Generally, the words "believes," "anticipates," "may," "will," "should," "expect," "intend," "estimate," "continue," and similar expressions or the negative thereof or comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including the matters set forth in this report or other reports or documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time, which could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those projected. Undue reliance should not be placed on these forward-looking statements which speak only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to update these forward-looking statements.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes thereto and other financial information contained elsewhere in this Form 10-K.

Our MD&A is comprised of significant accounting estimates made in the normal course of its operations, overview of our business conditions, results of operations, liquidity and capital resources and contractual obligations. We did not have any off balance sheet arrangements as of December 31, 2020 or 2021.

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon its financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (or "GAAP"). The preparation of those financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of its financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Background

We are a software development and services company that offers a suite of integrated computer network security products using proprietary technology. Our ongoing strategy is developing and marketing our suite of network security products to the corporate, financial, healthcare, legal, government, technology, insurance, e-commerce and consumer sectors. We plan to continue to grow our business primarily through our expanding sales channel and internally generated sales, rather than by acquisitions. We hold a 49% interest in BlockSafe Technologies, Inc., and, as of April 2021, we hold a 100% interest in Cybersecurity Risk Solutions, LLC.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the spread of COVID-19 a pandemic. This outbreak continues to spread throughout the U.S. and around the world. As a result, authorities continue to implement numerous measures to try to contain the virus, including restrictions on travel, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders, business restrictions and complete shutdowns. We are not considered an "essential business" due to the industries and customers we serve. As of, and subsequent to, December 31, 2021, we have been following the recommendations of the CDC and state/local health authorities to minimize exposure risk for our team members during the pandemic, including the temporary closure of our corporate office and having our team members work remotely. During the second quarter of 2021, we reopened our corporate office while continuing to adhere to the guidelines issued by health authorities. Many customers and vendors have transitioned to electronic submission of invoices and payments. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in longer response times from potential new customers and certain existing customers. We cannot anticipate the effect that the impairments caused by the COVID-19 pandemic will have on our fiscal 2022 or 2023 results, or the effectiveness and distributions of vaccines, boosters, and their distribution in 2022 and 2023, changes to mask mandate policies and to transitioning from a pandemic to an endemic. The pandemic has significantly impacted the economic conditions both in the United States and worldwide, with accelerated effects through the date of this Annual Report, as federal, state and local governments react to the public health crisis, creating significant uncertainties in both the worldwide and the United States economies. The situation is rapidly changing, including the onset of the ongoing subsequent waves of the virus caused by the possibility of various variants over time, and additional impacts to our business may arise that we are not aware of currently. We cannot predict whether, when or the manner in which, the conditions surrounding COVID-19 will change including the timing of lifting any restrictions or office closure requirements. We will continue to evaluate the nature and extent of COVID-19's impact to our business, consolidated results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and our results presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for future periods in 2022, 2023, or beyond.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, we believe the COVID-19 pandemic did impact our operating results as sales to customers were down 7% as compared from the year ended December 31, 2020. However, we have not observed any impairments of our assets or a significant change in the fair value of our assets due to the COVID-19 pandemic. At this time, it is not possible for us to predict the duration or magnitude of the adverse results of the outbreak and its effects on our business or results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity.

We have been following the recommendations of health authorities to minimize exposure risk for our team members, including the temporary closure of our corporate office and having team members work remotely. Most customers and vendors have transitioned to electronic submission of invoices and payments.

Management believes that cyber security is a growing requirement as the pandemic continues, more people are working remotely as well as using digital forms on a regular basis. Consequently, the market demand, in our estimation, is increasing. However, our company is also experiencing the impact of the ongoing pandemic. Currently our management is not working from our office location and impedes our ability to take full advantage of the increasing market demand. Many of our current clients have experienced a dramatic slowdown in their business, limiting their ability to have the resources to pay for our services. We still generate revenues and we anticipate, but cannot guarantee, we will have the resources to advance our video conferencing tool, SafeVchat™ and PrivacyLoK™, that provides authentication and encryption (using our existing products), for which we believe will have a great interest in the market. During the year ended December 31, 2021, we earned revenues of $74,000 from SafeVchat™ and PrivacyLoK™ and overall revenues of $193,000.

Our executive office is located at 1090 King Georges Post Road, Suite 603, Edison, NJ 08837. Our telephone number is (732) 661-9641. At December 31, 2021, we had 10 employees. Our Company's website is www.strikeforcetech.com (we are not including the information contained in our website as part of, nor should the information be relied upon or incorporated by reference into, this report on Form 10-K).

Results of Operations

FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2021 COMPARED TO THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2020

Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2021 were $193,000 compared to $207,000 for the year ended December 31, 2020, a decrease of $14,000 or 6.8%. The decrease in revenues was primarily due to a reduction in the sales of our products with impairments related to the economic consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic. Revenues are derived from software and services.

Cost of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2021 was $27,000 compared to $13,000 for the year ended December 31, 2020, an increase of $14,000, or 108%. The increase resulted from the increased fees related to certain revenues. Cost of revenues are fees related to our revenues, and as a percentage of total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2021 was 14.0% compared to 6.2% for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Research and development expenses for the year ended December 31, 2021 were $566,000 compared to $520,000 for the year ended December 31, 2020, an increase of $46,000 or 8.8%. The increase was primarily due to the increase in salaries and benefits of the personnel conducting research and development. The salaries, benefits and overhead costs of personnel conducting research and development of our software products primarily comprises our research and development expenses.

Compensation, professional fees, and selling, general and administrative (collectively, "SGA") expenses for the year ended December 31, 2021 were $9,448,000 compared to $2,350,000 for the year ended December 31, 2020, an increase of $7,098,000 or 302%. The increase was due primarily to an increase in employee stock-based compensation and professional fees. SG&A expenses consist primarily of salaries, benefits and overhead costs for executive and administrative personnel, insurance, fees for professional services, including consulting, legal, and accounting fees, plus travel costs and non-cash stock compensation expense for the issuance of stock options to employees and other general corporate expenses.

For the year ended December 31, 2021, other expense was $7,397,000 as compared to other expense of $7,412,000 for the year ended December 31, 2020, representing a decrease in other expense of ($15,000), or 0.2%. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in the loss on extinguishment of debt, the change in the fair value of derivative liabilities and debt discount amortization, offset by increases in financing costs.

Our net loss for the year ended December 31, 2021 was $17,245,000 compared to $10,088,000 for the year ended December 31, 2020, an increase of $7,157,000, or 70.9%. The increase was primarily due to the decrease in revenues, increases in employee stock-based compensation, professional fees and financing costs, offset by decreases in the loss on extinguishment of debt, the change in the fair value of derivative liabilities and debt discount amortization.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our total current assets at December 31, 2021 were $2,121,000, which included cash of $2,084,000, as compared with $203,000 in total current assets at December 31, 2020, which included cash of $162,000. Additionally, we had a stockholders' deficit in the amount of $11,589,000 at December 31, 2021 compared to a stockholders' deficit of $14,342,000 at December 31, 2020. We have historically incurred recurring losses and have financed our operations through loans, principally from affiliated parties such as our directors, and from the proceeds of debt and equity financing. We financed our operations during the year ended December 31, 2021 primarily from the sale of common shares for cash for net proceeds of $5,368,000 under the offering pursuant to Regulation A, and we received the second draw SBA Paycheck Protection assistance loan for $177,000.

Subsequent to December 31, 2021, we issued 134,853 shares of common stock for services with a fair value of $6,000.

Subsequent to December 31, 2021, we repaid convertible notes, secured notes payable and accrued interest in the aggregate of $26,000.





Going Concern

We have yet to establish any history of profitable operations. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company incurred a net loss of $17,245,000 and used cash in operating activities of $3,063,000, and at December 31, 2021, the Company had a stockholders' deficit of $11,589,000. In addition, we are in default on notes payable and convertible notes payable in the aggregate amount of $2,867,000. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are issued. The Company's financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

At December 31, 2021, the Company had cash on hand in the amount of $2,084,000. Management estimates that the current funds on hand will be sufficient to continue operations through the next twelve months. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to continue to implement its business plan. Currently, management is attempting to increase revenues by selling through a channel of distributors, value added resellers, strategic partners and original equipment manufacturers. While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to increase revenues, there can be no assurances to that effect. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to increase its customer base and realize increased revenues. No assurance can be given that any future financing, if needed, will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, if needed, it may contain undue restrictions on its operations, in the case of debt financing, or cause substantial dilution for its stockholders, in the case of equity financing.

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, result of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.





Critical Accounting Policies



Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates include those related to accounting for financing obligations, assumptions used in valuing stock instruments issued for services, assumptions used in valuing derivative liabilities, the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, and the accrual of potential liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.





Revenue Recognition

The Company follows the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASC 606 creates a five-step model that requires entities to exercise judgment when considering the terms of contracts, which includes (1) identifying the contracts or agreements with a customer, (2) identifying our performance obligations in the contract or agreement, (3) determining the transaction price, (4) allocating the transaction price to the separate performance obligations, and (5) recognizing revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied. The Company only applies the five-step model to contracts when it is probable that the Company will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the services it transfers to its clients.

The Company's revenue consists of revenue from sales and support of our software products. Revenue primarily consists of sales of software licenses and subscriptions of our ProtectID®, GuardedID®, MobileTrust®, PrivacyLoK™ and SafeVchat™ products. We recognize revenue from these arrangements ratably over the contractual service period. For service contracts, the Company's performance obligations are satisfied, and the related revenue is recognized, as services are rendered.

The Company offers no discounts, rebates, rights of return, or other allowances to clients which would result in the establishment of reserves against service revenue. Additionally, to date, the Company has not incurred incremental costs in obtaining a client contract.

Cost of revenue includes direct costs and fees related to the sale of our products.

Share-Based Payments

The Company periodically issues stock options, warrants, and shares of common stock as share-based compensation to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing costs. The Company accounts for such grants issued and vesting based on FASB ASC 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718) whereby the value of the award is measured on the date of grant and recognized as compensation expense on the straight-line basis over the vesting period. The Company recognizes the fair value of stock-based compensation within its Statements of Operations with classification depending on the nature of the services rendered.

Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. The Company evaluates embedded conversion features within its convertible debt to determine whether the embedded conversion features should be bifurcated from the host instrument and accounted for as a derivative. The fair value of the embedded derivatives are determined using the trinomial/binomial valuation method at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period.
