In this annual report on Form 10-K, the terms “ECTX,” “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to Eco Tek 360, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

 

General Overview

 

Global Fiber Technologies, Inc. was incorporated in Nevada on March 25, 2005 as “Premier Publishing Group, Inc.”. Originally formed as a publishing company, the Company ceased its publishing operations in or around 2007.

 

After ceasing the publishing operations, the Company’s operations consisted solely of utilizing the expertise of our Board Members and outside agents to further the efforts our advisory services business plan through a wholly-owned subsidiary known as Trident Merchant Group, Inc.

 

In addition, during the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company became involved in the manufacturing and global distribution of ladies’ apparel. During the second quarter, 2014 the Company formed Leading Edge Fashions, LLC of which it controlled 51% of the membership interest. Effective December 31, 2014 the Company's Board of Directors determined it was in the best interest of the Company to discontinue the operations of Leading Edge Fashions, LLC, and in 2014 the Company stopped developing a footprint in the apparel business due to cash restraints and logistics and ceased agreements with all third-parties to distribute their products into SE Asia and China.

 

Trident has also ceased operations to concentrate on the opportunities related to rejuvenating fibers and re-purposing them into finished products.

 

The Company created a new limited liability company, Pure361, LLC ("Pure361") in May 2015 for the purpose of operating the portion of the Company's business that is involved with the collection, rejuvenation and manufacturing of garments and other accessories for the uniform marketplace that serves the hospitality, food service, medical, manufacturing, education, military, transportation and other commercial uniform industries. The Company owns 51% of Pure361. Pure361 entered into a license agreement with Pure System International Ltd. ("Pure"), the minority owner of Pure 361, related to potential future operations in which Pure361 was granted the exclusive license to use certain licensed intellectual property related to the manufacturing of uniforms from recyclable waste. Pure361 has had no operations to date, nor did it have any assets or liabilities as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 respectively.

   

The Company created a new subsidiary, ECO CHAIN 360, Inc. in November 2018 for the purpose of operating as an intermediary providing an expedited trading platform for buyers and sellers to efficiently consummate fiber transactions. The Company owns 51% of ECO CHAIN 360, Inc. ECO CHAIN 360, Inc. has had no operations to date nor did it have assets or liabilities as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

 

On June 18, 2019, the Company completed its acquisition of assets from AH Originals, Inc. (“AHO”), a corporation controlled by the same owner group of Global Fiber Technologies, Inc., for the consideration of 6,400,000 shares of common stock of the Company to be issued and the issuance of a promissory note of $447,150 that bears 3% interest per annum and have a one year term with eight options to extend the maturity date for three-month periods. In addition, the Company issued to AHO 200,000 common shares of Authentic Heroes, Inc. (“AHI”), a subsidiary created by the Company, to hold the purchased assets. AHI has commenced minimal operations as of December 31, 2019.

 

Our address is 50 Division Street Suite 500, Somerset NJ 08873. Our corporate website is http://globalfibertechnologies.com/.

 

We have never declared bankruptcy or been in receivership. We have earned minimal revenues and have limited cash on hand. We have sustained losses since inception and have primarily relied upon the sale of our securities and loans from related parties for funding.

 

Our Current Business

 

Global Fiber Technologies, Inc. comprised of three separate operating subsidiaries which are driving fiber industry innovation through technologies related to fiber rejuvenation, authentication and distribution. The Company’s business plan is to operate a fiber rejuvenation technology company. It plans on offering branded fabrics, apparel and uniforms to the corporate, hotel, hospital and military markets. We will achieve this by utilizing a patented and proprietary process for rejuvenating textile waste into high quality fabrics and apparel.

The Rejuvenated Uniform Segment

 

In April 2015, we entered into a joint venture and license agreement with Pure Systems International, Ltd. to produce and market garments and other accessories for the commercial uniform marketplace and other market verticals by utilizing Pure Systems International, Ltd.’s patented processes to up-cycle pre-consumer textile waste into reusable fiber of equal or better quality than the original fabric. (the “Rejuvenated Fiber”)

 

In May of 2015, the Company created a new limited liability company, Pure361, LLC (“Pure361”) of which the Company owns 51% and Pure Systems International, Ltd. owns 49%. Pure361 has the exclusive licensee to use Pure System International Ltd.’s patented Rejuvenated Fiber in conjunction with the commercial uniform marketplace and other market verticals.

 

Ms Joy Nunn, the company’s former CTO and Board member resigned as of February 14, 2017, but the company still maintains a license with Pure System International, Ltd.

 

To further strengthen its capabilities in the Rejuvenated Uniform segment the Company has identified alternative technologies to those under license from Pure Systems. The company will be developing customers using this alternative technology by working with equipment vendors and toll manufacturers to produce sales samples.

 

The Rejuvenated Cardboard Segment

 

In conjunction with its focus on rejuvenated technologies, the Company is exploring the possibility of also manufacturing a rejuvenated cardboard product, and is in the early stages of exploring this potential opportunity.

   

Competition

 

In the uniform and related products segment, we will compete with many firms, including corporations with large divisions, many of these companies have great financial, technical or marketing resources, longer operating histories, greater brand recognition or larger customer bases than we do and may be able to respond more effectively to changing business and economic conditions than we can. The nature and degree of competition varies with the customer and the market. Industry statistics are not available.

 

Competitive pricing may require us to reduce our future prices, which would impact future profitability or result in lost sales. Our competitors, many of whom have greater resources than we do, may be better able to withstand these price reductions and lost sales.

 

Seasonality

 

We do not have a seasonal business cycle.

 

Employees

 

We have no employees. Our officers and directors furnish their time to the development of the Company at no cost and intend to do whatever work is necessary in order to generate revenues. We do not foresee hiring any employees in the near future.

 

Research and Development

 

We have not incurred any research and development expenditures over the last two fiscal years.

 

Intellectual Property

 

We do not currently own any intellectual property.

One matter is entitled Randazzo LLC v. Avani Holdings LLC & Global Fashion Technologies, Inc. This litigation was initiated by the plaintiff in order to evict Avani Holdings LLC from its rented premises in California and to recover unpaid rent. Our company does not operate out of the premises in question and has never signed any leases or other documents with the plaintiff. A judgment of eviction was entered, but our company does not operate out of the premises in question and therefore did not appear in the matter to oppose the judgment of eviction. The plaintiff is also seeking unpaid rent in the amount of $26,595.

 

The second matter is entitled Patricia Witthuhn v. Global Fashion Technologies, Inc. This litigation was initiated by the plaintiff in order to collect wages allegedly due pursuant to her employment with Avani Holdings LLC. Our company never hired Ms. Witthuhn and never acquired Avani Holdings, LLC. Consequently, there is no legitimate cause of action against our company. However, due to cash flow constraints, our company is unable to hire outside counsel for this litigation. The amount being sought by the plaintiff is approximately $15,000.

Contractual Obligations

 

As a “smaller reporting company”, we are not required to provide tabular disclosure obligations.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $32,685,425 and $31,023,302 as of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, which include net losses of $1,662,123 and $445,254 for the years ended December 31, 2019, and 2018, respectively. In addition as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company had a working capital deficit of $3,198,598 and $1667,899 respectively, with limited cash resources available. Consequently, the aforementioned items raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. Management plans to raise additional debt or equity and continue to settle obligations by issuing stock. Management plans to continue to raise additional debt and equity until the Company has positive cash flows from an operating company.

 

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to repay or settle its current indebtedness, generate positive cash flow from an operating company, and/or raise capital through equity and debt financing or other means on desirable terms. If the Company is unable to obtain additional funds when they are required or if the funds cannot be obtained on favorable terms, management may be required to restructure the Company or cease operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.

Critical Accounting Policies

 

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP, which requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions and apply judgments. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience, current trends and other factors that management believes to be important at the time the financial statements are prepared and actual results could differ from our estimates and such differences could be material. Due to the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain, materially different amounts could be reported under different conditions or using different assumptions. On a regular basis, we review our critical accounting policies and how they are applied in the preparation our financial statements. Please refer to “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” as included in this Annual Report, for disclosures regarding the Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the valuation of common stock and options issued as stock based compensation.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue from its contracts with customers in accordance with ASC 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company recognizes revenues when satisfying the performance obligation of the associated contract that reflects the consideration expected to be received based on the terms of the contract.

 

Revenue related to contracts with customers is evaluated utilizing the following steps: (i) Identify the contract, or contracts, with a customer; (ii) Identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) Determine the transaction price; (iv) Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; (v) Recognize revenue when the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

 

Leases

 

Effective October 1, 2019, the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (the “FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”), and additional ASUs issued to clarify and update the guidance in ASU 2016-02 (collectively, the “new leases standard”), which modifies lease accounting for lessees to increase transparency and comparability by recording lease assets and liabilities for operating leases and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The Company adopted the new leases standard utilizing the modified retrospective transition method, under which amounts in prior periods presented were not restated. For contracts existing at the time of adoption, the Company elected to not reassess (i) whether any are or contain leases, (ii) lease classification, and (iii) initial direct costs. Upon adoption, the Company recorded $62,356 of right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and $62,356 of lease liabilities on its Consolidated Balance Sheet.

 

Stock-based Compensation

 

We account for stock-based awards at fair value on the date of grant, and recognize compensation over the service-period that they are expected to vest. We estimate the fair value of stock options and stock purchase warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The estimated value of the portion of a stock-based award that is ultimately expected to vest, taking into consideration estimated forfeitures, is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods. The model includes subjective input assumptions that can materially affect the fair value estimates. The expected volatility is estimated based on the most recent historical period of time, of other comparative securities, equal to the weighted average life of the options. The estimate of stock awards that will ultimately vest requires judgment, and to the extent that actual forfeitures differ from estimated forfeitures, such differences are accounted for as a cumulative adjustment to compensation expenses and recorded in the period that estimates are revised. For the year ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company incurred $83,574 and $11,700 for stock based compensation, respectively.

Fair Value

 

FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”) establishes a framework for all fair value measurements and expands disclosures related to fair value measurement and developments. ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

 

ASC 820 requires that assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

 

Level 1Quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets or observable inputs;

Level 2Significant other observable inputs that can be corroborated by observable market data; and

Level 3Significant unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data.

 

The Company analyzed the conversion option for derivative accounting consideration under ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” and determined that the convertible notes should be classified as a liability since the conversion option becomes effective at issuance resulting in there being no explicit limit to the number of shares to be delivered upon settlement of the above conversion options. The Company accounts for convertible notes and warrants as a derivative liabilities due to there being no explicit limit to the number of shares to be delivered upon settlement of all conversion options.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, ASC Subtopic 470-20 “Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options”. The standard reduced the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock. Convertible instruments that continue to be subject to separation models are (1) those with embedded conversion features that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract, that meet the definition of a derivative, and that do not qualify for a scope exception from derivative accounting; and, (2) convertible debt instruments issued with substantial premiums for which the premiums are recorded as paid-in capital. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of this standard on its financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors

of Eco Tek 360, Inc.

 

OPINION ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Eco Tek 360, Inc. and its subsidiaries   (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2018, the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2018, 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, 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

EXPLANATORY PARAGRAPH – GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully explained in Note 1, the Company has incurred losses since inception, has an accumulated deficit of $31,023,302 and a cash balance of approximately $29,000 as of December 31, 2018 and needs to raise substantial amounts of additional funds to meet its obligations and commence its operations.   These conditions raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

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 audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

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

 

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the 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 audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

GLOBAL FIBER TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

(FORMERLY ECO TEK 360, INC.)

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2019

 

NOTE 1 – DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND GOING CONCERN

 

Global Fiber Technologies, Inc. (“the Company”) was incorporated in Nevada on March 25, 2005. As of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had 400,000,000 shares of authorized common stock.

 

During the second quarter, 2014 the Company formed Leading Edge Fashions, LLC of which it controls 51%. Effective December 31, 2014 the Company’s Board of Directors determined it was in the best interest of the Company to discontinue the operations of Leading Edge Fashions, LLC.

 

The Company created a new limited liability company, Pure361, LLC (“Pure361”) in May 2015 for the purpose of operating the portion of the Company’s business that is involved with the collection, rejuvenation and manufacturing of garments and other accessories for the uniform marketplace that serves the hospitality, food service, medical, manufacturing, education, military, transportation and other commercial uniform industries. The Company owns 51% of Pure361. Pure361 entered into a license agreement with Pure System International Ltd. (“Pure”), the minority owner of Pure 361, related to potential future operations in which Pure361 was granted the exclusive license to use certain licensed intellectual property related to the manufacturing of uniforms from recyclable waste. Pure361 has had no operations to date nor did it have assets or liabilities as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

 

The Company created a new wholly owned subsidiary, Progressive Fashions Inc. (“PFI”) in February 2016 for the purpose of designing, producing and marketing the EMME® Activewear Collection. On June 5, 2017 the Company and True Beauty, LLC (the company that controls the EMME® trademark) terminated the license agreement. PFI has had no operations to date nor did it have assets or liabilities as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

 

The Company created a new subsidiary, ECO CHAIN 360, Inc. in November 2018 for the purpose of operating as an intermediary providing an expedited trading platform for buyers and sellers to efficiently consummate fiber transactions. The Company owns 51% of ECO CHAIN 360, Inc. ECO CHAIN 360, Inc. has had no operations to date nor did it have assets or liabilities as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

 

On June 18, 2019, the Company completed its acquisition of assets from AH Originals, Inc. (“AHO”), a corporation controlled by the same owner group of Global Fiber Technologies, Inc., for the consideration of 6,400,000 shares of common stock of the Company to be issued and the issuance of a promissory note of $447,150 that bears 3% interest per annum and have a one year term with eight options to extend the maturity date for three-month periods. In addition, the Company issued to AHO 200,000 common shares of Authentic Heroes, Inc. (“AHI”), a subsidiary created by the Company, to hold the purchased assets. AHI has commenced minimal operations as of December 31, 2019.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $32,685,425 and $31,023,302 as of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, which include net losses of $1,662,123 and $445,254 for the year ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. In addition, as of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had a working capital deficit of $3,198,598 and $1,667,899 respectively, with limited cash resources available. Consequently, the aforementioned items raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. Management plans to raise additional debt or equity and continue to settle obligations by issuing stock. Management plans to continue to raise additional debt and equity until the Company has positive cash flows from an operating company.

 

The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to repay or settle its current indebtedness, generate positive cash flow from an operating company, and/or raise capital through equity and debt financing or other means on desirable terms. If the Company is unable to obtain additional funds when they are required or if the funds cannot be obtained on favorable terms, management may be required to restructure the Company or cease operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and are presented in US dollars. The Company uses the accrual basis of accounting and has adopted a December 31 fiscal year end.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include all of the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Trident Merchant Group, Inc. and Progressive Fashions Inc., and its majority owned subsidiaries, Leading Edge Fashion, LLC, Pure361, LLC and ECO CHAIN 360, Inc. which are 51% owned. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. As noted above in Note 1, our 51% owned subsidiaries, Pure361, Leading Edge Fashions, LLC and ECO CHAIN 360, Inc., had no operations, assets or liabilities as of December 31, 2019 and 2018. Because of this, a non-controlling interest is not reflected in these financial statements. In addition, the Company has consolidated Authentic Heroes, Inc., Inc. of which the Company owns 80%.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on reported consolidated net loss.

The long-lived assets of the Company are reviewed for impairment in accordance with ASC 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment” (“ASC 360”), whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. During the year ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, no impairment losses have been identified.

 

Intangible Assets

 

The Company accounts for intangible assets (including trademarks and website) in accordance with ASC 350 “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other” (“ASC 350”). ASC 350 requires that goodwill and other intangibles with indefinite lives be tested for impairment annually or on an interim basis if events or circumstances indicate that the fair value of an asset has decreased below its carrying value. In addition, ASC 350 requires that goodwill be tested for impairment at the reporting unit level (operating segment or one level below an operating segment) on an annual basis and between annual tests when circumstances indicate that the recoverability of the carrying amount of goodwill may be in doubt. Application of the goodwill impairment test requires judgment, including the identification of reporting units; assigning assets and liabilities to reporting units, assigning goodwill to reporting units, and determining the fair value. Significant judgments required to estimate the fair value of reporting units include estimating future cash flows, determining appropriate discount rates and other assumptions. Changes in these estimates and assumptions or the occurrence of one or more confirming events in future periods could cause the actual results or outcomes to materially differ from such estimates and could also affect the determination of fair value and/or goodwill impairment at future reporting dates.

 

The cost of intangible assets with determinable useful lives is amortized to reflect the pattern of economic benefits consumed, either on a straight-line or accelerated basis over the estimated periods benefited. Patents, technology and other intangibles with contractual terms are generally amortized over their respective legal or contractual lives. When certain events or changes in operating conditions occur, an impairment assessment is performed and lives of intangible assets with determinable lives may be adjusted.

 

On June 18, 2019, the Company acquired intangible assets from AH Originals, Inc. for an aggregate amount of $16,200, which includes website of $10,690 and patent of $5,510.

 

We amortize the cost of our intangible assets over the 15-year estimated useful life on a straight-line basis.

Amortization expense amounted to $639 and $0 for the year ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

 

Prepaid interest and deposits

 

Prepaid interest and deposits consist of prepaid consulting fees, OTC market annual fees and license agreement. Prepaid interest is amortized over the life of the related liability.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue from its contracts with customers in accordance with ASC 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company recognizes revenues when satisfying the performance obligation of the associated contract that reflects the consideration expected to be received based on the terms of the contract.

 

Revenue related to contracts with customers is evaluated utilizing the following steps: (i) Identify the contract, or contracts, with a customer; (ii) Identify the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) Determine the transaction price; (iv) Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; (v) Recognize revenue when the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivable are recorded in accordance with ASC 310, ”Receivables.” Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in its existing accounts receivable. The Company does not currently have any amount recorded as an allowance for doubtful accounts. Based on management’s estimate and based on all accounts being current, the Company has not deemed it necessary to reserve for doubtful accounts at this time.

 

Leases

 

Effective October 1, 2019, the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (the “FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”), and additional ASUs issued to clarify and update the guidance in ASU 2016-02 (collectively, the “new leases standard”), which modifies lease accounting for lessees to increase transparency and comparability by recording lease assets and liabilities for operating leases and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The Company adopted the new leases standard utilizing the modified retrospective transition method, under which amounts in prior periods presented were not restated. For contracts existing at the time of adoption, the Company elected to not reassess (i) whether any are or contain leases, (ii) lease classification, and (iii) initial direct costs. Upon adoption, the Company recorded $62,356 of right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and $62,356 of lease liabilities on its Consolidated Balance Sheet.

 

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method as stipulated by ASC 740 “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities or a change in tax rate is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced to estimated amounts to be realized by the use of a valuation allowance. A valuation allowance is applied when in management’s view it is more likely than not that such deferred tax asset will be unable to be utilized.

 

 
22

Table of Contents

   

The Company adopted certain provisions under ASC Topic 740, which provide interpretative guidance for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Effective with the Company’s adoption of these provisions, interest related to the unrecognized tax benefits is recognized in the financial statements as a component of income taxes.

 

In the unlikely event that an uncertain tax position exists in which the Company could incur income taxes, the Company would evaluate whether there is a probability that the uncertain tax position taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities. Reserves for uncertain tax positions would be recorded if the Company determined it is probable that a position would not be sustained upon examination or if payment would have to be made to a taxing authority and the amount is reasonably estimated. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company does not believe it has any uncertain tax positions that would result in the Company having a liability to the taxing authorities. The Company’s tax returns are subject to examination by the federal and state tax authorities for the years ended 2006 through 2019.

 

Stock-based Compensation

 

We account for stock-based awards at fair value on the date of grant, and recognize compensation over the service-period that they are expected to vest. We estimate the fair value of stock options and stock purchase warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The estimated value of the portion of a stock-based award that is ultimately expected to vest, taking into consideration estimated forfeitures, is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods. The model includes subjective input assumptions that can materially affect the fair value estimates. The expected volatility is estimated based on the most recent historical period of time, of other comparative securities, equal to the weighted average life of the options. The estimate of stock awards that will ultimately vest requires judgment, and to the extent that actual forfeitures differ from estimated forfeitures, such differences are accounted for as a cumulative adjustment to compensation expenses and recorded in the period that estimates are revised. For the year ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company incurred $83,574 and $11,700 for stock based compensation, respectively.

 

Beneficial Conversion Feature

 

For conventional convertible debt where the rate of conversion is below market value, the Company records any “beneficial conversion feature” (“BCF”) intrinsic value as additional paid in capital and related debt discount.

 

When the Company records a BCF, the relative fair value of the BCF is recorded as a debt discount against the face amount of the respective debt instrument. The discount is amortized over the life of the debt. If a conversion of the underlying debt occurs, a proportionate share of the unamortized amounts is immediately expensed.

 

Debt Issue Costs

 

The Company may pay debt issue costs in connection with raising funds through the issuance of debt whether convertible or not or with other consideration. These costs are recorded as debt discounts and are amortized over the life of the debt to the statement of operations as amortization of debt discount.

 

Original Issue Discount

 

If debt is issued with an original issue discount, the original issue discount is recorded to debt discount, reducing the face amount of the note and is amortized over the life of the debt to the statement of operations as amortization of debt discount. If a conversion of the underlying debt occurs, a proportionate share of the unamortized amounts is immediately expensed.

Table of Contents

 

Use of Accounting Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the valuation of stock based awards issued and derivatives embedded in financial instruments. Estimates are used in the determination of depreciation, the valuation of non-cash issuances of common stock, stock options and warrants, valuing convertible notes for beneficial conversion features, among others.

 

Fair Value

 

FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”) establishes a framework for all fair value measurements and expands disclosures related to fair value measurement and developments. ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

 

ASC 820 requires that assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

 

Level 1Quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets or observable inputs;

Level 2Significant other observable inputs that can be corroborated by observable market data; and

Level 3Significant unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data.

   

The following table summarizes fair value measurements by level at December 31, 2019, and 2018, measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The carrying value of short-term financial instruments, including cash, restricted cash, trade accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and short-term debt, approximates the fair value of these instruments. These financial instruments generally expose the Company to limited credit risk and have no stated maturities or have short-term maturities and carry interest rates that approximate market. The Company maintains cash balances at financial institutions that are insured by the FDIC. At December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company had no amounts in excess of the FDIC limit.

 

COVID-19

 

The Company’s operations and business have experienced disruption due to the unprecedented conditions surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic spreading throughout the United States and the world and thus the Company’s business operations have been disrupted and it is unable to timely review and prepare the Company’s financial statements for the 2019 fiscal year.

 

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China, which has and is continuing to spread throughout China and other parts of the world, including the United States. On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of the coronavirus disease (“COVID-19”) a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern,” and on March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization characterized the outbreak as a “pandemic”. Our operations are in Somerset, NJ which NJ as a whole is characterized as an area that has a “ high concentration of risk” as it relates to COVID-19.

The Company has been following the recommendations of local health authorities to minimize exposure risk for its employees for the past several weeks, including the temporary closures of its offices and having employees work remotely to the extent possible, which has to an extent adversely affected their efficiency. As a result, the Company’s books and records were not easily accessible, resulting in delays in preparation and completion of its financial statements. Further, the various governmental mandatory closures of businesses in these locations have precluded the Company’s personnel, particularly its senior accounting staff, from obtaining access to its subsidiaries’ books and records necessary to prepare the Company’s financial statements that, once audited, comprise the essence of the Annual Report.

 

New Accounting Pronouncements

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, ASC Subtopic 470-20 “Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options”. The standard reduced the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock. Convertible instruments that continue to be subject to separation models are (1) those with embedded conversion features that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract, that meet the definition of a derivative, and that do not qualify for a scope exception from derivative accounting; and, (2) convertible debt instruments issued with substantial premiums for which the premiums are recorded as paid-in capital. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of this standard on its financial statements.

 

NOTE 3 – CAPITAL STOCK

The Company has designated a “Class B Convertible Preferred Stock” (the “Class B Preferred”). The number of authorized shares totals 1,000,000 and the par value is $.001 per share.

The holders of Class B Preferred are entitled to receive all notices relating to voting as are required to be given to the holders of the Common Stock. The holders of shares of Class B Preferred shall be entitled to 10,000 votes per share. The Class B Preferred Stock will have the rights to liquidation as all classes of the Common Stock of the Company. The Class B Preferred stockholders are entitled to receive non-cumulative dividends at the rate of 8% per annum, and are accrued daily. The Class B Preferred Stock shall be redeemed by the Corporation for 100% of the original purchase price plus the amount of cash dividends accrued on the earlier of 6 months from the date of issuance, or the date that the Corporation received its funding from any outside source in conjunction with a merger, reverse merger or any change of control. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, either voluntary or involuntary, the holders of the Class B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any distribution of any assets of the Corporation to the holders of the Common Stock, the amount of $.035 per share plus any and all accrued but unpaid dividends.

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

 

There were no disagreements related to accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, internal controls or auditing scope or procedure during the two fiscal years and interim periods.

 

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation Of Disclosure Controls And Procedures

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer (our chief executive officer), we have conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded as of the evaluation date that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective such that the material information required to be included in our Securities and Exchange Commission reports is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officer, recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms relating to our company, particularly during the period when this report was being prepared.

 

Management’s Annual Report On Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, for our company.

 

Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of its management and directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

Management recognizes that there are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any system of internal control, and accordingly, even effective internal control can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and may not prevent or detect material misstatements. In addition, effective internal control at a point in time may become ineffective in future periods because of changes in conditions or due to deterioration in the degree of compliance with our established policies and procedures.

 

A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in there being a more than remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected.

Based on our evaluation under this framework, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of the evaluation date due to the factors stated below.

 

Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of evaluation date and identified the following material weaknesses:

 

Insufficient Resources: We have an inadequate number of personnel with requisite expertise in the key functional areas of finance and accounting.

 

Inadequate Segregation Of Duties: We have an inadequate number of personnel to properly implement control procedures.

 

Lack Of Audit Committee: We do not have a functioning audit committee resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures.

 

Management is committed to improving its internal controls and will (1) continue to use third party specialists to address shortfalls in staffing and to assist the Company with accounting and finance responsibilities, (2) increase the frequency of independent reconciliations of significant accounts which will mitigate the lack of segregation of duties until there are sufficient personnel and (3) may consider appointing an audit committee members in the future.

 

Management, including our president and our chief executive officer, have discussed the material weakness noted above with our independent registered public accounting firm. Due to the nature of this material weakness, there is a more than remote likelihood that misstatements which could be material to the annual or interim financial statements could occur that would not be prevented or detected.

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

 

Changes In Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the last fiscal quarter for our fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

We have adopted a Code of Ethics that applies to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, and persons performing similar functions. Our Code of Ethics is designed to deter wrongdoing and promote: (i) honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships; (ii) full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that we file with, or submit to, the SEC and in our other public communications; (iii) compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations; (iv) the prompt internal reporting of violations of our Code of Ethics to an appropriate person or persons identified in the code; and (v) accountability for adherence to our Code of Ethics.

Board and Committee Meetings

All proceedings of the board of directors were conducted by resolutions consented to in writing by all the directors and filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the directors. Such resolutions consented to in writing by the directors entitled to vote on that resolution at a meeting of the directors are, according to the Nevada General Corporate Law and our Bylaws, as valid and effective as if they had been passed at a meeting of the directors duly called and held.

 

Nomination Process

 

As of December 31, 2019, we did not effect any material changes to the procedures by which our shareholders may recommend nominees to our board of directors. Our board of directors does not have a policy with regards to the consideration of any director candidates recommended by our shareholders. Our board of directors has determined that it is in the best position to evaluate our company’s requirements as well as the qualifications of each candidate when the board considers a nominee for a position on our board of directors. If shareholders wish to recommend candidates directly to our board, they may do so by sending communications to the president of our company at the address on the cover of this annual report.

   

Audit Committee

 

Currently our audit committee consists of our entire board of directors. We do not have a standing audit committee as we currently have limited working capital and minimal revenues. Should we be able to raise sufficient funding to execute our business plan, we will form an audit, compensation committee and other applicable committees utilizing our directors’ expertise.

 

Audit Committee Financial Expert

The aggregate fees billed for the most recently completed fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 and for fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 for professional services rendered by the principal accountant for the audit of our annual financial statements and review of the financial statements included in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and services that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for these fiscal periods were as follows:
