NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Alpha Investment Inc, formerly GoGo Baby, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on February 22, 2013 under the laws of the State of Delaware to develop, create, manufacture and market, toys for small children which would be designed to attach to car seats and amuse and entertain children during a drive, without distracting the attention of the driver. The Company, however, encountered significant constraints in raising sufficient capital to fully implement its business plan.

To better reflecting management’s shifted focus of the Company’s business to real estate and other commercial lending, on March 30, 2017, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State changing its name from “Gogo Baby, Inc.” to “Alpha Investment Inc.”. The name change and a corresponding change in the Company’s OTC markets trading symbol from GGBY to ALPC received approval from FINRA and became effective as of April 19, 2017.

On March 11, 2019, the Company, through Alpha Mortgage Notes I, LLC (the “SPV”) entered into an operating agreement with Alameda Partners LLC, a Utah limited liability company (“Alameda Partners”). Alameda Partners acquired a ten percent (10%) equity interest in the SPV in exchange for a payment of $1,000,000 to the Company and is the managing member of the SPV. The capital is intended for use in implementing the Company’s strategy of acquiring commercial real estate performing notes and support other related growth initiatives and assets acquisitions for the Company The principals of Alameda Partners have significant long-term of experience in the commercial real estate industry as property developers, owners, and managers and currently hold over $50 million in commercial real estate assets. Pursuant to the operating agreement for the SPV, Alameda Partners is entitled to monthly distributions in cash or stock equal to $10,000.  As of September 30, 2022, the SPV has not completed any transactions. On July 30, 2020, Alpha entered a joint venture transaction with Parsons Energy Group, LLC (“Parsons”) with respect to leasehold mining rights then held by Parsons on approximately 1,200 acres located in Independence, Wisconsin.

On July 21, 2021, the Company and Parsons entered into an Unwinding Agreement (the “Unwinding Agreement“), pursuant to which the joint venture was unwound. Under the Unwinding Agreement, Parsons returned the Series 2020 Preferred Shares to the Company for cancellation and the Company assigned the Interest in Legacy Sand back to Parsons and exchanged mutual releases.

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN

Future issuances of the Company’s equity or debt securities will be required for the Company to continue to finance its operations and continue as a going concern. The Company’s present revenues are insufficient to meet operating expenses. The financial statements of the Company have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $10,250,322 as of September 30, 2022. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company used $109,111 of cash in operations and incurred a net loss of $2,957,601. The Company requires capital for its contemplated operational and marketing activities to take place. The Company's ability to raise additional capital through the future issuances of common stock is unknown. Securing additional financing, the successful development of the Company's contemplated plan of operations, and its transition, ultimately, to the attainment of profitable operations are necessary for the Company to continue operations. The ability to successfully resolve these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements of the Company do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these aforementioned uncertainties.

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with instructions for Form 10-Q, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) which we considered as necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for future periods or the full year.

Principles of Consolidation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, Alpha Mortgage Notes I, LLC, which is controlled by the Company through its 90% ownership interest, and Paris Med CP-LLC (“Paris Med”), variable interest entity for which the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary, (collectively, the “Company”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods presented. The Company is required to make judgments and estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the useful life and recoverability of long-lived assets, deferred income tax asset valuations and loss contingences. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Although, we believe our judgments and estimates are appropriate, actual future results may be different; if different assumptions or conditions were to prevail, the results could be materially different from our reported results.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents include short-term, highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of acquisition. As of September 30, 2022, the Company has $127 in cash and no cash equivalents.

Loans Receivable, net and Allowance for Losses

The Company records its investments in loans receivable at the lower of cost or fair value. Costs are the gross loan receivables less unamortized costs of issuance and deferred origination fees. Origination fees collected at the time of investment are recorded against the loans receivable and amortized into net interest income over the lives of the related loans. Issuance costs incurred are capitalized along with the initial investment and amortized against net interest income over the lives of the related loans.

When a loan receivable is placed on non-accrual status, the related interest receivable is charged to bad debt of the current period. If a non-accrual loan is returned to accrual status, the accrued interest existing at the date the residential loan is placed on non-accrual status and interest during the non-accrual period are recorded as interest income as of the date the loan no longer meets the non-accrual criteria.

The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses on its investments in real estate loans receivable for estimated credit impairment.  Management’s estimate of losses is based on several factors including the types and dollar amounts of loans in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, prevailing economic conditions and the underlying collateral securing the loan.  Additions to the allowance are provided through a charge to earnings and are based on an assessment of certain factors, which may indicate estimated losses on the loans.  Actual losses on loans are recorded first as a reduction to the allowance for loan losses.  Generally, subsequent recoveries of amounts previously charged off are recognized as income.

Estimating allowances for loan losses requires significant judgment about the underlying collateral, including liquidation value, condition of the collateral, competency and cooperation of the related borrower and specific legal issues that affect loan collections or taking possession of the property on an individual loan receivable basis.  Management has established an allowance of $1,633,380 as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Equipment and fixtures will be depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated asset lives, 5 years. As at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company recorded $79 and $316 in property and equipment, net of $1,798 and $1,561 in accumulated depreciation, and recorded $237 in depreciation expense at September 30, 2022 and 2021.

Mortgage Receivables

Equipment and Fixtures

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for its income taxes in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 740, "Income Taxes". Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax balances. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted or substantially enacted tax rates expected to apply to the taxable income in the years in which those differences are expected to be recovered or settled. 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. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the date of enactment or substantive enactment.

Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes

The Company applies the provisions of ASC Topic 740-10-25, Income Taxes – Overall – Recognition (“ASC Topic 740-10-25”) with respect to the accounting for uncertainty of income tax positions. ASC Topic 740-10-25 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC Topic 740-10-25 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. As of September 30, 2022, tax years since 2014 remain open for IRS audit. The Company has received no notice of audit from the Internal Revenue Service for any of the open tax years.

Revenue Recognition and Investment Income

Origination fees collected at the time of investment are recorded against the loans receivable and amortized into net interest income over the lives of the related loans. Issuance costs incurred are capitalized along with the initial investment and amortized against net interest income over the lives of the related loans. The Company records interest income in accordance with ASC subtopic 835-30 "Imputation of Interest", using the effective interest method. The following is a summary of the components of the Company’s net investment income for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021

When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, the related interest receivable is charged to bad debt of the current period. If a non-accrual loan is returned to accrual status, the accrued interest existing at the date the residential loan is placed on non-accrual status and interest during the non-accrual period are recorded as interest income as of the date the loan no longer meets the non-accrual criteria.

The Company suspends recognizing interest income when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all payments according to the contractual terms of the underlying agreements. Management considers all information available in assessing collectability. Collectability is measured on a receivable-by-receivable basis by either the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the effective rate, the observable market price for the receivable or the fair value of the collateral if the receivable is collateral dependent. Large groups of smaller balance homogeneous receivables, such as pre-settlement funding transactions, are collectively assessed for collectability. Receivables, including those arising from the sale of loan origination services, is charged off when in the Company's judgment, the receivable or portion of the receivable is considered uncollectible.

Payments received on past due receivables and finance receivables the Company has suspended recognizing interest income on are applied first to principal and then to accrued interest. Interest income on past due receivables and finance receivables, if received, is recorded using the cash basis method of accounting. Additionally, the Company generally does not resume recognition of interest income once it has been suspended. At December 31, 2021, the Company evaluated the collectability of its loans and lines of credit receivable, in light of economic conditions during the Covid-19 pandemic, established an allowance account to bring these to $0. Accordingly, there is no imputed interest receivable for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Variable Interest Entity

Paris Med 

Omega Commercial Finance Corp.

Variable Interest Entity

The Company holds a 10% interest in Paris Med, of which the remaining 90% interest is held by Omega.  Through December 31, 2021, the Company has provided 100% of the funding to Paris Med, which has provided a construction loan to a third party.  This loan receivable is the sole asset of Paris Med.  The Company determined that Paris Med was a variable interest entity based on various qualitative and quantitative factors including but not limited to: 1) financing of Paris Med’s sole asset was received by the Company, which is disproportionate to the Company’s ownership interest and 2) the Company and Omega, a related party, organized the entity for the purpose of facilitating the Company’s activities.  As of September 30, 2022, the Company is considered the primary beneficiary because it has provided substantially all of its financial support and is the only party at risk.  As of December 31, 2021, Paris Med has total assets of $0 because Company established a full reserve against this VIE until such time as the loan is repaid.  See Note 4.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, Paris Med had no activity. At December 31 2021 and September 30, 2022, the Company established a full reserve against this VIE until such time as the loan is repaid.

Fair Value

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash, accounts payable and notes payable approximate their estimated fair market value based on the short-term maturity of this instrument. The carrying value of the Company’s loans receivable approximate fair value because their terms approximate market rates.

Net Loss Per Share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the year. Dilutive loss per share reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in the losses of the Company. 36,667 shares underlying convertible preferred stock and 170,000 shares of common stock underlying common stock warrants were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, because their impact was anti-dilutive.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and loans receivable. The Company maintains its cash in bank and financial institution deposits that at times may exceed federally insured limits. Management has established an allowance of $1,633,380 as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Recent accounting pronouncements that the Company has adopted or that will be required to adopt in the future are summarized below.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The amendments introduce an impairment model that is based on expected credit losses (“ECL”), rather than incurred losses, to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments (ex. loans and held to maturity securities), including certain off-balance sheet financial instruments (ex. commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit that are not unconditionally cancellable). The ECL should consider historical information, current information, and reasonable and supportable forecasts, including estimates of prepayments, over the contractual term. An entity must use judgment in determining the relevant information and estimation methods that are appropriate in its circumstances. Financial instruments with similar risk characteristics may be grouped together when estimating the ECL. The ASU also amends the current available for sale security impairment model for debt securities whereby credit losses relating to available for sale debt securities should be recorded through an allowance for credit losses. For an emerging growth company, the amendments in the update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The amendments will be applied through a modified retrospective approach, resulting in a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the first reporting period in which the guidance is effective. The Company is currently planning for the implementation of this accounting standard. It is too early to assess the impact this guidance, which is not effective for interim periods in 2021, will have on the Company’s financial statements.

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

Critical Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods presented. The Company is required to make judgments and estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the valuation of the allowance for loan losses, loss contingencies, useful life and recoverability of long-lived assets, deferred income tax asset valuations and loss contingencies. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Although, we believe our judgments and estimates are appropriate, actual future results may be different; if different assumptions or conditions were to prevail, the results could be materially different from our reported results.

Loans Receivable, net and Allowance for Losses

The Company records its investments in loans receivable at cost less unamortized costs of issuance and deferred origination fees. Origination fees collected at the time of investment are recorded against the loans receivable and amortized into net interest income over the lives of the related loans. Issuance costs incurred are capitalized along with the initial investment and amortized against net interest income over the lives of the related loans.

When a loan receivable is placed on non-accrual status, the related interest receivable is reversed against interest income of the current period. If a non-accrual loan is returned to accrual status, the accrued interest existing at the date the residential loan is placed on non-accrual status and interest during the non-accrual period are recorded as interest income as of the date the loan no longer meets the non-accrual criteria.

The Company maintains an allowance for loan losses on its investments in real estate loans receivable for estimated credit impairment.  Management’s estimate of losses is based on a number of factors including the types and dollar amounts of loans in the portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, prevailing economic conditions and the underlying collateral securing the loan.  Additions to the allowance are provided through a charge to earnings and are based on an assessment of certain factors, which may indicate estimated losses on the loans.  Actual losses on loans are recorded first as a reduction to the allowance for loan losses.  Generally, subsequent recoveries of amounts previously charged off are recognized as income.

Estimating allowances for loan losses requires significant judgment about the underlying collateral, including liquidation value, condition of the collateral, competency and cooperation of the related borrower and specific legal issues that affect loan collections or taking possession of the property on an individual loan receivable basis.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

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