BUSINESSES
Company Overview
Altitude International Holdings is a people-first, global wellness group comprised of multiple scalable related revenue streams creating a vertically integrated high-performance sports, education, and technology company. Our mission is to redefine and revolutionize athletic preparation and training, while providing relief, opportunity, and wellness to those that need it the most.
Altitude International, Inc.
Since 2017, the Company, through its operating subsidiary, Altitude International, Inc., specializes in creating uniquely engineered, membrane-based designs for simulated altitude training environments. The product line ranges from personal at home use machines to fully integrated environmental rooms and chambers. Through a license agreement with Sporting Edge UK, a brand established in the United Kingdom, the Company intends to continue to expand its technology into the American marketplace, where the appetite for increasing performance in elite athletes, professional sports, equine sports, and universities and colleges is immense.
Industry Operating Environment
We believe the industry operating environment is ready for our products and our focus is climate-controlled rooms. The blended business approach that Altitude has adopted has substantiated our product in the marketplace through education and applied use of our systems and protocols. In the academies’ operations alone, participants attend from 40 nations around the world. Professional athletes and professional teams utilize the facilities from Europe, South America, and Asia.

Recent Development
Altitude is establishing its manufacturing in the United States, taking ownership of our cost to retail structure. Currently, “Made in the USA” carries weight worldwide at the consumer level.
The product designs licensed from Sporting Edge UK are proven and cover a wide range of room sizes. The only requirement is to change from metric to imperial sizes where necessary.
There are three unique elements to the Altitude Systems:
● | Sophisticated Touch Screen control systems capable of integrating the control of simulated altitude, temperature and humidity. |
● | A unique design of Air Separation Unit with only a single active part that provides for ultra-reliable operation and a design life of greater than fifteen years. |
● | Proven training protocols that allow the desired training benefits to be achieved. |
We have included some photos of what our systems look like:
Manufacturing consists primarily of the assembly of components into unique licensed designs.

Competition
Currently, the membrane-based technology is not being well used in the United States. In North America, there exist some companies that provide altitude training masks, but the equipment is on a much smaller scale intended for personal use. This type of equipment employs PSA technology, which has reliability issues and a restricted altitude capacity.
There have been recent climate-controlled chamber successes in therapy and rehab environments. While used in the United States and North America, much of the membrane-based technology reflects continued use on a more personal basis. The impact of COVID-19 stalled most activities for much of 2020 and 2021. However, in recent months, the Company has experienced a renewed interest in the university, college, military, and therapy sectors and professional sports teams.
Marketing and Customers
Our approach with major professional sports franchises has been an emphasis. We plan to market to franchise, college, military and therapy institutions interested in installing climate-controlled chambers in their performance facilities indicate renewed momentum for the 2022 - 2023 seasons. Our outreach utilizes far-reaching relational capital as the point of entry for prospective targets. Our products and services support junior, adult, and professional individuals.
Altitudes second demonstration facility to be installed and used at Club Med Academies will serve as headquarters for ALTD’s R&D center hosting junior, adult, professional individuals and teams on a daily year-round basis.
Intellectual Property
The Company does not own any patents directly but has access to the Sporting Edge UK intellectual property through the License Agreement, by and between the Company and Sporting Edge UK Ltd., Inc. (“Sporting Edge UK”) as discussed below.
Principal Agreements Affecting Our Ordinary Business

Trident Water, LLC dba Altitude Water
Corporate History
Trident Water, LLC (“Altitude Water”) was founded in the summer of 2019, and we believe it is positioned to take a prominent position in the marketplace.
In June 2021, Altitude Water acquired Patent No. 7272947 to protect its intellectual property regarding ozone purification in Atmospheric Water Generators. Prior to that, Altitude Water operated under a licensing agreement.
Nature of Operations
Altitude Water manufactures Atmospheric Water Generators (“AWGs”). They range from smaller residential, light commercial, and heavy-duty military-grade machines. The machines supply up to 12, 100, and 200 gallons of water per day. AWGs produce pure water through the condensation process. The competitive advantage of Altitude Water’s patented ozone purification process is that it keeps the water and the system free from contaminants. The water is then put through filters replenishing the calcium and magnesium minerals to make what we believe is the finest drinking water on the market today. The patented EnviroGuard™ (Ozone Generator) purification process assists the natural water cycle by infusing Ozone into the water produced from the air’s humidity. After approximately 20 minutes, the Ozone (O3) then reverts into oxygen (O2), adding additional oxygen into every glass of water. In the final step, the process adds the minerals calcium and magnesium to raise the pH (7.6 to 8.1 on average) and provides a great taste. Altitude Water’s process is green, sustainable, and lowers the carbon footprint. Through a third-party, our water machines are currently being used by many branches of the United States military (“Military”) as part of the Military’s exploratory program with atmospheric water generation. Other noted industry sectors in need of quality water solutions are targets of Altitude Water such as humanitarian organizations, NGOs, FEMA, and sustainable real estate development.
17 |
Altitude Water has made significant strides with their manufacturing, assembly, and production capabilities. The relationship with our sales arm, RussKapp has proven productive with the military, with multiple sales, including sales to the US Marines, US Army, US Navy and the US Space Force. RussKapp has also made purchases of Altitude machines that are going in regional government facilities.
Altitude Water offers several levels of its AWGs at various price points, enabling it to target a larger variety of potential customers. The largest output machine is functional for large entities and institutions, whereas the smallest output model is suited for a small commercial or residential environment. The variety of products with the same patented process in each of them allows Altitude Water to create a varied customer base and to effectively market to more entities and interested parties.
Industry Operating Environment
AWGs extract water from humid ambient air and render it potable, making it safe for drinking. Altitude Water uses its patented process to distinguish itself from the competition by not only providing potable water but adds the element of providing oxygenated water. Altitude Water can provide the benefits of oxygenated water. It allows for better absorption for the body’s cells based on osmosis through a sustainable product that can make water even in areas where it may not always be readily available. Thus, Altitude Water operates within the pure water generation industry as well as the oxygenated water industry, carving out a unique niche product market for customers.
18 |
Competition
Altitude Water’s competitors include Genaq, Watergen USA, SunToWater Technologies, and Synergy Science.
Marketing and Customers
Altitude Water targets consumers have a need for pure drinking water and do not want to rely on bottled water due to storage problems and environmental issues with the plastic bottles. The market for the smaller Trident 12 model is residential and offices that have the traditional 5-gallon dispenser with bottled water. For the commercial units (T-100 and T-200), the customers need to overcome supply chain and logistical issues to have a reliable source of pure drinking water such as the United States Armed Forces and humanitarian relief organizations. The patented process within the AWGs appeals to forward-thinking, environmentally conscious clients, due to the purity of the water as well as the ability for ozonated water to cleanse bacteria from the tubing that traditional methods such as UV lights and reverse osmosis filtration are unable to address.

SLCS provides a wide variety of services to its corporate customers, including but not limited to general office cleaning, carpet cleaning, window cleaning, and other janitorial protocols. Fogging to prevent and protect against exposure to various bacteria, fungi, and viruses is another SLCS offering. SLCS carries numerous products for sanitizing using an electrostatic fogger to protect offices and their employees for an extended period depending on the client’s needs.
Industry Operating Environment
SLCS operates within the commercial cleaning industry and offers high-end cleaning services. Its current contract with H&R Block stores showcases its ability to navigate a large contract and makes it marketable as a scalable service.

SLCS uses high-quality cleaning and disinfecting products to conduct a thorough and effective service throughout a commercial space. The service values a high attention to detail, evident in its inclusion of fogging in its services to create long-term protection and disinfection on high contact surfaces and offices. SLCS is also evaluating certain air purification systems using ozone to combat the potential COVID virus for its customers.
Competition
SLCS’s competitors include Ace Cleaning Systems and ClarityFresh.
Marketing and Customers
SLCS focuses on customers that would issue larger contracts, such as H&R Block, wherein SLCS is able to clean multiple commercial locations and build a relationship with the customer by showing high-level cleaning performance at each location.

Altitude Wellness LLC
Corporate History
Altitude Wellness LLC (“Altitude Wellness”) was formed in 2021.
Nature of Operations
Altitude Wellness will focus on helping its future members reach their individual health goals by offering various experiences that enhance the way you look and feel. Multiple modalities ranging from altitude chambers, cryo chambers, ozone chamber, red light therapy, IV therapy, infrared sauna, and neuro feedback are just a few of the treatments that will be available. From warm and chilled eucalyptus towels when you arrive to fresh juices and healthy snacks, all is vital to the experience. The highly trained staff will include nurses, dietitians, trainers, therapists, and health specialists. Each will know the patient by name and be familiar with their profile, which will be completed on the app and available to the Experience Specialists upon each check-in. As of December 31, 2021, Altitude Wellness was not operating but anticipates being in operation in 2022.
Industry Operating Environment
One of the largest burdens our competitors carry are their build-out burden costs. To combat this, Altitude Wellness will use medical centers, such as our first location projected for 2022 in Sugar Land, Texas, in the range of 4,000+ square feet with approximately 10 separate offices. This will dramatically reduce costs for build out and execution. For location and start up projections, we used traditional averages of build out and office equipment. The executive team will use their relationships, construction knowledge, design expertise and smart buying power to make sure costs are held to a minimum with an outstanding product for the best pricing on look and all the equipment.
The value of using existing medical offices is that many are available due to the shift in demand for in-house patient contact. Parking is traditionally sufficient, locations are typically excellent, and the power and access for equipment lend itself for a perfect Altitude franchise. Target timing will be 90 days from lease signing to open for business.
Services
Altitude Wellness of the overall business will be done in 3 different revenue streams. 1. Membership Model: 300-400 members paying a monthly fee of $350 per person on average. With a firm commitment to a limited number of members, this will cause a sense of urgency and create a fear of missing out. This membership model and token-based platform is different from any other franchise on the market today. It will allow the franchise owner to know their minimum monthly revenue and budget expenses accordingly. The projections also call out for additional spending of members over and above the monthly membership cost. Corporate and group discounts of 5 or more will also help dramatically in the sales of memberships. 2. Private Pay and Corporate Model: This will include walk in business and daily rental of entire facility to corporations for their staff. 3. Franchise Model: Altitude Wellness will franchise the concept to other locations around the country. A franchise company is currently engaged for proper set up and lead generation. Altitude Wellness franchise fee will be $40,000 plus 5% of gross plus an additional advertising fee. All fees and costs as well as scheduling of equipment will be coordinated through the Altitude App, which will hold the franchisee accountable for proper fees.

Competition
Altitude Wellness has researched competitors in the market such as The Drip Bar, Three Degrees Infrared Light Therapy, Chill Rx Cryotherapy, and Stretch Zone to name a few. Restore Hyper Wellness is the industry leader with similar modalities, and their expansion and growth are impressive. The Restore plan is to have over 500 franchises by 2024. With over $200 billion a year spent in wellness related procedures; this industry is ready for a new leader. Altitude Wellness will be positioned to be the new leader and disrupter to the wellness industry-- shifting how we approach wellness from reactive to proactive.
Marketing and Customers
Altitude Wellness unique membership program allows for flexibility in outreach and awareness. By developing a marketing program focusing on influencers and celebrity types, Altitude will achieve low-cost marketing and target members of like-minded individuals. Each outreach membership will vary between the Silver, Gold and Platinum membership-- based on the success of the personality. Altitude will also have the ability to donate monthly memberships to many local organizations. The cost of donating a $250 membership is already built into our daily expenses. Accordingly, we can donate as many as 10 memberships a month without it affecting the business, some restrictions may apply.
Research has shown that the slowest day of the week is Tuesday. The intent is to utilize the wellness center for “renting” to local businesses for their employees done in blocks of time. Altitude will also donate the center to people in the community such as first responders, schoolteachers, victims of domestic violence and other organizations within the community to help “heal” people who may not have the means and resources to utilize our facility. The costs associated with employee wages and equipment are already built out in the cost analysis.
Marketing and advertising will be done on a very specific target and demographic of the area. Through Instagram and Facebook ads, a local campaign per location will be established. Altitude will also use local advertising, influencers, celebrities as well as chamber lists and relationships with corporations to secure memberships.
Altitude Online Learning, LLC
Altitude Online Learning LLC was recently established in 2021 to support and address the global demand in distance learning. This is a natural extension to our existing brick-and-mortar academic operations. Through our corporation system status, Altitude Online Learning is fully accredited. The economics of an online distance school presents significant potential opportunity. Now students from around the world will have the opportunity to earn an American diploma in their home countries while attending Altitude Online Learning.
Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, during 2020 and continuing in 2021, the Company established policies and protocols to address safety considerations. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to affect the Company’s business, financial condition, liquidity and the Company’s operating results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.
Government Regulation
We are subject to local and international laws and regulations that relate directly or indirectly to our operations. We are also subject to common business and tax rules and regulations pertaining to the operation of our business. However, to our knowledge, there are no laws or regulations specifically directed to our industry and proposed business activities. While general laws about privacy are applicable, we only incorporate publicly available data in our databases.
Employees
We currently have fifty full-time employees and thirteen part-time employees.

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors
As we are a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, we are not required to provide the information under this item; however, we believe this information may be of value to our shareholders for this filing. We reserve the right not to provide risk factors in our future filings. Our primary risk factors and other considerations include:
RISK FACTORS
You should carefully consider the risks described below before investing in our securities. Additional risks not presently known to us or that our management currently deems immaterial also may impair our business operations. If any of the risks described below were to occur, our business, financial condition, operating results, and cash flows could be materially adversely affected. In such an event, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment. In assessing these risks, you should also refer to the other information contained in this prospectus, including our consolidated financial statements and related notes. The risks discussed below include forward-looking statements, and our actual results may differ substantially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements.
Risks Relating to Our Business and Industry
An occurrence of an uncontrollable event such as the COVID-19 pandemic may negatively affect our operations.
The occurrence of an uncontrollable event such as the COVID-19 pandemic may negatively affect our operations. A pandemic typically results in social distancing, travel bans and quarantine, and this may limit access to our facilities, customers, management, support staff and professional advisors. These factors, in turn, may not only impact our operations, financial condition and demand for our goods and services but our overall ability to react timely to mitigate the impact of this event. Also, it may hamper our efforts to comply with our filing obligations with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
All academies depend heavily on student and parent buy-in to our teaching and training styles, methods, and facilities, and a lack of interest could jeopardize our revenue and success model.
We are fully reliant on the trust of students and their families to attend our academies, both Altitude Academies and NMBA, in order to better succeed with their athletic and academic careers. However, we follow a strict training and educational schedule to create success. If potential families and their student athletes do not see the value in our academies and our methods, they may not attend our school and we may suffer enrollment shortages, ultimately impacting our revenues and profitability. While we cater to the highest levels of athletes and have had a history of success with our programming and goals, this is still a possibility and a risk consistent with any specialized schooling program.
Our academies require diligent teachers, faculty, trainers, and coaches in order for our student athletes to succeed, and our inability to retain or hire qualified, top-level staff may impact our ability to be successful.
Altitude Academies and NMBA employ a variety of faculty and staff to keep our facilities running and successful. We pride ourselves on having high quality instructors both in the academic classroom and on the athletic training fields to build our student athletes into high performers in all settings. However, a variety of factors may cause our current staff to leave our academies and pursue other opportunities, which we may or may not have control over. It is also a possibility that we may be unable to attract the most qualified, successful candidates to openings at our academies, which may cause staffing issues and reduce student success. While we do everything in our power to create competitive salaries and benefits offerings, a positive workplace environment, and other perks, this is a risk with any specialized schooling program.
22 |
Our academies are based in Florida, which can experience various severe weather patterns and natural disasters, possibly placing our facilities at risk of damage or destruction.
Each year, Florida faces different types of weather storms and the volatility of each varies. Our academies have been built to sustain this type of weather to ensure minimal amount of damage but given Florida’s geographical location in line of hurricanes and other possible natural disasters, this is a risk unique to our academies. Any damage or destruction of our facilities, including but not limited to training fields and equipment, could create unexpected time and financial expenditures that would impact our revenues and operating results.
The current climate around school safety is of the utmost importance to us, but if we cannot maintain or prevent various safety issues from occurring, this may impact our revenues and success in retaining student athletes.
Our academies and facilities take various precautions to encourage the mental health and safety of all our students and faculty. However, the national climate around school safety is challenging at the current moment. While we do everything in our power to ensure the safety, care, and protection of our students, faculty, and facilities, an incident that impacts this safety may create unexpected impacts on our operations and share prices.
North Miami Beach Academy’s plans for development with the city of North Miami Beach may fall through, and this may jeopardize or reduce our ability to expand our programs and facilities.
Our current plans to develop more facilities and training areas for tennis in coordination with the City of North Miami Beach may fall through, despite our best efforts to ensure that does not happen. Any number of factors could contribute to delays, adjustments, or cancellations in our plans, including but not limited to, zoning issues, permits, lack of interest, or changes in funds. If our plans for development were to face delays, changes, or stops, this may create an impact on our brand reputation and relationships.
The popularity of the sports we offer training in at our academies may vary in popularity and interest among young athletes, which may cause our student retention or enrollment to fluctuate or impact our students’ abilities to earn scholarships.
Our academies train future athletes in tennis, soccer, golf, and volleyball, and we hope to increase our success over time by continuing to develop the best athletes and facilities, furthering our brand reputation. However, the popularity and interest in these particular sports may decrease, and while we do not see this as a particularly strong possibility, it nonetheless could impact our revenues and student retention or acceptance.
If we cannot successfully market our academies, products, and services, our revenue may decrease and impact our business successes.
Our brands rely heavily on positive recognition and successful marketing campaigns. While we employ the best possible teams of staff to take on our marketing efforts and present our products, services, and academies with honesty and positivity, other influences may jeopardize our marketing efforts. This may impact our financial earnings and future solvency.
Our revenues and profitability can fluctuate from period to period and are often difficult to predict due to factors beyond our control.
Our results of operations in any particular period may not be indicative of results to be expected in future periods, and have historically been, and are expected to continue to be, subject to periodic fluctuations arising from a number of factors, including:
● | Introduction and market acceptance of new products and sales trends affecting specific existing products; |
● | Variations in product selling prices and costs and the mix of products sold; |
● | Size and timing of customers’ orders, which, in turn, often depend upon the success of our customers’ businesses or specific products; |
23 |
● | Changes in the market conditions for specialized athletic academic training, water equipment, and cleaning services; |
● | Changes in macroeconomic factors; |
● | Availability of consumer credit; |
● | Timing and availability of products coming from any offshore contract manufacturing suppliers; |
● | Seasonality of markets, which vary from quarter-to-quarter and are influenced by outside factors such as overall consumer confidence and the availability and cost of television advertising time; |
● | Effectiveness of our media and advertising programs; |
● | Restructuring charges; |
● | Goodwill and other intangible asset impairment changes; and |
● | Legal and contract settlement charges. |
These trends and factors could adversely affect our business, operating results, financial position, and cash flows in any particular period.
These trends and factors could adversely affect our business, operating results, financial position, and cash flows in any particular period.
We rely on the protection and uniqueness of our intellectual property, including our patents, to maintain a competitive advantage in the industry, and if we are unable to protect this property, we may suffer various losses.
Our patented process at Altitude Water is critical to maintaining our competitive advantage in marketing for our product. However, if there is a significant development of similar intellectual property or an inability to litigate to protect our own intellectual property, this could significantly deter our competitive advantage. We may suffer losses including the ability to exclusively use and market our intellectual property, financial losses, reputational suffering, and a lack of client renewal.
Some of our operating expenses are more fixed, which could make it difficult to adjust if we suffer revenue shortfalls.
Many of our operating expenses are relatively fixed. We may not be able to adjust our operating expenses or other costs sufficiently to adequately respond to any revenue shortfalls. If we are unable to reduce operating expenses or other costs quickly in response to any declines in revenue, it would negatively impact our operating results, financial condition, and cash flows.
If we cannot anticipate our customer’s preferences or needs, we may lose one or more of our customers, which could negatively impact our revenue and operating results.
Our future success depends on our ability to effectively develop, market, and sell new products that respond to new and evolving consumer preferences. Accordingly, our revenues and operating results may be adversely affected if we are unable to develop or acquire rights to new products that satisfy consumer preferences. In addition, any new products that we market may not generate sufficient revenues to recoup their acquisition, development, production, marketing, selling and other costs.
We may not be able to gain new customers or students at our various enterprises, which could limit our revenue and profitability.
We make every effort to attract families and their young athletes to our academies and to find new potential clients in our other ventures, but this is a not a guarantee that those families and potential clients will choose to do business with us. Our academies require a financial and time investment by students and their families, and our other businesses require a similar financial investment into our products and services. If future people and businesses do not find that they are willing or able to make the required investments into our businesses, this may impact our revenue and operating results and create difficulty expanding or continuing our existing efforts.
24 |
Government regulatory actions could disrupt our marketing and sales efforts.
Various international and U.S. federal, state, and local governmental authorities, including the Federal Trade Commission, the Consumer Product Safety Commission, the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, regulate our products, services, and marketing efforts. Our revenue and profitability could be significantly harmed if any of these authorities commence a regulatory enforcement action that interrupts our marketing efforts, results in a product recall or negative publicity, or requires changes in product design or marketing materials.
Our academies, products, and services may be subject to a competitive market, and we may see fluctuations in our revenues.
Our academies are not the only specialized athletic training and academic program in the country, and this causes us to be in a competitive market to find students and families excited about becoming a part of our programs. Additionally, our water and cleaning services are part of a larger competitive market as it relates to business services and products. If we are unable to use creative marketing and create brand loyalty to our various enterprises, our revenues and operating results may fluctuate from time to time.
We may be subject to periodic litigation, patent proceedings, and other regulatory processes, which may result in unexpected time and financial expenditures.
From time to time, we may be a defendant in lawsuits and regulatory actions relating to our businesses. Due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation and regulatory proceedings, we cannot accurately predict the ultimate outcome of any such proceedings. An unfavorable outcome could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. In addition, any significant litigation in the future, regardless of its merits, could divert management’s attention from our operations and may result in substantial legal costs.
Because we store various confidential customer and business data, a system security breach may affect our business data and create unexpected time and financial expenditures.
We manage and store various proprietary information and sensitive or confidential data relating to our business, including sensitive and personally identifiable information. Breaches of our security measures or the accidental loss, inadvertent disclosure or unapproved dissemination of proprietary information or sensitive or confidential data about us, or our customers, including the potential loss or disclosure of such information or data as a result of fraud, trickery or other forms of deception, could expose us, our customers or the individuals affected to a risk of loss or misuse of this information, result in litigation and potential liability for us, damage our brand and reputation or otherwise harm our business. In addition, the cost and operational consequences of implementing further data protection measures could be significant.
Experienced computer programmers and hackers may be able to penetrate our network security and misappropriate or compromise our confidential information or that of third parties, create system disruptions or cause shutdowns. Computer programmers and hackers also may be able to develop and deploy viruses, worms and other malicious software programs that attack or otherwise exploit any security vulnerabilities of our systems. In addition, sophisticated hardware and operating system software and applications that we procure from third parties may contain defects in design or manufacture, including “bugs” and other problems that could unexpectedly interfere with the operation of the system. The costs to us to eliminate or alleviate cyber or other security problems, bugs, viruses, worms, malicious software programs and security vulnerabilities could be significant, and our efforts to address these problems may not be successful and could result in interruptions, delays, cessation of service and loss of existing or potential customers that may impede our revenue, manufacturing, distribution, or other critical functions.

The effects of the COVID-19 global pandemic are still unknown as it relates to athletics and education, which could have unexpected impacts on our academies.
In March of 2020, we entered what the health organizations of the world labeled a “global pandemic” of the COVID-19 virus. While we are starting to emerge from many of the social distancing measures we put into place to protect our faculty, students, and families, all of the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the world of sports, education, cleaning procedures, and more is unknown. We may have to make costly adjustments to our various business models and operations to remain compliant with any changes to current regulatory policies as they relate to our various enterprises, and this may have an impact on our revenue and operating results.
Altitude Water’s AWGs may experience defects or problems that may result in unsafe water production, creating potential insurance and liability risks.
While we make every effort in our testing process to ensure that our AWGs are functioning properly and will continue to perform as expected for the duration of the life of the product, we cannot guarantee that our products will not ever face complications. This may at times cause the water being produced to be unsafe or not up to the standard and quality we advertise. This may create liability risks for us and may impact our ability to maintain our insurance policy. Our insurance premiums may increase, which may negatively impact our financial goals.
If Altitude Academies cannot maintain its current agreement with Club Med, we may have to move our facilities elsewhere and this may impact financial goals if the lease ends unexpected.
Altitude Academies currently operates on Club Med’s property and its operating agreement is critical in keeping our facilities expenses low. However, the agreement is only in effect for one year with the potential to renew for one-year increments, and both Club Med and CMA must agree to a renewal in writing. If Club Med is dissatisfied for any reason with Altitude Academies and its operations at the end of the agreement term, they may not renew the agreement. This would create large financial expenditures as the academy would have to relocate to a new site and would likely result in negative impacts on operating results. Additionally, it may impact the quality of facilities available to Altitude Academies students and faculty, which could lead to reduced enrollment rates. While Altitude Academies puts extensive effort and resources into maintaining a positive mutual relationship with Club Med for the benefit of renewing the agreement, this is not something that can be guaranteed.
Altitude Water may face production delays, manufacturing problems, or other issues that may result in delivery delays, breach of contract, or negative publicity which may impact our ability to retain customers and effectively market our products.
Altitude Water relies heavily on its manufacturing partners and staff to ensure that all manufacturing, testing, and delivery of products goes smoothly. However, there may be unexpected challenges or delays to this process which could result in delivery or manufacturing issues. With its largest commercial partnerships and contracts, Altitude Water must maintain its end of the agreement to deliver properly functioning AWGs to the client on time, and if delays impact this, the client may have cause for a breach of contract suit. Additionally, large amounts of delays and problems may create negative publicity around Altitude Water that can impact ability to attract and retain customers.
Risks Related to Our Securities
Our certificate of incorporation allows for our board of directors to create new series of preferred stock without further approval by our stockholders, which could have an anti-takeover effect and could adversely affect holders of our common stock.
Our authorized capital includes preferred stock issuable in one or more series. Our board of directors has the authority to issue preferred stock and determine the price, designation, rights, preferences, privileges, restrictions and conditions, including voting and dividend rights, of those shares without any further vote or action by stockholders. The rights of the holders of common stock will be subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of holders of any preferred stock that may be issued in the future. The issuance of additional preferred stock, while providing desirable flexibility in connection with possible financings and acquisitions and other corporate purposes, could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire a majority of the voting power of our outstanding voting securities, which could deprive our holders of common stock of a premium that they might otherwise realize in connection with a proposed acquisition of our company.
Efforts to comply with the applicable provisions of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act will involve significant expenditures, and non-compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act may adversely affect us and the market price of our common stock.
Under current SEC rules, we have been required to report on our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, or Section 404, and related rules and regulations of the SEC. We will be required to review on an annual basis our internal control over financial reporting, and on a quarterly and annual basis to evaluate and disclose changes in our internal control over financial reporting. This process may result in a diversion of management’s time and attention and may involve significant expenditures. We have not maintained internal control over financial reporting in a manner that meets the standards of publicly traded companies required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The rules governing the standards that must be met for our evaluation management to assess our internal control over financial reporting are complex and require significant documentation, testing and possible remediation. We expect to begin the process of reviewing, documenting, and testing our internal control over financial reporting after completion of this offering. We might encounter problems or delays in completing the implementation of any changes necessary to make a favorable assessment of our internal control over financial reporting. If we cannot favorably assess the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, investors could lose confidence in our financial information and the price of our common stock could decline.
If securities or industry analysts do not publish or cease publishing research or reports about us, or publish inaccurate or unfavorable reports about, our business or our market, or if they change their recommendations regarding our stock adversely, our stock price and trading volume could decline.
The trading market for our common stock, to some extent, will be influenced by the research and reports that industry or securities analysts may publish about us, our business, our market or our competitors.
We do not have any control over these analysts.
Our internal control over financial reporting does not currently meet the standards required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and failure to achieve and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act could have a material adverse effect on our business and stock price.

Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans
On February 13, 2018, the Company’s shareholders and Board of Directors approved the 2017 Incentive Stock Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan provides for the grant of two types of options: (1) Incentive Stock Options, which are options that meet the requirements of Section 422 of the Code, and (2) Non-statutory Options. Shareholder approval will make available a total of 3,000,000 shares of the Company’s authorized but unissued Common Stock for purchase upon exercise of options granted under the 2017 Incentive Stock Plan. The term of the 2017 Incentive Stock Plan is ten years, subject to earlier termination by the Board.
Incentive Stock Options may be granted to employees of the Company or a related corporation. Non-Qualified Stock Options may be granted to employees of the Company, a related corporation, or affiliated companies. In any fiscal year, no employee may receive options to purchase more than $100,000 worth of shares of Common Stock and no option may be granted with an exercise price less than the fair market value measured on the date of the grant.
The 2017 Incentive Stock Plan will be administered by Board of Directors. The Board will have authority to construe, amend or terminate the 2017 Incentive Stock Plan. A written agreement will evidence each option and determine whether the option is an Incentive Stock Option or Non-Qualified Stock Option.
Options will expire no longer than 10 years from the date of grant; provided that no Incentive Stock Option granted to a greater-than-10% shareholder will expire later than 5 years from the date of grant. Vested options generally will terminate upon the first to occur of: (1) expiration of the option; (2) three months following the optionee’s termination of employment, other than as a result of death or disability; or (3) six months following the optionee’s death or cessation of employment by reason of disability.
Options granted under the 2017 Incentive Stock Plan will be no less than twenty percent (20%) of the shares covered thereby shall become exercisable annually unless the Board determines otherwise. The Committee may accelerate vesting. Upon a change in control, all options outstanding at the date thereof will become fully vested and exercisable. The purchase price of option shares must be paid by wire transfer, except to the extent another method is permitted by the Board.
There are currently no stock options currently issued and outstanding under the 2017 Plan, as all 250,000 remaining stock options issued and outstanding were exercised on February 8, 2021.

ITEM 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The statements contained in the following MD&A and elsewhere throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-K, including any documents incorporated by reference, that are not historical facts, including statements about our beliefs and expectations, are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include statements preceded by, followed by or that include the words “may,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “estimate,” “target,” “project,” “intend” and similar words or expressions. In addition, any statements that refer to expectations, projections, or other characterizations of future events or circumstances are forward-looking statements.
These forward-looking statements, which reflect our management’s beliefs, objectives, and expectations as of the date hereof, are based on the best judgement of our management. All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made. Such forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions relating to factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in such statements, including, without limitation, the following: economic, social and political conditions, global economic downturns resulting from extraordinary events such as the COVID-19 pandemic and other securities industry risks; interest rate risks; liquidity risks; credit risk with clients and counterparties; risk of liability for errors in clearing functions; systemic risk; systems failures, delays and capacity constraints; network security risks; competition; reliance on external service providers; new laws and regulations affecting our business; net capital requirements; extensive regulation, regulatory uncertainties and legal matters; failure to maintain relationships with employees, customers, business partners or governmental entities; the inability to achieve synergies or to implement integration plans and other consequences associated with risks and uncertainties detailed in our filings with the SEC, including our most recent filings on Forms 10-K and 10-Q.
We caution that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive, and new factors may emerge, or changes to the foregoing factors may occur, that could impact our business. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise these statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except to the extent required by the federal securities laws.
Certain information contained in this discussion and elsewhere in this report may include “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and is subject to the safe harbor created by that act. The safe harbor created by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act will not apply to certain “forward looking statements” because we issued “penny stock” (as defined in Section 3(a)(51) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 3(a)(51-1) under the Exchange Act) during the three year period preceding the date(s) on which those forward looking statements were first made, except to the extent otherwise specifically provided by rule, regulation or order of the Securities and Exchange Commission. We caution readers that certain important factors may affect our actual results and could cause such results to differ materially from any forward-looking statements which may be deemed to have been made in this Report or which are otherwise made by or on our behalf. For this purpose, any statements contained in this report that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “explore,” “consider,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “could,” “estimate,” “plan,” or “propose” or the negative variations of those words or comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Factors that may affect our results include, but are not limited to, the risks and uncertainties associated with:
● | Our ability to raise capital necessary to sustain our anticipated operations and implement our business plan, | |
● | Our ability to implement our business plan, | |
● | Our ability to generate sufficient cash to survive, | |
● | The degree and nature of our competition, | |
● | The lack of diversification of our business plan, | |
● | The general volatility of the capital markets and the establishment of a market for our shares, and | |
● | Disruption in the economic and financial conditions primarily from the impact of past terrorist attacks in the United States, threats of future attacks, police, and military activities overseas and other disruptive worldwide political and economic events and environmental weather conditions. |
29 |
We are also subject to other risks detailed from time to time in our other filings with Securities and Exchange Commission and elsewhere in this report. Any one or more of these uncertainties, risks and other influences could materially affect our results of operations and whether forward-looking statements made by us ultimately prove to be accurate. Our actual results, performance and achievements could differ materially from those expressed or implied in these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether from new information, future events or otherwise.

No assurances can be given that any of these plans will come to fruition or that if implemented that they will necessarily yield positive results.
Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, during 2020 and continuing in 2021, the Company established policies and protocols to address safety considerations. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will continue to affect the Company’s business, financial condition, liquidity, and the Company’s operating results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.
Off-balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any 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 are material to investors.
Results of Operations
For the year ended December 31, 2021 compared to the period ended December 31, 2020
Revenues
We had $6,595,867 and $5,524,410 of revenue for the period ended December 31, 2021, and 2020, respectively. The increase in revenue is primarily due to the effects of COVID-19 in 2020 and in 2021, operations returning to a near pre-COVID-19 level.
Direct Costs of Revenue
Direct costs of revenue for the period ended December 31, 2021, and 2020 were $2,862,941 and $2,217,974, respectively.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses for the period ended December 31, 2021, and 2020 were $6,154,928 and $3,893,455, respectively. The increase in expenses for 2021 compared to 2020 were comprised primarily of stock-based compensation of $657,947 compared to $0, respectively, the increase in salary and related expenses, $2,396,915 compared to $1,478,414, respectively, and the increase in rent expenses, $648,080 compared to $98,209, respectively. Rent expenses were affected by COVID-19 in 2020 and a new contract in 2021 for additional leased facilities.
Other Income (Expenses)
Other income for the period ended December 31, 2021, and 2020 were $580,385 and $461,721, respectively. For the periods ending 2021 and 2020, the Company recognized gains on settlement of debt of $53,008 and $0, respectively, and gain on the forgiveness of the PPP loans, $614,972 and $507,207, respectively.
Net Loss
Net loss for the period ended December 31, 2021, and 2020 was $1,841,617 and $105,287, respectively.
31 |
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We had a cash balance of $423,165 and negative working capital of $1,117,979 at December 31, 2021.
The Company’s anticipated capital requirements for the next 12 months will consist of expenses of being a public company and general and administrative expenses all of which we currently estimate will cost $325,000, excluding revenue related expenses and salaries. In the event there are unanticipated expenses and we need additional funds, we may seek to raise additional funding that we require in the form of equity financing from the sale of our common stock. However, we cannot provide investors with any assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient funding from the sale of our common stock to fund such additional expenses. We currently do not have any agreements, arrangements or understandings with any person or entity to obtain funds through bank loans, lines of credit or any other sources.
Going Concern
Several conditions and events cast substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. On a consolidated basis, the Company has incurred significant operating losses since inception. For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company had a net loss of $1,841,617. As of December 31, 2021, we had a working capital deficit of $1,117,979 and an accumulated deficit of $2,917,881.
Sources and Uses of Cash
Operating activities during the period ended December 31, 2021 used $1,690,239 of net cash. Net cash provided by investing activities was $2,155 for the period ended December 31, 2021. Net cash provided by financing activities of $1,977,246 was received from the issuance of common stock and shareholder advances during the period ended December 31, 2021. Operating activities during the period ended December 31, 2020 used $898,790 of net cash. Net cash used in investing activities was $11,667 for the period ended December 31, 2020. Net cash provided by financing activities of $794,185 was received from the issuance of common stock and shareholder advances during the period ended December 31, 2020.
In 2020, the Company was impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and in 2021, the Company was going back to a near pre-COVID-19 level.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues, or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
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 estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates in the accompanying financial statements include the amortization period for intangible assets, valuation and impairment valuation of intangible assets, valuation of share-based payments.
Changes in Accounting Principles. No significant changes in accounting principles were adopted during fiscal 2020 and 2019.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. The Company accounts for long-lived assets in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ASC 360-10, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” This statement requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.
32 |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements. The Company measures their financial assets and liabilities in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. For certain of our financial instruments, including cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses and short-term loans the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short maturities.
We have adopted accounting guidance for financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. The adoption did not have a material impact on our results of operations, financial position, or liquidity. This standard defines fair value, provides guidance for measuring fair value and requires certain disclosures. This standard does not require any new fair value measurements, but rather applies to all other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. This guidance does not apply to measurements related to share-based payments. This guidance discusses valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow), and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost). The guidance utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels:
Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore developed using estimates and assumptions developed by us, which reflect those that a market participant would use.
Revenue Recognition. Our sales are generated from three revenue streams: 1) contracts with customers for the design, development, manufacture, and installation of simulated altitude athletic equipment, 2) sports training and academic tuition, and 3) water filtration systems. For the simulated athletic equipment and the water filtration systems, we provide our products under fixed-price contracts. Under fixed-price contracts, we agree to perform the specified work for a pre-determined price. To the extent our actual costs vary from the estimates upon which the price was negotiated, we will generate more or less profit or could incur a loss.
We account for a contract after it has been approved by all parties to the arrangement, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable.
We evaluate the products or services promised in each contract at inception to determine whether the contract should be accounted for as having one or more performance obligations. The products and services in our contracts are typically not distinct from one another due to their complex relationships, customization, and the significant contract management functions required to perform under the contract. Accordingly, our contracts are typically accounted for as one performance obligation, except for the simulated altitude athletic equipment whereas there is a service obligation over a period of time.
We determine the transaction price for each contract based on the consideration we expect to receive for the products or services being provided under the contract.
In regard to the simulated altitude athletic equipment and the water filtration systems, we recognize revenue as performance obligations are satisfied and the customer obtains control of the products and services. In determining when performance obligations are satisfied, we consider factors such as contract terms, payment terms and whether there is an alternative future use of the product or service. Substantially all of our revenue is recognized over time as we perform under the contract because if our customer were to terminate the contract for reasons other than our non-performance, we would have the right to recover damages which would include, among other potential damages, the right to payment for our work performed to date plus a reasonable profit to deliver products or services that do not have an alternative use to us.
In regard to the sports training and academics tuition revenue recognition policy, the tuition is recognized over the course of the training period which is typically a semester. In determining when performance obligations are satisfied, we consider factors as to actual attendance at the academy. We would have the right to recover damages which would include, among other potential damages, the right to payment for our work performed to date.
Stock-Based Compensation. The Company accounts for stock-based instruments issued to employees in accordance with ASC Topic 718. ASC Topic 718 requires companies to recognize in the statement of operations the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity-based compensation issued to employees. The value of the portion of an award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense over the requisite service periods using the straight-line attribution method.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts to ensure trade receivable are not overstated due to non-collectability. The Company’s allowance is based on a variety of factors, including age of the receivable, significant one-time events, historical experience, and other risk considerations. The Company had an allowance at December 31, 2021 and 2020 of $205,455 and $0, respectively. The Company had bad debt expense of $205,455 and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2021, and 2020, respectively.
Inflation
In the opinion of management, inflation has not had a material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of its operations.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Altitude International Holdings, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Altitude International Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2021 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity (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 consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021, and the results of its consolidated operations and its consolidated cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Explanatory Paragraph – Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations since inception and has a working capital deficiency both of which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described 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 the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

INTERNATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF ACCOUNTANTS AND AUDITORS

F-1 |
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 include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Goodwill Impairment Assessment
Critical Audit Matter Description
As described in Notes 1 and 5 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company tests goodwill for impairment annually at the reporting unit level, or more frequently, if events or circumstances indicate it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. Reporting units are tested for impairment by comparing the estimated fair value of each reporting unit with its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, an impairment loss is recorded based on the difference between the fair value and carrying amount, not to exceed the associated carrying amount of goodwill. The Company’s annual impairment test occurred on December 31, 2021.
We identified the evaluation of the impairment analysis for goodwill as a critical audit matter because of the significant estimates and assumptions management used in determining the fair value of the reporting unit which is based on market indicators. Performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of these estimates and assumptions required a high degree of auditor judgment and an increased extent of effort.
How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit
Our audit procedures related to the following:
- | Testing management’s process for developing the fair value estimate. |
- | Evaluating the market indicators used by management in developing their fair value estimate. |
- | Testing the completeness and accuracy of underlying data used in the fair value estimate. |

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the shareholders and the board of directors of Altitude International Holdings, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Altitude International Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2020, the related consolidated statement of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years 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, 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Substantial Doubt about the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2021 and 2020
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS
Company Background
Altitude International Holdings, Inc. (f/k/a Altitude International, Inc., the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or “Altitude-NY”), was incorporated in the State of New York on July 13, 1994 as “Titan Computer Services, Inc.” On August 21, 2020, the Company filed with the State of New York to change the name from Altitude International, Inc. to Altitude International Holdings, Inc.
On June 27, 2017, the Company successfully closed a Share Exchange transaction (the “Share Exchange”) with the shareholders of Altitude International, Inc. (“Altitude”), a Wisconsin corporation. Altitude was incorporated on May 18, 2017, under the laws of the state of Wisconsin and has been operating as a wholly owned subsidiary of Altitude-NY since the Share Exchange. Altitude operates through Northern, Central, and South America sales to execute the current business plan of athletic training industry, specifically altitude training. Our objective is to be recognized as one of the upper tier specialty altitude training equipment providers in the Americas.
On April 24, 2020, the Company formed a wholly owned subsidiary in Wisconsin called “Altitude Sports Management Corp.,” which has no activity to date.
On July 6, 2021, Altitude International Holdings, Inc. (“Altitude” or the “Company”) entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Breunich Holdings, Inc., a Delaware entity (“BHI”). BHI is a holding company with seven operating LLCs, including CMA Soccer, LLC, ITA-USA Enterprise LLC, Trident Water LLC, North Miami Beach Academy LLC, NVL Volleyball Academy LLC, Six Log Cleaning and Sanitizing LLC, and Altitude Wellness LLC.
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company agreed to issue shares of its common stock to the shareholders of BHI in exchange for % ownership of BHI. The Company also agreed to issue shares of its Series A preferred stock to Gregory Breunich as part of the agreement.
Following the Agreement, BHI will be a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, with each of its subsidiaries operating as wholly owned subsidiaries.
At the Closing of the Share Exchange Agreement on July 23, 2021, Altitude acquired % ownership of BHI. as a wholly owned subsidiary and its operating companies: CMA Soccer, LLC, ITA-USA Enterprise LLC, Trident Water LLC, North Miami Beach Academy LLC, NVL Volleyball Academy LLC, Six Log Cleaning and Sanitizing LLC, and Altitude Wellness LLC. Certain subsidiaries have filed for dba’s to reflect the new corporate structure and the Altitude brand. For financial reporting purposes, the acquisition of BHI and the change of control in connection with the acquisition represented a “reverse merger” and BHI is deemed to be the accounting acquirer in the transaction. BHI is the acquirer for financial reporting purposes, and the Company (Altitude International Holdings, Inc.) is the acquired company. Consequently, the assets and liabilities and the operations that are reflected in the historical financial statements prior to the acquisition are those of BHI. See Note 3.
On November 5, 2021, the Company formed Altitude Online Learning LLC, a Florida limited liability company. As of December 31, 2021, this entity had no activity.
Nature of Operations
Altitude International Holdings, Inc. is a multi-faceted organization focused on integrating advanced training and hydration technology with specialized sports training.
Since 2017, Altitude has specialized in creating properly engineered, membrane-based designs for simulated altitude training equipment. The product line ranges from personal at home use machines to fully integrated environmental rooms and chambers and has been used at a university and an NFL team. An NBA team has placed an order.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of presentation
The Company follows the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and has a year-end of December 31.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Altitude. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation. The consolidated financial statements included herein, presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and stated in United States dollars, have been prepared by the Company, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
ITA-USA Enterprise LLC, doing business as Club Med Academies and as Altitude Academies, specializes in training and education of young aspiring student-athletes from around the world, providing a pathway from middle school to college to the professional ranks. The Company has no direct relationship with Club Med. ITA’s proprietary educational model currently focuses on sports and academics. The business model is scalable to other disciplines, i.e., the arts and science sectors. It is a tuition-based business hosting boarding and non-boarding students.
CMA Soccer LLC, doing business as Altitude Soccer, the soccer division of Club Med Academies, hosts student-athletes from multiple nations worldwide like all other Club Med Academy sports. CMAS utilizes highly specialized training methodologies blending all of the critical elements required to build an elite-level player. Those who attend participate in a 10 hour per day regimen of soccer and academics. CMAS is a college and professional bound program placing its graduates in colleges throughout the United States and even some in the professional ranks throughout Europe, South America, and the USA.
NVL Academy LLC, doing business as Altitude Volleyball, is the beach volleyball and indoor volleyball tuition-based operations. Most of the athletes, except for a few individuals, come from the USA. For the most part, Volleyball in the United States is a women’s sport. NVL operates and functions like all other academy sports.
Trident Water LLC manufactures Atmospheric Water Generators (“AWG’s”). They range from smaller residential, light commercial, and heavy-duty military-grade machines. The machines supply 12, 100, to 200 gallons per day. Trident’s patented purification process produces what management believes is the purest of water that is then put through filters replenishing the calcium and magnesium minerals to make the finest drinking water on the market today.
North Miami Beach Academy LLC, a local park operation with the City of North Miami Beach, provides junior, adult, and family programming for the city residents. In addition to the local park deliverables, NMBA operates a non-boarding tennis and academic academy.
Six Log Cleaning & Sanitizing, LLC provides a wide variety of services to its corporate customers, including but not limited to: general office cleaning, carpet cleaning, window cleaning, and other janitorial protocols. Fogging to prevent and protect against exposure to various bacteria, fungi, and viruses is another Six Log offering.
Altitude International, Inc. manufactures air separation systems and chambers to regulate oxygen, carbon dioxide, humidity and temperature levels in Altitude’s hypoxic chamber training environments. Altitude’s chambers simulate altitudes from 0-39,000 feet, ideal for athletic training. Altitude’s chambers are currently utilized by the National Football League (“NFL,” the Miami Dolphins) and one university (Tulane University) sports teams to train and develop their athletes. An Altitude chamber will be installed for a National Basketball Association (“NBA,” Orlando Magic) shortly.

Altitude Wellness LLC focuses on helping our members reach their individual health goals by offering various experiences that enhance the way you look and feel. Multiple modalities ranging from altitude chambers, cryo chambers, ozone chamber, red light therapy, IV therapy, infrared sauna, and neuro feedback are just a few of the treatments that will be available. The Altitude Wellness Experience will be a combination of a hundred little things that make each member feel special. From warm and chilled eucalyptus towels when you arrive to fresh juices and healthy snacks, all is vital to the experience. The highly trained staff will include nurses, dietitians, trainers, therapists, and health specialists. Each will know the patient by name and be familiar with their profile, which will be completed on the app and available to the Experience Specialists upon each check-in. As of December 31, 2021, Altitude Wellness is not operating.
Altitude Online Learning LLC was recently established in 2021 to support and address the global demand in distance learning. This is a natural extension to our existing brick-and-mortar academic operations. Through our corporation system status, Altitude Online Learning is fully accredited. The economics of an online distance school presents significant potential opportunity. Now students from around the world will have the opportunity to earn an American diploma in their home countries while attending Altitude Online Learning.
Altitude Sports Management Corp. has not been defined for its use as of December 31, 2021.
All intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
Going Concern and Liquidity
We have incurred recurring losses since inception and expect to continue to incur losses as a result of legal and professional fees and our corporate general and administrative expenses. On December 31, 2021, we had $423,165 in cash. Our net losses incurred for the year ended December 31, 2021 were $1,841,617 and working capital deficit was $1,117,979 at December 31, 2021. As a result, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. In the event that we are unable to generate sufficient cash from our operating activities or raise additional funds, we may be required to delay, reduce or severely curtail our operations or otherwise impede our on-going business efforts, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, financial condition and long-term prospects. The Company expects to seek to obtain additional funding through increased revenues and future financings. There can be no assurance as to the availability or terms upon which such financing and capital might be available. The accompany financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continues as a going concern.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash is comprised of cash balances. Cash is held at major financial institutions and is subject to credit risk to the extent that those balances exceed applicable Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) of $250,000. The Company had material balances in excess of the insured limits as of December 31, 2021, and 2020 of approximately $173,000 and $0, respectively.
F-10 |
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable for tuition is recorded by the Company. As of December 31, 2021, and 2020, the balances were $91,520 and $269,962, net of allowances. There were allowances for doubtful accounts of $205,455 and $0 at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The credit terms provided are as follows:
1. | Altitude Academies – The tuition is paid typically in two installments but, on a case-by-case basis, modifications do occur. |
2. | Altitude Water – The normal credit terms is 50% down with final payment upon delivery. |
3. | Altitude Chambers – The normal credit terms is 50% down with progress payments until final payment upon delivery. |
Bad debt expense is determined based on the aging of accounts receivable and subsequent collections. Typically, receivables aged 60 days, or more is reviewed for determination. Receivables over 90 days, unless payment terms with some payments made to date, are reserved as additional allowance for doubtful accounts.
Fixed Assets
Fixed assets are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Expenditures that extend the life, increase the capacity, or improve the efficiency of property and equipment are capitalized, while expenditures for repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is recognized using the straight-line method over the following approximate useful lives:
Computers, software, and office equipment | 1 – 6 years |
Machinery and equipment | 3 – 5 years |
Leasehold improvements | Lesser of lease term or estimated useful life |
Operating / shop equipment | 4 – 7 years |
Transportation equipment | 5 – 6 years |
Leases
In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”) as codified in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 842 (“ASC 842”). ASU 2016-02, ASC 842, and additional issued guidance are intended to improve financial reporting of leasing transactions by requiring organizations that lease assets to recognize assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by leases that extend more than twelve months. As a result of the adoption of the new lease accounting guidance using the effective date transition method, on January 1, 2019, the Company did not have any lease obligations that extended more than twelve months except for two warehouse leases for Trident Water, which were thirteen months.
We include options to extend or terminate the lease in the lease term for accounting considerations, when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Our leases have remaining lease terms of less than 1 year. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. We do not recognize leases with an initial term of twelve months or less on the balance sheet and instead recognize the related lease payments as expense in the consolidated statements of income on a straight-line basis over the lease term. We account for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for all asset classes. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
Inventory and Direct Costs of Revenue
The inventory is comprised of Atmospheric Water Generators (“AWG’s”) at Trident and chamber related parts at Altitude International and are valued at the lower of cost or market. As of December 31, 2021, and 2020, the inventory was valued at $161,235 and $50,536, respectively.
Inventory is comprised of:
Finished Goods | $ | 33,000 | ||
Parts | $ | 128,235 | ||
Total | $ | 161,235 |
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company’s long-lived assets and other assets (consisting of property and equipment) are reviewed for impairment in accordance with the guidance of the FASB ASC Topic 360-10, Property, Plant, and Equipment. Long lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the undiscounted future net cash flows expected to be generated by that asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future undiscounted cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset.
Revenue Recognition
Our sales are generated from three revenue streams: 1) contracts with customers for the design, development, manufacture, and installation of simulated altitude athletic equipment, 2) sports training and academic tuition, and 3) water filtration systems. For the simulated athletic equipment and the water filtration systems, we provide our products under fixed-price contracts. Under fixed-price contracts, we agree to perform the specified work for a pre-determined price. To the extent our actual costs vary from the estimates upon which the price was negotiated, we will generate more or less profit or could incur a loss.
F-11 |
We account for a contract after it has been approved by all parties to the arrangement, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable.
We evaluate the products or services promised in each contract at inception to determine whether the contract should be accounted for as having one or more performance obligations. The products and services in our contracts are typically not distinct from one another due to their complex relationships, customization, and the significant contract management functions required to perform under the contract. Accordingly, our contracts are typically accounted for as one performance obligation, except for the simulated altitude athletic equipment whereas there is a service obligation over a period of time.
We determine the transaction price for each contract based on the consideration we expect to receive for the products or services being provided under the contract.
In regard to the simulated altitude athletic equipment and the water filtration systems, we recognize revenue as performance obligations are satisfied and the customer obtains control of the products and services. In determining when performance obligations are satisfied, we consider factors such as contract terms, payment terms and whether there is an alternative future use of the product or service. Substantially all of our revenue is recognized over time as we perform under the contract because if our customer were to terminate the contract for reasons other than our non-performance, we would have the right to recover damages which would include, among other potential damages, the right to payment for our work performed to date plus a reasonable profit to deliver products or services that do not have an alternative use to us.
In regard to the sports training and academics tuition revenue recognition policy, the tuition is recognized over the course of the training period which is typically a semester. In determining when performance obligations are satisfied, we consider factors as to actual attendance at the academy.
Deferred Revenue
Our payment terms generally require a substantial initial deposit to confirm a reservation and tuition for the school year or training period. Historically, our deferred revenue balances are comprised solely of customer deposit balances and changes from period to period due to the seasonal nature of billings and cash collections, the amount of students in each program and the recognition of revenue. A deposit made to the Company for tuition is contractually non-refundable. As of December 31, 2021, and 2020, deferred revenue amounted to $1,388,126 and $1,378,502, respectively.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based instruments issued to employees in accordance with ASC Topic 718. ASC Topic 718 requires companies to recognize in the statement of operations the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity-based compensation issued to employees. The value of the portion of an award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense over the requisite service periods using the straight-line attribution method.
F-12 |
Non-controlling interest
Non-controlling interest represents third-party ownership in the net assets and partnership interests in all of our consolidated subsidiaries. For financial reporting purposes, the assets and liabilities of our majority-owned subsidiary consolidated with those of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries, with any third-party investor’s interest shown as non-controlling interest.
For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company had $20,011 related to non-controlling interest. In January 2021, BHI was formed and became the parent company of ITA, where the non-controlling interest parties were. BHI issued the non-controlling interest parties stock in BHI which was exchanged for common stock of ALTD at the time of the transaction between BHI and ALTD. The common stock of ALTD given to the former non-controlling interest parties was from the stock issued to BHI in the transaction.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The book values of cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate their respective fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair value hierarchy under GAAP distinguishes between assumptions based on market data (observable inputs) and an entity’s own assumptions (unobservable inputs).
The hierarchy consists of three levels
● | Level one — Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; | |
● | Level two — Inputs other than level one inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable; and | |
● | Level three — Unobservable inputs developed using estimates and assumptions, which are developed by the reporting entity and reflect those assumptions that a market participant would use. |
Determining which category an asset or liability falls within the hierarchy requires significant judgment. We evaluate our hierarchy disclosures each quarter.
Net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period as defined by Financial Accounting Standards, ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per Share.” Basic earnings per common share (“EPS”) calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per common share calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding. The Company does not have any dilutive shares of common stock as of December 31, 2021, or 2020.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and loss carryforwards and their respective tax bases.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income (loss) in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.
The effect of a change in tax rules on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in operations in the year of change. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is “more likely-than-not” that a deferred tax asset will not be realized.
Tax benefits of uncertain tax positions are recognized only if it is more likely than not that the Company will be able to sustain a position taken on an income tax return. The Company has no liability for uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2021. Interest and penalties in any, related to unrecognized tax benefits would be recognized as interest expense. The Company does not have any accrued interest or penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits, nor was any significant interest expense recognized during the year ended December 31, 2021.
Contingencies
Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company’s management and its legal counsel assess such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company’s legal counsel evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.
F-13 |
If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable, but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material, would be disclosed.
Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the nature of the guarantee would be disclosed.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
The Company accounts for intangible assets in accordance with the authoritative guidance issued by the FASB. Intangibles are valued at their fair value and are amortized taking into account the character of the acquired intangible asset and the expected period of benefit. The Company evaluates intangible assets for impairment, at a minimum, on an annual basis and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable from its estimated undiscounted future cash flows. Recoverability of intangible assets is measured by comparing their net book value to the related projected undiscounted cash flows from these assets, considering a number of factors, including past operating results, budgets, economic projections, market trends, and product development cycles. If the net book value of the asset exceeds the related undiscounted cash flows, the asset is considered impaired, and a second test is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss. The Company tests its goodwill using a market-based approach to determine the estimated fair value of the reporting unit as to which the goodwill has been allocated. As of December 31, 2021, based on the assessment of Management, the Company determined that goodwill associated with the share exchange in which the Company acquired BHI amounting to $29,493,398. The Company will evaluate goodwill annually for any impairment.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt with Conversion and Other Options, which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments. The new guidance eliminates two of the three models in ASC 470-20 that require separating embedded conversion features from convertible instruments. The guidance also addresses how convertible instruments are accounted for in the diluted earnings per share calculation. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2020-06 on its consolidated financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards: Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.
NOTE 3 – REVERSE MERGER
Acquisition of Breunich Holdings, Inc.
On July 6, 2021, Altitude International Holdings, Inc. (“Altitude”) entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”) with BHI, a Delaware entity. The Agreement closed on July 23, 2021. BHI is a holding company with seven operating LLCs, including CMAS, ITA, Trident, NMBA, NVL, Six Log, and Altitude Wellness. These entities have since been rebranded with “Altitude”-specific names.
Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company issued shares of its common stock to the shareholders of BHI in exchange for % ownership of BHI (the “Share Compensation”). The Company’s common stock is not historically traded at significant volume which has caused significant fluctuations in the price per share. For the initial valuation, the stock was valued at $per share per the closing price on July 22, 2021, or $97,971,606. The Company performed a valuation of the BHI acquisition, and the value was determined to be $29,493,398 based on the fair value of BHI at the acquisition date. The goodwill is attributable to common synergies, the workforce.

Gregory Breunich, a primary owner and CEO of BHI, was appointed as CEO, CFO and Director of the Company in January 2021 as the two companies worked to finalize the Agreement.

Accounting Treatment of the Merger
For financial reporting purposes, the Share Exchange represented a “reverse merger” and BHI was deemed to be the accounting acquirer in the transaction. The Share Exchange has been accounted for as a reverse-merger.
Breunich Holdings, Inc. is deemed to be the acquirer for financial reporting purposes, and Altitude International Holdings, Inc. is treated as the acquired company. Consequently, the assets and liabilities and the operations that are reflected in the historical financial statements prior to the Share Exchange are those of BHI and are recorded at the historical cost basis of BHI, and the financial statements after completion of the Share Exchange will include the assets and liabilities of ALTD and BHI, and the historical operations of BHI and ALTD from the acquisition date forward.
Goodwill is not deductible for income tax purposes.

NOTE 10 – INCOME TAXES
As of December 31, 2021, the Company has net operating loss carry forwards of $254,336 that $0 may be available to reduce future years’ taxable income through 2041. In 2020, there were no tax impacts as Breunich Holdings, Inc. was taxed as an limited liability company. The Company’s net operating loss carry forwards may be subject to annual limitations, which could reduce or defer the utilization of the losses as a result of an ownership change as defined in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code.
The Company’s tax expense differs from the “expected” tax expense for Federal income tax purposes (computed by applying the United States Federal tax rate of 21% to loss before taxes for fiscal year 2021 and 2020), as follows:
December 31, | December 31, | |||||||
2021 | 2020 | |||||||
Tax expense (benefit) at the statutory rate | $ | (205,425 | ) | $ | (66,230 | ) | ||
State income taxes, net of federal income tax benefit | (48,911 | ) | (15,769 | ) | ||||
Change in valuation allowance | 254,336 | 81,999 | ||||||
Total | $ | $ |
The tax effects of the temporary differences between reportable financial statement income and taxable income are recognized as deferred tax assets and liabilities.
The tax years 2021 and 2020 remains to examination by federal agencies and other jurisdictions in which it operates.
The tax effect of significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities at December 31, 2021 and 2020, are as follows:
December 31, | December 31, | |||||||
2021 | 2020 | |||||||
Deferred tax assets: | ||||||||
Net operating loss carryforward | $ | 254,336 | $ | 247,032 | ||||
Timing differences | - | - | ||||||
Total gross deferred tax assets | 254,336 | 247,032 | ||||||
Less: Deferred tax asset valuation allowance | (254,336 | ) | (247,032 | ) | ||||
Total net deferred taxes | $ | $ |
In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment.
Because of the historical earnings history of the Company, the net deferred tax assets for 2021 and 2020 were fully offset by a 100% valuation allowance. The valuation allowance for the remaining net deferred tax assets was $254,336 and $as of December 31, 2021, and 2020, respectively. Due to the transaction between the Company and BHI (see Note 3), which resulted in a change of control, net operating loss carryforwards prior to the transaction may not be usable for the future.

ITEM 9. Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
The Company dismissed BF Borgers CPA, PC as its independent registered public accounting firm, effective as of January 14, 2022. On that same day, the Company engaged Turner, Stone & Company, LLP as its independent registered public accounting firm for the year ended December 31, 2021.
ITEM 9A. Controls and Procedures
Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act were not effective as of December 31, 2021 to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, and summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and our disclosure controls and procedures were also ineffective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in reports that we file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our principal executive and financial officers to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of the CEO to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Internal controls over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records which in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and disposition of the Company’s assets; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the issuer; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
A material weakness is a deficiency or a combination of deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
In evaluating the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, management used the criteria established in the Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Based on the criteria established by COSO, management (with the participation of the CEO and CFO) identified the following material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, which arose from the limited number of number of staff at the Company and the inability to achieve proper segregation of duties:
● | The Company lacked effective controls for ensuring the accuracy of reporting over significant account balances, including the review, approval, and documentation of related transactions and account reconciliations and other complex accounting procedures. | |
● | The Company lacked effective controls because their directors are not independent. |
35 |
As a result of these material weaknesses, management concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, based on the criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.
This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Security and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
The Company’s management, including the CEO and acting CFO, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. Further, the design of the control system must reflect that there are resource constraints and that the benefits must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Except as set forth above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Attestation Report of the Registered Public Accounting Firm
This annual report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report on Form 10-K.
ITEM 9B. Other Information
None.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Our directors and officers are indemnified as provided by the New York Business Corporation Law (“Section 722”) and our bylaws. We have been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event of a claim for indemnification against such liabilities is asserted by one of our directors, executive officers or controlling persons, we will, unless in the opinion of our legal counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit the question of whether such indemnification is against public policy to a court of appropriate jurisdiction. We will then be governed by the court’s decision.
Director Compensation
There were no formal agreements with our directors for compensation until March 1, 2022, although they have received shares for their services from time to time.
Director Independence
During the period ended December 31, 2021, we had no independent directors.
Legal Proceedings
During the past ten years, none of our current directors or executive officers has been:
● | the subject of any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time; |
● | convicted in a criminal proceeding or is subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses); |
● | subject to any order, judgment or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities; |
● | found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the SEC or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, that has not been reversed, suspended, or vacated; |
● | subject of, or a party to, any order, judgment, decree or finding, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, relating to an alleged violation of a federal or state securities or commodities law or regulation, law or regulation respecting financial institutions or insurance companies, law or regulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud or fraud in connection with any business entity; or |
● | subject of, or a party to, any sanction or order, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any self-regulatory organization, any registered entity or any equivalent exchange, association, entity or organization that has disciplinary authority over its members or persons associated with a member. |
None of our directors, officers or affiliates, or any beneficial owner of 5% or more of our Common Stock, or any associate of such persons, is an adverse party in any material proceeding to, or has a material interest adverse to, us or any of our subsidiaries.
Directors’ and Officers’ Liability Insurance
The Company does not have directors’ and officers’ liability insurance insuring our directors and officers against liability for acts or omissions in their capacities as directors or officers.
Code of Ethics
We intend to adopt a code of ethics that applies to our officers, directors and employees, including our principal executive officer and principal accounting officer, but have not done so to date due to our relatively small size. We intend to adopt a written code of ethics in the near future.
Corporate Governance & Board Independence
Our Board of Directors consists of six directors and has not established a Nominating or Governance Committees as standing committees. The Board does not have an executive committee or any committees performing a similar function. We are not currently listed on a national securities exchange or in an inter-dealer quotation system that has requirements that a majority of the board of directors be independent.
Due to our lack of operations and size, and since we are not currently listed on a national securities exchange, we are not subject to any listing requirements mandating the establishment of any particular committees; all functions of a nominating/governance committee were performed by our whole board of directors. Our board of directors intends to appoint such persons and form such committees as are required to meet the corporate governance requirements imposed by the national securities exchanges as necessary. Our board of directors does not believe that it is necessary to have such committees at the early stage of the company’s development, and our board of directors believes that the functions of such committees can be adequately performed by the members of our board of directors.
39 |
We believe that members of our board of directors are capable of analyzing and evaluating our consolidated financial statements and understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. We believe that retaining an independent director who would qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” would be overly costly and burdensome and is not warranted in our circumstances given the early stages of our development and the fact that we have not generated any material revenues to date.
Board Leadership Structure
The Board of Directors is led by the Chairman. The Board believes its current leadership structure best serves the objectives of the Board’s oversight of management, the Board’s ability to carry out its roles and responsibilities on behalf of the Company’s shareholders, and the Company’s overall corporate governance. The Board periodically reviews the leadership structure to determine whether it continues to best serve the Company and its shareholders.
Audit Committee and Financial Expert; Committees
The Company does not have an audit committee. We are not a “listed company” under SEC rules and are therefore not required to have an audit committee comprised of independent directors.
The Company has no nominating or compensation committees at this time. The entire Board participates in the nomination and audit oversight processes and considers executive and director compensation. Given the size of the Company and its stage of development, the entire Board is involved in such decision-making processes. Thus, there is a potential conflict of interest in that our directors and officers have the authority to determine issues concerning management compensation, nominations, and audit issues that may affect management decisions. We are not aware of any other conflicts of interest with any of our executive officers or directors.
Compliance with Section 16(A) of the Exchange Act
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company’s directors, executive officers and persons who beneficially own 10% or more of a class of securities registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act to file reports of beneficial ownership and changes in beneficial ownership with the SEC. Directors, executive officers and greater than 10% stockholders are required by the rules and regulations of the SEC to furnish the Company with copies of all reports filed by them in compliance with Section 16(a).
Based solely on our review of certain reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the reports required to be filed with respect to transactions in our common stock during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, were timely, except that two of the newly appointed directors did not timely file a Form 3 upon their appointments.
Family relationships
There are no family relationships among any of our officers or directors.

Gregory Breunich was appointed as the Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer of the Company on January 6, 2021.

These conditions may not ever be satisfied, the Company may never enter into a definitive Share Exchange Agreement with BHI, the Share Exchange with BHI may never be consummated, and even if it is, it may not be consummated on the terms described therein.
ITEM 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters

Information relating to beneficial ownership of common stock by our principal shareholders and management is based upon information furnished by each person using beneficial ownership’ concepts under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Under these rules, a person is deemed to be a beneficial owner of a security if that person has or shares voting power, which includes the power to vote or direct the voting of the security, or investment power, which includes the power to vote or direct the voting of the security.

Except as noted below, each person has sole voting and investment power.
