Business and financial performance
Glowpoint provides managed video-collaboration and network-application services. Unless noted otherwise, amounts are in thousands of dollars. Q1 2019 is compared with Q1 2018.

- Margins and operating results: Cost of revenue was $1,675, or 65% of revenue, versus $2,147, or 62%. Implied gross margin was approximately 35%, down from 38%. Operating loss was $598 versus $880; net loss was $598 versus $1,285. The prior-year period included a $650 goodwill impairment charge and $405 of net interest and other expense, neither present in Q1 2019. Net loss attributable to common stockholders was $613 ($0.12 per share), versus $1,288 ($0.28 per share).
- Cash flow and liquidity: Operating cash use was $408 versus $472; investing cash use was $9 versus $48; financing cash use was $1 versus $358. Cash declined $418 during the quarter to $1,589. Working capital was $2,284. The company reported no debt.

Changes, outlook, and risks
- Management attributed revenue declines to customer attrition, lower service demand, competitive pressure, pricing reductions, and lower resale of video equipment. It expects the negative year-over-year revenue trend to continue for the foreseeable future; typical sales cycles are six to 18 months.
- Management anticipated negative operating cash flow for the remainder of 2019. It said current projections support funding operations for at least the next 12 months, but additional capital will likely be needed over the longer term, including for product development and sales and marketing. Potential equity financing may not be available on acceptable terms.
- On April 28, 2019, after quarter-end, Glowpoint and SharedLabs terminated their proposed merger agreement. Glowpoint reserved its rights to pursue fees and expenses; recovery is uncertain, and no potential recovery was recorded at March 31.
- Management cited infrastructure cost reductions and exploration of organic growth, acquisitions, or partnerships. It gave no expected timeline for new services or resulting revenue. Failure to invest successfully in new offerings could contribute to further revenue and margin declines.
- Three customers accounted for 28%, 21%, and 10% of Q1 revenue; three customers represented 48%, 15%, and 11% of receivables at quarter-end. A future impairment charge may be triggered by further deterioration in revenue, cash flows, or stock price.
- A one-for-ten reverse stock split took effect April 17, 2019. Management reported disclosure controls as effective and no material change in internal control during the quarter.
