Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Daniels Corporate Advisory Company, Inc. (“Daniels” or the Company) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 2, 2002. The Company creates and implements corporate strategy alternatives for mini-cap public and private companies.

The Company formed Payless Truckers, Inc. (“Payless”), a wholly-owned subsidiary which was incorporated in the State of Nevada, on April 11, 2018. Payless is a trucking company whose principal business is to acquire, refurbish, add location electronics, advertise and sell or lease commercial vehicles to long haul drivers.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The Company has prepared the accompanying consolidated financial statements in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). The Company believes these consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring adjustments) that are necessary for a fair presentation of our consolidated financial position and consolidated results of operations for the periods presented.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP 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.

Risk and Uncertainties

The Company’s future results of operations and financial condition will be impacted by the following factors, among others: its lack of capital resources, dependence on third-party management to operate the companies in which it invests and dependence on the successful development and marketing of any new products in new and existing markets. Generally, the Company is unable to predict the future status of these areas of risk and uncertainty. However, negative trends or conditions in these areas could have an adverse effect on its business.

Interim Financial Statements

These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included and such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2020 and notes thereto and other pertinent information contained in our Form 10-K the Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 24, 2021. The results of operations for the three months ended February 28, 2021, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year ending November 30, 2021.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains its cash balances with a high-credit-quality financial institution. At times, such cash may be in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation-insured limit of $250,000. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts, and management believes the Company is not exposed to any significant credit risk on its cash and cash equivalents.

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable are customer obligations due under normal trade terms which are recorded at net realizable value. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on management’s assessment of the collectability of trade receivables. A considerable amount of judgment is required in assessing the amount of the allowance. The Company makes judgments about the creditworthiness of each customer based on ongoing credit evaluations and monitors current economic trends that might impact the level of credit losses in the future. If the financial condition of the customers were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability to make payments, a specific allowance will be required.

Recovery of bad debt amounts previously written off is recorded as a reduction of bad debt expense in the period the payment is collected. If the Company’s actual collection experience changes, revisions to its allowance may be required. After all attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written off against the allowance.

Inventory

Inventory consists of well-maintained, class 8 heavy duty trucks primarily acquired at auction. Inventory is valued at the lower of cost (specific identification method) or net realizable value. An allowance for potential non-saleable inventory due to movement, current conditions or obsolescence is based upon a review of inventory quantities, past history and expected future usage. The Company believes that no write-down for slow moving or obsolete inventory is necessary as of February 28, 2021.

Convertible Instruments

The Company evaluates and account for conversion options embedded in convertible instruments in accordance with ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging Activities”.

Applicable GAAP requires companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as free-standing derivative financial instruments according to certain criteria. The criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under other GAAP with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument.

The Company accounts for convertible instruments (when it has been determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments) by recording, when necessary, discounts to convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. Debt discounts under these arrangements are amortized over the term of the related debt to their stated date of redemption.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) introduced a framework for measuring fair value and expanded required disclosure about fair value measurements of assets and liabilities. The Company adopted the standard for those financial assets and liabilities as of the beginning of the 2008 fiscal year and the impact of adoption was not significant. FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (ASC 820) defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. These financial instruments include accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, notes payable, notes payable to related parties, related parties payable and derivative liabilities. The Company has also applied ASC 820 for all non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. The adoption of ASC 820 for non-financial assets and liabilities did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

ASC Topic 220 (SFAS No. 130) establishes standards for reporting comprehensive income (loss) and its components. Comprehensive income (loss) is defined as the change in equity during a period from transactions and other events from non-owner sources.

Other-Than-Temporary Impairment

All of our non-marketable and other investments are subject to a periodic impairment review. Investments are considered to be impaired when a decline in fair value is judged to be other-than-temporary.

When events or changes in circumstances indicate that long-lived assets other than goodwill may be impaired, an evaluation is performed to determine if a write-down to fair value is required. When an asset is classified as held for sale, the asset’s book value is evaluated and adjusted to the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. In addition, depreciation and amortization ceases while it is classified as held for sale.

The indicators that we use to identify those events and circumstances include:

Revenue and Cost Recognition

We recognize revenue when we satisfy performance obligations by the transfer of control of products or services to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those products or services. We recognize revenue from class 8 heavy duty truck sales to customers when we satisfy our performance obligation, at a point in time, when title to the truck is transferred to the customer and collection of cash is certain. Delivery or shipping charges billed to customers, if applicable, are included in product sales and the related shipping costs are included in cost of goods sold. We also recognize revenue from the rental of class 8 heavy-duty trucks to customers. Revenue from these truck rental agreements is recognized based upon the passage of time over the term of the arrangement once control of the underlying asset has been transferred to the customer. The arrangements require weekly payments, and the customer may cancel the agreement at any time by notifying the Company in writing at least 30 days before such termination.

Revenue is recognized and related accounts receivable is recorded when the Company has transferred a good or service to a customer and our right to receive consideration is unconditional through the completion of our performance obligation. We had accounts receivable totaling $869 and $2,903 as of February 28, 2021 and November 30, 2020, respectively.

Right of Use Assets and Lease Liabilities

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases” (ASC 842). The standard requires lessees to recognize almost all leases on the balance sheet as a Right-of-Use (“ROU”) asset and a lease liability and requires leases to be classified as either an operating or a finance type lease. The standard excludes leases of intangible assets or inventory. The standard became effective for the Company beginning December 1, 2018. The Company adopted ASC 842 using the modified retrospective approach, by applying the new standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application. Results and disclosure requirements for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2019 are presented under ASC 842, while prior period amounts have not been adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historical accounting under ASC 840. The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the standard, which also allowed the Company to carry forward historical lease classifications. The Company also elected the practical expedient related to treating lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for all equipment leases as well as electing a policy exclusion permitting leases with an original lease term of less than one year to be excluded from the ROU assets and lease liabilities.

Under ASC 842, the Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Right-of-Use assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of remaining lease payments over the lease term. For this purpose, the Company considers only payments that are fixed and determinable at the time of commencement. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company estimated the incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments. The ROU asset also includes any lease payments made prior to commencement and is recorded net of any lease incentives received. The Company lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise such options.

Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. The adoption did not impact the Company’s beginning retained earnings, or prior year consolidated statements of income and statements of cash flows.

Vehicles and Equipment, Net

Vehicles and equipment, net is reported at cost less accumulated depreciation, which is generally provided on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Upon sale or retirement of an asset, the related costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is recognized.

Income Taxes

The Company, a C-corporation, accounts for income taxes under ASC Topic 740 (SFAS No. 109). Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the 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. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

The Company adopted the provisions of FASB ASC 740-10 “Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (ASC 740-10), on January 1, 2007. The Company has not recognized a liability as a result of the implementation of ASC 740-10. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits has not been provided since there is no unrecognized benefit since the date of adoption. The Company has not recognized interest expense or penalties as a result of the implementation of ASC 740-10. If there were an unrecognized tax benefit, the Company would recognize interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses.

Net Loss Per Share

The Company reports basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) according to the provisions of ASC Topic 260, which requires the presentation of basic EPS and, for companies with complex capital structures, diluted EPS. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders, adjusted by other changes in income or loss that would result from the assumed conversion of those potential common shares, by the weighted number of common shares and common share equivalents (unless their effect is antidilutive) outstanding. Common stock equivalents are not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share when the Company reports a loss because to do so would be anti-dilutive. Thus, these equivalents are not included in the calculation of diluted loss per share, resulting in basic and diluted loss per share being equal.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (“ASU 2018-13”), which modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with partial early adoption permitted for eliminated disclosures. The method of adoption varies by the disclosure. The Company adopted the new standard effective December 1, 2020 and does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (ASU 2019-12), which simplifies the accounting for income taxes. This guidance will be effective for entities for the fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020 on a prospective basis, with early adoption permitted. The Company will adopt the new standard effective December 1, 2021 and does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2020-01, Investments—Equity Securities (Topic 321), Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) (ASU 2020-01), which clarifies the interaction of the accounting for equity securities under Topic 321, the accounting for equity method investments in Topic 323, and the accounting for certain forward contracts and purchased options in Topic 815. This guidance will be effective for entities for the fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020 on a prospective basis, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance.

The Company has considered all other recently issued accounting pronouncements and does not believe the adoption of such pronouncements will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 3 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company currently rents space from our president, Mr. Arthur Viola. This is a month-to-month rental and there is no commitment beyond each month. The monthly rent expense is $2,100.

Effective December 15, 2016, Mr. Viola entered into a $685,000 convertible promissory note agreement with the Company and forgave all remaining amounts outstanding at that time. The note matured on December 15, 2018 and bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum. Mr. Viola has the option to convert any portion of the unpaid principal balance into the Company’s common stock at a discount to market of 50% at any time. No repayment or conversion of the note occurred as of February 28, 2021, and no notice of default has been issued.

During 2016, Mr. Viola personally funded $10,200 in expenses on behalf of the Company. These advances were made interest free with no maturity date. No repayments have been made against these advances as of February 28, 2021.

Mr. Viola is entitled to receive a salary of $175,000 annually. Mr. Viola has deferred all cash payments of his base salary in an effort to help the Company fund its operations. At February 28, 2021 and November 30, 2020, the total amount of accrued compensation owed to Mr. Viola was $584,784 and $541,034, respectively.

The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary Payless Truckers, Inc. have received net loan proceeds aggregating $372,388 from a related party to help fund the subsidiary’s operations. The loans currently bear interest at rates ranging between 35% - 40%, are secured by certain inventory assets and are payable on demand.

Two companies owned by Payless’ President and certain family members has loaned the Company floor plan financing for a monthly fee per truck financed. During the three months ended February 28, 2021, financing fees and interest totaling approximately $2,134 were paid to the related party. At February 28, 2021, the outstanding loan balance was $150,570.

A company owned by Payless’s President serves as an authorized agent to sell trucks for the Company. During the three months ended February 28, 2021, sales commissions of $26,500 were paid to the related party.

A different company owned by a brother of Payless’ president performs contract services, including sales and shop work, for the Company. During the three months ended February 28, 2021, sales commissions and shop work of $12,399 were paid to the related party.

NOTE 4 - GOING CONCERN

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business as they become due.

For the three months ended February 28, 2021, the Company incurred a net loss attributable to stockholders of $1,099,063. The Company has relied, in large part, upon proceeds received from the issuance of Series B convertible preferred stock, convertible debt and loans from related parties to fund its operations. As of February 28, 2021, the Company had outstanding indebtedness, net of discounts, of $1,956,773 and had $240,491 in cash.

As such, there is substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as such is dependent upon management’s ability to successfully execute its business plan, including increasing revenues through the sale of existing and future product offerings and reducing expenses in order to meet the Company’s current and future obligations. In addition, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon management’s ability to successfully satisfy, refinance or replace its current indebtedness. Failure to satisfy existing or obtain new financing may have a material adverse impact on the Company’s operations and liquidity.

The Company is expanding its operations through its leasing program. It believes that it is well positioned to generate significant recurring revenue and cash flows required to sustain its operations. However, even if the Company is successful in executing its plan, the Company may not generate enough revenue to satisfy all of its current obligations as they become due in addition to its outstanding indebtedness. Until the Company consistently generates positive cash flow from its operations, or successfully satisfies, refinances or replaces its current indebtedness, there is substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result if the Company is unable to operate as a going concern.

NOTE 5 - COVID-19

On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) announced a global health emergency in response to a new strain of a coronavirus (the “COVID-19 outbreak”). In March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic based on the rapid increase in exposure globally. The full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak continues to evolve as of the date of this report. Management is actively monitoring the global situation and its effects on the Company’s industry, financial condition, liquidity, and operations. Given the daily evolution of the COVID-19 outbreak and the global responses to curb its spread, the Company is not able to estimate the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak on its results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity for fiscal year 2021. However, if the pandemic continues, it may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of future operations, financial position, and liquidity in fiscal year 2021.

NOTE 6 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

None.

NOTE 7 - VEHICLES AND EQUIPMENT

The following table sets forth the components of the Company’s Vehicles and equipment at February 28, 2021 and November 30, 2020:

For the three months ended February 28, 2021 and February 29, 2020, the Company recorded depreciation expense of $35,473 and $10,902, respectively.

NOTE 8 - LEASES

The Company has entered into operating leases primarily for real estate. These leases have terms which range from one year to two years, and often include one or more options to renew. The Company recognizes on the balance sheet at the time of lease commencement or modification a right of use (“ROU”) operating lease asset and a lease liability, initially measured at the present value of the lease payments. Lease costs are recognized in the income statement over the lease term on a straight-line basis. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent its obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease.

Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities commencing after January 1, 2019 are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Based on the present value of the lease payments for the remaining lease term of the Company’s existing leases, the Company recorded ROU assets of $18,745 in assets and lease liabilities of $18,745 for operating leases as of February 28, 2021. For the three months ended February 28, 2021, the Company recognized approximately $16,465 in total lease costs.

Because the rate implicit in each lease is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of the lease payments.

Information related to the Company’s operating right-of-use assets and related lease liabilities were as follows:

The following table presents the Company’s future minimum lease obligation under ASC 840 as of November 30, 2020:

NOTE 9 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

The Company is not currently a party to any material legal proceedings. The Company’s counsel has no formal knowledge in the form of filings of any pending or contemplated litigation, claims or assessments. With regard to matters recognized to involve an unasserted possible claim or assessment that may call for financial statement disclosure and to which counsel has formed a professional conclusion that the Company should disclosure or consider disclosure concerning such possible claims or assessment, as a matter of professional responsibility to the Company, counsel will so advise and will consult with the company concerning the question of such disclosure and the applicable requirements of FASB ASC 450, “Contingencies”. To date, counsel has no formal knowledge of any unasserted possible claims.

NOTE 10 - INCOME TAXES

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of income tax expense (benefit) at the federal statutory rate to recorded income tax expense (benefit) for the three months ended February 28, 2021 and February 29, 2020:

As of February 28, 2021, the Company had approximately $13.2 million in net operating loss carry forwards for federal income tax purposes which expire at various dates through 2039. Generally, these can be carried forward and applied against future taxable income at the tax rate applicable at that time. We are currently using a 21% effective tax rate for our projected available net operating loss carry-forward. However, as a result of potential stock offerings and stock issuance in connection with potential acquisitions, as well as the possibility of the Company not realizing its business plan objectives and having future taxable income to offset, the Company’s use of these NOLs may be limited under the provisions of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Company is in the process of evaluating the implications of Section 382 on its ability to utilize some or all of its NOLs.

Components of deferred tax assets and (liabilities) are as follows:

In accordance with FASB ASC 740 “Income Taxes”, valuation allowances are provided against deferred tax assets, if based on the weight of available evidence, some or all of the deferred tax assets may or will not be realized. The Company has evaluated its ability to realize some or all of the deferred tax assets on its balance sheet and has established a valuation allowance of approximately $2.8 million at February 28, 2021. The Company did not utilize any NOL deductions for the three months ended February 28, 2021.

NOTE 11 - NOTES PAYABLE

On August 31, 2015, the Company entered in convertible note agreement with a private and accredited investor, LG Capital, in the amount of $75,000, unsecured, with principal and interest (stated at 8%) amounts due and payable upon maturity on February 28, 2016. After six months, the note holder has the option to convert any portion of the unpaid principal balance into the Company’s common shares at any time. The Company has determined that the conversion feature in this note is not indexed to the Company’s stock and is considered to be a derivative that requires bifurcation. The Company calculated the fair value of this conversion feature using the Black-Scholes model and the following assumptions: Risk-free interest rates ranging from .03% to .08%; Dividend rate of 0%; and, historical volatility rates ranging from 195% to 236%. As of February 28, 2021, the note balance was $55,224 and all associated loan discounts were fully amortized.

On December 30, 2015, the Company entered in convertible note agreement with a private and accredited investor, Auctus Private Equity Fund LLC, in the amount of $130,000, unsecured, with principal and interest (stated at 10%) amounts due and payable upon maturity on September 30, 2016. After six months, the note holder has the option to convert any portion of the unpaid principal balance into the Company’s common shares at any time. The Company has determined that the conversion feature in this note is not indexed to the Company’s stock and is considered to be a derivative that requires bifurcation. The Company calculated the fair value of this conversion feature using the Black-Scholes model and the following assumptions: Risk-free interest rates ranging from .03% to .16%; Dividend rate of 0%; and, historical volatility rates ranging from 208% to 269%. On January 9, 2019, $6,325 of principal was converted into 210,850,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. On January 15, 2019, $6,325 of principal was converted into 210,850,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. See Note 11. As of February 28, 2021, the note balance was $98,459 and all associated loan discounts were fully amortized.

On January 21, 2016, the Company entered in convertible note agreement with a private and accredited investor, John De La Cross Capital Partners Inc., in the amount of $8,000, unsecured, with principal and interest (stated at 5%) amounts due and payable upon demand. The note holder has the option to convert any portion of the unpaid principal balance into the Company’s common shares at any time. The Company has determined that the conversion feature in this note is not indexed to the Company’s stock and is considered to be a derivative that requires bifurcation. The Company calculated the fair value of this conversion feature using the Black-Scholes model and the following assumptions: Risk-free interest rates ranging from .03% to .16%; Dividend rate of 0%; and, historical volatility rates ranging from 208% to 269%. As of February 28, 2021, the note balance was $4,000 and all associated loan discounts were fully amortized.

On November 23, 2016, the Company entered in convertible note agreement with a private and accredited investor, Auctus Private Equity Fund LLC, in the amount of $61,000, unsecured, with principal and interest (stated at 12%) amounts due and payable upon maturity on August 23, 2017.

NOTE 12 - DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES

The Company accounts for derivative financial instruments in accordance with ASC 815, which requires that all derivative financial instruments be recorded in the balance sheets either as assets or liabilities at fair value.

The Company’s derivative liability is an embedded derivative associated with one of the Company’s convertible promissory notes. The convertible promissory notes were issued at various times but with similar terms and are therefore being termed as one instrument for this footnote, (the “Note”), is a hybrid instruments which contain an embedded derivative feature which would individually warrant separate accounting as a derivative instrument under Paragraph 815-10-05-4. The embedded derivative feature includes the conversion feature to the Note. Pursuant to Paragraph 815-10-05-4, the value of the embedded derivative liability has been bifurcated from the debt host contract and recorded as a derivative liability resulting in a reduction of the initial carrying amount (as unamortized discount) of the notes, which are amortized as debt discount to be presented in other (income) expenses in the statements of operations using the effective interest method over the life of the notes.

The embedded derivative within the note have been valued using the Black Scholes approach, recorded at fair value at the date of issuance; and marked-to-market at each reporting period end date with changes in fair value recorded in the Company’s statements of operations as “change in the fair value of derivative instrument”.

As of February 28, 2021 and November 30, 2020, the estimated fair value of derivative liability was determined to be $2,455,821 and $1,592,017, respectively. The change in the fair value of derivative liabilities for the three months ended February 28, 2021 was $832,861 resulting in an aggregate loss on derivative liabilities.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMNT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION 

February 28, 2021:

Our Consolidated quarterly results are indicative of an incubator fulfilling its corporate aim of successfully achieving its goal of advising and financing its premier subsidiary in the Transportation Services segment of the Trucking Industry. Daniels continued to umbrella the expansion efforts of its subsidiary through financing sources that continue to be expensive in nature. Management believes the capital costs were warranted and helped produce a stellar performance for its key growth engine – Payless Truckers, Inc.

The February 28, 2021 Quarter - The Payless Truckers Subsidiary had Total Revenues of $1,212,942 for the quarter and Gross Profit of $389,668. Its net profit was $84,668 and its EBITDA $164,516. Gross Margins / profits expanded significantly for both business segments due to strong product demand and improved cost controls. The Daniels subsidiary is on track to do close to $4.5 Million in revenue with significant profit potential. In comparison, for entire fiscal year 2020, Payless booked a small loss and EBITDA of $71,470.

The flip segment of our subsidiary – that could be categorized as “truck trading” - selectively buys, adds electronic improvements for safety and location, provides cosmetics, advertises and resells – booked Truck re-sales of $995,852. Astute trading acquired the trucks at a direct cost of $686,296. Added related costs produced a segment cost of goods sold of $757,430, for 24% gross profit margin. During the quarter, especially In January and February, truck prices were strong, allowing our re-sales to generate high margins.

The Program segment of our subsidiary – our rental fleet that now numbers twenty-two trucks – had rental income of $209,640 for the quarter with direct costs of only $5,000. A year ago, this segment only generated $22,000 In rental income with nominal costs. This segment continues to be a high margin business, and the business segment that has the potential to be scale-able for significant growth because of its predictable gross cash flow / earnings potential stream.

During the quarter ending February 28, 2021, the Rule 144 aging process continued to mature for In- house, longer term financing. One hundred & Fifteen Million equity shares were individual grants by the parent company as an addendum to the original start-up agreement. The grants were created for a specific purpose – for Senior oversight financial management. operations managers and retained consultants – to participate voluntarily in the growth of the Payless Subsidiary and ultimately in subsequent client/subsidiaries. The Grant shares will be eligible for sale during May 2021.

Negotiations with long term straight debt non-dilutive lenders and Preferred Stock financiers started in earnest during the quarter and progressed to a point where Daniels’ senior management believes levered financing to take Payless to the first plateau – of 100 rental fleet trucks- is achievable and will start during the May 31, 2021 Quarter. Leveraged finance closings will occur in stages supported by insider sales of equity shares already counted in the outstanding share count of Daniels. The timing of equity sales will be to meet the current operating capacity of Payless. Board level discussions are taking place to expand the Payless operating facility to speed up the expansion. (Relocation to larger rental quarters may be necessary).

The combination of straight debt, Preferred Stock and timed insider equity capital sales/ infusions will reduce dependence on expensive private loans secured against trucks. Blended Public market-rates for financing, will allow Daniels / Payless to service a larger debt load and accelerate growth prospects. Our cost of capital will drop significantly from current levels.

As used in this interim report, the terms “we”, “us”, “our”, the “Company”, the “Registrant”, “Daniels Corporate Advisory”, “DCAC” and “Daniels” mean Daniels Corporate Advisory Company, Inc. unless otherwise indicated.

Overview

Daniels Corporate Advisory creates and implements corporate strategy alternatives for the mini-cap public or private company client. The addition of new business opportunities and the location of professional talent for implementation is anticipated through the full-time efforts of our senior management. These efforts are to be expanded in the United States and in foreign capitals by an expanding advisory board and through the networks of independent consultants. Principals of the respective client company will open their networks to augment professional access for specialties the Daniels corporate strategy consultants believe are needed in a joint-venture, jointly-controlled undertaking created for the client’s optimum growth.

Daniels may provide the client with multiple corporate strategies/opportunities including joint-ventures, marketing opportunity agreements and/or potential acquisitions structured in leveraged buyout format. One or a combination of these strategies would allow the client to enter new market niches or expand further into existing ones.

Recent Business Developments

The Company is operating through the corporate strategy segment of its business. It is attempting to build its own critical mass by creation of start-up subsidiaries it believes have promise/potential. The stated goal is for the parent (DCAC) company to consolidate the critical mass of the subsidiary/start-ups with that of the parent for eventually listing on a major stock exchange. We have continued to focus our efforts on the build out of the Daniels corporate strategy model. We adjusted our strategy as it relates to the development of subsidiary start-ups and potential acquisitions for common stock. We concentrate on identifying projects that have the potential to produce significant earnings on the leveraged capital base of both the parent and the subsidiary/start-up within an expedited time period.

As a result, we formed Payless Truckers, Inc. (“Payless”), a wholly-owned subsidiary which was incorporated in the State of Nevada, on April 11, 2018. Payless is a start-up, service company in the trucking industry. It has two business segments with its launch and current results coming from the “flip” segment, whose principal business is to acquire class 8 heavy duty trucks, refurbish them, add location electronics, advertise and sell to independent drivers and operators. The second segment is the “credit rebuilding segment” where class 8 heavy duty trucks, owned by Daniels/Payless, are rented to experienced independent drivers. These independent drivers rent for a period of up to five years, and have the option to buy the vehicle at retail value every six months. This segment commenced operations subsequent to the close of our fiscal year. In an effort to grow quickly and profitably, Daniels entered into an operating agreement with a senior operating management team in an effort to drive the business and better realize its earnings and growth potential.

The Payless two-segment trucking model represents a streamlined Transportation Services Company; one Daniels believes can be restructured/redirected to survive any potential future slow-downs in the economy. The model was developed to allow for the maximum utilization of each truck as it is put into immediate service in numbers that are manageable without causing excess capacity. Top brand/model Tractors with low mileage are handpicked by our operations team - a family with three generations in automotive/trucking. Our drivers continue to be handpicked for their driving skills and their established hauling networks. They rent/switch trailers to meet the available work on Load Boards or haul for major hauling companies using hauling company trailers. Due to the current dislocations in every industry due to the Coronavirus, our independent contractor drivers are constantly on the road.

We hope to further enhance our plan for growth beginning in our second year by forming joint-ventures and/or partnerships with truck maintenance companies across the United States in key traffic hubs. This will potentially afford independent drivers and operators the opportunity to be serviced by trusted maintenance facilities under our warranty program.

Business Strategy - Current Operational Strategy & Current Client Projects

Daniels creates and implements corporate strategy alternatives for the mini-cap public or private company client. The addition of new business opportunities and the location of professional talent for implementation is anticipated through the full-time efforts of our senior management. These efforts are to be expanded in the US and in Foreign capitals by an expanding advisory board and through the networks of independent consultants. Principals of the respective client company will open their networks to augment professional access for specialties the Daniels corporate strategy consultants believe are needed in a joint venture, (jointly-controlled) undertaking created for the client’s optimum growth.

Daniels may provide the client with multiple corporate strategies /opportunities including joint-ventures, marketing opportunity agreements and/or potential acquisitions structured in a leveraged buyout format. One or a combination of these strategies would allow the client to enter new market niches or expand further into existing ones.

One of the Company’s primary objectives is to be listed on a major exchange listing. Senior management is estimating at least twenty-four months from commencement of a corporate strategy assignment. Financial results, aided by all participating players, should be forthcoming and recorded in SEC filings. At the same time, a senior management team and Board expanded with highly-credible interim (or permanent) professionals (directors) will be organized in order to successfully navigate the listing process of a major stock exchange. While Daniels believes this process should be successful in the above-noted time period, there is some uncertainty in the process which is dependent upon any past issues the listing committee of a specific exchange may deem necessary to be addressed prior to uplifting. In addition, it may take added time to find the appropriate outside directors that can not only satisfy the listing committee of the exchange but who can also provide added networking/services to build the parent’s and subsidiary’s potential for accelerated growth.

A similar effort will be provided to tailor an optimum growth program for the private company client, whether it chooses to remain private or to become a public company through alternative merger opportunities.

Growth Strategy - Short-Term Objectives

Daniels’ believes that the validity of its corporate strategy model is proven through the success of its initial subsidiary incubation, Payless Truckers, Inc. The growing momentum of this cash flow engine is generating the interest of long-term financing sources. They recognize the obvious - the cash flows from the fleet truck program can cover significant debt service on longer term financing which can accelerate the levered growth of the Company. Daniels has used its publicly-traded common stock in a variety of securities packages, including convertible preferred stock, to launch its premier subsidiary start-up, (Payless Truckers) and will do so for other start-up opportunities being reviewed. Initial subsidiaries (start-up clients) are those that can generate significant return on invested capital so that growth acceleration comes from generic sales/profit growth. Alternative growth options - joint-ventures, marketing agreements, acquisitions/LBO’s - will be applied secondarily as external growth opportunities are entered into to bring the start-up (now considered an early-stage company) to critical mass for stability.

Senior management believes our corporate strategy business model - as an incubator of subsidiary / spin-off companies - to be scalable. Based upon the potential success of the initial corporate strategy consulting assignments creating Daniels’ uplifting to a major stock exchange, Daniels (the publicly traded Exchange listed parent incubator with sophisticated senior advisory and capital raised at very advantageous rates) - may entertain the creation of a franchising program for key US cities and foreign finance centers.

Sales and Marketing

Daniels’ senior management will concentrate its efforts to expand its corporate strategy and financial advisory services and related specialties in the mini-cap segment of the private and public markets, where Daniels believes it will be effective. Marketing efforts will increase through social and print media efforts and will be in addition to those methods already mentioned herein.

Daniels’ objective is to create and help manage implementation of accelerated expansion strategies and in so doing, aid in the creation of financing alternatives to accomplish client goals.

Competition

Existing and new competitors will continue to improve their services and introduce new services with competitive price and performance characteristics.

In periods of reduced demand for our services, we can either choose to maintain market share by reducing our prices to meet competition or maintain prices and choose only those assignments with new clients that have pressing goals to be met that offer Daniels optimum potential for profits and growth.

The “collective” corporate financial services, direct and referral, including merchant banking/private equity, are very competitive and fragmented in the Company’s market niche. There are limited barriers to entry and new competitors frequently enter the market. A significant number of our competitors possess substantially greater resources. We will continue to offer equity compensation to our team in order to keep a stable, cohesive team of professionals, which is necessary and key to the creation of operating and capital solutions in a timely fashion.

The above competitive considerations are no longer considered by senior advisory/oversight management to be as important as they once were. More importantly, we are now known for the success of our visionary growth strategies and their execution in the development and launch of our premier subsidiary - Payless Truckers Inc. The return on investment on early stages of our developing 100 truck fleet should generate the positive cash flow that will eventually create excess profits and help launch other promising new candidates (start-up clients) as subsidiary deals.

General

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our financial statements, Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our most significant judgments and estimates used in preparation of our financial statements. which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.

Critical Accounting Policies

Financial Reporting Release No. 60, published by the SEC, recommends that all companies include a discussion of critical accounting policies used in the preparation of their financial statements. While all these significant accounting policies impact our financial condition and results of operations and we view certain of these policies as critical. Policies determined to be critical are those policies that have the most significant impact on our consolidated financial statements and require management to use a greater degree of judgment and estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

We believe that given current facts and circumstances, it is unlikely that applying any other reasonable judgments or estimate methodologies would cause a material effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or liquidity for the periods presented in this report.

The accounting policies identified as critical are as follows:

Revenue and Cost Recognition

We recognize revenue when we satisfy performance obligations by the transfer of control of products or services to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those products or services. We recognize revenue from class 8 heavy duty truck sales to customers when we satisfy our performance obligation, at a point in time, when title to the truck is transferred to the customer. Delivery or shipping charges billed to customers, if applicable, are included in product sales and the related shipping costs are included in cost of goods sold.

Fair Value of Assets

The Company has adopted the standard FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC 820) “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” which defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. These financial instruments include investments in available-for-sale securities and accounts payable and accrued expenses. The Company has also applied ASC 820 for all non-financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. The adoption of ASC 820 for non-financial assets and liabilities did not have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Use of Estimates

In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

COVID-19

On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) announced a global health emergency in response to a new strain of a coronavirus (the “COVID-19 outbreak”). In March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic based on the rapid increase in exposure globally. The full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak continues to evolve as of the date of this report. Management is actively monitoring the global situation and its effects on the Company’s industry, financial condition, liquidity, and operations. Given the daily evolution of the COVID-19 outbreak and the global responses to curb its spread, the Company is not able to estimate the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak on its results of operations, financial condition, or liquidity for fiscal year 2021. However, if the pandemic continues, it may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of future operations, financial position, and liquidity in fiscal year 2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of February 28, 2021, we had $240,491 in cash and cash equivalents and a working capital deficit of $5,227,808.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $190,422 for the three months ended February 28, 2021, compared to net provided by operating activities of $17,851 during the three months ended February 29, 2020. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities is primarily attributable to the change in our working capital assets and decrease in net loss.

Net cash used in investing activities was $265,257 for the three months ended February 28, 2021, compared to $38,605 during the three months ended February 29, 2020. The increase in net cash used is directly attributable to the number of trucks purchased for use in our credit rebuilding business line.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $114,468 for the three months ended February 28, 2021, compared to net cash provided of $40,000 during the three months ended February 29, 2020. The increase in net cash provided by financing activities is directly related to proceeds received from the issuance of Series B convertible preferred stock. During the three months ended February 28, 2021, we received proceeds of $97,000 from the issuance of Series B convertible preferred stock to fund operations. This compares to proceeds of $50,000 received from the issuance of convertible debt received during the three months ended February 29, 2020.

Our primary source of liquidity has been proceeds received from the issuance of Series B convertible preferred stock, convertible debt and loans from related parties. In addition, cash flow generated by our subsidiary Payless Truckers has helped to sustain the consolidated group.

Financing Activities

We will have to raise capital by means of borrowings or through a private placement or a subsequent registered offering. At present, we do not have any commitments with respect to future financings. If we are unable to raise adequate capital, in the near term, to finance all phases of a client corporate consulting assignment, our proposed business will experience slow growth because it will be very hard to compete for business without a sound capital base to support advisory and implementation efforts on our suggested corporate growth strategies.

At present, we do have sufficient capital on hand to fund operations for the immediate future. Management estimates that it will need up to $2.0 million to fund its PayLess Truckers subsidiary. It is possible that we can still achieve our objectives by use of asset-based lending whereby we can leverage our truck purchases. However, because of the start-up nature of the subsidiary this financing may be harder to achieve than normal. Even if limited funds are raised, PayLess will still be able to register profits from its “flip” program while cost-effective funding for the “credit enhancement” program can be arranged. The Company does have funding available under a commitment letter but these funds are very expensive; management is trying to avoid their use.

It is the Company’s intention to concentrate its efforts on the build-out of its PayLess Truckers, Inc. subsidiary. Once solidly on its growth path, meeting projections and generating positive operating cash flows, additional subsidiary/start-up businesses will be entertained be the parent company.

Senior Management believes it will have sufficient cash flows to continue in business for the foreseeable future. While legal and accounting expenses are significant for a reporting company, we will cover them out of operating cash flows.

Comparison of the Three Months Ended February 28, 2021 to the Three Months Ended February 29, 2020 Results of Operations

Sales

Sales totaled $1,212,942 which were comprised of (i) $998,007 from the resale of refurbished trucks and (ii) $209,640 from vehicle rental agreements, and (iii) $5,295 from other miscellaneous sources for the three months ended February 28, 2021, compared to sales $1,293,386 which were comprised of (i) $1,169,593 from the resale of refurbished trucks and (ii) $123,787 from vehicle rental agreements during the three months ended February 29, 2020.

Gross Profit

Gross profit is calculated by subtracting cost of goods sold from sales. Gross profit percentage is calculated by dividing gross margins by revenue. Current gross profit percentages may not be indicative of future gross profit performance. Gross profit totaled $389,668 for the three months ended February 28, 2021, compared to $195,046 during the three months ended February 29, 2020, respectively. Gross profit percentage was 32.1% and 15.1% for the three months ended February 28, 2021 and February 29, 2020, respectively. The increase in gross profit and gross profit percentage for the current year period is attributable to an increase in revenues from truck rental agreements, which typically yield higher profit margins, and improved profit margins from the resale of our trucks.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses are primarily comprised of compensation, facilities costs and outsourced services. Operating expenses totaled $375,582 for the three months ended February 28, 2021, compared to operating expenses of $273,870 during the three months ended February 29, 2020 representing an increase of $101,712 or 37.1%. The increase in operating expenses is generally related to the increase in our use of consulting and professional services for corporate matters and financing efforts.

Other Expenses

Other expenses totaled $998,485 for the three months ended February 28, 2021, compared to other expenses of $1,027,978 during the three months ended February 29, 2020 representing a decrease of $29,493 or 2.9%. Interest expense increased to $165,624 for the three months ended February 28, 2021 from $88,993 during the three months ended February 29, 2020. The increase in interest expense is due to an increase in debt utilized to purchase trucks for our leasing program. We recorded a loss from the change in fair value of derivative liabilities of $832,861 during the three months ended February 28, 2021, compared to a loss from the change in fair value of derivative liabilities of $934,549 during the three months ended February 29, 2020.

Net Income Attributable to Common Stockholders

The Company incurred a net loss attributable to common stockholders of $1,099,063 for the three months ended February 28, 2021, compared to a net loss of $1,106,802 incurred during the three months ended February 29, 2020. The decrease in our net loss attributable to common stockholders is largely attributable to the increase in our gross profits offset in part by deemed dividends of $114,664 to our Series B preferred stockholders. There were no deemed dividends to preferred stockholders during the three months ended February 29, 2020.

None.

ITEM 4 CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as of February 28, 2021, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of February 28, 2021 to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act were recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Act Commission’s rules and forms and that our disclosure controls are effectively designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon 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. Further, 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. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdown can occur because of simple error or mistake. In particular, many of our current processes rely upon manual reviews and processes to ensure that neither human error nor system weakness has resulted in erroneous reporting of financial data.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended February 28, 2021 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
