ILEARNINGENGINES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
1. Nature
of the Business and Basis of Presentation
iLearningEngines, Inc. (together
with its subsidiaries, the “Company,” or “ILE”), a company headquartered in Maryland, United States of America,
was incorporated in Delaware on November 17, 2010. The Company offers an Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) platform focused
on automation of learning and enabling organizations to drive mission critical outcomes at scale. The AI Learning and Engagement platform
has cloud-based, mobile, offline and multimedia capabilities that can be used to deliver highly personalized learning and engagement modules.
The Company has developed an in-process learning platform that enables organizations to deliver learning in the flow of day-to-day
activities.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed
consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The
condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of iLearningEngines, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.
A description of the Company’s
significant accounting policies is included in the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.
No changes to significant accounting policies have occurred since December 31, 2023, other than new policy elections related to a
debt amendment discussed in Note 5. Results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented herein are not necessarily
indicative of the results that would be achieved during a full year of operations or in future periods. These unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, included
in the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Business Combination
On April 27, 2023, the
Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) with Arrowroot Acquisition
Corp. (NASDAQ: ARRW) (“Arrowroot”), a special-purpose acquisition company (“SPAC”), and ARAC Merger Sub,
Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Arrowroot (“Merger Sub”). Upon closing of the Merger
Agreement and upon approval by the shareholders of Arrowroot, the combined company will be renamed to “iLearningEngines, Inc.”
and will be listed on the NASDAQ under the new ticker symbol “AILE.” Arrowroot has agreed to acquire all of the outstanding
equity interests of the Company. Completion of the “SPAC Transaction” described herein, is subject to certain customary regulatory
consents and approval by stockholders of Arrowroot and the Company.
The merger with Arrowroot
closed on April 16, 2024. Refer to Note 14 for additional discussion.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Concentration of Credit
Risk and Major Sales Channels
Financial investments that
potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist of cash. The Company places its cash with certain U.S. financial institutions.
At various times, the Company’s cash deposits with any one financial institution may exceed the amount insured by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”). The Company has not experienced any losses of such amounts and management believes it
is not exposed to any significant credit risk on its cash.
During the three months ended
March 31, 2024, there were four customers, representing 16.7%, 13.5%, 11.3%, and 10.3%, respectively, who individually accounted
for 10% or more of the Company’s revenue. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, there were four customers, representing
21.5%, 17.7%, 13.0% and 11.8%, respectively, who individually accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s revenue.
Fair Value Option (“FVO”)
Election
The Company has convertible
notes (refer to Note 6) and debt (refer to Note 5) which are accounted under the “fair value option election” discussed below.
Under Financial Accounting
Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 815, Derivative and Hedging, (“ASC
815”), a financial instrument containing embedded features and /or options may be required to be bifurcated from the financial instrument
host and recognized as separate derivative asset or liability, with the bifurcated derivative asset or liability initially measured at
estimated fair value as of the transaction issue date and then subsequently remeasured at estimated fair value as of each reporting period
balance sheet date.
Alternatively, FASB ASC Topic
825, Financial Instruments, (“ASC 825”) provides for the “fair value option” (“FVO”) election. In
this regard, ASC 825-10-15-4 provides for the FVO election (to the extent not otherwise prohibited by ASC 825-10-15-5) to be afforded
to financial instruments, wherein the financial instrument is initially measured at estimated fair value as of the transaction issue date
and then subsequently remeasured at estimated fair value as of each reporting period balance sheet date, with changes in the estimated
fair value recognized as other income or expense in the statement of operations.
The estimated fair value adjustment
of convertible notes, including the component related to interest expense, is presented in a single line item, “Change in fair value
of convertible notes”, within the condensed consolidated statement of operations (as provided for by ASC 825-10-50-30(b)). As further
discussed in Note 5, there was no change in the fair value of the Amended Term Loans between the date of the amendment on March 27, 2024
and March 31, 2024.
Further, as required by ASC
825-10-45-5, to the extent a portion of the fair value adjustment is attributed to a change in the instrument-specific credit risk, such
portion would be recognized as a component of other comprehensive income (“OCI”), however there have been no such adjustments
with respect to the convertible notes or debt which are accounted for under the fair value option.
Deferred Transaction
Costs
The Company has incurred direct
and incremental transaction costs related to the merger with Arrowroot. Transaction costs of $6.9 million and $4.0 million were deferred
and capitalized to the “Deferred transaction costs” line item within the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March
31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
After consummation of the
merger, these costs will be recorded to shareholders’ deficit as a reduction of additional paid-in capital generated as a result
of the merger. As of March 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, $2.8 million and $1.1 million of unpaid transaction costs are included within
the “Trade accounts payable” line item, and $0.5 million and $1.6 million are included within the “Accrued expenses”
line item, within the condensed consolidated balance sheets, respectively.
Accounts Receivable
and Provision for Credit Losses
Accounts receivable are uncollateralized,
noninterest bearing customer obligations due under normal trade terms and generally requiring payment within 30 to 90 days of the
invoice date. Accounts receivable are stated at the amount billed to the customer, net of provision for credit losses in accordance with
ASC 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses. Payments of accounts receivable are allocated to the specific invoices identified on
the customer’s remittance advice, or, if unspecified, are applied to the earliest unpaid invoice.
The estimation of the provision
for credit loss is based on an analysis of historical loss experience, current receivables aging, any known or expected changes to the
customers’ ability to fulfill their payment obligations, and management’s assessment of current conditions and estimated future
conditions. The general CECL reserve is measured on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist for multiple financial
instruments. The Company notes its account receivables do not similar risks, and the Company measures the CECL reserve on an individual
customer account basis.
At the end of each reporting
period, the provision for credit losses is reviewed relative to management’s expected credit loss model and is adjusted as necessary.
The expense associated with the provision for expected credit losses is recognized in selling, general, and administrative expenses in
the consolidated statements of operations. Accounts receivable write-offs are recorded when management believes it is probable a receivable
will not be recovered. The provision for credit losses as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were $0.5 million and $0.3 million,
respectively.
The following table shows the change in the Company’s
provision for credit losses recognized for receivables between December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2024 (in thousands):

Revenue Recognition
Disaggregation of Revenue
The Company disaggregates
revenue into categories that depict the nature, amount, and timing of revenue and cash flows based on differing economic risk profiles
for each category. In concluding such disaggregation, the Company evaluated the nature of the products and services, consumer markets,
sales terms, and sales channels which have similar characteristics such that the level of disaggregation provides an understanding of
the Company’s business activities and historical performance. The level of disaggregation is evaluated annually and as appropriate
for changes to the Company or its business, either from internal growth, acquisitions, divestitures, or otherwise. Revenue from implementation
services and combined software license and maintenance is recognized over the respective performance obligation period. As such, there
is no disaggregation of revenue by point in time as all of the Company’s revenue is recognized over time.
With respect to the Company’s
disaggregation of revenue by customer geography, geography is primarily determined based on the location of the customer identified in
the contract. Under certain arrangements, the Company enters contracts with the Technology Partner (refer to Note 4 for additional information
about the Company’s contractual arrangements with the Technology Partner) though which the Technology Partner purchases and integrates
the ILE platform into the Technology Partner’s own software solution provided to one of the Technology Partner’s customers.
In this type of contractual arrangement, the Company identifies the Technology Partner as its customer. In contractual arrangements in
which the Technology Partner is identified as the customer, the Technology Partner’s end customer may or may not be known by the
Company In cases in which the Technology Partner’s customer is known to the Company, the geography is determined based on the location
of the Technology Partner’s customer and conversely, in cases in which the Technology Partner’s customer is not known, the
customer geography is determined based on the geography of the Technology Partner. The following table presents this disaggregation of
revenue by customer geography:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Not Yet Adopted
In November 2023, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standard Update (ASU) No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to
Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires a public entity to disclose significant segment expenses and other segment items on an
annual and interim basis and provide in interim periods all disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that
are currently required annually. Additionally, it requires a public entity to disclose the title and position of the Chief Operating Decision
Maker (CODM). The ASU does not change how a public entity identifies its operating segments, aggregates them, or applies the quantitative
thresholds to determine its reportable segments. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and
interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. A public entity should apply the
amendments in this ASU retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is still evaluating the
impact of this standard on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB
issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which focuses on the rate reconciliation and
income taxes paid. ASU No. 2023-09 requires a public business entity (PBE) to disclose, on an annual basis, a tabular rate reconciliation
using both percentages and currency amounts, broken out into specified categories with certain reconciling items further broken out by
nature and jurisdiction to the extent those items exceed a specified threshold. In addition, all entities are required to disclose income
taxes paid, net of refunds received disaggregated by federal, state/local, and foreign and by jurisdiction if the amount is at least 5%
of total income tax payments, net of refunds received. For PBEs, the new standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December
15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. An entity may apply the amendments in this ASU prospectively by providing the revised disclosures
for the period ending December 31, 2025 and continuing to provide the pre-ASU disclosures for the prior periods, or may apply the amendments
retrospectively by providing the revised disclosures for all period presented. The Company is still evaluating the impact of this standard
on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

and $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023, respectively.
Amendment to 2020, 2021
and 2023 Term Loans
On March 27, 2024, ILE entered
into an agreement to amend the 2020, 2021 and 2023 Term Loans (the “Amendment”). The amended terms consisted of:
| (i) | revision to the amortization schedule for the Term Loans in exchange for 1,019,999 shares of “NewCo” (defined in Note
14 - Subsequent Events) common stock to be issued upon completion of the SPAC Transaction (the “Loan Restructuring Shares”) |
| (ii) | agreement to terminate the outstanding warrants issued in connection with the Term Loans and the respective
put rights associated with each, in exchange for the Company’s agreement to provide the respective lenders with an aggregate amount
of 3,399,999 shares of NewCo common stock to be issued upon completion of the SPAC Transaction. |
Pursuant to the Amendment,
if the Company repays the “Amended Term Loans” in full, on or before (i) April 15, 2024, then 90% of the Loan Restructuring
Shares will be canceled, (ii) May 1, 2024, then 80% of the Loan Restructuring Shares will be canceled, and (iii) July 1, 2024, then 50%
of the Loan Restructuring Shares will be canceled.
In addition, the Amendment
provides that, if the Company prepays the Amended Term Loans, then at the Company’s option, the Company may prepay 50% of the amount
of scheduled but unpaid payments of interest that would have accrued after the prepayment date by issuing a number of shares of NewCo
common stock obtained by dividing (A) the product of (x) the unpaid scheduled interest payments and (y) 2.75, by (B) the volume-weighted
average price of NewCo common stock over the seven (7) trading days immediately preceding the date of issuance.
The Loan Restructuring Shares
were determined to be classified as a liability initially measured at fair value with subsequent changes in fair value recorded in earnings.
The initial fair value of the Loan Restructuring Shares was determined to be $2.8 million. The Loan Restructuring Shares are presented
within “Loan restructuring share liability” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. There was
no change in fair value between the date of the initial fair value determined on March 27, 2024 and March 31, 2024.
The Amendment was accounted
for as a debt extinguishment under US GAAP, through which the Company recorded a $10.0 million loss on debt extinguishment within the
accompanying condensed consolidated statement of operations.
The Company elected to account
for the Amended Term Loans under the fair value option. Under the fair value option, the balance is subsequently measured at fair value
for each reporting period with changes in fair value, including changes due to instrument specific credit risk, recorded in earnings.
The initial fair value of the Amended Term Loans was determined to be $26.0 million and there were no changes in fair value between the
date of the Amendment on March 27, 2024 and March 31, 2024:

On April 18, 2024, the Company
prepaid the full amount of the Amended Term Loans using a combination of cash and 159,379 shares of NewCo common stock. Based on the timing
of the prepayment, 815,999 Loan Restructuring Shares were canceled.
Debt Covenant Compliance
The Company’s 2020,
2021, and 2023 Term Loans were subject to covenant clauses. Covenant breaches related to timely filing of payroll tax returns and failure
to maintain $2.0 million of restricted cash were waived by the respective lenders as part of the Amendment. Due to the waivers obtained,
as of March 31, 2024, the Company is in compliance with all debt covenants.
Warrants
The following is a schedule
of changes in warrants issued and outstanding from December 31, 2023 to March 31, 2024:

additional incentive shares (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to (i) $10.00 (the “Conversion Price”), divided
by the greater of (i) the volume-weighted average price of the NewCo common shares over the ten trading days immediately preceding November
30, 2024 (the “Reference Date”) and (ii) $1.00 (the “Reference Price”), minus (ii) one will be issued. The Conversion
Price and Reference Price shall be appropriately adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, recapitalization or
other similar transaction during the period beginning on the date the NewCo common shares are issued upon conversion of the 2024 Convertible
Notes and ending on the Reference Date.
The 2023 and 2024 Convertible

The 2023 and 2024 Convertible
Notes are convertible to shares including under the following circumstances:
| · | upon the occurrence of an equity financing, the lender can elect to exchange the convertible notes into
the number of shares of equity securities issued in such equity financing equal to the note balance divided by the equity price in such
equity financing and |
| · | immediately prior to the consummation of a qualified de-SPAC transaction, the convertible notes shall
automatically convert, in whole, into shares of common stock of the Company thereby entitling the lender to receive a number of shares
equal to (i) 2.75, multiplied by the outstanding principal under each convertible note, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon,
divided by (ii) $10.00. |
Additionally, pursuant to
the respective convertible note purchase agreements, the Company may prepay the 2023 and 2024 Convertible Notes in cash without the consent
of the holders, at an amount equal to the balance of the note before maturity.
As of March 31, 2024, the
fair value of the 2023 and 2024 Convertible Notes was $35.9 million and $1.8 million, respectively, and the corresponding change in fair

million. The fair value of the 2023 Convertible Notes as of December 31, 2023 was $31.5 million.
7. Share-Based
Compensation
On August 12, 2021, the Company
adopted the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The total restricted stock units (“RSUs”) granted under the
Plan as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was 8,338,438. The awards have a four year service requirement with a one-year cliff
vesting starting on the employment date and are subject to the Liquidity Event provision defined below.
As of March 31, 2024 and December
31, 2023, the Company had 39,883,388 shares of restricted stock awards outstanding with the Company’s founders with a ten-year service
requirements starting on the day of the Liquidity Event (defined below) (the “Founder Restricted Shares”) and 360,290 restricted
shares outstanding with a former employee, in which the service requirement had been deemed met on the grant date (together with the Founder
Restricted Shares, the “Restricted Shares”). The Company’s 40,243,678 outstanding Restricted Shares participate on par
with common shares in all distributions from the Company, as the holders of these restricted shares are entitled to non-forfeitable dividend
rights. Each of the RSUs and Restricted Shares is subject to a change of control provision; an effective registration statement under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”); a direct listing on the Nasdaq Global Select Market or New
York Stock Exchange; or the Company’s completion of a merger or consolidation with a SPAC whereby the surviving company’s
common stock are publicly traded in a public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act (collectively,
the “Liquidity Events”).
The summary of nonvested RSUs
and Restricted Shares whose vesting is subject to the achievement of a Liquidity Event for the period ended March 31, 2024 is disclosed
below:

The aggregate unrecognized
compensation expense for these awards whose vesting is subject to the achievement of a Liquidity Event is $176.1 million as of March 31,
2024.
The vesting of these RSUs
and Restricted Shares is contingent upon the Liquidity Events that are considered not probable of occurring until it actually occurs,
therefore no share-based compensation expense will be recognized until any of the Liquidity Events are achieved.
8. Income
Taxes
The Company’s
income tax provision is computed based on the federal statutory rate and the average state statutory rates, net of the related
federal benefit. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $1.2 million
and income tax benefit of $0.2 million, respectively.
The Company’s estimate
of the realizability of the deferred tax asset is dependent on estimates of projected future levels of taxable income. In analyzing future
taxable income levels, the Company considered all evidence currently available, both positive and negative. Accordingly, as of March
31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company no longer maintains a valuation allowance outside of the Australia and India jurisdiction.
9. Net
(Loss) Income Per Share
Basic net (loss) income per
share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net (loss) income per share
is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares and, if dilutive, common share equivalents outstanding during the period.
The computation of basic and
diluted net (loss) income per share and weighted-average shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding during the periods presented
is as follows:

There were no dividends declared
or accumulated on the common shares during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. The Company applies the two-class method
to its Restricted Shares, which contains non-forfeitable dividend rights and thereby meets the definition of participating securities,
which requires earnings available to common stockholders for the period to be allocated between common stock and participating securities
based upon their respective rights to receive dividends as if all earnings for the period had been distributed. Net loss is not allocated
to participating securities in accordance with the contractual terms. The Company’s weighted average restricted shares outstanding
was 40,243,678 for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. The Company excluded the following securities, presented
based on amounts outstanding at each period end, from the computation of diluted net (loss) income per share attributable to common stockholders
for the periods indicated, as including them would have had an anti-dilutive effect:

The warrants of 873,618 are in-the-money during the three months ended March 31, 2024, however, are not considered exercised as the Company
is in a net loss position.. The warrants of 873,618 are out-of-the money during the three-months ended March 31, 2023. Therefore, all
warrants are excluded from the dilutive EPS calculation. |
(2) | RSUs are subject to the vesting condition under the Liquidity Event, as discussed in Note 7 – Share
Based Compensation. As these securities are considered as contingently issuable shares where the contingency has not been met at the end
of the reporting period, they are excluded from the dilutive net income (loss) per share calculation for the periods presented. |
(3) | Contingencies underlying contingent consideration payable to In2vate was not met as of the end of the
reporting period. Therefore, these shares have been excluded from the dilutive net (loss) income per share calculation for the periods

three months ended March 31, 2024. Therefore, they are excluded from the dilutive EPS calculation. |
(5) | Restricted Shares and Loan Restructuring Shares were excluded from dilutive earnings per share calculation
for the three months ended March 31, 2024 as the impact of including such shares would be anti-dilutive. |
10. Payroll

filed employment payroll tax returns for any period from inception through December 31, 2020. The federal and state withholding tax,
employer payroll taxes, penalties, and interest liability from inception of the Company through December 31, 2023 and related penalties
and interest were recorded within Payroll Taxes Payable on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The total liability was $3.0 million

12. Commitments
and Contingencies
Contingencies
The Company evaluates for
any potential impact of loss contingencies that are probable and reasonably estimable. As of March 31, 2024, there were no loss contingencies
recorded.
While the Company does not
anticipate that the resolution of any ongoing matters will have a material impact on its results of operations, financial condition, or
cash flows, it is important to note that the ultimate outcome of these matters remains uncertain. In the event of an unfavorable resolution
of one or more of these contingencies, it could have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or
cash flows.
The Company will continue
to monitor these matters and disclose any significant developments or changes in future financial statements as necessary.
Purchase Commitments
The Company entered into a
long-term software licensing contract with a major customer that commenced in 2018 and is set to expire in June 2024, subject to an additional
5-year renewal. The contract has an annual value of $50.3 million. As part of the agreement, the Company installs its software licenses
on the customer’s servers, and in exchange, the customer pays an annual fee for access to the software license and related maintenance
services. Additionally, the Company has a separate contract with the customer for the purchase of the customer’s end-user data. This data
is essential for the Company’s development and utilization of its next-generation artificial intelligence platform. The annual price for
this data acquisition amounts to approximately $30.0 million.
The sale of the software license
and the purchase of the customer’s end-user data are treated as distinct and independent transactions. Furthermore, the software licensing
contract and the data acquisition contract can be canceled individually without affecting the other contract, with the data acquisition
contract requiring twelve months notice for cancellation by either party. Due to the distinct nature of the data acquisition from the
customer, which is obtained at fair value and used primarily for research and development purposes, the revenue generated from the software
licensing contract is recognized on a gross basis. Conversely, the expenses associated with the data acquisition are also recognized on
a gross basis and classified as research and development expenses.
Financial Advisor Agreement
The Company has a financial
advisory agreement in place with a designated financial advisor to assist with any future equity fundraising activities. According to
the terms of the agreement, the financial advisor will receive compensation based on the following structure:
For equity raises comprising
less than a majority of the Company’s equity capitalization, the financial advisor will be entitled to a fee equal to 5.0% of the gross
proceeds generated from the equity raise.
In the event of an equity
raise comprising a majority of the Company’s equity capitalization, the financial advisor’s compensation will be calculated based on the
greater of the following:
| i) | A flat fee of $3.5 million. |
| ii) | 1.0% of the aggregate value of the equity raise up to $1.0 billion, plus an additional 1.5% of the portion
of the aggregate value of the equity raise that exceeds $1.0 billion. |
These compensation terms outline
the financial advisor’s entitlement to fees based on the successful completion of equity fundraising activities. For non-equity transactions
the specific fee is open to negotiation on a transaction-by-transaction basis to ensure that the financial advisor’s compensation aligns
with the scale and significance of the equity raise, considering the Company’s equity capitalization and the total value of the funds
raised.
On March 27, 2024, the Company
and the financial advisor amended the financial advisory agreement to provide that, in lieu of payment in cash of the full amount of any
advisory fees or other fees or expenses owed under the financial advisor agreement, the Company will pay the financial advisor $7,500,000
in cash or NewCo shares, at the sole discretion of the Company. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the financial advisor’s
fees were not yet probable of being paid, nor was the amount of the payment determinable. As a result, no amount is accrued within the
condensed consolidated balance sheets at either period, for the potential compensation outlined within the financial advisor agreement.
Litigation
The Company is involved in
litigation arising in the normal course of business. Such litigation is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial
condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
13. Related-Party
Transactions
Receivable from related
party
The Company had outstanding
receivables from Directors in the amount of $0.5 million as of December 31, 2023, related to expenses that the Company incurred on behalf
of the Directors.
In February 2024, the Company
collected the full amount of the related party receivable from each Director. There is no outstanding balance as of March 31, 2024.
14. Subsequent
Events
The Company has evaluated
all events subsequent to March 31, 2024 and through May 15, 2024, which represents the date these condensed consolidated financial
statements were available to be issued. The Company is not aware of any subsequent event that would require recognition or disclosure
in the condensed consolidated financial statements other than those described below.
Closing of the Merger
and Related Transactions
On April 16, 2024, (the “Closing
Date”), the Company consummated the previously announced merger contemplated by the Merger Agreement dated April 27, 2023 (the “SPAC
Transaction”). Refer to Note 1 for additional detail.
The business combination is
being accounted for as a reverse recapitalization, in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under this method of accounting, although Arrowroot issued
shares for outstanding equity interests of iLearningEngines, Inc. in the business combination, Arrowroot is treated as the “acquired”
company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the business combination is treated as the equivalent of the Company issuing stock
for the net assets of Arrowroot, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of Arrowroot is stated at historical cost, with no
goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the business combination will be those of the Company.
In connection with the closing
of the business combination, Arrowroot Acquisition Corp. (NASDAQ: ARRW) changed its name to “iLearningEngines, Inc.”
(“NewCo”) and is listed on the NASDAQ under the new ticker symbol “AILE”.
On the Closing Date, the
following transactions occurred pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement:
| (i) | Current ILE stockholders own 109,684,738 shares of NewCo common stock on the Closing Date in exchange
for former ILE shares; |
| (ii) | Former Arrowroot public stockholders own 638,977 shares of NewCo common stock on the Closing Date in exchange
for former Arrowroot public shares; |
| (iii) | Current and former affiliates of Arrowroot own 8,674,617 shares of NewCo common stock on the Closing Date
in exchange for former Arrowroot convertible and promissory notes; |
| (iv) | Convertible note investors (not including affiliates of Arrowroot) own 11,551,784 shares of NewCo
common stock on the Closing Date in exchange for former ILE convertible notes (see “Convertible Note Purchase Agreement” below
for portion of convertible notes entered into on Closing Date); |
| (v) | The 2020 Lender, 2021 Lender and 2023 Lender own 4,419,998 shares of NewCo common stock on the Closing
Date based on amendments to term loans (see “Amendments to 2020, 2021 and 2023 Term Loan” below for further details). Upon
repayment of the term loans on April 18, 2024, 815,999 of the shares of NewCo common stock were cancelled. |
Convertible Note Purchase
Agreement
In connection with the SPAC
Transaction, the Company issued and converted $29.4 million of 2024 Convertible Notes. The Company issued $0.7 million of convertible
notes on March 21, 2024, and $28.7 million of convertible notes on the Closing Date (collectively, the “2024 Convertible Notes”).
The 2024 Convertible Notes were converted to 8,089,532 common shares of NewCo on the Closing Date.
Negotiation of Payables
to Third-Party Vendors
The Company negotiated concessions
on accounts payable to other third-party vendors in several forms. The form of concessions include: (1) providing a discount to the total
amount payable, (2) the option to settle certain payables in common stock, and (3) entering into a deferred payment agreement for certain
payables. The concessions became effective on the Closing Date.
Proposed 2024 Equity
Incentive Plan
The Company proposed a new
equity incentive plan for 2024 and the plan was approved on April 1, 2024.
East West Bank Financing
On April 17, 2024 (the “Loan
Closing Date”), Legacy iLearningEngines entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Revolving Loan Agreement”),
by and among Legacy iLearningEngines as borrower (“Borrower”), the lenders party thereto (the “Lenders”) and East
West Bank, as administrative agent and collateral agent for the Lenders (“Agent”). The Revolving Loan Agreement provides for
(i) a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $40.0 million and (ii) an uncommitted accordion facility allowing
the Borrower to increase the revolving commitments by an additional principal amount of $20.0 million at Borrower’s option and upon
Agent’s approval (collectively, the “Revolving Loans”). Borrower drew $40.0 million in Revolving Loans on the Loan Closing
Date, which was used (x) to repay in full Borrower’s Term Loans and (y) for general corporate purposes.
The obligations under the
Revolving Loan Agreement are secured by a perfected security interest in substantially all of the Borrower’s assets except for certain
customary excluded property pursuant to the terms of the Revolving Loan Agreement. On the Loan Closing Date, the Company and In2Vate,
L.L.C., an Oklahoma limited liability company (the “Guarantors”) and wholly-owned subsidiary of Legacy iLearningEngines entered
into a Guaranty and Suretyship Agreement (the “Guaranty”) with the Agent, pursuant to which the Guarantors provided a guaranty
of Borrower’s obligations under the Revolving Loan Agreement and provided a security interest in substantially all of the Guarantors’
assets except for certain customary excluded property pursuant to the terms of the Guaranty.
The interest rate applicable
to the Revolving Loans is Adjusted Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) (with an interest period of 1 or 3 months
at the Borrower’s option) plus 3.50% per annum, subject to an Adjusted Term SOFR floor of 4.00%.
The maturity date of the Revolving
Loans is April 17, 2027. The Revolving Loan Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and
negative covenants, including, among other things, restrictions on indebtedness, liens, investments, mergers, dispositions, prepayment
of other indebtedness and dividends and other distributions. Borrower is also required to comply with the following financial covenants,
which are more fully set forth in the Revolving Loan Agreement (i) minimum liquidity, (ii) minimum revenue performance to plan, (iii)
minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and (iv) maximum leverage ratio.
The Revolving Loan Agreement
also includes customary events of default, including failure to pay principal, interest or certain other amounts when due, material inaccuracy
of representations and warranties, violation of covenants, specified cross-default and cross-acceleration to other material indebtedness,
certain bankruptcy and insolvency events, certain undischarged judgments, material invalidity of guarantees or grant of security interest,
material adverse effect and change of control, in certain cases subject to certain thresholds and grace periods. If one or more events
of default occurs and continues beyond any applicable cure period, the Agent may, with the consent of the Lenders holding a majority of
the loans and commitments under the facility, or will, at the request of such Lenders, terminate the commitments of the Lenders to make
further loans and declare all of the obligations of the Company under the Revolving Loan Agreement to be immediately due and payable.

On April 27, 2023, we entered
into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (as amended, the “Merger Agreement”) with Arrowroot Acquisition Corp.
(“ARRW”), a Delaware corporation and ARAC Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of ARRW (“Merger

2024 Convertible Note
On March 21, 2024, Legacy iLearningEngines
entered into the 2024 convertible note purchase agreement with an investor pursuant to which, among other things, Legacy iLearningEngines
issued and sold the Initial 2024 Convertible Note in an aggregate principal amount of $700,000. On the Business Combination date, Legacy
iLearningEngines entered into a convertible note purchase agreement (the “2024 Convertible Note Purchase Agreement”), with
certain investors (collectively, the “2024 Convertible Note Investors”), pursuant to which, among other things, Legacy iLearningEngines
issued and sold to the 2024 Convertible Note Investors convertible notes due in October 2026, (“2024 Convertible Notes”) with
aggregate principal amount of $29,414,500 (including the initial $700,000 note). Each 2024 convertible note accrued interest at a rate
of (i) 15% per annum until the aggregate accrued interest thereunder equals 25% of the principal amount of such note, and (ii) 8% per
annum thereafter. Immediately prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, each 2024 convertible note automatically converted
into shares of Legacy iLearningEngines thereby entitling the holder thereof to receive, in connection with the consummation of the Business
Combination, a number of shares New iLearningEngines Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to (i) 2.75, multiplied
by the outstanding principal under such convertible note, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, divided by (ii) $10.00. The price
per share at which the Principal (as defined in the 2024 Convertible Note Purchase Agreement), together with accrued but unpaid interest,
on each 2024 convertible note converts into incentive shares (as defined in the 2024 Convertible Note Purchase Agreement) is referred
to as the “Conversion Price” herein.
In the event that the VWAP (as
defined in the 2024 Convertible Note Purchase Agreement) of the New iLearningEngines Common Stock over the ten (10) trading days immediate
preceding November 30, 2024 (the “Reference Date”) is below the Conversion Price, then the 2024 convertible note shall be
converted into shares of New iLearningEngines Common Stock, together with a make-whole payment equal to a number of additional incentive
shares (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to (i) the Conversion Price, divided by the Reference Price (as defined below),
minus (ii) one (1). “Reference Price” means the greater of (i) the VWAP of the New iLearningEngines Common Stock over the
ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the Reference Date and (ii) $1.00. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the maximum number of shares
issuable pursuant to the 2024 convertible notes shall not exceed 10,000,000 incentive shares.
In connection with the issuance
of the 2024 convertible notes, on March 21, 2024, (i) Legacy iLearningEngines entered into a joinder to the Amended and Restated Registration
Rights Agreement with each of the 2024 Convertible Note Investors, and (ii) the 2024 Convertible Note Investors entered into subordination
agreements in favor of any holder of senior debt, a form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.31 and incorporated herein by reference.
A description of the 2024 convertible
notes is included in Supplement No. 3 under the heading “Recent Developments – 2024 Convertible Notes”, which is incorporated
herein by reference.
Revolving Loan Agreement
On April 17, 2024 (the “Loan
Closing Date”), Legacy iLearningEngines entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Revolving Loan Agreement”),
by and among Legacy iLearningEngines as borrower (“Borrower”), the lenders party thereto (the “Lenders”) and East
West Bank, as administrative agent and collateral agent for the Lenders (“Agent”). The Revolving Loan Agreement provides for
(i) a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $40.0 million and (ii) an uncommitted accordion facility allowing
the Borrower to increase the revolving commitments by an additional principal amount of $20.0 million at Borrower’s option and upon
Agent’s approval (collectively, the “Revolving Loans”). Borrower drew $40.0 million in Revolving Loans on the Loan Closing
Date, which was used (x) to repay in full Borrower’s existing indebtedness under the (i) Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of
December 30, 2020, between Legacy iLearningEngines and Venture Lending & Leasing IX, Inc., (ii) Loan and Security Agreement, dated
as of October 21, 2021, between Legacy iLearningEngines, and Venture Lending & Leasing IX, Inc. and WTI Fund X, Inc. and (iii) Loan
and Security Agreement, dated as of October 31, 2023, between Legacy iLearningEngines and WTI Fund X, Inc. (the “WTI Loan Agreements”)
and which will be used for (y) for general corporate purposes.
The obligations under the Revolving
Loan Agreement are secured by a perfected security interest in substantially all of the Borrower’s assets except for certain customary
excluded property pursuant to the terms of the Revolving Loan Agreement. On the Loan Closing Date, the Company and In2Vate, L.L.C., an Oklahoma limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of Legacy iLearningEngines (the “Guarantors”) entered into
a Guaranty and Suretyship Agreement (the “Guaranty”) with the Agent, pursuant to which the Guarantors provided a guaranty
of Borrower’s obligations under the Revolving Loan Agreement and provided a security interest in substantially all of the Guarantors’
assets except for certain customary excluded property pursuant to the terms of the Guaranty.
The interest rate applicable
to the Revolving Loans is Adjusted Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) (with an interest period of 1 or 3 months at the Borrower’s option) plus 3.50% per
annum, subject to an Adjusted Term SOFR floor of 4.00%.
The maturity date of the Revolving
Loans is April 17, 2027. The Revolving Loan Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and
negative covenants, including, among other things, restrictions on indebtedness, liens, investments, mergers, dispositions, prepayment
of other indebtedness and dividends and other distributions. Borrower is also required to comply with the following financial covenants,
which are more fully set forth in the Revolving Loan Agreement (i) minimum liquidity, (ii) minimum revenue performance to plan, (iii)
minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and (iv) maximum leverage ratio.
The Revolving Loan Agreement
also includes customary events of default, including failure to pay principal, interest or certain other amounts when due, material inaccuracy
of representations and warranties, violation of covenants, specified cross-default and cross-acceleration to other material indebtedness,
certain bankruptcy and insolvency events, certain undischarged judgments, material invalidity of guarantees or grant of security interest,
material adverse effect and change of control, in certain cases subject to certain thresholds and grace periods. If one or more events
of default occurs and continues beyond any applicable cure period, the Agent may, with the consent of the Lenders holding a majority of
the loans and commitments under the facility, or will, at the request of such Lenders, terminate the commitments of the Lenders to make
further loans and declare all of the obligations of the Company under the Revolving Loan Agreement to be immediately due and payable.
Prepayment of Term Loan
On April 18, 2024, the Company
prepaid the full amount of the Amended Term Loan using a combination of $22.4 million cash and 159,379 shares of NewCo common stock. Based on the timing
of the prepayment, 815,999 Loan Restructuring Shares were canceled.
Overview
iLearningEngines is an out-of-the-box AI platform
that empowers customers to “productize” their institutional knowledge and generate and infuse insights in the flow-of-work
to drive mission critical business outcomes. iLearningEngines’ customers “productize” their institutional knowledge
by transforming it into actionable intellectual property that enhances outcomes for employees, customers and other stakeholders. Our platform
enables enterprises to build intelligent “Knowledge Clouds” that incorporate large volumes of structured and unstructured
information across disparate internal and external systems, and to automate organizational processes that leverage these Knowledge Clouds
to improve performance. Our Learning Experience Platform addresses the corporate learning market and our Information Intelligence Platform
addresses the information management, analytics and automation markets. We combine our platforms with vertically focused capabilities
and data models to operationalize AI and automation to effectively and efficiently address critical challenges facing our customers. Our
customers utilize our platform to analyze and address employee knowledge gaps, provide personalized cognitive assistants or chatbots,
and make predictive decisions based on real-time insights.
We serve more than 1,000 enterprise end customers,
with over 4.7 million licensed users across 12+ industry verticals. Our revenue by end licensed user industry vertical is set forth
below:
Other includes customers in the oil &
gas, aviation, retail, automobile, utilities, government, and logistics industries.
Our customers are broadly distributed geographically
with a focus on North America and India. Our revenue by customer geography is shown below:
With respect to the Company’s disaggregation
of revenue by customer geography, geography is primarily determined based on the location of the customer identified in the contract.
As described in the Technology Partner policy note in Note 2 of the unaudited financials for the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company enters
contracts with the Technology Partner through which the Technology Partner purchases and integrates the ILE platform into the Technology
Partner’s own software solution provided to one of the Technology Partner’s customers. In this type of contractual arrangement,
the Company identifies the Technology Partner as its customer. In contractual arrangements in which the Technology Partner is identified
as the customer, the Technology Partner’s end customer may or may not be known by the Company. In cases in which the Technology
Partner’s customer is known to the Company, the geography is determined based on the location of the Technology Partner’s
customer and conversely, in cases in which the Technology Partner’s customer is not known, the customer geography is determined
based on the geography of the Technology Partner.
We provide access to our platform through software
licenses that grant our customers the right to use our proprietary software and access to our maintenance and support services. Most of
the value of our contracts relates to software licenses for the use of our software and related maintenance and support, but we also allocate
a portion of the consideration to implementation services. Nearly all of our revenues are generated from long term maintenance and support
agreements, which are typically one to three years in length and contain provisions to auto-renew for one-year periods. As a result
of our deep integration within the operations of our clients and our multi-period maintenance and support agreements, our business model
provides us with significant visibility into our future performance and considerable predictability of our results.
Pricing for our contracts is determined based
on scale, use cases, usage patterns of our customers and strategic value to us, as well as the amount of support we expect will be required.
Therefore, our pricing is highly variable. We offer user licenses for both Experts and end users (“Learners”). Experts are
the designated “gatekeepers” within our customers’ organizations that are granted content augmentation capabilities
and are provided with the ability to create and distribute content to improve outcomes. Learners utilize the platform for the consumption
of learning and other content. Expert licenses are priced higher since they require more consistent ongoing support from us.
The following contracted customers accounted for
more than 10% of our revenue in the periods shown below:

As of March 31, 2024, we generated $125 million
of revenue, representing 33% growth over the prior year, with 69% gross margins. Our near-term profitability will be affected mainly
by our ability to grow revenue, the gross margins we can achieve on sales, and our ability to control our selling, general and administrative
and research and development (“R&D”) expenses while strategically investing in our growth and solution capabilities.
We expect that our cost of revenue will increase on an absolute basis over the next few quarters as a result of implementation and
dedicated application and content support for newly added customers to ensure that our customers are able to increase engagement
and optimizing the value of our products. Our sales strategy includes leveraging channel partners with significant domain expertise to
provide us with access to new customers, verticals and markets, and our direct salesforce has proven to be effective in expanding our
presence within our customers. Over time, we intend to prioritize our growth within industry verticals and geographies that we believe
will provide the greatest profitability prospects for us over the longer term.
Key Performance Metrics
We regularly review the following performance
metrics to evaluate our business, identify trends affecting our business, prepare financial projections, and make strategic decisions.
The calculation of these metrics may differ from other similarly titled metrics used by other companies, securities analysts or investors.
Annual Recurring Revenue. Annual
Recurring Revenue (“ARR”) is defined as the annualized recurring value of all active maintenance and support contracts at
the end of a reporting period. We believe ARR is useful for assessing the performance of our recurring maintenance and support revenue
base and identifying trends affecting our business. ARR mitigates fluctuations due to seasonality, contract term, sales mix, and revenue
recognition timing resulting from revenue recognition methodologies under GAAP. ARR should be viewed independently of revenue as
it is an operating measure and is not intended to be combined with or to replace GAAP revenue.

ARR | |
$ | 478,941 | | |
$ | 357,282 | |
Net Dollar Retention. Net
Dollar Retention (“NDR”) is an operational performance measure that we use to assess our client retention and its dollar
impact on our business. We define Net Dollar Retention (“NDR”) as the ARR in dollars generated in the current period by clients
that existed in the prior comparable period divided by the ARR in dollars by those same clients in the prior period. NDR illustrates
the impact of upgrades, downgrades and cancellations in the current period on the existing client base. Since NDR does not factor in
revenue from clients acquired in the current period and includes any churn from existing contracted customers, we believe it is an accurate
measure of client retention. For the avoidance of doubt, NDR does not exclude prior year contracted customers that were not retained
in the current year. Our NDR has varied between 125% and 132% over the periods presented. We intend to continue to employ a “land
and expand” strategy which will help grow our NDR, but NDR may also begin to be affected by the maturation of our existing client
base which could stabilize their dollar spend with us.
NDR is calculated as the dollar value of recurring
revenue from existing clients at the end of the prior period, plus the current period’s dollar impact of upsells or cross-sells
from the prior period’s existing clients, minus the current period’s dollar impact of churn or downgrades from the prior period’s
existing clients, divided by prior period recurring revenues from existing clients.
The dollar impact of upsells or cross-sells is
calculated as the sum of incremental recurring revenue between the end of the prior period and the end of the current period from the
prior period’s existing clients that expanded usage of our products resulting in incremental recurring revenues earned in the current
period.
The dollar impact of churn or downgrades is calculated
as the difference in recurring revenue between the end of the prior period and the end of the current period from the prior period’s
existing clients that have decreased in usage or are no longer revenue contributing customers.

The increase in NDR for the 3-month period ended
March 31, 2024 as compared to the 3-month period ended March 31, 2023 was the result of increased spend on learning automation, adoption
of integrated school tutoring solution and AI driven work automation by customers who had decreased spending during the pandemic.
Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted
EBITDA is a performance measure that we use to assess our operating performance and the operating leverage within our business. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net (loss) income, before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, non-capitalizable transaction
costs, stock-based compensation, change in fair value of warrant liability, change in fair value of convertible notes and loss on debt
extinguishment, and other non-operating income and expenses. We monitor Adjusted EBITDA as a non-GAAP financial measure to supplement
the financial information we present in accordance with GAAP to provide investors with additional information regarding our financial
results. We expect Adjusted EBITDA to fluctuate in future periods as we continue to invest in our business to achieve greater scale and
efficiencies.
We report our financial results in accordance
with GAAP but management believes that Adjusted EBITDA provides investors with additional useful information in evaluating our performance.
Adjusted EBITDA is a financial measure that is not required by or presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA,
when taken together with our financial results presented in accordance with GAAP, provides meaningful supplemental information regarding
our operating performance and facilitates internal comparisons of our historical operating performance on a more consistent basis by excluding
certain items that may not be indicative of our business, results of operations or outlook. In particular, we believe that the use of
Adjusted EBITDA is helpful to our investors as it is a measure used by management in assessing the health of our business and evaluating
our operating performance, as well as for internal planning and forecasting purposes.
Adjusted EBITDA is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered
in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. Some of these limitations include that: (i)
it does not properly reflect capital commitments to be paid in the future; (ii) although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges,
the underlying assets may need to be replaced and Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect these capital expenditures; (iii) it does not reflect
other non-operating expenses; (iv) it does not reflect tax payments that may represent a reduction in cash available to us; (vii) it does
not reflect transaction costs which were capitalized. In addition, our use of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled
measures of other companies because they may not calculate Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner, limiting its usefulness as a comparative
measure. Because of these limitations, when evaluating our performance, you should consider Adjusted EBITDA alongside other financial
measures, including our net (loss) income and our other results stated in accordance with GAAP.
The following table presents a reconciliation
of Adjusted EBITDA to net (loss) income, the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP, for the periods
presented:

Key Factors Affecting Our Performance
We believe that our performance and future success
depend on several factors that present significant opportunities, risks and challenges for us.
Ability to attract and engage new customers. To
grow our business, we must attract additional clients in the industries we currently serve and attract new customers in new industries.
We added 301,000 new licensed users in the three months ended March 31, 2024. In some of our newer industry verticals, we will need to
further develop tailored solutions to best serve their interests. Engaging with new customers in any industry generally involves longer
sales cycles and developing specialized industry solutions will require additional R&D expenses.
Ability to expand within our existing customer
relationships. We have significant opportunities to further expand sales to our existing customer base,
including expanding into new divisions and adding additional users. Our sales strategy is product-led and focuses on business units within
companies, which we believe lends itself to expansion within organizations by demonstrating effective outcomes for our customers. As companies
continue to embrace the power of our AI and automation tools, we target additional use cases across their enterprise. We intend to focus
on these opportunities to expand our presence within our existing customers over time. Our business and results of operations will depend
on our ability to continue to drive higher usage rates and new use cases within our existing customer base.
Ability to expand our geographic
footprint. We have demonstrated the value of our solutions across many different use cases in a variety of verticals, and we
believe that there are many geographic markets in the U.S. and around the world that are currently underpenetrated that can
benefit from our solutions. However, our growth could be affected if we are unable to establish effective channel partner
relationships in our target geographies on commercially reasonable terms or at all, if our solutions are not as well received in
these new markets, or if competition or cultural norms impede our ability to penetrate these markets.
Adoption rate of AI-driven solutions. Our
ability to grow our customer base and drive adoption of our platform is affected by overall demand levels for AI-assisted learning, automation,
and information intelligence solutions. As advanced “intelligent” technology becomes increasingly critical to business operations,
we believe the need for AI-enhanced development solutions, particularly an integrated platform such as ours, will increase. However, our
growth could be affected if AI solutions are not embraced rapidly or are affected by some of the actual or perceived shortcomings of AI.
Potential Merger and Acquisition. We
intend to complement our organic growth by pursuing strategic and tuck-in acquisition opportunities. We believe we can acquire attractive
established customer bases in new markets and industry subsectors where we can leverage data sets and create new or better curriculums.
However, there is no guarantee that these potential transactions can be completed on commercially reasonable terms or at all. Additionally,
these acquisitions may divert management’s attention and require meaningful integration efforts, which could impact our performance.
Public company costs. Following
the consummation of the business combination, iLearningEngines was deemed the accounting acquirer and the business combination was accounted
for as a reverse recapitalization. As a result of the business combination, iLearningEngines became the successor to an SEC-registered and
Nasdaq-listed company, which will require us to hire additional personnel and implement procedures and processes to address public company
regulatory requirements and customary practices. We expect to incur additional annual expenses as a public company for, among other things,
directors’ and officers’ liability insurance, director fees, and additional internal and external accounting, legal and administrative
resources.
Key Components of Statement of Operations
Revenue
We generate our revenue primarily from software
licenses for use of our proprietary software and related maintenance and support.
Implementation services
All customers require implementation services
prior to being able to use the iLearningEngines platform. To date iLearningEngines has outsourced these services to its technology partner
(“Technology Partner”) who has been trained to provide the implementation services. Implementation services generally take one
to three months and consist of the phases we follow as part of our customer onboarding process. We are the principal in the delivery
of implementation services.
The implementation services do not involve significant
customization or creating new software functionality. Instead, the services mainly focus on configuration and mapping customer data with
the required attributes within the software platform to ensure the platform’s built-in functionalities can be utilized by the customer.
Revenues from implementations are recognized over time as such services are performed using an input method of efforts expended, compared
to total estimated efforts to complete the project.
Combined software license and maintenance
The combined software license and maintenance
performance obligation relates to the license to our AI platform and related maintenance services (including critical support functions
and updates) provided over the license term. The software license to the AI platform is not considered distinct from the maintenance services,
because the customer cannot derive the intended value from the software without ongoing critical support services and updates that are
provided by the maintenance services. We recognize revenue from the combined software license and maintenance performance obligation ratably
over the contract term beginning on the date that the software license is delivered to the customer and related maintenance services are
made available, as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits of the combined software license and maintenance performance
obligation. Contracts with customers typically include a fixed amount of consideration and are generally cancellable with 24 months’
notice. We typically invoice customers quarterly in advance for our software license and maintenance services upon execution of the initial
contract or subsequent renewal.
A contract’s transaction price, which is
generally a fixed fee in our arrangements, is allocated to each performance obligation and recognized as revenue as the respective performance
obligation is satisfied. Our process for determining standalone selling price (“SSP”) involves significant management judgment since our performance obligations are
not sold separately. In determining the SSP of implementation services, we estimate the cost of providing the services and add a reasonable
margin. Our cost estimates are primarily based on historical cost data for similar implementation projects. The SSP of the combined software
license and maintenance performance obligation uses the residual approach to estimate SSP as we sell our AI platform and related maintenance
services to different customers at a highly variable range of amounts.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue is comprised of expenses related
to customer support and fees paid to third parties. We have level 1 support related to helpdesk, application and content support. These
are variable costs that are linked to the number of active contracts. Application support in cost of revenue refers to application support
and maintenance activities including integration of iLearningEngines into enterprise systems, process workflow configurations, issue triage,
quality assurance and upgrade rollout support. Content support includes support provided for business operations on content maintenance,
new content onboarding, SME support, ongoing re-training of AI models.
Operating Expenses
Our operating expenses consist of selling, general
and administrative expenses and R&D expenses.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses primarily
consist of employee-related compensation, including stock-based compensation, for management and administrative functions, including our
finance and accounting, legal, and people teams. Selling, general and administrative expenses also include certain professional services
fees, insurance, our facilities costs, and other general overhead costs that support our operations.
Our sales strategy is comprised of two main constituents:
our direct sales team and our channel partners. Our direct sales team is tasked with both acquiring direct clients in established verticals
and acquiring new channel partners in expansion markets. We leverage our channel partners to generate leads in new verticals and geographies
which we then scale through our direct sales force. Our sales team is supported by engineers with deep technical expertise and responsibility
for pre-sales technical support, solutions for engineering for our customers and technical training for our channel partners.
We generate customer leads, accelerate sales opportunities
and build brand awareness through our marketing programs and through our channel partner relationships. Our marketing programs target
the business units within companies rather than their purchasing, human resources or administrative departments to drive sales by demonstrating
the impact of our product capabilities on results. Our principal marketing programs include webinars, roadshows, exhibitions and events
that we sponsor, cooperative marketing efforts with channel partners, and use of our website.
Research and Development Expenses
A critical part of our development efforts in
AI is the data to train AI. R&D expense primarily consist of compensation costs, for employees in engineering, design and product
development and maintenance, outsourced costs related to development partners, external contractors, data purchase cost and the allocation
of other R&D costs. To date, our total spend on data purchases is over $160 million. Costs incurred by us between establishment
of technological feasibility and the point at which the product is ready for general release are capitalized, subject to their recoverability,
and amortized over the economic life of the related products. As of March 31, 2024, no costs have been capitalized.
Interest Expense
Interest expense consists primarily of interest
expense, amortization of debt issuance cost incurred under our long-term debt facility.
Change in Fair Value of Warrant Liability
Change in fair value of warrant liability consists
of gains or losses from change in fair value of warrant liabilities.
Change in Fair Value of Convertible Notes
The Company elected the fair value option for
convertible notes. Change in fair value of convertible notes consists of gains or losses from change in fair value of the convertible
notes.
Loss on Debt Extinguishment
The Company entered into an amended debt agreement that caused the current book value of debt to be extinguished and the new debt to be
accounted for using the fair value option. The difference between these two amounts resulted in a loss.
Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes
The provision (benefit) for income taxes represents
the tax expense (benefit) associated with our operations based on the tax laws of the jurisdictions in which we operate.

and operations and support costs related to new accounts.
Gross margin increased to 69.0% for the three
months ended March 31, 2024 compared to 66.4% for the three months ended March 31, 2023, primarily due to the higher dedicated
support needs and related costs being higher in the first year for newly added contracts, which contributes to higher cost as the new
contracts are in implementation stage.

to purchase our stock, which may be exercisable for common or preferred stock in accordance with the terms of the warrants. The warrants
were classified as a liability carried at fair value because there are certain put rights that may obligate us to repurchase the warrants
in the future, based on events that are outside of our control.

$0.2 million, primarily due to the negative change in the fair value of the warrant and convertible notes as well as a loss on
the debt extinguishment related to the WTI debt amendment, which were classified as permanent difference for tax purposes.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our liquidity requirements arise from our working
capital needs, our obligations to make scheduled payments of principal and interest on our indebtedness and our need to fund capital expenditures
to support our current operations and to facilitate growth and expansion, including future acquisitions. We have financed our operations
and expansion with a combination of debt and equity.
On March 31, 2024, we had total shareholders’
deficit of $47.1 million, net of an accumulated deficit of $83.5 million. Our primary sources of liquidity consist of cash totaling
$0.8 million as of March 31, 2024. As of March 31, 2024, we have issued convertible notes with an aggregate principal amount
of $18.1 million. For more information, see “— Liquidity and Capital Resources — Convertible
notes”. On March 27, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement to amend the 2020, 2021 and 2023 term loans (“Term Loan
Amendment”). The Company prepaid the full amount of the term loans on April 18, 2024 in a combination of cash and 159,379 shares
of common stock. For more information, see “— Liquidity and Capital Resources — Credit Facilities”.
We believe these additional sources of liquidity will be sufficient to provide working capital, make principal and interest payments to
support operations and facilitate growth and expansion for the next twelve months.
Our ability to pay dividends on our common stock
is limited by restrictions under the terms of the agreements governing our indebtedness. Subject to the full terms and conditions under
the agreements governing our indebtedness, we may be permitted to make dividends and distributions under such agreements if there is no
event of default.
Our future capital requirements will depend on
many factors, including our global growth rates, our ability to expand our operational footprints in the United States, our ability
to grow our platform through acquisitions and our decisions around future investments required in R&D. We may, in the future,
enter into arrangements to acquire or invest in complementary businesses, products, and technologies. We may be required to seek additional
equity or debt financing. In the event that we require additional financing, we may not be able to raise such financing on terms acceptable
to us or at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital or generate cash flows necessary to expand our operations and invest in
continued innovation, we may not be able to compete successfully, which would harm our business, operations and financial condition.
As of December 31, 2023, the Company maintained a $2.0 million restricted cash balance, and this reserve was not used in the ordinary
course of business. As of March 31, 2024, the $2.0 million restricted cash requirement was waived by the respective lenders.
Purchase Commitments
We entered into a long-term software licensing
contract with a major customer that commenced in 2018 and is set to expire in June 2024, subject to an additional 5-year renewal. The
contract has an annual value of $50.3 million. As part of the agreement, we install our software licenses on the customer’s
servers, and in exchange, the customer pays an annual fee for access to the software license and related maintenance services. Additionally,
we have a separate contract with the customer for the purchase of the customer’s end-user data. This data is essential for our development
and utilization of its next-generation AI platform. The annual price for this data acquisition amounts to approximately $30.0 million.
Credit Facilities
On March 27, 2024, we entered into the Second
Omnibus Amendment to Loan Documents agreement (“Amended Term Loan”) with Venture Lending & Leasing IX and WTI
Fund X, Inc. (collectively, the “Lenders”), to amend the 2020, 2021 and 2023 term loans (collectively the “Term
Loans”). Commencing on April 1, 2024, and continuing on the first day of each consecutive month thereafter through maturity,
we shall pay to the Lenders monthly installments scheduled under the Amended Term Loan according to the modified payment schedule noted.
In exchange for the amendment to payment schedule, the Lenders will receive 1,019,999 shares of iLearningEngines, Inc. (“NewCo”)
shares common stock to be issued upon completion of the SPAC Transaction (the “Loan Restructuring Shares”). In addition, the
Lenders will terminate the outstanding warrants issued in connection with the Term Loans and the respective put rights associated with
each, upon receipt of 3,399,999 shares of NewCo common stock to be issued upon completion of the SPAC Transaction.
If the Company repays the Term Loans on or before
(i) April 15, 2024, then 90% of the Loan Restructuring Shares will be canceled, (ii) May 1, 2024, then 80% of the Loan Restructuring Shares
will be canceled, and (iii) July 1, 2024, then 50% of the Loan Restructuring Shares will be canceled.
In addition, the Amended Term Loan provides that,
if the Company prepays the Term Loans, then at the Company’s option, the Company may prepay 50% of the amount of scheduled but unpaid
payments of interest that would have accrued after the prepayment date by issuing a number of shares of NewCo common stock obtained by
dividing (A) the product of (x) the unpaid scheduled interest payments and (y) 2.75, by (B) the VWAP of NewCo common stock over the seven
(7) trading days immediately preceding the date of issuance. On April 18, 2024, the Company prepaid the full amount of the Amended Term
Loan using a combination of cash and 159,379 shares of NewCo common stock. Based on the timing of the prepayment, 815,999 Loan Restructuring
Shares were canceled.
Convertible Notes
On April 27, 2023, we entered into the 2023
convertible note purchase agreement (the “2023 Convertible Notes”), pursuant to which, among other things, we may issue
and sell to the convertible note investors convertible notes due in October 2025 with aggregate principal amount of up to $50.0
million, of which we have issued and sold convertible notes with aggregate principal amount of $17.4 million, including affiliates of
our Sponsor.
On March 21, 2024 (“Issuance Date”),
the Company entered into the 2024 Convertible Note Purchase Agreement, of which we have issued and sold $0.7 million convertible notes
(the “2024 Convertible Notes”), collectively with the 2023 Convertible Notes referred to as “Convertible Notes”.
The 2024 Convertible Notes mature 30 months after Issuance Date.
The 2024 Convertible Notes include a make-whole
payment following the conversion of any 2024 Convertible Notes through a qualified SPAC combination. Under the make whole provision, with
respect to each common stock converted for 2024 Convertible Notes, a number of additional incentive shares (rounded down to the nearest
whole share) equal to (i) $10.00 (the “Conversion Price”), divided by the greater of (a) the volume-weighted average price
(the “VWAP”) of the NewCo shares over the ten trading days immediately preceding November 30, 2024 (the “Reference Date”)
and (b) $1.00 (the “Reference Price”), minus (ii) one will be issued. The Conversion Price and Reference Price shall be appropriately
adjusted for any stock dividend, stock split, stock combination, recapitalization or other similar transaction during the period beginning
on the date the NewCo shares are issued upon conversion of the 2024 Convertible Notes and ending on the Reference Date. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the maximum number of shares issuable pursuant to the 2024 convertible notes shall not exceed 10,000,000 incentive shares.
Each Convertible Notes accrues interest at a rate
of (i) 15% per annum until the aggregate accrued interest thereunder equals 25% of the principal amount of such note, and (ii) 8%
per annum thereafter. Immediately prior to the consummation of the business combination, each Convertible Notes will automatically convert
into NewCo shares thereby entitling the holder thereof to receive, in connection with the consummation of the business combination, a
number of shares Arrowroot Class A Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to (i) 2.75, multiplied by the
convertible note balance, divided by (ii) $10.00.

Operating Activities
Our largest source of operating cash is payments
received from our customers. Our primary uses of cash from operating activities are R&D and sales and marketing expenses. We have
historically generated negative cash flows and have supplemented working capital requirements primarily through net proceeds from debt.
Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2024 of $3.6 million was primarily related to net working capital
cash outflows of $10.2 million and net loss of $25.9 million adjusted for non-cash adjustments of $32.6 million. The main drivers of the
changes in working capital cash out flows were increases in accounts receivable and receivables from Technology Partner, partially offset
by cash inflows due to an increase in trade payables.
Net cash used in operating activities for the
three months ended March 31, 2023 of $2.2 million was primarily related to our net income of $0.5 million adjusted for
non-cash adjustments of $1.6 million and net cash outflows of $4.2 million provided by changes in our operating assets and liabilities.
Non-cash charges primarily consisted of amortization of debt issuance cost. The main drivers of the changes in operating assets and liabilities were
the accounts receivables and the receivables from Technology Partner. These amounts were partially offset by change in contract asset.
Investing Activities
For the three months ended March 31, 2024
the cash used in investing activities was $0.01 million approximately and was primarily related to purchase of property and equipment.
There was no change to net cash provided by investing
activities for the three months ended March 31, 2023.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities for the
three months ended March 31, 2024 of $2.3 million was primarily related to $3.0 million debt pay down and proceeds from $0.7
million convertible notes.
Net cash provided by financing activities for
the three months ended March 31, 2023 of $2.9 million was primarily related to the $5.0 million in venture debt that we
took from Western Technology Investments in two different tranches offset by the debt taken in previous tranches that we paid down.
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about
Market Risk
We are exposed to market risk in the ordinary
course of our business. Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact our financial position due to adverse changes in financial
market prices and rates. Our market risk exposure is principally the result of fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange
rates.
Interest Rate Risk
We had cash of $0.8 million as of March 31,
2024, which consisted entirely of bank deposits. We do not enter into investments for
trading or speculative purposes and have not used any derivative financial instruments to manage our interest rate risk exposure. As of
March 31, 2024, we had $22.0 million principal outstanding in debt. A hypothetical 10% change in interest rates during the period
presented would not have had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. The Company did not have any investments as of
March 31, 2024.
We had cash of $1.6 million as of March 31,
2023, which consisted entirely of bank deposits. A hypothetical 10% change in interest rates during the period presented would not have
had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
We have operations internationally that are
denominated in foreign currencies, including India rupee, Emirati dirham, and Australia dollar, which subject us to foreign currency
exchange risk. Therefore, we are exposed to foreign exchange rate fluctuations as we convert the financial statements of our foreign
subsidiary into U.S. dollars. Our subsidiary remeasures monetary assets and liabilities at period-end exchange rates, while
non-monetary items are remeasured at historical rates. If there is a change in foreign currency exchange rates, the conversion of
our foreign subsidiary’s financial statements into U.S. dollars would result in a realized gain or loss which is recorded
in our consolidated statements of operations. We do not currently engage in any hedging activity to reduce our potential exposure to
currency fluctuations, although we may choose to do so in the future. A hypothetical 10% change in foreign exchange rates during the
period presented would not have had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Inflation Risk
We do not believe that inflation has had a material
effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operations, other than its impact on the general economy. Nonetheless, if our
costs were to become subject to inflationary pressures, we may not be able to fully offset such higher costs through price increases.
Our inability or failure to do so could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Policies determined to be critical are those policies
that have the most significant impact on our financial statements and require us to use a greater degree of judgment in forming assumptions
or estimates. Judgments are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty, and therefore actual results could differ from our estimates.
Revenue Recognition
In applying the ASC 606 revenue recognition model,
the Company’s determination of whether products and services are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted
for separately versus together, may require significant judgment. The Company’s contracts with customers generally include two performance
obligations, (i) implementation, and (ii) combined software license and maintenance.
In determining the SSP
of implementation services, the Company estimates the cost of providing the services and adds a reasonable margin. The estimates are expected
to change over time as the Company accumulates additional cost data for completed implementations.
In determining the SSP of combined software license
and maintenance performance obligation, the Company uses the residual approach. It sells an AI platform and related maintenance services
to different customers at a highly variable range of amounts. When the Company sells the AI platform and related maintenance services
to customers, it presents the price of the license and maintenance to the customer by quoting both a price a per user per month and per
expert per month. There are a number of factors that affect the per user and per expert prices charged to different customers including,
but not limited to, the customer’s bespoke products which the AI platform is replacing, the complexity of the use case for which
the AI platform is meant to solve, the number of customer systems into which the platform is integrated, the number of dedicated support
personnel required to provide maintenance services, and the outcome of contract negotiations with the customer.
Convertible Notes
The Company’s convertible notes are accounted
under the fair value option election, in which the convertible notes are reported at fair value as of the end of each reporting period,
with changes recognized in the statements of operations.
The
fair value of the convertible notes is estimated using a scenario-based approach which considers various events, the conversion feature
and related payoffs within each scenario. Unobservable (Level 3) inputs and assumptions used in valuation methodologies include management’s
probability assumptions for various conversion scenarios, including estimates of the time until the respective conversion scenarios may
occur, the risk-free interest rate and a discount spread. The risk-free rate is based on the United States Treasury benchmark
yield curves.
Amended Term Loan
The Company’s Amended Term Loan is accounted
under the fair value option election, in which the Amended Term Loan is reported at fair value as of the end of each reporting period,
with changes recognized in the statements of operations.
The fair value of the Amended Term Loan is estimated
using a scenario-based approach which considers various events, the conversion feature and related payoffs within each scenario. Unobservable
(Level 3) inputs and assumptions used in valuation methodologies include management’s probability assumptions for various conversion
scenarios, including the term matched risk-free interest rate, credit rating, and a discount spread.
Warrant Liability
The
fair value of the warrant liability is estimated using an option pricing model. Unobservable (Level 3) inputs and assumptions used in
valuation methodologies include management’s probability assumptions associated with various settlement scenarios, selected volatility
and discount rates, selected guideline public companies, and the risk-free interest rate. The risk-free rate is based on the United States
Treasury benchmark yield curves.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
As an emerging growth company (“EGC”),
the JOBS Act allows us to delay adoption of new or revised accounting pronouncements applicable to public companies until such pronouncements
are applicable to private companies. We have elected to use this extended transition period under the JOBS Act until such time we are
no longer considered to be an EGC.
See Note 2 in the notes to the unaudited
consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this filing for more information about recent accounting pronouncements, the timing
of their adoption, and our assessment, to the extent we have made one, of their potential impact on our financial condition and our results
of operations.
Emerging Growth Company Status
Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts
emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that
a company can choose not to take advantage of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging
growth companies, and any such election to not take advantage of the extended transition period is irrevocable. Arrowroot previously elected
to avail itself of the extended transition period, and following the consummation of the business combination, we will be an emerging
growth company and will take advantage of the benefits of the extended transition period that the emerging growth company status permits.
During the extended transition period, it may be difficult or impossible to compare our financial results with the financial results of
another public company that complies with public company effective dates for accounting standard updates because of the potential differences
in accounting standards used.
We will remain an emerging growth company under
the JOBS Act until the earlier of: (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the closing
of Arrowroot’s initial public offering (i.e., December 31, 2026), (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at
least $1.235 billion, or (c) in which we are deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” under the rules of the SEC,
which means the market value of our common equity that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700.0 million as of the end of the prior
fiscal year’s second fiscal quarter; and (2) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible
debt securities during the prior three-year period.
