PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

12 ReTech Corporation is a holding company with subsidiaries that develop, sell, and install software that we believe enhance the shopping experience for shoppers and retailers. As a holding company we also acquire synergistic operating companies that manufacture and sell fashion and other products to other retailers as well as selling these products online. In October 2019, we acquired retail stores in airport terminals and casinos solidifying us as a true Omni-Channel retailer. Owning our own brick and mortar stores will allow us to deploy our cutting-edge software and Apps in the United States, to demonstrate its effectiveness at attracting shoppers and inducing them to purchase. In our own stores, we plan to test, in real time, new software products which should delight consumers and generate incremental revenues and profits for our stores. If we can show incremental revenues and profits for ourselves, we believe that other retailers may follow our example and deploy our software solutions themselves.

With the intended future launch of our social shopping app which is in development in 2021 (see subsequent events) we intend to associate with other retailers on a new shopping platform that will benefit both consumers and retailers in new and exciting ways.

During the 4th quarter 2019 and continuing in the first quarter 2020 amid the effects of the pandemic created by COVID-19, the Company chose to consolidate its operations around three operating entities; 12 Tech, Inc., formed in Arizona on December 26, 2019 (“12 Tech”) and 12 Retail Corporation, formed on September 17th, 2017 (“12 Retail”), and the 12 Fashion Group, Inc formed on June 26, 2020.

12 Retail operates its own retail outlet(s) as well as those of Bluwire Group, LLC (“Bluwire”) that operates retail stores in airports (mainly in international terminals) and casinos. Because of their locations mainly in international terminals of airports, all Bluwire Company owned stores and all but one royalty store remains closed due to Covid-19. 12 Retail will also serve to demonstrate the effectiveness of the software technology created by 12 Tech in improving revenues and profits for retailers as well as providing access to other retailers through our soon to be launched social shopping app and through our wholesale fashion business relationships.

12 Fashion Group, Inc., an Arizona Corporation, was formed on June 26, 2020, and operates our fashion wholesale and direct to consumer brands, including Rune NYC, Social Sunday, and Red Wire Design, as well as consolidating remaining operations from our other smaller fashion acquisitions.

Today, 12 Tech aims to provide technology solutions both online and inside retail brick and mortar that helps retailers acquire customers, reduce overhead expenses, streamline operations, and gain incremental revenues and profits. Existing 12 Tech solutions are deployed mainly in Asia. We are planning to deploy our solutions in the United States retail markets, which serve the world’s largest consumer economy. While we continue to operate in Asia, we have consolidated our international units, which were focused on our technology deployment (“12 Japan” and “12 Europe”), and consolidated our software development company 12 Hong Kong, Ltd (“12 HK”), under 12 Tech to further streamline our own operations.

As the retail environment continues to evolve, we as both retailers and technologists, will evolve with it. We believe our developed software, both current and in development, will delight consumers, provide contactless experiential shopping, and assist retailers with the recapture of their revenues as they combat the dual threats of Amazon and Walmart. Our software, once fully deployed and implemented, may provide retailers with another effective online and mobile sales channel besides their current options of Google, Amazon, and/or Facebook/Instagram.

As an innovative retail technology company that has been built through acquisitions and ideas, we will continue to search for additional synergistic acquisitions that bring incremental revenues and profitability and/or provide innovative software solutions.

The Opportunity:

Brick and mortar retailers continue to struggle against online competition and the largest big box retailers. This struggle was not made any easier with the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. We believe the enforced lock-down and social distancing restrictions will change consumer behaviors, maybe permanently, in ways that no one could have predicted in 2019.

Throughout history, great change also provides great opportunity. 12 ReTech believes that our software solutions for business will provide effective tools that businesses can and will use to entice consumers back to their businesses to purchase products and services in new ways. As restrictions become more and more a part of the new normal, consumers will be anxious to get out of their homes to enjoy life again. We believe that each business must provide information and resources to allow consumers to feel safe shopping in stores, dining in restaurants and traveling.

Management believes that consumers will want assurances that the business has taken steps to ensure their safety and protect them from COVID-19, the flu, and the next virus that may come along, but they will want to be engaged and find their shopping, dining, and travel to also be experiential, entertaining, fun, and safe.

Businesses will need to be able to contact and engage with consumers from a distance, whether at their homes, offices (to a lesser extent), online, and through mobile apps, as well as in their physical stores. We believe that our technology solutions allow consumers to get product or service information, share their choices with their social network, and purchase or reserve products and services in physical locations and online, so consumers can choose to be contactless.

World-wide retailing represents approximately $28 trillion in revenues, while in 2018 in the U.S. alone, all forms of retailing represented $5.35 trillion in annual revenues (according to Statista March 2019). While management believes that the Company’s software and technologies can benefit almost all retailers, the Company will initially focus on the Electronics, Apparel, and Cosmetics sectors where they believe we can have the biggest impact and which market generated over $346 billion in 2018 revenues in just the U.S. (Statista March 2019).

Management believes that the fallout from COVID-19 will provide a tremendous opportunity for those developers, like our Company, that quickly adapt their software and create new applications to provide solutions that consumers and business need. While businesses were reluctant to change before this pandemic, they are all now forced to look for new solutions, which we intend to provide. Many of our applications, with some additional development, as well as new software solutions, will quickly solve these problems. For example:

We were contactless before it was cool!™ In 2018, we launched our 12 Sconti App in Europe which, among other things, allowed the consumers to receive offers from participating nearby retailers that the consumer could purchase right from their smart phone, walk into the retailer and pick up their goods, just by showing their QR code. What we learned from this app is being applied to our new social shopping app, which is now in development.

Our Acquisition Strategy:

The Company targets for acquisition those synergistic companies that provide immediate revenue, and the potential for growth in revenue and earnings and/or may provide entries to license or sell our software and technology to other businesses and consumer brands, and/or will provide support services to our existing operations. Therefore, we target acquisitions that can benefit from our technology platform and expertise to grow their operations, brands that can give us entry into other businesses, and support companies for our brands and technologies.

We now target for acquisition those companies with at least $3 million in annual sales, that have existing management teams which complement our own. We will also acquire smaller companies that, when added to our own, allows us to leverage our existing operations without significantly increasing our costs. Other candidates would be companies with existing software for our technology subsidiary or companies where we can demonstrate the effectiveness of our technology. We are, of course, always looking to acquire larger companies or brands. We in fact have been and are still in talks with larger entities, but these are our minimum requirements.

Our Technology Rollout Strategy:

Our subsidiary 12 Tech has, through 12 Japan and 12 Hong Kong, already deployed and tested our existing USXS software applications at ITOYA LTD in Japan. Using the knowledge that we gained from that real-world experience and adapting it to the post COVID-19 reality, we have begun to demonstrate some of our solutions in the United States of America.

During 2021, as the U.S. beings to re-open, we plan to deploy our technology in our retail stores. By demonstrating the lift that our technology achieves, we will then use our relationships that have been developed from our fashion brands to approach other businesses with this information to license the software to them. However, until we launch our new social shopping app with features to allow users to interact with our screens, our existing technology will not be very effective as we believe that post Covid most consumers will be reluctant to touch a public touch screen.

In the fourth quarter of 2021, we plan to announce and launch our new consumer-based social shopping mobile App that any consumer-based business can subscribe to in order to reach and interact with consumers easily in fun and innovative ways, and especially contactless.

The total number of shares of Series D-1 Preferred Stock issued was 311,250 shares, with a par value of $0.00001 per share and a stated value of $2.00 per share (the “Stated Value”). The Series D Preferred Stock as a whole, of which Series D-1 is a subset, has such powers, preferences, rights and restrictions which shall be determined by the Company’s Board of Directors in its sole discretion, and which designations and issuances shall not require the approval of the shareholders of the Company

The Board believes that this was necessary so that the Company maintains a consistent vision going forward that can only be achieved if the Founder’s vision is maintained. This vision is the same vision that all current shareholders bought into as evidenced by their investment into the Company. To ensure that the founder’s vision is maintained, it is necessary that no outsider person or group can gain voting control from the founder as the Company.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk and should not be made by anyone who cannot afford to lose their entire investment. You should consider carefully the risks set forth in this section, together with the other information contained in this report, before making a decision to invest in our common stock. Our business, operating results, and financial condition could be seriously harmed, and you could lose your entire investment if any of the following risks were to occur. This document is not intended to be an offer of any securities nor a solicitation of any offer to buy or sell.

Risks Related to Our Business

Until the acquisition of our brands, we are a Company with limited operating history, little revenue and still have to rely on our ability to raise capital to fund operations and there can be no assurance we will ever reach profitability or be able to continue to raise capital to fund operations.

The Company commenced limited operations in June of 2017, with the acquisition of 12 Hong Kong, Ltd. The Company then acquired 12 Japan, Ltd in August 2017, followed by 12 Europe A.G. in October 2017. 12 Japan, Ltd brought a small portion of revenue, insufficient to fund operations, while 12 Europe A.G. brought no revenue and was subsequently closed on August 20, 2019. Throughout 2019, we made four acquisitions including Red Wire Group, Rune, Bluwire, and Social Sunday, which together brought significant revenue but not enough profit to offset the costs of being public and developing and launching our core technology initiative. Therefore, we have limited operating history on which to make an investment decision. Accordingly, the Company has a limited operating history and the business strategy while promising may not be successful. Failure to implement the business strategy could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Through December 31, 2019, the Company’s business has not shown a profit in operations and has generated little revenues. There can be no assurance we will achieve or attain profitability or be able to raise sufficient capital to stay in business. If we cannot achieve operating profitability or raise capital, we may not be able to meet our working capital requirements, which could have a material adverse effect on our business operating results and financial condition resulting in the loss of an investors’ entire investment in us.

We need substantial additional capital to grow and fund our present and planned business and business strategy. Until we have made significant brand acquisitions, the Company’s working capital may not be sufficient for our needs.

Our current and planned operations contemplate funding in the future. Failure to meet funding milestones may have a significant adverse effect on our growth and anticipated revenues and we may have to curtail our business strategy. If we receive less funding than planned, we will have to revise our business model and reduce proposed plans. Without significant funding, we will not be able to execute on our business operations and may be forced to cease operations. At this time, there can be no assurance we will be able to obtain the funding we need and even if we obtain such funding that it will be on terms and conditions favorable to us and our existing shareholders. Without funding we will not be able to proceed with planned operations or meet existing obligations.

Our independent registered public accounting firm’s report states that there is substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern. Our possible inability to stay in business could result in a total loss on investment by our shareholders.

Our accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a “going concern.” As discussed in Note 2 to the Company’s December 31, 2020 consolidated financial statements, we had little revenues, have minimal business operations, have recurring losses and have negative working capital and a stockholders’ deficit. These issues raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a “going concern.” Our ability to stay in business will, in part, depend on our ability to raise additional funding or continue to make brand acquisitions. Our financial statements do not include any adjustment that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

We may experience service failures or interruptions due to defects in the software, infrastructure or processes that comprise our Apps and other software, any of which could adversely affect our business.

Our software may contain undetected defects in the software, infrastructure, or processes. If these defects lead to failures in our Apps, we could experience delays or lost revenues during the period required to correct the cause of the defects. Furthermore, we cannot be certain that defects will not be found in new software or upgraded existing software or that service disruptions will not occur in the future, resulting in loss of, or delay in, market acceptance, which could have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

If we do not successfully maintain the 12 ReTech brand in our existing markets or successfully market the 12 ReTech brand in new markets, our revenues and earnings could be materially and adversely affected.

We believe that developing, maintaining, and enhancing the 12 ReTech brand in a cost-effective manner is critical in expanding our customer base. Promotion of our brand will depend largely on continuing our sales and marketing efforts and providing high-quality products and App software to our customers. We cannot be assured that these efforts will be successful in marketing the 12 ReTech brand. If we are unable to successfully promote our brand, or if we incur substantial expenses in attempting to do so, our revenues and earnings could be materially and adversely affected.

Our internal systems and operations are untested and may not be adequate and could adversely affect our ability to continue our planned business.

Our internal systems and operations are new and unproven at scale. On the technology portion of our business, we have not demonstrated the ability to make the large-scale deployments necessary if a large retailer would indicate they wanted to fully implement our solutions. We may need to find an installation partner with the necessary experience to perform these large-scale installations. Our inability to scale or find that experienced partner or vendor could have a material adverse effect upon our business, results of operations and financial condition and could force us to halt our planned operations or continued expansion of those planned operations, causing us to lose any opportunity to gain significant anticipated market share in our industry. Our ability to compete effectively and to manage future growth will require us to continue to improve our operational systems, our organization, and our financial and management controls, reporting systems, and deployment procedures. We may fail to make these improvements effectively. Additionally, our efforts to make these improvements may divert the focus of our personnel and we may not be able to effectively continue our planned operations, which may materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our inability to attract and maintain key personnel required to implement our business strategy could adversely affect our ability to continue our current and planned business resulting in slower growth.

While we have so far been able to attract high caliber people, we are competing with many other entities for these services some of whom are better funded then we are. We are trying to grow our effort to provide services and we are still hiring key positions and integrating personnel at all levels into a cohesive team. If executives or other new hires integrate poorly, perform badly, or do not have the anticipated experience or skill sets required, our current and planned business endeavors could be harmed. Planned personnel, management practices and controls may also prove to be inadequate to provide services, acquire customers and partners and operate the business, and any gaps or failures may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Increased competition may have an adverse effect on our ability to continue our current and planned business operations and result in our going out of business and may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

We may see increased competition in our markets. On the technology side of our business, many players are entering the marketplace including Hitachi, IBM, and others. While we believe that our solutions are better due to our experience as retailers, our competitors are entrenched and very well-funded. The competitors may be able to respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements and devote greater resources to develop, promote and sell their products or services. In addition, increased competition could result in reduced fees, reduced margins and loss of market share, any of which could harm our business. We cannot guarantee that we can compete successfully against current or future competitors, many of which have substantially more capital, existing brand recognition, resources, and access to additional financing. All these competitive pressures may result in increased marketing costs, or loss of market share or otherwise may materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

We may be unable to patent future improvements and/or update our technology.

We use technology advancements of our own and from suppliers to provide more advanced services with more efficient economics for our customers. Technology advancement is very fast paced in today’s digital world and can lead to changing standards and new modes of providing services. The advancement of other technology not available to us or within our financial ability to adopt that may make our products or future products unsaleable. Keeping pace with the introduction of new standards, customer requirements, or the advancement of other technology may make our products uncompetitive or obsolete. The failure to keep pace with these changes and to continue to enhance and improve our products and features could harm our ability to attract and retain customers for our technology.

The effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting

The Company has a limited number of personnel which may lead to the risk of limited controls and procedures. For the aforementioned reason, there is a limit on the quantity of internal controls during our financial reporting process.

The Company’s CFO is currently the CEO of another Company

The Company CFO is also the CEO of another business and therefore may have limited time to work on the business and may experience time conflicts.

Our Board of Directors lacks independent directors as members.

Our CEO and CFO are also on our Board of Directors and as a result the Board of Directors may lack some independence.

The stock ownership of our chief executive officer and the ability to control the Company

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer is also one of the most significant shareholders of the Company and as a result exercises significant control over the Company.

There are a large number of shares of common stock underlying the outstanding preferred stock and convertible notes

The Company has outstanding preferred stock and convertible notes which are potentially convertible into common stock. Should all these convertible instruments convert into common stock, the number of common shares issued would lead to substantial dilution of the current common shareholders.

Although we have attempted to discuss meaningful factors, our investors need to be aware that other factors and risks may become important in the future. New risks may emerge at any time. We cannot predict such risks or estimate the extent to which they may affect our operations and financial performance. Investors should carefully consider the discussion of risks and the other information included in this Report, including the Cautionary Information Regarding Forward-Looking Information provided above in Part I, Item 2, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The effects of this worldwide pandemic on our business have not been fully determined at this time. Since March 16, 2020, the world was affected by a pandemic virus called COVID-19, and all our businesses were affected by closures and/or reductions in volume. Businesses around the world were closed, as well as airports and casinos, and consumers were told to shelter at home. The long-term effect of this on the psyche of consumers and the worldwide economy are unknown. Their short- and long-term effects on our business is undetermined at the time of this report.

Risks to our businesses related to COVID-19

The ongoing systemic challenges of the retail and restaurant industries due to changes in consumer habits, online and with mobile Apps, have been further exacerbated and accelerated due to 2020’s COVID-19 pandemic. The business closures mandated by government agencies around the world, coupled by governmental stay at home orders and consumer fears of infection, may forever significantly change consumer behavior in unforeseen ways. While these challenges provide significant opportunity to market and sell our new technologies as well as our fashion products, at this stage it may be difficult to predict the trend of overall consumer behavior.

Due to COVID-19, the solvency of our potential customers for our technology and products may be in doubt and their ability to make payments to us may be at risk. For example, see recent post COVID-19 bankruptcies such as J. C. Penney Company, Inc, J.Crew, Pier 1 Imports, Modell’s Sporting Goods, Food First Global Restaurants, Neiman Marcus, and Garden Fresh Restaurants, to name a few.

Also due to COVID-19, there has been an extreme reduction in travel, thereby significantly affecting the number of customers in our Company owned stores, thereby further potentially reducing revenue for those stores. This reduction in traffic through retail stores and restaurants in airports and casinos may also further reduce our ability to gain additional subscribers for our technologies.

Another impact of COVID-19 on our operations, that our vendors are operating at reduced capacity or have closed, which could impact our flow of inventory or raw materials for an indeterminate amount of time until such time as those vendors can be replaced or resume operations at full capacity.

We may face challenges rehiring some or all of the workforce that was laid off due to COVID-19 and may have to recruit and hire replacement employees in the future for our businesses. As a result, management expects to face additional costs to get back our operations at full capacity.

For more information about our response to COVID-19, see our specific COVID-19 disclosures.

Our operating results may be substantially different than that which management projects. The creditworthiness of our customers, changes in the availability of capital due to a downturn in the economy undue regulation and legal uncertainties, all of which would increase our cash requirements which may materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Therefore, financial results could materially differ from that projected by management. Projections are less and less reliable the further out those projections are made based on all of the above reasons.

An increase in laws and regulations could contribute to a decline in the growth of the industry and could decrease demand for our products and services and increase our cost of doing business. Moreover, the applicability of existing laws is uncertain with regards to many issues. Our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be seriously impaired by any new legislation or regulation. The application of laws and regulations from jurisdictions whose laws do not currently apply to our business, or the application of existing laws and regulations and to other services which may materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Planned acquisitions come with various risks, along with dilution to our shareholders, which could negatively affect our stock prices and may materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Acquisitions, mergers, and joint ventures entered into by us may have an adverse effect on our business. We expect to engage in acquisitions, mergers, or joint ventures as part of our long-term business strategy. These transactions involve significant challenges and risks including that the transaction does not advance our business strategy, that we do not realize a satisfactory return on our investment, or that we experience difficulty in the integration of new assets, employees, business systems, and technology, or diversion of management’s attention from our other businesses. These events may materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Risks related to the competition of our current and future brands acquired or to be acquired by our subsidiaries, 12 Retail Corporation and 12 Fashion Group, Inc.

Our current and planned brand acquisitions are in the highly competitive fashion industry. Many of those acquisitions will compete directly with better funded and better-known brands. While Management believes that it can compete directly with these larger brands, gambling on the public’s changing attitudes towards “looking the same as everyone else” and wanting individuality and on the Company’s proprietary technology to provide positive results there are no guarantees that the Company will be able to compete effectively.

The current and future state of the economy may materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our business may be adversely affected by changes in domestic economic conditions, including inflation or deflation, changes in consumer preferences, changes in consumer spending rates, personal bankruptcy and the ability to collect our customer accounts. Changes in economic conditions may adversely affect the demand for our products and make it more difficult to collect customer accounts, thereby negatively affecting our business, operating results and financial condition. The recent disruptions in credit and other financial markets and deterioration of national and global economic conditions could, among other things, impair the financial condition of some of our customers and suppliers, thereby increasing customer bad debts or non-performance by suppliers. If we experience bad debts or slow paying customers in significant quantities, our cash flow will be limited and our ability to pay our own obligations will be questionable. As a small business these issues will affect us more than our larger competitors putting financial strain on our business and threatening our survival particularly since we have limited capital to rely on to overcome cash flow issues of slow paying customers. If our customers are unable to pay or pay slowly it may materially and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Risks Related to the Retail Industry

The retail industry has been reeling ever since 2008 related to less shoppers, and more purchases being done online. This has led to such venerable names as Sears Roebuck and Co, and J.C. Penney, and many others filing bankruptcy, and some disappearing forever, such as BCBG-MAXAZRIA, which no longer has any brick-and-mortar retail locations. With COVID-19, we believe this trend will accelerate. Our Management believes that only those retailers that are able to find new ways to attract consumers to the stores and learn how to sell through new channels, such as mobile apps and online, will survive.

Our business is dependent on the ability of our fashion brands to sell to brick-and-mortar retailers, as well as to sell products to online retailers and to successfully market our products on mobile apps and online. The seismic transition occurring in the retail industry may impair our ability to be successful in these efforts.

Our technology division intends to sell and license our technology solutions to brick and mortar retailers and restaurants whose financial health and ability to raise capital will determine if they will even be able to afford our solutions. We face collection risks and client retention risks in selling to retailers and restaurants who may not remain in business.

Extending credit in this environment where our technology or fashion group will be difficult, and we may suffer losses because of it. These risks may impede our ability to prosper.

Risks related to old debts and current and potential litigation.

Due to the number of operations acquired and the impact of the Covid-19 Pandemic, the Company has fallen behind on many of the obligations of certain subsidiaries. Some of these have resulted in litigation (see litigation section).

Risks of Acquiring Operations.

We face risks of successfully integrating acquired businesses into our operations.

An acquired business may require additional capital infusions to survive. Capital raising is difficult in any environment especially in a post COVID-19 world. Failing to successfully raise a sufficient amount of capital is a risk to the continuation of the acquired businesses operations.

We will need to integrate the acquired businesses back office accounting into our own systems in order to successfully continue to execute our SEC mandated reporting duties. Failing to do so is a risk to our ongoing SEC fully reporting status.

We will need to integrate the acquired businesses personnel into our own teams whether they be operational or back office. Failing to do so is a risk to the ongoing operations of an acquired operation. Sellers or existing management that may be retained after the acquisitions may not perform well in the new environment. This may impede our ability to rapidly grow or even maintain management of the acquisitions. In consolidating our acquisitions, we may find difficulties merging different teams that have different cultures, and therefore we may not fully realize the benefits anticipates.

We may experience unforeseen challenges in realizing the cost-saving synergies and business expansion benefits of any or all acquisitions.

Future stock issuances could severely dilute our current shareholders’ interests.

Our Board of Directors has the authority to issue up to 20,000,000,000 authorized shares of our common stock or stock warrants and options to acquire such common stock. Our Board of Directors has the authority to issue up to 50,000,000 shares of preferred shares that have various rights of conversion to common stock. Refer to Description of Registrant’s Securities below for full details of Series A, Series B, Series C, and Series D Preferred Shares. The future issuance of common stock may result in dilution in the percentage of our common stock held by our existing stockholders. Also, any stock we sell in the future may be valued on an arbitrary basis by us and the issuance of shares of common stock for future services, acquisitions or other corporate actions may have the effect of diluting the value of the shares held by our existing stockholders.

We do not expect to pay dividends on our common shares in the foreseeable future.

We do not expect to declare or pay any dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. The declaration and payment in the future of any cash or stock dividends on the common stock will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend upon a variety of factors, including our ability to service our outstanding indebtedness, if any, and to pay dividends on securities ranking senior to the common stock, our future earnings, if any, capital requirements, financial condition and such other factors as our Board of Directors may consider to be relevant from time to time. Our earnings, if any, are expected to be retained for use in expanding our business.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

Our common stock is classified as a “penny stock” under SEC Rules and Regulations, which means there is a very limited trading market for our shares.

Our common stock is deemed to be “penny stock” as that term is defined in Rule 3a511 of the SEC. Penny stocks are stocks (i) with a price of less than five dollars per share; (ii) that are not traded on a “recognized” national exchange; (iii) whose prices are not quoted on the NASDAQ automated quotation system (NASDAQ listed stocks must still meet requirement (i) above); or (iv) in issuers with net tangible assets less than $2,000,000 (if the issuer has been in continuous operation for at least three years); or $5,000,000 (if in continuous operation for less than three years); or with average revenues of less than $6,000,000 for the last three years.

Section 15(g) of the Exchange Act and Rule 15g2 of the SEC require broker dealers dealing in penny stocks to provide potential investors with a document disclosing the risks of penny stocks and to obtain a manually signed and dated written receipt of the document before effecting any transaction in a penny stock for the investor’s account. Potential investors in our common stock are urged to obtain and read such disclosure carefully before purchasing any shares that are deemed to be “penny stock.”

Moreover, Rule 15g9 of the SEC requires broker dealers in penny stocks to approve the account of any investor for transactions in such stocks before selling any penny stock to that investor. This procedure requires the broker dealer to (i) obtain from the investor information concerning his, her or its financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives; (ii) reasonably determine, based on that information, that transactions in penny stocks are suitable for the investor, and that the investor has sufficient knowledge and experience as to be reasonably capable of evaluating the risks of penny stock transactions; (iii) provide the investor with a written statement setting forth the basis on which the broker dealer made the determination in (ii) above; and (iv) receive a signed and dated copy of such statement from the investor, confirming that it accurately reflects the investor’s financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives. Compliance with these requirements may make it more difficult for investors in our common stock to resell their shares to third parties or to otherwise dispose of such shares.

Due to the substantial instability in our common stock price, you may not be able to sell your shares at a profit or at all, and as a result, any investment in our shares could be totally lost.

The public market for our common stock is very limited. As with the market for many other small companies, any market price for our shares is likely to continue to be very volatile. Our common stock has very limited volume and as a “penny stock,” many brokers will not trade in our stock limiting our stock’s liquidity. As such it may be difficult to sell shares of our common stock.

Our common stock has a limited trading history, and it will be difficult to determine any market trends or prices for our shares and additional shares that become available under Rule 144 could cause the price of our stock to decrease.

Our common stock currently is quoted on the OTC Pink Sheets under the symbol “RETC”. However, with very little trading history, a trading market that does not represent an “established trading market”, volatility in the bid and asked prices and the fact that our common stock is very thinly traded, you could lose all or a substantial portion of your funds if you make an investment in us. Additionally, as more shares become available for resale, it is likely there will be negative pressures on our stock price. The sale or potential sale of shares of our common stock that may become publicly tradable under Rule 144 in the future may have a severe adverse impact on any market that develops for our common stock, and you may lose your entire investment or be unable to resell any shares in us that you purchase.

There are a large number of shares of common stock underlying our outstanding preferred stock and convertible notes.

The Company has outstanding Preferred Stock and Convertible Notes with possibility of conversion into a number of common shares. Although we have attempted to discuss meaningful factors, our investors need to be aware that other factors and risks may become important in the future. New risks may emerge at any time. We cannot predict such risks or estimate the extent to which they may affect our operations and financial performance. Investors should carefully consider the discussion of risks and the other information included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including the Cautionary Information Regarding Forward-Looking Information provided above in Part I, Item 2, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULT OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this quarterly report. References in the following discussion and throughout this annual report to “we”, “our”, “us”, “12 ReTech Corporation”, “12 ReTech”, “RETC”, “the Company”, and similar terms refer to, 12 ReTech Corporation. unless otherwise expressly stated or the context otherwise requires.

Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those identified below, and those discussed in the section titled “Risk Factors” included elsewhere in this filing.

Company

12 ReTech Corporation is a holding company with subsidiaries that develop, sell, and install software that we believe enhance the shopping experience for shoppers and retailers. As a holding company, we also acquire synergistic operating companies that manufacture and sell Fashion products to other retailers as well as selling products online. In October 2019 we also acquired retail stores in airport terminals and casinos to create a true Omni-Channel retailer. The plan was this would allow us to deploy our cutting-edge software in the United States to demonstrate its effectiveness, as well as to test, real time new software products to continue to delight consumers and generate additional revenue and profits for retailers.

During the 4th quarter 2019 and continuing in the first quarter 2020 and with the effects of the pandemic created by COVID-19, the Company consolidated operations around two operating entities; 12 Tech, Inc., formed in Arizona on December 26, 2019 (“12 Tech”) and 12 Retail Corporation, formed on June 27th, 2017 (“12 Retail”).

12 Retail is itself divided into three operating units; 12 Retail, Bluwire Group, LLC (“Bluwire”) that will operate our airport retail stores in airports, 12 Retail itself which will operate our casino store(s), and 12 Fashion Group, Inc. that operates our fashion wholesale and direct to consumer brands, including Rune NYC, Social Sunday, Red Wire Design, Emotion Fashion Group. 12 Retail will serve to demonstrate the effectiveness of the software technology created by 12 Tech in improving revenues and profits for emailers as well as providing access to other retailers through our whole fashion business relationships.

12 Tech, Inc, provides technology solutions to physical retailers currently mainly in Asia and is now positioned in the United States market, the world’s largest. We have consolidated or shuttered our international units focused on our technology deployment (“12 Japan” and “12 Europe”), and consolidated our software company 12 Hong Kong, Ltd (“12 HK”) under 12 Tech to further streamline operations.

As the retail environment continues to evolve, we as retailers and as primarily a technology company will evolve with it. We believe our developed software and those products in development will delight consumers, provide contactless experiential shopping, and bring revenue back to retailers as they combat the dual threat of Amazon and Walmart. Our software, once fully deployed and implemented, may provide retailers with another electronic and effective sales channel other than Google, Amazon, and/or Facebook/Instagram.

As an innovative holding company that has been built through acquisitions and ideas, we will continue to search for other synergistic acquisitions that bring additional revenues, and/or provide innovative software solutions.

Throughout 2019, the Company made a number of acquisitions for its 12 Retail subsidiary. The criteria management used in selecting and completing these acquisitions was; 1) Each acquisition had significant revenue, 2) management identified that the acquisition could at some point assist in the deployment of our retail software technology, 3) the business could benefit from expense consolidation and better management controls, and 4) be able to be acquired and managed within the resources available to the Company.

In each case, after acquisition, we looked for ways to streamline operations, and shed expensive facilities, reduce labor and material costs, while maintaining and/or growing the revenue and increasing the margins. This process can appear to be messy to an outsider but is a process that management believes will ultimately yield the biggest rewards for our shareholders over time. In most cases each acquisition was followed by a larger acquisition as the Company built momentum. Consequently, the Company had its largest revenue quarter in the 4th quarter of 2019 when it topped $1 million in quarterly revenues for the first time ($1,003,549 vs $ 19,105 in 2018).

In the first quarter of 2020, the processes discussed here continued and accelerated until our business was interrupted by nationwide closures due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Management used this period once most operations were closed to more swiftly shutter unprofitable retail stores, close the unprofitable Utah factory, and further streamline operations which management believes may make the Company a much stronger player post COVID-19 pandemic. (See Risk Factors).

During the 4th quarter of 2019 the company completed the last two acquisitions for the year (Bluwire Group, LLC & Social Decay d/b/a Social Sunday) and began to consolidate them into 12 Retail. 12 Retail was itself divided into two operating segments; Retail and Fashion. Angelo Ponzetta, our CEO who had 25 years of retail experience, was named as the acting CEO of Bluwire, and Emily Santamore, with over 10 years of experience in the fashion industry, was named President of 12 Fashion Group, Inc.

Principal subsidiaries as December 31, 2020.

The details of the principal subsidiaries of the Company as of December 31, 2020, are set out as follows (additional consolidation may occur in the future):

12 Retail Corporation: a subsidiary of 12 ReTech Corporation Operates its own retail store (as of March 2021 as a subsequent event) and manages two main subsidiaries each of which have multiple subsidiaries; 12 Fashion Group, Inc and Bluwire Group, LLC.

12 Fashion Group Inc; A subsidiary of 12 retail, Inc. has the following subsidiaries;

On February 19, 2019 we acquired Red Wire Group, LLC. (“RWG”) a Utah Limited Liability company pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement whereby the Company exchanged and the members of RWG (the “Members”) Pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement, the Company will acquire (i) 75% of the membership interests of RWG in exchange for 54,000 shares of the Corporation’s Series D-6 Preferred Stock and with a stated value of $5.00 (ii) the remaining 25% of the membership interests of RWG in exchange for 37,500 shares of the Corporation’s Series D-5 Preferred Stock with a stated value of $4.00 per share, RWG operates its own “cut & sew” operation for independent third parties contract to produce cloths operating out of its factory in Salt Lake City, Utah.

As of the end of November 30, 2019, we closed the factory in Utah while 12 Fashion Group retained the customers by completing the orders in process. We were able to produce the products through 3rd party factories in New York City and Los Angeles for less than it cost us to produce the products in our own factory in Salt Lake City, Utah. On March 6, 2020, the company filed a Chapter 11 Bankruptcy filing in Phoenix Arizona. This filing allowed us to sell the equipment we no longer need, pay off the secured creditors and shed all of Red Wire’s debt from our balance sheet. The bankruptcy was discharged on or about September 2020 and all debts were extinguished. 12 Fashion Group continues to service those customers acquired as well as obtaining new accounts by marketing under the d/b/a Red Wire Designs.

Business and Operations

12 ReTech Corporation is a Technology company that is creating software that management believes will create new platforms and tools for smaller retailers to compete with major companies like Amazon and Walmart and delight consumers. To better understand the entire retail environment the Company has acquired operating companies that sell direct to consumers online and in physical stores as well as to other retailers. These acquisitions, in addition to providing current revenue to the Company management believes that they will provide entree to other retailers for the sale and or licensing of our technology solutions.

From an operating perspective, 12 ReTech Corporation is a holding company with two main operating companies that themselves may now and/or in the future own other subsidiaries. They are: 12 Retail Corporation which now operates our casino stores and subsidiaries Bluwire Group, LLC, 12 Fashion Group, Inc and others, and 12 Tech Inc that designs and develops our retail software.

The Company has earned money from four different revenue streams (in declining order): Retail Sales, Wholesale and Online sales of Fashion products, Royalty Payments for 3rd party licensing of the Bluwire name, and technology sales.

Effects on us of the Covid-19 Pandemic

2020 was an unusual year, in that at nearly the same time the entire world was in the grip of the Covid-19 pandemic with unprecedented closings of businesses, a virtual cessation of most business and personal travel, lockdown and stay at home orders. As a Company centered on retail and which derives the most significant portion of its revenue from retail stores in airports and casinos, we were hit particularly hard. In retail, the 1st quarter of every year is the slowest revenue quarter of any year, and even before that first quarter ended all of our retail stores were closed due to the pandemic. Only the casino store was able to be re-opened in mid-December 2020 to lackluster sales. Supply chains were interrupted, and it became difficult to re-stock our retail store for the holiday season which also delayed its re-opening to mid-December, after an aborted restart in September. The supply chain problems also delayed the receipt of fabric and other products needed by our Fashion Group as they began to re-emerge from under the pandemic closures. Our fashion group, being based-in NYC was closed for many months and only reopened in July to produce masks. All of the stores our fashion group would sell to were also closed. Our technology division, 12 Tech Inc, was also hard hit. Not only were retailers closed and conserving cash like we were, but it became apparent that consumers would no longer interact with public touchscreens, which was the corner stone of our technology. In other words, our technology was made obsolete in the blink of an eye.

The Company managed survival during the pandemic by squirreling cash and obtaining PPP and or EIDL loans from the SBA. We attempted to retain all of our key employees utilizing these funds, but as a subsequent event by June 2021 most have found other jobs once the PPP money ran out. This presents challenges for our airport stores re-openings, as it is a long process to get employees certified (“badged”) to work in airports. This will further slow our re-openings during 2021. We also renegotiated various leases and commitments to make us more streamlined and efficient as we re-open and expand. In Japan, we renegotiated out licensing arrangement with ITOYA whereby they managed more of the day to day software for a smaller fee and we eliminated virtually all of our costs there. We also learned that the App we had developed there was strongly used by Japanese consumers of ITOYA and we could re-develop it for the U.S. market. This process is well on the way and management believes will create the next great shopping platform.

Financing and Convertible Debt

To finance our operations the Company has historically resorted to a number of convertible debt providers (see Note 10). These debt providers have in many cases exercised their rights to convert their debt into the Company’s common stock at a discount to market. They then sell that stock to recover their investment and profits. This has over time depressed the value of our Company’s common stock and caused a significant dilution to our shareholders. This could not be avoided, and management believes it was necessary in order to provide continuation of the Company’s business so that we could make significant acquisitions. The Company has been building revenue momentum through these acquisitions and is no longer exclusively reliant on this form of fund raising. The vast majority of the funds the Company has received over the last 4 months have been sourced through non-convertible debt incurred by our operating subsidiaries. There is, however, still a considerable amount of convertible debt that needs to be retired over the near term. Management is working closely with the convertible note holders to find less dilutive alternatives and management believes that in first half of 2021 it will arrive at a solution that will involve less dilution, may require some cash payments from other sources including an equity offering and/or debt offerings through one or more of its subsidiaries as well as leak out provisions negotiated with the convertible debt holders themselves.

The Company had also entered into a $12 million dollar Equity Line of Credit with Oasis Capital which it has been unable to access due to some delays in the audits of one of its acquired subsidiaries. That has been resolved and Management has been in talks with Oasis on amending that original offering, so that the Company may refile the S-1 required with the SEC. The equity line of credit is ineffective at the current share price, and we will not be able to reinstitute at current share price levels.

In addition, Management has received tentative commitments for preferred Equity Funding that if completed would allow the Company to fully retire the convertible debt. Management, however, cautions readers that while promising no Equity or Debt funding can truly be counted upon until the money is in the bank. The exact amount of the final funding and timing have not been fully determined at this time.

However, management believes that now that the Company has significant and growing revenue, has streamlined operations, is set to launch its software products in its own stores in the United States, and has access to more standard debt capital, that the issues associated with the convertible debt have become more manageable and therefore will be resolved more favorably to the Company than was previously observed.

YEAR ENDED December 31, 2020 COMPARED TO THE YEAR ENDED December 31, 2019

Amounts reflected in our financial statements are accounted for under common control accounting (see footnotes).

Revenues

During the year ended December 31, 2020 our revenues decreased to $721,312 from $1,628,607 in the prior comparable year. This represents and decrease of $907,295 or 56%, which is primarily the result of the global pandemic due to COVID 19 on our Bluwire subsidiary and 12 Fashion Group subsidiary. The government forced the closure of all our store locations on March 16, 2020. When allowed, the company was able to re-open one of our store locations in December 2020. We hope to open additional store locations in the near future.

Cost of revenues

During the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 we incurred Cost of Revenues associated with the delivery of our products in the amount of $385,236, as compared to $1,122,086 for the comparable period in 2019. These expenses are related to costs of delivering goods. In 2020, our Cost of Revenues as a percentage of Revenues was 53% as compared to 66% in the prior comparable period. The lower cost of revenues as a percentage of Revenues in 2020 is mainly the result of on cutting purchases of inventory and production materials due to COVID 19.

General and Administrative

Our general and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2020 were $1,762,856, a significant decrease of $361,516 or 17% when compared to $2,124,372 for the year ended December 31, 2019. The decrease is a result of impact due to COVID 19 and forced closure of operations during many months.

Professional fees

Our professional fee expenses for the year ended December 31, 2020 were $683,251 a decrease of $542,448 or 44% when, compared to $1,225,699 for the year ended December 31, 2019. Our professional fees include expenses related to our external auditors, legal costs, and consultants. In order to preserve our subsidiaries operations, the company conserved on spending from the period of closure on March 16, 2020 until December 31, 2020.

Depreciation and amortization

Our depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 2020 were $439,269 an increase of $340,163 or 343% when, compared to $99,107 for the year ended December 31, 2019. Our depreciation and amortization expense includes intangibles and leasehold improvements added October 1, 2019 as part of the Bluwire acquisition. As such the company had twelve months of depreciation and amortization as opposed to three months in 2019.

Other Expense

Our Other Expenses increased by $10,187,508 or 110% to $19,391,799 for the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to $9,204,291 for the year ended December 31, 2019. There are four main components of the increase of the 2020 Other Expense category:

See these components described in further detail below.

Other Income

During 2019, the Company recognized a loss impairment of software development costs of $513,601 December 31, 2019 without a similar comparable expense during the prior period ending December 31, 2019. Periodically, management reviews its capitalized costs to determine if they are properly valued or should they be impaired. As of September 30, 2019. Management had capitalized approximately $513,601 in development costs for its 12 Technology Suite and 12 Sconti APP. While management still believes in the long-term validity of these software applications, the fact remains that adoption by retailers has not met management’s expectations. This led management to cut costs in the 12 Europe and 12 Japan operations. Therefore, management believes that the capitalized costs for the software development should be fully impaired during the 4^th quarter of 2019.

Also, during 2019, the Company recognized other income primarily from 12 Europe declaring bankruptcy on August 26, 2019, whereby all debts of the company were eliminated with the exception of $35,757 in accounts payable resulting in a gain of $445,244. In addition, as discussed in Note 4, the Company effectively foreclosed on its liens against the assets of Emotion Apparel, Inc. taking possession of assets including the brands; Lexi-Luu, Emotion Fashion Group, Punkz Gear and retuned the equity of Emotion Apparel, Inc. and its subsidiaries to the Seller. As a result of the debts related to Emotion Apparel, Inc, which reverted to the Seller including all accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable resulting in a gain of $511,486 to the Company. Lastly, after careful review by management, certain accounts payable were determined not to be valid expenses. These payables totaling approximately $68,000 were offset as a gain to other income.

In 2020, the company filed for bankruptcy for the Red Wire Group. As a result, the company recognized other income as a result of write off of debt associated with Red Wire Group. In addition, the company also closed its Denver Bluwire store location, as such the company wrote off associated intercompany loans.

Interest Expense

There was also a decrease in interest expense of $8,523,487 to $471,579 as of December 31, 2020 compared to $8,995,066 for the period ended December 31, 2019. Decrease in interest expenses is related to decrease in convertible notes’ convertible preferred stock during the same period. As well as a significant decrease in interest expense associated with the additional derivative liability and for the general default reserve.

Change in Derivative Liability

There was a loss as a result of the change of derivative liability of $18,860,260 as of December 31, 2020 compared to gain of $3,524,861 for the period ended December 31, 2019. The reason for the change was because of a change in the calculation method from Lattice model to Black-Scholes model.

General Reserve Expense

The company recognized a general default reserve expense of for the year ended December 31, 2020 of $491,897 compared to 2,139,961 as of December 31, 2019. On July 25, 2019 the Company was served with a lawsuit from Auctus Fund, LLC (“Auctus”). For additional details, see MD&A including the settlement of $120,375 which is still pending. However, management calculated a default reserve which represents the additional amount management would have to payout to all note holders in the event of the default. Management quantified what this amount would be which includes additional premiums, additional accrued interest and default accrued interest in 2019 and updated these calculations in 2020. The total reserve quantified by management amounted to $2,278,648 as of December 31, 2020.

Net Income

During the year ended December 31, 2020, we incurred a net loss of $21,940,137 compared to a net loss of $12,150,698 for the year ended December 31, 2019. This increased loss is primarily the result of the increase in the change in derivative liability and compounded by the significant decrease in revenues as a result of the global pandemic of COVID 19 during 2020.

The Company is expending working capital to further their business plan. This includes the further development, refinement and improvement of their software and its adaptation to various languages and geography. The Company is also expending working capital on the development of new technology which is designed to further enhance the attractiveness of their offerings to their target customer base.

Significant Acquisitions in 2019

In the first quarter of 2019 the Company made two significant acquisitions as detailed above with the acquisition of Red Wire Group on February 19, 2019 and Rune NYC, LLC on March 14, 2019. the Company gained two revenue-producing operations. As also detailed above on October 1, 2019 the Company acquired Bluwire Group, LLC and effective November 1, 2019, the Company acquired Social Decay, LLC dba Social Sunday. With the combination of these acquisitions, management believes that the Company will benefit, and it will significantly expand the sales channels for all of its brands. As of December 31, 2019, the Company performed its annual impairment test on all reporting units and determined that each unit had indicating factors of impairment due to failure to meet respective sales projections. For further details, see Note 3.

Management believes that these acquisitions are “game changers” for the Company for two more reasons; 1) the wholesale customers acquired sell to are and will become targets for the Company to sell its disruptive retail technology solution to other retailers and 2) is already attracting interest among other companies that would like to join the 12 ReTech team either through acquisition or through strategic partnership.

While management believes the results of operations for 2019 for the acquired companies are not indicative of the future results for all of the reasons herein above combined with impact of COVID-19, management believes it is important to show how materially the prior year’s revenues would have been for the Company had they been acquired at the beginning of 2019 without the material improvements we have made since acquiring them.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company has met its current capital requirements primarily through the issuance of debt-equity and preferred stock. Management views the working capital that is raised through debt-equity or preferred equity offerings as being equivalent to raising working capital via common equity subscriptions, but with the added bonus of allowing the common equity value to rise through the passage of time and simultaneous achievement of the Company’s business goals. Any conversion of debt into equity could occur at a higher equity valuation then the Company currently has. The Company has reserved the right to repurchase these debt-equity interests and preferred stock at a predetermined premium should management determine that this is in the best interests of shareholders at an appropriate future point in time.

Operating expenses for the Company have been paid from revenue as well as from the issuance of debt-equity and preferred stock subscriptions. At December 31, 2020 the Company had a deficit in working capital (current liabilities in excess of current assets) of $31,490,395. A portion of this working capital deficit has been financed loans from stockholders. As of December 31, 2020, amounts owed to stockholders totaled $383,753. At December 31, 2019, the Company had a deficit in working capital (current liabilities in excess of current assets) of $11,786,147. A portion of this working capital deficit has been financed loans from stockholders. As of December 31, 2019, amounts owed to stockholders totaled $384,091. The increase in working capital deficit when compared to December 31, 2019 was principally due to an increase derivative liabilities and to a lesser extent, increase in accounts payable.

The Company has financed our cash flow requirements through the issuance of debt-equity and preferred stock. As the Company expands, we may continue to experience net negative cash flows from operations, pending generation of significant revenues. Additionally, we anticipate obtaining additional financing to fund operations through debt-equity and preferred stock offerings to the extent available or to obtain additional financing to the extent necessary to augment our working capital balances.

Management believes that our acquisition strategy will successfully provide significant revenues, potential profits as well as access to traditional bank and asset-based credit lines. In addition, Management believes that existing shareholders, lenders and prospective new investors will provide the additional cash needed to meet our obligations as they become due.

The Company filed a Certificate of Designation on January 9, 2019 to create 1,000,000 Series D-5 Convertible Preferred Stock with par value $0.00001 and stated value of $4.00 per share. Also on January 9, 2019, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation to create One Million (1,000,000) Series D-6 Convertible Preferred Stock with par value $0.00001 and stated value of $5.00 per share.

The Company filed an amendment on January 11, 2019 to Series C Preferred shares where each issued and outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to 8,000,000,000 votes at each meeting of shareholders of the Company with respect to any and all matters presented to the shareholders of the Company for their action or consideration (by vote or written consent). Holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall vote together with the holders of Common Shares as a single class.

The Company also filed with the State of Nevada an Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation on March 8, 2018, that increased it authorized common shares from One billion to eight billion common shares authorized. On March 14, 2019, the Company entered into a PIPE Equity Purchase Agreement whereby an institutional investor agreed to purchase up to $500,000 worth of the Company’s D-2 Preferred Shares with a $2.00 face value at to be determined discount to face value. Concurrent with the execution of this Agreement, the Company sold 103,500 preferred D-2 Preferred Shares and received net proceeds after expenses of $100,000 (Tranche #1). The D-2 Preferred Shares are convertible to common shares after a 6 month or more holding period at market price. (See Form 8-K filed on March 20, 2019).

Concurrent with the execution of the PIPE Funding Agreement the Company executed an Exchange Agreement with the same institution investor whereby that investor exchange all of its Series D-1 preferred shares for newly issued Series D-2 Preferred Shares. (See Form 8-K filed on March 20, 2019).

In connection with the with PIPE Funding Agreement and the Exchange Agreement listed above the Company filed with the State of Nevada a new Certificate of Designation which took 2.5 million of the blank check preferred shares the Company has and designated them as Series D-2 Preferred Shares. (See Form 8-K filed on March 20, 2019).

On September 25. 2019, the Company’s Rune subsidiary entered into two separate future receivables purchase agreements with Vox Funding and received gross proceeds for $49,000 which were used in part to retire a previous and smaller obligation to Vox Funding. The Agreements provided for payment over 6 months and carries a fee of $1,470. This obligation is not convertible under any terms into Company Stock.

On September 26, 2019, the Company sold 9,009 Series D-2 Convertible Shares to Oasis Capital and received $10,000.

In connection with the acquisition of Bluwire Group, LLC, on October 3, 2019, one of the Sellers of Bluwire provided $300,000 capital contribution to its Bluwire. This obligation is not convertible into Company stock under any terms. This capital contribution to Bluwire has not been adequately documented. In Addition, on October 15, 2019, the Company’s Bluwire subsidiary entered into a future receivable purchase agreement with Libertas Funding and received $343,000. This agreement provides for payment over 8 months and caries a fee of $7,000. This obligation is not convertible under any terms into Company stock. Lastly, on November 5, 2019, the Company’s Rune subsidiary entered into a future receivables purchase agreement with Vox funding and received gross proceeds for $145,500 which were used in part to retire a previous and smaller obligation to Vox Funding. The Agreement provided for payment over 6 months and carries a fee of $4,500. This obligation is not convertible under any terms into Company Stock. After the March 16, 2020 Covid shut down, all payment ceased by verbal mutual agreement. In May 2021, the Company entered into a verbal agreement with Vox to repay $250 per week and all collection efforts are put on hold and forbearance on other receivable holders.

On March 18, 2020, the Company entered into a back end promissory note agreement with Adar Alef, LLC (“Adar”) for loans totaling $33,600. The consideration to the Company was $30,000 with $3,600 of legal fees. As a subsequent event, on March 25, 2020, the Company entered into a back end promissory note agreement with LG Capital, LLC (“LG”) for loans totaling $33,600. The consideration to the Company was $30,000 with $3,600 of legal fees. The note is convertible after 181 days at a (i) $0.0075 ceiling or (ii) 60% of the lowest trading price over the past twenty trading days prior to the conversion date.

On March 5, 2020, the Company’s Bluwire subsidiary entered into a second future receivable purchase agreement with Reliant Funding and received $83,000. This agreement provides for payment over 6 months and carries a fee of $3,000. This obligation is not convertible under any terms into Company stock. This agreement has been in forbearance since April 2021, and the Company pays $10 per week until Bluwire Newark is re-opened.

In the future we will need to generate sufficient revenues from operations in order to eliminate or reduce the need to sell additional stock or obtain additional loans. However, there can be no assurance we will be successful in raising the necessary funds to execute our high growth business plan.

At December 31, 2020, the Cash and Cash Equivalents balance was $11,784 compared to December 31, 2019, the Cash and Cash Equivalents balance was $118,860.

During the year ended December 31, 2020, the current liabilities increased by $19,409,181 when compared to December 31, 2019. The primary reason for the increase was the increase in derivative liabilities of $18,438,798 to $23,798,240 and accounts payable of $1,020,96 to $3,187,592 as of December 31, 2020 compared to $5,359,422 and $2,167,496 as of December 31, 2019. Due to Covid 19 pandemic, the company tried to preserve operations and obtained extended terms from most of its creditors.

As discussed earlier, it is likely that the Company will need to obtain additional working capital through debt-equity and preferred stock capital raises until the Company can generate sufficiently profitable revenues to sustain the cash burn rate that the Company’s business plan calls for.

Although, our business plan calls for high growth, we anticipate that we may continue to incur operating losses during the next twelve months. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies at our stage, particularly companies in new and rapidly evolving markets. Our roll up acquisition strategy seeks to mitigate some of those risks, but until more acquisitions can be completed, consolidated, and we reap the benefits of consolidation, we cannot accurately include their results in our projection of cash needs.

Risks include, but are not limited to, an evolving and unpredictable business model and the management of growth and the consummation and assimilation of multiple acquisitions. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. To address these risks, we must, among other things, increase our customer base, implement and successfully execute our business and marketing strategy, respond to competitive developments, and attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in addressing such risks, and the failure to do so can have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition, and results of operations.

Impact of COVID-19

Like most other business in the United States, our businesses have been severely impacted by the COVID-19 Pandemic. While the first quarter of any calendar year is historically the slowest quarter of the year for revenues, for our main operating subsidiaries the first quarter of 2020 was severely impacted by US Government’s business shutdowns and stay at home orders related to COVID-19. We derive most of our revenue from our 12 Retail Corporation, which is itself composed of two Operating units: 12 Fashion Group and Bluwire Group, LLC.

In response to the President’s “stay at home” orders, on March 16, 2020, we promptly laid off almost all of our 12 Fashion Group employees and contractors. 12 Fashion Group retained three employee/contractors and focused on producing and selling of washable reusable masks, both wholesale and direct to consumer online.

Our Bluwire retail stores in Newark airport, Dallas airport, and JFK international airport were temporarily closed on or about March 17, 2020. Our Casino location was temporarily closed on or about March 17, 2020 when the Mohegan Sun Casino itself was closed. We laid off all of our Bluwire employee/contractors except two members of the headquarters staff who continued to source innovative products for our stores when they re-open, some of which will be uniquely desired by consumers due to changing buying habits due to COVID-19.

The financial effects of these closures are reflected in the Management Discussion and Analysis.

The Cares Act and the Payroll Protection Program SBA Loans (PPP Loans).

The Company has applied for PPP Loans for all of its U.S. operating Companies, and is in the process of analyzing if it would qualify for similar governmental assistance for its reduced operating unit in Japan (12 Japan Ltd). The Company has qualified and received for an aggregate of $294,882 of PPP Loans for its operating companies. These funds are being used to re-hire previously laid off personnel where appropriate and hire new personal that management believes better fits the post COVID-19 shut down environment. The Company is hiring personnel that will help the operating units generate revenues in a more contactless environment and to create changes to our cutting-edge retail software to help our stores and well as other retailers attract consumers in this new environment. The Cares Act provides very favorable terms for the repayment or forgiveness of the monies lent to qualifying businesses like ours. While the final rules are not yet formalized, the initial guidelines allow for complete forgiveness for monies spent on approved expenses such as payroll and labor with non- approved expenses to be paid back over 2 years at 1% annual interest with no payments for the first 6 months after receipt. No collateral was pledged for these loans and management did not have to sign any personal guarantees. Management will make every effort to utilize these PPP loan funds in a manner that may allow for complete forgiveness of the loan(s) while providing the best opportunity for the continuity and growth of the business.

During the COVID-19 shutdown period management sourced new products and vendors for its businesses and is now optimistic that it will shortly obtain additional funding of debt or preferred equity to grow our business.

Reliance on the SEC’s March 25, 2019 order regarding extension of filing deadlines due to COVID-19

As a direct result of the COVID-19 shutdowns and travel restrictions, the SEC provided for any public company impacted by COVID-19 to extend its filing of its 10-K or 10-Q or other required filings for 45 additional days and would still be eligible for the further normal extensions of 15 and 5 days respectively. As noted herein, we have been extremely impacted on an operational level, delayed in obtaining information from our foreign subsidiaries in Hong Kong and Japan, as well as being delayed in our ability to obtain capital for the professional fees to complete our filings, and further compromised by the fact that our CEO and CFO are both restricted from travel to the United States at this time as they are in Hong Kong and Japan respectively. Therefore, we filed for a 45 day and 15-day NT10–KA Filing extensions in reliance on the March 25, 2020, order and have further been in communication with the SEC for additional consideration for timely filing under these extraordinary circumstances.

However, due to cash restraints with all of our closed operations, the Company was unable to meet any deadline to complete this audit and the quarterly reports (forms 10-Q) in a timely fashion during 2020 and the first quarter 2021. The Company retained auditor BF Borgers on April 28, 2021 and will complete all delinquent filings in the second quarter 2021. With our businesses reopening and revenues being generated, Management believes that it can continue to make timely filings in the future.

Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern. Since we have not yet generated significant revenue, we have negative cash flows from operations, and negative working capital we have included a reference to the substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern in connection with our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020. Our total accumulated deficit at December 31, 2020 was $44,475,900 compared to $22,756,345 as of December 31, 2019.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which assumes that adequate sources of financing will be obtained as required and that our assets will be realized, and liabilities settled in the ordinary course of business. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we may cease operations and not be able to execute on operating plans. Accordingly, these consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability of assets and classification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

Elected Mandatory Filer Status

The Company filed Form 8A-12G with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 16, 2018 and therefore became a mandatory filer with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported assets, liabilities, and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We use assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Future events, however, may differ markedly from our current expectations and assumptions. We believe there have been no significant changes in accounting policies during the year ended December 31, 2019. See Note 3 to the consolidated statements in this Annual Report for a complete discussion of our significant accounting policies and estimates.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet adopted, accounting standards in order to determine their effects, if any, on its consolidated results of operation, financial position, or cash flows. Based on that review, the Company believes that none of these pronouncements will have a significant effect on its consolidated financial statements. See Note 3 to the consolidated statements in this Annual Report for a complete discussion of our significant accounting policies and estimates.

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

12 ReTech Corporation

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of 12 ReTech Corporation and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2019 and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss, changes in stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the year then ended, 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, 2019 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As disclosed in the financial statements, the Company has suffered substantial net losses, has not generated significant revenue from its operations, and will require additional funds to maintain operations, all of which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding these matters are disclosed in Note 2. 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 these 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 law 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, 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 provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
