This document contains “forward-looking statements”. All statements other than statements of historical fact are “forward-looking statements” for purposes of federal and state securities laws, including, but not limited to, any projections of earnings, revenue or other financial items; any statements of the plans, strategies and objectives of management for future operations; any statements concerning proposed new services or developments; any statements regarding future economic conditions or performance; any statements or belief; and any statements of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing.

 

Forward-looking statements may include the words “may,” “could,” “estimate,” “intend,” “continue,” “believe,” “expect” or “anticipate” or other similar words. These forward-looking statements present our estimates and assumptions only as of the date of this report. Accordingly, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the dates on which they are made. We do not intend, and undertake no obligation, to update any forward-looking statement. You should, however, consult further disclosures we make in future filings of our Annual Report Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K and on Annual 10K.

  - deterioration in general or regional economic conditions;
     
  - adverse state or federal legislation or regulation that increases the costs of compliance, or adverse findings by a regulator with respect to existing operations;
     
  - inability to efficiently manage our operations;
     
  - inability to achieve future sales levels or other operating results; and
     
  - the unavailability of funds for capital expenditures.

12 RETECH CORPORATION

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2018

(Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1. NATURE OF BUSINESS

 

12 Retech Corporation (“we”, “us”, “our”, “12 ReTech”, “RETC”, or the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada, U.S. as DEVAGO INC. on September 8, 2014. On June 8, 2017, the Company amended our Articles of Incorporation to change the name to 12 Retech Corporation. At our core, we are a software company whose technology allows retailers to combat the dual threats of Walmart and Amazon — both online and in physical stores. Our microbrand rollup acquisition strategy allows us to demonstrate the effectiveness of our software, devise and test new products, while providing shareholder value through immediate revenue and earnings growth. The Company operates through our subsidiaries on three continents, Asia, North America and Europe.

 

Principal subsidiaries

 

The details of the principal subsidiaries of the Company are set out as follows:

 

Name of Company   Place of Incorporation   Date of Incorporation   Acquisition Date   Attributable Equity Interest %   Business
12 Retail Corporation (“12 Retail”)   Arizona, USA   Sept. 18, 2017   Formed by 12 Retech Corporation   100%   As a holding Company to execute the Company’s microbrand roll up acquisition strategy as well as to penetrate the North American market with our technology to select retailers.
                     
12 Hong Kong Limited (“12HK”)   Hong Kong, China   Feb. 2, 2014   June 27 2017   100%   Development of our technology and sales of our technology applications.
                     
12 Japan Limited (“12JP”)   Japan   Feb. 12, 2015   July 31, 2017   100%   Consultation and sales of technology applications.
                     
12 Europe AG (“12EU”)   Switzerland   Aug. 22, 2013   Oct. 26,2017   100%   Consultation and sales of technology applications.
                     
E-motion Apparel, Inc.   California, USA   Sept. 9, 2010   May 1, 2018   100%   A subsidiary of 12 Retail and is the first microbrand acquired under the microbrand acquisition roll up strategy. Operates its own production facilities that can be utilized by all of the Company’s future microbrands.

 

NOTE 2. GOING CONCERN

 

The Company accounts for going concern matters under the guidance of ASU 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entities Ability to Continue as a Going Concern” (“ASU 2014-15”). The guidance in ASU 2014-15 sets forth management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern as well as required disclosures. ASU 2014-15 indicates that, when preparing financial statements for interim and annual financial statements, management should evaluate whether conditions or events, in the aggregate, raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the date the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. This evaluation should include consideration of conditions and events that are either known or are reasonably knowable at the date the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued, as well as whether it is probable that management’s plans to address the substantial doubt will be implemented and, if so, whether it is probable that the plans will alleviate the substantial doubt.

 

8
 

 

These interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will continue to realize it assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. As of March 31, 2018, the Company has incurred losses totaling $3,283,969 since inception, has not yet generated significant revenue from its operations, and will require additional funds to maintain our operations. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate future profitable operations and/or obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they become due. The Company intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months through continued financial support from its shareholders, the issuance of debt securities and private placements of common stock. These interim financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

NOTE 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2018. Notes to the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements that would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the audited consolidated financial statements for fiscal year 2017 have been omitted. This report should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the footnotes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 included in the Company’s Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 16, 2018.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries 12HK, 12JP, and 12EU and 12 Retail. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. We currently have no investments accounted for using the equity or cost methods of accounting.

 

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. The estimates and judgments will also affect the reported amounts for certain revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these good faith estimates and judgments.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation.

 

Software Development Costs

 

At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, software development costs totaled $53,944 and $0, respectively. Capitalized costs related to the software under development are treated as an asset until the development is completed and the software is available for sale. The Company will amortize the software costs on a straight-line basis over the estimated life of the software product’s expected life cycle, commencing when the software is first available for general release to customers.

 

9
 

 

Concentrations

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2018, one customer accounted for 100% of revenues. During the three months ended March 31, 2017, two customers accounted for 99% of revenues. One customer represented 100% of the accounts receivable as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” The Company has evaluated the new guidance and its adoption did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements and a cumulative effect adjustment under the modified retrospective method of adoption will not be necessary. The will be no change to the Company’s accounting policies.

 

Net Loss Per Share of Common Stock

 

The Company follows ASC 260, “Earnings per Share” (“EPS”), which requires presentation of basic EPS on the face of the income statement for all entities with complex capital structures and requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation. In the accompanying financial statements, basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.

 

Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities were exercised or converted into common stock or other contracts to issue common stock resulting in the issuance of common stock that would then share in the Company’s earnings subject to anti-dilution limitations. In a period in which the Company has a net loss, all potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation of diluted shares outstanding as they would have an anti-dilutive impact. For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, potentially dilutive common shares consist of common stock issuable upon the conversion of Series A Preferred Stock (using the if converted method). All potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the computation of diluted weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding as they would have had an anti-dilutive impact.

 

Financial Instruments

 

The Company’s financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and due to stockholders. The carrying amounts of such financial instruments approximate their respective estimated fair value due to the short-term maturities and approximate market interest rates of these instruments.

 

Convertible notes payable with characteristics of both liabilities and equity are classified as either debt or equity based on the characteristics of its monetary value, with convertible notes classified as debt being measured at fair value, in accordance with ASC 480-10, “Accounting for Certain Financial instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity.”

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those identified below, and those discussed in the section titled “Risk Factors” included elsewhere in this filing.

 

The Business:

 

At our core, we are a software company whose technology allows retailers to combat the dual threats of Walmart and Amazon, both online and in physical stores. Our microbrand rollup acquisition strategy allows us to demonstrate the effectiveness of our software, devise and test new products, while providing shareholder value through immediate revenue and earnings growth. The Company operates through our subsidiaries on three continents: 12 Hong Kong, Limited (“12HK”, “12 Hong Kong, Ltd.”), 12 Japan, Limited (“12JP”, “12 Japan, Ltd.”), 12 Europe A.G. (“12EU”, “12 Europe AG”), and 12 Retail Corporation (“12 Retail”) (and its subsidiary, E-Motion Apparel, Incorporated (“EAI”, “E-Motion Apparel, Inc.”) in North America).

 

The Subsidiaries:

 

-12 Hong Kong, Ltd. a corporation organized in the special economic region of Hong Kong. On June 27, 2017 the Company acquired 12 Hong Kong, Ltd. in a share exchange transaction (See Section 7 of the form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 Management Discussion & Analysis). This is the technology company that manages all the Company’s proprietary and licensed technology that is utilized and sold by the other subsidiaries. In addition, this subsidiary serves as an additional marketing and sales hub for Asia, particularly the Chinese market, excluding Japan.

 

-12 Japan, Ltd. a corporation organized in Japan. The Company acquired 12 Japan, Ltd, located in Tokyo, Japan on July 31, 2017 in a share exchange (See Section 7 of the form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 Management Discussion & Analysis). This subsidiary operates in the country of Japan. It is this subsidiary that services our first customer, Itoya Ltd, where our technology was successfully implemented and proven.

 

-12 Europe A.G. a corporation organized in Switzerland. The Company acquired 12 Europe A.G. on October 26, 2017 in a share exchange.

All of the microbrands that are acquired will retain their own brand names and identities although they will share some economies of scale and benefit from the management expertise, resources and capital allocation available as a subsidiary of the Company.

See Form 8–K dated March 15, 2018 & April 27, 2018

 

OVERVIEW OF OPPORTUNITY

 

Brick and mortar retailers continue to struggle against online competition, even though online sites haven’t changed in many years. Consumers are now looking for new ways to purchase products, with a larger focus on individualism and social sharing. Retailers and merchants are searching for new ways to entice consumers through software technologies that engage consumers both online and in the physical store. These disruptive changes are affecting merchants and retailers and all stages of their supply chains from design and manufacture to distribution and logistics.

 

17
 

 

We believe that although the brick and mortar retailers are not all going to just disappear, they will evolve because consumers shop when they enjoy the shopping experience. Online merchants are forced to adapt as the landscape continues to get more competitive. Both online and physical merchants are learning that as consumer’s shopping habits change, traditional marketing and advertising mediums such as television are much less effective. We call this combination of forces, the “Consumer Shift”. This Consumer Shift is driving a convergence of the online/mobile merchant with the physical retailer, as we have seen with Amazon’s acquisition of Whole Foods, Inc. and their opening of physical book stores, and Walmart’s acquisition of Jet.com. This convergence will continue. Management believes that the Company’s software and technology can benefit almost all retailers. The Company will initially focus on the Apparel and Cosmetics sectors where they believe we can have the biggest impact.

 

The Company’s business strategy is twofold. First, we design, sell and implement software that helps retailers to improve their physical store and online sales operations. 12 ReTech owns and licenses several technologies that will be useful to the retailer who is looking to survive the current business environment and even allow these new leaders to thrive in their businesses.

 

Second, we plan to acquire multiple consumer product microbrands in an effort to take advantage of the current slump in the global retail industry. We will use our technology, our management and operational expertise and working capital to improve the microbrands that we acquire and will demonstrate to the investor community as well as the retail industry that our technology and expertise can create significant uplifted revenue and profit results for our retailer clients. By improving our microbrands and expanding their brand awareness and their operations, we hope to create additional value for 12 ReTech’s investors. By using the Company’s technology to improve the Company’s microbrands, the technology which is licensed to retailer customers will also become more effective for and attractive to outside retailer customers.

 

We believe that the Company benefits shareholders by generating its revenue and earnings two ways:

 

  1. The revenue and earnings generated from its microbrands, and
  2. The revenue generated through the sale and/or licensing of its proprietary software and technology to third party retailers and merchants.

 

The Company’s patent pending proprietary technology products, software and services, as well as management expertise, directly addresses the Consumer Shift with software solutions that engage consumers both in the physical store and online, encourage social sharing, and advertising while lowering retailer and merchants’ operating costs. We will also deploy our technology offerings and management expertise at our microbrands where we demonstrate its effectiveness and develop additional feature sets.

 

As further outlined in the Company’s Annual 10-K, the software has already been successfully adopted and deployed in the Itoya store in Tokyo and are in talks to install in the Manor A.G. department stores in Switzerland. The Company’s brand new 12Sconti APP has been well received and is being promoted by retailers in Switzerland in advance of its planned May 2018 launch. In the United States, in January 2018 the Company hosted nearly 60 top retail executives in association with the National Retail Foundation where it introduced its technology to favorable reviews, and has received interest from retailer in the U.S., Mexico, and Brazil as well. For additional information please read our Annual 2017 Form 10-K.

 

Acquisition Strategy:

 

In addition, management has a clear acquisition strategy as outlined further in the Company’s Annual 2017 Form 10-K to acquire microbrands. Management believes that there is a strong opportunity to acquire microbrands based on industry wide bottom of the trough valuations that, through the deployment of our technology, can produce outsized investment returns and be generally accretive to our business. Each of our microbrands will be complementary to each other and generally benefit from our technologies. With the acquisition of significant profitable microbrands, the Company becomes self-sufficient, and is able to generate its own cash flow to minimize the need to raise additional capital to support its software development, sales and deployment.

Management formed 12 Retail Corporation in Arizona, U.S.A to acquire microbrands and manage its microbrand strategy. The Company succeeded with its first acquisition of E-motion Apparel, Inc. on March 12, 2018 (“EAI”), a California corporation founded in 2011, which itself owns five microbrands that target specific niche markets: Emotion Apparel, Lexi-Luu Dancewear, Punkz Gear, Cleo VII and Skipjack Dive & Dance Wear. This company is now located in Salt Lake City, Utah to take advantage of a “pro-business” environment that features a well-educated and eager to work employee market, and operates its own production facility that management believes can be utilized by all of the Company’s future microbrand acquisitions as a competitive advantage to produce many small production runs of garments that can keep online sales channels fresh, as well as speeding up the design and creation of samples such that large scale off-shore production can be implemented more rapidly. However, the effective date of the acquisition of E-motion Apparel is May 1st, 2018. See Form 8-K dated March 15, 2018 & April 27, 2018.

 

As already mentioned in Company 2017 Form 10-K, the Company has targeted a number of other potential acquisitions and has executed of three Letters of Intent (“LOI”) to acquire: Colorado Trading and Clothing Company d/b/a Active Fashion Group, The J. Peterman Company, LLC, and Krazy Larry, Inc. The Company is in the process of performing due diligence and finalizing negotiations. If acquisitions are completed, they would add an additional $45 million in annual revenue. In addition, the Company expects to similarly benefit from the synergies between the other microbrands and the Company’s proprietary technologies.

 

Technology Strategy:

 

Management has developed a software strategy, which creates a fully-integrated shopping experience that utilizes all aspects of social networking. This technology is referred to as the “12 Technology Suite” or “12 ReTech Suite”. The 12 ReTech Suite provides an interactive shopping cart that seamlessly combines shopping and social networking for a fun and unique shopping experience. The 12 ReTech Suite integrates physical store, online, and mobile shopping, while interactive advertising screens provide special offers from shops, restaurants, and service providers. Over the past 36 months, the Company has developed a proprietary technology suite (software, hardware (the 12Mirror), applications for the iPhone, iPad, and Android phones and tablets (12Mobile APP) that integrates traditional shopping, on-line shopping, entertainment and social networking into a “Totally Integrated Retail Platform”.

 

We deployed our software technology strategy with our first client in a fully-integrated 13 story storefront in Tokyo, Japan. It has been running successfully since early 2016. In the meantime, we have been in active negotiations with a Japanese information technology company for distribution representation in Japan and are now working on an enhancement project focusing our system on Promotion / Advertising activities in nearby vicinities.

 

The 12 ReTech Experience

 

USXS Unifying Shopping eXperience System® - Management believes that the USXS is the solution for all retail problems related to reaching the consumer; the connector of any available technology system and the generator of a truly shopping and entertainment experience for consumers. Our technology is based on the full integration of the 12Mirror / 12ADScreen or 12Display connected with the 12Kiosk, the 12Mobile APP, 12Administrative App and the 12 Online Solutions. This entire set of will enable consumers to shop independently and freely share their shopping experiences with friends.

 

We call this the “12 Experience”. We believe that the 12 Experience offers both retailers and customers an exciting time saving and efficient way to enjoy and to fully become immersed within the traditional retail environment.

 

The 12 ReTech Suite

 

The 12 ReTech Suite offers a spectrum of smart devices – from mirrors to PR screens to kiosks and more – to help retailers reach new consumers, increase visibility across all channels and provide a better service which includes the following applications: 12Mirror, 12Kiosk, 12ADScreen or 12Display, 12Mobile APP, 12Administrative APP and 12Sconti APP. 12 ReTech brings social media to life in a rich, totally immersive and exciting environment. In the store, consumers can connect instantaneously with any available social networking system like Facebook, Skype, WhatsApp, Line, Instagram, and others. Consumers can share pictures and videos, and can get personal feedback from their families and friends.

 

19
 

 

For the first stage of our mobile app, we are targeting small and middle level retailers as well as service providers. In stage two, we will target people who have skills and want to provide them privately (Person to Person) generating additional value for consumers. We believe that the concept of allowing the Consumer to have fun, receive special offers and be entertained during their shopping experience is very important. 12 ReTech makes the consumer feel special, important and empowered, allowing them to choose the best offer available right now at the store they are in or at stores in the vicinity.

 

For an in depth description of each of our technologies and tools included in 12 ReTech Suite, please refer to the Company’s 2017 Annual Form 10-K.

 

Intellectual Property

 

The Company has three patents pending covering its Intellectual Property and has patents already owned. This is fully detailed in the Company’s Annual 2017 Form 10-K.

 

In addition, through the acquisition of E-motion Apparel Inc. the Company acquired the rights to 156 fabric patterns as well as the proprietary process for making the fashion clothing owned and marketed by the Company.

 

The Company intends to continue its development of its technologies and will continue to apply for patents for future product developments. The Company’s strategy is to protect the technologies with patents in Europe, U.S. and China. Following product development, each product, based on the technologies, will be further protected individually by new patent filings worldwide.

 

QUARTER ENDED March 31, 2018 COMPARED TO THE QUARTER ENDED March 31, 2017

 

During the quarter ended March 31, 2018, we incurred a net loss of net loss of $870,230 compared to a net loss of $47,126 for the quarter ended March 31, 2017. The increase in our net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 over the comparable period of the prior year is primarily due to the increase in General and administrative (G&A) expenses of $401,316, professional fees of $225,895 and Interest Expense of $147,950 compared to the same period in the prior year.

 

On June 27, 2017 the Company acquired 12 Hong Kong, Ltd which is accounted for as a reverse merger such that the financials of the Company are those of the acquired entity which as a result of this transaction became the public entity. In addition, the subsidiaries 12 Japan Ltd, 12 Europe A.G. and 12 Retail Corporation were added to the Company during the second half of 2017, and therefore the quarter ended March 31, 2018 includes for the first time the operations of these four subsidiaries.

 

The largest increase in G&A is the increase in compensation expense due to the addition of employees and management in order to execute the Company’s business plan. In addition, the increase was also attributable to trade show and travel expenses associated with the raising of capital and investor relations during the quarter ended March 31, 2018. Whereas there were no capital raising activities and or investor relations activities during the same period in 2017.

 

20
 

 

The Company also incurred professional fee expenses primarily from legal and consulting services of $231,629 resulting from the Company being publicly listed. There were no such costs during the prior comparable period of 2017.

 

Lastly, as a result of the capital raised, the Company incurred interest expense of $147,950 during the quarter ended March 31, 2018 as opposed to zero in the prior comparable period of 2017.

 

Overall, the Company is expending working capital to further their business plan. This includes the further development, refinement and improvement of their software and its adaptation to various European languages and geography. The Company is also expending working capital on the development of new technology which is designed to further enhance the attractiveness of their offerings to their target customer base.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The Company has met its current capital requirements primarily through the issuance of debt-equity and preferred stock. Management views the working capital that is raised through debt-equity or preferred equity offerings as being equivalent to raising working capital via common equity subscriptions, but with the added bonus of allowing the common equity value to rise through the passage of time and simultaneous achievement of the Company’s business goals. Any conversion of debt into equity could occur at a higher equity valuation then the Company currently has. The Company has reserved the right to repurchase these debt-equity interests and preferred stock at a predetermined premium should management determine that this is in the best interests of shareholders at an appropriate future point in time.

 

Operating expenses for the Company have been paid from revenue as well as from the issuance of debt-equity and preferred stock subscriptions. As of March 31, 2018, the Company had a deficit in working capital (current liabilities in excess of current assets) of $1,716,577. A portion of this working capital deficit has been financed loans from stockholders. As of March 31, 2018, amounts owed to stockholders totaled $694,850. The working capital deficit as of December 31, 2017 was $1,064,961. The increase in working capital deficit when compared to December 31, 2017 was principally due to an increase in notes payable (“debt-equity”) and to a lesser extent, an increase in accounts payable.

 

The Company has financed our cash flow requirements through the issuance of debt-equity and preferred stock. As the Company expands, we may continue to experience net negative cash flows from operations, pending generation of significant revenues. Additionally, we anticipate obtaining additional financing to fund operations through debt-equity and preferred stock offerings to the extent available or to obtain additional financing to the extent necessary to augment our working capital balances.

 

Management believes that our microbrand roll-up acquisition strategy if successful would provide significant revenues, potential profits as well as access to traditional bank and asset-based credit lines. In addition, Management believes that existing shareholders, lenders and prospective new investors will provide the additional cash needed to meet our obligations as they become due.

 

As a subsequent event, the Company on April 12, 2018 engaged with Tellson Securities, Inc. (F/K/A 41 North Securities), a licensed investment bank to raise $5 million in additional preferred equity for the Company’s operations and provide the working capital to improve the operations of future acquisitions, once they are transacted. Tellson Securities, Inc. has also indicated it would like to assist the Company to up-list at the appropriate time to a recognized exchange which management believes would make it easier for the Company to raise additional capital at even more attractive rates.

 

The Company hopes to generate sufficient revenues from operations in order to eliminate or reduce the need to sell additional equity or obtain additional debt. However, there can be no assurance we will be successful in raising the necessary funds to execute our high growth business plan.

 

21
 

 

At March 31, 2018, the Cash and Cash Equivalents balance was $47,085 compared to $100,264 as of December 31, 2017. The primary reason for the decrease is a higher level of investment in product development that was paid out in the three month period ending March 31, 2018.

 

During the 3 months ended March 31, 2018, current liabilities increased by $636,847 when compared to December 31, 2017. The primary reason for the increase was an increase in notes payable (“debt-equity”) due to unrelated parties, amounts due to stockholders and to a lesser extent, increase in accounts payable.

 

The Company’s lack of operating history makes predictions of future operating results difficult to ascertain. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies at our stage, particularly companies in new and rapidly evolving markets. Our roll up acquisition strategy seeks to mitigate some of those risks but until more acquisitions can be completed we cannot include their results in our projection of cash needs.

 

The Company acquired its first microbrand with the acquisition of E-motion Apparel, Inc., on March 12, 2018, however the effective date is May 1, 2018. See our Form 8-K dated April 27, 2018 E-motion Apparel Inc. may contribute as much as $1.4 million in revenue and $300,000 in EBITDA in the first twelve months of operations after acquisition. Management believes that this acquisition proves the viability of our accretive share exchange acquisition model and anticipates the ability to announce future acquisitions throughout 2018 and beyond.

 

Risks include, but are not limited to, an evolving and unpredictable business model and the management of growth and the consummation and assimilation of multiple acquisitions. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. To address these risks, we must, among other things, increase our customer base, implement and successfully execute our business and marketing strategy, respond to competitive developments, and attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in addressing such risks, and the failure to do so can have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern. Since we have not generated significant revenue, we have negative cash flows from operations, and negative working capital we have included a reference to the substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern in connection with our consolidated financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2018. Our total accumulated deficit as of March 31, 2018 was $3,283,969.

 

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which assumes that adequate sources of financing will be obtained as required and that our assets will be realized, and liabilities settled in the ordinary course of business. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we may cease operations and not be able to execute on operating plans. Accordingly, these consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability of assets and classification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Elected Mandatory Filer Status

 

The Company filed Form 8A-12G with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 16, 2018 and therefore became a mandatory filer with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported assets, liabilities, and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We use assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Future events, however, may differ markedly from our current expectations and assumptions. We believe there have been no significant changes in accounting policies for the period ended March 31, 2018. See Note 3 to the consolidated statements in this Quarterly Report for a complete discussion of our significant accounting policies and estimates.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet adopted, accounting standards in order to determine their effects, if any, on its consolidated results of operation, financial position or cash flows. Based on that review, the Company believes that none of these pronouncements will have a significant effect on its consolidated financial statements. See Note 3 to the consolidated statements in this Annual Report for a complete discussion of our significant accounting policies and estimates.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

This item in not applicable as we are currently considered a smaller reporting company.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as of March 31, 2018 were not effective such that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. A control system cannot provide absolute assurance, however, that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.

 

Management’s Quarterly Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.

 

Our management, with the participation of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2018. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control – Integrated Framework. Based on the criteria established by COSO, management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of March 31, 2018 as a result of the identification of the material weaknesses described below.

 

23
 

 

Specifically, management identified the following control deficiencies: (1) The Company has not properly segregated duties as one or two individuals initiate, authorize and complete all transactions. The Company has not implemented measures that would prevent the individuals from overriding the internal control system.; (2) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of both US GAAP and SEC guidelines and (3) the Company has installed accounting software that does not prevent erroneous or unauthorized changes to previous reporting periods and does not provide an adequate audit trail of entries made in the accounting software.

 

Our Company plans to take steps to enhance and improve the design of our internal controls over financial reporting. During the period covered by this annual report on Form 10-K, we have not been able to remediate the material weaknesses identified above. To remediate such weaknesses, we plan to implement the following changes during our fiscal year ending December 31, 2018: (i) appoint additional qualified personnel to address inadequate segregation of duties and ineffective risk management; and (ii) adopt sufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting. The remediation efforts set out are largely dependent upon our securing additional financing to cover the costs of implementing the changes required. If we are unsuccessful in securing such funds, remediation efforts may be adversely affected in a material manner.

 

Accordingly, while the Company has identified certain material weakness in its system of internal control over financial reporting, it believes that is has taken reasonable steps to ascertain that the financial information contained in this report is in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Management has determined that current resources would be appropriately applied elsewhere and when resources permit, they will alleviate material weaknesses through various steps.

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

As of March 31, 2018, there were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting known to the Chief Executive Officer or the Chief Accounting Officer that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

 

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

The Company is presently not party to any legal proceedings.

 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

 

Our investors should consider the risks that could affect us and our business as set forth in Item 1A, Risk Factors of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. There has been no material change from the risks that had been set forth in that Report.

 

Although we have attempted to discuss meaningful factors, our investors need to be aware that other factors and risks may become important in the future. New risks may emerge at any time. We cannot predict such risks or estimate the extent to which they may affect our operations and financial performance. Investors should carefully consider the discussion of risks and the other information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the Cautionary Information Regarding Forward-Looking Information provided above in Part I, Item 2, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of equity AND USE OF PROCEEDS

 

Our common stock was traded under our former name DEVAGO, INC. on the over-the-counter pink market from December 30, 2014 to June 8, 2017 under the symbol “DVGG”. Effective June 8, 2017 the Company changed its name to 12 ReTech Corporation and effective on or around June 8, 2017 the quotation symbol was changed to “RETC” where our stock traded on OTC MARKET’s over-the-counter pink sheet market. On March 16, 2018, the Company filed Form 8A-12G and became a mandatory filer with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission

 

On June 22, 2017, the Company effected its 6:1 forward split. On the days immediately following the split, the bid ranged from $250 - $500, but since no shares traded, we took the highest bid during the quarter when shares actually traded.
