NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Organization and business
First Equity Properties, Inc. is a Nevada based corporation organized in December 19, 1996 and the Company is headquartered in Dallas, TX. The Company’s principal line of business and source of revenue is currently investments and interest on notes receivable. The Company is currently in the business of real estate investing. FEPI is a publicly traded company; however, no trading market presently exists for the shares of common stock and its value is therefore not determinable.
Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP, have been condensed or omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations, although management believes the disclosures are adequate to prevent the information presented from being misleading. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring matters) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2020. Operating results for the six month period ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any subsequent quarter or for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021.
Cost capitalization
Costs related to planning and developing a project are capitalized and classified as Real Estate development costs in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. We capitalized certain operating expenses until development is substantially complete, but no later than one year from the cessation of major development activity.
Newly issued accounting pronouncements
We have considered all other newly issued accounting guidance that is applicable to our operations and the preparation of our statements, including that which we have not yet adopted. We do not believe that any such guidance will have a material effect on our financial position or results of operation.
NOTE 2. CHANGE OF CONTROL
A Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) was made, entered into and closed as of April 7, 2021, by and among A Way Financial, Inc., a Delaware Business Corporation (the “Purchaser”) and TPS Income, Inc., and Nevada Sea Investments, Inc. (the “Sellers”).
Sellers were, prior to the transaction closing the beneficial owner of the following shares of the Company: (i)TPS Income, Inc.(“TPS”) owned 37.48%; and (ii) Nevada Sea Investments, Inc.(“Nevada Sea”)owned 37.82% of shares of all issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock which were held in the respective name of the Sellers.

Total note and account receivable – related party | $ | 752,250 | $ | 750,523 |
NOTE 4. RELATED PARTIES TRANSACTIONS
Transactions involving related parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm’s length basis due to the absence of free market forces that naturally exist in business dealings between two or more unrelated entities. Related party transactions may not always be favorable to our business and may include terms, conditions and agreements that are not necessarily beneficial to or in best interest of our company.
The Company had an administrative agreement, through change in control, with Pillar Income Asset Management, Inc., an affiliated entity, for accounting and administrative services. The total expense of the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $3,015 which is included in General and Administrative expenses of the Statements of Operations.
NOTE 5. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification, (“ASC”) No. 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. ASC 740 requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting for income taxes. In the event differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities result in deferred tax assets, ASC 740 requires an evaluation of the probability of being able to realize the future benefits indicated.
Recognition of the benefits of deferred tax assets will require the Company to generate future taxable income. There is no assurance that the Company will generate earnings in future years.
NOTE 6. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
We are closely monitoring the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of our business and across our portfolio. While we did not experience significant disruptions during 2020 from the COVID-19 pandemic, we are unable to predict the impact the COVID-19 pandemic will have on its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows due to numerous uncertainties.
The Company has evaluated subsequent events through August 10, 2021, the date the financial statements were available to be issued and has determined that there are none to be reported.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. We caution investors that any forward-looking statements presented in this report, or which management may make orally or in writing from time to time, are based on beliefs and assumptions made by, and information currently available to, management.

Such statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions and are not guarantees of future performance, which may be affected by known and unknown risks, trends, uncertainties and factors that are beyond our control. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated or projected by the forward-looking statements. We caution you that while forward-looking statements reflect our good-faith beliefs when we make them, they are not guarantees of future performance and are impacted by actual events when they occur after we make such statements. Accordingly, investors should use caution in relying on forward-looking statements, which are based on results and trends at the time they are made, to anticipate future results or trends.
