EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

In accordance with the SEC’s Order under Section 36 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Granting Exemptions From Specified Provisions of the Exchange Act and Certain Rules Thereunder dated March 4, 2020 (Release No. 34-88318) (as modified on March 25, 2020 by Release No. 34-88465, the “Order”), the Company relied on the relief provided by the Order in connection with the filing of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 (the “Report”) due to the circumstances related to coronavirus or COVID-19. The impact of the COVID-19 outbreak has resulted in the implementation, by State and Federal authorities, of numerous measures to try to contain the virus, such as travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter in place orders, and shutdowns. In particular, the Company’s office staff members responsible for preparing and providing supporting materials and information to the third-party auditor and the Company’s third-party accountants and tax professionals are located in New York City, and COVID-19 and the resulting government measures have caused disruptions in the Company’s normal interactions with among such persons. Because of necessary actions taken by the State and Federal governments, the Company’s staff and third-party audit personnel were, at that time, and are still working remotely, which has led to a significant delay in the Company’s ability to provide relevant materials and other information to its third-party audit personnel to complete the audit for the year ended December 31, 2019. In addition, the Company filed a Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25 filed on March 30, 2020. We were unable to file this Annual Report on the extended March 14, 2020 due date because (i) of the impact of COVID-19 as disclosed above and (ii) of management’s devoting significant time and attention to assessing and responding to the impact of COVID-19.

Organizational History

 

We were incorporated in 1980 under the laws of the State of Nevada under the name of Western Exploration, Inc. Western Exploration, Inc., a Nevada corporation, was formed on July 24, 1980. In 1990, Western Exploration, Inc. changed its name to Nugget Exploration, Inc. On November 10, 1999, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nugget Exploration, Inc., Nugget Holdings Corporation merged with and into GoHealthMD, Inc., a Delaware corporation. Shortly thereafter, Nugget Exploration, Inc. changed its name to GoHealthMD, Inc. a Nevada corporation.

 

On August 18, 2004, GoHealthMD, Inc., the Nevada Corporation, changed its name to Tree Top Industries, Inc. On July 7, 2016, Tree Top Industries, Inc. changed its name to Global Tech Industries Group, Inc. GoHealthMD, Inc. continues to exist as a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Global Tech Industries Group, Inc. NetThruster, Inc. MLN, Inc., BioEnergy Applied Technologies, Inc. (BAT”), Eye Care Centers International, Inc., GoHealthMD Nano Pharmaceuticals, Inc., TTI Strategic Acquisitions and Equity Group, Inc. and TTII Oil & Gas, Inc, all were formed by Global Tech in the anticipation of technologies, products or services being acquired. G T International, Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Global Tech Industries Group, Inc., existing as a Wyoming corporation. Not all subsidiaries are currently active.

 

On December 31, 2012, Global Tech and its new subsidiary, TTII Oil & Gas, Inc., a Delaware corporation, signed a binding asset purchase agreement with American Resource Technologies, Inc. (“ARUR”), a Kansas corporation, to acquire all the assets of ARUR for a purchase price of $513,538, which was paid in the form of 4,668,530 shares of Global Tech’s common stock as described in the asset purchase agreement. The shares were valued at $0.11 per share, based on the closing trading price of the common stock on the Closing Date. The assets purchased from ARUR include a 75% working interest in oil and gas leases in Kansas, as well as other oil field assets, a natural gas pipeline, currently shut down that is also located in Kansas, 25% interest in three other business entities operating in Kansas, and accounts receivables from two companies operating in Brazil in the amounts of $3,600,000 and $3,600,000 respectively. TTII Oil & Gas, Inc. also purchased three promissory notes in the amounts of $100,000, $100,000 and $350,000, as well an overdue contract for revenue in the amount of $1,000,000. Finally, a gun sight patent was also acquired from Century Technologies, Inc. All accounts and notes receivable were deemed uncollectable due to the age and circumstances, and therefore were assessed no value in the asset purchase. The equity ownerships were also deemed to be impaired due to the inactive nature of the entities, and were not allocated any value. The gun sight patent was also not readily assessable as to value and no purchase price was allocated to this asset. Also, due to the mechanic’s lien and lawsuit on the oil leases, as well as the absence of an official reserve report, the oil lease was also impaired and no value was recorded for this asset. On September 2015, the Chautauqua County Court decided that American Resource Technologies Inc management and Board of Directors improperly acted and rendered the original Agreement a nullity. During 2019, the Company removed additional obligations related to the ARUR acquisition and settled legal fees due. The Company is continuing its efforts to legally cancel the shares issued to the ARUR shareholders.

On December 30, 2016, Global Tech Industries Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation, executed a stock purchase agreement (the “Agreement”), which was signed and closed in Hong Kong, with GoFun Group, Ltd. through its wholly owned subsidiary Go F & B Holdings, Ltd. GoFun Group, Ltd. is a privately held company running a casual dining restaurant business, based in Hong Kong. Subsequent to the agreement being signed, GoFun Group failed to substantially perform under the agreement, including, but not limited to providing audited financials of its assets, making the ongoing payments called for in the agreement, along with other matters that led Global Tech to initiate litigation in the United States. Currently, Global Tech and GoFun are litigating the matter in the U.S District Court for the Southern District of New York, Docket No.17-CV-03727. As of this writing the case has not yet been decided. . . On October 2, 2019, the Company was able to secure, via preliminary settlement, the return of 43,649,491 shares of the Company’s stock, that was issued in good faith to GoFun in anticipation of a final stock exchange. The stock has since been returned to the Company’s treasury and cancelled As of this writing, motions are pending that may require remaining negotiations to continue in arbitration.

 

On December 30, 2019, a dispute between the Company and its counsel regarding the GoFun matter, above, resulted in a filing, and subsequent settlement, of an action in the Supreme Court of the State of New York for the County of New York (Index No. 656396/2019). Pursuant to the settlement, counsel for the company accepted previously-issued shares as full payment for all legal work, expenses, costs, and other fees.

 

Research and Development

 

Although Global Tech’s staff is limited, it continues to monitor new developments and any emerging technologies.

 

Intellectual Property

 

With the acquisition of BAT, Global Tech acquired fifteen (15) intellectual properties pertaining to the construction of the mobile configuration and operation of the glyd-arc medical waste destruction unit, as well as an enhanced configuration and novel method for coal gasification.

 

There is currently no use or activity involving the intellectual properties of the Company, and accordingly, there is no recorded value assigned to these assets.

 

Government Regulation

 

BAT

 

According to the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”), no registration of the BAT system is required because the waste destruction process does not involve incineration. Incineration processes are subject to regulation by the EPA. However, any hazardous waste destruction system that is constructed will be subject to the state laws and regulations where the system is located, as well as any regulations pertaining to the storage, transporting and/or destroying hazardous waste. BAT is also subject to government laws and regulations governing health, safety, working conditions, employee relations, wrongful termination, wages, taxes and other matters applicable to businesses in general. The Company currently has no plans to manufacture, sell, or use any BAT-related systems.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

 

Currently, GTII does not lease, rent or own any property, other than its office which acts only as a mail receipt center.

 

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

During March 2013, the Company was named in an action pertaining to the 75% working interest in the Ownbey Lease. Subsequent to the Company’s purchase of the assets and the termination of the operator, a mechanics lien was filed against the property claiming approximately $267,000 in fees are due to the previous operator. An action commenced in the District Court of Chautauqua County, Kansas, captioned Aesir Energy, Inc. vs. American Resource Technologies, Inc.; Nancy Ownbey Archer; Jimmy Stephen Ownbey; Robbie Faye Butts; Global Tech Industries Group, Inc. and TTII oil & Gas, Inc. In February 2017, the Chautauqua Court ruled that the acquisition agreement be nullified. All assets and liabilities were removed from the companies’ books including an asset retirement obligation of $101,250 that was associated with the oil and gas property. No other monetary claims have been asserted against GTII or TTII Oil & Gas, Inc

 

On February 3, 2017, the Company filed suit in Eastern District Federal Court New York against American Resource Technologies, Inc., (ARUR) and several directors and officers relating to the Chautauqua County Court Kansas decision nullifying the acquisition Agreement of ARUR. The Company has made several attempts to recover the shares of GTII stock paid to ARUR for the asset acquisition and the various costs and expenses expended by GTII in fulfillment of its obligations under the contract with ARUR. The failure of non-litigation attempts to resolve the matter resulted in filing an action for declaratory judgment in the US District Court for the Eastern District of New York, Docket No. 17-CV-0698. The case was subsequently withdrawn due to the close of ARUR operations. The Company is continuing its efforts to legally cancel the shares issued to the ARUR shareholders.

 

On December 30, 2016, the Company executed a stock purchase agreement (the “Agreement”), which was signed and closed in Hong Kong, with GoFun Group, Ltd. through its wholly owned subsidiary Go F & B Holdings, Ltd.

On October 2, 2019, the Company was able to secure, via preliminary settlement, the return of 43,649,491 shares of the Company’s stock, that was issued in good faith to GoFun in anticipation of a final stock exchange. The stock has since been returned to the Company’s treasury and cancelled. The Company also reclassified a deposit received from GoFun shareholders in the amount of $128,634 for future share issuances pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement, to a Gain on Settlements and Debt Relief as part of the legal settlement of this case. As of this writing, motions are pending that may require remaining negotiations to continue in arbitration.

.

On December 30, 2019, a dispute between the Company and its counsel regarding the GoFun matter, above, resulted in a filing, and subsequent settlement, of an action in the Supreme Court of the State of New York for the County of New York (Index No. 656396/2019).

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Cautionary Statements

 

This Form 10-K may contain “forward-looking statements,” as that term is used in federal securities laws, about Global Tech’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations and business. These statements include, among others:

 

statements concerning the potential benefits that may be experienced from business activities and certain transactions contemplated or completed; and
   
statements of our expectations, beliefs, future plans and strategies, anticipated developments and other matters that are not historical facts. These statements may be made expressly in this Form 10-K. You can find many of these statements by looking for words such as “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “opines,” or similar expressions used in this Form 10-K. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results to be materially different from any future results expressed or implied in those statements. The most important facts that could prevent us from achieving our stated goals include, but are not limited to, the following:

 

a) volatility or decline of Global Tech’s stock price;
   
b) potential fluctuation of quarterly results;
   
c) failure to earn revenues or profits;
   
d) inadequate capital to continue or expand our business, and inability to raise additional capital or financing to implement our business plans;
   
e) failure to commercialize our technology or to make sales;
   
f) decline in demand for our products and services;
   
g) rapid adverse changes in markets;
   
h) litigation with or legal claims and allegations by outside parties against GTII, including but not limited to challenges to intellectual property rights;
   
i) insufficient revenues to cover operating costs; and
   
J) inability to make a business acquisition that is profitable for the Company and its shareholders.

 

There is no assurance that we will be profitable, we may not be able to successfully develop, manage or market our products and services, we may not be able to attract and retain qualified executives and technology personnel, we may not be able to obtain customers for our products or services, our products and services may become obsolete, government regulation may hinder our business, additional dilution in outstanding stock ownership may be incurred due to the issuance of more shares, warrants and stock options, or the exercise of outstanding warrants and stock options, and other risks inherent in our businesses.

 

 9 

 

Because the statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. We caution you not to place undue reliance on the statements, which speak only as of the date of this Form 10-K. The cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section should be considered in connection with any subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements that we or persons acting on our behalf may issue. We do not undertake any obligation to review or confirm analysts’ expectations or estimates or to release publicly any revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Form 10K, or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

 

PLAN OF OPERATIONS

 

With the suspension of the Company’s oil operation, and the legal ruling that the oil properties were no longer the property of GTII, the Company has sought other potential business opportunities. The Company continues to investigate the potential acquisitions of other opportunities in order to secure sufficient operations to support its administrative expenses and to enable the Company to earn profits and achieve positive cash flow. It will continue to do so in 2020.

 

This plan is totally dependent on the Chairman, David Reichman’s continued support, as well as our ability to raise capital. Execution of the business plan is subject to this constraint as well as the finding of sufficient funding.

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

During the 2019 year, we generated revenues of $0, compared to $0 for 2018. Our total operating expenses decreased from $3,220,698 in 2018 to $1,861,764 in 2019. The decrease was primarily the result of the decrease in share price and value of the share-based compensation issued to various individuals, professional, and management for services provided in 2019. General and administrative expenses decreased from $1,898,940 in 2018 to $992,865 in 2019, a decrease of $906,076 due mostly to the decrease in share-based compensation. Depreciation expense decreased to $0 from $362 the prior year.

 

Our net loss decreased by $1,940,505 to $1,428,835 in 2019 from $3,369,340 in 2018. This translates to a $.01 increase in loss per share.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

At December 31, 2019, we had cash on hand of $1,435 compared to $7,819 at December 31, 2018. We used cash in our operations of $223,597 in 2019 compared to $287,673 in 2018, a 29% decrease. However, we raised net $10,977 and $174,947 from related party loans in 2019 and 2018, respectively. We anticipate that we will continue to have a decrease in our cash flow from continuing operations of approximately $10,000 per month for 2020. We do not have sufficient cash on hand at December 31, 2019 to cover our negative cash flow. We will attempt to increase our operating activities and possibly raise capital through the sale of our common stock or through debt financing.

 

 10 

 

Some of Global Tech’s past due obligations, including $338,000 of accounts payable, and $113,000 of notes payable and judgments, some of which are duplicative, were incurred or obtained prior to 2005. No actions have been taken by any of the applicable creditors. Action by any such creditor would materially decrease our liquidity. Global Tech has no credit facilities with which to resolve these outstanding obligations from prior years, but will attempt to fully resolve them upon a successful capital raise and monetary action of the business. This may have a negative impact on our future liquidity in the event we must prioritize the repayment of these obligations when capital becomes available. In December 2019, the officers of the Company converted accrued wages and expenses of $2,179,449 and cash advances of $400,224 into notes payable of $2,579,673. These notes are due in July 2021. Global Tech shall attempt to cause these officers and Directors to request repayment in a way as to not materially harm the Company’s liquidity.

 

Any remedy to our current lack of liquidity must take into account all the foregoing liabilities. Global Tech intends to continue its pursuit to raise capital in order to monetize its business and pay all its liabilities. Capital raise plans are under consideration but it cannot be assured that they will materialize in the current economic environment. Currently, Global Tech is without adequate financing or assets. Because no actions have been taken on the aforementioned past due obligations and demand has not been made by the applicable officers or Directors, we are unable to accurately quantify the effect the overdue accounts have on Global Tech’s financial condition, liquidity and capital resources. However, in the event that all of these obligations and notes payable were required to be paid in an amount equal to the full balance of each, Global Tech would not be able to meet the obligations based upon its current financial status. The liquidity shortfall of $2,166,033 would cause Global Tech to default and, further, would put our continued viability in jeopardy.

 

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

 

None

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. These principles require us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, cash flow and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Our estimates include those related to revenue recognition, accounts receivable reserves, income and other taxes, stock-based compensation and equipment and contingent obligations. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and our actual results, our future financial statements will be affected.

 

We define our “critical accounting policies” as those U.S. generally accepted accounting principles that require us to make subjective estimates about matters that are uncertain and are likely to have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations as well as the specific manner in which we apply those principles. Our estimates are based upon assumptions and judgments about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimate is made and applied and require us to continually assess a range of potential outcomes. A detailed discussion of the critical accounting policies that most affect our company is located in Footnote 2 of the notes to our financial statements.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2019 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Consideration of the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1, the Company has incurred significant accumulated deficits, recurring operating losses and a negative working capital. This and other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also discussed in Note1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audit. 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 audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated 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 audit, 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 audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements. Our audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

  

Restatement of Prior Year

 

As discussed in Note 12, the December 31, 2018 consolidated financial statements have been restated to correct a misstatement.

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

 

Global Tech Industries Group, Inc.

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Global Tech Industries Group, Inc. as of December 31, 2018 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the year then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

 

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

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Global Tech Industries Group, Inc. at December 31, 2018, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1, the Company has incurred significant accumulated deficits, recurring operating losses and a negative working capital. This and other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also discussed in Note 1.

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

A) ORGANIZATIONAL HISTORY

 

We were incorporated in 1980 under the laws of the State of Nevada under the name of Western Exploration, Inc. Western Exploration, Inc., a Nevada corporation, was formed on July 24, 1980. In 1990, Western Exploration, Inc. changed its name to Nugget Exploration, Inc. On November 10, 1999, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nugget Exploration, Inc., Nugget Holdings Corporation, merged with and into GoHealthMD, Inc., a Delaware corporation. Shortly thereafter, Nugget Exploration, Inc. changed its name to GoHealthMD, Inc. a Nevada corporation.

 

On August 18, 2004, GoHealthMD, Inc., the Nevada Corporation, changed its name to Tree Top Industries, Inc. On July 7, 2016, Tree Top Industries, Inc. changed its name to Global Tech Industries Group, Inc. TTI Strategic Acquisitions and Equity Group, Inc. and TTII Oil & Gas, Inc, all were formed by Global Tech in the anticipation of technologies, products or services being acquired. G T International, Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Global Tech Industries Group, Inc., existing as a Wyoming corporation. TTI Strategic Acquisitions is the only subsidiary with current financial activity.

 

On December 31, 2012, Global Tech and its new subsidiary, TTII Oil & Gas, Inc., a Delaware corporation, signed a binding asset purchase agreement with American Resource Technologies, Inc. (“ARUR”), a Kansas corporation, to acquire all the assets of ARUR for a purchase price of $513,538, which was paid in the form of 4,668,530 shares of Global Tech’s common stock as described in the asset purchase agreement. The shares were valued at $0.11 per share, based on the closing trading price of the common stock on the Closing Date. The assets purchased from ARUR include a 75% working interest in oil and gas leases in Kansas, as well as other oil field assets, a natural gas pipeline, currently shut down that is also located in Kansas, 25% interest in three other business entities operating in Kansas, and accounts receivables from two companies operating in Brazil in the amounts of $3,600,000 and $3,600,000 respectively. TTII Oil & Gas, Inc. also purchased three promissory notes in the amounts of $100,000, $100,000 and $350,000, as well an overdue contract for revenue in the amount of $1,000,000. Finally, a gun sight patent was also acquired from Century Technologies, Inc. All accounts and notes receivable were deemed uncollectable due to the age and circumstances, and therefore were assessed no value in the asset purchase. The equity ownerships were also deemed to be impaired due to the inactive nature of the entities, and were not allocated any value. The gun sight patent was also not readily assessable as to value and no purchase price was allocated to this asset. Also, due to the mechanic’s lien and lawsuit on the oil leases, as well as the absence of an official reserve report, the oil lease was also impaired and no value was recorded for this asset. On September 2015, the Chautauqua County Court decided that American Resource Technologies Inc management and Board of Directors improperly acted and rendered the original Agreement a nullity. During 2019, the Company removed additional obligations related to the ARUR acquisition and settled legal fees due. The Company is continuing its efforts to legally cancel the shares issued to the ARUR shareholders.

 

 18 

 

On December 30, 2016, Global Tech Industries Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation, executed a stock purchase agreement (the “Agreement”), which was signed and closed in Hong Kong, with GoFun Group, Ltd. through its wholly owned subsidiary Go F & B Holdings, Ltd. GoFun Group, Ltd. is a privately held company running a casual dining restaurant business, based in Hong Kong. Subsequent to the agreement being signed, GoFun Group failed to substantially perform under the agreement, including, but not limited to providing audited financials of its assets, making the ongoing payments called for in the agreement, along with other matters that led Global Tech to initiate litigation in the United States. Currently, Global Tech and GoFun are litigating the matter in the U.S District Court for the southern district of New York. During the last quarter of 2019, the Company was able to secure, via preliminary settlement, the return of 43,649,491 shares of the Company’s stock, that were issued in good faith to GoFun in anticipation of a final stock exchange. In August 2019, the stock was returned to the Company’s treasury and cancelled. As of this writing, motions are pending that may require remaining negotiations to continue in arbitration. 

 

On December 30, 2019, a dispute between the Company and its counsel regarding the GoFun matter, above, resulted in a filing, and settlement in January 2020, of an action in the Supreme Court of the State of New York for the County of New York (Index No. 656396/2019). Pursuant to the settlement, prior counsel for the Company accepted previously-issued shares as full payment for all legal work, expenses, costs, and other fees.

B) GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company incurred a net loss of $1,428,835 during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 and has an accumulated deficit of $167,624,703 at December 31, 2019. The Company also had negative working capital of $2,166,033 and $5,285,594 at December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and negative cash flow from operations of $223,597 and $287,673, respectively for the years then ended.

 

During 2013, the Company generated significant revenues and left the exploration stage, however, the Company did not generate any revenues during the years ended December 31, 2019 or 2018, and its cash flows are not sufficient enough to support all expenses of the Company. The Company as yet, still requires substantial financing. Most of the financing has been provided by David Reichman, the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman. The Company is dependent upon his ability and willingness to continue to provide the financing necessary to meet reporting and filing requirements of a public company.

 

In order for the Company to remain a going concern, it will need to continue to receive funds from equity or debt financing and secure operating revenues. There can be no assurance that the Company will continue to receive any proceeds from equity offerings or that the Company will be able to obtain the necessary funds to finance its operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a coronavirus (COVID-19) a pandemic. As a result, economic uncertainties have arisen which have the potential to negatively impact the Company’s ability to raise funding from the markets. Other financial impact could occur though such potential impact is unknown at this time.

 

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

A) PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Ludicrous, Inc., , TTI Strategic Acquisitions and Equity Group, Inc, TTII Oil & Gas, Inc., and G T International, Inc. All subsidiaries of the Company, other than TTI Strategic Acquisitions and Equity Group, Inc., currently have no financial activity. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.

 

B) USE OF MANAGEMENT’S ESTIMATES

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These financial statements have material estimates for valuation of stock and option transactions, and asset retirement obligations associated with the oil and gas operations.

 

C) CASH EQUIVALENTS

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are maintained with major financial institutions in the U S. Deposits held with these banks at times exceed $250,000 of insurance provided on such deposits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes that it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents. At December 31, 2019 and 2018, no excess existed. There were no cash equivalents at December 31, 2019 and 2018.

 

 20 

 

D) FIXED ASSETS

 

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, ranging from 3 to 7 years for furniture, fixtures, machinery and equipment. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the term of the lease or the economic life of the asset. Routine repairs and maintenance are expensed when incurred.

 

E) INCOME TAXES

 

The Company applies ASC 740 which requires the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. The asset and liability method require that the current or deferred tax consequences of all events recognized in the financial statements are measured by applying the provisions of enacted tax laws to determine the amount of taxes payable or refundable currently or in future years. Deferred tax assets are reviewed for recoverability and the Company records a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be recovered.

 

The Company adopted ASC 740 at the beginning of fiscal year 2008. This interpretation requires recognition and measurement of uncertain tax positions using a “more-likely-than-not” approach, requiring the recognition and measurement of uncertain tax positions. The adoption of ASC 740 had no material impact on the Company’s financial statements. Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all the deferred tax assets will to be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

 

F) REVENUE RECOGNITION

 

The Company currently has no source of revenue, however, if and when such revenues can be generated again, we will recognize revenues in accordance with ASC 606 Revenue from contracts with customers. Revenue is recognized when control of our products are transferred to our customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those products. The Company does not have any significant financing components as payment is received at or shortly after point of sale. The Company currently has no sales and no performance obligations. If we subsequently determine that collection from that customer is not reasonably assured, we record an allowance for doubtful accounts and bad debt expense for all that customer’s unpaid invoices and cease recognizing revenue for continued services provided until cash is received.

 

G) STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718. ASC 718 requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on the grant-date fair value of the award. That cost will be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the reward- known as the requisite service period. No compensation cost is recognized for equity instruments for which employees do not render the requisite service. The grant-date fair value of employee share options and similar instruments are estimated using the Black Scholes option-pricing model adjusted for the unique characteristics of those instruments.

 

 21 

 

Equity instruments issued to non-employees are recorded at their fair values as determined in accordance with ASC 718 as amended by ASU 2018-07. As such, the grant date is the measurement date of an award’s fair value.

 

H) INTANGIBLE ASSETS AND BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

 

The Company adopted ASC 805, “Business Combinations,” and ASC 350, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”. ASC 805 requires the use of the purchase method of accounting for any business combinations initiated after June 30, 2002, and further clarifies the criteria to recognize intangible assets separately from goodwill. Under ASC 350, goodwill and indefinite−life intangible assets are no longer amortized, but are reviewed for impairment annually.

 

With the acquisition of BAT, Global Tech acquired fifteen (15) intellectual properties pertaining to the construction of the mobile configuration and operation of the glyd-arc medical waste destruction unit, as well as an enhanced configuration and novel method for coal gasification. These intangibles have an undefined life as the intellectual property has yet to be commercialized. However, because there are no comparable properties, and because there is no cash-flow being generated from these intangibles, the Company recorded an impairment of the entire capitalized value of $2,275,000 on December 31, 2009.

 

I) FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

On January 1, 2008, the Company adopted ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements” ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The three levels are defined as follows:

 

  [  ] Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
     
  [  ] Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
     
  [  ] Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair measurement.

 

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, and current liabilities each qualify as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest. The carrying value of notes payable approximates fair value because negotiated terms and conditions are consistent with current market rates as of December 31, 2019 and 2018.

 

Marketable securities are reported at the quoted and listed market rates of the securities held at the year end.

J) BASIC AND DILUTED EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE

 

The Company calculates earnings (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, “Computation of Earnings Per Share.” Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share gives effect to dilutive convertible securities, options, warrants and other potential common stock outstanding during the period; only in periods in which such effect is dilutive. For 2019 and 2018, there were no common stock equivalents.

K) RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

 

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the new accounting standard for Financial Instruments as contained in ASC 321, which requires equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. The adoption of this guidance resulted in a $149,209 increase to beginning retained earnings and a $149,209 decrease to beginning accumulated other comprehensive income. The Company determines the fair value of its equity securities using readily determinable fair values listed on the stock exchanges.

NOTE 6 - INCOME TAXES

 

The Company follows the provisions of FASB ASC 740-10 “Uncertainty in Income Taxes”. This standard requires a company to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based upon the technical merits of the position. If the more-likely-than-not threshold is met, a company must measure the tax position to determine the amount to recognize in the financial statements. As a result of the implementation of this standard, the Company performed a review of its material tax positions in accordance with recognition and measurement standards established by FASB ASC 740-10.

 

Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

 

Deferred tax assets and the valuation account are as follows:

The Company has adopted FASB ASC 740-10 to account for income taxes. The Company currently has no issues creating timing differences that would mandate deferred tax expense. Net operating losses would create possible tax assets in future years. Due to the uncertainty of the utilization of net operating loss carry forwards, an evaluation allowance has been made to the extent of any tax benefit that net operating losses may generate. A provision for income taxes has not been made due to net operating loss carry-forwards of $15,147,119 and $14,702,094 as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, which may be offset against future taxable income. No tax benefit has been reported in the financial statements.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:

Beginning balance  $-   $- 
Additions based on tax positions related to current year   -    - 
Additions for tax positions of prior years   -    - 
Reductions for tax positions of prior years   -    - 
Reductions in benefit due to income tax expense   -    - 
Ending balance  $-   $- 

 

The Company did not have any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease within the next 12 months.

 

The Company includes interest and penalties arising from the underpayment of income taxes in the consolidated statements of operations in the provision for income taxes. As of December 31, 2019, and 2018, the Company had no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

 

The tax years that remain subject to examination by major taxing jurisdictions are for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015 and 2014.

D) 2007 OMNIBUS STOCK AND INCENTIVE PLAN

 

On September 24, 2007, the Board of Directors authorized the creation of the 2007 Omnibus Stock and Incentive Plan (the “2007 Plan”). The 2007 Plan was approved by the stockholders on November 28, 2007. An aggregate of 60,000 shares of common stock are reserved for issuance and available for awards under the 2007 Plan.

 

 33 

 

Awards under the 2007 Plan may include non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted shares of common stock, restricted units and performance awards. For a complete description of the Plan, see Global Tech’s Form 8-K filed with the SEC on November 7, 2007.

 

E) UNEARNED ESOP SHARES

 

Effective January 1, 2009, the Company organized the Tree Top Industries Profit-Sharing Plan Trust, to manage the Company’s Employee Stock Option Profit-Sharing Plan (“the Plan”). On November 13, 2018 the Trust name was changed to Global Tech Industries Group Profit Sharing Plan Trust. At the direction of the Board of Directors, the Company annually issues shares to the Trust for the future benefit of the employees of the Company. The plan allows the Board of Directors to issue shares to the Trust annually to be allocated to the participants.

 

The Plan was organized consistent with the requirements of Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, however, the Plan has not been administered as a qualified retirement plan, and therefore, the shares issued to the ESOP have not been deducted for federal tax purposes. The employee group is a Top Heavy group of Key Employees, however, the plan will also cover all employees that are eligible. Eligibility occurs for each employee that is employed on the anniversary date of the Plan. Participation shall cease upon the termination of the employee services, on account of death, disability, retirement or the separation from the employer. Each year the Employer shall contribute either cash or stock of the Corporation, an amount to the Plan as shall be determined by the Board of Directors. The contributions vest as follows:

 

  For each of the first two years of Service 10% per year
  Each additional year of Service over two years 20% additional
  Full vesting after six years of Service  

 

Retirement and death benefits commence at the termination of Service. Benefits may be paid in Cash, Stock or through a Qualified Join and Survivor Annuity.

 

Pursuant to ASC 718, the Company’s ESOP Plan is a non-leveraged plan, and therefore compensation expense is recorded at the fair value of the shares issued at the grant date. The Company has never issued dividends to its shareholders, and therefore no dividends have been issued to the ESOP plan. The ESOP shares are considered issued and outstanding for the earnings per share computation. Compensation expense of $150,000 and $441,000 has been recorded during 2019 or 2018, respectively, for the ESOP shares issued. There have been 23,500,000 and 18,500,000 share allocated to the participants of the Plan, as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively and none of the shares have been committed for release. There are no shares in suspense as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The fair value of the ESOP shares being held by the Trust as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 is $878,900 and $691,900, respectively. There is no repurchase obligation on the Company to purchase back any shares issued to the ESOP Trust. No dividends have been issued to the ESOP Trust, therefore there has been no tax benefit treatment in the Earnings Per Share computation.

 

In December 2018, the Company issued 2,500,000 shares to the ESOP Trust account for the future benefit of the employees of the Company. These shares have been recorded as compensation expense of $441,000, which was the fair value of the shares at the grant date, pursuant to the guidance of ASC 718.

 

In December 2019, the Company issued 5,000,000 shares to the ESOP Trust account for the future benefit of the employees of the Company. These shares have been recorded as compensation expense of $150,000, which was the fair value of the shares at the grant date.

 

NOTE 8- COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

A) LEASES

 

Global Tech Industries Group, Inc. currently does not lease, rent or own any property.

 

B) LITIGATION

 

During March 2013, the Company was named in an action pertaining to the 75% working interest in the Ownbey Lease. Subsequent to the Company’s purchase of the assets and the termination of the operator, a mechanics lien was filed against the property claiming approximately $267,000 in fees are due to the previous operator. An action commenced in the District Court of Chautauqua County, Kansas, captioned Aesir Energy, Inc. vs. American Resource Technologies, Inc.; Nancy Ownbey Archer; Jimmy Stephen Ownbey; Robbie Faye Butts; Global Tech Industries Group, Inc. and TTII oil & Gas, Inc. In February 2017, the Chautauqua Court ruled that the acquisition agreement be nullified. All assets and liabilities were removed from the companies’ books including an asset retirement obligation of $101,250 that was associated with the oil and gas property and recorded as a gain on settlement. No other monetary claims have been asserted against GTII or TTII Oil & Gas, Inc

 

On February 3, 2017, the Company filed suit in Eastern District Federal Court New York against American Resource Technologies, Inc., (ARUR) and several directors and officers relating to the Chautauqua County Court Kansas decision nullifying the acquisition Agreement of ARUR. The Company has made several attempts to recover the shares of GTII stock paid to ARUR for the asset acquisition and the various costs and expenses expended by GTII in fulfillment of its obligations under the contract with ARUR. The failure of non-litigation attempts to resolve the matter resulted in filing an action for declaratory judgment in the US District Court for the Eastern District of New York, Docket No. 17-CV-0698. The case was subsequently withdrawn due to the close of ARUR operations. The Company is continuing its efforts to legally cancel the shares issued to the ARUR shareholders.

 

On December 30, 2016, the Company executed a stock purchase agreement (the “Agreement”), which was signed and closed in Hong Kong, with GoFun Group, Ltd. through its wholly owned subsidiary Go F & B Holdings, Ltd. GoFun Group, Ltd. is a privately held company running a casual dining restaurant business, based in Hong Kong. Subsequent to the agreement being signed, GoFun Group failed to substantially perform under the agreement, including, but not limited to providing audited financials of its assets, making the ongoing payments called for in the agreement, along with other matters that led Global Tech to initiate litigation in the United States. Currently, Global Tech and GoFun are litigating the matter in the U.S District Court for the southern district of New York. The original acquisition agreement and rescission was recorded on the Company’s books in 2016, however the physical share certificates were not returned to the Company. During the last quarter 2019, the Company was able to secure, via preliminary settlement, the return of 43,649,491 shares of the Company’s stock, that was issued in good faith to GoFun in anticipation of a final stock exchange. The stock has since been returned to the Company’s treasury and cancelled. The Company also reclassified a deposit received from GoFun shareholders in the amount of $128,634 for future share issuances pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement, to a Gain on Settlements and Debt Relief as part of the legal settlement of this case. As of this writing, motions are pending that may require remaining negotiations to continue in arbitration.

 

On December 30, 2019, a dispute between the Company and its counsel regarding the GoFun matter, above, resulted in a filing, and subsequent settlement, of an action in the Supreme Court of the State of New York for the County of New York (Index No. 656396/2019). Pursuant to the settlement, prior counsel for the Company accepted previously-issued shares in 2016, as full payment for all legal work, expenses, costs, and other fees.

C) EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

 

Effective October 1, 2007, the Company entered into a two-year employment agreement with David Reichman, Chief Executive Officer, pursuant to which Mr. Reichman was paid an annual salary of $250,000, payable in semi-monthly installments. In addition, Mr. Reichman may be paid a bonus or bonuses during each year, as determined at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors and receive stock options to purchase 1.2 million shares of common stock as discussed above. During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Board of Directors approved the extension of this contract an additional two years from the date of expiration, at an annual salary of $500,000. During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Board of Directors approved the extension of this contract until December 31, 2013 with a salary of $1. Mr. Reichman’s salary has been accruing because Global Tech is without the resources to pay the salary in full. This employment agreement was filed on November 7, 2007, as exhibit 99.2 to a current report of the Company on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. Mr. Reichman’s contract has been extended by mutual consent to December 31, 2017. Predicated upon the executed Agreement between GTII and GoFun, The Board of Directors of GTII voted pursuant to the Agreement to begin salary payments as of April 2nd, 2017, retroactive to January 1, 2017, and thru December 31, 2019.

 

Effective April 1, 2009, the Company entered into a three-year employment agreement with Kathy Griffin, President, pursuant to which Mrs. Griffin was paid an annual salary of $127,500, payable in semi-monthly installments. In addition, Mrs. Griffin may be paid a bonus or bonuses during each year, as determined at the discretion of the CEO, and receive stock options to purchase shares of common stock as discussed above. Mrs. Griffin was given a salary increase effective April 1, 2010 to an annual salary of $180,000. This salary increase accrued in 2010 because Global Tech was without resources to pay the salary increase. This employment agreement was filed on March 25, 2010 as exhibit 10.1 to a current report of the Company on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. Mrs. Griffin’s employment contract has been extended at December 31, 2012 until December 31, 2013, with a salary of $1. Mrs. Griffin’s contract was extended by mutual consent to December 31, 2017. Predicated upon the executed Agreement between GTII and GoFun, The Board of Directors of GTII voted pursuant to the Agreement to begin salary payments as of April 2nd, 2017, retroactive to January 1, 2017, and thru December 31, 2019.

NOTE 9 - MARKETABLE SECURITIES

 

The Company has acquired various shares of Marketable Securities over the past several years and engages in trading activities for its own account.. The Company’s marketable securities are listed on various exchanges with readily determinable fair value per the guidance of ASC 321. The fair value of these shares at December 31, 2019 and 2018 amounted to $44,044 and $182,952, respectively. All realized gains and (losses) and unrealized gains and (losses) are recorded in earnings. For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company recorded a net gain of $67,342 which consisted of realized gains of $75,190 and unrealized losses of $(7,848). For the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company recorded unrealized losses of ($45,224). The Company does not hold any equity securities that do not have readily available fair values, therefore no impairment analysis or other methods to determine value are used.

 

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the new accounting standard for Financial Instruments, which requires equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. The adoption of this guidance resulted in a $149,209 increase to beginning retained earnings and a $149,209 decrease to beginning accumulated other comprehensive income.

 

NOTE 10 - ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATION

 

During 2013, the Company began the re-work project on various well associated with the Ownbey Oil and Gas Lease purchased on December 31, 2012. The Company will be required as part of the purchase of this lease to remediate the Ownbey property upon its abandonment of the lease. In accordance with FASB ASC 410-20, Asset Retirement Obligations, the Company recognized the fair value of the liability for an asset retirement obligation in the amount of $101,250. Because the Company does not have a certified valuation report for the Ownbey lease we did not capitalize this cost, but instead expensed the entire amount during the 2013 year. During 2019 the Company reversed all obligation associated with the ARUR acquisition due to the Kansas Court ruling (see litigation in Note 8) The following table describes all changes to the Company’s asset retirement obligation liability during 2019:

 

   December 31, 
   2019   2018 
Asset retirement obligation-beginning of year  $101,250   $101,250

NOTE 11 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

On May 8, 2020, the Board of Directors authorized the issuance of 3,040,000, for services rendered.

 

The Company has evaluated events subsequent to the balance sheet through the date the financial statements were issued and noted no additional events requiring disclosure.


 

NOTE 12 – RESTATEMENT OF PRIOR ISSUED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

The financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2018 have been restated due to an error in reporting the shares issued to the ESOP Plan Trust. The ESOP Plan is a non-leveraged Plan and pursuant to ASC 718, the shares issued to the Trust should be recorded in compensation expense at the fair value of the shares issued at the grant date of the award. The Company, however, was accounting for the ESOP share issuance as Unearned ESOP shares and was recording the fair value of the awards as a contra equity account. The Company also adopted ASC 321, effective January 1, 2018, therefore, unrealized gains and losses from marketable securities were to be recorded in earnings, however, the Company erroneously recorded unrealized losses on marketable securities in 2018 in other accumulated comprehensive income, an equity account. The impact of the Restatement is as follows at December 31, 2018:

ITEM 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosures

 

On March 2, 2020, the Company appointed Heaton & Company, PLLC the independent accounting firm to audit the financial statements of Global Tech Industries Group, Inc and its subsidiaries, for the year ended December 31, 2019, and dismissed KSP Group, Inc. The decision to dismiss KSP Group was approved by the Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors on February 25, 2020 and there were no disagreements with KSP Group, Inc. as pertaining to accounting principles or transactions. An 8-K was filed on March 13,2020, disclosing this change.

 

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information we are required to disclose is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Commission. David Reichman, our Chief Executive Officer and our Principal Accounting Officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining our disclosure controls and procedures.

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report.  The disclosure controls and procedures ensure that all information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is: (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rule and forms; and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Based on that evaluation, management concluded that our controls were not effective as of December 31, 2019.

 

Notwithstanding this finding of ineffective disclosure controls and procedures, we concluded that the consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-K present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

 

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible to establish and maintain adequate internal control over financial reporting.   Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are responsible to design or supervise a process that provides reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  The policies and procedures include:

 

● maintenance of records in reasonable detail to accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of assets,

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

● reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.

 

Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error and circumvention by collusion or overriding of controls. Accordingly, even an effective internal control system may not prevent or detect material misstatements on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2019, our management has relied on the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), “Internal Control - Integrated Framework,” to evaluate the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.  Based upon that framework, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting had material weaknesses and was not effective as of December 31, 2019. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination thereof, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

 

The material weaknesses relate to the limited number of persons responsible for the recording and reporting of financial information, the lack of separation of financial reporting duties, and the limited size of our management team in general. We are in the process of evaluating methods of improving our internal control over financial reporting, including the possible addition of financial reporting staff and the increased separation of financial reporting responsibility, and intend to implement such steps as are necessary and possible to correct these material weaknesses.

 

 37 

 

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

 

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

 

During the year ended December 31, 2019 there was no significant change in our internal controls over financial reporting or in other factors that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

 

Inherent Limitations over Internal Controls

 

GTII’s management does not expect that its disclosure controls or its internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within GTII have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

 

Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of that our reports will be accurate. Our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer concludes that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at that reasonable assurance level, as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-K due to the lack of sufficient segregation of duties and the lack of appropriate personnel. The Company plans to address these material weaknesses as resources become available by hiring additional professional staff, such as a Chief Financial Officer, as funding becomes available, outsourcing certain aspects of the recording and reporting functions, and separating responsibilities. Our future reports shall also indicate that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed for this reason and shall indicate the related conclusion by the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer as to their effectiveness.

Family Relationships

 

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

 

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

 

Although we have not adopted a formal policy on whether the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer positions should be separate or combined, we have recently determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders for these positions to remain combined.

 

Our Board of Directors focuses on the most significant risks facing our company and our company’s general risk management strategy, and also ensure that risks undertaken by our Company are consistent with the Board’s appetite for risk. While the Board oversees our company’s risk management, management is responsible for day-to-day risk management processes. We believe this division of responsibilities is the most effective approach for addressing the risks facing our company and that our Board leadership structure supports this approach.

Limitation of Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors

 

Under Nevada General Corporation Law and our articles of incorporation, our directors will have no personal liability to us or our stockholders for monetary damages incurred as the result of the breach or alleged breach by a director of his “duty of care.” This provision does not apply to the directors’ (i) acts or omissions that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing and culpable violation of law, (ii) acts or omissions that a director believes to be contrary to the best interests of the corporation or our shareholders or that involve the absence of good faith on the part of the director, (iii) approval of any transaction from which a director derives an improper personal benefit, (iv) acts or omissions that show a reckless disregard for the director’s duty to the corporation or our shareholders in circumstances in which the director was aware, or should have been aware, in the ordinary course of performing a director’s duties, of a risk of serious injury to the corporation or our shareholders, (v) acts or omissions that constituted an unexcused pattern of inattention that amounts to an abdication of the director’s duty to the corporation or our shareholders, or (vi) approval of an unlawful dividend, distribution, stock repurchase or redemption. This provision would generally absolve directors of personal liability for negligence in the performance of duties, including gross negligence.

 

The effect of this provision in our articles of incorporation is to eliminate the rights of the Company and our stockholders (through stockholder’s derivative suits on behalf of the Company to recover monetary damages against a director for breach of his fiduciary duty of care as a director (including breaches resulting from negligent or grossly negligent behavior) except in the situations described in clauses (i) through (vi) above. This provision does not limit nor eliminate the rights of the Company or any stockholder to seek non-monetary relief such as an injunction or rescission in the event of a breach of a director’s duty of care. In addition, our Articles of Incorporation provide that if Nevada law is amended to authorize the future elimination or limitation of the liability of a director, then the liability of the directors will be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the law, as amended. Nevada General Corporation Law grants corporations the right to indemnify their directors, officers, employees and agents in accordance with applicable law. Our bylaws provide for indemnification of such persons to the full extent allowable under applicable law. These provisions will not alter the liability of the directors under federal securities laws.

 

We intend to enter into agreements to indemnify our directors and officers, in addition to the indemnification provided for in our bylaws. These agreements, among other things, indemnify our directors and officers for certain expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, and settlement amounts incurred by any such person in any action or proceeding, including any action by or in the right of the Company, arising out of such person’s services as a director or officer of the Company, any subsidiary of the Company or any other company or enterprise to which the person provides services at the request of the Company. We believe that these provisions and agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified directors and officers.

 

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

Report of the Audit Committee

 

Our audit committee has reviewed and discussed our audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 with senior management.

The audit committee has discussed with Heaton & Company, PLLC, the independence of Heaton & Company, PLLC as our auditors. Finally, in considering whether the independent auditors’ provision of non-audit services to us is compatible with the auditors’ independence for Heaton & Company, PLLC, our audit committee has recommended to the board of directors that our audited financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 for filing with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Our audit committee did not submit a formal report regarding its findings.

Reporting Persons are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file. To the Company’s knowledge, based solely on its review of the copies of such reports received or written representations from certain Reporting Persons that no other reports were required, the Company believes that during its fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 all Reporting Persons timely complied with all applicable filing requirements.

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION.

 

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

 

The following Compensation Discussion and Analysis describes the material elements of compensation for our executive officers identified in the Summary Compensation Table (“Named Executive Officers”), and executive officers that we may hire in the future. As more fully described below, our board of directors approves all decisions for the total direct compensation of our executive officers, including the Named Executive Officers brought forward by the Compensation Committee.

 

Compensation Program Objectives and Rewards

 

Our compensation philosophy is based on the premise of attracting, retaining, and motivating exceptional leaders, setting high goals, working toward the common objectives of meeting the expectations of customers and stockholders, and rewarding outstanding performance. Following this philosophy, in determining executive compensation, we consider all relevant factors, such as the competition for talent, our desire to link pay with performance in the future, the use of equity to align executive interests with those of our stockholders, individual contributions, teamwork and performance, and each executive’s total compensation package. We strive to accomplish these objectives by compensating all executives with total compensation packages consisting of a combination of competitive base salary and incentive compensation.

 

While we have only hired two executives since inception because our business has not grown sufficiently to justify additional hires, we expect to grow and hire in the future. To date, we have not applied a formal compensation program to determine the compensation of the Named Executives Officers. In the future, as we and our management team expand, our board of directors expects to add independent members, form a compensation committee comprised of independent directors, and apply the compensation philosophy and policies described in this section of the Form 10-K.

 

The primary purpose of the compensation and benefits described below is to attract, retain, and motivate highly talented individuals when we do hire, who will engage in the behaviors necessary to enable us to succeed in our mission while upholding our values in a highly competitive marketplace. Different elements are designed to engender different behaviors, and the actual incentive amounts which may be awarded to each Named Executive Officer are subject to the annual review of the board of directors. The following is a brief description of the key elements of our planned executive compensation structure.

 

  Base salary and benefits are designed to attract and retain employees over time.
     
  Incentive compensation awards are designed to focus employees on the business objectives for a particular year.
     
  Equity incentive awards, such as stock options and non-vested stock, focus executives’ efforts on the behaviors within the recipients’ control that they believe are designed to ensure our long-term success as reflected in increases to our stock prices over a period of several years, growth in our profitability and other elements.
     
  Severance and change in control plans are designed to facilitate a company’s ability to attract and retain executives as we compete for talented employees in a marketplace where such protections are commonly offered. We currently have not given separation benefits to any of our Name Executive Officers.

 

 44 

 

Benchmarking

 

We have not yet adopted benchmarking but may do so in the future. When making compensation decisions, our board of directors may compare each element of compensation paid to our Named Executive Officers against a report showing comparable compensation metrics from a group that includes both publicly-traded and privately-held companies. Our board believes that while such peer group benchmarks are a point of reference for measurement, they are not necessarily a determining factor in setting executive compensation as each executive officer’s compensation relative to the benchmark varies based on scope of responsibility and time in the position. We have not yet formally established our peer group for this purpose.

 

The Elements of David Reichman’s and Kathy Griffin’s Compensation Programs

 

Base Salary

 

Executive officer base salaries are based on job responsibilities and individual contribution. The board reviews the base salaries of our executive officers, including our Named Executive Officers, considering factors such as corporate progress toward achieving objectives (without reference to any specific performance-related targets) and individual performance experience and expertise. Additional factors reviewed by the board of directors in determining appropriate base salary levels and raises include subjective factors related to corporate and individual performance. For the year ended December 31, 2019, all executive officer base salary decisions were approved by the board of directors.

 

Our board of directors determines base salaries for the Named Executive Officers at the beginning of each fiscal year, and the board proposes new base salary amounts, if appropriate, based on its evaluation of individual performance and expected future contributions. We do not have a 401(k) Plan, but if we adopt one in the future, base salary would be the only element of compensation that would be used in determining the amount of contributions permitted under the 401(k) Plan.

 

Incentive Compensation Awards

 

The Named Executives have not been paid bonuses and our board of directors has not yet established a formal compensation policy for the determination of bonuses. If our revenue grows and bonuses become affordable and justifiable, we expect to use the following parameters in justifying and quantifying bonuses for our Named Executive Officers and other officers of Global Tech Industries Group, Inc. (1) the growth in our revenue, (2) the growth in our earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted (“EBITDA”), and (3) our stock price. The board has not adopted specific performance goals and target bonus amounts for any of our fiscal years, but may do so in the future.

 

Equity Incentive Awards

 

No stock option awards have been made to any of our Named Executives or other officers or employees of Global Tech Industries Group, Inc. under Omnibus Stock and Incentive Plan, which was subsequently cancelled.

 

Benefits and Prerequisites

 

At this stage of our business we have limited benefits and no prerequisites for our employees. We do not have a 401(k) Plan, but do have a Profit Sharing Plan Trust specifically earmarked as a retirement plan. This plan is funded by adding an amount as deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors each year. We may adopt other plans and/or confer other fringe benefits for our executive officers in the future if our business grows sufficiently to enable us to afford them.

 

 45 

 

Separation and Change in Control Arrangements

 

We have employment agreements with our Named Executive Officers. They are eligible for specific benefits or payments if their employment or engagement terminates or if there is a change of control.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures of Audit and Non-Audit Services of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

The audit committee’s policy is to pre-approve, typically at the beginning of our fiscal year, all audit and non-audit services, other than de minimis non-audit services, to be provided by an independent registered public accounting firm. These services may include, among others, audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services and such services are generally subject to a specific budget. The independent registered public accounting firm and management are required to periodically report to the full board of directors regarding the extent of services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm in accordance with this pre-approval, and the fees for the services performed to date. As part of the board’s review, the board will evaluate other known potential engagements of the independent auditor, including the scope of work proposed to be performed and the proposed fees, and approve or reject each service, taking into account whether the services are permissible under applicable law and the possible impact of each non-audit service on the independent auditor’s independence from management. At audit committee meetings throughout the year, the auditor and management may present subsequent services for approval. Typically, these would be services such as due diligence for an acquisition, that would not have been known at the beginning of the year.

 

The audit committee has considered the provision of non-audit services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm to be compatible with maintaining their independence. The audit committee will continue to approve all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm.

As of the date of this filing, our current policy is to not engage to provide, among other things, bookkeeping services, appraisal or valuation services, or international audit services. The policy provides that we engage to provide audit, tax compliance, and other assurance services, such as review of SEC reports or filings.
