EXPLANATORY NOTE 
Subsequent to the issuance of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2023 and as previously disclosed on June 1, 2023, Management determined that the Company’s previously issued unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2023 (the “Q1 2023 Financial Statements”) contained a material accounting error relating to the timing of revenue recognition with respect to certain customer projects. As a result of this error, the Audit Committee determined that the Company’s Q1 2023 Financial Statements should no longer be relied upon and should be restated. In addition, as a result of the error, the Audit Committee initiated a review of the Company’s accounting for revenue recognition and the extent to which these matters affect the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting (the “Review”).

On November 9, 2023, the Company disclosed that although the Review was still ongoing, based on preliminary findings, management had determined that the Company’s previously issued audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Annual Financial Statements”), as well as the Company’s previously issued unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for each of the three months ended March 31, 2022, the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 (collectively, the “2022 Interim Financial Statements” and, together with the 2022 Annual Financial Statements, the “2022 Financial Statements” and, together with the Q1 2023 Financial Statements, the “Affected Financial Statements”), should no longer be relied upon and should be restated due to accounting errors in each of the 2022 Financial Statements relating to revenue recognition.

During the course of the Review, and during the Company's subsequent assessment of its accounting practices, accounting and financial reporting errors were identified. Specifically, errors in timing of revenue recognition relating to incorrect shipping dates, incorrect or unapproved shipping terms, incorrect timing of the transfer of control, and incorrect evaluation of the existence of contracts. As a result, revenue, accounts receivable, contract assets and liabilities, inventory and cost of sales, goodwill, and the tax provision contained errors which resulted in corrections in accounting under U.S. GAAP related to the timing of revenue recognition under certain customer projects. See Restatement Note 1 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A.
We are filing this Amendment No. 1 to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Form 10-Q/A”) for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2023, which was filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on May 9, 2023 (the “Original Filing”), to reflect restatements of the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at March 31, 2022 and March 31 2023, the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2023, and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2023, and the related notes thereto.

Part I - Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Part I - Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Part II - Item 1. Legal Proceedings
Part II - Item 1A. Risk Factors

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(1) Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Description of Business
DZS Inc. (referred to, collectively with its subsidiaries, as “DZS” or the “Company”) is global provider of access and optical networking infrastructure and cloud software solutions that enable the emerging hyper-connected, hyper-broadband world and broadband experiences. The Company provides a wide array of reliable, cost-effective networking technologies and software to a diverse customer base.
DZS was incorporated under the laws of the state of Delaware in June 1999. The Company is headquartered in Plano, Texas with contract manufacturers and original design manufacturers located in the U.S, India, Korea, China, Taiwan, and Vietnam. The Company also maintains offices to provide sales and customer support at global locations. Through 2022, we also utilized our in-house manufacturing facility in Seminole, Florida. In October 2022, we announced an agreement with Fabrinet, a third-party provider of electro-mechanical and electronic manufacturing and distribution services, to transition the sourcing, procurement, order-fulfillment, manufacturing and return merchandise authorization activities in the Company's Seminole facility to Fabrinet. The transition began in October 2022 and substantially completed in the beginning of 2023, whereupon the Company no longer manufactures its products.
(b) Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 3 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on August 12, 2024. For a complete description of what the Company believes to be the critical accounting policies and estimates used in the preparation of its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2022.
All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the current interim period are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the current year or any other period.
(c) Risks and Uncertainties
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.
We continue to be exposed to macroeconomic pressures in the post-COVID-19 environment, including concerns about energy costs, geopolitical issues, inflation, the availability and cost of credit, business and consumer confidence, and unemployment. We have seen improvement in our supply chain in 2023 as supply chain pricing, freight and logistics costs, product and component availability, and extended lead-times which were a challenge in 2021 and 2022 begin to alleviate in 2023 as the world economy recovers from the COVID-19 pandemic. We expect elevated costs for components and expedite fees to further improve throughout 2023.
We conduct significant business in South Korea, Japan, Vietnam, India, Spain, and Canada, as well as in other countries in Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Latin America, all of which subject us to foreign currency exchange rate risk. The local currencies of our significant foreign subsidiaries are the South Korean Won ("KRW"), Japanese Yen ("JPY"), Euro ("EUR), and Pound Sterling ("GBP"). Revenues and operating expenses are typically denominated in the local currency of each country and result from transactions by our operations in these countries. However, a significant portion of our international cost of sales is denominated in the U.S. Dollar (“USD”).
As of March 31, 2023, the Company's debt obligation under the Term Loan was $23.7 million, net of unamortized issuance cost of $0.4 million, of which $1.3 million is scheduled for payment in the next 12 months. Due to the risk of non-compliance with certain financial covenants in the next 12 months we classified the entire amount as a current liability. As of March 31, 2023, we were in discussion with the lenders to amend the debt agreement to mitigate the risk of non-compliance. Refer to Note 16 Subsequent events for further information about the amendment and subsequent termination of the JPMorgan Credit Agreement.
7

In addition to negotiating for revised financial covenants, we continue to focus on cost management, operating efficiency and efficient discretionary spending. Management is actively taking measures to enhance profitability and liquidity, including reducing the Company’s cost structure and cash outflows, including its investment in inventory, and managing receivable balances through aggressive collection efforts and tighter customers payment terms. These plans are not completely within the Company’s control, as some actions are dependent on the Company’s lenders, vendors and customers. However, the Company believes that it will maintain liquidity in the next 12 months to support its operations.
(d) Use of Estimates
The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
(e) Restatement
Subsequent to the issuance of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2023 and as previously disclosed on June 1, 2023, Management determined that the Company’s previously issued unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2023 (the “Q1 2023 Financial Statements”) contained an accounting error relating to the timing of revenue recognition with respect to certain customer projects. As a result of this error, the Audit Committee determined that the Company’s Q1 2023 Financial Statements should no longer be relied upon and should be restated. In addition, as a result of the error, the Audit Committee initiated a review of the Company’s accounting for revenue recognition and the extent to which these matters affect the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting (the “Review”).
On November 9, 2023, the Company disclosed that although the Review was still ongoing, based on preliminary findings, management had determined that the Company’s previously issued audited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Annual Financial Statements”), as well as the Company’s previously issued unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for each of the three months ended March 31, 2022, the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 (collectively, the “2022 Interim Financial Statements” and, together with the 2022 Annual Financial Statements, the “2022 Financial Statements” and, together with the Q1 2023 Financial Statements, the “Affected Financial Statements”), should no longer be relied upon and should be restated due to accounting errors in each of the 2022 Financial Statements relating to revenue recognition.
During the course of the Review, and during the Company's subsequent assessment of its accounting practices, accounting and financial reporting errors were identified. Specifically, errors in timing of revenue recognition relating to incorrect shipping dates, incorrect or unapproved shipping terms, incorrect timing of the transfer of control, and incorrect evaluation of the existence of contracts. As a result, revenue, accounts receivable, contract assets and liabilities, and inventory and cost of sales contained errors which resulted in corrections in accounting under U.S. GAAP related to the timing of revenue recognition under certain customer projects. Accordingly, the Company is restating its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2023, to correct these errors, the most significant of which are described below.
The amounts in the "As Previously Reported" columns are amounts derived from the Company's previously filed financial statements in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 9, 2023. The amounts in the "Adjustments" columns present the impact of the accounting error corrections relating to the timing of revenue recognition with respect to certain customer projects along with other corrections to the Company's previously filed financial statements. The description of the corrections is referenced by (a) through (d) in the tables below. The amounts in the "As Restated" columns are the updated amounts including the impacts from the adjustments.

(g) Concentration of Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, accounts receivables, and contract assets. Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash consist of financial deposits and money market accounts that are principally held with various domestic and international financial institutions with high credit standing. As of March 31, 2023, the Company had cash accounts in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insured limits.
The Company’s customers include competitive and incumbent local exchange carriers, competitive access providers, internet service providers, wireless carriers and resellers serving these markets. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and generally does not require collateral. Allowances are maintained for potential doubtful accounts based upon the expected collectability of accounts receivable using historical loss rates adjusted for customer-specific factors and current economic conditions. The Company determines historical loss rates on a rational and systematic basis. The Company performs periodic assessments of its customers’ liquidity and financial condition through analysis of information obtained from credit rating agencies, financial statement review and historical and current collection trends.
Activity under the Company’s allowance for credit losses consists of the following (in thousands):

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, two customers accounted for 13% and 16% of net revenue. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, three customers accounted for 15%, 14%, and 13% of net revenue, respectively.
As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, no customers represented more than 10% of net accounts receivable.
As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, net accounts receivables from customers in countries other than the United States represented 81%.

In 2017, the Company entered into an agreement with a customer in India to supply product for a state sponsored broadband project. The Company substantially completed its obligations under the agreement in 2018. The Company billed the customer, which is a state government sponsored entity, approximately $59.0 million and collected payments of approximately $41.7 million by December 31, 2020. In late March 2021, the customer’s state government parent experienced difficulty passing a budget impacting the ability of the customer to make remaining agreed-upon payments to us. In light of this development, the Company recorded an allowance that covered the entire balance unpaid by the customer. Subsequent to March 2021, the Company recovered approximately $2.5 million of accounts receivable related to the customer. As of March 31, 2023 the Company has a recorded allowance for credit losses of $13.1 million related to this receivable. The Company will continue to pursue collection of the entire outstanding balance and any amounts collected will be recognized in the period which they are received. In the event the Company’s efforts to collect from this customer prove unsuccessful, DZS may seek payment through other means, including through legal action.
(h) Business Combinations
We account for business combinations using the acquisition method, which requires the identification of the acquirer, the determination of the acquisition date and the allocation of the purchase price paid by the acquirer to the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, including any contingent consideration and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at their acquisition date fair values. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired, including the amount assigned to identifiable intangible assets. Identifiable intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their expected useful lives. Acquisition-related costs are expensed in the periods in which the costs are incurred. The results of operations of acquired businesses are included in our consolidated financial statements from the acquisition date.
(i) Restructuring and Other Charges
From time to time, the Company takes actions to align its workforce, facilities and operating costs with perceived market opportunities, business strategies and changes in market and business conditions. The Company recognizes a liability for the cost associated with an exit or disposal activity in the period in which the liability is incurred, except for one-time employee termination benefits, which are measured at the communication date and recognized ratably over the required service period, if any.
(j) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers, which requires the Company to apply ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities from contracts with customers acquired in a business combination. Before the update such balances were measured and recognized at fair value on the acquisition date. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including in interim periods. The Company adopted these requirements prospectively, effective on the first day of the second quarter of year 2022. There was no material impact on our consolidated financial statements on the adoption date.
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which requires the Company to measure and recognize expected credit losses for financial assets held and not accounted for at fair value through net income. In November 2018, April 2019 and May 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, ASU No. 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, and ASU No. 2019-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief, which provided additional implementation guidance on the previously issued ASU. The Company adopted the updated guidance on January 1, 2022, utilizing the modified retrospective transition method and recorded a cumulative-effect adjustment of $0.4 million to accumulated deficit.

ASSIA Acquisition
On May 27, 2022, the Company acquired certain assets and liabilities of Adaptive Spectrum and Signal Alignment, Incorporated (“ASSIA”), an industry pioneer of broadband access quality-of-experience and service assurance software solutions (the “ASSIA Acquisition”). The core assets acquired include the CloudCheck® Wi-Fi experience management and Expresse® access network optimization software solutions.
The initial purchase consideration was $25.0 million, including a $2.5 million holdback that will be released in 13 months following the transaction close date. In October 2022, the Company agreed to pay an additional $1.35 million of purchase consideration to settle certain unresolved matters related to the ASSIA Acquisition.
The acquisition was recorded as a business combination with valuation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed recorded at their acquisition date fair value determined using primarily level three inputs, defined as unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. The Company used a combination of income approach and market approach to determine the fair value of intangible assets acquired. Significant unobservable inputs included estimated future cash flows and a discount rate. Cash flow projections were based on management’s estimates of revenue growth rates and operating margins, EBITDA margins, consideration of industry and market conditions, terminal growth rates and management’s estimates of working capital requirements. The discount rate of 23% was based on a weighted average cost of capital adjusted for the relevant risk associated with the characteristics of intangible assets acquired. Under the market approach, the Company utilized an analysis of royalty rate licensing data. We completed the purchase price allocation for ASSIA Acquisition in the first quarter of 2023.
The following summarizes the final fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of the ASSIA Acquisition (in thousands):
Allocation of purchase consideration
Cash and cash equivalents$203

Operating lease liabilities(2,612)
Accrued and other liabilities(756)
Goodwill (As Restated)6,449 
Total purchase consideration$26,350 
The purchase price allocation resulted in the recognition of goodwill of approximately $6.4 million, which included the experienced workforce and the expected synergies from combining operations. The Company expects no goodwill to be deductible for tax purposes.
The following table represents the final estimated fair value and useful lives of identifiable intangible assets acquired (estimated fair value in thousands):

(3) Fair Value Measurement
The Company utilizes a fair value hierarchy that is intended to increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures. The fair value hierarchy is based on inputs to valuation techniques that are used to measure fair value that are either observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability based on market data obtained from independent sources while unobservable inputs reflect a reporting entity’s pricing based upon their own market assumptions. The fair value hierarchy consists of the following three levels:
Level 1    Inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2    Inputs are quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in an active market, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable and market-corroborated inputs which are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3    Inputs are derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or value drivers are unobservable
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis:
The carrying values of financial instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts and other receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values based on their short-term nature. The Company classifies its cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash within Level 1 and other short-term assets and liabilities within Level 2. The carrying value of the Company's debt approximates its fair values based on the current rates available to the Company for debt of similar terms and maturities. The Company classifies its debt within Level 2.
The Company classifies its contingent liability from Optelian acquisition within Level 3 as it includes inputs not observable in the market. The Company estimates the fair value of contingent consideration as the present value of the expected contingent payments, determined using the revenue forecast for certain Optelian products through the end of 2023. The fair value of contingent liability is generally sensitive to changes in the revenue forecast during the payout period. The change in the respective fair value is included in selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive loss.
The following table reconciles the beginning and ending balances of the Company’s Level 3 contingent liability (in thousands):
Three Months Ended March 31,
20232022
Balance at beginning of period$1,156 $2,121 
Net change in fair value27 51 
Balance at end of period$1,183 $2,172 
(4) Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company's cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash consisted of financial deposits. Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash held within the U.S. totaled $16.8 million and $24.9 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash held within the U.S. are held at FDIC insured depository institutions. Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash held outside the U.S. totaled $14.1 million and $13.6 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Restricted cash consisted primarily of cash collateral for performance bonds and warranty bonds. Long-term restricted cash was $0.1 million and $0.2 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and is included in other assets on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Depreciation expense associated with property, plant and equipment for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022 was $1.2 million and $0.8 million, respectively.
Warranties
The Company accrues warranty costs based on historical trends for the expected material and labor costs to provide warranty services. The Company's standard warranty period is one year from the date of shipment with the ability for customers to purchase an extended warranty of up to five years from the date of shipment. The following table summarizes the activity related to the product warranty liability:

Contract Balances
The Company records contract assets when it has a right to consideration and records accounts receivable when it has an unconditional right to consideration. Contract liabilities consist of cash payments received (or unconditional rights to receive cash) in advance of fulfilling performance obligations. The majority of the Company's performance obligations in its contracts with customers relate to contracts with duration of less than one year.

The opening and closing balances of current and long-term contract assets and contract liabilities related to contracts with customers are as follows:
Contract
assets
Contract
liabilities
December 31, 2022$576 $26,493 
March 31, 2023 (As Restated)$605 $23,198 
The decrease in contract liabilities during the three months ended March 31, 2023 was primarily due to the revenue recognition criteria being met for previously deferred revenue, partially offset by invoiced amounts that did not yet meet the revenue recognition criteria. The amount of revenue recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2023 that was included in the prior period contract liability balance was $8.5 million. The amount of revenue recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2022 that was included in the prior period contract liability balance was $2.4 million. This revenue consists of services provided to customers who had been invoiced prior to the current year. We expect to recognize approximately 72% of outstanding contract liabilities as revenue over the next 12 months and the remainder thereafter.
The balance of contract cost deferred as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $0.5 million and $1.0 million, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recorded $0.5 million in amortization related to contract cost deferred as of December 31, 2022. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded $0.2 million in amortization related to contract cost deferred as of December 31, 2021.

(11) Net Loss Per Share
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The calculation of diluted net loss per share gives effect to common stock equivalents; however, potential common stock equivalents are excluded if their effect is antidilutive. Potential common stock equivalents are composed of incremental shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options and the vesting of restricted stock units. In periods when a net loss is reported, all common stock equivalents are excluded from the calculation because they would have an anti-dilutive effect, meaning the loss per share would be reduced. Therefore, in periods when a loss is reported, basic and dilutive loss per share are the same.
The following table is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator in the basic and diluted net loss per share calculation (in thousands, except per share data) for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and 2022:

Assets and liabilities related to operating leases are included in the consolidated balance sheets as right-of-use assets from operating leases, operating lease liabilities - current and operating lease liabilities - non-current. The Company recognizes minimum rental expense on a straight-line basis based on the fixed components of a lease arrangement.

(13) Commitments and Contingencies
Performance Guarantees
In the normal course of operations, from time to time, the Company arranges for the issuance of various types of performance guarantees, such as standby letters of credit or surety bonds. These instruments are arrangements under which the financial institution or surety provides a financial guarantee that the Company will perform in accordance with contractual or legal obligations. As of March 31, 2023, the Company had $15.6 million of performance guarantees in the form of bank guarantees or surety bonds guaranteed by third parties.
Trade Compliance Matter
During the first quarter of 2022, the Company received a notice letter from the Office of the Commissioner of Customs, Chennai II of the India Department of Revenue (the “Notice”) claiming the Company had allegedly mis-declared and incorrectly classified certain products imported to India by the Company at the time of clearance of customs. The Notice claims that due to such mis-declaration and incorrect classification of the imported products, the Company and its contract manufacturer in India underpaid duties approximating INR 299.6 million ($3.6 million USD based on exchange rates as of March 31, 2023) related to such products. The documents relied upon in the Notice were requested by the Company, however they are yet to be received. In the second quarter of 2023, the Company received a second notice letter issued by the Office of the Principal Commissioner of Customs (Air Cargo) Complex, Chennai VII Commissionerate claiming the alleged underpaid duties approximated INR 389.3 million ($4.7 million based on exchange rates as of March 31, 2023). The two notice letters cover substantially the same shipments and overlap in scope. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself in this matter. As we have not yet received the full contents of the Notice, we are unable to estimate a potential loss related to this matter, if any, which could range up to the full amount of the alleged unpaid duties, plus penalties and interest.
Plume
On October 10, 2022, Plume Design, Inc. (“Plume”) filed suit against DZS in the Superior Court of the State of Delaware, alleging that DZS breached a reseller contract with Plume and seeking $24.75 million in damages. The parties have completed briefing on dispositive motions, and a trial is currently set for October 7, 2024. DZS intends to vigorously defend this lawsuit.
26

In addition to the matters discussed above, from time to time, the Company is subject to various legal proceedings, claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of these matters is currently not determinable, the Company records an accrual for legal contingencies that it has determined to be probable to the extent that the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company does not expect that the ultimate costs to resolve these matters will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable rulings could occur. If an unfavorable ruling were to occur, there exists the possibility of a material adverse impact on the results of operations and cash flows of the reporting period in which the ruling occurs, or future periods.
(14) Income Taxes
Income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was approximately $1.2 million on pre-tax loss of $22.6 million. Income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was approximately $1.8 million on pre-tax loss of $5.8 million.
As of March 31, 2023, the income tax rate varied from the United States statutory income tax rate primarily due to valuation allowances in North America, EMEA and Asia, mandatory R&D expense capitalization in the U.S., and foreign and state income tax rate differentials. Consistent with the prior periods, the Company continued to maintain valuation allowances in North America, EMEA and Asia.
The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits, including interest and penalties, as of March 31, 2023 was $5.2 million. There were no significant changes to unrecognized tax benefits during the three months ended March 31, 2023. The Company does not anticipate any significant changes with respect to unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months.
(15) Enterprise-Wide Information
The Company is a global provider of ultra-broadband network access solutions and communications platforms deployed by advanced Tier 1, national and regional service providers and enterprise customers. There are no segment managers who are held accountable for operations, operating results and plans for levels or components below the Company unit level.

OVERVIEW
We are a global provider of access and optical networking infrastructure and cloud software solutions that enable the emerging hyper-connected, hyper-broadband world and broadband experiences. The Company provides a wide array of reliable, cost-effective networking technologies and software to a diverse customer base.
We research, develop, test, sell, manufacture and support platforms in the areas of mobile transport and fixed broadband access, as discussed below. We have extensive regional development and support centers around the world to support our customer needs.
Our solutions and platforms portfolio include products in Access Edge, Subscriber Edge, Optical Edge, and Cloud Software.
Access Edge. Our DZS Velocity portfolio offers a variety of solutions for carriers and service providers to connect residential and business customers, either using high-speed fiber or leveraging their existing deployed copper networks to offer broadband services to customer premises. Once our broadband access products are deployed, the service provider can offer voice, high-definition and ultra-high-definition video, high speed internet access and business class services to their customers. In addition, the switching and routing products we provide in this space offer a high-performance and manageable solution that bridges the gap from carrier access technologies to the core network. XCelerate by DZS increases the velocity with which service providers can leap to multi-gigabit services at scale by enabling rapid transition from Gigabit Ethernet Passive Optical Network (“GPON”) to 10 Gigabit Symmetrical Passive Optical Network (“XGS-PON”) and Gigabit Ethernet to 10 Gigabit Ethernet via any service port across a range of existing DZS Velocity chassis and 10 gigabit optimized stackable fixed form factor units.
28

Subscriber Edge. Our DZS Helix connected premises product portfolio offers a large collection of optical network terminals (“ONTs”) and smart gateway solutions for any fiber to the “x” (“FTTx”) deployment. DZS ONTs and Smart Gateway platforms are designed for high bandwidth services being deployed to the home or business. Our connected premises portfolio consists of indoor/outdoor ONTs and gateways delivering best-in-class data and WiFi throughout the premises to support FTTx applications. The product feature set gives service providers an elegant migration path from legacy to soft switch architectures without replacing ONTs.
Optical Edge. Our DZS Chronos and DZS Saber portfolios provide robust, manageable and scalable solution for mobile operators and service providers that enable them to upgrade their mobile fronthaul/midhaul/backhaul (“xHaul”) systems and migrate to fifth generation wireless technologies (“5G”) and beyond as well as deliver robust edge transport. DZS Chronos provides a full range of 5G-ready xHaul and coherent optical capable solutions that are open, software-defined, and field proven. Our mobile xHaul and edge transport products may be collocated at the radio access node base station and can aggregate multiple radio access node base stations into a single backhaul for delivery of mobile traffic to the radio access node network controller or be leveraged as transport vehicles for FTTx deployments. Our products support pure Ethernet switching as well as layer 3 IP and Multiprotocol Label Switching (“MPLS”), and we interoperate with other vendors in these networks. Our DZS Saber portfolio provides high bandwidth optical transport and services, enabling service providers to push high bandwidth transport closer to their subscribers near the edge of their networks. Complementary to the growth of high bandwidth technologies like XGS-PON and 5G mobile at the access edge, DZS Saber products leverage environmentally hardened dense wavelength-division multiplexing (DWDM) coherent optics to deliver transport bandwidth speeds from 100 gigabits per second (Gbps) to 400 Gbps over long distances that can be necessary to support advanced access and mobile technologies. Some DZS Saber platforms also provide additional feature such as multi-degree colorless directionless contentionless (CDC) FlexGrid reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexer (ROADM) functionality, which allows service providers to easily adjust to changing network traffic demands.
Cloud Software. Our DZS Cloud platform provides software capabilities specifically in the areas of network orchestration, application slicing, automation, analytics, service assurance, and consumer broadband experience. Via our DZS Xtreme solutions we offer a commercial, carrier-grade network-slicing enabled orchestration platform complementing our position with physical network devices supporting Open RAN (“O-RAN”) and 4G/5G networks. Communications service providers are implementing software defined networking (“SDN”) and network functions virtualization (“NFV”) architectures to reduce reliance on proprietary systems and hardware, which increase service agility, flexibility, and deployment of new network services while lowering costs. Our Expresse software solution provides a clear view of multi-vendor, multi-technology access networks for both network and service assurance while monitoring, identifying, diagnosing, and fixing network problems via an artificial intelligence (AI) based recommendation engine. CloudCheck software is an advanced WiFi experience management and analytics solution that enables communications service providers to monitor, manage and optimize home WiFi networks. DZS customers are implementing experience and service assurance solutions to reduce support costs, including specifically the costs of WiFi troubleshooting and truck rolls, improve service performance and customer satisfaction, and ultimately reduce subscriber churn and increase average revenue per user (ARPU).
Our key financial objectives include the following:
Increasing revenue while continuing to carefully control costs;
Continuing investments in strategic research and product development activities that will provide the maximum potential return on investment;
Minimizing consumption of our cash and cash equivalents; and
Improving gross margin through a wide range of initiatives, including an increase in the mix of recurring software revenue and reducing fixed costs by outsourcing manufacturing.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
On February 15, 2023, the Company entered into a Second Amendment to Credit Agreement (the “Second Amendment”), which amends the Credit Agreement dated February 9, 2022 (as previously amended on May 27, 2022) and, among other things, modifies certain financial covenants. Refer to Note 7, in the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, for further information on the Second Amendment.
On May 8, 2023, the Company entered into a Third Amendment to the Credit Agreement (the "Third Amendment"), which amends the Credit Agreement dated February 9, 2022 (as previously amended on May 27, 2022 and February 15, 2023). The Third Amendment, among other things, (1) modifies the financial covenants to eliminate the minimum EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Facility) of ($1 million) for the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2023, (2) decreases the calculation of the borrowing base by $5 million through June 30, 2023 and an additional $5 million thereafter, (3) reduces the amount of the Revolving Credit Facility commitment to $25 million effective June 15, 2023, and (4) increases the applicable margin for adjusted term SOFR borrowings and prime rate borrowings to 4.5% and 3.5%, respectively, when the Company’s leverage ratio exceeds 2.50 to 1.00.
As of March 31, 2023, the Company's debt obligation under the Term Loan was $23.7 million, net of unamortized issuance cost of $0.4 million, and of which $1.3 million is scheduled for payment in the next 12 months. Due to the risk of non-compliance with certain financial covenants in the next 12 months, we presented our contractual long-term debt obligation of $22.8 million and $23.1 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, within the current portion of long-term debt on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of March 31, 2023, we were in discussion with the lenders to amend the debt agreement to mitigate the risk of non-compliance. Refer to Note 16 Subsequent events in the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information about the amendment and subsequent termination of the JPMorgan Credit Agreement.
RESTATEMENT
The accompanying Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations gives effect to the restatement adjustments made to the previously reported unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022. Restatement adjustments have also been made to the previously reported consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022. For additional information and a detailed discussion of the restatement, see Note 1 (e) Restatement in the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Net Revenue
The following table presents our revenues by product technology (dollars in thousands):
Three Months Ended March 31,
20232022Increase (Decrease)
(As Restated)(As Restated)(As Restated)
Access Networking Infrastructure$58,496 $67,412 (13.2)%
Cloud Software & Services11,316 4,578 147.2 %
Total$69,812 $71,990 (3.0)%
Our revenue from sales of access networking infrastructure products includes Access Edge, Optical Edge, and Subscriber Edge network solutions. Our cloud software and services revenue represents revenue from our Cloud Software solutions including DZS Xtreme, Expresse and CloudCheck software, and revenue from maintenance and other professional services associated with product shipments.
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, access networking infrastructure revenue decreased by 13.2% or $8.9 million to $58.5 million from $67.4 million in the same period last year. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower spending levels from our major customers in Asia. The increase in cloud software and services revenue was primarily due to the revenue related to the ASSIA Acquisition.
31

The following table presents our revenues by geographical concentration (dollars in thousands):
Three Months Ended March 31,
20232022Increase (Decrease)
(As Restated)(As Restated)(As Restated)
Americas$24,975 $22,924 8.9 %

Asia26,431 32,673 (19.1)%
Total$69,812 $71,990 (3.0)%
Our geographic diversification reflects the combination of market demand, a strategic focus on capturing market share through new customer wins and new product introductions.
The decrease in net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was attributable to decreased revenue in Asia driven by decreased spending levels from our major customers in the region, partially offset by the revenue related to the ASSIA Acquisition.
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, two customers accounted for 13% and 16% of net revenue. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, three customers accounted for 15%, 14%, and 13% of net revenue, respectively.
We anticipate that our results of operations in any given period may depend to a significant extent on sales to a small number of large customers. As a result, our revenue for any quarter may be subject to significant volatility based upon changes in orders from one or a small number of key customers.
Cost of Revenue and Gross Profit
Total cost of revenue increased by 1.5% to $47.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to $46.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. Total cost of revenue was 67.8% of net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2023, compared to 64.7% of net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022, which resulted in a decrease in gross profit percentage to 32.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from 35.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The decrease in total cost of revenue was primarily due to the decrease in sales volume. The gross profit percentage decrease was primarily due to the change in number and mix of products sold, as certain lower margin projects anticipated in later quarters were accelerated into the first quarter, and certain higher margin projects were deferred to later quarters, which was partially offset by higher margins on software sales related to the ASSIA Acquisition.
Operating Expenses
Research and Product Development Expenses: Research and product development expenses include personnel costs, outside contractor and consulting services, depreciation on lab equipment, costs of prototypes and overhead allocations.
Research and product development expenses increased by 25.4% to $14.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to $11.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase in research and product development expenses was primarily due to strategic hiring decisions in research, development, and product line management with the intent to accelerate growth and capture market share and the ASSIA Acquisition.
We intend to continue to invest in research and product development to attain our strategic product development objectives, while seeking to manage the associated costs through expense controls.
Selling, Marketing, General and Administrative Expenses: Selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses include personnel costs for sales, marketing, administration, finance, information technology, human resources and general management as well as legal and accounting expenses, rent, utilities, trade show expenses and related travel costs.
Selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses increased by 39.7% to $24.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 compared to $17.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to higher stock-based compensation and strategic hiring decisions across sales and administration with the intent to accelerate growth and capture market share.
32

Restructuring and Other Charges: Restructuring and other charges for the three months ended March 31, 2023 primarily related to the strategic decision to outsource manufacturing from the Company's Seminole, Florida facility to Fabrinet, for which the Company recorded $3.5 million of such charges. The Company also included in restructuring and other charges approximately $0.3 million of facility costs related to impaired facilities and $0.4 million of non-capitalizable implementation costs related to replacement of the Company’s legacy enterprise resource planning and reporting software. Restructuring and other charges for the three months ended March 31, 2022 related primarily to the transition DZS GmbH and Optelian to sales and research and development centers, for which the Company recorded $0.4 million of such charges. See Note 9 Restructuring and Other Charges of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, for further information.
Interest Income (Expense), net: Interest income (expense) relates mainly to earnings from our cash and cash equivalents, interest expense associated with the credit facilities and amortization of debt issuance costs associated with obtaining such credit facilities. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recorded $0.8 million interest expense, net. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded $0.1 million of interest expense, net.
Other Income (Expense), net: Other income (expense), net relates mainly to realized and unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recorded $0.7 million of other income, net. For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded $0.8 million of other expense. The change in other income (expense), net was primarily due to foreign currency exchange rates fluctuation during the above periods.
Income Tax Provision: Income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was approximately $1.2 million on pre-tax loss of $22.6 million. Income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was approximately $1.8 million on pre-tax loss of $5.8 million.
As of March 31, 2023, the income tax rate varied from the United States statutory income tax rate primarily due to valuation allowances in North America, EMEA and Asia, mandatory R&D expense capitalization in the U.S., and foreign and state income tax rate differentials. Consistent with the prior periods, the Company continued to maintain valuation allowances in North America, EMEA and Asia.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
For a complete description of what we believe to be the critical accounting policies and estimates used in the preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, refer to Note 1 Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the Notes to our Audited Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2022, as supplemented by Note 1 Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our operations are financed through a combination of our existing cash, cash equivalents, available credit facilities, and issuance of equity or debt instruments, based on our operating requirements and market conditions.
The following table summarizes the information regarding our cash and cash equivalents and working capital (in thousands):
March 31, 2023December 31, 2022
Unrestricted cash and cash equivalents$28,892 $34,347 
Working capital (As Restated)$68,806 $89,658 
As of March 31, 2023, we had $68.8 million of working capital and $28.9 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, which included $13.3 million in cash balances held by our international subsidiaries.
As of March 31, 2023, the Company's debt obligation under the Term Loan was $23.7 million, net of unamortized issuance cost of $0.4 million, and of which $1.3 million is scheduled for payment in the next 12 months. As of March 31, 2023, we had $12 million outstanding debt and $1.2 million in letters of credit issued under the $30.0 million Revolving Credit Facility, and, after entering into the Third Amendment, $16.8 million was available to the Company for additional borrowing under the Revolving Credit Facility.
33

Due to the risk of non-compliance with certain financial covenants in the next 12 months, we presented our contractual long-term debt obligation of $22.8 million and $23.1 million as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, within the current portion of long-term debt on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of March 31, 2023, we were in discussion with the lenders to amend the debt agreement to mitigate the risk of non-compliance. Refer to Note 16 Subsequent events in the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information about the amendment and subsequent termination of the JPMorgan Credit Agreement.
In addition to negotiating for revised financial covenants, we continue to focus on cost management, operating efficiency and efficient discretionary spending. Management is actively taking measures to enhance profitability and liquidity, including reducing the Company’s cost structure and cash outflows, including its investment in inventory, and managing receivable balances through aggressive collection efforts and tighter customers payment terms. These plans are not completely within the Company’s control, as some actions are dependent on the Company’s lenders, vendors and customers. However, management believes that such plans are reasonably achievable and the Company will sufficiently meet its liquidity needs.
In addition, if necessary, we may leverage our Revolving Credit Facility or issue debt or equity securities. We may also rationalize the number of products we sell, adjust our manufacturing footprint, and reduce our operations in low margin regions, including reductions in headcount. Based on our current forecast, plans and current business conditions, the Company believes its existing cash, together with the working capital balances, will be sufficient to fund the Company’s ongoing liquidity requirements, including debt repayments, operating expenses and capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months from the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A.
The following table presents a summary of our cash flow activity for the periods set forth below (in thousands):

Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash at beginning of period$38,464 $53,639 
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash at end of period$31,016 $40,665 
Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities increased by $4.4 million to $15.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 from net cash used in operating activities of $10.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022. The increase in cash used in operating activities was primarily due to an increase in research and development expenses, sales and marketing expense, and restructuring expenses related to the Fabrinet transition.
Investing Activities
Net cash provided by investing activities totaled $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and consisted primarily of cash received from the sale of manufacturing equipment as part of transition to Fabrinet. This is in comparison to net cash used in investing activities of $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 which consisted primarily of purchases of property and equipment.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $6.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and consisted primarily of net drawings on Revolving Credit Facility and other short-term borrowings. This is in comparison to net cash used in financing activities of $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 which consisted primarily of payment of debt issuance cost partially offset by proceeds from exercise of stock awards.
34

Cash Management
Our primary source of liquidity comes from our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, which totaled $31.0 million at March 31, 2023. Our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as of March 31, 2023 included $14.1 million held by our international subsidiaries.
Debt Facilities
As of March 31, 2023, the Company's debt obligation consisted of $23.7 million of the JPMorgan Term Loan obligation, $12.0 million outstanding debt under the $30.0 million Revolving Credit Facility, $0.9 million of the short-term obligation under the IBK Loan, and $3.8 million of short-term obligation under the February 2023 DNI Loan. Refer to Note 7 Debt, in the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, for more detail about our current and past debt obligations.
Future Cash Requirements and Funding Sources
Our fixed commitments for cash expenditures consist primarily of payments under operating leases, inventory purchase commitments, and payments of principal and interest for debt obligations.
From time to time, we may provide or commit to extend credit or credit support to our customers. This financing may include extending the terms for product payments to customers. Any extension of financing to our customers will limit the capital that we have available for other uses.
Our accounts receivable represent a concentration of credit risk because a significant portion of the accounts receivable balance at any point in time typically consists of a relatively small number of customer account balances. As of March 31, 2023, no customers represented more than 10% of net accounts receivable. Net accounts receivables from customers in countries other than the United States represented 81% of such receivables. We do not currently have any material commitments for capital expenditures, or any other material commitments aside from operating leases for our facilities, inventory purchase commitments and debt obligations.
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (TCJA) requires capitalization of all research and development ("R&D") costs incurred in tax years beginning after Dec. 31, 2021 for tax reporting purposes. Capitalized R&D costs will be deductible over five years if the R&D activities are performed in the U.S. or 15 years if the activities are performed outside of the U.S. Due to the Company's significant annual investment in R&D, the impact of this legislation will accelerate the utilization of the Company's net operating loss carryforwards and the timing of when the Company becomes a tax paying entity in the U.S.
Operating Leases
Future minimum operating lease obligations include primarily payments for our office locations and manufacturing, research and development locations, which expire at various dates through 2028. See Note 12 Leases of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding our operating leases.
Purchase Commitments
We may have short-term purchase commitments related to the purchase orders for products and services, within the normal course of business. In certain instances, we are permitted to cancel, reschedule or adjust these orders.
Debt obligations
Future debt obligations include scheduled principal repayments, and associated interest payments which may vary based on changes in market interest rates. See Note 7 Debt to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding our debt obligations.
35

Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
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 primarily a result of fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange risks. We do not hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes.
Interest Rate Risk
We had unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of $28.9 million and $34.3 million at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. We do not have material exposure to market risk with respect to investments, as our investments consist primarily of highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less.
Our exposure to interest rate risk includes the amount of interest we must pay on our borrowings under our JPMorgan Credit Agreement. At the Company’s option, amounts borrowed under the Credit Agreement, as amended, accrue interest at a per annum rate equal to either (i) the adjusted term SOFR rate plus a margin ranging from 3.5% to 4.5% per year or (ii) the prime rate plus a margin ranging from 2.5% to 3.5% per year, in each case depending on the Company’s leverage ratio.
As of March 31, 2023, the Company's contractual debt obligation under the Term Loan was $24.1 million. If the applicable variable interest rates changed by 200 basis points, our interest expense for the first three months of 2023 would have decreased or increased by less than $0.2 million.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
We have foreign currency risks related to certain of our foreign subsidiaries, primarily in Korea, Japan, Germany, and the UK. International net revenues and operating expense are typically denominated in the local currency of each country and result from transactions by our operations in these countries. The local currencies of these foreign subsidiaries are the South Korean Won ("KRW"), Japanese Yen ("JPY"), Euro ("EUR), and Pound Sterling ("GBP"), respectively. Fluctuations in foreign currencies create volatility in our reported results of operations. If the U.S. Dollar ("USD") had appreciated or depreciated by 10% relative to KRW, JPY, EUR and GBP our operating income for the first three months of 2023 would have decreased or increased by approximately $3.0 million, respectively.
Foreign exchange rate fluctuations may also adversely impact our financial position as the assets and liabilities of our foreign operations are translated into USD in preparing our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The effect of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on our consolidated financial position for the three months ended March 31, 2023 was a net translation loss of $1.9 million. This loss is recognized as an adjustment to stockholders’ equity through accumulated other comprehensive loss. If USD had appreciated or depreciated by 10% relative to KRW, JPY, EUR, and GBP, our net assets as of March 31, 2023 would have decreased or increased by approximately $3.0 million, respectively.
We have certain assets and liabilities, primarily inter-company loans, that are denominated in currencies other than the relevant entity’s functional currency. Our intercompany loans are primarily denominated in USD and EUR. Changes in the functional currency value of these balances create fluctuations in our reported consolidated financial position, cash flows and results of operations. Transaction gains and losses on these foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities are recognized each period within “Other income (expense), net” in our unaudited condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive loss. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we recognized approximately $0.3 million of gain related to the intercompany loans denominated in foreign currencies. If USD had appreciated or depreciated by 10% relative to EUR, our net income for the first three months of 2023 would have decreased or increased by approximately $2.0 million, respectively.
Item 4.    Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We are required to maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the objective that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted pursuant to the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Our disclosure controls and procedures include those components of our internal control over financial reporting intended to provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financials in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

36

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2023, the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A. The evaluation was done under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer. In the course of the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2023, due to the existence of unremediated material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below.

A material weakness (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement in our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Notwithstanding the existence of the material weaknesses described below, management believes that the condensed consolidated financial statements and related financial information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of and for the periods presented, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP").

Based on the assessment, management determined that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2023, as a result of material weaknesses in the following areas:

Control Environment, Risk Assessment, Monitoring Activities, Information and Communication of Policies and Procedures

We did not maintain appropriately designed entity-level controls impacting the control environment and effective monitoring controls to prevent or detect material misstatements to the consolidated financial statements. These deficiencies were attributed to (i) inadequate oversight and accountability over the performance of control activities primarily in the Asia geographic region, (ii) ineffective identification and assessment of risks to properly design, implement, and maintain relevant controls for revenue recognition, (iii) inadequate education and training in certain areas important to financial reporting, and (iv) ineffective controls over ensuring consistent commitment to integrity and ethical values.

Control Activities Related to Certain Business Processes

These material weaknesses contributed to the following additional material weaknesses related to the control activities within certain business processes:
Asia Region - We did not operate effective controls across substantially all of the Asia region’s business processes that were in place to achieve timely, complete, and accurate financial accounting, reporting, and disclosures.
Revenue Recognition - We did not appropriately design, implement and maintain effective controls over the revenue recognition process, relating to the proper application of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The root cause of these control gaps was the inadequate or ineffective process level controls (including but not limited to controls around capturing and managing changes to customer order terms in the company’s records, timely processing of customer product returns, oversight of 3rd party business partners, and evaluating non-standard customer shipping terms, and ensuring consistent commitment to integrity and ethical values in documenting and recording revenue arrangements.
Information Produced by the Entity – We did not have effective controls over the adequate testing of reports used in the operation of controls.
Income Tax Controls - We did not operate effective controls surrounding deferred tax assets and liabilities and timeliness of performance of controls.
Information Technology General Controls – We did not operate effective information technology general controls (“ITGC’s”) in the areas of user access, segregation of duties, and data processing related to certain information technology systems.
Delivery Terms - In the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company entered a significant sales agreement with an existing customer which was subject to unique delivery terms. In reviewing the accounting for the revenue transaction, our management identified a deficiency in the effectiveness of a control intended to properly document and review relevant facts in connection with revenue recognition related to such transaction. Accordingly, a material error was detected in recorded revenue in our 2022 preliminary consolidated financial statements as a result of this misapplication of U.S. GAAP. The December 31, 2022 consolidated financial

statements included in the 2022 Form 10-K filed on March 10, 2023 and in our earnings press release filed on February 16, 2023 with our Current Report on Form 8-K were corrected prior to issuance.

Remediation Plan and Status for Reported Material Weaknesses
We have been working and are currently working to remediate the material weaknesses described above, including assessing the need for additional remediation steps and implementing additional measures to remediate the underlying causes that gave rise to the material weaknesses. The Company is committed to a strong internal control environment as well as integrity and ethical values to ensure that a proper, consistent tone is communicated throughout the organization, including the expectation that previously existing deficiencies will be remediated through implementation of processes and controls to ensure strict compliance with GAAP and 2013 COSO framework.
As part of our commitment to strengthening our internal control over financial reporting, we have initiated or completed various personnel actions and remedial actions under the oversight of the Audit Committee, including:

Initiated review and plan to enhance processes and controls around the IT environment and the use of key IT applications, including the storage, maintenance, the accessibility of transactional documentation, and the creation of key commercial documents within the Company’s Oracle system.
Initiated review and plan to enhance processes and controls around internal control documentation and document retention.
Review and design/improve the corporate compliance program', including:
Initiated a plan to Conduct an updated corporate risk assessment.
Completed a review, assessment, and update of the corporate code of conduct.
Issued statement from CEO on commitment to compliance and ethics and assess methods to regularly demonstrate effective “tone at the top” to foster culture of compliance
Plan to provide training to individuals who provide certifications or representations in connection with the company’s financial reporting on the meaning of the representations included therein.
Plan to develop and provide training throughout the organization on revenue recognition principles relating to the Company’s business, including specific training on issues discovered in the review.
Assessed, enhanced, and promoted the use of the whistleblower hotline, including making the hotline available to external parties
Initiated an assessment and plan to enhance controls for corporate oversight of third-party manufacturers..
Initiated a review and plan to assess the sufficiency of internal audit resources.
Completed a review of all incentive and bonus compensation.
To address certain control activities related to material weakness in Revenue Recognition:
Initiated a review and plan to improve internal controls and processes related to capturing and managing changes to transaction terms, including required documentation and approvals.
Plan to evaluate the adequacy of internal controls related to warehousing provided in connection with product sales.
Initiated a review and plan to improve internal controls and processes for customer refusal of delivery or indication of intent to return an order, including timely notification to designated accounting personnel.
Plan to assess and enhance process for use of freight forwarders to address specific risks.
Plan to assess and enhance corporate oversight of regional finance and accounting personnel.
Plan to assess the adequacy of staffing in the accounting function.
Plan to assess and enhance the contract review process to address financial reporting risk, including those related to inconsistencies in terms between the contract and transaction documents and non-standard transaction terms.
In addition to the remedial actions planned and undertaken under the oversight of the Audit Committee, we are in the process of, and continue to focus on, strengthening our internal controls over financial reporting to remediate the material weaknesses. Management’s additional initiated and completed remediation efforts for each identified material weakness include the following:

38

Asia Region
On April 5, 2024, the Company consummated the sale of its Asia operations to Korea-based DASAN Networks Inc. (DNI) and therefore, no longer needs to maintain internal controls over financial reporting for operations in the Asia region.

Revenue Recognition and Delivery Terms
Subsequent to the discovery of the revenue recognition material weakness, we initiated or completed the following remedial actions starting in the third quarter of 2023:
Initiated the design and implementation of enhanced internal controls surrounding identification, review and analysis of key transaction terms including documentation and approvals affecting revenue recognition for product sales orders to ensure that transactions are recorded in accordance with Company’s policies and GAAP.
Initiated an evaluation of the adequacy and efficacy of controls related to warehousing provided in connection with product sales.
Initiated an evaluation of the adequacy and efficacy of controls and processes for customer refusal of delivery or indication of intent to return an order, including timely notification to designated accounting personnel.
We have enhanced our quarterly contract review process by implementing a quarterly certification program to ensure timely communication of modification of transaction terms by sales and operations personnel to identify inconsistencies between the contract and transaction documents and non-standard transaction terms.
We implemented participation in revenue recognition training programs by Company personnel.
Information Produced by the Entity
Completed a review of controls over reports as part of the Company’s Q1 2023 implementation of Oracle Cloud.
Initiated a plan to enhance documentation retention policies around report parameters
Initiated a review of all reports used in controls in order to fully identify the control owners and provide training on appropriate control performance and documentation.
Income Tax Controls
Initiated our review of remedial actions to be taken to address the lack of sufficient and accurate support used in the preparation of the tax provision.
Initiated our review of remedial actions to be taken to address the lack of timeliness in the performance of existing controls over the preparation of the tax provision.
The material weaknesses will not be considered remediated until the applicable remedial controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively. Additional remediation measures may be required, which may require additional implementation time. We will continue to assess the effectiveness of our remediation efforts in connection with our evaluations of internal control over financial reporting.

We can give no assurance that the measures we take will remediate the material weaknesses that we identified or that any additional material weaknesses will not arise in the future. We will continue to monitor the effectiveness of these and other processes, procedures and controls and will make any further changes management determines appropriate.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Except for the material weaknesses described above, no other change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2023, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1.    Legal Proceedings
Plume
On October 10, 2022, Plume Design, Inc. (“Plume”) filed suit against DZS in the Superior Court of the State of Delaware, alleging that DZS breached a reseller contract with Plume and seeking $24.75 million in damages. The parties have completed briefing on dispositive motions, and a trial is currently set for October 7, 2024. DZS intends to vigorously defend this lawsuit.
Class Action
In June and August of 2023, DZS shareholders filed three putative securities class actions related to DZS’s June 1, 2023 Form 8-K announcing the Company’s intention to restate its financial statements for the first quarter of 2023.  Each suit was filed in the Eastern District of Texas.  All three cases allege violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act against DZS, its Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer. The cases are: (1) Shim v. DZS et al., filed June 14, 2023; (2) Link v. DZS et al., filed June 27, 2023; and (3) Cody v. DZS et al., filed August 9, 2023.
Three potential lead plaintiffs filed applications for appointment on August 14, 2023. On September 12, 2023, the cases were consolidated under the lead case Shim v. DZS et al. The plaintiffs are seeking unspecified damages, interest, fees, costs and interest. As of July 31, 2024, the court has not yet ruled on the appointment of a lead plaintiff and the Defendants have not yet responded to any complaint. DZS intends to vigorously defend these lawsuits.
In light of the events giving rise to the restatement, DZS began cooperating, and intends to continue to cooperate, with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), which has informed DZS that it is investigating potential violations of the federal securities laws related to DZS.
On June 3, 2024, counsel for a shareholder of the Company sent the Company a demand for certain books and records related to events related to the Company’s June 1, 2023 Form 8-K. The demand was made pursuant to Section 220 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. While the Company does not concede the demand is proper, it has produced certain records to the shareholder.
In addition to the matters discussed above and the Notice discussed in Note 13 of the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, from time to time, the Company is subject to various legal proceedings, claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of these matters is currently not determinable, the Company records an accrual for legal contingencies that it has determined to be probable to the extent that the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company does not expect that the ultimate costs to resolve these matters will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable rulings could occur. If an unfavorable ruling were to occur, there exists the possibility of a material adverse impact on the results of operations and cash flows of the reporting period in which the ruling occurs, or future periods.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
A list of factors that could materially affect our business, financial condition or operating results is described in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in the 2022 Form 10-K/A. There have been no material changes to our risk factors from those disclosed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in the 2022 Form 10-K/A.

Amendment Description Subsequent to the issuance of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2023 and as previously disclosed on June 1, 2023, Management determined that the Company’s previously issued unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2023 (the “Q1 2023 Financial Statements”) contained a material accounting error relating to the timing of revenue recognition with respect to certain customer projects. As a result of this error, the Audit Committee determined that the Company’s Q1 2023 Financial Statements should no longer be relied upon and should be restated. In addition, as a result of the error, the Audit Committee initiated a review of the Company’s accounting for revenue recognition and the extent to which these matters affect the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting (the “Review”).On November 9, 2023, the Company disclosed that although the Review was still ongoing, based on preliminary findings, management had determined that the Company’s previously issued audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Annual Financial Statements”), as well as the Company’s previously issued unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for each of the three months ended March 31, 2022, the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 (collectively, the “2022 Interim Financial Statements” and, together with the 2022 Annual Financial Statements, the “2022 Financial Statements” and, together with the Q1 2023 Financial Statements, the “Affected Financial Statements”), should no longer be relied upon and should be restated due to accounting errors in each of the 2022 Financial Statements relating to revenue recognition. During the course of the Review, and during the Company's subsequent assessment of its accounting practices, accounting and financial reporting errors were identified. Specifically, errors in timing of revenue recognition relating to incorrect shipping dates, incorrect or unapproved shipping terms, incorrect timing of the transfer of control, and incorrect evaluation of the existence of contracts. As a result, revenue, accounts receivable, contract assets and liabilities, inventory and cost of sales, goodwill, and the tax provision contained errors which resulted in corrections in accounting under U.S. GAAP related to the timing of revenue recognition under certain customer projects. See Restatement Note 1 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A. We are filing this Amendment No. 1 to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Form 10-Q/A”) for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2023, which was filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on May 9, 2023 (the “Original Filing”), to reflect restatements of the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at March 31, 2022 and March 31 2023, the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2023, and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2023, and the related notes thereto.The following sections in the Original Filing are revised in this Form 10-Q/A, solely as a result of, and to reflect, the restatement:Part I – Item.

Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(1) Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Description of Business
DZS Inc. (referred to, collectively with its subsidiaries, as “DZS” or the “Company”) is global provider of access and optical networking infrastructure and cloud software solutions that enable the emerging hyper-connected, hyper-broadband world and broadband experiences. The Company provides a wide array of reliable, cost-effective networking technologies and software to a diverse customer base.
DZS was incorporated under the laws of the state of Delaware in June 1999. The Company is headquartered in Plano, Texas with contract manufacturers and original design manufacturers located in the U.S, India, Korea, China, Taiwan, and Vietnam. The Company also maintains offices to provide sales and customer support at global locations. Through 2022, we also utilized our in-house manufacturing facility in Seminole, Florida. In October 2022, we announced an agreement with Fabrinet, a third-party provider of electro-mechanical and electronic manufacturing and distribution services, to transition the sourcing, procurement, order-fulfillment, manufacturing and return merchandise authorization activities in the Company's Seminole facility to Fabrinet. The transition began in October 2022 and substantially completed in the beginning of 2023, whereupon the Company no longer manufactures its products.
(b) Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 3 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on August 12, 2024. For a complete description of what the Company believes to be the critical accounting policies and estimates used in the preparation of its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2022.
All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the current interim period are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the current year or any other period.
(c) Risks and Uncertainties
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.
We continue to be exposed to macroeconomic pressures in the post-COVID-19 environment, including concerns about energy costs, geopolitical issues, inflation, the availability and cost of credit, business and consumer confidence, and unemployment. We have seen improvement in our supply chain in 2023 as supply chain pricing, freight and logistics costs, product and component availability, and extended lead-times which were a challenge in 2021 and 2022 begin to alleviate in 2023 as the world economy recovers from the COVID-19 pandemic. We expect elevated costs for components and expedite fees to further improve throughout 2023.
We conduct significant business in South Korea, Japan, Vietnam, India, Spain, and Canada, as well as in other countries in Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Latin America, all of which subject us to foreign currency exchange rate risk. The local currencies of our significant foreign subsidiaries are the South Korean Won ("KRW"), Japanese Yen ("JPY"), Euro ("EUR), and Pound Sterling ("GBP"). Revenues and operating expenses are typically denominated in the local currency of each country and result from transactions by our operations in these countries. However, a significant portion of our international cost of sales is denominated in the U.S. Dollar (“USD”).
As of March 31, 2023, the Company's debt obligation under the Term Loan was $23.7 million, net of unamortized issuance cost of $0.4 million, of which $1.3 million is scheduled for payment in the next 12 months. Due to the risk of non-compliance with certain financial covenants in the next 12 months we classified the entire amount as a current liability. As of March 31, 2023, we were in discussion with the lenders to amend the debt agreement to mitigate the risk of non-compliance. Refer to Note 16 Subsequent events for further information about the amendment and subsequent termination of the JPMorgan Credit Agreement.
In addition to negotiating for revised financial covenants, we continue to focus on cost management, operating efficiency and efficient discretionary spending. Management is actively taking measures to enhance profitability and liquidity, including reducing the Company’s cost structure and cash outflows, including its investment in inventory, and managing receivable balances through aggressive collection efforts and tighter customers payment terms. These plans are not completely within the Company’s control, as some actions are dependent on the Company’s lenders, vendors and customers. However, the Company believes that it will maintain liquidity in the next 12 months to support its operations.
(d) Use of Estimates
The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
(e) Restatement
Subsequent to the issuance of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2023 and as previously disclosed on June 1, 2023, Management determined that the Company’s previously issued unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2023 (the “Q1 2023 Financial Statements”) contained an accounting error relating to the timing of revenue recognition with respect to certain customer projects. As a result of this error, the Audit Committee determined that the Company’s Q1 2023 Financial Statements should no longer be relied upon and should be restated. In addition, as a result of the error, the Audit Committee initiated a review of the Company’s accounting for revenue recognition and the extent to which these matters affect the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting (the “Review”).
On November 9, 2023, the Company disclosed that although the Review was still ongoing, based on preliminary findings, management had determined that the Company’s previously issued audited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Annual Financial Statements”), as well as the Company’s previously issued unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for each of the three months ended March 31, 2022, the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 (collectively, the “2022 Interim Financial Statements” and, together with the 2022 Annual Financial Statements, the “2022 Financial Statements” and, together with the Q1 2023 Financial Statements, the “Affected Financial Statements”), should no longer be relied upon and should be restated due to accounting errors in each of the 2022 Financial Statements relating to revenue recognition.
During the course of the Review, and during the Company's subsequent assessment of its accounting practices, accounting and financial reporting errors were identified. Specifically, errors in timing of revenue recognition relating to incorrect shipping dates, incorrect or unapproved shipping terms, incorrect timing of the transfer of control, and incorrect evaluation of the existence of contracts. As a result, revenue, accounts receivable, contract assets and liabilities, and inventory and cost of sales contained errors which resulted in corrections in accounting under U.S. GAAP related to the timing of revenue recognition under certain customer projects. Accordingly, the Company is restating its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2023, to correct these errors, the most significant of which are described below.
The amounts in the "As Previously Reported" columns are amounts derived from the Company's previously filed financial statements in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 9, 2023. The amounts in the "Adjustments" columns present the impact of the accounting error corrections relating to the timing of revenue recognition with respect to certain customer projects along with other corrections to the Company's previously filed financial statements. The description of the corrections is referenced by (a) through (d) in the tables below. The amounts in the "As Restated" columns are the updated amounts including the impacts from the adjustments.
The following table presents the effect of the restatement on the Company's previously reported unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2023 (in thousands, except par value).

(g) Concentration of Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, accounts receivables, and contract assets. Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash consist of financial deposits and money market accounts that are principally held with various domestic and international financial institutions with high credit standing. As of March 31, 2023, the Company had cash accounts in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insured limits.
The Company’s customers include competitive and incumbent local exchange carriers, competitive access providers, internet service providers, wireless carriers and resellers serving these markets. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and generally does not require collateral. Allowances are maintained for potential doubtful accounts based upon the expected collectability of accounts receivable using historical loss rates adjusted for customer-specific factors and current economic conditions. The Company determines historical loss rates on a rational and systematic basis. The Company performs periodic assessments of its customers’ liquidity and financial condition through analysis of information obtained from credit rating agencies, financial statement review and historical and current collection trends.
Activity under the Company’s allowance for credit losses consists of the following (in thousands):

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, two customers accounted for 13% and 16% of net revenue. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, three customers accounted for 15%, 14%, and 13% of net revenue, respectively.
As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, no customers represented more than 10% of net accounts receivable.
As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, net accounts receivables from customers in countries other than the United States represented 81%.
In 2017, the Company entered into an agreement with a customer in India to supply product for a state sponsored broadband project. The Company substantially completed its obligations under the agreement in 2018. The Company billed the customer, which is a state government sponsored entity, approximately $59.0 million and collected payments of approximately $41.7 million by December 31, 2020. In late March 2021, the customer’s state government parent experienced difficulty passing a budget impacting the ability of the customer to make remaining agreed-upon payments to us. In light of this development, the Company recorded an allowance that covered the entire balance unpaid by the customer. Subsequent to March 2021, the Company recovered approximately $2.5 million of accounts receivable related to the customer. As of March 31, 2023 the Company has a recorded allowance for credit losses of $13.1 million related to this receivable. The Company will continue to pursue collection of the entire outstanding balance and any amounts collected will be recognized in the period which they are received. In the event the Company’s efforts to collect from this customer prove unsuccessful, DZS may seek payment through other means, including through legal action.
(h) Business Combinations
We account for business combinations using the acquisition method, which requires the identification of the acquirer, the determination of the acquisition date and the allocation of the purchase price paid by the acquirer to the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, including any contingent consideration and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at their acquisition date fair values. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired, including the amount assigned to identifiable intangible assets. Identifiable intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their expected useful lives. Acquisition-related costs are expensed in the periods in which the costs are incurred. The results of operations of acquired businesses are included in our consolidated financial statements from the acquisition date.
(i) Restructuring and Other Charges
From time to time, the Company takes actions to align its workforce, facilities and operating costs with perceived market opportunities, business strategies and changes in market and business conditions. The Company recognizes a liability for the cost associated with an exit or disposal activity in the period in which the liability is incurred, except for one-time employee termination benefits, which are measured at the communication date and recognized ratably over the required service period, if any.
(j) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers, which requires the Company to apply ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities from contracts with customers acquired in a business combination. Before the update such balances were measured and recognized at fair value on the acquisition date. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including in interim periods. The Company adopted these requirements prospectively, effective on the first day of the second quarter of year 2022. There was no material impact on our consolidated financial statements on the adoption date.
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which requires the Company to measure and recognize expected credit losses for financial assets held and not accounted for at fair value through net income. In November 2018, April 2019 and May 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, ASU No. 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, and ASU No. 2019-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief, which provided additional implementation guidance on the previously issued ASU. The Company adopted the updated guidance on January 1, 2022, utilizing the modified retrospective transition method and recorded a cumulative-effect adjustment of $0.4 million to accumulated deficit.

ASSIA Acquisition
On May 27, 2022, the Company acquired certain assets and liabilities of Adaptive Spectrum and Signal Alignment, Incorporated (“ASSIA”), an industry pioneer of broadband access quality-of-experience and service assurance software solutions (the “ASSIA Acquisition”). The core assets acquired include the CloudCheck® Wi-Fi experience management and Expresse® access network optimization software solutions.
The initial purchase consideration was $25.0 million, including a $2.5 million holdback that will be released in 13 months following the transaction close date. In October 2022, the Company agreed to pay an additional $1.35 million of purchase consideration to settle certain unresolved matters related to the ASSIA Acquisition.
The acquisition was recorded as a business combination with valuation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed recorded at their acquisition date fair value determined using primarily level three inputs, defined as unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. The Company used a combination of income approach and market approach to determine the fair value of intangible assets acquired. Significant unobservable inputs included estimated future cash flows and a discount rate. Cash flow projections were based on management’s estimates of revenue growth rates and operating margins, EBITDA margins, consideration of industry and market conditions, terminal growth rates and management’s estimates of working capital requirements. The discount rate of 23% was based on a weighted average cost of capital adjusted for the relevant risk associated with the characteristics of intangible assets acquired. Under the market approach, the Company utilized an analysis of royalty rate licensing data. We completed the purchase price allocation for ASSIA Acquisition in the first quarter of 2023.
The following summarizes the final fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of the ASSIA Acquisition (in thousands):

The purchase price allocation resulted in the recognition of goodwill of approximately $6.4 million, which included the experienced workforce and the expected synergies from combining operations. The Company expects no goodwill to be deductible for tax purposes.

Fair Value Measurement
(3) Fair Value Measurement
The Company utilizes a fair value hierarchy that is intended to increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures. The fair value hierarchy is based on inputs to valuation techniques that are used to measure fair value that are either observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability based on market data obtained from independent sources while unobservable inputs reflect a reporting entity’s pricing based upon their own market assumptions. The fair value hierarchy consists of the following three levels:
Level 1    Inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2    Inputs are quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in an active market, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable and market-corroborated inputs which are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3    Inputs are derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or value drivers are unobservable
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis:
The carrying values of financial instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts and other receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values based on their short-term nature. The Company classifies its cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash within Level 1 and other short-term assets and liabilities within Level 2. The carrying value of the Company's debt approximates its fair values based on the current rates available to the Company for debt of similar terms and maturities. The Company classifies its debt within Level 2.
The Company classifies its contingent liability from Optelian acquisition within Level 3 as it includes inputs not observable in the market. The Company estimates the fair value of contingent consideration as the present value of the expected contingent payments, determined using the revenue forecast for certain Optelian products through the end of 2023. The fair value of contingent liability is generally sensitive to changes in the revenue forecast during the payout period. The change in the respective fair value is included in selling, marketing, general and administrative expenses on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive loss.
The following table reconciles the beginning and ending balances of the Company’s Level 3 contingent liability (in thousands):

Warranties
The Company accrues warranty costs based on historical trends for the expected material and labor costs to provide warranty services. The Company's standard warranty period is one year from the date of shipment with the ability for customers to purchase an extended warranty of up to five years from the date of shipment. The following table summarizes the activity related to the product warranty liability:

Contract Balances
The Company records contract assets when it has a right to consideration and records accounts receivable when it has an unconditional right to consideration. Contract liabilities consist of cash payments received (or unconditional rights to receive cash) in advance of fulfilling performance obligations. The majority of the Company's performance obligations in its contracts with customers relate to contracts with duration of less than one year.
The opening and closing balances of current and long-term contract assets and contract liabilities related to contracts with customers are as follows:
Contract
assets
Contract
liabilities
December 31, 2022$576 $26,493 
March 31, 2023 (As Restated)$605 $23,198 
The decrease in contract liabilities during the three months ended March 31, 2023 was primarily due to the revenue recognition criteria being met for previously deferred revenue, partially offset by invoiced amounts that did not yet meet the revenue recognition criteria. The amount of revenue recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2023 that was included in the prior period contract liability balance was $8.5 million. The amount of revenue recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2022 that was included in the prior period contract liability balance was $2.4 million. This revenue consists of services provided to customers who had been invoiced prior to the current year. We expect to recognize approximately 72% of outstanding contract liabilities as revenue over the next 12 months and the remainder thereafter.
The balance of contract cost deferred as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $0.5 million and $1.0 million, respectively. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recorded $0.5 million in amortization related to contract cost deferred as of December 31, 2022. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recorded $0.2 million in amortization related to contract cost deferred as of December 31, 2021.

On February 15, 2023, the Company entered into a Second Amendment to Credit Agreement (the "Second Amendment"), which amends the Credit Agreement dated February 9, 2022 (as previously amended on May 27, 2022).

The Third Amendment, among other things, (1) modifies the financial covenants to eliminate the minimum EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Facility) of ($1 million) for the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2023, (2) decreases the calculation of the borrowing base by $5 million through June 30, 2023 and an additional $5 million thereafter, (3) reduces the amount of the Revolving Credit Facility commitment to $25 million effective June 15, 2023, and (4) increases the applicable margin for adjusted term SOFR borrowings and prime rate borrowings to 4.5% and 3.5%, respectively, when the Company’s leverage ratio exceeds 2.50 to 1.00.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]  
Net Income (Loss) Per Share
(11) Net Loss Per Share
Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The calculation of diluted net loss per share gives effect to common stock equivalents; however, potential common stock equivalents are excluded if their effect is antidilutive. Potential common stock equivalents are composed of incremental shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options and the vesting of restricted stock units. In periods when a net loss is reported, all common stock equivalents are excluded from the calculation because they would have an anti-dilutive effect, meaning the loss per share would be reduced. Therefore, in periods when a loss is reported, basic and dilutive loss per share are the same.
The following table is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator in the basic and diluted net loss per share calculation (in thousands, except per share data) for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and 2022:

Performance Guarantees
In the normal course of operations, from time to time, the Company arranges for the issuance of various types of performance guarantees, such as standby letters of credit or surety bonds. These instruments are arrangements under which the financial institution or surety provides a financial guarantee that the Company will perform in accordance with contractual or legal obligations. As of March 31, 2023, the Company had $15.6 million of performance guarantees in the form of bank guarantees or surety bonds guaranteed by third parties.
Trade Compliance Matter
During the first quarter of 2022, the Company received a notice letter from the Office of the Commissioner of Customs, Chennai II of the India Department of Revenue (the “Notice”) claiming the Company had allegedly mis-declared and incorrectly classified certain products imported to India by the Company at the time of clearance of customs. The Notice claims that due to such mis-declaration and incorrect classification of the imported products, the Company and its contract manufacturer in India underpaid duties approximating INR 299.6 million ($3.6 million USD based on exchange rates as of March 31, 2023) related to such products. The documents relied upon in the Notice were requested by the Company, however they are yet to be received. In the second quarter of 2023, the Company received a second notice letter issued by the Office of the Principal Commissioner of Customs (Air Cargo) Complex, Chennai VII Commissionerate claiming the alleged underpaid duties approximated INR 389.3 million ($4.7 million based on exchange rates as of March 31, 2023). The two notice letters cover substantially the same shipments and overlap in scope. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself in this matter. As we have not yet received the full contents of the Notice, we are unable to estimate a potential loss related to this matter, if any, which could range up to the full amount of the alleged unpaid duties, plus penalties and interest.
Plume
On October 10, 2022, Plume Design, Inc. (“Plume”) filed suit against DZS in the Superior Court of the State of Delaware, alleging that DZS breached a reseller contract with Plume and seeking $24.75 million in damages. The parties have completed briefing on dispositive motions, and a trial is currently set for October 7, 2024. DZS intends to vigorously defend this lawsuit.
In addition to the matters discussed above, from time to time, the Company is subject to various legal proceedings, claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of these matters is currently not determinable, the Company records an accrual for legal contingencies that it has determined to be probable to the extent that the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company does not expect that the ultimate costs to resolve these matters will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable rulings could occur. If an unfavorable ruling were to occur, there exists the possibility of a material adverse impact on the results of operations and cash flows of the reporting period in which the ruling occurs, or future periods.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation
(b) Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 3 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2022 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on August 12, 2024. For a complete description of what the Company believes to be the critical accounting policies and estimates used in the preparation of its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2022.
All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the current interim period are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the current year or any other period.
Risks and Uncertainties
(c) Risks and Uncertainties
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.
We continue to be exposed to macroeconomic pressures in the post-COVID-19 environment, including concerns about energy costs, geopolitical issues, inflation, the availability and cost of credit, business and consumer confidence, and unemployment. We have seen improvement in our supply chain in 2023 as supply chain pricing, freight and logistics costs, product and component availability, and extended lead-times which were a challenge in 2021 and 2022 begin to alleviate in 2023 as the world economy recovers from the COVID-19 pandemic. We expect elevated costs for components and expedite fees to further improve throughout 2023.
We conduct significant business in South Korea, Japan, Vietnam, India, Spain, and Canada, as well as in other countries in Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Latin America, all of which subject us to foreign currency exchange rate risk. The local currencies of our significant foreign subsidiaries are the South Korean Won ("KRW"), Japanese Yen ("JPY"), Euro ("EUR), and Pound Sterling ("GBP"). Revenues and operating expenses are typically denominated in the local currency of each country and result from transactions by our operations in these countries. However, a significant portion of our international cost of sales is denominated in the U.S. Dollar (“USD”).
As of March 31, 2023, the Company's debt obligation under the Term Loan was $23.7 million, net of unamortized issuance cost of $0.4 million, of which $1.3 million is scheduled for payment in the next 12 months. Due to the risk of non-compliance with certain financial covenants in the next 12 months we classified the entire amount as a current liability. As of March 31, 2023, we were in discussion with the lenders to amend the debt agreement to mitigate the risk of non-compliance. Refer to Note 16 Subsequent events for further information about the amendment and subsequent termination of the JPMorgan Credit Agreement.
In addition to negotiating for revised financial covenants, we continue to focus on cost management, operating efficiency and efficient discretionary spending. Management is actively taking measures to enhance profitability and liquidity, including reducing the Company’s cost structure and cash outflows, including its investment in inventory, and managing receivable balances through aggressive collection efforts and tighter customers payment terms. These plans are not completely within the Company’s control, as some actions are dependent on the Company’s lenders, vendors and customers. However, the Company believes that it will maintain liquidity in the next 12 months to support its operations.
Use of Estimates
(d) Use of Estimates
The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Concentration of Risk
(g) Concentration of Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, accounts receivables, and contract assets. Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash consist of financial deposits and money market accounts that are principally held with various domestic and international financial institutions with high credit standing. As of March 31, 2023, the Company had cash accounts in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insured limits.
The Company’s customers include competitive and incumbent local exchange carriers, competitive access providers, internet service providers, wireless carriers and resellers serving these markets. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and generally does not require collateral. Allowances are maintained for potential doubtful accounts based upon the expected collectability of accounts receivable using historical loss rates adjusted for customer-specific factors and current economic conditions. The Company determines historical loss rates on a rational and systematic basis. The Company performs periodic assessments of its customers’ liquidity and financial condition through analysis of information obtained from credit rating agencies, financial statement review and historical and current collection trends.
Business Combinations
(h) Business Combinations
We account for business combinations using the acquisition method, which requires the identification of the acquirer, the determination of the acquisition date and the allocation of the purchase price paid by the acquirer to the identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, including any contingent consideration and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at their acquisition date fair values. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired, including the amount assigned to identifiable intangible assets. Identifiable intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their expected useful lives. Acquisition-related costs are expensed in the periods in which the costs are incurred. The results of operations of acquired businesses are included in our consolidated financial statements from the acquisition date.
Restructuring and Other Charges
(i) Restructuring and Other Charges
From time to time, the Company takes actions to align its workforce, facilities and operating costs with perceived market opportunities, business strategies and changes in market and business conditions. The Company recognizes a liability for the cost associated with an exit or disposal activity in the period in which the liability is incurred, except for one-time employee termination benefits, which are measured at the communication date and recognized ratably over the required service period, if any.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
(j) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers, which requires the Company to apply ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities from contracts with customers acquired in a business combination. Before the update such balances were measured and recognized at fair value on the acquisition date. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including in interim periods. The Company adopted these requirements prospectively, effective on the first day of the second quarter of year 2022. There was no material impact on our consolidated financial statements on the adoption date.
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which requires the Company to measure and recognize expected credit losses for financial assets held and not accounted for at fair value through net income. In November 2018, April 2019 and May 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, ASU No. 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, and ASU No. 2019-05, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief, which provided additional implementation guidance on the previously issued ASU. The Company adopted the updated guidance on January 1, 2022, utilizing the modified retrospective transition method and recorded a cumulative-effect adjustment of $0.4 million to accumulated deficit.
