Thank you, Gary. Thank you all for joining today's conference call to discuss Inpixon's corporate developments and financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2019. With us today are Nadir Ali, the Company's CEO; and Wendy Loundermon, VP of Finance. At 4:05 PM Eastern Time today Inpixon released financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2019. If you have not received Inpixon's earnings release, please visit the Investors page at www.inpixon.com. During the course of this conference call, the Company will be making forward-looking statements. The Company cautions you that any statement that is not a statement of historical fact is a forward-looking statement. This includes any projections of earnings, revenues, cash or other statements relating to the Company's future financial results; any statements about plans, strategies or objectives of management for future operations; any statements regarding planned acquisitions or strategic partnerships, any statements concerning proposed new products, any statements regarding anticipated new relationship or agreements, any statements regarding expectations for the success of the Company's products in the US and international markets, any statements regarding future economic conditions or performance, statements of belief and any statements of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. These statements are based on expectations and assumptions as of the date of this conference call and are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. Some of these risks are described in the section of today's press release titled Cautionary Note on Forward-Looking Statements, and in the public periodic reports the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Investors or potential investors should read these risks. Inpixon assumes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect future events or actual outcomes and does not intend to do so. In addition, to supplement the GAAP numbers, the Company has provided non-GAAP adjusted net loss and net loss per share information in addition to non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA information. The Company believes that these non-GAAP numbers provide meaningful supplemental information and are helpful in assessing historical and future performance. A table reconciling the GAAP information to the non-GAAP information is included in the Company's financial release. It is now my pleasure to turn the call over to Nadir Ali, Inpixon's CEO. Nadir?

Thanks, Scott, and good afternoon, everyone. Welcome to our first quarter 2019 earnings call and corporate update. I’m happy to report that we just posted year-over-year revenue growth in this quarter as well as sequential growth in revenue in each of the last three quarters since our separation from Sysorex. Our Q1 year-over-year revenue increased by approximately 65% over Q1 2018, which was revenue of $849,000. Our revenue for the first quarter of 2019 was $1.4 million versus $1.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2018, a 27% increase sequentially. This followed our fourth quarter of 2018 revenue growth of 20% as compared to the third quarter of 2018. I’m confident that we will continue to build on this trend as we focus our efforts and resources on the growth and development of our IPA business. I want to take a moment here to reflect and bring to your attention the significant of these numbers. As a reminder, in 2018 when we completed the spinoff of Sysorex from Inpixon resulting in two separate independent companies each focused on their own core competencies, for Inpixon stakeholders this was a new beginning. In prior quarters following the spinoff there has been confusion among our shareholders and analysts who have been evaluating our financial results with a comparison to historical estimates determined on a consolidated basis with the legacy Sysorex business. This comparison fails to account for the effect of the spinoff of that business which is represented in the deconsolidated operations line in our year-over-year comparisons for the prior year period. The consistent growth over the last three quarters is representative of the independent performance of Inpixon’s IPA business. Inpixon is now a pure play in a rapidly growing indoor positioning analytics industry. The Indoor Positioning Systems or IPS market is currently…

Thank you, Nadir. Total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2019 were $1.4 million, compared to $849,000 for the comparable period in the prior year or an increase of $551,000 or approximately 65%. Revenues increased in the first quarter of 2019 over the prior period due to an increase in our IPA revenues resulting from an increased focus on our IPA product line. Gross profit for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 was $1 million compared to $584,000 for the comparable period in 2018. The gross profit margin for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was 75% compared to 69% for the three months ended March 31, 2018. This increase in margin is primarily due to the increase in higher margin IPA revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2019. GAAP net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $5.2 million compared to $6.2 million for the prior year period. This lower loss of $1 million was primarily attributable to the higher margin IPA revenue in the three months ended March 31, 2019 and the $1.7 million loss from deconsolidated operations of the spinoff of Sysorex during the three months ended March 31, 2018. GAAP net loss per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2019 was a $1.42 per share compared to a net loss per share of $73.88 per share for the comparable period in 2018. Pro-forma non-GAAP net loss per basic and diluted common share for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was a loss of $0.71 compared to a loss of $49.45 per share for the prior year period. Non-GAAP net loss per share is defined as net loss per basic and diluted share adjusted for deemed dividends and non-cash items including stock-based compensation, amortization of intangibles and one-time charges including gain or loss on the settlement of obligations, gain on earnout, acquisition costs, provision for doubtful accounts and the costs associated with public offerings. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was a loss of $2.6 million compared to a loss of $3.4 million for the prior year period. Non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income or loss before interest, provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization plus adjustments for deemed dividends and other income or expense items, non-recurring items and non-cash stock-based compensation. On the balance sheet, we ended the first quarter with cash and cash equivalents of $3.8 million and total current assets of $6.8 million. Our net cash used in operations was approximately $3.5 million during the first quarter ended March 31, 2019. This concludes my comments, and I'd now like to turn the call back over to Nadir.

Thank you, Wendy. As I’ve previously mentioned Inpixon is in effect a new company with great potential and opportunities. Not only have we made strides to increase revenue but our cost structure and financial metrics have significantly improved following the divestiture of our historical infrastructure business which is no longer incorporated into our reporting. We are focused on continued growth and getting to profitability. We thank you for your continued support. And with that, Gary, we're ready to open the call for any questions.

[Operator instructions]. Our first question comes from Ross Silver with Sylva International. Please go ahead.

Well, first and foremost congratulations Nadir and Wendy on the quarter, definitely some pretty exciting progress here. And also the Locality acquisition looks very promising as well. But so as it relates to your types of customers that are contributing to this 60% year-over-year revenue growth that you experienced on a quarterly basis, can you talk a little more about what the -- who those customers are and why you're winning this new business?

Nadir Ali

Analyst

Sure that’s a great question. We're continuing to expand into a verity of verticals. The growth in Q1 was particularly interesting because it was -- a big percentage of that growth was in the enterprise space. Enterprise customers are starting to want to understand what's happening inside their buildings, inside their facilities and campuses, not only from a security perspective but a variety of other metrics such as visitors that are coming into their space or building management systems being integrated with where folks are and how much time they are spending in particular areas. So there is a lot of analytics that are interesting to these customers as well as the security applications for it. It’s further validated by the acquisition of one of our competitors Euclid Analytics by WeWork, right? WeWork is in all of these office buildings and space and wanted to get some understanding of location data. So we think this is a vertical that’s really going to grow and could be a great opportunity for Inpixon. So glad to see that we're starting to see that adoption with enterprise customers.

Ross Silver

Analyst

And then one follow up question as it relates to some of these RFPs. Are you starting to see the number of RFPs go up as you’re seeing more maturation and understanding of the IoT industry?

Nadir Ali

Analyst

Yes, I mean for IPA, so on the government side we certainly see RFPs, it’s not always RFPs but there is a variety of ways that customers reach out and engage with us. So whether it’s RFP or some sort of request for quotation we're definitely seeing an uptick in the sales pipeline and the business development opportunities. So RFPs makes me think more about our government customers and how they due procurement but certainly across the board I think it goes to my earlier point of we're seeing a little bit more maturity in the industry taking place and with that comes some momentum in the RFPs as well as other ways of procuring our solutions.
