General
We develop, market and support a family of entity identification, high speed data mining, cybercrime and advanced persistent threat detection products.
Our product families include:
●
●
TraceCop™ for entity identification, cybercrime detection and disclosure, and;
Savant™ for high speed data mining and analytics, and advanced persistent threat detection.
Intrusion’s products help protect critical information assets by quickly detecting, protecting, analyzing and reporting attacks or misuse of classified,
private and regulated information for government and enterprise networks.
We market and distribute our products through a direct sales force to:
●
●
end-users, and
value-added resellers.
Our end-user customers include:
●
●
●
●
●
U.S. federal government entities,
state and local government entities,
large and diverse conglomerates,
manufacturing entities, and
other customers.
We were organized in Texas in September 1983 and reincorporated in Delaware in October 1995. Our principal executive offices are located at 1101 East
Arapaho Road, Suite 200, Richardson, Texas 75081, and our telephone number is (972) 234-6400. Our website URL is www.intrusion.com. References to the
“Company”, “we”, “us”, “our”, “Intrusion” or “Intrusion Inc.” refer to Intrusion Inc. and its subsidiaries. TraceCop and Savant are trademarks of Intrusion Inc.

Government Sales
Sales to U.S. government customers accounted for 87.4% of our revenues for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to 83.9% of our revenue in
2018. We expect to continue to derive a substantial portion of our revenues from sales to governmental entities in the future as we continue to market our entity
identification products and data mining products to the government. Sales to the government present risks in addition to those involved in sales to commercial
customers that could adversely affect our revenues, including potential disruption due to irregularities in or interruptions to appropriation and spending patterns,
delays in approving a federal budget and the government’s reservation of the right to cancel contracts and purchase orders for its convenience.
Generally, we make our sales under purchase orders and contracts. Our customers, including government customers, may cancel their orders or contracts
with little or no prior notice and without penalty. Although we transact business with various government entities, we believe that the cancellation of any particular
order in itself could have a material adverse effect on our financial results. Because we derive and expect to continue to derive a substantial portion of our revenue
from sales to government entities, a large number of cancelled or renegotiated government orders or contracts could have a material adverse effect on our financial
results. Currently, we are not aware of any proposed cancellation or renegotiation of any of our existing arrangements with government entities. See risk factor,
“Government customers involve unique risks, which could adversely impact our revenues,” on page 10.
Industry Background
We develop, market and support a family of entity identification, data mining and advanced persistent threat detection products. Our product families
include:
●
●
The TraceCop™ product line, which includes a number of our proprietary supporting tools, allows our customers and in-house cyber analysts to
accurately discover and help identify ‘bad actors’ associated with cybercrime.
The Savant™ product is a ‘purpose-built’, very high-speed network data mining and analytics software package that is easily installed on
commercial off the shelf platforms.
Our customers use our products as an integral part of protecting their critical infrastructure and data information assets. By quickly detecting, protecting,
analyzing and reporting attacks, along with the potential misuse of classified information, we have become a key component to the daily challenges of cyber
security for both state and federal governments and large private commercial enterprises.
Products
TraceCop
Our TraceCop product family includes a database of worldwide IP addresses, registrant information and their associations, along with a plurality of
related IP information, some dating back nearly two decades. When combined with Intrusion’s multitude of cyber security ‘global threat feeds’, along with our
TraceCop family of proprietary supporting tools, this vast and ever expanding capability is used in conjunction with our customer’s data to help identify areas of
vulnerability and potential cyber security threats. In addition to its extensive capability, the TraceCop family includes analytical software with a GUI interface to
assist the analysts in locating cybercriminals and other potential ‘bad actors’ or network anomalies. We offer our customers a daily, weekly or monthly enrichment
service to assist them in the culling of ‘good’ data traffic from potential threats.
Intrusion licenses TraceCop to our customers for a yearly fee and offers scheduled updates. Intrusion will either install and update the database at the
Intrusion facility or install TraceCop on a customer server onsite. Updates are delivered via secure Internet feed or removable storage devices.
Savant
Savant is a high speed network data mining and analysis product which organizes the data into networks of relationships and associations. Its patented
design exceeds performance expectations and ensures ‘deep dives’ into data-in-motion in order to quickly and accurately detect advanced persistent threats. Savant
can operate on networks with data flows of over 20 gigabits per second, and still maintain a 100% inspection rate of all packets.
4
The Savant solution provides real-time access and insight into a company’s own indisputable and quantifiable network data for more effective, unbiased
examination of their flows. Uses of the Savant product include data mining, data loss prevention, advanced persistent threat detection and identification of Internet
habits of network users. Savant is a software product which we license to our customers for which we sell data updates. We also offer the option to fully implement
a server and re-sell to the customer as a turn-key solution.
Third-Party Products
We currently resell standard commercially available computers and servers from various vendors which we integrate with our different software products
for implementation into our customer networks. We do not consider any of these third party relationships to be material to the Company’s business or results of
operations.
Customer Services
Our product sales may include installation and threat data interpretation.
Product Development
The network security industry is characterized by rapidly changing technology standards and customer demands all shaped by the current state of the
economy. We believe that our future success depends in large part upon the timely enhancement of existing products as well as the development of new
technologically advanced products that meet cybersecurity industry needs and perform successfully and efficiently. We are currently marketing TraceCop and
Savant products to meet emerging market requirements and are continuously engaged in testing to ensure that our products interoperate with other manufacturers’
products and which comply with industry standards applicable to those products.
During 2019 and 2018, our research and development expenditures were approximately $1.3 and $1.2 million, respectively. All of our expenditures for
research and development have been expensed as incurred. At December 31, 2019, we had 25 employees engaged in research, product development and
engineering. At certain times during the year, research and development labor expense has been shifted to direct labor to support ongoing projects.
Manufacturing and Supplies
Our internal manufacturing operations consist primarily of software, packaging, testing and quality control of finished units.
The hardware we sell are standard off-the-shelf products.
Intellectual Property and Licenses
Our success and our ability to compete are dependent, in part, upon our proprietary technology. We principally rely on a combination of contractual
rights, trade secrets and copyright laws to establish and protect our proprietary rights in our products. In addition, we have received two patents. We have also
entered into non-disclosure agreements with our suppliers, resellers and certain customers to limit access to and disclosure of proprietary information. There can be
no assurance that the steps taken by us to protect our intellectual property will be adequate to prevent misappropriation of our technology or that our competitors
will not independently develop technologies that are substantially equivalent or superior to our technology.
We have entered into software and product license agreements with various suppliers. These license agreements provide us with additional software and
hardware components that add value to our security products. These license agreements do not provide proprietary rights that are unique or exclusive to us and are
generally available to other parties on the same or similar terms and conditions, subject to payment of applicable license fees and royalties. We do not consider any
of the product license, software or supplier agreements to be material to our business, but rather complementary to our business and product offerings.
Sales, Marketing and Customers
Field Sales Force. Our direct sales organization focuses on major account sales, channel partners including distributors, value added resellers (VARs) and
integrators; promotes our products to current and potential customers; and monitors evolving customer requirements. The field sales and technical support force
provides training and technical support to our resellers and end users and assists our customers in designing cyber secure data networking solutions. We currently
conduct sales and marketing efforts from our principal office in Richardson (Dallas), Texas. In addition, we have sales personnel, sales engineers or sales
representatives located in Virginia and California.
5
Resellers. Resellers such as domestic and international system integrators and VARs sell our products as stand-alone solutions to end users and integrate our
products with products sold by other vendors into network security systems that are sold to end users. Our field sales force and technical support organization
provide support to these resellers. Our agreements with resellers are non-exclusive, and our resellers generally sell other products that may compete with our
products. Resellers may place higher priority on products of other suppliers who are larger and have more name recognition, and there can be no assurance that
resellers will continue to sell and support our products.
Foreign Sales. Export sales did not account for any revenue in 2019 and 2018. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations” included in this report for a geographic breakdown of our revenue in 2019 and 2018.
Marketing. We have implemented several methods to market our products, including participation in trade shows and seminars, distribution of sales literature
and product specifications and ongoing communication with our resellers and installed base of end-user customers.
Customers. Our end-user customers include U.S. federal government, state and local government entities, large and diversified conglomerates and
manufacturing entities. Sales to certain customers and groups of customers can be impacted by seasonal capital expenditure approval cycles, and sales to customers
within certain geographic regions can be subject to seasonal fluctuations in demand.
In 2019, 87.4% of our revenue was derived from a variety of U.S. government entities through direct sales and indirectly through system integrators and
resellers. These sales are attributable to ten U.S. Government customers through direct and indirect channels; three exceeded 10% of total revenue individually in
2019. Comparatively, sales to the U.S. Government through direct and indirect channels totaled 83.9% of total revenues for 2018. Those sales were attributable to
ten U.S. Government customers through direct and indirect channels; four exceeded 10% of total revenue individually in 2018. A reduction in our sales to U.S.
government entities could have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results if not replaced.
Backlog. We believe that only a small portion of our order backlog is non-cancelable and that the dollar amount associated with the non-cancelable portion is
immaterial. We purchase, or contract for the purchase of, our inventory based upon our forecast of customer demand, and we maintain inventories in advance of
receiving firm orders from customers. Commercial orders are generally fulfilled within two days to two weeks following receipt of an order. Certain orders may be
scheduled over several months, generally not exceeding one year.
Customer Support, Service and Warranty. We service, repair and provide technical support for our products. Our field sales and technical support force works
closely with resellers and end-user customers on-site and by telephone to assist with pre- and post-sales support services such as network security design, system
installation and technical consulting. By working closely with our customers, our employees increase their understanding of end-user requirements and are then
able to provide specific input in our product development process.
We warrant all of our products against defects in materials and workmanship for periods ranging from 90 days to 36 months. Before and after expiration
of the product warranty period, we offer both on-site and factory-based support, parts replacement and repair services. Extended warranty services are separately
invoiced on a time and materials basis or under an annual maintenance contract.
Competition
The market for network and data protection security solutions is intensely competitive and subject to frequent product introductions with new
technologies, improved price and performance characteristics. Industry suppliers compete in areas such as conformity to existing and emerging industry standards,
interoperability with networking and other security products, management and security capabilities, performance, price, ease of use, scalability, reliability,
flexibility, product features and technical support. The market for identity identification and data mining is more fragmented and thus allows more opportunities
for small companies to compete in.
There are numerous companies competing in various segments of the data security markets. At this time, we have limited competitors for TraceCop;
however, we expect competitors to emerge in the future. These competitors currently perform only a portion of the functions that we are able to perform with
TraceCop. Also, we have been continuously collecting the TraceCop data for more than ten years. We believe that none of our current or future competitors have
the ability to provide this historical data. In our newest market segment, data mining and advanced persistent threat detection, we compete with several companies
including Niksun, NetScout, Fireeye and Palo Alto Networks.
6
However, some of our competitors have substantially greater financial, technical, sales and marketing resources, better name recognition and a larger
customer base than we do. Even if we do introduce advanced products that meet evolving customer requirements in a timely manner, there can be no assurance that
our new products will gain market acceptance.
Certain companies in the network security industry have expanded their product lines or technologies in recent years as a result of acquisitions. Further,
more companies have developed products which conform to existing and emerging industry standards and have sought to compete on the basis of price. We
anticipate increased competition from large networking equipment vendors, which are expanding their capabilities in the network security market. In addition, we
anticipate increased competition from private “start-up” companies that have developed, or are developing, advanced security products. Increased competition in
the security industry could result in significant price competition, reduced profit margins or loss of market share, any of which could have a material adverse effect
on our business, operating results and financial condition. There can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully in the future with current or new
competitors.
Employees
As of December 31, 2019, we employed a total of 32 full time persons, including 4 in sales, marketing and technical support, 25 in research, product
development, analysis and engineering, and 3 in administration and finance.
None of our employees are represented by a labor organization, and we are not a party to any collective bargaining agreement. We have not experienced
any work stoppages and consider our relations with our employees to be good.
Competition in the recruiting of personnel in the networking and data security industry is intense. We believe that our future success will depend in part
on our continued ability to hire, motivate and retain qualified management, sales, marketing, and technical personnel. To date, we have not experienced significant
difficulties in attracting or retaining qualified employees.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the other information in this Form 10-K, the following factors should be considered in evaluating Intrusion Inc. and our business.
We may be unsuccessful in the transition of responsibilities of our co-founder, G. Ward Paxton upon his unexpected passing on October 24, 2019, which may
have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
Mr. G. Ward Paxton co-founded the Company in 1983, and he served as President, Chief Executive Officer, Director, and Chairman of the Board for most
of his 36 year tenure. He demonstrated dedication and leadership, and provided a unique insight and understanding of the Company’s operations and business
strategy for decades. The loss of that leadership and experience may cause the expenditure of Company’s and its management’s time and attention as it works
through this transition with the Company’s management, staff, vendors, suppliers and customers, any or all of whom may be apprehensive regarding the loss of
Ward’s leadership. We can provide no assurance of the smoothness, the diversion of the Company’s resources, or the successfulness of this transition.
The appointment of our current CFO, Mr. Michael L. Paxton, to the positions of Director and Chairman of the Board, as well as his service as Interim
President and Interim CEO, may take significant time, attention, and focus from our day to day operations and the Company’s goals and objectives, perhaps in
a material way.
Mr. Michael Paxton has been an integral part of our management team for many years, and our Board has expressed confidence that he will provide a
smooth transition going forward. Until such time that we are able to fill the CEO position,Mr. Paxton will be tasked with continuing his current obligations of our
Chief Financial Officer as well as taking on these additional roles and responsibilities. While we believe that Mike’s long tenure with and understanding of the
Company’s operations will be an asset to his ability to quickly adapt to these additional duties, we can provide no assurances of such.
As of October 24, 2019, we have lost the ability to borrow, up to $2.7 million under an unsecured revolving promissory note (the “CEO Note”) from our former
CEO, the loss of which may have a material adverse effect on our business, our results of operation, or even our ability to continue as a going concern. We will
continue to seek financing alternatives.
With the passing of our former CEO, Mr. G. Ward Paxton, the CEO Note terminated, with the result that future borrowings thereunder will no longer be
available to the Company. Our ability to draw funds under the CEO Note has been a major strength behind the Company’s liquidity for a number of years, the loss
of which is unable to be measured at this time. However, the lack of this financial backstop could, in the future, have a material adverse effect on our business, our
results of our operations, our ability to continue as a going concern, or to continue operations at all. Our management will be assessing whether to replace this
borrowing capacity and assessing what terms may be available to the Company, including whether any such terms are acceptable to the Company, if at all;
however, we can make no such assurances as to the replacement of this borrowing facility.
7
We may not have sufficient cash to operate our business and may not be able to maintain future liquidity requirements. Additional debt and equity offerings to
fund future operations may not be available and, if available, may significantly dilute the value of our currently outstanding common stock.
As of December 31, 2019, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $3,334,000, up from approximately $1,652,000 as of December 31, 2018.
We generated a net income of $4,465,000 for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to a net income of $2,287,000 for the year ended December 31, 2018.
We are obligated to make payments of accrued dividends on all our outstanding shares of preferred stock that will reduce our available cash resources. Based on
the current forecast for the year 2020, we believe that we will have sufficient cash resources to finance our operations and expected capital expenditures through
March 31, 2021. As of October 24, 2019, our funding available from the CEO Note terminated. Our management will be assessing whether to replace this
borrowing capacity and assessing what terms may be available to the Company, including whether any such terms available are acceptable to the Company, if at all
(the “Potential Replacement Facility”). Any equity or debt financings, if available at all, may be on terms which are not favorable to us and, in the case of equity
financings, may result in dilution to our stockholders. We expect to fund our operations through anticipated Company profits, possible additional investments of
private equity and debt, which, if we are able to obtain, will have the effect of diluting our existing common stockholders, perhaps significantly, and a possible
Potential Replacement Facility. If our operations do not generate positive cash flow in the upcoming year, or if we are not able to obtain additional debt or equity
financing on terms and conditions acceptable to us, if at all, we may be unable to implement our business plan, fund our liquidity needs or even continue our
operations.
We had a net income of $4.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 and have an accumulated deficit of $54.8 million as of December 31, 2019. To
continue profitability, we must continue to generate consistent or increased revenue.
For the year ended December 31, 2019, we had a net income of $4.5 million and an accumulated deficit of approximately $54.8 million as of December
31, 2019, compared to a net income of $2.3 million and an accumulated deficit of approximately $59.2 million as of December 31, 2018. We need to continue to
generate consistent or greater revenue from the sales of our products and services if we are to continue profitability. If we are unable to generate consistent or
greater revenue growth, net losses may occur, and we may not be able to generate positive cash flow from operations in the future.
We anticipate a decrease in net revenue for the first quarter of fiscal year 2020, which could adversely affect our results of operation, our liquidity position,
and result in a decline in the price of our common stock.
As of the date of this annual report, the Company anticipates lower net revenue for the quarterly period ending on March 31, 2020. While it is premature
to determine whether this is a trend or merely a reflection of our customers’ varying ordering patterns, a decrease in net revenue could result in lower operating
results for the quarter or for the fiscal year 2020, have a negative effect on our cash flow and our overall liquidity position, and potentially affect the perception of
the Company’s value in the marketplace and result in a decline in the price of our common stock.
Further, our expense levels are based, in part, upon our expectations as to future revenues and are largely fixed in the short term. Therefore, we may not
be able to timely adjust our expenditures in order to compensate for an unanticipated shortfall in revenue in any given quarter. Any significant shortfall in revenues
that were unanticipated by have an immediate and significant effect on our operating results for that quarter and may lead to a reduced market price for our stock.
Uncertainties surrounding the effects of the coronavirus, particularly potential diversion of time and resources of the federal, state, and local governmental
entities which make up a significant concentration of our customer base, could cause a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial
results.
We have a concentration of customers that are federal, state, and local governmental entities. Such entities will be required to allocate resources and adjust
budgets to accommodate potential contingencies related to the effects of the coronavirus and measures required to be put in place to prevent and contain
contamination of the virus. These uncertainties may result in these customers delaying budget expenditures or re-allocating resources that would result in a
decrease in orders from these customers. Any such decrease in orders from these customers could cause a material adverse effect on our operations and financial
results.
8
A material disruption in our workplace as a result of the coronavirus could affect our ability to carry on our business operations in the ordinary course and
may require additional cost and effort should our employees not be able to be physically on-premises.
Should we experience periods where it is not prudent for some or all of our employees to be physically present on-site, we may not have the benefit of the
time and skills of such employees or we may be required to adjust our current business operations and processes to permit some or all of our employees at any one
of our locations to work remotely in order to avoid the potential spread of the virus. We can offer no assurances that these adjustments would not cause material
disruptions to our daily operations, require us to expend our time, energy and resources to make necessary adjustments, and may result in a material adverse effect
on our sales, research and development and other critical areas of our business model.
Our common stock may experience volatility in trading or loss in value as a result of the effects of the coronavirus on the US and global economies.
Uncertainties surrounding the effects of the coronavirus on the US and global economies has resulted in an increase in volatility and violent drops in the
value of publicly traded securities, including the trading in our common stock. We can offer no assurances that these effects are temporary or that any losses that
are incurred as a result of these uncertainties will be regained if and when this crisis has passed. As a result, the value of our stock remains subject to such
volatility and potential loss of market value.
We must expend time and resources addressing potential cyber-security risk, and any breach of our information security safeguards could have a material
adverse affect on the Company.
The threat of cyber attacks requires additional time and money to be expended in efforts to prevent any breaches of our information security protocols.
However, we can provide no assurances that we can prevent any and all such attempts from being successful, which could result in expenses to address and
remediate such breaches as well as potentially losing the confidence of our customers who depend upon our services to prevent and mitigate such attacks on their
respective business. Should a material breach of our information security systems occur, it would likely have a material adverse impact on our business operations,
our customer relations, our current and future sales prospects, resulting in a significant loss of revenue.
Fluctuations in our quarterly revenues may cause the price of our common stock to decline.
Our operating results have varied significantly from quarter to quarter in the past, and we expect our operating results to vary from quarter to quarter in
the future due to a variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control. Significant portions of our expenses are not variable in the short term and we cannot
reduce them quickly to respond to unexpected decreases in revenues. Therefore, if revenues are below our expectations, this shortfall is likely to adversely and
disproportionately affect our operating results. Accordingly, we may not attain positive operating margins in future quarters. Any of these factors could cause our
operating results to be below the expectations of securities analysts and investors, which likely would negatively affect the price of our common stock
If our products do not achieve market acceptance, our revenue growth may suffer.
Our security products, advanced persistent threat detection and entity identification products have been in the marketplace for a shorter period of time and
may have longer sales cycles than our previous products. Accordingly, we may not achieve the meaningful revenue growth needed to sustain operations. We can
provide no assurances that sales of our newer products will grow or generate sufficient revenues to sustain our business. If we are unable to recognize revenues due
to longer sales cycles or other problems, our results of operations will be adversely affected, perhaps materially.
We have not yet received broad market acceptance for our products. We cannot assure you that our present or future products will achieve market
acceptance on a sustained basis. In order to achieve market acceptance and achieve future revenue growth, we must introduce complementary security products,
incorporate new technologies into our existing product lines and design, develop, and successfully commercialize higher performance products in a timely manner.
There is no assurance that we will be able to offer new or complementary products that gain market acceptance quickly enough to avoid decreased revenues during
current or future product introductions or transitions.
9
A large percentage of our revenues are received from U.S. government entities, and the loss of any one of these customers could reduce our revenues and
materially harm our business and prospects.
A large percentage of our revenues result from sales to U.S. government entities. If we were to lose one or more of these key relationships, our revenues
could decline and our business and prospects may be materially harmed. We expect that even if we are successful in developing relationships with non-
governmental customers, our revenues will continue to be concentrated among government entities. For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, sales
to U.S. government entities collectively accounted for 81.6%, 83.9% and 87.4% of our total net revenues, respectively. The loss of any of these key relationships
may send a negative message to other U.S. government entities or non-governmental customers concerning our product offering. There is no assurance that U.S.
government entities will be customers of ours in future periods or that we will be able to diversify our customer portfolio to adequately mitigate the risk of loss of
any of these customers.
Government customers involve unique risks, which could adversely impact our revenues.
We expect to continue to derive a substantial portion of our revenues from U.S. government customers in the future. Sales to the government present risks
in addition to those involved in sales to commercial customers, including potential disruption due to appropriation and spending patterns, delays in approving a
federal budget and the government’s right to cancel contracts and purchase orders for its convenience. General political and economic conditions, which we cannot
accurately predict, directly and indirectly may affect the quantity and allocation of expenditures by federal departments. In addition, obtaining government
contracts may involve long purchase and payment cycles, competitive bidding, qualification requirements, delays or changes in funding, budgetary constraints,
political agendas, extensive specification development and price negotiations and milestone requirements. Each government entity also maintains its own rules and
regulations with which we must comply, which can vary significantly among departments. As a result, cutbacks or re-allocations in the federal budget or losses of
government sales due to other factors could have a material adverse effect on our revenues and operating results.
We are highly dependent on sales made through indirect channels, the loss of which would materially adversely affect our operations.
For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018 and 2019, we derived 64.5%, 70.3% and 70.3% of our revenues from sales through indirect sales channels,
such as distributors, value-added resellers, system integrators, original equipment manufacturers and managed service providers. We must expand our sales
through these indirect channels in order to increase our revenues. We cannot assure you that our products will gain market acceptance in these indirect sales
channels or that sales through these indirect sales channels will increase our revenues. Further, many of our competitors are also trying to sell their products
through these indirect sales channels, which could result in lower prices and reduced profit margins for sales of our products.
The payment of dividends on our preferred stock may strain our cash resources.
On March 25, 2004, we completed a $5,000,000 private placement pursuant to which we issued 1,000,000 shares of our 5% Convertible Preferred Stock
(the “Series 1 Preferred Stock”) and warrants to acquire 556,619 shares of our common stock. The conversion price for the Series 1 Preferred Stock is $3.144 per
share. As of February 28, 2020, there were 200,000 shares of the Series 1 Preferred Stock outstanding, representing approximately 318,065 shares of common
stock upon conversion.
On March 28, 2005, we completed a $2,663,000 private placement pursuant to which we issued 1,065,200 shares of our Series 2 5% Convertible Preferred
Stock (the “Series 2 Preferred Stock”) and warrants to acquire 532,600 shares of our common stock. The conversion price for the Series 2 Preferred Stock is $2.50
per share. As of February 28, 2020, there were 420,000 shares of the Series 2 Preferred Stock outstanding, representing 420,000 shares of common stock upon
conversion.
On December 2, 2005, we completed a $1,230,843 private placement pursuant to which we issued 564,607 shares of our Series 3 5% preferred stock (the
“Series 3 Preferred Stock”) and warrants to acquire 282,306 shares of our common stock. The conversion price for the Series 3 Preferred Stock is $2.18 per share.
As of February 28, 2020, there were 266,184 shares of Series 3 Preferred Stock outstanding, representing 266,184 shares of common stock upon conversion.
During the year ended December 31, 2019, we accrued $50,000 in dividends to the holders of our 5% Preferred Stock, $57,000 in dividends to the holders
of our Series 2 5% Preferred Stock and $32,000 in dividends to the holders of our Series 3 5% Preferred Stock. Further, these dividends will continue owing to
these preferred stockholders in the future. The ability to make payment of these accrued dividends are conditioned upon the financial condition of the Company
and if, and when, we are able to effect such payments may strain our cash resources at the time, perhaps materially.
10
If we are unable to pay scheduled dividends on shares of our preferred stock it could potentially result in additional consequences, some of them material.
As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, we had $20,000 and $594,000, respectively, in accrued and unpaid dividends included in other current liabilities.
Delaware law provides that we may only pay dividends out of our capital surplus or, if no surplus is available, out of our net profits for the fiscal year the dividend
is declared and/or the preceding fiscal year. In the past we have become delinquent in our dividend payments that became past due because we did not have a
capital surplus or fiscal year net profits. However, in light of our net profits for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2018 and 2019, we were able to pay past due
and current dividends as of the date of this Annual Report. However, dividends continue to accrue on all our outstanding shares of preferred stock, regardless of
whether we are legally able to pay them, and we cannot assure you that our net assets will exceed our stated capital or that we will have sufficient net profits in
order to pay these dividends as they continue to accrue in the future. If we are unable to pay dividends on our preferred stock, we are required to accrue an
additional late fee penalty of 18% per annum on the unpaid dividends for the Series 2 Preferred Stock and Series 3 Preferred Stock. In addition to this late penalty,
the holders of our Series 2 Preferred Stock and Series 3 Preferred Stock could elect to present us with written notice of any failure to pay dividends as scheduled, in
which case we would have 45 days to cure such a breach. In the event that we failed to cure the breach, the holders of these shares of preferred stock would then
have the right to require us to redeem their shares of preferred stock for a cash amount calculated in accordance with their respective certificates of designation.
You will experience substantial dilution upon the conversion or redemption of the shares of preferred stock or in the event we raise additional funds through
the issuance of new shares of our common stock or securities convertible or exercisable into shares of common stock.
On February 28, 2020, we had 13,753,030 shares of common stock outstanding. Upon conversion of all outstanding shares of preferred stock, we would
have 14,757,279 shares of common stock outstanding, approximately an 7.3% increase in the number of shares of our common stock outstanding.
In addition, management may issue additional shares of common stock or securities exercisable or convertible into shares of common stock in order to
finance our continuing operations. Any future issuances of such securities would have additional dilutive effects on the existing holders of our Common Stock.
Further, the occurrence of certain events could entitle holders of our Series 2 Preferred Stock and Series 3 Preferred Stock to require us to redeem their
shares for a certain number of shares of our common stock. Assuming (i) we have paid all liquidated damages and other amounts to the holders, (ii) paid all
outstanding dividends, (iii) a volume weighted average price of $5.13, which was the ten-day volume weighted average closing price of our common stock on
February 28, 2020, and (iv) our 13,753,030 shares of common stock outstanding on February 28, 2020, upon exercise of their redemption right by the holders of
the Series 3 Preferred Stock and the Series 2 Preferred Stock, we would be obligated to issue approximately 556,000 shares of our common stock. This would
represent an increase of approximately 4.0% in the number of shares of our common stock as of February 28, 2020.
The conversion of preferred stock we issued in the private placements may cause the price of our common stock to decline.
The holders of the shares of our 5% Preferred Stock may freely convert their shares of preferred stock and sell the underlying shares of common stock
pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities and Exchange Commission. As of February 28, 2020, 800,000 shares of our 5% Preferred Stock had converted into
1,272,263 shares of common stock.
The holders of the shares of Series 2 5% Preferred Stock may freely convert their shares of preferred stock and sell the underlying shares of common
stock pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities and Exchange Commission. As of February 28, 2020, 645,200 shares of Series 2 Preferred Stock had converted into
645,200 shares of common stock.
The holders of the shares of Series 3 5% Preferred Stock may freely convert their shares of Series 3 Preferred Stock and sell the underlying shares of
common stock pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities and Exchange Commission. As of February 28, 2020, 298,423 shares of Series 3 Preferred Stock had
converted into 298,423 shares of common stock.
For the four weeks ended on February 28, 2020, the average daily trading volume of our common stock on the OTCQB was 23,020 shares. Consequently,
if holders of preferred stock elect to convert their remaining shares and sell a material amount of their underlying shares of common stock on the open market, the
increase in selling activity could cause a decline in the market price of our common stock. Furthermore, these sales, or the potential for these sales, could
encourage short sales, causing additional downward pressure on the market price of our common stock.
Certain rights of the holders of our preferred stock may hinder our ability to raise additional financing.
Under the terms of our preferred stock instruments, we cannot issue shares of capital stock with rights senior to those of our existing 5% Preferred Stock,
Series 2 5% Preferred Stock or Series 3 5% Preferred Stock without the approval of at least a majority of the holders of our 5% Preferred Stock, all of the holders
of our Series 2 5% Preferred Stock, and holders of at least 75% of our Series 3 5% Preferred Stock voting or acting as separate classes. We also cannot incur
certain indebtedness without the approval of at least a majority of the holders of each class of our Preferred Stock. These restrictions could prevent us from
obtaining additional financing that would require the issuance of equity with superior rights, even is such financing would benefit the Company, strengthen its
financial position, and improve our results of operation.
11
You will experience substantial dilution upon the exercise of certain stock options currently outstanding.
On February 28, 2020, we had 13,753,030 shares of common stock outstanding. Upon the exercising of current options issued at or below the exercise
price of $2.00, we will have approximately 14,647,000 shares of common stock outstanding, a 6.5% increase in the number of shares of our common stock
outstanding.
We resemble a developmental stage company and our business strategy may not be successful.
We depend exclusively on revenues generated from the sale of our network security/advanced persistent threat detection products (Savant), which have
received limited market acceptance, and our entity identification, data mining and analytic product (TraceCop). We can provide no assurances that our products
will ever achieve widespread market acceptance or that an adequate market for these products will ever emerge. Consequently, we resemble a developmental stage
company and will face the following inherent risks and uncertainties:
●
●
●
●
●
the need for our entity identification, data mining and advanced persistent threat detection products to achieve market acceptance and produce a
sustainable revenue stream;
our ability to manage costs and expenses;
our dependence on key personnel;
our ability to obtain financing on acceptable terms; and
our ability to offer greater value than our competitors.
Our business strategy may not successfully address these risks. If we fail to recognize significant revenues from the sales of our entity identification, data
mining and advanced persistent threat detection products, our business, financial condition and operating results would be materially adversely affected.
If we fail to respond to rapid technological changes in the network security industry, we may lose customers or our products may become obsolete.
The network security industry is characterized by frequent product introductions, rapidly changing technology and continued evolution of new industry
standards. We must also introduce upgrades to our products rapidly in response to customer needs such as new computer viruses or other novel external attacks on
computer networks. In addition, the nature of the network security industry requires our products to be compatible and interoperable with numerous security
products, networking products, workstation and personal computer architectures and computer and network operating systems offered by various vendors,
including our competitors. As a result, our success depends upon our ability to develop and introduce in a timely manner new products and enhancements to our
existing products that meet changing customer requirements and evolving industry standards. The development of technologically advanced network security
products is a complex and uncertain process requiring high levels of innovation, rapid response and accurate anticipation of technological and market trends. We
cannot assure you that we will be able to identify, develop, manufacture, market or support new or enhanced products successfully in a timely manner. Further, we
or our competitors may introduce new products or product enhancements that shorten the life cycle of our existing products or cause our existing products to
become obsolete.
We face intense competition from both start-up and established companies that may have significant advantages over us and our products.
The market for our products is intensely competitive. There are numerous companies competing with us in various segments of the data security markets,
and their products may have advantages over our products in areas such as conformity to existing and emerging industry standards, interoperability with
networking and other security products, management and security capabilities, performance, price, ease of use, scalability, reliability, flexibility, product features,
and technical support.
Our principal competitors in the data mining and advanced persistent threat market include Niksun, NetScout, Fireeye (Mandiant) and Palo Alto
Networks. Our current and potential competitors may have one or more of the following significant advantages over us:
●
●
●
●
●
greater financial, technical and marketing resources;
better name recognition;
more comprehensive security solutions;
better or more extensive cooperative relationships; and
larger customer base.
12
We cannot assure you that we will be able to compete successfully with our existing or new competitors. Some of our competitors may have, in relation to
us, one or more of the following:
●
●
●
longer operating histories;
longer-standing relationships with OEM and end-user customers; and
greater customer service, public relations and other resources.
As a result, these competitors may be able to more quickly develop or adapt to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements, or
devote greater resources to the development, promotion and sale of their products. Additionally, it is likely that new competitors or alliances among existing
competitors could emerge and rapidly acquire significant market share.
Our management and larger stockholders exercise significant control over our Company and have the ability to approve or take actions that may be in conflict
to your interests.
As of February 28, 2020, our executive officers, directors and preferred stockholders beneficially own approximately 24% of our voting power. In
addition, other related parties control approximately 35% of our voting power. As a result, these stockholders will be able to exercise significant control over all
matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions, which could delay or prevent someone
from acquiring or merging with us. These stockholders may use their influence to approve or take actions that may be adverse to the interests of other holders of
our Common Stock.
Our products are highly technical and if they contain undetected errors, our business could be adversely affected and we might have to defend lawsuits or pay
damages in connection with any alleged or actual failure of our products and services.
Our products are highly technical and complex, are critical to the operation of many networks and, in the case of our security products, provide and
monitor network security and may protect valuable information. Our products have contained and may contain one or more undetected errors, defects or security
vulnerabilities. Some errors in our products may only be discovered after a product has been installed and used by end customers. Any errors or security
vulnerabilities discovered in our products after commercial release could result in loss of revenues or delay in revenue recognition, loss of customers and increased
service and warranty cost, any of which could adversely affect our business and results of operations. In addition, we could face claims for product liability, tort, or
breach of warranty. Defending a lawsuit, regardless of its merit, is costly and may divert management’s attention. In addition, if our business liability insurance
coverage is inadequate or future coverage is unavailable on acceptable terms or at all, our financial condition could be harmed.
A breach of network security could harm public perception of our security products, which could cause us to lose revenues.
If an actual or perceived breach of network security occurs in the network of a customer of our security products, regardless of whether the breach is
attributable to our products, the market perception of the effectiveness of our products could be harmed. This could cause us to lose current and potential end
customers or cause us to lose current and potential value-added resellers and distributors. Because the techniques used by computer hackers to access or sabotage
networks change frequently and generally are not recognized until launched against a target, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques.
If our products do not interoperate with our customers’ networks, installations will be delayed or cancelled and could harm our business.
Our products are designed to interface with our customers’ existing networks, each of which have different specifications and utilize multiple protocol
standards and products from other vendors. Many of our customers’ networks contain multiple generations of products that have been added over time as these
networks have grown and evolved. Our products will be required to interoperate with many or all of the products within these networks as well as future products
in order to meet our customers’ requirements. If we find errors in the existing software or defects in the hardware used in our customers’ networks, we may have to
modify our software or hardware to fix or overcome these errors so that our products will interoperate and scale with the existing software and hardware, which
could be costly and negatively impact our operating results. In addition, if our products do not interoperate with those of our customers’ networks, demand for our
products could be adversely affected, orders for our products could be cancelled, or our products could be returned. This could hurt our operating results, damage
our reputation and seriously harm our business and prospects.
13
Our products can have long sales and implementation cycles, which may result in us incurring substantial expenses before realizing any associated revenues.
The sale and implementation of our products to large companies and government entities typically involves a lengthy education process and a significant
technical evaluation and commitment of capital and other resources. This process is also subject to the risk of delays associated with customers’ internal budgeting
and other procedures for approving capital expenditures, deploying new technologies within their networks, and testing and accepting new technologies that affect
key operations. As a result, sales and implementation cycles for our products can be lengthy, and we may expend significant time and resources before we receive
any revenues from a customer or potential customer. Our quarterly and annual operating results could be materially harmed if orders forecast for a specific
customer and for a particular period are not realized.
Consolidation in the network security industry may limit market acceptance of our products.
Several of our competitors have acquired security companies with complementary technologies in the past. We expect consolidation in the network
security industry to continue in the future. These acquisitions may permit our competitors to accelerate the development and commercialization of broader product
lines and more comprehensive solutions than we currently offer. Acquisitions of vendors or other companies with which we have a strategic relationship by our
competitors may limit our access to commercially significant technologies. Further, business combinations in the network security industry are creating companies
with larger market shares, customer bases, sales forces, product offerings and technology and marketing expertise, which may make it more difficult for us to
compete.
We must adequately protect our intellectual property in order to prevent loss of valuable proprietary information.
We rely primarily on a combination of patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret laws, confidentiality procedures, and non-disclosure agreements to
protect our proprietary technology. However, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy or reverse-engineer aspects of our products or to obtain and use
information that we regard as proprietary. Policing unauthorized use of our products is difficult, and we cannot be certain that the steps we have taken will prevent
misappropriation of our intellectual property. This is particularly true in foreign countries whose laws may not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the
laws of the United States and may not provide us with an effective remedy against unauthorized use. If our protection of our intellectual property proves to be
inadequate or unenforceable, others may be able to use our proprietary developments without compensation to us, resulting in potential cost advantages to our
competitors.
We may incur substantial expenses defending ourselves against claims of infringement.
There are numerous patents held by many companies relating to the design and manufacture of network security systems. Third parties may claim that our
products infringe on their intellectual property rights. Any claim, with or without merit, could consume our management’s time, result in costly litigation, cause
delays in sales or implementations of our products or require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements. Royalty and licensing agreements, if required and
available, may be on terms unacceptable to us or detrimental to our business. Moreover, a successful claim of product infringement against us or our failure or
inability to license the infringed or similar technology on commercially reasonable terms could seriously harm our business.
Our common stock is thinly traded, which may negatively affect your ability to sell our shares on the OTCQB Marketplace (the “OTCQB”) as well as adversely
affect the price at which you may be able to sell those shares.
For the four weeks ended on February 28, 2020, the average daily trading volume of our common stock on the OTCQB was 23,020 shares. Such thin
trading may make it more difficult for you to liquidate your holdings in our common stock or negatively affect the price per share that you are able to realize from
such sales.
14
The price of our common stock has been volatile in the past and may continue to be volatile in the future due to factors outside of our control.
The market price of our common stock has been highly volatile in the past and may continue to be volatile in the future. During fiscal year 2019, the
market price of our common stock on the OTCQB fluctuated between $2.90 and $5.55 per share and between $0.81 and $3.91 in 2018. The market price of our
common stock may fluctuate significantly in the future in response to a number of factors, many of which are outside our control, including:
●
●
●
●
●
●
●
●
●
variations in our quarterly operating results;
changes in estimates of our financial performance by securities analysts;
changes in market valuations of our competitors;
thinly traded common stock;
announcements by us or our competitors of new products, significant contracts, acquisitions, strategic relationships, joint ventures or capital
commitments;
product or design flaws, product recalls or similar occurrences;
additions or departures of key personnel;
sales of common stock in the future; and
fluctuations in stock market prices and volume, which are relatively typical for high technology companies.
Our acquisition of complementary products or businesses may adversely affect our financial condition.
We have made acquisitions in the past and, in the future we may acquire or invest in additional companies, business units, product lines or technologies to
accelerate the development of products and sales channels complementary to our existing products and sales channels. Negotiation of potential acquisitions and
integration of acquired products, technologies or businesses could divert our management’s time and resources. Future acquisitions could cause us to issue equity
securities that would dilute your ownership of us, incur debt or contingent liabilities, amortize intangible assets or write off in-process research and development,
goodwill and other acquisition-related expenses that could seriously harm our financial condition and operating results. Further, if we are not able to properly
integrate acquired products, technologies or businesses with our existing products and operations, train, retain and motivate personnel from the acquired business
or combine potentially different corporate cultures, we may not receive the intended benefits of our acquisitions, which could adversely affect our business,
operating results and financial condition.
Compliance with export regulations may hinder our sales to foreign customers.
Certain of our data security products incorporate encryption and other technology that may require clearance and export licenses from the U.S.
Department of Commerce under United States export regulations. Any inability to obtain these clearances or licenses or any foreign regulatory approvals, if
required, on a timely basis could delay sales and have a material adverse effect on our operating results.
Item 2. Properties.
Our headquarters are located in a two-story building in Richardson, Texas. We occupy approximately 23,000 square feet of floor space in this facility.
This facility houses our corporate administration, operations, marketing, research and development, engineering, sales and technical support personnel. The lease
for this facility extends through November 2024.
Approximately thirty percent of our security software research and development and engineering staff are located in two separate small facilities in San
Diego, California. The leases for these facilities are currently set to expire in March 2020 and March 2021. The two San Diego facilities are in the process of
closing due to all California employees currently working from home offices.
We believe that the existing facilities at December 31, 2019, will be adequate to meet our operational requirements through 2020. We believe that all such
facilities are adequately covered by appropriate property insurance. See Note 4 to our Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding our
obligations under leases.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings.
We are subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. We do not believe that any claims exist where the outcome of
such matters would have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, operating results or cash flows. However, there can be no assurance such
legal proceedings will not have a material impact on future results.
15
PART II
Item 5. Market for Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters and Business Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.
Our common stock trades on the OTCQB, where it is currently listed under the symbol “INTZ.” As of February 28, 2020, there were approximately 120
registered holders of record of our common stock. Quotations on the OTCQB reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission and
may not represent actual transactions.
Shares of our 5% convertible preferred stock accrue cash dividends equal to $0.25 per share per annum, payable in arrears on March 31 and September 30
of each year, and shares of our Series 2 5% and Series 3 5% convertible preferred stock accrue cash dividends equal to $0.125 and $0.109 per share per annum,
respectively, payable in arrears on the first business day of March, June, September and December of each year. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019,
we accrued $50,000 in dividends to the holders of our 5% Preferred Stock, $57,000 in dividends to the holders of our Series 2 5% Preferred Stock and $32,000 in
dividends to the holders of our Series 3 5% Preferred Stock. Delaware law provides that we may only pay dividends out of our capital surplus or, if no surplus is
available, out of our net profits for the fiscal year the dividend is declared and/or the preceding fiscal year.
All stock option plans under which our common stock is reserved for issuance have previously been approved by our stockholders. The following table
provides summary information as of December 31, 2019 for all of our equity compensation plans (in thousands, except per share data). See Note 9 to our
consolidated financial statements for additional discussion.

heading “Risk Factors,” include, but are not limited to:
●
●
●
●
●
●
●
●
our ability to maintain sufficient cash to operate our business and to meet future liquidity requirements;
our ability to successfully transition responsibilities from our president, chairman, and co-founder G. Ward Paxton to Michael Paxton;
our ability to secure new financing to replace our prior borrowing ability under the note with our former CEO and our facility with Silicon
Valley Bank, neither of which is available to us moving forward;
anticipated fluctuations in quarterly revenues;
a concentration in governmental customers with unique risks attached;
competition from companies with greater financial resources;
our response to rapid technological shifts in the network security industry and consistently changing laws and regulations concerning consumer
privacy and personally identifiable information; and
risks related to our common stock as well as the effect of the superior rights and privileges of our various classes of preferred stock over the
rights of the holders of our common stock.
16
If one or more of these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or if our underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may vary
significantly from what we projected. Any forward-looking statement you read in this filing reflects our current views with respect to future events and is subject to
these and other risks, uncertainties and assumptions relating to our operations, results of operations, growth strategy and liquidity. We assume no obligation to

Overview
We develop, market and support a family of entity identification products, data mining and advanced persistent threat detection products. Our product
families include:
●
●
The TraceCop™ product line, including many of our proprietary supporting tools, allows our customers and in-house cyber analysts to
accurately discover and help identify ‘bad actors’ associated with cybercrime. The TraceCop product family is built upon an extensive database
based on over 20 years of Internet data, Internet understanding and cyber security analytical experience. Along with a multitude of cyber security
‘global threat feeds’, this vast and ever expanding database is used in conjunction with our customer’s data to help identify areas of vulnerability
and potential cyber security threats. We offer our customers a daily, weekly or monthly enrichment service to assist them in the culling of ‘good’
data traffic from potential threats.
The Savant™ product is a ‘purpose-built’, very high-speed network data mining and analytics software package that is easily installed on COTS
(commercial off the shelf) platforms. Its patented design exceeds performance expectations and ensures ‘deep dives’ into data-in-motion in order
to quickly and accurately detect advanced persistent threats.
Our customers’ use our products and services as an integral part of protecting their critical infrastructure and data information assets. By quickly
detecting, protecting, analyzing and reporting attacks, along with the potential misuse of classified information, we have become a key component to the daily
challenges of cybercrime for both state and federal governments and large private commercial enterprises.
Our revenues have been fairly consistent over the past few years due primarily to our focus on our TraceCop and Savant product lines. To date, we have
not encountered significant competition in the TraceCop and Savant markets that has caused us to decrease our sales prices when compared to sales prices in
previous years. To help keep our operation expenses under control, we held our employee headcount at a reasonable level in 2019 compared to 2018. At December
31, 2018, we employed 31 full time persons and at December 31, 2019, we employed 32 full time persons. Our margins for direct labor only were comparable at
63.0% in 2018, and 61.0% in 2019.
In order for us to operate and grow our business, we must generate and sustain sufficient operating profits and cash flow in future periods. This will
require us to continue to generate revenues from sales of our entity identification software, data mining and advanced persistent threat products. In order to obtain
these sales, our products must gain acceptance in a competitive industry. We believe our ability to market and sell our TraceCop and Savant products into the
marketplace in a timely manner and our efforts to effectively control spending levels will help us achieve these results.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have
been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make
estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On
an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to product returns, bad debts, inventories, income taxes, warranty obligations, maintenance
contracts and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the
circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other
sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
17
We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated
financial statements.
Revenue Recognition
We generally recognize product revenue upon shipment. These products can include hardware, perpetual software licenses and data sets. Data set updates
are the majority of our sales. We do not currently offer software on a subscription basis. Warranty costs and sales returns have not been material.
We recognize sales of our data sets in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 606 whereby revenue from contracts with customers is not recognized until all
five of the following have been met:
identify the contract with a customer;
identify the performance obligations in the contract;
i)
ii)
iii) determine the transaction price;
iv) allocate the transaction price to the separate performance obligations; and
v)
recognize revenue upon satisfaction of a performance obligation.
Data updates are typically done monthly and revenue will be matched accordingly. Product sales may include maintenance and customer support
allocated revenue in an arrangement using estimated selling prices of the delivered goods and services based on a selling price hierarchy using the relative selling
price method. All of our product offering and service offering market values are readily determined based on current and prior stand-alone sales. We may defer and
recognize maintenance, updates and support revenue over the term of the contract period, which is generally one year.
Service revenue, primarily including maintenance, training and installation, are recognized upon delivery of the service and typically are unrelated to
product sales. To date, maintenance, training and installation revenue has not been material. Our normal payment terms offered to customers, distributors and
resellers are net 30 days domestically and net 45 days internationally. We do not offer payment terms that extend beyond one year and rarely do we extend
payment terms beyond our normal terms. If certain customers do not meet our credit standards, we do require payment in advance to limit our credit exposure.
Shipping and handling costs are billed to the customer and included in product revenue. Shipping and handling expenses are included in cost of product
revenue.
Allowances for Doubtful Accounts
We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. Our
receivables are uncollaterized, and we expect to continue this policy in the future. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an
impairment of their ability to make payments, increased allowances may be required. Historically, our estimates for sales returns and doubtful accounts have not
differed materially from actual results.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
We calculate the fair value of our assets and liabilities which qualify as financial instruments and include additional information in the notes to
consolidated financial statements when the fair value is different than the carrying value of these financial instruments. The estimated fair value of accounts
receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and dividends payable approximate their carrying amounts due to the relatively short maturity of these
instruments. Loan payable to officer is with a related party and as a result does not bear market rates of interest. Capital leases approximate fair value as they bear
market rates of interest. Management believes based on its current financial position that it could not obtain comparable amounts of third party financing, and as
such cannot estimate the fair value of the loans payable to officer. None of these instruments are held for trading purposes.

20.9%
Total revenue increased 32.8% to $13.6 million in 2019 from $10.3 million in 2018. The increase in revenue was related to growth in our TraceCop
product line. We expect our product revenues to increase in the future if we are able to increase sales to existing customers and add new customers.
There were no export sales in 2019 and 2018 primarily due to our focus on domestic revenue sales. Sales of our products internationally may be subject to
currency exchange risk, which may cause our products to effectively increase in price, if the exchange rate moves significantly and the dollar gains value over the
foreign currency.
Historically, due to the timing of our sales cycle, a significant portion of our monthly sales occurs in the second half of the month. Accordingly, our
receivables increase at the end of each month, which causes a higher accounts receivable balance at month end. This monthly trend also causes an inflated
comparative relationship between revenue and accounts receivable. We believe that this monthly trend will continue because monthly sales forecast and planning
meetings are held in the first week of every month, the middle of the month is focused on sales calls to customers and the latter half of the month on closing sales.
Gross Profit
Gross profit increased 29.1% to $8.3 million in 2019 from $6.4 million in 2018. As a percentage of net revenue, gross profit decreased from 62.6% in
2018 to 60.8% in 2019. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue, decreased in 2019 compared to 2018 because of higher labor costs related to certain projects.
Gross profit as a percentage of net revenue is impacted by several factors, including shifts in product mix, changes in channels of distribution, sales
volume, fluctuations in manufacturing costs, labor costs, pricing strategies, and fluctuations in sales of integrated third-party products.
Sales and Marketing
Sales and marketing expenses decreased to $1.3 million or 9.5% of net revenue in 2019, compared to $1.6 million or 15.6% of net revenue in 2018. The
decrease in sales and marketing expense was mainly due to collecting a payment of $200 thousand from a customer related sales and marketing expense that
occurred during the year 2018. Sales and marketing expenses may vary in the future. We expect sales and marketing expenses to increase if we are able to increase
net revenue levels in 2020. Sales and marketing expense levels may fluctuate due to labor expense shifting to direct labor.
19
Research and Development
Research and development expenses increased to $1.3 million or 9.6% of net revenue in 2019 compared to $1.2 million or 12.1% of net revenue in 2018.
The increase in research and development expense was due to less labor expense shifted to direct labor costs. Our research and development costs are expensed in
the period in which they are incurred. We expect research and development expenses to increase if we are able to increase net revenue levels in 2020. Research and
development expense levels may fluctuate due to labor expense shifting to direct labor.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses remained fairly constant at $1.2 million, or 8.7% of net revenue in 2019 compared to $1.1 million or 10.8% of net
revenue in 2018 as a result of continuing efforts to keep spending under control. We expect general and administration expenses to remain fairly constant but
increase if we are able to increase net revenue levels in 2020.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased to $46 thousand in 2019, compared to $189 thousand in 2018. Interest expense decreased due to decreased amount of Loan
Payable to Officer culminating in our repayment of the balance in May 2019. Interest expense will vary in the future based on our cash flow and borrowing needs.
Interest Income
Interest income earned on bank deposits was $4 thousand in 2019 compared to none in 2018.
Income Taxes
Our effective income tax rate was 0% in 2019 and 2018 as valuation allowances have been recorded for the entire amount of the net deferred tax assets
due to uncertainty of realization. On December 22, 2017, the U.S. enacted the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“the Tax Act”) which significantly changed U.S. tax law.
The Tax Act lowered the Company’s statutory federal income tax rate from a maximum of 39% to a rate of 21% effective January 1, 2018.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal source of liquidity at December 31, 2019 was $3.3 million of cash and cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2019, we did not hold
investments with a stated maturity beyond one year. Working capital at December 31, 2019 was $3.1 million, while at December 31, 2018, it was $0.5 million.
Net cash provided by operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019, was $4.3 million due primarily to a net income of $4.5 million and the
following sources of cash and non-cash items: $232 thousand in noncash lease costs, a $401 thousand decrease in accounts receivable, $125 thousand in
depreciation expense, $59 thousand in amortization expense of capital leases and other assets, $47 thousand in stock-based compensation , and $6 thousand in
waived penalties on dividends. This was partially offset by a $496 thousand decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses, a $488 thousand decrease in
deferred revenue, and a $61 thousand increase in prepaid expenses and other assets. Net cash provided by operations for the twelve months ended December 31,
2018, was $2.6 million due primarily to a net income of $2.3 million and the following sources of cash and non-cash items: an $598 thousand increase in deferred
revenue, a $421 thousand increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses, $68 thousand in depreciation expense, $65 thousand in amortization expense of
capital leases and other assets, a $64 thousand write-off of the United Kingdom’s cumulative translation adjustment, $47 thousand in waived penalties on
dividends, $20 thousand in stock-based compensation, and a $15 thousand decrease in inventories. This was partially offset by a $1.0 million increase in accounts
receivable and a $2 thousand increase in prepaid expenses and other assets. Future fluctuations in accounts receivable, inventory balances and accounts payable
will be dependent upon several factors, including quarterly sales, timely collection of accounts receivable, and the accuracy of our forecasts of product demand and
component requirements.
Net cash used in investing activities in 2019 was $260 thousand for purchases of property and equipment. Net cash used in investing activities in 2018
was $202 thousand for purchases of property and equipment.
20
Net cash used in financing activities in 2019 was $2.3 million primarily due to payments on the loan by an officer of $1.8 million, $714 thousand payment
of dividends on preferred stock, and $58 thousand payments on principal on capital leases. This was directly offset by a provision of cash of $239 thousand from
the exercise of stock options. Net cash used in financing activities in 2018 was $0.9 million primarily due to payments on the loan by an officer of $1.2 million
with a $66 thousand payment on principal on capital leases. This was directly offset by the following provisions of cash: proceeds from a loan by an officer of
$150 thousand and $168 thousand from the exercise of stock options.
At December 31, 2019, we had a commitment of $66 thousand for future finance lease liabilites. Operating lease commitments of $1.8 million are
detailed in the Contractual Obligations section below. At December 31, 2018, we had a commitment of $128 thousand for future finance lease liabilties, while
operating lease commitments were $2.1 million. During 2019, we funded our operations through the use of available cash and cash equivalents.
As of December 31, 2019, we had cash and cash equivalents in the amount of approximately $3.3 million, increasing from $1.7 million as of
December 31, 2018.
On February 8, 2018, the Company entered into an unsecured revolving promissory note to borrow up to $3,700,000 from G. Ward Paxton, the
Company’s former Chief Executive Officer (the “CEO Note”). Under the terms of the CEO Note, the Company had the ability to borrow, repay and reborrow on
the loan as needed up to an outstanding principal balance due of $3,700,000 at any given time through March 2020.
On February 7, 2019, the Company amended the unsecured revolving promissory note to borrow up to $2,700,000 from G. Ward Paxton, the Company’s
former Chief Executive Officer. Amounts borrowed under the CEO Note accrued interest at a floating rate per annum equal to Silicon Valley Bank’s (“SVB”)
prime rate plus 1%. Under the terms of the note, the Company had the ability to borrow, repay and reborrow on the loan as needed up to an outstanding principal
balance due of $2,700,000 at any given time through March 2021. We reduced our borrowing under this note to zero as of May 2019.
As of October 24, 2019, G. Ward Paxton passed away, terminating the CEO Note with the result that future borrowings thereunder will no longer be
available to the Company. Our management will be assessing whether to replace this borrowing base and assessing what terms may be available to the Company,
including whether any such terms are acceptable to the Company, if at all.
As of December 31, 2019, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $3,334,000, up from approximately $1,652,000 as of December 31, 2018.
We generated a net income of $4,465,000 for the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to a net income of $2,287,000 for the year ended December 31, 2018.
We are obligated to make payments of accrued dividends on all our outstanding shares of preferred stock that will reduce our available cash resources. Based on
the current forecast for the year 2020, we believe that we will have sufficient cash resources to finance our operations and expected capital expenditures through
March 31, 2021. As of October 24, 2019, our funding available from the CEO Note terminated. Our management will be assessing whether to replace this
borrowing base and assessing what terms may be available to the Company, including whether any such terms available are acceptable to the Company, if at all
(the “Potential Replacement Facility”). Any equity or debt financings, if available at all, may be on terms which are not favorable to us and, in the case of equity
financings, may result in dilution to our stockholders. We expect to fund our operations through anticipated Company profits, possibly additional investments of
private equity and debt, which, if we are able to obtain, will have the effect of diluting our existing common stockholders, perhaps significantly, and a possible
Potential Replacement Facility. If our operations do not generate positive cash flow in the upcoming year, or if we are not able to obtain additional debt or equity
financing on terms and conditions acceptable to us, if at all, we may be unable to implement our business plan, fund our liquidity needs or even continue our
operations.
We may explore the possible acquisitions of businesses, products and technologies that are complementary to our existing business. We are continuing to
identify and prioritize additional security technologies, which we may wish to develop, either internally or through the licensing, or acquisition of products from
third parties. While we may engage from time to time in discussions with respect to potential acquisitions, there can be no assurances that any such acquisitions
will be made or that we will be able to successfully integrate any acquired business. In order to finance such acquisitions and working capital it may be necessary
for us to raise additional funds through public or private financings. Any equity or debt financings, if available at all, may be on terms, which are not favorable to
us and, in the case of equity financings, may result in dilution to our stockholders.
Contractual Obligations
The following table sets forth certain information concerning the future contractual obligations under our leases at December 31, 2019. We had no other
significant contractual obligations at December 31, 2019.

See Note 2 Consolidated Financial Statements
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company’s management, under the supervision and with the participation of the Interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer
(Michael L. Paxton currently holds both positions), conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls
and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based on this
evaluation, the Interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company’s
disclosure controls and procedures are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or
submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and
Exchange Commission, and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer,
as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-
15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of the Company’s financial reporting and the preparation of
consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
The Company’s management, under the supervision and with the participation of the Interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer
(Michael L. Paxton currently holds both positions), conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based
on criteria established in 2013 Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
Management’s evaluation included an assessment of elements such as the design and operating effectiveness of key financial reporting controls, process
documentation, accounting policies, and the Company’s overall control environment. Based on its evaluation, management concluded that the Company’s internal
control over financial reporting was effective as of the year ended December 31, 2019 to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of the Company’s
financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles. The Company reviewed the results of management’s assessment with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.
22
This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial
reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange
Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report. This report shall not be deemed to be filed for purposes of
Section 18 of the Exchange Act or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, and is not incorporated by reference into any filing of the Company, whether
made before or after the date hereof, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
The Company’s management, including the Interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (Michael L. Paxton currently holds both
positions), does not expect that the Company’s disclosure controls or internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A
control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met.
The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.
Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud
will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain
assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future
conditions. Projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of controls to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because
of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the quarter ended December 31, 2019, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and
15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Board of Directors and Shareholders
Intrusion Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Intrusion Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the
related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively
referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of
December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be
independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were
we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control
over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly,
we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing
procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
We have served as the Company's auditor since 2009.

INTRUSION INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Description of Business
We develop, market, and support a family of entity identification, data mining, regulated information compliance and data privacy protection. Our product
families include: TraceCop for identity identification, Savant for data mining and advanced persistent threat detection and Compliance Commander for regulated
information and data privacy protection. Intrusion’s products help protect critical information assets by quickly detecting, protecting, analyzing and reporting
attacks or misuse of classified, private and regulated information for government and enterprise networks.
We market and distribute our products through a direct sales force to end-users, distributors and numerous system integrators, managed service providers
and value-added resellers. Our end-user customers include banks, credit unions, other financial institutions, U.S. federal government entities, foreign government
entities, hospitals and other healthcare providers. Essentially, our end-users can be defined as end-users requiring network security solutions for protecting their
mission critical data.
References to the “Company”, “we”, “us”, “our”, “Intrusion” or “Intrusion Inc.” refer to Intrusion Inc. and its subsidiaries. Compliance Commander™
and TraceCop™ are registered trademarks of Intrusion Inc.
As of December 31, 2019, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $3,334,000, up from approximately $1,652,000 as of December 31, 2018.
We generated a net income of $4,465,000 for the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to a net income of $2,287,000 for the year ended December 31, 2018.
We are obligated to make payments of accrued dividends on all our outstanding shares of preferred stock that will reduce our available cash resources. Based on
the current forecast for the year 2020, we believe that we will have sufficient cash resources to finance our operations and expected capital expenditures through
March 31, 2021. As of October 24, 2019, our funding available from the CEO Note terminated. Our management will be assessing whether to replace this
borrowing base and assessing what terms may be available to the Company, including whether any such terms available are acceptable to the Company, if at all
(the “Potential Replacement Facility”). Any equity or debt financings, if available at all, may be on terms which are not favorable to us and, in the case of equity
financings, may result in dilution to our stockholders. We expect to fund our operations through anticipated Company profits, possibly additional investments of
private equity and debt, which, if we are able to obtain, will have the effect of diluting our existing common stockholders, perhaps significantly, and a possible
Potential Replacement Facility. If our operations do not generate positive cash flow in the upcoming year, or if we are not able to obtain additional debt or equity
financing on terms and conditions acceptable to us, if at all, we may be unable to implement our business plan, fund our liquidity needs or even continue our
operations.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
Our consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our wholly owned subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions have
been eliminated in consolidation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of less than three months are considered to be cash and cash equivalents.
Risk Concentration
Financial instruments, which potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk, are primarily cash and cash equivalents, investments and accounts
receivable. Cash and cash equivalent deposits are at risk to the extent that they exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured amounts. To minimize risk,
we place our investments in U.S. government obligations, corporate securities and money market funds. Substantially all of our cash, cash equivalents and
investments are maintained with two major U.S. financial institutions. We do not believe that we are subject to any unusual financial risk with our banking
arrangements. We have not experienced any significant losses on our cash and cash equivalents.
We sell our products to customers primarily in the United States. In the future, we may sale our products internationally. Fluctuations in currency
exchange rates and adverse economic developments in foreign countries could adversely affect the Company’s operating results. We perform ongoing credit
evaluations of our customers’ financial condition and generally require no collateral. We maintain reserves for potential credit losses, and such losses, in the
aggregate, have historically been minimal.
F-6
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Trade accounts receivable are stated at the amount we expect to collect. We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from
the inability of our customers to make required payments. Management considers the following factors when determining the collectability of specific customer
accounts: customer credit-worthiness, past transaction history with the customer, current economic industry trends, and changes in customer payment terms. If the
financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, adversely affecting their ability to make payments, additional allowances would be required. Based on
management’s assessment, we provide for estimated uncollectible amounts through a charge to earnings and an increase to a valuation allowance. Balances that
remain outstanding after we have used reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the valuation allowance. There was no allowance at
December 31, 2019 and 2018.
Property and Equipment
Equipment and furniture and fixtures are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful
lives of the assets. Such lives vary from 1 to 5 years. Leasehold improvements are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and are amortized on a straight-line
basis over the shorter of estimated useful lives of the assets or the remaining terms of the leases. Such lives vary from 2 to 5 years. Expenditures for major renewals
and betterments that extend the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized. Repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation and
amortization expense totaled approximately $184,000 and $133,000 for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
Long-Lived Assets
We review long-lived assets, including property and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying
amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future
undiscounted cash flows to be generated by the asset. If the carrying value exceeds the future undiscounted cash flows, the assets are written down to fair value.
During the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, there was no impairment of long-lived assets.
Foreign Currency
All assets and liabilities in the balance sheets of foreign subsidiaries whose functional currency is other than the U.S. dollar are translated at year-end
exchange rates. All revenues and expenses in the statement of operations of these foreign subsidiaries are translated at average exchange rates for the year.
Translation gains and losses are not included in determining net income but are shown in accumulated other comprehensive loss in the stockholders’ deficit section
of the consolidated balance sheet. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in determining net loss and were not significant.
Accounting for Stock Options
We account for stock options using the guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”) Topic 718.
FASB ASC Topic 718 requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements
based on their fair values.
Stock-based compensation expense recognized in the statements of operations for the years ended 2019 and 2018 is based on awards ultimately expected
to vest, reduced by estimated forfeitures. FASB ASC Topic 718 requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent
periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates.
Valuation Assumptions
The fair values of option awards were estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions for fiscal
years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively:
Weighted average grant date fair value
Weighted average assumptions used:
Expected dividend yield
Risk-free interest rate
Expected volatility
Expected life (in years)

2.00%
124.58%
5.00
0.00%
0.83%
225.21%
4.91
Expected volatility is based on historical volatility and in part on implied volatility. The expected term considers the contractual term of the option as well
as historical exercise and forfeiture behavior. The risk-free interest rate is based on the rates in effect on the grant date for U.S. Treasury instruments with
maturities matching the relevant expected term of the award.
F-7
Net Loss Per Share
We report two separate net loss per share numbers, basic and diluted. Basic net loss attributable to common stockholders per share is computed by
dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders for the year by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the year. Diluted net loss
attributable to common stockholders per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders for the year by the weighted average
number of common shares and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding for the year. Our common stock equivalents include all common stock issuable
upon conversion of convertible preferred stock and the exercise of outstanding options. Common stock equivalents are included in the diluted loss per share for the
years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 except in cases where the issuance would be anti-dilutive. The aggregate number of common stock equivalents excluded
from the diluted loss per share calculation for the year ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 totaled 30,630 and zero, respectively.
Revenue Recognition
On January 1, 2018 we adopted ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as amended, using the modified retrospective approach. At
the date of adoption there was no impact on the balance sheet or statement of operation. ASU No. 2014-09 did not have a material effect on the Company’s
financial position, results of operations or cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2019.
We generally recognize product revenue upon shipment or after meeting certain performance obligations. These products can include hardware, perpetual
software licenses and data sets. Data set updates are the majority of our sales. We do not currently offer software on a subscription basis. Warranty costs and sales
returns have not been material.
We recognize sales of our data sets in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 606 whereby revenue from contracts with customers is not recognized until all
five of the following have been met:
identify the contract with a customer;
identify the performance obligations in the contract;
i)
ii)
iii) determine the transaction price;
iv) allocate the transaction price to the separate performance obligations; and
v)
recognize revenue upon satisfaction of a performance obligation.
Data updates are typically done monthly and revenue will be matched accordingly. Product sales may include maintenance and customer support
allocated revenue in an arrangement using estimated selling prices of the delivered goods and services based on a selling price hierarchy using the relative selling
price method. All of our product offering and service offering market values are readily determined based on current and prior stand-alone sales. We may defer and
recognize maintenance, updates and support revenue over the term of the contract period, which is generally one year.
Service revenue, primarily including maintenance, training and installation are recognized upon delivery of the service and typically are unrelated to
product sales. To date, training and installation revenue has not been material. These revenues are included in net customer support and maintenance revenues in
the statement of operations.
Our normal payment terms offered to customers, distributors and resellers are net 30 days domestically and net 45 days internationally. We do not offer
payment terms that extend beyond one year and rarely do we extend payment terms beyond our normal terms. If certain customers do not meet our credit
standards, we do require payment in advance to limit our credit exposure.
Shipping and handling costs are billed to the customer and included in product revenue. Shipping and handling expenses are included in cost of product
revenue. We have elected to account for shipping and handling costs as fulfillment costs after the customer obtains control of the goods.
Research and Development Costs
We incur research and development costs that relate primarily to the development of new security software, appliances and integrated solutions, and
major enhancements to existing services and products. Research and development costs are comprised primarily of salaries and related benefits expenses, contract
labor and prototype and other related expenses.
F-8
Software development costs are included in research and development and are expensed as incurred. FASB ASC Topic 350 Intangibles—Goodwill and
Other requires that software development costs incurred subsequent to reaching technological feasibility be capitalized, if material. If the process of developing a
new product or major enhancement does not include a detailed program design, technological feasibility is determined only after completion of a working model.
To date, the period between achieving technological feasibility and the general availability of such software has been short, and the software development costs
qualifying for capitalization have been insignificant.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and
expenses during the reporting period. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for doubtful accounts, sales discounts, sales returns, revenue
recognition, warranty costs, inventory obsolescence, depreciation and income taxes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
We calculate the fair value of our assets and liabilities which qualify as financial instruments and include additional information in the notes to
consolidated financial statements when the fair value is different than the carrying value of these financial instruments. The estimated fair value of accounts
receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and dividends payable approximate their carrying amounts due to the relatively short maturity of these
instruments. Loans payable to officer are with a related party and as a result do not bear market rates of interest. Capital leases approximate fair value as they bear
market rates of interest. Management believes based on its current financial position that it could not obtain comparable amounts of third party financing, and as
such cannot estimate the fair value of the loan payable to officer. None of these instruments are held for trading purposes.
Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes are determined using the liability method in accordance with FASB ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets
and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and
liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in
which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in
income in the period that includes the enactment date. In addition, a valuation allowance is established to reduce any deferred tax asset for which it is determined
that it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.
FASB ASC 740 creates a single model to address accounting for uncertainty in tax positions by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold that a tax
position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. FASB ASC 740 also provides guidance on derecognition, measurement,
classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. There are no unrecognized tax benefits to disclose in the notes to the
consolidated financial statements.
We file income tax returns in the United States federal jurisdiction. At December 31, 2019, tax returns related to fiscal years ended December 31, 2016
through December 31, 2018 remain open to possible examination by the tax authorities. No tax returns are currently under examination by any tax authorities. We
did not incur any penalties or interest during the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018. On December 22, 2017, the U.S. enacted the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act
(“the Tax Act”) which significantly changed U.S. tax law. The Tax Act lowered the Company’s statutory federal income tax rate from a maximum of 39% to a
rate of 21% effective January 1, 2018.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
On January 1, 2019 we adopted ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (topic 842). At the date of adoption there was no impact on the statement of operations, while
the balance sheet reflects recording both assets and liabilities applicable to the operating right-of-use asset lease identified. ASU No. 2016-02 did not have a
material effect on the Company’s results of operations or cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Under the new lease accounting standard, we have determined that we have leases for right-of-use (ROU) assets. We have both finance right-of-use assets
and operating right-of-use assets with a related lease liability. Our finance lease right-of-use assets consist of computer hardware and a copying machine. Our
operating lease right-of-use assets include our rental agreements for our offices in Richardson and San Marcos, CA. Both types of lease liabilities are determined
by the net present value of total payments and are amortized over the life of the lease. Both types of lease obligations are designed to terminate with the last
scheduled payment. All of the finance lease right-of-use assets have a three year life and are in various stages of completion. The Richardson operating lease
liability has a life of four years and eleven months as of December 31, 2019. The San Marcos operating lease liability has a life of fifteen months as of December
31, 2019. The adoption of the lease accounting standard resulted in the recognition of an operating ROU asset of $1,580 thousand and a related lease liability of
$1,771 thousand.
Additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures regarding the Company's leasing arrangements are also required. The Company adopted ASC 842
prospectively and elected the package of transition practical expedients that does not require reassessment of: (1) whether any existing or expired contracts are or
contain leases, (2) lease classification and (3) initial direct costs. In addition, the Company has elected other available practical expedients to not separate lease and
non-lease components, which consist principally of common area maintenance charges, for all classes of underlying assets and to exclude leases with an initial
term of 12 months or less.
As the implicit rate is not readily determinable for the Company's lease agreement, the Company uses an estimated incremental borrowing rate to
determine the initial present value of lease payments. This discount rate for the lease approximates SVB's prime rate.
Supplemental cash flow information includes operating cash flows related to operating leases. For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, the
Company had approximately $294,000 and $264,000, respectively, in operating cash flows related to operating leases.

Legal Proceedings
We are subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. We do not believe that the outcome of those matters will have
a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, operating results or cash flows. However, there can be no assurance such legal proceedings will not
have a material impact.
We are not aware of any material claims outstanding or pending against Intrusion Inc. at December 31, 2019.
5. Employee Benefit Plan
Employee 401(k) Plan
We have a plan known as the Intrusion Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan (the “Plan”) to provide retirement and incidental benefits for our employees. The Plan
covers substantially all employees who meet minimum age and service requirements. As allowed under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code, the Plan
provides tax deferred salary deductions for eligible employees.
Employees may contribute from 1% to 25% of their annual compensation to the Plan, limited to a maximum amount as set by the Internal Revenue
Service. Participants who are over the age of 50 may contribute an additional amount of their salary per year, as defined annually by the Internal Revenue Service.
We match employee contributions at the rate of $0.25 per each $1.00 of contribution on the first 4% of compensation. Matching contributions to the Plan were
approximately $32,000 and $30,000, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.
6. Borrowings from Officer
On February 8, 2018, the Company entered into an unsecured revolving promissory note to borrow up to $3,700,000 from G. Ward Paxton, the
Company’s former Chief Executive Officer (the “CEO Note”). Under the terms of the CEO Note, the Company had the ability to borrow, repay and reborrow on
the loan as needed up to an outstanding principal balance due of $3,700,000 at any given time through March 2020.
On February 7, 2019, the Company amended the unsecured revolving promissory note to borrow up to $2,700,000 from G. Ward Paxton, the Company’s
former Chief Executive Officer. Amounts borrowed under the CEO Note accrued interest at a floating rate per annum equal to Silicon Valley Bank’s (“SVB”)
prime rate plus 1%. Under the terms of the note, the Company had the ability to borrow, repay and reborrow on the loan as needed up to an outstanding principal
balance due of $2,700,000 at any given time through March 2021. We reduced our borrowing under this note to zero as of May 2019
As of October 24, 2019, G. Ward Paxton passed away, terminating the CEO Note with the result that future borrowings thereunder will no longer be
available to the Company. Our management will be assessing whether to replace this borrowing base and assessing what terms may be available to the Company,
including whether any such terms are acceptable to the Company, if at all.

7. Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting
purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of our deferred tax assets (liabilities) as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 are as
follows (in thousands):
Net operating loss carryforwards
Net operating loss carryforwards of foreign subsidiaries
Depreciation expense
Stock-based compensation expense

Deferred tax assets are required to be reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will
not be realized. Realization of the future benefits related to the deferred tax assets is dependent on many factors, including the Company’s ability to generate
taxable income within the near to medium term. Management has considered these factors in determining the valuation allowance for 2019 and 2018.
The differences between the provision for income taxes and income taxes computed using the federal statutory rate for the years ended December 31,

At December 31, 2019, we had federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $81.7 million for income tax purposes that begin to expire in
2022 and are subject to the ownership change limitations under Internal Revenue Code Section 382.
8. Stock Options
At December 31, 2019, we had two stock-based compensation plans, which are described below. These plans were developed to retain and attract key
employees and directors.
On March 17, 2005, the Board approved the 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2005 Plan”), which was approved by the stockholders on June 14, 2005. The
2005 Plan provided for the issuance of up to 750,000 shares of common stock upon exercise of options granted pursuant to the 2005 Plan. On May 30, 2007, the
stockholders approved an Amendment to the 2005 Plan that increased this amount by 750,000 for a total of 1,500,000 shares of common stock that may be issued
upon the exercise of options granted pursuant to the 2005 Plan. On May 29, 2008 and May 21, 2009, the stockholders approved an increase of 500,000 shares,
respectively, of common stock that may be issued pursuant to the 2005 Plan for a total of 2,500,000 shares. On May 20, 2010, the stockholders approved an
additional increase of 500,000 shares of common stock that may be issued pursuant to the 2005 Plan for a total of 3,000,000 shares. On May 19, 2011, the
stockholders approved an additional increase of 400,000 shares of common stock that may be issued pursuant to the 2005 Plan for a total of 3,400,000 shares.
Finally, on May 17, 2012, the stockholders approved an additional increase of 300,000 shares of common stock that may be issued pursuant to the 2005 Plan for a
total of 3,700,000 shares. At December 31, 2019, 1,563,235 had been exercised and options to purchase a total of 824,100 shares of common stock were
outstanding. A total of 3,892,000 options had been granted under the 2005 Plan, of which 1,504,665 have been cancelled. The 2005 Plan expired on June 14, 2015,
and no shares remain for grant.
On March 19, 2015, the Board approved the 2015 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2015 Plan”), which was approved by the stockholders on May 14, 2015. The
2015 Plan serves as a replacement for the 2005 Plan which expired by its terms on June 14, 2015. The approval of the 2015 Plan had no effect on the 2005 Plan or
any options granted pursuant to the plan. All options will continue with their existing terms and will be subject to the 2005 Plan. Further, the Company will not be
able to re-issue any option which is cancelled or terminated under the 2005 Plan. The 2015 Plan provided for the issuance of up to 600,000 shares of common stock
upon exercise of options granted pursuant to the 2015 Plan.
F-12
The 2015 Plan consists of three separate equity incentive programs: the Discretionary Option Grant Program; the Stock Issuance Program; and the
Automatic Option Grant Program for non-employee Board members. Officers and employees, non-employee Board members and independent contractors are
eligible to participate in the Discretionary Option Grant and Stock Issuance Programs. Participation in the Automatic Option Grant Program is limited to non-
employee members of the Board. Each non-employee Board member will receive an option grant for 10,000 shares of common stock upon initial election or
appointment to the Board, provided that such individual has not previously been employed by the Company in the preceding three (3) months. In addition, on the
date of each annual stockholders meeting, each Board member will automatically be granted an option to purchase 8,000 shares of common stock, provided he or
she has served as a non-employee Board member for at least three months. At December 31, 2019, no options had been exercised and options to purchase a total of
151,000 shares of common stock were outstanding. A total of 154,000 options had been granted under the 2015 Plan, 3,000 shares have been cancelled, and
options for 449,000 shares remained available for future grant. No shares have been issued pursuant to the Stock Issuance Program.
Common shares reserved for future issuance, including conversions of preferred stock, outstanding options and options available for future grant under all
of the stock option plans totaled 2,491,543 shares at December 31, 2019 as follows, in thousands:

The Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors determines for all employee options, the term of each option, option exercise price within limits
set forth in the plans, number of shares for which each option is granted and the rate at which each option is exercisable (generally ratably over one, three or five
years from grant date). However, the exercise price of any incentive stock option may not be less than the fair market value of the shares on the date granted (or
less than 110% of the fair market value in the case of optionees holding more than 10% of our voting stock of the Company), and the term cannot exceed ten years
(five years for incentive stock options granted to holders of more than 10% of our voting stock).

9. Preferred Stock
5% Preferred Stock
On March 25, 2004, we completed a $5.0 million private placement of our 5% convertible preferred stock and warrants. In the private placement, we sold

(2) any accrued but unpaid dividends on the Series 2 5% preferred stock plus (3) all liquidated damages or other amounts payable to the holders of Series 2 5%

Dividends Payable
During the year ended December 31, 2019, we accrued $50,000 in dividends to the holders of our 5% Preferred Stock, $57,000 in dividends to the holders
of our Series 2 5% Preferred Stock and $32,000 in dividends to the holders of our Series 3 5% Preferred Stock. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, we had
$20,000 and $594,000 in accrued and unpaid dividends included in other current liabilities. Delaware law provides that we may only pay dividends out of our
capital surplus or, if no surplus is available, out of our net profits for the fiscal year the dividend is declared and/or the preceding fiscal year. This has been in effect
since December 31, 2014. However, in light of our net profits for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, we are able to and have paid these past due
dividends as of the date of this Annual Report. However, dividends continue to accrue on all our outstanding shares of preferred stock, regardless of whether we
are legally able to pay them, and we cannot assure you that our net assets will exceed our stated capital or that we will have sufficient net profits in order to pay
these dividends as they continue to accrue in the future. If we are unable to pay dividends on our preferred stock, we will be required to accrue an additional late
fee penalty of 18% per annum on the unpaid dividends for the Series 2 Preferred Stock and Series 3 Preferred Stock.

10. Concentrations
Our operations are concentrated in one area—security software/entity identification. Sales to the U.S. Government through direct and indirect channels
totaled 87.4% of total revenues for 2019 and 83.9% of total revenues for 2018. During 2019 approximately 68.1% of total revenues were attributable to three
government customers. During 2018 approximately 61.4% of total revenues are attributable to four government customers. Three individual government customers
at December 31, 2019 and four at December 31, 2018 exceeded 10% of total accounts receivable balance at respective year ends, comprising 78.8% and 48.9% of
the respective total accounts receivable balance. During 2019 approximately 10.4% of total revenues were attributable to one commercial customer, and during
2018, 14.1% of total revenues were attributable to one commercial customer. Only one individual commercial customer at December 31, 2019 exceeded 10% of
total accounts receivable balance, and only one at December 31, 2018. Our similar product and service offerings are not viewed as individual segments, as our
management analyzes the business as a whole and expenses are not allocated to each product offering.
11. Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities
Contract assets represent contract billings for sales per contracts with customers and are classified as current. Our contract assets include our accounts
receivables. For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company had contract assets balance of $1,566,000, a decrease of $401,000 from the prior year due to
cash receipts exceeding new contract assets. For the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company had contract assets balance of $1,967,000.
Contract liabilities consist of cash payments in advance of the Company satisfying performance obligations and recognizing revenue. The Company
currently classifies deferred revenue as a contract liablility. For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company had contract liabilities balance of $516,000. For
the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company had contract liabilities balance of $1,004,000.
12. Coronavirus Outbreak in the United States
Uncertainties surrounding the effects of the coronavirus, particularly potential diversion of time and resources of federal government entities
which make up a significant concentration of our customer base, could cause a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial results. The extent
of the impact of COVID-19 on our operational and financial performance will depend on certain developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak,
impact on our customers, employees and vendors all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. A material disruption in our workplace as a result of the
coronavirus could affect our ability to carry on our business operations in the ordinary course and may require additional cost and effort should our employees not
be able to be physically on-premises.
