Recall Studios, Inc.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 and 2017

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1 - Organization and Basis of Operations

 

Carolco Pictures, Inc. (formerly “Brick Top Productions, Inc” or the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida in February 2009 under the name “York Entertainment, Inc.” The Company changed its name to Brick Top Productions, Inc. in October 2010. In January 2015, the Company changed its name from Brick Top Productions, Inc. to Carolco Pictures, Inc. In addition, in January 2015, the Company changed its stock symbol from “BTOP” to “CRCO.” On October 17, 2017, the Company filed an articles of amendment to its articles of incorporation to change its corporate name from Carolco Pictures, Inc. to Recall Studio, Inc., pending approval from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. Effective November 29, 2017, following receipt of FINRA’s approval, the Company’s corporate name was changed to Recall Studio, Inc. and its stock symbol was changed to “BTOP.” In addition, effective immediately, the Company began to do business as Brick Top Productions.

 

Going Concern

 

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that it will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. As reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company had a stockholders’ deficit of $2,754,000 at March 31, 2018 and incurred a net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2018 of $695,000 and utilized net cash used in operating activities of $641,000. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date that the financial statements are issued. In addition, the Company’s independent public accounting firm in its audit report to the financial statements included in the 2017 Annual Report expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Management estimates that the current funds on hand and raising capital through proceeds from the sale of common stock subscriptions will be sufficient to continue operations through 2018. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to execute its strategy and in its ability to raise additional funds. Management is currently seeking additional funds, primarily through the issuance of equity securities for cash to operate its business. No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing or cause substantial dilution for our stock holders, in case or equity financing.

 

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Reverse Stock Split

 

In January 2017, the Company effected a 1-for-10,000 reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock. All shares and per-share amounts have been retroactively restated as of the earliest periods presented to reflect the stock split.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Those estimates and assumptions include depreciable lives of property and equipment, analysis of impairments of recorded goodwill, accruals for potential liabilities, assumptions made in valuing derivative liabilities and assumptions made in valuing stock instruments issued for services.

Principles of Consolidation

 

The Company’s consolidated subsidiaries and/or entities are as follows:

 

Name of consolidated

subsidiary or entity

 

State or other jurisdiction

of incorporation or organization

 

Date of incorporation or formation

(date of acquisition, if applicable)

 

Attributable

interest

 
           
York Productions, LLC  The State of Florida  October 22, 2008 (June 1, 2010)   60%
            
York Productions II, LLC  The State of Florida  June 13, 2013   60%
            
Recall Studios, Inc.  The State of Nevada  March 30, 2016 (July 27, 2016)   100%

 

The accompanying financial statements are consolidated and include the accounts of the Company and its majority owned subsidiaries. The consolidated accounts include 100% of the assets and liabilities of our majority owned subsidiaries, and the ownership interests of minority investors are recorded as a minority interest. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated. York Productions, LLC and York Productions II, LLC are currently inactive. On June 15, 2017, Recall Studios, Inc. entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement with Metropolitan Sound + Vision LLC, a South Carolina limited liability company. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company agreed to sell to Metro all of the shares of common stock of S&G Holdings, Inc., a Tennessee corporation doing business as High Five Entertainment owned by the Company, which constitute 75% of the issued and outstanding shares of S&G. The assets, liabilities and results of operations of S&G have been reclassified to discontinued operations for financial statement presentation in 2017.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company follows the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments and to measure the fair value of its financial instruments. The FASB Accounting Standards Codification establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

 

Level 1   Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.
     
Level 2   Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date.
     
Level 3   Pricing inputs that are generally unobservable inputs and not corroborated by market data.

 

Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.

 

The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.

 

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, other assets, accounts payable and accrued payroll, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments. The carrying values of notes payable and convertible notes approximate their fair values due to the fact that the interest rates on these obligations are based on prevailing market interest rates.

 

9

 

 

The carrying amount of the Company’s derivative liability of $1,980,000 was based on Level 3 measurements.

 

Non-Controlling Interest

 

Non-controlling interest represents the non-controlling interest holders’ proportionate share of the equity of the Company’s majority-owned subsidiaries. Non-controlling interest is adjusted for the non-controlling interest holders’ proportionate share of the earnings or losses and other comprehensive income (loss) and the non-controlling interest continues to be attributed its share of losses even if that attribution results in a deficit non-controlling interest balance. All Non-controlling interest was eliminated as part of the sale of S&G Holdings, Inc., a Tennessee corporation doing business as High Five Entertainment in 2017.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company’s Recall Studios subsidiary produces software applications for third-parties on a consulting basis. Revenues from these services are recognized when the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) the show/episode is complete, and in accordance with the terms of the arrangement, has been delivered or is available for immediate and unconditional delivery; (iii) the price to the customer is fixed and determinable; and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company periodically issues stock options and warrants to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing costs. The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to employees based on the authoritative guidance provided by FASB where the value of the award is measured on the date of grant and recognized as compensation expense on the straight-line basis over the vesting period. The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to non-employees in accordance with the authoritative guidance of the FASB where the value of the stock compensation is based upon the measurement date as determined at either a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete. Options and warrants granted to non-employees are revalued each reporting period to determine the amount to be recorded as an expense in the respective period. As the options and warrants vest, they are valued on each vesting date and an adjustment is recorded for the difference between the value already recorded and the then current value on the date of vesting. In certain circumstances where there are no future performance requirements by the non-employee, option and warrant grants are immediately vested and the total stock-based compensation charge is recorded in the period of the measurement date.

 

The fair value of the Company’s stock option and warrant grants are estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing model, which uses certain assumptions related to risk-free interest rates, expected volatility, expected life of the stock options or warrants, and future dividends. Compensation expense is recorded based upon the value derived from the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing model, and based on actual experience. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing model could materially affect compensation expense recorded in future periods.

 

Income (Loss) Per Share

 

Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution, using the treasury stock method that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the income (loss) of the Company. In computing diluted income (loss) per share, the treasury stock method assumes that outstanding options and warrants are exercised and the proceeds are used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. Options and warrants may have a dilutive effect under the treasury stock method only when the average market price of the common stock during the period exceeds the exercise price of the options and warrants.

For the three months ended March 31, 2018, warrants exercisable into 40,489 shares of common stock have been excluded because their impact on the income per share is anti-dilutive. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the calculation of diluted earnings per share included convertible Series B Preferred stock that can convert into 2,000,000 shares of common stock, convertible Series C Preferred stock that can convert into 2,848,982 shares of common stock, and notes that can convert into 6,108,456 shares of common stock. For the three months ended March 31, 2017, the calculation of diluted earnings per share included convertible Series A Preferred stock that can convert into 2,000,000 shares of common stock, convertible Series B Preferred stock that can convert into 81,023,982 shares of common stock, and notes that can convert into 4,341,150 shares of common stock.

 

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses a probability weighted average Black-Scholes-Merton models to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates through the March 31, 2018 reporting date.

 

The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive revenue recognition standard that will supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under current U.S. GAAP and replace it with a principle based approach for determining revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 will require that companies recognize revenue based on the value of transferred goods or services as they occur in the contract. The ASU also will require additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. ASU 2014-09 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted only in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods therein. Entities will be able to transition to the standard either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. The Company has adopted ASU 2014-09 in the first quarter of 2018. The adoption of ASU 2014-09 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases. ASU 2016-02 requires a lessee to record a right of use asset and a corresponding lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. ASU 2016-02 is effective for all interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-02 on the Company’s financial statements and disclosures.

 

July 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260); Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480); Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): (Part I) Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features, (Part II) Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests with a Scope Exception. ASU 2017-11 allows companies to exclude a down round feature when determining whether a financial instrument (or embedded conversion feature) is considered indexed to the entity’s own stock. As a result, financial instruments (or embedded conversion features) with down round features may no longer be required to be accounted for as derivative liabilities. A company will recognize the value of a down round feature only when it is triggered and the strike price has been adjusted downward. For equity-classified freestanding financial instruments, an entity will treat the value of the effect of the down round as a dividend and a reduction of income available to common shareholders in computing basic earnings per share. For convertible instruments with embedded conversion features containing down round provisions, entities will recognize the value of the down round as a beneficial conversion discount to be amortized to earnings. The guidance in ASU 2017-11 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, and the guidance is to be applied using a full or modified retrospective approach. The Company has early adopted ASU 2017-11 in the third quarter of 2017. The adoption of ASU 2017-11 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures.

 

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

Note 4– Convertible Notes Payable to Related Parties

 

Chairman and CEO

 

In July 2015, the Company issued convertible promissory notes to Alex Bafer, Chairman and CEO, in exchange for the cancellation of previously issued promissory notes in the aggregate of $530,000 and accrued interest of $13,000 for a total of $543,000. The notes are unsecured, bear interest of 5% per annum, matured on October 1, 2015 and are convertible to shares of common stock at a conversion price equal to the lowest closing stock price during the 20 trading days prior to conversion with a 50% discount.

 

In October 2015, the notes matured and became past due. As a result, the stated interest of 5% increased to 22% pursuant to the term of the notes. In July 2016, the Company and Mr. Bafer agreed to extend the maturity date of these notes to August 1, 2017 and cure the default. There were no other terms changed and no additional compensation paid. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the total outstanding note balance amounted to $434,000 and $434,000, and accrued interest of $145,000 and $140,000, respectively. The notes are currently past due.

 

Shareholder

 

On December 28, 2016, the Company issued an unsecured convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $50,000 to a shareholder. The note bears interest at 3% per annum, is due on March 24, 2017, and is convertible into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $4,000 per share. The note is currently past due. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, accrued interest of $2,000 and $1,000 is due, respectively.

 

Note 5- Derivative Liability

 

The FASB has issued authoritative guidance whereby instruments which do not have fixed settlement provisions are deemed to be derivative instruments. Certain warrants issued to investors and conversion features of notes payable did not have fixed settlement provisions because either their exercise prices will be lowered if the Company issues securities at lower prices in the future or the conversion price is variable. In addition, since the number of shares to be issued is not explicitly limited, the Company is unable to conclude that enough authorized and unissued shares are available to share settle the conversion option. In accordance with the FASB authoritative guidance, the conversion feature of the notes was separated from the host contract (i.e., the notes) and the fair value of the warrants have been recognized as a derivative and will be re-measured at the end of every reporting period with the change in value reported in the statement of operations.

 

16

 

 

The derivative liabilities were valued at the following dates using a Black-Scholes-Merton model with the following average assumptions:

 

   March 31, 2018  

December 31, 2017

 
Stock Price  $0.41   $.31 
Risk free interest rate   1.63-2.03%   0.84%
Expected Volatility   201%   476%
Expected life in years   0.42-0.92    0.25-0.79 
Expected dividend yield   0%   0%
           
Fair Value – Warrants  $0   $0 
Fair Value – Note Conversion Feature   1,980,000    1,867,000 
Total  $1,980,000   $1,867,000 

 

The risk-free interest rate was based on rates established by the Federal Reserve Bank. The Company uses the historical volatility of its common stock to estimate the future volatility for its common stock. The expected life of the derivative securities was determined by the remaining contractual life of the derivative instrument. For derivative instruments that already matured, the Company used the estimated life. The expected dividend yield was based on the fact that the Company has not paid dividends to its common stockholders in the past and does not expect to pay dividends to its common stockholders in the future.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company recorded $2,881,000 in derivative liability as a result of conversion features from the issuance of new convertible notes payables (see Note 3). In addition the Company recorded a gain of $2,768,000 to account for the change in fair value of the derivative liabilities related to the conversion features from December 31, 2017 to March 31, 2018. As of March 31, 2018, the derivative liability amounted to $1,980,000.

Note 9 – Discontinued Operations

 

On June 15, 2017, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement with Metropolitan Sound + Vision LLC, a South Carolina limited liability company. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company agreed to sell to Metro all of the shares of common stock of S&G Holdings, Inc., a Tennessee corporation doing business as High Five Entertainment owned by the Company, which constitute 75% of the issued and outstanding shares of S&G. Pursuant to current accounting guidelines, the business component is reported as a discontinued operations.

 

Pursuant to the Agreement, at the closing of the Transaction, the Company was to deliver to Metro 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of S&G owned by the Company, and Metro was required to pay for such stock as follows: An initial payment of $10,000 was required to be made at the closing, and thereafter, at the end of each fiscal quarter, beginning at the end the third fiscal quarter of 2017, Metro shall pay the Company 5% of gross revenues collected during the quarter by Metro via the exploitation of S&G’s assets, up to a lifetime maximum of $590,000.

 

The Agreement requires Metro to use its best professional efforts to generate revenue from the exploitation of S&G’s assets, and if the Company has not received a total of at least $265,000 of the $590,000 lifetime maximum purchase price from Metro before July 1, 2022, the Company has the right to repurchase the stock and assets of the S&G from Metro for $10,000.

 

The Company recognized a gain on the sale of S&G of $57,000 consisting of the assumption by the buyer of the net liabilities of S&G of $236,000 offsets by the elimination of the non-controlling interest of S&G of $189,000 and the purchase price consideration of $10,000. The remainder of the purchase price will be recognized when collectability can be determined.

In May 2018 the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement in connection with the issuance of a $56,000 convertible note. The note carries interest of 8% per year and is due and payable on May 3, 2019. The outstanding amounts under the note are convertible, at the option of the holder, into shares of common stock of the Company, at a conversion price calculated at 52% of the lowest sale price for the common stock during the 20 consecutive trading days immediately preceding the conversion date.

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

 

Unless otherwise indicated, references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “we,” “us,” and “our” are to the Company, unless the context requires otherwise. The following discussion and analysis by our management of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed interim financial statements and the accompanying related notes included in this quarterly report and our audited financial statements and related notes and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Overview

 

We have been recognized as an award-winning feature film and television specials production company. Through recent corporate restructurings, as discussed herein, we have re-oriented to the technology side of the burgeoning Augmented Reality (“AR”) and Virtual Reality (“VR”) markets.

 

We acquired a wholly owned subsidiary, Recall Studios, Inc., in July 2016 (“Recall Studios”). Using Recall Studios’ talent and technology, we focus on advancing VR and AR technologies and have two patents pending to create content and immersive, non-liner experiences, filling the demand attendant to the increased production of VR viewing devices absent a corresponding increase in content production.

 

Recent Developments

 

On February 1, 2018, Mr. Esposito, the interim Chief Executive Officer, Chief Legal Officer and member of the board of directors of the Company resigned from his position as the Company’s interim Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Esposito will retain his positions as the Company’s Chief Legal Officer and a member of the Company’s board of directors.

 

Also on February 1, 2018, the Company’s board of directors appointed Mr. Bafer as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board.

 

In connection with Mr. Bafer’s appointment as Chief Executive Officer of the Company, the Company and Mr. Bafer entered into an Executive Employment Agreement (the “Bafer Employment Agreement”) effective February 1, 2018. Pursuant to the terms of the Bafer Employment Agreement, the Company agreed to employ Mr. Bafer as Chief Executive Officer for a term of one year, which term will automatically renew for successive one-year periods unless either party provides 30 days’ prior written notice. In exchange for Mr. Bafer’s services as Chief Executive Officer, the Company will pay Mr. Bafer an annual salary of $250,000, subject to review and adjustment as provided in the Bafer Employment Agreement. Mr. Bafer will also be eligible to receive a performance-based bonus. The Company also granted Mr. Bafer an option to purchase 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the Company’s 2014 Equity Incentive Stock Plan (the “Plan”).

 

The Bafer Employment Agreement will terminate upon Mr. Bafer’s death or permanent disability or for Cause (as hereinafter defined). Pursuant to the terms of the Bafer Employment Agreement, “Cause” includes termination for:

 

  (i) Material breach of the Bafer Employment Agreement by Mr. Bafer,
  (ii) Intentional nonperformance or mis-performance of such duties, or refusal to abide by or comply with the reasonable directives of his superior officers, or the Company’s policies and procedures,
  (iii) Mr. Bafer’s negligence in the performance of his material duties under the Bafer Employment Agreement,
  (iv) Mr. Bafer’s willful dishonesty, fraud or misconduct with respect to the business or affairs of the Company, that in the reasonable judgment of the Board of Directors materially and adversely affects the Company,
  (v) Mr. Bafer’s conviction of, or a plea of nolo contendere to, a felony or other crime involving moral turpitude, or
  (vi) The commission of any act in direct or indirect competition with or materially detrimental to the best interests of the Company that is in breach of the Company’s fiduciary duties of care, loyalty and good faith to the Company.

 

“Cause” does not include any actions or circumstances constituting Cause under (i) or (ii) above if Mr. Bafer cures such actions or circumstances within 30 days of receipt of written notice from the Company.

 

Mr. Bafer is subject to a 12-month non-competition clause pursuant to the terms of the Bafer Employment Agreement.

 

Mr. Bafer and the Company also entered into an Agreement for Chairman of Board of Directors (the “COB Agreement”) in connection with Mr. Bafer’s appointment as Chairman of the Board. The COB Agreement has a term of one year, and will continue for as long as Mr. Bafer is elected as Chairman of the Board. Pursuant to the terms of the COB Agreement, the Company agreed to grant Mr. Bafer an option to purchase 250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the Plan.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 and 2017

 

  

Three Months Ended

March 31,

 
   2018   2017 
Revenue  $0   $5,000 
Cost of goods sold  $0   $0 
Operating expenses  $840,000   $142,000 
Income (loss) from continuing operations  $(695,000)  $6,663,000 
Net income (loss) from discontinued operations  $0   $(33,000)
Net income (loss)  $(695,000)  $6,630,000 

 

Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 were $0 and $5,000, respectively.

 

Cost of goods sold for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 were $0 and $0, respectively.

 

Operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2018 totaled $840,000, compared to $142,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase of $698,000 is directly related to an increase in compensation expenses of $85,000 as well as $404,000 increase in consulting fees and $125,000 increase in advertising and marketing costs during the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2017.

 

The Company has realized a net loss of $695,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, compared to a net income of $6,630,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The reduction in net income of $7,325,000 is primarily due to the change in fair value of derivatives associated with warrants and convertible notes outstanding, which amounted to a gain of $6,807,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017 as compared $2,768,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. In addition there were $2,137,000 of financing costs in the three months ended March 31, 2018 and amortization of debt discount of $364,000 with no corresponding amounts for these expenses in the three months ended March 31, 2017.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

   Three Months Ended March 31, 
   2018   2017 
Net Cash Used in Operating Activities  $(641,000)  $(83,000)
Net Cash Provided by Investing Activities  $0   $0 
Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities  $983,000   $0 
Net Change in Cash  $342,000   $(83,000)

 

As of March 31, 2018, our total assets were $437,000 and our total liabilities were $3,191,000 and we had negative working capital of $2,763,000. Our financial statements report a net loss of $695,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and net income of $6,630,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

 

We have suffered recurring losses from operations. The continuation of our company is dependent upon our company attaining and maintaining profitable operations and raising additional capital as needed. In this regard, we have raised additional capital through equity offerings and loan transactions, and, in the short term, will seek to raise additional capital in such manners to fund our operations. We do not currently have any third-party financing available in the form of loans, advances, or commitments. Our officers and shareholders have not made any written or oral agreement to provide us additional financing. There can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to raise capital on terms and conditions that are deemed acceptable to us.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of March 31, 2018, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.

 

21

 

 

As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company had a stockholders’ deficit of $ 2,754,000 at March 31, 2018, incurred a net loss from operations of $695,000 and used cash in operating activities of $641,000 for the period then ended. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date that the financial statements are issued.

 

The Company is attempting to produce sufficient revenue; however, the Company’s cash position may not be sufficient to support its daily operations. While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to produce sufficient revenue and in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that effect. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to further implement its business plan and generate sufficient revenues and in its ability to raise additional funds.

 

In addition, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, in its report on the Company’s December 31, 2017 consolidated financial statements, has raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

We have identified the following policies below as critical to our business and results of operations. Our reported results are impacted by the application of the following accounting policies, certain of which require management to make subjective or complex judgments. These judgments involve making estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may significantly impact quarterly or annual results of operations. For all of these policies, management cautions that future events rarely develop exactly as expected, and the best estimates routinely require adjustment. Specific risks associated with these critical accounting policies are described in the following paragraphs.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments. The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses a probability weighted average Black-Scholes-Merton models to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates through the September 30, 2017, reporting date. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

See Note 2 in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of recent accounting policies.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

Not required for smaller reporting companies.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, which are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and principal financial officer, an evaluation was performed on the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based on that evaluation, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and principal financial officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this report due to the Company’s limited resources and limited number of employees. To mitigate the current limited resources and limited employees, we rely heavily on direct management oversight of transactions, along with the use of legal and outsourced accounting professionals. As we grow, we expect to increase our number of employees, which, we believe, will enable us to implement adequate segregation of duties within the internal control framework.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 or 15d-15 of the Exchange Act that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
