Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS
GiveMePower Corporation is one of the few black-controlled public companies in America. The Company operates and manages a portfolio of financial services assets and operations to empower black persons in the United States through financial tools and resources. Givemepower is primarily focused on: (1) creating and empowering local black businesses in urban America; and (2) creating real estate properties and businesses in opportunity zones and other distressed neighborhood across America. The Company’s financial services division has not started operations, but intends to conduct operations in the areas of private equity and business lending, investing in young black entrepreneurs and seeding their viable business plans and ideas. The Company’s real estate division invests in Opportunity Zones, Affordable Housing, and specialized real estate properties.
GiveMePower Corporation (the “PubCo” or “Company”), a Nevada corporation, was incorporated on June 7, 2001, to sell software geared to end users and developers involved in the design, manufacture, and construction of engineered products located in Canada and the United States. The PubCo has been dormant and non-operating since year 2009. PubCo is a public reporting company registered with the Securities Exchange Commissioner (“SEC”). In November 2009, the Company filed Form 15D, Suspension of Duty to Report, and as a result, the Company was not required to file any SEC forms since November 2009.
On December 31, 2019, PubCo sold one Special 2019 series A preferred share (“Series A Share”) for $38,000 to Goldstein Franklin, Inc. (“Goldstein”), a California corporation. One Series A Share is convertible to 100,000,000 shares of common stocks at any time. The Series A Share also provided with 60% voting rights of the PubCo. On the same day, Goldstein sold one-member unit of Alpharidge Capital, LLC (“Alpharidge”), a California limited liability corporation, representing 100% member owner of Alpharidge. As a result, Alpharidge become a wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo as of December 31, 2019.
The transaction above was accounted for as a “reverse merger” and recapitalization amongst PubCo, Goldstein, and Alpharidge since the stockholders of Alpharidge will have the significant influence and the ability to elect or appoint or to remove a majority of the members of the governing body of the combined entity immediately following the completion of the transaction, the stockholders of PubCo will have the significant influence and the ability to elect or appoint or to remove a majority of the members of the governing body of the combined entity, and PubCo’s senior management will dominate the management of the combined entity immediately following the completion of the transaction. Accordingly, Alpharidge will be deemed to be the accounting acquirer in the transaction and, consequently, the transaction is treated as a recapitalization of the PubCo. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities and the historical operations that are reflected in the financial statements are those of Alpharidge and are recorded at the historical cost basis of Alpharidge. As a result, Alpharidge is the surviving company and the financial statements presented are historical financial accounts of Alpharidge.
They manufacture and wholesale custom processed beef, pork, chicken, lamb, veal and seafood. In addition, they are redistributors of a wide variety of dry goods, frozen foods, disposables and janitorial products. Their sales, distribution and finance processes are very efficient and can be expanded to add new product lines, including fresh produce and dairy.
As discussed in Note 12, on September 16, 2020, as part of its sales of unregistered securities to certain corporation related to its President and CEO, the Company, for $3 in cash and 1,000,000 shares of its preferred stock, acquired 100% interest in, and control of Community Economic Development Capital, LLC (“CED Capital”), a California Limited Liability Company, and 97% of the issued and outstanding shares of Cannabinoid Biosciences, Inc. (“CBDX”), a California corporation. This transaction was accounted for under the Consolidation Method using the variable interest entity (VIE) model wherein the Company consolidates all investees operating results if the Company expects to assume more than 50% of another entity’s expected losses or gains.
The consolidated financial statements of the Company therefore include its wholly owned subsidiaries of Alpharidge Capital LLC. (“Alpharidge”), Community Economic Development Capital, LLC. (“CED Capital”), and Cannabinoid Biosciences, Inc. (“CBDX”), and subsidiaries, in which GiveMePower has a controlling voting interest and entities consolidated under the variable interest entities (“VIE”) provisions of ASC 810, “Consolidation” (“ASC 810”), after elimination of intercompany transactions and accounts.
Current Business and Organization - Alpharidge

· MWCF financial empowerment – MWCF would utilize operate the tools of financial education/training, mergers and acquisitions, private equity and business lending to invest and empower young black entrepreneurs, seeding their viable business plans and ideas and creating jobs in their communities. MWCF is primarily focused on: (1) creating and empowering local black businesses in urban America; and (2) creating real estate in opportunity zones and other distressed neighborhood across America.
· Cash Management, Opportunistic and Event-Driven Investments: The Company keeps no more than 10% of its total assets in liquid cash or investments portfolio, which is actively managed by its directors and officers and invest primarily in equity investments on a long and short basis. The Company’s cash management policy which requires that the Company actively invests its excess cash into stocks, bonds and other securities is intended to provide the company greater levels of liquidity and current income. The Company uses proprietary trading models to capitalize on real-time market anomalies and generate ongoing income in the forms similar to hedge funds. Where necessary, the Company uses seeded entities to pursue real-time market transactions in publicly traded securities including but not limited to stocks, bonds, options, futures, forex, warrants, and other instruments.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) promulgated in the United States of America. Inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Principles of Consolidation
The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of GiveMePower Corporation and all of its controlled subsidiary companies. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Investments in business entities in which the company does not have control, but it has the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies (generally 20% to 50% ownership) are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Operating results of acquired businesses are included in the Consolidated Statements of Income from the date of acquisition. The company consolidates variable interest entities if it is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the entity. Operating results for variable interest entities in which the company is determined to be the primary beneficiary are included in the Consolidated Statements of Income from the date such determination is made. For convenience and ease of reference, the company refers to the financial statement caption “Income before Income Taxes and Equity Income” as “pre-tax income” throughout the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
COVID-19 Risks, Impacts and Uncertainties
COVID-19 Risks, Impacts and Uncertainties — the company is subject to the risks arising from COVID-19's impacts on the residential real estate industry. The Company’s management believes that these impacts, which include but are not limited to the following, could have a significant negative effect on its future financial position, results of operations, and cash flows: (i) prohibitions or limitations on in-person activities associated with residential real estate transactions; (ii) lack of consumer desire for in-person interactions and physical home tours; and (iii) deteriorating economic conditions, such as increased unemployment rates, recessionary conditions, lower yields on individuals' investment portfolios, and more stringent mortgage financing conditions. In addition, the company has considered the impacts and uncertainties of COVID-19 in its use of estimates in preparation of its consolidated financial statements. These estimates include, but are not limited to, likelihood of achieving performance conditions under performance-based equity awards, net realizable value of inventory, and the fair value of reporting units and goodwill for impairment.
In April 2020, following the government lockdown order, the company asked all employees to begin to work from their homes and the company also reduced the number of hours available to each of its employees by approximately by approximately 75%. These actions taken in response to the economic impact of COVID-19 on its business resulted in a reduction of productivity for the three and six months ended September 30, 2020. All cost related to these actions are included in general and administrative expenses, as these costs were determined to be direct and incremental.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Advertising and Marketing Costs
Advertising and marketing costs are recorded as general and administrative expenses when they are incurred. The Company incurred $16,325 in advertising and marketing expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company’s net revenue primarily consists of revenues from: (1) sales of investment properties, and (2) sales of trading securities using its broker firm, TD Ameritrade less original purchase cost. Net trading revenues primarily consist of revenues from trading securities earned upon completion of trade, net of any trading fees. A trading is completed when earned and recognized at a point in time, on a trade-date basis, as the Company executes trades. The Company records trading revenue on a net basis, trading sales less original purchase cost. Net realized gains and losses from securities transactions are determined for federal income tax and financial reporting purposes on the first-in, first-out method and represent proceeds on disposition of investments less the cost basis of investments. Net investment properties primarily consist of revenues from purchasing properties from auctions and open market and selling after the Company improves the properties. The investment expenses that is deducted from sales consist of closing costs, commissions, developer's fees, escrow & title fee, property taxes, recording charges, and seller credit.
Investment – Trading Securities
All investment securities are classified as trading securities and are carried at fair value in accordance with ASC 320 Investments — Debt and Equity Securities. Investment transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains or losses on sales of investments are based on the first-in, first-out or the specific identification method. Realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments are recorded in the statements of operations as realized and unrealized gains or losses as net revenue. All investment securities are held and transacted by the Company’s broker firm, TD Ameritrade. The Company did not hold more than 3% of equity of the shares of any public companies as investments as of September 30, 2020.
All investments that are listed on a securities exchange are valued at their last sales price on the primary securities exchange on which such securities are traded on such date. Securities that are not listed on any exchange but are traded over-the-counter are valued at the mean between the last “bid” and “ask” price for such security on such date. The Company does not have any investment securities for which market quotes are not readily available.
The Company’s trading securities are held by a third-party brokerage firm, TD Ameritrade, and composed of publicly traded companies with readily available fair value which are quoted prices in active markets.
Income Taxes
Under the asset and liability method prescribed within ASC 740, Income Taxes, the Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be realized or settled. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The realizability of deferred tax assets is assessed throughout the year and a valuation allowance is recorded if necessary, to reduce net deferred tax assets to the amount more likely than not to be realized. Certain prior period deferred tax disclosures were reclassified to conform with current period presentation.
ASC 740 provides that a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. ASC 740 also provides guidance on measurement, derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition.
The Company’s practice is to recognize interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in selling and administrative expense. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had no accrued interest or penalties.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Company's financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk primarily consist of its cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions of high credit worthiness. The Company maintains cash balances at financial institutions within the United States which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to limits of approximately $250,000. The Company has not experienced any losses with regard to its bank accounts and believes it is not exposed to any risk of loss on its cash bank accounts. It is possible that at times, the company’s cash and cash equivalents with a particular financial institution may exceed any applicable government insurance limits. In such situation, the Company's management would assess the financial strength and credit worthiness of any parties to which it extends funds, and as such, it believes that any associated credit risk exposures would be addressed and mitigated.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company utilizes ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure, for valuing financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis. Fair value is defined as the exit price, or the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. The guidance also establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the Company’s assumptions about the factors market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability. The guidance establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.
The Company’s financial instruments consisted of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and line of credit. The estimated fair value of cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, due to or from affiliated companies, and notes payable approximates its carrying amount due to the short maturity of these instruments.
The table below describes the Company’s valuation of financial instruments using guidance from ASC 820-10:

Leases
Prior to January 1, 2019, the Company accounted for leases under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 840, Accounting for Leases. Effective from January 1, 2019, the Company adopted the guidance of ASC 842, Leases, which requires an entity to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for virtually all leases. On February 25, 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing transactions. ASC 842 requires that lessees recognize right of use assets and lease liabilities calculated based on the present value of lease payments for all lease agreements with terms that are greater than twelve months.
ASC 842 distinguishes leases as either a finance lease or an operating lease that affects how the leases are measured and presented in the statement of operations and statement of cash flows. ASC 842 supersedes nearly all existing lease accounting guidance under GAAP issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) including ASC Topic 840, Leases.
The Company does not have operating and financing leases as of September 30, 2020. The adoption of ASC 842 did not materially impact its results of operations, cash flows, or presentation thereof.
Recent Accounting Standards Updates
In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which supersedes FASB ASC Topic 840, Leases. This ASU requires the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous guidance. In addition, among other changes to the accounting for leases, this ASU retains the distinction between finance leases and operating leases. The classification criteria for distinguishing between financing leases and operating leases are substantially like the classification criteria for distinguishing between capital leases and operating leases under previous guidance.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
ASU 2016-02 — On October 1, 2019, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2016- 02, Leases, by applying the standard at the adoption date, recognizing a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. As a result, restated financial information and the additional disclosures required under the new standard will not be provided for the comparative periods presented. The new guidance requires quantitative and qualitative disclosures that provide information about the amounts related to leasing arrangements recorded in the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company elected a package of practical expedients available under the new guidance, which allows an entity to not reassess prior conclusions related to existing contracts containing leases, lease classification and initial direct costs. In addition, the Company has elected to apply the short-term lease exception for lease arrangements with a maximum term of 12 months or less. Upon the adoption of the lease standard, the Company recognized a right-of-use ("ROU") asset and a lease liability on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet related to non-cancelable operating leases.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
ASU 2019-12 — In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2019- 12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The amendments in ASU 2019-12 simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 740, Income Taxes. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. ASU 2019-12 will be effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning October 1, 2021, with early adoption permitted. The transition requirements are dependent upon each amendment within this update and will be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company does not expect this ASU to have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2016-13 — In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The main objective of ASU 2016-13 is to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about an entity's expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit at each reporting date. To achieve this objective, the amendments in this update replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to develop credit loss estimates. Subsequent to issuing ASU 2016-13, the FASB has issued additional standards for the purpose of clarifying certain aspects of ASU 2016- 13, as well as providing codification improvements and targeted transition relief under the standard. The subsequently issued ASUs have the same effective date and transition requirements as ASU 2016-13. ASU 2016-13 will be effective for the Company's fiscal year beginning October 1, 2020, using a modified retrospective approach. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact this ASU will have on its condensed consolidated financial statements.
3. INVESTMENT SECURITIES (TRADING)
The Company applied the fair value accounting treatment for trading securities per ASC 320, with unrealized gains and losses recorded in net income each period. Debt securities classified as trading should be measured at fair value in the currency in which the debt securities are denominated and remeasured into the investor’s functional currency using the spot exchange rate at the balance sheet date.
Investments in equity securities as of September 30, 2020 are summarized based on the following:

Trading securities are treated using the fair value method, whereby the value of the securities on the company’s balance sheet is equivalent to their current market value. These securities will be recorded in the current assets section under the Investment Securities account and will be offset in the shareholder’s equity section under the unrealized proceeds from sale of short-term investments” account. The Short Term Investments account amount represents the current market value of the securities, and the “Unrealized Proceeds From Sale of Short Term Investments” account represents the cash proceeds that the company would receive if it were to sell the investments at the end of the specified accounting period.

10. EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
A basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the year. Dilutive earnings per share include the effect of any potentially dilutive debt or equity under the treasury stock method, if including such instruments is dilutive. The Company’s diluted earnings (loss) per share is the same as the basic earnings/loss per share for the period nine months ended September 30, 2020, as there are no potential shares outstanding that would have a dilutive effect.

11. INCOME TAXES
As of September 30, 2020, the Company had a net operating loss carry forward of $132,493, which may be available to reduce future years’ taxable income through 2040. The company uses the tax rate of 40% for its tax-assets estimates.
The provision for income taxes differs from the amount computed by applying the statutory federal income tax rate to income before provision for income taxes. The sources and tax effects of the differences for the periods presented are as follows:
Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon sufficient future taxable income during the period that deductible temporary differences and carry-forwards are expected to be available to reduce taxable income. Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Income Tax laws of the United States, 2020 net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $0 for federal income tax reporting purposes may be subject to annual limitations. Should a change in ownership occur net operating income carry forwards may be limited as to use in future years. As the realization of required future taxable income is uncertain, the Company recorded a valuation allowance.

The Company did not have material income tax provision (benefit) because of net loss and valuation allowances against deferred income tax provision for the period nine months ended September 30, 2020.
A reconciliation of the Company’s effective tax rate to the statutory federal rate is as follows:

The income tax benefit differs from the amount computed by applying the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21%, primarily due to the change in the valuation allowance and state income tax benefit, offset by nondeductible expenses. Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes.
12. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

General
Business Overview
GiveMePower Corporation is one of the few black-controlled public companies in America. The Company operates and manages a portfolio of financial services assets and operations to empower black persons in the United States through financial tools and resources.
Givemepower is primarily focused on: (1) creating and empowering black entrepreneurs and businesses in urban America; and (2) creating real estate properties and businesses in opportunity zones and other distressed neighborhood across America. Our financial services division has not started operations, but intends to conduct operations in the areas of private equity and business lending, investing in young black entrepreneurs and seeding their viable business plans and ideas. Our real estate division invests in Opportunity Zones, Affordable Housing, and specialized real estate properties.
Business History
GiveMePower Corporation (the “PubCo” or “Company”), a Nevada corporation, was incorporated on September 7, 2001 to sell software geared to end users and developers involved in the design, manufacture, and construction of engineered products located in Canada and the United States. The PubCo has been dormant and non-operating since year 2009. PubCo is a public reporting company registered with the Securities Exchange Commissioner (“SEC”). In November 2009, the Company filed Form 15D, Suspension of Duty to Report, and as a result, the Company was not required to file any SEC forms since November 2009.
On December 31, 2019, PubCo sold one Special 2019 series A preferred share (“Series A Share”) for $38,000 to Goldstein Franklin, Inc. (“Goldstein”), a California corporation. One Series A Share is convertible to 100,000,000 shares of common stocks at any time. The Series A Share also provided with 60% voting rights of the PubCo. On the same day, Goldstein sold one-member unit of Alpharidge Capital, LLC (“Alpharidge”), a California limited liability corporation, representing 100% member owner of Alpharidge. As a result, Alpharidge become a wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo as of December 31, 2019.
The transaction above was accounted for as a “reverse merger” and recapitalization amongst PubCo, Goldstein, and Alpharidge since the stockholders of Alpharidge will have the significant influence and the ability to elect or appoint or to remove a majority of the members of the governing body of the combined entity immediately following the completion of the transaction, the stockholders of PubCo will have the significant influence and the ability to elect or appoint or to remove a majority of the members of the governing body of the combined entity, and PubCo’s senior management will dominate the management of the combined entity immediately following the completion of the transaction. Accordingly, Alpharidge will be deemed to be the accounting acquirer in the transaction and, consequently, the transaction is treated as a recapitalization of the PubCo. Accordingly, the assets and liabilities and the historical operations that are reflected in the financial statements are those of Alpharidge and are recorded at the historical cost basis of Alpharidge. As a result, Alpharidge is the surviving company and the financial statements presented are historical financial accounts of Alpharidge.
On September 16, 2020, as part of its sales of unregistered securities to certain corporation related to our President and CEO, the Company, for $3 in cash and 1,000,000 shares of its preferred stock, acquired 100% interest in, and control of Community Economic Development Capital, LLC (“CED Capital”), a California Limited Liability Company, and 97% of the issued and outstanding shares of Cannabinoid Biosciences, Inc. (“CBDX”), a California corporation. This transaction was accounted for under the Consolidation Method using the variable interest entity (VIE) model wherein we consolidate all investees operating results if we expect to assume more than 50% of another entity’s expected losses or gains.
The consolidated financial statements of the Company therefore include its wholly owned subsidiaries of Alpharidge Capital LLC. (“Alpharidge”), Community Economic Development Capital, LLC. (“CED Capital”), and Cannabinoid Biosciences, Inc. (“CBDX”), and subsidiaries, in which GiveMePower has a controlling voting interest and entities consolidated under the variable interest entities (“VIE”) provisions of ASC 810, “Consolidation” (“ASC 810”).

Black-Wealth-Gateway owns directly or indirectly, shares of common stock of several active banking and financial services subsidiaries in which Black-Wealth-Gateway exercises control.
Black-Wealth-Gateway Mission
The Black-Wealth-Gateway is a financial institution that creates, aggregates, facilitates, builds, grows, promotes, preserves and redistributes wealth to black persons. The Black-Wealth-Gateway was founded on 13th day of September, 2014, when certain of the descendants of Cush, the eldest son of Ham, a son of Noah, resolved to establish a bank, a financial services company to: (1) cater to black persons banking needs, (2) finance projects that primarily benefit black persons, (3) capitalize viable ideas by black persons, (4) fund wealth creation and community economic development visions of black persons, (5) invest in black entrepreneurs, and (6) empower black men and women across the earth to pursue worthy dreams and build great communities and cities like Nimrod (Genesis 10:8-12). The premier Black-Wealth-Gateway shall be headquartered in the United States of America, the land of the free and home to the brave; a land where providence had strategically place many of the best of the descendants of Cush. The bank will transact and promote activities across the earth to-and-fro beyond the rivers of Cush (Zephaniah. 3:10 (NIV)). The purpose of the establishment of this entity is to promote and carter to the financial and economic interest of black people, therefore, it shall be called or referred to as the Black Bank (Jeremiah 13:23). The Black Bank will harvest and finance the implementation of the bests of the ideas and visions of our forebears from Cush to Nimrod, Marcus Garvey, Booker T. Washington, W.E.B Dubois, Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., Patrice Lumumba, Thomas Sankara, Toussaint Louverture and Steve Biko for the prosperity and wellbeing of black people across the face of the earth.
Rollups Mergers and Acquisitions
In general, GiveMePower Corporation focuses on the acquisition of undervalued biotechnology companies especially those that failed 2nd and 3rd phase of clinical trials, where time, capital and sound strategy can rescue a business and restore value, preserving jobs in America and around the world while simultaneously providing demonstrated returns to investors. GiveMePower Corporation believes that making money and making the world a better place are not mutually exclusive concepts. The firm offers a unique approach that combines innovative financial models, restructuring techniques and the operational expertise necessary to rebuild businesses facing complex problematic circumstances.
Challenging conditions often mean the need to improve operations from the ground up; the situations require equal concentration and adeptness between financial engineering and operational execution. GiveMePower Corporation is focused on running businesses more efficiently, giving employees conducive and friendly workplace and adding value to shareholders by reducing operational excesses by eliminating inefficient use of resource; and identifying and executing growth strategies in companies it controls. Thus, the company rescues, restructures and breathes new life into biotechnology companies left for dead. The company buys entire or controlling stake in companies with undervalued businesses/assets, transform the businesses and sell the same for profit or hold it for long term.
Our plan for operation is to reach the point where we are generating sufficient revenue from our acquired businesses to meet our obligations on a timely basis. In the early stages of our operations, we will keep costs to a minimum, and we intend to continue our proprietary trading.
While we are waiting to raise adequate capital to finance our business plan, we intend to continue operating a consulting and advisory services business with plans to acquire small to medium size businesses in a variety of industries. Through our structure, we plan to offer investors an opportunity to participate in the ownership and growth of a portfolio of businesses that traditionally have been owned and managed by private equity firms, private individuals or families, financial institutions or large conglomerates. We believe that our management and acquisition strategies will allow us to achieve our goals of creating sustainable earnings growth for our shareholders and increasing shareholder value over time through investments in assets, projects and businesses build healthy communities where every-day Americans live and work.
We are a small company with limited resources, capital base, and insignificant revenue from operations, minimal assets to generate future revenue. There is no guarantee that we could raise sufficient capital to implement our business plan and achieve profitability.
Size of Our Market Opportunity
Biopharmaceuticals are substances that are produced using living organisms, such as microorganisms and animal cells, and have a high-therapeutic value. These large and complex molecular drugs are also known as biologics and biotech drugs. The global biopharmaceuticals market accounted for $186 billion in 2017, and is projected to reach $526 billion by 2025, registering a CAGR of 13.8% from 2018 to 2025.
The global biopharmaceuticals market is driven by various factors, such as increase in elderly population, surge in prevalence of chronic diseases such as cancer and diabetes, and increase in adoption of biopharmaceuticals globally. Furthermore, rise in strategic collaborations among biopharmaceuticals companies is also anticipated to supplement the growth of the biopharmaceuticals industry.
High costs associated with drug development and their threat of failure are factors anticipated to restrain the growth of the global biopharmaceuticals market. Conversely, emerging economies, such as India and China, are anticipated to provide lucrative growth opportunities to the key players involved for business expansion in the global biopharmaceuticals market during the forecast period.
The global biopharmaceuticals market is segmented based on type, application, and region. On the basis of type, the market is divided into monoclonal antibody, interferon, insulin, growth and coagulation factor, erythropoietin, vaccine, hormone, and others. By application, it is categorized into oncology, blood disorder, metabolic disease, infectious disease, cardiovascular disease, neurological disease, immunology, and others. Region-wise, it is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Latin America Middle East and Africa (LAMEA).
We believe that the financial engineering functionalities and operational management capabilities offered by our management team position us to benefit from this growing market. Further, as we plan to grow our team, we believe that we may have opportunities to capitalize on the short-term failures of several biopharmaceutical businesses to acquire valuable assets on the cheap and then derive value by applying our proprietary financial and operational model.

Our Growth Strategy
Strategy
Strategically, the company intends to be a pragmatic acquirer/investor that acquires companies with high growth/significant profitability prospects and strong cash flow characteristics but lacked the necessary expertise and skill-sets to position the company for growth and significant profitability. GiveMePower Corporation focuses on sectors and businesses in which it can implement changes and execute agendas effectively within a given time period. Major targets include Wholesale, distribution, retail, medical, automotive, energy, power, healthcare, industrial, infrastructure, real estate, telecommunications, emerging technology, and media businesses.
Our process involves the identification, performance of due diligence, negotiation and consummation of acquisitions. After acquiring a company we will attempt to grow the company both organically and through add-on or bolt-on acquisitions. Add-on or bolt-on acquisitions are acquisitions by a company of other companies in the same industry. Following the acquisition of companies, we will seek to grow the earnings and cash flow of acquired companies and, in turn, grow distributions to our shareholders and to increase shareholder value. We believe we can increase the cash flows of our businesses by applying our intellectual capital to continually improve and grow our future businesses.
We will seek to acquire and manage small to middle market businesses, which we generally characterize as those that generate annual cash flow of up to $10 million. We believe that the merger and acquisition market for small to middle market businesses is highly fragmented and provides opportunities to purchase businesses at attractive prices. We also believe that significant opportunities exist to improve the performance and augment the management teams of these businesses upon their acquisition. We will rely on the expertise of our management team to identify opportunities and acquire entire or controlling interest in companies with high growth/significant profitability prospects and strong cash flow characteristics but lacked the necessary financial and operational expertise and skill-sets to realize their full potentials. The targets will be dynamic businesses in their respective industries with very good EBDITA and strong operation, but just needed the right financial tune-up and composite restructuring to run better operatively and at optimal significant profitability. The company intends to apply its optimized cost management/control program to acquired/controlled companies, to realize leaner and more efficient operation and better significant profitability.
Our Management Strategy
Our edge is the ability to leverage the expertise of our key managers in cost control, process improvement, and synergetic collaboration across businesses and industries to create value, improve margins, and optimize overall performance of acquired companies. GiveMePower Corporation adopts a conservative approach to acquisitions and investment; it normally considers companies that sell close to or below their industry average multiples for investment or acquisition. GiveMePower Corporation also seeks and acquires assets and businesses that help it achieve vertical integration in its industry.
We will build a team talented in synchronizing optimized business processes across industries and disciplines from target identification, due diligence, through portfolio company restructuring, resulting in better resources allocation and cash-flow, higher significant profitability, and superior returns to shareholders and investors. In general, our officers will oversee and support the management team of our acquired businesses by, among other things:
- recruiting and retaining talented managers to operate our future businesses by using structured incentive compensation programs, including minority equity ownership, tailored to each business;
- regularly monitoring financial and operational performance, instilling consistent financial discipline, and supporting management in the development and implementation of information systems to effectively achieve these goals;
- assisting management of our businesses in their analysis and pursuit of prudent organic growth strategies;
- identifying and working with management to execute on attractive external growth and acquisition opportunities;
- identifying and executing operational improvements and integration opportunities that will lead to lower operating costs and operational optimization;
- providing the management teams of our future businesses the opportunity to leverage our experience and expertise to develop and implement business and operational strategies; and
- forming strong subsidiary level boards of directors to supplement management in their development and implementation of strategic goals and objectives.
We believe that our long-term perspective provides us with certain additional advantages, including the ability to:
- recruit and develop talented management teams for our future businesses that are familiar with the industries in which our future businesses operate and will generally seek to manage and operate our future businesses with a long-term focus, rather than a short-term investment objective;
- focus on developing and implementing business and operational strategies to build and sustain shareholder value over the long term;
- create sector-specific businesses enabling us to take advantage of vertical and horizontal acquisition opportunities within a given sector;
- achieve exposure in certain industries in order to create opportunities for future acquisitions; and
- develop and maintain long-term collaborative relationships with customers and suppliers.
We intend to continually increase our intellectual capital as we operate our businesses and acquire new businesses and as our management team identify and recruit qualified employees for our businesses.
Acquisition Strategy
In general, GiveMePower Corporation will focuses on the acquisition of undervalued companies where time, capital and sound strategy can rescue a business and restore value, preserving jobs in America and around the world while simultaneously providing demonstrated returns to investors. GiveMePower Corporation believes that making money and making the world a better place are not mutually exclusive concepts. The firm offers a unique approach that combines innovative financial models, restructuring techniques and the operational expertise necessary to rebuild businesses facing complex problematic circumstances.
We use conservative approach to acquisitions and investment. We consider companies that sell at close or below their book values. Our acquisition strategies involve the acquisition of businesses in various industries that we expect will produce positive and stable earnings and cash flow, as well as achieve attractive returns on our investment. In so doing, we expect to benefit from our management team’s ability to identify diverse acquisition opportunities in a variety of industries, perform diligence on and value such target businesses, and negotiate the ultimate acquisition of those businesses. We believe our Chief Executive Officer has relevant experience in managing small to middle market businesses. We also believe that based on his experience and qualifications, our Chief Executive Officer will be able both to access a wide network of sources of potential acquisition opportunities and to successfully navigate a variety of complex situations surrounding acquisitions, including corporate spin-offs, transitions of family-owned businesses, management buy-outs and reorganizations. In addition, we intend to pursue acquisitions of under-managed or under-performing businesses that, we believe, can be improved pursuant to our management strategy.
We believe that the merger and acquisition market for small to middle market businesses is highly fragmented and provides opportunities to purchase businesses at attractive prices relative to larger market transactions. We intend to generate sustainable returns to our investors on investments while at the same time helping to rebuild communities across the United States. To achieve this goal we intend to implement a platform similar to a vertically integrated distressed private equity company with in-house operational turnaround expertise capable of managing and transforming the fortunes of distressed companies we intend to acquire.
In addition to acquiring businesses, we expect to also sell businesses that we own from time to time when attractive opportunities arise. Our decision to sell a business will be based on our belief that the return on the investment to our shareholders that would be realized by means of such a sale is more favorable than the returns that may be realized through continued ownership. Our acquisition and disposition of businesses will be consistent with the guidelines to be established by our company’s board of directors from time to time.
Provided we can raise additional funds, in the future, we intend to expand the geographic footprint of our business to include states outside California.
Competition
Our business is highly competitive. We are in direct competition with more established private equity firms, private investors and management companies. Many management companies offer similar products and services for business rollups and consolidations. We may be at a substantial disadvantage to our competitors who have more capital than we do to carry out acquisition, operations and restructuring efforts. These competitors may have competitive advantages, such as greater name recognition, larger capital-base, marketing, research and acquisition resources, access to larger customer bases and channel partners, a longer operating history and lower labor and development costs, which may enable them to respond more quickly to new or emerging opportunities and changes in customer requirements or devote greater resources to the development, acquisition and promotion.
Increased competition could result in us failing to attract significant capital or maintaining them. If we are unable to compete successfully against current and future competitors, our business and financial condition may be harmed.
We hope to maintain our competitive advantage by keeping abreast of market dynamism that is face by our industry, and by utilizing the experience, knowledge, and expertise of our management team. Moreover, we believe that we distinguish ourselves in the ways our model envisaged transformation of businesses.
Government Regulation
Our activities currently are subject to no particular regulation by governmental agencies other than that routinely imposed on corporate businesses. However, we may be subject to the rules governing acquisition and disposition of businesses, real estates and personal properties in each of the state where we have our operations. We may also be subject to various state laws designed to protect buyers and sellers of businesses. We cannot predict the impact of future regulations on either us or our business model.
Intellectual Property
We currently have no patents, trademarks or other registered intellectual property. We do not consider the grant of patents, trademarks or other registered intellectual property essential to the success of our business.
Employees
We do not have a W-2 employee at the present. Frank Ikechukwu Igwealor, our President, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, is our only full-time staff as of September 30, 2020, pending when we could formalize an employment contract for him. In addition to Mr. Igwealor, we have three part-time unpaid staff who helps with bookkeeping and administrative chores. Most of our part-time staff, officers, and directors will devote their time as needed to our business and are expect to devote at least 15 hours per week to our business operations. We plan on formalizing employment contract for those staff currently helping us without pay. Furthermore, in the immediate future, we intend to use independent contractors and consultants to assist in many aspects of our business on an as needed basis pending financial resources being available. We may use independent contractors and consultants once we receive sufficient funding to hire additional employees. Even then, we will principally rely on independent contractors for substantially all of our technical and marketing needs.
The Company has no written employment contract or agreement with any person. Currently, we are not actively seeking additional employees or engaging any consultants through a formal written agreement or contract. Services are provided on an as-needed basis to date. This may change in the event that we are able to secure financing through equity or loans to the Company. As our company grows, we expect to hire more full-time employees.
Plan of Operation for the Next Twelve (12) Months
As GMPW moves ahead to implement its business plan, the Company begins to identify, acquire and complimentary businesses and internally-manage real estate holdings focused on affordable housing, Opportunity Zone and urban revitalization across the United States. We plan to acquire both single family residence (SFR) and multi-family and commercial properties including sale-leaseback transactions and third-party purchases. On our commercial properties (opportunity zone) we expect to lease our properties on a triple-net lease basis, where the tenant is responsible for all aspects of and costs related to the property and its operation during the lease term, including structural repairs, maintenance, taxes and insurance.
We plan to conduct our affordable housing business through a traditional umbrella partnership real estate holding company, in which our properties are owned by our Operating Partnership, directly or through subsidiaries. We shall be the sole general partner of our Operating Partnership and own, directly or through a subsidiary, 100% of the limited partnership interests in our Operating Partnership.
GMPW through Alpharidge Capital and CED Capital currently own two real properties located in Los Angeles County. The total cost of the property as of September 30, 2020 is $970,148. It is expected that the eventual cost would of the properties would increase far above $970,148 before the company could put the properties to productive use. Using the real properties as collateral, we believe that we could always obtain the capital needed to acquire and rehabilitate properties.
There is no assurance that we would be able to put the property to good use such as renting it to eligible low-income family / tenant. If we are unable to put them to productive use, we would be forced to sell them and use the money generated from the sales to pay off the loans used to acquire them.
To effectively fund our business plan, we must raise additional capital. But there can be no assurance that we will be able to raise the capital necessary to acquire, own or hold profitable businesses and real properties. Moreover, there can be no assurance that we will be able to raise the capital necessary to execute our business plan and also to acquire, own or hold complimentary businesses and real properties.
Within the next twelve months, we intend to use income generated from our operations to hire employees that would help us to raise capital to build our company. There is no assurance that we would be able to generate income from our operations in the near future.
We intend to implement the following tasks within the next twelve months:
- Month 1-3: Phase 1 (1-3 months in duration; complete rehabilitation of the opportunity zone located property and put it to good use)
- Identify 4 other properties to acquire
- Identify 2 profitable businesses to acquire
- Sign purchase agreement with the sellers of the 2 profitable businesses and 4 properties identified above;
- Acquire and consolidate the revenue from those six acquisitions.
- Month 3-6 Phase 2 (1-3 months in duration; cost control, process improvements, admin & mngt.).
- Integrate acquisitions into GMPW’s model – consolidate the management of the acquired businesses and properties including integration of their accounting and finance systems, synchronization of their operating systems, and harmonization of their human resources functions.
- Start Crowdfund Raise of $50 million for Opportunity Zone acquisitions and use the proceeds to effectuate our business plan.
- Complete and file quarterly reports and other required filings for the quarter
- Month 6-9: Phase 3 (1-3 months in duration; $5 million in estimated fund receipt)
- Identify and acquire 2 profitable businesses and 4 properties that are complementary/similar properties or assets in the target market
- Month 9-12: Phase 4 (1-3 months duration; use acquired businesses’ free cash flow for more acquisitions)
- Run the businesses efficiently, giving employees a conducive and friendly workplace and add value to investors and shareholders by identifying and reducing excesses and also identifying and executing growth strategies
- Acquire 2 profitable businesses and 4 more properties especially in regions where RE is at or below their book-value.
- Operating expenses during the twelve months would be as follows:
- For the nine months through April 30, we anticipate to incur general and other operating expenses of $338,000.
- For the nine months through October 31, 2021 we anticipate to incur additional general and other operating expenses of $382,000.
As noted above, the execution of our current plan of operations requires us to raise significant additional capital immediately. If we are successful in raising at least $620,000 in capital, we hope that the Company will have sufficient cash resources to fund its plan of operations for the next twelve months. If we are unable to do so, our ability to continue as a going concern will be in jeopardy, likely causing us to curtail and possibly cease operations.
We continually evaluate our plan of operations discussed above to determine the manner in which we can most effectively utilize our limited cash resources. The timing of completion of any aspect of our plan of operations is highly dependent upon the availability of cash to implement that aspect of the plan and other factors beyond our control. There is no assurance that we will successfully obtain the required capital or revenues, or, if obtained, that the amounts will be sufficient to fund our ongoing operations. The inability to secure additional capital would have a material adverse effect on us, including the possibility that we would have to sell or forego a portion or all of our assets or cease operations. If we discontinue our operations, we will not have sufficient funds to pay any amounts to our stockholders.
Because our working capital requirements depend upon numerous factors there can be no assurance that our current cash resources will be sufficient to fund our operations. At present, we have no committed external sources of capital, and do not expect any significant product revenues for the foreseeable future. Thus, we will require immediate additional financing to fund future operations. There can be no assurance, however, that we will be able to obtain funds on acceptable terms, if at all.
Components of Our Results of Operations
Revenue—We generate revenue primarily from net revenue from trading,
commissions and fees charged on each real estate services transaction closed by
our lead agents or partner agents, and from the sale of homes.
Properties Revenue—Properties revenue consists of revenue earned when we sell homes that we previously bought directly from homeowners. Properties revenue is recorded at closing on a gross basis, representing the sales price of the home.
Intercompany Eliminations—Revenue earned from transactions between operating segments are
eliminated in consolidating our financial statements. Intercompany transactions
primarily consist of services performed from our real estate services segment
for our properties segment.
Cost of Revenue and Gross Margin
Cost of revenue
consists primarily of home-touring and field expenses, listing expenses, home
costs related to our properties segment, office and occupancy expenses, and
depreciation and amortization related to fixed assets and acquired intangible
assets. Home costs related to our properties segment include home purchase
costs, capitalized improvements, selling expenses directly attributable to the
transaction, and home maintenance expenses.
Gross profit is revenue less cost of revenue. Gross margin is gross profit expressed as a percentage of revenue. Our gross margin has and will continue to be affected by a number of factors, but the most important are the mix of revenue from our relatively higher-gross-margin real estate services segment and our relatively lower-gross-margin properties segment, real estate services revenue per transaction, agent and support-staff productivity, personnel costs and transaction bonuses, and, for properties, the home purchase costs.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2020, the Company had a working deficit of $143,052, consisting of $5,340 in cash, $22,961 in Trading Securities, $152 in accounts receivable, minus $943 of accrued expense, $1,406 in accrued interest, $5,542 in marginal loan payable, and $163,632 of line credit.
The Company had $22,961 inventory of Trading Securities as of September 30, 2020 as compared to $0 for the period ending December 31, 2019.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company used $21,401 on operating activities, used $1,014,128 on investing activities and generated $1,040,369 from financing activities, resulting in an increase in total cash of $4,840 and a cash balance of $5,340 for the period. For the nine months period ended September 30, 2019, the Company used cash of $0 in operating activities, used cash of $0 for investing activities and obtained cash of $0 from financing activities, resulting in an increase in cash of $0 and a cash balance of $0 at the end of such period.
Total notes payable for related and unrelated parties increased by $1,040,357 for the period ended September 30, 2020, compared to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 of $45,517.
As of September 30, 2020, total stockholders’ deficit increased to $76,373 compared to total stockholders’ equity of $379 as of December 31, 2019.
As of September 30, 2020, the Company had a cash balance of $5,340 (i.e. cash is used to fund operations). The Company does not believe our current cash balances will be sufficient to allow us to fund our operating plan for the next twelve months. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on us obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until we become profitable. If we are unable to obtain adequate capital, we could be forced to cease operations or substantially curtail its drug development activities. These conditions raise substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
Our principal sources of liquidity in the past has been cash generated from loans to us by our major shareholder. In order to be able to achieve our strategic goals, we need to further expand our business and implement our business plan. To continue to develop our business plan and generate sales, significant capital has been and will continue to be required. Management intends to fund future operations through private or public equity and/or debt offerings. We continue to engage in preliminary discussions with potential investors and broker-dealers, but no terms have been agreed upon. There can be no assurances, however, that additional funding will be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all. Any equity financing may be dilutive to existing shareholders. We do not currently have any contractual restrictions on our ability to incur debt and, accordingly we could incur significant amounts of indebtedness to finance operations. Any such indebtedness could contain covenants which would restrict our operations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
There are no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) requires estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The SEC has defined a company’s critical accounting policies as the ones that are most important to the portrayal of the company’s financial condition and results of operations, and which require the company to make its most difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain.
Based on this definition, we have identified the critical accounting policies and judgments addressed which are described in Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. Although we believe that our estimates, assumptions and judgments are reasonable, they are based upon information presently available. Actual results may differ significantly from these estimates under different assumptions, judgments or conditions.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Not required for smaller reporting companies.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), Rule 13a-15(b), we have carried out an evaluation (the “Evaluation”), under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our management, and the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2020. Based upon an evaluation of the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures, our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer has concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were not effective because of the material weaknesses described below, in order to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the rules and forms of the SEC and is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure (see below for further discussion).We had neither the resources, nor the personnel, to provide an adequate control environment.
Due to our limited resources, the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting continued to exist at September 30, 2020:
|
● |
we do not have written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures. Written documentation of key internal controls over financial reporting is a requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”); |
|
|
|
|
● |
we do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control. Due to our limited size and early stage nature of operations, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible; however, to the extent possible, the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate individuals;
|
|
● |
although we have recently established an independent audit committee of our Board of Directors, the establishment is very young and may not have made significant difference; |
|
|
|
|
● |
insufficient monitoring and review controls over the financial reporting closing process, including the lack of individuals with current knowledge of GAAP that led to the restatement of our previously issued financial statements; and |
|
|
|
|
● |
we continue to outsource the functions of controller on an interim basis to assist us in implementing the necessary financial controls over the financial reporting and the utilization of internal management and staff to effectuate these controls. |
We believe that these material weaknesses primarily related, in part, to our lack of sufficient staff with appropriate training in GAAP and SEC rules and regulations with respect to financial reporting functions, and the lack of robust accounting systems, as well as the lack of sufficient resources to hire such staff and implement these accounting systems.
While we have established an audit committee of our Board of Directors comprised of two independent directors, if and when our financial resources allow, we plan to take a number of additional actions to correct these material weaknesses including, but not limited to, hiring a full-time Chief Financial Officer, adding experienced accounting and financial personnel and retaining third-party consultants to review our internal controls and recommend improvements.
It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable and not absolute assurance that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of certain events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no material changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a- 15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred as of September 30, 2020, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
CEO and CFO Certifications
Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2 to this Quarterly Report are the Certifications of the Chief Executive Officer and the Interim Chief Financial Officer, respectively. These Certifications are required in accordance with Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (the “Section 302 Certifications”). This Item 4 of this Quarterly Report, which you are currently reading, is the information concerning the Evaluation referred to above and in the Section 302 Certifications and this information should be read in conjunction with the Section 302 Certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings
There are no legal proceedings that have occurred within the past ten years concerning our directors or officers which involved a criminal conviction, a criminal proceeding, an administrative or civil proceeding limiting one’s participation in the securities or banking industries, or a finding of securities or commodities law violations.
From time to time we may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of the operation of our business in the normal course of business. Other than as described below, as of the date of this Registration Statement we are not aware of potential dispute or pending litigation and are not currently involved in a litigation proceeding or governmental actions the outcome of which in management’s opinion would be material to our financial condition or results of operations. An adverse result in these or other matters may have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or operating results.
On February 20, 2019, Plaintiff Maria De Lourdes Perez filed a complaint against defendants City of Carson, Goldstein Franklin, Inc., Frank Igwealor, Healthy Foods Markets, LLC, Optimal Foods, LLC, and Blockchain Capital LLC. The complaint alleged statutory liability pursuant to government code section 835, gross negligence, and premises liability for a trip-and-fall that occurred on April 11, 2018 at a property owned and controlled by Healthy Foods Markets, LLC. Defendants Goldstein Franklin, Inc., Frank Igwealor, Optimal Foods, LLC, and Blockchain Capital LLC. had answered the complaint and also requested a demurrer on the grounds that (1) Defendants are not a proper party in interest and there was a misjoinder of defendants. Our attorney has advised that the complaint would not have an adverse impact on Mr. Igwealor or the Company because the scope of liability is restricted to healthy Food Markets, LLC.
As of November 4, 2020, except for the complaint listed above, there was no material proceeding to which any of our directors, officers, affiliates or stockholders is a party adverse to us. During the past ten years, no present director, executive officer or person nominated to become a director or an executive officer of us:
(1) had a petition under the federal bankruptcy laws or any state insolvency law filed by or against, or a receiver, fiscal agent or similar officer appointed by a court for the business or property of such person, or any partnership in which he was a general partner at or within two years before the time of such filing, or any corporation or business association of which he was an executive officer at or within ten years before the time of such filing;
(2) was convicted in a criminal proceeding or subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses);
(3) was subject to any order, judgment or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining him from or otherwise limiting his involvement in any of the following activities:
i. acting as a futures commission merchant, introducing broker, commodity trading advisor commodity pool operator, floor broker, leverage transaction merchant, any other person regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, or an associated person of any of the foregoing, or as an investment adviser, underwriter, broker or dealer in securities, or as an affiliated person, director or employee of any investment company, bank, savings and loan association or insurance company, or engaging in or continuing any conduct or practice in connection with such activity;
ii. engaging in any type of business practice; or
iii. engaging in any activity in connection with the purchase or sale of any security or commodity or in connection with any violation of federal or state securities laws or federal commodities laws; or
(4) was the subject of any order, judgment or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of an federal or state authority barring, suspending or otherwise limiting for more than 60 days the right of such person to engage in any activity described in paragraph (3) (i), above, or to be associated with persons engaged in any such activity; or
(5) was found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the Securities and Exchange Commission or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and for which the judgment has not been reversed, suspended or vacated.
