Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

June 30, 2021

Note A: Basis of Presentation

On July 21, 2021 a holding company reorganization was completed (the "Reorganization") in which Image Sensing Systems, Inc. ("ISNS") became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the new parent company named "Autoscope Technologies Corporation" ("Autoscope"), which became the successor issuer to ISNS. As a result of the Reorganization, Autoscope replaced ISNS as the public company trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market under the ticker symbol "AATC," and outstanding shares of ISNS's common stock automatically converted into shares of common stock of Autoscope. As used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the "Company", "we", "us" and "our" or its management or business at any time before the effective date of the Reorganization refer to those of ISNS as the predecessor company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and thereafter to Autoscope and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, except as otherwise specified or to the extend the context otherwise indicates. The Reorganization is intended to be a tax-free transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes for the Company's shareholders. Autoscope was incorporated on April 23, 2021 under the laws of the State of Minnesota, and ISNS was incorporated in Minnesota on December 20, 1984. The Company develops and markets video and radar processing products for use in applications such as intersection control, highway, bridge and tunnel traffic management and traffic data collection. We sell our products primarily to distributors and also receive royalties under a license agreement with a manufacturer/distributor for certain of our products. Our products are used primarily by governmental entities.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which require the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. It is the opinion of management that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments consisting of normal recurring accruals considered necessary for a fair presentation. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Operating results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 as filed with the SEC.

Cash Dividend

On April 28, 2021, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a cash dividend of $0.12 per share to shareholders of record on the close of business on May 10, 2021, which was paid to shareholders on May 20, 2021.

On August 10, 2021, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a cash dividend of $0.12 per share to shareholders of record on the close of business on August 23, 2021, which is payable to shareholders on August 30, 2021.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The Company believes that of its significant accounting policies, the following are particularly important to the portrayal of the Company's results of operations and financial position and may require the application of a higher level of judgment by the Company's management and, as a result, are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

We determine revenue recognition through the following steps:
●	Identification of a contract, or contracts, with a customer;
●	Identification of performance obligations in the contract;
●	Determination of the transaction price;
●	Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
●	Recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.

Revenue disaggregated by revenue source for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 consists of the following (in thousands); revenue excludes sales and usage-based taxes when or if it has been determined that we are acting as a pass-through agent:

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
	2021		2020		2021		2020
Product sales	$	1,305	$	1,172	$	2,468	$	2,222
Royalties		2,483		2,215		4,299		4,324
Total revenue	$	3,788	$	3,387	$	6,767	$	6,546

Product Sales:

Product revenue is generated primarily from the direct sales of our RTMS radar systems worldwide and our Autoscope video systems in Europe and Asia. Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers in an amount that reflects the amount we expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services.

Certain product sales may contain multiple performance obligations for revenue recognition purposes. Multiple performance obligations may include hardware, software, installation services, training, support, and extended warranties. In arrangements where we have multiple performance obligations, the transaction price is allocated to each performance obligation using the relative stand-alone selling price. We generally determine stand-alone selling prices based on the observable stand-alone prices charged to customers. For performance obligations without observable stand-alone prices charged to customers, we evaluate the adjusted market assessment approach, the expected cost plus margin approach, and stand-alone sales to estimate the stand-alone selling prices.

Revenue for services such as maintenance, repair, and technical support is recognized either as the service is performed or ratably over the defined contractual period for service maintenance contracts. From time to time, our payment terms may vary by the type and location of our customer and the products or services offered. Revenue for extended warranties are deferred until the coverage period and then recognized ratably over the extended warranty term.

We record deferred revenues when cash payments are received or due in advance of our performance, including amounts which are refundable. The term between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant. For certain products or services and customer types, we require payment before the products or services are delivered to the customer.

We record provisions against sales revenue for estimated returns and allowances in the period when the related revenue is recorded based on historical sales returns and changes in end user demand.

Royalties:

Econolite Control Products, Inc. (“Econolite”) is our licensee that sells our Autoscope video system products in the United States, Mexico, Canada and the Caribbean. The royalty of approximately 50% of the gross profit on licensed products is recognized when the products are shipped or delivered by Econolite to its customers.

Practical Expedients and Exemptions:

We generally expense sales commissions when incurred because the amortization periods would have been one year or less. These costs are recorded within sales and marketing expense.

We do not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and (ii) contracts for which we recognize revenue at the amount to which we have the right to invoice for services performed.

Inventories

Inventories are primarily electronic components and finished goods and are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value determined under the first-in, first-out accounting method.

Income Taxes

We record a tax provision for the anticipated tax consequences of our reported results of operations. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates that apply to taxable income in effect for the years in which those deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. We record a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized. We believe it is more likely than not that forecasted income, including income that may be generated as a result of certain tax planning strategies, together with the tax effects of the deferred tax liabilities, will be sufficient to fully recover the remaining net realizable value of our deferred tax assets. If all or part of the net deferred tax assets are determined not to be realizable in the future, an adjustment to the valuation allowance would be charged to earnings in the period such determination is made. In addition, the calculation of tax liabilities involves significant judgment in estimating the impact of uncertainties in the application of complex tax laws. Resolution of these uncertainties in a manner inconsistent with management’s expectations could have a material impact on our financial condition and operating results. We recognize penalties and interest expense related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense.

Intangible Assets

We capitalize certain software development costs related to software to be sold, leased, or otherwise marketed. Capitalized software development costs include purchased materials, services, internal labor and other costs associated with the development of new products and services. Software development costs are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility has been established, at which time future costs incurred are capitalized until the product is available for general release to the public. Based on our product development process, technological feasibility is generally established once product and detailed program designs have been completed, uncertainties related to high-risk development issues have been resolved through coding and testing, and we have established that the necessary skills, hardware, and software technology are available for production of the product. Once a software product is available for general release to the public, capitalized development costs associated with that product will begin to be amortized to cost of sales over the product's estimated economic selling life, using the greater of straight-line or a method that results in cost recognition in future periods that is consistent with the anticipated timing of product revenue recognition.

Capitalized software development costs are subject to an ongoing assessment of recoverability, which is impacted by estimates and assumptions of future revenues and expenses for these software products, as well as other factors such as changes in product technologies. Any portion of unamortized capitalized software development costs that are determined to be in excess of net realizable value have been expensed in the period in which such a determination is made. Subsequent to reaching technological feasibility for certain software products, we capitalized approximately $55,000 in software development costs in the quarter ended June 30, 2021 and no software development costs during the comparable prior year quarter, and $178,000 and $22,000 during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected period to be benefited by future cash flows and reviewed for impairment. At both June 30, 2021 and 2020, we determined there was no impairment of intangible assets. At both June 30, 2021 and 2020, there were no indefinite-lived intangible assets.

Note B: Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting pronouncements recently adopted

In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2018-13, "Fair Value Measurements (Topic 820)." ASU 2018-13 eliminates, amends and adds disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 is required to be adopted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within that annual period, which is our fiscal year 2020. We adopted these changes as of January 1, 2020; however, there are no required changes that apply to our fair value measurements disclosures.

Note C: Fair Value Measurements

The guidance for fair value measurements establishes the authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value and outlines the required disclosures regarding fair value measurements. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. We use a three-tier fair value hierarchy based upon observable and non-observable inputs as follows:

	Level 1:	observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
	Level 2:	inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
	Level 3:	unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

Financial Instruments not Measured at Fair Value

Certain of our financial instruments are not measured at fair value and are recorded at carrying amounts approximating fair value, based on their short-term nature or variable interest rate. These financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other current financial assets and liabilities.

Note D: Inventories

Inventories consisted of the following (in thousands):

	June 30, 2021		December 31, 2020
Finished goods	$	623	$	661
Components		100		109
Total	$	723	$	770

Note E: Operating Leases

The Company is subject to various non-cancelable operating leases for office space and IT equipment expiring at various dates through November 2022. These leases do not have significant rent escalation, holidays, concessions, leasehold improvement incentives, or other build-out clauses. Further, the leases do not contain contingent rent provisions.

Most of these leases include an option to renew. The exercise of lease renewal options is typically at our sole discretion; therefore, the majority of renewals to extend the lease terms are not included in our right-of-use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities because they are not reasonably certain of exercise. We regularly evaluate the renewal options and, when they are reasonably certain of exercise, we include the renewal period in our lease term.

Because most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of the lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate represents an estimate of the interest rate we would incur at lease commencement to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments on a collateralized basis over the term of a lease. We used incremental borrowing rates as of January 1, 2019 for operating leases that commenced prior to that date. We have a centrally managed treasury function; therefore, based on the applicable lease terms and the current economic environment, we apply a portfolio approach for determining the incremental borrowing rate.

The cost components of our operating leases were as follows (in thousands):

	Three-Month Periods Ended June 30,				Six-Month Periods Ended June 30,
	2021		2020		2021		2020
Operating lease costs	$	53	$	65	$	108	$	131
Variable lease cost		51		93		93		169

Variable lease costs consist primarily of property taxes, insurance, and common area or other maintenance costs for our leased facilities and equipment, which are paid based on actual costs incurred by the lessor.

Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of operating lease liabilities was $107,000 and $134,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and these amounts are included in operating activities in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. There were no operating lease assets obtained in exchange for new operating lease liabilities for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, except that during the three months ended June 30, 2020, we agreed to a one-year extension of our office space which increased operating lease assets and liabilities by $194,000.

On July 28, 2021 ISNS and Spruce Tree Centre L.L.P. entered into Amendment XV to Office Lease Agreement (the "Amendment"), which amended the original Office Lease Agreement dated as of November 24, 1998 by and between ISNS and Spruce Tree (the "Original Lease"), as such Original Lease was subsequently amended (as so amended, the "Lease"). The Amendment was signed by Spruce Tree on July 28, 2021. The Lease term was to expire on July 31, 2021. The Amendment, which is effective August 1, 2021, extends the Lease through March 31, 2022. In addition, the Amendment increases the monthly rent from $16,660 to $16,960 for the period from August 1, 2021 through March 31, 2022.

Note H: Stock-Based Compensation

We compensate officers, directors, key employees and consultants with stock-based compensation under the Image Sensing Systems, Inc. 2014 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the "2014 Plan"), which was approved by our shareholders and is administered under the supervision of our Board of Directors. Stock option awards are granted at exercise prices equal to the closing price of our stock on the day before the date of grant. Generally, options vest ratably over periods of three to five years from the dates of the grant, beginning one year from the date of grant, and have a contractual term of nine to 10 years.

Compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, is recognized ratably over the vesting period. Stock-based compensation expense included in general and administrative expense for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was $54,000 and $54,000, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense included in general and administrative expense for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was $107,000 and $113,000, respectively. At June 30, 2021, 257,175 shares were available for grant under the Company's 2014 Plan.

Stock Options

A summary of the stock option activity for the first six months of 2021 is as follows:

	Number of Shares			Weighted Average Exercise Price per Share		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (in years)		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Options outstanding at December 31, 2020		15,000		$	4.76		2.94	$	2,700
Granted		—		$	—		—	$	—
Exercised		(2,000	)	$	4.22		—	$	9,390

Options outstanding at June 30, 2021		12,000		$	4.90		2.33	$	23,460
Options exercisable at June 30, 2021		12,000		$	4.90		2.33	$	23,460

Stock options to purchase 2,000 shares were exercised, no stock options expired, and options to purchase 1,000 shares were forfeited during the six-month period ended June 30, 2021, and options to purchase 1,000 shares forfeited during the six-month period ended June 30, 2020. During each of the six-month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, we recognized no stock-based compensation expense related to stock options. As of June 30, 2021, there was no unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options.

Restricted Stock Awards and Stock Awards

Restricted stock awards are granted under the 2014 Plan at the discretion of the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors. We issue restricted stock awards to executive officers and key consultants. These awards may contain certain performance conditions or time-based vesting criteria. The restricted stock awards granted to executive officers vest if the various performance or time-based metrics are met. Stock-based compensation is recognized for the number of awards expected to vest at the end of the period and is expensed beginning on the grant date through the end of the vesting period. At the time of vesting of the restricted stock awards, the recipients of common stock may request to receive a net of the number of shares required for employee withholding taxes, which can be withheld up to the relevant jurisdiction's maximum statutory rate. Compensation expense related to any stock awards issued to employees is determined on the grant date based on the publicly-quoted fair market value of our common stock and is charged to earnings on the grant date.

We also issue stock awards as a portion of the annual retainer for each director on a quarterly basis. The stock awards are fully vested at the time of issuance.

The following table summarizes restricted stock award activity for the first six months of 2021:

	Number of Shares			Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Awards outstanding December 31, 2020	33,330		$	4.52
Granted	19,562			5.95
Vested	(34,295	)		4.69
Forfeited	—			—
Awards outstanding at June 30, 2021	18,597		$	5.72

As of June 30, 2021, the total stock-based compensation expense related to non-vested awards not yet recognized was $91,000, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.87 years. During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, we recognized $107,000 and $113,000, respectively, of stock-based compensation expense related to restricted stock awards.

Note I: Income (loss) per Common Share

Net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the daily weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the applicable periods. Diluted net income (loss) per share includes the potentially dilutive effect of common shares subject to outstanding stock options and restricted stock awards using the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, shares subject to certain outstanding stock options and restricted stock awards have been excluded from the calculation of the diluted weighted average shares outstanding because the exercise of those options or the vesting of those restricted stock awards would lead to a net reduction in common shares outstanding. As a result, stock options and restricted stock awards to acquire 2,000 and 15,000 weighted common shares have been excluded from the diluted weighted shares outstanding for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and 2,000 and 5,000 weighted common shares have been excluded from the diluted weighted shares outstanding for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

A reconciliation of net income per share is as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

Note J: Segment Information

The Company's Chief Executive Officer and management regularly review financial information for the Company's discrete operating segments. Based on similarities in the economic characteristics, nature of products and services, production processes, type or class of customer served, method of distribution and regulatory environments, the operating segments have been aggregated for financial statement purposes and categorized into two reportable segments: Intersection and Highway.

Autoscope video is our machine-vision product line, and revenue consists of royalties (all of which are received from Econolite), as well as a portion of international product sales. Video products are normally sold in the Intersection segment. RTMS is our radar product line, and revenue consists of international and North American product sales. Radar products are normally sold in the Highway segment. All segment revenues are derived from external customers.

Operating expenses and total assets are not allocated to the segments for internal reporting purposes. Due to the changes in how we manage our business, we may reevaluate our segment definitions in the future.

The following tables set forth selected unaudited financial information for each of our reportable segments (in thousands):

Note K: Restructuring and Exit Activities

In the third quarter of 2016, in order to streamline our operating and cost structure, we initiated the closure of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, Image Sensing Systems HK Limited (ISS HK) in Hong Kong; Image Sensing Systems (Shenzhen) Limited (ISS WOFE) in China; Image Sensing Systems Europe Limited (ISS Europe) in the United Kingdom; Image Sensing Systems Europe Limited SP.Z.O.O (ISS Poland) in Poland; and Image Sensing Systems Germany, GmbH (ISS Germany) in Germany. At December 31, 2018, Image Sensing Systems Europe Limited and Image Sensing Systems Europe Limited SP.Z.O.O were fully closed. At December 31, 2019, Image Sensing Systems Germany, GmbH was fully closed. During 2020, we initiated the closure of Image Sensing Systems EMEA Limited (ISS UK) and Image Sensing Systems Holdings Limited (ISS Holdings). At June 30, 2021, Image Sensing Systems (Shenzhen) Limited was fully closed. We incurred $23,000 and $32,000 for these entities' closure costs in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, respectively.

Note L: Commitments and Contingencies

Debt

Under the Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP"), the United States Small Business Administration ("SBA") approved the Company's application to receive a loan in the amount of $923,700 (the "PPP Loan"). The PPP was established under the congressionally approved Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act") and is administered by the SBA. The PPP Loan to the Company was made through BMO Harris Bank N.A. (the "Lender"). On April 21, 2020, the Company's Board of Directors approved the PPP Loan, and the Company signed the promissory note (the "Note") evidencing the PPP Loan, which was dated as of April 17, 2020. The Lender distributed the $923,700 of proceeds of the PPP Loan to the Company on April 22, 2020.

The term of the PPP loan was 24 months after the date of the Note (the "Maturity Date"). The annual interest rate on the PPP Loan was 1.00%. No payments of principal or interest were due during the six months beginning on the date of the Note (the "Deferred Period"). The Company's obligations under the Note were not secured by a security interest in the Company's assets. The Note required the Lender's consent if the Company wanted to reorganize, merge, consolidate, or otherwise change its ownership or structure. The Note contained customary events of default by the Company relating to, among other things, payment defaults and the breach of representations and warranties or other provisions of the Note. Upon a default by the Company under the Note, the Lender could have accelerated the Company's obligations under the Note and pursued its rights against the Company under applicable law, including by filing suit and obtaining a judgment against the Company.

Under the terms of the CARES Act, PPP loan recipients can apply for and be granted forgiveness for all or a portion of loans made under the PPP after 24 weeks if the recipients use the PPP loan proceeds for eligible purposes, including payroll costs, mortgage interest, rent or utility costs and meet other requirements regarding, among other things, the maintenance of employment and compensation levels. On February 2, 2021, the Company was notified by the Lender that the Lender had received payment in full of the PPP Loan from the United States government, and the Company's PPP Loan had been forgiven. The Company recognized the amount of the loan and accrued interest forgiven totaling approximately $931,000 as other non-operating income in the first quarter of 2021.

The foregoing description of the Note does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Note filed as Exhibit 10.1 with the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 23, 2020 and incorporated herein by reference.

Litigation

We are involved from time to time in various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business, including primarily commercial, product liability, employment and intellectual property claims. In accordance with GAAP, we record a liability in our Consolidated Financial Statements with respect to any of these matters when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. With respect to any currently pending legal proceedings, we have not established an estimated range of reasonably possible additional losses either because we believe that we have valid defenses to claims asserted against us or the proceeding has not advanced to a stage of discovery that would enable us to establish an estimate. We currently do not expect the outcome of these matters to have a material effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Litigation, however, is inherently unpredictable, and it is possible that the ultimate outcome of one or more claims asserted against us could adversely impact our results of operations, financial position or cash flows. We expense legal costs as incurred.

Note M: Risks and Uncertainties

In December 2019, the outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus, called COVID-19, originated in Wuhan, China, and has since spread worldwide, including to the U.S. To date, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused widespread disruptions to the U.S. and global economy and has contributed to significant volatility and negative pressure in financial markets. The global impact of the outbreak is continually evolving and, as additional cases and variants of the virus are identified, many countries, including the U.S., have reacted by instituting quarantines, restrictions on travel, and mandatory closures of businesses. Certain states and cities, including where we or the third parties with whom we engage operate, have also reacted by instituting quarantines, restrictions on travel, “stay at home” rules, restrictions on types of business that may continue to operate, and restrictions on the types of construction projects that may be undertaken.

The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts our business, financial condition and results of operations will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with any confidence, including the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic; the actions taken to contain the pandemic or mitigate its impact, including the adoption, effectiveness, and availability of COVID-19 vaccines; the effect of any relaxation of current restrictions in the community and regions in which we, our customers and end users do business; and the direct and indirect economic effects of the pandemic and containment measures, among others. The rapid development and fluidity of this situation preclude any prediction as to the full adverse impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Nevertheless, the COVID-19 pandemic has affected, and may continue to adversely affect, our business, financial condition and results of operations, and it has had, and probably will continue to have, the effect of exacerbating many of the risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 including, but not limited to, the following:

We currently rely on third parties to, among other things, manufacture, supply and market our products and supply other goods and services to run our business. If any such third party is adversely impacted by restrictions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, including staffing shortages, production slowdowns, the closure of facilities, and disruptions in delivery systems, our supply chain may be disrupted, which could limit our ability to manufacture our products and conduct research and development.
We have established a work-from-home policy for all employees, other than those who are performing or supporting business-critical operations or other essential activities. Our increased reliance on personnel working from home may negatively impact productivity or disrupt, delay or otherwise adversely impact our business. In addition, this could increase our cyber security risks, create data accessibility concerns, and make us more susceptible to communication disruptions, any of which could adversely impact our business operations or delay necessary interactions with governmental authorities, third party manufacturers and manufacturing sites, customers and end users, and other important agencies and third parties.
The trading prices for our common stock have been highly volatile as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, we may face difficulties raising capital through any sales of our common stock, or such sales may be on unfavorable terms. In addition, a recession, depression or other sustained adverse market event resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic could materially and adversely affect our business and the value of our common stock.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

Reorganization. On July 21, 2021, a holding company reorganization was completed (the “Reorganization”) in which Image Sensing Systems, Inc. ("ISNS") became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the new parent company named “Autoscope Technologies Corporation” ("Autoscope"), which became the successor issuer to ISNS. As a result of the Reorganization, Autoscope replaced ISNS as the public company trading on the Nasdaq Stock Market under the ticker symbol “AATC,” and outstanding shares of ISNS’s common stock automatically converted into shares of common stock of Autoscope. As used in this Quarterly Report Form 10-Q, the "Company", "we", "us" and "our" or its management or business at any time before the effective date of the Reorganization refer to those of ISNS as the predecessor company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and thereafter to Autoscope and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, except as otherwise specified or to the extent the context otherwise indicates. The Reorganization is intended to be a tax-free transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes for the Company’s shareholders. Autoscope was incorporated on April 23, 2021 under the laws of the State of Minnesota, and ISNS was incorporated in Minnesota on December 20, 1984.

General. We are a leading provider of above-ground detection products and solutions for the intelligent transportation systems (“ITS”) industry. Our family of products, which we market as Autoscope® video or video products (“Autoscope”), RTMS® radar or radar products (“RTMS”), and IntellitraffiQ® or iQ products, provides end users with the tools needed to optimize traffic flow and enhance driver safety. Our technology analyzes signals from sophisticated sensors and transmits the information to management systems and controllers or directly to users. Our products provide end users with complete solutions for the intersection and transportation markets.

Our technology is a process in which software, rather than humans, examines outputs from various types of sophisticated sensors to determine what is happening in a field of view. In the ITS industry, this process is a critical component of managing congestion and traffic flow. In many cities, it is not possible to build roads, bridges and highways quickly enough to accommodate the increasing congestion levels. On average, United States commuters lose 99 hours a year in congestion, which costs motorists $88 billion a year in time, an average of $1,377 per driver (per INRIX 2019 Global Traffic scorecard). We believe this growing use of vehicles will make our ITS solutions increasingly necessary to complement existing and new roadway infrastructure to manage traffic flow and optimize throughput.

We believe our solutions are technically superior to those of our competitors because they have a higher level of accuracy, limit the occurrence of false detection, are generally easier to install with lower costs of ownership, work effectively in a multitude of light and weather conditions, and provide end users the ability to manage inputs from a variety of sensors for a number of tasks. It is our view that the technical advantages of our products make our solutions well suited for use in ITS markets.

We believe the strength of our distribution channels positions us to increase the penetration of our technology‑driven solutions in the marketplace. We market our Autoscope video products in the United States, Mexico, Canada and the Caribbean through exclusive agreements with Econolite Control Products, Inc. (“Econolite”), which we believe is the leading distributor of ITS intersection control products in these markets.

We market the RTMS radar systems to a network of distributors globally. On a limited basis, we may sell directly to the end user. We market our Autoscope video products outside the United States, Mexico, Canada and the Caribbean through a combination of distribution and direct sales channels through our office in Spain. Our end users primarily include governmental agencies and municipalities.

The following discussion of period-to-period changes and trends in financial statement results under "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" aligns with the financial statement presentation discussed above.

Trends and Challenges in Our Business

We believe the expected growth in our business can be attributed primarily to the following global trends:

worsening traffic caused by increased numbers of vehicles in metropolitan areas without corresponding expansions of road infrastructure and the need to automate safety, security and access applications for automobiles and trucks, which has increased demand for our products;
advances in information technology, which have made our products easier to market, implement and integrate;
the continued funding allocations for centralized traffic management services and automated enforcement schemes, which have increased the ability of our primary end users to implement our products; and
general increases in the cost effectiveness of electronics, which make our products more affordable for end users.

We believe our continued growth primarily depends upon:

continued adoption and governmental funding of ITS and other automated applications for traffic control, safety and enforcement in developed countries;
a propensity by traffic engineers to implement lower cost technology-based solutions rather than civil engineering solutions such as widening roadways;
countries in the developing world adopting above-ground detection technology, such as video or radar, instead of in-pavement loop technology to manage traffic; and

our ability to develop new products that provide increasingly accurate information and enhance the end users' ability to cost-effectively manage traffic and environmental issues.

Because the majority of our end users are governmental entities, we are faced with challenges related to potential delays in purchasing decisions by those entities and changes in budgetary constraints. These contingencies could result in significant fluctuations in our revenue among periods. The ongoing economic environment in Europe and the United States and the COVID-19 pandemic declared in March 2020 and the outbreak of new COVID-19 variants are further adding to the unpredictability of purchasing decisions, creating more delays than usual and decreasing governmental budgets, and they are likely to continue to affect our revenue.

Key Financial Terms and Metrics

Revenue. We derive revenue from two sources: (1) royalties received from Econolite for sales of the Autoscope video systems in the United States, Mexico, Canada and the Caribbean and (2) revenue received from the direct sales of our RTMS radar systems and our Autoscope video systems in Europe and Asia. Autoscope video royalties are calculated using a profit sharing model in which the gross profits on sales of product made through Econolite are shared equally with Econolite. This royalty arrangement has the benefit of decreasing our cost of revenues and our selling, marketing and product support expenses because these costs and expenses are borne primarily by Econolite. Although this royalty model has a positive impact on our gross margin, it also negatively impacts our total revenue, which would be higher if all the sales made by Econolite were made directly by us. The royalty arrangement is exclusive under the long-term Manufacturing, Distributing and Technology Agreement dated as of June 11, 1991, as amended (the “Econolite Agreement”), between the Company and Econolite.

Cost of Revenue. Software amortization is the sole cost of revenue related to royalties, as virtually all manufacturing, warranty and related costs are incurred by Econolite. Cost of revenue related to product sales consists primarily of the amount charged by our third party contractors to manufacture hardware products, whose costs are influenced mainly by the cost of electronic components. The cost of revenue also includes logistics costs, estimated expenses for product warranties, and inventory obsolescence. The key metric that we follow is achieving certain gross margin percentages on product sales by operating segment.

Operating Expenses. Our operating expenses fall into three categories: (1) selling, marketing and product support; (2) general and administrative; and (3) research and development. Selling, marketing and product support expenses consist of various costs related to sales and support of our products, including salaries, benefits and commissions paid to our personnel; commissions paid to third parties; travel, trade show and advertising costs; second-tier technical support for Econolite; and general product support, where applicable. General and administrative expenses consist of certain corporate and administrative functions that support the development and sales of our products and provide an infrastructure to support future growth. These expenses include management, supervisory and staff salaries and benefits; legal and auditing fees; travel; rent; and costs associated with being a public company, such as board of director fees, listing fees and annual reporting expenses. Research and development expenses consist mainly of salaries and benefits for our engineers and third party costs for consulting and prototyping. We measure all operating expenses against our annually approved budget, which is developed with achieving a certain operating margin as a key focus. We also include any restructuring costs in operating expenses.

Non-GAAP Operating Measures. We provide certain non-GAAP financial information as supplemental information to financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States). This non-GAAP information excludes the impact of depreciating fixed assets and amortizing intangible assets, and it may exclude other non-recurring items. Management believes that this presentation facilitates the comparison of our current operating results to historical operating results. Management uses this non-GAAP information to evaluate short-term and long-term operating trends in our core operations. Non-GAAP information is not prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for or an alternative to GAAP financial measures and may not be computed the same as similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Reconciliations of GAAP income from operations to non-GAAP income from operations are as follows (in thousands):

	Three-Month Periods Ended June 30,				Six-Month Periods Ended June 30,
	2021		2020		2021		2020

Income from operations	$	904	$	371	$	1,315	$	96
Adjustments to reconcile to non-GAAP income
Amortization of intangible assets		195		188		382		362
Depreciation		40		62		80		118
Non-GAAP income from operations	$	1,139	$	621	$	1,777	$	576

Seasonality. Our quarterly revenues and operating results have varied significantly in the past due to the seasonality of our business. Our first quarter generally is the weakest due to weather conditions that make roadway construction more difficult in parts of North America, Europe and northern Asia. We expect such seasonality to continue for the foreseeable future. Additionally, our international revenues regularly contain individually significant sales. This can result in significant variations of revenue between periods. Accordingly, we believe that quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our financial results should not be relied upon as an indication of our future performance. No assurance can be given that we will be able to achieve or maintain profitability on a quarterly or annual basis in the future.

Segments. We currently operate in two reportable segments: Intersection and Highway. Autoscope video is our machine-vision product line, and revenue consists of royalties (all of which are received from Econolite), as well as a portion of international product sales. Video products are normally sold in the Intersection segment. RTMS and IntellitraffiQ are our radar product lines, and revenue consists of sales to external customers. Radar products are normally sold in the Highway segment. As a result of business model changes and modifications in how we manage our business, we may reevaluate our segment definitions in the future.

Total revenue increased to $3.8 million in the three-month period ended June 30, 2021 from $3.4 million in the same period in 2020, an increase of 11.8%, and increased to $6.8 million in the first six months of 2021 from $6.5 million in the same period in 2020, an increase of 3.4%. Royalty income increased to $2.5 million in the second quarter of 2021 from $2.2 million in the second quarter of 2020, an increase of 12.1%, and remained constant at $4.3 million in the first six months of 2021 and in the first six months of 2020. Product sales increased to $1.3 million in the second quarter of 2021 from $1.2 million in the second quarter of 2020, an increase of 11.3%, and increased to $2.5 million in the first six months of 2021 from $2.2 million in the first six months of 2020, an increase of 11.1%.

Revenue for the Intersection segment increased to $2.6 million in the second quarter of 2021 from $2.5 million in the second quarter of 2020, an increase of 7.0%. Revenue for the Intersection segment decreased to $4.5 million in the first six months of 2021 from $4.7 million in the first six months of 2020, a decrease of 3.9%. Revenue for the Highway segment increased to $1.2 million in the second quarter of 2021 from $922,000 in the second quarter of 2020, an increase of 24.8%. Revenue for the Highway segment increased to $2.2 million in the first six months of 2021 from $1.8 million in the first six months of 2020, an increase of 22.2%.

Gross margin percent for product sales decreased to 44.1% in the three months ended June 30, 2021 from 55.6% in the three months ended June 30, 2020. The dollar amount of product sales gross profit decreased $77,000, or 11.8%, in the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the prior year period. Gross margin percent for product sales decreased to 45.6% in the first six months of 2021 from 52.7% in the first six months of 2020. Product sales gross profit decreased $46,000 or 3.9% in the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the prior year period. The decrease in product gross margin percent was primarily the result of a reduction in the warranty reserve in the first six months of 2020 and no comparable reduction in the same period in 2021.

Gross margin percent for royalty sales for the three months ended June 30, 2021 increased to 96.1% from 95.9% in the same period in 2020. Gross profit from royalties increased $262,000, or 12.3%, in the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the prior year period. Gross margin percent for royalty sales for the six months ended June 30, 2021 decreased to 95.6% from 95.8% in the same period in 2020. Gross profit from royalties decreased $32,000, or 0.8%, in the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the prior year period. The decrease in royalty gross margin percent was due to decreased royalty sales during the first six months of 2020, as well as slightly higher software amortization expense.

Selling, general and administrative expense was $1.5 million, or 40.0% of total revenue, in the second quarter of 2021 compared to $1.6 million, or 46.1% of total revenue in the second quarterof 2020, and it decreased to $2.9 million, or 42.6% of total revenue, in the first six months of 2021 compared to $3.5 million, or 53.0% of total revenue, in the first six months of 2020. The year-over-year decrease for the first six months is due to the incremental consulting and legal costs incurred in 2020 related to the efforts around evaluating strategic alternatives. The savings realized in the first six months of 2021 were partially offset by legal and consulting fees associated with the formation of Autoscope.

Research and development expense decreased to $541,000, or 14.3% of total revenue, in the three-month period ended June 30, 2021, from $842,000, or 24.9% of total revenue, in the three-month period ended June 30, 2020, and it decreased to $1.0 million or 15.3% of total revenue, in the six-month period ended June 30, 2021 from $1.7 million, or 26.6% of total revenue, in the six-month period ended June 30, 2020. The decrease was due to higher capitalized software development costs in the six-month period ended June 30, 2021 of $178,000 compared to capitalized software costs of $22,000 for the same period in 2020. After normalizing for software development costs, overall research and development expenditures decreased in the six-month period ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in the prior year due to lower headcount.

The Company recognized other income of $931,000 for the forgiveness of the Paycheck Protection Program loan and accrued interest during the first six months of 2021.

There was $152,000 and $221,000 of income tax expense recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $357,000 and $57,000 of income tax expense recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Consolidated net income was $752,000, or $0.14 per basic share and diluted share, in the three-month period ended June 30, 2021 compared to a net income of $150,000, or $0.03 per basic and diluted share, in the comparable prior year period. Consolidated net income was $1.9 million, or $0.35 per basic and diluted share, in the six-month period ended June 30, 2021 compared to a net income of $39,000, or $0.01 per basic and diluted share, in the comparable prior year period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 2021, we had $8.4 million in cash and cash equivalents compared to $8.6 million in cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2020.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $709,000 in the first six months of 2021 compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $969,000 in the same period in 2020. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities in the first six months of 2021 compared to the prior year period is primarily attributed to an increase in accounts receivable and a decrease in accounts payable.

Net cash used for investing activities was $186,000 for the first six months of 2021 compared to net cash used for investing activities of $124,000 in the same period in 2020. The increase of the amount of net cash used for investing activities in the first six months of 2021 compared to the prior year period was primarily the result of higher capitalized internal software development costs compared to the prior year period.

Net cash used for financing activities was $671,000 in the first six months of 2021 compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $918,000 in the same period in 2020 due to a cash dividend of $0.12 per share to shareholders paid to shareholders in the second quarter ended June 30, 2021, whereas in the second quarter of 2020, we received the proceeds from the PPP loan.

We believe that cash and cash equivalents on hand at June 30, 2021 and cash provided by operating activities will satisfy our projected working capital needs, investing activities, and other cash requirements for at least one year from June 30, 2021.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not participate in transactions or have relationships or other arrangements with an unconsolidated entity, including special purpose and similar entities, or other off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. The accounting policies used in preparing our interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 are set forth elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and should be read in conjunction with those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and the risk factor set forth in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Cautionary Statement:

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements represent our expectations or beliefs concerning future events and can be identified by the use of forward-looking words such as "expects," "believes," "may," "will," "should," "intends," "plans," "estimates," or "anticipates" or other comparable terminology. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the results described in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such differences include, but are not limited to:

our historical dependence on a single product for most of our revenue;
budget constraints by governmental entities that purchase our products, including constraints caused by declining tax revenue;
the continuing ability of Econolite to pay royalties owed;

the mix of and margin on the products we sell;
our dependence on third parties for manufacturing and marketing our products;
our dependence on single-source suppliers to meet manufacturing needs;
our failure to secure adequate protection for our intellectual property rights;
our inability to develop new applications and product enhancements;
the potential disruptive effect on the markets we serve of new and emerging technologies and applications, including vehicle-to-vehicle communications and autonomous vehicles;
unanticipated delays, costs and expenses inherent in the development and marketing of new products;
our inability to respond to low-cost local competitors;
our inability to properly manage any growth in revenue and/or production requirements;
the influence over our voting stock by affiliates;
our inability to hire and retain key scientific and technical personnel;
the effects of legal matters in which we may become involved;
our inability to achieve and maintain effective internal controls;
our inability to successfully integrate any acquisitions;
tariffs and other trade barriers;
political and economic instability, including continuing volatility in the economic and political environment of the European Union;
our inability to comply with international regulatory restrictions over hazardous substances and electronic waste; and
conditions beyond our control such as war, terrorist attacks, health epidemics (including the COVID-19 pandemic caused by the coronavirus) and economic recession.

We caution that the forward-looking statements made in this report or in other announcements made by us are further qualified by the risk factors set forth in Item 1A. of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Approximately 20% of our revenue has historically been derived from shipments to customers outside the United States, and a large portion of this revenue is denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Our international subsidiaries have functional currencies other than our U.S. dollar reporting currency and, occasionally, transact business in currencies other than their functional currencies. These non-functional currency transactions expose us to market risk on assets, liabilities and cash flows recognized on these transactions.

The strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies decreases the value of foreign currency-denominated revenue and earnings when translated into U.S. dollars. Conversely, a weakening of the U.S. dollar increases the value of foreign currency-denominated revenue and earnings. A 10% adverse change in foreign currency rates could have a material effect on our results of operations or financial position.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act")). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2021, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the fiscal quarter covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

None.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Our results of operations and financial condition are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal year ended December 31 2020, filed on March 11, 2021. You should carefully consider these risk factors in conjunction with the other information contained in this Quarterly Report. Should any of these risks materialize, our business, financial condition and future prospects could be negatively impacted. As of August 12, 2021, there had been no material changes to the disclosures made in the above-referenced Form 10-K.
