external sales agents upon collection of invoiced sales from the customer. The Company does not typically prepay sales commissions in advance of being paid for services delivered.

Accounting Standards under Evaluation
In February 2016, the FASB issued new accounting guidance on leases. The guidance, effective January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted, requires virtually all leases to be recognized on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company will adopt the standard effective January 1, 2019. The new guidance currently requires a modified retrospective transition approach, which would cause us to record existing operating leases on the condensed consolidated balance sheets upon adoption and in the comparative period. In January 2018, the FASB released an exposure draft that, if issued in its current form, would provide the Company with the option to adopt the provisions of the new guidance prospectively, without adjusting the comparative periods presented. The Company is currently reviewing its property and equipment leases and evaluating and interpreting the requirements under the guidance, including the available accounting policy elections, in order to determine the impacts on the consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows upon adoption.
Accounting Standards Codification 350 “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other.” In January 2017, ASU No. 2017-04, “Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment” was issued. Under the amendments in this ASU, an entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An entity should recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value; however, the loss should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The ASU also eliminated the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. An entity should apply this ASU on a prospective basis and for its annual or any interim goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is continuing to evaluate the effect this guidance will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
3. | Contingent Consideration |
On April 30, 2017, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Probaris Technologies, Inc. (“Seller”) and paid approximately $304,300 to purchase certain commercial identity and authentication software assets (the “Software Assets”). The Company principally purchased the Software Assets to ensure that a key component in the delivery of the Company’s identify management solution offering was neither acquired by a competitor nor no longer made available to license. Also under the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to pay contingent consideration of $100,000 to the Seller if the Seller’s sole government customer renews its license agreement in 2018. During the three month period ended March 31, 2018 there were no changes in the Company estimated the fair value of contingent consideration. At March 31, 2018 the fair value of contingent consideration was $100,000 as the Company believes the government customer renewal is probable based on the current contract renewal stage.
4. | Accounts Receivable and Significant Concentrations |
A significant portion of the Company’s revenue arrangements consist of firm fixed price contracts with agencies of the U.S. federal government and several large multinational corporations. Accounts receivable consist of the following by customer type in the table below as of the periods presented:

For the three month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company did not recognize any material provisions for bad debt or write-offs of existing provisions for bad debt. There were recoveries of approximately $5,800 related to commercial accounts receivable for which an allowance had been previously established. The Company has not historically maintained a bad debt reserve for its government customers as it has not experienced material or recurring bad debt charges and the nature and size of the contracts has not necessitated the Company’s establishment of such a bad debt reserve.

9. | Line of Credit and Long Term Debt |
Commercial Loan Agreement Facility
On June 15, 2017, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with Access National Bank (the “Loan Agreement”). The Loan Agreement provides for a $5.0 million working capital revolving line of credit. Effective April 30, 2018, the Company entered into a modification agreement (“Modification Agreement”) with Access National Bank to amend the existing Loan Agreement. The Modification Agreement extended the maturity date of the facility through April 30, 2019 and added an additional financial covenant requiring the Company to maintain consolidated minimum adjusted earnings before interest taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) (as defined in the Modification Agreement) of at least two times interest expense to be measured as of the last day of each quarterly period.
The Loan Agreement requires that the Company meet the following financial covenants on a quarterly basis: (i) maintain a minimum adjusted tangible net worth of at least $2.0 million, (ii) maintain minimum consolidated adjusted EBITDA of at least two times interest expense and (iii) maintain a current ratio of 1.10:1.
The available amount under the working capital line of credit is subject to a borrowing base, which is equal to the lesser of (i) $5.0 million or (ii) 70% of the net unpaid balance of the Company’s eligible accounts receivable. The interest rate for the working capital line of credit is the Wall Street Journal prime rate plus 1.0%. The facility is secured by a first lien security interest on all of the Company’s personal property, including its accounts receivable, general intangibles, inventory and equipment maintained in the United States. As of March 31, 2018, the Company was eligible to borrow up to $4.1 million under the borrowing base formula.

10. | Income Taxes |
The Company files U.S. federal income tax returns with the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) as well as income tax returns in various states and certain foreign countries. The Company may be subject to examination by the IRS or various state taxing jurisdictions for tax years 2003 and forward. The Company may be subject to examination by various foreign countries for tax years 2014 forward. As of March 31, 2018, the Company was not under examination by the IRS, any state or foreign tax jurisdiction. The Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits at either March 31, 2018 or December 31, 2017. In the future if applicable, any interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions will be recognized in income tax expense.
As of March 31, 2018, the Company had approximately $36.7 million in net operating loss (NOL) carry forwards available to offset future taxable income for federal income tax purposes, net of the potential Section 382 limitations. These federal NOL carry forwards expire between 2020 and 2037. Included in the recorded deferred tax asset, the Company had a benefit of approximately $44.0 million available to offset future taxable income for state income tax purposes. These state NOL carry forwards expire between 2024 and 2037. Because of the change of ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, use of a portion of our domestic NOL may be limited in future periods. Further, a portion of the carryforwards may expire before being applied to reduce future income tax liabilities.
Management assesses the available positive and negative evidence to estimate if sufficient future taxable income will be generated to use the existing deferred tax assets. Under existing income tax accounting standards such objective evidence is more heavily weighted in comparison to other subjective evidence such as our projections for future growth, tax planning and other tax strategies. A significant piece of objective negative evidence considered in management’s evaluation of the realizability of its deferred tax assets was the existence of cumulative losses over the latest three-year period. Management forecast future taxable income, but concluded that there may not be enough of a recovery before the end of the fiscal year to overcome the negative objective evidence of three years of cumulative losses. On the basis of this evaluation, management recorded a valuation allowance against all deferred tax assets. If management’s assumptions change and we determine we will be able to realize these deferred tax assets, the tax benefits relating to any reversal of the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets will be accounted for as a reduction of income tax expense.
11. | Stockholders’ Equity |
Preferred Stock
There were no issuances of preferred stock during the three month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.
16
Common Stock
The Company is authorized to issue 110,000,000 shares of common stock, $.001 par value per share. As of March 31, 2018, there were 84,062,446 shares issued (including 980,851 restricted stock awards issued but not vested) and 83,081,595 shares of common stock outstanding. There were no shares of common stock issued as a result of the vesting of restricted stock awards (RSA) during the three month period ended March 31, 2018. The Company issued 84,188 shares of common stock as a result of the vesting of RSAs during the three month period ended March 31, 2017. See Note 12 for additional information regarding RSA activity.
Shares of common stock issued as a result of stock option exercises and realized gross proceeds during the three month period ended March 31, 2018 were 50,000 and $22,000, respectively. Shares of common stock issued as a result of stock option exercises and realized gross proceeds during the three month period March 31, 2017 were 30,000 and $17,100, respectively, from the exercise of such stock options. See Note 12 for additional information regarding the stock incentive plans.
12. | Stock Award Programs |
The Company’s stock incentive plan is administered by the Compensation Committee and authorizes the grant or award of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, restricted stock awards, stock appreciation rights, dividend equivalent rights, performance unit awards and phantom shares. The Company issues new shares of common stock upon the exercise of stock options. Any shares associated with options forfeited are added back to the number of shares that underlie stock options to be granted under the stock incentive plan. The Company has issued restricted stock awards and non-qualified stock option awards as described below.
Valuation of Stock Awards
The Company estimates the fair value of nonqualified stock awards using a Black-Scholes Option Pricing model (“Black-Scholes model”). The fair value of each stock award is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model (“Black-Scholes model”), which requires an assumption of dividend yield, risk free interest rates, volatility, forfeiture rates and expected option life. The risk-free interest rates are based on the U.S. Treasury yield for a period consistent with the expected term of the option in effect at the time of the grant. Expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of our common stock over the expected option term. The expected term of options granted is based on analyses of historical employee termination rates and option exercises.
The Company records the fair value of all restricted stock awards based on the grant date fair value and amortizes stock compensation on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Restricted stock award shares are issued when granted and included in the total number of common shares issued but not included in total common shares outstanding until the vesting requirements have been met. As of March 31, 2018, there were 980,851 shares of restricted stock included in shares issued and none included in shares outstanding as the vesting requirements have not been met.

Mr. Komar received less than 125,000 shares vested because he elected to have 40,812 of such shares withheld in satisfaction of the corresponding tax liability of approximately $46,000. The Company's payment of this tax liability was recorded as a cash flow from financing activity on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
(4) There were no RSAs that were cancelled or expired during the three month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

(1) During the three month period ended March 31, 2018, there were no grants, cancellations, or vesting of non-qualified stock options.
(2) During the three month period ended March 31, 2017, the Company granted 600,000 NQSOs to its former Chief Executive Officer and valued the award using a Black-Scholes model with the following valuation inputs: 3-year vesting period, 7-year option term, a risk free rate of 2.1%, volatility of 68.2%, no assumed dividend yield, and a forfeiture rate estimate of 4.6%. On June 30, 2017, in connection with resignation of our former Chief Executive Officer the Board of Directors cancelled all unvested NQSOs.
(3) During the three month period ended March 31, 2017, there were 70,000 stock options, 60,000 of which were unvested and were cancelled due to termination of employment and the remainder expired unexercised at the end of the option term.
(4) The total intrinsic value of stock options exercised during the three month ended March 31, 2018 was approximately $5,500.
The weighted-average remaining contractual life of the non-qualified stock options outstanding, exercisable, and vested and expected to vest as of March 31, 2018 were 3.8 years, 3.8 years and 3.5 years, respectively.
There was no intrinsic value associated with options outstanding, exercisable and expected to vest as of March 31, 2018 as the stock price was below the lowest option exercise price. Aggregate intrinsic value represents total pretax intrinsic value (the difference between WidePoint’s closing stock price on March 31, 2018 and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money options) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on March 31, 2018. The intrinsic value will change based on the fair market value of WidePoint’s stock.

Business Overview
We are a leading provider of trusted mobility solutions (TM2) to the government and commercial sectors. We offer our TM2 solutions through a flexible managed services model which includes both a scalable and comprehensive set of functional capabilities that can be used by any customer to meet most of the common functional, technical and security requirements for mobility management. Our TM2 solutions were designed and implemented with flexibility in mind such that it can accommodate a large variety of customer requirements through simple configuration settings rather than through costly software development. The flexibility of our TM2 solutions enables our customers to be able to quickly expand their mobility capabilities and contract for their mobility management requirements. Our TM2 solutions are hosted and accessible on-demand through a secure proprietary portal that provides our customers with the ability to manage, analyze and protect their valuable communications assets, and deploy federal government compliant identity management solutions that provide secured virtual and physical access to restricted environments.
Revenue Mix
Our revenue mix may fluctuate due to customer driven factors including: i) timing of technology and accessory refresh requirements from our customers; ii) onboarding of new customers that require carrier services; iii) subsequent decreases in carrier services as we optimize their data and voice usage; iv) delays in delivering products or services; and v) changes in control or leadership of our customers that lengthens our sales cycle, changes in laws or funding, among other circumstances that may unexpectedly change the revenue earned and/or duration of our services. As a result our revenue could vary by quarter.
For additional information related to our business operations see the description of our business set forth in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 filed with the SEC on March 21, 2018.
Strategic Focus and Goals
Our primary strategic focus and goals are centered on improving our short and long term financial performance by growing our top line revenue by building a strong and steady pipeline of profitable federal and commercial enterprise TM2 opportunities. We are using a variety of strategies to grow our sales pipeline using our integrated business development team, teaming with large system integrators on large commercial opportunities and seeking out preferred provider status with other prospective customers with global operations. We believe we are making good progress towards growing a strong pipeline of TM2 opportunities.
A secondary strategic focus is to improve our overall financial performance by continuing to evaluate our service delivery process and efficiently use our internal resources to delivery those solutions. We are evaluating additional workflow automation processes to speed up our service delivery and enable us to better scale our solution delivery without adding a significant amount of additional labor with each new business opportunity.
Longer-term, we are reviewing our intellectual property portfolio and may seek to acquire software assets and new customer relationships in support of expanding our information technology based proprietary solutions and customer reach. Acquisitions of customers and/or software assets, coupled with our longer term initiatives to further consolidate, streamline, and focus on enhancing our core TM2 driven solutions may allow us to further differentiate our capabilities to our customers.
The execution of our strategy could require a significant amount of time, expertise and expense by key subject matter experts within our organization. There is also no guarantee that we will be able to successfully execute our strategy or return to profitability in a timely fashion or at all. There may also be a requirement to raise additional capital to fund our strategic plans, which may be on unfavorable terms to us. However, management firmly believes that a focused execution of our short and longer term strategies will put us on the path towards returning to generating positive earnings and cash flow, while also allowing the Company to build critical mass in the future with a more sustainable and improved competitive market position.

Results of Operations
Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 as Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2017
Revenues. Revenues for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 were approximately $20.1 million, an increase of approximately $1.5 million (or 8%), as compared to approximately $18.6 million in 2017. Our mix of revenues for the periods presented is set forth below:

$ | 20,079,619 | $ | 18,612,239 | $ | 1,467,380 |
Carrier services increased due to additional task orders issued under our U.S. Department of Homeland Security (“DHS”) blanket purchase agreement (“BPA”) for carrier services as compared to the same period last year. We are continuing to move away from selling low margin carrier services so that we can refocus our internal resources on delivering higher margin services. Managed services revenue increased due to a large reselling transaction to the US Airforce for approximately $1.8 million, partially offset by lower billable hourly services due to completion of commercial consulting projects and to a lesser extent certain federal government projects, as compared to last year.
Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 was approximately $16.5 million (or 82% of revenues), as compared to approximately $15.2 million (or 82% of revenues) in 2017. The dollar increase was driven by a large reselling transaction. Our cost of revenues may continue to fluctuate as we continue to shift away from sales of low margin carrier services.
Gross Profit. Gross profit for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 was approximately $3.6 million (or 18% of revenues), as compared to approximately $3.4 million (or 18% of revenues) in 2017. The dollar increase in gross profit was largely related to labor savings realized as a result of restructuring actions taken during fiscal 2017. We are evaluating additional opportunities to streamline of service delivery model that could further reduce costs, allow us to better scale our delivery and improve our gross profit.
Sales and Marketing. Sales and marketing expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 was approximately $0.5 million (or 3% of revenues), as compared to approximately $0.5 million (or 3% of revenues) in 2017. Sales and marketing costs were flat compared to last year as we redeployed our resources into better sales lead generation and digital marketing strategies to increase our brand and solution awareness of our TM2 framework in our target markets. We are focused on expanding our full set of products and services to our existing customers, actively pursuing customer and partner referrals and teaming with larger companies to provide them with additional depth and expertise to bid on larger opportunities.
General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 were approximately $3.4 million (or 17% of revenues), as compared to approximately $3.8 million (or 21% of revenues) in 2017. The decrease in general and administrative cost is due to fiscal 2017 cost reductions initiatives executed that streamlined senior management and middle management.
25
Product Development. During the three month period ended March 31, 2018 the Company incurred and capitalized approximately $70,900 in product development costs related to our next generation TDI Optimiser™ application. During the three month period ended March 31, 2017 the Company recognized product development costs of approximately $151,400 (or 1% of revenues), which excluded capitalized internally developed software costs of approximately $13,800. The Company has a mature set of products and services that do not require significant ongoing development activities. The Company develops plans and schedules for development of significant functional enhancements to incorporate future technology solutions, adapt to changes in customer preferences and operational requirements and/or changes in security requirements that affect our product solution and/or our ability to meet or exceed our contractual requirements. As a result, there could be periods of time where our level of internal and external spending on product development may not be significant.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 was approximately $97,400 as compared to approximately $71,700 in 2017. The increase in depreciation and amortization reflects significant increases in our depreciable asset base related to capital leases of approximately $360,000 recognized during the last quarter of 2017.
Interest Income. Interest income for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 was approximately $3,000, as compared to approximately $7,000 in 2017. The decrease was due to lower amounts of cash and cash equivalents being held in interest bearing accounts and the length of time those deposits were earning interest throughout the quarter compared to 2017.
Interest Expense. Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was approximately $25,900 as compared to approximately $9,600 in 2017. The increase in interest expense was due to higher debt related to capital leases and line of credit advances and the length of time such advances were outstanding.
Other Income (Expense). Other expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 was less than $1,000 as compared to other income of $4,200 in 2017. Other expense did not include any significant items.
Income Taxes. Income tax expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 was approximately $6,200, as compared to an income tax benefit of approximately $18,800 in 2017. The increase in income tax expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 is attributable to taxes payable on foreign earnings in the Republic of Ireland.
Net Loss. As a result of the cumulative factors annotated above, the net loss for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 was approximately $462,200, as compared to approximately $1.2 million in the same period last year.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have, since inception, financed operations and capital expenditures through the sale of stock, seller notes in connection with acquisitions, convertible notes, convertible exchangeable debentures, senior secured loans and the proceeds from the exercise of the warrants related to a convertible exchangeable debenture. Our immediate sources of liquidity include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, unbilled receivables and access to a working capital credit facility with Access National Bank for up to $5.0 million.
At March 31, 2018, our net working capital was approximately $2.6 million as compared to $2.5 million at December 31, 2017. The increase in net working capital was primarily due to improved cash collections and better cash management during the first quarter of 2018. We must successfully execute our strategic goals and tactically execute our cost savings and new revenue initiatives as described above in order to generate positive cash flows, improve our liquidity position and meet our minimum operating requirements. We will continue to identify additional opportunities for cost savings that can further reduce our fixed operating costs and/or provide us better flexibility to match our cost structure with our revenue streams. We may need to raise additional capital to fund major growth initiatives and/or acquisitions and there can be no assurance that additional capital will be available on acceptable terms or at all.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Cash provided by operating activities provides an indication of our ability to generate sufficient cash flow from our recurring business activities. Our single largest cash operating expenses is the cost of labor and company sponsored healthcare benefit programs. Our second largest cash operating expense is our facility costs and related technology communication costs to support delivery of our services to our customers. We lease most of our facilities under non-cancellable long term contracts that may limit our ability to reduce fixed infrastructure costs in the short term. Any changes to our fixed labor and/or infrastructure costs may require a significant amount of time to take effect depending on the nature of the change made and cash payments to terminate any agreements that have not yet expired. We experience temporary collection timing differences from time to time due to customer invoice processing delays that are often beyond our control.
For the three months ended March 31, 2018, net cash provided by operations was approximately $2.3 million driven by improved collections of accounts receivable.
For the three months ended March 31, 2017, cash used in operations was activities was approximately $2.0 million driven by current year operating losses and temporary collection timing differences.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities provides an indication of our long term infrastructure investments. We maintain our own technology infrastructure and may need to make additional purchases of computer hardware, software and other fixed infrastructure assets to ensure our environment is properly maintained and can support our customer obligations. We typically fund purchases of long term infrastructure assets with available cash or capital lease financing agreements.
For the three months ended March 31, 2018, cash used in investing activities was approximately $84,600 and consisted computer hardware and software purchases and capitalized internally developed software costs related to our TDI Optimiser™ solutions.
For the three months ended March 31, 2017, cash used in investing activities was approximately $40,200 and consisted of computer hardware and software purchases and capitalized internally developed software costs related to our TDI Optimiser™ solutions, partially offset by proceeds received from the disposal of leased automobiles.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Cash used in financing activities provides an indication of our debt financing and proceeds from capital raise transactions and stock option exercises.
For the three months ended March 31, 2018, cash used in financing activities was approximately $4,050 and reflects scheduled capital lease payments of approximately $26,000, partially offset by proceeds of approximately $22,000 from the exercise of stock options. The Company was advanced and repaid approximately $8.4 million in line of credit advances.
For the three months ended March 31, 2017, cash used in financing activities was approximately $124,200 primarily reflecting scheduled term debt repayments of approximately $95,500, restricted stock award tax liability of approximately $46,000, partially offset by proceeds from the exercise of stock options. The Company was advanced and repaid approximately $2.3 million in line of credit advances during the quarter.
Net Effect of Exchange Rate on Cash and Equivalents
For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the net effect of exchange rate changes increased the translated value of our foreign cash balances due to appreciation of the Euro relative to the US dollar.
