NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(In thousands, except for share and per share data)

Note 1. Business, Basis of Presentation and Liquidity

Overview

XWELL is a global wellness company operating multiple brands and focused on bringing restorative, regenerative and reinvigorating products and services to travelers. XWELL currently has four reportable operating segments: XpresSpa®, XpresTest®, Naples Wax Center and Treat™.

On October 25, 2022, the Company changed its name to XWELL, Inc. (“XWELL” or the “Company”) from XpresSpa Group, Inc. The Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share, which had previously been listed under the trading symbol “XSPA” on the Nasdaq Capital Market, now trades under the trading symbol “XWEL”. The Company filed an amended and restated certificate of incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State on October 24, 2022 (the “Amended and Restated Certificate”) reflecting the name change. Rebranding to XWELL aligned the Company’s corporate strategy to build a pure-play wellness services company, in both the airport and off-airport marketplaces.

XpresSpa

XWELL’s subsidiary, XpresSpa Holdings, LLC (“XpresSpa”) has been a global airport retailer of spa services through its XpresSpa spa locations, offering travelers premium spa services, including massage, nail and skin care, as well as spa and travel products.

As of March 31, 2024, there were 21 domestic XpresSpa locations in total, 19 Company-owned locations and two franchises. The Company also had 11 international locations operating as of March 31, 2024, including two XpresSpa locations in Dubai International Airport in the United Arab Emirates, one XpresSpa location in Zayad International Airport in Abu Dhabi, UAE, three XpresSpa locations in Schiphol Amsterdam Airport in the Netherlands and five XpresSpa locations in the Istanbul Airport in Turkey.

XpresTest

The Company, in partnership with certain COVID-19 testing partners, successfully launched its XpresCheck Wellness Centers, in June of 2020, through its XpresTest, Inc. subsidiary (“XpresTest”), which offered COVID-19 and other medical diagnostic testing services to the traveling public, as well as airline, airport and concessionaire employees, and TSA and U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents during the pandemic. During 2022 and 2023, as countries continued to relax their testing requirements resulting in rapid decline of testing volumes at the Company’s XpresCheck locations, the Company closed XpresCheck Wellness Centers. As of December 31, 2023, we have closed all XpresCheck locations.

XWELL’s subsidiary, XpresTest, Inc (“XpresTest”) began conducting bio surveillance monitoring with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in collaboration with Concentric by Ginkgo BioWorks in 2021. The program was extended in January 2022 and renewed in August of 2022 and 2023. In March 2024, the program funding and scope were expanded.

HyperPointe

XWELL’s subsidiary, gcg Connect, LLC, operating as HyperPointe, provides direct to business marketing support across a number of health and health-related channels.  From the creation of marketing campaigns for the pharmaceutical industry, to learning management systems to website and health related content creation, HyperPointe is a complementary service provider to XWELL’s health-focused brands as well as providing the majority of services to the external community.

For reporting purposes, the former HyperPointe segment has been consolidated into the XpresTest segment.

8

Treat

Treat, which is operating through XWELL’s subsidiary Treat, Inc. (“Treat”) is a wellness brand that provides access to wellness services for travelers at on-site centers (currently located in JFK International Airport). In April 2024, the decision was made to close the location in the Salt Lake City International Airport.

Treat offers a full retail product offering and a suite of wellness and spa services. Travelers can purchase time blocks to use our wellness rooms to engage in interactive services like self-guided yoga, meditation and low impact weight exercises or to relax and unplug from the hectic pace of the airport and renew themselves before or after their trip.

Naples Wax Center

XWELL’s subsidiary Naples Wax Center, LLC, which was acquired on September 12, 2023, for a purchase price of $1,624 operates three high-performing locations with core products and service offerings from face and body waxing to a range of skincare and cosmetic products. The acquisition of Naples Wax Center is intended to enable the Company to move beyond its airport client base with a business that can be adapted to a larger wellness platform while also growing its retail footprint to serve long-term financial goals.

TreatStudios

In Q4 of 2023, the Company began plans to open its first TreatStudios location in Jacksonville, Florida in 2024.  TreatStudios is an out-of-airport concept providing leased space to established wellness service providers.  Revenue will be derived from both lease payments received from the wellness practitioners and the sale of retail at the wellness center.

The Company believes that these strategic imperatives will be accomplished through development of an infrastructure specifically focused on enabling scalable and efficient growth.

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Article 8-03 of Regulation S-X, and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, as amended. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 was derived from the audited annual financial statements but does not include all information required by GAAP for annual financial statements. The financial statements include the accounts of the Company, all entities that are wholly owned by the Company, and all entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation for the periods presented have been reflected by the Company. Such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year or for any other interim period. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reverse Stock Split

On September 28, 2023, the Company effected a 1-for-20 reverse stock split, (the “Reverse Stock Split”) whereby every twenty shares of its Common Stock were reduced to one share of its Common Stock and the price per share of its Common Stock was multiplied by 20. All references to shares and per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split.

9

Liquidity and Financial Condition

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $4,317 (excluding restricted cash), $14,784 in marketable securities, and total current assets of $24,456. The Company’s total current liabilities balance, which includes accounts payable, deferred revenue, accrued expenses, and operating lease liabilities was $9,187 as of March 31, 2024 and $9,330 as of December 31, 2023. The working capital surplus was $15,269 as of March 31, 2024, compared to a working capital surplus of $17,236 as of December 31, 2023.

The Company significantly reduced operating and overhead expenses in the second half of 2023, while it continues to focus on returning to overall profitability.

The Company has taken actions to improve its overall cash position, right sizing its corporate structure and streamlining its operations. The Company is pursuing strategic partnerships that the Company expects will further strengthen the long-term profitability of the business.

Note 2. Accounting and Reporting Policies

Use of estimates

The preparation of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the periods presented. Actual results may differ from such estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the Company’s long-lived assets, intangibles assets, the useful lives of the Company’s intangible assets, the valuation of stock-based compensation, deferred tax assets and liabilities, income tax uncertainties, and other contingencies.

Revenue Recognition Policy

XpresSpa, Treat and Naples Wax Center

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of products and services when the services are rendered at XpresSpa, Treat, and Naples Wax Centers locations and from the sale of products at the time products are purchased at the Company’s stores or online usually by credit card, net of discounts and applicable sales taxes. Accordingly, the Company recognizes revenue for the Company’s single performance obligation related to both in-store and online sales at the point at which the service has been performed or the control of the merchandise has passed to the customer.

XpresTest

During the third quarter of 2022, XpresTest, in partnership with Ginkgo BioWorks in continuation of their support to the CDC’s traveler-based SARS-CoV-2 genomic surveillance program was awarded a new contract. The partnership is expected to support public health and biosecurity services totaling approximately $16,000, with an overall potential to exceed $61,000 based on CDC program options and public health priorities. As COVID-19 sub-variants and other biological threats continue to emerge, the partners plan to expand the program footprint and incorporate innovative modalities and offerings, such as monitoring of wastewater from aircraft lavatories. The current contract with Ginkgo BioWorks related to the above partnership contains fixed pricing for which the Company is entitled to $10,674 for the sample collection (passenger and aircraft wastewater) and $370 for the traveler enrollment initiatives, which represents the amount of consideration that we are entitled. The Company recognizes revenue over time for both sample collection performance obligations, using the input method based on time elapsed to measure progress towards satisfying each of the performance obligations. We recognized the revenue for the traveler enrollment initiative performance obligation in the second quarter of 2023. The Company recognizes revenue ratably (straight line basis) over the term of the contract (one year). The Company recorded $3,306 and $1,670, in revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, related to sample collection performance obligations because the Company’s efforts towards satisfying each of the performance obligations are expended evenly throughout the period of performance.

HyperPointe

The Company’s HyperPointe business provides a broad range of service and support options for HyperPointe’s customers, including technical support services and advanced services. Technical support services represent the majority of these offerings which are distinct performance obligations that are satisfied over time with revenue recognized ratably over the contract term. Advanced services are distinct performance obligations that are satisfied over time with revenue recognized as services are delivered.  Revenues billed in advance are treated as deferred revenue, which was $87 and $72 as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

The Company excludes all sales taxes assessed to our customers from revenue. Sales taxes assessed on revenues are included in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets until remitted to state agencies.

11

Gift cards, customer rewards and prepaid packages

XWELL offers no-fee, non-expiring gift cards to its customers. No revenue is recognized upon the issuance of a gift card and a liability is established for the gift card’s cash value. The liability is relieved, and revenue is recognized upon redemption by the customer. As the gift cards have no expiration date, there is no provision for the reduction in the value of unused card balances.

In addition, XWELL maintains a rewards program in which customers earn loyalty points, which can be redeemed for future services. Loyalty points are rewarded upon joining the loyalty program, for customer birthdays, and based upon customer spending. When a customer redeems loyalty points, the Company recognizes revenue for the redeemed cash value and reduces the related loyalty program liability. In 2023 the Company adopted a formal expiration policy whereby any loyalty members with inactivity for an 18-month period will forfeit any unused loyalty rewards.

The costs associated with gift cards and reward points are accrued as the rewards are earned by the cardholder and are included in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets until used.

Naples Wax Center offers prepaid wax packages that are either unlimited for one year or a set number of services. When the packages are purchased, the sales are recorded as deferred revenue. As services related to prepaid packages are used, revenue is recognized as income. The deferred revenue as of March 31, 2024 was $794 and for the year ended December 31, 2023 deferred revenue was $778.

Translation into United States dollars

The Company conducts certain transactions in foreign currencies, which are recorded at the exchange rate as of the transaction date. All exchange gains and losses occurring from the remeasurement of monetary balance sheet items denominated in non-dollar currencies are deemed non-operating income in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.  During the three months ended March 2024, the Company recorded $166 in exchange losses occurring from the remeasurement of monetary balance sheet items denominated in non-dollar currencies. During the three months ended March 2023, the Company recorded $85 in exchange gain.

Accounts of the foreign subsidiaries of XpresSpa are translated into United States dollars. Assets and liabilities have been translated primarily at period end exchange rates and revenues and expenses have been translated at average monthly rates for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The translation adjustments arising from the use of different exchange rates are included as foreign currency translation within the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) and condensed consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity.

Business Combinations

The Company uses the provisions of ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”) in the accounting for acquisitions of businesses. ASC 805 requires the Company to use the acquisition method of accounting by recognizing the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquired business, measured at their acquisition date fair values. Goodwill as of the acquisition date is measured as the excess of consideration transferred over the aforementioned amounts.

While the Company uses its best estimates and assumptions to accurately apply preliminary values to assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, these estimates are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. As a result, during the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date, the Company may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period or final determination of the values of the assets acquired or liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, any subsequent adjustments are recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Accounting for business combinations requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially at the acquisition date, including estimates for intangible assets. Although the Company believes the assumptions and estimates that have been made are reasonable and appropriate, they are based in part on historical experience and

12

information obtained from the acquired companies and are inherently uncertain. Estimates in valuing certain of the intangible assets the Company has acquired include future expected cash flows, and discount rates.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets include customer relationships, trade names, and technology, which were primarily acquired as part of the acquisition of XpresSpa in December 2016, HyperPointe in 2022 and Naples Wax Center in 2023 and were recorded based on the estimated fair value in purchase price allocation. In addition, intangible assets include software and website development costs that were capitalized as part of the Company’s development of a mobile application and website for the Treat brand. The Company accounts for these costs in accordance with ASC 350-40, Internal-Use Software. The intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives, which are periodically evaluated for reasonableness.

The Company’s intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The fair value is then compared to the carrying value and an impairment charge is recognized by the amount in which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset. In assessing the recoverability of the Company’s intangible assets, the Company must make estimates and assumptions regarding future cash flows and other factors to determine the fair value of the respective assets. These estimates and assumptions could have a significant impact on whether an impairment charge is recognized and the magnitude of any such charge. Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant information.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the cost of a business acquisition in excess of the fair value of the net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized and is reviewed for impairment annually, or more frequently if facts and circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. If it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the company performs a quantitative test to identify and measure the amount of goodwill impairment loss. The Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount. If the carrying amount exceeds fair value, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered impaired, and that excess is recognized as a goodwill impairment loss. During the quarter ended March 31, 2024, the Company did not record any goodwill impairment loss.

Reclassification

Certain balances in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2023 have been reclassified to conform to the presentation in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily the presentation of revenue, general and administrative expense, foreign currency exchange gain, and the realized and unrealized gain on investments and other operating expenses. The above separation affected revenue classifications, general and administrative expenses, foreign currency exchange gain, and the realized and unrealized gain on investments and other operating expenses in the comparative 2023 financial statements. Such reclassifications did not have a material impact on the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets are tested for impairment at the lowest level at which there are identifiable operating cash flows. The Company’s long-lived assets consist primarily of leasehold improvements and right to use lease assets for each of its locations (considered the asset group). The Company reviews its long-lived assets for recoverability yearly or sooner if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. If indicators are present, the Company performs a recoverability test by comparing the sum of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows attributable to the asset group in question to its carrying amount. An impairment loss is recognized if it is determined that the long-lived asset group is not recoverable and is calculated based on the excess of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset group over the long-lived asset group’s fair value. The Company estimates the fair value of long-lived assets using present value income approach. Future cash flows are calculated based on forecasts over the estimated remaining useful life of the asset group, which for each of the Company’s locations, is the remaining term of the operating lease.

13

The estimates used to calculate future cash flows are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgments and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimated fair value of each asset group. The Company will calculate the future cash flow using what it believes to be the most predictable of several scenarios. Typically, the changes in assumptions run under different business scenarios would not result in a material change in the assessment of the potential impairment or the impairment amount of a locations long-lived asset group. But if these estimates or related assumptions were to change materially, the Company may be required to record an impairment charge.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024 the Company recorded impairment of  long-lived assets of $652 compared with $0 impairment of long-lived assets in March 2023.

On September 12, 2023, the Company acquired all of the equity interests in Naples Wax, LLC, d/b/a Naples Wax Centers, a Florida limited liability company (“Naples Wax”), for an aggregate purchase price of $1,624, of which $1,574 was paid in cash at closing. The remaining $50 was held for six months as a holdback to cover any potential indemnification claims. $14 was paid in the quarter ended March 31, 2024. The remaining $36 was offset by operating expenses.

The Company applies the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”) in the accounting for acquisitions of businesses. ASC 805 requires the Company to use the acquisition method of accounting by recognizing the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquired business, measured at their acquisition date fair values. Goodwill as of the acquisition date is measured as the excess of consideration transferred over the aforementioned amounts.

While the company uses its best estimates and assumptions to accurately apply preliminary values to assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, these estimates are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. As a result, during the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date, the Company may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill. As of March 31, 2024, no impairment of the Company’s goodwill was required. The purchase accounting for the acquisition remains incomplete as management continues to gather and evaluate information about circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period or final determination of the values of the assets acquired or liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, any subsequent adjustments are recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Accounting for business combinations requires management to make estimates and assumptions, especially at the acquisition date, including estimates for intangible assets. Although the Company believes the assumptions and estimates that have been made are reasonable and appropriate, they are based in part on historical experience and information obtained from the acquired companies and are inherently uncertain. Estimates in valuing certain of the intangible assets the Company has acquired include future expected cash flows, and discount rates.

For income tax purposes, this acquisition of 100% of the units is treated as an asset acquisition. As a result of the acquisition of Naples Wax, the company generated tax deductible goodwill of $1,371.

Note 9. Leases

The Company leases spa and clinic locations at various domestic and international airports. Additionally, the Company leases its corporate office in New York City and other off airport locations in various US cities. Certain leases entered into by the Company are accounted for in accordance with ASC 842. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at

17

inception and if it qualifies under ASC 842. The Company’s lease arrangements generally contain fixed payments throughout the term of the lease and most also contain a variable component to determine the lease obligation where a certain percentage of sales is used to calculate the lease payments. The Company enters into leases that expire, are amended and extended, or are extended on a month-to-month basis. Leases are not included in the calculation of the total lease liability and the right of use asset when they are month-to-month.

All qualifying leases held by the Company are classified as operating leases. Operating lease assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent its obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The Company records its operating lease assets and liabilities based on required guaranteed payments under each lease agreement. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate, which approximates the rate at which the Company can borrow funds on a secured basis, using the information available at commencement date of the lease in determining the present value of guaranteed lease payments. The interest rate implicit in the lease is generally not determinable in transactions where a company is the lessee.

The Company reviews all of its existing lease agreements to determine whether there were any modifications to lease agreements and to assess if any agreements should be accounted for pursuant to the guidance in ASC 842.

The following is a summary of the activity in the Company’s current and long-term operating lease liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023:

Note 11. Stockholders’ Equity

2023 Reverse Stock Split

On September 28, 2023, we effected the “Reverse Stock Split”, whereby every twenty shares of our common stock were reduced to one share of our common stock and the price per share of our common stock was multiplied by 20. All references to shares and per share amounts, including shares of common stock underlying stock options, warrants, and applicable exercise prices, have been retroactively adjusted for all periods presented herein to give effect to the Reverse Stock Split as required in accordance with United States of America generally accepted accounting principles.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company has a stock-based compensation plan available to grant stock options and RSUs to the Company’s directors, employees and consultants.

In September 2020, the Board of Directors approved a new stock-based compensation plan available to grant stock options, restricted stock and Restricted Stock Units (“RSU’s”) aggregating to 250,000 shares of Common Stock, to the Company’s directors, employees and consultants. Shareholder approval of the plan was subsequently obtained on October 28, 2020. On October 4, 2022, shareholders approved the amendment to the Company’s 2020 Equity Incentive Plan to increase the number of shares authorized for issuance under the Plan by 375,000 shares of Common Stock to an aggregate of 625,000 shares. Under the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”), a maximum of 141,120 shares of Common Stock remained available for issuance as of March 31, 2024.  

The Company’s previous Employee, Director and Consultant Equity Incentive Plan (the “2012 Plan”) was terminated upon receipt of shareholder approval of the 2020 Plan.  Awards granted under the 2012 Plan remain in effect pursuant to their terms. Generally, stock options are granted with exercise prices equal to the fair market value on the date of grant, vest in four equal quarterly installments, and expire 10 years from the date of grant. RSU’s granted generally vest over a period of one year.

In September 2020, XpresTest created a stock-based compensation plan available to grant stock options, restricted stock and RSU’s to the XpresTest’s directors, employees and consultants. Under the XpresTest 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “XpresTest Plan”), a maximum of 200 shares of XpresTest common stock may be awarded, which would represent 20% of the total number of shares of common stock of XpresTest as of March 31, 2024. Certain named executive officers, consultants, and directors of the Company are eligible to participate in the XpresTest Plan. The XpresTest Plan RSAs vest upon satisfaction of certain service and performance-based conditions. The fair value of the XpresTest Plan RSAs is determined based on the weighted average of (i) Fair Value of XpresTest under the Indirect Valuation Method developing assumptions for XpresSpa Net Market Cap and XpresSpa standalone Fair Value, and (ii) Direct Valuation Method developing assumptions for XpresTest Representative Forecasted Revenue for 2021 and Peer companies Revenue’s Multiples.

As of March 31, 2024 and 2023, there was $74 and $167 respectively of unrecognized stock-based compensation related to the XpresTest Plan.

19

The fair value of stock options is estimated as of the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton (“Black-Scholes”) option-pricing model. The Company uses the simplified method to estimate the expected term of options due to insufficient history and high turnover in the past. 

The following variables were used as inputs in the model:

Note 12. Income Taxes

The Company’s provision for income taxes consists of federal, state, local, and foreign taxes in amounts necessary to align the Company’s year-to-date provision for income taxes with the effective tax rate that the Company expects to achieve for the full year. Each quarter, the Company updates its estimate of the annual effective tax rate and records cumulative adjustments as deemed necessary. The income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2024, reflects an estimated global annual effective tax rate of approximately 0% from continuing operations.

As of March 31, 2024, deferred tax assets generated from the Company’s U.S. activities were offset by a valuation allowance because realization depends on generating future taxable income, which, in the Company’s estimation, is not more likely than not to be generated before such net operating loss carryforwards expire. Net operating loss carryforwards generated after December 31, 2017 do not expire. The Company expects its effective tax rate for its current fiscal year to be significantly lower than the statutory rate as a result of a full valuation allowance; therefore, any loss before income taxes does not generate a corresponding income tax benefit. Income tax expense/(benefit) for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $0 which was attributed to state taxing jurisdictions in which a measure of income is utilized to determine a tax liability. The final annual tax rate cannot be determined until the end of the fiscal year; therefore, the actual tax rate could differ from current estimates.

20

Note 13. Commitments and Contingencies

Certain of the Company’s outstanding legal matters include speculative claims for substantial or indeterminate amounts of damages. The Company regularly evaluates developments in its legal matters that could affect the amount of any potential liability and adjusts as appropriate. A significant judgment is required to determine both the likelihood of there being any potential liability and the estimated amount of a loss related to the Company’s legal matters.

With respect to the Company’s outstanding legal matters, based on its current knowledge, the Company’s management believes that the amount or range of a potential loss will not, either individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on its business, consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, the outcome of such legal matters is inherently unpredictable and subject to significant uncertainties. The Company evaluated the outstanding legal matters and assessed the probability and likelihood of the occurrence of liability. Based on management’s estimates, the Company has recorded accruals of $424 and $449 as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, which is included in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company expenses legal fees in the period in which they are incurred.

OTG Management PHL B v. XpresSpa Philadelphia Terminal B et al.

On May 9, 2022, a lawsuit was filed in the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas by OTG Management at Philadelphia International Airport, claiming that XWELL improperly backed out of its sublease for space at Terminal B and now owes between $864 and $2,250 in accelerated rent for the 12-year contract.  They claim that by refusing to complete the project, failing to commence and maintain operations, refusing to pay rent and improperly purporting to terminate the lease (among other acts and omissions), XWELL breached the lease. On January 9, 2024, the court placed the matter on Civil Suspense.

In addition to those matters specifically set forth herein, the Company and its subsidiaries are involved in various other claims and legal actions that arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these actions will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, liquidity, or capital resources. However, a significant increase in the number of these claims, or one or more successful claims under which the Company incurs greater liabilities than the Company currently anticipates, could materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

In the event that an action is brought against the Company or one of its subsidiaries, the Company will investigate the allegation and vigorously defend itself.

Leases

XWELL is contingently liable to a surety company under certain general indemnity agreements required by various airports relating to its lease agreements. XWELL agrees to indemnify the surety for any payments made on contracts of suretyship, guaranty, or indemnity. The Company believes that all contingent liabilities will be satisfied by its performance under the specified lease agreements.

21

Note 14. Segment Information

As a result of the Company’s transition to a pure-play wellness services company, the Company currently has four reportable operating segments: XpresSpa, XpresTest, Naples Wax Center, and Treat. The Company analyzes the results of the Company’s business through the four reportable segments. The XpresSpa segment provides travelers premium spa services, including massage, nail and skin care, as well as spa and travel products. The XpresTest segment provided diagnostic COVID-19 tests at XpresCheck Wellness Centers in airports, to airport employees and to the traveling public but has transitioned to the CDC’s bio-surveillance program. XpresTest’s HyperPointe business provides a broad range of service and support options for its customers, including technical support services and advanced services. The Treat segment is a wellness brand that provides access to wellness services for travelers at on-site centers. The Naples Wax Center segment operates three high-performing locations with core products and service offerings from face and body waxing to a range of skincare and cosmetic products. The Treat segment is a wellness brand that provides access to wellness services for travelers at on-site centers.

The chief operating decision maker evaluates the operating results and performance of the Company’s segments through operating income. Expenses that can be specifically identified with a segment have been included as deductions in determining operating income. Any remaining expenses and other charges are included in Corporate and Other.

Overview

XWELL is a global wellness company operating multiple brands and focused on bringing restorative, regenerative and reinvigorating products and services to travelers. XWELL currently has four reportable operating segments: XpresSpa®, XpresTest®, Naples Wax Center and Treat™.

On October 25, 2022, we changed our name to XWELL, Inc. (“XWELL” or the “Company”) from XpresSpa Group, Inc. Our common stock, par value $0.01 per share, which had previously been listed under the trading symbol “XSPA” on the Nasdaq Capital Market, now trades under the trading symbol “XWEL”.  We filed an amended and restated certificate of incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State on October 24, 2022 (the “Amended and Restated Certificate”) reflecting the name change. Rebranding to XWELL aligned our corporate strategy to build a pure-play wellness services company, in both the airport and off airport marketplaces.

Although we recognize four segments of business, we believe there is opportunity to leverage a segment of our products and services across the Company’s platform of brands. Additionally, we are expanding our retail strategy, not only adding more products for sale but aligning those products more efficiently to our service offerings. This product strategy includes, for example, adding muscle relaxation patches to a neck or back massage to continue treatment after the delivery of the service.

We also plan to build our capability for delivering health and wellness services outside of the airport. We believe operating outside of the airport complements our offering and represents the fastest way to scale the XWELL family of brands.

We will be looking to further expand internationally. With international travel slowly returning to pre-pandemic levels, we continue to be opportunistic in our approach, by taking advantage of the current market to growth. We believe a strategy for international expansion further advances our ability to expand our other brands including bio surveillance outside of the US.

24

XpresSpa

XWELL’s subsidiary, XpresSpa Holdings, LLC (“XpresSpa”) has been a global airport retailer of spa services through our XpresSpa spa locations, offering travelers premium spa services, including massage, nail and skin care, as well as spa and travel products.

As of March 31, 2024, there were 21 domestic XpresSpa locations in total, 19 Company-owned locations and two franchises. We also had 11 international locations operating as of March 31, 2024, including two XpresSpa locations in Dubai International Airport in the United Arab Emirates, one XpresSpa location in Zayad International Airport in Abu Dhabi, UAE, three XpresSpa locations in Schiphol Amsterdam Airport in the Netherlands and five XpresSpa locations in the Istanbul Airport in Turkey.

XpresTest

We, in partnership with certain COVID-19 testing partners, successfully launched its XpresCheck Wellness Centers, in June of 2020, through our XpresTest, Inc. subsidiary (“XpresTest”), which offered COVID-19 and other medical diagnostic testing services to the traveling public, as well as airline, airport and concessionaire employees, and TSA and U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents during the pandemic. During 2022 and 2023, as countries continued to relax their testing requirements resulting in rapid decline of testing volumes at the Company’s XpresCheck locations, the Company closed XpresCheck Wellness Centers. As of December 31, 2023, we have closed all XpresCheck locations.

XpresTest began conducting bio surveillance monitoring with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in collaboration with Concentric by Ginkgo BioWorks in 2021 and on January 31, 2022, we announced the extension of our initial program, bringing the total contract to $5,537. As of August 2022, the program was renewed in partnership with Ginkgo BioWorks. A new two-year contract was initiated which represents approximately $7,330 in revenue (for the first year) for the XpresTest segment.

The program was renewed in August 2023 through a new one-year contract. The revenue to XpresTest from such one-year extension totaled approximately $7,044. In March 2024, the program funding and scope were expanded, a revenue increase of $4,000, to an estimated $11,044 in revenue for XpresTest with new collection locations at U.S. international airports in Miami (MIA) and Chicago (ORD) and the roll out of multi-pathogen testing across the program.

HyperPointe

XWELL’s subsidiary, gcg Connect, LLC, operating as HyperPointe, provides direct to business marketing support across a number of health and health-related channels.  From the creation of marketing campaigns for the pharmaceutical industry, to learning management systems to website and health related content creation, HyperPointe is a complementary service provider to our health-focused brands as well as providing the majority of services to the external community.

For reporting purposes, HyperPointe has been consolidated into the XpresTest segment.

Treat

Treat, which is operating through our subsidiary Treat, Inc. (“Treat”) is a wellness brand that provides access to wellness services for travelers at on-site centers (currently located in JFK International Airport). In April 2024, the decision was made to close the location in the Salt Lake City International Airport.

Treat offers a full retail product offering and a suite of wellness and spa services. Travelers can purchase time blocks to use our wellness rooms to engage in interactive services like self-guided yoga, meditation, and low impact weight exercises or to relax and unplug from the hectic pace of the airport and renew themselves before or after their trip.

25

Naples Wax Center

On September 12, 2023, we acquired Naples Wax, LLC, a group of upscale hair removal boutiques in Florida, for a purchase price of $1,624. Aiming to provide a memorable customer experience, Naples Wax Center operates three high-performing locations with core products and service offerings from face and body waxing to a range of skincare and cosmetic products. The acquisition of Naples Wax Center is intended to enable us to move beyond our airport client base with a business that can be adapted to a larger wellness platform while also growing our retail footprint to serve our long-term financial goals.

TreatStudios

Further, in Q4 of 2023, the Company began plans to open its first TreatStudios location in Jacksonville, Florida in 2024.  TreatStudios is an out-of-airport concept providing leased space to established wellness service providers.  Revenue will be derived from both lease payments received from the wellness practitioners and the sale of retail at the wellness center.

We believe that these strategic imperatives will be accomplished through development of an infrastructure specifically focused on enabling scalable and efficient growth.

2023 Reverse Stock Split

On September 28, 2023, we effected a 1-for-20 reverse stock split, whereby every twenty shares of our common stock were reduced to one share of our common stock and the price per share of our common stock was multiplied by 20. All references to shares and per share amounts, including shares of common stock underlying stock options, warrants, and applicable exercise prices, have been retroactively adjusted for all periods presented herein to give effect to the Reverse Stock Split as required in accordance with United States of America generally accepted accounting principles.

Results of Operations

Revenue

We recognize revenue from the sale of XpresSpa, Treat and Naples Wax services when they are rendered at our stores and from the sale of products at the time goods are purchased at our stores or online (usually by credit card), net of discounts and applicable sales taxes.

During the third quarter of 2022, XpresTest, in partnership with Ginkgo BioWorks in continuation of their support to the CDC’s traveler-based SARS-CoV-2 genomic surveillance program was awarded a new contract. We recognize revenue over time for both sample collection performance obligations, using the input method based on time elapsed to measure progress towards satisfying each of the performance obligations. The Company recognizes revenue ratably (straight line basis) over the term of the contract (one year).

HyperPointe provides a broad range of service and support options for our customers, including technical support services and advanced services. Technical support services represent the majority of these offerings which are distinct performance obligations that are satisfied over time with revenue recognized ratably over the contract term.

Cost of sales

Cost of sales for our XpresSpa, XpresTest, Naples Wax and Treat segments consist of location and segment level costs. Location and segment level costs include all costs that are directly attributable to operations, primarily payroll and related benefit costs for personnel, occupancy costs and cost of products sold.

26

Other general and administrative expenses

Other general and administrative expenses include management and administrative personnel, overhead and occupancy costs, insurance and various professional fees, as well as stock-based compensation for directors, management and administrative personnel.

The decrease in cost of sales of $486 or 7%, is a result of 3 XpresSpa locations closing during 2023. The largest component in the cost of sales is labor costs at the location-level. Cost of sales also includes rent and related occupancy costs, which can primarily include rent based on percentage of sales, as well as other product costs directly associated with the procurement of retail inventory, and other operating costs.

The decrease in depreciation and amortization of approximately 62% was primarily due to the write-off of the stores that were permanently closed in 2023. Fewer locations resulted in lower depreciation of leasehold improvements. Depreciation and amortization expense also decreased because of the impairments and disposals of fixed assets during the year ended December 31, 2023.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2024, we had $4,317 of cash and cash equivalents (excluding restricted cash), $14,784 in marketable securities, and total current assets of $24,456. Our total current liabilities balance, which includes accounts payable, deferred revenue, accrued expenses, and operating lease liabilities was approximately $9,187 as of March 31, 2024 and $9,330 as of December 31, 2023. The working capital surplus was $15,269 as of March 31, 2024, compared to a working capital surplus of $17,236 as of December 31, 2023.

We have carried out an assessment of our ability to continue as a going concern. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10Q, we believe that our Company has sufficient liquidity to fund operations for the next twelve months. Our

28

primary liquidity and capital requirements are for the maintenance of our current XpresSpa and Treat locations and brand, as well as the expansion of Naples Wax and our off-airport strategy. During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, we used $3,682 and $5,865 in operations, respectively.

On August 31, 2021, our board of directors initially authorized a stock repurchase program that permitted the purchase and repurchase of up to 750,000 shares of our common stock through September 15, 2022. In May 2022, the Board increased the share repurchase program by an additional 500,000 shares and extended its effectiveness through September 15, 2023. Under this stock repurchase program, management has discretion in determining the conditions under which shares may be purchased from time to time. The program does not require us to repurchase any specific number of shares, and may be modified, suspended or terminated at any time without prior notice.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included with this Quarterly Report on Form 10Q should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, as amended, filed with the SEC which includes a description of our critical accounting estimates that involve subjective and complex judgments that could potentially affect reported results. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting estimates as to the methodologies or assumptions we apply under them. We continue to monitor such methodologies and assumptions.

Item 3.         Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Not applicable.

Item 4.         Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial and Accounting Officer), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As of March 31, 2024, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures.

This type of evaluation is performed on a quarterly basis so that conclusions of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, concerning the effectiveness of the disclosure controls can be reported in our periodic reports on Form 10-Q and Form 10-K. The overall goals of these evaluation activities are to monitor our disclosure controls and to modify them as necessary. We intend to maintain the disclosure controls as dynamic systems that we adjust as circumstances merit. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2024.

Remediation Plan for Material Weakness in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management is committed to the remediation of the Company’s material weaknesses, as well as the continued improvement of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Management has implemented, and continues to implement, the actions described below to remediate the underlying causes of the control deficiencies that gave rise to the material weaknesses. Until the remediation efforts described below, including any additional measures management identifies as necessary, are completed, the material weaknesses described above will continue to exist. We cannot provide any assurance that the below remediation efforts will be successful or that our internal control over financial reporting will

29

be effective as a result of these efforts. Management has commenced the following actions and will continue to assess additional opportunities for remediation on an ongoing basis:

1)The Company has turned on the multi-currency features related to its cloud-based accounting systems.
2)The Company has engaged outside service providers to assist with the valuation, accounting, and recording of key reporting areas such as leases, revenue recognition and stock compensation expense.
3)The Company has contracted an independent consulting firm to assist with the preparation of the Financial Statements and U.S. GAAP accounting research.
4)The Company has engaged outside service providers to review the applicable complementary user entity controls described in the service organizations’ reports for their potential impact on the Company’s financial reporting.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Other than as set forth in the foregoing paragraph, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2024 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Overview

XWELL is a global wellness company operating multiple brands and focused on bringing restorative, regenerative and reinvigorating products and services to travelers. XWELL currently has four reportable operating segments: XpresSpa®, XpresTest®, Naples Wax Center and Treat™.

On October 25, 2022, the Company changed its name to XWELL, Inc. (“XWELL” or the “Company”) from XpresSpa Group, Inc. The Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share, which had previously been listed under the trading symbol “XSPA” on the Nasdaq Capital Market, now trades under the trading symbol “XWEL”. The Company filed an amended and restated certificate of incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State on October 24, 2022 (the “Amended and Restated Certificate”) reflecting the name change. Rebranding to XWELL aligned the Company’s corporate strategy to build a pure-play wellness services company, in both the airport and off-airport marketplaces.

XpresSpa

XWELL’s subsidiary, XpresSpa Holdings, LLC (“XpresSpa”) has been a global airport retailer of spa services through its XpresSpa spa locations, offering travelers premium spa services, including massage, nail and skin care, as well as spa and travel products.

As of March 31, 2024, there were 21 domestic XpresSpa locations in total, 19 Company-owned locations and two franchises. The Company also had 11 international locations operating as of March 31, 2024, including two XpresSpa locations in Dubai International Airport in the United Arab Emirates, one XpresSpa location in Zayad International Airport in Abu Dhabi, UAE, three XpresSpa locations in Schiphol Amsterdam Airport in the Netherlands and five XpresSpa locations in the Istanbul Airport in Turkey.

XpresTest

The Company, in partnership with certain COVID-19 testing partners, successfully launched its XpresCheck Wellness Centers, in June of 2020, through its XpresTest, Inc. subsidiary (“XpresTest”), which offered COVID-19 and other medical diagnostic testing services to the traveling public, as well as airline, airport and concessionaire employees, and TSA and U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents during the pandemic. During 2022 and 2023, as countries continued to relax their testing requirements resulting in rapid decline of testing volumes at the Company’s XpresCheck locations, the Company closed XpresCheck Wellness Centers. As of December 31, 2023, we have closed all XpresCheck locations.

XWELL’s subsidiary, XpresTest, Inc (“XpresTest”) began conducting bio surveillance monitoring with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in collaboration with Concentric by Ginkgo BioWorks in 2021. The program was extended in January 2022 and renewed in August of 2022 and 2023. In March 2024, the program funding and scope were expanded.

HyperPointe

XWELL’s subsidiary, gcg Connect, LLC, operating as HyperPointe, provides direct to business marketing support across a number of health and health-related channels.  From the creation of marketing campaigns for the pharmaceutical industry, to learning management systems to website and health related content creation, HyperPointe is a complementary service provider to XWELL’s health-focused brands as well as providing the majority of services to the external community.

For reporting purposes, the former HyperPointe segment has been consolidated into the XpresTest segment.

Treat

Treat, which is operating through XWELL’s subsidiary Treat, Inc. (“Treat”) is a wellness brand that provides access to wellness services for travelers at on-site centers (currently located in JFK International Airport). In April 2024, the decision was made to close the location in the Salt Lake City International Airport.

Treat offers a full retail product offering and a suite of wellness and spa services. Travelers can purchase time blocks to use our wellness rooms to engage in interactive services like self-guided yoga, meditation and low impact weight exercises or to relax and unplug from the hectic pace of the airport and renew themselves before or after their trip.

Naples Wax Center

XWELL’s subsidiary Naples Wax Center, LLC, which was acquired on September 12, 2023, for a purchase price of $1,624 operates three high-performing locations with core products and service offerings from face and body waxing to a range of skincare and cosmetic products. The acquisition of Naples Wax Center is intended to enable the Company to move beyond its airport client base with a business that can be adapted to a larger wellness platform while also growing its retail footprint to serve long-term financial goals.

TreatStudios

In Q4 of 2023, the Company began plans to open its first TreatStudios location in Jacksonville, Florida in 2024.  TreatStudios is an out-of-airport concept providing leased space to established wellness service providers.  Revenue will be derived from both lease payments received from the wellness practitioners and the sale of retail at the wellness center.

The Company believes that these strategic imperatives will be accomplished through development of an infrastructure specifically focused on enabling scalable and efficient growth.

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Article 8-03 of Regulation S-X, and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, as amended. The consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2023 was derived from the audited annual financial statements but does not include all information required by GAAP for annual financial statements. The financial statements include the accounts of the Company, all entities that are wholly owned by the Company, and all entities in which the Company has a controlling financial interest. All adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation for the periods presented have been reflected by the Company. Such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year or for any other interim period. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Reverse Stock Split

On September 28, 2023, the Company effected a 1-for-20 reverse stock split, (the “Reverse Stock Split”) whereby every twenty shares of its Common Stock were reduced to one share of its Common Stock and the price per share of its Common Stock was multiplied by 20. All references to shares and per share amounts have been adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split.

Liquidity and Financial Condition

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $4,317 (excluding restricted cash), $14,784 in marketable securities, and total current assets of $24,456. The Company’s total current liabilities balance, which includes accounts payable, deferred revenue, accrued expenses, and operating lease liabilities was $9,187 as of March 31, 2024 and $9,330 as of December 31, 2023. The working capital surplus was $15,269 as of March 31, 2024, compared to a working capital surplus of $17,236 as of December 31, 2023.

The Company significantly reduced operating and overhead expenses in the second half of 2023, while it continues to focus on returning to overall profitability.

The Company has taken actions to improve its overall cash position, right sizing its corporate structure and streamlining its operations. The Company is pursuing strategic partnerships that the Company expects will further strengthen the long-term profitability of the business.

Note 2. Accounting and Reporting Policies

Use of estimates

The preparation of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the periods presented. Actual results may differ from such estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the Company’s long-lived assets, intangibles assets, the useful lives of the Company’s intangible assets, the valuation of stock-based compensation, deferred tax assets and liabilities, income tax uncertainties, and other contingencies.

Revenue Recognition Policy

XpresSpa, Treat and Naples Wax Center

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of products and services when the services are rendered at XpresSpa, Treat, and Naples Wax Centers locations and from the sale of products at the time products are purchased at the Company’s stores or online usually by credit card, net of discounts and applicable sales taxes. Accordingly, the Company recognizes revenue for the Company’s single performance obligation related to both in-store and online sales at the point at which the service has been performed or the control of the merchandise has passed to the customer.

XpresTest

During the third quarter of 2022, XpresTest, in partnership with Ginkgo BioWorks in continuation of their support to the CDC’s traveler-based SARS-CoV-2 genomic surveillance program was awarded a new contract. The partnership is expected to support public health and biosecurity services totaling approximately $16,000, with an overall potential to exceed $61,000 based on CDC program options and public health priorities. As COVID-19 sub-variants and other biological threats continue to emerge, the partners plan to expand the program footprint and incorporate innovative modalities and offerings, such as monitoring of wastewater from aircraft lavatories. The current contract with Ginkgo BioWorks related to the above partnership contains fixed pricing for which the Company is entitled to $10,674 for the sample collection (passenger and aircraft wastewater) and $370 for the traveler enrollment initiatives, which represents the amount of consideration that we are entitled. The Company recognizes revenue over time for both sample collection performance obligations, using the input method based on time elapsed to measure progress towards satisfying each of the performance obligations. We recognized the revenue for the traveler enrollment initiative performance obligation in the second quarter of 2023. The Company recognizes revenue ratably (straight line basis) over the term of the contract (one year). The Company recorded $3,306 and $1,670, in revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, related to sample collection performance obligations because the Company’s efforts towards satisfying each of the performance obligations are expended evenly throughout the period of performance.

HyperPointe

The Company’s HyperPointe business provides a broad range of service and support options for HyperPointe’s customers, including technical support services and advanced services. Technical support services represent the majority of these offerings which are distinct performance obligations that are satisfied over time with revenue recognized ratably over the contract term. Advanced services are distinct performance obligations that are satisfied over time with revenue recognized as services are delivered.  Revenues billed in advance are treated as deferred revenue, which was $87 and $72 as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

The Company excludes all sales taxes assessed to our customers from revenue. Sales taxes assessed on revenues are included in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets until remitted to state agencies.

Gift cards, customer rewards and prepaid packages

XWELL offers no-fee, non-expiring gift cards to its customers. No revenue is recognized upon the issuance of a gift card and a liability is established for the gift card’s cash value. The liability is relieved, and revenue is recognized upon redemption by the customer. As the gift cards have no expiration date, there is no provision for the reduction in the value of unused card balances.

In addition, XWELL maintains a rewards program in which customers earn loyalty points, which can be redeemed for future services. Loyalty points are rewarded upon joining the loyalty program, for customer birthdays, and based upon customer spending. When a customer redeems loyalty points, the Company recognizes revenue for the redeemed cash value and reduces the related loyalty program liability. In 2023 the Company adopted a formal expiration policy whereby any loyalty members with inactivity for an 18-month period will forfeit any unused loyalty rewards.

The costs associated with gift cards and reward points are accrued as the rewards are earned by the cardholder and are included in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets until used.

Naples Wax Center offers prepaid wax packages that are either unlimited for one year or a set number of services. When the packages are purchased, the sales are recorded as deferred revenue. As services related to prepaid packages are used, revenue is recognized as income. The deferred revenue as of March 31, 2024 was $794 and for the year ended December 31, 2023 deferred revenue was $778.

Translation into United States dollars

The Company conducts certain transactions in foreign currencies, which are recorded at the exchange rate as of the transaction date. All exchange gains and losses occurring from the remeasurement of monetary balance sheet items denominated in non-dollar currencies are deemed non-operating income in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.  During the three months ended March 2024, the Company recorded $166 in exchange losses occurring from the remeasurement of monetary balance sheet items denominated in non-dollar currencies. During the three months ended March 2023, the Company recorded $85 in exchange gain.

Accounts of the foreign subsidiaries of XpresSpa are translated into United States dollars. Assets and liabilities have been translated primarily at period end exchange rates and revenues and expenses have been translated at average monthly rates for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The translation adjustments arising from the use of different exchange rates are included as foreign currency translation within the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) and condensed consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity.

Business Combinations

The Company uses the provisions of ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”) in the accounting for acquisitions of businesses. ASC 805 requires the Company to use the acquisition method of accounting by recognizing the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquired business, measured at their acquisition date fair values. Goodwill as of the acquisition date is measured as the excess of consideration transferred over the aforementioned amounts.

While the Company uses its best estimates and assumptions to accurately apply preliminary values to assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, these estimates are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. As a result, during the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date, the Company may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period or final determination of the values of the assets acquired or liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, any subsequent adjustments are recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Accounting for business combinations requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially at the acquisition date, including estimates for intangible assets. Although the Company believes the assumptions and estimates that have been made are reasonable and appropriate, they are based in part on historical experience and

information obtained from the acquired companies and are inherently uncertain. Estimates in valuing certain of the intangible assets the Company has acquired include future expected cash flows, and discount rates.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets include customer relationships, trade names, and technology, which were primarily acquired as part of the acquisition of XpresSpa in December 2016, HyperPointe in 2022 and Naples Wax Center in 2023 and were recorded based on the estimated fair value in purchase price allocation. In addition, intangible assets include software and website development costs that were capitalized as part of the Company’s development of a mobile application and website for the Treat brand. The Company accounts for these costs in accordance with ASC 350-40, Internal-Use Software. The intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives, which are periodically evaluated for reasonableness.

The Company’s intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The fair value is then compared to the carrying value and an impairment charge is recognized by the amount in which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset. In assessing the recoverability of the Company’s intangible assets, the Company must make estimates and assumptions regarding future cash flows and other factors to determine the fair value of the respective assets. These estimates and assumptions could have a significant impact on whether an impairment charge is recognized and the magnitude of any such charge. Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant information.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the cost of a business acquisition in excess of the fair value of the net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized and is reviewed for impairment annually, or more frequently if facts and circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. If it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the company performs a quantitative test to identify and measure the amount of goodwill impairment loss. The Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount. If the carrying amount exceeds fair value, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered impaired, and that excess is recognized as a goodwill impairment loss. During the quarter ended March 31, 2024, the Company did not record any goodwill impairment loss.

Reclassification

Certain balances in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2023 have been reclassified to conform to the presentation in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily the presentation of revenue, general and administrative expense, foreign currency exchange gain, and the realized and unrealized gain on investments and other operating expenses. The above separation affected revenue classifications, general and administrative expenses, foreign currency exchange gain, and the realized and unrealized gain on investments and other operating expenses in the comparative 2023 financial statements. Such reclassifications did not have a material impact on the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets are tested for impairment at the lowest level at which there are identifiable operating cash flows. The Company’s long-lived assets consist primarily of leasehold improvements and right to use lease assets for each of its locations (considered the asset group). The Company reviews its long-lived assets for recoverability yearly or sooner if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. If indicators are present, the Company performs a recoverability test by comparing the sum of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows attributable to the asset group in question to its carrying amount. An impairment loss is recognized if it is determined that the long-lived asset group is not recoverable and is calculated based on the excess of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset group over the long-lived asset group’s fair value. The Company estimates the fair value of long-lived assets using present value income approach. Future cash flows are calculated based on forecasts over the estimated remaining useful life of the asset group, which for each of the Company’s locations, is the remaining term of the operating lease.

The estimates used to calculate future cash flows are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgments and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimated fair value of each asset group. The Company will calculate the future cash flow using what it believes to be the most predictable of several scenarios. Typically, the changes in assumptions run under different business scenarios would not result in a material change in the assessment of the potential impairment or the impairment amount of a locations long-lived asset group. But if these estimates or related assumptions were to change materially, the Company may be required to record an impairment charge.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024 the Company recorded impairment of  long-lived assets of $652 compared with $0 impairment of long-lived assets in March 2023.

Acquisition of Naples Wax, LLC

Note 8. Acquisition of Naples Wax, LLC

On September 12, 2023, the Company acquired all of the equity interests in Naples Wax, LLC, d/b/a Naples Wax Centers, a Florida limited liability company (“Naples Wax”), for an aggregate purchase price of $1,624, of which $1,574 was paid in cash at closing. The remaining $50 was held for six months as a holdback to cover any potential indemnification claims. $14 was paid in the quarter ended March 31, 2024. The remaining $36 was offset by operating expenses.

The Company applies the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”) in the accounting for acquisitions of businesses. ASC 805 requires the Company to use the acquisition method of accounting by recognizing the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquired business, measured at their acquisition date fair values. Goodwill as of the acquisition date is measured as the excess of consideration transferred over the aforementioned amounts.

While the company uses its best estimates and assumptions to accurately apply preliminary values to assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, these estimates are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. As a result, during the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date, the Company may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill. As of March 31, 2024, no impairment of the Company’s goodwill was required. The purchase accounting for the acquisition remains incomplete as management continues to gather and evaluate information about circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period or final determination of the values of the assets acquired or liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, any subsequent adjustments are recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Accounting for business combinations requires management to make estimates and assumptions, especially at the acquisition date, including estimates for intangible assets. Although the Company believes the assumptions and estimates that have been made are reasonable and appropriate, they are based in part on historical experience and information obtained from the acquired companies and are inherently uncertain. Estimates in valuing certain of the intangible assets the Company has acquired include future expected cash flows, and discount rates.

For income tax purposes, this acquisition of 100% of the units is treated as an asset acquisition. As a result of the acquisition of Naples Wax, the company generated tax deductible goodwill of $1,371.

Note 9. Leases

The Company leases spa and clinic locations at various domestic and international airports. Additionally, the Company leases its corporate office in New York City and other off airport locations in various US cities. Certain leases entered into by the Company are accounted for in accordance with ASC 842. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at

inception and if it qualifies under ASC 842. The Company’s lease arrangements generally contain fixed payments throughout the term of the lease and most also contain a variable component to determine the lease obligation where a certain percentage of sales is used to calculate the lease payments. The Company enters into leases that expire, are amended and extended, or are extended on a month-to-month basis. Leases are not included in the calculation of the total lease liability and the right of use asset when they are month-to-month.

All qualifying leases held by the Company are classified as operating leases. Operating lease assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent its obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The Company records its operating lease assets and liabilities based on required guaranteed payments under each lease agreement. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate, which approximates the rate at which the Company can borrow funds on a secured basis, using the information available at commencement date of the lease in determining the present value of guaranteed lease payments. The interest rate implicit in the lease is generally not determinable in transactions where a company is the lessee.

The Company reviews all of its existing lease agreements to determine whether there were any modifications to lease agreements and to assess if any agreements should be accounted for pursuant to the guidance in ASC 842.

The following is a summary of the activity in the Company’s current and long-term operating lease liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023:

2023 Reverse Stock Split

On September 28, 2023, we effected the “Reverse Stock Split”, whereby every twenty shares of our common stock were reduced to one share of our common stock and the price per share of our common stock was multiplied by 20. All references to shares and per share amounts, including shares of common stock underlying stock options, warrants, and applicable exercise prices, have been retroactively adjusted for all periods presented herein to give effect to the Reverse Stock Split as required in accordance with United States of America generally accepted accounting principles.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company has a stock-based compensation plan available to grant stock options and RSUs to the Company’s directors, employees and consultants.

In September 2020, the Board of Directors approved a new stock-based compensation plan available to grant stock options, restricted stock and Restricted Stock Units (“RSU’s”) aggregating to 250,000 shares of Common Stock, to the Company’s directors, employees and consultants. Shareholder approval of the plan was subsequently obtained on October 28, 2020. On October 4, 2022, shareholders approved the amendment to the Company’s 2020 Equity Incentive Plan to increase the number of shares authorized for issuance under the Plan by 375,000 shares of Common Stock to an aggregate of 625,000 shares. Under the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”), a maximum of 141,120 shares of Common Stock remained available for issuance as of March 31, 2024.  

The Company’s previous Employee, Director and Consultant Equity Incentive Plan (the “2012 Plan”) was terminated upon receipt of shareholder approval of the 2020 Plan.  Awards granted under the 2012 Plan remain in effect pursuant to their terms. Generally, stock options are granted with exercise prices equal to the fair market value on the date of grant, vest in four equal quarterly installments, and expire 10 years from the date of grant. RSU’s granted generally vest over a period of one year.

In September 2020, XpresTest created a stock-based compensation plan available to grant stock options, restricted stock and RSU’s to the XpresTest’s directors, employees and consultants. Under the XpresTest 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “XpresTest Plan”), a maximum of 200 shares of XpresTest common stock may be awarded, which would represent 20% of the total number of shares of common stock of XpresTest as of March 31, 2024. Certain named executive officers, consultants, and directors of the Company are eligible to participate in the XpresTest Plan. The XpresTest Plan RSAs vest upon satisfaction of certain service and performance-based conditions. The fair value of the XpresTest Plan RSAs is determined based on the weighted average of (i) Fair Value of XpresTest under the Indirect Valuation Method developing assumptions for XpresSpa Net Market Cap and XpresSpa standalone Fair Value, and (ii) Direct Valuation Method developing assumptions for XpresTest Representative Forecasted Revenue for 2021 and Peer companies Revenue’s Multiples.

As of March 31, 2024 and 2023, there was $74 and $167 respectively of unrecognized stock-based compensation related to the XpresTest Plan.

The fair value of stock options is estimated as of the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton (“Black-Scholes”) option-pricing model. The Company uses the simplified method to estimate the expected term of options due to insufficient history and high turnover in the past. 

The following variables were used as inputs in the model:

Income Taxes

Note 12. Income Taxes

The Company’s provision for income taxes consists of federal, state, local, and foreign taxes in amounts necessary to align the Company’s year-to-date provision for income taxes with the effective tax rate that the Company expects to achieve for the full year. Each quarter, the Company updates its estimate of the annual effective tax rate and records cumulative adjustments as deemed necessary. The income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2024, reflects an estimated global annual effective tax rate of approximately 0% from continuing operations.

As of March 31, 2024, deferred tax assets generated from the Company’s U.S. activities were offset by a valuation allowance because realization depends on generating future taxable income, which, in the Company’s estimation, is not more likely than not to be generated before such net operating loss carryforwards expire. Net operating loss carryforwards generated after December 31, 2017 do not expire. The Company expects its effective tax rate for its current fiscal year to be significantly lower than the statutory rate as a result of a full valuation allowance; therefore, any loss before income taxes does not generate a corresponding income tax benefit. Income tax expense/(benefit) for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $0 which was attributed to state taxing jurisdictions in which a measure of income is utilized to determine a tax liability. The final annual tax rate cannot be determined until the end of the fiscal year; therefore, the actual tax rate could differ from current estimates.

Note 13. Commitments and Contingencies

Certain of the Company’s outstanding legal matters include speculative claims for substantial or indeterminate amounts of damages. The Company regularly evaluates developments in its legal matters that could affect the amount of any potential liability and adjusts as appropriate. A significant judgment is required to determine both the likelihood of there being any potential liability and the estimated amount of a loss related to the Company’s legal matters.

With respect to the Company’s outstanding legal matters, based on its current knowledge, the Company’s management believes that the amount or range of a potential loss will not, either individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on its business, consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, the outcome of such legal matters is inherently unpredictable and subject to significant uncertainties. The Company evaluated the outstanding legal matters and assessed the probability and likelihood of the occurrence of liability. Based on management’s estimates, the Company has recorded accruals of $424 and $449 as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, which is included in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company expenses legal fees in the period in which they are incurred.

OTG Management PHL B v. XpresSpa Philadelphia Terminal B et al.

On May 9, 2022, a lawsuit was filed in the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas by OTG Management at Philadelphia International Airport, claiming that XWELL improperly backed out of its sublease for space at Terminal B and now owes between $864 and $2,250 in accelerated rent for the 12-year contract.  They claim that by refusing to complete the project, failing to commence and maintain operations, refusing to pay rent and improperly purporting to terminate the lease (among other acts and omissions), XWELL breached the lease. On January 9, 2024, the court placed the matter on Civil Suspense.

In addition to those matters specifically set forth herein, the Company and its subsidiaries are involved in various other claims and legal actions that arise in the ordinary course of business. The Company does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these actions will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, liquidity, or capital resources. However, a significant increase in the number of these claims, or one or more successful claims under which the Company incurs greater liabilities than the Company currently anticipates, could materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

In the event that an action is brought against the Company or one of its subsidiaries, the Company will investigate the allegation and vigorously defend itself.

Leases

XWELL is contingently liable to a surety company under certain general indemnity agreements required by various airports relating to its lease agreements. XWELL agrees to indemnify the surety for any payments made on contracts of suretyship, guaranty, or indemnity. The Company believes that all contingent liabilities will be satisfied by its performance under the specified lease agreements.

Use of estimates

Use of estimates

The preparation of the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the periods presented. Actual results may differ from such estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the Company’s long-lived assets, intangibles assets, the useful lives of the Company’s intangible assets, the valuation of stock-based compensation, deferred tax assets and liabilities, income tax uncertainties, and other contingencies.

Revenue Recognition Policy

Revenue Recognition Policy

XpresSpa, Treat and Naples Wax Center

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of products and services when the services are rendered at XpresSpa, Treat, and Naples Wax Centers locations and from the sale of products at the time products are purchased at the Company’s stores or online usually by credit card, net of discounts and applicable sales taxes. Accordingly, the Company recognizes revenue for the Company’s single performance obligation related to both in-store and online sales at the point at which the service has been performed or the control of the merchandise has passed to the customer.

XpresTest

During the third quarter of 2022, XpresTest, in partnership with Ginkgo BioWorks in continuation of their support to the CDC’s traveler-based SARS-CoV-2 genomic surveillance program was awarded a new contract. The partnership is expected to support public health and biosecurity services totaling approximately $16,000, with an overall potential to exceed $61,000 based on CDC program options and public health priorities. As COVID-19 sub-variants and other biological threats continue to emerge, the partners plan to expand the program footprint and incorporate innovative modalities and offerings, such as monitoring of wastewater from aircraft lavatories. The current contract with Ginkgo BioWorks related to the above partnership contains fixed pricing for which the Company is entitled to $10,674 for the sample collection (passenger and aircraft wastewater) and $370 for the traveler enrollment initiatives, which represents the amount of consideration that we are entitled. The Company recognizes revenue over time for both sample collection performance obligations, using the input method based on time elapsed to measure progress towards satisfying each of the performance obligations. We recognized the revenue for the traveler enrollment initiative performance obligation in the second quarter of 2023. The Company recognizes revenue ratably (straight line basis) over the term of the contract (one year). The Company recorded $3,306 and $1,670, in revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, related to sample collection performance obligations because the Company’s efforts towards satisfying each of the performance obligations are expended evenly throughout the period of performance.

HyperPointe

The Company’s HyperPointe business provides a broad range of service and support options for HyperPointe’s customers, including technical support services and advanced services. Technical support services represent the majority of these offerings which are distinct performance obligations that are satisfied over time with revenue recognized ratably over the contract term. Advanced services are distinct performance obligations that are satisfied over time with revenue recognized as services are delivered.  Revenues billed in advance are treated as deferred revenue, which was $87 and $72 as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

The Company excludes all sales taxes assessed to our customers from revenue. Sales taxes assessed on revenues are included in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets until remitted to state agencies.

Gift cards, customer rewards and prepaid packages

Gift cards, customer rewards and prepaid packages

XWELL offers no-fee, non-expiring gift cards to its customers. No revenue is recognized upon the issuance of a gift card and a liability is established for the gift card’s cash value. The liability is relieved, and revenue is recognized upon redemption by the customer. As the gift cards have no expiration date, there is no provision for the reduction in the value of unused card balances.

In addition, XWELL maintains a rewards program in which customers earn loyalty points, which can be redeemed for future services. Loyalty points are rewarded upon joining the loyalty program, for customer birthdays, and based upon customer spending. When a customer redeems loyalty points, the Company recognizes revenue for the redeemed cash value and reduces the related loyalty program liability. In 2023 the Company adopted a formal expiration policy whereby any loyalty members with inactivity for an 18-month period will forfeit any unused loyalty rewards.

The costs associated with gift cards and reward points are accrued as the rewards are earned by the cardholder and are included in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets until used.

Naples Wax Center offers prepaid wax packages that are either unlimited for one year or a set number of services. When the packages are purchased, the sales are recorded as deferred revenue. As services related to prepaid packages are used, revenue is recognized as income. The deferred revenue as of March 31, 2024 was $794 and for the year ended December 31, 2023 deferred revenue was $778.

Translation into United States dollars

Translation into United States dollars

The Company conducts certain transactions in foreign currencies, which are recorded at the exchange rate as of the transaction date. All exchange gains and losses occurring from the remeasurement of monetary balance sheet items denominated in non-dollar currencies are deemed non-operating income in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.  During the three months ended March 2024, the Company recorded $166 in exchange losses occurring from the remeasurement of monetary balance sheet items denominated in non-dollar currencies. During the three months ended March 2023, the Company recorded $85 in exchange gain.

Accounts of the foreign subsidiaries of XpresSpa are translated into United States dollars. Assets and liabilities have been translated primarily at period end exchange rates and revenues and expenses have been translated at average monthly rates for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The translation adjustments arising from the use of different exchange rates are included as foreign currency translation within the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) and condensed consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity.

Business Combinations

Business Combinations

The Company uses the provisions of ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”) in the accounting for acquisitions of businesses. ASC 805 requires the Company to use the acquisition method of accounting by recognizing the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquired business, measured at their acquisition date fair values. Goodwill as of the acquisition date is measured as the excess of consideration transferred over the aforementioned amounts.

While the Company uses its best estimates and assumptions to accurately apply preliminary values to assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, these estimates are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. As a result, during the measurement period, which may be up to one year from the acquisition date, the Company may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period or final determination of the values of the assets acquired or liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, any subsequent adjustments are recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Accounting for business combinations requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially at the acquisition date, including estimates for intangible assets. Although the Company believes the assumptions and estimates that have been made are reasonable and appropriate, they are based in part on historical experience and

information obtained from the acquired companies and are inherently uncertain. Estimates in valuing certain of the intangible assets the Company has acquired include future expected cash flows, and discount rates.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets

Intangible assets include customer relationships, trade names, and technology, which were primarily acquired as part of the acquisition of XpresSpa in December 2016, HyperPointe in 2022 and Naples Wax Center in 2023 and were recorded based on the estimated fair value in purchase price allocation. In addition, intangible assets include software and website development costs that were capitalized as part of the Company’s development of a mobile application and website for the Treat brand. The Company accounts for these costs in accordance with ASC 350-40, Internal-Use Software. The intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives, which are periodically evaluated for reasonableness.

The Company’s intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The fair value is then compared to the carrying value and an impairment charge is recognized by the amount in which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset. In assessing the recoverability of the Company’s intangible assets, the Company must make estimates and assumptions regarding future cash flows and other factors to determine the fair value of the respective assets. These estimates and assumptions could have a significant impact on whether an impairment charge is recognized and the magnitude of any such charge. Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant information.

Goodwill

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the cost of a business acquisition in excess of the fair value of the net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized and is reviewed for impairment annually, or more frequently if facts and circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. If it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the company performs a quantitative test to identify and measure the amount of goodwill impairment loss. The Company compares the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount. If the carrying amount exceeds fair value, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered impaired, and that excess is recognized as a goodwill impairment loss. During the quarter ended March 31, 2024, the Company did not record any goodwill impairment loss.

Reclassification

Reclassification

Certain balances in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2023 have been reclassified to conform to the presentation in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily the presentation of revenue, general and administrative expense, foreign currency exchange gain, and the realized and unrealized gain on investments and other operating expenses. The above separation affected revenue classifications, general and administrative expenses, foreign currency exchange gain, and the realized and unrealized gain on investments and other operating expenses in the comparative 2023 financial statements. Such reclassifications did not have a material impact on the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Long-lived assets are tested for impairment at the lowest level at which there are identifiable operating cash flows. The Company’s long-lived assets consist primarily of leasehold improvements and right to use lease assets for each of its locations (considered the asset group). The Company reviews its long-lived assets for recoverability yearly or sooner if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. If indicators are present, the Company performs a recoverability test by comparing the sum of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows attributable to the asset group in question to its carrying amount. An impairment loss is recognized if it is determined that the long-lived asset group is not recoverable and is calculated based on the excess of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset group over the long-lived asset group’s fair value. The Company estimates the fair value of long-lived assets using present value income approach. Future cash flows are calculated based on forecasts over the estimated remaining useful life of the asset group, which for each of the Company’s locations, is the remaining term of the operating lease.

The estimates used to calculate future cash flows are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgments and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimated fair value of each asset group. The Company will calculate the future cash flow using what it believes to be the most predictable of several scenarios. Typically, the changes in assumptions run under different business scenarios would not result in a material change in the assessment of the potential impairment or the impairment amount of a locations long-lived asset group. But if these estimates or related assumptions were to change materially, the Company may be required to record an impairment charge.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024 the Company recorded impairment of  long-lived assets of $652 compared with $0 impairment of long-lived assets in March 2023.
