Notes to Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements

Note 1 - Business Organization and Nature of Operations

BTCS Inc. (formerly Bitcoin Shop, Inc.), a Nevada corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated in 2008. In February 2014, the Company entered the business of hosting an online ecommerce marketplace where consumers can purchase merchandise using Digital Assets, including bitcoin and is currently focused on blockchain and digital currency ecosystems. In January 2015, the Company began a rebranding campaign using its BTCS.COM domain (shorthand for Blockchain Technology Consumer Solutions) to better reflect its broadened strategy. The Company released its new website which included broader information on its strategy. In late 2014 we shifted our focus towards our transaction verification service business, also known as bitcoin mining, though in mid-2016 we ceased our transaction verification services operation at our North Carolina facility due to capital constraints.

Subject to additional financing, the Company plans to acquire additional Digital Assets to provide investors with indirect ownership of Digital Assets that are not securities, such as bitcoin and ether. The Company intends to acquire Digital Assets through open market purchases. Additionally, the Company may acquire Digital Assets by resuming its transaction verification services business through outsourced data centers and earning rewards in Digital Assets by securing their respective blockchains. We are not limiting our assets to a single type of Digital Asset and may purchase a variety of Digital Assets that appear to benefit our investors, subject to the certain limitations regarding Digital Securities. The Company is also seeking to acquire controlling interests in businesses in the blockchain industry.

The Company has not participated in any initial coin offerings as it believes most of the offerings entail the offering of Digital Securities and require registration under the Securities Act and under state securities laws or can only be sold to accredited investors in the United States. Since about July 2017, initial coin offerings using Digital Securities have been (or should be) limited to accredited investors. Because we cannot qualify as an accredited investor, we do not intend to acquire coins in initial coin offerings or from purchasers in such offerings. Further, the Company does not intend to participate in registered or unregistered initial coin offerings. The Company will carefully review its purchases of Digital Securities to avoid violating the 1940 Act and seek to reduce potential liabilities under the federal securities laws.

Digital asset blockchains are typically maintained by a network of participants which run servers which secure their blockchain.

The market is rapidly evolving and there can be no assurances that we will be competitive with industry participants that have or may have greater resources than us.

Amendment to Articles of Incorporation

On April 5, 2019, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation (the “Amendment”) with the Nevada Secretary of State to effect a one-for 30 reverse split of the Company’s class of common stock. The Amendment took effect on April 9, 2019. No fractional shares were or will be issued or distributed as a result of the Amendment. Numbers of shares of the Company’s preferred stock were not affected by the Reverse Stock Split; however, the conversion ratios have been adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split. The financial statements have been retroactively restated to reflect the reverse stock split.

Note 2 - Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, since they are interim statements, the accompanying condensed financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for annual financial statements, but in the opinion of the Company’s management, reflect all adjustments consisting of normal, recurring adjustments, that are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The unaudited condensed financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Note 3 - Liquidity, Financial Condition and Management’s Plans

The Company has commenced its planned operations but has limited operating activities to date. The Company has financed its operations since inception using proceeds received from capital contributions made by its officers and proceeds in financing transactions.

Notwithstanding, the Company has limited revenues, limited capital resources and is subject to all of the risks and uncertainties that are typical of an early stage enterprise. Significant uncertainties include, among others, whether the Company will be able to raise the capital it needs to finance its longer-term operations and whether such operations, if launched, will enable the Company to sustain operations as a profitable enterprise.

BTCS Inc. and Subsidiary

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements

Our working capital needs are influenced by our level of operations, and generally decrease with higher levels of revenue. The Company used approximately $0.4 million of cash in its operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The Company incurred $0.6 million net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The Company had cash of approximately $0.6 million and a working capital of approximately $91,000 at June 30, 2019. The Company expects to incur losses into the foreseeable future as it undertakes its efforts to execute its business plans.

The Company will require significant additional capital to sustain its short-term operations and make the investments it needs to execute its longer-term business plan. The Company’s existing liquidity is not sufficient to fund its operations and anticipated capital expenditures for the foreseeable future. The Company is currently seeking to obtain additional equity financing, primarily through the Purchase Agreement with Cavalry, however there are currently no other commitments of debt or equity in place for further financing nor is there any assurance that such financing will be available to the Company on favorable terms, if at all.

Because of recurring operating losses, net operating cash flow deficits, and an accumulated deficit, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the issuance of the financial statements. The financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has not made adjustments to the accompanying financial statements to reflect the potential effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The Company continues to incur ongoing administrative and other operating expenses, including public company expenses, in excess of revenues. While the Company continues to implement its business strategy, it intends to finance its activities by:

Note 4 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies to those previously disclosed in the 2018 Annual Report.

Use of Estimates

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). This requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. The Company’s significant estimates and assumptions include the recoverability and useful lives of long-lived assets, stock-based compensation, the valuation of derivative liabilities, and the valuation allowance related to the Company’s deferred tax assets. Certain of the Company’s estimates, including the carrying amount of the intangible assets, if any, could be affected by external conditions, including those unique to the Company and general economic conditions. It is reasonably possible that these external factors could have an effect on the Company’s estimates and could cause actual results to differ from those estimates and assumptions.

Net Loss per Share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net income or loss applicable to common shares by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the Company’s convertible preferred stock and warrants. Diluted loss per share excludes the shares issuable upon the conversion of preferred stock and warrants from the calculation of net loss per share if their effect would be anti-dilutive.

The following financial instruments were not included in the diluted loss per share calculation as of June 30, 2019 and 2018 because their effect was anti-dilutive:

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2018, the SEC adopted the final rule under SEC Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification, amending certain disclosure requirements that were redundant, duplicative, overlapping, outdated or superseded. In addition, the amendments expanded the disclosure requirements on the analysis of stockholders’ equity for interim financial statements. Under the amendments, an analysis of changes in each caption of stockholders’ equity presented in the balance sheet must be provided in a note or separate statement. The analysis should present a reconciliation of the beginning balance to the ending balance of each period for which a statement of comprehensive income is required to be filed. This final rule was effective November 5, 2018. The implementation of this rule did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed financial position, results of operations, equity or cash flows.

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.

Note 5 - Note Payable

On December 18, 2018, the Company issued a $200,000 promissory note to one institutional investor (the “Promissory Note”). The Promissory Note is due on September 18, 2019 and bears interest at a rate of 12%. In the event of default, the Promissory Note bears interest at a rate of 20%.

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company made no payment in connection with this Promissory Note and accrued interest expense of approximately $12,000. As of June 30, 2019, the principal balance of the Promissory Note was $200,000 and accrued interest on the note payable amounted to approximately $13,000.

Note 6 - Stockholders’ Equity

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company issued 725,564 shares of Common Stock for the cash exercise of Series A Warrants, Additional Warrants, and Bonus Warrants resulting in aggregate proceeds of $200,000 to the Company.

On April 18, 2019, the Company issued 16,860 shares of Common Stock in connection with the one-for 30 reverse split resulting from the rounding up of fractional shares of Common Stock to the whole shares of Common Stock.

Purchase Agreement

On May 13, 2019, the Company entered into an equity line purchase agreement with Cavalry Fund I LP (“Cavalry”) (the “Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which Cavalry agreed to purchase from the Company, at Company’s sole discretion, up to $10,000,000 of common stock (subject to certain limitations) from time to time over a 36-month period. In consideration for entering into the $10 million Purchase Agreement, the Company issued to Cavalry 333,334 shares of common stock as a commitment fee and will issue up to 583,334 shares of common stock pro rata as Cavalry purchases additional shares.

Concurrently with the execution of the Purchase Agreement on May 13, 2019, the Company and Cavalry also entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company agreed, among other things, to file a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), no later than May 23, 2019 to register for resale by Cavalry under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”), the shares of common stock that the Company may elect to issue and sell to Cavalry from time to time under the Purchase Agreement. The Registration Rights Agreement provides that in the event the Company is unable to register sufficient shares under the Registration Statement, the Company will be required to file additional registration statements such that sufficient registered shares are available for issuance and sale to Cavalry under the Purchase Agreement.

The Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-1 seeking to register 4,374,741 shares. The Registration Statement was declared effective by the SEC on May 28, 2019. Provided the Registration Statement remains current and effective and the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement are satisfied, the Company may, from time to time and at its sole discretion, direct Cavalry to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock during trading hours (“Intraday Puts”) and after trading hours until 7 p.m. New York time (“Aftermarket Puts”) (either an Intraday Put or an Aftermarket Put may be referred to as a “Put”). The Company may make multiple Puts each day subject to delivery of the shares associated with prior Puts.

The number of shares that may be sold under an Intraday Put shall be equal to the total daily trading dollar volume (“Daily Trading Dollar Volume”) for the trading day prior to the applicable Put date, divided by the Intraday Purchase Price (such shares being the “Intraday Put Share Limit”). The “Intraday Purchase Price” means the lower of: (i) 94% of the lowest sale price on the trading day prior to the applicable Put date, and (ii) 94% of the arithmetic average of the three lowest closing prices for the Company’s common stock during the 12 consecutive trading days ending on the Trading Day immediately preceding such Put date.

BTCS Inc. and Subsidiary

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements

The number of shares that may be sold under an Aftermarket Put shall be equal to the Daily Trading Dollar Volume, divided by the Aftermarket Put Price (such shares being the “Aftermarket Put Share Limit”). The “Aftermarket Put Price” means: the lower of: (i) the lowest Sale Price on the applicable Put date, and (ii) the arithmetic average of the three lowest closing prices for the Company’s common stock during the 12 consecutive trading days ending on the trading day immediately preceding such Put date.

Upon mutual agreement of Cavalry and the Company and subject to written confirmation by Cavalry that such agreement will not result in violation of the 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation, the Company may increase the Intraday Put Share Limit or the Aftermarket Put Share Limit, as applicable, for any Put to include an amount equal to $2,000,000 in Put shares at the applicable Purchase Price, in each case in addition to the applicable Intraday Put Share Limit or Aftermarket Put Share Limit. In all instances, the Company may not sell shares of its common stock to Cavalry under the Purchase Agreement if it would result in Cavalry beneficially owning more than 4.99% of the Company’s common stock or if the closing price the trading day immediately preceding the Put date is below $0.005.

As of June 30, 2019, the Company sold a total of 2,131,461 shares of common stock under the Purchase Agreement for total proceeds of $685,006, net of cost of $10,000.

Note 7 - Subsequent Events

From June 30, 2019 through July 10, 2019, the Company sold a total of 1,092,308 shares of common stock under the Purchase Agreement for total proceeds of $318,105.

ITEM 2 Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Certain statements in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Words such as may, will, should, would, anticipates, expects, intends, plans, believes, seeks, estimates and similar expressions identify such forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which reflect management’s analysis only as of the date hereof. We assume no obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect actual results or changes in factors or assumptions affecting forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those discussed in the Risk Factors contained in our final Prospectus filed with the SEC dated May 28, 2019 and filed with the SEC on June 4, 2019.

Overview

Subject to additional financing, the Company plans to acquire additional Digital Assets to provide investors with indirect ownership of Digital Assets that are not securities, such as bitcoin and ether. The Company intends to acquire Digital Assets through open market purchases. Additionally, the Company may acquire Digital Assets by resuming its transaction verification services business through outsourced data centers and earning rewards in Digital Assets by securing their respective blockchains. We are not limiting our assets to a single type of Digital Asset and may purchase a variety of Digital Assets that appear to benefit our investors, subject to the limitations contained within this report regarding Digital Securities. The Company is also seeking to acquire controlling interests in businesses in the blockchain industry as further described in this report.

The Company has not participated in any initial coin offerings as it believes most of the offerings entail the offering of Digital Securities and require registration under the Securities Act and under state securities laws or can only be sold to accredited investors in the United States. Since about July 2017, initial coin offerings using Digital Securities have been (or should be) limited to accredited investors. Because we cannot qualify as an accredited investor, we do not intend to acquire coins in initial coin offerings or from purchasers in such offerings. Further, the Company does not intend to participate in registered or unregistered initial coin offerings. The Company will carefully review its purchases of Digital Securities to avoid violating the 1940 Act and seek to reduce potential liabilities under the federal securities laws.

Digital asset blockchains are typically maintained by a network of participants which run servers which secure their blockchain. The market is rapidly evolving and there can be no assurances that we will be competitive with industry participants that have or may have greater resources than us.

Blockchain Technology and Digital Asset Initiatives

We are also focused on Digital Assets and blockchain technologies. Subject to additional financing, we plan to continue to evaluate other strategic opportunities including acquiring controlling interests in business in this rapidly evolving sector in an effort to enhance shareholder value.

Even though the prices of Digital Assets have fallen substantially and there remains some regulatory uncertainty, we believe that businesses using blockchain technology and those involved with Digital Assets such as bitcoin and ether, offer upside opportunity and are the types of opportunities that we may pursue.

Our current framework or criteria is to seek and evaluate acquisition targets in the blockchain and Digital Asset sector which (i) align with our business model of acquiring Digital Assets or acquiring a controlling interest in one or more blockchain technology related business ventures, and (ii) have sufficient capital to provide working capital and cover public company expenses. As disclosed in this report we have limited cash, and accordingly as a critical framework element are seeking acquisition targets with sufficient capital which may help us sustain our operations without having us rely on toxic funding structures. Our acquisition activities are spearheaded by Charles Allen, our Chief Executive Officer who regularly communicates with Mr. David Garrity, one of our independent directors who is also seeking acquisition targets.

Transaction Verification Service Business (digital asset mining e.g. bitcoin, Suspended)

We believe that with additional funding we may be able to resume our transaction verification services business (Digital Asset mining e.g. bitcoin) and believe this may provide revenue growth. However, given the current network difficulties and price levels to mine both ethereum and bitcoin we do not believe mining offers a positive return on investment at present. We plan to monitor the blockchain networks and subject to additional funding re-enter the mining business when we believe a positive return on investment is achievable. If we are successful in resuming our transaction verification services business, we anticipate utilizing outsourced data centers and may diversify operations by securing other blockchains in addition to bitcoins. If we resume our mining operations, we do not intend to actively trade the Digital Assets but rather hold them for our own account and sell them for U.S. dollars or other currencies including virtual currencies.

Transaction verification entails running ASIC (application-specific integrated circuit) servers or other specialized servers which solve a set of prescribed complex mathematical calculations in order to add a block to a blockchain and thereby confirm Digital Asset transactions. A party which is successful in adding a block to the blockchain, is awarded a fixed number of Digital Assets for our effort.

Going Concern

Because of recurring operating losses, net operating cash flow deficits, and an accumulated deficit, our independent auditors have indicated in their report on our December 31, 2018 financial statements that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

The continuation of our business is dependent upon us raising additional financial support. The issuance of additional equity or convertible debt securities by us could result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments.

We continue to incur ongoing administrative and other expenses, including public company expenses, in excess of revenue and capital raises. While we continue to implement our business strategy, we intend to finance our activities through:

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2019 and 2018

The following table reflects our operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018:

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 were approximately $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively. The slight increase in operating expenses over the prior year mostly relates to increases in general and administrative expenses as a result of salary increases to our executed management team.

Other (Expense) Income

Other expense for the three months ended June 30, 2019 was $6,000 as compared to other income for the three months ended June 30, 2018 of approximately $19,000. The decrease in other income over the prior year primarily relates to decrease in realized gain on sale of digital currencies and an increase in interest expense.

Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2019 and 2018

The following table reflects our operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018:

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 were approximately $0.6 million and $0.5 million, respectively. The slight increase in operating expenses over the prior year mostly relates to increases in general and administrative expenses as a result of salary increases to our executed management team.

Other (Expense) Income

Other expense for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $12,000 as compared to other income for the six months ended June 30, 2018 of approximately $111,000. The decrease in other income over the prior year primarily relates to decrease in realized gain on sale of digital currencies and an increase in interest expense.

Net loss attributable to common stockholders

We incurred $96,000 and $0 of deemed dividend related to reduction of warrant strike price during the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net Cash from Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities was approximately $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was primarily driven by a $0.6 million net loss and partially offset by changes in operating assets and liabilities of $0.2 million.

Net cash used in operating activities was approximately $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018. Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was primarily driven by a $0.4 million net loss and $0.1 million realized gain on sale of digital currencies, and partially offset by proceeds from sale of digital currencies of $0.2 million.

Net Cash from Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $0 for the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was approximately $2,600 for purchase of property and equipment.

Net Cash from Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was approximately $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019, including $0.2 million from exercise of warrants and $0.7 million from selling a total of 2,131,461 shares of common stock under the Purchase Agreement.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $0 for the six months ended June 30, 2018.

Liquidity

On June 30, 2019, we had current assets of approximately $0.6 million and current liabilities of approximately $0.5 million, rendering a working capital of approximately $91,000.

Our working capital needs are influenced by our level of operations, and generally decrease with higher levels of revenue. The Company used approximately $0.4 million of cash in its operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The Company incurred a $0.6 million net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The Company had cash of approximately $0.6 million and working capital of approximately $91,000 at June 30, 2019. The Company expects to incur losses into the foreseeable future as it undertakes its efforts to execute its business plans.

We will require significant additional capital to sustain short-term operations and make the investments needed to execute our longer-term business plan. Our existing liquidity is not sufficient to fund operations and anticipated capital expenditures for the foreseeable future, and we do not have sufficient cash resources to support our current operations for the next 12 months, and will need additional funding, whether through our $10 million Purchase Agreement with Cavalry or other sources, to resume revenue generating activities. If we attempt to obtain additional debt or equity financing, we cannot provide assurance that such financing will be available to us on favorable terms, if at all.

Because of recurring operating losses, net operating cash flow deficits, and an accumulated deficit, there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern. We have not made adjustments to the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements to reflect the potential effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or liabilities should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

We continue to incur ongoing administrative and other expenses, including public company expenses, primarily accounting and legal fees, in excess of corresponding (non-financing related) revenue. While we continue to implement the business strategy, we intend to finance our activities through:

Off Balance Sheet Transactions

We are not a party to any off-balance sheet transactions. We have no guarantees or obligations other than those which arise out of normal business operations.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This report contains forward-looking statements including our liquidity and future business plans. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “seeks,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects” and similar references to future periods.

Forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations and assumptions regarding our business, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Our actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. We caution you therefore against relying on any of these forward-looking statements. They are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees or assurances of future performance. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements are contained in our filings with the SEC, including our final prospectus dated May 28, 2019. Any forward-looking statement made by us speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by law.

ITEM 3 Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Not applicable.

ITEM 4 Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We conducted an evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, who is also our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of June 30, 2019 to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, including to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer concluded that as of June 30, 2019, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting:

On September 17, 2018, the Board of Directors of the Company concluded that due to ineffective controls we failed to follow GAAP in accounting for our digital assets. This failure arose from a material weakness which required us to restate our financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2018 as well as two other periods.

Remediation Plan

When we have sufficient capital resources, we intend to hire additional accounting staff, and operations and administrative executives and remediate each of the weaknesses in our disclosure controls and internal control over financial reporting.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
