Forward-Looking Statements





This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this "Quarterly Report") contains
forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). All
forward-looking statements included in this report are based on information
available to us as of the date hereof and we assume no obligation to update any
forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve known or unknown
risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause our actual results,
performance or achievements, or industry results to be materially different from
any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such
forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such
differences include but are not limited to those items discussed under "Risk
Factors" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2021, and in Item 1A of Part II of this Quarterly Report.



The following discussion of the financial condition and results of operations
should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial
statements included elsewhere within this Quarterly Report. Fluctuations in
annual and quarterly results may occur as a result of factors affecting demand
for our products, such as the timing of new product introductions by us and by
our competitors and our customers' political and budgetary constraints. Due to
such fluctuations, historical results and percentage relationships are not
necessarily indicative of the operating results for any future period. As used
in this Quarterly Report, "we", "us", "our", "Imageware", "Imageware Systems",
"IWS", or the "Company" refers to Imageware Systems, Inc., a Delaware
corporation, and all of its subsidiaries.



Overview



Imageware Systems, Inc. ("Imageware," the "Company," "we," "our") provides
biometric solutions to identify, verify, and authenticate people based on their
true identity, rather than on what keys and codes they have. A pioneer in the
field, Imageware was the first multimodal biometric solution provider in history
and holds dozens of patents, including some of the most cited patents in the
industry. Our Cloud-based and on-premises solutions provide faster, more
accurate identification to better secure communities, data, and assets. In fact,
governments, law enforcement agencies, and public and private enterprises
worldwide trust Imageware with critical identity solutions which manage millions
of identities every day.



Our patented Imageware Biometric Engine® is one of the most accurate and fastest
biometrics matching engines in the industry, capable of our patented biometrics
fusion. We are a "biometrics first" company, leveraging unique human
characteristics to provide unparalleled accuracy for identification while
protecting your identity.



Our product portfolio, called the Imageware Identity Platform, is built around
three key areas: Enroll & Identify, Badge & Credential, and Authenticate. All of
these areas are built on top of the Imageware Biometric Engine. The Platform is
a fully-modular, customizable, and pre-integrated portfolio of capabilities to
support state and local law enforcement, Federal agencies, and enterprises
alike.



Enroll & Identify


The Enroll & Identify area includes four key modules: Imageware Proof, Imageware Capture, Imageware Identify, and Imageware Investigate.





Imageware Proof enables an entity to prove someone's identity from their
biometrics, government issued ID, and 3rd party databases (such as credit bureau
data). Imageware Capture enables the fastest capture of biographic and biometric
detail (such as face, fingerprint, palm print, iris, and SMT's) in the industry.
Imageware Identify enables a user to identify someone from their biometrics in
seconds. Imageware Investigate enables an officer to create digital lineups very
quickly.



Badge & Credential


The Badge & Credential area includes two key modules: Imageware Credential (formerly EPI Suite) and Imageware Digital ID. Imageware Credential enables a user to design, build, and print badges for access control systems. This includes tickets, smart badges, wristbands, Personal Identity Verification ("PIV") cards, and more. Imageware Digital ID is a decentralized identity service that enables self-sovereign identity underpinned by blockchain technology tied to biometrics.

Authenticate



The Authenticate area includes Imageware Authenticate, which enables users to
leverage multimodal biometrics hosted in a central server or cloud to log in to
services and applications from any device. Imageware Authenticate is easily
integrated into existing solutions leveraging OpenID Connect ("OIDC"), Security
Assertion Mark-up Language ("SAML"), or OAuth2 protocols, and includes a
software development kit ("SDK") for partners and customers to easily embed into
their existing applications.



Imageware Biometric Engine



The Imageware Biometric Engine® is a patented biometric identity and
authentication database built for multi-biometric enrollment, management and
authentication. It is hardware agnostic and can utilize different types of
biometric algorithms from any vendor. It allows different types of biometrics to
be operated at the same time on a seamlessly integrated platform. It is also
offered as an SDK, enabling developers and system integrators to implement
biometric solutions or integrate biometric capabilities, into existing
applications.



Imageware Law Enforcement



Our modules are leveraged across many industries and use cases with minimal
customization needed. One of the key areas includes our Law Enforcement 2.0
solution which enables state, local and Federal agencies to quickly capture,
archive, search, retrieve, and share digital images, fingerprints and other
biometrics, as well as criminal history records on a stand-alone, networked,
wireless or browser-based platform. Our Imageware Law Enforcement 2.0 solution
includes Imageware Capture, Imageware Identify, Imageware Investigate, Imageware
Credential, and Imageware Authenticate. Other modules can also be easily
leveraged as needed.



Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates





The discussion and analysis of our consolidated financial condition and results
of operations are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the
United States ("GAAP"). The preparation of these consolidated financial
statements in accordance with GAAP requires us to utilize accounting policies
and make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingencies as of the date of the
consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and
expense during a fiscal period. The Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC")
considers an accounting policy to be critical if it is important to a company's
financial condition and results of operations, and if it requires significant
judgment and estimates on the part of management in its application.



The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity
with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets
and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period.
Significant estimates include the evaluation of our ability to continue as a
going concern, the allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, assumptions used
in the Black-Scholes model to calculate the fair value of share based payments,
fair value of financial instruments issued with and affected by the Series D
Financing, assumptions used in the application of revenue recognition policies,
and assumptions used in the application of fair value methodologies to calculate
the fair value of pension assets and obligations.



Critical accounting policies are those that, in management's view, are most
important in the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations.
Management believes there have been no material changes during the three months
ended March 31, 2022 to the critical accounting policies discussed in the
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K (the "Annual Report") for
the year ended December 31, 2021.



Results of Operations



This management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of
operations should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated
financial statements and related notes contained elsewhere in this Quarterly
Report.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2021 to the Three Months Ended
March 31, 2020



                                            Three Months Ended
                                                 March 31,

Software and royalty revenue increased approximately $102,000 during the three
months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the corresponding period in 2021.
This increase is attributable to higher identification project related revenue
of approximately $87,000, higher law enforcement software revenue of
approximately $30,000, higher sales of boxed identity management software sold
through our distribution channel of approximately $3,000 offset by lower
identification royalties of approximately $18,000.



Revenue from the sale of hardware and consumables increased approximately $30,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the corresponding period in 2021 due to an increase in both hardware and consumables procurement by our law enforcement customers.





Services revenue is comprised primarily of software integration services, system
installation services and customer training. Such revenue increased
approximately $22,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared
to the corresponding period of 2021 due to an increase in the service element of
project related work completed during the three months ended March 31, 2022.



We believe that the period-to-period fluctuations of identity management
software revenue in project-oriented solutions are largely due to the timing of
government procurement with respect to the various programs we are pursuing.
Although no assurances can be given, based on management's current visibility
into the timing of potential government procurements, potential partnerships and
current pilot programs, we believe that we will see an increase in government
procurement and implementations with respect to identity management initiatives;
however, government procurement initiatives, implementations and pilots are
frequently delayed and extended and we cannot predict the timing of such
initiatives.



As discussed more fully elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, the full extent of
COVID-19's impact on our operations and financial performance depends on future
developments that are uncertain and unpredictable, including the duration and
spread of the pandemic, its impact on capital and financial markets and any new
information that may emerge concerning the severity of the virus, its spread to
other regions as well as the actions taken to contain it, among others.



During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we have focused on strategically
modernizing our modules within the Imageware Identity Platform, prioritized by
market opportunities. We relaunched Imageware Authenticate (formerly GoVerify
ID®) in February 2021. This relaunch includes a new container and
microservices-based architecture along with refreshed mobile and desktop
clients. We believe these updates will result in additional customers
implementing our Imageware Authenticate solution. Additionally, we launched
Imageware Capture, our first module of the Law Enforcement 2.0 solution in
October 2021 and Imageware Investigate in December 2021. These are the first of
many modules that we plan to build and modernize throughout 2022 and beyond.
Prior to releasing Imageware Investigate, we closed our largest
software-as-a-service (SaaS) deal in the Company's history with Imageware
Investigate. Management believes that these initiatives will result in the
expansion of our solutions into state & local law enforcement, federal
government, and enterprises alike.

  Table of Contents





Maintenance revenue was approximately $635,000 for the three months ended March
31, 2022, as compared to approximately $677,000 for the corresponding period in
2021. Identity management maintenance revenue generated from identification
software solutions was approximately $323,000 for the three months ended March
31, 2022 as compared to approximately $361,000 during the comparable period in
2021. Law enforcement maintenance revenue was approximately $312,000 and
$316,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The
decrease of $4,000 in law enforcement software maintenance revenue for the three
months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the corresponding period of 2021 is
reflective of the expiration of certain maintenance contracts. The decrease of
$38,000 in our Identity Management maintenance revenue for the three months
ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the corresponding period of 2021 is also
reflective of the expiration of certain maintenance contracts.



We anticipate growth of our maintenance revenue through the retention of
existing customers combined with the expansion of our installed base resulting
from the completion of project-oriented work; however, we cannot predict the
timing of this anticipated growth.

The cost of software and royalty product revenue increased approximately $5,000
due primarily to higher software and royalty revenue for the three months ended
March 31, 2022 of approximately $102,000. The cost of software and royalty
product revenue as a percentage of software and royalty revenue increased to 4%
during the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to 0% for the
corresponding 2021 period as the 2021 period contained revenue being comprised
of solutions containing no third-party software costs or software customization.
In addition to changes in costs of software and royalty product revenue caused
by revenue level fluctuations, costs of products can vary as a percentage of
product revenue from period to period depending upon level of software
customization and third-party software license content included in product sales
during a given period.



The cost of revenue for our hardware and consumables sales increased by
approximately $18,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to

General and Administrative Expense





General and administrative expense is comprised primarily of salaries and other
employee-related costs for executive, financial, and other infrastructure
personnel. General legal, accounting and consulting services, insurance,
occupancy and communication costs are also included with general and
administrative expense. The dollar decrease of approximately $171,000 during the
three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the corresponding period in
2021 is comprised of the following major components:



  ? Decrease in personnel related expense
    of approximately $86,000 due to
    headcount reductions;




  ? Decrease in professional services of
    approximately $246,000 from
    reductions in contractor fees,
    professional services and Board of
    Director fees of approximately
    $136,000, lower general corporate
    expense of $18,000, , lower audit
    related fees of approximately
    $89,000, lower patent related expense
    of approximately $64,000 and lower
    legal fees of approximately $9,000
    offset by higher contract services of
    approximately $65,000 and higher
    investor relations fees of
    approximately $5,000.




  ? Increase in licenses, dues and other costs of approximately $7,000;

  ? Increase in stock-based compensation expense of approximately $299,000;

  ? Decrease in financing expense of approximately $32,000;




  ? Decrease in rent, office related
    expenses and other of approximately
    $120,000 due primarily to the
    sublease of certain office
    facilities;




  ? Increase in insurance costs of approximately $3,000; and




  ? Increase in bad debt expense of approximately $4,000.




We continue to focus our efforts on achieving additional future operating
efficiencies by reviewing and improving upon existing business processes and
evaluating our cost structure. We believe these efforts will allow us to
continue to gradually decrease our level of general and administrative expense
expressed as a percentage of total revenue.



Sales and Marketing



Sales and marketing expense consists primarily of the salaries, commissions,
other incentive compensation, employee benefits and travel expense of our sales,
marketing, and business development functions. The dollar decrease of
approximately $98,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared
to the corresponding period in 2021 is primarily comprised of the following
major components:



  ? Decrease in personnel related expense
    of approximately $135,000 driven
    primarily by the effect of headcount
    reductions;




  ? Decrease in contract services and
    dues and subscriptions of
    approximately $33,000 resulting from
    decreased utilization of certain
    sales contract services of
    approximately $48,000 offset by dues
    and subscriptions of approximately
    $15,000;




  ? Increase in travel, trade show
    expense of approximately $19,000 due
    to the resumption of sales travel and
    trade show attendance;




  ? Increase in stock-based compensation
    expense of approximately $106,000;
    and

  ? Decrease in advertising and demo
    equipment expense and other
    miscellaneous selling related expense
    of approximately $28,000; and




  ? Decrease in our Mexico sales office
    and other expense of approximately
    $27,000 due to headcount reductions
    at this location.

benefits and outside contractors for new product development, product
enhancements, custom integration work and related facility costs. Such expense
decreased approximately $300,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2022 as
compared to the corresponding period in 2021 due primarily to the following
major components:



  ? Decrease in personnel related expense
    of approximately $394,000 driven
    primarily by the effect of headcount
    decreases;




  ? Increase in contractor fees and
    contract services of approximately
    $98,000 resulting from the
    replacement of certain function with
    contract labor;



? Increase in stock based-compensation expense of approximately $100,000; and






  ? Decrease in office related expense,
    engineering tools, supplies,
    communications (including internet)
    and travel of approximately $104,000.



Depreciation and Amortization





During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, depreciation and
amortization expense was approximately $6,000 and $18,000, respectively. The
relatively small amount of depreciation and amortization reflects the relatively
small property and equipment carrying value.



Interest Expense (Income), Net





For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, we recognized net interest
expense of $53,000 and $0, respectively. Interest expense for the three months
ended March 31, 2022 is comprised of approximately $24,000 in coupon interest
related to borrowings under our 2021 Credit Facility and approximately $29,000
from amortization of debt discount associated with the 2021 Credit Facility.



Other (income) expense, net


During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we recognized other income of approximately $5,000 from certain miscellaneous receipts. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we recognized other expense of approximately $82,000 from the write-off of certain furniture and fixtures and recognized other income of approximately $57,000 from the settlement of certain liabilities at less than their carrying amount.

Change in Fair Value of Derivative Liabilities





For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we recognized expense of
approximately $667,000 from the decrease of derivative liabilities arising from
the consummation of the Series D Financing in November 2020. Such increase was
determined by management using fair value methodologies and is included as
income under the caption "Change in fair value of derivative liabilities" in our
condensed consolidated statement of operations for three months ended March 31,
2022.



For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we recognized income of approximately
$1,172,000 from the decrease of derivative liabilities arising from the
consummation of the Series D Financing in November 2020. Such decrease was
determined by management using fair value methodologies and is included as
income under the caption "Change in fair value of derivative liabilities" in our
condensed consolidated statement of operations for three months ended March 31,
2021.


Loss on Extinguishment of Derivative Liabilities and Debt





During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we recognized a loss on the
extinguishment of derivative liabilities of approximately $335,000 pursuant to
the conversion of 354 shares of Series D Preferred into Common Stock. Such loss
is included in the caption "Loss on extinguishment of derivative liabilities and
debt" in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for three months
ended March 31, 2021.


There were no extinguishments of derivative liabilities during the three months ended March 31, 2022.

LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND GOING CONCERN

Going Concern and Management's Plans





Historically, our principal sources of cash have included proceeds from the
issuance of common and preferred stock and proceeds from the issuance of debt,
and, to a lesser extent, customer payments from the sale of our products. Our
principal uses of cash have included cash used in operations, product
development, and payments relating to purchases of property and equipment. We
expect that our principal uses of cash in the future will be for product
development, including customization of identity management products for
enterprise and consumer applications, further development of intellectual
property, development of Software-as-a-Service ("SaaS") capabilities for
existing products as well as general working capital requirements. Management
expects that, as our revenue grows, our sales and marketing and research and
development expense will continue to grow, albeit at a slower rate and, as a
result, we will need to generate significant net revenue to achieve and sustain
positive cash flows from operations. Historically, the Company has not been able
to generate sufficient net revenue to achieve and sustain positive cash flows
from operations, and this condition is currently expected to continue for the
foreseeable future. As a result, the Company has been dependent on equity and
debt financings to satisfy its working capital requirements and continue as a
going concern. Due to the Company's deteriorating liquidity, management has
determined that there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to
continue as a going concern.



At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, we had negative working capital of
$10,289,000 and $8,046,000, respectively. Included in our negative working
capital as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 are $6,024,000 and
$5,292,000, respectively, of derivative liabilities which are not required to be
settled in cash except in the event of the consummation of a change of control
or at any time after the fourth anniversary of the Series D Preferred issuance,
at which time the holders of the Series D Preferred may require the Company to
redeem in cash any or all of the holder's outstanding Series D Preferred at an
amount equal to the Series D Liquidation Preference Amount. At March 31, 2022
the Liquidation Preference Amount totaled $23,469,000. Considering the
financings consummated in 2021, as well as our projected cash requirements, and
assuming we are unable to generate incremental revenue, our available cash will
be insufficient to satisfy our cash requirements in the near term and the next
twelve months from the date of this filing. At May 20, 2022, cash on hand
approximated $215,000. Based on the Company's rate of cash consumption during
the year ended December 31, 2021, the first quarter ended March 31, 2022 and the
second quarter ended June 30, 2022, the Company estimates it will need
additional capital in the second quarter of 2022 and its prospects for obtaining
that capital are uncertain. As a result of the Company's historical losses,
financial condition, and challenges raising additional capital given the
volatile capital markets, there is substantial doubt about the Company's ability
to continue as a going concern.



To address our working capital requirements, management is actively seeking
additional financing, of which no assurances can be given that we will be
successful.  In addition, the Company has instituted several cost cutting
measures and has utilized cash proceeds available under the Credit Facility with
the Lenders (See Note 1), and under the purchase agreement with Lincoln Park to
satisfy its working capital requirements ("LPC Purchase Agreement") (See Note
1). In addition, as reported in the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
filed with the SEC on August 23, 2021, on August 12, 2021, the Company retained
an investment bank to initiate a review of available alternatives to maximize
shareholder value, which may include, among other alternatives, (i) a merger,
consolidation, or other business combination or a purchase involving all or a
substantial amount of the business, securities or assets of the Company, and/or
(ii) the private placement of securities to meet its working capital
requirements or otherwise as necessary in connection with the consummation of
any of the above transactions.  Other than the LPC Purchase Agreement with
Lincoln Park and our Credit Facility with Nantahala, which are currently
restricted in our ability to access additional capital, there are currently no
financing arrangements to support our projected cash shortfall. We currently
have no other commitments to purchase additional debt and/or equity securities,
or other agreements, and no assurances can be given that we will be successful
in raising additional debt and/or equity securities, or entering into any other
transaction that addresses our ability to continue as a going concern. The
consummation of a transaction will involve substantial dilution to the Company's
stockholders.



In view of the matters described in the preceding paragraphs, recoverability of
a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying
consolidated balance sheet is dependent upon continued operations of the
Company, which, in turn, is dependent upon the Company's ability to continue to
raise capital, generate positive cash flows from operations, or otherwise
consummate a transaction that addresses the Company's working capital
requirements. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain
additional capital, consummate a transaction that addresses its liquidity
concerns, or operate at a profit or generate positive cash flows in the future.
Therefore, management's plans do not alleviate the substantial doubt of the
Company's ability to continue as a going concern.



The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments
relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and
classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be
unable to continue as a going concern.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements





At March 31, 2022, we did not have any relationships with unconsolidated
entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as
structured finance, special purpose or variable interest entities, which would
have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet
arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. In addition, we
did not engage in trading activities involving non-exchange traded contracts. As
a result, we are not exposed to any financing, liquidity, market or credit risk
that could arise if we had engaged in such relationships. We do not have
relationships and transactions with persons or entities that derive benefits
from their non-independent relationship with us or our related parties except as
disclosed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report.
