AGEAGLE AERIAL SYSTEMS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2023 AND 2022
(UNAUDITED)

 

Note 1 – Description of the Business and Basis of Presentation

 

Description of Business – AgEagle™ Aerial Systems Inc. (“AgEagle” or the “Company”), through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, AgEagle Aerial, Inc., DBA MicaSense™, Inc. (“MicaSense”), Measure Global, Inc. (“Measure”), senseFly SA and senseFly Inc. (collectively “senseFly”), is actively engaged in designing and delivering best-in-class drones, sensors and software that solve important problems for its customers in a wide range of industry verticals, including energy/utilities, infrastructure, agriculture and government.

 

Founded in 2010, AgEagle was originally formed to pioneer proprietary, professional-grade, fixed-winged drones and aerial imagery-based data collection and analytics solutions for the agriculture industry. Today, the Company is earning distinction as a globally respected market leader offering customer-centric, advanced, autonomous unmanned aerial systems (“UAS”) which drive revenue at the intersection of flight hardware, sensors and software for industries that include agriculture, military/defense, public safety, surveying/mapping and utilities/engineering, among others. AgEagle has also achieved numerous regulatory firsts, including earning governmental approvals for its commercial and tactical drones to fly Beyond Visual Line of Sight (“BVLOS”) and/or Operations Over People (“OOP”) in the United States, Canada, Brazil and the European Union .D

 

AgEagle’s shift and expansion from solely manufacturing fixed-wing farm drones in 2018, to offering what the Company believes is one of the industry’s best fixed-wing, full-stack drone solutions, culminated in 2021 when the Company acquired three market-leading companies engaged in producing UAS airframes, sensors and software for commercial and government use. In addition to a robust portfolio of proprietary, connected hardware and software products; an established global network of over 200 UAS resellers; and enterprise customers worldwide; these acquisitions also brought AgEagle a workforce comprised largely of experienced engineers and technologists with deep expertise in the fields of robotics, automation, manufacturing and data science. In 2022, the Company succeeded in integrating all three acquired companies with AgEagle to form one global company focused on taking autonomous flight performance to a higher level.

 

The business acquisitions completed during the year ended December 31, 2021, by the Company of 100% of the outstanding stock of MicaSense, Measure and senseFly, respectively, are collectively referred to as the “2021 Business Acquisitions.”

 

The Company is currently headquartered in Wichita, Kansas, where it houses its sensor manufacturing operations and Lausanne, Switzerland where we it operates its drone manufacturing operations.

 

Basis of Presentation – The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are presented in United States dollars and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). In the opinion of management, the Company has made all necessary adjustments, which include normal recurring adjustments, for a fair statement of the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. Certain information and disclosures included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes for the year ended December 31, 2022, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on April 4, 2023. The results for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023, and 2022, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year, any other interim periods or any future year or periods.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2023 AND 2022
(UNAUDITED)

 

Note 1 – Description of the Business and Basis of Presentation - Continued

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of AgEagle and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, AgEagle Aerial, Inc., Measure Global, Inc., senseFly S.A. and senseFly Inc. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

A description of certain of the Company’s accounting policies and other financial information is included in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements filed with the SEC on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. The summary of significant accounting policies presented below is designed to assist in understanding the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. Such condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are the representations of the Company’s management, who are responsible for their integrity and objectivity.

 

Liquidity and Going Concern – In pursuit of the Company’s long-term growth strategy and acquisitions, the Company has sustained continued operating losses. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company incurred a net loss of $9,890,082 and used cash in operating activities of $6,783,320. As of June 30, 2023, the Company has working capital of $7,537,254 and an accumulated deficit of $126,354,420. While the Company has historically been successful in raising capital to meet its working capital needs, the ability to continue raising such capital is not guaranteed. There is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern as the Company will require additional liquidity to continue its operations and meet its financial obligations for twelve (12) months from the date these condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. The Company is evaluating strategies to obtain the required additional funding for future operations and the restructuring of operations to grow revenues and reduce expenses.

 

If the Company is unable to generate significant sales growth in the near term and raise additional capital, there is a risk that the Company could default on additional obligations; and could be required to discontinue or significantly reduce the scope of its operations if no other means of financing operations are available. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities or any other adjustment that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

The summary of significant accounting policies presented below is designed to assist in understanding the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. Such condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are the representations of the Company’s management, who are responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) in all material respects and have been consistently applied in preparing the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Risks and Uncertainties – Global economic challenges, including the impact of war, pandemics, rising inflation and supply-chain disruptions and adverse labor market conditions could cause economic uncertainty and volatility. The aforementioned risks and their respective impacts on the UAV industry and the Company’s operational and financial performance remain uncertain and outside of the Company’s control. Specifically, because of the aforementioned continuing risks, the Company’s ability to access components and parts needed in order to manufacture its proprietary drones and sensors, and to perform quality testing have been, and continue to be, impacted. If either the Company or any of its third parties in the supply chain for materials used in our manufacturing and assembly processes continue to be adversely impacted, the Company’s supply chain may be further disrupted, limiting its ability to manufacture and assemble products.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies-Continued

 

Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include the reserve for obsolete inventory, valuation of stock issued for services and stock options, valuation of intangible assets, and the valuation of deferred tax assets.

 

Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures – ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), requires companies to determine fair value based on the price that would be received to sell the asset or paid to transfer the liability to a market participant. ASC 820 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement.

 

The guidance requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following categories:

 

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
   
Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.
   
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.

 

For short-term classes of our financial instruments, which include cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, notes receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, their carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. The outstanding loans related to the COVID Loans and promissory note are carried at face value, which approximates fair value. As June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, the Company did not have any financial assets or liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets on a recurring basis.

 

Inventories Inventories, which consist of raw materials, finished goods and work-in-process, are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost being determined by the average-cost method, which approximates the first-in, first-out method. Cost components include direct materials and direct labor. At each balance sheet date, the Company evaluates its inventories for excess quantities and obsolescence. This evaluation primarily includes an analysis of forecasted demand in relation to the inventory on hand, among consideration of other factors. The physical condition (e.g., age and quality) of the inventories is also considered in establishing its valuation. Based upon the evaluation, provisions are made to reduce excess or obsolete inventories to their estimated net realizable values. Once established, write-downs are considered permanent adjustments to the cost basis of the respective inventories. These adjustments are estimates, which could vary significantly, either favorably or unfavorably, from the amounts that the Company may ultimately realize upon the disposition of inventories if future economic conditions, customer inventory levels, product discontinuances, sales return levels or competitive conditions differ from the Company’s estimates and expectations.

 

Cash Concentrations – The Company maintains its cash balances at financial institutions that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000. The Company has significant cash balances at financial institutions which throughout the year regularly exceed the federally insured limit of $250,000. Any loss incurred or a lack of access to such funds could have a significant adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

 

Revenue Recognition and Concentration – Most of the Company’s revenues are derived primarily through the sales of drones, sensors and related accessories, and software subscriptions. All contracts and agreements are at fixed prices and are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2023 AND 2022

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies-Continued

 

The Company generally recognizes revenue on sales to customers, dealers, and distributors upon satisfaction of performance obligations which generally occurs once controls transfer to customers, which is when product is shipped or delivered depending on specific shipping terms and, where applicable, a customer acceptance has been obtained. The fee is not considered to be fixed or determinable until all material contingencies related to the sales have been resolved. The Company records revenue in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss net of any sales, use, value added, or certain excise taxes imposed by governmental authorities on specific sales transactions and net of any discounts, allowances and returns.

 

The Company’s software subscriptions to its platforms, HempOverview and Ground Control, are offered on a subscription basis. These subscription fees are recognized equally over the membership period as the services are provided.

 

Additionally, customer payments received in advance of the Company completing performance obligations are recorded as contract liabilities. Customer deposits represent customer prepayments and are recognized as revenue when the term of the sale or performance obligation is completed. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, contract liabilities represent $440,165 and $496,390.

 

Internal-use Software Costs – Internal-use software costs are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 350-40, Internal-Use Software. The costs incurred in the preliminary stages of development are expensed as research and development costs as incurred. Once an application has reached the development stage, internal and external costs incurred to develop internal-use software are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the software (typically three to five years). Maintenance and enhancement costs, including those costs in the post-implementation stages, are typically expensed as incurred, unless such costs relate to substantial upgrades and enhancements to the software that result in added functionality, in which case the costs are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the software. The Company reviews the carrying value for impairment whenever facts and circumstances exist that would suggest that assets might be impaired or that the useful lives should be modified. Amortization expense related to capitalized internal-use software development costs is included in general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Continued

 

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, capitalized software costs for internal-use software related to the Company’s implementation of its enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) software, totaled $699,404 and $721,795, respectively, net of accumulated amortization and are included in intangible assets, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company placed its ERP into service on May 1, 2022.

 

Further, capitalized software costs for internal-use software include costs incurred in connection with our HempOverview and Ground Control which we offer to our customers under SaaS arrangements. We account for these capitalized development costs in accordance with ASC 350-40 as our customer do not have the contractual right to take possession of the software at any time during the hosting period without significant penalty nor is it feasible for our customers to run the hosted software on their own. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, capitalized software development costs for our hosted platforms, net of accumulated amortization, totaled $1,220,659 and $1,332,516, respectively, and are included in intangible assets, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

 

Goodwill and Intangible Assets - The assets and liabilities of acquired businesses are recorded under the acquisition method of accounting at their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. Goodwill represents costs in excess of fair values assigned to the underlying identifiable net assets of acquired businesses. Intangible assets from acquired businesses are recognized at fair value on the acquisition date and consist of customer programs, trademarks, customer relationships, technology and other intangible assets. Customer programs include values assigned to major programs of acquired businesses and represent the aggregate value associated with the customer relationships, contracts, technology and trademarks underlying the associated program and are amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of expected cash flows used to measure fair value, which ranges from four to five years.

 

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 our goodwill balance was $23,179,411. We performed an annual impairment test of the Company’s goodwill in the fourth quarter of 2022 and unless events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of goodwill may be impaired we may look to perform such test sooner versus on an annual basis. Such events or changes in circumstances may include a significant deterioration in overall economic conditions, changes in the business climate of our industry, a decline in our market capitalization, decline in operating performance indicators, competition, or a reorganizations of our business. Our goodwill has been allocated to and is tested for impairment at a level referred to as the business segment. The level at which we test goodwill for impairment requires us to determine whether the operations below the business segment constitute a self-sustaining business for which discrete financial information is available and segment management regularly reviews the operating results which is referred to as a reporting unit.

 

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 our intangible assets balance was $10,069,558 and $11,507,653, respectively. Finite-lived intangibles are amortized to expense over the applicable useful lives, ranging from five to ten years, based on the nature of the asset and the underlying pattern of economic benefit as reflected by future net cash inflows. We perform an impairment test of finite-lived intangibles whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate their carrying value may be impaired. If events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of a finite-lived intangible may be impaired, the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset group would be compared to the asset group’s carrying value. If the asset group’s carrying amount exceeds the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows, we would determine the fair value of the asset group and record an impairment loss in net earnings.

 

As of June 30, 2023, the Company deemed that no impairment was indicated for the carrying value of the goodwill nor its intangible assets. At December 31, 2022 the Company recorded an impairment expense on its goodwill in connection with its annual impairment test. At June 30, 2023 there have been no events or changes in circumstances which indicate an interim impairment test is required. The Company will perform its annual analysis during the fourth quarter of 2023.

 

Foreign Currency - The Company translates assets and liabilities of its foreign subsidiary, senseFly S.A., predominately in Swiss Franc to their U.S. dollar equivalents at exchange rates in effect as of the balance sheet date. Translation adjustments are not included in determining net income but are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company translates the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss of its foreign subsidiary at average exchange rates for the applicable period. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses, arising primarily from changes in exchange rates on foreign currency denominated revenues, certain purchases and intercompany transactions are recorded in other income (expense), net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

 

Shipping Costs All shipping costs billed directly to the customer are directly offset to shipping costs resulting in a net expense to the Company, which is included in cost of goods sold in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. For the three months ended June, 2023 and 2022, shipping costs totaled $57,545 and $85,516, respectively. For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, shipping costs totaled $122,481 and $144,975, respectively.

 

Advertising Costs – Advertising costs are charged to operations as incurred and presented in sales and marketing expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. For the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, advertising costs were $27,729 and $103,756, respectively, and for the six months ended $68,418 and $164,382, respectively.

 

Vendor Concentrations – As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there was one significant vendor that the Company relies upon to perform certain services for the Company’s technology platform. This vendor provides services to the Company, which can be replaced by alternative vendors should the need arise.

 

Loss Per Common Share and Potentially Dilutive Securities Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus Common Stock, par value $0.001 (“Common Stock”) equivalents (if dilutive) related to warrants, options, and convertible instruments. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company has excluded all common equivalent shares outstanding for restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and options to purchase Common Stock from the calculation of diluted net loss per share, because these securities are anti-dilutive for the periods presented. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had 455,972 unvested RSUs, 2,778,982 options outstanding to purchase shares of Common Stock and 53,351,747 common stock warrants. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had 675,367 unvested RSUs, 2,452,248 options outstanding to purchase shares of Common Stock and 5,000,000 common stock warrants.

 

Segment Reporting – In accordance with ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting, (“ASC 280”), the Company identifies operating segments as components of an entity for which discrete financial information is available and is regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker in making decisions regarding resource allocation and performance assessment. The Company defines the term “chief operating decision maker” to be its chief executive officer.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies-Continued

 

The Company has determined that it operates in four segments:

 

  Drones, which comprises revenues earned from contractual arrangements to develop, manufacture and /or modify complex drone related products, and to provide associated engineering, technical and other services according to customer specifications.
     
  Sensors, which comprises the revenue earned through the sale of sensors, cameras, and related accessories.
     
  SaaS, which comprises revenue earned through the offering of online-based subscriptions.
     
  Corporate, which comprises corporate costs only.

 

New Accounting Pronouncements - In March 2022, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2022-02, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures (“ASU 2022-02”), which addresses areas identified by the FASB as part of its post-implementation review of its previously issued credit losses standard, ASU 2016-13, that introduced the Current Expected Credit Loss (“CECL”) model. ASU 2022-02 eliminates the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings by creditors that have adopted the CECL model and enhances disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancings and restructurings made with borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. In addition, ASU 2022-02 requires a public business entity to disclose current-period gross write-offs for financing receivables and net investment in leases by year of origination in the vintage disclosures. ASU 2022-02 is effective for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and for periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2022-02 effective January 1, 2023 and it did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by FASB did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 4 – Notes Receivable

 

Valqari

 

On October 14, 2020, in connection with, and as an incentive to the entry into a two-year exclusive manufacturing agreement (the “Manufacturing Agreement”) to produce a patented Drone Delivery Station for Valqari, LLC (“Valqari), the Company entered into, as payee, a Convertible Promissory Note pursuant to which the Company made a loan to Valqari in the principal aggregate amount of $500,000 (the “Note”). The Note accrues interest at a rate of three percent per annum.

 

The Note matured on April 15, 2021 (the “Maturity Date”), at which time all outstanding principal and interest that had accrued, but remained, unpaid was due. The Note provides for an automatic six month extension of the Maturity Date under the following circumstances (i) Valqari has received in writing, (x) a good faith acquisition offer at a consideration value greater than $15,000,000, (y) such offer, upon consummation, would result in a change in control (as defined in the note) of Valqari, and (z) at such time Valqari, is actively engaged in the negotiation or finalization of such acquisition transaction; or (ii) Valqari has initiated, or is in the process of initiating, a conversion to a “C-Corporation” under the Internal Revenue Code, whereas such conversion will be completed no later than one day prior to the extended Maturity Date. Valqari was not permitted to prepay the Note prior to the Maturity Date.

 

The Note is subject to customary representations and warranties by Valqari, as well as events of default, which may lead to acceleration of the payment of the Note such as (i) failure to pay all of the outstanding principal, plus accrued interest on the Maturity Date or Extended Maturity Date, (ii) Valqari filing a petition or action under any bankruptcy, or other law, or (iii) an involuntary petition is filed again Valqari under any bankruptcy statute (that is not dismissed or discharged within 60 days). The indebtedness evidenced by the Note is subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment in full of any senior indebtedness (as defined in the Note) in existence on the date of the Note or incurred thereafter.

 

On the Maturity Date, AgEagle demanded payment of the Note, including accrued interest, however, Valqari alleged that the Maturity Date was automatically extended to October 14, 2021 (“Extended Maturity Date”), for an additional six months. Upon the Extended Maturity Date, AgEagle demanded payment of the Note, including accrued interest; however, Valqari sought a substantial discount on the amount due under the Note to compensate for alleged breaches by AgEagle under the Manufacturing Agreement. AgEagle disputes the allegations of breach and believes that it is owed a net amount by Valqari under the Manufacturing Agreement, in addition to the amount due under the Note. On November 24, 2021, Valqari made a payment of principal on the Note of $315,000. The parties are continuing to negotiate in an attempt to reach an amicable resolution of their disputes; however, AgEagle reserves the right to take legal action to collect the Note in the event that a settlement is not reached.

Note 6 – Promissory Note

 

On December 6, 2022, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Promissory Note Purchase Agreement”) with an institutional investor (the “Investor”) which is an existing shareholder of the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the Promissory Note Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to issue to the Investor (i) an 8% original issue discount promissory note (the “Note”) in the aggregate principal amount of $3,500,000, and (ii) a common stock purchase warrant (the “Promissory Note Warrant”) to purchase up to 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Shares”) at an exercise price of $0.44 per share, subject to standard anti-dilution adjustments. The Note is an unsecured obligation of the Company. It has an original issue discount of 4% and bears interest at 8% per annum. The Company received net proceeds of $3,285,000 net of the original issue discount of $140,000 and $75,000 of issuance costs. The Promissory Note Warrant is not exercisable for the first six months after issuance and has a five-year term from the initial exercise date of June 6, 2023. If at the time of the exercise, there is no effective registration statement registering, or the prospectus contained therein, is not available for the issuance of the Shares, then the Promissory Note Warrant may be exercised, in whole or in part, by means of a “cashless exercise.” The Shares issuable to the Investor upon exercise of the Promissory Note Warrant will be issued in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder. Neither the Shares nor the Promissory Note Warrant has been registered under the Securities Act, or applicable state securities laws, and none may be offered or sold in the United States absent registration under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration requirements.

 

The Company determined the estimated fair value of the common stock warrants issued with the Note to be $1,847,200 using a Black-Scholes pricing model. In accordance with ASC 470-20 Debt, the Company recorded a discount of $1,182,349 on the Note based on the relative fair value of the warrants and total proceeds. At Note issuance, the Company recorded a total discount on the debt of $1,397,350 comprised of the relative fair value of the warrants, the original issue discount, and the issuance costs. The aggregate discount will be amortized into interest expense over the approximate two-year term of the Note. The Company used the following assumptions in determining the fair value of the warrants: expected term of five years, volatility rate of 135.8%, risk free rate of 3.73%, and dividend rate of 0%.

 

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recognized $168,885 and $337,770, respectively, of interest expense related to the amortization of the discounts and which has been included in interest expense on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. As of June 30, 2023, the unamortized discount is $1,013,309.

Note 7 – Stockholders’ Equity – Continued

 

In connection with the Series F Agreement, the Company issued a warrant to Alpha to purchase 16,129,032 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Series F Warrants”) with an exercise price equal to $0.96, subject to adjustment, per share of Common Stock. The Series F Warrant, and the shares of Common Stock underling the Series F Warrant are collectively referred to as the “Series F Warrant Shares”. The Series F Warrant was not exercisable for the first six months after its issuance and has a three-year term from its exercise date. Upon exercise of the Series F Warrants in full by Alpha, the Company would receive additional gross proceeds of approximately $10,000,000.

 

Alpha has the right, subject to certain conditions, including shareholder approval, to purchase up to $25,000,000 of additional shares of Series F and Series F Warrants (collectively the “Series F Option”). The Series F Option will be available for a period of eighteen months after such shareholder approval at a purchase price equal to the average of the volume weighted average price for three trading days prior to the date that Alpha gives notice to the Company that it will exercise the Series F Option.

 

Commencing from the Series F Closing Date and for a period of six months thereafter, upon any issuance by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of Common Stock or Common Stock equivalents for cash consideration, indebtedness or a combination of units thereof (a “Subsequent Financing”), Alpha will have the right to participate in up to an amount of the Subsequent Financing equal to 50% of the Subsequent Financing on the same terms, conditions and price provided for in the Subsequent Financing. Preferred Stock has no voting rights, except that the Company shall not undertake certain corporate actions as set forth in the Certificate of Designation that would materially impact the holders of Preferred Stock without their consent.

 

On December 6, 2022, upon the issuance of the promissory note and common stock warrants with an exercise price of $0.44 (see Note 6), a down round or anti-dilution trigger event occurred resulting in the conversion rate on the Series F and the exercise price of the Series F Warrants issued with the Series F adjusting down to $0.44 from $0.62 and $0.96, respectively (the “December Down Round Trigger”). The December Down Round Trigger resulted in the Company recognizing a deemed dividend on the common stock warrants and Series F of $565,161 and $1,680,216, respectively, or aggregate deemed dividend of $2,245,377, for the incremental value to the warrant and Series F holder resulting from the reduction in exercise price and conversion price.

 

The deemed dividend on the Series F Warrants represents the difference between fair value of the Series F Warrants under the original terms before the December Down Round Trigger and the fair value of the Series F Warrants after December Down Round Trigger at the reduced exercise price. The fair value of the Series F Warrants was determined using a Black-Scholes pricing model and the following assumptions: expected life of 3 years, volatility of 150%, risk free rate of 3.77%, and dividend rate of 0%.

 

On March 9, 2023, the Company received an Investor Notice from Alpha to purchase an additional 3,000 shares of Series F Convertible Preferred (the “Additional Series F Preferred”) convertible into 2,381 shares of the Company’s Common Stock per $1,000 Stated Value per share of Series F Preferred Stock, at a conversion price of $0.42 per share and associated common stock warrants to purchase up to 7,142,715 shares of Common Stock at the exercise price of $0.42 per share warrant (the “Additional Warrant”) for an aggregate purchase price of $3,000,000. The Additional Warrant is exercisable upon issuance and has a three-year term. On March 10, 2023, the Company issued and sold the Additional Series F Preferred and the Additional Warrant.

 

As a result of issuing the additional 3,000 shares of Series F Convertible Preferred, a down round or anti-dilution trigger event occurred resulting in the conversion rate on the Series F and the exercise price of the Series F Warrants issued with the Series F adjusting down to $0.42 from $0.44 (the “March Down Round Trigger”). The March Down Round Trigger resulted in the Company recognizing a deemed dividend on the common stock warrants and Series F Preferred Stock of $38,226 and $217,750, respectively, or aggregate deemed dividend of $255,976, for the incremental value to the warrant and Series F holder resulting from the reduction in exercise price and conversion price.

Note 7 – Stockholders’ Equity – Continued

 

The deemed dividend on the Series F Warrants represents the difference between fair value of the Series F Warrants under the original terms before the March Down Round Trigger and the fair value of the Series F Warrants after March Down Round Trigger at the reduced exercise price. The fair value of the Series F Warrants was determined using a Black-Scholes pricing model and the following assumptions: expected life of 3 years, volatility of 131%, risk free rate of 4.46%, and dividend rate of 0%.

 

Upon the issuance of the Offering Shares and Warrants on June 8, 2023, a down round or anti-dilution trigger event occurred resulting in the conversion price of the remaining Series F Preferred Stock and the exercise price of the Series F Warrants adjusting down from $0.42 per share to $0.25 per share (the “June Down Round Trigger”). The June Down Round Trigger resulted in the Company recognizing a deemed dividend on the common stock warrants and Series F Preferred Stock of $787,823 and $3,867,095, respectively, or an aggregate deemed dividend of $4,654,918, for the incremental value to the warrant and Series F holder resulting from the reduction in exercise price and conversion price.

 

The deemed dividend on the Series F Warrants represents the difference between fair value of the Series F Warrants under the original terms before the down round trigger and the fair value of the Series F Warrants after down round trigger at the reduced exercise price. The fair value of the Series F Warrants was determined using a Black-Scholes pricing model and the following assumptions: expected life of 2.5 years, volatility of 106%, risk free rate of 4.28%, and dividend rate of 0%.

 

All deemed dividends to the Series F stockholder were recorded as additional paid in capital and an increase to accumulated deficit and as an increase to total comprehensive loss attributable to Common Stockholders in computing earnings per share on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

 

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, Alpha converted 840 and 1,838 shares of Series F into 2,000,000 and 4,304,762 shares of Common Stock, respectively. As a result, for the same periods, the Company recorded $54,234 and $121,155 cumulative dividends, respectively, which are included in accrued expenses on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, at the rate per share (as a percentage of the $1,000 stated par value per share of Series F) of 5% per annum, beginning on the first conversation date of June 30, 2022.

Note 8 – Leases

 

Operating Leases

 

In May 2023, the Company executed a sublease agreement for their facility located in Seattle, Washington; however, the Company remains the primary obligor under the original lease. The sublease commenced June 1, 2023 and requires a total of $433,137 rental payments over a thirty-two-month term. Due to the anticipated sublease income being less than the total rental payments required on the primary lease, we recorded an impairment charge on the right-of-use asset associated with this lease of $79,287 which has been included on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations as a lease impairment charge. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we recognized $13,356 of rental income on the straight-line basis as an offset to rent expenses within general and administrative expenses.

 

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, operating lease expense payments were $264,430 and $528,343, respectively, and $628,449 and $961,922, respectively. Operating lease expense payments are included in general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

At this point, we are unable to predict what the timing or the outcome of the SEC investigation may be or what, if any, consequences the SEC investigation may have with respect to the Company. However, the SEC investigation could result in additional legal expenses and divert management’s attention from other business concerns and harm our business. If the SEC were to determine that legal violations occurred, we could be required to pay civil penalties or other amounts, and remedies or conditions could be imposed as part of any resolution. Currently, the Company estimates the penalties ranging from $150,000 to $200,000.

Overview

 

AgEagleAerial Systems Inc. (“AgEagle”, “Company”, “We”, “Our”, “Us”), through its wholly owned subsidiaries, is actively engaged in designing and delivering best-in-class drones, sensors and software that solve important problems for our customers. Founded in 2010, AgEagle was originally formed to pioneer proprietary, professional-grade, fixed-winged drones and aerial imagery-based data collection and analytics solutions for the agriculture industry. AgEagle’s shift and expansion from solely manufacturing fixed-wing farm drones in 2018, to offering what we believe is one of the industry’s best fixed-wing, full-stack drone solutions, culminated in 2021 when we acquired three market-leading companies engaged in producing UAS airframes, sensors and software for commercial and government use. In addition to a robust portfolio of proprietary, connected hardware and software products; an established global network of over 200 UAS resellers; and enterprise customers worldwide; these acquisitions also brought AgEagle a highly valuable workforce comprised largely of experienced engineers and technologists with deep expertise in the fields of robotics, automation, manufacturing and data science. In 2022, we succeeded in integrating all three acquired companies with AgEagle to form one global company focused on taking autonomous flight performance to a higher level.

 

AgEagle has also achieved numerous regulatory firsts, earning governmental approvals for its commercial and tactical drones to fly Beyond Visual Line of Sight (“BVLOS”) and/or Operations Over People (“OOP”) in the United States, Canada, Brazil and the European Union.

 

AgEagle is led by a proven management team with years of drone industry experience and is currently headquartered in Wichita, Kansas, where we house our business and sensor manufacturing operations; and we operate drone manufacturing operations in Lausanne, Switzerland in support of our international business activities.

 

We intend to grow our business and preserve our leadership position by developing new drones, sensors and software and capturing a significant share of the global drone market. In addition, we expect to accelerate our growth and expansion through strategic acquisitions of companies offering distinct technological and competitive advantages and have defensible IP protection in place, if applicable.

 

Key Growth Strategies

 

We intend to materially grow our business by leveraging our proprietary, best-in-class, full-stack drone solutions, industry influence and deep pool of talent with specialized expertise in robotics, automation, custom manufacturing and data science to achieve greater penetration of the global UAS industry – with near-term emphasis on capturing larger market share of the agriculture, energy/utilities, infrastructure and government/military verticals. We expect to accomplish this goal by first bringing three core values to life in our day-to-day operations and aligning them with our efforts to earn the trust and continued business of our customers and industry partners:

 

  Curiosity – this pushes us to find value where others aren’t looking. It inspires us to see around corners for our customers, understanding the problems they currently face or will be facing in the future, and delivering them solutions best suited for their unique needs.
     
  Passion – this fuels our obsession with excellence, our desire to try the difficult things and tackle big problems, and our commitment to meet our customers’ needs – and then surpass them.
     
  Integrity – this is not optional or situational at AgEagle – it is the foundation for everything we do, even when no one is watching.

 

33

 

 

    Key components of our growth strategy include the following:
     
  Establish three centers of excellence with respective expertise in UAS drones, sensors and software. These centers of excellence cross pollinate ideas, industry insights and skillsets to yield intelligent autonomous solutions that fully leverage AgEagle’s experienced team’s specialized knowledge and know-how in robotics, automation, custom manufacturing and data science.
     
  Deliver new and innovative solutions. AgEagle’s research and development efforts are critical building blocks of the Company, and we intend to continue investing in our own innovations, pioneering new and enhanced products and solutions that enable us to satisfy our customers – both in response to and in anticipation of their needs. AgEagle believes that by investing in research and development, the Company can be a leader in delivering innovative autonomous robotics systems and solutions that address market needs beyond our current target markets, enabling us to create new opportunities for growth.
     
  Foster our entrepreneurial culture and continue to attract, develop and retain highly skilled personnel. AgEagle’s company culture encourages innovation and entrepreneurialism, which helps attract and retain highly skilled professionals. We believe this culture is key to nurture the design and development of the innovative, highly technical system solutions that give us our competitive advantage.
     
  Effectively manage our growth portfolio for long-term value creation. Our production and development programs present numerous investment opportunities that we believe will deliver long-term growth by providing our customers with valuable new capabilities. We evaluate each opportunity independently, as well as within the context of other investment opportunities, to determine its relative cost, timing and potential for generation of returns, and thereby its priority. This process helps us make informed decisions regarding potential growth capital requirements and supports our allocation of resources based on relative risks and returns to maximize long-term value creation, which is the key objective of our growth strategy. We also review our portfolio on a regular basis to determine if and when to narrow our focus on the highest potential growth opportunities.
     
  Growth through acquisition. Through successful execution of our growth-through-acquisition strategies, we intend to acquire technologically advanced UAS companies and intellectual property that complement and strengthen our value proposition to the market. We believe that by investing in complementary acquisitions, we can accelerate our revenue growth and deliver a broader array of innovative autonomous flight systems and solutions that address specialized market needs within our current target markets and in emerging markets that can benefit from innovations in artificial intelligence-enabled robotics and data capture and analytics.

In December 2022, we unveiled our new eBee™ VISION, a small, fixed-wing UAS designed to provide real-time, enhanced situational awareness for critical intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance missions; to produce and deliver eBee™ VISION fixed-wing drones and customized command and control software that proves compatible and is in full compliance with the DoD Robotic and Autonomous System-Air Interoperability Profile (“RAS-A IOP”). In addition, three branches of European military forces have taken delivery of eBee VISION drones in 2023. In anticipation of achieving commercial production of eBee VISIONs later this year, we have teams hosting live demonstrations of eBee VISION prototypes for officials of government and military agencies in Austria, the Baltics, Italy, Poland, Spain and across the United States.

 

In May 2023, we released the new RedEdge-P™ dual high resolution and RGB composite drone sensor, representing yet another AgEagle technological advancement in aerial imaging cameras, seamlessly integrating the power and performance of the RedEdge-P and the new RedEdge-P blue cameras in a single solution. The RedEdge-P dual doubles analytical capabilities with the benefit of a single camera workflow. Its coastal blue band – the first of its kind in the market – was specifically designed for vegetation analysis of water bodies; environmental monitoring; water management; habitat monitoring, protection and restoration; and vegetation species and weeds identification, including differentiating and counting plants, trees, invasive species and weeds.

 

In April of this year, AgEagle released Field Check for the Measure Ground Control mobile app. Measure Ground Control is a complete Software-as-a-Service solution for drone program management that is available as a web app and mobile app for both iOS and Android devices. The software’s capabilities include mission and equipment management, flight control, data processing and analysis, secure data storage and sharing, online collaboration and reporting. Field Check’s unique feature set enables users to review and validate the quality of their drone-captured imagery on-site. Capturing target imagery right the first time in one trip to a project site allows users to eliminate time loss and costs associated with project reworks by ensuring data capture is complete and ready for processing into high-resolution outputs before leaving a site. Reflecting our software development team’s superb problem-solving capabilities, Field Check provides our clients with a competitive edge in their drone operations and across the industries they serve by avoiding project repeats and downtime due to data processing errors or poor image quality.

     
  We offer market-tested drones, sensors and software solutions that have earned the longstanding trust and fidelity of customers worldwide – Through successful execution of our acquisition integration strategy in 2021, AgEagle is now delivering a unified line of industry trusted drones, sensors and software that have been vigorously tested and consistently proven across multiple industry verticals and use cases. For instance, our line of eBee fixed wing drones have flown more than one million flights over the past decade serving customers spanning surveying and mapping; engineering and construction; military/defense; mining, quarries and aggregates; agriculture humanitarian aid and environmental monitoring, to name just a few. Featured in over 100 research publications globally, advanced sensor innovations developed and commercialized by AgEagle have served to forge new industry standards for high performance, high resolution, thermal and multispectral imaging for commercial drone applications in agriculture, plant research, land management and forestry. In addition, we have championed the development of end-to-end software solutions which power autonomous flight and deliver actionable, contextual data and analytics for numerous Fortune 500 companies, government agencies and a wide range of businesses in agriculture, energy and utilities, construction and other industry sectors.
     
  AgEagle was awarded a Multiple Award Schedule (“MAS”) Contract by the U.S. federal government’s General Services Administration (“GSA”) – In April 2023, the centralized procurement arm of the federal government, the GSA, awarded us with a five-year MAS contract. The GSA Schedule Contract is a highly coveted award in the government contracting space and is the result of a rigorous proposal process involving the demonstration of products and services in-demand by government agencies, and the negotiation of their prices, qualifications, terms and conditions. Contractors selling through the GSA Contract are carefully vetted and must have a proven track record in the industry. We believe that this will serve to advance our efforts to achieve deeper penetration of the government sector over the next five years.

  Our eBee TAC UAS is available for purchase for all military branches of US – We believe that the eBee TAC is ideally positioned to become an in-demand, mission critical tool for the U.S. military, government and civil agencies and our allies worldwide; and expect that this will prove to be a major growth catalyst for us in 2023, positively impacting our financial performance in the years ahead. In addition to being available for purchase under our own GSA Schedule Contract, the eBee TAC is available for purchase by U.S. government agencies and all branches of the military on GSA Schedule Contract #47QTCA18D003G, supplied by Hexagon US Federal and partner Tough Stump Technologies as a standalone solution or as part of the Aerial Reconnaissance Tactical Edge Mapping Imagery System (“ARTEMIS”). Tough Stump is actively engaged in training military ground forces based in the U.S. and in Central Europe on the use of eBee TAC for mid-range tactical mapping and reconnaissance missions.
     
  Our eBeeX series of fixed wing UAS, including the eBee X, eBee Geo and eBee TAC, are the first and only drones on the market to comply with Category 3 of the sUAS Over People rules published by the FAA. It is another important testament of our commitment to providing best-in-class solutions to our commercial customers, and we believe it will serve as a key driver in the growth of eBee utilization in the United States. We further believe it will improve the business applications made possible by our drone platform for a wide range of commercial enterprises which stand to benefit from adoption of drones in their businesses – particularly those in industries such as insurance for assessment of storm damage, telecommunications for network coverage mapping and energy for powerline and pipeline inspections, just to name a few.
     
  Our eBee X series of drones are the world’s first UAS in its class to receive design verification for BVLOS and OOP from European Union Aviation Safety Agency (“EASA”). The EASA design verification report demonstrates that the eBee X meets the highest possible quality and ground risk safety standards and, thanks to its lightweight design, effects of ground impact are reduced. As such, drone operators conducting advanced drone operations in 27 European Member States, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, and Switzerland can obtain the HIGH or MEDIUM robustness levels of the M2 mitigation without additional verification from EASA. Regulatory constraints relating to limitations of BVLOS and OOP have continued to be a gating factor to widespread adoption of commercial drone technologies across a wide range of industry sectors worldwide. Being the first company to receive this DVR from EASA for M2 mitigation is a milestone for AgEagle and our industry in the European Union and will be key to fueling growth of our international customer base.
     
  Our global reseller network currently has more than 200 drone solutions providers in 75+ countries – By leveraging our relationships with the specialty retailers that comprise our global reseller network, AgEagle benefits from enhanced brand-building, lower customer acquisition costs and increased reach, revenues and geographic and vertical market penetration. With the integration of our 2021 Acquisitions, we can now leverage our collective reseller network to accelerate our revenue growth by educating and encouraging our partners to market AgEagle’s full suite of airframes, sensors and software as bundled solutions in lieu of marketing only previously siloed products or product lines to end users.
     
    In late 2022, we partnered with government contractor Darley to expand the market reach of AgEagle’s high performance fixed wing drones and sensors to the U.S. first responder and tactical defense markets. Distinguished as one of the nation’s longest standing government contracting organizations, Darley is expected to become a key contributor to AgEagle’s success in delivering best-in-class UAS solutions to a wide range of state and federal agencies. Providing our best-in-class autonomous flight solutions for public safety applications through trusted resellers like Darley represents an entirely new market opportunity for AgEagle and one we intend to vigorously pursue in the current year.

 

Impact of the Risks and Uncertainties on Our Business Operations

 

Global economic challenges, including the impact of the war, pandemics, rising inflation and supply-chain disruptions, regulatory investigations adverse labor and capital market conditions could cause economic uncertainty and volatility. The aforementioned risks and their respective impacts on the UAV industry and our operational and financial performance remains uncertain and outside of our control. Specifically, because of the aforementioned continuing risks, the our ability to access components and parts needed in order to manufacture its proprietary drones and sensors, and to perform quality testing have been, and continue to be, impacted. If either we or any of our third parties in the supply chain for materials used in our manufacturing and assembly processes continue to be adversely impacted, our supply chain may be further disrupted, limiting its ability to manufacture and assemble products.

Overall, we have experienced a decline in our drone business due to revenues decreasing for our legacy products that will be offset by year-end with the sales of our new product. In addition, due to the decrease in our sales price for ebee products for the quarter our margins were severely impacted diminishing our bottom-line results reflecting a sharp decrease in our operating expenses for the quarter of approximately $2.0M.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company incurred a net loss of $9,890,082 as compared to a net loss of $13,198,308 for the six months ended June 30, 2022, a decrease of $3,308,226, or 25.1 %. The overall decrease in net loss was primarily attributable to a decrease in operating costs as a result of the integration of the 2021 Business Acquisitions. In addition, in order to achieve our long-term growth strategies, additional resources and investments will be required as we continue to address these shifts by developing new technologies, products and services that support prevailing growth opportunities for our new products as we see the sharp decline in a competitive market of our legacy products that need to offset by our new products launched in 2022 (Panchro Sensors) and 2023 (ebee VISION).

 

Cash Flows

 

Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 as Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2022

 

As of June 30, 2023, cash on hand was $4,202,427, as compared to $4,349,837 as of December 31, 2022, a decrease of $147,410.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, cash used in operations was $6,783,320, a decrease of $4,803,842, or 41.3%, as compared to cash used of $11,628,089 for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease in cash used in operating activities was principally driven by lower sales and operating expenses which included significantly lower inventory purchases, prepaids, accounts payable, accrued expenses and contract liabilities.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, cash used in investing activities was $424,344, a decrease of $3,579,748, or 89.4%, as compared to cash used of $4,004,092 for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease in cash used in our investing activities resulted mainly from the business acquisition of MicaSense and senseFly that occurred in 2022 and a decrease in platform and internal use software costs along with purchases of property and equipment.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, cash provided by financing activities was $6,776,473, a decrease of $7,747,441, or 53.2%, as compared to cash provided of $14,564,841 for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease in cash provided by our financing activities was due to less sales of our Common stock through an at-the-market (“ATM”) offering and exercise of warrants in the prior year offset by the sale of Series F Preferred stock issuance of Common Stock and Warrant Transaction, (“the Offering”).

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of June 30, 2023, we had working capital of $7,537,254. For the six months ended June 30, 2023, we incurred a loss from operations of $9,032,946, a decrease of $3,837,573, or 29,8%, as compared to $12,870,519 for the six months ended June 30, 2022. While we have historically been successful in raising capital to meet its working capital needs, the ability to continue raising such capital to enable us to continue our growth is not guaranteed. We will require additional liquidity to continue its operations and meet its financial obligations over the next twelve (12) months, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We are evaluating strategies to obtain the required additional funding for future operations and the restructuring of operations to grow revenues and reduce expenses.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we raised $6,817,400 in equity from the additional sale of Series F Preferred Stock and Offering of our Common Stock.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

On June 30, 2023, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenue or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources. Since our inception, except for standard operating leases, we have not engaged in any off-balance sheet arrangements, including the use of structured finance, special purpose entities or variable interest entities. We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.

 

Inflation

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, inflation had a negative impact on the unmanned aerial vehicle systems industry, our customers and our business globally. Specifically, our ability to access components, parts and labor needed to manufacture our proprietary drones and sensors, and to perform quality testing have been, and continue to be, impacted. If either the Company or any of its third parties in the supply chain for materials used in our manufacturing and assembly processes continue to be adversely impacted, our supply chain may be further disrupted, limiting our ability to manufacture and assemble products. We expect inflation and its effects to continue to have a significant negative impact on our business.

 

Climate Change

 

Our opinion is that neither climate change, nor governmental regulations related to climate change, have had, or are expected to have, any material effect on our operations.

 

New Accounting Pronouncements

 

Recently issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to a have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE AMENDMENT AGREEMENT

 

This NOTE AMENDMENT AGREEMENT dated as of August 14, 2023 (this “Agreement”), by and between AgEagle Aerial Systems, Inc. (“Maker”), and Alpha Capital Anstalt (the “Payee” and together with the Maker each a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties”). Capitalized words not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings attributed to them in the SPA or Note (as defined below)

 

W I T N E SS E T H :

 

WHEREAS, the Maker and the Payee are parties to a Securities Purchase Agreement dated December 1, 2022, (the “SPA”), pursuant to which the Maker issued to the Payee an 8% Original Issue Discount Promissory Note dated December 6, 2022, bearing annual interest of 8% in the principal amount of $3,500,000.00 (the “Note”);

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 1(c) of the Note, Maker was obligated to make monthly amortization payments (the “Amortization Payment(s)”) to Payee commencing on June 1, 2023, and Maker failed to make the Amortization Payments due on June 1, 2023, July 1, 2023, and August 1, 2023 (the “Deferred Payments”); and

 

WHEREAS, due to ongoing discussions and negotiations between Maker and Payee, Payee has not, and did not declare the Note in default;

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the agreements of the Parties set forth herein, and other good and valuable consideration the receipt and legal adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged by the Maker and the Payee, it is hereby agreed as follows:

 

1. The Deferred Payments, together with the Amortization Payment scheduled for September 1, 2023, shall be due and payable on September 15, 2023.

 

2. The principal amount of the Note is increased by $595,000 so that the current principal amount of the Note is $4,095,000.

 

3. The first paragraph of Section 3(a) is deleted and replaced with the following:

 

“ “Event of Default”, wherever used herein, means with respect to (a) Sections 3(a)(i), (ii), (iii), and (v), the fifth (5th) Trading Day after the occurrence of the event and if subject to cure not cured within such five Trading Day period, and (b) with respect to Sections 3(a)(iv), (vi), and (vii), the day of the occurrence of any one of the following events (whatever the reason and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court, or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):”

 

4. The Maker confirms that the representations and warranties it made in Section 3.1 of the SPA are true and accurate as of the date hereof.

 

5. The Maker hereby represents and warrants to Payee that (i) the Maker has the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (ii) the execution, delivery and performance by the Maker of this Agreement does not and will not (x) conflict with or violate any provision of the Maker’s certificate or articles of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational or charter documents, (y) conflict with, or constitute a default (or an event that with notice or lapse of time or both would become a default) under, result in the creation of any lien upon any of the properties or assets of the Maker, or give to others any rights of termination, amendment, anti-dilution or similar adjustments, acceleration or cancellation (with or without notice, lapse of time or both) of, any agreement, credit facility, debt or other instrument (evidencing a Maker debt or otherwise) or other understanding to which the Maker is a party or by which any property or asset of the Maker is bound or affected, other than securities issued to Payee by Maker, or (z) conflict with or result in a violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, injunction, decree or other restriction of any court or governmental authority to which the Maker is subject (including federal and state securities laws and regulations), or by which any property or asset of the Maker is bound or affected; except in the case of each of clauses (y) and (z), such as could not have or reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

 

 

 

 

6. The Maker confirms that neither it nor any other Person acting on its behalf has provided Payee or its agents or counsel with any information that constitutes or could reasonably be expected to constitute material, non-public information concerning the Maker, other than the existence of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents. The Maker understands and confirms that Payee will rely on the foregoing representations in effecting transactions in securities of the Maker. From and after the filing of the 8-K to be filed pursuant to Section 9 below, the Maker represents to the Payee that it shall have publicly disclosed all material, non-public information delivered to Payee or any of its affiliates and agents, by the Maker, or any of its officers, directors, employees or agents in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

 

7. The Maker shall not, and the Maker shall cause each of its officers, directors, employees and agents not to provide Payee with any material, non-public information regarding the Maker or any of its subsidiaries from and after the date hereof without the express prior written consent of Payee (which may be granted or withheld in Payee’s sole discretion). In the event of a breach of the foregoing covenants, in addition to any other remedy provided herein, Payee shall have the right to make a public disclosure, in the form of a press release, public advertisement or otherwise, of such breach or such material, non-public information, as applicable, without the prior approval by the Maker, or any of its officers, directors, employees or agents. Payee shall have no liability to the Maker, any of its subsidiaries, or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates, stockholders or agents, for any such disclosure. To the extent that the Maker delivers any material, non-public information to Payee without Payee’s consent, the Maker hereby covenants and agrees that Payee shall not have any duty of confidentiality with respect to, or a duty not to trade on the basis of, such material, non-public information.

 

8. Except for securities issued to Payee by Maker, there are no outstanding securities or instruments of the Maker with any provision that adjusts the exercise, conversion, exchange or reset price of such security or instrument upon an issuance of securities by the Maker. Except for securities issued to Payee by Maker, the execution, delivery and performance by the Maker of this Agreement does not and will not give to others any rights of termination, participation, first refusal, amendment, acceleration, adjustment, exchange, reset, exercise or cancellation (with or without notice, lapse of time or both) of, any agreement, credit facility, debt, equity or other instrument (evidencing Maker equity, debt or otherwise) or other understanding to which the Maker is a party or by which any property or asset of the Maker is bound or affected.

 

9. Within one (1) Business Days after execution of this Agreement, the Maker shall file a form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission, disclosing this Agreement, which shall be an exhibit to such filing. The Form 8-K shall be provided to Payee for review and comment prior to filing.

 

10. The Maker shall reimburse Payee $10,000.00 for its fees and expenses incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

12. This Agreement shall be deemed a portion of the Note and shall be governed by the terms thereof.

 

13. This Amendment shall be deemed to have been drafted jointly by the Parties and therefore any rule of law that stands for the proposition that ambiguities contained within an agreement are to be construed against the drafter thereof is inapplicable.

(collectively “senseFly”), is actively engaged in designing and delivering best-in-class drones, sensors and software that solve important problems for its customers in a wide range of industry verticals, including energy/utilities, infrastructure, agriculture and government.

 

Founded in 2010, AgEagle was originally formed to pioneer proprietary, professional-grade, fixed-winged drones and aerial imagery-based data collection and analytics solutions for the agriculture industry. Today, the Company is earning distinction as a globally respected market leader offering customer-centric, advanced, autonomous unmanned aerial systems (“UAS”) which drive revenue at the intersection of flight hardware, sensors and software for industries that include agriculture, military/defense, public safety, surveying/mapping and utilities/engineering, among others. AgEagle has also achieved numerous regulatory firsts, including earning governmental approvals for its commercial and tactical drones to fly Beyond Visual Line of Sight (“BVLOS”) and/or Operations Over People (“OOP”) in the United States, Canada, Brazil and the European Union.

 

AgEagle’s shift and expansion from solely manufacturing fixed-wing farm drones in 2018, to offering what the Company believes is one of the industry’s best fixed-wing, full-stack drone solutions, culminated in 2021 when the Company acquired three market-leading companies engaged in producing UAS airframes, sensors and software for commercial and government use. In addition to a robust portfolio of proprietary, connected hardware and software products; an established global network of over 200 UAS resellers; and enterprise customers worldwide; these acquisitions also brought AgEagle a workforce comprised largely of experienced engineers and technologists with deep expertise in the fields of robotics, automation, manufacturing and data science. In 2022, the Company succeeded in integrating all three acquired companies with AgEagle to form one global company focused on taking autonomous flight performance to a higher level.

 

The business acquisitions completed by the Company during the year ended December 31, 2021 of 100% of the outstanding stock of MicaSense, Measure and senseFly, respectively, are collectively referred to as the “2021 Business Acquisitions.”

 

The Company is currently headquartered in Wichita, Kansas, where it houses its sensor manufacturing operations and Lausanne, Switzerland where it operates its drone manufacturing operations.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2023 AND 2022

(UNAUDITED)

 

Note 1 – Description of the Business and Basis of Presentation - Continued

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of AgEagle and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, AgEagle Aerial, Inc.; Measure Global, Inc.; senseFly S.A. and senseFly Inc. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

A description of certain of the Company’s accounting policies and other financial information is included in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements filed with the SEC on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. The summary of significant accounting policies presented below is designed to assist in understanding the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. Such condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are the representations of the Company’s management, who are responsible for their integrity and objectivity.

 

Liquidity and Going Concern – In pursuit of the Company’s long-term growth strategy and acquisitions, the Company has sustained continued operating losses. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company incurred a net loss of $17,910,210 and used cash in operating activities of $8,829,669. As of September 30, 2023, the Company has working capital of $2,818,220 and an accumulated deficit of $134,374,548. While the Company has historically been successful in raising capital to meet its working capital needs, the ability to continue raising such capital is not guaranteed. There is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern as the Company will require additional liquidity to continue its operations and meet its financial obligations for twelve (12) months from the date these condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. The Company is evaluating strategies to obtain the required additional funding for future operations and the restructuring of operations to grow revenues and reduce expenses.

 

If the Company is unable to generate significant sales growth in the near term and raise additional capital, there is a risk that the Company could default on additional obligations; and could be required to discontinue or significantly reduce the scope of its operations if no other means of financing operations are available. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities or any other adjustment that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

The summary of significant accounting policies presented below is designed to assist in understanding the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. Such condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are the representations of the Company’s management, who are responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) in all material respects and have been consistently applied in preparing the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Risks and Uncertainties – Global economic challenges, including the impact of war, pandemics, rising inflation and supply-chain disruptions and adverse labor market conditions could cause economic uncertainty and volatility. The aforementioned risks and their respective impacts on the UAV industry and the Company’s operational and financial performance remain uncertain and outside of the Company’s control. Specifically, because of the aforementioned continuing risks, the Company’s ability to access components and parts needed in order to manufacture its proprietary drones and sensors, and to perform quality testing have been, and continue to be, impacted. If either the Company or any of its third parties in the supply chain for materials used in our manufacturing and assembly processes continue to be adversely impacted, the Company’s supply chain may be further disrupted, limiting its ability to manufacture and assemble products.

 

Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include the reserve for obsolete inventory, valuation of stock issued for services and stock options, valuation of intangible assets, valuation of goodwill, and the valuation of deferred tax assets.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies-Continued

 

Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures – Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), requires companies to determine fair value based on the price that would be received to sell the asset or paid to transfer the liability to a market participant. ASC 820 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement.

 

The guidance requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following categories:

 

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
   
Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.
   
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.

 

For short-term classes of our financial instruments, which include cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, notes receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, their carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. The outstanding loans related to the COVID Loans and promissory note are carried at face value, which approximates fair value. As of September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, the Company did not have any financial assets or liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets on a recurring basis.

 

Inventories – Inventories, which consist of raw materials, finished goods and work-in-process, are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost being determined by the average-cost method, which approximates the first-in, first-out method. Cost components include direct materials and direct labor. At each balance sheet date, the Company evaluates its inventories for excess quantities and obsolescence. This evaluation primarily includes an analysis of forecasted demand in relation to the inventory on hand, among consideration of other factors. The physical condition (e.g., age and quality) of the inventories is also considered in establishing its valuation. Based upon the evaluation, provisions are made to reduce excess or obsolete inventories to their estimated net realizable values. Once established, write-downs are considered permanent adjustments to the cost basis of the respective inventories. These adjustments are estimates, which could vary significantly, either favorably or unfavorably, from the amounts that the Company may ultimately realize upon the disposition of inventories if future economic conditions, customer inventory levels, product discontinuances, sales return levels or competitive conditions differ from the Company’s estimates and expectations.

 

Cash Concentrations – The Company maintains its cash balances at financial institutions that are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to $250,000. The Company has significant cash balances at financial institutions which throughout the year regularly exceed the federally insured limit of $250,000. Any loss incurred or a lack of access to such funds could have a significant adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

 

Revenue Recognition and Concentration – Most of the Company’s revenues are derived primarily through the sales of drones, sensors and related accessories, and software subscriptions. All contracts and agreements are at fixed prices and are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

 

The Company generally recognizes revenue on sales to customers, dealers, and distributors upon satisfaction of performance obligations which generally occurs once controls transfer to customers, which is when product is shipped or delivered depending on specific shipping terms and, where applicable, a customer acceptance has been obtained. The fee is not considered to be fixed or determinable until all material contingencies related to the sales have been resolved. The Company records revenue in the statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) net of any sales, use, value added, or certain excise taxes imposed by governmental authorities on specific sales transactions and net of any discounts, allowances and returns.

 

The Company’s software subscriptions to its platforms, HempOverview and Ground Control, are offered on a subscription basis. These subscription fees are recognized equally over the membership period as the services are provided.

Additionally, customer payments received in advance of the Company completing performance obligations are recorded as contract liabilities. Customer deposits represent customer prepayments and are recognized as revenue when the term of the sale or performance obligation is completed. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, contract liabilities represent $329,536 and $496,390.

 

Internal-use Software Costs – Internal-use software costs are accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 350-40, Internal-Use Software. The costs incurred in the preliminary stages of development are expensed as research and development costs as incurred. Once an application has reached the development stage, internal and external costs incurred to develop internal-use software are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the software (typically three to five years). Maintenance and enhancement costs, including those costs in the post-implementation stages, are typically expensed as incurred, unless such costs relate to substantial upgrades and enhancements to the software that result in added functionality, in which case the costs are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the software. The Company reviews the carrying value for impairment whenever facts and circumstances exist that would suggest that assets might be impaired or that the useful lives should be modified. Amortization expense related to capitalized internal-use software development costs is included in general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

 

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, capitalized software costs for internal-use software related to the Company’s implementation of its enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) software, totaled $640,448 and $721,795, respectively, net of accumulated amortization and are included in intangible assets, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company placed its ERP into service on May 1, 2022.

 

Further, capitalized software costs for internal-use software include costs incurred in connection with our HempOverview and Ground Control which we offer to our customers under SaaS arrangements. We account for these capitalized development costs in accordance with ASC 350-40 as our customer do not have the contractual right to take possession of the software at any time during the hosting period without significant penalty nor is it feasible for our customers to run the hosted software on their own. As of September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, respectively, capitalized software development costs for our hosted platforms, net of accumulated amortization, totaled $1,100,734 and $1,332,516, respectively, and are included in intangible assets, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

 

Goodwill and Intangible Assets – The assets and liabilities of acquired businesses are recorded under the acquisition method of accounting at their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. Goodwill represents costs in excess of fair values assigned to the underlying identifiable net assets of acquired businesses. Intangible assets from acquired businesses are recognized at fair value on the acquisition date and consist of customer programs, trademarks, customer relationships, technology and other intangible assets. Customer programs include values assigned to major programs of acquired businesses and represent the aggregate value associated with the customer relationships, contracts, technology and trademarks underlying the associated program and are amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of expected cash flows used to measure fair value, which ranges from four to five years.

 

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the goodwill balance was $21,679,411 and $23,179,411, respectively. The Company tests its goodwill for impairment, at least annually, unless events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of goodwill may be impaired, the Company may look to perform such test sooner versus on an annual basis. Such events or changes in circumstances may include a significant deterioration in overall economic conditions, changes in the business climate of our industry, a decline in the Company’s market capitalization, decline in operating performance indicators, competition, or a reorganization of our business. The Company’s goodwill has been allocated to and is tested for impairment at a level referred to as the business segment. The level at which the Company test goodwill for impairment requires it to determine whether the operations below the business segment constitute a self-sustaining business for which discrete financial information is available and segment management regularly reviews the operating results which is referred to as a reporting unit.

 

We use a quantitative approach when testing goodwill. To perform the quantitative impairment test, we compare the fair value of a reporting unit to it’s carrying value, including goodwill. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds it’s carrying value, goodwill of the reporting unit is not impaired. If the carrying value of the reporting unit, including goodwill, exceeds its fair value, a goodwill impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. We generally estimate the fair value of each reporting unit using a combination of a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) analysis and market-based valuation methodologies such as comparable public company trading values and values observed in recent business acquisitions. Determining fair value requires the exercise of significant judgments, including the amount and timing of expected future cash flows, long-term growth rates, discount rates and relevant comparable public company earnings multiples and relevant transaction multiples.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - Continued

 

Due to a significant decline in our market capitalization and overall economic conditions, as well as the performance of the business, during the third quarter of 2023 we performed a quantitative goodwill impairment test at September 30, 2023 on both our reporting units that had goodwill balances recorded, SaaS and Sensors. Based on this analysis, we concluded that the carrying value of the SaaS reporting unit exceeded its estimated fair value and we recognized a goodwill impairment charge of $1,500,000 for this excess at September 30, 2023. At December 31, 2022, the Company recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $41,687,871 on two impaired reporting units, SaaS and Drones.

 

Our goodwill balance, after the impairment, of approximately $21.7 million is allocated to our Sensors and SaaS reporting units as follows: $19 million and $2.7 million, respectively.

 

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, our intangible assets balance was $9,242,659 and $11,507,653, respectively. Finite-lived intangibles are amortized to expense over the applicable useful lives, ranging from five to ten years, based on the nature of the asset and the underlying pattern of economic benefit as reflected by future net cash inflows. We perform an impairment test of finite-lived intangibles whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate their carrying value may be impaired. If events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of a finite-lived intangible may be impaired, the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset group would be compared to the asset group’s carrying value. If the asset group’s carrying amount exceeds the sum of the undiscounted future cash flows, we would determine the fair value of the asset group and record an impairment loss in net earnings.

 

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company deemed that no impairment was indicated for the carrying value of the finite-lived intangible assets.

 

Foreign Currency – The Company translates assets and liabilities of its foreign subsidiary, senseFly S.A., predominately in Swiss Franc to their U.S. dollar equivalents at exchange rates in effect as of the balance sheet date. Translation adjustments are not included in determining net income but are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company translates the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) of its foreign subsidiary at average exchange rates for the applicable period. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses, arising primarily from changes in exchange rates on foreign currency denominated revenues, certain purchases and intercompany transactions are recorded in other income (expense), net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

 

Shipping Costs – All shipping costs billed directly to the customer are directly offset to shipping costs resulting in a net expense to the Company, which is included in cost of goods sold in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, shipping costs totaled $68,966 and $75,074, respectively. For the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, shipping costs totaled $191,447 and $220,049, respectively.

 

Advertising Costs – Advertising costs are charged to operations as incurred and presented in sales and marketing expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, advertising costs were $44,701 and $139,480, respectively; and for the nine months ended were $113,119 and $303,862, respectively.

 

Vendor Concentrations – As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there was one significant vendor that the Company relies upon to perform certain services for the Company’s technology platform. This vendor provides services to the Company, which can be replaced by alternative vendors should the need arise.

 

Loss Per Common Share and Potentially Dilutive Securities Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus Common Stock, par value $0.001 (“Common Stock”) equivalents (if dilutive) related to warrants, options, and convertible instruments. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company has excluded all common equivalent shares outstanding for restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and options to purchase Common Stock from the calculation of diluted net loss per share, because these securities are anti-dilutive for the periods presented. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had 419,722 unvested RSUs, 2,777,732 options outstanding to purchase shares of Common Stock and 48,351,747 common stock warrants, and 6,275 of Series F Preferred Stock convertible into 25,100,000 shares of common stock. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had 629,367 unvested RSUs, 2,484,373 options outstanding to purchase shares of Common Stock and 6,311 shares of Series F Preferred Stock convertible into 10,179,032 shares of Common Stock, and 16,129,032 Common Stock warrants.

Segment Reporting – In accordance with ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting, (“ASC 280”), the Company identifies operating segments as components of an entity for which discrete financial information is available and is regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker in making decisions regarding resource allocation and performance assessment. The Company defines the term “chief operating decision maker” to be its chief executive officer.

 

The Company has determined that it operates in four segments:

 

  Drones, which comprises revenues earned from contractual arrangements to develop, manufacture and /or modify complex drone related products, and to provide associated engineering, technical and other services according to customer specifications.
     
  Sensors, which comprises the revenue earned through the sale of sensors, cameras, and related accessories.
     
  SaaS, which comprises revenue earned through the offering of online-based subscriptions.
     
  Corporate, which comprises corporate costs only.

 

New Accounting Pronouncements – In March 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2022-02, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures (“ASU 2022-02”), which addresses areas identified by the FASB as part of its post-implementation review of its previously issued credit losses standard, ASU 2016-13, that introduced the Current Expected Credit Loss (“CECL”) model. ASU 2022-02 eliminates the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings by creditors that have adopted the CECL model and enhances disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancings and restructurings made with borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. In addition, ASU 2022-02 requires a public business entity to disclose current-period gross write-offs for financing receivables and net investment in leases by year of origination in the vintage disclosures. ASU 2022-02 is effective for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and for periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2022-02 effective January 1, 2023 and it did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by FASB did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note 4 – Notes Receivable

 

Valqari

 

On October 14, 2020, in connection with, and as an incentive to the entry into a two-year exclusive manufacturing agreement (the “Manufacturing Agreement”) to produce a patented Drone Delivery Station for Valqari, LLC (“Valqari), the Company entered into, as payee, a Convertible Promissory Note pursuant to which the Company made a loan to Valqari in the principal aggregate amount of $500,000 (the “Note”). The Note accrues interest at a rate of three percent per annum.

 

The Note matured on April 15, 2021 (the “Maturity Date”), at which time all outstanding principal and interest that had accrued, but remained, unpaid was due. The Note provides for an automatic six-month extension of the Maturity Date under the following circumstances (i) Valqari has received in writing, (x) a good faith acquisition offer at a consideration value greater than $15,000,000, (y) such offer, upon consummation, would result in a change in control (as defined in the note) of Valqari, and (z) at such time Valqari, is actively engaged in the negotiation or finalization of such acquisition transaction; or (ii) Valqari has initiated, or is in the process of initiating, a conversion to a “C-Corporation” under the Internal Revenue Code, whereas such conversion will be completed no later than one day prior to the extended Maturity Date. Valqari was not permitted to prepay the Note prior to the Maturity Date.

 

The Note is subject to customary representations and warranties by Valqari, as well as events of default, which may lead to acceleration of the payment of the Note such as (i) failure to pay all of the outstanding principal, plus accrued interest on the Maturity Date or Extended Maturity Date, (ii) Valqari filing a petition or action under any bankruptcy, or other law, or (iii) an involuntary petition is filed again Valqari under any bankruptcy statute (that is not dismissed or discharged within 60 days). The indebtedness evidenced by the Note is subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment in full of any senior indebtedness (as defined in the Note) in existence on the date of the Note or incurred thereafter.

 

On the Maturity Date, AgEagle demanded payment of the Note, including accrued interest, however, Valqari alleged that the Maturity Date was automatically extended to October 14, 2021 (“Extended Maturity Date”), for an additional six months. Upon the Extended Maturity Date, AgEagle demanded payment of the Note, including accrued interest; however, Valqari sought a substantial discount on the amount due under the Note to compensate for alleged breaches by AgEagle under the Manufacturing Agreement. AgEagle disputes the allegations of breach and believes that it is owed a net amount by Valqari under the Manufacturing Agreement, in addition to the amount due under the Note. On November 24, 2021, Valqari made a payment of principal on the Note of $315,000. The parties are continuing to negotiate in an attempt to reach an amicable resolution of their disputes; however, AgEagle reserves the right to take legal action to collect the Note in the event that a settlement is not reached.

Note 6 – Promissory Note and Warrant

 

On December 6, 2022, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Promissory Note Purchase Agreement”) with an institutional investor (the “Investor”) which is an existing shareholder of the Company. Pursuant to the terms of the Promissory Note Purchase Agreement, the Company has agreed to issue to the Investor (i) an 8% original issue discount promissory note (the “Note”) in the aggregate principal amount of $3,500,000, and (ii) a common stock purchase warrant (the “Promissory Note Warrant”) to purchase up to 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Shares”) at an exercise price of $0.44 per share, subject to standard anti-dilution adjustments. The Note is an unsecured obligation of the Company. It has an original issue discount of 4% and bears interest at 8% per annum. The Company received net proceeds of $3,285,000 net of the original issue discount of $140,000 and $75,000 of issuance costs. The Promissory Note Warrant was not exercisable for the first six months after issuance and had a five-year term from the initial exercise date of June 6, 2023.

 

The Company determined the estimated fair value of the common stock warrants issued with the Note to be $1,847,200 using a Black-Scholes pricing model. In accordance with ASC 470-20 Debt, the Company recorded a discount of $1,182,349 on the Note based on the relative fair value of the warrants and total proceeds. At Note issuance, the Company recorded a total discount on the debt of $1,397,350 comprised of the relative fair value of the warrants, the original issue discount, and the issuance costs. The aggregate discount was being amortized into interest expense over the approximate two-year term of the Note. The Company used the following assumptions in determining the fair value of the warrants: expected term of five years, volatility rate of 135.8%, risk free rate of 3.73%, and dividend rate of 0%.

 

Beginning June 1, 2023, and on the first business day of each month thereafter, the Company shall pay 1/20th ($175,000) of the original principal amount (the “Monthly Amortization Payments”) of the Note plus any accrued but unpaid interest, with any remaining principal plus accrued interest payable in full upon the maturity date of December 31, 2024 or the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Note). In addition, to the extent the Company raises any equity capital (by private placement, public offering or otherwise), the Company shall utilize 50% of the net proceeds from such equity financing to prepay the Note, within two business days of the Company’s receipt of such funds. In the event such equity financing is provided by the Investor, pursuant to the terms of that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as June 26, 2022, or otherwise (an “Additional Investment”), the Investor shall agree to accept 50% less warrant coverage in connection with such Additional Investment, up to $3,300,000 of such Additional Investment.

Note 6 – Promissory Note and Warrant – Continued

 

On August 14, 2023, the Company and Investor entered into a Note Amendment Agreement due to the Company not making the Monthly Amortization Payments for the months of June – August 2023. Pursuant to the Note Amendment Agreement, the parties agreed to amend the Note as follows:

 

  (i) defer payment of the Monthly Amortization Payments for June 2023, July 2023 and August 2023 in the aggregate amount of $525,000 (the “Deferred Payments”), and the September Monthly Amortization Payment, in the amount of $175,000, until September 15, 2023. As of September 30, 2023, the Deferred Payments per the terms of the Amended Note were not made (see below).
     
  (ii) increase the principal amount of the Note by $595,000 so that the current principal amount of the Note is $4,095,000.

 

The Note Amendment Agreement resulted in a debt extinguishment due to the modified terms of the Note being substantially different than the original terms primarily due to the substantial increase in principal of $595,000. In accordance with ASC 470-50-40-2, the Company recorded a loss on debt extinguishment of $1,523,867 for the difference between the reacquisition price of the debt, of $4,095,000 and the net carrying amount of the extinguished debt of $2,571,133 comprised of $3,500,000 of principal less $928,867 of unamortized debt discounts and issuance costs on the original debt.

 

On September 15, 2023, the Company and Investor entered into a Warrant Exchange Agreement pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue to the Investor 5,000,000 shares of common stock in exchange for the Warrant for no consideration. The Company accounted for the incremental value of the Promissory Note Warrant modification of $190,500 as an increase in additional paid-in capital and interest expense on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). The incremental value was computed using a Black-Scholes pricing model pre and post modification and the following inputs: stock price $.19, exercise price $.44 (pre modification) and $0 (post modification), volatility of 129%, and discount rate of 4.45%.

 

On October 5, 2023, the Company and the Investor entered into a Second Note Amendment Agreement (the “Second Amendment”), which provides for the following:

 

  (i) the Deferred Payments shall be due and payable on December 15, 2023;
     
  (ii) the Amortization Payments (defined in the Note) scheduled for September 15, 2023, October 1, 2023, and November 1, 2023, shall be deferred and made part of the Amortization Payments commencing in January 2024; and
     
  (iii) 50% of any net proceeds above $2,000,000 from any equity financing between the date of the Second Amendment and December 15, 2023, shall be used to prepay the Note. The Second Amendment also partially waives the Event of Default in Section 3 (a)(vii) of the Note as a result of the resignation of a majority of the officers listed therein.

 

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recognized $84,443 and $412,188 respectively, of interest expense related to the amortization of the discounts prior to the debt extinguishment which has been included in interest expense on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). As of September 30, 2023, the unamortized discount was $0.

 

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded $75,950 and $236,172, respectively, of interest expense related to the Note in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), and as of September 30, 2023, there is $236,172 of accrued interest included in accrued liabilities on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Note 7 – Stockholders’ Equity – Continued

 

Alpha has the right, subject to certain conditions, including shareholder approval, which was obtained on February 3, 2023, to purchase up to $25,000,000 of additional shares of Series F and Series F Warrants (collectively the “Series F Option”). The Series F Option will be available for a period of eighteen months after such shareholder approval at a purchase price equal to the average of the volume weighted average price for three trading days prior to the date that Alpha gives notice to the Company that it will exercise the Series F Option.

 

Commencing from the Series F Closing Date and for a period of six months thereafter, upon any issuance by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries of Common Stock or Common Stock equivalents for cash consideration, indebtedness or a combination of units thereof (a “Subsequent Financing”), Alpha will have the right to participate in up to an amount of the Subsequent Financing equal to 50% of the Subsequent Financing on the same terms, conditions and price provided for in the Subsequent Financing. Preferred Stock has no voting rights, except that the Company shall not undertake certain corporate actions as set forth in the Certificate of Designation that would materially impact the holders of Preferred Stock without their consent.

 

On December 6, 2022, upon the issuance of the promissory note and common stock warrants with an exercise price of $0.44 (see Note 6), a down round or anti-dilution trigger event occurred resulting in the conversion rate on the Series F and the exercise price of the Series F Warrants issued with the Series F adjusting down to $0.44 from $0.62 and $0.96, respectively (the “December Down Round Trigger”). The December Down Round Trigger resulted in the Company recognizing a deemed dividend on the common stock warrants and Series F of $565,161 and $1,680,216, respectively, or aggregate deemed dividend of $2,245,377, for the incremental value to the warrant and Series F holder resulting from the reduction in exercise price and conversion price.

 

The deemed dividend on the Series F Warrants represents the difference between fair value of the Series F Warrants under the original terms before the December Down Round Trigger and the fair value of the Series F Warrants after December Down Round Trigger at the reduced exercise price. The fair value of the Series F Warrants was determined using a Black-Scholes pricing model and the following assumptions: expected life of 3 years, volatility of 150%, risk free rate of 3.77%, and dividend rate of 0%.

 

On March 9, 2023, the Company received an Investor Notice from Alpha to purchase an additional 3,000 shares of Series F Convertible Preferred (the “Additional Series F Preferred”). Each share of Additional Series F Preferred is convertible into 2,381 shares of the Company’s Common Stock per $1,000 Stated Value per share of Series F Preferred Stock, at a conversion price of $0.42 per share and associated common stock warrants to purchase up to 7,142,715 shares of Common Stock at the exercise price of $0.42 per share warrant (the “Additional Warrant”) for an aggregate purchase price of $3,000,000. The Additional Warrant is exercisable upon issuance and has a three-year term. On March 10, 2023, the Company issued and sold the Additional Series F Preferred and the Additional Warrant.

 

As a result of issuing the additional 3,000 shares of Series F Convertible Preferred, a down round or anti-dilution trigger event occurred, resulting in the conversion rate on the Series F and the exercise price of the Series F Warrants issued with the Series F adjusting down to $0.42 from $0.44 (the “March Down Round Trigger”). The March Down Round Trigger resulted in the Company recognizing a deemed dividend on the common stock warrants and Series F Preferred Stock of $38,226 and $217,750, respectively, or aggregate deemed dividend of $255,976, for the incremental value to the warrant and Series F holder resulting from the reduction in exercise price and conversion price.

 

The deemed dividend on the Series F Warrants represents the difference between fair value of the Series F Warrants under the original terms before the March Down Round Trigger and the fair value of the Series F Warrants after March Down Round Trigger at the reduced exercise price. The fair value of the Series F Warrants was determined using a Black-Scholes pricing model and the following assumptions: expected life of 3 years, volatility of 131%, risk free rate of 4.46%, and dividend rate of 0%.

Note 7 – Stockholders’ Equity – Continued

 

Upon the issuance of the Offering Shares and Warrants on June 8, 2023, a down round or anti-dilution trigger event occurred resulting in the conversion price of the remaining Series F Preferred Stock and the exercise price of the Series F Warrants adjusting down from $0.42 per share to $0.25 per share (the “June Down Round Trigger”). The June Down Round Trigger resulted in the Company recognizing a deemed dividend on the common stock warrants and Series F Preferred Stock of $787,823 and $3,867,095, respectively, or an aggregate deemed dividend of $4,654,918, for the incremental value to the warrant and Series F holder resulting from the reduction in exercise price and conversion price.

 

The deemed dividend on the Series F Warrants represents the difference between fair value of the Series F Warrants under the original terms before the down round trigger and the fair value of the Series F Warrants after down round trigger at the reduced exercise price. The fair value of the Series F Warrants was determined using a Black-Scholes pricing model and the following assumptions: expected life of 2.5 years, volatility of 106%, risk free rate of 4.28%, and dividend rate of 0%.

 

All deemed dividends to the Series F stockholder were recorded as additional paid in capital and an increase to accumulated deficit and as an increase to total comprehensive loss attributable to Common Stockholders in computing earnings per share on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

The sublease commenced June 1, 2023 and requires a total of $433,137 rental payments over a thirty-two-month term. Due to the anticipated sublease income being less than the total rental payments required on the primary lease, we recorded an impairment charge on the right-of-use asset associated with this lease of $79,287 which has been included on the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) as a lease impairment charge which is included in “Impairment” on the accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss (income). During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we recognized $24,284 of rental income on the straight-line basis as an offset to rent expenses within general and administrative expenses.

Overview

 

AgEagleAerial Systems Inc. (“AgEagle”, “Company”, “We”, “Our”, “Us”), through its wholly owned subsidiaries, is actively engaged in designing and delivering best-in-class drones, sensors and software that solve important problems for our customers. Founded in 2010, AgEagle was originally formed to pioneer proprietary, professional-grade, fixed-winged drones and aerial imagery-based data collection and analytics solutions for the agriculture industry. AgEagle’s shift and expansion from solely manufacturing fixed-wing farm drones in 2018, to offering what we believe is one of the industry’s best fixed-wing, full-stack drone solutions, culminated in 2021 when we acquired three market-leading companies engaged in producing UAS airframes, sensors and software for commercial and government use. In addition to a robust portfolio of proprietary, connected hardware and software products; an established global network of over 200 UAS resellers; and enterprise customers worldwide; these acquisitions also brought AgEagle a highly valuable workforce comprised largely of experienced engineers and technologists with deep expertise in the fields of robotics, automation, manufacturing and data science. In 2022, we succeeded in integrating all three acquired companies with AgEagle to form one global company focused on taking autonomous flight performance to a higher level.

 

AgEagle has also achieved numerous regulatory firsts, earning governmental approvals for its commercial and tactical drones to fly Beyond Visual Line of Sight (“BVLOS”) and/or Operations Over People (“OOP”) in the United States, Canada, Brazil and the European Union.

 

AgEagle is led by a proven management team with years of drone industry experience and is currently headquartered in Wichita, Kansas, where we house our business and sensor manufacturing operations; and we operate drone manufacturing operations in Lausanne, Switzerland in support of our international business activities.

 

We intend to grow our business and preserve our leadership position by developing new drones, sensors and software and capturing a significant share of the global drone market. In addition, we expect to accelerate our growth and expansion through strategic acquisitions of companies offering distinct technological and competitive advantages and have defensible IP protection in place, if applicable.

We intend to materially grow our business by leveraging our proprietary, best-in-class, full-stack drone solutions, industry influence and deep pool of talent with specialized expertise in robotics, automation, custom manufacturing and data science to achieve greater penetration of the global UAS industry – with near-term emphasis on capturing larger market share of the agriculture, energy/utilities, infrastructure and government/military verticals. We expect to accomplish this goal by first bringing three core values to life in our day-to-day operations and aligning them with our efforts to earn the trust and continued business of our customers and industry partners:

 

  Curiosity – this pushes us to find value where others aren’t looking. It inspires us to see around corners for our customers, understanding the problems they currently face or will be facing in the future, and delivering them solutions best suited for their unique needs.
     
  Passion – this fuels our obsession with excellence, our desire to try the difficult things and tackle big problems, and our commitment to meet our customers’ needs – and then surpass them.
     
  Integrity – this is not optional or situational at AgEagle – it is the foundation for everything we do, even when no one is watching.

 

35
 

 

    Key components of our growth strategy include the following:
     
  Establish three centers of excellence with respective expertise in UAS drones, sensors and software. These centers of excellence cross pollinate ideas, industry insights and skillsets to yield intelligent autonomous solutions that fully leverage AgEagle’s experienced team’s specialized knowledge and know-how in robotics, automation, custom manufacturing and data science.
     
  Deliver new and innovative solutions. AgEagle’s research and development efforts are critical building blocks of the Company, and we intend to continue investing in our own innovations, pioneering new and enhanced products and solutions that enable us to satisfy our customers – both in response to and in anticipation of their needs. AgEagle believes that by investing in research and development, the Company can be a leader in delivering innovative autonomous robotics systems and solutions that address market needs beyond our current target markets, enabling us to create new opportunities for growth.
     
  Foster our entrepreneurial culture and continue to attract, develop and retain highly skilled personnel. AgEagle’s company culture encourages innovation and entrepreneurialism, which helps attract and retain highly skilled professionals. We believe this culture is key to nurture the design and development of the innovative, highly technical system solutions that give us our competitive advantage.
     
  Effectively manage our growth portfolio for long-term value creation. Our production and development programs present numerous investment opportunities that we believe will deliver long-term growth by providing our customers with valuable new capabilities. We evaluate each opportunity independently, as well as within the context of other investment opportunities, to determine its relative cost, timing and potential for generation of returns, and thereby its priority. This process helps us make informed decisions regarding potential growth capital requirements and supports our allocation of resources based on relative risks and returns to maximize long-term value creation, which is the key objective of our growth strategy. We also review our portfolio on a regular basis to determine if and when to narrow our focus on the highest potential growth opportunities.
     
  Growth through acquisition. Through successful execution of our growth-through-acquisition strategies, we intend to acquire technologically advanced UAS companies and intellectual property that complement and strengthen our value proposition to the market. We believe that by investing in complementary acquisitions, we can accelerate our revenue growth and deliver a broader array of innovative autonomous flight systems and solutions that address specialized market needs within our current target markets and in emerging markets that can benefit from innovations in artificial intelligence-enabled robotics and data capture and analytics.

In December 2022, we unveiled our new eBee™ VISION, a small, fixed-wing UAS designed to provide real-time, enhanced situational awareness for critical intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance missions; to produce and deliver eBee™ VISION fixed-wing drones and customized command and control software that proves compatible and is in full compliance with the DoD Robotic and Autonomous System-Air Interoperability Profile (“RAS-A IOP”). In addition, three branches of European military forces have taken delivery of eBee VISION drones in 2023. In support of its sales and pre-order efforts, AgEagle’s team has been engaged in numerous live demonstrations and intensive training sessions with officials from government and military agencies across the world seeking to leverage the power of eBee VISION in their respective drone operations. In July 2023 alone, we completed a comprehensive training session with our first European military customers, who were confirmed as eBee VISION operators and qualified trainers of new users. These new customers confirmed with AgEagle’s technical teams that all operational capabilities of the eBee VISION continue to meet and exceed performance benchmarks in scouting, surveillance, usability, fast deployment and flight time, among other use case criteria specified by the international military community. We have also been working in close collaboration with our network of valued added reselling partners in France, United Kingdom, Poland, Italy and Spain, among other countries, to conduct live demonstrations and technical exchanges with prospective new customers, with emphasis on showcasing use of eBee VISION UAS for public safety and first responder missions, border patrol and a wide range of commercial applications. On September 6, 2023, the Company announced that commercial production of the eBee VISION had commenced and orders for the systems are now being accepted.

 

In May 2023, we released the new RedEdge-P™ dual high resolution and RGB composite drone sensor, representing yet another AgEagle technological advancement in aerial imaging cameras, seamlessly integrating the power and performance of the RedEdge-P and the new RedEdge-P blue cameras in a single solution. The RedEdge-P dual doubles analytical capabilities with the benefit of a single camera workflow. Its coastal blue band – the first of its kind in the market – was specifically designed for vegetation analysis of water bodies; environmental monitoring; water management; habitat monitoring, protection and restoration; and vegetation species and weeds identification, including differentiating and counting plants, trees, invasive species and weeds.

 

In April of this year, AgEagle released Field Check for the Measure Ground Control mobile app. Measure Ground Control is a complete Software-as-a-Service solution for drone program management that is available as a web app and mobile app for both iOS and Android devices. The software’s capabilities include mission and equipment management, flight control, data processing and analysis, secure data storage and sharing, online collaboration and reporting. Field Check’s unique feature set enables users to review and validate the quality of their drone-captured imagery on-site. Capturing target imagery right the first time in one trip to a project site allows users to eliminate time loss and costs associated with project reworks by ensuring data capture is complete and ready for processing into high-resolution outputs before leaving a site. Reflecting our software development team’s superb problem-solving capabilities, Field Check provides our clients with a competitive edge in their drone operations and across the industries they serve by avoiding project repeats and downtime due to data processing errors or poor image quality.

     
  We offer market-tested drones, sensors and software solutions that have earned the longstanding trust and fidelity of customers worldwide – Through successful execution of our acquisition integration strategy in 2021, AgEagle is now delivering a unified line of industry trusted drones, sensors and software that have been vigorously tested and consistently proven across multiple industry verticals and use cases. For instance, our line of eBee fixed wing drones have flown more than one million flights over the past decade serving customers spanning surveying and mapping; engineering and construction; military/defense; mining, quarries and aggregates; agriculture humanitarian aid and environmental monitoring, to name just a few. Featured in over 100 research publications globally, advanced sensor innovations developed and commercialized by AgEagle have served to forge new industry standards for high performance, high resolution, thermal and multispectral imaging for commercial drone applications in agriculture, plant research, land management and forestry. In addition, we have championed the development of end-to-end software solutions which power autonomous flight and deliver actionable, contextual data and analytics for numerous Fortune 500 companies, government agencies and a wide range of businesses in agriculture, energy and utilities, construction and other industry sectors.
     
  AgEagle was awarded a Multiple Award Schedule (“MAS”) Contract by the U.S. federal government’s General Services Administration (“GSA”) – In April 2023, the centralized procurement arm of the federal government, the GSA, awarded us with a five-year MAS contract. The GSA Schedule Contract is a highly coveted award in the government contracting space and is the result of a rigorous proposal process involving the demonstration of products and services in-demand by government agencies, and the negotiation of their prices, qualifications, terms and conditions. Contractors selling through the GSA Contract are carefully vetted and must have a proven track record in the industry. We believe that this will serve to advance our efforts to achieve deeper penetration of the government sector over the next five years.

 

37
 

 

  Our eBee TAC UAS is available for purchase for all military branches of US – We believe that the eBee TAC is ideally positioned to become an in-demand, mission critical tool for the U.S. military, government and civil agencies and our allies worldwide; and expect that this will prove to be a major growth catalyst for us in 2023, positively impacting our financial performance in the years ahead. In addition to being available for purchase under our own GSA Schedule Contract, the eBee TAC is available for purchase by U.S. government agencies and all branches of the military on GSA Schedule Contract #47QTCA18D003G, supplied by Hexagon US Federal as a standalone solution or as part of the Aerial Reconnaissance Tactical Edge Mapping Imagery System (“ARTEMIS”).
     
  Our eBeeX series of fixed wing UAS, including the eBee X, eBee Geo and eBee TAC, are the first and only drones on the market to comply with Category 3 of the sUAS Over People rules published by the FAA. It is another important testament of our commitment to providing best-in-class solutions to our commercial customers, and we believe it will serve as a key driver in the growth of eBee utilization in the United States. We further believe it will improve the business applications made possible by our drone platform for a wide range of commercial enterprises which stand to benefit from adoption of drones in their businesses – particularly those in industries such as insurance for assessment of storm damage, telecommunications for network coverage mapping and energy for powerline and pipeline inspections, just to name a few.
     
 

Our eBee X series of drones are the world’s first UAS in its class to receive design verification for BVLOS and OOP from European Union Aviation Safety Agency (“EASA”). The EASA design verification report demonstrates that the eBee X meets the highest possible quality and ground risk safety standards and, thanks to its lightweight design, effects of ground impact are reduced. As such, drone operators conducting advanced drone operations in 27 European Member States, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, and Switzerland can obtain the HIGH or MEDIUM robustness levels of the M2 mitigation without additional verification from EASA. Regulatory constraints relating to limitations of BVLOS and OOP have continued to be a gating factor to widespread adoption of commercial drone technologies across a wide range of industry sectors worldwide. Being the first company to receive this DVR from EASA for M2 mitigation is a milestone for AgEagle and our industry in the European Union and will be key to fueling growth of our international customer base.

 

In August 2022, we announced that the eBee X, eBee GEO and eBee AG were the first commercial drones to be designated with the C2 class identification label in accordance with EASA regulations. As of August 22, 2022, drone operators flying C2 labeled eBees are able to conduct missions in the “Open Category” with all the advantages that this entails. The C2 certification allows the eBee X series, with correct labelling, to fly at a horizontal distance of 30 meters from uninvolved people. By contrast, heavy drones like VTOLs or quadcopters must maintain a distance of 150 meters from people and any residential, commercial, industrial and recreational areas, limiting their operational capabilities to remote zones.

 

In early October 2023, the eBee X series of drones were designated with the C6 class identification label in accordance with European Union regulations. As of January 1, 2024, drone operators of C6-labeled eBees will be able to conduct Beyond Visual Line of Sight (“BVLOS”) operations with airspace observers over a controlled ground area in a sparsely populated environment throughout Europe. Operators simply need to submit a required declaration with their applicable National Aviation Authority indicating whether they intend to fly missions in accordance with the European Standard Scenario- (“STS-”) 01 or STS-02. The inclusion of the C6 marking alongside our C2-labeled eBee drones will significantly enhance the market advantages for our European customers. It grants access to areas and operational modes restricted to drones weighing over 4 kg, all without the requirement for formal permissions or regulatory waivers. Currently, only eBee drones possess both the C2 and C6 marking, affirming their status as the safest choice for flying over people and conducting BVLOS operations.

     
  Our global reseller network currently has more than 200 drone solutions providers in 75+ countries – By leveraging our relationships with the specialty retailers that comprise our global reseller network, AgEagle benefits from enhanced brand-building, lower customer acquisition costs and increased reach, revenues and geographic and vertical market penetration. With the integration of our 2021 Acquisitions, we can now leverage our collective reseller network to accelerate our revenue growth by educating and encouraging our partners to market AgEagle’s full suite of airframes, sensors and software as bundled solutions in lieu of marketing only previously siloed products or product lines to end users.
     
    In late 2022, we partnered with government contractor Darley to expand the market reach of AgEagle’s high performance fixed wing drones and sensors to the U.S. first responder and tactical defense markets. Distinguished as one of the nation’s longest standing government contracting organizations, Darley is expected to become a key contributor to AgEagle’s success in delivering best-in-class UAS solutions to a wide range of state and federal agencies. Providing our best-in-class autonomous flight solutions for public safety applications through trusted resellers like Darley represents an entirely new market opportunity for AgEagle and one we intend to vigorously pursue in the current year.

Impact of the Risks and Uncertainties on Our Business Operations

 

Global economic challenges, including the impact of the war, pandemics, rising inflation and supply-chain disruptions, regulatory investigations adverse labor and capital market conditions could cause economic uncertainty and volatility. The aforementioned risks and their respective impacts on the UAV industry and our operational and financial performance remains uncertain and outside of our control. Specifically, because of the aforementioned continuing risks, the our ability to access components and parts needed in order to manufacture its proprietary drones and sensors, and to perform quality testing have been, and continue to be, impacted. If either we or any of our third parties in the supply chain for materials used in our manufacturing and assembly processes continue to be adversely impacted, our supply chain may be further disrupted, limiting its ability to manufacture and assemble products.

In addition, the launch of the panchromatic series commenced in the second quarter of 2022, which resulted in higher sales last year due to immediate strong demand and orders for our next generation sensors.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, revenues were $10,819,213 as compared to $14,620,565 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, a decrease of $3,801,352, or 26.0%. The decline in revenues is mainly attributed to the eBee drone products of $2,995,313, $673,143 of our our RedEdge-P and Altum-PT™ panchromatic sensors and $132,896 of our SaaS subscription services related to our HempOverview and Ground Control platforms. Our continued innovation has demonstrated growth in our sales leading to strong demand of our products, specifically for our panchromatic sensor series, offsetting this growth are delays in our newly announced VISION drone product and Field Check for Measure Ground Control mobile app which we have just begun to deliver to marketplace. Additionally, our business continues to be negatively impacted by supply chain constraints, inflation, adverse labor market conditions and manufacturing disruptions due to the consolidation of our manufacturing facilities.

 

Cost of Sales and Gross Profit

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, cost of sales was $2,269,858 as compared to $3,407,573 for the three months ended September 30, 2022, a decrease of $1,137,715, or 33.4%.

The primary factors contributing to the decrease in our cost of sales and the gross profit margin were due to the decline in revenues from our sensor and our drone products along with significant price reduction in mid-Q2 to stimulate market demand and bring us in line specifically with competitive products manufactured in China as our products become older while awaiting the new ebee VISION. In addition, our sensor sales continue to experience supply chain pressure, because of increases in raw components and labor costs.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, cost of sales was $6,594,973 as compared to $8,622,436 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, a decrease of $2,027,463, or 23.5%.

The decrease in gross profit margin was a result of our drone products along with significant price reduction in mid-Q2 to stimulate market demand and bring us in line specifically with competitive products manufactured in China as our products become older while awaiting the new ebee VISION. In addition, our sensor sales continue to experience supply chain pressure, because of increases in raw components and labor costs.

The increase of the expense was primarily attributable to the promissory note’s original issue discount of 4% and interest at 8% per annum issued in December 2022 along with the amendment executed to the promissory note on August 14, 2023, resulting in a debt extinguishment costs of $1,523,867, also the net foreign currency transaction losses incurred by the drone (senseFly) business, the other income for the same period in 2022 was attributable to a non-cash gain on debt extinguishment associated with reductions of holdback liabilities in connection with our acquisitions of senseFly and MicaSense.

Overall, the net loss is primarily a result of a decline in our drone business due to declining revenues from sales our legacy products. In addition, due to the decrease in our sales price for eBee products for the quarter, our margins were severely impacted, diminishing our bottom-line results and reflecting a sharp decrease in our operating expenses for the quarter of approximately $2.0 million. and the $6,486,899 non-cash gain on debt extinguishment associated with reductions of holdback liabilities in connection with our acquisitions of senseFly and MicaSense realized in the third quarter of 2022.

Cash Flows

 

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 as Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022

 

As of September 30, 2023, cash on hand was $1,600,143, as compared to $4,349,837 as of December 31, 2022, a decrease of $2,749,694.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, cash used in operations was $8,829,669, a decrease of $6,339,067 or 41.8%, as compared to cash used of $15,168,736 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in cash used in operating activities was principally driven by lower sales and operating expenses which included significantly lower inventory purchases, prepaids, accounts payable, accrued expenses and contract liabilities.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, cash used in investing activities was $564,116, a decrease of $7,498,625, or 93.0%, as compared to cash used of $8,062,741 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of September 30, 2023, we had a working capital of $2,818,220. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we incurred a loss from operations of $15,023,060, a decrease of $2,994,791, or 16.6%, as compared to $18,017,851 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. While we have historically been successful in raising capital to meet its working capital needs, the ability to continue raising such capital to enable us to continue our growth is not guaranteed. We will require additional liquidity to continue its operations and meet its financial obligations over the next twelve (12) months, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We are evaluating strategies to obtain the required additional funding for future operations and the restructuring of operations to grow revenues and reduce expenses.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we raised $6,817,400 in equity from the additional sale of Series F Preferred Stock and Offering of our Common Stock.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

On September 30, 2023, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenue or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources. Since our inception, except for standard operating leases, we have not engaged in any off-balance sheet arrangements, including the use of structured finance, special purpose entities or variable interest entities. We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.

 

Inflation

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, inflation had a negative impact on the unmanned aerial vehicle systems industry, our customers and our business globally. Specifically, our ability to access components, parts and labor needed to manufacture our proprietary drones and sensors, and to perform quality testing have been, and continue to be, impacted. If either the Company or any of its third parties in the supply chain for materials used in our manufacturing and assembly processes continue to be adversely impacted, our supply chain may be further disrupted, limiting our ability to manufacture and assemble products. We expect inflation and its effects to continue to have a significant negative impact on our business.

 

Climate Change

 

Our opinion is that neither climate change, nor governmental regulations related to climate change, have had, or are expected to have, any material effect on our operations.

 

New Accounting Pronouncements

 

Recently issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”), most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to a have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
