Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements
June 30, 2020
NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Organization and Business
Cruzani, Inc. (“Cruzani” or the “Company”) is a franchise development company that builds and represents popular franchise concepts, and other related businesses, throughout the United States as well as international markets. The Company was originally formed as a limited liability company on February 5, 1999 under the name The Powerhouse, L.L.C. pursuant to the laws of the State of Oklahoma. On November 9, 2006, Powerhouse Productions, L.L.C. filed Articles of Conversion changing the entity from a limited liability company to a corporation under the name Harcom Productions, Inc. On January 25, 2010, Articles of Merger were filed with the State of Oklahoma merging U.S. Highland, Inc., an Oklahoma corporation into Harcom Productions, Inc. and the name of the corporation was changed to US Highland, Inc. US Highland, Inc. was a recreational power sports Original Equipment Manufacturer (“OEM”), developing motorcycles, quads, single cylinder engines, and v-twin engines under its own brand and for other OEMs. During 2017, the Company exited the recreational power sports OEM and leisure activity vehicles markets.
On June 29, 2018, the Company filed Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation with the State of Nevada to change its name to Cruzani, Inc.
On June 30, 2018, Supreme Sweets Acquisition Corp. (n/k/a Oventa, Inc.), a subsidiary of the Company, and the Company (collectively, the “Company”) entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) with Supreme Sweets Inc. and 2498411 Ontario, Inc., as sellers (collectively, the “Seller”), pursuant to which in exchange for CAD $200,000 and a twenty percent (20%) interest in Oventa, Inc., the Company agreed to acquire the trade secret assets of Seller upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement. A second closing occurred on July 31, 2018, pursuant to which the Company acquired the furniture, fixtures and equipment of Seller in exchange for CAD $100,000. Seller is engaged in the business of preparing delicious snacks, pastries and baked goods with high quality ingredients for exceptional taste, including low calorie and gluten-free alternatives. The Asset Purchase Agreement included a provision, pursuant to which the Company could unwind the transaction if certain milestones were not achieved. The milestones contemplated in the Asset Purchase Agreement were not met, and accordingly, on February 7, 2019, effective as of December 31, 2018, the Company terminated the Asset Purchase Agreement with Supreme Sweets Inc. and 2498411 Ontario, Inc, by written notice to the Seller, and the Company unwound the transaction. The $339,813 of capital injected into Oventa, Inc was written off as uncollectable as of June 30, 2020.
On September 27, 2018, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) with Sandrea Gibson, as seller (the “Seller”), and Recipe Food Co., as the target (the “Target”), pursuant to which in exchange for up to CAD $237,000, the Company agreed to acquire 80% of the issued and outstanding stock of the Target from the Seller upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement. There were difficulties integrating the Target into the Company group, which forced the Company to cease injecting additional capital into the Target and recognize a loss of $102,552 for amounts that had already been loaned to the Target.
On July 8, 2019, Mr. Dickson entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (“Purchase Agreement”) with Conrad Huss to sell 5,000,000 shares of Series C Preferred and 5,000 shares of Series B preferred Stock held by Mr. Dickson. As a result, Mr. Huss acquired the right to vote 99.06 % of the voting control of the Company. The Series B Preferred Stock is also convertible into common stock which, in the aggregate, would represent up to .01% of the outstanding common stock after the conversion. The Series B Preferred Stock is also convertible into common stock which, in the aggregate, would represent up to 99.05% of the outstanding common stock after the conversion.
On July 8, 2019, Everett Dickson, who had been the sole officer of the Company, resigned as an officer of the Company, and Conrad Huss was appointed the Interim President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Mr. Huss is the sole beneficial owner of 5,000,000 and 5,000 shares of Series B and C Preferred Stocks, respectively. Mr. Dickson also resigned as a director of the Company, effective on July 8th, 2019. Mr. Dickson’s resignation was not the result of any disagreement with the management of the Company.

Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). These unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and footnotes for the year ended December 31, 2019 included on the Company’s Form 10-K. The results of the six months ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2020.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position as of June 30, 2020 and the results of operations and cash flows presented herein have been included in the financial statements. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for the full year.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
We maintain our cash in bank deposit accounts, the balances of which at times may exceed federally insured limits. We continually monitor our banking relationships and consequently have not experienced any losses in our accounts. We believe we are not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year financial information to conform to the presentation used in the financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2020. There is no effect on the accumulated deficit as the result of these reclassifications.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated condensed financial statements include the accounts of the Company. All financial information has been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Fair value of financial instruments
The Company follows paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments and paragraph 820-10-35-37 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to measure the fair value of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three (3) broad levels. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The three (3) levels of fair value hierarchy defined by Paragraph 820-10-35-37 are described below:
Level 1: | Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. |
Level 2: | Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. |
Level 3: | Pricing inputs that are generally unobservable inputs and not corroborated by market data. |
8
The carrying amount of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, prepaid expenses and accrued expenses approximate their fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments. The Company’s notes payable approximates the fair value of such instruments based upon management’s best estimate of interest rates that would be available to the Company for similar financial arrangements at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles which contemplate continuation of the Company on a going-concern basis. The going concern basis assumes that assets are realized, and liabilities are extinguished in the ordinary course of business at amounts disclosed in the consolidated financial statements. The Company has incurred recurring losses from operations and has an accumulated deficit of $80,038,298. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern depends upon its ability to obtain adequate funding to support its operations through continuing investments of debt and/or equity by qualified investors/creditors, internally generated working capital and monetization of intellectual property assets. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. Management is currently pursuing a business strategy which includes raising the necessary funds to finance the Company’s development and marketing efforts.
NOTE 3 – LOANS PAYABLE
The loan payable balances are as follows:
Rate | June 30, 2020 | December 31, 2019 | ||||||||
Loan 1 | 1% | $ | 27,000 | $ | 27,000 | |||||
Loan 2 | 1% | 3,000 | 3,000 | |||||||

NOTE 5 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES
The embedded conversion options of the Company’s convertible debentures summarized in Note 4, and its convertible preferred Series E stock. contain conversion features that qualify for embedded derivative classification. The fair value of these liabilities is re-measured at the end of every reporting period and the change in fair value is reported in the statement of operations as a gain or loss on derivative financial instruments.
The table below sets forth a summary of changes in the fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial liabilities:
Balance at December 31, 2019 | $ | 472,605 | ||
Derivative liability incurred on new issuances | 56,101 | |||
Change in fair value of derivative liability | 95,169 | |||
Balance at June 30, 2020 | $ | 623,875 |
The Company uses Level 3 inputs for its valuation methodology for its conversion option liabilities as their fair values were determined by using the Binomial option pricing model based on various assumptions. The model incorporates the price of a share of the Company’s common stock (as quoted on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board), volatility, risk free rate, dividend rate and estimated life. Significant changes in any of these inputs in isolation would result in a significant change in the fair value measurement. As, required, these are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The following table shows the assumptions used in the calculations of its derivatives:
Expected Volatility | Risk-free Interest Rate | Expected Dividend Yield | Expected Life (in years) | |||||||||
At December 31, 2019 | 291.74 | % | 2.45 | % | 0 | % | 0.25 – 0.50 | |||||
At June 30, 2020 | 330.14 | % | .62 | % | 0 | % | 0.25 – 0.50 |

Going Concern
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles which contemplate continuation of the Company on a going-concern basis. The going concern basis assumes that assets are realized, and liabilities are extinguished in the ordinary course of business at amounts disclosed in the consolidated financial statements. The Company has incurred recurring losses from operations and has an accumulated deficit of $80,038,298. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern depends upon its ability to obtain adequate funding to support its operations through continuing investments of debt and/or equity by qualified investors/creditors, internally generated working capital and monetization of intellectual property assets. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. Management is currently pursuing a business strategy which includes raising the necessary funds to finance the Company’s development and marketing efforts.
Critical Accounting Estimates and Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Note 1 to the Financial Statements describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Financial Statements. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, contingencies and taxes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The following critical accounting policies are impacted significantly by judgments, assumptions, and estimates used in the preparation of the Financial Statements.
We are subject to various loss contingencies arising in the ordinary course of business. We consider the likelihood of loss or impairment of an asset or the incurrence of a liability, as well as our ability to reasonably estimate the amount of loss in determining loss contingencies. An estimated loss contingency is accrued when management concludes that it is probable that an asset has been impaired or a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. We regularly evaluate current information available to us to determine whether such accruals should be adjusted.
We recognize deferred tax assets (future tax benefits) and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the book carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. The deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the expected future tax return consequences of those differences, which are expected to be either deductible or taxable when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Future tax benefits have been fully offset by a 100% valuation allowance as management is unable to determine that it is more likely than not that this deferred tax asset will be realized.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and the Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources and would be considered material to investors.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
Not applicable to smaller reporting companies.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) that are designed to be effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, they concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2020.
The following aspects of the Company were noted as potential material weaknesses:
1. | We do not have written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures. Written documentation of key internal controls over financial reporting is a requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act which is applicable to us for the period ended June 30, 2020. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have written documentation of our internal controls and procedures on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness. |
2. | We do not have sufficient resources in our accounting function, which restricts the Company’s ability to gather, analyze and properly review information related to financial reporting in a timely manner. As a result, as of the date of filing, we have not completed our ASC 606 implementation process and, thus, cannot disclose the quantitative impact of adoption on our financial statements. In addition, due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible. However, to the extent possible, the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate individuals. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have segregation of duties on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness. |
3. | We have inadequate controls to ensure that information necessary to properly record transactions is adequately communicated on a timely basis from non-financial personnel to those responsible for financial reporting. Management evaluated the impact of the lack of timely communication between non–financial personnel and financial personnel on our assessment of our reporting controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency represented a material weakness. |
4. | Certain control procedures were unable to be verified due to performance not being sufficiently documented. As an example, some procedures requiring review of certain reports could not be verified due to there being no written documentation of such review. Management evaluated the impact of its failure to maintain proper documentation of the review process on its assessment of its reporting controls and procedures and has concluded deficiencies represented a material weakness. |
In designing and evaluating disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance of achieving the desired objectives. Also, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.
Changes in Internal Controls
Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that no change occurred in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2020, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.
17
From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. Litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business.
On February 13, 2017, Baum Glass & Jayne PLLC (“Plaintiff”) obtained a default judgment against the Company in the amount of $27,083.74. Plaintiff has not attempted enforced collection. The amount was included in accounts payable as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2018. The management is having discussions with respect to the timing and structure of the settlement.
On June 20, 2018, GW Holdings Group, Inc. (“GW”) filed a lawsuit against the Company, in which GW alleges that the Company breached two Stock Purchase Agreements that GW entered into with the Company. On July 11, 2018, the Company filed a motion to dismiss which was granted by the court on March 13, 2019. A notice of appeal filed by GW is pending. As of June 30, 2020, the Company has a note payable balance of $60,750 due to GW. Since GW’s original complaint has been dismissed and no further action has been taken by the court, no additional liability has been accrued. Managements view is that the amount to settle this will not materially exceed the balance due and even be slightly less.
On September 21, 2018, Pro Drive Outboards, LLC (“Pro-Drive”) filed a lawsuit against the Company, in which Pro-Drive alleges that the Company breached a contract that Pro-Drive entered into with the Company. Pro-Drive is seeking damages in excess of $500,000. The Company has filed an answer, including the defenses of defective service of process and statute of limitations and a motion to dismiss. The judge granted a motion to dismiss, and the plaintiff’s deadline to appeal has passed, thus concluding the matter.
