PART I


ITEM 1.

BUSINESS


The Company was originally incorporated in the State of Nevada on March 27, 2007.  On March 14, 2018, the majority of the stock was purchased by MAAB Global Limited, resulting in the name change from CPSM, Inc to Astro Aerospace Ltd. and the business change from pool sales to the research and development of manned and cargo drones.


Current Operations

In 2018, Astro Aerospace Ltd. (Astro or the Company) acquired the software, firmware and hardware for Version 1.0 of a manned drone from Confida Aerospace, Ltd. The drone which is in the early stage of development, has executed multiple flights. It is Astros goal to transform how people and things get from place to place. This will be done by making safe, affordable user-friendly autonomous manned and unmanned Electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing (eVTOL) aircraft available to the mass market anywhere. Astro is currently working on Version 2.0 of the aircraft product which will feature design changes that enhance performance characteristics and safety features. The target market will be government, private sector operators and individuals for a wide range of commercial, logistical and personal uses.  Astro is currently in the flight testing mode of its Passenger Drone Version 1.0, as well as in the development stages of its Version 2.0 Passenger Drone model.


The Company is working with Infly Technology Ltd., our design and manufacturing partner, who is leading the design and development team with responsibility for developing the team as well as building the new prototypes for the two new aircraft models. The Company applied for approval to test the Passenger Drone 1.0 version in Canada in order to display new software, avionics and stability. The Company received an SFOC (Special Flight Operations Certificate) from Transport Canada in September 2018, allowing Astro to take to the sky, and put the Passenger Drone 1.0 Elroy through critical elements of integrated flight testing.  The testing culminated on Wednesday, September 19, 2018 with a 4 minute and 30 second flight, reaching heights of over 60 feet and speeds of over 50 km/h. The avionics and flight control systems were put to task with a multitude of maneuvers and the vehicle remained exceptionally stable, even under the effects of a couple of unexpected wind gusts.


Astro's newest prototype focuses on a multitude of applications including passenger transport, cargo delivery, ambulance and med-evac services, rescue and disaster assistance, military, and B2B. Its newly designed modular structure allows the Astro Top Frame (ALTA) to fly independently, as well as in combination with the individually designed "Astro Pods" for the specific need in that specific industry. A fly-in and pick-up system will allow the vehicle to connect, fly, disconnect and repeat, effectively and efficiently, changing from one application to the next. Astro refers to it as the Swiss Army Knife of the eVTOL world. Along with recent Avionics and Control system upgrades this modularity opens the door to the ever growing opportunities that (eVTOL) electric take-off and landing short haul vehicles bring.  


Astro anticipates the new prototype for the frame to be completed and flying by the end of the second quarter 2021. The Pods will be completed by the end of 2022. We have completed the engineering and firmware for the prototype and are now in building the body for the new prototype. Simulations have gone well.


Asset Purchase Agreement with Confida Aerospace Ltd.

On May 8, 2018, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Confida Aerospace Ltd. Pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company purchased in-process research and development (IPRD) consisting of inventory, hardware designs, software designs, and a trademark all pertaining to passenger drone design and use from Confida Aerospace Ltd. As consideration for the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company issued Confida Aerospace Ltd., 10,000 of the registrants Series B preferred shares. Each preferred share is convertible into 89 common shares and 89 warrants. Each warrant is exercisable into one of the Companys common shares at an exercise price of $11.25. The warrants have an exercise period of five years upon conversion. Additionally, the Company assumed $25,000 of debts incurred by Confida Aerospace Ltd. related to drone development.

Competition

The Company is currently a research and development company focused on the creation of aerial drones for use in carrying passengers or cargo. It is expected that research and development will continue for at least two years, at which point we will seek out a joint venture to help manufacture the design. Once the research and development is complete, we intend to supply our products to a variety of industries, such as government, military, and for private use. The cargo drone is intended to be the first available product.


Our prime competitors are Volocopter, a German company, and Ehang, a Chinese company, which are both developing manned eVTOL craft. Our primary competitive advantage is our proprietary avionics and control systems. Currently, we have a working prototype that has flown while manned, and testing has shown that the design is very stable.


Employees

As of April 14, 2021, we do not have any employees who are not executive officers.


Change of Control/Discontinued Operations

On March 14, 2018, Lawrence and Loreen Calarco, officers and directors of the Company, the Lawrence & Loreen Calarco Family Trust and the Lawrence and Loreen Calarco Trust of June 3, 2014, majority stockholders controlled by Lawrence and Loreen Calarco, sold 3,447,438 common shares and 1,562,500 preferred shares to MAAB Global Limited (MAAB), a non-affiliate of the Company, paid from Bruce Bent, officer and director of MAABs personal funds resulting in a change of control of the Company.  The stock was transferred to MAAB effective March 14, 2018.  The 3,447,438 common shares and 1,562,500 preferred shares represented 62.35% and 100% of the then issued and outstanding common and preferred stock of the Company, respectively.


On April 30, 2018, pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement dated April 16, 2018, the Company exchanged all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Custom Pool & Spa Mechanics, Inc. and Custom Pool Plastering, its wholly owned subsidiaries, for 911,260 common shares of the Company held by the Lawrence & Loreen Calarco Family Trust, an entity controlled by Lawrence & Loreen Calarco, former officers and directors of the Company. The Board of Directors subsequently authorized the cancellation of those common shares.  After said cancellation, the total issued and outstanding common shares was 4,618,004.  The Share Exchange Agreement was approved by the Board of Directors and written consent of shareholders holding 62.35% of the voting securities of the Company as of April 16, 2018.


The Company discontinued operations of Custom Pool in 2018.



ITEM 1A.

RISK FACTORS


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. A pandemic has resulted in social distancing, travel bans and quarantine which have limited access to our facilities, 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. Depending on the severity and longevity of the COVID-19 pandemic, our business and shareholders may experience a significant negative impact.  Currently, the COVID-19 pandemic has limited our ability to move forward with our operations and has negatively affected our ability to timely comply with our ongoing filing obligations with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

We do not pay rent for this space and the lease terms for the property is currently indefinite.



ITEM 3.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS


From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings that may arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may have an adverse effect on our business, financial conditions, or operating results. We are not aware of any legal proceedings or claims that will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or operating results.

ITEM 5.

MARKET FOR REGISTRANTS COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER

MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES


There is a limited public trading market for the common stock. Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Market OTCQB under the symbol "ASDN", with quotations that commenced in October 2009; however, the market for common shares is extremely limited. No assurance can be given that the present limited market for our common stock will continue or will be maintained.


For any market that is maintained for our common stock, the resale of restricted securities pursuant to Rule 144 of the Commission by members of management or other persons may have a substantial adverse impact on any such public market.  Present members of management have already satisfied the one-year holding period of Rule 144 for public sales of a large portion of their holdings in the Company thereunder.


A minimum holding period of six months is required for resales under Rule 144. In addition, affiliates of the Company must comply with certain other requirements, including publicly available information concerning the Company; limitations on the volume of restricted securities which can be sold in any 90-day period; the requirement of unsolicited brokers transactions; and the filing of a Notice of Sale on Form 144.


Holders

As of April 14, 2021, we have approximately 36 shareholders of record of our common stock.


Sales under Rule 144 are also subject to manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about the Company. Under Rule 144(k), a person who has not been one of our affiliates at any time during the three months preceding a sale, and who has beneficially owned the shares proposed to be sold for at least six months, is entitled to sell shares without complying with the manner of sale, volume limitation or notice provisions of Rule 144.


Dividend Policy

As of the date of this annual report, we have not paid any dividends to shareholders. There are no restrictions which would limit our ability to pay dividends on common equity or that are likely to do so in the future. The Nevada Revised Statutes, however, do prohibit us from declaring dividends where, after giving effect to the distribution of the dividend; we would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or our total assets would be less than the sum of the total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the rights of shareholders who have preferential rights superior to those receiving the distribution

Recent Events


COVID-19 Pandemic


The COVID-19 pandemic is currently impacting countries, communities, supply chains and markets as well as the global financial markets. Governments have imposed laws requiring social distancing, travel bans and quarantine, and these laws may limit access to the Companys facilities, customers, management, support staff and professional advisors. These factors, in turn, may not only impact the Companys operations, financial condition and demand for the Companys goods and services, but the Companys overall ability to react timely to mitigate the impact of this event. Also, it has affected the Companys efforts to comply with filing obligations with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Depending on the severity and longevity of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Companys business and stockholders may experience a significant negative impact. Currently, the COVID-19 pandemic has limited the Companys ability to move forward with our operations and has negatively affected our ability to timely comply with our ongoing filing obligations with the Securities and Exchange Commission.


Default and Forbearance on the 8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Notes


Refer to Note 7, Default and Forbearance on the 8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Notes, in the consolidated financial statements.


Reverse Common Stock Split


On October 8, 2020, the Companys majority stockholder approved a 1-for-15 reverse common stock split (the Reverse Stock Split). On February 5, 2021, the Company effected the Reverse Stock Split, reducing the number of common shares outstanding. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every 15 shares of issued and outstanding common stock were combined into one issued and outstanding share of common stock, without any change in the par value per share and common shares authorized. All current and prior year share amounts and per share calculations have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the impact of this Reverse Stock Split and to provide data on a comparable basis. Such restatements include calculations regarding the Companys weighted average shares and loss per share.


Operations Astro Aerospace, Ltd.


In 2018, Astro Aerospace Ltd. (Astro or the Company) acquired the software, firmware and hardware for Version 1.0 of a manned drone from Confida Aerospace, Ltd.

We have completed the engineering and firmware for the prototype and are now building the body for the new prototype. Simulations have gone well. The drone is in an early development stage. The Company expects that it will be marketing the aircraft sometime in in the second quarter of 2022. To date, no commercial applications have been found which would accept the product.


Plan of Operations


Management will expand the business through further investment of capital provided by the controlling shareholder and through additional capital raises from third party investors. The Company raised an additional $1.2 million of cash in November 2018 through the issuance of a Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $1,383,636. In December 2019, the Company raised an additional $125,000, in the first tranche, through the issuance of a new 8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $575,682.


On August 26, 2019, the Company entered into an Equity Purchase Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement with the same investor who provided the Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note. Under the terms of the Equity Purchase Agreement, the investor agreed to purchase from the Company up to $5,000,000 of the Companys common stock upon effectiveness of a registration statement on Form S-1.


As of December 31, 2019, the Company had not issued any stock under the Equity Purchase Agreement. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company put a total of 333,333 shares of common stock at prices ranging from $0.515 and $1.539 for total proceeds of $287,228, net of issuance costs. Subsequent to December 31, 2020, the Company has put 120,000 shares at prices ranging from $2.44 to $2.85 per share for total proceeds of $314,416.


In April 2020, the Company amended the MAAB Promissory Note to increase the maximum principal amount to $1,250,000 and to extend the maturity date to February 28, 2022. The principal amount advanced under the Promissory Note was $1,209,350 at December 31, 2020.


The Company will continue to keep expenses as low as possible with closely monitoring working capital, development cost and schedule, while the Company continues the development of Passenger Drone Version 1.0 and 2.0.


Results of Operations

 

The Year Ended December 31, 2020 compared to The Year Ended December 31, 2019


For the year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company did not have any revenue. It is developing an eVTOL aircraft and expects that it will be marketing the aircraft sometime in in the second quarter of 2022. To date, no commercial applications have been found which would accept the product.

In the year ended December 2020 and 2019, Astro did incur $558,581 and $1,147,261 in operating expenses respectively, a decline of $588,680 or 51%. The decline was across the board in in sales and marketing, general and administrative (G&A) and research and development (R&D). The beginning of the COVID-19 induced worldwide economic shutdowns and affected the Company, especially since all of the R&D is being done in Canada and travel to and from the R&D location is prohibited. The Companys R&D efforts were essentially deferred to future periods. As well, sales and marketing efforts are difficult when the economies are shut down. The Company reduced its overhead expenses in G&A through cost cuts.


Sales and marketing expenses declined from $232,084 in the year ended December 31, 2019 to $115,833 in the year ended December 31, 2020, a decline of $116,251 or 50%. R&D expenses declined $399,170 or 73% in the year ended December 31, 2020 versus 2019 as all R&D spending was drastically reduced and deferred to future periods. General and administrative expenses decreased in the year ended December 31, 2020 versus 2019 to $296,279 from $369,538, largely due to reductions in legal accounting and business fees, offset somewhat by an increase in consulting fees.


Other expenses declined in the year ended December 31, 2020 versus 2019 from $1,157,812 to $627,265, a decline of $530,547 or 46%. The largest portion of the decline is in interest expense, which declined $699,218 or 53%. This is due to the amortization of the 8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Notes, which after the original amortization starting in November 2018 (first tranche), February 2019 (second tranche) and December 2019 for the new 8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note, and the Notes maturing in November 2020, the amortization decreased to $440,017 versus $1,191,874 in the year ended December 31, 2020 versus 2019. There was also a $9,723 decline in bank and filing fees in the  year ended December 31, 2020 versus 2019. In the year ended December 31, 2019, there was miscellaneous income of $178,394 all from the disgorgement of short swing profits pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.


The Company had a net loss of $1,185,846 versus $2,305,073 in the year ended December 31, 2020 versus 2019, largely due to the declines in sales and marketing, R&D spending and a reduction in interest expense. There was also an undeclared preferred dividend of $10,000 in both the 2020 and 2019 years which made the net loss available to common stockholders of $1,195,846 and $2,315,073, respectively.


Astro also had  foreign currency translation losses  of $55,321 and $42,802, respectively in the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 from the difference in the Canadian dollar and U.S. dollar exchange rates those years. The increase in the translation loss is mainly due to the decline in the average Canadian dollar rate versus the average U.S. dollar rate in the fluctuating currency markets. Astros comprehensive loss was $1,241,167 and $2,347,875 in the year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.


Capital Resources and Liquidity


The Company currently is not profitable and must finance its business through raising additional capital. The Company is financed through its parent, MAAB, which has loaned the Company $1,209,350 and there is $40,650 available under the terms of the note through December 31, 2020. The note was amended on April 22, 2020 to increase the maximum principal amount to $1,250,000 and to extend the maturity to February 28, 2022.


The Company also raised an additional $1.2 million of cash in November 2018 through the issuance of a Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $1,383,636. On December 2, 2019, the Company issued a new 8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note and received $125,000 in proceeds. As of March 12, 2021, both tranches of the Note have been completely converted into common stock.


On March 5, 2021, the Company issued a new 8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note (Note) in the aggregate principal amount of $1,250,000 less commissions and expenses of $25,000. The Note matures in six months on September 5, 2021.


The Note is convertible into common shares of the Company at a price which is the lower of: (i) 80% of the lowest volume weighted average price in the five trading days prior to the date of the lenders notice of conversion and (ii) $4.25. The Company is subject to certain penalties if the shares are not issued within two business days of receiving


12



10


the conversion notice. Pursuant to a Security Agreement between the Company and the Investor (the Security Agreement), the Company has granted to the Investor a security interest in its assets to secure repayment of the Notes. The Company must reserve an amount of shares equal to 500% of the total amount of shares issuable upon full conversion of the promissory note. The Company meets this requirement since it has 250,000,000 common shares authorized and as of April 14, 2021, 174,034,699 shares are available to be issued.


On August 26, 2019, the Company entered into an Equity Purchase Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement with the same investor who provided the Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note. Under the terms of the Equity Purchase Agreement, the investor agreed to purchase from the Company up to $5,000,000 of the Companys common stock upon effectiveness of a registration statement on Form S-1.


As of December 31, 2019, the Company had not issued any stock under the Equity Purchase Agreement. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company put a total of 333,333 shares of common stock at prices ranging from $0.515 and $1.539 for total proceeds of $287,228, net of issuance costs. Subsequent to December 31, 2020, the Company has put 120,000 shares at prices ranging from $2.44 to $2.85 per share for total proceeds of $314,416.


Further capital support will come from the parent, and additional capital from third party sources. There is no assurance that the third party capital will be available. In the event that additional capital from the private or public markets is not available, the Company will need to reduce its spending on development and operations to the level of the capital that is available from the parent.


The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of our business. As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, for the year ended December 31, 2020 the Company had a net loss of $1,185,846 and used $653,882 in cash in operations, and at December 31, 2020, had negative working capital of $1,071,951, current assets of $114,298, and an accumulated deficit of $11,502,721. The foregoing factors raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. Ultimately, the ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Companys ability to attract significant new sources of capital, attain a reasonable threshold of operating efficiencies and achieve profitable operations by licensing or otherwise commercializing products incorporating the Companys technologies. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.


While the Company has Net Operating Losses (NOL) for tax purposes due to the net losses through the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company has taken a 100% income tax valuation allowance against it resulting in no deferred tax asset. At this time, it is not known if the Company will become profitable with the ability to use the NOL.


The Company expects to spend $760,000 in the next six months and then another $1,500,000 in the subsequent six months on the development and marketing of the eVTOL aircraft.

We also had a non-cash financing fee of $7,500 issued as a component of the new 8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note of December 2, 2019.


As a result, we had net cash provided by financing activities of $939,378 for the year ended December 31, 2019.

For the year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, we had a loss on foreign currency translation of $55,321 and $42,802, respectively.

 

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance


Under Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, an officer, director, or greater-than-10% shareholder of the Company must file a Form 4 reporting the acquisition or disposition of Companys equity securities with the Securities and Exchange Commission no later than the end of the second business day after the day the transaction occurred unless certain exceptions apply.  Transactions not reported on Form 4 must be reported on Form 5 within 45 days after the end of the Companys fiscal year.  Such persons must also file initial reports of ownership on Form 3 upon becoming an officer, director, or greater-than-10% shareholder.  Mr. Bruce Bent, the Companys Chief Executive Officer, is currently up to date in meeting these requirements and has notified the Company that he is now compliant.  On August 30, 2019, pursuant to Section 16(a), Mr. Bent disgorged short swing profits of $178,394 to the Company.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates


Management's Discussion and Analysis of its Financial Condition and Results of Operations is based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on- going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to the reported amounts of revenues and expenses and the valuation of our assets and contingencies.  We believe our estimates and assumptions to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, actual results could differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Our consolidated financial statements are based on the assumption that we will continue as a going concern. If we are unable to continue as a going concern, we would experience additional losses from the write-down of assets.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm



To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors

Astro Aerospace Ltd.

Lewisville, Texas:


Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Astro Aerospace Ltd. and Subsidiary (the "Company"), as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company at December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.


Going Concern


The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $11,502,721 at December 31, 2020 and a loss from operations of $1,185,846 for the year ended December 31, 2020, and a working capital deficiency of $1,071,951 which raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to this matter are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.


Basis for Opinion


These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's consolidated financial statements based on our audits. 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 audits 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 audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.


Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matters


The critical audit matter communicated below is a atter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the Board of Directors and that (i) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments  The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated 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.


Impairment of Acquired In-Process Research and Development Costs


The Company acquired in-process research and development (IPRD) consisting of inventory, hardware designs, software designs, and a trademark all pertaining to early development stage drone design.


As described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Companys acquired IPRD costs balance was $871,000 as of December 31, 2020.  IPRD is reviewed for impairment annually, or more frequently if indicators of impairment exist.  The Company performed an impairment test for the IPRD and concluded that it was not impaired at December 31, 2020. The evaluation of impairment involves comparing the current fair value of IPRD to its carrying value.  Management uses the assistance of an independent specialist to determine the estimated fair value of IPRD.  Fair value is estimated using a model that contains various quantitative adjustments.  The determination of fair value using this technique requires the use of significant inputs, estimates and assumptions and other industry-based information of peer companies within the aerospace industry and similar industries that have development stage research and development (R&D) activities.


The principal consideration for our determination that performing procedures relating to the impairment assessments of the IPRD is a critical audit matter is the significant and inherent judgment required in developing the fair value measurement of the asset.  In turn, this led to a high degree of auditor judgment, effort and subjectivity in performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence related to these inputs, estimates, and significant assumptions for the impairment assessment.  In addition, the audit effort involved the use of an independent impairment analysis provided by a management specialist with specialized skill and knowledge.


Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements.  These procedures included the following, among others:


·

We assessed the reasonableness of the inputs, assumptions, and estimates utilized within the Companys impairment analysis, which included financial data of certain peers within the Companys industry and similar industries that have development stage R&D activities.

·

We tested financial data utilized in the impairment analysis to assess the accuracy of the inputs.

·

We assessed the reasonableness of other quantitative inputs by obtaining and evaluating the information against source documentation.

·

We tested the completeness and accuracy of total R&D costs data provided by management to the independent specialist.

·

We tested the overall mathematical accuracy of the impairment calculation.

ASTRO AEROSPACE LTD. AND SUBSIDIARY

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

At December 31, 2020 and 2019 And For The Years Then Ended


NOTE 1 NATURE OF OPERATIONS


Astro Aerospace Ltd. (Astro or the Company) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, is a developer of self-piloted and autonomous, manned and unmanned, eVTOL (Electric Vertical Take Off and Landing) aerial vehicles. The Company intends to provide the market with a mainstream mode of everyday, aerial transportation for both humans and cargo. Astro currently has a working prototype and is working on ALTA an updated version of the working prototype with engineering and mechanical improvements as well as pods which will be interchangeable with the frame allowing the unit to be used for cargo, passenger and other activities.  


Astro is the successor corporation to CPSM, Inc., which was primarily engaged in providing a full line pool and spa services, and pool resurfacing. On March 14, 2018, MAAB Global Limited (MAAB), the majority stockholder and parent of Astro, acquired control of CPSM, Inc. On March 24, 2018 the articles of incorporation were amended to change the name of the Company from CPSM, Inc. to Astro Aerospace Ltd. As of December 31, 2020, the Company has one subsidiary, Astro Aerospace Ltd. (Canada), which is incorporated in Canada and is used to record Canadian dollar expenditures in order to recover refunds of the Goods and Services Tax in Canada.


In 2018, the Company acquired in-process research and development (IPRD) consisting of inventory, hardware designs, software designs, and a trademark all pertaining to passenger drone design and use from Confida Aerospace Ltd. The drone is in an early development stage. The Company expects that it will be marketing the aircraft sometime in in the second quarter of 2022. To date, no commercial applications have been found which would accept the product.


Going Concern


The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of our business. As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, for the year ended December 31, 2020 the Company had a net loss of $1,185,846 and used $653,882 in cash in operations, and at December 31, 2020, had negative working capital of $1,071,951, current assets of $114,298, and an accumulated deficit of $11,502,721. The foregoing factors raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. Ultimately, the ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Companys ability to attract significant new sources of capital, attain a reasonable threshold of operating efficiencies and achieve profitable operations by licensing or otherwise commercializing products incorporating the Companys technologies. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.


The Company acknowledges that its current cash position is insufficient to maintain the current level of operations and research and development, and that the Company will be required to raise substantial additional capital to continue its operations and fund its future business plans. The Company has continued to raise funds through its parent, MAAB and the outstanding note payable balance was $1,209,350 and there is $40,650 available under the terms of the note at December 31, 2020. The Company has also raised funds through independent capital sources, of which the Company has two Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Notes, the first of which has an outstanding balance of $688,166 at December 31, 2020 and the second of which has an outstanding balance of $121,691 at December 31, 2020. The first Senior Secured Convertible Note is subject to a second forbearance agreement and the second Senior Secured Convertible Note is also subject to a forbearance agreement (See Note 7, Default and Forbearance on the 8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Notes).


The Company has also executed an Equity Purchase Agreement whereby the Investor agreed to purchase from the Company up to $5,000,000 of the Companys common stock (See Note 12, Equity Purchase Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement). Through April 14, 2021, the Company put 453,333 shares of common stock at prices ranging from $.52 to $2.85 per share for total proceeds of $601,644.

NOTE 1 NATURE OF OPERATIONS (continued)


Astro plans to raise additional capital in the private and public securities markets through 2021.


Reverse Common Stock Split


On October 8, 2020, the Companys majority stockholder approved a 1-for-15 reverse common stock split (the Reverse Stock Split). On February 5, 2021, the Company effected the Reverse Stock Split, reducing the number of common shares outstanding. As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, every 15 shares of issued and outstanding common stock were combined into one issued and outstanding share of common stock, without any change in the par value per share and common shares authorized. All current and prior year share amounts and per share calculations have been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the impact of this reverse stock split and to provide data on a comparable basis. Such restatements include calculations regarding the Companys weighted average shares and loss per share.


NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Principles of Consolidation


The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.


Basis of Presentation


The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP").


Cash


All highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less or money market accounts held at financial institutions are considered to be cash. Substantially all of the cash is placed with one financial institution. From time to time during the year the cash accounts are exposed to credit loss for amounts in excess of insured limits of $250,000 in the event of non-performance by the institution, however, it is not anticipated that there will be non-performance.


Intangible Assets Acquired In-Process Research and Development


Acquired in-process research and development (IPRD) consists of acquired drone technology and engineering and trademarks. The Company reviews the IPRD, which currently has an indefinite useful life, for impairment at least annually or more frequently if an event occurs creating the potential for impairment, until such time as the research and development efforts are completed or abandoned.  If the research and development efforts are abandoned, the related costs will be written off in the period of such determination. If the research and development efforts are completed successfully, the related assets will be amortized over the estimated useful life of the underlying products. The Company will amortize the cost of identified intangible assets using amortization methods that reflect the pattern in which the economic benefits of the intangible assets are consumed or otherwise realized. A valuation by an independent third party was performed for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, and no further impairment expense was required.

At December 31, 2020 and 2019 And For The Years Then Ended


NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)


Stock-Based Compensation


The Company accounts for stock-based compensation under the fair value recognition provisions of GAAP which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation for all stock-based awards made to employees and directors including stock options and restricted stock issuances based on estimated fair values.


In accordance with GAAP, the fair value of stock-based awards is generally recognized as compensation expense over the requisite service period, which is defined as the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for an award. The Company uses a straight-line attribution method for all grants that include only a service condition. Compensation expense related to all awards is included in operations.


Convertible Notes, Warrants and Beneficial Conversion Feature (BCF)


The convertible note is recorded at its fair value, limited to a relative fair value based upon the percentage of its fair value to the total fair value including the fair value of the warrant. Further, the convertible promissory note is examined for any intrinsic BCF of which the convertible price of the note is less than the closing common stock price on date of issuance. If the relative fair value method is used to value the convertible promissory note and there is an intrinsic BCF, a further analysis is undertaken of the BCF using an effective conversion price which assumes the conversion price is the relative fair value divided by the number of shares the convertible debt is converted into by its terms. The BCF value is accounted for as equity.


Warrants issued with the 8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note are accounted for under the fair value and relative fair value method. The warrant is first analyzed per its terms as to whether it has derivative features or not. If the warrant is determined to be a derivative and not qualify for equity treatment, then it is measured at fair value using the Black Scholes option model and recorded as a liability on the consolidated balance sheet. The warrant is re-measured at its then current fair value at each subsequent reporting date (it is marked-to-market).


If the warrant is determined to not have derivative features, it is recorded into equity at its fair value using the Black Scholes option model, however, limited to a relative fair value based upon the percentage of its fair value to the total fair value including the fair value of the convertible note.


The warrant and BCF relative fair values are also recorded as a discount to the convertible promissory notes and as additional paid-in-capital. Discount on the convertible notes is amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt.


Research and Development


Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

Income Taxes

The asset and liability approach is used to recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of asset and liabilities.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse.  The effect on deferred tax asset and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in operations in the period that includes the enactment date.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

At December 31, 2020 and 2019 And For The Years Then Ended


NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)


Income Taxes (continued)


The Company accounts for uncertainties in income tax law under a comprehensive model for the financial statement recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns as prescribed by GAAP.  Under GAAP, the tax effects of a position are recognized only if it is more-likely-than-not to be sustained by the taxing authority as of the reporting date.  If the tax position is not considered more-likely-than-not to be sustained, then no benefits of the position are recognized.  Management believes there are no unrecognized tax benefits or uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2020 and 2019.


The Company assessed its earnings history, trends and estimates of future earnings and determined that the deferred tax asset could not be realized as of December 31, 2020. Accordingly, a valuation allowance was recorded against the net deferred tax asset.


The Company recognizes interest and penalties on income taxes as a component of income tax expense, should such an expense be realized.


Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Share


The Company computes loss per share in accordance with ASC-260, Earnings per Share which requires presentation of both basic and diluted loss per share on the face of the consolidated statements of operations. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common stock during the year. Diluted loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common stock outstanding during the year, computed using the if converted method for convertible notes and preferred stock. Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common stock if their effect is anti-dilutive. Common stock equivalents are anti-dilutive for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 due to the net loss during the years.


The common stock equivalents are the 8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Notes and the Series A and Series B Convertible Preferred Stock.


For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the basic and diluted net loss per share were computed as follows:

NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)


Comprehensive Loss


Comprehensive loss consists of net loss plus the foreign currency translation loss.


Foreign Currency Translation


The translation of assets and liabilities for the Companys foreign subsidiary is made at year end exchange rates, while revenue and expense accounts are translated at the average exchange rates during the year transactions occurred.


Fair Value Measurement


Generally accepted accounting principles establishes a hierarchy to prioritize the inputs of valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest ranking to the fair values determined by using unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1) and the lowest ranking to fair values determined using methodologies and models with unobservable inputs (Level 3). Observable inputs are those that market participants would use in pricing the assets based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect the Companys assumptions about inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The Company has determined the appropriate level of the hierarchy and applied it to its financial assets and liabilities. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, there were no assets or liabilities carried or measured at fair value.


Use of Estimates and Assumptions


The preparation of consolidated financial statements 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting year. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


A material estimate that is particularly susceptible to significant change in the near-term relate to the determination of the impairment of IPRD. The Company uses various assumptions and actuarial data it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances to make this estimate. Although considerable variability is likely to be inherent in this estimate, management believes that the amount provided is reasonable. This estimate is continually reviewed and adjusted if necessary. Such adjustments, if any, are reflected in operations.


NOTE 3 RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS


In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2020-06, DebtDebt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging Contracts in Entitys Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entitys Own Equity. For convertible instruments, the FASB decided to reduce the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock. Limiting the accounting models results in fewer embedded conversion features being separately recognized from the host contract as compared with current GAAP. Convertible instruments that continue to be subject to separation models are (1) those with embedded conversion features that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract, that meet the definition of a derivative, and that do not qualify for a scope exception from derivative accounting and (2) convertible debt instruments issued with substantial premiums for which the premiums are recorded as paid-in capital. The FASB decided to amend the guidance for the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entitys own equity to reduce form-over-substance-

based accounting conclusions. The FASB observed that the application of the derivatives scope exception guidance results in accounting for some contracts as derivatives while accounting for economically similar contracts as equity. The FASB also decided to improve and amend the related EPS guidance.


The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is currently evaluating the effect on the Companys consolidated financial statements if and when future convertible securities are issued. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.


NOTE 4 CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK


Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash. The Company maintains its cash with high-credit quality financial institutions. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company did not have any cash balances in excess of federally insured limits.


NOTE 5 FAIR VALUE ESTIMATES


The Company measures financial instruments at fair value in accordance with ASC 820, which specifies a valuation hierarchy based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Companys own assumptions.


Management believes the carrying amounts of the Company's cash, other receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 approximate their respective fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The Company measures its notes payable and loan in accordance with the hierarchy of fair value based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. The hierarchy is:


Level 1 Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;


Level 2 Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets; and


Level 3 Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

NOTE 6 8% SENIOR SECURED CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES (continued)


The note is convertible into common shares of the Company at a price equal to 75% of the lowest market value in the thirty trading days prior to the conversion date.  The Company is subject to certain penalties if the shares are not issued within two business days of receiving the conversion notice.  Pursuant to a Security Agreement between the Company and the Investor (the Security Agreement), the Company has granted to the Investor a security interest in its assets to secure repayment of the Notes. The Company must reserve an amount of shares equal to 500% of the total amount of shares issuable upon full conversion of the promissory note. The Company meets this requirement since it has 250,000,000 common shares authorized and as of April 14, 2021, 174,034,699 shares available to be issued.


As additional consideration for the investment, the Company issued 10,417 shares of its common stock to the Investor, valued at $89,531 at the date of issuance, plus warrants to acquire up to an aggregate 22,935 shares of the Companys common stock at an exercise price of $7.65 per share. Upon the closing of the second tranche in February 2019, the Company issued additional warrants to acquire up to an aggregate 28,110 shares of the Companys common stock at an exercise price of $6.00 per share. Each Warrant is exercisable by the Investor beginning on the Effective Date through the fifth year anniversary thereof.  


The Note has a BCF for both tranches, which were valued, along with the warrants, on a relative fair value method. In the first tranche, the warrant fair value was $171,121 (See Note 11, Warrants) and the BCF fair value was $523,326 for a total debt discount of $694,447. The exercise price was $5.63 per share which converts into 124,768 common shares. The common stock price at the valuation date was $8.60 per share, and the effective conversion price was calculated as $4.40, so that the BCF was calculated to be $4.20 per share valuing the BCF at $523,326.


However, adding the OID and the inducement shares to the debt discount, made the final total debt discount $865,796, larger than the principal amount of the Note. Consequently, $163,978 of the debt discount was expensed. During the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company amortized $58,250 and $534,682, respectively, of the debt discount to interest expense. As of December 31, 2020, all debt discounts have been fully amortized.


In the second tranche, the warrant fair value (See Note 11, Warrants) was $121,320 and the BCF fair value was $403,689 for a debt discount of $525,009. The exercise price was $3.7125 per share which converts into 183,655 common shares. The common stock price at the valuation date was $5.25 per share and the effective conversion price was calculated as $3.06, so that the BCF was calculated to be $2.19 per share valuing the BCF at $403,689.  Including the $81,818 of OID, the total debt discount is $606,827. Prior to the forbearance agreement dated September 11, 2019, $498,402 of the debt discount was amortized into interest expense, bringing the debt discount to $108,425. However, the forbearance agreement increased the principal amount, and the debt discount, which were allocated to the second tranche, so there was a net increase in the principal and the debt discount in the second tranche of $257,135 (See Note 7, Default and Forbearance on the 8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Notes). Additional amortization of the debt discount into interest expense during the year ended December 31, 2019 was $134,717 bringing the debt discount to $230,843 at December 31, 2019. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the remaining debt discount was amortized to interest expense.


The Investor converted $657,247 in principal amount of the Note into 229,102 shares of the Companys common stock during the year ended December 31, 2019. Additionally, during the year ended December 31, 2020, the Investor converted $320,829 in principal amount of the Note into 470,810 shares of the Companys common stock. Total accrued interest on the Note was $145,606 and $83,557 as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. On January 29, 2020, the Investor sold $30,000 principal amount of the Note to an independent third party investor.

NOTE 6 8% SENIOR SECURED CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES (continued)


The Company again defaulted on the 8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note as of June 30, 2020. However, the Company reached a forbearance with the Investor on June 30, 2020.  On November 28, 2020, the Company again defaulted on the 8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note, (See Note 7, Default and Forbearance on the 8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Notes).


On December 2, 2019, the Company issued a new 8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note in the aggregate principal amount of up to $575,682. The initial tranche principal of $149,546 was issued, with an OID of $17,046, the pro-rated portion of the $68,182 OID for the entire principal amount of $575,682, a $7,500 financing fee for the lenders transactional expenses that was expensed and the Company received proceeds of $125,000. The Note matured on June 2, 2020. The Company defaulted on this Note and reached a forbearance with the Investor on June 30, 2020. On November 28, 2020, the Company again defaulted on the 8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note (See Note 7, Default and Forbearance on the 8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Notes).


The Note is convertible into common shares of the Company at a price equal to 75% of the lowest market value in the thirty trading days prior to the conversion date, which created a BCF valued at greater than the total principal amount of the Note issued of $149,546. The exercise price was $0.5625 per share which converts into 265,859 common shares. The common stock price at the valuation date was $1.95 per share and the conversion price was calculated as $0.5625, so that the BCF was calculated to be $1.3875 per share valuing the BCF at $368,879.


In accordance with ASC 470-20-30-8, if the intrinsic value of the BCF is greater than the proceeds allocated to the convertible instrument, the amount of the discount assigned to the BCF shall be limited to the amount of the proceeds allocated to the convertible instrument. Therefore, the BCF is limited to $132,500, which when added to the OID of $17,046 equals the principal amount of $149,546. The BCF is being amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the note.


Amortization of the debt discount into interest expense was $24,093 for the year ended December 31, 2019, bringing the debt discount to $125,453 at December 31, 2019. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the remaining debt discount was amortized to interest expense.


During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Investor converted $27,855 in principal amount of the Note into 40,000 shares of the Companys common stock. The Company had accrued interest of $12,073 and $1,927 on the Note as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.


NOTE 7 DEFAULT AND FORBEARANCE ON THE 8% SENIOR SECURED CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE


On May 21, 2019, six months after the issuance of the first tranche of the 8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note, the Note matured with $307,798 in principal outstanding and approximately $24,118 in accrued interest. The Company was unable to repay the principal and accrued interest and therefore was in default of the Note. The Note has default provisions permitting default interest of 18% to be charged on the Note as well as to charge a default amount of 150% of the unpaid principal and interest.


The Note was issued with two $600,000 tranches of cash payments. Since both tranches are in one Note, both tranches are in default as of May 21, 2019.

NOTE 7 DEFAULT AND FORBEARANCE ON THE 8% SENIOR SECURED CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE (continued)


The Company and the Investor promptly began negotiations on a Forbearance Agreement and on September 11, 2019, the Company and the Investor agreed to a Forbearance Agreement. Pursuant to this agreement, the Investor is willing to postpone pursuing its rights and remedies under the agreements, in particular and without limitation with respect to the acceleration of the promissory note and the immediate payment of the default amount and reduce the balance of the promissory note to the pre-default balance plus accrued non-default interest of $1,062,784 on the following terms: 1) subject to the Companys compliance with the forbearance agreement, the forbearance shall commence on the effective date and will expire on June 30, 2020.  2) Should the Company fail to abide by any of the terms and conditions of the forbearance agreement, fail to comply with the terms of the other agreements, or fail to timely make the payments required under the promissory notes, or should the Company trigger an event of default, the forbearance period will immediately terminate.  3) Subject to the Companys compliance with the forbearance period, the repayment of the promissory note will be reduced from 35% to 0%.


The Companys outstanding principal amount of the Note, after conversions, and the accrued interest as of the Forbearance Agreement date of September 11, 2019, was $805,649. The Forbearance Agreement for the outstanding principal amount and accrued interest of $1,062,784 produces a forbearance penalty of $257,135. This amount increased both the principal balance of the Note and increased the debt discount by the same amount. The $257,135 penalty was amortized over the new maturity of the Note, June 30, 2020, and resulted in a $97,747 amortization expense during the year ended December 31, 2019. The outstanding principal amount of the Note was $983,524 at December 31, 2019. The total remaining discount in the amount of $289,093 was completely amortized to interest expense during the year ended December 31, 2020, and prior to the second forbearance agreement. The outstanding principal amount is $688,166 at December 31, 2020.


As of June 30, 2020, the 8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note was again in default, with a principal balance of $709,862 and an accrued interest of $116,957. Likewise, the 8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note issued December 2, 2019 (together with the 8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note, the Notes) was in default as of June 2, 2020 with a principal balance of $149,546 and accrued interest of $4,910. The Company was unable to repay the principal and accrued interest on both Notes.


On June 30, 2020, the Company and the Investor entered into two New Forbearance Agreements with the same terms for each of the Notes. The Investor also agreed to continue the forbearance from September 11, 2019, the date of previous Forbearance Agreement. The 8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Notes balance was reduced to the pre-default balance plus accrued non-default interest of $852,282, which includes a forbearance penalty of $25,471. This amount increased both the principal balance of the Note and increased the debt discount by the same amount. Likewise, the 8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note issued December 2, 2019 balance was reduced to the pre-default balance plus accrued non-default interest of $156,276. The maturity of both Notes was extended until November 28, 2020. The penalty was amortized over the new maturity of the Note and was completely amortized to interest expense during the year ended December 31, 2020.


During the forbearance period, the acceleration of the Notes and payment of the default amounts shall be deemed suspended, subject to the ability of the Investor hereunder to immediately exercise its rights and remedies under this Forbearance Agreement, including but not limited to the acceleration of the Notes and enforcement of payment of the default amounts.


If at any time after the effective date: (i) the Company fails to abide by any of the terms and conditions of the Agreements; or (ii) the Company fails to comply with any of the terms of any of the other transaction documents; or (iii) the Company fails to timely make the payments required under the Notes; or (iv) any events of default occur,

As of November 28, 2020, the Company was again in default on the Notes. Although there is no forbearance agreement in place, both the Investor and Company are continuing to act according to the terms of the Notes. Further, the Investor sold $30,000 in principal amount of the Notes to another third party Investor as of December 31, 2020.


Additionally, the Investor entered into a Note Purchase Agreement with an independent third party investor to sell $800,000 principal amount of the 8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note in three tranches starting January 15, 2021. The tranches are 30 days apart and the principal amounts sold are $300,000 in the first tranche, $300,000 in the second tranche and $200,000 in the third tranche.

NOTE 10 CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK

The fair value of the Commitment Shares as of August 26, 2019 was $48,300. The fair value was entirely expensed in the year ended December 31, 2019.


As of December 31, 2019, the Company had not issued any stock under the Equity Purchase Agreement. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company put a total of 333,333 shares of common stock at prices ranging from $0.515 and $1.539 for total proceeds of $287,228, net of issuance costs.

NOTE 13 2014 STOCK AWARDS PLAN

 

In November 2014, the board of directors of the Company approved the adoptions of a Stock Awards Plan. A total of 7,000,000 shares was authorized to be issued under the plan.

Commission. Depending on the severity and longevity of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Companys business and stockholders may experience a significant negative impact. Currently, the COVID-19 pandemic has limited the Companys ability to move forward with its operations and has negatively affected its ability to timely comply with our ongoing filing obligations with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Company does not have any significant or long term commitments. The Company is not currently subject to any litigation.

NOTE 17 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (continued)


Issuance of 8% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note, dated March 5, 2021 (continued)


The note is convertible into common shares of the Company at a price which is the lower of: (i) 80% of the lowest volume weighted average price in the five trading days prior to the date of the lenders notice of conversion and (ii) $4.25. The Company is subject to certain penalties if the shares are not issued within two business days of receiving the conversion notice. Pursuant to a Security Agreement between the Company and the Investor (the Security Agreement), the Company has granted to the Investor a security interest in its assets to secure repayment of the Notes. The Company must reserve an amount of shares equal to 500% of the total amount of shares issuable upon full conversion of the promissory note. The Company meets this requirement since it has 250,000,000 common shares authorized and as of April 14, 2021, 174,034,699 shares are available to be issued.


As additional consideration for the investment, the Company issued a Warrant to acquire up to an aggregate of 120,000 shares of the Companys common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 per share. The Warrant is exercisable by the Investor beginning on the Effective Date through the fifth year anniversary thereof. The Warrant fair value of $524,904 was calculated using the Black Scholes Model. The inputs for the model were: stock price, $4.66, exercise price, $5.00, time to expiration, 5 years, stock volatility, 169%, 5 Year Constant Maturity Treasury Rate, 0.382% and no dividends.


The Note has a BCF, which was valued, along with the warrants, on a relative fair value method. The warrant fair value was $369,671 (limited by the relative fair value calculation) and the BCF fair value was $488,788 for a total debt discount of $858,459. The exercise price was $4.25 per share which converts into 294,118 common shares. The common stock price at the valuation date was $4.66 per share, and the effective conversion price was calculated as $2.99, so that the BCF was calculated to be $1.67 per share valuing the BCF at $488,788.


Additional Stock Issuances


On January 6, 2021, the Company issued 14,493 common shares to SRAX, Inc. for payment of services, which include investor intelligence, investor relations and marketing.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE


None



ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


Controls and Procedures.


During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company has undergone operational and management changes, specifically with the sale of the discontinued operations and the acquisition of the new eVTOL aircraft in-process research and development and trademarks. In light of these changes, management has assessed its internal controls and procedures.


Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting


Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f). Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the 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 are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.


Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures


We carried out an evaluation as required by paragraph (b) of Rule 13a-15 and 15d-15 of the Exchange Act, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer (who are the same person), of the effectiveness of our disclosure, controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of December 31, 2020.


A material weakness can be defined as an insufficiency of internal controls that may result in a more than remote likelihood that a material misstatement will not be prevented, detected or corrected in a companys consolidated financial statements.


Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer /Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of December 31, 2020, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, based on the following deficiencies:


Weaknesses in Accounting and Finance Personnel: We have a small accounting staff and we do not have the robust employee resources and expertise needed to meet complex and intricate GAAP and SEC reporting requirements of a U.S. public company. Additionally, numerous adjustments and proposed adjustments have been noted by our auditors. This is deemed by management to be a material weakness in preparing consolidated financial statements.


We do not have written accounting policies and control procedures, and do not have sufficient staff to implement the related controls. Management had determined that this lack of written accounting policies and control procedures and the lack of the implantation of segregation of duties, represents a material weakness in our internal controls.




45



Internal control has as its core a basic tenant of segregation of duties. Due to our limited size and economic constraints, the Company is not able to segregate for control purposes various asset control and recording duties and functions to different employees. This lack of segregation of duties had been evaluated by management and has been deemed to be a material weakness in our internal control.


This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of the Companys independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Managements report was not subject to attestation by the Companys registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit the company to provide only managements report in this Annual Report.


Our management, including our chief executive officer/chief financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal control over financial reporting, or any system we design or implement in the future, will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control systems objectives will be met. 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.

2014 Stock Awards Plan

In November 2014, the board of directors of the Company approved the adoptions of a Stock Awards Plan. A total of 7,000,000 shares was authorized to be issued under the plan. For incentive stock options, at the grant date the stock options exercise price is required to be at least 110% of the fair value of the Companys common stock. The Plan permits the grants of common stock or options to purchase common stock. As plan administrator, the Board of Directors has sole discretion to set the price of the options. Further, the Board of Directors may amend or terminate the plan.


On March 14, 2018, the Company cancelled all 216,667 outstanding stock options under the 2014 Stock Awards Plan, with 100,000 of the stock options exchanged for two 10% Convertible Promissory Notes with a six month maturity, which were subsequently converted into common stock in September 2018. Consequently, there are 7,000,000 shares available for issuance at December 31, 2020 and 2019. There are no outstanding stock options at December 31, 2020 or 2019.

Limitation on Liability and Indemnification

We are a Nevada corporation. The Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS) provides that the articles of incorporation of a Nevada corporation may contain a provision eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its shareholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except that any such provision may not eliminate or limit the liability of a director (i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its shareholders, (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) acts specified in Section 78 (concerning unlawful distributions), or (iv) any transaction from which a director directly or indirectly derived an improper personal benefit. Our articles of incorporation contain a provision eliminating the personal liability of our directors or our shareholders for monetary damages to the fullest extent provided by the NRS.


The NRS provides that a Nevada corporation must indemnify a person who was wholly successful, on the merits or otherwise, in defense of any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, or investigative and whether formal or informal, in which he or she was a party because the person is or was a director, against reasonable expenses incurred by him or her in connection with the proceeding, unless such indemnity is limited by the corporation's articles of incorporation. Our articles of incorporation do not contain any such limitation.


The NRS provides that a Nevada corporation may indemnify a person made a party to a proceeding because the person is or was a director against any obligation incurred with respect to a proceeding to pay a judgment, settlement, penalty, fine (including an excise tax assessed with respect to an employee benefit plan) or reasonable expenses incurred in the proceeding if the person conducted himself or herself in good faith and the person reasonably believed, in the case of conduct in an official capacity with the corporation, that the person's conduct was in the corporation's best interests and, in all other cases, his or her conduct was at least not opposed to the corporation's best interests and, with respect to any criminal proceedings, the person had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.  Our articles of incorporation and bylaws allow for such indemnification. A corporation may not indemnify a director in connection with any proceeding by or in the right of the corporation in which the director was adjudged liable to the


50

corporation or, in connection with any other proceeding charging that the director derived an improper personal benefit, whether or not involving actions in an official capacity, in which proceeding the director was judged liable on the basis that he or she derived an improper personal benefit. Any indemnification permitted in connection with a proceeding by or in the right of the corporation is limited to reasonable expenses incurred in connection with such proceeding.


The NRS, unless otherwise provided in the articles of incorporation, a Nevada corporation may indemnify an officer, employee, fiduciary, or agent of the corporation to the same extent as a director and may indemnify such a person who is not a director to a greater extent, if not inconsistent with public policy and if provided for by its bylaws, general or specific action of its board of directors or shareholders, or contract. Our articles of incorporation provide for indemnification of directors, officers, employees, fiduciaries and agents of the Company to the full extent permitted by Nevada law.


Our articles of incorporation also provide that we may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director or officer of the Company or who is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer or agent of another enterprise against any liability asserted against him or her and incurred by him or her in any such capacity or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not we would have the power to indemnify him or her against such liability.



ITEM 12.   SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS 


The table below sets forth the beneficial ownership of our common stock, as of April 14, 2021, by:


All of our current directors and executive officers, individually; and 

All persons who beneficially own more than 5% of our outstanding common stock. 


The beneficial ownership of each person was calculated based on 8,448,380 shares of our common stock outstanding as of April 14, 2021. The SEC has defined beneficial ownership to mean more than ownership in the usual sense. For example, a person has beneficial ownership of a share not only if he owns it in the usual sense, but also if he has the power (solely or shared) to vote, sell or otherwise dispose of the share. Beneficial ownership also includes the number of shares that a person has the right to acquire within 60 days, pursuant to the exercise of options or warrants or the conversion of notes, debentures or other indebtedness, but excludes stock appreciation rights. Two or more persons might count as beneficial owners of the same share. The inclusion herein of any shares listed as beneficially owned does not constitute an admission of beneficial ownership. Each person named in the table has sole voting and investment power with respect to all of the shares of our common stock shown as beneficially owned by such person, except as otherwise set forth in the notes to the table. Unless otherwise noted, the address of the following persons listed below is c/o Astro Aerospace Ltd., 320 W. Main Street, Lewisville, TX 75057.

ITEM 13.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR


Transactions with Related Persons

MAAB, the parent of Astro has issued a Promissory Note, as amended, for monetary advances to the Company of up to $1,250,000, maturing on February 28, 2022. The Promissory Note has an interest charge of 10%, compounded monthly. Interest accrues on the principal amount or portion thereof which remains unpaid from time to time as well as any interest outstanding, from the date the principal amount is advanced until and including the date upon which the principal amount and all interest due under this promissory note shall be fully paid. The Company has accrued interest expense of $207,915 and $89,797 at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The accrued interest expense is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.


Under Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, an officer, director, or greater-than-10% shareholder of the Company must file a Form 4 reporting the acquisition or disposition of Companys equity securities with the Securities and Exchange Commission no later than the end of the second business day after the day the transaction occurred unless certain exceptions apply.  Transactions not reported on Form 4 must be reported on Form 5 within 45 days after the end of the Companys fiscal year.  Such persons must also file initial reports of ownership on Form 3 upon becoming an officer, director, or greater-than-10% shareholder.  Mr. Bruce Bent, the Companys Chief Executive Officer, is currently up to date in meeting these requirements and has notified the Company that he is now compliant.  On August 30, 2019, pursuant to Section 16(a), Mr. Bent disgorged short swing profits of $178,394 to the Company, which was recorded as miscellaneous income and a reduction of the debt owed to MAAB, the parent of the Company.


Promoters and Certain Control Persons

Except as indicated under the heading Transactions with Related Persons above, there have been no transactions since the beginning of our last fiscal year, or any currently proposed transaction in which we were or are to be a participant and the amount involved exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or one percent of the average of our total assets at year-end for the last three completed fiscal years.


Director Independence

Our Common Stock is currently quoted on the OTCQB, which does not impose specific standards relating to director independence or the makeup of committees with independent directors or provide definitions of independence. In accordance with the rules of the SEC, we determine the independence of our directors by reference to the rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market. In accordance with such rules, the Board has determined that we do not have any independent directors. There were no transactions, relationships or arrangements not disclosed under the caption Certain Relationships and Related Transactions of this report that were considered by the Board of Directors under the applicable independence definitions in determining that there are no independent directors.



ITEM 14.

PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING FEES AND SERVICES


Audit Fees

We have incurred fees and expenses from Hacker, Johnson & Smith PA of $56,000 and $52,500, respectively, for the 2020 and 2019 fiscal years.  Fees included work completed for our annual audit and for the review of our consolidated financial statements included in our Forms 10-Q and 10-K. The fees in 2020 and 2019 included $3,000 related to Form 10K.  The fees for 2020 and 2019 included $6,000 and $5,000, respectively, for each quarterly review, $5,000 for Form S-1.


52


Tax Fees

We have incurred fees of $4,500 and $4,000, respectively, for the 2020 and 2019 fiscal years for professional services rendered for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning.


All Other Fees

The Board of Directors, acting as the Audit Committee considered whether, and determined that, the auditor's provision of non-audit services was compatible with maintaining the auditor's independence. All of the services described above for fiscal years 2020 and 2019 were approved by the Board of Directors pursuant to its policies and procedures. We intend to continue using Hacker, Johnson & Smith PA solely for audit and audit-related services, tax consultation and tax compliance services, and, as needed, for due diligence in acquisitions.
