(“Klever” or the “Company”) and the exhibits attached hereto contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward looking statements concern the Company’s anticipated results and developments in the Company’s operations in future periods, planned development of the Company’s technology, plans related to its business and other matters that may occur in the future. These statements relate to analyses and other information that are based on forecasts of future results, estimates of amounts not yet determinable and assumptions of management. Such forward-looking statements include, among others, those statements including the words “expects”, “anticipates”, “intends”, “believes” and similar language. Our actual results may differ significantly from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in the section “Risk Factors.” We undertake no obligation to publicly release any revisions to the forward-looking statements or reflect events or circumstances after the date of this report.

 

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, there are a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from such forward-looking statements. These factors include among others: 

 

  · Our ability to raise sufficient capital to fund the development of our technology and continue to fund operating expenses;

 

  · Our ability to get our technology to work in accordance with our technical specifications;

 

  · Our ability to attract customers to our products once they are developed;

 

  · Our ability to attract and retain the necessary personnel with the expertise needed to ensure that we can operate the Company effectively;

 

  · Actions or inactions of third-party contractors and vendors;

 

  · Our ability to successfully patent and protect our intellectual property;

 

  · The potential that our competitors will get their products to market ahead of us;

 

  · General economic conditions.

 

This list is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect our forward-looking statements. Some of the important risks and uncertainties that could affect forward-looking statements are described further under the sections titled “Description of the Business”, “Risk Factors and Uncertainties”, and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis”. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, believed, estimated or expected. We caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. We disclaim any obligation subsequently to revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.

PART I

 

ITEM 1.  DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS

 

General

 

Klever Marketing, Inc. is engaged in obtaining capital in order to file and acquire patents, to seek out and to investigate, develop, manufacture 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.

 

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 substantial progress on its mobile application development and implementation. The software programming of the consumer KleverShop 1.0 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 a revised graphical user interface, and successfully tested in our demonstration store.

 

2014 Mobile Application Development and Implementation

 

In 2014 the Company’s business efforts concentrated in two areas: modifying the software to meet retailer’s refined business requirements and expanding our contacts within the retail grocery industry. We completed our Wholesome Choice Market demonstration test in March 2014, and the feedback led us to conclude that to best serve our clients we needed to 1) add a loyalty program with points and 2) store branding and license our KleverShop software, allowing markets to brand the application as their own. Following further discussions with our investors, we also decided that now was the time to upgrade our software to an entirely new development platform that would be much more efficient and effective in addressing the desired enhancements.

 

Accordingly, we have been very busy and are excited about the software tools in our new upgrade, designated KleverShop 2.0. Our new development platform is far more efficient. Our couponing options have been greatly expanded. Our user interface has built-in flexibility to brand to individual retailer needs. And we have built in our Loyalty Program. Our KleverPoints program gives retailers the opportunity to award points for various shopping functions that lead to greater basket uplift. Points are awarded for checking in, for redeeming coupons and for total basket size.

 

At the same time we are also upgrading our KleverDash platform. We have envisioned a number of ways to make this tool even more useful to suppliers and retailers, with easier coupon generation, more types of coupons and expanded graphics/analytics.

 

Our new software platform not only has far better built-in documentation but also allows us to embed hundreds of software tests that greatly reduce the debugging process. On top of that we have purchased a Retalix POS test center to further enable us to eliminate any post-development bugs. And we are seeking certification from Retalix to be an approved 3rd party services provider.

To expand our marketing efforts, the Company brought on a Sales and Marketing consultant with considerable retailer and supplier experience. We are pursuing two sales fronts: 1) Marketing to retail grocers in Southern California to establish a retailer base with established regional grocers, and 2) Marketing through retail grocery associations who supply support services and tools to a broad range of retail grocers. The latter opportunity appears to be very promising for Klever, and we are optimistic on the outcome. In both cases it is important to remember that retail grocers have not been known for their rapid adoption of new technologies. Klever is well aware of this tendency and is committed to persistence and “aggressive patience” in its marketing effort.

As a further step to prepare for revenue operations, in December Klever formed a Digital Coupon Redemption Division to focus on retail store application and operations using our Klever digital products (KleverShop®, KleverDash®, KleverBank®, KleverPoints – all in the KleverKloud®). This division is preparing for installation in retail stores, daily operations, accounting of digital redemptions and clearing, and technical support to these retail customers. Agreements and other supporting documentation are also being developed.

 

Anticipated Business Development in the Next 12 Months

 

In 2015, the Company’s goals are clear. Wrap up the programming and testing of KleverShop 2.0 and release it into the marketplace for revenue operations. Build the client base from bottom up by securing innovative grocers who want to take the lead in digital coupon marketing. And market our product top down from associations who provide services to multiple grocers. From there we need to be prepared for rapid growth.

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.

 

We need to continue as a going concern if our business is to succeed.

 

Our independent accountant’s report to our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014, 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 or sufficient revenues, 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 we are not currently generating revenue or net 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 pay its obligations. As a result, the Company will require additional financing to execute its business plan through raising additional capital and/or beginning to generate revenue.

 

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 Company’s management is currently engaged in actively pursuing multiple financing options in order to obtain the capital necessary to execute the Company’s business plan.

 

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 most likely 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.

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 7.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company generated a net loss of $277,987. 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, 2014, the Company generated a net loss of $277,987 as compared to a net income of $521,067 for the year ended December 31, 2013 primarily through debt reducing activities. The loss incurred in 2014 is primarily due to the Company incurring operating expenses of $368,802, which was partially offset by patent infringement litigation settlements of $81,400 and debt forgiveness of $10,609. 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 Company remains in the product development stage and generated no revenue in 2014 or 2013. During 2013 and 2014, the Company’s expenditures were directed at developing software for its mobile phone applications.

 

General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2014 decreased by $79,305 or 21.4% to $291,734 from $371,039 for the year ended December 31, 2013.  The primary reason for the overall decrease in general and administrative expenses is due to decreased costs for accounting fees, stock promotion fees and outside services. Accounting fees decreased from $53,599 in 2013 to $35,228 in 2014 primarily due to lower fees for SEC reporting. Stock promotion fees decreased by $36,543 in 2014 as compared to 2013 due to the Company not hiring a third party to promote its stock in 2014 as well as receiving a $10,000 refund in 2014 from a stock promotion that took place in 2013. Outside services decreased by 34,561 in 2014 as compared to 2013 due to lower costs for third party consultants. The decreases were offset by increased costs for legal fees and depreciation and amortization. Legal fees increased by $5,199 and depreciation and amortization increased by $7,128.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $65,864 related to certain patents and capitalized software costs where the carrying value exceeded the estimated fair value. The Company did not record an impairment loss for the year ended December 31, 2013.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2014 research and development costs increased by 281.1% from $2,940 in 2013 to $11,204 in 2014. During 2014, the Company incurred more costs to develop its technology than it did in 2013 primarily due to the Company setting up a demonstration unit that they can use to show perspective customer and investors.

Other income (expense) decreased to $92,009 in 2014 compared to $896,242 in 2013. In 2014, the Company received net proceeds from settlement of patent infringement cases of $81,400 as well as $10,609 of debt forgiveness. 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 was $1,194 for the year ended December 31, 2014 and remained consistent with income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2013 of $1,196. The biggest component of income tax expense in both years is the interest and penalties accrued during both years that are 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, 2014, the Company was able to sell 1,750,000 shares of restricted common stock for $91,500. During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company invested $70,881 in capitalized software development, and $10,631 in its patents and trademarks for its intellectual property.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company recorded $10,609 of debt forgiveness income relating to certain obligations where the statute of limitations had expired.

 

As of December 31, 2014, our cash position was $23,194, compared with $51,654 as of December 31, 2013. 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 $41,948 and $148,023 for operating activities for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The decrease in cash flows used in operating activities is primarily due to a non-cash charge of $65,863 for impairment, coupled with increases in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $111,613, partially offset by a decrease in net income of $799,054 and a decrease in debt forgiveness income of $808,099.

 

Cash flows used by investing activities – The Company used $81,512 of cash flows in investing activities for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to $108,428 for the year ended December 31, 2013.

  · The product launch may take longer to implement than planned or may not be successful.

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.

 

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, 2014, 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.

 

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, 2014, the Company's internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on the criteria in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the COSO.

 

8
 

 

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:

 

  · Pertain to the maintenance of records in reasonable detail accurately that fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Company's assets;
     
  · 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
     
  · 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 year ended December 31, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Controls and Procedures.

 

Changes in internal controls. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

The Company has taken limited steps to meet its Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) Section 404 compliance requirements and implement procedures to assure financial reports are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and therefore fairly represent the results and condition of the Company. We are not materially compliant with the Section 404 requirements due to economic constraints.

ITEM 10.  DIRECTORS EXECUTIVE OFFICERS, PROMOTERS AND CONTROL PERSONS; COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(a) OF THE EXCHANGE ACT

 

Executive Officers and Directors

 

The following table sets forth the name, age, and position of each executive officer and director of the Company:

Paul has substantial entrepreneurial experience managing and owning controlling interest in HelpUSolve, LLC which operates a number of divisions with products ranging from filtered breathing masks (EnviroAir), food service industry cup liners, script writing, screen plays and theatrical productions. Paul also brings substantial and diverse fundraising abilities and negotiating skills to the Board.

 

Robert A. Campbell age 72 retired from Parsons Corporation, a large engineering and program management Company, where he served as senior manager and director of program operations for projects and operations around the world.

Changes to Executive Officers and Directors

 

None

 

Audit Committee

 

As of December 31, 2014, 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. as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, 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. as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, 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.

KLEVER MARKETING, INC.

Notes to the Financial Statements

 

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION

 

Klever Marketing, Inc. (the “Company”) was created to develop, market and distribute an electronic shopping cart device for in-store advertising, promotion and media content and retail shopper services and has not commenced its planned principal operations. The Company’s activities since inception have consisted principally of developing various applications of its electronic shopping cart concept including its mobile application for smart phones which the Company is currently testing in retail supermarkets, obtaining patents and trademarks related to its technology, and raising capital. The Company’s activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties including failing to secure additional funding needed to finalize development of the Company’s technology and to commercialize its product in a profitable manner.

 

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, 2014 and 2013.

 

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. The Company recorded an impairment loss of $65,864 for the year ended December 31, 2014 related to certain costs for capitalized software and patents that management for which management believes the fair value are zero. The Company did record an impairment loss for the year ended December 31, 2013.

 

Fixed Assets

 

Fixed assets consist of property and equipment and capitalized software costs and computer equipment as of December 31, 2014 and 2013.

 

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

 

F-8
 

 

KLEVER MARKETING, INC.

Notes to the Financial Statements

 

 

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 $1,608 and $815 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.

 

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 2015. The Company achieved technological feasibility with regard to its mobile phone technology during the fourth quarter of 2010. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had capitalized software development costs of $451,706 and $422,330, respectively. No amortization was recorded for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company currently has no revenues from its operations.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company has no significant concentrations of credit risk.

 

Income (Loss) Per Common Share

 

The computations of basic and fully diluted income (loss) 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, 2014, 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, 2014 because they are anti-dilutive.

KLEVER MARKETING, INC.

Notes to the Financial Statements

 

Following is a reconciliation of the income (loss) per share for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively:

 

   Year Ending December 31, 
   2014   2013

Net income (loss)  $(0.01)  $0.01 
           
Diluted          
Net income (loss)  $(0.01)  $0.01 

 

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, 2014, intangible assets have a cost of $96,151, accumulated amortization of $31,452, and had a net book value of $64,699. As of December 31, 2013, intangible assets had a cost of $105,273, accumulated amortization of $18,375 and had a net book value of $86,898. Amortization expense of the Company’s existing intangible assets over the remaining life of the Company’s intangible assets will be $19,232 for the years 2015 to 2016, $17,141 for 2017, $7,439 for 2018, and $1,105 for 2019.

 

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, 2014 and December 31, 2013. There has been no significant change in the unrecognized tax benefit through December 31, 2014.

 

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, 2014 and 2013, the Company had $7,513 and $6,423 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.

KLEVER MARKETING, INC.

Notes to the Financial Statements

 

 

For the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company incurred costs of $11,204 and $2,940 respectively, for research and development of the technology involved with developing its technologies.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The FASB provides the framework for measuring fair value. ASC 820-10-50, Fair Value Measurements, provides guidance that 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.

 

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, 2014 and 2013 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

 

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date or earlier if allowed. If not discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.

 

Adoption of ASU 2014-10 Development Stage Entities

 

In June 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) ASU 2014-10 Development Stage Entities. The amendments in ASU 2014-10 remove the definition of a development stage entity from Topic 915 Development Stage Entities, thereby removing the distinction between development stage entities and other reporting entities from US GAAP. In addition, the amendments eliminate the requirements for development stage entities to (1) present inception-to-date information in the statements of operations, cash flows, and shareholder’s equity, (2) label the financial statements as those of a development stage entity, (3) disclose a description of the development stage activities in which the entity is engaged, and (4) disclose in the first year in which the entity is no longer a development stage entity that in prior years it had been in the development stage. The amendments also clarify that the guidance in Topic 275, Risks and Uncertainties, is applicable to entities that have not commenced planned principal operations. ASU 2014-10 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods therein. The Company may early adopt ASU 2014-10 for any annual reporting period or interim period for which the entity’s financial statements have not yet been issued.

 

F-11
 

 

KLEVER MARKETING, INC.

Notes to the Financial Statements

 

The Company adopted this standard effective April 1, 2014. The Company’s financial statements have been impacted by the adoption of this ASU mainly by the removal of inception-to-date information in the Company’s statements of operations, cash flows, and stockholders’ equity.

 

ASU 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The amendments in ASU 2014-09 affects any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards (e.g., insurance contracts or lease contracts). This ASU will supersede the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605 Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific guidance, and creates a Topic 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

 

The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve that core principle, an entity should apply the following steps:

 

Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with a customer.

Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract.

Step 3: Determine the transaction price.

Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract.

Step 5: Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

 

ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early application is not permitted. The Company’s current financial statements will not be affected by the adoption of ASU 2014-09 as the Company has not recognized revenues.

 

NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN

 

As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company generated a net loss of $277,987 during the year ended December 31, 2014. The Company did not generate any revenue from product sales during the years ended December 31, 2014 or December 31, 2013. As of December 31, 2014, the Company’s current and total liabilities exceeded its current assets by $527,363. As of December 31, 2014, the Company had $23,194 of cash available on hand.

 

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 principally through private placement offerings and is targeting strategic partners in an effort to finalize the development of its products and begin generating revenues. 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 calendar year 2015. However, management cannot make any assurances that such financing will be secured.

Notes to the Financial Statements

 

As of December 31, 2014, the Company had net operating loss carry-forwards for federal income tax reporting purposes of approximately $14.6 million that may be offset against future taxable income through 2034. The Company has state net operating loss carry-forwards of $5.0 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 2011 to current remain open to examination by U.S. federal and state tax authorities.

NOTE 9 – DEBT FORGIVENESS

 

2014 Debt Forgiveness

 

During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company wrote off $10,609 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.

 

2013 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.

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.
