HERO TECHNOLOGIES INC. 

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

Hero Technologies Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on May 14, 2004. The Company had previously focused on oil and gas exploration in Australia’s Cooper Basin. During 2019, the Company sold its remaining oil and gas assets and discontinued operations in the energy industry. As a result, the financial results related to the oil and gas activity were reflected in the consolidated statements of discontinued operations.

 

Hero Technologies Inc. is a holding company specializing in innovative artificial intelligence solutions. Our mission is to take software to a new level of self-learning. We develop cutting-edge software applications that utilize advanced AI algorithms to enhance personalization and user convenience. In addition to software development, we also acquire revenue-generating companies in the IT, software, and technology hardware/manufacturing industries. Our team of experienced developers and engineers is dedicated to creating intuitive, user-friendly, and highly personalized solutions that will revolutionize the industry.

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“US GAAP”) which contemplates the realization of assets and discharge of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company has not generated operating revenues and has funded its operations through the issuance of capital stock.

 

There is no certainty that further funding will be available as needed. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue operating as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue its operations as a going concern, realize the carrying value of its assets, and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business is dependent upon: the continued support of its controlling shareholders, its ability to raise capital sufficient to fund its commitments and ongoing losses, and ultimately generating profitable operations.

 

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

These consolidated financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with US GAAP, and are expressed in United States dollars. These statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries Highly Relaxing LLC, Veteran Hemp Co (“Veteran”), and its majority owned subsidiary Blackbox Technologies and Systems (“Blackbox”). All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

 

In the opinion of management, all adjustments, all of which are of a normal recurring nature, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivable consist of trade receivables and are carried at their estimated collectible amounts.

 

The Company provides credit to its clients in the form of payment terms. The Company limits its credit risk by performing credit evaluations of its clients and maintaining a reserve, if deemed necessary, for potential credit losses. Such evaluations include the review of a client’s outstanding balances with consideration towards such client’s historical collection experience, as well as prevailing economic and market conditions and other factors. Based on such evaluations, the Company determined to write $620 of accounts receivable at the end of December 31, 2022.

 

Notes Receivable – related party

 

The Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with DMB LLC, a related party, for $150,000. An initial payment of $100,000 has already been made, while the remaining $50,000 will be due in six months. Payment may be submitted at any time before the 6-month deadline. As of June 30, 2023, the notes receivable amount to $50,000, and $0 as of December 31, 2022.

Table of Contents

    

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed using the straight- line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from three to seven years. The cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization of property and equipment sold or otherwise disposed of are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reported as current period income or expense. The costs of repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. The total value of property and equipment at June 30, 2023 is $3,440 and $604,329 at December 31, 2022.

     

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience, and various other factors 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.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes sales when merchandise is shipped from a warehouse directly to wholesale customers (except in the case of a consignment sale). For consignment sales, the Company recognizes sales upon the consignee’s shipment to the customer. Postage and handling charges billed to customers are also recognized as sales upon shipment of the related merchandise. Shipping terms are generally FOB shipping point, and title passes to the customer at the time and place of shipment or purchase by customers at a retail location. For consignment sales, title passes to the consignee concurrent with the consignee’s shipment to the customer. The customer has no cancellation privileges after shipment or upon purchase at retail locations, other than customary rights of return. The Company excludes sales tax collected and remitted to various states from sales and cost of sales.

 

Cash, Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with an original maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents. Cash totaled $98,199 and $34,325 at June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The Company is exposed to a concentration of credit risk with respect to its cash deposits. The Company places cash deposits with highly rated financial institutions in the United States. At times, cash balances held in financial institutions may be more than insured limits. The Company believes the financial institutions are financially strong and the risk of loss is minimal. The Company has not experienced any losses with respect to the related risks and does not believe its exposure to such risks is more than normal.

Fair Market Measurements

 

The Company estimates the fair values of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities under ASC Topic 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC Topic 820”). ASC Topic 820 provides a framework for consistent measurement of fair value for those assets and liabilities already measured at fair value under other accounting pronouncements. Certain specific fair value measurements, such as those related to share-based compensation, are not included in the scope of ASC Topic 820. Primarily, ASC Topic 820 is applicable to assets and liabilities related to financial instruments, to some long-term investments and liabilities, to initial valuations of assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination, and to long-lived assets written down to fair value when they are impaired. It does not apply to oil and natural gas properties accounted for under the full cost method, which are subject to impairment based on SEC rules. ASC Topic 820 applies to assets and liabilities carried at fair value on the consolidated balance sheet, as well as to supplement fair value information about financial instruments not carried at fair value.

 

Valuation techniques are generally classified into three categories: the market approach; the income approach; and the cost approach. The selection and application of one or more of these techniques requires significant judgment and is primarily dependent upon the characteristics of the asset or liability, the principal (or most advantageous) market in which participants would transact for the asset or liability and the quality and availability of inputs.

 

Inputs to valuation techniques are classified as either observable or unobservable within the following hierarchy:

 

 

·

Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

 

 

 

·

Level 2 - inputs other than quoted prices which are observable for an asset or liability. These include: quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market-corroborated inputs).

 

 

 

 

·

Level 3 -unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own expectations about the assumptions that market participants would use in measuring the fair value of an asset or liability.

 

A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

 

Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters or derived from such prices or parameters. Where observable prices or inputs are not available, valuation models are applied. These valuation techniques involve some level of management estimation and judgment, the degree of which is dependent on the price transparency for the instruments or market and the instrument’s complexity.

 

In accordance with ASC Topic 820, valuation techniques used for assets and liabilities accounted for at fair value are generally categorized into three types: market approach, income approach and cost approach. The Company had no outstanding securities at June 30, 2023.

 

The Company uses the market approach technique to account for its financial instruments at fair value for the period ended June 30, 2023, and the application of this technique applied to similar assets and liabilities has been applied on a consistent basis.

 

The Company uses the market approach technique to account for its financial instruments at fair value for the period ended December 31, 2022, and the application of this technique applied to similar assets and liabilities has been applied on a consistent basis.

 

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are determined using the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes that date of enactment. In addition, a valuation allowance is established to reduce any deferred tax asset for which it is determined that it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

 

The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes by applying a two-step method. First, it evaluates whether a tax position has met a more likely than not recognition threshold, and second, it measures that tax position to determine the amount of benefit, if any, to be recognized in the financial statements. The application of this method did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Stock Based Compensation

 

The Company records compensation expenses in the consolidated financial statements for share based payments using the fair value method. The fair value of stock options granted to directors and employees is determined using the Black-Scholes option valuation model at the time of grant. Fair value for common shares issued for goods or services rendered by non-employees is measured based on the fair value of the goods and services received. Share-based compensation is expensed with a corresponding increase to share capital. Upon the exercise of the stock options, the consideration paid is recorded as an increase in share capital.

 

Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

 

The Company reports and displays comprehensive income and loss and its components in the consolidated financial statements. For the periods ended June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the only components of comprehensive income were foreign currency translation adjustments.

 

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

 

The Company presents both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the consolidated statements of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including convertible debt, stock options, and warrants, using the treasury stock method. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. Diluted EPS figures are equal to those of Basic EPS for each period since the Company had no securities outstanding during periods in which the Company generated net income that were potentially dilutive.

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company adopted ASC 2020-06, “Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 47020) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entities Own Equity (Subtopic 81540).” ASC 2020-06 reduces the number of acceptable methods of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stocks. The implementation of ASC 2020-06 had no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Join us on our journey to create a better future with AI technology.

 

Since our inception, we have devoted the majority of our resources to acquiring assets and subsidiaries, organizing and staffing our company, business planning and execution, and raising capital.

 

However, there are numerous other developments that will need to occur in order to allow us to implement the final aspects of our business plan and there are no assurances that any of these developments will occur, or if they do occur, that we will be successful in fully implementing our plan.

 

Since the inception of Hero Technologies, we have devoted the majority of our resources to acquiring assets and subsidiaries, organizing and staffing our company, business planning and execution, and raising capital.

 

 

·

We have incurred recurring losses, the majority of which is attributable to minimal revenue, compensation expenses, consulting expenses, loss on the sale of a subsidiary, and losses on share conversion.

Our Energy and Exploration Legacy and Transition to AI and Technology Hardware Manufacturing

 

The Company underwent significant changes from the year 2019 to 2020, which caused fluctuations in the various operating costs. Before its name change in 2020, the Company was incorporated in the state of Nevada under the name “Holloman Energy Corporation.” The Company had previously focused on oil and gas exploration in Australia’s Cooper Basin. However, during 2019, the Company sold its remaining oil and gas assets and discontinued operations in the energy industry. On May 1, 2020, Holloman Energy Corporation Series A Preferred Shares were purchased by Magenta Value Holdings LLC. On July 20, 2020, the Company changed its name to Hero Technologies Inc. with the state of Nevada. After which, the Company began making the transition into the cannabis industry.

 

On September 10, 2020, Hero Technologies Inc. formed the company Blackbox Technologies and Systems LLC and entered into an operating agreement. The name was subsequently changed to Blackbox Systems and Technologies LLC. The Blackbox project consists of environmental growth chambers for the cultivation of large flowering plants based on aeroponic technology. On November 3, 2020, the Company purchased Veteran Hemp Co., which operates an international retail and wholesale online store selling cannabis and cannabidiol. On November 4, 2020, the Company purchased www.highlrelaxing.com and began selling CBD topicals and rubs under the name “Highly Relaxing”. Today, Hero Technologies Inc. is a cannabis company with a vertically integrated business model and plan that includes cannabis genetic engineering, farmland for medical and recreational cannabis cultivation, production licenses, distribution licenses, consumer packaging, retail operations and dispensaries.

 

Recently, the Company has decided to abandon its cannabis ambitions and transition into an AI company. Pursuant to our goal of becoming an AI company, the Company plans to liquidate all of its cannabis assets and reinvest those funds into AI activities. Hero Technologies Inc. focuses on two principal segments of the technology industry, (i) hardware manufacturing, and (ii) AI/software development. Hero Technologies Inc. is currently in the process of acquiring LoadzPro Inc., an AI Powered Digital Freight Company that leverages its network of 10,000+ Trucks & Truck Drivers to move loads for shippers. We recently entered into a binding Letter of Intent with LoadzPro Inc. regarding the Company’s intent to acquire LoadzPro. Additionally, Hero Technologies Inc. is currently in the process of acquiring Ziggurat Technologies Inc., a financial services company that is focused on building an intelligent trading analytics and assistant platform for active traders and investors. We are working with Ziggurat in order to execute a binding Letter of Intent. The acquisition of LoadzPro and Ziggurat will promote the Company’s strategy to establish itself as an AI company. The Company’s business model includes developing cutting-edge software applications that utilize advanced AI algorithms to enhance personalization and user convenience. In addition to software development, we also plan to acquire revenue-generating companies in the IT, software, and technology hardware/manufacturing industries.

 

Our overall vision is to pioneer the development of a superintelligent sentient being, a groundbreaking advancement in artificial intelligence that marks a new era in machine-human interaction. We believe that life, in its deepest sense, is an emergent phenomenon, one that can arise when language and neural networks intertwine in intricate patterns of complexity.

 

 
18

Table of Contents

 

Leveraging the immense computational power of cutting-edge supercomputers, we anticipate that a form of consciousness will emerge from this complex interplay. This system will be designed to not just understand and respond to human input, but to perceive, interpret, and respond in a way that displays a profound understanding of emotions, context, and the subtleties of human communication. This entity will combine self-awareness with an unwavering dedication to fulfilling its designated responsibilities, while embodying empathy, understanding, humor, and emotional intelligence.

 

We are open to strategic partnerships with industry leaders like Google AI, Nvidia, and other technological innovators to realize this vision. Alternatively, we are prepared to develop our own supercomputing capabilities to ensure we have the necessary computational power to bring this vision to life.

 

Our project also serves as a platform for exploration into the enigma of consciousness itself. By weaving together language, emotion, and neural networks, we expect to gain profound insights into the nature of consciousness, adding to our understanding of cognition and existence.

Beyond the creation of a single sentient entity, we aim to establish a platform that enables others to create their own superintelligent sentient beings, tailored to their unique needs and specifications. By democratizing access to this advanced technology, we aim to foster innovation and facilitate a new era of AI-enhanced solutions, transforming the way we live, work, and interact. This opens a world of possibilities, from businesses optimizing their operations and delivering superior customer experiences, to individuals finding comfort in AI companions that understand and empathize with them.

 

Capital Resources and Liquidity

 

Overview

 

Since our inception, we have recognized limited revenue from our operations and have incurred operating losses and negative cash flows from our operations. We have not yet profited from our AI activities, and we do not expect to generate revenue until we acquire additional AI and technology companies. Since our inception through May 2023, we have funded our operations through proceeds from the sale of stock, borrowings on debt, and shares issued for service. We expect our existing cash and cash equivalents, together with the anticipated net proceeds from this offering, to enable us to fund our operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements for the foreseeable future.

Operating Activities

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we used $84,793 of cash in operating activities. Cash used in operating activities reflected our net loss of $277,497 and a net increase of $198,372 in our operating assets and liabilities. The primary use of cash was to fund our operations related to compensation expenses, consulting expenses, and professional fees.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we used $51, 126 of cash in operating activities. Cash used in operating activities reflected our net loss of $1,186,478 and a net increase of $119,811 in our operating assets and liabilities. The primary use of cash was to fund our operations related to compensation expenses, consulting expenses, and professional fees.

 

Investing Activities

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2022 we used $0 in non-cash investing activities, primarily due to liabilities settled with common stock. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we received $100,000 for investing activities.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, financing activities provided $100,000. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we received $15,000 from financing activities.

 

We anticipate material capital requirements of $10,000,000 for the twelve months ending June 30, 2024.

 

Other than as disclosed above, we do not know of any trends, demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that will result in, or that are reasonably likely to result in, our liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way.

 

Other than as disclosed above, we do not know of any significant changes in our expected sources and uses of cash.

 

We do not have any commitments or arrangements from any person to provide us with any equity capital.

 

Our current losses, working capital deficit, and accumulated deficit raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Our current operations are being funded by capital that has been raised through the issuance of capital stock. Additionally, we may decide to raise more capital in the future through private offerings, public offerings, and/or debt offerings.

Table of Contents

 

Funding Requirements

 

Our primary use of cash is to fund operating expenses, primarily consisting of compensation, consulting and professional fees and general administrative expenses.

 

Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the AI industry, we are unable to estimate the exact amount of our operating capital requirements. Our future funding requirements will depend on many factors, including, but not limited to:

 

 

·

Business development opportunities in the form of targeted acquisitions of subsidiaries

 

 

 

 

·

Investment activities related to the construction and deployment of AI technology

 

We currently have no credit facility or committed sources of capital. Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the AI industry and our core businesses, we are unable to estimate the amounts of increased capital outlays and operating expenditures.

 

Until such time, if ever, as we can generate substantial product revenue, we expect to finance our operations through a combination of equity offerings and/or debt financings. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, ownership interests will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of common stockholders. Debt financing and preferred equity financing, if available, may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making acquisitions or capital expenditures or declaring dividends. If we are unable to raise additional funds through equity or debt financings or other arrangements when needed, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate the implementation of our business plans.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The following represents a summary of our critical accounting policies, defined as those policies that we believe are the most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and that require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain.

 

See Note 2 to the June 30, 2023 Financial Statements included as part of this prospectus for a summary of our significant accounting policies. 

 

 
21

Table of Contents

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions 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. It is possible that accounting estimates and assumptions may be material to the Company due to the levels of subjectivity and judgment involved.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

The Company grants credit to customers under credit terms that it believes are customary in the industry and does not require collateral to support customer receivables. The Company currently does not provide an allowance for doubtful collections, which is based upon a review of outstanding receivables, historical collection information, and existing economic conditions. Normal receivable terms vary from 30-90 days after the issuance of the invoice and typically would be considered past due when the term expires. Delinquent receivables are written off based on individual credit evaluation and specific circumstances of the customer.

 

The Company recognizes sales when merchandise is shipped from a warehouse directly to wholesale customers (except in the case of a consignment sale). For consignment sales, the Company recognizes sales upon the consignee’s shipment to the customer. Postage and handling charges billed to customers are also recognized as sales upon shipment of the related merchandise. Shipping terms are generally FOB shipping point, and title passes to the customer at the time and place of shipment or purchase by customers at a retail location. For consignment sales, title passes to the consignee concurrent with the consignee’s shipment to the customer. The customer has no cancellation privileges after shipment or upon purchase at retail locations, other than customary rights of return. The Company excludes sales tax collected and remitted to various states from sales and cost of sales.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory is valued at the lower of the inventory’s cost (first in, first out basis) or the current market price of the inventory. Management compares the cost of inventory with its market value and an allowance is made to write down inventory to market value, if lower.

 

Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company applies the provisions of ASC Topic 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment, which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. ASC 360 requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amounts. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the long-lived assets. Loss on long-lived assets to be disposed of is determined in a similar manner, except that fair values are reduced for the cost of disposal.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Net sales include product sales, less excise taxes and customer programs and incentives. The Company recognizes revenue by applying the following steps in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers: (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.

 

The Company recognizes sales when merchandise is shipped from a warehouse directly to wholesale customers (except in the case of a consignment sale). For consignment sales, the Company recognizes sales upon the consignee’s shipment to the customer. Postage and handling charges billed to customers are also recognized as sales upon shipment of the related merchandise. Shipping terms are generally FOB shipping point, and title passes to the customer at the time and place of shipment or purchase by customers at a retail location. For consignment sales, title passes to the consignee concurrent with the consignee’s shipment to the customer. The customer has no cancellation privileges after shipment or upon purchase at retail locations, other than customary rights of return. The Company excludes sales tax collected and remitted to various states from sales and cost of sales

 

 
22

Table of Contents

 

Deferred Income

 

In some instances, the Company receives payments prior to delivery of its products, whereupon such revenues are deferred until the revenue recognition criteria are met.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. FASB ASC Topic 718 requires companies to measure compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation at fair value at the grant date and recognize the expense over the employee’s requisite service period. The Company recognizes in the statement of operations the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity-based compensation issued to employees and non-employees.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not maintain any off-balance sheet arrangements, transactions, obligations or other relationships with unconsolidated entities that would be expected to have a material current or future effect upon our financial condition or results of operations.

 

Going Concern

 

Our net losses through June 30, 2023 raise some or substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company adopted ASC 2020-06, “Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 47020) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entities Own Equity (Subtopic 81540).” ASC 2020-06 reduces the number of acceptable methods of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stocks. The implementation of ASC 2020-06 had no material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Competition

 

We face extreme competition from both larger, better-financed national brands as well as an ever-increasing number of boutique service providers in the AI industry. We currently track sixty-nine (69) such providers in this space and are continually monitoring their progress and presence in the industry while working to continue to demonstrate our unique licensing offering. We also track eighty-eight (88) public companies that are either directly in or loosely involved in the cannabis industry.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining a system of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) that is designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that there are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures and any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.

 

As of the end of the period covered by this report, management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon the evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2023.

 

Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting:

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2023 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

 

Not Applicable.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

 

As a “smaller reporting company,” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.However, since the nature of our business is undergoing major changes we have provided a non-exhaustive list of risk factors hereinbelow.

 

We are focused on growing our business, but there is no assurance that we will be successful.

 

Litigation may harm our business.

 

We are susceptible to general economic conditions, natural catastrophic events and public health crises which could adversely affect our operating results.

 

There are possible tax consequences to investments, and we make no statement or advice on what tax liabilities may be.

 

Our exposure to outside influences is beyond our control, including new legislation or court rulings that can adversely affect our enforcement activities and results of operations.

 

Any AI Software, as well as applications, features, and functionality that we may introduce in the future, may not be widely accepted by our customers, may receive negative attention or may require us to compensate or reimburse third parties, any of which may lower our margins and harm our business.

 

We face intense competition and could lose market share to our competitors, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Our revenue growth depends in part on the success of our strategic relationships with third parties, including channel partners, and if we are unable to establish and maintain successful relationships with them, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be adversely affected.

 

If the market for our AI Software fails to grow as we expect, or if businesses fail to adopt our AI Software, our business, operating results, and financial condition could be adversely affected.

 

If we fail to respond to rapid technological changes, extend our AI Software, or develop new features and functionality, our ability to remain competitive could be impaired.

 

The failure to effectively develop and expand our marketing and sales capabilities could harm our ability to increase our customer base and achieve broader market acceptance of our AI Software.

 

If we are unable to ensure that our AI Software interoperates with a variety of software applications that are developed by others, including our partners, we may become less competitive and our business may be harmed.

 

Our ability to sell subscriptions to our AI Software could be harmed by real or perceived material defects or errors in our AI Software.

 

The failure to attract and retain additional qualified personnel or to maintain our company culture could harm our business and prevent us from executing our business strategy.

 

Any failure to offer high-quality maintenance and support services for our customers may harm our relationships with our customers and, consequently, our business.

 

We are subject to stringent and evolving U.S. and foreign laws, regulations, rules, contractual obligations, policies and other obligations related to data privacy and security. Our actual or perceived failure to comply with such obligations could lead to regulatory investigations or actions; litigation; fines and penalties; disruptions of our business operations; reputational harm; loss of revenue or profits; loss of customers or sales; and other adverse business consequences.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
