NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2016

(UNAUDITED)

 

Note 1 - Organization and Nature of Business

 

Gopher Protocol Inc. (the “Company”, “we”, “us”, “our”, “Gopher” or "GOPH”) was incorporated on July 22, 2009, under the laws of the State of Nevada and is headquartered in Perris, California. On September 9, 2009, the Company filed a Form S-1 Registration Statement to provide for the registration of securities under the Securities Act of 1933. In the past, it had been principally engaged in offering consulting for foreign currency market trading to non-US resident clients, professionals and retail clients. The Company’s revenue in 2015 was related to consulting services provided to one company in the foreign exchange business. From 2016 and going forward, the Company is developing a real-time, heuristic based, mobile technology. The technology being developed by the Company under license consists of a smart microchip, mobile application software and supporting software that run on a server. The system contemplates the creation of a global network. Upon development, the Company expects that its microchip technologies may be installed within mobile devices or on SIM cards.

 

Products:

 

(i)The Company has applied the mobile technology into an electronic circuit including a proprietary microchip that is within a sticky patch package (the "Patch"). The Patch can be affixed to any object, mobile or static, which will enable the object to which it is affixed to be tracked remotely. It is our goal to have the electronic circuit communicate with other similar working patches via a separate, secured and private network. Upon affixing the Patch on an object, the circuit is turned on, after which the electronic circuit regularly transmits an identification signal in order to identify the device's geographical location. The Patch works in conjunction with a software application to provide tracking function operations. The system includes its own power source. The Patch will also perform an emergency feature. In the event of an emergency situation, one would simply peel the Patch off. Upon removing the Patch, it operates in a constant transmission mode, sending emergency signals. The patch also alerts the user's friends and family about the user's location. No GPS or conventional network is needed. On April 4, 2016, the Company issued a press release announcing that, in connection with its GopherInsight™ licensed technology, the Company and its technology licensing partner, Guardian Patch LLC, have completed the Statement of Work (SOW) for the FCC survey to deploy their Guardian Global Tracking Device within the continental U.S., and that they have also completed their transmitters/transceivers modules feasibility research.

 

(ii)While developing the core technology of the Company, and relaying on prior knowledge, the Company and its technology licensing partner, Guardian Patch LLC, developed Gopher Epsilon Software, which is an internal, proprietary platform that has been developed as a designated tool for the mobile industry to accelerate signoff Reliability Verification (RV) with Accurate and Precise Interactive Error Detection and Correction. The software is targeted to assist microchip designers to produce power-aware, faster performance and longer life span integrated circuits. Ultimately, the software significantly prolongs a battery's life, enabling mobile and static electronic devices longer operation time and better performance.

 

The Company and its technology licensing partner, Guardian Patch LLC, are preparing to introduce both new products to the market. The products will be presented for time-based license agreements utilizing a designated website on top of customary distributing channels for the product.

On March 4, 2015, the Company entered into a Territorial License Agreement (the “License Agreement”) with Hermes Roll LLC (“Hermes”). Pursuant to the License Agreement, Hermes licensed to the Company, on an exclusive basis in the State of California, certain intellectual property relating to Hermes’s system and method for scheduling categorized deliverables, according to demand, at the customer’s location based on smartphone application and/or via the internet, in consideration of 100,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock of the Company (the “Preferred Shares”). The Preferred Shares have no liquidation rights. The Holder of the Preferred Shares will be entitled to vote on all matters submitted to shareholders of the Company on an as-converted basis. The Preferred Shares have a conversion price of $0.01 (the “Conversion Price”) and a stated value of $10.00 per share (the “Stated Value”). Each Preferred Share is convertible, at the option of the Holder, into such number of shares of common stock of the Company as determined by dividing the Stated Value by the Conversion Price. On June 16, 2015, the Company and Hermes entered into that certain Amended and Restated Territorial License Agreement, amending and restating the Territorial License Agreement to grant the Company an exclusive worldwide license to the Technology. In addition, subject to the Company providing Hermes with $5,000,000 in working capital, for a period of one year, the Company will have the option to acquire a 100% of the membership interest of Hermes in consideration of 20,000,000 shares of common stock of the Company. Further, in the event the Company provides less than $5,000,000 to Hermes the Company will have the option to acquire a pro-rata portion of the membership interests of Hermes in consideration of a pro-rata amount of shares of common stock of the Company. On June 30, 2015, the Company appointed Dr. Rittman as Chief Technical Officer and a board member.  On August 20, 2015, the Company entered into an agreement with Dr. Rittman pursuant to which the parties agreed that (i) all inventions, improvements and developments made or conceived by Dr. Rittman, either solely or in collaboration with others pertaining to Company's business, will be the property of Company, and (ii) Dr. Rittman will assign to the Company any and all intellectual property related to the Company's consumer heuristic technology platform. Dr. Rittman is the Chief Technology Officer and a director of the Company as well as the Chairman of the Company's Advisory Board, which is currently being formed.

 

On June 30, 2015, the Company appointed Danny Rittman as Chief Technical Officer and a board member. Dr. Rittman is the owner of 9,900 shares of Series D Preferred Stock of the Company that is convertible at Dr. Rittman’s election into 9,900,000 shares of common stock.

 

On or around March 18, 2016 the Company and Dr. Danny Rittman entered into agreement intended to clarify the relationship between Dr. Rittman and the Company and the ownership of certain technology in connection with certain agreements previously entered into between Company and Dr. Rittman and with third parties. The Company is the exclusive license holder for certain intellectual property relating to Hermes’ system and method for scheduling categorized deliverables, according to demand, at the customer’s location based on smartphone application and/or via the internet. As a result of these agreements, the Company shall remain a licensee per the terms of the original License Agreement and will develop the first product with Dr. Rittman and his partners. The Company and Dr. Rittman's partners have commenced development of the product via a private LLC that has been incorporated under the name "Guardian Patch LLC" (“LLC”). Certain private investors will provide all initial funding via the LLC for product development, including engaging third party investors. The LLC will fund the development, and the Company will provide IT services via Dr. Rittman for a monthly fee of $30,000. The March 2016 fee was billed and paid. Dr. Rittman has signed an amendment employment agreement with the Company.

 

Development has commenced, and the Company has completed the Statement of Work (SOW) for the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) survey to deploy the Company's Guardian Global Tracking Device within the continental U.S., and the Company has also completed their transmitters/transceivers modules feasibility research. Due to the fact that the Guardian tracking system uses in part a synthetic radio frequency transmission for data, it is required to comply with various FCC regulations relevant to the system, which the Company is complying with.  The FCC regulates the limits of potentially harmful interference to licensed transmitters due to low power unlicensed transmitters. The Guardian Patch system consists of advanced security protocols in order to maintain the global, private, fully-secured network. In addition, the Guardian Patch device needs to perform communication tasks across the globe providing breakthrough tracking features.  Utilizing their robust intellectual property portfolio and experienced personnel, the Company and its technology licensing partner, Guardian Patch LLC (collectively, "GPLLC"), successfully completed thorough research which involved security, performance and FCC regulations compliance. Based on this research a set of particular frequencies were chosen to be used by the GPLLC. 

 

On April 13, 2016, the Company was approved to be upgraded to the QTCQB marketplace, after having submitted required documentation and having met the exchange’s requirements.

 

On April 25, 2015, the Company filed an amendment to its Articles of Incorporation increasing the authorized shares of common stock from 2,000,000 shares to 500,000,000 shares.

On April 22, 2015, Michael Murray was appointed by the Company as the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company. On April 23, 2015, Igwekali Reginald Emmanuel resigned as an executive officer and director of the Company to pursue other interests and Michael Murray was appointed as CEO, CFO, Secretary and Treasurer of the Company. Mr. Murray is an officer and shareholder of Hermes Roll LLC (“Hermes”). Mr. Murray is the owner of 9,900 shares of Series D Preferred Stock of the Company that is convertible at Mr. Murray’s election into 9,900,000 shares of common stock.  

 

In September of 2014, the Company filed an amended Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Nevada to increase the authorized shares to 2,000,000,000 shares. In October of 2014, the Company implemented a 5,000-1 reverse split, with no fractional shares allowed. Effective February 17, 2015, the Company filed with the State of Nevada a Certificate of Change to effect a reverse stock split of its outstanding and authorized shares of common stock at a ratio of 1 for 1,000 (the “Reverse Stock Split”). The effective date of the Reverse Stock Split was February 24, 2015. On or about February 24, 2015, the Company implemented a 1,000-1 reverse split, with no fractional shares allowed. In addition, the Company filed Articles of Merger (the “Articles”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada to effectuate a name change. The Articles were filed to effectuate a merger between Gopher Protocol Inc., a Nevada corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and the Company, with the Company being the surviving entity. As a result, the Company’s name changed from “Forex International Trading Corp.” to “Gopher Protocol Inc.”. In connection with the above, the Company filed an Issuer Company-Related Action Notification Form with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. The Reverse Stock Split was implemented by FINRA on February 23, 2015.

 

Our new CUSIP number is 38268V 108. As a result of the name change, our symbol been changed following the Notification Period to GOPH.

 

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Presentation and Basis of Financial Statements

 

The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates in the accompanying financial statements include depreciable lives of property and equipment, valuation of beneficial conversion feature debt discounts, valuation of derivatives, and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.  

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost and the related depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred. Renewals and betterments are capitalized. Upon the sale or retirement of an asset, the related costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is recognized in the results of operations.

 

As required by U.S. GAAP for long-lived assets, the Company evaluates the fair value of its property and equipment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Any impairment of value is recognized when the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. There were no impairment losses for the period ended March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015.

Fair value measurements

 

Financial instruments and certain non-financial assets and liabilities are measured at their fair value as determined based on the assets highest and best use. GAAP has established a framework for measuring fair value that is based on a hierarchy that requires that the valuation technique used be based on the most objective inputs available for measuring a particular asset or liability. There are three broad levels in the fair value hierarchy that describe the degree of objectivity of the inputs used to determine fair value. The fair value hierarchy is set forth below:

 

Level 1 — inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

 

Level 2 — inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

 

Level 3 — inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. They are based on best information available in the absence of level 1 and 2 inputs.

 

The carrying value of financial instruments, which include cash, notes receivable, notes payable, and accrued expenses, approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.

 

Treasury Stock

 

Treasury stock is recorded at cost. The re-issuance of treasury shares is accounted for on a first in, first-out basis and any difference between the cost of treasury shares and the re-issuance proceeds are charged or credited to additional paid-in capital. During 2011, the Company bought back 8 post-split shares (38,000 pre-split) shares of its own shares.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB Codification Topic 740-10-25 (“ASC 740-10-25”) Income Taxes. Under ASC 740-10-25, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740-10-25, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount of tax benefits expected to be realized.

 

U.S. GAAP requires that, in applying the liability method, the financial statement effects of an uncertain tax position be recognized based on the outcome that is more likely than not to occur. Under this criterion the most likely resolution of an uncertain tax position should be analyzed based on technical merits and on the outcome that would likely be sustained under examination. The Company had no uncertain tax positions as of March 31, 2016. The Company’s 2014 tax returns been filed.

 

The Company’s federal income tax returns are no longer subject to examination by the IRS for the years prior to 2010, and the related state income tax returns are no longer subject to examination by state authorities for the years prior to 2010.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognized revenue on arrangements in accordance with FASB Codification Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition” (“ASC Topic 605”). Under ASC Topic 605, revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed and determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is performed and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. We had revenue of $30,000 and $22,500 for the quarters ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2016, 100% of the Company’s revenue was related to IT service provided to the LLC for Dr. Rittman services, in connection with the development of the Patch.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

Fair value accounting requires bifurcation of embedded derivative instruments such as conversion features in convertible debt or equity instruments, and measurement of their fair value for accounting purposes. In determining the appropriate fair value, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. In assessing the convertible debt instruments, management determines if the convertible debt host instrument is conventional convertible debt and further if there is a beneficial conversion feature requiring measurement. If the instrument is not considered conventional convertible debt, the Company will continue its evaluation process of these instruments as derivative financial instruments.

 

Once determined, derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect fair value at each reporting period end, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in results of operations as an adjustment to fair value of derivatives. In addition, the fair value of freestanding derivative instruments such as warrants, are also valued using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. 

 

(Loss) Per Share

 

In accordance with accounting guidance now codified as FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share,” Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding the effects of any potentially dilutive securities. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential of shares of common stock outstanding during the period including stock options or warrants, using the treasury stock method (by using the average stock price for the period to determine the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants), and convertible debt or convertible preferred stock, using the if-converted method. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential of shares of common stock if their effect is anti-dilutive. Because of the Company’s net losses, the effects of stock options, convertible notes, and convertible preferred stock would be anti-dilutive and accordingly, is excluded from the computation of earnings per share.

 

Note 3 - Liquidity and Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company sustained net losses of $102,113 in the current quarter, and provided cash from operating activities of $9,634 for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2016. The Company had a working capital deficit of $168,786, stockholders’ deficit of $214,281, and accumulated deficit of $2,610,259, at March 31, 2016. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The Company is dependent upon its ability to generate revenues and its ability to continue receiving investment capital and loans from third parties to sustain its current level of operations. The Company is in the process of securing working capital from investors for common stock, convertible notes payable, and/or strategic partnerships. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in these efforts.

 

The financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue to function as a going concern, and do not include adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Based on the Company’s operating plan, existing working capital at March 31, 2016 was insufficient to meet cash requirements to support Company operations through December 31, 2016.

Pursuant to the License Agreement, Hermes licensed to the Company, on an exclusive basis in the State of California, certain intellectual property relating to Hermes’s system and method for scheduling categorized deliverables, according to demand, at the customer’s location based on smartphone application and/or via the internet. On or around March 18, 2016 the Company and Dr. Danny Rittman entered into agreement intended to clarify the relationship between Dr. Rittman and the Company and the ownership of certain technology in connection with certain agreements previously entered into between Company and Dr. Rittman and with third parties. The Company is the exclusive license holder for certain intellectual property relating to Hermes’ system and method for scheduling categorized deliverables, according to demand, at the customer’s location based on smartphone application and/or via the internet. As a result of these agreements, the Company shall remain a licensee per the terms of the original License Agreement and will develop the first product with Dr. Rittman and his partners. The Company and Dr. Rittman's partners have commenced development of the product via a private LLC that has been incorporated under the name "Guardian Patch LLC" (“LLC”). Certain private investors will provide all initial funding via the LLC for product development, including engaging third party investors. The LLC will fund the development, and the Company will provide IT services via Dr. Rittman for a monthly fee of $30,000. The March 2016 fee was billed and paid. Dr. Rittman has signed an amendment employment agreement with the Company.

 

Development has commenced, and the Company has completed the Statement of Work (SOW) for the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) survey to deploy their Guardian Global Tracking Device within the continental U.S., and the Company has also completed their transmitters/transceivers modules feasibility research. Due to the fact that the Guardian tracking system uses in part a synthetic radio frequency transmission for data, it is required to comply with various FCC regulations relevant to the system, which the Company is complying with.  The FCC regulates the limits of potentially harmful interference to licensed transmitters due to low power unlicensed transmitters. The Guardian Patch system consists of advanced security protocols in order to maintain the global, private, fully-secured network. In addition, the Guardian Patch device needs to perform communication tasks across the globe providing breakthrough tracking features. Utilizing their robust intellectual property portfolio and experienced personnel, the Company and its partner, Guardian Patch LLC (collectively, "GPLLC"), successfully completed thorough research which involved security, performance and FCC regulations compliance. Based on this research a set of particular frequencies were chosen to be used by the GPLLC.

In the event the Contingency was not met, the Letter Agreement would be cancelled and rendered null and void. The Company acknowledged that the Company did not meet the Contingency, technically resulting in the cancellation of the Letter Agreement and rendering the Letter Agreement null and void. Moreover, the Company failed to meet its obligations under the Amended and Restated Territorial License Agreement, including the further development of the consumer heuristic technology platform, thereby creating a vacuum in its development in all aspects, including the ability to obtain funding, resulting in the need for Dr. Rittman’s partners to perform the necessary development work related to the above agreements.

 

The original License Agreement will remain in place, while other agreements will be terminated and rendered null and void. Dr. Rittman will resign as an officer of the Company, but will remain as Director and technical consultant of the Company, and will accommodate the needs of the Company in return for compensation to be agreed by the parties. All intellectual property will remain in the possession of Dr. Rittman and his private partners, and the Company shall remain a licensee per the terms of the original Territorial License Agreement, and will develop the first product with Dr. Rittman and his partners.

 

On March 4, 2015, the Company entered into a Territorial License Agreement (the “License Agreement”) with Hermes Roll LLC (“Hermes”). Pursuant to the License Agreement, Hermes licensed to the Company, on an exclusive basis in the State of California, certain intellectual property relating to Hermes’s system and method for scheduling categorized deliverables, according to demand, at the customer’s location based on smartphone application and/or via the internet. On or around March 18, 2016 the Company and Dr. Danny Rittman entered into agreement intended to clarify the relationship between Dr. Rittman and the Company and the ownership of certain technology in connection with certain agreements previously entered into between Company and Dr. Rittman and with third parties. The Company is the exclusive license holder for certain intellectual property relating to Hermes’ system and method for scheduling categorized deliverables, according to demand, at the customer’s location based on smartphone application and/or via the internet. As a result of these agreements, the Company shall remain a licensee per the terms of the original License Agreement and will develop the first product with Dr. Rittman and his partners. The Company and Dr. Rittman's partners have commenced development of the product via a private LLC that has been incorporated under the name "Guardian Patch LLC" (“LLC”). Certain private investors will provide all initial funding via the LLC for product development, including engaging third party investors. The LLC will fund the development, and the Company will provide IT services via Dr. Rittman for a monthly fee of $30,000. The March 2016 fee was billed and paid. Dr. Rittman has signed an amendment employment agreement with the Company.

Development has commenced, and the Company has completed the Statement of Work (SOW) for the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) survey to deploy their Guardian Global Tracking Device within the continental U.S., and the Company has also completed their transmitters/transceivers modules feasibility research. Due to the fact that the Guardian tracking system uses in part a synthetic radio frequency transmission for data, it is required to comply with various FCC regulations relevant to the system, which the Company is complying with.  The FCC regulates the limits of potentially harmful interference to licensed transmitters due to low power unlicensed transmitters. The Guardian Patch system consists of advanced security protocols in order to maintain the global, private, fully-secured network. In addition, the Guardian Patch device needs to perform communication tasks across the globe providing breakthrough tracking features. Utilizing their robust intellectual property portfolio and experienced personnel, the Company and its partner, Guardian Patch LLC (collectively, "GPLLC"), successfully completed thorough research which involved security, performance and FCC regulations compliance. Based on this research a set of particular frequencies were chosen to be used by the GPLLC. 

 

Note 9 - Contingencies

 

Legal Proceedings

 

From time to time, the Company may be involved in various litigation matters, which arise in the ordinary course of business.  There is currently no litigation that management believes will have a material impact on the financial position of the Company.

 

In connection with the registration of GopherInside as a trademark, Intel Corporation has requested that the Company abandons the trademark in lieu of potential confusion with their trademark Intel Inside. The Company has taken the initial steps necessary to alleviate any concern Intel may have associated with mobile or computer platforms. Furthermore, the Company holds the opinion that GopherInside is by merit different from “Intel + Inside” as two separate words. Additionally, a simple online search yields 1,189 live non-Intel marks that include the word “INSIDE.”  The Company learned that Intel filed on February 2, 2016 said Notice of Opposition to the trademark application. The Company decided not to object and agreed to abandon this trademark.

Note 10 - Per Share Information

 

Loss per share

 

Basic loss per share of common stock is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding.  Diluted loss per share of common stock (“Diluted EPS”) is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock and dilutive common stock equivalents and convertible securities then outstanding.  At March 31, 2016 and 2015, there were 104,065,957 and 100,005,005 of potentially dilutive post-split common stock equivalents outstanding, respectively. The potentially dilutive common stock equivalents at March 31, 2016 arise from (i) the issuance on December 7, 2011 of 45,000 Series B Preferred Shares which are convertible into 3,000 common shares, (ii) the issuance of 10,000 Series C Preferred Shares having a stated value of $100 per share, of which 700 shares remain unconverted, which remaining unconverted shares are convertible into 770 post-split common shares, given recent market prices, and notwithstanding a restriction against owning more than 4.99% of the Company’s stock, and (iii) the issuance of a note payable to GV Global which based on hypothetical conversion at March 31, 2016 would have converted into 9,312,187 post-split common shares, which balance reflects the adjusted balance from the conversion of 226,110 shares on or around March 8, 2016, and (iv) the issuance of 100,000 Series D Preferred Shares worth $120,000 to Vulcan, 5,250 of which have already been converted during this fiscal quarter, the remainder (unconverted balance) of which given hypothetical conversion at March 31, 2016 would have converted to 94,750,000 post-split shares. The potentially dilutive common stock equivalents at March 31, 2015 arise from (i) the issuance on December 7, 2011 of 45,000 Series B Preferred Shares which are convertible into 3,000 common post-split shares, (ii) the issuance of 10,000 Series C Preferred Shares having a stated value of $100 per share, of which 700 shares remain unconverted, which remaining unconverted shares are convertible into 1 post-split common shares, given recent market prices, and notwithstanding a restriction against owning more than 4.99% of the Company’s stock, (iii) the issuance of a note to a third party Financier, which based on a theoretical conversion at March 31, 2015 would have converted into post-split 4 shares of common stock, and (iv) the issuance of a note payable to GV Global which based on hypothetical conversion at March 31, 2015 would have converted into 2,000 post-split common shares, and (v) the issuance of 100,000 Series D Preferred Shares worth $120,000 to Vulcan, which given hypothetical conversion at March 31, 2015 would have converted to 100,000,000 post-split shares. The computation of Diluted EPS does not assume exercise or conversion of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect on the net loss per common share. Share amounts are shown in post-split amounts to facilitate comparison between the periods.  

 

Note 14 – Concentrations

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk, consist principally of temporary cash investments.

 

There have been no losses in these accounts through March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

 

Concentration of revenue and accounts receivable as of March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015, the Company has one customer, which counts 100% of revenue and accounts receivable.

General Overview

 

The Company is in the process of developing a real-time, heuristic based, mobile technology. Upon development, the technology will consist of a smart microchip, mobile application software and supporting software that run on a server. The system contemplates the creation of a global network, worldwide. Gopher believes this will be the first system that is developed using a human, heuristic based analysis engine. Since the core of the system will be its advanced microchip that will be able to be installed any mobile device, worldwide, Gopher expects that this will result in an internal, private network between all mobile devices utilizing the device by providing mobile technology for computing power enhancement, advanced mobile database management/sharing, and additional mobile features.

 

Products:

 

The Company applied this mobile technology into an electronic circuit including a proprietary microchip that is within a sticky patch package (the "Patch"). The Patch can be affixed to any object, mobile or static, which will enable the object to which it is affixed to be tracked remotely. It is our goal to allow the electronic circuit to communicate with other similar working patches via a separate, secured and private network. Upon affixing the Patch on an object, the circuit is turned on, after which the electronic circuit regularly transmits an identification signal in order to identify the device's geographical location. The Patch works in conjunction with a software application to provide tracking function operations. The system includes its own power source. The Patch will also perform an emergency feature. In the event of an emergency situation, one would simply peel the Patch off. Upon removing the Patch, it operates in a constant transmission mode, sending emergency signals. The Patch also alerts the user's friends and family about the user's location. No GPS or conventional network is needed.

 

While developing the core technology of the Company, and relaying on prior knowledge, the Company developed Gopher Epsilon Software, which is an internal, proprietary platform that has been developed as a designated tool for the mobile industry to accelerate signoff Reliability Verification (RV) with Accurate and Precise Interactive Error Detection and Correction. The software is targeted to assist microchip designers to produce power-aware, faster performance and longer life span integrated circuits. Ultimately, the software significantly prolongs a battery's life, enabling mobile and static electronic devices longer operation time and better performance.

 

The Company and technology licensing partner, Guardian Patch LLC, are preparing to introduce both new products to the market. The products will be presented for time-based license agreements utilizing a designated website on top of customary distributing channels for the product.

Results of Operations:

 

Fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015

 

A comparison of the statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 is as follows:

 

Revenues:

 

The following table summarizes our revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015:

 

Fiscal quarters ended March 31,  2016   2015 
Total revenues  $30,000   $22,500 

 

During the first quarter of 2016, Guardian Patch LLC, which funds the development of the Patch, was billed by the Company for IT services provided by Dr. Rittman for a monthly fee of $30,000. The March 2016 fee was billed and paid. In the quarter ended on March 31, 2015, the Company was able to leverage its consulting expertise in the area of foreign exchange. Revenue increased 25% in 2016, compared to the prior period. Revenue derived from one customer in both cases, but the periods are not comparable due to the differing nature of the services provided in each case.

 

Operating expenses:

 

The following table summarizes our operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015:

 

Fiscal quarters ended March 31,  2016   2015 
Total operating expenses  $122,312   $26,450 

 

The Company disposed of certain debts between the periods, resulting in lower G&A costs for legal and professional services. Legal expenses came down significantly in the current period. As the Company ramps up its technology business, however, certain costs have increased. The Company has invested in certain IT-related costs, has developed a scope of work to manufacture a prototype, and has also filed for several patents. Patent filing expenses and costs for software and application development comprised nearly $50,000 of the increase from the prior period. Audit-related costs were also higher in the current period, as the Company retained a new auditor beginning in the first quarter of 2016.

 

Other income (expenses):

 

The following table summarizes our other income (expenses) for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015:

 

Fiscal quarters ended March 31,  2016   2015 
Interest income  $0   $583 
Interest (expense)   (9,981)   (8,414)
Total other income/expense   (9,981)   (7,831)

 

In 2015, the Company converted a number of notes for equity, and is carrying less debt than in 2014, resulting in less interest income and interest expense. In 2016, the Company had an amortizable debt discount which it wasn’t carrying on its books in the comparable period in 2015.

On March 4, 2015, the Company entered into a Territorial License Agreement (the “License Agreement”) with Hermes Roll LLC (“Hermes”). Pursuant to the License Agreement, Hermes licensed to the Company, on an exclusive basis in the State of California, certain intellectual property relating to Hermes’s system and method for scheduling categorized deliverables, according to demand, at the customer’s location based on smartphone application and/or via the internet. On or around March 18, 2016 the Company and Dr. Danny Rittman entered into agreement intended to clarify the relationship between Dr. Rittman and the Company and the ownership of certain technology in connection with certain agreements previously entered into between Company and Dr. Rittman and with third parties. The Company is the exclusive license holder for certain intellectual property relating to Hermes’ system and method for scheduling categorized deliverables, according to demand, at the customer’s location based on smartphone application and/or via the internet. As a result of these agreements, the Company shall remain a licensee per the terms of the original License Agreement and will develop the first product with Dr. Rittman and his partners. The Company and Dr. Rittman's partners have commenced development of the product via a private LLC that has been incorporated under the name "Guardian Patch LLC" (“LLC”). Certain private investors will provide all initial funding via the LLC for product development, including engaging third party investors. The LLC will fund the development, and the Company will provide IT services via Dr. Rittman for a monthly fee of $30,000. The March 2016 fee was billed and paid. Dr. Rittman has signed an amendment employment agreement with the Company.

 

Development has commenced, and the Company has completed the Statement of Work (SOW) for the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) survey to deploy their Guardian Global Tracking Device within the continental U.S., and the Company has also completed their transmitters/transceivers modules feasibility research. Due to the fact that the Guardian tracking system uses in part a synthetic radio frequency transmission for data, it is required to comply with various FCC regulations relevant to the system, which the Company is complying with.  The FCC regulates the limits of potentially harmful interference to licensed transmitters due to low power unlicensed transmitters. The Guardian Patch system consists of advanced security protocols in order to maintain the global, private, fully-secured network. In addition, the Guardian Patch device needs to perform communication tasks across the globe providing breakthrough tracking features. Utilizing their robust intellectual property portfolio and experienced personnel, the Company and its partner, Guardian Patch LLC (collectively, "GPLLC"), successfully completed thorough research which involved security, performance and FCC regulations compliance. Based on this research a set of particular frequencies were chosen to be used by the GPLLC. 

 

The LLC has engaged two consultants to assist with (i) the introduction to strategic partners and to advise on other matters, including, technology, product development, marketing, sales, engineering, support, distribution, IP, staffing, scheduling and organizational and administrative matters; and (ii) assist with public relations and marketing services, specifically with regards to the marketing of the Guardian Patch, the development and maintenance of editorial and special interest mailing lists, providing editorial discussions and meetings, performing ongoing searches for publicity and editorial lobbying, providing up to two news releases and assisting with the broad public dissemination of press releases, providing follow up; and the maintenance of a digital clipping diary and other additional services as provided for in the consulting agreement. The Company will provide various services to The LLC in consideration of a monthly fee.

 

The LLC will fund the development, and the Company will provide IT services via Dr. Rittman for a monthly fee of $30,000. The March 2016 fee was billed and paid. Dr. Rittman was appointed by the Company as Co-Chairman of the Company. Mr. Rittman was serving as a director of the company at the time of his appointment as Co-Chairman. Additionally, on April 19, 2016, in consideration of past accomplishments achieved by Dr. Rittman on behalf of the Company and for future anticipated achievements, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Employment Agreement with Dr. Rittman pursuant to which Mr. Rittman will continue to act as the Company's CTO for a term of one (1) year as extended in consideration of (i) a base salary of $12,000 per month from January 1, 2016 through January 1, 2017. Dr. Rittman signed an amended employment agreement with the Company.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our cash and cash equivalents were $30,685 and $21,051 for the periods ended March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015. Cash flows from operations in the first three months of 2016 was $9,636, compared to cash flows from operations of $0 in the first three months of 2015. Sources of working capital improved significantly in the first quarter of 2016, mainly through the growth in accounts payable. Uses of working capital – namely, accounts receivable and other non-current assets – decreased significantly, even when netted against an increase in prepaid expenses of $10,500.

 

 23 

 

 

Our financial statements have been prepared on the basis that it is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of additional income and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company sustained net losses of $102,113 in the current quarter, and provided cash from operating activities of $9,634 for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2016. The Company had a working capital deficit of $168,786, stockholders’ deficit of $214,281, and accumulated deficit of $2,610,259, at March 31, 2016. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.

 

We plan to raise working capital that will allow us to conduct our business for the next twelve months. There is no guarantee regarding our ability to raise that capital. We expect to use the proceeds to fund our short-term capital requirements including paying administrative expenses associated with maintaining our public company’s filings for the next 12 months. In order to implement our business plan and pay various administrative expenses on a minimal basis for the next 12 months, we expect that we will need approximately $200,000. The Company expects that its operating results will fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter in the future and will depend on a number of factors including the state of the worldwide economy and financial markets, which are outside the Company’s control.

 

Debt Financing Arrangements

 

As of March 31, 2016, the Company has only one convertible note outstanding. The current note balance at March 31, 2016 is $47,204, which includes $7,629 of accrued interest. At March 31, 2016, the Company had only this note outstanding as well. The balance at that time was $38,924, which included accrued interest of $6,851.

 

On January 22, 2015, the Company entered into an Exchange Agreement with a third party (“GVG”) pursuant to which GVG exchanged $75,273 in debt into a 10% Convertible Debenture in the principal amount of $75,273 (the “GV Note”). The GV Note matures January 21, 2017 (the “Maturity Date”) and interest associated with the GV Note is 10% per annum, which is payable on the Maturity Date. The GV Note is convertible into shares of common stock of the Company, at the option of GVG, at a conversion price of $0.00752734. GVG has agreed to restrict its ability to convert the GV Note and receive shares of common stock such that the number of shares of common stock held by it in the aggregate and its affiliates after such conversion or exercise does not exceed 4.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock. The GV Note was issued to GVG in reliance upon exemptions from registration pursuant to Section 3(a)(9) under the Securities Act of 1933. GV Global is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933. In addition, on March 2, 2015, the Company and GVG amended that certain 10% Convertible Debenture (the “GV Debenture”) which debt underlying the GV Debenture was initially incurred on October 6, 2009 and exchanged for the GV Debenture on January 19, 2014. The parties agreed that the conversion price in the GV Debenture would not be impacted by the 1:1,000 stock split implemented by the Company on February 24, 2015 and will remain $0.0075273. Beneficial Conversion Feature (“BCF”) in the amount of $75,273 has not yet been fully amortized from the note balance. As of March 31, 2016, $39,905 remains to be amortized. 

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates

 

Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations is based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of our financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, the reported amounts and classification of revenues and expenses during the periods presented, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis and material changes in these estimates or assumptions could occur in the future. Changes in estimates are recorded on the period in which they become known. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances and at that time, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates if past experience or other assumptions do not turn out to be substantially accurate.

We believe that the accounting policies described below are critical to understanding our business, results of operations, and financial condition because they involve significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements. An accounting is deemed to be critical if it requires a judgment or accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain, and if different estimates that could have been used, or if changes in the accounting estimates that are reasonably likely to occur periodically, could materially impact our financial statements. Other significant accounting policies, primarily those with lower levels of uncertainty than those discussed below, are also critical to understanding our financial statements. The notes to our financial statements contain additional information related to our accounting policies and should be read in conjunction with this discussion.

 

Presentation and Basis of Financial Statements

 

The accompanying audited condensed financial statements include the accounts of Gopher Protocol Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, DirectJV Investments, Inc. (together “Gopher” or the Company”) and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

 

All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Presentation and Basis of Financial Statements

 

The accompanying financial statements include the accounts of Gopher Protocol, Inc., and its wholly-owned subsidiary, DirectJV Investments, Inc. (together “Gopher” or the Company”), and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

 

All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates in the accompanying financial statements include depreciable lives of property and equipment, valuation of beneficial conversion feature debt discounts, valuation of derivatives, valuation of share-based payments and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.

 

Cash

 

The Company considers all highly liquid financial instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

Notes and Short-Term Receivable

 

The notes and short-term receivable are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company measures the impairment of loans based on its historical loan collection experience and existing economic conditions. Impairment is recognized when management believes it is probable that payments will not be received on some portion of the loan, which is determined on an individual loan basis. The Company evaluates loans for impairment on an annual basis or when there are indications that the loan may not be collected. When management determines that a loan is impaired it is placed on non-accrual status, and an allowance for loan losses is established to recognize the estimated amount of impairment. Payments received on non-accrual loans are generally applied to the outstanding principal balance. Loans are removed from non-accrual status when management believes that the borrower will resume making the payments required by the loan agreement.

 

 25 

 

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost and the related depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to operations as incurred. Renewals and betterments are capitalized. Upon the sale or retirement of an asset, the related costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is recognized in the results of operations.

 

As required by U.S. GAAP for long-lived assets, the Company evaluates the fair value of its property and equipment on an annual basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Any impairment of value is recognized when the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. There were no impairment losses for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2016 and December 3, 2014.

 

Fair value measurements

 

Financial instruments and certain non-financial assets and liabilities are measured at their fair value as determined based on the assets highest and best use. GAAP has established a framework for measuring fair value that is based on a hierarchy that requires that the valuation technique used be based on the most objective inputs available for measuring a particular asset or liability. There are three broad levels in the fair value hierarchy that describe the degree of objectivity of the inputs used to determine fair value. The fair value hierarchy is set forth below:

 

Level 1 — inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2 — inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.

Level 3 — inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. They are based on best information available in the absence of level 1 and 2 inputs.

 

The carrying value of financial instruments, which include cash and cash equivalents, notes receivable, notes payable, and accrued expenses, approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.

 

Treasury Stock

 

Treasury stock is recorded at cost. The re-issuance of treasury shares is accounted for on a first in, first-out basis and any difference between the cost of treasury shares and the re-issuance proceeds are charged or credited to additional paid-in capital. During 2011, the Company bought back 8 post-split shares (38,000 pre-split) shares of its own shares. On December 31, 2014, the Company returned 40,000 post-split shares (200,000,000 pre-split shares) to treasury in connection with the dissolution of the licensing agreement with Micrologic.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB Codification Topic 740-10-25 (“ASC 740-10-25”) Income Taxes. Under ASC 740-10-25, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740-10-25, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount of tax benefits expected to be realized.

 

U.S. GAAP requires that, in applying the liability method, the financial statement effects of an uncertain tax position be recognized based on the outcome that is more likely than not to occur. Under this criterion the most likely resolution of an uncertain tax position should be analyzed based on technical merits and on the outcome that would likely be sustained under examination. The Company had no uncertain tax positions as of March 31, 2016. The Company has filed 2014 tax returns.

 

 26 

 

 

The Company’s federal income tax returns are no longer subject to examination by the IRS for the years prior to 2010, and the related state income tax returns are no longer subject to examination by state authorities for the years prior to 2010.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognized revenue on arrangements in accordance with FASB Codification Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition” (“ASC Topic 605”). Under ASC Topic 605, revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed and determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is performed and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. We had revenue of $22,500 and $30,000 for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

 

During the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2016, 100% of the Company’s revenue was related to IT consulting services provided to the Guardian Patch.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

Fair value accounting requires bifurcation of embedded derivative instruments such as conversion features in convertible debt or equity instruments, and measurement of their fair value for accounting purposes. In determining the appropriate fair value, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. In assessing the convertible debt instruments, management determines if the convertible debt host instrument is conventional convertible debt and further if there is a beneficial conversion feature requiring measurement. If the instrument is not considered conventional convertible debt, the Company will continue its evaluation process of these instruments as derivative financial instruments.

 

Once determined, derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect fair value at each reporting period end, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in results of operations as an adjustment to fair value of derivatives. In addition, the fair value of freestanding derivative instruments such as warrants, are also valued using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. 

 

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

 

In accordance with accounting guidance now codified as FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share,” Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, excluding the effects of any potentially dilutive securities. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential of shares of common stock outstanding during the period including stock options or warrants, using the treasury stock method (by using the average stock price for the period to determine the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants), and convertible debt or convertible preferred stock, using the if-converted method. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential of shares of common stock if their effect is anti-dilutive. Because of the Company’s net losses, the effects of stock options, convertible notes, and convertible preferred stock would be anti-dilutive and accordingly, is excluded from the computation of earnings per share.

 

Dividends

 

The Company has not yet adopted any policy regarding payment of dividends.  No dividends have been paid or declared since the Date of Inception.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

As a Smaller Reporting Company, the Company is not required to include the disclosure under this Item.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the applicable period to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.


As a smaller reporting company, without a viable business and revenues, the Company does not have the resources to install a dedicated staff with deep expertise in all facets of SEC disclosure and GAAP compliance. As is the case with many smaller reporting companies, the Company will continue to consult with its external auditors and attorneys as it relates to new accounting principles and changes to SEC disclosure requirements. The Company has found that this approach worked well in the past and believes it to be the most cost effective solution available for the foreseeable future. The Company will conduct a review of existing sign-off and review procedures as well as document control protocols for critical accounting spreadsheets. The Company will also increase management’s review of key financial documents and records.

 

As a smaller reporting company, the Company does not have the resources to fund sufficient staff to ensure a complete segregation of responsibilities within the accounting function. However, Company management does review, and will increase the review of, financial statements on a monthly basis, and the Company’s external auditor conducts reviews on a quarterly basis. These actions, in addition to the improvements identified above, will minimize any risk of a potential material misstatement occurring.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2016, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

 

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this item.

 

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

The GV Note matures January 21, 2017 (the “Maturity Date”) and interest associated with the GV Note is 10% per annum, which is payable on the Maturity Date. The GV Note is convertible into shares of common stock of the Company, at the option of GV Global, at a conversion price of $0.00752734. GV Global has agreed to restrict its ability to convert the GV Note and receive shares of common stock such that the number of shares of common stock held by it in the aggregate and its affiliates after such conversion or exercise does not exceed 4.99% of the then issued and outstanding shares of common stock.
