BSQUARE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Description of Business
BSQUARE Corporation (“Bsquare,” “we,” “us” and “our”) builds technology that is powering the next generation of connected devices and intelligent systems. We help companies realize the promise of the Internet of Things ("IoT") through the development of devices and systems that are cloud-enabled, share data seamlessly, facilitate distributed learning and control, and operate securely at scale. We believe that IoT-enabled systems can not only deliver value to our customers but also help people make better use of the resources of our planet. Bsquare's suite of services and software components create new revenue streams and operating models for our customers while providing opportunities for lowering costs and improving operations.
Since our founding in 1994, Bsquare has been at the intersection of hardware and software. Today that intersection is the "edge" where cloud-enabled devices connect to create intelligent systems that share data, facilitate distributed control and machine learning, and operate securely at scale. We believe that our expertise, products, and services are applicable in customer projects and initiatives ranging from device hardware, to the operating system, to IoT software solutions, and cloud services that make intelligent systems possible.
Our business has largely been focused on providing software solutions (including reselling software from Microsoft) and related engineering services to businesses that develop, market and sell dedicated-purpose standalone intelligent systems. Examples of dedicated-purpose standalone intelligent systems include smart, connected computing devices such as point-of-sale terminals, kiosks, tablets and handheld devices, as well as smart vending machines, ATM machines, digital signs, smart phones, set-top boxes and in-vehicle telematics and entertainment devices.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Bsquare have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reporting and include the accounts of Bsquare and our wholly owned subsidiaries. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In management’s opinion, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all material adjustments, all of which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary to present fairly our financial position as of June 30, 2021 and our operating results and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. The accompanying financial information as of December 31, 2020 is derived from our audited financial statements as of that date.
These unaudited condensed financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, as filed with the SEC on March 18, 2021.
Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Bsquare and our wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Revision of prior period financial statements
In connection with the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements, we identified an immaterial error related to the recognition of certain revenues in our Edge to Cloud segment in the third quarter of 2019 that had a rollforward effect on consolidated equity and deferred revenue in all quarterly and annual periods through the first quarter of fiscal year 2021. In accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 99, “Materiality,” and SAB No. 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements,” we evaluated the error and determined that the related impact was not material to our financial statements for any prior annual or interim period, but that correcting the cumulative impact of the error would be material to our results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Accordingly, we have revised our consolidated balance sheets and statements of shareholder’s equity as of September 31, 2019, December 31, 2019, and December 31, 2020 and condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss and cash flows for the year-ended December 31, 2019 and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019. A summary of revisions to certain previously reported financial information presented herein for comparative purposes is included in Note 12 – Revision of Prior Period Financial Statements.
Use of estimates
Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Examples include provisions for bad debts and income taxes, estimates of progress on professional engineering service arrangements, bonus accruals, useful lives of intangible assets and property and equipment, fair values of stock-based awards, and assumptions used to determine the net present value of operating lease liabilities, among other estimates and assumptions. Actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions.
Income (loss) per share
We compute basic income (loss) per share using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. We consider restricted stock units as outstanding shares of common stock and include them in the computation of basic loss per share only when vested. We compute diluted loss per share using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding and common stock equivalent shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method. We exclude common stock equivalent shares from the computation if their effect is anti-dilutive.
The following potentially dilutive weighted shares were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive for the periods presented:

Contract balances
We receive payments from customers based upon contractual billing schedules; accounts receivable is recorded when the right to consideration becomes unconditional. Contract assets include amounts related to our contractual right to consideration for completed performance obligations not yet invoiced. Contract liabilities, presented as deferred revenue on our condensed consolidated balance sheets, include payments received in advance of performance under the contract and are realized when the associated revenue is recognized. We had
Significant changes in the contract assets and the deferred revenue balances during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 were as follows:

Practical expedients and exemptions
We generally expense sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period would have been less than one year. We record these costs within selling, general and administrative expenses.
When applicable and appropriate, the Company utilizes the ‘as-invoiced’ practical expedient which permits revenue recognition upon invoicing.

Total cash and cash equivalents |
4. Fair Value Measurements
We measure our cash equivalents and restricted cash at fair value. Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. A three-tier fair value hierarchy is established as a basis for considering such assumptions and for inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:
| Level 1: | Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
| Level 2: | Directly or indirectly observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs used in models or other valuation methodologies. |
| Level 3: | Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data. The inputs require significant management judgment or estimation. |
We classify our cash equivalents and restricted cash within Level 1 or Level 2 because our cash equivalents and restricted cash are valued using quoted market prices or alternative pricing sources and models utilizing market observable inputs.
Assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 are summarized below (in thousands):

6. Leases
We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. On our balance sheet, our office leases are included in right-of-use (“ROU”) lease asset, net and related lease liabilities are included in operating lease and operating lease, long-term. We determined that we do not currently have any leases that we are required to classify as finance leases.
ROU assets represent our right to use the underlying assets for the lease term and operating lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease agreements. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the term of the lease. For leases that do not provide an implicit rate, we use an incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the commencement date to determine the present value of lease payments. We use the implicit rate in the lease when readily determinable. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
In November 2020, we renewed the lease for our office facility in the UK. The term of the lease is
Our leases have remaining terms of
to years. The only leases that contain renewal options are for office space leases at our Seattle and Trowbridge locations. In the fourth quarter of 2019, we made the decision not to renew our Bellevue lease, which expired at the end of May 2020, and we made the decision not to renew our Taiwan lease, exiting that facility in February 2020. Because of changes in our business, we are not able to determine with reasonable certainty whether we will renew our Seattle lease. As a result, we have not considered renewal options when recording ROU assets, lease liabilities or lease expense.
The following tables present the components of our lease expense and supplemental cash flow information related to our leases for the six months ended June 30, 2021 (in thousands):

7. Shareholders’ Equity
Equity Compensation Plans
We have a stock plan (the “Stock Plan”) and an inducement stock plan for newly hired employees (together with the Stock Plan, the “Plans”). Under the Plans, stock options to purchase shares of our common stock may be granted with a fixed exercise price that is equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. These options have a term of up to
Stock-Based Compensation
The estimated fair value of stock-based awards is recognized as compensation expense over the vesting period of the award, net of estimated forfeitures. We estimate forfeitures based on historical experience and expected future activities. The fair value of RSUs is determined based on the number of shares granted and the quoted price of our common stock on the date of grant. The fair value of stock option awards is estimated at the grant date based on the fair value of each vesting tranche as calculated by the Black-Scholes-Merton (“BSM”) option-pricing model. The BSM model requires various highly judgmental assumptions including expected volatility and option life. If any of the assumptions used in the BSM model change significantly, stock-based compensation expense may differ materially in the future from that recorded in the current period. The fair values of our stock option grants and RSUs were estimated with the following weighted average assumptions:

8. Commitments and Contingencies
Lease and rent obligations
Our commitments include obligations outstanding under operating leases, which expire through 2027. We have lease commitments for office space in Seattle, Washington and Trowbridge, UK. See Note 6 - Leases.
Loss Contingencies
From time to time, we are subject to legal proceedings, claims, and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business including tax assessments. We defend ourselves vigorously against any such claims. When (i) it is probable that an asset has been impaired or a liability has been incurred and (ii) the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated, we record the estimated loss. We provide disclosure in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for loss contingencies that do not meet both conditions if there is a reasonable possibility that a loss may have been incurred that would be material to the financial statements. Significant judgment is required to determine the probability that a liability has been incurred and whether such liability is reasonably estimable. We base accruals made on the best information available at the time, which can be highly subjective. As of June 30, 2021, we have not recorded any loss contingency accruals.
9. Information about Geographic Areas and Operating Segments
Our chief operating decision-makers (i.e. our Chief Executive Officer and certain direct reports) review financial information presented on a consolidated basis, accompanied by disaggregated information for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance. There are no segment managers who are held accountable by our chief operating decision-makers, or anyone else, for operations, operating results, or planning for levels or components below the consolidated unit level. We operate within a single industry segment of computer software and services.

Significant Supplier
We are authorized to sell Windows IoT operating systems in Canada, the United States, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Mexico, Peru, Venezuela, Puerto Rico, Columbia, and several Caribbean countries. Our distribution agreement for sales of Windows IoT operating systems in the European Union (“E.U.”), the European Free Trade Association, Turkey and Africa, expired on June 30, 2019 and was not renewed thereafter.
We have also entered into Original Equipment Manufacturer Distribution Agreements ("ODAs") with Microsoft pursuant to which we are licensed to sell Microsoft Windows Mobile operating systems to customers in North America, South America, Central America (excluding Cuba), Japan, Taiwan, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. The ODAs to sell Windows Mobile operating systems are effective through April 30, 2022.
There is no automatic renewal provision in any of these agreements, and these agreements can be terminated unilaterally by Microsoft at any time.
The majority of our revenue continues to be derived from reselling Microsoft Windows Embedded and IoT operating system software to device makers. The sale of Microsoft operating systems has historically accounted for substantially all of our Partner Solutions revenue.
Microsoft currently offers a distributor incentives program through which we earn rebates pursuant to predefined objectives related to sales of Microsoft Windows IoT operating systems. In accordance with program rules, we allocate a portion of the incentive earnings to reduce cost of revenue with the remaining portion utilized to offset qualified marketing expenses in the period the expenditures are claimed and approved. During the second quarter of 2020 the program allocation was changed by Microsoft to a 50/50 split between the two components.
Under this rebate program, we recorded rebate credits as follows (in thousands):

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes. Some statements and information contained in this discussion are not historical facts but are forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). In some cases, readers can identify forward- looking statements by terms such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “intend,” “forecast,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential,” “continue,” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology, which when used are meant to signify the statement as forward-looking. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements about our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions and other statements that are not historical facts. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and situations that are difficult to predict and that may cause our own, or our industry’s actual results, to be materially different from the future results that are expressed or implied by these statements. Accordingly, actual results may differ materially from those anticipated or expressed in such statements as a result of a variety of factors, including those discussed in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in in Item 1A of Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 as well as similar discussions contained in our periodic reports, and other documents or filings and documents that we may from time to time file or furnish with the SEC. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Overview
Bsquare is a software and services company that designs, configures, and deploys technologies that solve difficult problems for manufacturers and operators of connected devices. Our customers choose Bsquare to help realize the promise of the Internet of Things (IoT) to transform their businesses. Our products include software that connects devices to create intelligent systems that are cloud-enabled, contribute critical data, and facilitate distributed control and decision making. Our services include 24/7 IoT operations that allow our customers to focus on their businesses while we take care of security, monitoring, and general technology updates. The opportunity to help companies explore and capture the value of IoT is attractive and growing. In the last two years alone, we helped hundreds of companies deploy and manage over two million devices. We operate large IoT systems for our customers with device fleets that range in size and complexity. We believe we offer a unique combination of expertise in device-level solutions, embedded operating systems, and IoT services and software that is valued by a global customer base, from start-ups to Fortune 100 companies, across a diverse set of industries.
In the first half of 2021, we continued our ongoing initiatives to strategically build our business and are pursuing business opportunities at the intersection of our two business segments. In the Partner Solutions segment, customers who have been purchasing Operating System (OS) software from us are recognizing that their products, essentially interconnected devices and associated software, cannot be sold, installed, and then forgotten. For these customers, we offer software-based solutions that address the operational headaches caused by this relatively new and increasingly complex business requirement. In the Edge to Cloud segment, customers are relying on Bsquare for a complete solution, ranging from OS configuration to 24/7 support, dev/ops, and cloud management – the services that are critical when a customer puts an IoT solution into production. Experience with those customers has shown that Bsquare’s role can last well beyond the development phase and continue into their on-going operations. Our software and edge expertise combined with our position as a supply chain partner makes us uniquely suited to address these complex requirements, in both business segments.
Revenue
The COVID-19 pandemic, including its impact on the microchip supply chain, continues to affect our Partner Solutions customer ordering patterns and has caused ongoing disruptions and revenue variability in the Partner Solutions segment. Decreases in segment revenue that began in the second quarter of 2020 persisted through the first quarter of 2021. Second quarter 2021 revenue improved over first quarter 2021 as COVID-19 related supply chain issues eased for some of our Partner Solutions customers during the quarter. It is not clear that this is an indication of sustained recovery. Revenue in 2021 remains at levels lower than our pre-COVID-19 expectations. We believe our Partner Solutions revenue is also affected by other Microsoft distributors offering deep discounts on Windows IoT OS software as part of hardware / software bundles. We expect this market trend may continue in future quarters. We are working to retain and attract customers with superior service and technical support, pricing that rewards loyalty, and a path to IoT operations.
In our Edge to Cloud segment, investments we made to ensure we were meeting our operating commitments, while re-tooling and addressing issues with software previously delivered to some of our larger IoT customers, started to generate revenue for us in 2020. In the first quarter of 2021, we worked closely with Itron, Inc. to help them build their intelligent utility grid. We anticipate investments in our other large IoT customers will continue in 2021, but at lower levels than in 2020 as the bulk of the rework is now complete. Beyond gaining credibility as a reliable technology partner, we believe the experience we have gained serving Itron and our other large IoT customers positions us to improve our IoT software and services in 2021 and beyond.
Expenses
Our work in 2020 to reduce our operating expense structure has provided a foundation from which we are strategically building our business. Our operating expenses in the first half of 2021 were nearly $200,000 less than our operating expenses the first half of 2020. Our current cost structure fits our business model and our entrepreneurial leadership team acts on changing business circumstances and opportunities as they emerge. We believe this operating discipline demonstrates our ability to manage through adversity.
Cash and Liquidity
Our cash and cash equivalents decreased by $3.7 million in the first half of 2021. This cash use was driven by investment in strategic growth opportunities, operational results (primarily soft Partner Solutions revenue) and variations in working capital.
During the second quarter of 2021 we received net cash proceeds of $0.3 million from sales of Shares under the terms of the Prior Offering. After the quarter, in July 2021, we received net cash proceeds of $31.8 million from additional sales of Shares under the terms of the Prior Offering and the Current Offering.
Critical Accounting Judgments
Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, sales, cost of sales and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate our estimates on an on-going basis. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable in the circumstances, which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting judgments, policies and estimates as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
