Item 1.   Business

 

Company History

 

NABUFIT Global, Inc. (“NABUFIT Global” or the “Company”, formerly CryptoSign, Inc., StrategaBiz, Inc., Agricon Global Corporation and Bayhill Capital Corporation), a Delaware Corporation was incorporated in May 1983 in the State of Colorado and re-incorporated in the State of Delaware in April 2008.  On November 30, 2015, the Company consummated a transaction evidenced by an Agreement and Plan of Share Exchange (the "Share Exchange Agreement") dated October 8, 2015, by and among the Company, NABUFIT Global ApS, a Danish company (“NABUFIT Denmark”) and Mads H. Frederiksen and Ulrik Møll  (“Shareholder Representatives”), as the representatives of the shareholders holding one hundred percent (100%) of the issued and outstanding capital stock of NABUFIT Denmark (collectively, the “NABUFIT Shareholders” and each a “NABUFIT Shareholder”), pursuant to which the Company acquired from the NABUFIT Shareholders all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of NABUFIT Denmark in exchange for 15,500,000 shares of the Company (the “Share Exchange”).  As a result of the Share Exchange, the NABUFIT Shareholders, as the former shareholders of NABUFIT Denmark, became the controlling shareholders of the Company and NABUFIT Denmark became a subsidiary of the Company. The Share Exchange was accounted for as a reverse takeover/recapitalization effected by a share exchange, wherein NABUFIT Denmark was considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes.  The capital, share price, and earnings per share amount in these consolidated financial statements for the period prior to the reverse merger were restated to reflect the recapitalization in accordance with the exchange ratio established in the merger.

 

As a result of the Share Exchange, we discontinued our pre-exchange business, acquired the business of NABUFIT Denmark, changed our year end to December 31 and continued the existing business operations of NABUFIT Denmark as a publicly traded company.

 

The Company designs, manufactures and markets the NABUFIT virtual training and fitness products and services, a state-of-the-art online fitness portal (“NABUFIT” or, the “Product”) with the option of connecting existing and future monitoring devices (wearables, etc.) to the Product. The Product incorporates interaction and input through Microsoft® Kinect® and other technologies and the option for personal data collection, coaching and teaching through mentor services.

 

Customers obtain access to the Product through the purchase of monthly or annual memberships and the downloading of the software or mobile device application.  The Product provides custom designed training plans, diet plans and access to mentors and coaching.

 

Through Microsoft® Kinect®, the NABUFIT technology collects data and measures each exercise relatively to a set standard and past performances.  Based on the data collection and registration in the Kinect® module the user will receive immediate feedback, e.g. as a percentage, a graphic or an emoticon depending on how well the exercise has been performed. This provides a unique quality assurance ensuring maximum effect of the training. The quick feedback will also reduce the risk of injuries and streamline time spent on training.  Users can access training data, statistics and results online or through mobile device applications.

 

5

 


Membership of the portal is divided into two levels – a basic membership and a VIP membership.  The difference between the levels of membership is primarily based upon the access to features and to mentors.  The basic membership is available at no cost to download while the VIP membership has a monthly fee.

 

The Product incorporates and features custom workout and fitness plans designed by professional athletes, trainers and sports stars.  In addition, other trainers and participants throughout the world can share plans and results.  The Company has entered into contracts with several world-wide sports and training such as Neymar Junior, Mo Farah, Michael Maze and Peter Shmeichel.

 

The portal also offers a social forum for its users, where users can interact with like-minded members and train with them virtually. Some people will experience increased motivation by being part of a group. The member can allow others to see all or part of his profile. The personal profiles of the members can be matched, so the portal will suggest network and training mates, and thereby helping to ensure the optimum composition. It will be possible to do real-time training with training mates by sharing the screen in a videoconference on the portal.

 

Employees

 

As of December 31, 2016, we had 14 full-time employees. We have no collective bargaining agreements with our employees, and we have not experienced any work stoppages. We consider our relations with our employees to be good.

In addition, the public may read and copy any materials we file with the Commission at its Public Reference Room at 100 F Street N.E., Washington, DC 20549.

Dividends

 

The Company has not paid any cash dividends to date, and has no intention of paying any cash dividends on the Common Stock in the foreseeable future. The declaration and payment of dividends is subject to the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors and to certain limitations imposed under Delaware law.  The timing, amount and form of dividends, if any, will depend upon, among other things, the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, cash requirements, and other factors deemed relevant by the Board of Directors.  The Company intends to retain any future earnings for use in its business.  The Company has never paid dividends on its Common Stock.

 

Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans

 

The Company is required to measure and recognize compensation expense for all share-based payment awards (including stock options) made to employees and directors based on estimated fair value. Compensation expense for equity-classified awards is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as an expense in earnings over the requisite service period.

 

In connection with consummation of the Share Exchange, the Company terminated the 2008 Stock Incentive Plan (“2008 Plan”) put in place by the Company prior to the Share Exchange and plans to adopt a new Stock Incentive Plan in the near future.    As of December 31, 2016, the Company did not have any outstanding options or other awards.

 

Performance Graph

 

As a smaller reporting company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 promulgated under of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, we are electing scaled disclosure reporting obligations and therefore are not required to provide the information requested by this Item.

Implications of being an Emerging Growth Company

 

As a company with less than $1.0 billion in revenue during our last completed fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act. An emerging growth company may take advantage of specified reduced reporting requirements that are otherwise applicable generally to public companies. These reduced reporting requirements that are available to us include:

 

 an exemption from compliance with the auditor attestation requirement on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting; 

 

 an exemption from compliance with any requirement that the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board may adopt regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements; 

 

 reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements; and 

 

 an exemption from the requirements to obtain a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation or a stockholder approval of any golden parachute arrangements. 

 

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an emerging growth company can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We are not choosing to “opt out” of this provision. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that our decision to opt out of the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards is irrevocable.

 

We will remain an “emerging growth company” until the last day of our fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of our first sale of common equity securities pursuant to an effective registration under the Securities Act, or until the earliest of (i) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our total annual gross revenues exceed $1 billion, (ii) the date that we become a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which would occur if the market value of our ordinary shares that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter or (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt during the preceding three year period.

 

Until such time, however, we cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile. Because we have elected to take advantage of certain of the reduced disclosure obligations and may elect to take advantage of other reduced reporting requirements in future filings, the information that we provide to our stockholders may be different than you might receive from other public reporting companies in which you hold equity interests.

Item 7.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

This discussion summarizes the significant factors affecting our consolidated operating results, financial condition, liquidity and capital resources during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in this annual report on Form 10-K.

 

Summary

 

The following discussion highlights the results of operations for NABUFIT Global, Inc. and the principal factors that have affected our financial condition as well as our liquidity and capital resources for the periods described, and provides information that management believes is relevant for an assessment and understanding of the statements of financial condition and results of operations presented herein. The following discussion and analysis are based on the Company’s audited financial statements contained in this Report, which we have prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. You should read the discussion and analysis together with such financial statements and the related notes thereto. 

 

Results of Operations

 

The Company’s consolidated operations include the operations of NABUFIT Global, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries for the year ended December 31, 2016 and from June 26, 2015 (date of inception) through December 31, 2016. The Company’s historical financial statements began with the inception of NABUFIT Denmark on June 26, 2015.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company had a net loss of $4,038,605, which consisted of operating expenses of $4,038,582 and net interest expense of $23.  During the period from June 26, 2015 (date of inception) through December 31, 2015, the Company had a net loss of $372,396, which consisted of operating expenses of $371,746 and interest expense of $650.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Since NABUFIT Denmark’s inception in June 2015, it has incurred significant net losses and negative cash flows from operations. For the year ended December 31, 2016 and for the period from June 26, 2015 (date of inception) through December 31, 2015, we had net losses of $4,038,605 and $372,396, respectively. At December 31, 2016, we had an accumulated deficit of $4,411,001.

 

At December 31, 2016, we had cash of $1,402,626. We have financed our operations principally through private placements of common stock. During 2016, we received net proceeds of $3,139,445 from the issuance of shares of NABUFIT Global, Inc.’s common stock.

 

We could potentially use our available financial resources sooner than we currently expect, and we may incur additional indebtedness to meet future financing needs. Adequate additional funding may not be available to us on acceptable terms or at all. In addition, although we anticipate being able to obtain additional financing through non-dilutive means, we may be unable to do so. Our failure to raise capital as and when needed could have significant negative consequences for our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our future capital requirements and the adequacy of available funds will depend on many factors, including those set forth in the section titled “Risk Factors.”

 

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2016 and the period from June 26, 2015 (date of inception) through December 31, 2015:

New Accounting Standards

 

For details of applicable new accounting standards, please, refer to Note 3 of our Consolidated Financial Statements.  

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting standards generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect both the recorded values of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the revenues recognized and expenses incurred during the reporting period. Our estimates and assumptions affect our recognition of income taxes, the carrying value of our long-lived assets and our provision for certain contingencies.  We evaluate the reasonableness of these estimates and assumptions continually based on a combination of historical information and other information that comes to our attention that may vary our outlook for the future. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions.

 

We suggest that the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, as described in Note 3 of our Consolidated Financial Statements, be read in conjunction with this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. We believe the critical accounting policies that most impact our consolidated financial statements are described in Note 3 of our Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

As a smaller reporting company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 promulgated under of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K, we are electing scaled disclosure reporting obligations and therefore are not required to provide the information requested by this Item.

 

Item 8.  Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

 

Our consolidated financial statements, together with accompanying footnotes, and the report of our independent registered public accounting firm, are set forth on page F-1.

 

Item 9.  Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

 

None.

Item 9A.  Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act.”)) concluded that as of December 31, 2016, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.


Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting


 Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting, defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act, is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Company’s principal executive officer and its principal financial officer and effected by the Company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States and includes those policies and procedures that: 

 

pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company;

provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and

provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting is not intended to provide absolute assurance that a misstatement of our financial statements would be prevented or detected. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.  To mitigate the current limited resources and limited employees, we rely heavily on direct management oversight of transactions, along with the use of legal and accounting professionals. As we grow, we expect to increase our number of employees and engage outsourced accounting professionals, which will enable us to implement adequate segregation of duties within the internal control framework.

 

14

 


During 2016, management of the Company conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control - Integrated Framework. As part of this assessment, management has taken into consideration that we are a small company, and due to the fact that we have a limited number of employees, we are not able to have proper segregation of duties and have limited technical accounting research capabilities. Based on this assessment, management has determined that internal controls were not effective.  The Company has engaged a third-party service provider with the necessary financial expertise to provide additional oversight of financial reporting. In addition, the board of directors, as part of their review of the quarterly and annual financial statements, has complete access to the detailed financial information of the Company for further review and verification of all financial transactions during the reporting periods. Management believes these changes and detailed review by the board of directors enhance our effectiveness over financial reporting to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

 

Attestation Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

This annual report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to an exemption for non-accelerated filers set forth in Section 989G of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting


There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal year and quarter ended December 31, 2016 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Director Independence

 

Our board of directors currently consists of three members.  After April 5, our board of directors will consist of seven members, five of which will be considered independent. We are not currently subject to listing requirements of any national securities exchange that has requirements that a majority of the board of directors be “independent.” Nevertheless, our board of directors has determined that all of our directors qualify as “independent” directors in accordance with listing requirements.  In making these determinations, our board of directors reviewed and discussed information provided by the directors and us with regard to each director’s business and personal activities and relationships as they may relate to us and our management.

 

Except as discussed above, to our knowledge, there have been no events under any bankruptcy act, criminal proceedings and no federal or state judicial or administrative orders, judgments, decrees or findings, no violations of any federal or state securities laws, and no violation of any federal commodities law material to the evaluation of the ability and integrity of any director (existing or proposed), executive officer (existing or proposed), promoter or control person of the Company during the past 10 years.

 

18

 


To our knowledge, there are no material proceedings to which any director (existing or proposed), officer (existing or proposed), affiliate of the Company, any holder of 5% or more of our currently outstanding common stock, any associate of any such director or officer, or any affiliate of such security holder that is adverse to us or has a material interest adverse to us. There are no family relationships among any of the officers and directors.

 

Role of Board in Risk Oversight Process

 

Risk assessment and oversight are an integral part of our governance and management processes. Our board of directors encourages management to promote a culture that incorporates risk management into our corporate strategy and day-to-day business operations. Management discusses strategic and operational risks at regular management meetings and conducts specific strategic planning and review sessions during the year that include a focused discussion and analysis of the risks facing us. Throughout the year, senior management reviews these risks with the board of directors at regular board meetings as part of management presentations that focus on particular business functions, operations or strategies, and presents the steps taken by management to mitigate or eliminate such risks.

 

Our board of directors does not have a standing risk management committee, but rather administers this oversight function directly through our board of directors as a whole, as well as through various standing committees of our board of directors that address risks inherent in their respective areas of oversight. In particular, our board of directors is responsible for monitoring and assessing strategic risk exposure, and our audit committee is responsible for overseeing our major financial risk exposures and the steps our management has taken to monitor and control these exposures. The audit committee also monitors compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. Our nominating and governance committee monitors the effectiveness of our corporate governance guidelines and considers and approves or disapproves any related-person transactions. Our compensation committee assesses and monitors whether any of our compensation policies and programs has the potential to encourage excessive risk-taking.

 

Corporate Governance

Board Committees

 

Our Board of Directors has a standing Audit Committee and Compensation Committee. To date, our Board of Directors has not established a Nominating or Governance Committee, in part because our Board of Directors believes that, at this stage of our development, all of our directors should be actively involved in the matters, which would be addressed by such committees. We may, in the future, establish a Nominating or Governance Committee. We believe each of the directors serving on our Audit Committee is an independent director pursuant to NASD Rule 4200(a) (15).

 

19

 


Audit Committee. Ole Sigetty and Jorn Jensen serve as members of the Audit Committee, with Mr. Sigetty serving as Chairman. Our Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Sigetty satisfies the criteria for an audit committee financial expert under Rule 401(e) of Regulation S-B promulgated by the SEC. Each member of our Audit Committee is able to read and understand fundamental financial statements, including our consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations and statements of cash flows. The functions of the Audit Committee are primarily to: (a) facilitate the integrity of our financial statements and internal controls, (b) oversee our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements related to accounting and/or financial controls, (c) evaluate our independent registered public accounting firm’s qualifications and independence, (d) oversee the performance of any internal audit function that we may adopt and oversee our independent registered public accounting firm, and (e) review our systems of disclosure controls and procedures, internal controls over financial reporting, and compliance with ethical standards related to accounting and/or financial controls we have adopted. Our Board of Directors has adopted a written charter for our Audit Committee, a copy of which is available on the Company’s website, www.nabufitglobal.com. Except as otherwise required by applicable laws, regulations or listing standards or our Audit Committee Charter, major decisions regarding our activities and operations are considered by our Board of Directors as a whole.

 

Compensation Committee. Jorgen Buhl and Morten Albæk serve as members of the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors, with Mr. Buhl serving as Chairman. The functions of our Compensation Committee are primarily to: (a) to oversee the responsibilities of the Board relating to compensation, and (b) to ensure that our compensation plans, programs and values transferred through cash pay, stock and stock-based awards, whether immediate, deferred, or contingent are fair and appropriate to attract, retain and motivate management and are reasonable in view of company economics and of the relevant practices of other, similar companies. Our Board of Directors has adopted a written charter for our Compensation Committee, a copy of which is available on the Company’s website, www.nabufitglobal.com.

 

Director Nominations. Our Board of Directors will consider recommendations for director nominees by shareholders if the names of those nominees and relevant biographical information are submitted in writing to our Corporate Secretary in the manner described for shareholder nominations below under the heading “Proposals of Shareholders.” All director nominations, whether submitted by a shareholder or the Board of Directors, will be evaluated in the same manner.

 

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

 

We have adopted a code of business conduct and ethics that applies to all of our employees, officers and directors, including those officers responsible for financial reporting. The code of business conduct and ethics is available on our website at www.nabufitglobal.com. We expect that any amendments to the code, or any waivers of its requirements, will be disclosed on our website. The reference to our web address does not constitute incorporation by reference of the information contained at or available through our website.

 

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

 

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our directors and executive officers, and any persons who own more than 10% of our common stock to file with the Commission reports of beneficial ownership and changes in beneficial ownership of common stock.  Directors and officers are required by Commission regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.  

20

 


 

Section 16(a) filings in connection with the shares issued in the Share Exchange have not been made.

 

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

 

None of our directors or executive officers has been convicted in a criminal proceeding, excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors, or has been a party to any judicial or administrative proceeding during the past ten years that resulted in a judgment, decree or final order enjoining the person from future violations of, or prohibiting activities subject to, federal or state securities laws, or a finding of any violation of federal or state securities laws, except for matters that were dismissed without sanction or settlement.  Except as set forth in our discussion below in “Transactions with Related Persons; Promoters and Certain Control Persons; Director Independence,” none of our directors, director nominees or executive officers has been involved in any transactions with us or any of our directors, executive officers, affiliates or associates which are required to be disclosed pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

The percentage of shares beneficially owned is computed on the basis of 25,630,120 shares of common stock outstanding April 5, 2017. Shares of common stock that a person has the right to acquire within 60 days of April 5, 2017 are deemed outstanding for purposes of computing the percentage ownership of the person holding such rights, but are not deemed outstanding for purposes of computing the percentage ownership of any other person, except with respect to the percentage ownership of all directors and executive officers as a group.

Transactions with Related Persons  

 

The Company entered into a six-month employment agreement with Brian Mertz, effective July 1, 2016 to December 31, 2016.  The agreement calls for the issuance of 41,667 shares of common stock per month (250,002 total), which were issued and fully expensed during 2016.  These shares were originally recorded at the market price of $0.92 per share but the share price was revised to $0.73 per share effective October 1, 2016 based on the public market price of the Company’s stock.  The full expense of $206,252 was recognized during 2016.

 

In August 2016, the Board of Directors approved stock compensation for the period July 1, 2016 to June 30, 2017.  Each of the four board members will receive 21,739 shares of common stock, the chairman will receive 32,608 shares of common stock and the secretary will receive 8,152 shares of common stock.  The shares will be issued during 2017, prior to the end of the contract period.  These shares were originally recorded at the market price of $0.92 per share ($20,000 per director, $30,000 to the chairman and $7,500 to the secretary) but the share price was revised to $0.73 per share effective October 1, 2016 based on the public market price of the Company’s stock. Expense of $91,925 was recognized during 2016.

 

In August 2016, the Board of Directors approved stock payments for services to Directors Soren Jonassen (31,000 shares) and Ole Sigetty (64,130 shares) for professional services from July 1, 2016 to June 30, 2017.  The shares will be issued during 2017, prior to the end of the contract period.  These shares were originally recorded at the market price of $0.92 per share but the share price was revised to $0.73 per share effective October 1, 2016 based on the public market price of the Company’s stock.  Expense of $261,471 was recognized during 2016.

 

On September 30, 2015, the Company issued 90,000 shares of stock to its three directors for payment of director fees through June 30, 2016. These shares were recorded at the market price of $4.00 per share for a total of $360,000.

On September 30, 2015, the Company assumed the short-term auto lease of a former member of management that ended January 8, 2016.  Monthly payments were 2,975 DKK ($435 at December 31, 2015 spot rate) and the deposit was 15,983 DKK ($2,409).  The Company renewed the auto lease for an additional twelve months, through January 7, 2017 at 2,371 DKK ($346) per month.

 

We have a code of ethics, which was adopted by the Company before the consummation of the Share Exchange and continues to apply to our directors, officers and employees, including our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer (each, a “Covered Person” and, collectively, the “Covered Persons”). As provided in our code of ethics, each of our employees and officers (other than our principal executive officer and principal financial officer) is responsible for reporting to his or her immediate supervisor, and each director and each of our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer is responsible for reporting to the chairman of the audit committee, if such a committee is created, or, in the absence of an audit committee, to the chairman of our board of directors, any potential conflict of interest. The audit committee chairman, if any, or the chairman of our board of directors, as applicable, will determine if a conflict of interest exists, and if so determined, will determine the necessary resolution of such conflict. We intend to re-evaluate our policies and procedures relating to related party transactions, and anticipate adopting changes to our current written policy providing for the formal procedures through which any such potential transaction will be evaluated.

Promoters and Control Persons

On August 29, 2016, the Company entered into a Consulting Services Agreement with JAX Capital Growth, LLC to assist with public relations, financial consulting and corporate financial services. This Agreement expired December 19, 2016. The Company entered into a second Consulting Services Agreement with JAX Capital Growth, LLC on December 15, 2016, which expired March 15, 2017. JAX received 480,000 shares of registered common stock for its services.

On August 19, 2016, the Company entered into a Private Placement and Advisory Agreement with Arrowhead Capital Advisors, a division of Trump Securities, LLC (“Arrowhead”) for services related to the sale of the Company’s securities.  In exchange for its services, Arrowhead received $10,000 and will be paid 10% of the aggregate amount of a Transaction, if and when closed. As of April 5, 2017 no transaction had been closed.

On November 1, 2016, the Company entered into a Finders’ Fee Agreement with Newbridge Securities Corporation (“Newbridge”) for services related to the sale of the Company’s securities.  In exchange for its services, Newbridge received $10,000 and will be paid a cash fee of 10% of the aggregate amount of an equity transaction and 5% of the aggregate amount of a debt transaction, if and when closed.  As of April 5, 2017, no transaction had been closed.

Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans

In connection with consummation of the Share Exchange, the Company terminated the 2008 Stock Incentive Plan (“2008 Plan”) put in place by the Company prior to the Share Exchange and plans to adopt a new Stock Incentive Plan in the near future.   As of the date of this filing, no options or other awards are outstanding and therefore no such awards will be assumed in connection with the Share Exchange and no awards are required to be cancelled.

 

Director Independence

26

 


 

Our board of directors currently consists of five members. We are not currently subject to listing requirements of any national securities exchange that has requirements that a majority of the board of directors be “independent.” Nevertheless, our board of directors has determined that all of our directors qualify as “independent” directors in accordance with listing requirements.  In making these determinations, our board of directors reviewed and discussed information provided by the directors and us with regard to each director’s business and personal activities and relationships as they may relate to us and our management. There are no family relationships among any of our directors or executive officers.

 

Except as discussed above, to our knowledge, there have been no events under any bankruptcy act, criminal proceedings and no federal or state judicial or administrative orders, judgments, decrees or findings, no violations of any federal or state securities laws, and no violation of any federal commodities law material to the evaluation of the ability and integrity of any director, executive officer, promoter or control person of the Company during the past 10 years.

 

To our knowledge, there are no material proceedings to which any director, officer, affiliate of the Company, any holder of 5% or more of our currently outstanding common stock, any associate of any such director or officer, or any affiliate of such security holder that is adverse to us or has a material interest adverse to us. There are no family relationships among any of the officers and directors.

 

Item 14.  Principal Accountant Fees and Services  

 

Sadler, Gibb & Associates, LLC (“Sadler Gibb”) served as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2015 and 2016.  Principal accounting fees for professional services rendered for us by Sadler Gibb for the period from inception (June 26, 2015) through December 31, 2015 and for the year ended 2016 are summarized as follows:

 

2015 Audit fees

2016 Audit fees

$13,000

$37,000

 

 

Audit Fees.  Audit fees were for professional services rendered in connection with the audit of the financial statements included in our annual report on Form 10-K and review of the financial statements included in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and for services normally provided by our independent registered public accounting firm in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements.

 

Tax and Other Fees.  There were no tax or other fees paid during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015.

Board of Directors Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures.  All audit, audit-related, tax, and any other services performed for us by our independent registered public accounting firm are subject to pre-approval by the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors and were pre-approved by the Audit Committee prior to such services being rendered. Our Audit Committee determined that the services provided by, and fees paid to, Sadler Gibb were compatible with maintaining the independent registered public accounting firm’s independence.

27

 


Shareholder ratification of the selection of Sadler Gibb as our independent registered public accounting firm is not required by our Bylaws or otherwise. However, the Audit Committee intends to submit the selection of Sadler Gibb to our shareholders for ratification at our upcoming annual meeting of shareholders as a matter of good corporate governance. If our shareholders fail to ratify the selection, the Audit Committee will reconsider whether or not to retain that firm. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time if the Audit Committee determines that such a change would be in the best interests of NABUFIT and our shareholders.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

 

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders

NABUFIT Global, Inc.

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of NABUFIT Global, Inc. (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2016, and for the period from inception on June 26, 2015 through December 31, 2015. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.    

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits include consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of NABUFIT Global, Inc. as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the consolidated results of its operations and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2016, and for the period from inception on June 26, 2015 through December 31, 2015, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has generated no revenues from its business operations, has incurred operating losses since inception and will need additional working capital for its planned activity, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NABUFIT GLOBAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1 — THE COMPANY AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

Organization — The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and include the operations and balances of NABUFIT Global, Inc. (“NABUFIT Global”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries NABUFIT Global ApS (“NABUFIT Denmark”) a company organized in Denmark on June 26, 2015, NABUFIT China Limited (“NABUFIT China”) a company organized in Hong Kong on October 26, 2016, and NABUFIT IP ApS (“NABUFIT IP”) a company organized in Denmark on January 3, 2017 (collectively “NABUFIT,” “we”, or “the Company”).  NABUFIT Global was incorporated in May 1983 in the State of Colorado and re-incorporated in the State of Delaware in April 2008.  Effective June 20, 2014 the Company sold its prior subsidiary and became a shell company.  

 

On November 30, 2015, we consummated the transaction evidenced by an Agreement and Plan of Share Exchange (the "Share Exchange Agreement") dated October 8, 2015 by and among NABUFIT Global and NABUFIT Denmark, pursuant to which NABUFIT Global acquired from the NABUFIT Denmark shareholders (“NABUFIT Shareholders”) all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of NABUFIT Denmark in exchange for 15,500,000 shares of NABUFIT Global (the “Share Exchange”).  As a result of the Share Exchange, the NABUFIT Shareholders, as the former shareholders of NABUFIT Denmark, became the controlling shareholders of the Company and NABUFIT Denmark became a subsidiary of the Company.  The Share Exchange was accounted for as a reverse merger/recapitalization effected by a share exchange, wherein NABUFIT Denmark is considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes.  The capital, share price, and earnings per share amount in the consolidated financial statements for the period prior to the reverse merger were restated to reflect the recapitalization in accordance with the exchange ratio established in the merger.

 

As a result of the Share Exchange, we discontinued our pre-exchange business, acquired the business of NABUFIT Denmark and will continue the existing business operations of NABUFIT Denmark as a publicly traded company under the name “NABUFIT Global, Inc.”

 

In accordance with “reverse merger” or “reverse acquisition” accounting treatment, the historical financial statements of NABUFIT Global for periods ended prior to the Share Exchange have been replaced with the historical financial statements of NABUFIT Denmark, and will be, in all future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

 

Nature of Operations — The Company designs, manufactures and markets the NABUFIT virtual training and fitness products and services, a state-of-the-art online fitness portal (“NABUFIT” or, the “Product”) with the option of connecting existing and future monitoring devices (wearables, etc.) to the Portal. The Product incorporates interaction and input through Microsoft® Kinect® and other technologies and the option for personal data collection, coaching and teaching through mentor services.

 

Customers obtain access to the Portal through the purchase of monthly or annual memberships and the downloading of the software or mobile device application.  The Product provides custom designed training plans, diet plans and access to mentors and coaching.

F-7

 


 

Through Microsoft® Kinect®, the NABUFIT technology collects data and measures each exercise relatively to a set standard and past performances.  Based on the data collection and registration in the Kinect® module the user will receive immediate feedback, e.g. as a percentage, a graphic or an emoticon depending on how well the exercise has been performed. This provides a unique quality assurance ensuring maximum effect of the training. The quick feedback will also reduce the risk of injuries and streamline time spent on training.  Users can access training data, statistics and results online or through mobile device applications.

 

Membership of the portal will be divided into two levels – a basic membership and a VIP membership.  The difference between the levels of membership will be primarily based upon the access to features and to mentors.

 

The portal also offers a social forum for its users, where users can interact with like-minded members and train with them virtually. Some people will experience increased motivation by being part of a group. The member can allow others to see all or part of his profile. The personal profiles of the members can be matched, so the portal will suggest network and training mates, and thereby helping to ensure the optimum composition. It will be possible to do real-time training with training mates by sharing the screen in a videoconference on the portal.

 

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared with the recognition that there is considerable doubt about whether the Company can continue as a going concern.  As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company incurred a net loss of $4,038,605 for the year ended December 31, 2016 and has an accumulated deficit of $4,411,001 at December 31, 2016.  The Company also used cash in operating activities of $2,876,044 during the year ended December 31, 2016.  At December 31, 2016, the Company had working capital of $1,610,309.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

In order for us to continue as a going concern, we will need to obtain additional debt or equity financing. We are regularly and continually seeking additional funding from investors and from time to time we are in various stages of negotiations.  Nonetheless, to date we have not accomplished a financing of the size needed to put the Company on a stable operating basis. There can be no assurance that we will be able to secure additional debt or equity financing, that we will be able to attain positive cash flow operations, or that, if we are successful in any of those actions, those actions will produce adequate cash flow to enable us to meet our future obligations. All of our existing financing arrangements are short-term. If we are unable to obtain additional debt or equity financing, we may be required to cease operations.

 

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Principles of Consolidation — The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and include operations and balances of NABUFIT Global, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries NABUFIT Denmark and NABUFIT China.  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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  

F-8

 


 

 

 

Fair Value – The fair values of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities approximate their carrying amounts at the reporting date.

 

Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations – The functional currency of NABUFIT Denmark is the Danish Krone (DKK), the functional currency of NABUFIT China is the China Yuan Renminbi (CNY), and the functional currency of NABUFIT Global and the reporting currency is U.S. dollars (USD).  The Company translates the assets and liabilities of NABUFIT Denmark and NABUFIT China from the functional currency to U.S. dollars at the appropriate spot rates as of the balance sheet date. Equity balances are translated using historical exchange rates. Changes in the carrying value of these assets and liabilities attributable to fluctuations in spot rates are recognized in foreign currency translation adjustment, a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Income statement accounts are translated using the average exchange rate during the period.

 

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that is different from the functional currency must first be remeasured from the applicable currency to the functional currency. The effect of this remeasurement process is recognized translation adjustments in our statement of comprehensive loss.

 

The Company had no foreign currency transaction gains or losses during the period from June 26, 2015 (date of inception) through December 31, 2016.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents – The balance in cash and cash equivalents consists of cash reserves held in bank accounts. The Company maintains cash balances in bank accounts that, at times, exceed federally insured limits.  The Company has not experienced any losses in these accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant risk with respect to cash. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, cash deposits per bank statements exceeded the federally insured limits by $1,392,919 and $1,073,107, the balance of cash in the NABUFIT Global, ApS accounts.

 

Revenue Recognition – The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, performance of the service has occurred, the sales price charged is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.  Revenue is net of taxes and discounts and is recorded on an accrual basis.  

 

Software Development Costs – The Company expenses software development costs until the Company has a working business model for the software.

 

Advertising Costs – Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs were $279,088 and $5,878 for the year ended December 31, 2016 and for the period ended December 31, 2015, respectively.

 

Income Taxes – The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 740, Income Taxes, which requires the use of the asset and liability method of accounting for deferred income taxes.  We recognize deferred tax liabilities and assets based on the differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in future years.

 

All allowances against deferred income tax assets are recorded in whole or in part, when it is more likely than not those deferred income tax assets will not be realized.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to be recovered or settled. 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.

 

F-9

 


 

A valuation allowance is required to the extent it is more-likely-than-not that a deferred tax asset will not be realized. ASC 740 also requires reporting of taxes based on tax positions that meet a more-likely-than-not standard and are measured at the amount that is more-likely-than-not to be realized. Differences between financial and tax reporting which do not meet this threshold are required to be recorded as unrecognized tax benefits.

 

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share – Basic loss per common share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per common share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period giving effect to potentially dilutive common stock equivalents.  As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company had no common stock equivalents outstanding.  

 

New Accounting Pronouncements – In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”).  ASU 2016-02 changes the accounting for leases.  In particular, lessees will recognize lease assets and lease liabilities for operating leases.  ASU 2016-02 is not effective until 2019. The Company is currently assessing the impact on its financial reporting of implementing this guidance.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740) (“ASU 2015-17”).  ASU 2015-17 requires that all deferred income tax assets and liabilities be classified as non-current.  ASU 2015-17 is not effective until the 2017 fiscal year.  The Company is currently assessing the impact on its financial reporting of implementing this guidance.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASU 2014-09"). ASU 2014-09 provides for a single, principles-based model for revenue recognition that replaces existing revenue recognition guidance. ASU 2014-09 is effective for the Company on January 1, 2018. It permits the use of either a retrospective or cumulative effect transition method and early adoption is not permitted. The Company has not yet selected a transition method and is in the process of evaluating the effect ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.  During 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Deferral of the Effective Date (“ASU 2015-14”), which deferred the date of ASU 2014-09 by one year.

 

NOTE 4 – LEASES

 

On December 1, 2015, the Company signed a new lease on their office in Fredericia Denmark, which replaced the prior lease and allowed the Company to move to larger office space (159 square meters) within the same building. The new rent is DKK 13,184 per month ($1,900) and the security deposit increased to DKK 80,685 ($12,250).  The lease can be terminated with a six month notice, but not before December 1, 2017.  Rent will increase annually on January 1 based on the consumer price index, with a minimum increase of 2% per year.  Effective March 1, 2016, the Company signed Appendix 1 to the Fredericia lease agreement moving the office to a 190 square meter office located on the first floor of the building.  The rent and security deposit were not changed by the Appendix.  Once the Company utilizes the additional 31 square meters, the rent will increase proportionately.  

 

The Company also leased some office space for approximately $875 per month on a month-to-month contract. The Company paid a deposit of approximately $900 in December 2015.  Monthly rent started in January 2016 and ended in March 2016.  

 

On September 30, 2015, the Company assumed the short-term auto lease of a member of management that ended January 8, 2016.  Monthly payments were approximately $435 and the deposit was $2,400.  The Company renewed the auto lease for an additional twelve months, through January 7, 2017 at $350 per month.  Actual payments are in the functional currency.

F-10

 


 

 

As of December 31, 2016, total lease deposits were approximately $12,250.  Rent expense was $39,727 and $4,826 for year ended December 31, 2016 and for the period ended December 31, 2015, respectively.  Minimum annual lease payments are approximately $23,000, which are all due within one year.

 

NOTE 5 – ACCRUED LIABILITIES

 

As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company had accrued liabilities of $2,304,938 and $33,706, respectively. The accrued liabilities as of December 31, 2016 consist mainly of $2,115,890 due over the next 24 months on the Neymar contract (see Note 9).

 

NOTE 6 – LINE-OF-CREDIT

 

On September 15, 2015, the Company entered into a 600,000 DKK (approximately $90,000) line-of-credit agreement with a bank.  The agreement bears interest at a variable rate of 6.021%, which is renegotiated annually on June 1.  The line of credit is unsecured.  Default interest rate of 19% goes into effect from the first late payment and is calculated on the balance of the outstanding debt.  During 2016 and 2015 the Company utilized the full credit line but then paid it down to zero by year end both years.  The Company paid $138 and $650 in interest during the year ended December 31, 2016 and during the period ended December 31, 2015, respectively.  

 

NOTE 7 – SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

We have authorized capital stock consisting of 100,000,000 shares of $0.0001 par value common stock and 400,000 shares of $0.0001 par value preferred stock. As of December 31, 2016, we had 25,630,120 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, and no shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding.

 

On November 30, 2015, the Company consummated the transaction evidenced by the agreement and plan of share exchange dated October 8, 2015 pursuant to which NABUFIT Global, Inc. issued 15,500,000 common shares of the Company in exchange for the 50,000 issued and outstanding capital stock of NABUFIT Global, ApS.  The net result of this reverse merger transaction was an increase in common shares of 19,387,236 for $248,580.  The 19,387,236 consists of 15,500,000 new shares issued, plus 3,937,236 shares that were issued to prior shareholders of NABUFIT Global, Inc. that came over as part of the reverse merger, less the 50,000 shares that the Company gave up in exchange.  The reverse merger effectively changed the Company’s capital structure from 50,000 common shares, $0.1507 par value, to 19,437,236 common shares, $0.0001 par value.
