Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains forward-looking statements. All statements contained in this report other than statements of historical fact, including, but not limited to, statements regarding our future operating results and financial position; our business strategy, focus and plans; our market growth and trends; our products, services and expected benefits thereof; and our objectives for future operations, are forward-looking statements. The words “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” “could,” “would,” “project,” “plan,” “potentially,” “preliminary,” “likely,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy, short-term and long-term business operations and objectives, and financial needs. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, including the competitive pressures that we face; risks associated with executing our strategy; the impact of macroeconomic and geopolitical trends and events; the need to manage third-party suppliers and the distribution of our products and the delivery of our services effectively; the protection of our intellectual property assets, including intellectual property licensed from third parties; risks associated with our international operations; the development and transition of new products and services and the enhancement of existing products and services to meet customer needs; our response to emerging technological trends; the execution and performance of contracts by us and our suppliers, customers, clients and partners; the hiring and retention of key employees; risks associated with business combination and investment transactions; the execution, timing and results of any transformation or restructuring plans, including estimates and assumptions related to the cost and the anticipated benefits of the transformation and restructuring plans; the outcome of any claims and disputes; and those risks described under Item 1A. Risk Factors. Moreover, we operate in a competitive and changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the effect of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. In light of these risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, the future events and trends discussed in this report may not occur and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements. Accordingly, you should not rely on forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee that the future results, performance, or events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur. We undertake no obligation to update any of these forward-looking statements for any reason after the date of this report or to conform these statements to actual results or revised expectations.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

NOTE 1: DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Description of Business

Quantum Corporation, together with its consolidated subsidiaries (“Quantum” or the “Company”), is a leader in storing and managing digital video and other forms of unstructured data, delivering top streaming performance for video and rich media applications, along with low-cost, long-term storage systems for data protection and archiving. The Company helps customers around the world capture, create and share digital data and preserve and protect it for decades. The Company’s software-defined, hyperconverged storage solutions span from non-volatile memory express (“NVMe”), to solid state drives (“SSD”), hard disk drives (“HDD”), tape and the cloud and are tied together leveraging a single namespace view of the entire data environment. The Company works closely with a broad network of distributors, value-added resellers (“VARs”), direct marketing resellers (“DMRs”), original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) and other suppliers to meet customers’ evolving needs.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted. The Company believes the disclosures made are adequate to prevent the information presented from being misleading. However, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included within the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The unaudited consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal and recurring items, necessary to present fairly our financial position as of June 30, 2023, the results of operations and comprehensive loss, statements of cash flows, and changes in stockholder's deficit for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of full year performance because of the impact of seasonal and short-term variations.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions due to risks and uncertainties. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, the determination of standalone selling price for revenue arrangements with multiple performance obligations, useful lives of intangible assets and property and equipment, stock-based compensation and provision for income taxes including related reserves. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions which management believes to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities.

Recently Issued but not Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

None.

Less: unamortized debt issuance costs (1)	(5,794)		(3,313)
Long-term debt, net	$	95,614	$	83,104

(1) The unamortized debt issuance costs related to the Term Loan is presented as a reduction of the carrying amount of the corresponding debt balance on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Unamortized debt issuance costs related to the PNC Credit Facility are presented within other assets on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

On August 5, 2021, the Company entered into a new senior secured term loan to borrow an aggregate of $100.0 million (the “Term Loan”). Borrowings under the Term Loan mature on August 5, 2026. Principal is payable at a rate per annum equal to (a) 2.5% of the original principal balance thereof during the first year following the closing date of the Term Loan and (b) 5% of the original principal balance thereof thereafter. Principal and interest payments are payable on a quarterly basis.

On April 25, 2022, the Company entered into amendments to the Term Loan and the PNC Credit Facility (the “April 2022 Amendments”). The April 2022 Amendment, among other things, (a) amended the total net leverage ratio financial covenant and the minimum liquidity financial covenant commencing with the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2022; and; (b) replaced the benchmark rate for LIBOR Rate Loans with a rate based on the Secured Overnight

Table of Contents

Financing Rate ("SOFR"). The April 2022 Amendments were accounted for as modifications. The Company incurred $0.4 million in costs related to amendment to the Term Loan which is reflected as a reduction to the carrying amount of the Term Loan and amortized to interest expense over the remaining loan term.

On June 1, 2023, the Company entered into amendments to the Term Loan and the PNC Credit Facility (the “June 2023 Amendments”). The June 2022 Amendments, among other things, (a) amended the total net leverage ratio financial covenant commencing with the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2023; (b) amended the minimum liquidity financial covenant to adjust the minimum liquidity level; and (c) amended the “EBITDA” definition to increase the add-back cap on non-recurring items including restructuring charges during the fiscal years ended March 31, 2024 and 2025. The June 2023 Amendments to the Term Loan also provided an advance of $15.0 million in additional Term Loan borrowings (the “2023 Term Loan”) and incurred $0.9 million in original issuance discount and origination fees which have been recorded as a reduction to the carrying amount of the June 2023 Term Loan and amortized to interest expense over the remaining loan term. The terms of the 2023 Term Loan are substantially similar to the terms of the existing term loans, as amended by the Term Loan Amendment, including in relation to maturity and security, except that, among other things, (a) the applicable margin (i) for any 2023 Term Loan designated an “ABR Loan” is 9.00% per annum and (ii) for any 2023 Term Loan designated as a “SOFR Loan” is 10.00% per annum, (b) accrued interest on the 2023 Term Loan is payable in kind, and is capitalized and added to the principal amount of the 2023 Term Loan at the end of each interest period applicable thereto, (c) the 2023 Term Loan does not amortize prior to the maturity date thereof, and (d) the 2023 Term Loan may not be prepaid prior to the payment in full of the existing term loans.

In connection with the June 2023 Term Loan, the Company issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1.25 million shares (the “2023 Term Loan Warrants”) of the Company’s common stock, at an exercise price of $1.00 per share. The exercise price and the number of shares underlying the warrant are subject to adjustment in the event of specified events, including dilutive issuances at a price lower than the exercise price of the warrant (the “Down Round Feature”), a subdivision or combination of the common stock, and a reclassification of the common stock or specified dividend payments. The 2023 Term Loan Warrants are exercisable until June 1, 2033. Upon exercise, the aggregate exercise price may be paid, at each warrant holder’s election, in cash or on a net issuance basis, based upon the fair market value of the Company’s common stock at the time of exercise.

We have accounted for warrants in accordance with ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging and concluded that the warrants are to be classified as equity and therefore recorded the fair value of the warrants as a component of additional paid in capital in stockholders’ deficit. The Company determined that the fair value of the warrants was $1.2 million using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model. The assumptions used in the model are as follows: dividend rate of 0%; expected term of 10 years; volatility of 71.6%; and a risk-free rate of 3.61%.

The June 2023 Amendments to the Term Loan were accounted for as modifications. The value of the June 2023 Term Loan Warrants in addition to $0.7 million of fees paid to the lenders have been reflected as a reduction to the carrying amount of the June 2023 Term Loan and amortized to interest expense over the remaining loan term. The Company incurred $0.9 million of legal and financial advisory fees which were included in general and administrated expenses in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. The June 2023 Amendments to the PNC Credit Facility were accounted for as modifications and $0.7 million in related fees and expenses were recorded to other assets and are amortized to interest expense over the remaining term of the agreement.

As of June 30, 2023, the interest rate on the Term Loan was 11.16% and the interest rate on the PNC Credit Facility for Domestic Rate Loans and Swing Loans was 10.00%. As of June 30, 2023, the PNC Credit Facility had an available borrowing base of $34.4 million, of which $16.6 million was available to borrow at that date.

Amendment to Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with the June 2023 Amendments, the holders of warrants previously issued to certain lenders in December 2018 and June 2020 (the “Existing Warrants”) and the holder of the June 2023 Warrants entered into an amendment and joinder (the “Registration Rights Agreement Amendment”) to the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of June 16, 2020. The Registration Rights Agreement Amendment, among other things, amends the Registration Rights Agreement to grant certain registration rights for the shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the 2023 Term Loan Warrant, consistent with the registration rights granted to the holders of the Existing Warrants, including (i) the ability of a holder to request that the Company file a Form S-1 registration statement with respect to at least 40% of the registrable securities held by such holder as of

Table of Contents

the issuance date of the applicable 2023 Term Loan Warrants on or after June 1, 2023, (ii) the ability of a holder to request that the Company file a Form S-3 registration statement with respect to outstanding registrable securities if at any time the Company is eligible to use a Form S-3 registration statement, and (iii) customary piggyback registration rights, subject to certain customary limitations.

NOTE 6: RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

During the quarters ending June 30, 2023 and 2022, the Company approved certain restructuring plans to improve operational efficiencies and rationalize its cost structure.

The following tables show the activity and the estimated timing of future payouts for accrued restructuring (in thousands):

NOTE 7: NET LOSS PER SHARE

The following outstanding stock-based instruments which are comprised of performance share units, restricted stock units, and warrants were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive (in thousands):


Three Months Ended June 30,
2023						2022
7,042						2,309

The dilutive impact related to common stock from restricted stock units and warrants is determined by applying the treasury stock method to the assumed vesting of outstanding restricted stock units and the exercise of outstanding warrants. The dilutive impact related to common stock from contingently issuable performance share units is determined by applying a two-step approach using both the contingently issuable share guidance and the treasury stock method.

NOTE 8: INCOME TAXES

The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was (5.8)% and (4.2)%, respectively. The effective tax rates differed from the federal statutory tax rate of 21% during each of these periods due primarily to unbenefited losses experienced in jurisdictions with valuation allowances on deferred tax assets as well as the forecasted mix of earnings in domestic and international jurisdictions.

As of June 30, 2023, including interest and penalties, the Company had $97.6 million of unrecognized tax benefits, $78.9 million of which, if recognized, would favorably affect the effective tax rate without consideration of the valuation allowance. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had accrued interest and penalties related to these unrecognized tax benefits of $1.3 million. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to income tax matters in the income tax provision in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2023,

Table of Contents

$90.1 million of unrecognized tax benefits were recorded as a contra deferred tax asset in other long-term assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets and $7.5 million (including interest and penalties) were recorded in other long-term liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the next 12 months, it is reasonably possible that approximately $5.6 million of tax benefits, inclusive of interest and penalties, that are currently unrecognized could be recognized as a result of the expiration of applicable statutes of limitations. Upon recognition of the tax benefit related to the expiring statutes of limitation, $4.8 million will be offset by the establishment of a related valuation allowance. The net tax benefit recognized in the statements of operation is estimated to be $0.8 million.

NOTE 9: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Commitments to Purchase Inventory

The Company uses contract manufacturers for its manufacturing operations. Under these arrangements, the contract manufacturer procures inventory to manufacture products based upon the Company’s forecast of customer demand. The Company has similar arrangements with certain other suppliers. The Company is responsible for the financial impact on the supplier or contract manufacturer of any reduction or product mix shift in the forecast relative to materials that the third party had already purchased under a prior forecast. Such a variance in forecasted demand could require a cash payment for inventory in excess of current customer demand or for costs of excess or obsolete inventory. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had issued non-cancelable commitments for $32.6 million to purchase inventory from its contract manufacturers and suppliers.

On July 22, 2016, Realtime Data LLC d/b/a IXO (“Realtime Data”) filed a patent infringement lawsuit against the Company in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, alleging infringement of U.S. Patents Nos. 7,161,506, 7,378,992, 7,415,530, 8,643,513, 9,054,728, and 9,116,908. The lawsuit was thereafter transferred to the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California for further proceedings. Realtime Data asserts that the Company has incorporated Realtime Data’s patented technology into its compression products and services. On July 31, 2017, the Court in the Northern District of California stayed proceedings in this litigation pending the outcome of Inter Partes Review proceedings before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board relating to the asserted Realtime patents. In those proceedings the asserted claims of the ’506 patent, the ’992 patent, and the ’513 patent were found unpatentable. In addition, on July 19, 2019, the United States District Court for the District of Delaware issued a decision finding that all claims of the ’728 patent, the ’530 patent, and the ’908 patent are not eligible for patent protection under 35 U.S.C. § 101 (the “Delaware Action”). On appeal, the Federal Circuit vacated the decision in the Delaware Action and remanded for the Court to “elaborate on its ruling.” In opinions dated May 4, 2021 and August 23, 2021, the Court in the Delaware Action reaffirmed its earlier ruling and granted defendants’ motions to dismiss under Section 101. Realtime Data has appealed those decisions to the Federal Circuit. The Federal Circuit argument occurred on February 10, 2023 and a decision is expected sometime in the latter half of the year. The case pending against Quantum in the Northern District of California remains stayed pending the final outcome of the appeal in the Delaware Action. Quantum believes the probability that this lawsuit will have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, or financial condition is remote.

Arrow Electronics Matter

On July 27, 2023, Arrow Electronics, Inc. (“Arrow Electronics”), an electronics component distributor filed a lawsuit in a federal court in the Northern District of California against Quantum, alleging breach of contract and breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, seeking, among other things just over $4.6 million in damages. Quantum has not yet filed a responsive pleading, but it disputes Arrow Electronics’ claims and plans to aggressively defend itself against them. At this time, Quantum believes the probability that this lawsuit will have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, or financial condition is remote.

Other Commitments

Additionally, from time to time, the Company is a party to various legal proceedings and claims arising from the normal course of business activities. Based on current available information, the Company does not expect that the ultimate outcome of any currently pending unresolved matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, cash flows or financial position.

Table of Contents

products to help our customers unlock the value in their video and unstructured data in new ways to solve their most pressing business challenges.

We generate revenue by designing, manufacturing, and selling technology and services. Our most significant expenses are related to compensating employees; designing, manufacturing, marketing, and selling our products and services; data center costs in support of our cloud-based services; and interest associated with our long-term debt and income taxes.

Macroeconomic Conditions

We continue to actively monitor, evaluate and respond to the current uncertain macro environment, including the impact of higher interest rates, inflation, lingering supply chain challenges, and a stronger U.S. dollar. During the quarter we continued to experience longer sales cycle for opportunities with our enterprise as well as commercial customers.

The macro environment remains unpredictable and our past results may not be indicative of future performance.

Total revenue	$	91,787	100	$	97,074	100	$	(5,287)	(5)

Product revenue

In the three months ended June 30, 2023, product revenue decreased $2.8 million, or 5%, as compared to the same period in 2022. Primary storage systems decreased $6.2 million, or 40%, compared to the same period in 2022, driven from declines in the North American market. Secondary storage systems increased $6.7 million, or 20%, driven by higher demand in hyperscale use cases.

Service revenue

We offer a broad range of services including product maintenance, implementation, and training as well as software subscriptions. Service revenue is primarily comprised of customer field support contracts which provide standard support services for our hardware. Standard service contracts may be extended or include enhanced service, such as faster service response times.

Service and subscription revenue decreased 6% in the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022, partially driven by lower overall legacy service revenues offset by higher subscription revenue.

Royalty revenue

We receive royalties from third parties that license our LTO media patents through our membership in the LTO consortium. Royalty revenue decreased $0.5 million, or 14%, in the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 due to decreased market volume of older generation LTO media.

Gross Profit and Margin

Gross profit	$	34,933	38.1	$	34,048	35.1	$	885	300

Product Gross Margin

Product gross margin increased to 22.6% or by 220 basis points for the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared with the same period in 2022. This increase was primarily due to a more favorable mix of revenues, weighted towards our higher margin product lines, as well as improvements in our operational efficiency and logistics costs.

Service and Subscription Gross Margin

Table of Contents

Service and subscription gross margins increased 570 basis points for the three months ended June 30, 2023, as compared with the same period in 2022. This increase was primarily driven by lower overhead costs across our support and repair functions.

Royalty Gross Margin

Royalties do not have significant related cost of sales.

(dollars in thousands)	2023		% of revenue	2022		% of revenue	$ Change		% Change
Research and development	$	10,913	11.9	$	12,125	12.5	$	(1,212)	(10)

Total operating expenses	$	40,780	44.4	$	41,126	42.4	$	(346)	(1)

In the three months ended June 30, 2023, research and development expense decreased $1.2 million, or 10%, as compared with the same period in 2022. This decrease was primarily driven by cost reduction measures to consolidate acquired businesses.

In the three months ended June 30, 2023, sales and marketing expenses decreased $0.1 million, or 1%, as compared with the same period in 2022. Overall costs remain relatively flat as we pivot existing sales and marketing investment towards high-growth markets.

In the three months ended June 30, 2023, general and administrative expenses increased $0.4 million, or 3%, as compared with the same period in 2022. This increase was largely driven by project cost in our facilities and IT organizations.

In the three months ended June 30, 2023, restructuring expenses increased $0.6 million as compared with the same period in 2022. The increase was the result of cost reduction initiatives.

The change in other income (expense), net during the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared with the same period in 2022 was related primarily to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates during the three months ended June 30, 2023.

In the three months ended June 30, 2023, interest expense increased $1.1 million, or 53%, as compared with the same period in 2022 due to a higher effective interest rate on our Term Loan.

There were no debt extinguishments in the three months ended June 30, 2023. In the three months ended June 30, 2022, loss on debt extinguishment of $1.4 million was related to prepayment of our Term Loan.

Income Taxes



	Three Months Ended June 30,
(dollars in thousands)	2023		% of revenue	2022		% of revenue	$ Change		% Change
Income tax provision	$	530	1	$	410	—	$	120	29

The income tax provision for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 is primarily influenced by foreign and state income taxes. Due to our history of net losses in the United States, the protracted period for utilizing tax attributes in certain foreign jurisdictions, and the difficulty in predicting future results, we believe that we cannot rely on projections of future taxable income to realize most of our deferred tax assets. Accordingly, we have established a full valuation allowance against our U.S. and certain foreign net deferred tax assets. Significant management judgement is required in assessing our ability to realize any future benefit from our net deferred tax assets. We intend to maintain this valuation allowance until sufficient positive evidence exists to support its reversal. Our income tax expense recorded in the future will be reduced to the extent that sufficient positive evidence materializes to support a reversal of, or decrease in, our valuation allowance.

Table of Contents

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We consider liquidity in terms of the sufficiency of internal and external cash resources to fund our operating, investing and financing activities. Our principal sources of liquidity include cash from operating activities, cash and cash equivalents on our balance sheet and amounts available under our credit facility with PNC Bank, National Association (as amended from time to time, the “PNC Credit Facility”) pursuant to the Amended Restated Revolving Credit and Security Agreement dated December 27, 2018. We require significant cash resources to meet obligations to pay principal and interest on our outstanding debt, provide for our research and development activities, fund our working capital needs, and make capital expenditures. Our future liquidity requirements will depend on multiple factors, including our research and development plans and capital asset needs.

We had cash and cash equivalents of $25.5 million as of June 30, 2023, which consisted primarily of bank deposits and money market accounts. As of June 30, 2023, our total outstanding Term Loan debt was $88.6 million and we had $16.6 million available to borrow under the PNC Credit Facility.

We are subject to various debt covenants under our debt agreements including a net leverage covenant and a minimum liquidity covenant. Our failure to comply with our debt covenants could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and ability to service our obligations. On June 1, 2023, we entered into amendments to the Term Loan and the PNC Credit Facility (the “June 2023 Amendments”). The June 2022 Amendments, among other things, (a) amended the total net leverage ratio financial covenant commencing with the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2023; (b) amended the minimum liquidity financial covenant to adjust the minimum liquidity level; and (c) amended the “EBITDA” definition to increase the add-back cap on non-recurring items including restructuring charges during the fiscal years ended March 31, 2024 and 2025. The June 2023 Amendments to the Term Loan also provided an advance of $15.0 million in additional Term Loan borrowings with net proceeds of $14.1 million after original issuance discount, and origination fees. We believe we were in compliance with all covenants under our debt agreements as of the date of filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. For additional information about our debt, see the sections entitled “Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our Business Operations” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our consolidated cash flows for the periods indicated.


	Three Months Ended June 30,
(in thousands)	2023		2022
Cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities	$	(10,655)	$	(18,346)

Effect of exchange rate changes	(2)		29
Net increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	(510)	$	21,290

Cash Used In Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities was $10.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. This use of cash was primarily attributed to cash used in operations excluding changes in assets and liabilities of $5.1 million in addition to cash used from working capital changes.

Net cash used in operating activities was $18.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. This use of cash was primarily attributable to changes in working capital of $15.6 million driven by a decrease in deferred revenue of $13.6 million. The decrease in deferred revenue reflects the seasonal nature of service contract renewals.

Cash Used in Investing Activities

Table of Contents

Net cash used in investing activities was $2.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2023, which was attributable to capital expenditures.

Net cash used in investing activities was $5.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022, which was primarily attributable to capital expenditures of $3.0 million and a $2.0 million deferred business acquisition payment.

Cash Provided by Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $12.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, which was related primarily to borrowings on our Term Loan of $14.1 million.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $44.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022, which was related primarily to $66.3 million of cash received from the Rights Offering of 30 million shares of our common stock offset by a $20 million prepayment of our term debt and a term debt principal amortization payment of $0.6 million.

Commitments and Contingencies

Our contingent liabilities consist primarily of certain financial guarantees, both express and implied, related to product liability and potential infringement of intellectual property. We have little history of costs associated with such indemnification requirements and contingent liabilities associated with product liability may be mitigated by our insurance coverage. In the normal course of business to facilitate transactions of our services and products, we indemnify certain parties with respect to certain matters, such as intellectual property infringement or other claims. We also have indemnification agreements with our current and former officers and directors. It is not possible to determine the maximum potential amount under these indemnification agreements due to the limited history of our indemnification claims, and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. Historically, payments made by us under these agreements have not had a material impact on our operating results, financial position or cash flows.

We are also subject to ordinary course litigation.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

Except for the indemnification commitments described under “—Commitments and Contingencies” above, we do not currently have any other off-balance sheet arrangements and do not have any holdings in variable interest entities.

Contractual Obligations

We have contractual obligations and commercial commitments, some of which, such as purchase obligations, are not recognized as liabilities in our financial statements. There have not been any other material changes to the contractual obligations disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate estimates, which are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. We consider certain accounting policies to be critical to understanding our financial statements because the application of these policies requires significant judgment on the part of management, which could have a material impact on our financial statements if actual performance should differ from historical experience or if our assumptions were to change. Our accounting policies that include estimates that require management’s subjective or complex judgments about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain are summarized in our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 under the section entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies.” For additional information on our significant accounting policies, see Note 1 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no material changes to our quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk from those described under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, which such section is incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our principal executive and principal financial officers, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on such evaluation, our principal executive and principal financial officers have concluded that as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level described below.

Changes in Internal Control

In connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2023 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected. The design of any system of controls is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
