Note 1 - Organization and Basis of Presentation

Organization and Line of Business

AmeraMex International, Inc., (the “Company”) was incorporated on May 29, 1990 under the laws of the state of Nevada. The Company sells, leases and rents new and refurbished heavy equipment primarily in the U.S. The Company operates under the name of Hamre Equipment.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Liquidity Considerations

At September 30, 2021, the Company had working capital of approximately $1,052,000. On February 9, 2021, the Company received a second Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan in the amount of $254,147. On October 22, 2021, the Company requested forgiveness for this loan and expects to receive 100% forgiveness. On April 6, 2021, the Company received notice that the SBA had increased the limit on the Economic Injury Disaster Loan program (EIDL) from $150,000 to $500,000. The Company requested the increase and is still awaiting funding. The Company is currently working with several funding agencies to obtain a $10,000,000 line of credit that would be secured with real estate and inventory. The Company has met all qualifications but there can be no assurance that the Company will receive such loan at this time.

Moving forward, the Company expects to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations and expects to continue to obtain financing for equipment purchases in the normal course of business. The Company believes that its expected cash flows from operations, together with its current or a future new credit facility, will be sufficient to operate in the normal course of business for the next 12 months.

Risks and Uncertainties

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) a pandemic, as a result of which the Company is subject to additional risks and uncertainties. In response to the pandemic, governments and organizations have taken preventative or protective actions, such as temporary closures of non-essential businesses and “shelter-at-home” guidelines for individuals. As a result, the global economy has been negatively affected, and the Company’s business has been negatively affected in a number of ways, the worst of which was felt in 2020. The Company has had several large transactions that have been put on hold until the State of California is completely reopened. In addition, the Company has all sales, administrative and account employees working from home. Shop employees are practicing social distancing and only one customer is allowed in the facility at a time. Most directly, a number of states and local governments have taken steps that have prohibited or curtailed the sale of equipment or curtailed construction activities during the pandemic. In some jurisdictions, shelter-at-home orders, or other orders related to the pandemic, have impeded and continue to impede equipment sales. With the reopening of the State of California. the Company has experienced a resurgence in sales and rentals of both new and used equipment. The nationwide shortages in truck drivers and the increase in fuel prices has led to higher costs to transport equipment and delays in deliveries to customers. Our customers have been very understanding during this difficult period and we have not lost any deals because of these difficulties.

The severity of the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s business will depend on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the duration and severity of the pandemic and the extent and severity of the impact on the Company’s customers, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. The Company’s future results of operations and liquidity could be adversely impacted by delays in payments of outstanding receivable amounts beyond normal payment terms. Given the dynamic nature of this situation, the Company cannot predict with absolute certainty, the ultimate impact of COVID-19 on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED

September 30, 2021 

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited interim financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, within the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared on a basis consistent with the audited financial statements and in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented and of the financial condition as of the date of the interim balance sheet. The financial data and the other information disclosed in these notes to the interim financial statements related to the three and nine-month periods are unaudited. Unaudited interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full fiscal year. These unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2020 and notes thereto that are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.  

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions.

These estimates and assumptions 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. It is possible that accounting estimates and assumptions may be material to the Company due to the levels of subjectivity and judgment involved. Significant estimates in these unaudited interim financial statements include the allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory allowances, convertible notes policy and estimated useful life of property and equipment.

Convertible Debt and Preferred Stock, and Embedded Derivatives

Convertible debt is accounted for under the guidelines established by Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options. ASC 470-20 governs the calculation of an embedded beneficial conversion, a derivative instrument, which is treated as an additional discount to the instruments where derivative accounting does not apply. This applies during the period for which embedded conversion features are either fixed, contingently convertible, or cash or net settlement is in control of the Company. The proceeds allocated to the equity instruments may reduce the carrying value of the convertible debt, and such discount is amortized to interest expense over the term of the debt. The Company generally has the option to pay the convertible notes at a premium ranging from [0% to 135%]^[2] within the first 180 before they become convertible. The discount relating to the initial recording of the original issue discounts, issue costs, warrants and beneficial conversion feature are accreted, together with the premium, over the estimated term of the debt, which is generally 180 days from the date of issuance.

Many of the conversion features embedded in the Company’s notes become exercisable upon the event of default or upon the passage of time in the event the Company does not repay the notes, at a premium, at 180 days from issuance of the note. If the conversion price is adjusted based on a discount to the market price of the Company’s common stock, the number of shares upon conversion is potentially unlimited. In the event we cannot control the net share settlement and cash settlement, we record the embedded conversion feature as a derivate instrument, at fair value. The excess of fair value of the embedded conversion feature, together with the original issue discounts, warrants, and issue costs over the face value of the debt, is recorded as an immediate charge in the accompanying statements of operations and cash flows. Each reporting period, the Company will compute the estimated fair value of derivatives and record changes to operations. The discounts are accreted over the term of the debt, which is generally six months after the notes become convertible, using the effective interest method.

September 30, 2021 

ASC 470-50, Extinguishments, require entities to record an extinguishment when the terms of the original note are significantly modified, defined as a greater than 10% change in expected cash flows. As a result of modifications made to one of the Company’s convertible notes during the reporting period, we recorded a loss as reported in the accompanying statements of operations and cash flows.

Line of Credit Issuance Costs

The Company capitalizes and amortizes direct issue costs incurred in connection with its line of credit arrangement. On or about March 30, 2019 (see Note 6), the Company incurred $245,000 in costs comprised of origination fees totaling approximately $180,000 and appraisal costs of approximately $65,000. These costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the term of the debt. Included in Other Assets in the accompanying balance sheet at September 30, 2021 are unamortized loan fees of $34,724. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company amortized $20,417, $61,250 and $20,417, $61,250 in loan fees, respectively.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” (“ASU 2016-02”) which supersedes ASC Topic 840, Leases. ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on their balance sheets for all leases with terms greater than 12 months. Based on certain criteria, leases will be classified as either financing or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. If a lessee makes this election, it should recognize lease expense for such leases generally on a straight-line basis over the lease term. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 for smaller reporting companies, and interim periods within those years, with early adoption permitted. [The Company adopted this new standard on January 1, 2021.]^[3] In transition, lessees and lessors are required to recognize and measure leases at the beginning of the earliest period presented using a modified retrospective approach. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11, “Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements” that allows entities to apply the provisions of the new standard at the effective date, as opposed to the earliest period presented under the modified retrospective transition approach and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The modified retrospective approach includes a number of optional practical expedients primarily focused on leases that commenced before the effective date of Topic 842, including continuing to account for leases that commence before the effective date in accordance with previous guidance, unless the lease is modified. The Company currently expects that most of its operating lease commitments will be subject to the new standard and recognized as operating lease liabilities and right-of-use assets upon its adoption of Topic 842, which will increase the total assets and total liabilities that the Company reports relative to such amounts prior to adoption.

We intend that such forward-looking statements be subject to the safe harbors for such statements. Readers should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. Any forward-looking statements represent management’s best judgment as to what may occur in the future.

Recent Developments Related to the COVID-19 Outbreak

All of the disclosures set forth in this Item 2 should be read in the context of the recent COVID-19 related developments discussed immediately below.  All of the disclosures recited in “Recent Developments Related to the COVID-19 Outbreak” are as of the date of this filing.

The occurrence of the COVID-19 pandemic may negatively affect our operations depending on the severity and longevity of the pandemic.

The COVID-19 pandemic is currently impacting countries, communities, supply chains and markets as well as the global financial markets. The pandemic has resulted in social distancing, travel bans and quarantine, and this has limited and may continue to 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 SEC. Depending on the severity and longevity of the COVID-19 pandemic, our business, customers, and shareholders may experience a significant negative impact. (See Financial Statements, Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – Risks and Uncertainties.)

COVID-19 Update

In connection with the COVID-19 pandemic, we have been approved by the Small Business Administration (SBA) for the following financial assistance:

With the vaccination of multiple employees and as the State of California reduces restrictions, our sales, administrative, and accounting employees have returned to our main office. We are continuing our extended cleaning efforts and restrictions on the number of customers allowed inside the facility at a time. Shop employees are servicing contracts with our essential customers and are often traveling to do so. All employees are practicing social distancing.  

Overview of the Business

We sell, lease, and rent heavy equipment to companies within four industries: construction (light and infrastructure), shipping logistics, mining, and commercial farming. With customers in the United States, Canada, Latin America, Asia and Africa, we have over 30 years of experience in heavy equipment sales and service and inventories of top-of-the-line equipment from manufacturers such as Taylor Machine Works Inc. and Terex Heavy Equipment. We were originally incorporated as Hamre Equipment Company, Inc. in California on November 17, 1989. We merged into AmeraMex International, Inc., a Nevada corporation, on November 2, 2006.

Results of Operations 

Revenue

Revenue for the nine months ending September 30, 2021 was $18,509,920 compared to $9,101,566 for the same time during 2020, a 103% increase. Sales of Equipment and Other Revenues for the nine months ending September 30, 2021 was $16,494,253 and made up 89% of our Total Revenues. For the nine months ending September 30, 2020, Sales of Equipment and Other Revenues made up $7,106,628, or 78% of Total Revenues. The remaining portion of Total Revenues, Rentals and Leases, for the respective periods were $2,015,667, or 11%, in 2021 and in 2020, Rentals and Leases made up 22% of Total Revenues and totaled $1,994,938. Sales of Equipment and Other Revenues more than doubled year over year due to lower interest rates, which made financing easier for our customers, as well as the continued momentum we have experienced as the State of California reduces restrictions tied to the COVID-19 pandemic which shut down our state and halted all major sales from March 2020 through June 2020. Rentals and Leases stayed consistent year over year due to a higher amount of short-term rentals offsetting the conversion of two long-term rentals into sales.

Revenue for the three months ending September 30, 2021 was $8,180,273 compared to $5,880,412 for the same period during 2020, a 39% increase. Sales of Equipment and Other Revenues for the three months ending September 30, 2021 was $7,591,527 and made up 93% of our Total Revenues. For the three months ending September 30, 2020, Sales of Equipment and Other Revenues made up $5,168,949 or 88% of Total Revenues. Sales of Equipment and Other Revenues increased by 47% in the third quarter due in part to a multi-machine order for one of our long-standing customers. The remaining portion of Total Revenues, Rentals and Leases, for the respective three-month periods were $588,746, or 7%, in 2021 and in 2020, Rentals and Leases made up 12% of Total Revenues and totaled $711,463. This is a 17% reduction in Rentals and Leases and is due to the conversion of two long-term rentals into sales. 

Cost of Revenue

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021. Costs of Revenue for the nine months ending September 30, 2021 were $15,552,524 compared to the same period in 2020 of $7,418,541, an increase of 110% as our revenue increased.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2021. Costs of Revenue for the three months ending September 30, 2021 were $7,365,012 compared to $5,071,886, an increase of 45%. The price of used equipment has been increasing since the beginning of 2021 and was noticeably higher during the third quarter.

Operating expenses decreased by $115,376 during the nine months ending September 30, 2021 compared to the nine months ending September 30, 2020 and by $317,142 for the three months ending at the same time, respectively. This decrease was due to a one-time legal settlement that hit in 2020.

Interest Expense

The nine months ending September 30, 2021 compared to the nine months ending September 30, 2020 shows a reduction in interest expense from $887,522 to $743,999. The three months ending September 30, 2021 compared to the three months ending September 30, 2020 shows a slight decrease from $260,989 to $208,967.

Operating Results

We had a net profit of $526,570 for the nine months ending September 30, 2021 as compared to net loss of $508,469 for the nine months ending September 30, 2020. The increase is due to the lower interest rates making it easier for customers to purchase equipment.

Liquidity

Moving forward, we expect to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet our obligations and expect to continue to obtain financing for equipment purchases in the normal course of business. The Company believes that our expected cash flows from operations, together with our current credit facility, will be sufficient to operate in the normal course of business for the next 12 months.

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.

Seasonality

Our operating results are not affected by seasonality.

Inflation

[Our business and operating results are not affected in any material way by inflation.]^[4]

Critical Accounting Policies

The SEC issued Financial Reporting Release No. 60, “Cautionary Advice Regarding Disclosure About Critical Accounting Policies” suggesting that companies provide additional disclosure and commentary on their most critical accounting policies. In Financial Reporting Release No. 60, the SEC has defined the most critical accounting policies as the ones that are most important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and operating results and require management to make its most difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. The nature of our business generally does not call for the preparation or use of estimates. Due to that fact, we do not believe that we have any such critical accounting policies. 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide information required by this Item. 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, under the supervision of our President and Chief Financial Officer performed an evaluation (the “Evaluation”) of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to provide a reasonable level of assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, our President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2021, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

There can be no assurance that our disclosure controls and procedures will detect or uncover all failures of persons within our Company and our consolidated subsidiaries to disclose material information otherwise required to be set forth in our periodic reports. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving their control objectives.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting for our Company. Internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by our board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. 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.

Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failure. Internal control over financial reporting can also be circumvented by collusion or improper management override.

Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.

We assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2021. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (“COSO”) of the Treadway Commission’s Internal Control-Integrated Framework.

As a result of this assessment, we have determined that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of September 30, 2021.

It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable and not absolute assurance that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of certain events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote. 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

An evaluation was performed under the supervision of our management, including our President and Chief Financial Officer, of whether any change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in the Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2021. Based on that evaluation, our management, including our President and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2021 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

As of the filing of this report, we have no legal proceedings pending.
