NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2023

(Unaudited)

Note 1 - Business Description and Significant Accounting Policies

Business Description

Oblong, Inc. (“Oblong” or “we” or “us” or the “Company”) was formed as a Delaware corporation in May 2000 and is a provider of patented multi-stream collaboration technologies and managed services for video collaboration and network applications.

Basis of Presentation

The Company's fiscal year ends on December 31 of each calendar year. The accompanying interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are unaudited and have been prepared on substantially the same basis as our annual Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. In the opinion of the Company's management, these interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement of our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

The December 31, 2022 year-end Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet data in this document was derived from audited consolidated financial statements. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q do not include all disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022 and notes thereto included in the Company's fiscal 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 21, 2023 (the “2022 10-K”).

The results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods included in these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period or the entire fiscal year.

Principles of Consolidation

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Oblong and our 100%-owned subsidiaries (i) GP Communications, LLC (“GP Communications”), whose business function is to provide interstate telecommunications services for regulatory purposes, and (ii) Oblong Industries, Inc. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The U.S. Dollar is the functional currency for all subsidiaries.

Segments

The Company currently operates in two segments: (1) “Collaboration Products” which represents the business surrounding our Mezzanine™ product offerings, and (2) “Managed Services” which represents the business surrounding managed services for video collaboration and network solutions. See Note 10 - Segment Reporting for further discussion.

Use of Estimates

Preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual amounts could differ from the estimates made. We continually evaluate estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements for reasonableness. Appropriate adjustments, if any, to the estimates used are made prospectively based upon such periodic evaluation. The significant areas of estimation include determining the allowance for doubtful accounts, the estimated lives and recoverability

-6-

of intangible assets, the inputs used in the valuation of intangible assets in connection with our impairment test, and the inputs used in the fair value of equity-based awards.

Significant Accounting Policies

The significant accounting policies used in preparation of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are disclosed in our 2022 10-K, and there have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2016 the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326),” which was subsequently amended in February 2020 by ASU 2020-02, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326) and Leases (Topic 842).” The amendments introduce an impairment model that is based on expected credit losses, rather than incurred losses, to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments (e.g., loans and held-to-maturity securities), including certain off-balance sheet financial instruments (e.g., loan commitments). The expected credit losses should consider historical information, current information, and reasonable and supportable forecasts, including estimates of prepayments, over the contractual term. Financial instruments with similar risk characteristics may be grouped together when estimating expected credit losses. The update was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted the new guidance, as of January 1, 2023, and it did not have a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Note 2 - Liquidity and Going Concern Uncertainty

As of March 31, 2023, we had $3,714,000 in cash and working capital of $3,335,000. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, we incurred a net loss of $1,219,000 and used $844,000 of net cash in operating activities.

Equity Private Placement

On March 30, 2023, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain accredited investors (the “Investors”), pursuant to which we issued and sold, in a private placement transaction (the “Private Placement”), (i) 6,550 shares (the “Preferred Shares”) of our newly designated Series F convertible preferred stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Series F Preferred Stock”), initially convertible into up to 3,830,409 shares of our Common Stock, (ii) preferred warrants (“Preferred Warrants”) to acquire 32,750 shares of Series F Preferred Stock, and (iii) common warrants (“Common Warrants” and with the Preferred Warrants the “Investor Warrants”) to acquire up to 3,830,413 shares of Common Stock. The terms of the Series F Preferred Stock are as set forward in the Certificate of Designations of Series F Preferred Stock of Oblong, Inc. (the “Certificate of Designations”), which was filed and became effective with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on March 31, 2023. The Private Placement closed on March 31, 2023. Please see the discussion in Note 6 - Capital Stock for further details on the Common Warrants and Note 7 - Preferred Stock for further discussion on the Series F Preferred Stock and Preferred Warrants.

The aggregate gross proceeds of the Private Placement are expected to be $6,386,000. All of the Preferred Shares and Investor Warrants were issued at the Closing, but part of the purchase price equivalent to $4,000,000 was placed into an escrow account with American Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Escrow”), to be released upon our obtaining stockholder approval permitting the issuance of more than 19.99% of our outstanding shares of Common Stock at less than the Minimum Price (as defined under the Nasdaq Rules) in accordance with Nasdaq listing standards and as otherwise may be required (the “Stockholder Approval”). The Company expects to use the net proceeds from the Private Placement and the proceeds, if any, from the exercise of the Investor Warrants for general corporate purposes and potential strategic alternatives. We have not, nor has anyone on our behalf, initiated any substantive discussions directly or indirectly with any strategic alternatives partner.

In connection to the Private Placement, pursuant to an engagement letter dated March 30, 2023 (the “Engagement Letter”), between the Company and Dawson James Securities, Inc. (the “Placement Agent”), the Company agreed to (i) pay the Placement Agent a cash fee equal to 8% of the aggregate gross proceeds raised in the Private Placement, and (ii) grant to the Placement Agent warrants (the “Placement Agent Warrants”) to purchase 306,433 shares of Common Stock at an initial exercise price of $1.71 per share. Additionally, we agreed to reimburse the Placement Agent for certain expenses incurred in connection with the Private Placement and to pay certain contingent fees upon the occurrence of specified future events. Please see the discussion in Note 6 - Capital Stock for further details on the Placement Agent Warrants.

-7-

Future Capital Requirements and Going Concern

Our capital requirements in the future will continue to depend on numerous factors, including the potential release of the Escrow, the amount of revenue the Company is able to generate, customer renewal rates and the timing of collection of outstanding accounts receivable, in each case particularly as it relates to the Company’s major customers, the expense to deliver services, expense for sales and marketing, and expense for research and development. The Company believes that, in the event the Escrow is not released, based on its current projection of revenue, expenses, and cash flows, it will not have sufficient resources to fund its operations for the next twelve months following the filing of this Report. We believe additional capital will be required to fund operations and provide growth capital including investments in technology, product development and sales and marketing. To access capital to fund operations or provide growth capital, we will need to raise capital in one or more debt and/or equity offerings. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising necessary capital or that any such offering will be on terms acceptable to the Company. If we are unable to raise additional capital that may be needed on terms acceptable to us, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company. The factors discussed above raise substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not include any adjustments that might result from these uncertainties.

Note 3 - Intangible Assets and Goodwill

Intangioble Assets

The following table presents the components of net intangible assets for our Collaboration Products reporting segment (in thousands):


	As of March 31, 2023						As of December 31, 2022
	Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization		Net Carrying Amount		Gross Carrying Amount		Accumulated Amortization		Net Carrying Amount




Developed technology	$	486	$	(121)	$	365	$	486	$	(61)	$	425
Trade names	204		(51)		153		204		(25)		179

Total	$	690	$	(172)	$	518	$	690	$	(86)	$	604

At each reporting period, we determine if there was a triggering event that may result in an impairment of our intangible assets. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we considered the declines in revenue for the Collaboration Products reporting segment to be a triggering event for an impairment test of intangible assets for this segment. Based on the fair value of the asset group, which was determined using a market approach, no impairment charges were recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Related amortization expense was $86,000 and $580,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Amortization expense for each of the next five succeeding years will be as follows (in thousands):


Remainder of 2023	$	260
2024	258



Total	$	518

Goodwill

During 2022, Goodwill was written down to zero with an impairment charge of $1,138,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2022, and a subsequent impairment charge of $6,229,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2022.

We currently occupy the warehouse space in City of Industry; however, we do not occupy any of the office space in Los Angeles.

Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock. As of March 31, 2023, we had 1,983,250 designated shares of preferred stock and 6,550 shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding.

-11-

The Series F Preferred Shares are convertible into fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Company’s Common Stock at the election of the holder at any time at an initial conversion price of $1.71 (the “Conversion Price”). The holders of the Series F Preferred Shares may also elect to convert their shares at an alternative conversion price equal to the lower of (i) 80% of the applicable Conversion Price as in effect on the date of the conversion, (ii) 80% of the closing price on the trading day immediately preceding the delivery of the conversion notice, and (iii) the greater of (a) the Floor Price (as defined in the Certificate of Designations) and (b) the quotient of (x) the sum of the five lowest Closing Bid Prices (as defined in the Certificate of Designations) for trading days in the 30 consecutive trading day period ending and including the trading day immediately preceding the delivery of the applicable Conversion Notice, divided by (y) five, provided that that such price may not be lower than the Minimum Price (as defined under the Nasdaq Rules) prior to obtaining Stockholder Approval for the issuance. The Conversion Price is subject to customary adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, stock combination recapitalization, or other similar transactions involving the Common Stock, and subject to price-based adjustment, on a full ratchet basis, in the event of any issuances of our common stock, or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock, at a price below the then-applicable Conversion Price (subject to certain exceptions).

Under the Certificate of Designations, the Series F Preferred Shares have an initial stated value of $1,000 per share (the “Stated Value”). The holders of the Series F Preferred Shares are entitled to dividends of 9% per annum, which will be payable in arrears quarterly. Accrued dividends may be paid, at our option, in cash and if not paid, shall increase the stated value of the Series F Preferred Shares. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Triggering Event (as defined in the Certificate of Designations), the Series F Preferred Shares will accrue dividends at the rate of 20% per annum (the “Default Rate”). The Series F Preferred Shares have no voting rights, other than with respect to certain matters affecting the rights of the Series F Preferred Shares. On matters with respect to which the holders of the Series F Preferred Shares have a right to vote, holders of the Preferred Shares will have voting rights on an as-converted basis, provided that until receipt of Stockholder Approval, any adjustment to the Conversion Price shall not cause the Conversion Price for voting purposes to be less than the Minimum Price (as defined in Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d)).

Our ability to settle conversions is subject to certain limitations set forth in the Certificate of Designations, including a limit on the number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued until the time that the Stockholder Approval is obtained permitting the issuance of more than 19.99% of our outstanding shares of Common Stock in accordance with Nasdaq listing standards. We agreed to seek Stockholder Approval of these matters at a meeting to be held no later than May 31, 2023. Further, the Certificate of Designations contains a certain beneficial ownership limitation after giving effect to the issuance of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series F Preferred Shares.

The Certificate of Designations includes certain Triggering Events (as defined in the Certificate of Designations), including, among other things, (i) the failure to file and maintain an effective registration statement covering the sale of the holder’s securities registrable pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, (ii) the failure to pay any amounts due to the holders of the Series F Preferred Shares when due, and (iii) if Peter Holst ceases to be the chief executive officer of the Company other than because of his death, and a qualified replacement, reasonably acceptable to a majority of the holders of the Series F Preferred Shares, is not appointed within thirty (30) business days. In connection with a Triggering Event, the Default Rate is triggered. The Default Rate is also triggered in the event that we are unable, from the failure to obtain the Stockholder Approval prior to May 31, 2023 (the “Approval Date”), to issue shares of Common Stock in connection with a conversion of the Series F Preferred Stock after the Approval Date. We are subject to certain affirmative and negative covenants regarding the incurrence of indebtedness, acquisition transactions, the existence of liens, the repayment of indebtedness, the payment of cash in respect of dividends (other than dividends pursuant to the Certificate of Designations), maintenance of properties and the transfer of assets, among other matters.

Series F Preferred Stock Warrants

The Preferred Warrants are exercisable for Series F Preferred Shares at an exercise price of $975. The exercise price is subject to customary adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, stock combination recapitalizations or other similar transactions involving the Common Stock. The Preferred Warrants expire three years from the date of issuance and are exercisable for cash. For each Preferred Warrant exercised, the Investors shall receive Common Warrants to purchase a number of shares of Common Stock equal to 100% of the number of shares of Common Stock the Investors would receive if the Series F Preferred Shares issuable upon exercise of such Warrant were converted at the applicable Conversion Price. The fair value of the Preferred Warrants was recorded within additional paid-in capital during the three months ended March 31, 2023.

The remaining unrecognized stock-based compensation expense for options as of March 31, 2023 is $154,000, which will be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.25 years.

-13-

Restricted Stock Awards

As of March 31, 2023, there were 42 unvested restricted stock awards outstanding, with a weighted average grant date price of $235.87. The awards were issued in 2014 and vest over the lesser of ten years, a change in control, or separation from the company. Due to the variability of the vesting, the expense was amortized over an average service period of five years, therefore, there is no unrecognized stock-based compensation expense for restricted stock awards as of March 31, 2023.

Restricted Stock Units

As of March 31, 2023, there were no unvested restricted stock units (“RSUs”) outstanding. As of March 31, 2023, 1,929 vested RSUs remain outstanding as shares of common stock have not yet been delivered for these units in accordance with the terms of the RSUs.

There was no stock compensation expense related to RSUs for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. There was no remaining unrecognized stock-based compensation expense for RSUs as of March 31, 2023.

On April 18, 2023, 177,564 RSUs were granted to certain board members. These RSUs vested immediately upon issuance.

Note 9 - Net Loss Per Share

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding does not include any potentially dilutive securities or unvested restricted stock. Unvested restricted stock, although classified as issued and outstanding at March 31, 2023 and 2022, is considered contingently returnable until the restrictions lapse and will not be included in the basic net loss per share calculation until the shares are vested. Unvested restricted stock does not contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends and dividend equivalents. Unvested RSUs are not included in calculations of basic net loss per share, as they are not considered issued and outstanding at time of grant.

Diluted net loss per share is computed by giving effect to all potential shares of common stock, including stock options, preferred stock, RSUs, and unvested restricted stock, to the extent they are dilutive. For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, all such common stock equivalents have been excluded from diluted net loss per share as the effect to net loss per share would be anti-dilutive (due to the net loss).

The following table sets forth the computation of the Company’s basic and diluted net loss per share (in thousands, except per share data):


	Three Months Ended March 31,

COVID-19

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) announced that infections of the novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) had become pandemic, and on March 13, 2020, the U.S. President announced a National Emergency relating to the disease. In May 2023, the WHO declared COVID-19 over as a global health emergency. Customers generally use our Mezzanine™ products in traditional office and operating center environments such as conference rooms or other presentation

spaces. Revenue declines for our Collaboration Products business are primarily attributable to the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic on our existing and target customers as they continue to evaluate behavioral changes in how and when employees choose to work from traditional office environments, resulting in delayed buying decisions for our Collaboration Products. Continuation of the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, could cause further disruptions to our operations and the operations of our customers, suppliers and logistics partners and could significantly adversely affect our near-term and long-term revenues, earnings, liquidity and cash flows.
