INTERNATIONAL LAND ALLIANCE, INC.

Notes to Financial Statements

For the Three Months Ended March 31, 2019

 

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND GOING CONCERN

 

Nature of Operations

 

International Land Alliance, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Wyoming on September 26, 2013 (inception). The Company is a residential land development company with target properties located in the Baja California, Norte region of Mexico and southern California. The Company’s principal activities are purchasing properties, obtaining zoning and other entitlements required to subdivide the properties into residential and commercial building plots, securing financing for the purchase of the plots, improving the properties infrastructure and amenities, and selling the plots to homebuyers, retirees, investors and commercial developers.

 

The unaudited financial statements herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The accompanying interim unaudited financial statements have been prepared under the presumption that users of the interim financial information have either read or have access to the audited financial statements for the latest year ended December 31, 2018. Accordingly, note disclosures which would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the December 31, 2018 audited financial statements have been omitted from these interim unaudited financial statements.

 

Certain information and note disclosures included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with United States general accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2019, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2019. For further information, refer to the audited financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2018 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 24, 2019.

 

Going Concern

 

The Company has faced significant liquidity shortages as shown in the accompanying financial statements. As of March 31, 2019, the Company’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $1,155,358 The Company has recorded a net loss of $234,518 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and has an accumulated deficit of $5,613,390 as of March 31, 2019. Net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $177,361. Although the Company has had difficulty in obtaining working lines of credit from financial institutions and trade credit from vendors, management has been able to raise capital from private placements and further expand the Company’s operations geographically to continue its growth. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company initiated Private Placements of its securities, and had warrants exercised receiving cash proceeds of $98,500.

 

Although the Company has not earned any revenues since inception to March 31, 2019, the Company is continuing to focus its efforts on increased marketing campaigns to sell the plots of land. Americans and Canadians can own property in Mexico through a Fideicomiso or Bank Trust. Any foreigner can institute a Fideicomiso (the equivalent to an American beneficial trust) through a Mexican bank (ILA has selected Banco Bajio) in order to purchase real estate anywhere in Mexico, including what is commonly called the Restricted Zone. To do so, the buyer requests a Mexican bank to act as a trustee on his/her behalf. This conveys the same bundle of rights that holding property “fee simple” does in the United States. The property can be willed, leased, sold, rented, or improved in perpetuity and it is irrevocable. This title management system is very in common in Mexico. However, management determined in prior reporting periods that it does not fulfill “ownership”, as title is held by Banco Bajio, pursuant to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP” or “GAAP”). Based on advice from counsel, the Company will be taking title to all 497 acres fee simple in name of its wholly-owned subsidiary, International Land Alliance, S.A. de C.V.. Banco Bajio will continue to act as Trustee for all Fideimosos. This will have an impact on the Company’s financial statements, as management believes it will then allow us to record the 497-acre Oasis Park Resort on the Company’s balance sheet, record sales (both sales to date and going forward), as well as construction investments. Upon completion of the Oasis Park Resort, the Company also plans to take title fee simple for its Villas del Enologo in Rancho Tecate and Valle Divino in Ensenada, Baja California, while using Banco Bajio for all Fideicomisos.

 

Management anticipates that the Company’s capital resources will significantly improve if its plots of land gain wider market recognition and acceptance resulting in increased plot sales. If the Company is not successful with its marketing efforts to increase sales and weak demand for purchase of plots continues, the Company will experience a shortfall in cash and it will be necessary to further reduce its operating expenses in a manner or obtain funds through equity or debt financing in sufficient amounts to avoid the need to curtail its future operations subsequent to March 31, 2019. Given the liquidity and credit constraints in the markets, the business may suffer, should the credit markets not improve in the near future. The direct impact of these conditions is not fully known. However, there can be no assurance that the Company would be able to secure additional funds if needed and that if such funds were available on commercially reasonable terms or in the necessary amounts, and whether the terms or conditions would be acceptable to the Company. In such case, the reduction in operating expenses might need to be substantial in order for the Company to generate positive cash flow to sustain the operations of the Company.

 

Public Listing

 

On March 5, 2019, the Company received its trading symbol “ILAL” from FINRA. On April 4, 2019, the Company was approved to have its common stock traded on the OTCQB. On April 12, 2019, the Company became eligible for electronic clearing and settlement through the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) in the United States. The DTC is a subsidiary of the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation and manages the electronic clearing and settlement of publicly traded companies. Securities that are eligible to be electronically cleared and settled through DTC are considered “DTC eligible.” This electronic method of clearing securities creates efficiency of the receipt of stock and cash, and thus accelerates the settlement process for investors and brokers, enabling the stock to be traded over a much wider selection of brokerage firms by coming into compliance with their requirements. Being DTC eligible is expected to greatly simplify the process of trading and transferring the Company’s common shares on the OTCQB.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The Company maintains its accounting records on an accrual basis in accordance with GAAP.

 

These consolidated financial statements are presented in United States dollars. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q. All adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods have been made and are of a recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed herein.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, ILA Fund I, LLC (the “ILA Fund”) a Company incorporated in the State of Wyoming and International Land Alliance, S.A. de C.V., a company incorporated in Mexico (“ILA Mexico”); the Company has a 100% equity interest in ILA Mexico. ILA Fund includes cash as it’s only asset with minimal expenses as of March 31, 2019. The sole purpose of this entity is strategic funding for the operations of the Company. ILA Mexico has no assets, no liabilities and minimal expenses as of March 31, 2019. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the valuation of assets and liabilities. Management 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 managements estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

 

Fair value of Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

 

ASC 820, “ Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:

 

Level 1

 

Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2

 

Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data. If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

 

 8 
Table of Contents   

 

Level 3

 

Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and notes payable to a third party. Pursuant to ASC 820, “ Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” and ASC 825, “ Financial Instruments”, the fair value of our cash equivalents is determined based on “Level 1” inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The Company believes that the recorded values of all the other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations.

 

As of March 31, 2019, there are no assets and liabilities that were measured or recognized at fair value on a recurring basis.

 

Acquisitions

 

Amounts paid for acquisitions are allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair value at the date of acquisition. The fair value of identifiable tangible and intangible assets is based on valuations that use information and assumptions provided by management. Identifiable tangible and intangible assets with finite lives are depreciation and amortized over their useful lives. Acquisition-related costs, including, legal, accounting, and other costs, are capitalized in asset acquisitions and for business combinations are expensed in the periods in which the costs are incurred. The results of operations of acquired assets are included in the financial statements from the acquisition date.

 

Land and Buildings

 

Land and building are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided by the use of the straight-line and accelerated methods for financial and tax reporting purposes, respectively, over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally 5 to 10 years. Buildings will have an estimated useful life of 20 years. Land is an indefinite lived asset that is stated at fair value at date of acquisition.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

On January 1, 2018, we adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 605, Revenue Recognition (Topic 605). Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under Topic 606. As the Company has not had any revenue since inception, the impact of adopting the new revenue standard was not material to our financial statements and there was no adjustment to beginning retained earnings on January 1, 2018.

 

Under Topic 606, revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

 

We determine revenue recognition through the following steps:

 

identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;
identification of the performance obligations in the contract;
determination of the transaction price;
allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, “ Income Taxes” . The asset and liability method provide that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities, and for operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.

 

When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above should be reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. Management makes estimates and judgments about our future taxable income that are based on assumptions that are consistent with our plans and estimates. Should the actual amounts differ from our estimates, the amount of our valuation allowance could be materially impacted. Any adjustment to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance would be recorded in the income statement for the periods in which the adjustment is determined to be required. The Company does not believe that it has taken any positions that would require the recording of any additional tax liability nor does it believe that there are any unrealized tax benefits that would either increase or decrease within the next year.

Loss Per Share

 

The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, “ Earnings per Share” . ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted net earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the statements of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing loss available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, total warrants issued and outstanding convertible into common stock amounted to 291,200 shares and 1,075,200 shares, respectively.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company maintains its cash in bank and financial institution deposits that at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts through March 31, 2019.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326).” The new standard amends guidance on reporting credit losses for assets held at amortized cost basis and available-for-sale debt securities. This ASU is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this standard did no have an impact on the Company’s financial statements.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842).” The objective of this update is to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual periods and is to be applied utilizing a modified retrospective approach. The Company currently has no leases, therefore, there was no impact on the financial statements.

 

NOTE 3 – EMERALD GROVE ASSET PURCHASE

 

On July 30, 2018, Jason Sunstein, the Chief Financial Officer, entered into a Residential Purchase Agreement (“RPA” or “the Agreement”) to acquire real property located in Hemet, California, which included approximately 57 acres of land and a structure for $1.1 million from an unrelated seller. The property includes the main parcel of land with an existing structure along with three additional parcels of land which are vacant lots to be used for the purpose of development. The purpose of the transaction was as an investment in real property to be assigned to the Company subsequent to acquisition. The property was acquired by Mr. Sunstein since it was required by the seller to transfer the property for consideration from an individual versus a separate legal entity. The transaction closed on March 18, 2019 and the consideration included a loan financed in the amount of $605,000 (see Note 10) in addition to cash consideration of $524,613 which came from a portion of funds loaned by investors of the Company to be repaid as interest bearing notes payable (see Note 10). On March 18, 2019, the Mr. Sunstein assigned the deed of the property to the Company. The attached mortgage obligation was assumed by the Company, as approval by the Board of Directors in March 2019. The mortgage loan was not assigned to the Company by the lender, however the lender acknowledged that the transfer of the property to the Company did not trigger an event of default.  Mr. Sunstein remains a guarantor on the mortgage. The Company recorded the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at fair value on the date of assignment and assumption.

 

The Company has included all allowed acquisition costs of $22,050 in the value of the capitalized assets. The building and land asset values were assigned using a purchase price allocation based on the appraised land values. The total of the consideration plus acquisition costs assets of $1,122,050 will be allocated to land and building in the following amounts: $180,470 - Land; $941,581 - Building. The land is an indefinite long-lived asset that were assessed for impairment as a grouped asset with the building on a periodic basis. The building has an estimated useful life of 20 years and were depreciated on a straight-line basis.

NOTE 9 – INCOME TAX

 

Income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 is summarized as follows.

 

   March 31, 2019   March 31, 2018 
         
Deferred:          
Federal  $(49,249)  $(404,177)
State         
Change in valuation allowance   49,249    404,177 
Income tax expense (benefit)  $   $ 

 

The tax effects of temporary differences that gave rise to significant portions of deferred tax assets and liabilities at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 are as follows:

 

   March 31, 2019   December 31, 2018 
Deferred tax assets:          
Net operating loss carry forward  $541,370   $492,121 
Total gross deferred tax assets   541,370    492,121 
Less - valuation allowance   (541,370)   (492,121)
Net deferred tax assets  $   $ 

 

Deferred income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of deferred taxes related primarily to differences between the bases of certain assets and liabilities for financial and tax reporting. The deferred taxes represent the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will either be deductible or taxable when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled.

 

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the Tax Act) was enacted, significantly altering U.S. corporate income tax law. The SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin 118, which allows companies to record reasonable estimates of enactment impacts where all of the underlying analysis and calculations are not yet complete. The provisional estimates must be finalized within a one-year measurement period. The Company reduced its net domestic deferred tax asset balance by $219,863 due to the reduction in corporate tax rate from 34% to 21%. These adjustments are fully offset by a change in the Company’s U.S. valuation allowance.

 

At March 31, 2019, the Company had accumulated deficit of approximately $5,600,000 for U.S. federal and Wyoming income tax purposes, such net operating losses (NOLs) are available to offset future taxable income expiring on various dates through 2035. Due to changes in our ownership through common stock issuances, the utilization of NOLs may be subject to annual limitations and discounts under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. We have not conducted a complete analysis to determine the extent of these limitations or any future limitation. Such limitations could result in the permanent loss of a significant portion of the NOLs. The Company has recorded a 100% valuation allowance on the deferred tax assets due to the uncertainty of its realization. The net change in the valuation allowance for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 was an increase of $49,249 and $404,177, respectively.

 

In the normal course of business, the Company’s income tax returns are subject to examination by various taxing authorities. Such examinations may result in future tax and interest assessment by these taxing authorities. Accordingly, the Company believes that it is more likely than not that it will realize the benefits of tax positions it has taken in its tax returns or for the amount of any tax benefit that exceeds the cumulative probability threshold in accordance with FASB ASC 740. Differences between the estimated and actual amounts determined upon ultimate resolution, individually or in the aggregate, are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the company’s financial position. The Company believes its tax positions are all highly certain of being upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for unrecognized tax benefits. As of March 31, 2019, tax years 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018 remain open for examination by the IRS and California. The Company has received no notice of audit from the Internal Revenue Service or California for any of the open tax years.

Common stock

 

In April 2019, the Board approved the issuance of 2,363,200 shares of common stock for cash, services, warrants, and plots promised for cash or services with a value of approximately $321,000. The majority of these shares included the issuance of 1,200,000 shares to be issued for consulting services valued at approximately $120,000. The share issuance was contingent upon certain triggering events including the effectuation of our public listing and successful commencement of trading under the Company’s new ticker symbol. Of the 2.4 million shares, 657,200 were included in stock payable as of March 31, 2019. All shares were issued on May 2, 2019 as noted in a board resolution upon the success of triggering events previously noted.

 

Settlement of debt

 

On April 5, 2019 the Company settled the promissory note with Yellowstone for the remaining total balance with fees of $4,000 (see Note 10). The note was satisfied in full with cash on that date with a confirmation that the balance was fully satisfied.

 

On April 17, 2019 the Company settled the promissory note with Last Chance Funding with a remaining total balance of $4,375 for $3,000 (see Note 10). The note was satisfied in full with cash on that date with a confirmation that the balance was fully satisfied.

 

On April 25, 2019 the Company settled the promissory note with On Deck with a remaining total balance of $11,622 for $11,600 in six monthly payments (see Note 10).

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

 

Overview of Our Company

 

International Land Alliance, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated pursuant to the laws of the State of Wyoming on September 26, 2013. We are based in San Diego, California. We are a residential land development company with target properties located primarily in the Baja California Norte region of Mexico and southern California. Our principal activities are purchasing properties, obtaining zoning and other entitlements required to subdivide the properties into residential and commercial building lots, securing financing for the purchase of the lots, improving the properties’ infrastructure and amenities, and selling the lots to homebuyers, retirees, investors and commercial developers. We offer the option of financing (i.e. taking a promissory note from the buyer for all or part of the purchase price) with a guaranteed acceptance on any purchase for every customer.

 

Overview

 

As of March 31, 2019 we had:

 

  Conducted market research to identify potential home buyers in the United States, Canada, Europe, and Asia. Developed marketing materials in print media and online;
     
  Developed an interactive website for visitors to view condominium and villa options and allow customization;

 

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2019 compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2018

 

We did not record any revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018. Total operating expenses recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2019 were $180,914 compared to $221,078 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. We had a net loss during the three months ended March 31, 2019, of $(234,518); and a net loss of $(233,420) during the three months ended March 31, 2018.

 

The factors that will most significantly affect future operating results will be:

 

  The acquisition of land with lots for sale;
     
  The sale price of future lots, compared to the sale price of lots in other resorts in Mexico;
     
  The cost to construct a home on the lots to be transferred, and the quality of construction;
     
  The quality of our amenities; and
     
  The global economy and the demand for vacation homes.

 

Other than the foregoing we do not know of any trends, events or uncertainties that have had, or are reasonably expected to have, a material impact on our revenues or expenses.

 

Capital Resources and Liquidity

 

Cash was $111,280 and $971 at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, we recorded a loss of $234,518 and $233,420 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and three months ended March 31, 2018, respectively. Our working capital deficit at March 31, 2019 was $1,155,358 and net cash flows used in operating activities for three months ended March 31, 2019 were $(177,361). These factors and our ability to raise additional capital to accomplish our objectives, raises doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We expect our expenses will continue to increase during the foreseeable future as a result of increased operations and the development of our current business operations. We anticipate generating only minimal revenues over the next twelve months. Consequently, we are dependent on the proceeds from future debt or equity investments to sustain our operations and implement our business plan. If we are unable to raise sufficient capital, we will be required to delay or forego some portion of our business plan, which would have a material adverse effect on our anticipated results from operations and financial condition. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain necessary amounts of capital or that our estimates of our capital requirements will prove to be accurate.

 

We presently do not have any significant credit available, bank financing or other external sources of liquidity. Due to our operating losses, our operations have not been a source of liquidity. We will need to acquire other profitable entities or obtain additional capital in order to expand operations and become profitable. In order to obtain capital, we may need to sell additional shares of our common stock or borrow funds from private lenders. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining additional funding.

 

To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of such securities may result in dilution to existing stockholders. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of debt securities, these securities may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to holders of common stock and the terms of such debt could impose restrictions on our operations. Regardless of whether our cash assets prove to be inadequate to meet our operational needs, we may seek to compensate providers of services by issuance of stock in lieu of cash, which may also result in dilution to existing shareholders. Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses, fail to collect significant amounts owed to us, or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek alternative financing.

No assurance can be given that sources of financing will be available to us and/or that demand for our equity/debt instruments will be sufficient to meet our capital needs, or that financing will be available on terms favorable to us. If funding is insufficient at any time in the future, we may not be able to take advantage of business opportunities or respond to competitive pressures or may be required to reduce the scope of our planned development, any of which could have a negative impact on our business and operating results. In addition, insufficient funding may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, which could require us to:

 

  Curtail our operations significantly, or
  Seek arrangements with strategic partners or other parties that may require us to relinquish significant rights to our development of resorts and correlated services, or
  Explore other strategic alternatives including a merger or sale of our Company.

 

Operating Activities

 

Net cash flows used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was ($177,361) which resulted primarily due to the loss of $234,518 offset by an increase in accrued expenses of $60,755. Net cash flows used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $(321,257) which resulted primarily due G&A expenses of $233,420 and increase in accrued expenses of $97,682.

 

Investing Activities

 

Net cash flows used in investing activities was ($517,051) for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The funds were used for the acquisition of an investment property. There were no investment cash activities for the three months ended March 31, 2018.

 

Financing Activities

 

Net cash flows provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $804,721 primarily from cash proceeds from sale of common stocks and warrants of $10,000 and cash proceeds from sale of common stock, warrants and plots of land promised to investors, net of expenses of $42,500, cash proceeds from a warrant exercise of $46,000, and cash proceeds from notes payable of $710,000. Net cash flows provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $319,000 primarily from cash proceeds from sale of common stocks and warrants of $48,500, and cash proceeds from sale of common stock, warrants and plots of land promised to investors, net of expenses of $203,000 and cash proceeds from note payable of $67,500.

 

As a result of these activities, we experienced an increase in cash and cash equivalents of $110,309 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, and a decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $2,257 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, respectively. Our ability to continue as a going concern is still dependent on our success in obtaining additional financing from investors or from sale of our common shares.

 

We have no agreements in place with our shareholders, officers and directors or with any third parties to fund operations. We have not negotiated nor has available to us any other third-party sources of liquidity. Other than the acquisition development of future resort properties in Mexico, we do not anticipate any material capital requirements for the next twelve months ending March 2020.

 

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements

 

Since our inception through March 31, 2019, we have not engaged in any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d - 15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Internal control over financial reporting is a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (i) in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of our financial statements; (iii) provide reasonable assurance that our receipts and expenditures are made in accordance with management authorization; and (iv) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the controls will prevent or detect misstatements. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there is only the reasonable assurance that our controls will succeed in achieving their goals under all potential future conditions.

 

Management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2019 based on the framework in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) 2013. Based on our evaluation under the COSO framework, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of March 31, 2019. Such conclusion was reached based on the following material weaknesses noted by management:

 

a) We have a lack of segregation of duties due to the small size of the Company.

 

b) The Company did not maintain reasonable control over records underlying transactions necessary to permit preparation of the Company’s financial statements.

 

c) Lack of controls that provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposal of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

d) Lack of a formal fulltime CFO position who can devote significant attention to financial reporting resulted in multiple audit adjustments.

 

e) Lack of a functioning audit committee, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures. Management believes the lack of a functioning audit committee results in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, which could result in a material misstatement in our financial statements in future period.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

With continued efforts to increase oversight and to remediate any underlying control issues, the Company has engaged the services of a third-party consulting firm to implement adequate processes and procedures to strengthen controls. The goal is of the Company is to build an established finance and accounting department as the Company continues to increase operations. Other than with respect to the ongoing plan for improved internal controls, there has been no change to our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Management expects to strengthen internal control further during 2019 which is subject to available financial resources by developing stronger business and financial processes for accounting for transactions such as warrant/stock issuances, which will enhance internal control for the Company.
