Forward-Looking Statements

 

Certain statements made in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are “forward-looking statements” regarding the plans and objectives of management for future operations.  Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause actual results, performance, or achievements of SecureTech Innovations, Inc. (“SecureTech” or “Company”) to be materially different from any future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.  The forward-looking statements included herein are based on current expectations that involve numerous risks and uncertainties.  SecureTech’s plans and objectives are based, in part, on assumptions involving it continuing as a going concern and executing on its stated business plan and objectives.  Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond the control of SecureTech.  Although SecureTech believes its assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of the assumptions could prove inaccurate and, therefore, there can be no assurance the forward-looking statements included in this Annual Report will prove to be accurate.  Considering the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by SecureTech or any other person that the objectives and plans of SecureTech will be achieved. SecureTech assumes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect actual results or changes in factors or assumptions affecting such forward-looking statements.

 

As used in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the terms "we", "us", "our", "SecureTech", “Registrant”, “Company”, and “Issuer” mean SecureTech Innovations, Inc. unless the context clearly requires otherwise.

 

Item 1.  Business

 

Business Overview

 

SecureTech is an emerging growth company focused on developing and marketing personal and automobile security and safety devices and technologies. SecureTech first product, Top Kontrol, is currently being sold in the United States.

 

Products

 

Top Kontrol Logo with (R).jpg 

 

Top Kontrol is the world’s most advanced anti-theft and anti-carjacking system currently available. Unlike our competitors’ products that only protect a vehicle from unattended theft, Top Kontrol takes vehicle security and passenger safety to the next level – it prioritizes the driver and passengers' safety.  Top Kontrol is presently the only automobile security and personal safety system able to thwart an active carjacking attempt without any action by the driver.

 

Top Kontrol knows the difference between the authorized driver and an unauthorized thief or carjacker through its advanced patented design.  This is achieved using strategically placed sensors in the vehicle and a unique FOB device hidden on the authorized driver’s person.  Regardless of whether someone tries to steal your vehicle while it is innocently idling unattended in a parking lot or attempt to take it by force at gunpoint, Top Kontrol will only allow the unauthorized driver to drive for 15-20 seconds before automatically turning the engine off and preventing any restart attempts.  This prevents the thief from stealing your car and allows the occupants sufficient time to run for safety in the event of an armed carjacking.  SecureTech is not aware of any other product on the market that offers a cost-effective solution to the skyrocketing carjacking problem.

 

Because Top Kontrol is wired into the automobile’s ignition and lighting systems, it must be installed and serviced by a Top Kontrol Certified Technician.

Key Advantages of Top Kontrol:

 

 

Anti-theft circuits actively prevent automobile theft and carjacking

 

Automatically prevents theft although keys are in ignition and engine is idling

 

Active and passive prevention of carjacking

 

Does not interfere with vehicle’s other systems

 

Compatible with most makes and models of cars and trucks

 

Manual engine kill switch

 

Key-based system prevents thieves from hacking wirelessly transmitted security codes

 

Does not draw battery power – system works even with a disabled car battery

Industry: Carjackings Skyrocketing

 

Carjackings more than doubled during 2020. Top Kontrol is presently the only known automobile safety device that can thwart an active carjacking attempt without any action by the driver. Below are just a few reports about this growing problem without any long-term solutions:

 

·Minneapolis, MN police report carjackings up more than 537% in 2020 (source: ABC, December 12, 2020); 

·Chicago, IL police report carjackings up more than 134% in 2020 (source: ABC7, December 4, 2020); 

·Jackson, MS police report carjackings up more than 120% in 2020 (source: WLBT, December 24, 2020); 

·New Orleans, LA police report carjackings up more than 153% in 2020 (source: 4WWL, December 9, 2020); and 

·Washington, DC police report carjacking up more than 141% in 2020 (source: WUSA, December 27, 2020). 

 

Corporate History

 

SecureTech was incorporated under the State of Wyoming's laws on March 2, 2017, under the name SecureTech, Inc.  The Company amended its Articles of Incorporation on December 20, 2017, to change its name to SecureTech Innovations, Inc.

Competition

 

SecureTech faces formidable competition in every aspect of its business.  Our company's success or failure will depend largely upon management's ability to develop competitive products and successfully market them to attract enough new customers, enabling us to generate sufficient revenues to become profitable.

 

SecureTech competes against better-established competitors with substantially greater financial resources and longer operating histories.  Our competitors’ resources and market presence may provide them with significant advantages in marketing, purchasing, and negotiating leverage.  Some of our better-known competitors include Viper (www.viper.com) and LoJack Corporation (www.lojack.com).  Below is a table providing a comparative overview of how Top Kontrol stacks up to the competitors’ product offerings:

In addition to the competitors listed above, we are competing with other lesser-known competitors as well as competitors presently not known to us or, possibly, not even formed yet.

 

We believe that our targeted industry is sufficiently large enough that we will be able to compete successfully against our competitors with our existing and future products.  However, it is essential to note that the underlying product technology is always evolving and expanding with new competitors continuously innovating better products that could eventually outperform our then offered products or, worse, possibly render them obsolete.

 

Manufacturing

 

SecureTech presently uses US-based contract manufacturers to manufacture its products with final assembly performed at SecureTech’s Minnesota headquarters.  SecureTech does not have any long-term or exclusivity agreements with any contract manufacturer and is free to change or negotiate with new contract manufacturers at its sole discretion.

 

Additionally, Management has been exploring the feasibility of establishing a warehouse and manufacturing facility in Florida once the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has passed.  Our goal with this location would be to facilitate international sales and exports while reducing overall manufacturing and shipping expenses.

 

SecureTech’s products proudly carry the “Made in the USA” designation.

Government Regulation

 

Our products are designed to meet all known existing or proposed governmental regulations. We believe that we currently meet existing standards for approvals by government regulatory agencies for our principal products.

 

Top Kontrol was issued a Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Declaration of Conformity certification in March 2020.

 

Compliance with Environmental Laws

 

We believe there are no material issues or material costs associated with our compliance with environmental laws. We did not incur environmental expenses in fiscal periods ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, nor do we anticipate environmental expenses in the foreseeable future.

 

Intellectual Property Rights and Proprietary Information

 

We operate in an industry where innovation, investment in new ideas, and protection of resulting intellectual property rights are essential drivers of success. We rely on various intellectual property protections for our products and technologies, including patent, trademark and trade secret laws, and contractual obligations. We pursue a policy of vigorously enforcing our intellectual property rights.

 

Patents that have been issued and/or licensed to SecureTech and their dates of issuance are:

 

·On May 7, 2013, Shongkawh, LLC, a related party controlled by our President and CEO, was issued US Patent No. 8,436,721 entitled “Automobile Theft Protection and Disablement System,” by the US Patent & Trademark Office (“USPTO”). This patent expires on March 19, 2030.  SecureTech has the exclusive license for the use of this patent through its expiration date. 

 

In addition to such factors as innovation, technological expertise, and experienced personnel, we believe robust product offerings that are continually upgraded and enhanced will keep us competitive. We will seek patent protection on significant technological improvements that we make. We have an ongoing policy of filing patent applications to seek protection for our products and technologies' novel features. Prior to the filing and granting of patents, our policy is to disclose key features to patent counsel and maintain these features as trade secrets before product introduction. Patent applications may not result in issued patents covering all-important claims and could be denied in their entirety. We also file for trade name and trademark protection when appropriate. We are the owner of federally registered trademarks, including SECURETECH INNOVATIONS® and TOP KONTROL®.

 

Our policy is to enter into nondisclosure agreements with each employee, consultant, or third-party to whom any of our proprietary information may be disclosed. These agreements prohibit disclosing our confidential information to others, both during and after employment or working relationship.

 

Employees

 

As of December 31, 2020, we had no full-time or part-time employees; we have three non-paid founding executive officers, all based in our Roseville, Minnesota office.

 

During the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021, our founding executive team intends to transition into working for SecureTech full-time.  Additionally, we are currently building a sales team and are actively in the hiring process to staff it with qualified full-time sales personnel. However, the COVID-19 pandemic hinders this process somewhat and makes it more challenging to meet and interview prospective job applicants formally.

Item 1A.  Risk Factors

 

If any of the following risks occur, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be harmed, and you may lose your entire investment.

 

Failure to successfully address the risks and uncertainties described below could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and/or results of operations, and the trading price of our common stock may decline and investors may lose all or part of their investment. We cannot assure you that we will successfully address these risks or other unknown risks that may affect our business.

 

Risks Related to the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) Pandemic

 

The recent COVID-19 (Coronavirus) pandemic has impacted our operations and could continue to adversely affect our business operations, financial performance, and results of operations, the extent of which is uncertain and difficult to predict.

 

The global spread of the COVID-19 pandemic has created significant business uncertainty for us and others, resulting in volatility and economic disruption. Additionally, the outbreak has resulted in local, state, national, and international government authorities implementing numerous measures to reduce the spread of COVID-19.  Examples of such measures include travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place, stay-at-home or total “lock-down” (or similar) orders, and business limitations and forced closures.

 

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the related responses from various government authorities, our business and operations have been impacted, including our employees being forced to work from home and avoid travel and meeting in public. During the COVID-19 outbreak, many of our targeted prospective customers and resellers have experienced, and continue to experience, mandated business closures, reduced operating hours, and other similar restrictions due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which have negatively impacted our Top Kontrol product rollout plans and early sales efforts. An example of how we have been negatively impacted includes the postponing of the annual SEMA Show in Las Vegas, which we had planned on exhibiting at in November 2020, and other similar events to later dates or shifting events from an in-person format to online only, which have largely proven ineffective.

 

Our business operations, financial performance, and results of operations could be further adversely affected in several ways, including, but not limited to, the following:

 

 

reduced consumer demand for our products and adverse effects on the discretionary spending patterns of potential customers, including their general ability to afford our products;

 

 

 

 

further disruptions to our operations, including any additional closures or “lock-down” of our office building, which may affect our ability to develop, market, and sell our products;

 

 

 

 

restricting our ability to train and certify a sufficient number of automobile technicians as Top Kontrol Certified Technicians on how to install and maintain our products;

 

 

 

 

delaying our planned warehouse and production facility to be located in Miami, Florida to better facilitate international sales and exports of our products;

 

 

 

 

interruptions to our supply chain and suppliers’ respective businesses;

 

 

 

 

disruptions to our retail partners, including product installation businesses, retailers, wholesalers, distributors, and other third-party participants in retail channels; and

 

 

 

 

increase in the cost or the difficulty of obtaining debt or equity financing could affect our financial condition or our ability to fund operations or future investment opportunities.

 

The spread of COVID-19 has caused most businesses, including ours, to modify business practices, including travel, employee work locations, and the cancellation of physically participating in meetings, events, and conferences. We may be forced to take further actions as may be mandated by government authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees,


9


customers, and business partners. Further, key personnel could contract COVID-19, hindering their availability and productivity.

 

The degree to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts our operations, business, financial results, liquidity, and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, continuously evolving, and cannot be predicted. This includes, but is not limited to, the duration and spread of the pandemic, its severity, actions to contain the virus or treat its impact, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and business operating conditions can resume.

 

Risks Related to Our Financial Condition

 

We lack an operating history and have losses which we expect to continue into the future.  There is no assurance our future operations will result in profitable revenues.  If we cannot generate sufficient revenues to operate profitably, our business will fail.

 

We were incorporated on March 2, 2017, and have incurred ($347,018) in losses through December 31, 2020.  We have very little operating history upon which an evaluation of our future success or failure can be made.  We have not achieved profitability and expect to continue to incur net losses in future reporting periods.  We expect to incur significant operating expenses and, as a result, will need to generate significant revenues to achieve profitability, which may never occur.  Even if we do achieve profitability, we may be unable to sustain or increase profitability on an ongoing basis which could cause us to go out of business.

 

Expenses required to operate as a public company will reduce funds available to implement our business plan and could have an adverse effect to our results of operations, cash flow, and overall financial condition.

 

Operating as a public company is considerably more expensive than operating as a private company, including additional funds required to obtain outside assistance from legal, accounting, investor relations, or other professionals that could be costlier than planned. We may also be required to hire additional staff to comply with ongoing SEC reporting requirements. We estimate that the cost of maintaining SEC reporting status to be approximately $150,000 annually. As our business continues to grow and develop, our financial statements and our SEC filings will become more complex, which we estimate will in our compliance expenses to continue increasing annually – potentially substantially – which could have an unexpected material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and overall financial condition.

 

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

 

Our independent registered public accounting firm has discussed their uncertainty regarding our business operations in their audit report dated March 18, 2021, which is part of the financial statements that are part of this Annual Report on  Form 10-K.  This means that there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an ongoing business for the next 12 months.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the uncertainty about our ability to continue in business.  As such, we may have to cease operations, and you could lose your entire investment.

 

We may need additional capital in the future, but there is no assurance that funds will be available on acceptable terms, or at all.

 

We may need to raise additional funds in order to achieve growth or fund other business initiatives. This financing may not be available in sufficient amounts or on terms acceptable to us and may be dilutive to existing stockholders if raised through additional equity offerings. Additionally, any securities issued to raise funds may have rights, preferences, or privileges senior to those of existing stockholders. If adequate funds are not available, or are not available on acceptable terms, our ability to expand, develop or enhance services or products, or respond to competitive pressures may be materially limited.

 

Risks Related to Our Industry

 

Our industry is highly competitive, and as an emerging growth company with a new brand, we may be at a disadvantage to our competitors.

 

Our industry is highly competitive in general.  We are an emerging growth company with limited financial resources and a new brand with limited recognition.  Our competitors, both established and future unknown competitors, have better brand recognition and, in most cases, substantially greater financial resources than we have.  Our ability to successfully compete in our industry depends on many factors, both within and outside our control. These factors include the following:


10


 

 

our success in designing and developing new or enhanced products;

 

 

 

 

our ability to address the changing needs and desires of retailers and consumers;

 

 

 

 

the pricing, quality, performance, reliability, features, ease of installation and use, and diversity of our products;

 

 

 

 

the quality of our customer service;

 

 

 

 

product or technology introductions by our competitors; and

 

 

 

 

the ability of our contract manufacturing partners to deliver products on time, on price, and with acceptable quality.

 

If we are unable to effectively compete on a continuing basis or unforeseen competitive pressures arise, such inability to compete could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and overall financial condition.

 

Risks Related to Our Business

 

Our products may not achieve market acceptance, thereby reducing the chance for success.

 

We are only in the early stages of producing and marketing our first product, Top Kontrol.  It is unclear whether this product and its features or other unanticipated events may result in general sales that are lower-than-anticipated, which could force us to limit our expenditures on research and development, advertising, and general company requirements for improving and expanding our product offerings.  We cannot guarantee consumer demand or interest in our current or future product offerings, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and overall financial condition.

 

If the market chooses to buy our competitors’ products and services, SecureTech may fail.

 

Although SecureTech believes that its product offerings will become commercially viable, there is no verification by the marketplace that our products will be accepted by or purchased by customers. If the market chooses to buy our competitors’ products, it may be more difficult, if not impossible, for us to become profitable, which would substantially harm our business and, possibly, cause it to fail.

 

Consumer trends, seasons fluctuations, and general global economic conditions and outlook may cause unpredictable operating results.

 

SecureTech’s operating results may fluctuate significantly from period to period due to a variety of factors, including purchasing patterns of customers, competitive pricing, and general economic conditions.  There is no assurance that we will be successful in marketing our products or that any revenue from our products' sales will be significant.  Consequently, SecureTech’s revenues may vary significantly by quarter, and our operating results may experience significant fluctuations making it difficult to value our business and could lead to extreme volatility in our future share price.

 

We may be unable to protect our proprietary rights and intellectual property.

 

Our future success depends in part on our proprietary technology, technical know-how, and other intellectual property. We rely on intellectual property laws, confidentiality procedures, and contractual provisions, such as nondisclosure terms, to protect our intellectual property. Others may independently develop similar technology, duplicate our products, or design around our intellectual property rights. Also, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of our products and technologies or obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. Any of these events could significantly harm our business, financial condition, and operating results.

 

We also rely on technologies that we acquire from others. We may rely on third parties for further required technologies. We may purchase a product’s logic component or other technological devices from outside sources, which may require payment of annual fees to enable us to get updates/upgrades and technical support to the logic portion of the system or device. We may find it necessary or desirable in the future to obtain licenses or other rights relating to one or more of our products or current or future technologies. These licenses or other rights may not be available on commercially reasonable terms or at all. The inability to obtain specific licenses or other rights or obtain such licenses or rights on favorable terms, or the need to engage in litigation regarding these matters, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and operating


11


results. Moreover, the use of intellectual property licensed from third parties may limit our ability to protect our products' proprietary rights.

 

While no current lawsuits are filed against SecureTech, the possibility exists that a claim of some kind may be made in the future.

 

While no current lawsuits are filed against us, the possibility exists that a claim of some kind may be made in the future.

 

Presently we have no general liability insurance policy.  While we intend to seek such coverage during the current fiscal year, we can offer no assurances that we will successfully be able to obtain such coverage or, if such coverage is offered to us, that we will be able to afford the annual premiums.  Further, even with general liability coverage there can be no guarantees that the coverage would fully protect us from legal claims arising from a future lawsuit, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

 

Our business's success depends heavily on key personnel, particularly Kao Lee, and his business experience and understanding of our industry.  Our business would likely fail if we were to lose his services.

 

Our business's success depends heavily upon our principal executive officer Kao Lee's abilities and experience.  The loss of Mr. Lee would have a significant and immediate impact on our business, results of operations, and overall financial condition.  Further, the loss of Mr. Lee would force us to seek a replacement or replacements who may have less general business experience and, in particular, experience in our industry, fewer industry contacts, and less understanding of our overall business plan.  We can make no assurances that we will be able to find a suitable replacement should Mr. Lee depart, which could force us to curtail operations and/or cease operations, whereby you could lose your entire investment.

 

Mr. Lee is not presently covered by an employment agreement nor is he subject to a non-compete agreement that would survive his employment termination.  Mr. Lee can terminate his relationship with us at any time without cause.  Further, we do not carry “key person” insurance on any employee, including Mr. Lee.  The departure of Mr. Lee would most likely have a severe and negative impact on our overall business and cause us to cease operations, whereby you could lose your entire investment.

 

In addition to our dependency on Mr. Lee’s continued services, our future success will also depend on our ability to attract and retain additional future key personnel.  We face intense competition for these such qualified individuals from well-established and better-financed competitors.  We may not be able to attract talented new employees or retain existing employees, which may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

 

Our directors currently control an aggregate of approximately 87.4% of our eligible votes in all voting matters.  Accordingly, our directors can solely determine and control all corporate decisions, even if such decisions may not be in the best interest of minority shareholders.

 

Our directors currently control an aggregate of 149,000,000 votes in all voting matters, or approximately 87.4%, of all eligible votes.  Accordingly, our directors can determine the outcome of all corporate transactions or other matters, including mergers, consolidations, and the sale of all or substantially all of our assets.  Our directors' interests may differ from the interests of the other shareholders and thus result in corporate decisions that are disadvantageous to other shareholders.

 

Our officers and directors may be subject to conflicts of interest.

 

Our officers and directors have potential conflicts of interest in his dealings with us.  Circumstances under which conflicts of interest include:


12


 

 

 

We have no independent directors so the Board of Directors is free to establish their own compensation packages without the guidance of a Compensation Committee;

 

 

 

 

Future compensation agreements will not be negotiated at arm’s-length as would normally occur if the agreements were with unaffiliated third parties;

 

 

 

 

Acquisitions and purchases or sales of assets and other similar transactions can be made without due diligence or extended negotiation; and

 

 

 

 

Business combinations or the implementation anti-takeover “poison pill” preventative measures without proper due diligence or consideration.

 

We have not formulated a policy for potential conflicts of interest that may arise between us and our officers and directors.  If a potential conflict of interest arises and cannot be resolved, the result could be contrary to the interests of other shareholders and prevent us from ever achieving profitability, have a negative impact on our overall business, and result in you losing all or part of your investment.

 

All of our officers and directors have other significant outside business interests and will be able to devote only a portion of their professional time to SecureTech’s operations. As such, our business could fail if any of them are unable or unwilling to devote a sufficient amount of time to our business.

 

The responsibility of developing our core business, securing the financing we need, both primary and expansion, and fulfilling the reporting requirements of a public company all fall upon our officers and directors, none of whom currently dedicate more than 50% of their professional time to SecureTech’s business operations.

 

Both Messrs. Lee and Vang spend their remaining professional time dedicated to Shongkawh, LLC, which is a private consulting firm specializing in developing personal and automobile security and safety devices and technologies.  One of the patented technologies developed at Shongkawh was licensed to us and is the underlying technical platform for our Top Kontrol product.  Without this patent license we would not have a product.

 

Despite Messrs. Lee and Vang’s heavy involvement in Shongkawh we cannot guarantee that it would license any future technological developments or patents to us again.  Further, there is no guarantee that should Shongkawh develop new useful technologies in the future that it would not license such technologies to a competitor or another company that could be controlled by Messrs. Lee and Vang.

 

It is also important to consider that none of our officers or directors are presently under any employment agreements with any of their business interests, including our business.  If they were to enter into such an agreement with an outside business interest, they could be forced to resign from our business or devote even less time to our business interests than they presently do.

 

In the event that any of our officers or directors are unable to fulfill any aspect of their duties or they decide to start spending more time on their competing business interests, we may experience a shortfall or complete lack of revenue resulting in little or no profits and the eventual closure of our business.

 

We depend on contract manufacturers who may not have adequate capacity to fulfill our needs or may not meet our quality and delivery objectives and timetables.

 

We do not own our production lines or manufacturing facilities.  We manufacture our products in the United States through third-party contract manufacturers.

 

Our current reliance on these third-party contract manufacturers involves significant risks, including reduced control over quality and logistics management, the potential lack of adequate capacity, and the discontinuance of the contractors’ assembly processes. Potential financial instability at our contract manufacturers could result in us having to find new suppliers, which could increase our costs and delay our product and installation deliveries. Our contractor manufacturers could also choose to discontinue contracting to build our products for any variety of reasons, with or without cause. Consequently, we may experience delays in the timeliness, quality, and adequacy in product and installation deliveries, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and overall financial condition.


13


We will incur additional expenses and management’s time relating to SEC reporting obligations and SEC compliance requirements, and our management has no experience in such matters.

 

Our officers and directors are responsible for managing us, including complying with SEC reporting obligations, maintaining disclosure controls and procedures, and preserving internal control over financial reporting. These public reporting requirements and controls are new to our officers and directors and at times will require us to obtain outside assistance from legal, accounting, or other professionals which will increase, potentially substantially, our costs of remaining compliant with these requirements. Should we fail to comply with these reporting requirements and internal controls and procedures, we may be subjected to securities law violations that may result in additional compliance costs or costs associated with SEC judgments or fines, both of which will increase our costs and negatively affect our potential profitability and our ability to conduct our business.

 

Because we do not have an audit or compensation committee, shareholders will have to rely on our board of directors, which is not independent, to perform these functions.

 

We do not have an audit or compensation committee or board of directors as a whole that is composed of independent directors. Our officers and directors perform the functions of these traditional corporate committees. Because none of our directors are deemed independent, there is a potential conflict between their and/or our interests and our shareholders’ interests since the above will participate in discussions concerning management compensation and audit issues that may affect management decisions. Until we have an audit committee or independent directors, there may be less oversight of management decisions and activities and little ability for minority shareholders to challenge or reverse those activities and decisions, even if they are not in the best interests of minority shareholders.

 

We have agreed to indemnify our officers and directors against lawsuits to the fullest extent of the law.

 

We are a Wyoming corporation. Wyoming law permits the indemnification of officers and directors against expenses incurred in successfully defending against a claim. Wyoming law also authorizes Wyoming corporations to indemnify their officers and directors against expenses and liabilities incurred because of their being or having been an officer or director. Our organizational documents provide for this indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by Wyoming law.

 

We currently do not maintain any insurance coverage. In the event that we are found liable for damages or other losses, we would incur substantial and protracted losses in paying any such claims or judgments. In the past, we have not maintained liability insurance but intend to acquire such coverage immediately upon resources becoming available. There is no guarantee that we can secure such coverage or that any insurance coverage, if ever secured, would protect us from any damages or loss claims filed against it.

 

Risks Related to Market for Our Common Stock

 

Investing in SecureTech is a risky investment and could result in the loss of your entire investment.

 

Purchasing shares in SecureTech is speculative in nature and involves significant risks. Our shares should not be purchased by any person who cannot afford the loss of his or her entire investment. SecureTech’s business plan and objectives are also speculative, and we may be unable to achieve those objectives successfully. Shareholders in SecureTech may be unable to realize a substantial return on their investment, or any return whatsoever, and may lose their entire investment in SecureTech. For this reason, each prospective investor should read this Annual Report and all of its exhibits carefully and consult with their attorney, business advisor and/or investment advisor.

 

There is no market for our shares of common stock, and we may never develop a market, which would render investors’ investment illiquid.

 

SEC Rule 15c2-11 was designed to allow non-reporting company’s securities to be quoted on The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) OTC Markets or other market by filing disclosures. Rule 15c2-11 requires market makers to review basic issuer information before publishing quotations for the issuer’s securities. Market makers must have a reasonable basis for believing that the information is accurate and from reliance sources.

 

If a security has eligible status, it means one or more market makers has received clearance to quote the issuer on the OTC Markets within the last 30 days. During the “eligible” period, a frequency-of-quotation test is administered. The frequency-of-quotation test is based on whether a broker/dealer has itself published quotations in the security in the applicable interdealer quotation system on at least 12 business days during the preceding 30 calendar days with not more than four consecutive


14


business days without quotations. Once this criterion has been satisfied, authorized participants may register online to quote a security. As long as the security remains in an “active” state, any participant may quote the security without a Form 211 submission.

 

Our common stock is not listed on any stock market or exchange, making the selling and trading of our shares exceedingly difficult. Without a secondary market, one cannot easily sell or trade our shares after purchasing them, and therefore may be stuck with their shares, rendering them illiquid.

 

Glendale Securities, Inc. submitted a Form 211 on behalf of SecureTech in late December 2020 to have our securities quoted on OTC Markets.  We cannot predict whether FINRA will approve this Form 211. Further, even if this application is approved, quotation on a market does not assure that a meaningful market will ever be created or sustained. It is common, in fact, for newly listed companies to have a non-existent trading volume on any given day.

 

Any future market price for our shares may be volatile.

 

In the event we obtain a listing on an exchange, the market price for our shares is likely to be highly volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to various factors, including the following:

 

 

our failure to meet the expectations of the investment community or our estimates of our future results of operations;

 

 

 

 

industry trends and the business success of our customers;

 

 

 

 

loss of one or more key customers;

 

 

 

 

strategic moves by our competitors, such as product or service announcements or acquisitions;

 

 

 

 

regulatory developments;

 

 

 

 

litigation;

 

 

 

 

general economic conditions;

 

 

 

 

other domestic and international macroeconomic factors unrelated to our performance; and

 

 

 

 

any of the other previously noted risk factors.

 

We do not intend to pay any dividends on our common stock. Therefore there are limited ways in which you can make a profit on any investment in SecureTech Innovations, Inc.

 

We have never paid any cash dividends and currently do not intend to pay any dividends for the foreseeable future.  To the extent that we may seek additional funding in the future, our future funding sources may likely prohibit us from paying any dividends.  Because we do not intend to declare dividends, any gain on an investment in our shares of common stock will need to come through the appreciation of our common stock’s share price, for which we can give no assurances that our common stock will ever appreciate in value and, even if it does appreciate in value, that you will be able to sell your shares of our common stock for a profit.

 

We have certain anti-takeover provisions and may issue additional stock, both common and preferred shares, without shareholder consent which may make it difficult, if not impossible, to replace or remove our current management and could also result in significant dilution to an investment in our common stock.

 

Our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, authorizes the issuance of up to 500 million shares of common stock and of up to 50 million shares of blank check preferred stock with such rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by our Board of Directors.  Our Board of Directors may, without requiring shareholder approval, issue shares of preferred stock with dividends, liquidation, conversion, voting, or other rights that could supersede and/or adversely affect the voting power and/or other rights of the holders of our common stock.  The ability of our Board of Directors to issue shares of common stock and/or preferred stock may prevent any shareholder attempt to replace or remove current management and/or could make it


15


extremely difficult for a third party to acquire us, even if doing so would be beneficial to our stockholders.  Additionally, the issuance of additional common stock or preferred stock in the future may significantly reduce your proportionate ownership and voting power.

 

It is important to note that as of March 18, 2021, we could issue up to an additional 329,557,700 shares of common stock without shareholder consent.

 

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

 

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9, which establishes the definition of a "penny stock," for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require:

 

 

that a broker or dealer approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks; and

 

 

 

 

the broker or dealer receives from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.

 

In order to approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:

 

 

obtain financial information, investment experience and investment objectives of the person; and

 

 

 

 

make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and that the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.

 

The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:

 

 

sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and

 

 

 

 

that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction.

 

Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the "penny stock" rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to sell shares of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.

 

Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.

 

Our common stock is presently deemed a “penny stock”.  The continued application of the “penny stock” rules to our common stock could limit the trading and liquidity of our common stock, adversely affect the market price of our common stock, or cause an increase the transaction costs related to of our common stock.

 

Sales of our common stock under Rule 144 could reduce the price of our stock.

 

From time to time, certain of our stockholders may be eligible to sell some or all of their shares of our common stock through ordinary brokerage transactions in the open market pursuant to Rule 144, promulgated under the Securities Act, subject to certain limitations. In general, pursuant to Rule 144, non-affiliate stockholders may sell freely after six months, subject only to the current public information requirement (which disappears after one year). Affiliates may sell after six months subject to the Rule 144 volume, manner of sale, current public information, and notice requirements.

 

As of March 18, 2021, we had 170,442,300 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding.  Of these shares currently issued and outstanding:


16


 

 

20,003,000 are freely tradable without restrictions (commonly referred to as the “public float”);

 

 

 

 

149,000,000 held by affiliates and are subject to the restrictions and sale limitations imposed by Rule 144; and

 

 

 

 

439,300 held by non-affiliates and are subject to the restrictions and sale limitations imposed by Rule 144.

 

In addition to the preceding, there are 1,757,200 outstanding warrants to purchase shares of our common stock.  These warrants have exercise prices ranging from $0.20 to $0.50 a share and expire between June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2022.  Holders of these warrants can exercise them at any time of their choosing.  Presently, these warrants would convert into additional shares of common stock subjected to the restrictions under Rule 144.

 

The eventual availability for sale of substantial amounts of our common stock under Rule 144 could adversely affect the then-prevailing market prices for our securities and cause you to lose most, if not all, of your investment in our business.

 

We are classified as an “emerging growth company” as well as a “smaller reporting company” and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies and smaller reporting companies will make our common stock less attractive to investors.

 

We are an "emerging growth company", as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (“JOBS Act”), and we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that apply to other public companies, including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock, and our stock price may be more volatile.

 

Section 107 of the JOBS Act 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 for complying with new or revised accounting standards.  In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of specific accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies.   

 

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.

 

Notwithstanding the above, we are also currently a “smaller reporting company,” meaning that we are not an investment company, an asset-backed issuer, or a majority-owned subsidiary of a parent company that is not a smaller reporting company and have a public float of less than $75 million and annual revenues of less than $50 million during the most recently completed fiscal year. In the event that we are still considered a “smaller reporting company,” at such time are we cease being an “emerging growth company,” the disclosure we will be required to provide in our SEC filings will increase, but will still be less than it would be if we were not considered either an “emerging growth company” or a “smaller reporting company.”  Specifically, similar to “emerging growth companies,” “smaller reporting companies” can provide simplified executive compensation disclosures in their filings; are exempt from the provisions of Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requiring that independent registered public accounting firms provide an attestation report on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting; and have certain other decreased disclosure obligations in their SEC filings, including, among other things, only be required to provide two years of audited financial statements in annual reports. Reduced disclosures in our SEC filings due to our status as an “emerging growth company” or “smaller reporting company” may make it harder for investors to analyze our results of operations and financial prospects.

 

Because we are not subject to compliance with rules requiring the adoption of specific corporate governance measures, our shareholders have limited protections against interested director transactions, conflicts of interest, and similar matters.

 

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as rule changes proposed and enacted by the SEC, the New York and NYSE AMEX Equities exchanges and the Nasdaq Stock Market, as a result of Sarbanes-Oxley, require the implementation of various


17


measures relating to corporate governance. These measures are designed to enhance the integrity of corporate management and the securities markets and apply to securities which are listed on those exchanges or the Nasdaq Stock Market. Because we are not presently required to comply with many of the corporate governance provisions and because we chose to avoid incurring the substantial additional costs associated with such compliance any sooner than necessary, we have not yet adopted these measures.

 

We do not currently have independent audit or compensation committees. As a result, the board of directors has the ability, among other things, to determine their own level of compensation. Until we comply with such corporate governance measures, regardless of whether such compliance is required, the absence of such standards of corporate governance may leave our shareholders without protections against interested director transactions, conflicts of interest and similar matters and investors may be reluctant to provide us with funds necessary to expand our operations.

 

We have elected to use the extended transition period for complying with the new or revised accounting standards under Section 102(b)(2)(B) of the JOBS Act.

 

We have elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards under Section 102(b)(2) of the JOBS Act, that allows us to delay the  adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until those standards apply to private companies. As a result of this election, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.

 

As an issuer of “penny stock” the protection provided by the federal securities laws relating to forward-looking statements does not apply to us.

 

Although the federal securities law provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements made by a public company that files reports under the federal securities laws, this safe harbor is not available to issuers of penny stocks. As a result, if we are a penny stock, we will not have the benefit of this safe harbor protection in the event of any claim that the material provided by us contained a material misstatement of fact or was misleading in any material respect because of our failure to include any statements necessary to make the statements not misleading.

 

Item 1B.  Unresolved Staff Comments

 

None.

 

Item 2.  Properties

 

Our principal executive offices are located at 2355 Highway 36 West, Suite 400, Roseville, MN 55113.  We lease this space for $1,035 per month on a month-to-month basis for the time being.

 

We do not hold ownership or leasehold interest in any other property or equipment.

 

Item 3.  Legal Proceedings

 

During the past ten years, no director, person nominated to become a director or executive officer, or promoter of SecureTech has been involved in any legal proceeding that would require disclosure hereunder.

 

From time to time, we may become subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of our business activities. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties for which the outcome cannot be predicted.  Any adverse result in these or other legal matters could arise and cause harm to our business. We currently are not party to any claim or litigation the outcome of which, if determined adversely to us, would individually or in the aggregate be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on our business.

 

Item 4.  Mine Safety Disclosures

 

Not applicable.


18


PART II

 

Item 5.  Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and
Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

 

There is currently no active trading market for our common stock.

 

Glendale Securities, Inc. submitted a Form 211 on behalf of SecureTech in late December 2020 to have our securities quoted on OTC Markets.  We cannot predict whether FINRA will approve this Form 211. Further, even if this application is approved, a market quotation does not assure that a meaningful market will ever be created or sustained. It is common, in fact, for newly listed companies to have a non-existent trading volume on any given day.

 

As of March 18, 2021, the most recent cash sales price for shares of our common stock was $0.15.

 

Holders of Record

 

As of March 18, 2021, we had 170,442,300 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding held by 63 stockholders of record.

 

Dividend Policy

 

We have never declared or paid cash dividends.  We currently intend to retain all future earnings for our business's operation and expansion and do not anticipate paying cash dividends on the common stock in the foreseeable future.  Any payment of cash dividends in the future will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend upon our results of operations, earnings, capital requirements, contractual restrictions, and other factors deemed relevant by our directors.

 

Penny Stock Regulations and Restrictions on Marketability

 

The SEC has adopted Rule 15g-9, which establishes the definition of a "penny stock," for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require:

 

 

that a broker or dealer approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks; and

 

 

 

 

the broker or dealer receives from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.

 

In order to approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:

 

 

obtain financial information, investment experience, and investment objectives of the person; and

 

 

 

 

make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and that the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.

 

The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:

 

 

sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and

 

 

 

 

that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor before the transaction.

 

Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the "penny stock" rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to sell shares of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.

 

Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly


19


statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.

 

Our common stock is presently deemed a “penny stock.”  The continued application of the “penny stock” rules to our common stock could limit the trading and liquidity of our common stock, adversely affect the market price of our common stock, or cause an increase the transaction costs related to of our common stock.

 

Common Stock

 

Our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, authorizes us to issue up to 500,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value.  Each holder of our common stock is entitled to one (1) vote for each share held of record on all voting matters we present for a vote of stockholders, including the election of directors.  Holders of common stock have no cumulative voting rights or preemptive rights to purchase or subscribe for any stock or other securities. There are no conversion rights or redemption or sinking fund provisions with respect to our common stock.  All shares of our common stock are entitled to share equally in dividends from sources legally available when, and if, declared by our Board of Directors.

 

Our Board of Directors is authorized to issue additional shares of common stock not to exceed the amount authorized by the Articles of Incorporation, on such terms and conditions and for such consideration as the Board may deem appropriate without further stockholder action.

 

In the event of our liquidation or dissolution, all shares of our common stock are entitled to share equally in our assets available for distribution to stockholders.  However, the rights, preferences, and privileges of the holders of our common stock are subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of shares of preferred stock that our Board of Directors may decide to issue in the future.

 

As of March 18, 2021, we had 170,442,300 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.

 

Preferred Stock

 

Our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, authorizes us to issue up to 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value.  Our Board of Directors is authorized, without further action by the shareholders, to issue shares of preferred stock and to fix the designations, number, rights, preferences, privileges, and restrictions thereof, including dividend rights, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, liquidation preferences and sinking fund terms.  We believe that the Board of Directors’ power to set the terms of, and our ability to issue, preferred stock will provide flexibility in connection with possible financing or acquisition transactions in the future.  However, the issuance of preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power of holders of common stock and decrease the amount of any liquidation distribution to such holders.  The presence of outstanding preferred stock could also have the effect of delaying, deterring, or preventing a change in control of our company.

 

As of March 18, 2021, we had -0- shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.

 

Share Purchase Warrants

 

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, we conducted a private placement of our securities in the form of a Unit offering. Each Unit was comprised of one share of SecureTech’s common stock and four stock purchase warrants with incremental exercise prices and expiration dates. An aggregate of 1,757,200 stock purchase warrants were issued pursuant to this offering, which closed on June 30, 2020.

 

As of March 18, 2021, we had the following share purchase warrants issued and outstanding.  The following table includes each warrant’s exercise price and expiration date:

Convertible Securities

 

As of December 31, 2020, and March 18, 2021, we had no convertible or derivative securities issued or outstanding.

 

Shares Eligible for Future Sale

 

From time to time, certain of our stockholders may be eligible to sell some or all of their shares of our common stock through ordinary brokerage transactions in the open market pursuant to Rule 144, promulgated under the Securities Act, subject to certain limitations. In general, pursuant to Rule 144, non-affiliate stockholders may sell freely after six months, subject only to the current public information requirement (which disappears after one year). Affiliates may sell after six months subject to the Rule 144 volume, manner of sale, current public information, and notice requirements.

 

As of March 18, 2021, we had 170,442,300 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding.  Of these shares currently issued and outstanding:

 

 

20,003,000 are freely tradable without restrictions (commonly referred to as the “public float”);

 

 

 

 

149,000,000 held by affiliates and are subject to the restrictions and sale limitations imposed by Rule 144; and

 

 

 

 

439,300 held by non-affiliates and are subject to the restrictions and sale limitations imposed by Rule 144.

 

In addition to the preceding, there are 1,757,200 outstanding warrants to purchase shares of our common stock.  These warrants have exercise prices ranging from $0.20 to $0.50 a share and expire between June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2022.  Holders of these warrants can exercise them at any time of their choosing.  Presently, these warrants would convert into additional shares of common stock subjected to the restrictions under Rule 144.

 

The eventual availability for sale of substantial amounts of our common stock under Rule 144 could adversely affect the then-prevailing market prices for our securities.

 

Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans

 

As of March 18, 2021, we did not have any authorized Equity Compensation Plans.

Item 6.  Selected Financial Data

 

Not applicable.

 

Item 7.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the related notes, and other information that are included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. This discussion contains forward-looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as our plans, objectives, expectations, and intentions. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those set forth under the cautionary note regarding “Forward-Looking Statements” contained elsewhere in this Form 10-K. Additionally, you should read the “Risk Factors” section of this Form 10-K for a discussion of important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in the following discussion and analysis.

 

SecureTech is an emerging growth company focused on developing and marketing personal and automobile security and safety devices and technologies. SecureTech first product, Top Kontrol, is currently being sold in the United States.

 

Top Kontrol is unlike any other product on the market – it prioritizes the driver and passengers' safety.  Not only does Top Kontrol protect your vehicle from unattended theft like other car alarms, but it is the only anti-theft and personal safety device able to thwart an active carjacking attempt without any action by the driver.

 

Through its advanced design and use of a licensed patent, Top Kontrol can tell the difference between an authorized driver and an unauthorized thief or carjacker using strategically placed sensors in the automobile and a unique FOB device hidden on the authorized driver’s person.  Regardless of whether someone tries to steal your vehicle while it is innocently idling unattended in the parking lot or take it by force at gunpoint, Top Kontrol will only allow the unauthorized driver to drive for 15-20 seconds before automatically turning the engine off and preventing any attempt to restart the engine.  This prevents the thief from stealing your car and/or allows the driver sufficient time to run to safety after being threatened at gunpoint.  SecureTech is not aware of any other product on the market that solves the carjacking problem in the manner of Top Kontrol.

 

Because Top Kontrol is wired into the automobile’s ignition and lighting systems, it must be installed and serviced by a Top Kontrol Certified Technician.

Limited Operating History; Need for Additional Capital

 

There is limited historical financial information about us upon which to base an evaluation of our performance.  We are an emerging growth business with limited operating history.  We cannot guarantee that we will be successful in our business operations.  Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources and possible cost overruns, such as increases in marketing costs, increases in administrative expenditures associated with daily operations, increases in accounting and audit fees, and increases in legal fees related to filings and regulatory compliance.

 

As of December 31, 2020, we had incurred ($347,018) in losses since our inception on March 2, 2017.  We have not achieved profitability and expect to continue to incur net losses into subsequent fiscal periods.  We expect to incur significant operating expenses and, as a result, will need to generate significant revenues to achieve profitability, which may never occur.  Even if we do achieve profitability, we may be unable to sustain or increase profitability on an ongoing basis, which could cause us to go out of business.

 

To become profitable and competitive, we must successfully sell our current product, Top Kontrol, and continue to innovate and develop new similar personal and automobile security and safety devices and technologies that will be accepted by the marketplace.  We anticipate relying on equity sales of our common stock to continue to fund our business operations until we can generate sufficient revenues to cover our operating expenses, which may never happen.  Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to our then existing stockholders.  There is no assurance that we will be able to make any additional sales of our equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund our planned business activities.  We may also rely on loans from our management or other significant shareholders.  However, there are no assurances that management or any of our significant shareholders will provide us with any additional funds in the future.

 

We are continually exploring new financing sources to meet our need for additional cash, including raising funds through sales of our equity securities and loans.  We cannot provide any assurances that our efforts to secure additional financing will be successful.  We have no guarantee that future funding will be available to us on acceptable terms.  If financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue, develop, or expand our operations.  Further, future equity financing could result in additional and substantial dilution to existing shareholders.

Sales

 

Sales for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 were $20,266, compared to $-0- for the same period of 2019.  All sales were attributable to Top Kontrol.

 

Sales for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 were negatively impacted by the continuing COVID-19 pandemic.  In particular, we have encountered numerous delays in establishing a group training and certification program necessary to educate and authorize automobile technicians to safely and properly install and repair our Top Kontrol product.  It is simply not safe for groups of people to gather within the confines of small interior areas, which are typical of most automobile repair bays where we would typically perform this type of hands-on training.

 

We were hosting modified COVID-19 aware classes in September 2020 and October 2020, but then it became too cold to continue this revised program.  The revised training and certification program was held outdoors in open parking lots.  


24


Participants observed personal COVID-19 safety measures, including sanitizing hands, wearing masks, and maintaining social distancing protocols.

 

As of March 18, 2021, we are only conducting indoor training sessions in one-on-one situations to minimize the risks related to COVID-19.  We hope to resume our outdoor training classes once again in the spring when the snow melts and the weather becomes more conducive to our purposes.

 

Having a limited number of Top Kontrol Certified Technicians available to install Top Kontrol is significantly restricting the number of customer installations being performed, which is subsequently influencing retail customers to delay purchases until they can have it readily installed in their vehicle.

 

However, because we did not commence marketing and selling Top Kontrol before this pandemic, we have no historical perspective to quantify or speculate on the extent COVID-19 is having on our sales and overall financial condition.

 

Cost of Goods Sold

 

Our cost of goods sold consists primarily of purchasing components and circuitry from various vendors then utilizing third-party contract manufacturing facilities to produce our products, with final assembly conducted at our Minnesota headquarters.  Cost of goods sold for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 was $5,882, compared to $-0- for the same period of 2019.  As a percentage of overall sales, cost of goods sold was 29.0% during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.

 

Gross Profit

 

Gross profit for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 was $14,384, compared to $-0- for the same period of 2019.  Our gross profit margin was 71.0% during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.

Our operating expenses consisted of two components: general and administrative expenses and research and development expenses.  Total operating expenses were $78,825 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, compared to $61,286 for the same period of 2019, representing an increase in operating expenses of $17,539, or 28.6%, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.

 

General and administrative expenses consisted of selling, general and administrative expenses, legal and accounting expenses, and regulatory compliance expenses.  During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 our general and administrative expenses were $78,395, compared to $52,281 for the same period of 2019, representing an increase of $26,114, or 50.0%.  The increase in general and administrative expenses is the result of higher accounting and regulatory compliance expenses and expenses related to selling Top Kontrol.

 

Research and development expenses are expenses related to the development and certification of our products.  During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 our research and development expenses were $430, which were attributable to a new product under development, which has been temporarily suspended due to COVID-19 travel and local “lock-down” mandates currently in place. Our research and development expenses for the same period of 2019 were $9,005, which were attributable to final development expenses associated with Top Kontrol.  The result was a decrease in research and development expenses of ($8,575), or (95.2%).  Research and development expenses will continue to vary considerably, depending on the product cycle.  Presently, we are developing our second product and expect to incur continued research and development expenses before its commercial release.

Loss From Operations

 

As a result of the preceding, our loss from operations was ($64,441) during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, compared with ($61,286) for the same period of 2019.  This $3,155, or 5.2%, increase in our loss from operations is the result of a significant increase in our general and administrative expenses, which was nearly offset by our sales of Top Kontrol.

 

Net Loss

 

As a result of the preceding, our net loss was ($64,441) during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, compared with ($61,286) for the same period of 2019.  This $3,155, or 5.2%, increase in our net loss is the result of a significant increase in our general and administrative expenses, which was nearly offset by our sales of Top Kontrol.

 

Total Stockholders’ Equity.

 

Our stockholders’ equity was $135,967 as of December 31, 2020.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our principal demands for liquidity are related to our efforts to generate sales, produce inventory, and for expenditures related to sales, regulatory compliance, and general corporate purposes.  We intend to meet our liquidity demands, including capital expenditures related to the manufacture of inventory and the expansion of our business, primarily through cash flow provided by operations and sales of our securities.

 

We rely primarily on internally generated cash flow and available working capital to support operations and growth.  As of December 31, 2020, we did not have any credit facilities.  Although we believe that our current cash and anticipated cash receipts from Top Kontrol sales will be sufficient to meet our planned working capital requirements and capital expenditures over the next 12 months, we are always exploring additional sources of new capital.  Without limiting our available options, future financings will most likely be through the sale of additional shares of our common stock.  We may also include warrants, options, and/or rights in conjunction with any future issuances of our common stock.  However, we can give no assurance that future financing will be available to us and, if available to us, in amounts or on terms acceptable to us.

 

We had net working capital of $135,967 as of December 31, 2020, an increase of $1,453, or 1.1%, from net working capital of $134,514 as of December 31, 2019.  The ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 49-to-1 on December 31, 2020.

 

The following is a summary of cash provided by or used in each of the indicated types of activities during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019:

Impact of the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) Pandemic

 

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, which causes the disease known as COVID-19, was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China. Since then, COVID-19 coronavirus has spread globally. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic and the U.S. government-imposed travel restrictions on travel between the United States, Europe, and many other countries worldwide. The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly negatively affected the global economy, significantly disrupted global supply chains, and created a significant disruption of the financial and retail markets, including a substantial disruption and dampening in consumer demand for the automotive industry, including specialty equipment manufacturers such as ourselves.

 

Because we began manufacturing and selling Top Kontrol during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, we cannot determine, compare, or estimate with any degree of accuracy to what extent the pandemic may be hindering our sales efforts.  While we believe this pandemic has had a material impact on our business growth and launching Top Kontrol, we do not have enough operating history to accurately evaluate or quantify the extent this pandemic may have impacted the following areas of our business:

 

 

Raw material and component supply chains

 

Product sales

 

Training and educating prospective Top Kontrol Certified Technicians

 

Marketing and advertising efficiencies

 

In addition to the preceding, we believe that sales for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 were negatively impacted by the continuing COVID-19 pandemic.  In particular, we have encountered numerous delays in establishing a group training and certification program necessary to educate and authorize automobile technicians to safely and properly install and repair our Top Kontrol product.  It is simply not safe for groups of people to gather within the confines of small interior areas, which are typical of most automobile repair bays where we would typically perform this type of hands-on training.

 

Having a limited number of Top Kontrol Certified Technicians available to install Top Kontrol is significantly restricting the number of customer installations being performed, which is subsequently influencing retail customers to delay purchases until they can have it readily installed in their vehicle.

 

However, because we did not commence marketing and selling Top Kontrol before this pandemic, we have no historical perspective to quantify or speculate on the extent COVID-19 is having on our sales and overall financial condition.

 

Uncertainties regarding the economic impact of COVID-19 are likely to result in sustained market turmoil while businesses remain shuttered (or operating at diminished capacity).  Many prospective customers remain home under government “lockdown” mandates, guidelines, and a general fear of leaving the safety of their homes, which may also negatively impact our business, financial condition, and cash flows for an unknown length of time.

Going Concern Consideration

 

Our independent registered public accounting firm has issued a going concern opinion in their audit report dated March 18, 2021, which can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”)


27


on March 18, 2021.  This means that our auditors believe there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an ongoing business for the next 12 months.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Operations

 

As of December 31, 2020, we had no off-balance sheet activities or operations.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Use of Estimates

 

The accompanying financial statements of SecureTech have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.  Because a precise determination of many assets and liabilities is dependent upon future events, the preparation of financial statements for a period necessarily involves the use of estimates which have been made using careful judgment.  Actual results may vary from these estimates.

 

The worldwide spread of COVID-19 has resulted in a global slowdown of economic activity, which is likely to decrease demand for a wide variety of goods and services while also disrupting supply chains, sales channels, marketing activities, and general business operations for an unknown period of time until the disease is contained at local, regional, and worldwide levels. At this point, the extent to which COVID-19 may impact our financial condition or results of operations is uncertain, and as of the date of issuance of these financial statements, we are not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require us to update our estimates, judgments, or adjust the carrying value of our assets or liabilities. These estimates may change as new events occur and additional information is obtained and is recognized in the financial statements as soon as they become known. Actual results could differ from those estimates and any such differences may be material to our financial statements.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, SecureTech considers highly liquid financial instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, SecureTech had no cash equivalents.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements” and ASC 825, Financial Instruments, requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. It establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. It prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:

 

Level

 

Description

 

 

 

Level 1

 

Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2

 

Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

Level 3

 

Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

Inventory and Cost of Sales

 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or realizable value, using the weighted average cost method. When an impairment indicator suggests that the carrying amounts of inventories might not be recoverable, Management reviews such carrying amounts and estimates the net realizable value based on the most reliable evidence available at that time. An impairment loss is recorded if the net realizable value is less than the carrying value. Impairment indicators considered for these purposes are, among others, obsolescence, decrease in market prices, damage, and a firm commitment to sell.


28


 

Net Loss per Share Calculation

 

Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period.   Diluted earnings per shares is computed similar to basic loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.  SecureTech excludes all potentially dilutive securities from its diluted net loss per share computation since their effect would be anti-dilutive because SecureTech recorded a loss for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC 606 — Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

 

SecureTech’s primary source of revenue is from the sale of our Top Kontrol product.  We began selling Top Kontrol in late April 2020.

 

Top Kontrol requires installation by a Certified Top Kontrol Technician.  To become a Certified Top Kontrol Technician, an automotive technician must complete a one-day hands-on course hosted by SecureTech.  Failure to have Top Kontrol installed by a Certified Top Kontrol Technician voids the product’s limited liability warranty.

 

Because of this professional installation requirement, SecureTech generally sells its products to and through Certified Top Kontrol Technicians and Authorized Dealers.  In the instances where SecureTech sells directly to the end-user, product installation is performed by authorized SecureTech personnel.

 

Revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with our customers are satisfied.  Revenue is recorded net of marketing allowances, volume discounts, and other forms of variable consideration.  Generally, this occurs with the transfer of control of our product to the customer and payment has been received.  SecureTech does not offer terms or credit to any of its customers.

 

Revenue Recognition; ASC 606 Five-Step Model

 

Under ASC 606, SecureTech recognizes revenue from the sale of service contracts by applying the following steps: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied.

 

Revenue Recognition; General Right of Return

 

Customers are allowed to return goods that are defective (warranty returns).  In some instances, customers may be allowed to return a limited number of units for periodic stock adjustment returns.  Such stock adjustment returns would be limited to no more than 5% of their total units sold.

 

As is standard in the industry, we only will accept returns from active customers.  If a customer ceases doing business with us, we have no further obligation to accept additional product returns from that customer.

 

Income Taxes

 

SecureTech accounts for income taxes pursuant to FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes.  Under FASB ASC 740-10-25, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the bases of certain assets and liabilities for income tax and financial reporting purposes.  The deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified according to the financial statement classification of the assets and liabilities generating the differences.

 

SecureTech maintains a valuation allowance with respect to deferred tax assets.  SecureTech establishes a valuation allowance based upon the potential likelihood of realizing the deferred tax asset and taking into consideration SecureTech’s financial position and results of operations for the current period.  Future realization of the deferred tax benefit depends on the existence of sufficient taxable income within the carryforward period under the Federal tax laws.

 


29


Changes in circumstances, such as SecureTech generating taxable income, could cause a change in judgment about its ability to realize the related deferred tax asset.  Any change in the valuation allowance will be included in income in the year of the change in estimate.

 

Election to Use Extended Transitional Period Under Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (“JOBS Act”)

 

We have elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards under Section 102(b)(2) of the JOBS Act, which allows us to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until those standards apply to private companies. As a result of this election, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of SecureTech Innovations, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of SecureTech Innovations, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2020, and the related notes (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, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2020, 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 audit 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.

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company had a going concern due to a continual net loss, stockholders’ deficiency and cash used in operations.

Auditing management’s evaluation of a going concern can be a significant judgment given the fact that the Company uses management estimates on future revenues and expenses which are not able to be substantiated.

To evaluate the appropriateness of the going concern, we examined and evaluate the financial information that was the initial cause along with management’s plans to mitigate the going concern and management’s disclosure on going concern.


F - 2


 

Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated 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 consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

SECURETECH INNOVATIONS, INC.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2020

 

 

NOTE 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Organization

 

SecureTech Innovations, Inc. (“Company” or “SecureTech”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Wyoming on March 2, 2017, under the name SecureTech, Inc.  The Company amended its Articles of Incorporation on December 20, 2017, to change its name to SecureTech Innovations, Inc.

 

SecureTech is an emerging growth company focused on developing and marketing personal and automobile security and safety devices and technologies.  Through a licensed patent, SecureTech has created its initial product, Top Kontrol.  Top Kontrol is unlike any other product on the market – it prioritizes the driver and passengers' safety.  Not only does Top Kontrol protect your vehicle from unattended theft like other car alarms, but it is the only anti-theft and personal safety device able to thwart an active carjacking attempt without any action by the driver.

 

Through its advanced design and use of a licensed patent, Top Kontrol can tell the difference between an authorized driver and an unauthorized thief or carjacker using strategically placed sensors in the automobile and a unique FOB device hidden on the authorized driver’s person.  Regardless of whether someone tries to steal your vehicle while it is innocently idling unattended in the parking lot or take it by force at gunpoint, Top Kontrol will only allow the unauthorized driver to drive for 15-20 seconds before automatically turning the engine off and preventing any attempt to restart the engine.  This prevents the thief from stealing your car and/or allows the driver sufficient time to run to safety after being threatened at gunpoint.  SecureTech is not aware of any other product on the market that solves the carjacking problem in the manner of Top Kontrol.

 

Because Top Kontrol is wired into the automobile’s ignition and lighting systems, it must be installed and serviced by a Top Kontrol Certified Technician.

 

Impact of the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) Pandemic

 

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, which causes the disease known as COVID-19, was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China. Since then, COVID-19 coronavirus has spread globally. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic and the U.S. government-imposed travel restrictions on travel between the United States, Europe, and many other countries worldwide. The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly negatively affected the global economy, significantly disrupted global supply chains, and created a significant disruption of the financial and retail markets, including a substantial disruption and dampening in consumer demand for the automotive industry, including specialty equipment manufacturers such as ourselves.

 

Because we began manufacturing and selling Top Kontrol during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, we cannot determine, compare, or estimate with any degree of accuracy to what extent the pandemic may be hindering our sales efforts.  While we believe this pandemic has had a material impact on our business growth and launching Top Kontrol, we do not have enough operating history to accurately evaluate or quantify the extent this pandemic may have impacted the following areas of our business:

 

 

Raw material and component supply chains

 

Product sales

 

Training and educating prospective Top Kontrol Certified Technicians

 

Marketing and advertising efficiencies

 

In addition to the preceding, we believe that sales for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 were negatively impacted by the continuing COVID-19 pandemic.  In particular, we have encountered numerous delays in establishing a group training and certification program necessary to educate and authorize automobile technicians to safely and properly install and repair our Top Kontrol product.  It is simply not safe for groups of people to gather within the confines of small interior areas, which are typical of most automobile repair bays where we would typically perform this type of hands-on training.


F - 8


Having a limited number of Top Kontrol Certified Technicians available to install Top Kontrol is significantly restricting the number of customer installations being performed, which is subsequently influencing retail customers to delay purchases until they can have it readily installed in their vehicle.

 

However, because we did not commence marketing and selling Top Kontrol before this pandemic, we have no historical perspective to quantify or speculate on the extent COVID-19 is having on our sales and overall financial condition.

 

Uncertainties regarding the economic impact of COVID-19 are likely to result in sustained market turmoil while businesses remain shuttered (or operating at diminished capacity).  Many prospective customers remain home under government “lockdown” mandates, guidelines, and a general fear of leaving the safety of their homes, which may also negatively impact our business, financial condition, and cash flows for an unknown length of time.

 

Uncertainties regarding the economic impact of COVID-19 are likely to result in sustained market turmoil while businesses remain shuttered (or operating at diminished capacity).  Many prospective customers remain home under government “lockdown” mandates, guidelines, and a general fear of leaving the safety of their homes, which may also negatively impact our business, financial condition, and cash flows for an unknown length of time.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“US GAAP”) for financial information and in accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) Regulation S-X.  They reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of the Company’s management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and operating results as of and for the fiscal periods ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The accompanying financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.  Because a precise determination of many assets and liabilities is dependent upon future events, the preparation of financial statements for a period necessarily involves the use of estimates which have been made using careful judgment.  Actual results may vary from these estimates.

 

The worldwide spread of COVID-19 has resulted in a global slowdown of economic activity, which is likely to decrease demand for a broad variety of goods and services while also disrupting supply chains, sales channels, marketing activities, and general business operations for an unknown period of time until the disease is contained at local, regional, and worldwide levels. At this point, the extent to which COVID-19 may impact our financial condition or results of operations is uncertain. As of the date of issuance of these financial statements, we are not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require us to update our estimates, judgments, or adjust the carrying value of our assets or liabilities. These estimates may change as new events occur and additional information is obtained and is recognized in the financial statements as soon as they become known. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and any such differences may be material to our financial statements.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers highly liquid financial instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had no cash equivalents.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements” and ASC 825, Financial Instruments, requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. It establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. It prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:


F - 9


 

 

Level

 

Description

 

 

 

Level 1

 

Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2

 

Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

Level 3

 

Applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

Inventory and Cost of Sales

 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or realizable value, using the weighted average cost method. When an impairment indicator suggests that the carrying amounts of inventories might not be recoverable, the Company reviews such carrying amounts and estimates the net realizable value based on the most reliable evidence available at that time. An impairment loss is recorded if the net realizable value is less than the carrying value. Impairment indicators considered for these purposes are, among others, obsolescence, decrease in market prices, damage, and a firm commitment to sell.

 

Net Loss per Share Calculation

 

Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period.   Diluted earnings per shares is computed similar to basic loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive.  SecureTech excludes all potentially dilutive securities from its diluted net loss per share computation since their effect would be anti-dilutive because SecureTech recorded a loss for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC 606 — Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

 

The Company’s primary source of revenue is from the sale of our Top Kontrol product.  We began selling Top Kontrol in late April 2020.

 

Top Kontrol requires installation by a Certified Top Kontrol Technician.  To become a Certified Top Kontrol Technician, an automotive technician must complete a one-day hands-on course hosted by the Company.  Failure to have Top Kontrol installed by a Certified Top Kontrol Technician voids the product’s limited liability warranty.

 

Because of this professional installation requirement, the Company sells its products to and through Authorized Dealers and Certified Top Kontrol Technicians.  In the instances where the Company sells directly to the end-user, product installation must be performed by authorized Company personnel.

 

Revenue is recognized when performance obligations under the terms of a contract with our customers are satisfied.  Revenue is recorded net of marketing allowances, volume discounts, and other forms of variable consideration.  Generally, this occurs with the transfer of control of our product to the customer and payment has been received.  The Company does not offer terms or credit to any of its customers.

 

Revenue Recognition; ASC 606 Five-Step Model

 

Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue from the sale of service contracts by applying the following steps: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied.


F - 10


 

Revenue Recognition; General Right of Return

 

Customers are allowed to return goods that are defective (warranty returns).  In some instances, customers may be allowed to return a limited number of units for periodic stock adjustment returns.  Such stock adjustment returns would be limited to no more than 5% of their total units sold.

 

As is standard in the industry, we only will accept returns from active customers.  If a customer ceases doing business with us, we have no further obligation to accept additional product returns from that customer.

 

Revenue Recognition; Concentration

 

As of December 31, 2020, the Company had three customers that each comprised in excess of 10% of the Company’s overall revenue.  In aggregate, these three customers represented 37.7% of the Company’s revenue for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.

 

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes.  Under FASB ASC 740-10-25, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the bases of certain assets and liabilities for income tax and financial reporting purposes.  The deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified according to the financial statement classification of the assets and liabilities generating the differences.

 

The Company maintains a valuation allowance with respect to deferred tax assets.  The Company establishes a valuation allowance based upon the potential likelihood of realizing the deferred tax asset and taking into consideration the Company’s financial position and results of operations for the current period.  Future realization of the deferred tax benefit depends on the existence of sufficient taxable income within the carryforward period under the Federal tax laws.

 

Changes in circumstances, such as the Company generating taxable income, could cause a change in judgment about its ability to realize the related deferred tax asset.  Any change in the valuation allowance will be included in income in the year of the change in estimate.

 

Fiscal Year

 

The Company elected December 31st for its fiscal year-end.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

There are various updates recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to a have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying financial statements during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, the Company has not established a source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating costs. As such, it has incurred an operating loss since its inception.  Further, as of December 31, 2020, the Company had an accumulated deficit of ($347,018).  These and other factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company’s existence depends on management’s ability to develop profitable operations and obtain additional financing sources. There can be no assurance that the Company’s financing efforts will result in profitable operations or resolve the Company’s liquidity problems. The accompanying statements do not include any adjustments that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3 – OTHER CURRENT ASSETS

 

Other current assets are comprised of a variety of assets such as deposits, undeposited funds, and so forth.  The following table summarizes the Company’s current assets as of December 31, 2020 and 2019:

NOTE 4 – INVENTORIES

 

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or realizable value, using the weighted average cost method. When an impairment indicator suggests that the carrying amounts of inventories might not be recoverable, the Company reviews such carrying amounts and estimates the net realizable value based on the most reliable evidence available at that time. An impairment loss is recorded if the net realizable value is less than the carrying value. Impairment indicators considered for these purposes are, among others, obsolescence, decrease in market prices, damage, and a firm commitment to sell.  The following table summarizes the Company’s inventories as of December 31, 2020 and 2019:

As of December 31, 2020, the Company had approximately $347,018 in tax loss carryforwards that can be utilized in future periods to reduce taxable income through 2040.


F - 12


The Company provided a valuation allowance equal to the deferred income tax assets for the period from March 2, 2017 (inception) to December 31, 2020 because it is not presently known whether future taxable income will be sufficient to utilize the tax loss carryforwards.

 

The Company has no uncertain tax positions.

From time to time, the Company may become subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of our business activities.  However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties for which the outcome cannot be predicted.  Any adverse result in these or other legal matters could arise and cause harm to the Company’s business.  The Company currently is not party to any claim or litigation the outcome of which, if determined adversely to the Company, would individually or in the aggregate be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business.

Item 9.  Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

 

None.

 

 

Item 9A.  Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Based on an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of SecureTech’s management, our Principle Executive Office and Principle Financial Officer have concluded that SecureTech’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”) were effective as of December 31, 2020 to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by SecureTech in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated SecureTech’s management, including our Principle Executive Office and Principle Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

SecureTech’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Management assessed the effectiveness of SecureTech’s internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria set forth in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework). Based on this assessment, management has concluded that its internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2020 to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP.

 

This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an audit report on internal control over financial reporting by SecureTech’s registered public accounting firm. SecureTech’s internal control over financial reporting was not subject to audit by the its registered public accounting firm pursuant to the SEC’s Exchange Act Rule 12b-2 that permits SecureTech to provide only management’s assessment report for the year ended December 31, 2020.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in SecureTech’s internal control over financial reporting which occurred during the fiscal period ended December 31, 2020, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.

 

Inherent Limitations of Internal Control

 

Management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, does not expect that SecureTech’s internal controls will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. No matter how well designed and operated, a control system can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, 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. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of internal controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. Also, any evaluation of the effectiveness of internal controls in future periods is subject to the risk that those internal controls may become inadequate because of changes in business conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Abdulcadir Haji is a co-founder and has served as a member of our Board of Directors since our inception in March 2017.  Mr. Haji concurrently serves as the President and Chief Executive Officer of African Resource Group, Inc., positions he has held since founding the company in March 2013.

32


 

Term of Office

 

Our directors are appointed for a one-year term to hold office until the next annual general meeting of our shareholders or until removed from office in accordance with our Bylaws. Our officers are appointed by our board of directors and hold office until removed by the board.

 

Family Relationships

 

There are no family relationships between or among the directors, executive officers, or persons nominated or chosen by us to become directors or executive officers.

 

Committees of the Board of Directors

 

We do not presently have a separately constituted audit committee, compensation committee, nominating committee, executive committee, or any other committee of our Board of Directors. As such, our entire Board of Directors acts as our audit committee.

 

Audit Committee Financial Expert

 

Our Board of Directors does not currently have any member who qualifies as an audit committee financial expert. We believe that the cost of retaining such a financial expert at this time is prohibitive. Further, because we are a smaller reporting company, we believe the services of an audit committee financial expert are not necessary at this time.

 

Involvement in Legal Proceedings

 

None of our officers or directors – past or present – have appeared as a party during the past ten (10) years in any legal proceedings that may bear on their ability or integrity to serve as an officer or director of SecureTech.

 

Code of Ethics

 

We do not currently have a Code of Ethics applicable to our principal executive, financial and accounting officers.

 

Potential Conflict of Interest

 

Since we do not have an audit or compensation committee comprised of independent directors, the functions that would have been performed by such committees are performed by our Board of Directors. Thus, there is a potential conflict of interest in that our officers and directors have the authority to determine issues concerning management compensation, including their own personal compensation package and audit issues that may affect management decisions. We are not aware of any other conflicts of interest with our sole officer and director.

Board of Director’s Role in Risk Oversight

 

The Board of Directors assesses on an ongoing basis the risks faced by SecureTech.  These risks include financial, technological, competitive, and operational risks.  The Board of Directors dedicates time at each of its meetings to review and consider the relevant risks faced at that time.  Additionlly, since SecureTech does not have an Audit Committee, the Board of Directors is also responsible for the assessment and oversight of SecureTech’s financial risk exposures.

 

Compliance with Section 16(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

 

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, require SecureTech’s executive officers, directors and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of SecureTech's equity securities, to file with the SEC initial statements of beneficial ownership, reports of changes in ownership, and annual reports concerning their ownership of common stock and other equity securities of SecureTech on Form(s) 3, 4, and 5, respectively. Executive officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish SecureTech with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file.

 

Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms received by us, or written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, all filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors, and greater than 10% percent beneficial owners were complied with and that there were no deficiencies.

Changes in Control

 

We are unaware of any contract or other arrangement that could result in a change of control of SecureTech.

 

Item 13.  Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence

 

Related Party Transactions

 

On March 2, 2017, SecureTech entered into a Patent License Agreement with Shongkawh, LLC (“Licensing Agreement”), which is controlled by our executive officers Kao Lee and Anthony Vang (and directly owned by Mr. Lee and his brother, Thao Lee) is deemed a related party.  This Licensing Agreement gives us exclusive use and control of United States Patent No. 8,436,721.

 

Under the Licensing Agreement terms, ShongKawh is to receive a royalty of 2% of all products manufactured under this patent, which includes our Top Kontrol product.  The 2% royalty is based on SecureTech’s selling price of any products utilizing this patent, which would typically be the wholesale price we offer to distributors.  Royalties are to accrue and be paid in quarterly calendar payments.

 

We cannot project what these royalties may amount to at this time, if any, but we do not believe they will exceed $120,000 in any given calendar year.

 

Indemnification

 

Section 78.138 of the Wyoming Revised Statutes (“WRS”) provides that directors and officers of Wyoming corporations may, under certain circumstances, be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) and other liabilities actually and reasonably incurred by them as a result of any suit brought against them in their capacity as a director or officer, if they acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, if they had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful. WRS also provides that directors and officers may also be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by them in connection with a derivative suit if they acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification may be made without court approval if such person was adjudged liable to the corporation.

 

Further, Article X of our bylaws contains provisions which allows SecureTech indemnify its officers, directors, employees and agents.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to the 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 Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

 

In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the small business issuer of expenses incurred or paid by a directors, officers or controlling person of the small business issuer 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 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.

 

Corporate Governance and Director Independence

 

Our Board of Directors has not established Audit, Compensation, and Nominating or Governance Committees as standing committees. The Board does not have an executive committee or any committees performing a similar function. We are not currently listed on a national securities exchange or in an inter-dealer quotation system that requires a majority of the board of directors be independent. Our Directors have determined that they are not “independent” under the definition set forth in the NASDAQ Stock Market's listing standards, which is the definition that the Board has chosen to use to determine director independence. Therefore, our directors are not independent.


37


 

Disclosure of Commission Position on Indemnification for Securities Act Liabilities

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the registrant has been informed 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.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Auditors

 

Given the small size of our Board of Directors and the limited financial resources and minimal operations of SecureTech, our Board acts as our Audit Committee.
