1,259,966 Shares of Common Stock

493,526 Warrants to Purchase Shares of Common Stock

This prospectus relates to the offering and resale from time to time by certain selling stockholders identified herein of up to an aggregate of 1,259,966 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of VerifyMe, Inc. (“VerifyMe,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”), which includes (i) 525,543 shares of common stock (“Uplist Shares”) issued upon automatic conversion of certain senior secured convertible debentures (the “2020 Debentures”); (ii) 493,526 shares of common stock underlying warrants to purchase common stock (the “Uplist Warrants”) issued upon automatic conversion of the 2020 Debentures; (iii) 40,850 shares of common stock underlying warrants to purchase common stock (the “2020 Warrants”) issued in connection with the 2020 Debentures; (iv) 154,200 shares of common stock (the “Shares”) issued upon cancellation of certain 2020 Warrants; (v) 15,847 shares of common stock issued to the placement agents for services in connection with the private placement of the 2020 Debentures and 2020 Warrants completed on March 6, 2020 (the “Private Placement”); and (vi) 30,000 shares of common stock issued to a consultant for services in connection with our Nasdaq listing.

This prospectus also relates to the offering and resale from time to time by certain selling stockholders identified herein of up to an aggregate of 493,526 Uplist Warrants. We refer to the 1,259,966 shares of common stock and 493,526 Uplist Warrants being registered herein as the “Registered Securities.”

On March 6, 2020, we completed the Private Placement of $1,992,000 of 2020 Debentures. Purchasers of the 2020 Debentures also received the 2020 Warrants in the Private Placement. On June 15, 2020, we entered into agreements with twenty-three of the twenty-five holders of the 2020 Debentures. Pursuant to the agreements, the 2020 Debentures automatically converted upon closing of our Uplist Transaction on June 22, 2020 into an aggregate of 637,513 Uplist Shares and 573,479 Uplist Warrants underlying the units sold in the Uplist Transaction. Additionally, certain 2020 Warrants were cancelled pursuant to the agreements and in lieu thereof we issued to the holders of the cancelled 2020 Warrants an aggregate of 179,200 Shares. Of this amount, 79,953 Uplist Shares, 79,953 Uplist Warrants, and 25,000 Shares were issued to four of our directors and are not being registered herein for resale. Two holders representing $200,000 in the aggregate of the 2020 Debentures did not sign the agreements. Upon closing of the Uplist Transaction, the two holders’ 2020 Debentures were also automatically converted into an aggregate of 64,034 Uplist Shares pursuant to a securities purchase agreement we entered into with the 2020 Debenture holders. The two holders’ 2020 Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 81,700 shares of common stock at $4.59 per share remain outstanding.

The selling stockholders may offer, sell or distribute all or a portion of the Registered Securities publicly or through private transactions at prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. The selling stockholders may retain underwriters, dealers or agents from time to time. See “Plan of Distribution” for more information about how the selling stockholders may sell the Registered Securities.

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Registered Securities except for proceeds from the exercise of the Uplist Warrants and the 2020 Warrants, but we agreed to bear the expenses relating to the registration of the Registered Securities.

Our common stock and warrants to purchase common stock are traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “VRME” and “VRMEW,” respectively. On October 8, 2020, the last reported sale price of our common stock and warrants was $3.22 per share and $1.06 per warrant, respectively.

Except as otherwise indicated, all of the share and per share information in this prospectus has been adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split of the outstanding common stock and treasury stock of the Company at a 50-to-1 ratio which became effective on June 18, 2020.

Business Overview

We are a technology solutions provider specializing in brand protection functions such as counterfeit prevention, authentication, serialization, track and trace features for labels, packaging and products. Until 2018, we were primarily engaged in the research and development of our technologies. We began to commercialize our covert luminescent pigment, RainbowSecure®, in 2018, and we also developed the patented VeriPAS™ software system in 2018 which covertly and overtly serializes products to remotely track a product’s “life cycle” for brand owners. We believe VeriPAS™ is the only invisible covert serialization and authentication solution deployed through variable digital printing on HP Indigo (a division of HP Inc.) printing systems with a smartphone tracking and authentication system. VeriPAS™ is capable of fluorescing, decoding, and verifying invisible RainbowSecure® codes in the field – designed to allow investigators to quickly and efficiently authenticate product throughout the distribution chain, including warehouses, ports of entry, retail locations, and product purchased over the Internet for inspection and investigative actions. This technology is coupled with a secure cloud based track and trace software engine which allows brands and investigators to see where products originate and where they are deployed with geo location mapping and intelligent programable alerts. Brand owners access the VeriPAS™ software over the Internet. Brand owners can then set rules of engagement, establish marketing programs for customer engagement and control, and monitor and protect their products’ “life cycle.” We have derived minimal revenue from our VeriPAS™ software system and have derived limited revenue from the sale of our RainbowSecure® technology.  

In the areas of authentication and serialization of physical goods, we offer clients the following brand protection security and anti-counterfeit technologies:

RainbowSecure® technology was our first technology to be patented. It combines an invisible ink with a proprietary tuned laser to enable counterfeit products to be exposed. In 2017, we signed a five-year contract with HP Indigo to print this technology on packages and labels on their 6000 series presses. Our technology has been tested and approved by HP Indigo 6000 series presses and more recently we have successfully run pilot production on the 7800 press which runs on HP Indigo’s newer series 4 platform, and will open up sheet-feed products like folded cartons and plastic cards. Customers can use a handheld beeping device, our VerifyMe Beepers, tuned to authenticate the unique frequency of our RainbowSecure® invisible ink, to broadcast a beeping sound to confirm the authenticity when placed on products, labels and packaging containing our RainbowSecure® ink. VerifyMe Beepers are being commercialized and leased to customers, typically for one year. In December 2017, we signed a contract with Micro Focus International PLC (“Micro Focus”) to use RainbowSecure® in their Global Product Authentication, Track and Trace (GPAS) system (software). The technology also features a unique double layer of security which remains entirely covert at all times and provides licensees with additional protection. Under the contract with Micro Focus, we have a re-seller agreement where we sell the combined Micro Focus GPAS system with our RainbowSecure® identifier under our own trademarked name, VeriPAS™. In May 2019, we entered into a strategic partnership with INX International Ink Company, the third largest producer of inks in North America, to co-develop inkjet inks to be used for inkjet printing in combination with high speed, high volume label and packaging printing presses. The specially formulated inks will enable these printing presses to print our RainbowSecure® invisible ink technology, which includes our variable VeriPAS™ serialization, track and trace technology. We believe RainbowSecure® is particularly well-suited to closed and controlled environments that want to verify transactions within a specific area, as well as labels, packaging, textiles, plastics and metal products which need authentication. We have derived limited revenue from the sale of our RainbowSecure® technology.

VeriPAS™ serialization, track and trace technology combines the covert identifier of RainbowSecure® with the Micro Focus Track and Trace software which provides brand owners geographical business intelligence on counterfeiting as well as the ability to authenticate labels, packaging and products. Using information from a smartphone screen, our VeriPAS™ technology, can provide authentication and data submission information. A customer or end-user can scan information from a product label or QR code and send it to the cloud where our VeriPAS™ software can verify authenticity of the product, as well as track and trace the product from production through delivery. Certain clients are in the testing stage with this product. To date, we have recognized minimal revenue from our VeriPAS™ software.

VeriPAS™ Smartphone Authenticator technology is a piece of hardware with a built-in lighting system and software that scans invisible RainbowSecure® codes. Product investigators attach their smartphone to this device which then reveals the hidden RainbowSecure® images on the smartphone screen which are then sent to the VeriPAS™ software in the cloud for authentication and data submission. These devices have been commercialized and are being leased to customers. Leases are typically one year in length.

VerifyMe Beeper technology is an authentication tool which we are marketing to customers in conjunction with our RainbowSecure® ink pigment. The VerifyMe Beeper is a handheld beeping device is tuned to authenticate the unique frequency of our RainbowSecure® invisible ink and will broadcast a beeping sound to confirm the authenticity when placed on products, labels and packaging containing our RainbowSecure® ink. The VerifyMe Beeper is designed for use by customers who desire instant authentication on items, such as event tickets at an entry gate. Our customized beeper will only positively identify a product bearing our unique anti-counterfeit solution. This technology is being commercialized and leased to customers, typically for one year.

VerifyMe® as Authentic® labels are dual-purpose pre-printed labels with a visible serialized QR code for consumer scanning purposes, and an invisible serialized IR code for inspector scanning, authentication, and tracking purposes. This label was developed to provide covert brand protection for on-line retailers, while enabling consumer product authentication, promotion, engagement and education through the visible serialized QR code. This technology is being tested by prospective customers.

VerifyMe® Web^TM includes, through our collaboration with Corsearch, Inc., a brand clearance and protection leader, technologies and services that better enable customers to effectively tackle counterfeit websites, domains and e-commerce platforms offering counterfeit products. To date, we have not derived revenue from this technology.

We believe that our brand protection security technologies, coupled with our contract with HP Indigo, can be used to enable brand owners to securely prevent counterfeiting, prevent product diversion and authenticate labels, packaging and products and alleviate the brand owner’s liability from counterfeit products which physically harm consumers. Our covert technologies give brand owners the ability to control, monitor and protect their products life cycle. Also, our technologies allow brand owners to prove whether the product causing an issue is authentic or counterfeit.

The Private Placement

On March 6, 2020, we completed the Private Placement of $1,992,000 of the 2020 Debentures. The 2020 Debentures provided for the automatic conversion into shares of our common stock upon the listing of our common stock on a national securities exchange at the lower of $4.00 per share or a 30% discount to any public offering price. The 2020 Debentures accrued interest at 10% per annum paid in kind in the form of common stock at $4.00 per share, subject to adjustment. Accrued interest was converted into shares of common stock upon conversion of the 2020 Debentures. The 2020 Debentures were senior secured obligations of ours secured by all of our assets, including our intellectual property, pursuant to the terms of a security agreement dated as of February 26, 2020.

In connection with the issuance of the 2020 Debentures, we also issued the 2020 Warrants for an aggregate of 498,000 shares of common stock. Each 2020 Warrant has a three-year term and is immediately exercisable at an exercise price of $7.50 per share, subject to adjustment. Each 2020 Warrant also contains an adjustment provision in the event the Company issues any common stock or securities convertible into, exercisable for, or otherwise entitles anyone to acquire common stock at an effective price per share that is lower than the exercise price of the 2020 Warrant, subject to certain exceptions, then at the holder’s option, the exercise price will be adjusted down to such lower price and the number of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the 2020 Warrants will be increased such that the aggregate exercise price payable under the 2020 Warrant for the adjusted number of shares will be the same as the aggregate exercise price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment.

On June 15, 2020, we entered into agreements with twenty-three of the twenty-five holders of the 2020 Debentures. Pursuant to the agreements, the 2020 Debentures automatically converted upon closing of our Uplist Transaction on June 22, 2020 into an aggregate of 637,513 Uplist Shares and 573,479 Uplist Warrants underlying the units sold in the Uplist Transaction. Each Uplist Warrant has a five-year term and is immediately exercisable at an exercise price of $4.60 per share, subject to adjustment. Additionally, certain 2020 Warrants were cancelled pursuant to the agreements and in lieu thereof we issued to the holders of the cancelled 2020 Warrants an aggregate of 179,200 Shares. Of this amount, 79,953 Uplist Shares, 79,953 Uplist Warrants, and 25,000 Shares were issued to four of our directors and are not being registered for resale. Two holders representing $200,000 in the aggregate of the 2020 Debentures did not sign the agreements. Upon closing of the Uplist Transaction, the two holders’ 2020 Debentures were also automatically converted into an aggregate of 64,034 Uplist Shares pursuant to a securities purchase agreement we entered into with the 2020 Debenture holders as of February 26, 2020. The two holders’ 2020 Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 81,700 shares of common stock at $4.59 per share remain outstanding. Of this amount, 2020 Warrants to purchase 40,850 shares of common stock and 32,017 Uplist Shares were issued to one of the holders and are not being registered for resale.

In connection with the agreements, each of the twenty-three holders of the 2020 Debentures entered into lock-up agreements pursuant to which they have agreed not to offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of any Shares received upon cancellation of the 2020 Warrants, any Uplist Shares and Uplist Warrants acquired upon the automatic conversion of the 2020 Debentures, and any shares of common stock underlying such Uplist Warrants for a period concluding on the earlier to occur of (i) October 20, 2020 or (ii) any time after 60 days after the closing of the Uplist Transaction in the event the shares of our common stock trade above two times the public offering price of the Uplist Shares for five consecutive trading days.

We agreed to register the Registered Securities for resale under the Securities Act.

Summary of the Offering

RISK FACTORS

Investing in our securities involves risks. Before you decide whether to purchase any of our securities, you should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties discussed below and set forth in Part I, Item 1A under the heading “Risk Factors” included in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, in Part II, Item 1A under the heading “Risk Factors” included in any Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and any Current Reports on Form 8-K filed after the end of the fiscal year covered by such Annual Report on Form 10-K, each of which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus and any prospectus supplement. Additional risk factors that you should carefully consider also may be included in other documents filed with the SEC that are incorporated by reference herein or therein. For more information, see the section entitled “Where You Can Find More Information” in the prospectus.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock and This Offering

The resale of shares of common stock and Uplist Warrants by the selling stockholders could adversely affect the prevailing market price of our common stock and may cause substantial dilution to our existing stockholders. We are registering for resale by the selling stockholders (i) up to an aggregate of 1,259,966 shares of common stock; and (ii) up to an aggregate of 493,526 Uplist Warrants. The number of shares of common stock or Uplist Warrants ultimately offered for sale by the selling stockholders under this prospectus is dependent upon the number of shares of common stock or Uplist Warrants the selling stockholders elects to sell from time to time. Depending upon market liquidity at the time, sales of shares of our common stock, including those issued upon the exercise the 2020 Warrants and Uplist Warrants, may cause the trading price of our common stock to decline.

The selling stockholders may sell all, some or none of the shares that they hold or come to hold upon the exercise of the 2020 Warrants and Uplist Warrants. Sales by the selling stockholders of the shares acquired upon the such exercise and sold under the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, may result in dilution to the interests of other holders of our common stock. The sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock or the Uplist Warrants by the selling stockholders in this offering, or anticipation of such sales, could make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and at a price that we might otherwise wish to effect sales.

Holders of the Uplist Warrants will have no rights as a common stockholder until they acquire our common stock.  The Uplist Warrants offered for resale do not confer any rights of common stock ownership on their holders, such as voting rights or the right to receive dividends, but rather merely represent the right to acquire shares of our common stock at a fixed price for a limited period of time. Specifically, holders of the Uplist Warrants may exercise their right to acquire the common stock and pay an exercise price of $4.60 per share prior to five years from the date of issuance, after which date any unexercised Uplist Warrants will expire and have no further value. Upon exercise of the Uplist Warrants, the holder will be entitled to exercise the rights of a common stockholder as to the security exercised only as to matters for which the record date occurs after the exercise

USE OF PROCEEDS

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Registered Securities by the selling stockholders, except for proceeds from the exercise of the Uplist Warrants and 2020 Warrants. We intend to use the proceeds from the exercise of the Uplist Warrants and 2020 Warrants for general corporate purposes. As of the date of this prospectus, we cannot predict with certainty the amount that we will actually spend on the use set forth above. We will bear all other costs, fees and expenses incurred by us, or by the selling stockholders, in effecting the registration of the Registered Securities. The selling stockholders, however, will pay any other expenses incurred in selling their Registered Securities, including any brokerage commissions or costs of sale.

To the extent permitted by applicable securities laws, the selling stockholders may also sell the Registered Securities short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the Registered Securities to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of the Registered Securities offered by this prospectus, which Registered Securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

The selling stockholders and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents that participate in the sale of the Registered Securities or interests therein may be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act. Any discounts, commissions, concessions or profit they earn on any resale of the Registered Securities covered by this prospectus may be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Selling stockholders who are “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.

To the extent required, the Registered Securities to be sold, the names of the selling stockholders, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agents, dealer or underwriter, any applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.

In order to comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the Registered Securities may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the Registered Securities may not be sold unless it has been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.

We have advised the selling stockholders that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of the Registered Securities in the market and to the activities of the selling stockholders and their affiliates. In addition, to the extent applicable we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the selling stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling stockholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the Registered Securities against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.
