Notes to the Financial Statements

June 30, 2019

(Unaudited)

High Desert Holding Corp. (“Company”) was organized in the state of Nevada in September 2013. The Company is a precious and non-precious mineral exploration company. The Company is initially focused on identifying both public and privately held land that have historically demonstrated commercially viable resources primarily located in the Western United States, particularly Nevada.

The Company has a mineral property located in Nevada has not yet determined whether these properties contain a viable resource. Future exploration and development of this and any other properties will be dependent upon the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to satisfy the expenditure requirements under the property agreements to complete the development of the properties and upon the ability to raise additional capital.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and, therefore, do not include all information and footnotes which are normally included in the Company’s Form 10-K. These financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items or items discussed herein) that management believes are necessary to fairly state results for the interim periods presented. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of annual results of operations.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in banks and financial instruments which mature within three months of the date of purchase. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 the Company did not have any cash equivalents.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Loss per Share

The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with GAAP. This requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss 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 under the treasury stock method using the if-converted method. The Company does not currently have any instruments issued and outstanding that are potentially dilutive.

Leases

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02 – Leases (Accounting Standards Codification “ASC” Topic 842. Under the new guidance a lessee will be required to recognize assets and liabilities for leases with lease terms more than 12 months, whether that lease be classified as a capital or operating lease. The Company adopted ASC 842 effective January 1, 2019. As of the date of adoption and through June 30, 2019 the Company did not have any non-cancellable contracts containing a lease.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.  Since inception, the Company has not identified any proven or probable reserve and correspondingly has not generated any revenue during its exploration stage. This raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financials do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty. The Company needs to raise additional funds to continue as a going concern.

As of June 30, 2019, and December 31, 2018, we owed Mr. Kersey $11,278 and $409, respectively, for administrative and travel expenses paid on our behalf. Mr. Kersey has agreed to defer repayment of these expenses until the Company’s cash resources significantly increase. In addition to these obligations, the Company incurred director’s fees due to Mr. Kersey totaling $5,000.

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company issued 200,000 shares of restricted and unregistered shares of common stock for the settlement of previously accrued director fees totaling $40,000. 

During the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company sold certain mining equipment that had no remaining book value on the date of sale for total cash proceeds of $4,000 and $82,500, respectively. As a result of the sales, the Company recognized a gain of $4,000 and $82,500, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 in the accompanying statements of operations. 

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, the Company issued 200,000 shares of restricted and unregistered shares of common stock for the settlement of previously accrued director fees totaling $40,000. 

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, Unaudited Financial Statements, and Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements contain forward-looking statements that discuss, among other things, future expectations and projections regarding future developments, operations, and financial conditions. All forward-looking statements are based on management's existing beliefs about present and future events outside of management's control and on assumptions that may prove to be incorrect. If any underlying assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated, projected, or intended.  We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, changes in expectations or events or circumstances after the date this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is filed.

When this report uses the words "we," "us," "our," or "HDHC" and the "Company," they refer to High Desert Holding Corp.

Overview

Since our inception in 2013, we have been engaged in the identification, potential acquisition, and on-going exploration of precious and non-precious mineral properties located in the Western United States with an initial emphasis in Nevada. Until May 2015, we did not have patented or unpatented mineral claims and our activities only consisted of initial discussions and due diligence sample testing.

We currently hold ten (10) unpatented mining claims located in Esmeralda County, Nevada, commonly known as "Kibby Flats Property". We also hold fifty (50) unpatented mining claims commonly referred to as the "QR Property" located in Humboldt County, Nevada.

Funding permitted, we expect to devote the majority of our efforts permitting and exploring the QR Property. Since the end of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 and through the date of this report, we were unable to commence material field activities due our lack of financial resources.

Results of Operations

Revenues

We have not earned any revenues since our inception and we do not anticipate earning revenues in the near future.

Operating Expenses

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 we did not incur any exploration costs as a result of our focus on obtaining appropriate funding to begin our planned exploration program. Additionally, we received a refund associated with our QR Claim fees totaling $1,550 during the three months ended June 30, 2018. As our funding permits, we expect to incur increasing exploration costs for at least the next twelve months.

During the three months ended June 30, 2019, our general and administrative costs decreased approximately $4,600 to approximately $19,000 from the prior comparable period of 2018. During the six months ended June 30, 2019 our general and administrative costs decreased by approximately $6,000 from approximately$46,000 incurred in the six month period ended June 30, 2018. These decreases primarily consist of reductions in travel costs incurred. General and administrative expense primarily consists of director fees totaling $10,000 per quarter and professional fees associated with regulatory compliance and facilities costs to maintain our corporate office.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2019, the Company had a working capital deficit of approximately $165,000. Nearly all current obligations due, inclusive of $145,000 of director fees, are held by related parties that informally agreed to defer payment until the Company’s financial resources improve (however, they are under no formal obligation to continue to do so).

During the six months ended June 30, 2019 our cash used in operations was due to the Company continuing to incur operating expenses included in our net loss of approximately $36,000.

Our current available capital reserves are not sufficient for the Company to remain operational. We require additional equity and / or debt financing to implement our exploration and other business plans.

Our auditors have issued a "going concern" opinion on our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018, meaning that there is substantial doubt we can continue as an on-going business for the next twelve months unless we obtain additional capital. No substantial revenues are anticipated until we have completed one or more financings and implemented our plan of operations. Our sole Officer, and other affiliates, have provided the financial resources to continue as a going concern, however, they have no obligations to do so.

We have achieved success in using shares of our restricted and unregistered shares of common stock in making capital asset acquisitions including mining equipment and mineral properties. We expect to continue to issue shares for certain future capital acquisitions and to compensate certain officers, directors, and other consultants; however, there is no guarantee we will be able to do so at terms favorable to our operating plans or at all.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our Unaudited Financial Statements and Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates, judgments, and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. We continually evaluate the accounting policies and estimates used to prepare the condensed financial statements. The estimates are based on historical experience and assumptions believed to be reasonable under current facts and circumstances. Actual amounts and results could differ from these estimates made by management. Certain accounting policies that require significant management estimates and are deemed critical to our results of operations or financial position are discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

As a "smaller reporting company" (as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K), the Company is not required to provide the information required by this item.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures (Item 307)

The Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), as of June 30, 2019, the date of the Company's most recently completed fiscal quarter end. 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 and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective, as of June 30, 2019, in ensuring that material information that we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms due to limited segregation of duties, lack of independent directors, and no written internal control procedure manual. The Company plans to address the weaknesses in controls as soon as the Company determines that the financial situation allows the Company to expend its currently limited resources to mitigate the weaknesses in controls.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. (Item 308)

There were no material changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2019, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
