GZ6G TECHNOLOGIES CORP.
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 and 2021
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1: ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
GZ6G Technologies Corp. (formerly Green Zebra International Corp.) (the “Company” or “GZ6G”) is a complete enterprise smart solutions provider for large venues and cities. Focused on acquiring smart city solutions, developing innovative products, and overseeing smart cities and smart venues, GZ6G also assists in modernizing clients with innovative wireless IoT technology for the emerging 5G and Wi-Fi 6 marketplaces. Target markets include stadiums, airports, universities, and smart city projects. The Company is organized under the laws of the State of Nevada and has offices in California and Nevada.
In November 2018, the Company changed its name from NanoSensors, Inc. to Green Zebra International Corp. following a merger with Green Zebra Media Corp., a Delaware corporation, under common control.
The Board of Directors approved a name change and a reverse stock split of the Company’s issued and outstanding common shares at a ratio of 200 to 1 on December 18, 2019. The accompanying financial statements, and all share and per share information contained herein has been retroactively restated to reflect the reverse stock split. On December 20, 2019, the Company changed its name from Green Zebra International Corp. to GZ6G Technologies Corp.
On August 6, 2021, Mr. William Ray Procanik and Mr. Brian Scott Hale were appointed to the Company’s board of directors and concurrently the Company formed an audit committee, which each of Mr. Hale and Mr. Procanik joined, serving as independent board members. Concurrently the Company completed an application for an uplist to the OTCQB and submitted the required disclosure through OTCMarkets. The Company was approved for trading on the OTCQB Venture Market on October 25, 2021.
Going Concern
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company entered into various loan treaties, convertible notes and other financing arrangements through which we received net cash proceeds of $2,108,000. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, the Company received net cash proceeds of $1,145,900 by way of a series of convertible promissory notes and $310,000 in the form of related party loans. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had a working capital deficit of $8,418,286 with approximately $174,000 of cash on hand and an accumulated deficit of $20,775,794. The Company anticipates a need for a further $5,000,000 in fiscal 2023 to meet its upgraded infrastructure requirements. In addition to the remaining funding which may be provided to the Company under various loan treaty agreements, the Company filed two registration statements on Form S-1 to facilitate this requirement which allow for total funding of up to $15,000,000, both of which have been deemed effective. Up to September 30, 2022 the Company has received funding under these equity lines of $117,216. There is no guarantee the Company will continue to receive financing as required. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the ability to raise additional equity and/or debt financing and the attainment of profitable operations from the Company’s future business. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital as needed, the Company may be required to reduce the scope, delay, or eliminate some or all of its planned operations. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The financial statements reflect all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods shown. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For
the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022, and 2021
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1: ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS (continued)
Covid-19 Pandemic: The COVID-19 pandemic could have a continuing adverse impact on our existing sponsorship and revenue agreements. During 2021 the implementation of services under certain of our installation agreements experienced delays as a result of the pandemic. COVID-19 has caused significant disruptions to the global financial markets, which may also continue to impact our ability to raise additional capital. During March 2020, we gave notice of furlough to our administrative support employees in an effort to conserve resources as we evaluate our business development efforts in the coming months. In April 2020, the Company received a grant of $6,000 and in May 2020 we received a PPP loan and an SBA loan in the approximate cumulative amount of $90,000 for operations. During early 2022 the Company reopened its offices and continued with the hiring of additional staff as well as the upgrading of infrastructure requirements to meet anticipated customer requirements for 2022. While recent progress in the battle against COVID leads us to believe that the worst of the effects of the pandemic are past, we cannot say with certainty that the situation will not change. The full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak continues to evolve as of the date of this report, is highly uncertain and still subject to change. While significant uncertainty remains, despite the fact that the Company has been able to source financing, it remains that the COVID-19 outbreak may have a negative impact on its ability to work through its collaborative development efforts with industry partners, and in acquiring venues due to the continuing impact of COVID 19, in particular as a result of the impact to the global supply chain.
NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the SEC’s rules and regulations. The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

(“GZMC’), as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. All significant intercompany accounting transactions have been eliminated as a result of consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles 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. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to long-lived assets and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For financial accounting purposes, cash and cash equivalents are considered to be all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three (3) months or less at the time of purchase.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash deposits. Accounts at each institution are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000. At September 30, 2022, the Company had $0 in excess of the FDIC insured limit.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation on property and equipment are determined using the straight-line method over the three to five year estimated useful lives of the assets.
Research and Development Costs
We charge research and development costs to operations as incurred in accordance with ASC 730-Research and Development, except in those cases in which such costs are reimbursable under customer funded contracts. These amounts are not reflected in the reported research and development expenses in each of the respective periods but are included in net sales with the related costs included in cost of sales in each of the respective periods.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 606 — Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The core principle of this standard is that a company should record revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Further under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue from licensing agreements and service-based contracts by applying the following steps: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied.
We earn revenue from both digital marketing and the sale of WiFi and communication solutions to customers around the world. Revenue is earned from sales of our WiFi media platform and our WiFi monetization hardware (GZ Media hub) embedded with GZ software to create monetization and communication solutions for our customers. Our sales can consist of any one or a combination of items required by our customer including hardware, technology platforms and related support. We also enter into licensing contracts which provide for revenue based on licensing fees and revenue sharing with our licensees.
As we expand, we expect a large portion of our revenue from our digital communication solutions to be derived from service-based contracts where we expect to recognize a significant portion of our contracts over time, as there is a continuous delivery of services to the customer over the contractual period of performance. These contracts may or may not include fixed payments for services over time and/or commission-based fees.

Revenue Recognition (continued)
Direct costs are expected to include materials, labor and overhead to be charged to work-in-progress (including our contracts-in-progress) inventory or cost of sales. Indirect costs relating to long-term contracts, are expected to include expenses such as general and administrative charges, and other costs will be charged to expense as incurred and will not be included in our work-in-process (including our contracts-in-progress) inventory or cost of sales. Total estimates are expected to be reviewed and revised periodically throughout the lives of the contracts, and adjustments to profits resulting from such revisions are made cumulative to the date of the change. Estimated losses on long-term contracts are recorded in the period in which the losses become evident. If we do not accurately estimate the total sales, related costs and progress towards completion on our long-term contracts, the estimated gross margins may be significantly impacted, or losses may need to be recognized in future periods. Any such resulting changes in margins or contract losses could be material to our results of operations and financial condition.
In addition, certain of our contracts will include termination for convenience or non-performance clauses that provide the customer with the right to terminate the contract. Such terminations could impact the assumptions regarding total contract revenues and expenses utilized in recognizing profit under those contracts where we apply the percentage-of-completion method of accounting. Changes to these assumptions could materially impact our results of operations and financial condition. As we fully implement our business model, our inability to perform on our long-term contracts could materially impact our results of operations and financial condition.
Stock-Based Compensation
We account for stock-based transactions in which the Company receives services from employees, non-employees, directors or others in exchange for equity instruments based on the fair value of the award at the grant date in accordance with ASC 718 – Compensation-Stock Compensation. Stock-based compensation cost for stock options or warrants is estimated at the grant date based on each instrument’s fair value as calculated by the Black-Scholes option pricing model. We recognize stock-based compensation cost as expense ratably on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the award.
Debt Issue Costs
The Company may pay debt issue costs in connection with raising funds through the issuance of debt whether convertible or not or with other consideration. These costs are recorded as debt discounts and are amortized over the life of the debt to the statement of operations as interest expense.
Original Issue Discount
If debt is issued with an original issue discount, the original issue discount is recorded to debt discount, reducing the face amount of the note and is amortized over the life of the debt to the statement of operations as interest expense. If a conversion of the underlying debt occurs, a proportionate share of the unamortized amounts is immediately expensed.
Stock Settled Debt
In certain instances, the Company will issue convertible notes which contain a provision in which the price of the conversion feature is priced at a fixed discount to the trading price of the Company’s common shares as traded in the over-the-counter market. In these instances, the Company records a liability, in addition to the principal amount of the convertible note, as stock-settled debt for the fixed value transferred to the convertible note holder from the fixed discount conversion feature. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had recorded within Convertible Notes, net of discount, the amount of $6,223,130 and $5,075,840 for the value of the stock settled debt with respect to certain convertible notes (see Note 6).

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Leases
In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-02 – Topic 842 Leases. ASU 2016-02 requires that most leases be recognized on the financial statements, specifically the recognition of right-to-use assets and related lease liabilities, and enhanced disclosures about leasing arrangements. The Company elected to apply the short-term scope exception for leases with terms of 12 months or less at the inception of the lease and will continue to recognize rent expense on a straight-line basis.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. FASB ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are financial instruments whose values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation.
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 of input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.
Income Taxes
The Company follows ASC 740 – Income Taxes, which requires the use of the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing 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 recovered or settled.
In accordance with ASC 260 – Earnings Per Share, the basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common stock outstanding. Diluted loss per common share is computed similar to basic loss per common share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if the potential common stock had been issued and if the additional shares of common stock were dilutive. Potential common stock consists of the incremental common stock issuable upon convertible notes, classes of shares with conversion features.

Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share
The computation of basic loss per share for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2021 excludes potentially dilutive securities of underlying share purchase warrants, convertible notes, and preferred shares, because their inclusion would be antidilutive. As a result, the computation of basic income/loss per share includes potentially dilutive securities of underlying share purchase warrants, convertible notes, and preferred shares, for those periods where there has been reported net income. The computations of net income per share for the three months ended September 30, 2022 reflects both basic and diluted income per share, and the computation of net loss per share for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 is the same for both basic and fully diluted.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06 to simplify the current guidance for convertible instruments and the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity. Additionally, the amendments affect the diluted EPS calculation for instruments that may be settled in cash or shares and for convertible instruments. The update also provides for expanded disclosure requirements to increase transparency. For SEC filers, excluding smaller reporting companies, this update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, this Update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods therein. The Company has not yet adopted this ASU and does not expect the adoption of ASU 2020-06 to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements or disclosures.
The Company has reviewed all recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and do not believe the future adoption of any such pronouncements may be expected to cause a material impact on its financial condition or the results of its operations.

NOTE 7: CUSTOMER DEPOSITS, CONTRACT RECEIVABLES AND CONTRACT LIABILITIES
The Company generates revenue from contracts which, among other services, provide wireless and digital promotion rights for certain events including WiFi media network advertising rights, and the development of smart venue wireless networks and software engagement technology products for airports, stadiums, campuses, cities and other venues in the United States and International markets. In general, our contracts require several months of implementation which is charged at a fixed rate, followed by monthly maintenance and management services, ad hoc fixed rate services, and a share in advertising revenue, when applicable. As a result, the Company will accept deposits from customers, which deposits are applied as each stage of our implementation is complete or under the terms of the service contract. Invoices issued to customers for the implementation phase of our contracts are due and payable when issued, however, as the associated scope of services have not yet been concluded, these invoices do not yet meet the revenue recognition criteria required to report these amounts as earned revenue (ref: Note 2 – Revenue Recognition). As a result, deposits when received from customers are included as liabilities on our balance sheets.
The following table provides balances of customer receivables and contract liabilities as of September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021:
September, 2022 | December 31, 2021 | |||||||
Customer receivables (1) | $ | $ | ||||||
Contract liabilities (Customer deposits) (1), (2) (a), (b), (c) | $ | 175,000 | $ | 209,000 |
(1) | The Company has deposits of $175,000 and $209,000, respectively as at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, with respect to certain future services to be provided, which amounts are not yet earned under revenue recognition criteria provided by ASC 606 and therefore, they are not reflected as accounts receivable on the Company’s balance sheets. During the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recorded $3,000 and $9,000, respectively as income relative to the above contracts and returned $25,000 in previously paid deposits to one of its customers. |
(2) | Contract liabilities are consideration we have received from our customers billed in advance of providing goods or services promised in the future or for work in progress. We defer recognizing this consideration as revenue until we have satisfied the related performance obligation to the customer. Contract liabilities include installation and maintenance charges that are deferred and recognized when the installation is complete or with respect to deposits for maintenance, over the actual or expected contract term, which typically ranges from one to five years depending on the service. Contract liabilities may be included as customer deposits or deferred revenue in our consolidated balance sheets, based on the specifics of the contract. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we have recognized $3,000 and $9,000 in revenue from customer deposits on hand (September 2021 - Nil). The Company and certain customers are currently in negotiations to determine the best way to proceed with the delayed implementation of certain prior period contracts for which we have received deposits but have not completed the scope of work. |
Performance Obligations
While we had originally expected to recognize revenue during fiscal 2020 with respect to contracts for which we have received customer deposits, the impact of COVID-19 had a significant impact on implementation. The Company is currently in negotiations to determine the best way to proceed with the delayed implementation of these contracts, or their termination.

(a) We executed a license agreement for the country of Spain in fiscal 2016 and the Company received an initial deposit of $25,000 against the total licensing fee payable. This amount has been recorded on the Company’s balance sheets as deferred income. While the Company and the customer attempted to negotiate an amendment to the terms of the agreement in late fiscal 2019, the onset of COVID-19 resulted in further delays which are ongoing. As a result, the Company is currently in negotiation for a formal termination of the agreement with this customer.
(b) On July 11, 2019, GZMC entered into an Airport WiFi Sponsorship Marketing Agreement with a third party whereunder GZMC will secure long-term, exclusive and non-exclusive smart venues for WiFi marketing, digital marketing and data analytics for various brand sponsors at various airports across the United States. There were several venues anticipated under the terms of the agreement with installations commencing on various schedules. GZMC generated invoices for $100,000 for each of 13 venues, whereby $65,000 per venue is due on receipt of the invoice and the remaining $35,000 is due sixty days thereafter. As at September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company has received partial payments of $130,000 against the initial deposit required, of which a total of $25,000 was returned during the period leaving $105,000 on deposit. Previously the Company expected revenue recognition under these contracts to commence in fiscal 2020, however, as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the project has been delayed indefinitely. Funds originally provided for the implementation of this project are anticipated to be applied as a deposit on a project yet to be identified or otherwise, fully repaid.
(c) On October 6, 2020, the Company received a purchase order in the amount of $132,000 in regard to a Media Agreement described in Note 9(3) below.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As at September 30, 2022, the Company had cash on hand of $174,091 (December 31, 2021- $759,791) and an accumulated deficit of $20,775,794 (December 31, 2021 - $16,092,531).
During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 the Company entered into various loan treaties, convertible notes and other financing arrangements through which we received net cash proceeds of $2,108,000 during fiscal 2021. The Company anticipates a need for a further $5,000,000 in fiscal 2022 to meet its upgraded infrastructure requirements and has filed two registration statements on Form S-1 to facilitate this requirement which allow for total funding of up to $15,000,000, both of which have been deemed effective.

Covid-19 Pandemic
The recent COVID-19 pandemic could have a continuing adverse impact on our existing sponsorship and revenue agreements. To date, the implementation of services under certain of these agreements have experienced delays as a result of the pandemic. COVID-19 has caused significant disruptions to the global financial markets, which may also impact our ability to raise additional capital. During March 2020, we gave notice of furlough to our administrative support employees in an effort to conserve resources as we evaluated our business development efforts during that period. In April 2020, the Company received a grant of $6,000 and in May 2020 we received a PPP loan and an SBA loan in the approximate cumulative amount of $90,000 for operations. With the recently negotiated financing the Company is currently reopening offices and has commenced the hiring of additional staff as well as the upgrading of infrastructure requirements to meet anticipated customer needs. While recent progress in the battle against COVID leads us to believe that the worst of the effects of the pandemic are past, we cannot say with certainty that the situation will not change. The full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak continues to evolve as of the date of this report, is highly uncertain and still subject to change. While significant uncertainty remains, despite the fact that the Company has been able to source financing, it remains that the COVID-19 outbreak may have a negative impact on continuing funding and its ability to work through its collaborative development efforts with industry partners, and in acquiring venues due to the continuing impact of COVID 19. To mitigate impact the Company is currently focusing its efforts on contracts in the wireless and cellular telecommunications segment, as well as the infrastructure components of its existing contracts to allow for continuity and forward momentum.

Going Concern
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had a working capital deficit of $8,418,286 with approximately $174,091 of cash on hand and an accumulated deficit of $20,775,794. During the year ended December 31, 2021 the Company entered into various loan treaties, convertible notes and other financing arrangements through which we received net cash proceeds of $2,108,000. The Company anticipates a need for a further $5,000,000 in fiscal 2023 to meet its upgraded infrastructure requirements and has filed two registration statements on Form S-1 to facilitate this requirement which allow for total funding of up to $15,000,000, both of which have been deemed effective. To date the Company has received funding under these equity lines of $117,516. During the nine months period ended September 30, 2022, the Company raised an additional net $1,199,150 by way of a series of convertible promissory notes totaling $1,149,150 and including $50,000 funded under the loan treaty agreement. There is no guarantee the Company will continue to receive financing as required. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the ability to raise additional equity and/or debt financing and the attainment of profitable operations from the Company’s future business. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital as needed, the Company may be required to reduce the scope, delay, or eliminate some or all of its planned operations. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The financial statements reflect all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods shown. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
We currently have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the 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. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments which are based on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The results of their evaluation form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and circumstances. Our significant accounting policies are more fully discussed in the Notes to our Financial Statements.
Research and Development Costs
We charge research and development costs to operations as incurred in accordance with ASC 730-Research and Development, except in those cases in which such costs are reimbursable under customer funded contracts. These amounts are not reflected in the reported research and development expenses in each of the respective periods but are included in net sales with the related costs included in cost of sales in each of the respective periods. During each of the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and 2021 we expended $NIL and $7,800 on research and development costs, respectively.
Stock-Based Compensation
We account for stock-based transactions in which the Company receives services from employees, non-employees, directors or others in exchange for equity instruments based on the fair value of the award at the grant date in accordance with ASC 718 – Compensation-Stock Compensation. Stock-based compensation cost for stock options or warrants is estimated at the grant date based on each instrument’s fair value as calculated by the Black-Scholes option pricing model. We recognize stock-based compensation cost as expense ratably on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the award.

Stock Settled Debt
In certain instances, the Company will issue convertible notes which contain a provision in which the price of the conversion feature is priced at a fixed discount to the trading price of the Company’s common shares as traded in the over-the-counter market. In these instances, the Company records a liability, in addition to the principal amount of the convertible note, as stock-settled debt for the fixed value transferred to the convertible note holder from the fixed discount conversion feature. As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had recorded within Convertible Notes, net of discount, the amount of $6,223,130 and $5,075,840 for the value of the stock settled debt with respect to certain convertible notes.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06 to simplify the current guidance for convertible instruments and the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity. Additionally, the amendments affect the diluted EPS calculation for instruments that may be settled in cash or shares and for convertible instruments. The update also provides for expanded disclosure requirements to increase transparency. For SEC filers, excluding smaller reporting companies, this update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For all other entities, this Update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods therein.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are a smaller reporting company and are not required to provide this information.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as of September 30, 2022, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that, based on the material weaknesses discussed below, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of such date to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act were recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Act Commission’s rules and forms and that our disclosure controls are not effectively designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Our internal controls and procedures are not effective for the following reasons: (i) there is an inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives as management is comprised of only one person, who is the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer and, (ii) while the Company has a formal audit committee with a financial expert, and thus the Company lacks the board oversight role within the financial reporting process.
In order to mitigate the foregoing material weakness, we have engaged an outside accounting consultant with significant experience in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP to assist us in the preparation of our financial statements to ensure that these financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP. We will continue to monitor the effectiveness of this action and make any changes that our management deems appropriate.
We would need to hire additional staff to provide greater segregation of duties. Currently, it is not feasible to hire additional staff to obtain optimal segregation of duties. Management will continue to reassess this matter to determine whether improvement in segregation of duty is feasible. In addition, we would need to expand our board to include independent members.
Going forward, we intend to evaluate our processes and procedures and, where practicable and resources permit, implement changes in order to have more effective controls over financial reporting.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During the period covered by this report, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
