RISK FACTORS

 

You should carefully consider the risks described below together with all of the other information included in this prospectus before making an investment decision with regard to our securities. We believe the following discussion identifies the most significant risks and uncertainties that could adversely affect our business. If any of the following risks were actually to occur, our business, results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected. Additional risks not currently known to us, or that we currently deem to be immaterial, could also materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition in future periods.

 

Risks Related to Our Business

 

We are a development stage company with a history of operating losses and expect to continue to realize losses in the near future.

 

Currently our operations are producing very little revenue, and we currently rely on investments by third parties to fund our business. Even when we begin to generate revenues from operations, we may not become profitable or be able to sustain profitability.

 

We have reported net losses of $7,114,769 from the date of inception through June 30, 2018. We have not realized adequate revenue in order to support our operations. We expect to continue to incur net losses and negative cash flow from operations for the near term. To date, we have had only limited operating revenues. There can be no assurance that we will achieve material revenues in the future. Should we achieve a level of revenues that make us profitable, there is no assurance that we can maintain or increase profitability levels in the future.

 

There is substantial doubt as to whether we will continue operations. If we discontinue operations, you could lose your investment.

 

The following factors raise substantial doubt regarding the ability of our business to continue as a going concern: (i) the losses we incurred since our inception; (ii) our lack of significant operating revenues since inception through the date of this prospectus; and (iii) our dependence on the sale of equity or debt securities to continue in operation. We therefore expect to incur significant losses in the foreseeable future. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the uncertainty about our ability to continue our business. If we are unable to obtain additional financing from outside sources and eventually produce enough revenues, we may be forced to curtail or cease our operations. If this happens, you could lose all or part of your investment.

 

Our lack of any profitable operating history makes it difficult for us to evaluate our future business prospects and make decisions based on those estimates of our future performance.

 

We do not have any substantial operating history, which makes it impossible to evaluate our business based on historical operations. Our business carries both known and unknown risks. Therefore, our past results may not be indicative of future results. Although this is true for any business, it is particularly true for us because of our lacking any profitable operating history.

 

We might not succeed in our strategies for acquisitions and dispositions.

 

From time to time, we may attempt to acquire or invest in additional brands or businesses. We expect to continue to seek acquisition and investment opportunities that we believe will increase long-term shareholder value, but we may not be able to find and purchase brands or businesses at acceptable prices and terms. Acquisitions involve risks and uncertainties, including potential difficulties integrating acquired brands and personnel; the possible loss of key customers or employees most knowledgeable about the acquired business; implementing and maintaining consistent U.S. public company standards, controls, procedures, policies, and information systems; exposure to unknown liabilities; business disruption; and management distraction. Acquisitions, investments, or joint ventures could also lead us to incur additional debt and related interest expenses, issue additional shares, and become exposed to contingent liabilities, as well as lead to dilution in our earnings per share and reduction in our return on average invested capital. We could incur future restructuring charges or record impairment losses on the value of goodwill or other intangible assets resulting from previous acquisitions, which may also negatively affect our financial results.

 

 

 

We also evaluate from time to time the potential disposition of assets or businesses that may no longer meet our growth, return, or strategic objectives. In selling assets or businesses, we may not get prices or terms as favourable as we anticipated. We could also encounter difficulty in finding buyers on acceptable terms in a timely manner, which could delay our accomplishment of strategic objectives. Expected cost savings from reduced overhead relating to the sold assets may not materialize, and the overhead reductions could temporarily disrupt our other business operations. Any of these outcomes could negatively affect our financial performance.

 

The forward-looking estimates presented in this prospectus may differ from our actual results.

 

The forward-looking estimates and production dates we have included in this prospectus are based upon a number of assumptions and on information that we believe is reliable as of today. However, these forward-looking estimates and assumptions are inherently subject to significant business and economic uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control. These forward-looking estimates are necessarily speculative in nature, and you should expect that some or all of the assumptions will not materialize. Actual results will vary from the forward- looking estimates and the variations will likely be material and are likely to increase over time. Consequently, the inclusion of these forward- looking estimates in this prospectus should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that the forward-looking estimates will actually be achieved. Moreover, we do not intend to update or otherwise revise these forward-looking estimates to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this prospectus to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. You, as a holder of the shares, are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking estimates.

 

We may not be able to finance the growth of our business, which we expect will require significant amounts of capital, including the acquisition of equipment, the development and construction of our distribution and processing facilities.

 

From time to time, we may attempt to acquire or invest in additional brands or businesses. We expect to continue to seek acquisition and investment opportunities that we believe will increase long-term shareholder value, but we may not be able to find and purchase brands or businesses at acceptable prices and terms. Acquisitions involve risks and uncertainties, including potential difficulties integrating acquired brands and personnel; the possible loss of key customers or employees most knowledgeable about the acquired business; implementing and maintaining consistent U.S. public company standards, controls, procedures, policies, and information systems; exposure to unknown liabilities; business disruption; and management distraction. Acquisitions, investments, or joint ventures could also lead us to incur additional debt and related interest expenses, issue additional shares, and become exposed to contingent liabilities, as well as lead to dilution in our earnings per share and reduction in our return on average invested capital. We could incur future restructuring charges or record impairment losses on the value of goodwill or other intangible assets resulting from previous acquisitions, which may also negatively affect our financial results.

 

We also evaluate from time to time the potential disposition of assets or businesses that may no longer meet our growth, return, or strategic objectives. In selling assets or businesses, we may not get prices or terms as favorable as we anticipated. We could also encounter difficulty in finding buyers on acceptable terms in a timely manner, which could delay our accomplishment of strategic objectives. Expected cost savings from reduced overhead relating to the sold assets may not materialize, and the overhead reductions could temporarily disrupt our other business operations. Any of these outcomes could negatively affect our financial performance.

 

Our inability to control the inherent risks of acquiring and integrating businesses in the future could adversely affect our operations.

 

Our management believes acquisitions could potentially be a key element of our business strategy in the future. We may be required to incur substantial indebtedness to finance future acquisitions and also may issue equity securities in connection with such acquisitions. We may not be able to secure additional capital to fund acquisitions. If we are able to obtain financing, such additional debt service requirements may impose a significant burden on our results of operations and financial condition. The issuance of additional equity securities could result in significant dilution to stockholders. Acquisitions may not perform as expected when the acquisition was made and may be dilutive to our overall operating results. Additional risks we expect to face include:

 

 

 

●     retaining and attracting key employees;

●     retaining and attracting new customers;

●     increased administrative burden following acquisitions;

●     assessing and maintaining an effective internal control environment over an acquired business in order to comply with public reporting requirements;

●     developing and integrating our sales and marketing capabilities;

●     managing our growth effectively;

●     integrating operations following acquisitions;

●     operating a new line of business; and increased logistical problems common to larger, more expansive operations. If we fail to manage these risks successfully, our business could be harmed.

 

We may have difficulty managing growth in our business, which could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

 

Our growth, in accordance with our business plan, has placed a significant strain on our financial, technical, operational and management resources. As we expand our activities through both organic growth and possible acquisitions, there will be additional demands on our financial, technical, operational and management resources. The failure to continue to upgrade our technical, administrative, operating and financial control systems or the occurrences of unexpected expansion difficulties, including the failure to recruit and retain experienced managers and other professionals in the alcoholic beverage industry, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and our ability to timely execute our business plan.

 

The following factors could also present difficulties for us:

 

●     lack of sufficient executive-level accounting and administrative personnel;

●     increased burden on existing personnel;

●     long lead times associated with acquiring additional equipment, including potential delays; and

●     ability to maintain the level of focused service attention to our customers.

 

The failure to adequately manage these factors could also have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operation.

 

One of our stockholders has the ability to significantly influence any matters to be decided by the stockholders, which may prevent or delay a change in control of our company.

 

Alonzo Pierce, our chairman and president currently owns 100% of our Series E preferred stock. As holder of the Series E preferred stock Mr. Pierce is entitled, voting separately as a single class, to vote double the number of all other voting share resulting in 2/3rds of all votes. As a result, it could exert considerable influence over the outcome of any corporate matter submitted to our stockholders for approval, including the election of directors and any transaction that might cause a change in control, such as a merger or acquisition. Any stockholders in favor of a matter that is opposed by this stockholder cannot overrule the vote of Mr. Pierce.

 

Alonzo Pierce is our sole executive officer with experience in our alcoholic beverage business and the loss of Mr. Pierce could adversely affect our business.

 

Since Mr. Pierce is currently our sole executive officer with experience in our business, if he were to die, become disabled, or leave our company, we would be forced to retain individuals to replace him. There is no assurance that we can find suitable persons to replace him if that becomes necessary. We have no “key man” life insurance at this time.

 

We may be subject to shareholder litigation, thereby diverting our resources that may have a material effect on our profitability and results of operations.

 

As discussed in the following risk factors, the market for our common shares is characterized by significant price volatility when compared to seasoned issuers, and we expect that our share price will continue to be more volatile than a seasoned issuer for the indefinite future. In the past, plaintiffs have often initiated securities class action litigation against a company following periods of volatility in the market price of its securities. We may become the target of similar litigation. Securities litigation will result in substantial costs and liabilities and will divert management’s attention and resources.

 

 

 

Provisions in our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and Amended and Restated By-laws and of Nevada law may prevent or delay an acquisition of International Spirits, which could decrease the trading price of the International Spirits common stock.

 

Our amended and restated documents will contain provisions, which together with applicable Nevada law, may discourage, delay or prevent a merger or acquisition that our stockholders consider favorable.

 

These provisions may discourage, delay or prevent certain types of transactions involving an actual or a threatened acquisition or change in control of International Spirits, including unsolicited takeover attempts, even though the transaction may offer our stockholders the opportunity to sell their International Spirits common stock at a price above the prevailing market price. See “ Description of Our Capital Stock—Certain Provisions of Nevada Law, Our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and Amended and Restated By-laws” for more information.

 

Risks Related to our Common Stock

 

Our common stock currently trades on the OTC QB tier of the OTC Markets under the symbol “ISBG.” An active trading market may not be sustained following the distribution by the selling stockholders. Our stock price may fluctuate significantly.

 

An active trading market for our common stock may not be sustained in the future. The lack of an active market may make it more difficult for stockholders to sell our shares and could lead to our share price being depressed or volatile.

 

We cannot predict the prices at which the International Spirits common stock may trade after the distribution. The market price of the International Spirits common stock may fluctuate widely, depending on many factors, some of which may be beyond our control, including:

 

●     actual or anticipated fluctuations in our operating results due to factors related to our businesses;

●     success or failure of our business strategies;

●     our quarterly or annual earnings or those of other companies in our industries;

●     our ability to obtain financing as needed;

●     announcements by us or our competitors of significant acquisitions or dispositions;

●     changes in accounting standards, policies, guidance, interpretations or principles;

●     the failure of securities analysts to cover the International Spirits common stock after the distribution;

●     changes in earnings estimates by securities analysts or our ability to meet those estimates;

●     the operating and stock price performance of other comparable companies;

●     investor perception of our company and the distilled spirits industry;

●     overall market fluctuations;

●     results from any material litigation or government investigation;

●     changes in laws and regulations (including tax laws and regulations) affecting our business;

●     changes in capital gains taxes and taxes on dividends affecting stockholders; and

●     general economic conditions and other external factors.

 

Stock markets in general have experienced volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of a particular company.

 

These broad market fluctuations could adversely affect the trading price of the International Spirits common stock.

 

 

 

Our future sales of common stock by stockholders may have an adverse effect on the then prevailing market price of our common stock.

 

In the event a public market for our common stock is sustained in the future, sales of our common stock may be made by holders of our public float or by holders of restricted securities in compliance with the provisions of Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933. In general, under Rule 144, a non-affiliated person who has satisfied a six-month holding period in a company registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, may, sell their restricted common stock without volume limitation, so long as the issuer is current with all reports under the Exchange Act in order for there to be adequate common public information. Affiliated persons may also sell their common shares held for at least six months, but affiliated persons will be required to meet certain other requirements, including manner of sale, notice requirements and volume limitations. Non-affiliated persons who hold their common shares for at least one year will be able to sell their common stock without the need for there to be current public information in the hands of the public. Future sales of shares of our public float or by restricted common stock made in compliance with Rule 144 may have an adverse effect on the then prevailing market price, if any, of our common stock.

 

Lack of Independent Directors.

 

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires us as a public corporation to have an audit committee composed solely of independent directors. Currently, we have no independent directors and lack an audit committee of the board of directors. Audit committee communications will have to go directly to board members and addressed with the board of directors. We can provide no assurances that we will be able to attract and maintain independent directors on our board or form an audit committee in compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley.

 

We do not expect to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

 

We do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. We may not have sufficient funds to legally pay dividends. Even if funds are legally available to pay dividends, we may nevertheless decide in our sole discretion not to pay dividends. The declaration, payment and amount of any future dividends will be made at the discretion of our board of directors, and will depend upon, among other things, the results of our operations, cash flows and financial condition, operating and capital requirements, and other factors our board of directors may consider relevant. There is no assurance that we will pay any dividends in the future, and, if dividends are paid, there is no assurance with respect to the amount of any such dividend.

 

As a public company, we are subject to complex legal and accounting requirements that will require us to incur significant expenses and will expose us to risk of non-compliance.

 

As a public company, we are subject to numerous legal and accounting requirements that do not apply to private companies. The cost of compliance with many of these requirements is material, not only in absolute terms but, more importantly, in relation to the overall scope of the operations of a small company. Our relative inexperience with these requirements may increase the cost of compliance and may also increase the risk that we will fail to comply. Failure to comply with these requirements can have numerous adverse consequences including, but not limited to, our inability to file required periodic reports on a timely basis, loss of market confidence and/or governmental or private actions against us. We cannot assure you that we will be able to comply with all of these requirements or that the cost of such compliance will not prove to be a substantial competitive disadvantage vis-à-vis our privately held and larger public competitors.

 

Compliance with changing regulation of corporate governance and public disclosure will result in additional expenses and pose challenges for our management.

 

Changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure, including the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and SEC regulations, have created uncertainty for public companies and significantly increased the costs and risks associated with accessing the U.S. public markets. Our management team will need to devote significant time and financial resources to comply with both existing and evolving standards for public companies, which will lead to increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue generating activities to compliance activities.

 

 

 

We will need to raise substantial additional capital in the future to fund our operations and we may be unable to raise such funds when needed and on acceptable terms.

 

When we elect to raise additional funds or additional funds are required, we may raise such funds from time to time through public or private equity offerings, debt financings, corporate collaboration and licensing arrangements or other financing alternatives. Additional equity or debt financing or corporate collaboration and licensing arrangements may not be available on acceptable terms, if at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital in sufficient amounts or on terms acceptable to us, we will be prevented from pursuing development and commercialization efforts and our ability to generate revenues and achieve or sustain profitability will be substantially harmed.

 

If we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, our stockholders will experience dilution. Debt financing, if available, would result in increased fixed payment obligations and may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. Any debt financing or additional equity that we raise may contain terms, such as liquidation and other preferences, which are not favorable to us or our stockholders. If we raise additional funds through collaboration and licensing arrangements with third parties, it may be necessary to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams or product candidates or to grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. Should the financing we require to sustain our working capital needs be unavailable or prohibitively expensive when we require it, our business, operating results, financial condition and prospects could be materially and adversely affected and we may be unable to continue our operations.

 

We are subject to penny stock regulations and restrictions and you may have difficulty selling shares of our common stock.

 

Our common stock is subject to the provisions of Section 15(g) and Rule 15g-9 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), commonly referred to as the “penny stock rule.” Section 15(g) sets forth certain requirements for transactions in penny stock, and Rule 15g-9(d) incorporates the definition of “penny stock” that is found in Rule 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act. The SEC generally defines a penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. We are subject to the SEC’s penny stock rules.

 

Since our common stock is deemed to be penny stock, trading in the shares of our common stock is subject to additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell penny stock to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. “Accredited investors” are persons with assets in excess of $1,000,000 (excluding the value of such person’s primary residence) or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 together with their spouse. For transactions covered by these rules, broker-dealers must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of such security and must have the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the purchase. Additionally, for any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require the delivery, prior to the first transaction of a risk disclosure document, prepared by the SEC, relating to the penny stock market. A broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stocks held in an account and information to the limited market in penny stocks.

 

Consequently, these rules may restrict the ability of broker-dealer to trade and/or maintain a market in our common stock and may affect the ability of our stockholders to sell their shares of common stock.

 

There can be no assurance that our shares of common stock will qualify for exemption from the Penny Stock Rule. In any event, even if our common stock was exempt from the Penny Stock Rule, we would remain subject to Section 15(b)(6) of the Exchange Act, which gives the SEC the authority to restrict any person from participating in a distribution of penny stock if the SEC finds that such a restriction would be in the public interest.

 

 

 

We currently qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart of Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act, and we cannot be certain that the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our common stock less attractive to investors.

 

The JOBS Act permits “emerging growth companies” like us, to rely on some of the reduced disclosure requirements that are already available to smaller reporting companies. As long as we qualify as an emerging growth company or a smaller reporting company, we would be permitted to omit the auditor’s attestation on internal control over financial reporting that would otherwise be required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as described above, and are also exempt from the requirement to submit “say-on-pay”, “say-on-pay frequency” and “say-on-parachute” votes to our stockholders and may avail ourselves of reduced executive compensation disclosure that is already available to smaller reporting companies.

 

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the exemption from complying with new or revised accounting standards provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as long as we are an emerging growth company. An emerging growth company can therefore delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We intend to take advantage of the benefits of this until we are no longer an emerging growth company or until we affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of this exemption. Our financial statements may therefore not be comparable to those of companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.

 

We will continue to be deemed an emerging growth company until the earliest of (i) the last day of the fiscal year during which we had total annual gross revenues of $1 billion (as indexed for inflation); (ii) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of common stock under this registration statement; (iii) the date on which we have, during the previous 3-year period, issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt; or (iv) the date on which we are deemed to be a “large accelerated filer,” as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission, which would generally occur upon our attaining a public float of at least $700 million. Once we lose emerging growth company status, we expect the costs and demands placed upon our management to increase, as we would have to comply with additional disclosure and accounting requirements, particularly if we would also not qualify as a smaller reporting company.

 

Our common stock is subject to price volatility unrelated to our operations.

 

The market price of our common stock could fluctuate substantially due to a variety of factors, including market perception of our ability to achieve our planned growth, quarterly operating results of other companies in the same industry, trading volume in our common stock, changes in general conditions in the economy and the financial markets or other developments affecting our competitors or ourselves. In addition, the OTCQB is subject to extreme price and volume fluctuations in general. This volatility has had a significant effect on the market price of securities issued by many companies for reasons unrelated to their operating performance and could have the same effect on our common stock.

 

Trading in our common stock on the OTC Markets QB tier is limited and sporadic making it difficult for our shareholders to sell their shares or liquidate their investments.

 

Trading in our common stock is currently published on the OTCQB Markets. The trading price of our common stock has been subject to wide fluctuations. Trading prices of our common stock may fluctuate in response to a number of factors, many of which will be beyond our control. The stock market has generally experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of companies with no current business operation. There can be no assurance that trading prices and price earnings ratios previously experienced by our common stock will be matched or maintained. These broad market and industry factors may adversely affect the market price of our common stock, regardless of our operating performance. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company's securities, securities class-action litigation has often been instituted. Such litigation, if instituted, could result in substantial costs for us and a diversion of management's attention and resources.

 

 

 

If we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, our stockholders will experience dilution. Debt financing, if available, would result in increased fixed payment obligations and may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures or declaring dividends. Any debt financing or additional equity that we raise may contain terms, such as liquidation and other preferences, which are not favorable to us or our stockholders. If we raise additional funds through collaboration and licensing arrangements with third parties, it may be necessary to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies, future revenue streams or product candidates or to grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. Should the financing we require to sustain our working capital needs be unavailable or prohibitively expensive when we require it, our business, operating results, financial condition and prospects could be materially and adversely affected and we may be unable to continue our operations.

 

While we currently qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart of Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act, when we lose that status the costs and demands placed upon our management will increase.

 

We are deemed an emerging growth company until the earliest of (i) the last day of the fiscal year during which we had total annual gross revenues of $1 billion (as indexed for inflation); (ii) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the first sale of common stock under this registration statement; (iii) the date on which we have, during the previous 3-year period, issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt; or (iv) the date on which we are deemed to be a “large accelerated filer, “ as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission, which would generally occur upon our attaining a public float of at least $700 million. Once we lose emerging growth company status, we expect the costs and demands placed upon our management to increase, as we would have to comply with additional disclosure and accounting requirements, particularly if we would also no longer qualify as a smaller reporting company.

 

The sale of shares by the selling stockholders may compete with proposed sales by our existing stockholders and could cause the price of our common stock to decline.

 

We are registering 14,792,713 shares. The number of shares offered for sale under this prospectus depends upon market liquidity at the time, sales of shares of the shares may cause the trading price of our common stock to decline.

 

Sales of shares under the registration statement, of which this prospectus is a part, will result in competition to the interests of other holders of our common stock. The sale of a substantial number of shares, or anticipation of such sales, could make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and at a price that we might otherwise wish to effect sales.

 

The shares of common stock distributed to U.S. stockholders of Top Shelf may be includable in income.

 

U.S. Holders that have acquired different blocks of Top Shelf common stock at different times or at different prices should consult their tax advisors regarding the allocation of their adjusted tax basis among, and the holding period of, shares of our International Spirits common stock distributed with respect to such blocks of Top Shelf common stock.

 

Treasury Regulations require each Top Shelf stockholder that, immediately before the distribution, owned 5% or more (by vote or value) of the total outstanding stock of Top Shelf to attach to such stockholder’s U.S. federal income tax return for the year in which the distribution occurs a statement setting forth certain information related to the distribution.

Our Company

 

ISBG is currently the authorized importer, licensor and marketer of the Besado Tequila™ and Dziaq Liqueur™. The Company’s intention is to create an alcohol beverage industry brand incubator. Developing and growing brands through all phases including concept creation, go-to-market strategies, supply chain and logistics technology, sales and integrated marketing. The Company plans to expand its wine and spirit portfolio by building brands both in-house as well as through targeted acquisition. The development of supply chain based technology, through potential acquisitions and partnerships will also be a complimentary focus. We hope to become an acquisition target while seeking listing on a national stock exchange and have our trades reported in the United States on the OTC Markets OTCQX tier.

 

Market Opportunity

 

According to Allied Market Research, a market research and advisory company of Allied Analytics LLP, within their closing 2017 remarks predicted the Global Alcoholic Beverages Market to reach $1.594 billion by 2022, with the distilled spirits segment accounting for over one- third of the global market share. In terms of volume, the distilled spirits held approximately 28% share in the overall market. Consumption of alcoholic beverages in North America is expected to increase due to the growth in young ‐ adult population, and change in trend to elevated consumption of high-quality alcoholic beverages. Emerging markets such as China and India, are expected to witness the highest increase in demand for alcoholic beverages during the forecast period in Asia-Pacific.

 

The market opportunity within the alcohol beverage market is vast; however, we face competition from other companies that are much larger than we are and have longer operating histories. We continue to work to develop both our brands and our team to expand both brand awareness and distribution of our products.

 

Plan of Operation

 

Our revenues to date have been limited. However, we have been executing our business plan, developing and launching our website, research and development of products and trial testing of other formulations. We do not have the necessary capital to fully develop our plan of operation until we are able to secure additional financing. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available on suitable terms. We need to raise an additional $500,000 to satisfy our commitments to our joint venture partners over the next twelve months. Our current cash on hand is insufficient to fully commercialize the products of our joint venture partners and fully develop our business strategy. If we are unable to raise adequate additional funds or if those funds are not available on terms that are acceptable to us, we will not be able to execute our business plan and we may cease operations. Our main objections are as follows:

 

 

 

●      Further development of our Besado Tequila brand, moving production to Mexico, launching both a Reposado and Anejo to complement our current offerings, and expanding both domestic and export market distribution;

 

●     Refresh of the Dziaq Liqueur ™ brand, reformulated to an OTS (wine base) based RTD (ready-to-drink) brand, creating an all natural single serve offering aimed towards LDA-34 market with c store market push;

 

●     Concentrated core market sales and integrated marketing efforts will be commenced to support our brands. Experiential marketing, social influencer programming, including product placement within music, film and television, will be part of our integrated plan to grow brand awareness that generates and supports sales;

 

●     Developing supply chain technology will further assist back of house operations, including potential strategic partnerships, acquisitions, and engagement with leading edge distribution ledger technology companies. Within our brand incubator construct is the goal of complete brand creation and objective to maximize efficiencies of go-to-market strategies. Technology that can navigate the alcohol beverage system from regulatory, to supplier sourcing and purchasing, production, shipping, storage, wholesale, taxation, and beyond.

 

●     Building our management and operations team will be a focus. Emphasis on sourcing and securing experienced and dynamic individuals to strengthen our team;

 

●     Expand our portfolio through in house brand creation or via targeted acquisition.

 

Financial Support

 

We have entered into an agreement with the Jacqueline Ellam Autry Trust to provide financing in two stages:

 

●     The first stage was executed on the 27th day of April 2015 when we issued 100,000,000 shares of our common stock in exchange for $961,966.50.

●     The second stage is scheduled for first day of July 2015 when the trust agreed to advance a loan in the amount of an additional $961,966.50. The second stage has not been performed.

●     The second stage also provides for the issuance of the number of shares of our common stock equal to 15% of the number of common shares outstanding at the time of the second closing.

 

The agreement also provides that we will elect Jacqueline Ellam Autry as a member of our board of directors and give her four admission tickets to our season suite for home games on the New York Giants and New York Jets.

 

Our History

 

We were organized as a Nevada for-profit corporation on the 5th day of June 2001 under the name Fishing Buddy, Inc. On May 11, 2007 we changed our corporate name to FIMA, Inc. On the 31st day of December 2014 we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of International Spirits and Beverage Group, Inc., organized as a Texas for-profit corporation September 12, 2014. On the 6th day of May 2015, under our name FIMA, Inc., we entered into a plan and agreement of merger with our wholly owned subsidiary, Texas corporation, International Spirits and Beverage Group, Inc. On March 13, 2015 we filed certificates of merger in Texas and Nevada to merge the Texas International Spirits and Beverage Group, Inc. with and into FIMA, Inc. The merger became effective March 31, 2015.

 

March 17, 2015, we filed amended and restated articles of incorporation in Nevada to become effective March 31, 2015, that, among other things, changed our name from FIMA, Inc. to International Spirits and Beverage Group, Inc. On August 25, 2017 we filed amended and restated articles of incorporation in Nevada that, among other things, changed our name from International Spirits and Beverage Group, Inc. to International Spirits and Beverage Group, Inc.

Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company

 

We qualify as an emerging growth company as that term is used in the JOBS Act. An emerging growth company may take advantage of specified reduced reporting and other burdens that are otherwise applicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:

 

● A requirement to have only two years of audited financial statements and only two years of related MD&A;

● Exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of the emerging growth company’s internal control over financial reporting under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002;

 

●     Reduced disclosure about the emerging growth company’s executive compensation arrangements; and

●     No non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements.

 

We have already taken advantage of these reduced reporting burdens in this prospectus, which are also available to us as a smaller reporting company as defined under Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act.

 

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended for complying with new or revised accounting standards. We have elected to use the extended transition period provided above and therefore our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.

 

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

Mr. Pierce holds voting control of the company and Top Shelf. Therefore, the two corporations are affiliates. Mr. Pierce owns no equity interest in either Company.

 

Following the distribution, Top Shelf will not own any equity interest in us, and we will operate independently from Top Shelf. No approval of Top Shelf’s common stockholders is required in connection with the distribution, and Top Shelf’s common stockholders will not have any appraisal rights in connection with the distribution.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

This overview provides an adequate discussion of our operating results and some of the trends that affect our business. We believe that an understanding of these trends is useful in fully understanding our financial results for the years ended December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016, as well as the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017.

 

This summary is not intended to be exhaustive, nor is it intended to be a substitute for the detailed discussion and analysis provided elsewhere in this report, including our audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.

 

General Discussion

 

We are a brand incubator in the global wine and spirits market. The company develops and grows brands through all phases including concept creation, product development, market positioning, sales and marketing. The company’s lead brand Besado Platinum Tequila was successfully launched to participate in the rapidly expanding premium tequila market. We entered into a production agreement with a Florida-based distillery, Florida Caribbean Distillers, for the production, packaging, storage and shipping of our products. Current revenues are generated through sales of Besado Platinum Tequila through our distributors in Texas, Georgia, New York, New Jersey, Florida and Louisiana. We do not sell direct to consumers. We are licensed to market alcoholic beverages in all regions within the distribution footprint of our current distributors and we have a basic permit from Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (“TTB”) to import alcohol products into the U.S.

 

The Company currently develops Besado Platinum Tequila. We intend to expand our products to include a full tequila line, with Reposado and Anejo versions, which is only permitted to produce in Mexico and is regulated by the Consejo Regulador del Tequila (“CRT”). The Company’s business plan includes unique products with significant revenue potential.

 

These alcoholic beverages require extensive market development, market research, and live ops investment and have, in the opinion of management, the potential to become well-known and long-lasting alcoholic beverages. Furthermore, management agrees that our brand incubator model has an opportunity to expand in the beverage market that will leverage our internal talent and expertise in alcoholic beverage industry branding, marketing, and supply-chain logistics, with the objective of creating shareholder value through the identification and acquisition of undervalued craft liquor brands, which we will then bring to market with improved profitability by controlling costs and improving branding, marketing, and aggressive marketing.

 

The company has a brand which we believe to be the first of its kind using proprietary herbs such as Ginseng, Damiana and Maca. Our long-term strategy is predicated on the execution of our three-phase plan.

 

Strategy

 

Our objective is a cost-effective, outsourced production model, with best-in-business organic certified suppliers and manufacturers, combined with a full distribution and supply chain platform, that strategically places our team's focus and resources on the true task at hand – building our brand. A key factor to our success will be our ability to generate positive brand awareness. A focused strategy is critical. we know how important it is to be active within the marketplace.

 

Our approach is based on a combination of old fashioned face-to-face consumer engagement (sampling) within key markets and an integrated social and digital influencer strategy that accelerates brand awareness to both targeted consumers and retailers alike.

 

To accomplish this in a cost-effective manner, we employ a focused strategy aimed at optimizing sales and awareness within specific key markets. The seven (7) strategic states named above represent nearly 70% of the total U.S population and generate approximately 75% of all premium wine & spirits national sales. Simply put, our approach is to “fish where the fish are”.

 

It is therefore our intention to focus our efforts and resources within these markets, actively assisting our distributors and retailers to ensure our brand objectives are not only reached, but surpassed .

 

 

 

Current Outlook

 

The Company continues to have significant conviction regarding its alcoholic beverage brands as well its ability to incubate brands. As demonstrated by our persistence, we are confident in our ability to continue to drive strong year-over-year growth in key operating metrics as well as financial stability within our model. We our growth to come from a combination of brand growth from existing early movers as well as innovation creativity. The following factors are central to our performance:

 

●     Potential first-to-market opportunity. Incubation model could revolutionize the industry.

 

●     Solid & Flexible Business Plan. Strategic and cost-effective outsourced production model. Comprehensive and focused grass roots campaign with true competitive advantages. Can scale rapidly through capacity available at strategic partners.

 

●     Superior Management Team. Committed, principled and talented management with the experience necessary to reach and surpass company's objectives.

 

●     Large Market Opportunity. A superior competitive position, proprietary product, tangible customer benefits, and future expansion through highly active industry M&A activity.

 

●     Attractive Deal Structure. A reasonable valuation of the venture at the time of investment, to provide a substantial return-on-investment opportunity commensurate with risk.

 

●     Stable Industry. Highlighting the industry's continued growth in 2012 and 2013 with continued outperformance relative to the S&P 500 Index, the Wine & Spirit industry is highly regarded for its relative stability. IWSR forecasts global consumption of beverage alcohol to increase by 24.0% in volume and 22.5% in value over the next 10 years.

 

●     Brand Value. Absolut Vodka was purchased for $8.38 billion U.S. dollars and Patron Tequila recently turned down a $6 billion U.S. dollar acquisition offer. Recently lesser known brands, with modest sales, such as Eppa Sangria and DeLeon Tequila were acquired for $50M and $32M respectively.

 

We have determined and confirmed repeatedly during the past eighteen months, that our business model works if we attract sufficient capital for production, marketing, and research analytics.

 

We know that generating consistent, positive brand awareness is crucial to our success. Our marketing efforts are focused on our core markets using an integrated approach that combines public relations, digital, social, and influencer programming. Our strategy will connect with the tastemakers and influencers within each of our core markets to integrate our brand within the social fabric of each community.

 

ISBG Market Approach

 

We conduct regular and extensive research and due diligence on the Wine and Spirits industry as it continues to grow and evolve. We focus on identifying emerging opportunities, gathering intelligence on the competitive landscape, and understanding our position and bearing within it. This includes the application of tools, resources, and methods designed to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify key trends, prepare financial projections, and make strategic decisions and revenue assumptions for strategic targeting.

 

ISBG Market Operations

 

We manage our business by tracking various operating metrics that give us insight into user behavior in the sale of our beverages to the retail and end consumer.

 

The metrics that we use most frequently are cases of products that we sell to distributors and depending on the size of the distributor small, medium and large to determine a true case weighted average and utilization for true monthly averages and number of cases sold along with price per case, cost per case equaling our revenue. For Besado Platinum, Besado Reposado, Besado Anejo, and Dziaq RTD and seasonality being that the mixability usually changes between the seasons.

 

ISBG Key Metric: Bookings

 

“Bookings” is a non-GAAP financial measure that is equal to revenue recognized during the period plus the change in deferred revenue during the period. We record the sale of virtual goods as deferred revenue and then recognize that revenue over the estimated average life of the purchased virtual goods or as the virtual goods are consumed. Bookings, as opposed to revenue, is the fundamental top-line metric we use to manage our business, as we believe it is a useful indicator of the sales activity in a given period. Over the long term, the factors impacting our bookings and revenue are the same. However, in the short term, there are factors that may cause revenue to exceed or be less than bookings in any period.

 

 

 

We use bookings to evaluate the results of our operations, generate future operating plans, and assess the performance of our company. While we believe that this non-GAAP financial measure is useful in evaluating our business, this information should be considered as supplemental in nature and is not meant as a substitute for revenue recognized in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate bookings differently or not at all, which reduces its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2017-09 , Compensation Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting. ASU 2017-09, which provides guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. Per ASU 2017-9, an entity should account for the effects of a modification unless all the following are met: (1) the fair value (or calculated value or intrinsic value, if such an alternative measurement method is used) of the modified award is the same as the fair value (or calculated value or intrinsic value, if such an alternative measurement method is used) of the original award immediately before the original award is modified. If the modification does not affect any of the inputs to the valuation technique that the entity uses to value the award, the entity is not required to estimate the value immediately before and after the modification, (2) the vesting conditions of the modified award are the same as the vesting conditions of the original award immediately before the original award is modified, and (3) the classification of the modified award as an equity instrument or a liability instrument is the same as the classification of the original award immediately before the original award is modified. The current disclosure requirements in Topic 718 apply regardless of whether an entity is required to apply modification accounting under the amendments in ASU 2017-9. ASU 2017-9 is effective for public business entities for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period, for (1) public business entities for reporting periods for which financial statements have not yet been issued and (2) all other entities for reporting periods for which financial statements have not yet been made available for issuance. The amendments in this ASU should be applied prospectively to an award modified on or after the adoption date. The adoption of ASU 2017-9 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements or related disclosures.

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASU 2014-09). The standard provides companies with a single model for use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific revenue guidance. The core principle of the model is to recognize revenue when control of the goods or services transfers to the customer, as opposed to recognizing revenue when the risks and rewards transfer to the customer under the existing revenue guidance. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is not permitted. The guidance permits companies to either apply the requirements retrospectively to all prior periods presented, or apply the requirements in the year of adoption, through a cumulative adjustment. We have not yet selected a transition method nor have we determined the impact of adoption on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists (ASU 2013-11). ASU 2013-11 requires an entity to present an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward. To the extent a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. ASU No. 2013-11 is effective for financial statements issued for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2013 and interim periods within those years.

Our main objections are:

 

● Further development of our Besado Tequila brand, moving production to Mexico, launching both a Reposado and Anejo to complement our current offering, and expanding both domestic and export market distribution;

● Refresh of the Dziaq Liqueur ™ brand, reformulated to an OTS (wine base) based RTD (ready-to-drink) brand, creating an all natural single serve offering aimed towards LDA-34 market with c store market push;

● Concentrated core market sales and integrated marketing efforts will be commenced to support our brands. Experiential marketing, social influencer programming, including product placement within music, film and television, will be part of our integrated plan to grow brand awareness that generates and supports sales;

● Developing supply chain technology will further assist back of house operations, including potential strategic partnerships, acquisitions, and engagement with leading edge distribution ledger technology companies. Within our brand incubator construct is the goal of complete brand creation and objective to maximize efficiencies of go-to-market strategies. Technology that can navigate the alcohol beverage system from regulatory, to supplier sourcing and purchasing, production, shipping, storage, wholesale, taxation, and beyond.

● Building our management and operations team will be a focus. Emphasis on sourcing and securing experienced and dynamic individuals to strengthen our team;

● Expand our portfolio through in-house brand creation or via targeted acquisition.

 

 

 

Product development

 

Besado Tequila

 

Phase One - Pre-Production Mexico

 

We are attempting to achieve the earliest available production time in order to coincide with the availability of our glass and closures. We anticipate the following steps:

 

●     Besado.com web site re-designed & developed immediately with phase one completion within 30 days.

●     social media channels re-established & developed and populated within 30 days.

●     POS & POP merchandise designed, developed and ready-for-market within 30 days.

●     Secure & purchase initial premium tequila allotment as well as first-run herbal ingredient minimums.

●     Before we can successfully engage both media and consumers (both trade and actual) we must have our web site and social channels activated. This will provide our customers, retailers, distributors, and on-premise accounts alike with a far better understanding of our brand and the opportunity.

 

Dziaq Liqueur™

 

We are making great headway with the slight re-brand of our Dziaq Liqueur™. We are re-engineering the product to be wine based. This will provide us with double the retail reach in comparison to its previous spirit based formulation. We will in fact have two (2) offerings (see below) that are lightly carbonated, wine based ready-to-drink style beverages in both 12oz cans. This will allow activations throughout multi-channel store systems including both national grocer/supermarket and national gas/convenience. Vibrant re-packaging and formulation is underway that not only provides us a fresh modern look but also reduces our original unit cost by over 40%.

 

Supply Chain & Logistics

 

We have engaged Park Street Imports, LLC to purchase and hold title to product for our benefit on payment to be agreed upon. Park Street will provide national logistics, compliance warehousing, inventory, shipping, and receivables. Climate controlled warehousing is located in Texas, Florida, New Jersey, and California. With Park Street, considered among the best-in-the-business, we will have a fully scalable national infrastructure, a 50-state wholesale platform, and equally important the ability to place our focus squarely at the task at hand - growing effective brand awareness and selling product.

 

Suppliers & Production

 

As of July 23, 2015, we entered into a Standard Production Agreement with a Florida-based distillery, Florida Caribbean Distillers, for the production, packaging, storage and shipping of our products. Florida Caribbean will also provide us with production flexibility and options with their state-of-the-art facilities. In addition, we plan an additional distillery co-packer located in Jalisco Mexico for Besado Tequila.

Online Retail

 

We have national on-line sales platform that allows consumers in many zip codes to purchase our Besado only products directly off of our website. This has been renewed and improved to allow additional consumer shipping options. We are also in the midst of preliminary talks with Whole Foods/Amazon to carry our complete Besado Tequila™ and Dziaq Liqueur™ (being wine based) line commencing for fall 2018.

All efforts will be targeted to support not only brand awareness but have direct retail tie-in. Within each event or ad will be retail push direction designed to maximize awareness but fundamentally link to ROI objectives with social strategy integrated throughout.

The development of the platform is in its preliminary stages.

Regulatory Environment

 

The production, storage, transportation, distribution, and sale of our products are subject to regulation by federal, state, local, and foreign authorities. Various countries and local jurisdictions prohibit or restrict the marketing or sale of distilled spirits in whole or in part.

 

The Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau of the U.S. Department of the Treasury regulates the wine and spirits industry in the United States with respect to production, blending, bottling, labeling, sales, advertising, and transportation of beverage alcohol products. Similar regulatory regimes exist in each state, as well as in most of the non-U.S. jurisdictions where we sell our products. In addition, distilled spirits products are subject to customs duties or excise taxation in many markets, including in the United States, at the federal, state, or local level.

 

Mexican authorities regulate the production and bottling of tequilas, which, among other specifications, mandate minimum aging periods for anejo (one year) and reposado (two months) tequilas. We comply with these regulations.

 

Our operations within and outside the United States are subject to various environmental protection statutes and regulations, and our policy is to comply with all those regulatory requirements.

 

Staffing

 

Our management team includes experts in marketing, merchandising and store operations and tenure that are unique in our industry. Field management includes territory vice presidents and regional managers supervising multiple store locations.

 

 

 

Legal Proceedings

 

We may be subject to legal proceedings and claims arising from contracts or other matters from time to time in the ordinary course of business. Management is not aware of any pending or threatened litigation where the ultimate disposition or resolution could have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

 

In April of 2017, we entered into a settlement agreement about disputed compensation owed to a former employee. Pursuant to the settlement agreement, we agreed to pay a total of $72,000 over eight monthly payments of $9,000 commencing on April 28, 2017..

 

During 2017, seven of the payments were missed and we accrued an additional $3,500 of late fee penalties in accordance with the agreement.

There are no family relationships among our directors or executive officers.

 

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

 

During the past ten (10) years, none of our directors, persons nominated to become directors, executive officers, promoters or control persons was involved in any of the legal proceedings listen in Item 401(f) of Regulation S-K.

 

Arrangements

 

There are no arrangements or understandings between our executive officers or directors and any other person pursuant to which he or she is to be selected as an executive officer or director.

 

Significant Employees and Consultants

 

Alonzo Pierce is our sole employee. Art Massolo, is our sole consultant.

 

Code of Ethics

 

We have adopted a code of ethics that applies to our executive officers and employees.

 

Corporate Governance

 

Our business, property and affairs are managed by, or under the direction of, our board, in accordance with the Nevada Revised Statutes and our bylaws. Members of the board are kept informed of our business through discussions with the Chief Executive Officer and other key members of management, by reviewing materials provided to them by management.

 

We continue to review our corporate governance policies and practices by comparing our policies and practices with those suggested by various groups or authorities active in evaluating or setting best practices for corporate governance of public companies. Based on this review, we have adopted, and will continue to adopt, changes that the board believes are the appropriate corporate governance policies and practices for our Company. We have adopted changes and will continue to adopt changes, as appropriate, to comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and subsequent rule changes made by the SEC and any applicable securities exchange.

 

Director Qualifications and Diversity

 

The board seeks independent directors who represent a diversity of backgrounds and experiences that will enhance the quality of the board’s deliberations and decisions. Candidates shall have substantial experience with one or more publicly traded companies or shall have achieved a high level of distinction in their chosen fields. The board is particularly interested in maintaining a mix that includes individuals who are active or retired executive officers and senior executives, particularly those with experience in the finance and capital market industries.

 

 

 

In evaluating nominations to the board of directors, our board also looks for certain personal attributes, such as integrity, ability and willingness to apply sound and independent business judgment, comprehensive understanding of a director’s role in corporate governance, availability for meetings and consultation on Company matters, and the willingness to assume and carry out fiduciary responsibilities. Qualified candidates for membership on the board will be considered without regard to race, color, religion, sex, ancestry, national origin or disability. Under the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations definition, an “independent director” means a person other than an officer or employee of the Company or its subsidiaries or any other individuals having a relationship that, in the opinion of the Company’s board of directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of the director. The board’s discretion in determining director independence is not completely unfettered. Further, under the NASDAQ definition, an independent director is a person who (1) is not currently (or whose immediate family members are not currently), and has not been over the past three years (or whose immediate family members have not been over the past three years), employed by the company; (2) has not (or whose immediate family members have not) been paid more than $120,000 during the current or past three fiscal years; (3) has not (or whose immediately family has not) been a partner in or controlling shareholder or executive officer of an organization which the company made, or from which the company received, payments in excess of the greater of $200,000 or 5% of that organizations consolidated gross revenues, in any of the most recent three fiscal years; (4) has not (or whose immediate family members have not), over the past three years been employed as an executive officer of a company in which an executive officer of the Company has served on that company’s compensation committee; or is not currently (or whose immediate family members are not currently), and has not been over the past three years (or whose immediate family members have not been over the past three years) a partner of our outside auditor.

 

We have three (3) independent directors: Art Mazzolo, Suzy Guillory and Angela Greathouse, who is also Chairman of the audit committee.

 

Committees

 

We have a separately designated audit committee, compensation committee, nominating committee, executive committee of our board of directors. We activated only the audit committee. We believe the committees of the board, other than the audit committee are not necessary at this time.

 

The term “Financial Expert” is defined under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, as a person who has the following attributes: an understanding of generally accepted accounting principles and financial statements; has the ability to assess the general application of such principles in connection with the accounting for estimates, accruals and reserves; experience preparing, auditing, analyzing or evaluating financial statements that present a breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues that are generally comparable to the breadth and complexity of issues that can reasonably be expected to be raised by the company’s financial statements, or experience actively supervising one or more persons engaged in such activities; an understanding of internal controls and procedures for financial reporting; and an understanding of audit committee functions.

 

Ms. Greathouse qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert.” And we have designated her to the role of chairman of the audit committee

 

The Company may in the future elect more members of the audit committee who are independent directors. Our audit committee charter provides:

 

●     being directly responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of our independent auditor, which shall report directly to the audit committee, including resolution of disagreements between management and the auditors regarding financial reporting for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or related work;

 

●     annually reviewing and reassessing the adequacy of the committee’s formal charter;

 

●     reviewing the annual audited financial statements with our management and the independent auditors and the adequacy of our internal accounting controls;

 

●     reviewing analyses prepared by our management and independent auditors concerning significant financial reporting issues and judgments made in connection with the preparation of our financial statements;

 

 

 

●     reviewing the independence of the independent auditors;

 

●     reviewing our auditing and accounting principles and practices with the independent auditors and reviewing major changes to our auditing and accounting principles and practices as suggested by the independent auditor or its management;

 

●     reviewing all related party transactions on an ongoing basis for potential conflict of interest situations; and

 

●     all responsibilities given to the audit committee by virtue of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which was signed into law by President George W. Bush on July 30, 2002.

 

Risk Oversight

 

Enterprise risks are identified and prioritized by management and each prioritized risk is assigned to the board for oversight. These risks include, without limitation, the following:

 

●     Risks and exposures associated with strategic, financial and execution risks and other current matters that may present material risk to our operations, plans, prospects or reputation.

 

●     Risks and exposures associated with financial matters, particularly financial reporting, tax, accounting, disclosure, internal control over financial reporting, financial policies, investment guidelines and credit and liquidity matters.

 

●     Risks and exposures relating to corporate governance; and management and director succession planning.

 

●     Risks and exposures associated with leadership assessment, and compensation programs and arrangements, including incentive plans.

 

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

 

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than ten percent of our common stock to file reports of ownership and change in ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the exchange on which the common stock is listed for trading. Executive officers, directors and more than ten percent stockholders are required by regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports filed. Based solely on our review of copies of the Section 16(a) reports filed for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, we believe that our executive officers, directors and ten percent stockholders complied with all reporting requirements applicable to them.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

 

507,059 shares of International Spirits common stock have been issued to Top Shelf. After the distribution to its 458 stockholders of record, Top Shelf will not own any of the International Spirits common stock.

The following table provides information with respect to the beneficial ownership of the International Spirits common stock that is not affected by the distribution by (i) each person who we believe will be a beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding International Spirits common stock, (ii) each of our directors and our named executive officers, and (iii) all directors and executive officers as a group.

 

None of our directors and officers own Top Shelf common stock common stock and will not participate in the distribution as holders of Top Shelf common stock.

 

 

 

Except as otherwise noted in the footnotes below, each person or entity identified below has sole voting and investment power with respect to such securities. Following the distribution, we will have outstanding the same number of shares of International Spirits common stock as we have outstanding on the date of this prospectus.

1.      The address of all of the officers and directors listed above are in the care of International Spirits and Beverage Group, Inc., 8300 FM 1960, Suite 450, Houston, Texas 77070.

 

2.      Under Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, a beneficial owner of a security includes any person who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise has or shares: (i) voting power, which includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of shares; and (ii) investment power, which includes the power to dispose or direct the disposition of shares. Certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon exercise of an option) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any person, the number of shares is deemed to include the number of shares beneficially owned by such person (and only such person) by reason of these acquisition rights. As a result, the percentage of outstanding shares of any person as shown in this table does not necessarily reflect the person’s actual ownership or voting power with respect to the number of shares of common stock actually outstanding on August 31, 2018.

 

3.     The Series E Preferred shares owned by Mr. Pierce are entitled to two thirds of any vote cast by shareholders. He owns the same class of securities in both Top Shelf and International Spirits. The preferred stock has no monetary or economic value other that the 2/3rds voting right.

 

4.     Percentages shown are based on 53,416,770 common shares and 1,000,000 Series E Preferred shares outstanding as of August 31, 2018 and assume the exercise by such persons of all options to acquire shares of our common stock that are exercisable within 60 days of August 31, 2018 and no exercise by any other person.

 

DILUTION

 

After giving effect to the issuance of 14,792,773 shares of common stock covered by the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, our actual and pro forma as adjusted net tangible book value as of December 31, 2017 is approximately $(2,007,751), or $(0.40) per share of common stock before giving effect to the issuance and $(1,507,751), or $(0.023) per share of common stock after giving effect to the issuance. This represents an increase in net tangible book value of $500,000 and an increase of $0.017 per share to our present shareholders.

 

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

 

The selling stockholders will receive common stock from Top Shelf by this prospectus. Top Shelf is our affiliate because Alonzo Pierce owns a call of preferred stock in each company that entitles him to two thirds of any vote held by either company. The preferred stock has no monetary or economic value other than voting rights.

 

The selling stockholders may from time to time offer and sell any or all of the shares of our common stock set forth below pursuant to this prospectus. When we refer to “selling stockholders” in this prospectus, we mean the persons listed in the table below, and the pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees, successors and others who later come to hold any of the selling stockholders’ interests in shares of our common stock other than through a public sale.

 

 

 

The resale by any or all of the 458 selling stockholders identified in this prospectus covers up to 507,059 shares of our common stock. The selling stockholders who receive stock in the distribution by Top Shelf under this prospectus, had no position, office or other material relationship with us within the immediately prior three years. We will not receive any part of the proceeds from sales of the shares of common stock by the selling stockholders. The selling stockholders will bear all commissions and discounts, if any, attributable to the sale or other disposition of the shares. We will bear all costs, expenses and fees in connection with the registration of the shares. The selling stockholders may, from time to time, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus on terms to be determined at the time of sale through ordinary brokerage transactions or through any other means described in this prospectus under the section entitled “Plan of Distribution-Selling Stockholders

 

Our common stock currently trades on the OTCQB of the OTC Markets under the symbol “ISBG”. On May 23, 2018, the closing price of our common stock as reported on the OTCQB was $.0274. After the distribution, common stock of International Spirits will continue to be reported on the OTCQB under the symbol “ISBG.” The distribution will be effective as of a date and time selected by the directors of Top Shelf. Immediately after the distribution, common stock of International Spirits will continue to be reported on the OTCQB under the symbol “ISBG”.

 

The following table sets forth, as of the date of this prospectus, the names of the selling stockholders for whom we are registering shares for resale to the public, and the number of shares of common stock that the selling stockholders may offer pursuant to this prospectus.

 

Beneficial ownership is determined according to the rules of the SEC and generally means that a person has beneficial ownership of a security if he, she, or it possesses sole or shared voting or investment power of that security, including options that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of the date of this prospectus. Except as indicated by the footnotes below, we believe, based on the information furnished to us, that the persons named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock shown that they beneficially own, subject to community property laws where applicable. The information does not necessarily indicate beneficial ownership for any other purpose.

 

Based on the information provided to us by the selling stockholders as of the date of this prospectus, assuming that the selling stockholders sell all of the shares of our common stock being registered hereunder and do not acquire any additional shares, the selling stockholders will not own any shares of our common stock after the completion of any offering of the shares being registered hereunder.

 

We cannot advise you as to whether the selling stockholders will in fact sell any or all of such shares of common stock. In addition, the selling stockholders may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of, at any time and from time to time, the shares of our common stock in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act after the date of this prospectus.

 

Our calculation of the percentage of beneficial ownership is based on 53,416,770 shares of common stock outstanding.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

Alonzo Pierce is the chief executive officer of Top Shelf. We believe that the transactions and agreements with Top Shelf discussed below (including renewals of any existing agreements) between us and a related party are at least as favorable to us as could have been obtained from unrelated parties at the time they were entered.

 

Agreements with Top Shelf

 

We and Top Shelf will operate independently, and neither will have any ownership interest in the other. The following summarizes the terms of the material agreements we have entered into with Top Shelf.

The distribution. The distribution agreement governs Top Shelf’s rights and obligations regarding the proposed distribution. Prior to the distribution, Top Shelf will deliver the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock for distribution to the distribution agent.

Certain Provisions of Nevada Law, Our Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and Amended and Restated By-laws

 

As noted above, certain provisions in our amended and restated articles of incorporation and our Amended and Restated By-laws summarized below may be deemed to have an anti-takeover effect and may delay, deter or prevent a tender offer or takeover attempt that a stockholder might consider to be in its best interests, including attempts that might result in a premium being paid over the market price for the shares held by stockholders. These provisions are intended to enhance the likelihood of continuity and stability in the composition of our Board and in the policies formulated by our Board and to discourage certain types of transactions that may involve an actual or threatened change of control.

 

Classified Board of Directors. Nevada law permits corporations to classify their board of directors so that less than all of the directors are elected each year to overlapping terms. We have a classified board consisting of three classes, elected to three-year terms. Our directors are assigned to classes to make the number of directors in each class as nearly equal as possible.

 

Removal of Directors. Nevada law provides that any or all directors may be removed by the vote of two-thirds of the voting interests entitled to vote for the election of directors. Nevada does not distinguish between removal of directors with or without cause. Our amended and restated articles of incorporation make it difficult for the shareholders to remove a member of the board of directors because, Alonzo Pierce, the holder of the Series E preferred stock has the right to a 2/3rds vote or by written consent.

 

Special Meetings of Stockholders. Nevada law does not address the manner in which special meetings of stockholders may be called but permits corporations to determine the manner in which meetings are called in their bylaws. Our amended and restated articles of incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws provide that special meetings of the stockholders may be called only by the board of directors or a committee of the board of directors that is delegated the power to call special meetings by the board of directors.

 

Special Meetings Pursuant to Petition of Stockholders. Under Nevada law shareholders having not less than 15% of the voting interest may petition the district court to order a meeting for the election of directors if a corporation fails to call a meeting for that purpose within 18 months after the last meeting at which directors were elected.

 

Cumulative Voting. Cumulative voting for directors entitles stockholders to cast a number of votes that is equal to the number of voting shares held multiplied by the number of directors to be elected. Stockholders may cast all such votes either for one nominee or distribute such votes among up to as many candidates as there are positions to be filled. Cumulative voting may enable a minority stockholder or group of stockholders to elect at least one representative to the board of directors where such stockholders would not otherwise be able to elect any directors. Nevada law permits cumulative voting if provided for in the certificate or articles of incorporation and pursuant to specified procedures. The amended and restated articles of incorporation prohibit cumulative voting.

 

 

 

Vacancies. Nevada law provides that vacancies may be filled by a majority of the remaining directors, though less than a quorum, unless the articles of incorporation provide otherwise. Neither our amended and restated articles of incorporation nor Amended and Restated Bylaws provide otherwise.

 

Indemnification of Officers and Directors and Advancement of Expenses. Nevada law applies to advance of expenses incurred by both officers and directors, and under Nevada law, the articles of incorporation, bylaws or an agreement made by the corporation may provide that the corporation must pay advancements of expenses in advance of the final disposition of the action, suit or proceedings upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined that he or she is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation. Our amended and restated articles of incorporation provide for the mandatory advancement of expenses of directors and officers.

 

Limitation on Personal Liability of Directors. Nevada law permits, and we have adopted, a broader exclusion of liability of directors to the corporation and its shareholders, providing for an exclusion of all monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty unless they arise from act or omissions which involve intentional misconduct, fraud or a knowing violation of law or payments of dividends or distributions in excess of the amount allowed. Our amended and restated articles of incorporation eliminate any liability of a director for a breach of the duty of loyalty unless arising from intentional misconduct, fraud, or a knowing violation of law.

 

Dividends. Nevada law provides that no distribution (including dividends on, or redemption or repurchases of, shares of capital stock) may be made if, after giving effect to such distribution, the corporation would not be able to pay its debts as they become due in the usual course of business, or, except as specifically permitted by the articles of incorporation, the corporation’s total assets would be less than the sum of its total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed at the time of a dissolution to satisfy the preferential rights of preferred stockholders.

 

Restrictions on Business Combinations. Nevada law contain provisions restricting the ability of a corporation to engage in business combinations with an interested stockholder. Nevada law regulates business combinations stringently. First, an “interested stockholder” is defined as a beneficial owner (directly or indirectly) of ten percent (10%) or more of the voting power of the outstanding shares of the corporation. Second, the three-year moratorium can be lifted only by advance approval by a corporation’s board of directors. Finally, after the three-year period, combinations with “interested stockholders” remain prohibited unless (i) they are approved by the board of directors, the disinterested stockholders or a majority of the outstanding voting power not beneficially owned by the interested party, or (ii) the interested stockholders satisfy certain fair value requirements. A Nevada corporation may opt-out of the statute with appropriate provisions in its articles of incorporation. We have opted out of the applicable statutes and the stringent requirements of Nevada law apply to mergers and combinations.

 

Limitations on Controlling Shareholders. Nevada law contains a provision that limits the voting rights of a person that acquires or makes an offer to acquire a controlling interest in a Nevada corporation. Under the provisions of Nevada law, a person acquiring or making an offer to acquire more than 20% of the voting power in a corporation will have only such voting rights as are granted by a resolution of the shareholders adopted at a special or annual meeting. The controlling person is not entitled to vote on the resolution granting voting rights to the controlling interest. The person acquiring a controlling interest may request a meeting of the shareholders be called for this purpose and, if the board of directors fails to call the meeting or the controlling person is not accorded full voting rights, the corporation must redeem the controlling shares at the average price paid for them.

 

Amendment to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws. Nevada law require the approval of the holders of a majority of all outstanding shares entitled to vote to approve proposed amendments to a corporation’s articles of incorporation. Nevada law also provides that in addition to the vote of the shareholders, the vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of a class may be required to amend the articles of incorporation. Nevada law does not require shareholder approval for the board of directors of a corporation to fix the voting powers, designation, preferences, limitations, restrictions and rights of a class of stock provided that the corporation’s organizational documents grant such power to its board of directors. Nevada law permit the number of authorized shares of any such class of stock to be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares then outstanding) by the board of directors unless otherwise provided in the articles of incorporation or resolution adopted pursuant to the articles of incorporation.

 

 

 

Actions by Written Consent of Stockholders. Nevada law provides that, unless the articles of Incorporation provide otherwise, any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of the shareholders may be taken without a meeting if the holders of outstanding stock having at least the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to vote consents to the action in writing. Although not required by Nevada law, our Amended and Restated bylaws require prompt notice to all shareholders of any action taken by less than unanimous written consent.

 

Stockholder Vote for Mergers and Other Corporation Reorganizations. Nevada law requires authorization by an absolute majority of the outstanding voting rights, as well as approval by the board of directors, of the terms of a merger or a sale of substantially all of the assets of the corporation. Nevada law require a shareholder vote of the surviving corporation in a merger (unless the corporation provides otherwise in its articles of incorporation) if: (a) the merger agreement does not amend the existing articles of incorporation of the surviving corporation; (b) each share of stock of the surviving corporation outstanding immediately before the effective date of the merger is an identical outstanding share after the merger; and (c) either no shares of common stock of the surviving corporation and no shares, securities or obligations convertible into such stock are to be issued or delivered under the plan of merger, or the authorized unissued shares or shares of common stock of the surviving corporation to be issued or delivered under the plan of merger plus those initially issuable upon conversion of any other shares, securities or obligations to be issued or delivered under such plan do not exceed twenty percent (20%) of the shares of common stock of such constituent corporation outstanding immediately prior to the effective date of the merger.

 

Transfer Agent and Registrar

 

The transfer agent and registrar for our Common Stock is Nevada Agency and Transfer Company. The transfer agent’s address is 50 West Liberty Street, Suite 880, Reno, Nevada 89501, and its telephone number is (775) 322-0626.

 

Listing

 

Trading of our common stock is reported on the OTC Markets under the QB tier under the symbol “ISBG.” After completion of the distribution, we intend to make application to move up to the OTCQB tier.

 

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

 

Future sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, including shares issued upon exercise of outstanding options or warrants, or the anticipation of these sales, could adversely affect market prices prevailing from time to time and could impair our ability to raise capital through sales of equity securities.

 

As of the date of this prospectus, 53,416,770 shares of our International Spirits common stock are issued and outstanding. The sales of common stock by the selling stockholders will not change the number of our outstanding shares because the shares are presently outstanding and held by Top Shelf.

 

Sale of Restricted Securities

 

The shares of our common stock previously issued to Top Shelf to be distributed to Top Shelf stockholders will be freely transferable, except for shares received by individuals who are our affiliates. Individuals who may be considered our affiliates after the distribution include individuals who control, are controlled by or are under common control with us, as those terms generally are interpreted for federal securities law purposes. These individuals may include some or all of our directors and executive officers.

 

Individuals who are our affiliates will be permitted to sell their shares of our International Spirits common stock only pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, or an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, such as those afforded by Section 4(1) of the Securities Act in connection with Rule 144 thereunder.

 

 

 

Rule 144

 

In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, a person (or persons whose shares are aggregated), including an affiliate, who beneficially owns “restricted securities” of a “reporting company” may sell these securities if the person has beneficially owned them for at least six months and additionally qualifies for the exemption in Section 4(a)(1) of the Securities Act. Notwithstanding the exemption in Section 4(a)(1), affiliates may not sell within any three-month period a number of shares in excess of the greater of: (i) 1% of the then outstanding shares of International Spirits common stock as shown by the most recent report or statement published by the issuer; and (ii) the average weekly reported trading volume in such securities during the four preceding calendar weeks.

 

Sales under Section 3(a)(1) and Rule 144 by our affiliates will also be subject to restrictions relating to manner of sale, notice and the availability of current public information about us and may be affected only through unsolicited brokers’ transactions.

 

Persons not deemed to be affiliates who have beneficially owned “restricted securities” for at least six months but for less than one year may sell these securities, provided that current public information about International Spirits is “available,” which means that, on the date of sale, we have been subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for at least 90 days and are current in our Exchange Act filings. After beneficially owning “restricted securities” for one year, our non-affiliates may engage in unlimited re-sales of such securities.

 

Shares received by our affiliates in the distribution or upon exercise of stock options or upon vesting of other equity-linked awards may be “controlled securities” rather than “restricted securities.” “Controlled securities” are subject to the same volume limitations as “restricted securities” but are not subject to holding period requirements.

 

INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES

 

Our Articles of Incorporation provide that it will indemnify its officers and directors to the full extent permitted by Nevada state law. Our bylaws provide that we will indemnify and hold harmless our officers and directors for any liability including reasonable costs of defense arising out of any act or omission taken on our behalf, to the full extent allowed by Nevada law, if the officer or director acted in good faith and in a manner the officer or director reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act” or “Securities Act”) may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

 

Selling stockholders.

 

The selling stockholders will receive the common shares presently owned by Top Shelf and distributed to the selling shareholders pursuant to this prospectus. The selling shareholders, as used herein includes donees, pledgees, transferees or other successors-in-interest selling shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock received after the date of this prospectus from a selling stockholder as a gift, pledge, partnership distribution or other transfer, may, from time to time, sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any or all of their shares of common stock or interests in shares of common stock on any stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the shares are traded or in private transactions. These dispositions may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale, or at negotiated prices.

 

 

 

The selling stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when disposing of shares or interests therein:

 

●      ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

●      block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

●      purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

●      a distribution in accordance with the applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Securities Act;

●      privately negotiated transactions;

●      a combination of any such methods of sale; and

●      any other method permitted by law.

 

The selling stockholders may, from time to time, pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock, from time to time, under this prospectus, or under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus. The selling stockholders also may transfer the shares of common stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

 

In connection with the sale of our common stock or interests therein, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The selling stockholders may also sell shares of our common stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

 

The proceeds to the selling stockholders from the sale of the common stock offered by them is the purchase price of the common stock less discounts or commissions, if any. Each of the selling stockholders reserves the right to accept and, together with their agents from time to time, to reject, in whole or in part, any proposed purchase of common stock to be made directly or through agents. We will not receive any of the proceeds from this offering.

 

Brokers, dealers, underwriters, or agents participating in the distribution of the shares as agents may receive compensation in the form of commissions, discounts, or concessions from the selling stockholder or purchasers, or both, for whom the broker-dealers may act as agent.

 

The selling stockholders also may resell all or a portion of the shares in open market transactions in reliance upon the safe harbor of Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, provided that they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of that rule.

 

The selling stockholders and any underwriters, broker-dealers or agents that participate in the sale of the common stock or interests therein may be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act. Any discounts, commissions, concessions or profit they earn on any resale of the shares may be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. Selling stockholders are subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act, unless an exemption therefrom is available.

 

 

 

To the extent required, the shares of our common stock to be sold, the names of the selling stockholders, the respective purchase prices and public offering prices, the names of any agents, dealer or underwriter, any applicable commissions or discounts with respect to a particular offer will be set forth in an accompanying prospectus supplement or, if appropriate, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement that includes this prospectus.

 

To comply with the securities laws of some states, if applicable, the common stock may be sold in these jurisdictions only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the common stock may not be sold unless it has been registered or qualified for sale or an exemption from registration or qualification requirements is available and is complied with.

 

There can be no assurance that any selling shareholder will sell any or all of the shares of common stock registered pursuant to the shelf registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part.

 

We have advised the selling stockholders that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the selling stockholders and their affiliates. In addition, to the extent applicable we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the selling stockholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling stockholders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

 

We have agreed to indemnify the selling stockholders against liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act and state securities laws, relating to the registration of the shares offered by this prospectus.

 

We will pay all expenses of the registration of the shares of common stock pursuant to the registration rights agreement, including, without limitation, Securities and Exchange Commission filing fees and expenses of compliance with state securities or “blue sky” laws and the selling stockholders’ expenses; provided, however, that a selling shareholder will pay all underwriting discounts and selling commissions, if any.

 

We have agreed with the selling stockholders to keep the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part effective until the earlier of (1) such time as all of the shares covered by this prospectus have been disposed of pursuant to and in accordance with the registration statement or (2) the date on which the shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act without regard to any volume limitation requirements under Rule 144 of the Securities Act.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and

Stockholders of International Spirits & Beverage Group, Inc.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of International Spirits & Beverage Group, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the related notes and schedules (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company suffered a net loss from operations and has a net capital deficiency, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding those matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

INTERNATIONAL SPIRIT S & BEVERAGE GROUP, INC. (Formerly Fima, Inc.)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

 

Business

International Spirits & Beverage Group, Inc. (“ISBG”) was formed under the laws of the State of Texas on September 12, 2014. In March 2015, ISBG merged with and into FIMA, Inc., a Nevada corporation, with FIMA, Inc. being the surviving entity. FIMA, Inc. then changed its corporate name to International Spirits and Beverage Group, Inc., and remains a Nevada corporation. (Formerly FIMA Development Incorporated, which was formed under the laws of the State of Nevada on September 18, 2006). On May 9, 2007 FIMA Development Incorporated entered into a “Share Exchange Agreement” with Fishing Buddy Inc. (FBI), another Nevada corporation. FIMA Development Incorporated agreed to sell all of their shares to FBI in exchange for Nineteen Million Five Hundred Thousand (19,500,000) shares of FBI common stock. FBI, after acquiring the stock of FIMA Development Incorporated, then filed a Corporate Resolution and Certificate of Amendment with the State of Nevada on May 10, 2007 to change the Corporation’s name to FIMA, Inc. (the “Company” or “FIMA”). FIMA’s primary business was that of real estate development and acquisition, with a focus on resort regions in Central America and Mexico.

 

Basis of Presentation

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting as generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company maintains cash balances in non-interest-bearing accounts, which do not currently exceed federally insured limits. For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents.

 

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value, using the first-in, first-out convention. Inventories consist of raw materials and finished goods. As of December 31, 2017, and 2016, the Company had inventories of $31,338 and $57,585, respectively.

 

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Equipment held under capital leases are stated at the present value of minimum lease payments less accumulated amortization.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Under FASB ASC 820-10-05, the Financial Accounting Standards Board establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement reaffirms that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements as reflected herein. The carrying amounts of cash, prepaid expenses and accrued expenses reported on the balance sheet are estimated by management to approximate fair value primarily due to the short term nature of the instruments.

 

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share

The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss adjusted on an “as if converted” basis, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potential dilutive securities. For the periods presented, potential dilutive securities had an anti-dilutive effect and were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share.

 

 

 

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

 

Revenue Recognition

Sales on fixed price contracts are recorded when services are earned, the earnings process is complete or substantially complete, and the revenue is measurable and collectability is reasonably assured. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company defers any revenue from sales in which payment has been received, but the earnings process has not occurred. Amounts billed in advance of the period in which service is rendered are recorded as a liability under “Deferred revenues”.

 

Advertising and Promotion

All costs associated with advertising and promoting products are expensed as incurred. These expenses were $75,230 and $184,234 for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

Under FASB ASC 718-10-30-2, all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative. The Company’s stock based compensation expense was $98,200 and $242,300 for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

Common Stock Split

On September 12, 2017 we declared a reverse split of our common stock. The formula provided that every two hundred and fifty-five (255) issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Corporation be automatically split into one (1) share of common stock. Except as otherwise noted, all share, option and warrant numbers have been restated to give retroactive effect to this split. All per share disclosures retroactively reflect post-split shares.

 

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is provided for significant deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not, that such asset will not be recovered through future operations.

 

Uncertain Tax Positions

In accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”), the Company recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be capable of withstanding examination by the taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. These standards prescribe a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. These standards also provide guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition.

 

Various taxing authorities periodically audit the Company’s income tax returns. These audits include questions regarding the Company’s tax filing positions, including the timing and amount of deductions and the allocation of income to various tax jurisdictions. In evaluating the exposures connected with these various tax filing positions, including state and local taxes, the Company records allowances for probable exposures. A number of years may elapse before a particular matter, for which an allowance has been established, is audited and fully resolved. The Company has not yet undergone an examination by any taxing authorities.

 

The assessment of the Company’s tax position relies on the judgment of management to estimate the exposures associated with the Company’s various filing positions.

 

 

 

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2017-09, Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting. ASU 2017-09, which provides guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. Per ASU 2017-9, an entity should account for the effects of a modification unless all the following are met: (1) the fair value (or calculated value or intrinsic value, if such an alternative measurement method is used) of the modified award is the same as the fair value (or calculated value or intrinsic value, if such an alternative measurement method is used) of the original award immediately before the original award is modified. If the modification does not affect any of the inputs to the valuation technique that the entity uses to value the award, the entity is not required to estimate the value immediately before and after the modification, (2) the vesting conditions of the modified award are the same as the vesting conditions of the original award immediately before the original award is modified, and (3) the classification of the modified award as an equity instrument or a liability instrument is the same as the classification of the original award immediately before the original award is modified. The current disclosure requirements in Topic 718 apply regardless of whether an entity is required to apply modification accounting under the amendments in ASU 2017-9. ASU 2017-9 is effective for public business entities for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period, for (1) public business entities for reporting periods for which financial statements have not yet been issued and (2) all other entities for reporting periods for which financial statements have not yet been made available for issuance. The amendments in this ASU should be applied prospectively to an award modified on or after the adoption date. The adoption of ASU 2017-9 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements or related disclosures.

 

No other new accounting pronouncements, issued or effective during the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, have had or are expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

 

Note 2 – Going Concern

 

As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has insufficient cash on hand, a working capital deficit of $2,012,141 and incurred net losses from operations resulting in an accumulated deficit of $7,114,769, and used $326,929 of cash from operations during the year ended December 31, 2017. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company is currently seeking additional sources of capital to fund short term operations. The Company, however, is dependent upon its ability to secure equity and/or debt financing and there are no assurances that the Company will be successful; therefore, without sufficient financing it would be unlikely for the Company to continue as a going concern.

 

The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of any uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements also do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 5 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Under FASB ASC 820-10-5, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). The standard outlines a valuation framework and creates a fair value hierarchy in order to increase the consistency and comparability of fair value measurements and the related disclosures. Under GAAP, certain assets and liabilities must be measured at fair value, and FASB ASC 820-10-50 details the disclosures that are required for items measured at fair value.

 

The Company has certain financial instruments that must be measured under the new fair value standard. The Company’s financial assets and liabilities are measured using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. The three levels are as follows:

 

Level 1 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

 

Level 2 - Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).

 

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that reflect our assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

 

The following schedule summarizes the valuation of financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis in the balance sheets as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively:

In accordance with ASC 470-20 Debt with Conversion and Other Options, the Company recorded total discounts of $115,531 and $251,177 for the variable conversion features of the convertible debts incurred during the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The discounts are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the debentures using the effective interest method. The Company recorded $110,129 and $252,035 of interest expense pursuant to the amortization of the note discounts during the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

The shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes listed above will be restricted securities as defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933. The terms of each convertible note placed a “maximum share amount” on the note holder that can be owned as a result of the conversions to common stock by the note holder of 4.99% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company.

 

In accordance with ASC 815-15, the Company determined that the variable conversion feature and shares to be issued represented embedded derivative features, and these are shown as derivative liabilities on the balance sheet. The Company calculated the fair value of the compound embedded derivatives associated with the convertible debentures utilizing a lattice model.

 

The Company recognized interest expense for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, as follows:

Note 9 – Derivative Liabilities

 

As discussed in Note 7 under Convertible Notes Payable, the Company issued debts that consist of the issuance of convertible notes with variable conversion provisions. The conversion terms of the convertible notes are variable based on certain factors, such as the future price of the Company’s common stock. The number of shares of common stock to be issued is based on the future price of the Company’s common stock. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the promissory note is indeterminate. Due to the fact that the number of shares of common stock issuable could exceed the Company’s authorized share limit, the equity environment is tainted and all additional convertible debentures and warrants are included in the value of the derivative. Pursuant to ASC 815-15 Embedded Derivatives, the fair values of the variable conversion option and warrants and shares to be issued were recorded as derivative liabilities on the issuance date.

 

The fair values of the Company’s derivative liabilities were estimated at the issuance date and are revalued at each subsequent reporting date, using a lattice model. The Company recognized current derivative liabilities of $837,272 and $249,800 at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The change in fair value of the derivative liabilities resulted in a loss of $533,566 and a gain of $209,275 for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, which has been reported within other expense in the statements of operations.

 

The following is a summary of changes in the fair market value of the derivative liability during the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively:

Key inputs and assumptions used to value the convertible debentures issued during the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016:

 

-          Stock price ranging from $0.0001 to $0.0000271 during these periods would fluctuate with projected volatility.

-          The notes convert with variable conversion prices and fixed conversion prices (tainted notes).

-          An event of default would occur -0-% of the time, increasing 1% per month to a maximum of 20%.

-          The projected annual volatility curve for each valuation period was based on the historical annual volatility of the company in the range of 180.5% - 592.5%.

-          The Company would redeem the notes -0-% of the time, increasing 1% per month to a maximum of 5%.

-          All notes are assumed to be extended at maturity by 3 months – the time required to convert out this volume of stock.

-          The holders of the securities would automatically convert midway through to maturity on a monthly basis based on ownership and trading volume limitations.

-          A change of control and fundamental transaction would occur initially -0-% of the time and increase monthly by -0-% to a maximum of -0-%.

Note 11 – Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC 740-10, which requires use of the liability method. FASB ASC 740-10-25 provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes, referred to as temporary differences.

 

For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company incurred net operating losses and, accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been recorded. In addition, no benefit for income taxes has been recorded due to the uncertainty of the realization of any tax assets. At December 31,  2017  and  2016,  the  Company  had approximately $1,985,000 and $1,485,000 of federal net operating losses, respectively. The historical federal net operating loss was lost upon the subsequent merger and dissolution of FIMA, Inc. The net operating loss carry forwards, if not utilized, will begin to expire in 2034.

 

The components of the Company’s deferred tax asset are as follows:

 

   

December 31, 2017

   

December 31, 2016

 

Deferred tax assets:

               

Net operating loss carry forwards

  $ 694,750     $ 519,000  
                 

Net deferred tax assets before valuation allowance

  $ 694,750     $ 519,000  

Less: Valuation allowance

    (694,750

)

    (519,000

)

Net deferred tax assets

  $ -     $ -  

 

 

 

Based on the available objective evidence, including the Company’s history of losses, management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets will not be fully realizable. Accordingly, the Company provided for a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

 

A reconciliation between the amounts of income tax benefit determined by applying the applicable U.S. and state statutory income tax rate to pre-tax loss is as follows:

 

   

December 31,

   

December 31,

 
   

2017

Federal and state statutory rate

    35

%

    35

%

Change in valuation allowance on deferred tax assets

    (35

%)

    (35

%)

 

In accordance with FASB ASC 740, the Company has evaluated its tax positions and determined there are no uncertain tax positions.

 

Note 12 – Commitments and Contingencies

 

Legal Proceedings

The Company may be subject to legal proceedings and claims arising from contracts or other matters from time to time in the ordinary course of business.

Settlement Agreement

In April of 2017, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with regard to disputed compensation owed to a former employee. Pursuant to the settlement agreement, the Company is to pay a total of $72,000 over eight (8) monthly payments of $9,000 commencing on April 28, 2017. The Company President made a payment of $9,000 on April 27, 2017, this amount is included in loan payable related party as of December 31, 2017. During 2017, seven (7) of the payments were missed and the Company accrued an additional $3,500 of late fee penalties in accordance with the agreement. The late fee penalties and settlement liability are included in accrued expenses as of December 31, 2017.

Notes to Financial Statements

 

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

 

Business

International Spirits & Beverage Group, Inc. (“ISBG”) was formed under the laws of the State of Texas on September 12, 2014. In March 2015, ISBG merged with and into FIMA, Inc., a Nevada corporation, with FIMA, Inc. being the surviving entity. FIMA, Inc. then changed its corporate name to International Spirits and Beverage Group, Inc., and remains a Nevada corporation. (Formerly FIMA Development Incorporated, which was formed under the laws of the State of Nevada on September 18, 2006). On May 9, 2007 FIMA Development Incorporated entered into a “Share Exchange Agreement” with Fishing Buddy Inc. (FBI), another Nevada corporation. FIMA Development Incorporated agreed to sell all their shares to FBI in exchange for Nineteen Million Five Hundred Thousand (19,500,000) shares of FBI common stock. FBI, after acquiring the stock of FIMA Development Incorporated, then filed a Corporate Resolution and Certificate of Amendment with the State of Nevada on May 10, 2007 to change the Corporation’s name to FIMA, Inc. (the “Company” or “FIMA”). FIMA’s primary business was that of real estate development and acquisition, with a focus on resort regions in Central America and Mexico.

 

Basis of Presentation

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting as generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company maintains cash balances in non-interest-bearing accounts, which do not currently exceed federally insured limits. For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents.

 

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value, using the first-in, first-out convention. Inventories consist of raw materials and finished goods. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company had inventories of $31,338.

 

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Equipment held under capital leases are stated at the present value of minimum lease payments less accumulated amortization.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Under FASB ASC 820-10-05, the Financial Accounting Standards Board establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement reaffirms that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements as reflected herein. The carrying amounts of cash, prepaid expenses and accrued expenses reported on the balance sheet are estimated by management to approximate fair value primarily due to the short-term nature of the instruments.

 

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share

The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss adjusted on an “as if converted” basis, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potential dilutive securities. For the periods presented, potential dilutive securities had an anti-dilutive effect and were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share.

Sales on fixed price contracts are recorded when services are earned, the earnings process is complete or substantially complete, and the revenue is measurable, and collectability is reasonably assured. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company defers any revenue from sales in which payment has been received, but the earnings process has not occurred. Amounts billed in advance of the period in which service is rendered are recorded as a liability under “Deferred revenues”.

 

Advertising and Promotion

All costs associated with advertising and promoting products are expensed as incurred. These expenses were $19,239 and $19,944 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively; advertising and promotion expense was $21,569 and $42,659 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

Under FASB ASC 718-10-30-2, all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative. The Company’s stock-based compensation expense was $0 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017; stock based compensation expense was $0 and $98,200 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

 

Common Stock Split

On September 12, 2017 the company declared a reverse split of its common stock. The formula provided that every two hundred and fifty-five (255) issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Corporation be automatically split into one (1) share of common stock. Except as otherwise noted, all share, option and warrant numbers have been restated to give retroactive effect to this split. All per share disclosures retroactively reflect post-split shares.

 

Income Taxes

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is provided for significant deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not, that such asset will not be recovered through future operations.

 

Uncertain Tax Positions

In accordance with ASC 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”), the Company recognizes the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be capable of withstanding examination by the taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. These standards prescribe a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. These standards also provide guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition.

 

Various taxing authorities periodically audit the Company’s income tax returns. These audits include questions regarding the Company’s tax filing positions, including the timing and amount of deductions and the allocation of income to various tax jurisdictions. In evaluating the exposures connected with these various tax filing positions, including state and local taxes, the Company records allowances for probable exposures. A number of years may elapse before a particular matter, for which an allowance has been established, is audited and fully resolved. The Company has not yet undergone an examination by any taxing authorities.

 

The assessment of the Company’s tax position relies on the judgment of management to estimate the exposures associated with the Company’s various filing positions.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2017-09, Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting. ASU 2017-09, which provides guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. Per ASU 2017-9, an entity should account for the effects of a modification unless all the following are met: (1) the fair value (or calculated value or intrinsic value, if such an alternative measurement method is used) of the modified award is the same as the fair value (or calculated value or intrinsic value, if such an alternative measurement method is used) of the original award immediately before the original award is modified. If the modification does not affect any of the inputs to the valuation technique that the entity uses to value the award, the entity is not required to estimate the value immediately before and after the modification, (2) the vesting conditions of the modified award are the same as the vesting conditions of the original award immediately before the original award is modified, and (3) the classification of the modified award as an equity instrument or a liability instrument is the same as the classification of the original award immediately before the original award is modified. The current disclosure requirements in Topic 718 apply regardless of whether an entity is required to apply modification accounting under the amendments in ASU 2017-9. ASU 2017-9 is effective for public business entities for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in any interim period, for (1) public business entities for reporting periods for which financial statements have not yet been issued and (2) all other entities for reporting periods for which financial statements have not yet been made available for issuance. The amendments in this ASU should be applied prospectively to an award modified on or after the adoption date. The adoption of ASU 2017-9 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements or related disclosures.

 

No other new accounting pronouncements, issued or effective during the periods ended June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, have had or are expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

 

Note 2 – Going Concern

 

As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has insufficient cash on hand, a working capital deficit of $4,595,548 and incurred net losses from operations resulting in an accumulated deficit of $10,354,583, and used $213,284 of cash in operations during the six months ended June 30, 2018. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company is currently seeking additional sources of capital to fund short term operations. The Company, however, is dependent upon its ability to secure equity and/or debt financing and there are no assurances that the Company will be successful; therefore, without sufficient financing it would be unlikely for the Company to continue as a going concern.

 

The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of any uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements also do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Note 3 – Related Parties

 

Settlement Agreement

In April of 2017, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with regard to disputed compensation owed to a former employee.

Note 5 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Under FASB ASC 820-10-5, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). The standard outlines a valuation framework and creates a fair value hierarchy in order to increase the consistency and comparability of fair value measurements and the related disclosures. Under GAAP, certain assets and liabilities must be measured at fair value, and FASB ASC 820-10-50 details the disclosures that are required for items measured at fair value.

 

The Company has certain financial instruments that must be measured under the new fair value standard. The Company’s financial assets and liabilities are measured using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. The three levels are as follows:

 

Level 1 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

 

Level 2 - Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).

 

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that reflect our assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Note 9 – Derivative Liabilities

 

As discussed in Note 7 under Convertible Notes Payable, the Company issued debts that consist of the issuance of convertible notes with variable conversion provisions. The conversion terms of the convertible notes are variable based on certain factors, such as the future price of the Company’s common stock. The number of shares of common stock to be issued is based on the future price of the Company’s common stock. The number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the promissory note is indeterminate. Due to the fact that the number of shares of common stock issuable could exceed the Company’s authorized share limit, the equity environment is tainted, and all additional convertible debentures and warrants are included in the value of the derivative. Pursuant to ASC 815- 15 Embedded Derivatives, the fair values of the variable conversion option and warrants and shares to be issued  were recorded as derivative liabilities on the issuance date.

 

The fair values of the Company’s derivative liabilities were estimated at the issuance date and are revalued at each subsequent reporting date.  The Company recognized current derivative liabilities of $3,470,703 and $837,272 at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The change in fair value of the derivative liabilities resulted in a loss of $2,414,415 and a gain of $362,045 for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively; the change in fair value of the derivative liabilities resulted in losses of $2,863,360 and $52,601 during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2017, respectively. These gains and losses have been reported within other expense in the statements of operations.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

 

Sections 145 and 102(b)(7) of the Revised Statutes of the State of Nevada (referred to as the “NRS”) provide that a corporation may indemnify any person made a party to an action by reason of the fact that he or she was a director, executive officer, employee or agent of the corporation or is or was serving at the request of a corporation against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with such action if he or she acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful, except that, in the case of an action by or in right of the corporation, no indemnification may generally be made in respect of any claim as to which such person is adjudged to be liable to the corporation.

 

Our amended and restated articles of incorporation provide for indemnification of our directors, officers, team members, and other agents to the maximum extent permitted by the NRS, and our bylaws provide for indemnification of our directors, officers, team members, and other agents to the maximum extent permitted by the NRS.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

 

The Company has not entered into an indemnification agreement with our directors and officers.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling International Spirits pursuant to the foregoing provisions, International Spirits has been informed that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

(i)     To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

 

(ii)     reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.

 

(iii)     include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.

 

(2) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 

(3) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

 

(4) For determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the registrant; and

 

(iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the registrant to the purchaser.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
