Coro Global Inc.

Notes to the Condensed Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

For The Three Months Ended March 31, 2021

 

NOTE 1 — BUSINESS, GOING CONCERN AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Coro Global, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete condensed consolidated financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the SEC on March 31, 2021. In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature and which are necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2021, and the results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year.

 

Principle of Consolidation

 

The accompanying financial statements present on a consolidated basis the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Coro Corp., which was organized in the State of Nevada on September 14, 2018.

 

All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Nature of Business Operations

 

Coro Global Inc. is a Nevada corporation that was originally formed on November 1, 2005. On September 14, 2018 the Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary, Coro Corp. The Company is focused on dynamic global growth opportunities in the financial technology (Fintech) industry. Effective January 9, 2020, the Company changed its name to Coro Global Inc. The Company has developed a Fintech product that uses advanced distributed ledger technology for improved security, speed, and reliability. In August 2020 the Company released its CORO payment product and commenced its commercialization.

 

Covid-19 Pandemic

 

The Company’s operations have been materially and adversely impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic. The Company is located in Dade County, Florida which was subject to a “stay at home” order effective March 26, 2020, and which was lifted effective May 20, 2020. The effect of Covid-19 on the business has since been limited to experiencing delays in obtaining registrations and/or licenses from various state governmental agencies due to staff being temporarily suspended or working remotely.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company reported net losses of $916,094 and $849,888 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020, respectively. The losses raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

  

We will need to raise additional capital in order to continue operations. The Company’s ability to obtain additional financing may be affected by the success of its growth strategy and its future performance, each of which is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors beyond the Company’s control. Additional capital may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all. Financing transactions may include the issuance of equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities, or other financing mechanisms.

 

 

Further, if we issue additional equity or debt securities, stockholders may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our common stock. If additional financing is not available or is not available on acceptable terms, we will have to curtail or cease our operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might arise from this uncertainty.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For purposes of these financial statements, cash and cash equivalents includes highly liquid debt instruments with maturity of less than three months.

 

Restricted cash are funds that belong to the Company’s clients and is held at financial institutions.

 

Concentrations of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments and related items, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and temporary cash investments with high credit quality institutions. At times, such investments may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit. Currently our operating accounts are approximately $836,980 above the FDIC limit.

 

Advertising

 

The Company follows the policy of charging the costs of advertising to expense as incurred. The Company incurred $74,800 and $0, respectively for advertising costs for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020. 

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

The Company records net deferred tax assets to the extent the Company believes these assets will more likely than not be realized. In making such determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial operations. A valuation allowance is established against deferred tax assets that do not meet the criteria for recognition. In the event the Company were to determine that it would be able to realize deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, the Company would make an adjustment to the valuation allowance which would reduce the provision for income taxes.

 

The Company follows the accounting guidance which provides that a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits. Income tax positions must meet a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold at the effective date to be recognized initially and in subsequent periods. Also included is guidance on measurement, recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition.

 

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost. When retired or otherwise disposed, the related carrying value and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and the net difference less any amount realized from disposition, is reflected in earnings. Minor additions and renewals are expensed in the year incurred. Major additions and renewals are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives being 3 years up to 5 years.

 

Asset Category		Depreciation/ Amortization Period
Computer equipment		5 Years
Computer software		3 Years

 

Computer and equipment costs consisted of the following:

 

		March 31, 2021				December 31, 2020
Computer equipment and software		$	14,454			$	12,469
Accumulated depreciation			(4,896	)			(4,273	)
Balance		$	9,558			$	8,204

 

Depreciation expense was $623 and $498 respectively for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific revenue recognition guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Accounting Standards Codification. The updated guidance states that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also provides for additional disclosures with respect to revenues and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 the Company recorded a liability of $262,022 and $283,175 for amounts owed to customers for the purchase of gold.

  

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Cash, Receivables, Prepaid and Other Current Assets, Accounts Payable, Accrued Salaries and Wages and Other Current Liabilities.

 

The carrying amounts of these items approximated fair value.

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. To increase the comparability of fair value measures, Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC Topic 820-10-35 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements).

 

Level 1—Valuations based on quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets.

 

Level 2—Valuations based on observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

 

Level 3—Valuations based on unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions, consistent with reasonably available assumptions made by other market participants. These valuations require significant judgment.

 

 

Impairment of Long Lived Assets

 

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 360-10, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, long-lived assets to be held and used are analyzed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. ASC 360-10 relates to assets that can be amortized and the life can be determinable. The Company reviews property and equipment and other long-lived assets for impairment annually, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability is measured by comparison of the asset’s carrying amount to future undiscounted net cash flows the assets are expected to generate. Cash flow forecasts are based on trends of historical performance and management’s estimate of future performance, giving consideration to existing and anticipated competitive and economic conditions. 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 projected discounted future cash flows arising from the assets or their fair values, whichever is more determinable.

 

Leases

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases, which amended current lease accounting to require lessees to recognize (i) a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis, and (ii) a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. ASU 2016-02 does not significantly change lease accounting requirements applicable to lessors; however, certain changes were made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our balance sheet.

 

Net Loss per Share

 

Basic and diluted loss per share amounts are computed based on net loss divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Convertible shares, if converted, totaling 0 were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share because the assumed conversion and exercise would be anti-dilutive as there were no potentially dilutive instruments as of March 31, 2021 and 2020.

 

Management Estimates

 

The presentation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Stock Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for employee compensation related to stock, options or warrants using a fair value-based method whereby compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. The Company accounts for nonemployee compensation related to stock, options or warrants using a fair value-based method whereby compensation cost is measured at the earlier of a commitment date or completion of services based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period. The Company uses the Black-Scholes pricing model to calculate the fair value of options and warrants issued to both employees and non-employees. Stock issued for compensation is valued using the market price of the stock on the measurement date.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain 2020 balances have been reclassified in the 2019 financial statement presentation. The reclassification of accrued interest did not have any effect on the financial statements.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

All other newly issued accounting pronouncements not yet effective have been deemed either immaterial or not applicable.

 

 

2. DEFERRED STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION - RELATED PARTY

 

Effective May 18, 2018, the Company appointed J. Mark Goode as the President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. He was also appointed a member and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company.

 

The Company entered into an employment agreement on May 18, 2018 with Mr. Goode, which provided for an annual salary and certain other benefits. Pursuant to the employment agreement, Mr. Goode’s annual base salary was $96,000, which could be increased to up to $216,000 upon Mr. Goode meeting certain milestones set forth in the employment agreement related to the Company’s performance and was subject to increases as set from time to time by the Board. Upon the execution of the employment agreement, Mr. Goode received 500,000 shares of common stock of the Company valued at $1,250,000 ($2.50 per share). Pursuant to the initial terms of the employment agreement, after one year of employment by the Company as the Chief Executive Officer, the Company agreed to issue to Mr. Goode additional shares of common stock of the Company equal to 1% of the outstanding shares of the Company at the time of such issuance; after two years of employment by the Company as the Chief Executive Officer, the Company agreed to issue to Mr. Goode additional shares of common stock of the Company equal to 1% of the outstanding shares of the Company at the time of such issuance; and after three years of employment by the Company as the Chief Executive Officer, the Company agreed to issue to Mr. Goode additional shares of common stock of the Company equal to 1% of the outstanding shares of the Company at the time of such issuance. As of December 31, 2018 the Company accrued $300,995 in accordance with ASC 718-10-55-65 for the portion earned as the terms of such an award do not establish an ownership relationship because the extent to which (or whether) the employee benefits from the award depends on something other than changes in the entity’s share price. Therefore, the awards should be accounted for as a liability award. ASC 718 requires that public companies measure share-based awards classified as liabilities at fair value at each reporting date. In accordance with 718-30-35-3, a public entity shall measure a liability award under a share-based payment arrangement based on the award’s fair value re-measured at each reporting date until the date of settlement. Compensation cost for each period until settlement shall be based on the change (or a portion of the change, depending on the percentage of the requisite service that has been rendered at the reporting date) in the fair value of the instrument for each reporting period.

 

On May 31, 2019, the Company entered into amendment no. 1 to the Company’s employment agreement with Mr. Goode. Pursuant to the amendment, the Company’s obligation to issue additional shares of common stock as compensation to Mr. Goode was amended, such that, the Company issued to Mr. Goode and his designee 750,000 shares of common stock upon execution of the amendment, and the Company had no further obligation to issue to Mr. Goode shares under the employment agreement. Mr. Goode would have been required to return such 750,000 shares to the Company as follows:

 

●

Mr. Goode would have been required to return 500,000 of such shares to the Company if he was not serving as chief executive officer of the Company pursuant to the employment agreement as of May 17, 2020 (the second anniversary of the agreement); and

 

●

Mr. Goode would have been required to return 250,000 of such shares to the Company if he were not serving as chief executive officer of the Company pursuant to the employment agreement as of May 17, 2021 (the third anniversary of the agreement).

 

On May 31, 2019 the Company recorded the conversion of deferred compensation to common stock of $2,162,408 for the issuance of these shares to additional paid in capital and common stock. The Company recorded $300,995 for the additional value of the common stock for the vesting of the award during the year ended December 31, 2019. The Company recorded $622,107 for the additional value of the common stock for the vesting of the award during the year ended December 31, 2020. The Company recorded $35,733 for the additional value of the common stock for the vesting of the award during the three months ended March 31, 20201 As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 the unvested amount of the awards was $0 and $171,285, respectively.

 

On December 29, 2020, the Company entered into amendment No. 2 to the Company’s employment agreement with J. Mark Goode. Pursuant to the amendment, Mr. Goode’s employment with the Company continued until January 31, 2021, and Mr. Goode agreed to resign as President, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer of the Company effective December 31, 2020. From the period January 1, 2021 to January 31, 2021 Mr. Goode was entitled to his base salary and any other regular compensation under the employment agreement and agreed to assist the Company in the Company’s transition to a new Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Goode agreed that he would return 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock if he were not serving as Chief Executive Officer of the Company as of December 30, 2020, and agreed to return 62,500 shares of common stock to the Company upon expiration of the employment agreement on January 31, 2021. On December 31, 2020, Mr. Goode submitted his resignation as Director, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, effective at 11:59 p.m. on December 31, 2020.

 

 

3. NOTES PAYABLE – RELATED PARTY

 

On July 15, 2016, the Company issued a 7% promissory note to a significant shareholder in the principal amount of $100,000. The note had an initial one-year term. On April 9, 2019, the maturity date of the note was extended to June 30, 2019. On April 12, 2019, the Company entered into an exchange agreement with The Vantage Group Ltd. (“Vantage”), which held the note, pursuant to which Vantage exchanged a portion of this note, in the amount of $50,000, for 10,000 newly issued shares of common stock of the Company. The Company repaid the remaining balance of $50,000. Vantage is owned by Lyle Hauser, formerly the Company’s largest stockholder.

 

The changes in this note payable to related party are reflected in the following at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020:

 

		At March 31, 2021				At December 31, 2020
Note Payable		$	-			$	-
Accrued interest		$	14,820			$	14,820

 

The Company evaluated the modification under ASC 470-50 and concluded the deletion of the conversion qualifies for debt modification which triggered debt extinguishment; however, there was no impact to the income statement as there was no unamortized discounts or other fees paid on the under the prior debt terms.

 

4. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

 

In September 2017, the Company entered into and closed an asset purchase agreement with Vantage. Pursuant to the asset purchase agreement, the Company purchased from Vantage a software application referred to as Dino Might and related intellectual property. As consideration for the purchase, the Company issued to Vantage 7,000 shares of newly created Series C Preferred Stock, valued at $820,451, and granted to Vantage a revenue sharing interest in the Dino Might asset pursuant to which the Company agreed to pay to Vantage, for the Company’s 2017 fiscal year and the following nine years, 30% of the revenue generated by the Dino Might asset. In 2017 the Company recognized an impairment loss of $818,472, on the transaction based on the future discounted cash flows over the next three years. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Dino Might asset balance was $1,979.

 

Intellectual property is stated at cost. When retired or otherwise disposed, the related carrying value and accumulated amortization are removed from the respective accounts and the net difference less any amount realized from disposition, is reflected in earnings. Minor additions and renewals are expensed in the year incurred.

 

 

5. EQUITY

Pursuant to the amendment, the Company’s obligation to issue additional shares of common stock as compensation to Mr. Goode was amended, such that, the Company issued to Mr. Goode and his designee 750,000 shares of common stock upon execution of the amendment, and the Company had no further obligation to issue to Mr. Goode shares under the employment agreement. Mr. Goode would have been required to return such 750,000 shares to the Company as follows:

 

●

●

Mr. Goode would have required to return 250,000 of such shares to the Company if he were not serving as chief executive officer of the Company pursuant to the employment agreement as of May 17, 2021 (the third anniversary of the agreement).

6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

In December 2018, we entered into a software license agreement with Swirlds to license Hashgraph for the Coro platform, and on June 23, 2020, the agreement was amended and restated (as amended, the “Swirlds Agreement”). Pursuant to the Swirlds Agreement, the Company extended its license from Swirlds of Hashgraph technology for use in the Company’s Coro payment platform. The term and fees of such license will be as set forth in any applicable order form. In connection with the Swirlds Agreement, the Company and Swirlds executed an order form (the “Order Form”), which amends, restates and supersedes the order form between the Company and Swirlds dated December 13, 2018, whereby the Company will license 15 nodes from Swirlds, at a license fee of $15,000 per node, for a term of one (1) year, for a license fee of $225,000. Pursuant to the Order Form, the license of the nodes will automatically renew for additional one (1) year terms unless and until either party terminates the Swirlds Agreement or provides notice of non-renewal of the license then in effect. Should the license for any of the foregoing 15 nodes renew for any additional year, the license fee per node will drop to $3,000 per node per year. During the year ended December 31, 2020 the Company paid a total of $225,000 and recorded a prepaid expense of $112,500. During the three months ended March 31, 2021 the Company recorded an expense of $31,250.

 

Additionally, pursuant to the Order Form, the Company will pay Swirlds quarterly fees based on the aggregate value of all transaction fees the Company collects in that quarter from customers whose transactions were processed on the Coro payment platform using Swirld’s Hashgraph algorithm. The Company will also pay quarterly network transaction fees on all transactions (other than transactions for fiat), that are conducted by a Coro network user. If such quarterly network transaction fees equal less than $5,000, the Company will pay Swirlds $5,000 for that quarter.

 

On March 9, 2020, the Company entered into an engagement agreement with Aegis Capital Corp. (“Aegis”), pursuant to which we engaged Aegis to act as lead underwriter in connection with a proposed public offering of common stock by the Company. In the event the contemplated offering were completed, the agreement contemplated, that (subject to execution of an underwriting agreement for the offering) Aegis would be entitled to a 8% underwriting discount, a 1% non-accountable expense allowance, reimbursement of certain expenses, and warrants to purchase 8% of the number of shares of common stock sold in the offering. The agreement had a termination date of six months from the date thereof or upon completion of the proposed offering. The Company had recorded $119,025 of deferred offering costs consisting of $85,000 of legal fees, exchange listing fees of $9,025 and $25,000 of underwrite due diligence fees. The agreement expired on September 9, 2020 and offering costs of $119,025 were expensed.

 

On June 24, 2020, the board of directors of the Company adopted a compensation program for independent directors. Under the program, independent directors will be entitled to a quarterly cash fee of $7,500 and 7,500 shares of common stock on a quarterly basis (each due and payable quarterly in arrears).

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

 

Overview

 

We have developed and commenced commercializing a financial technology product, CORO which uses advanced distributed ledger technology for improved security, speed, and reliability. CORO is a global money transmitter that allows customers to send, receive, and exchange currencies faster, cheaper and more securely, initially consisting of the ability to send, receive and exchange U.S. dollars and gold. Our mission through CORO is to democratize access to gold as sound money. CORO makes it simple, convenient and affordable to use gold as money. The CORO mobile app was completed and released in select U.S. markets in August 2020. Following the initial commercial release, CORO has expanded into new markets and is now licensed, approved and operating in 28 U.S. states plus the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. CORO intends to expand the release of the app throughout the U.S. in 2021. The Company will also pursue money transmission licenses in foreign countries such as Mexico and Canada.

 

We believe CORO is the world’s first global payment application that includes gold, the oldest and most trusted money. CORO technology facilitates money transmission and exchange with faster speeds, better security, and lower costs than existing options in the marketplace. An important component of the CORO payment system is our Financial Crime Risk Management (FCRM) solution. We have developed our FCRM platform, with integrated Anti-Money Laundering / Know Your Customer on boarding and transaction monitoring to provide a fully integrated compliance solution for CORO’s compliance department. The solution meets the rigorous demands of government regulators, while supporting our customers. The FCRM technology has been completed and is incorporated within the CORO mobile payment system.

Results of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020

 

Revenues

 

In August 2020 the Company successfully launched the Coro mobile payment application on a commercial basis. The Coro app is available for users to download in the Apple Store and Google Play. The Company generated nominal transaction revenues of $1,094 during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

 

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2021 were $729,645, an increase of $94,797 or approximately 10% compared to selling, general and administrative expenses of $634,848 for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The increase in expense was mainly attributable to higher legal, professional and consulting fees during the three months ended March 31, 2021. In addition, during the three months ended March 31, 2021 the Company incurred advertising costs of $74,800 compared to $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, as the Company prepared to launch its CORO product. This was partially offset by a decrease in stock compensation of $158,857 to $133,383 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 from stock compensation expense of $292,240 for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

 

Development Expense

 

Development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2021 were $187,453 compared to $215,040 for the three months ended March 31, 2020. We incurred slightly lower development expenses, including fees paid to vendors, for our CORO product during the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020 as we completed development of our CORO product.

  

Net Loss

 

For the reasons stated above, our net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was ($916,094) or ($0.04) per share, an increase of $66,206 or 8%, compared to net loss of ($849,888), or ($0.04) per share, for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

 

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of March 31, 2021, we had cash of $1,646,886, compared to cash of $735,547 as of December 31, 2020. Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $586,683. Our current liabilities as of March 31, 2021 of $824,163 consisted of: $562,141 for accounts payable and due to customers of $262,022.

 

Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $1,978 compared to $0 for three months ended March 31, 2020. During the three months ended March 31, 2021 the Company purchased office equipment.

  

During the three months ended March 31, 2021 we entered into and closed subscription agreements with accredited investors pursuant to which we sold to the investors an aggregate of 300,000 shares of common stock, for a purchase price of $5.00 per share, and aggregate gross proceeds of $1,500,000. During the three months ended March 31, 2020 we entered into and closed subscription agreements with accredited investors pursuant to which the Company sold to the investors an aggregate of 200,000 shares of common stock, for a purchase price of $5.00 per share, and aggregate gross proceeds of $1,000,000. We repaid $100,000 of outstanding principal of a note payable from a then-related party.

  

During the next twelve months, we anticipate that we will incur approximately $5,200,000 of general and administrative expenses in order to execute our current business plan. We also plan to incur significant sales, marketing, research and technical development expenses during the next 12 months. We must obtain additional financing to continue our operations. We may not be able to obtain additional funding on terms that are favorable to us or at all. We may not be able to obtain sufficient funding to continue our operations, or if we do receive funding, to generate adequate revenues in the future or to operate profitably in the future. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Effective January 1, 2018, we recognize revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific revenue recognition guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Accounting Standards Codification. The updated guidance states that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also provides for additional disclosures with respect to revenues and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The standard was effective for the first interim period within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and we adopted the standard using the modified retrospective approach effective January 1, 2018. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

We account for all compensation related to stock; options or warrants using a fair value-based method whereby compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. We use the Black-Scholes pricing model to calculate the fair value of options and warrants issued to both employees and non-employees. Stock issued for compensation is valued using the market price of the stock on the date of the related agreement.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

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

 

Management does not believe that any other recently issued but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

 

 

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

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

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

Not required for a smaller reporting company.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) are recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer (principal executive and financial officer) of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based upon this evaluation, our chief executive officer (principal executive and financial officer) concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and also are not effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s chief executive officer (principal executive and financial officer), to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Management concluded that the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective because the following material weaknesses exist:

 

●

Our chief executive officer also functions as our principal financial officer. As a result, our officers may not be able to identify errors and irregularities in the financial statements and reports.

 

●

We were unable to maintain full segregation of duties within our financial operations due to our reliance on limited personnel in the finance function.

 

●

Documentation of all proper accounting procedures is not yet complete.

 

To the extent reasonably possible given our limited resources, we intend to take measures to cure the aforementioned weaknesses, including, but not limited to, increasing the capacity of our qualified financial personnel to ensure that accounting policies and procedures are consistent across the organization and that we have adequate control over financial statement disclosures.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2021, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
