PART I
ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS
General
Klever Marketing, Inc. was formed for the purpose of creating a vehicle to obtain capital, to file and acquire patents, to seek out, investigate, develop, and market electronic in-store advertising, directory and coupon services which have potential for profit. The Company successfully conducted two in-store demonstrations of its shopping cart technology – the latest being in 2009 with the release of the Giving Cart and its Retailer Chime-Time Awards Programs. Subsequently, in 2010, the Company shifted its business model to mobile technology and has aggressively developed new applications using this technology, which it expects to market and release in the near future. The Company is currently testing its mobile technology in a pilot store in Anaheim, California.
Product Base
Following a decade of development of its shopping cart-based electronic advertising technology, which was successful in demonstrating the advantages of electronic distribution and redemption of electronic coupons and promotions, the Company realized that mobile technology had advanced to the level where Klever’s product base could be applied and considerably expanded into an entirely new product line. Accordingly, in 2010, the Company made a dramatic shift into mobile technology. Since that time the Company has made remarkable progress on its mobile application development and implementation. The software programming of the consumer KleverShop® application has been completed and successfully tested in our- demonstration store. The retailer and supplier KleverDash® application has completed its database and backend programming, complete with an revised graphical user interface, and successfully tested in our demonstration store.
Brief History of Klever's Mobile Operations
At the end of 2010 the Company hired an independent consultant to review the prospect of shifting Klever's shopping cart software system to mobile operations. The consultant's study determined not only the timing as being now but also the feasibility of greatly expanding the Company's software capability with mobile applications and the benefits of coupling of our products with new social network marketing technology. The first half of 2011 was spent defining the new mobile shopping system requirements and patentable processes. During the second half of the year, a contract was signed for mobile application development and work began. During 2012, the KleverShop, KleverDash and backend KleverKloud systems were developed by Qualzoom, a US company with US trained staff working overseas. During 2012, the software systems were successfully developed and tested in a retail store at yearend. During 2012, the software systems were successfully developed. Testing was conducted in our demonstration retail store at yearend and drew repeated interest and high appeal from our potential retail customers and consuming public.
The software development was successful enough that Klever realized further enhancements could be added to make it even more valuable and greater focus could be placed on the screen graphics and ease of use. Accordingly, the company undertook additional software development in 2013.
2013 Mobile Application Development and Implementation
The Company's 2013 software development has been very successful. At the beginning of the year, as the Company took an expanded look at the potential of a total digital solution, it became clear that further software development could result in a significant separation from our competitors who were starting to release other grocery applications. The Company saw that other solutions were being quickly released on the market without really solving the need to interact with a store's POS system and efficiently select, redeem and clear coupons. In fact many solutions on the market today still require printing of digital coupons, which to us offers no consumer advantage over current practices, and other users were taking pictures of existing coupons which raise the issue of authenticity. The Company still saw a limited ability among the competition to properly transact coupons.
Accordingly, with some concern from stockholders who wanted us to rollout the product now, we undertook additional development efforts and a refreshed and simplified look of the actual KleverShop consumer application - all the while protecting the Company with additional patent claims. Having looked at other partially developed applications and knowing the importance of first impressions with new software, the Company was well aware of the risks of rolling out its software too soon. The Company proceeded to develop a unique and patent protected method of interacting with the Store's POS without adding built- in software to their processes. This "Hook and Tender" process as we call it, allows consumers to obtain a unique, bar code that consolidates their selected coupons, to scan their mobile phone at checkout and quickly tap into the POS to redeem the coupon savings, print out the normal receipt now showing the consumer's savings from Klever, and prepare a daily, auditable transaction report identifying each coupon or promotion redeemed, the redemption value and revenues to Klever. The Company has tested this process extensively and we are confident of its reliability, accuracy and retail/consumer appeal. This is a major asset for Klever. The Company's software functions now with Retalix ISS45 software which is in use in about 14,000 markets. Our software is transferable to other POS software with some additional, minimal application programming, which has not yet been undertaken. That will be done after the current software is operational and revenues are flowing to the Company.

During 2013, as a result of arrangements made by management, the Company had access to a demonstration store for the entire year to test each of the software developments against the current hardware and software. In September the Company also conducted a focus group with users recruited from the store's consumers' and carefully noted the features that are attractive and working well and those that could be improved. At this stage the Company was transitioning from developmental programming, which now worked proficiently, to operational refinements for ease of use by consumers and retailers. Methods were found to eliminate steps, improve navigation and other detailed features.
Following implementation of the changes made from the Focus Group, in November the Company again recruited additional users at the store to test the refinements, and at this stage found that few improvements were needed. The Company continued its transformation from a development company to an operational company, addressing the operational issues of conducting promotional transactions and marketing the products. The demonstration store check-out staff were trained in the use of the KleverShop application. The patented Chime-Time Awards program was executed successfully with many options available to store management. The KleverDash retailer promotion tracking program, that allows retailers suppliers to view the real-time redemption of coupons and other promotions, was successfully utilized. The KelverBank deposit and redemption center for developing and operating coupon redemption programs was expanded and successfully utilized. The accounting processes were developed along with the contract forms for use with pending retail customers. The Company also prepared the necessary documentation of its software applications.
The Company's KleverShop™ and KleverDash™ software, utilizing the KleverBank® and operating in the KleverKloud®, now allows retailers and suppliers to establish and manage digital promotion campaigns with far greater accuracy and flexibility than current technology provides. These products can revolutionize the way consumers, retailers and suppliers interact by offering many specialized or time-sensitive promotions not currently available. Much more information can be given to consumers. Retailers and suppliers have much greater control. And the speed and reliability of transactions and their clearing is greatly accelerated.
Anticipated Business Development in the Next 12 Months
During 2014, the Company intends to move forward along several paths. We will continue to strengthen our balance sheet, and reduce our outstanding debt and seek additional capital investment. Additionally, we will be working with an investment relations company to strengthen public awareness of our Company's investment potential. We will strengthen our KleverShop® and KleverDash™ systems to improve the consumer experience and ability of suppliers to manage their promotional programs. We are looking to expand into a regional super market chain of moderate size to test the multi-store usability of our software systems, and by late fall we are targeting to land a major supermarket chain. By that time we expect to have promotional relationships with numerous product suppliers. We will begin heavily promoting our KleverBank® system for promotions management and consumer redemption, which, if successful, should place our Company in an advantageous position. We, of course aren't the only Company developing digital solutions for coupon management. There are several applications on the market now; but in our opinion these have limited capability. We expect to differentiate ourselves by being a full service digital marketing provider to consumers, retailers and suppliers with platforms to meet all of their promotional needs. Notable progress is being made, and the Company is moving forward to an exciting future. However, we must caution the reader that Klever Marketing is still a development stage company, and no revenue contracts have yet been signed. No assurance or warranty can be given that the Company will be successful in implementing the efforts described in this report.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS AND UNCERTAINTIES
Readers should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below before deciding whether to invest in shares of our common stock.
Our failure to successfully address the risks and uncertainties described below would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and/or results of operations, and the trading price of our common stock may decline and investors may lose all or part of their investment. We cannot assure you that we will successfully address these risks or other unknown risks that may affect our business.
As an enterprise engaged in the development of new technology, our business is inherently risky. Our common shares are considered speculative during the development of our new business operations. Prospective investors should consider carefully the risk factors set out below.
2 |
We need to continue as a going concern if our business is to succeed.
Our independent accountant’s report to our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013, indicates that there are a number of factors that raise substantial risks about our ability to continue as a going concern. Such factors identified in the report are our accumulated deficit since inception, our failure to attain profitable operations and our dependence upon obtaining adequate additional financing to pay our liabilities. If we are not able to continue as a going concern, investors could lose their investments.
Because of the unique difficulties and uncertainties inherent in technology development, we face a risk of business failure.
Potential investors should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered by companies developing new technology and the high rate of failure of such enterprises. The likelihood of success must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, difficulties, complications and delays encountered in connection with the development of new technology with limited personnel and financial means. These potential problems include, but are not limited to, unanticipated technical problems that extend the time and cost of product development, or unanticipated problems with the operation of our technology or that with which we are licensing that also extend the time and cost of product development.
If we do not obtain additional financing, our business will fail.
Our current operating funds are less than necessary to complete the full development and marketing of our mobile products, and we will need to obtain additional financing in order to complete our business plan. We currently have minimal operations and no income.
Our business plan calls for significant expenses in connection with developing our mobile phone technology and paying our current obligations. The Company currently does not have sufficient funds to complete the development of its technology and to pay its obligations. As a result, the Company will require additional financing to execute its business plan.
We do not currently have any firm arrangements for financing, and we can provide no assurance to investors that we will be able to find such additional financing if required. Obtaining additional financing is subject to a number of factors, including investor acceptance of our technology and current financial condition as well as general market conditions. These factors affect the timing, amount, terms or conditions of additional financing unavailable to us. And if additional financing is not arranged, the company faces the risk of going out of business.
The most likely source of future funds presently available to us is through the additional sale of private equity capital or through a convertible debt instrument. Any sale of share capital will result in dilution to existing shareholders.
There is no history upon which to base any assumption as to the likelihood we will prove successful, and we can provide investors with no assurance that we will generate any operating revenues or achieve profitable operations. If we are unsuccessful in addressing these risks, our business will most likely fail.
Because the SEC imposes additional sales practice requirements on brokers who deal in our shares that are penny stocks, some brokers may be unwilling to trade them. This means that investors may have difficulty reselling their shares and may cause the price of the shares to decline.
Our shares qualify as penny stocks and are covered by Section 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker/dealers who sell our securities in this offering or in the aftermarket. In particular, prior to selling a penny stock, broker/dealers must give the prospective customer a risk disclosure document that: contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; contains a description of the broker/dealers’ duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to violations of such duties or other requirements of Federal securities laws; contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including “bid” and “ask” prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask prices; contains the toll free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions established pursuant to section 15(A)(i); defines significant terms used in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and contains such other information, and is in such form (including language, type size, and format), as the SEC requires by rule or regulation. Further, for sales of our securities, the broker/dealer must make a special suitability determination and receive from you a written agreement before making a sale to you. Because of the imposition of the foregoing additional sales practices, it is possible that brokers will not want to make a market in our shares. This could prevent reselling of shares and may cause the price of the shares to decline.
3 |
Technology companies face intense competition. We will have to compete with our competitors for financing and for qualified managerial and technical employees.
The technology industry is intensely competitive in all of its phases. Competition includes large established technology companies with substantial capabilities and with greater financial and technical resources than we have. As a result of this competition, we may be unable to become a leader in our industry and attract and retain qualified managerial and technical employees. If we are unable to successfully compete for financing or for qualified employees, our technology development and commercialization efforts may be slowed down or suspended.
We do not expect to declare or pay any dividends.
We have not declared or paid any dividends on our common stock since our inception, and we do not anticipate paying any such dividends for the foreseeable future.
Volatility of Stock Price.
Our common shares are currently publicly traded on the OTC BB exchange under the symbol KLMK. In the future, the trading price of our common shares may be subject to wide fluctuations. Trading prices of the common shares may fluctuate in response to a number of factors, many of which will be beyond our control. In addition, the stock market in general, and the market for software technology companies in particular, has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of such companies. Market and industry factors may adversely affect the market price of the common shares, regardless of our operating performance.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA
Not required for smaller reporting companies.
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company net operating income of $521,067. To date the Company has not had any revenues from operations. Since inception, the Company’s primary source of funding has come through the unregistered sales of restricted common stock, sales proceeds from selling certain non-core intangible assets and net proceeds from settling patent suits.
The Company is dependent on obtaining additional capital to complete its mobile technology deployment and makes no warranty or assurance that it will be successful in any of these endeavors. Further, there is no assurance that the Company can continue to operate without cash flows or revenues. During the past year, the Company has relied exclusively upon interim capital financing for its continuation.
Results of Operations - For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company generated a net operating income of $521,067 as compared to a net loss of $450,571 for the year ended December 31, 2012. The income generated in 2013 is primarily from gains on debt forgiveness of $818,708 coupled with net proceeds from patent infringement litigation of $94,485 partially offset by ongoing operating expenses. The 2012 net loss is primarily the result of expenditures on development of the Company’s mobile applications and ongoing administrative expenses. The Company remains in the product development stage and generated no revenue in 2013 or 2012. During 2012 and 2013, the Company’s expenditures were directed at developing software for its mobile phone applications. During the summer of 2013, the Company completed a successful test of its KleverShop® application.
In May 2011, the Company entered into an agreement to sell the rights to certain IP addresses that were noncore to the Company’s business and were fully amortized. The sale closed during September 2011 and the Company received proceeds of $623,234 after paying commissions associated with the sale. Management used the proceeds to fund development costs associated with its mobile technology and to cover ongoing operating expenses.
General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2013 decreased by $17,003 or 4.4% to $371,039 from $388,042 for the year ended December 31, 2012. The primary reason for the overall decrease in general and administrative expenses is due to decreased costs for stock promotion, amortization, and outside services. Stock promotion costs increased from $2,500 in 2012 to $24,738 in 2013 as the Company tried various programs to increase investor awareness of its stock and product development progress. Amortization costs increased to $15,631 in 2013 compared to $3,051 in 2012 as a result of the Company’s increased amortization associated with the Company’s patents and trademarks. These increases were offset by a $4,377 reduction in travel costs, a $4,543 decrease in accounting fees, a $14,420 decrease in expenses for stock options, and a $13,162 decrease in outside services for the year ended December 31, 2013 as compared to 2012.

During the year ended December 31, 2013 research and development costs decreased by 62.5% from $7,833 in 2012 to $2,940 in 2013. During 2013, the Company incurred less costs to develop its technology than it did in 2012; however, the decrease in R&D expenses was due primarily to the Company obtaining technological feasibility with its mobile software development and capitalizing $130,987 as compared to $100,223 of development costs for the year ended December 31, 2012.
Other income (expense) increased to $896,242 in 2013 from ($48,368) in 2012 representing an increase of $944,610. In 2012, other income (expense) consisted of interest expense. During 2013, the Company generated a gain on debt forgiveness of $818,708, $94,485 in net proceeds from patent infringement legal settlements, partially offset by ($16,626) in interest expense and a ($325) loss on disposal of assets.
Income tax expense decreased to $1,196 for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to $6,328 for the year ended December 31, 2012 primarily due to management recording a liability of $29,101 during the fourth quarter of 2011 relating to the Company’s uncertain tax positions. Approximately $5,328 of the 2012 income tax expense related to interest and penalties are being accrued but not paid in connection with the Company’s uncertain tax positions. Tax expense in 2013 included $1,096 in interest and penalties associated with the Company’s uncertain tax positions.
Liquidity and Capital Resources - The Company requires working capital principally to fund its proposed product development and operating expenses for which the Company has relied primarily on short-term borrowings and the issuance of restricted common stock. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company was able to sell 2,775,000 shares of restricted common stock and 550,000 shares of free trading treasury stock for $316,500. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company invested $1,809 in computer equipment, $66,760 in capitalized software development, and $39,859 in its patents and trademarks for its intellectual property.
During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company entered into settlement agreements with certain creditors resulting in the Company making cash payments totaling $25,450 and issuing 450,000 shares of common stock valued at $13,500 to settle outstanding obligations totaling $776,153. The Company also wrote off $81,504 of obligations where the statute of limitations had expired. The settlement of these obligations resulted in the Company recording a gain on Forgiveness of Debt totaling $818,708.
During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company’s officers agreed to forgive $404,250 of compensation that was owed to them and contribute the value of those services to the Company. As a result, the Company recorded an addition to paid-in capital for this amount.
As of December 31, 2013, our cash position was $51,654, compared with $3,055 as of December 31, 2012. We anticipate hiring additional employees and consultants for development and the corresponding operations of the Company, but this hiring is not planned to occur prior to obtaining additional capital. The Company requires working capital principally to complete development, testing and marketing of its new mobile products and to pay for ongoing operating expenses. Management is currently in the process of looking for additional investors. Currently, there are no formal commitments from banks or other lending sources for lines of credit or similar short-term borrowings, but the Company has been able to raise minimal additional working capital that has been required to enable the Company to continue operations. From time to time in the past, required short-term borrowings have been obtained from principal shareholders or other related entities or working capital has been obtained through the issuance of restricted common stock to fund operations in accordance with the Company’s revised business plan.
Cash flows used by operating activities – The Company used $148,023 and $168,364 for operating activities for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The increase in cash flows used in operating activities is primarily due to a decrease in debt forgiveness of $818,708, partially offset by an increase in net income of $971,638 coupled with year over year increases in depreciation and amortization of $13,076, and services contributed by officers of $81,000, accounts payable of 36,354 and accrued liabilities of $175,666.
Cash flows used by investing activities – The Company used $108,428 of cash flows in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to $139,904 for the year ended December 31, 2012. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company incurred costs of $1,809 to purchase computer equipment, $66,760 for capitalized software development costs, and spent $39,859 to develop related patents and trademarks. For the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company spent $2,084 to purchase computer equipment, $100,223 on software development costs, and $37,597 to obtain related patents and trademarks.
Cash flows generated from financing activities – The Company generated cash flows from financing activities of $305,050 for the year ended December 31, 2013 as compared to $133,450 for the year ended December 31, 2012. During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company sold 2,775,000 shares of restricted common stock and 550,000 shares of free trading treasury stock for $316,500. In addition, the Company used cash net of borrowings of $11,450 to repay related party loans from its officers. During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company sold 839,444 restricted shares of common stock to individuals for $122,000 and received $11,450 from related party borrowings.

Factors That May Affect Future Results - Management’s Discussion and Analysis contains information based on management’s beliefs and forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ materially from the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including but not limited to the following:
· | The Company may not obtain the equity funding or short-term borrowings necessary to market and launch its mobile applications. |
· | The product launch may take longer to implement than planned or may not be successful. |
ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The financial statements of the Company and supplementary data are included beginning immediately following the signature page to this report. See Item 15 for a list of the financial statements and financial statement schedules included.
ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
There are not and have not been any disagreements between the Company and its accountants on any matter of accounting principles, practices or financial statement disclosures.
On February 25, 2013, the Company filed an 8-K announcing the appointment of the new auditors, HJ & Associates, LLC.
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures for the Company, and have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this report, based on their evaluation of these controls and procedures required by paragraph (b) of Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f), due to certain material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as discussed below.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls over financial reporting for the Company. Due to limited resources, Management conducted an evaluation of internal controls based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). The results of this evaluation determined that our internal control over financial reporting was ineffective as of December 31, 2013, due to material weaknesses. A material weakness in internal control over financial reporting is defined as a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those responsible for oversight of our financial reporting.
Management’s assessment identified the following material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting:
· | The small size of our Company limits our ability to achieve the desired level of separation of internal controls and financial reporting. We do have a separate CEO and CFO, to review and oversee the financial policies and procedures of the Company, which does achieve a degree of separation. However, until such time as the Company is able to hire a Controller, we do not believe we meet the full requirement for separation. | |
· | We do not have a functional audit committee. | |
· | We have not achieved the desired level of documentation of our internal controls and procedures. When the Company obtains sufficient funding, this documentation will be strengthened through utilizing a third party consulting firm to assist management with its internal control documentation and further help to limit the possibility of any lapse in controls occurring. | |
· | We have not achieved the desired level of corporate governance to ensure that our accounting for all of our contractual and other agreements is in accordance with all of the relevant terms and conditions. Because of our limited capital resources, we sometimes formalize our agreements with certain contractors after the work is performed when additional resources become available to pay for the services. |
8 |
As a result of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described above, the Company’s management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2013, the Company's internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on the criteria in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the COSO.
To date, the Company has not been able to add any additional members to its Audit Committee due its limited financial resources. When the Company obtains sufficient funding, Management intends to add additional members to the Audit Committee and charge them with assisting the Company in addressing the material weaknesses noted above. The Company’s lack of current financial resources makes it impossible for the Company to hire the appropriate personnel needed to overcome these weaknesses and ensure that appropriate controls and separation of responsibilities of a larger organization exist. We also will continue to follow the standards for the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) for internal control over financial reporting to include procedures that:
o | Pertain to the maintenance of records in reasonable detail accurately that fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Company's assets; | |
o | Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of the financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and the Board of Directors; and | |
o | Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. |
Our management determined that there were no changes made in our internal controls over financial reporting during the fiscal year 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Changes to Executive Officers and Directors
None
Audit Committee
As of December 31, 2013, the Company did not have a functioning Audit and Compliance Committee. The Company’s management is currently reviewing the Company’s SEC filings and relying on outside experts to assist with this process.
Audit Committee Financial Expert
The Company's board of directors needs to have an “audit committee financial expert,” within the meaning of such phrase under applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, serving on its audit committee. The individual needs to be capable of (i) understanding generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and financial statements, (ii) assessing the general application of GAAP principles in connection with our accounting for estimates, accruals and reserves, (iii) analyzing and evaluating our financial statements, (iv) understanding our internal controls and procedures for financial reporting; and (v) understanding audit committee functions, all of which are attributes of an audit committee financial expert and meet the experience requirements specified in the SEC's definition of “audit committee financial expert.” Further, like many small companies, it is difficult for the Company to attract and retain board members who qualify as “audit committee financial experts,” and competition for these individuals is significant.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
Klever Marketing, Inc.
Salt Lake City, Utah
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Klever Marketing, Inc. (A Development Stage Company) as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Klever Marketing, Inc. (A Development Stage Company) as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As disclosed in Note 3 to the financial statements, the Company does not generate significant revenue and has negative cash flow from operations. This raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 3. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result in the outcome of this uncertainty.
We were not engaged to audit, and we did not audit, the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows from inception (July 5, 1996) through December 31, 2013, and accordingly, we express no opinion or any other form of assurance on them.

(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to the Financial Statements
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION
Organization and Description of Business
Klever Marketing, Inc. (the “Company”) was organized under the laws of the State of Delaware in December 1989. The Company was in the development stage from 1989 to 1991. The Company was an operating company from 1992 to December 8, 1993 when it filed petitions for relief under Chapter 11 bankruptcy. The Company was inactive until July 5, 1996 when the Company merged with Klever Kart, Inc. in a reverse merger and changed its name to Klever Marketing, Inc. The Company has been in the development stage since that time.
The Company was formed for the purpose of creating a vehicle to obtain capital, to file and acquire patents, to seek out, investigate, develop, market and distribute an electronic shopping cart for in-store advertising, promotion and media content and retail shopper services, which have potential for profit.
NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A summary of the significant accounting policies consistently applied in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements are as follows:
Accounting Method
The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with US GAAP and reflect all adjustments (all of which are normal and recurring in nature) that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for fair presentation of the financial statements.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of and for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.
Valuation of Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets such as property and equipment, software, and intangible assets with definite useful lives are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable or in the period in which the held for sale criteria are met. For assets held and used, this analysis consists of comparing the asset’s carrying value to the expected future cash flows to be generated from the asset on an undiscounted basis. If the carrying amount of the asset is determined not to be recoverable, a write-down to fair value is recorded. Fair values are determined based on quoted market values, discounted cash flows, or external appraisals, as applicable. Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment at the individual asset or the asset group level for which the lowest level of independent cash flows can be identified.
Fixed Assets
Fixed assets consist of property and equipment and capitalized software costs and computer equipment as of December 31, 2013 and 2012.
F-15 |
KLEVER MARKETING, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to the Financial Statements
Property and Equipment
Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated economic useful lives of the related assets as follows:
Computer equipment | 3 years |
Office furniture and fixtures | 5-7 years |
Upon sale or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the determination of income or loss.
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Major overhauls and betterments are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated economic useful lives. Depreciation expense was $815 and $319 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.
Capitalized Software Development
The Company capitalizes software development costs incurred from the time technological feasibility has been obtained until the product is generally released to customers. Amortization of capitalized software begins when the products are available to customers and is done using the straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic life of the product which the Company expects to occur in FYE 2014. The Company achieved technological feasibility with regard to its mobile phone technology during the fourth quarter of 2010. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had capitalized software development costs of $422,330 and $291,343, respectively. No amortization was recorded for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.
Revenue Recognition
The Company is currently in the development stage and has no revenues from its operations.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company has no significant concentrations of credit risk.
Earnings Per Common Share
The computations of basic and fully diluted earnings per share of common stock are based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period of the financial statements, plus the common stock equivalents which would arise from the exercise of stock options and warrants outstanding during the period, or the exercise of convertible preferred stock. For the period ended December 31, 2013, common stock equivalents related to the conversion of preferred rights have been included in calculation of diluted earnings per share as shown in the table below. Common stock equivalents have not been included in the computations for the period ended December 31, 2012 because they are anti-dilutive.
Following is a reconciliation of the income (loss) per share for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively:

Notes to the Financial Statements
Intangibles
Intangible assets, consisting of patents and trademarks, are amortized on a straight-line basis over 5 years from the date the patent or trademark is issued. Intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested for impairment on an annual basis or when the facts and circumstances suggest that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recovered. At December 31, 2013, intangible assets have a cost of $105,273, accumulated amortization of $18,375, and had a net book value of $86,898. During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company wrote off intangible assets totaling $775,045 that were fully amortized that were no longer being utilized by the Company. As of December 31, 2012, intangible assets had a cost of $65,721, accumulated amortization of $3,051 and had a net book value of $62,670. Amortization expense of the Company’s existing intangible assets over the remaining life of the Company’s intangible assets will be $20,945 for the years 2014 to 2016, $17,893 for 2015, and $5,313 for 2016.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). Under this accounting standard, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between the bases of certain assets and liabilities for income tax and financial reporting purposes. The deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified according to the financial statement classification of the assets and liabilities generating the differences. Given the Company’s history of losses, the Company maintains a full valuation allowance with respect to any deferred tax assets.
ASC 740 requires a company to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based upon the technical merits of the position. If the more-likely-than-not threshold is met, a company must measure the uncertain tax position to determine the amount to recognize in the financial statements. Our uncertain tax positions relate to certain state tax issues for which we have recorded an estimated current liability for in the accompanying financial statements at December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012. There has been no significant change in the unrecognized tax benefit through December 31, 2013.
The Company did not have any uncertain tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease within the next 12 months. The Company includes interest and penalties arising from the underpayment of income taxes in the statements of operations in the provision for income taxes. As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had $6,423 and $5,328 of accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions.
Research and Development
The Company continues to develop additional technology which facilitates the use of in-store advertising and coupon services through various technologies. As time and technology have progressed, the system being developed by the Company comprises mobile and other state of the art technology that facilitates retailers and package good companies providing "product specific" point-of-purchase advertising to its customers using proprietary software. The Company is currently developing mobile smart phone technology that will provide similar functionality to the Klever-Kart System.
For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company incurred costs of $2,940 and $7,833 respectively, for research and development of the technology involved with developing its technologies.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company has adopted ASC 820-10-50, Fair Value Measurements. This guidance defines fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The three levels are defined as follows: Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 3 inputs to valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair measurement.
In determining fair value, the Company utilizes observable market data when available, or models that incorporate observable market data. In addition to market information, the Company incorporates transaction-specific details that, in management’s judgment, market participants would take into account in measuring fair value.
F-17 |
KLEVER MARKETING, INC.
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to the Financial Statements
In arriving at fair-value estimates, the Company utilizes the most observable inputs available for the valuation technique employed. If a fair-value measurement reflects inputs at multiple levels within the hierarchy, the fair-value measurement is characterized based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair-value measurement.
The carrying amounts reported in the accompanying balance sheets as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 for cash and current liabilities each qualify as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and expected realization and their current market rate of interest.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2012-02, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic350): Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment. This ASU permits an entity the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired. If the qualitative assessment supports the conclusion that it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of the asset exceeds its carrying amount, the entity would not need to perform the two-step quantitative impairment test. The focus of the guidance is to reduce the cost and complexity of performing impairment tests for indefinite-lived intangible assets other than goodwill, and to improve consistency in impairment testing among long-lived asset categories. This ASU is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed prior to the issuance of the final ASU, if an entity’s financial statements for the most recent annual or interim period have not yet been issued. This ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In October 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-04, Technical Corrections and Improvements. The amendments in this update cover a wide range of topics in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”). These amendments include technical corrections and improvements to the ASC and conforming amendments related to fair value measurements. The amendments in this update were effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of ASU 2012-04 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-11, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists. This update provides guidance on when to classify an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for: (1) a net operating loss carryforward, (2) a similar tax loss, or (3) a tax credit carryforward in the financial statements. Otherwise, such an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, should be classified in the financial statements as a liability. ASU 2013-11 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013.
The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN
As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company generated net income of $521,067 during the year ended December 31, 2013. The Company did not generate any revenue from product sales during the years ended December 31, 2013 or December 31, 2012. As of December 31, 2013, the Company’s current and total liabilities exceeded its current assets by $318,739. As of December 31, 2013, the Company had $51,654 of cash available on hand.
The Company did make significant progress in improving its financial conditions during the year ended December 31, 2013 by eliminating $1,284,221 of liabilities. This was accomplished by entering into settlement agreements with certain creditors, through management agreeing to forgive certain compensation obligations owed by the Company, and through certain obligations being eliminated as a result of the statute of limitations expiring. However, the Company will require additional funding during the next twelve months to finance the growth of its current operations and achieve its strategic objectives. These factors, as well as the uncertain conditions that the Company faces relative to capital raising activities, create substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company is seeking to raise additional capital through private placement offerings and is targeting strategic partners in an effort to finalize the development of its products and begin generating revenues. The Company raised $316,500 through the sale of common stock during the year ended December 31, 2013 and generated net proceeds of $94,485 from settlement of certain patent infringement cases. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the success of future capital offerings or alternative financing arrangements and expansion of its operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Management is actively pursuing additional sources of financing sufficient to generate enough cash flow to fund its operations through 2013. However, management cannot make any assurances that such financing will be secured.

As of December 31, 2013, the Company had net operating loss carry-forwards for federal income tax reporting purposes of approximately $14.1 million that may be offset against future taxable income through 2032. The Company has state net operating loss carry-forwards of $4.5 million that may be offset against future taxable income through 2027. Current tax laws limit the amount of loss available to be offset against future taxable income when a substantial change in ownership occurs. Therefore, the amount available to offset future taxable income may be limited. No tax benefit has been reported in the financial statements because the Company believes there is a 50% or greater chance that the carry-forwards will expire unused. Accordingly, the potential tax benefits of the loss carry-forwards are offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.
The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal and Utah jurisdictions. Tax years 2010 to current remain open to examination by U.S. federal and state tax authorities.
NOTE 7 – PREFERRED STOCK
Authorized Shares
In accordance with the Company’s bylaws, the Company has authorized a total of 2,000,000 shares of preferred stock with $0.01 par value for all classes.

NOTE 9 - STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS
The shareholders adopted the 1998 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan reserves 20,000,000 shares of common stock for issuance upon the exercise of options which may be granted from time-to-time to officers, directors and certain employees and consultants of the Company or its subsidiaries.

NOTE 10 – DEBT FORGIVENESS
The Company had certain claims against it for unpaid salary and benefits due to former officers and employees that existed on the balance sheet as accrued liabilities as of December 31, 2012. During the year ended December 31, 2013, management worked to reduce the Company’s total liabilities. As a result, the Company settled certain debt obligations using stock, cash, and certain obligations where the statute of limitations was believed to have run as described below.
Debts Settled for Stock via Escrow Account
During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with an existing shareholder, four creditors, and two investors whereby the Company contributed 1,200,000 shares of its restricted common stock, the existing shareholder contributed 1,000,000 free trading shares of the Company’s common stock, the creditors contributed the rights to $549,721 of outstanding debts owed by the Company, and two third party investors contributed $47,000 of cash into an escrow account held by the Company’s stock transfer agent. In exchange for the contributions made by each party, the existing shareholder received 1,200,000 shares of restricted common stock, the four creditors received 450,000 shares of free trading common stock valued at $13,500, the third party investors received 550,000 shares of the Company’s free trading common stock, and the Company received $47,000 in cash and settlement of $549,721 in outstanding debts resulting in a gain on Forgiveness of Debt totaling $536,221.
Debts Settled for Cash
During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company entered into settlement agreements with three creditors whereby the Company made cash payments totaling $25,450 in exchange for full settlement of $226,432 of outstanding liabilities. The Company recorded a gain on Forgiveness of Debt totaling $200,982 in connection with these transactions.
Debts Where Statute of Limitations Has Most Likely Barred Such Claims
During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company also wrote off $81,504 of obligations where the statute of limitations was believed to have run. It should be noted the statute of limitations is an affirmative defense that can only be definitively determined applicable by judicial ruling. However, the Company is reasonably certain based upon review by its legal counsel that a statute of limitations defense would bar the debts deemed discharged herein by the statute.
The settlement of these obligations coupled with the settlement of the obligations described above resulted in the Company recording a gain on Forgiveness of Debt totaling $818,708.
Contributed Services
During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company’s officers agreed to forgive $404,250 of compensation related to prior years that was owed to them and contribute the value of those services to the Company. As a result, the Company recorded an addition to paid-in capital for this amount.
For the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company’s officers agreed to not take any compensation which resulted in the Company recording $81,000 in contributed services for that period.
