XTRIBE P.L.C.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

 

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Nature of the Business

 

XTRIBE P.L.C. was originally registered as a private limited company in the United Kingdom as MEC FOOD (UK) LTD on December 12, 2011. On May 12, 2014, MEC FOOD (UK) changed its name to XTRIBE Limited. On April 30, 2016, the XTRIBE Limited was registered as a public limited company and changed its name to XTRIBE P.L.C.

 

On March 17, 2017, XTRIBE, P.L.C. formed a wholly owned subsidiary, XTRIBE USA Corp. in the State of Delaware. This corporation will be responsible for operations in the United States.

 

On March 9, 2018, XTRIBE, P.L.C. formed a wholly owned subsidiary, XTRIBE SUISSE SA in Switzerland. This corporation wll be responsible for operations in Switzerland.

 

XTRIBE P.L.C. and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the “Company.”

 

The Company has developed a free smartphone application which allows the user to sell, buy, swap and rent objects and services utilizing an active geolocation tool which locates all potential customers within any specified geographic target. Transactions can be completed without any intermediary, directly between the party and counter-party, without any commissions or third-party payments. Users have the option of customizing the app to best promote commerce. The Company derives revenues by its B2B division, XTRIBE Store. The XTRIBE application is available for Apple and Android devices and can be easily downloaded for free to a user’s mobile device. Once installed, the user establishes a free account and can immediately transact and communicate with other users.

 

The Company’s principal office is located in London, England.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been condensed. The accompanying unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 as filed with the SEC. 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.

 

The Company is an emerging growth company as the term is used in The Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act enacted on April 5, 2012 and has elected to comply with certain reduced public company reporting requirements.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

In accordance with FASB ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition,” the Company recognizes revenue when (i) persuasive evidence of a customer or distributor arrangement exists, (ii) a retailer, distributor or wholesaler receives the goods and acceptance occurs, (iii) the price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability of revenue is reasonably assured.

 

Comprehensive Loss

 

The Company follows Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”) 220, “Comprehensive Income,” in reporting comprehensive income. Comprehensive income is a more inclusive financial reporting methodology that includes disclosure of certain financial information that historically has not been recognized in the calculation of net income. The Company has one item of other comprehensive income (loss), consisting of a foreign translation adjustment.

 

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The management makes the estimates based on its knowledge about current events and expectations about actions that it may undertake in the future. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.

 

Foreign Currency Transactions and Translation

 

The functional currency of the operations of the Company is the Euro. The capitalization of the Company is provided in British pounds (“GBP”) and US dollars, while the Company transacts a majority of its other transactions including loans from shareholders in Euros, which makes the Euro the functional currency. Gains and losses resulting from transactions in currencies other than the functional currency of the Company are recorded in the statement of operations for the reporting periods as part of general and administrative expense. Included in general and administrative expenses were foreign currency transaction losses of $52,577 and $6,097 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.

 

The reporting currency of the Company is the United States (U.S.) dollar. The financial statements in functional currency are translated to U.S. dollars using the closing rate of exchange for assets and liabilities and average rate of exchange for the statement of operations. The capital accounts are translated at historical rate. Translation gains and losses are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income as a component of shareholders’ equity.

 

Advertising Costs

 

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs were $9,163 and $36,808 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, and are included in sales and marketing expenses.

 

Basic and Diluted Net Income per Share of Ordinary Shares

 

The Company follows FASB ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share,” when reporting Earnings Per Share resulting in the presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Because the Company has no ordinary share equivalents, and has net losses for all periods presented, therefore, the amounts reported for basic and diluted loss per share were the same.

 

Research and Development Costs

 

In accordance with FASB ASC 730, research and development costs are expensed when incurred. Research and development costs for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 were $94,352 and $104,201.

 

Software development costs that were incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 have been expensed as incurred and recorded in research and development costs in the statement of operations.

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

As of March 31, 2018 and for the period then ended, there were no recently adopted accounting pronouncements that had a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

 

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

 

As of March 31, 2018, there are no recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted which would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements through 2018.

 

NOTE 2 – MANAGEMENT PLANS

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred significant losses and experienced negative cash flow from operations since inception. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Since inception, the Company has focused on developing and implementing its business plan. The Company believes that its existing cash resources will not be sufficient to sustain operations during the next twelve months. The Company currently needs to generate revenue in order to sustain its operations. In the event that the Company cannot generate sufficient revenue to sustain its operations, the Company will need to reduce expenses or obtain financing through the sale of debt and/or equity securities. The issuance of additional equity would result in dilution to existing shareholders. If the Company is unable to obtain additional funds when they are needed or if such funds cannot be obtained on terms acceptable to the Company, the Company would likely be unable to execute upon the business plan or pay costs and expenses as they are incurred, which would have a material, adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Based upon the current cash position and the Company’s planned expense run rate, management believes the Company does not have funds currently to finance its operations through June 2018.

 

NOTE 3 – OTHER RECEIVABLE

 

On September 30, 2016, the Company entered into an agency agreement whereby the agent would receive five percent of all sales that the agent introduced to the Company. In addition, the agent would reimburse the Company 55 percent of the software development costs that the Company had expended, which were $638,720 as of September 30, 2016. Therefore, the amount of $351,296 was billed to the agent in British pounds (£262,288) and was to be paid by December 31, 2016 and has been recorded as other receivable. As a result of fluctuations in the exchange rates the amount of the other receivable was $296,991 as of March 31, 2018. The Company has extended the payment terms of the receivable, as the amounts due are from a vendor. The Company has fully reserved this receivable.

 

NOTE 4 – LOANS PAYABLE – OTHER

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company issued an additional $60,743 in loans payable.

 

The loans are interest-free and unsecured with no formal repayment terms. The balance of the loans payable – other at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017 was $166,302 and $101,818. The increase in value in the account, after considering the $60,743 additional loan, as of March 31, 2018 compared to December 31, 2017 relates to the change in the foreign exchange rate.

 

NOTE 4 – LOANS PAYABLE – SHAREHOLDERS

 

On January 10, 2018, the Company obtained a loan from a shareholder in the amount of $123,187 (See Note 8). Additionally, during the first quarter, this shareholder exchanged $300,782 of this loan for 228,038 ordinary shares Series B of the Company.

 

The loans are interest-free and unsecured with no formal repayment terms. The decrease in value in the account, after considering the $123,187 additional loan and the exchange of shares, as of March 31, 2018 compared to December 31, 2017 relates to the change in the foreign exchange rate.

 

NOTE 5 – INCOME TAXES

 

Income tax expense was $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.

 

 

As of January 1, 2018, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits, and accordingly, the Company did not recognize interest or penalties during 2018 related to unrecognized tax benefits. There has been no change in unrecognized tax benefits during the three months ended March 31, 2018, and there was no accrual for uncertain tax positions as of March 31, 2018. Tax years from 2014 through 2017 remain subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions.

 

There is no income tax benefit for the losses for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, since management has determined that the realization of the net tax deferred asset is not assured and has created a valuation allowance for the entire amount of such benefits.

 

NOTE 6 – SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

During the first quarter of 2018, the Company sold 351,500 ordinary shares Series B for $466,629 and exchanged 228,038 ordinary shares Series B for $300,782 in loans payable – shareholder.

 

The ordinary shares Series B have no voting rights and are not negotiable in the United States.

 

NOTE 7 – OPERATING LEASES

 

As of March 31, 2018, the Company was not obligated under any non-cancelable operating lease arrangements.

 

NOTE 8 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

The Company has a consulting arrangement with a company in which the Chief Financial Officer has a material interest. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, this company was owed $0 and $20,364. During the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company expensed $32,801 and $37,225 to this company.

 

The Company has a consulting arrangement with a company in which the Chief Financial Officer is a director. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, this company was owed $0. During the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company expensed $78,966 and $59,680.

 

The Company received shareholder loans from a company in which the Chief Financial Officer has a material interest. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the balance of the loans was $343,260 and $333,784, the change in the balance resulting from the foreign currency translation.

 

As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company owed $131,882 and $299,465 to one of the shareholders who is also the Chief Financial Officer of the Company (See Note 3).

 

At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company owed shareholders other than those described above $522,313 and $507,892.

 

 

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

 

Forward Looking Statements

 

This Interim Report on Form 10-Q contains, in addition to historical information, certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (“PLSRA”), Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) regarding XTribe P.L.C. (the “Company” or “XTribe”, also referred to as “us”, “we” or “our”). Forward-looking statements give our current expectations or forecasts of future events. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements include statements regarding, among other things, (a) our projected sales, profitability, and cash flows, (b) our growth strategies, (c) anticipated trends in our industries, (d) our future financing plans and (e) our anticipated needs for working capital. They are generally identifiable by use of the words “may,” “will,” “should,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plans,” “potential,” “projects,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expects,” “management believes,” “we believe,” “we intend” or the negative of these words or other variations on these words or comparable terminology. These statements may be found under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Description of Business,” as well as in this Form 10-Q generally. In particular, these include statements relating to future actions, prospective products or product approvals, future performance or results of current and anticipated products, sales efforts, expenses, the outcome of contingencies such as legal proceedings, and financial results.

 

Any or all of our forward-looking statements in this report may turn out to be inaccurate. They can be affected by inaccurate assumptions we might make or by known or unknown risks or uncertainties. Consequently, no forward-looking statement can be guaranteed. Actual future results may vary materially as a result of various factors, including, without limitation, the risks outlined under “Risk Factors” detailed in the Company’s Form S-1 registration statement and matters described in this Form 10-Q generally. In light of these risks and uncertainties, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements contained in this filing will in fact occur. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and, except to the extent required by federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as the result of new information, future events, or otherwise. We intend that all forward-looking statements be subject to the safe harbor provisions of the PSLRA.

 

Overview

 

The Company was originally registered as a private limited company in the United Kingdom as MEC FOOD (UK) LTD on December 12, 2011. On May 12, 2014, the Company changed its name to XTRIBE Limited. On April 30, 2016, the Company was registered as a public limited company and changed its name to XTRIBE P.L.C. The Company has developed a free smartphone application which allows the user to sell, buy, swap and rent objects and services utilizing an active geolocation tool which locates all potential customers within any specified geographic target. Transactions can be completed without any intermediary, directly between party and counter-party, without any commissions or third-party payments. Users have the option of customizing the app to best promote commerce. The Company derives revenues by its B2B division, XTRIBE Store. The XTRIBE application is available for Apple and Android devices and can be easily downloaded for free to a user’s mobile device. Once installed, the user establishes a free account and can immediately transact and communicate with other users.

 

To date we have not generated material revenues. Commencing in 2018, we expect to generate revenue streams through the use of our fully developed and operational application by its registered users. The Company is currently only operating in Italy, but plans to expand its operations to the United States and other selected markets in the next 12-24 months.

 

As of March 31, 2018, the Company had $80,696 cash on hand which management believes is sufficient to fund expenses of operation through mid-2018. Management further believes that it needs to raise a minimum of an additional approximately $1,000,000 in the Offering to complete its product roll-out and marketing and support in Italy. Additional proceeds will enable the Company to expand to the United States and other international markets.

 

 

Strategic Outlook

 

We believe that the connectivity between by buyers and sellers, the geolocation attributes, and the multilingual capabilities of our application will provide the source for our success in a currently underutilized market.

 

As our registered user base grows, we intend to hire additional information technology staff to maintain our product offerings and develop new products to increase our market share.

 

We believe that our near-term success will depend particularly on our ability to develop customer awareness and confidence in our application. Since we have limited capital resources, we will need to closely manage our expenses and conserve our cash by continually monitoring any increase in expenses and reducing or eliminating unnecessary expenditures. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties encountered by companies at an early stage of development, particularly given that we operate in new and rapidly evolving markets, that we have limited financial resources, and face an uncertain economic environment. We may not be successful in addressing such risks and difficulties.

 

Results of Operations

 

Comparison of the Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 and 2017

 

The following discussion analyzes our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017. The following information should be considered together with our condensed consolidated financial statements for such periods and the accompanying notes thereto.

 

Net Revenue/Net Loss

 

We have not generated significant revenue since our inception. For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, we have not generated any sales. For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, we had a net loss of $503,936 and $211,830.

 

General and Administrative Expenses

 

General and administrative expenses increased by $250,548 to $312,354 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 from $61,806 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase resulted from increases in consulting fees, distribution costs, management fees, payroll, professional fees and foreign exchange losses. Consulting fees related to the formation and management of XTribe SA. Distribution costs have increased because of the activity on the platform. Management fees relate to the formation of XTribe SA. With growth and the addition of XTRIBE US, the Company has had to add additional management which is included in management fees and payroll expenses. Professional fees have also increase related to XTRIBE US having to report quarterly as well as forming XTRIBE SA and the additional costs of compliance related to to these entities.

 

Sales and Marketing

 

Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2018 were $97,230 as compared to $45,823 for the three months ended March 31, 2017, an increase of $51,407. This is a result of the Company’s expanding its marketing campaign during the three months ended March 31, 2018 to increase market awareness.

 

Research and Development

 

Research and development expenses were $94,352 and $104,201 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, a decrease of $9,849. The decrease is related to less software development enhancements required during the three months ended March 31, 2018.

 

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of May 21, 2018 we had cash on hand of approximately $70,000.

 

Net cash used in operating activities increased by $306,035 to $569,261 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to $263,226 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase resulted primarily from the net loss, decreases in accounts payable and accrued expenses.

 

Net cash provided used in investing activities increased by $2,789 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase resulted from the acquisition of equipment for XTRIBE US.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities increased by $612,849 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase resulted from proceeds from loans from shareholders and others and sales of ordinary shares – Series B.

 

As we have not realized significant revenues since our inception, we have financed our operations through private offerings of debt and equity securities. We do not currently maintain a line of credit or term loan with any commercial bank or other financial institution.

 

Since our inception, we have focused on developing and implementing our business plan. We believe that our existing cash resources will not be sufficient to sustain our operations during the next twelve months. We currently need to generate sufficient revenues to support our cost structure to enable us to pay ongoing costs and expenses as they are incurred, finance the development of our platform, and execute the business plan. If we cannot generate sufficient revenue to fund our business plan, we intend to seek to raise such financing through the sale of debt and/or equity securities. The issuance of additional equity would result in dilution to existing shareholders. If we are unable to obtain additional funds when they are needed or if such funds cannot be obtained on terms acceptable to us, we will be unable to execute upon the business plan or pay costs and expenses as they are incurred, which would have a material, adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Even if we are successful in generating sufficient revenue or in raising sufficient capital in order to complete the platform, our ability to continue in business as a viable going concern can only be achieved when our revenues reach a level that sustains our business operations. There can be no assurance that we will raise sufficient proceeds, or any proceeds, for us to implement fully our proposed business plan. Moreover there can be no assurance we will generate revenues sufficient to fund our operations. In either such situation, we may not be able to continue our operations and our business might fail.

 

The foregoing forward-looking information was prepared by us in good faith based upon assumptions that we believe to be reasonable. No assurance can be given, however, regarding the attainability of the projections or the reliability of the assumptions on which they are based. The projections are subject to the uncertainties inherent in any attempt to predict the results of our operations, especially where new products and services are involved. Certain of the assumptions used will inevitably not materialize and unanticipated events will occur. Actual results of operations are, therefore, likely to vary from the projections and such variations may be material and adverse to us. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that such results will be achieved. Moreover due to changes in technology, new product announcements, competitive pressures, system design and/or other specifications we may be required to change the current plans.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of March 31, 2018, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Not applicable.

 

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Securities Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e)) as of the end of the quarterly period covered by this report, have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective to reasonably ensure that material information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The principal basis for this conclusion is the lack of segregation of duties within our financial function and the lack of an operating Audit Committee.

 

(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal period to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
