ZENERGY BRANDS, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2018

 

1. Organization – Nature of Operations

 

Zenergy Brands, Inc. (the “Company”, (“Zenergy”) or (“ZNGY”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on July 28, 1999. As part of our rebranding and marketing efforts focused on our energy and smart controls business, our board of directors unanimously approved on October 18, 2017 the change of our corporate name to Zenergy Brands, Inc. from The Chron Organization, Inc. (“CHRO”)

 

Zenergy Brands, Inc. a business-to-business company, whose business platform is a combined offering of energy services and smart controls. Our business model is based upon the belief that these two aspects, combined with an ever-increasing commercial demand for more sustainable business practices will continue to be burgeoning trends. Historically, services such as electricity and natural gas have been provided by monopoly based companies; these legacy entities are in the business of selling commodity and related services and naturally, selling as much of these (kilo-watt-hours of electricity and thermal units of natural gas) as possible. However, the growing demand from commercial and municipal entities for responsible energy, more control and transparency, and overall sustainability, have proven to be at odds with the mission of these legacy entities. Zenergy offers a unique value proposition to commercial, industrial, and municipal customers whereby we offer a means to reduce their utility expenses anywhere from 20% up to 60% through energy-efficient and smart control products and services.

 

On April 3, 2018, Zenergy Power & Gas, Inc. (“ZP&G”), a Texas corporation formerly known as Zen Energy Inc., and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Zenergy Brands, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”) consummated the purchase of 87.37% of the issued and outstanding equity interests (the “Purchased Interests”) of Enertrade Electric, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“Enertrade”), from Luccirelli & Gomez, LLC (“L&G”) and TCN Holdings, LLC (“TCN” and together with L&G, collectively, the “Sellers”) , pursuant to the terms and conditions of that certain Equity Interest Purchase Agreement, dated January 20, 2017, by and among ZP&G, Enertrade, the Sellers, and Genaro Gomez Castanares and Donnie Goodwin (the “Principals”), the principals of the Sellers (as amended by that certain First Amendment to Equity Interest Purchase Agreement dated March 20, 2017 and as further amended by that certain Second Amendment to Equity Interest Purchase Agreement dated October 31, 2017, collectively, the “Purchase Agreement”). ZP&G, Enertrade, the Sellers and the Principals are referred to collectively as the “Parties”.

 

The aggregate consideration paid by ZP&G for the Purchased Interests was $1,650,000 as adjusted for Enertrade’s closing date working capital, indebtedness and unpaid transaction costs, and consisted of (i) cash consideration of $500,000 which was paid at the closing and (ii) the delivery at the closing of an interest free promissory note in favor of the Sellers (the “Note”) with an original principal amount of $1,150,000.

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Principals of Consolidation – The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, and its subsidiaries Zen Technologies, Inc. and Zen Power & Gas, Inc., All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

 

Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of sales and expenses during the reporting periods. Key estimates in the accompanying financial statements include, among others, revenue recognition, allowances for doubtful accounts, valuation of long-lived assets, and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances.

 

The financial statements are presented on the basis of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. See further information in Note 3. Going Concern.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents – The Company considers all highly-liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash equivalents.

 

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts - The determination of collectability of the Company’s accounts receivable requires management to make judgments and estimates in order to determine the appropriate amount of allowance needed for doubtful accounts. The Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts is estimated to cover the risk of loss related to accounts receivable. This allowance is maintained at a level that management considers appropriate based on historical trends of write-offs, recoveries and credit losses, aging of accounts, and projected economic and market conditions. Different assumptions or changes in the economic circumstances could result in changes to the allowance. Accounts deemed uncollectible are applied against the allowance for doubtful accounts. At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the allowance for doubtful accounts totals $26,000.

The estimated fair value of accounts receivable, financed receivables, prepaid and other current assets, and accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate the carrying amounts due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments. The carrying value of short- and long-term debt also approximates fair value since these instruments bear market rates of interest. None of these instruments are held for trading purposes.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Stock – Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is determined using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents. In periods when losses are reported, the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. The dilutive shares outstanding at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 are as follows:

 

    June 30, 2018     December 31, 2017  
             
Related party convertible promissory notes     68,333,333       56,333,333  
Related Party Warrants     32,166,767       32,166,667

Warrants     22,161,000       19,161,000  
Diluted shares outstanding     1,435,001,964       407,521,000  

 

Income Taxes – The Company estimates its current tax position together with its future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items, such as depreciation and other reserves for tax and accounting purposes. These temporary differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Management must then assess the likelihood that its deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income, prior year carryback, or future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences. To the extent management believes that recovery is unlikely, management establishes a valuation allowance against these deferred tax assets. Significant judgment is required in determining the Company’s provision for income taxes, its deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any valuation allowance recorded against its deferred tax assets. At June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company has recorded a tax liability of $6,100 at June 30, 2018 against its net deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty these assets will be used in the future. A charge in the amount of $102 was recorded in interest expense and offset to the deferred tax liability at June 30, 2018.

 

Sales-type Leasing and Related Revenue Recognition - The Company installs and leases energy equipment to its customer under a Managed Energy Services Agreement (“MESA”). The Company typically transfers ownership of the equipment to its customers at the end of the lease through a purchase option. The investment in these projects is recorded as an investment on sales-type leases in accordance with Financial Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842, “Leases”, and its various amendments and interpretations. The Company finances energy efficiency projects. The sales and cost of sales are recognized upon completion of the installation of equipment. The investment in sales-type leases consists of the sum of the minimum lease payments receivable less unearned interest income and estimated executory cost. Minimum lease payments are part of the lease agreement between the Company (as the lessor) and the customer (as the lessee). The discount rate implicit in the lease is used to calculate the present value of minimum lease payments. The minimum lease payment consists of the gross lease payments net of executory costs, if any. While revenue is recognized at the project completion date, the cash flow from the sales-type lease occurs over the course of the lease, which results in interest income and reduction of receivables. Revenue is recognized net of sales tax.

 

Financing Receivables – Finance receivables are receivables that the Company has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity, or receivables associated with an on-balance sheet securitization classified as secured financing. The financing receivables are reported at the principal amount outstanding, net of deferred interest and offset to deferred revenue. The Company manages the economic risks exposures, including credit risk, by adjusting underwriting standards and risk limits, augmenting the servicing and collection activities. The deferred revenue is amortized over the contractual life of the related finance receivable in accordance with FASB ASC 842. Finance receivables are classified as either short-term or long-term assets.

 

Software Development Costs – The Company capitalizes certain expenditures to the development of its software application. Capitalization begins when technological feasibility is established. Capitalized costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the developed product.

 

Beneficial Conversion Feature - The Company accounts for convertible notes payable in accordance with the guidelines established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options, Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 98-5, Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratios, and EITF 00-27, Application of Issue No 98-5 To Certain Convertible Instruments. The Beneficial Conversion Feature (“BCF”) of a convertible note is normally characterized as the convertible portion or feature of certain notes payable that provide a rate of conversion that is below market value or in-the-money when issued. The Company records a BCF related to the issuance of a convertible note when issued and records the estimated fair value of any warrants issued with those convertible notes. Beneficial conversion features that are contingent upon the occurrence of a future event are recorded when the contingency is resolved.

 

The BCF of a convertible note is measured by allocating a portion of the note’s proceeds to the warrants, if applicable, and as a discount on the carrying amount of the convertible note equal to the intrinsic value of the conversion feature, both of which are credited to additional paid-in-capital. The value of the proceeds received from a convertible note is then allocated between the conversion features and warrants and the debt on an allocated fair value basis. The allocated fair value is recorded in the financial statements as a debt discount (premium) from the face amount of the note and such discount is amortized over the expected term of the convertible note (or to the conversion date of the note, if sooner) and is charged to interest expense.

Classification - The Company had classified the beneficial conversion feature of the convertible notes as mezzanine equity on the consolidated balance sheets as the stock was contingently redeemable. Upon the occurrence of certain change in control events that are outside the Company’s control, including liquidation, sale or transfer of the Company, holders of the convertible preferred stock could cause redemption for cash. Pursuant to ASC 480-10-S99-3A, the SEC finds that a BCF should be separated from a convertible instrument and recorded in additional paid-in capital. However, Company’s filing with the SEC should present BCF as mezzanine equity in order to distinguish them from permanent equity. The balance sheet reflects the redeemable equity instruments as mezzanine equity separate from permanent equity.

 

New Pronouncements

 

Revenue from contracts with customers - In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”, which superseded previous revenue recognition guidance. ASU No. 2014-09 and its amendments were included in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. ASC 606 requires that a company recognize revenue at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods or services to a customer. The Company adopted ASC 606 effective January 1, 2018, using the modified retrospective approach, with no impact to the opening retained earnings. Results for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018 are presented under ASC 606, while prior periods are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with the prior accounting guidance under ASC 605 “Revenue Recognition”.

 

3. Going Concern

 

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (“ASU 2014-15”). This update is intended to define management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an organization’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date of issuance of the entity’s financial statements and to provide related footnote disclosures in certain circumstances. This guidance is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2016 and for interim periods thereafter. The Company adopted ASU 2014-15 as of the required effective date of December 31, 2016. The Company performed a working capital analysis as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 to determine whether or not this disclosure was appropriate and included the additional disclosure.

 

When evaluating the Company’s ability to meet its obligations, Management considered the current financial condition, including liquidity sources at the date that the financial statements were issued, the Company’s conditional and unconditional obligations due or anticipated within one year after the date that the financial statements were issued, funds necessary to maintain the Company’s operations considering its current financial condition, and other conditions and events, when considered in conjunction with the items pervious mentioned, that may adversely affect its ability to meet its obligations. The Company has concluded that there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and year ended December 31, 2017.

 

Based on an analysis by the Company under ASU 2014-15, the Company has concluded that there is substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date of these financial statements. Consequently, the Company’s financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company reported a net loss of ($2,488,867) and ($1,331,952) for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and an accumulated deficit of ($7,455,083) at June 30, 2018. At June 30, 2018 and 2017 the Company had a working capital deficit of ($3,913,931) and ($2,154,380), respectively, and negative cash flow from continuing operating activity of ($2,092,905) and ($917,824), respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2018, and 2017.

 

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern may be dependent on the success of management’s plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

During the 2018 fiscal year, the Company intends to continue its efforts to raise funds to support its efforts through the sale of equity and/or debt securities.

 

To the extent the Company’s operations are not sufficient to fund the Company’s capital requirements, the Company may attempt to enter into a revolving loan agreement with financial institutions or attempt to raise capital through the sale of additional capital stock or through the issuance of debt. At the present time, the Company does not have a revolving loan agreement with any financial institution.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation

 

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This report contains forward-looking statements. The Securities and Exchange Commission encourages companies to disclose forward-looking information so that investors can better understand a company’s future prospects and make informed investment decisions. This report and other written and oral statements that we make from time to time contain such forward-looking statements that set out anticipated results based on management’s plans and assumptions regarding future events or performance. We have tried, wherever possible, to identify such statements by using words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “will” and similar expressions in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial performance. In particular, these include statements relating to future actions, future performance or results of current and anticipated sales efforts, expenses, the outcome of contingencies, such as legal proceedings, and financial results.

 

We caution that the factors described herein and other factors could cause our actual results of operations and financial condition to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements we make and that investors should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of such factors. Further, we cannot assess the impact of each such factor on our results of operations or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

 

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the related notes that appear elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

 

Introduction

 

The following discussion and analysis was prepared to supplement information contained in the accompanying financial statements and is intended to provide certain details regarding the Company’s financial condition as of June 30, 2018, and the results of operations for the three months, and six months ended June 30,, 2018. It should be read in conjunction with the unaudited financial statements and notes thereto contained in this report as well as the audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 included in the Company’s Form 10, filed with the SEC.

 

Business Overview

 

The following is a summary of some of the information contained in this document. Unless the context requires otherwise, references in this document to “our Company,” “us,” “we,” “our,” “Zenergy,” or the “Company” are to Zenergy Brands, Inc.

 

We are a business-to-business company, whose business platform is a combined offering of energy services and smart controls. Our business model is based upon the belief that these two aspects, combined with an ever-increasing commercial demand for more sustainable business practices will continue to be burgeoning trends. Historically, services such as electricity and natural gas have been provided by monopoly based companies; these legacy entities are in the business of selling commodity and related services and naturally, selling as much of these (kilo-watt-hours of electricity and thermal units of natural gas) as possible. In some cases, it has been this way for nearly a century. However, the growing demand from commercial and municipal entities for responsible energy, more control and transparency, and overall sustainability, have proven to be at odds with the mission of these legacy entities. Zenergy offers a unique value proposition to commercial, industrial, and municipal customers whereby we offer a means to reduce their utility expenses anywhere from 20% up to 60% through energy-efficient and smart control products and services.

 

26
 

 

Toward making our claim in the marketplace, we have built a service offering that we have deemed “Energy as a Service” and/or “Sustainability as a Service”. We also have plans to complement this offering by launching a “Retail Energy Platform” that, when combined, are expected to position us to become a provider of a unique suite of energy usage and management products and services to commercial, industrial, and municipal end-use customers which we refer to as “target customers”. Currently, we (i) provide energy brokerage and procurement services, (ii) sell commercial energy conservation equipment, load factor improvement technologies, HVAC & Refrigeration based technologies, LED lighting and lighting controls, and (iii) plan to sell commercial energy utility services following the completion of our planned acquisition of Enertrade Electric, LLC (“Enertrade”), a Texas based Retail Electric Provider as further discussed below.

 

The foundation of our unique selling proposition is based on our Zero Cost Program. This is a turnkey solution that enables our target customers to upgrade their older, inefficient customer premise equipment and assets, allowing for installation of energy-efficient retrofits such as HVAC and refrigeration motor controllers, load factor improvement technologies, building-envelope-based technologies, weatherization-based technologies, smart controls, and LED lighting, all at no up-front cost to them. The Zero Cost Program will be facilitated through an industry standard agreement referred to as a Managed Energy Services Agreement (“MESA”). Under the MESA, Zenergy will be obligated to develop, arrange financing for, install and maintain all energy efficiency measures and equipment installed by Zenergy. Zenergy will retain ownership of all installed equipment. The minimum term of the MESA is expected to be five years with an expected average of seven years. Under the terms of the MESA, our customers will be obligated to pay us a portion of their savings in utility costs following the installation of our equipment; these are referred to as “Service Payments”. Service Payments are expected to be fixed payments made on a monthly basis over the term of the agreement from the customer to Zenergy and these payments are expected to scale down over the term of the MESA, allowing the customer to reap more and more of the dollar savings from the respective utility company each year.

 

Effectuating a successful MESA will require us to implement credit review and standard underwriting procedures. This process includes, but is not limited to, the following: standard credit screening provided by credit reporting agencies (i.e. Experian), business profile reports from Dun & Bradstreet, review of trade credit and references, confirmation that client has been in operation for greater than 10 years, and our proprietary review and assessment of historical accounting records and industry landscape. In order for Zenergy to effectively market, sell, and implement MESAs, Zenergy must utilize third-party financing entities to provide project and strategic financing toward fulfilling its working capital requirements to acquire and install the equipment required under the MESA. For this reason, we engaged in discussions with advisors and investment banks for the purpose of procuring a long-term and scalable financing solution for this aspect of our business.

 

We do not know whether we will be able to successfully implement our business strategy or whether our business strategy will ultimately be successful. Our growth strategy is largely dependent on our ability to secure project financing for the Zero Cost contracts currently in our pipeline and develop synergies within our business platform.

 

On April 3, 2018, Zenergy Power & Gas, Inc. (“ZP&G”), a Texas corporation formerly known as Zen Energy Inc., and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Zenergy Brands, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”) consummated the purchase of 87.37% of the issued and outstanding equity interests (the “Purchased Interests”) of Enertrade Electric, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“Enertrade”), from Luccirelli & Gomez, LLC (“L&G”) and TCN Holdings, LLC (“TCN” and together with L&G, collectively, the “Sellers”) , pursuant to the terms and conditions of that certain Equity Interest Purchase Agreement, dated January 20, 2017, by and among ZP&G, Enertrade, the Sellers, and Genaro Gomez Castanares and Donnie Goodwin (the “Principals”), the principals of the Sellers (as amended by that certain First Amendment to Equity Interest Purchase Agreement dated March 20, 2017 and as further amended by that certain Second Amendment to Equity Interest Purchase Agreement dated October 31, 2017, collectively, the “Purchase Agreement”). ZP&G, Enertrade, the Sellers and the Principals are referred to collectively as the “Parties”.

 

The aggregate consideration paid by ZP&G for the Purchased Interests was $1,650,000 as adjusted for Enertrade’s closing date working capital, indebtedness and unpaid transaction costs, and consisted of (i) cash consideration of $500,000 which was paid at the closing and (ii) the delivery at the closing of an interest free promissory note in favor of the Sellers (the “Note”) with an original principal amount of $1,150,000.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2017

 

The following comparative analysis on results of operations was based primarily on the comparative financial statements, footnotes and related information for the periods identified below and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes to those financial statements that are included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. For comparative purposes, we are comparing the six months ended June 30, 2018, to the six months ended June 30, 2017.

 

Revenue. Total revenue was $766,213 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to $10,126 for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The increase is primarily a result of the Company’s launch of its Managed Energy Services (zero cost projects). The zero cost projects made up approx. $415,000 of revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2018, and the remainder was primarily from the retail electricity provider acquisition were approximately $318,000 in revenues. The remainder revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2017 were primary home automation subscription revenue.

 

Cost of goods sold and Gross Profit (loss). Our cost of goods sold for the six months ended June 30, 2018 of $563,430 compared to $22,120 for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The increase is a result of increases in our sales from zero cost projects as well as from our Retail Electric Provider Company. Our gross profit (loss) for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $202,783 compared to ($11,994) for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The increases are a result of increases in our sales from both the zero cost projects and the electric business. The gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2018 for the zero cost projects was approximately $142,000, and the electricity business had a gross profit of approximately $38,000.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses. Total selling, general and administrative expenses were $1,910,845 and $1,149,355 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The increase is primarily attributable to increases in selling, general and administrative expenses associated with the development of our MESA product and service offering and ramping up our sales efforts, consisting primarily of increases in contractor and consulting expense of $414,000, rent of $52,000. In addition to these increases the Company saw an increase in costs associated to the electricity business. The increase in costs for Zenergy Power & Gas was approximately $277,000. These costs were attributed to acquiring Enertrade Electric, LLC, as well as all the operating expenses from April through June 30, 2018 that were non-existent in the six months ended June 30, 2017.

The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in operating expenses, other expenses cost of goods sold, partially offset by an increase in revenues. The increase in net losses is attributed to approximately $1,037,000 in interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2018 when compared to 2017.

 

Three Months Ended June 30, 2018 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2017

 

The following comparative analysis on results of operations was based primarily on the comparative financial statements, footnotes and related information for the periods identified below and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes to those financial statements that are included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q. For comparative purposes, we are comparing the three months ended June 30, 2018, to the three months ended June 30, 2017

 

Revenue. Total revenue was $464,404 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 compared to $5,294 for the three months ended June 30, 2017.

The increase in net losses is attributed to approximately $540,000 in interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2018 when compared to 2017.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources. Liquidity is the ability of an enterprise to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet its needs for cash requirements. We had a working capital deficit of ($3,913,931) as of June 30, 2018 compared to a working capital deficit of ($2,154,380) as of December 31, 2017 primarily as a result of an increase in borrowings, subscription liabilities, accounts payables and accrued payroll. Working capital consisted of total current assets of $588,473 offset by current liabilities of $4,502,404 as of June 30, 2018 and total current assets of $83,990 offset by current liabilities of $2,238,370 as of December 31, 2017.

 

Net cash flow used in operating activities was ($2,092,905) for the six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to net cash flows provided in operating activities of ($917,824) for the six months ended June 30, 2017. Net cash flow used in investing activities was ($1,094,237) for the six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to ($50,096) for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

 

Our primary source of liquidity has been proceeds from the issuance of debt securities and equity securities. Net cash provided by financing activities was ($3,266,000) for the six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to ($1,017,650) for the six months ended June 30, 2017. During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we received $79,500 from the sale of common stock, $1,214,000 from proceeds from convertible promissory notes, $30,000 from proceeds for a stock subscription, and $100,000 from the sale of preferred stock, and $200,000 from the sale of stock in a subsidiary company.

 

Cash Requirements

 

Our management does not believe that our current capital resources will be adequate to continue operating our company and maintaining our business strategy for more than 12 months. Accordingly, we will have to raise additional capital in the near future to meet our working capital requirements. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be available to us when needed or, if available, that it can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. If we are not able to obtain the additional financing on a timely basis, if and when it is needed, we will be forced to scale down or perhaps even cease the operation of our business. We are also obligated to pay interest and principal under outstanding promissory notes. See Footnote 5 of our unaudited financial statement for six months ended June 30, 2018.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying audited financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2018 have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company reports a net loss of ($2,488,867) for the six months ended June 30, 2018, and ($1,331,952) loss for the six months ended June 30, 20187 and an accumulated deficit of ($7,455,083) as of June 30, 2018.

 

The Company had a working capital deficit of ($3,913,931) and negative cash flow from continuing operating activity of ($2,092,905) at June 30, 2018. The Company’s revenue from operations is not sufficient to meet its working capital needs and will be dependent on funds raised to satisfy its ongoing capital requirements for at least the next twelve months. The Company will require additional financing in order to execute its operating plan and continue as a going concern. The Company cannot predict whether this additional financing will be in the form of equity or debt, or be in another form. The Company may not be able to obtain the necessary additional capital on a timely basis, on acceptable terms, or at all. In any of these events, the Company may be unable to implement its current plans for expansion or respond to competitive pressures, any of these circumstances would have a material adverse effect on its business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

Critical Accounting Policies

 

We have identified the following policies below as critical to its business and results of operations. Our reported results are impacted by the application of the following accounting policies, certain of which require management to make subjective or complex judgments. These judgments involve making estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may significantly impact quarterly or annual results of operations. For all of these policies, management cautions that future events rarely develop exactly as expected, and the best estimates routinely require adjustment. Specific risks associated with these critical accounting policies are described in the following paragraphs.

 

Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of sales and expenses during the reporting periods. Key estimates in the accompanying financial statements include, among others, revenue recognition, allowances for doubtful accounts, valuation of long-lived assets, and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances.

 

The financial statements are presented on the basis of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Other than continued current involvement, some transactions prior to December 31, 2015 have been reclassified as discontinued operations in the financial statements included in this Registration Statement.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents – The Company considers all highly-liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash equivalents. Cash on-hand at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017were $106,707 and $27,849, respectively.

 

Sales-type Leasing and Related Revenue Recognition - The Company installs and leases energy equipment to its customer under a Managed Energy Services Agreement “(MESA”). The Company typically transfers ownership of the equipment to its customers at the end of the lease. The investment in these projects is recorded as an investment on sales-type leases in accordance with Financial Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842, “Leases”, and its various amendments and interpretations. The Company finances energy efficiency projects. The sales and cost of sales are recognized upon completion of the installation of equipment. The investment in sales-type leases consists of the sum of the minimum lease payments receivable less unearned interest income ad estimated executory cost. Minimum lease payments are part of the lease agreement between the Company (as the lessor) and the customer (as the lessee). The discount rate implicit in the lease is used to calculate the present value of minimum lease payments. The minimum lease payment consists of the gross lease payments net of executory costs, if any. Unearned interest income is amortized to income over the lease term to produce a constant periodic rate of return on net investment in the lease. While revenue is recognized at the project completion date, the cash flow from the sales-type lease occurs over the course of the lease, which results in interest income and reduction of receivables. Revenue is recognized net of sales tax.

 

31
 

 

Software Development Costs – The Company capitalizes certain expenditures to the development of its software application. Capitalization begins when technological feasibility is established. Capitalized costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the developed product.

 

Beneficial Conversion Feature - The Company accounts for convertible notes payable in accordance with the guidelines established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options, Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) 98-5, Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratios, and EITF 00-27, Application of Issue No 98-5 To Certain Convertible Instruments. The Beneficial Conversion Feature (“BCF”) of a convertible note is normally characterized as the convertible portion or feature of certain notes payable that provide a rate of conversion that is below market value or in-the-money when issued. The Company records a BCF related to the issuance of a convertible note when issued and records the estimated fair value of any warrants issued with those convertible notes. Beneficial conversion features that are contingent upon the occurrence of a future event are recorded when the contingency is resolved.

 

The BCF of a convertible note is measured by allocating a portion of the note’s proceeds to the warrants, if applicable, and as a discount on the carrying amount of the convertible note equal to the intrinsic value of the conversion feature, both of which are credited to additional paid-in-capital. The value of the proceeds received from a convertible note is then allocated between the conversion features and warrants and the debt on an allocated fair value basis. The allocated fair value is recorded in the financial statements as a debt discount (premium) from the face amount of the note and such discount is amortized over the expected term of the convertible note (or to the conversion date of the note, if sooner) and is charged to interest expense.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

We implemented all new accounting standards that are in effect and that may impact its consolidated financial statements. We do not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on the consolidated financial position or results of operation.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of June 30, 2018, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors. The term “off-balance sheet arrangement” generally means any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement to which an entity unconsolidated with us is a party, under which we have any obligation arising under a guarantee contract, derivative instrument or variable interest or a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to such entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support for such assets.

 

Plan of Operation and Funding

 

During the next twelve months, we anticipate that our principal sources of liquidity will consist of any, or all, of the following: 1) proceeds from potential equity financing, 2) revenue generated from our operations, and 3) additional debt borrowings. While we are presently generating revenue and we anticipate our revenue will continue to increase.

 

On a long-term basis, our ability to ultimately achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow is dependent upon our ability to successfully continue to develop our products and our ability to generate revenues.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

 

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

The Company’s management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) under the 1934 Act) pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the 1934 Act as of June 30, 2018. The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable, not absolute assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports it files or submits under the 1934 Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis and that such information is communicated to management and the Company’s board of directors to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Based on this evaluation, it has been concluded that the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective as of June 30, 2018 since the following material weaknesses exist:

 

  Since inception our chief executive officer also functions as our chief financial officer. As a result, our officers may not be able to identify errors and irregularities in the financial statements and reports.
     
  We were unable to maintain full segregation of duties within our financial operations due to our reliance on limited personnel in the finance function. While this control deficiency did not result in any material adjustments to our financial statements, it could have resulted in a material misstatement that might have been prevented or detected by a segregation of duties.

 

  Documentation of all proper accounting procedures is not yet complete.

 

To the extent reasonably possible given our limited resources, as financial resources become available we intend to take measures to cure the aforementioned weaknesses, including, but not limited to, the following:

 

  Increasing the capacity of our qualified financial personnel to ensure that accounting policies and procedures are consistent across the organization and that we have adequate control over financial statement disclosures.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

 

We are currently not involved in any litigation that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. There is no action, suite, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of our company or any of our subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting our company, our common stock, any of our subsidiaries or of our companies or our subsidiaries’ officers or directors in their capacities as such, in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect. We anticipate that we (including current and any future subsidiaries) will from time to time become subject to claims and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. It is not feasible to predict the outcome of any such proceedings and we cannot assure that their ultimate disposition will not have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows or results of operations.
