ADVANTEGO CORPORATION
Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 and 2017
Note A – Organization and Business
Organization and Nature of Business
Advantego Corporation ("Advantego," formerly Golden Eagle International, Inc., or "GEII") was incorporated in Colorado on July 21, 1988. Since 2008, GEII had engaged in contract gold milling operations in the state of Nevada in the United States. On October 27, 2016, GEII completed a reverse merger with Advantego Technologies, Inc., which resulted in a change of control and the perpetuation of Advantego Technologies, Inc.'s management and business operations. Concurrent with the merger, the combined entity executed a quasi-reorganization, thereby eliminating GEII's losses accumulated since its inception through the date of the merger.
Advantego Technologies, Inc. was incorporated in California on July 29, 2016. Advantego Technologies, Inc. develops software products and related services which are designed to enable an organization to rapidly and cost-effectively create a comprehensive promotional and marketing campaign using social media marketing, customer relationship management, and lead generation.
Effective February 1, 2018 and pursuant to Board authorization and majority shareholder approval, the Company changed the name of GEII to Advantego Corporation (amending GEII's Articles of Incorporation accordingly), cancelled its Series A, C, and D preferred shares, and effected a 1-for-11 reverse stock split on its issued and outstanding shares of common stock that became effective on the OTC Markets trading platform on February 22, 2018. Unless otherwise noted, impacted amounts and share information included in the financial statements and notes thereto have been adjusted to reflect the stock split as if it had occurred on the first day of the earliest period presented.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements represent the consolidated operations of Advantego and Advantego Technologies, Inc., collectively "the Company," "we," "us," as the consolidated entity, with all intercompany transactions eliminated.
Going Concern
The consolidated financial statements in this report 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. Accordingly, the 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. The Company has not yet achieved profitable operations, has accumulated losses of $1,023,098, since its inception through March 31, 2018 and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business, all of which casts substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Though our line of business involves proven technologies, we can offer no assurances that we will be able to obtain adequate financing to implement our business plan and remain a going concern
Note B – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company accounts for fair value measurements in accordance with accounting standard ASC 820-10-50, "Fair Value Measurements." This guidance defines fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The three levels are defined as follows:
Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
Level 3 inputs to valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair measurement.
The Company's financial instruments consist of cash, accounts payable, and notes payable. The carrying amount of cash and accounts payable approximates fair value because of the short-term nature of these items. The carrying amount of notes payable approximates fair value as the individual borrowings bear interest at market interest rates and are also short-term in nature.
Use of Estimates
Preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the financial statements.
Concentration of Credit Risk
From time to time our cash balances, held at a major financial institution, exceed the federally insured limits of $250,000. Our management believes that the financial institution is financially sound and the risk of loss is low. Our cash balances did not exceed federally insured limits at March 31, 2018 or December 31, 2017.
Approximately 90% of the Company's revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 100% of the accounts receivable at March 31, 2018 are with one customer. This customer is a certifier of automobile collision repair shops, which distributes the Company's product to the repair shops in its network. The receivable balance was paid to the Company in full in April 2018.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For the statement of cash flows, any liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of acquisition are considered to be cash equivalents.
Inventory
The Company's inventory consists of controller boxes that the Company configures with digital signage software upon customer order. Each box is identical and is carried at cost.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Maintenance and repair costs are charged to expense as incurred, and renewals and improvements that extend the useful life of assets are capitalized. Depreciation on property and equipment is computed using the straight-line method over the assets' estimated useful lives as follows:
Vehicles
|
5 years
|
|
Office equipment
|
4-10 years
|
Long-Lived Assets
We periodically review our long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Impairment losses are recognized when the estimated future cash flows are less than the carrying amount of the asset calculated on discounted cash flow basis. For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, we did not recognize any impairment charges.
Revenue Recognition
In May 2017, the Company launched the online directory and digital signage components of its ongoing licensing services it provides to third parties. The Company has entered into various licensing arrangements to be recognized as revenue over the life of the licensing agreements ranging from one to twelve months. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company recognized $43,977 in revenues, which were comprised of $39,900 in digital signage and $4,077 in online directory listing sales. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, $1,920 and $ 4,215, respectively, of online directory listing sales were deferred to future periods. The March 31, 2018 accounts receivable balance of $38,500 consists of amounts owed for digital signage hardware and software, payment for which is billed to customers upon shipment (the point at which revenue is deemed earned). Since customers pre-pay via the Company's website for online directory services to be rendered during a subsequent period, and the March 31, 2018 receivable balance was collected in full in April 2018, management determined no allowance for doubtful accounts was necessary at March 31, 2018.
Stock Based Compensation
We measure stock-based compensation cost relative to the estimated fair value of the awards on the grant date using a Black-Scholes options pricing model. We recognize the cost as the awards vest.
Income (Loss) Per Share
The computation of basic earnings (loss) per common share is based on the net income (loss) divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during each period.
The computation of diluted earnings (loss) per common share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period plus the common stock equivalents as detailed in the following chart. During the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the inclusion of these common stock equivalents on the consolidated statement of operations would have resulted in a weighted average shares fully diluted number that was anti-dilutive, and as such they are excluded.
Fully diluted shares for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 are as follows:

|

|
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the liability method. Under the liability method, future tax liabilities and assets are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the amounts reported in the financial statements and their respective tax bases. Future tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted or substantially enacted income tax rates expected to apply when the asset is realized or the liability settled.
Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax law and rates on the date of enactment.
Effect of New Accounting Pronouncements
There are no recent accounting pronouncements that are expected to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

On September 22, 2016 ($50,000), January 12, 2017 ($25,000), and March 27, 2017 ($25,000), the Company entered into notes payable with a single investor totaling $100,000. The notes carried an interest rate of 6% and each matured one year following its issuance date. The notes and accrued interest were convertible into the Company's common stock at a fixed rate of $.275 per share. Upon the notes' inceptions, there was an aggregate beneficial conversion feature totaling $40,000, which was being amortized and netted against the aggregate principal balance as a debt discount. Aggregate amortization of the debt discount totaled $6,158 and $2,500, and interest expense was $132 and $750 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. On January 8, 2018, the noteholder converted the $100,000 principal plus accrued interest into 386,593 shares of common stock (Note D).

(b)
|
On September 25, 2017, the Company entered into a note payable in the amount of $25,000. The note carried an interest rate of 6% and matured on September 25, 2018. The note and accrued interest were convertible at the option of the lender into the Company's common stock at a fixed rate of $.275 per share. Upon the note's inception, there was a beneficial conversion feature of $25,000, which was being amortized and netted against the principal balance as a debt discount. Debt discount amortization and interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 totaled $18,408 and $33, respectively. On January 8, 2018, the noteholder converted the $25,000 principal plus accrued interest into 92,273 shares (Note D).
|
(c)
|
On November 30, 2017, the Company entered into a note payable in the amount of $25,000. The note carried an interest rate of 6% and matured on November 30, 2018. The note and accrued interest were convertible at the option of the lender into the Company's common stock at a fixed rate of $.275 per share. Upon the note's inception, there was a beneficial conversion feature of $25,000, which was being amortized and netted against the principal balance as a debt discount. Debt discount amortization and interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 totaled $22,917 and $33, respectively. On January 8, 2018, the noteholder converted the $25,000 principal plus accrued interest into 91,364 shares (Note D).
|
(d)
|
On March 2, 2018, the Company entered into an uncollateralized note payable with an unaffiliated investor in the amount of $301,875. The note carries an interest rate of 12% and matures on March 2, 2019. The note and accrued interest, or any portion thereof, are convertible at the option of the lender, into the Company's common stock at a rate of 58% of the lowest market trading price per share during the 25 days preceding conversion. At the note's inception, there was an original issue discount of $39,375, a transaction fee of $12,500, and a finder's fee of common stock valued at $15,000 (Note D), which in the aggregate resulted in a total discount of $66,875 to be amortized to interest expense over the life of the note, and net proceeds received by the Company of $250,000.
Additionally, the note's variable conversion rate component requires that the note be valued at its stock redemption value (i.e., "if-converted" value) pursuant to ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, with the excess over the note's undiscounted face value being deemed a premium to be added to the principal balance and amortized to additional paid-in capital over the life of the note. As such, the Company recorded a premium on the note of $284,063 as a reduction to additional paid-in capital based on a discounted "if-converted" rate of $.32 per share (58% of the $.55 lowest trading price during the 25 days preceding the note's issuance), which computed to 781,250 shares of "if-converted" common stock with a redemption value of $585,938 due to $.75 per share fair market value of the Company's stock on the note's date of issuance. Debt discount amortization is recorded as interest expense, while debt premium amortization is recorded as an increase to additional paid-in capital. Debt discount and premium amortizations for the three months ended March 31, 2018 totaled $4,753 and $23,348, respectively, while interest expense was $2,264. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company made $4,486 and $2,264 in principal and interest payments, respectively.

Note D – Stockholders' Equity
Common Stock
We are authorized to issue 2,000,000,000 shares of our $.0001 par value common stock, of which 15,626,398 and 14,664,718 were issued and outstanding at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.
On February 1, 2018, the Company issued 17,273 shares of common stock based on the stock's approximate trading price of $.75 per share for total value of $13,818. The shares were issued to an independent consultant for services to be rendered over the year following issuance. The Company recorded the shares as a prepaid expense (Note F).
On February 5, 2018, the Company issued 20,000 shares of common stock to an unaffiliated individual as a finder's fee in connection with the procurement of a variable rate convertible note with an unrelated party as detailed in Note C (d). The stock was valued at $15,000 based on the per-share stock price of $.75 on the issuance date, and has been recorded as a debt discount to be netted with the underlying convertible note and amortized to interest expense over the length of the note.
During August and September 2016, we sold 33,058 shares of our common stock, with warrants to purchase an additional 545,454 shares of our common stock, to a group of private investors for $100,000. The warrants were issued prior to the reverse merger (Note A), and were subsequently still deemed issued and outstanding. The Series A warrants have expired, while the Series B and C warrants expire on June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2019, respectively. The warrants were originally exercisable at prices between $0.55 and $2.20 share at any time between June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2019. Each series of warrants was valued using the Black-Scholes Options Pricing Model resulting in total warrant value of $85,833. The remaining proceeds of $14,167 were allocated to the common stock. Black-Scholes data inputs used to value the warrants are as follows:

Preferred Stock
Our Articles of Incorporation provide that we may issue up to 10,000,000 shares of various series of preferred stock. Subject to the requirements of the Colorado Business Corporation Act, the Board of Directors may issue the preferred stock in series with rights and preferences as the Board of Directors may determine appropriate, without shareholder approval. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, 4,500,000 Series B Preferred shares had been authorized for issuance, and 240,000 Series B preferred shares were issued and outstanding. These 240,000 Series B shares are convertible into 10,909 common shares.
Note E – Related Party Transactions
We incur various consulting, management, and software licensing expenses with our officers, directors, and companies owned by our officers and directors. During the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, we incurred $112,000 and $124,500, respectively, with these individuals and companies, and we had payable balances of $340,597 and $417,579 at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.
An entity formerly controlled by Mark Bogani, a former officer and Director, acts as our transfer agent. We incurred fees with the transfer agent of $2,110 and $548 during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and had payable balances of $0 and $500 at March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. Mr. Bogani is no longer a board member and does not have a controlling stake in the transfer agent as of March 31, 2018.
Note F – Prepaid Expenses
The Company's prepaid expenses consist of unamortized common stock that was prepaid for consulting services (Note D) and $1,660 in prepaid legal fees. The prepaid stock's value on the February 1, 2018 issuance date of $15,000 is being amortized monthly over the year following the issuance. The Company recorded amortization expense of $2,303 during February and March 2018, resulting in unamortized prepaid stock of $11,515 and total prepaid expenses of $13,175 at March 31, 2018.
Note G – Subsequent Events
The Company has evaluated its subsequent events through the date of this report issuance and determined there are no additional events to disclose.
Advantego Corporation ("Advantego," formerly Golden Eagle International, Inc., or "GEII") was incorporated in Colorado on July 21, 1988. GEII had previously engaged in contract gold milling operations primarily in the state of Nevada in the United States. On October 27, 2016, GEII completed a reverse merger with Advantego Technologies, Inc., which resulted in a change of control and the perpetuation of Advantego Technologies, Inc.'s management and business operations. Concurrent with the merger, the combined entity executed a quasi-reorganization, thereby eliminating GEII's losses accumulated since its inception through the date of the merger. On February 1, 2018, we changed our name from GEII to Advantego Corporation and our trading symbol from MYNG to ADGO. On January 31, 2018, our shareholders approved a 1-for-11 reverse stock split, which was effective February 22, 2018. Unless otherwise indicated, all per-share information in this report has been adjusted to reflect this reverse stock split. All references to "the Company," "we," "us," or "our," include the operations of Advantego Technologies, Inc. consolidated with Advantego.
Advantego Technologies, Inc. is a California corporation formed on July 29, 2016 that designs, develops and implements subscription-based digital communication and enterprise software services that are designed to enable an organization to rapidly create comprehensive promotional and marketing campaigns. We offer a variety of products and services that utilize its proprietary software platform to integrate Third Party "best in class" technologies with our customers' internal data and applications to provide all-inclusive, multi-functional systems that are easily managed once deployed. These integrated services can be delivered to multiple locations and are used by large enterprises or networks in specific industries. All participating parties can then benefit from the economies of scale to enhance internal operations, reduce costs, and increase marketing efficiency.
We maintain a small core group of employees and outsource all of our Product Development, Product Maintenance, Sales & Marketing, Accounting, Investor Relations, Legal, and Project Management services. We feel that this approach is more cost-effective, provides greater flexibility, and the necessary resources can be applied quickly to specific projects and tasks as needed.
We launched our field testing of various products and services in May 2017, and commenced fulfillment of a revenue generating contract of our digital signage product to a network of certified auto care collision centers in the United States during the three months ended March 31, 2018. The digital signage allows the auto care collision centers to display, on a large television screen or counter displays, information concerning the center, their certifications and other informational and promotional content associated with the automotive industry. As of April 30, 2018, we had 327 auto care collision centers using our digital signage product.
We also provide subscription-based online directory listing services and we are a reseller of software that allows potential customers to better locate an auto collision center on the internet. As of April 30, 2018, 30 auto care collision centers were using this software.
We did not recognize any revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2017. During the three months ended March 31, 2018 we had revenues of $43,977, which were comprised of $39,900 in digital signage and $4,077 in online directory listing sales. The related cost of sales consisted of $23,856 in inventory, and $6,383 in programming, software, and shipping. Our general and administrative expenses totaled $182,440 and $159,532 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and consist primarily of officer wages, outsourced services, and professional fees. Interest expense was $75,134 and $5,029 during the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The large increase during 2018 was due to the conversion of various convertible notes payable, as their unamortized debt discounts of $67,419 were recognized as interest expense upon conversion.

On January 8, 2018, holders of notes, in the principal amount of $199,090, converted their notes, plus accrued interest of $28,752, into 828,517 shares of our common stock at $.275 per share pursuant to their underlying convertible promissory notes. Our Chief Financial Officer, Philip Grey, also converted $38,500 in accrued wages to 95,890 shares of our common stock at $.402 per share.
See Note C to the March 31, 2018 financial statements, which are a part of this report, for a discussion of our convertible notes payable.
Other than funding our operating expenses and paying our notes payable, we did not, as of March 31, 2018, have any significant capital requirements. However, now that the Company has completed its reverse stock split, name change, and symbol change, the Company will actively pursue additional capital to expand the sales and marketing of its products and services and the long- term branding of the Company.
See Note B to the financial statements included as part of this report for a description of our significant accounting policies.
Not Applicable. The Company is a "smaller reporting company."
An evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Principal Executive and Financial Officers of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report on Form 10-Q. Disclosure controls and procedures are procedures designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, such as this Form 10-Q, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and is communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive and Financial Officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that, as of March 31, 2018, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective for the following reasons:
· |
the lack of formal written documentation relating to the design of our controls.
|
· |
we did not maintain adequate segregation of duties related to job responsibilities for initiating, authorizing, and recording of certain transactions due to the small size of our company.
|
Notwithstanding the above, a controls system cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.
We have revised our internal operations and now have sufficient personnel to provide adequate risk assessment and functions over financial reporting.
Other than hiring sufficient personnel to provide adequate risk assessment as explained previously, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2018 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
The Company is not a party to any material pending legal proceedings and, to the best of its knowledge; its properties are not the subject of any such proceedings.
See the risk factors described in Item 1A of the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017.
