Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2021
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.
On June 30, 2011, International Land Alliance, SA De CV (“ILA Mexico”) was formed as a Mexican corporation to acquire from Baja Residents Club, S.A. de CV (“BRC”), a related party with common ownership and control by the Company’s CEO, Robert Valdes, 497 acres south of San Felipe, Baja California, known as the Oasis Park project and 20 acres in Ensenada, Baja California, known as the Valle Divino project.
On June 18, 2019, BRC transferred title to the Company for the Oasis Park property. It was previously subject to approval by the Mexican government in Baja, California which was finalized in June 2019. As consideration for the promise to transfer title, the Company previously issued 750,000 or $ per common share. shares of founder’s common stock that was valued at $
On March 18, 2019, the Company acquired real property located in Hemet, California, which included approximately 80 acres of land and two structures for $1.1 million. The property includes the main parcel of land with existing structures along with three additional parcels of land which are vacant plots to be used for the purpose of development. The Company is currently generating lease income from this property.
In October 2019, the Company entered into an agreement with Valdeland, S.A. de C.V.(“Valdeland”), a Mexican corporation controlled by our CEO, Robert Valdes, to acquire 1 acre of land at the Bajamar Ocean Front Golf Resort in Ensenada, Baja California, known as the Plaza Bajamar project.
The transfer of title for Valle Divino and Plaza Bajamar projects is subject to approval from the Mexican government in Baja California. Although management believes that the transfer of title to the land will be approved and transferred by the end of our fourth fiscal quarter of 2021, there is no assurance that such transfer of title will be approved in that time frame or at all.
On October 25, 2020, the Company entered into a business agreement with A&F Agriculture LLC (“A&F”), in which the parties agreed to operate a business for the purpose of commercial agriculture at the Company’s property in Southern California. A&F will be the managing party of the business agreement. The Company will provide A&F with the land and water supply for the purpose of the cultivation. All revenue and expenses associated with the cultivation will be split equally among parties. Franck Ingrande is the Manager of A&F and is also the President of the Company.
On March 29, 2021, the Company executed a Letter of Intent (the “LOI”) to acquire two parcels of land in Rosarito Beach, Baja California, Mexico, with total surface area of roughly 32 acres valued at approximately $6 million. The all-stock transaction includes plans and permits for an existing 450-homesite project situated near the Pacific Ocean, with existing sales averaging $50,000 per residential plot. The LOI includes the accounts receivable for plots sold and the remaining unsold plots. The closing is subject to standard conditions including, completion of due diligence by both parties and the negotiation and execution of mutually acceptable definitive documents. The Agreement merely represents the present understanding with respect to the intended acquisition transaction and is not binding upon the parties. Due to continuing impact of Covid-19, the Seller’s ability to subdivide the master parcel has been delayed. Upon subdivision, the Company will finalize the purchase agreement.

Liquidity and Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.
Management evaluated all relevant conditions and events that are reasonably known or reasonably knowable, in the aggregate, as of the date the consolidated financial statements were available to be issued and determined that substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company entered into securities purchase agreements with institutional and accredited investors for the issuance of an aggregate of 1.7 million. As of September 30, 2021, the Company used portion of the net proceeds to repay its promissory notes for approximately $0.8 million and used approximately $0.3 million in operations. Management anticipates using the remaining net proceeds for construction at its current projects, sales and marketing, and general working capital purposes shares of common stock with an equivalent number of warrants for net proceeds of approximately $
The Company has faced significant liquidity shortages as shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. As of September 30, 2021, the Company’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by $1.4 million. The Company has recorded a net loss of approximately $3.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and has an accumulated deficit of $13.2 million as of September 30, 2021. Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, was approximately $0.7 million. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management anticipates that the Company’s capital resources will significantly improve if its projects gain wider market recognition and acceptance resulting in increased revenue from sales. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to generate revenues and raise further capital.

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”), Emerald Grove Estates LLC (“Emerald Estates”), incorporated in the State of California; the Company has a 100% equity interest in ILA Mexico and in Emerald Estates. ILA Fund includes cash as its only assets with minimal expenses as of September 30, 2021. The sole purpose of ILA Fund is strategic funding for the operations of the Company. ILA Mexico has plots held for sale for the Oasis Park Resort, no liabilities, and minimal expenses as of September 30, 2021. The Company granted deed of the property in Sycamore Road, Hemet, California to Emerald Estates. 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 management’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected. Significant estimates include:
■ | Liability for legal contingencies. |
■ | Useful life of buildings. |
■ | Assumptions used in valuing equity instruments. |
■ | Deferred income taxes and related valuation allowances. |
■ | Going concern. |
■ | Assessment of long-lived asset for impairment. |
■ | Significant influence or control over the Company’s investee. |
Segment Reporting
The Company operates as one reportable segment under ASC 280, Segment Reporting. The Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) regularly reviews the financial information of the Company at a consolidated level in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performances.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of September 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, respectively.

Fair value of Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements
Accounting Standards Codification (“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.
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.
As defined by ASC 820, the fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced or liquidation sale, which was further clarified as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (“an exit price”) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
The reported fair values for financial instruments that use Level 2 and Level 3 inputs to determine fair value are based on a variety of factors and assumptions. Accordingly, certain fair values may not represent actual values of the Company’s financial instruments that could have been realized as of any balance sheet dates presented or that will be recognized in the future, and do not include expenses that could be incurred in an actual settlement.
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, accounts receivable, note receivable, prepaid, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, contract liability, deposits, related party and third-party notes payables approximate fair value due to their relatively short maturities. Equity-method investment is recorded at cost, which approximates its fair value since the consideration transferred includes cash and a non-monetary transaction, in the form of the Company’s common stock, which was valued based on a combination of a market and asset approach.
Cost Capitalization
The cost of buildings and improvements includes the purchase price of the property, legal fees, and other acquisition costs. Costs directly related to planning, developing, initial leasing and constructing a property are capitalized and classified as Buildings in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Capitalized development costs include interest, property taxes, insurance, and other direct project costs incurred during the period of development.
A variety of costs are incurred in the acquisition, development and leasing of properties. After determination is made to capitalize a cost, it is allocated to the specific component of a project that is benefited. Determination of when a development project is substantially complete, and capitalization must cease, involves a degree of judgment. Our capitalization policy on development properties is guided by ASC 835-20 Interest – Capitalization of Interest and ASC 970 Real Estate - General. The costs of land and buildings under development include specifically identifiable costs. The capitalized costs include pre-construction costs essential to the development of the property, development costs, construction costs, interest costs, real estate taxes, salaries and related costs and other costs incurred during the period of development. We consider a construction project as substantially completed and held available for occupancy or sale upon the receipt of certificates of occupancy, but no later than one year from cessation of major construction activity. We cease capitalization on the portion (1) substantially completed and (2) occupied or held available for occupancy, and we capitalize only those costs associated with the portion under construction.

Land Held for Sale
The Company considers properties to be assets held for sale when (1) management commits to a plan to sell the property; (2) the property is available for immediate sale in its present condition and (3) the property is actively being marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable given our estimate of current market value. Upon designation of a property as an asset held for sale, we record the property’s value at the lower of its carrying value or its estimated net realizable value.
Land and Buildings
Land and buildings 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. 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
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. The guidance sets forth a five-step revenue recognition model which replaces the prior revenue recognition guidance in its entirety and is intended to eliminate numerous industry-specific pieces of revenue recognition guidance that have historically existed in U.S. GAAP. The underlying principle of the standard is that a business or other organization will recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects what it expects to receive in exchange for the goods or services. The standard also requires more detailed disclosures and provides additional guidance for transactions that were not addressed completely in the prior accounting guidance.
The Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps:
● | identification of the agreement, or agreements, with a buyer and/or investor; | |
● | identification of the performance obligations in the agreement for the sale of plots including delivering title to the property being acquired from ILA; | |
● | determination of the transaction price; | |
● | allocation of the transaction price to the plots purchased when issued with equity or warrants to purchase equity in the Company; and | |
● | recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation such as delivering title to plots purchased. |
Revenue is measured based on considerations specified in the agreements with our customers. A contract exists when it becomes a legally enforceable agreement with a customer. The contract is based on either the acceptance of standard terms and conditions as stated in our agreement of plot sales or the execution of terms and conditions contracts with third parties and investors. These contracts define each party’s rights, payment terms and other contractual terms and conditions of the sale. Consideration was historically paid prior to transfer of title as stated above and in future land sales, the Company plans to transfer title to buyers at the time consideration has been transferred if the acquisition of the property has been completed by the Company. The Company applies judgment in determining the customer’s ability and intention to pay; however, collection risk is mitigated through collecting payment in advance or through escrow arrangements. A performance obligation is a promise in a contract or agreement to transfer a distinct product or item to the customer, which for us is transfer of title to our buyers. Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the property that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the property is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. We have concluded the sale of property and delivering title is accounted for as a single performance obligation. Currently, upon execution of each contract, the Company has not developed sufficient controls and procedures to provide reasonable assurance that collection of the consideration, which the Company is entitled to, is probable. As such, the Company has not yet recognized any revenue from the seller’s financed contracts for deed in the three months ended September 30, 2021. The Company currently retains title of the underlying asset under each contract until the customer pays the consideration in full. Management is currently evaluating the retention of title as merely a protective right, which would potentially not disallow revenue recognition for the full consideration to which the Company is entitled.
10 |
The transaction price of a contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when or as the customer receives the benefit of the performance obligation. The transaction price is determined based on the consideration to which we will expect to receive in exchange for transferring title to the customer.
The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation in a contract by transferring control over property to a customer when land title is legally transferred by the Company. The Company’s principal activities in the real estate development industry which it generates its revenues is the sale of developed and undeveloped land.
Advertising costs
The Company expenses advertising costs when incurred. Advertising costs incurred amounted to $1,276,200 and $431,682 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, and 2020, respectively. Such increase is mainly attributable to advisory services in connection with potential customer acquisition, product development, marketing and promotion of the Company real estate properties and corporate strategy.
Debt issuance costs and debt discounts
Debt issuance costs and debt discounts are being amortized over the lives of the related financings on a basis that approximates the effective interest method. Costs and discounts are presented as a reduction of the related debt in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Stock-Based Compensation
The fair value of stock options is estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, based on weighted average assumptions. Expected volatility is based on historical volatility of our common stock. The Company has elected to use the simplified method described in the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 14C to estimate the expected term of employee stock options. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The value of restricted stock awards is determined using the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur. Compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award.
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. Management 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.
11 |
The Company computes loss per share in accordance with ASC 260 – Earnings per Share. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the consolidated statements of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net 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 notes payable using the if-converted method. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is antidilutive. During periods of net loss, all common stock equivalents are excluded from the diluted EPS calculation because they are antidilutive. A beneficial conversion feature that arises from a contingent conversion feature has no accounting impact until the contingency occurs. Management evaluated whether it is necessary to recognize a beneficial conversion feature by comparing the adjusted effective conversion price of the convertible preferred stock with the commitment-date fair value of the entity’s common stock. Management determined that a beneficial conversion feature existed, and recognized the beneficial conversion feature, creating a discount on the convertible preferred stock instrument. This discount was amortized in accordance with ASC 470-20-35-7. The amortization of the discount created by a beneficial conversion feature, which is recognized as a result of the resolution of a contingency, is treated as a dividend that reduced net income in arriving at income available to common stockholders.

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 September 30, 2021.
Investments – Equity Method
The Company accounts for equity method investments at cost, adjusted for the Company’s share of the investee’s earnings or losses, which are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company periodically reviews the investments for other than temporary declines in fair value below cost and more frequently when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. As of September 30, 2021, Management believes the carrying value of its equity method investments were recoverable in all material respects.
Collaborative Arrangements
The Company analyzes its collaboration arrangements to assess whether such arrangements involve joint operating activities performed by parties that are both active participants in the activities and exposed to significant risks and rewards dependent on the commercial success of such activities and therefore within the scope of ASC Topic 808, Collaborative Arrangements (ASC 808). This assessment is performed throughout the life of the arrangement based on changes in the responsibilities of all parties in the arrangement. For collaboration arrangements within the scope of ASC 808 that contain multiple elements, the Company first determines which elements of the collaboration are deemed to be within the scope of ASC 808 and which elements of the collaboration are more reflective of a vendor-customer relationship and therefore within the scope of ASC 606. For elements of collaboration arrangements that are accounted for pursuant to ASC 808, an appropriate recognition method is determined and applied consistently, generally by analogy to ASC 606. Amounts that are owed to collaboration partners are recognized as an offset to collaboration revenue as such amounts are incurred by the collaboration partner. For those elements of the arrangement that are accounted for pursuant to ASC 606, the Company applies the five-step model described under ASC 606.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
As an emerging growth company (“EGC”), the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act (“JOBS Act”) allows the Company to delay adoption of new or revised accounting pronouncements applicable to public companies until such pronouncements are applicable to private companies. The Company has elected to use this extended transition period under the JOBS Act until such time, as the Company is no longer considered to be an EGC, which is expected to be on December 31, 2021.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 (Topic 842), Leases, and issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance or implementation guidance including ASU 2017-13, 2018-01, 2018-10, 2018-11, 2018-20 and 2019-01 (collectively, including ASU 2016-02, “ASC 842”), which supersedes the guidance in topic ASC 840, Leases. The new standard requires lessees to classify leases as either finance or operating based on whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification will determine whether related expenses are recognized based on the effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. For any leases with a term of greater than 12 months, ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to recognize a lease liability for the obligation to make the lease payments arising from a lease, and a right-of-use asset for the right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. An election can be made to account for leases with a term of 12 months or less similar to existing guidance for operating leases under ASC 840.
12 |
The new standard will also require new disclosures, including qualitative and quantitative requirements, providing additional information about the amounts recorded in the financial statements. For public companies, the new standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The accounting standard is effective for non-public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. We have elected this extension and the effective date for us to adopt this standard will be for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The Company does not anticipate the new standard will have an impact since the Company does not currently has leases.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which requires the Company to measure and recognize expected credit losses for financial assets held and not accounted for at fair value through net income. ASU 2016-13 is intended to replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in current US GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates to improve the quality of information available to financial statement users about expected credit losses on financial instruments and other commitments to extend credit held by a reporting entity at each reporting date.
In April 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-04, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments (“ASU 2019-04”). This amendment clarifies the guidance in ASU 2016-13. The guidance in ASU 2016-13 was further clarified by ASU No. 2019-11, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments (“ASU 2019-11”) issued in November 2019. ASU 2019-11 provides transition relief such as permitting entities an accounting policy election regarding existing TDRs, among other things. In May 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-05, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Targeted Transition Relief (“ASU 2019-05”). The purpose of this amendment is to provide entities that have certain instruments within the scope of Subtopic 326-20, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses-Measured at Amortized Cost, with an option to irrevocably elect the fair value option in Subtopic 825-10, Financial Instruments-Overall, on an instrument-by-instrument basis. Election of this option is intended to increase comparability of financial statement information and reduce costs for certain entities to comply with ASU 2016-13. For public entities, ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years.
NOTE 3 – ASSET PURCHASE AND TITLE TRANSFER
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 80 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 plots to be used for the purpose of development “vacant plots”. The purpose of the transaction was as an investment in real property to be assigned to the Company subsequent to acquisition. On March 18, 2019, Mr. Sunstein assigned the deed of the property to the Company. The total of the consideration plus acquisition costs assets of $1,122,050 was allocated to land and building in the following amounts: $271,225 – Land; $850,826 – Building. The land is an indefinite long-lived asset that was assessed for impairment as a grouped asset with the building on a periodic basis.
On September 30, 2019, the Company entered into a contract for deed agreement “Agreement” with IntegraGreen whose principal is also a creditor. Under the agreement the Company agreed to the sale of 20 acres of vacant land and associated improvements located at the Emerald Grove property in Hemet, California for a total purchase price of $630,000, $63,000 was paid upon execution and the balance is payable in a balloon payment on October 1, 2026, with interest only payments of $3,780 due on the 1st of each month beginning April 1, 2020. During the duration of the Agreement the Company retains title and is allowed to encumber the property with a mortgage at its discretion, however IntegraGreen has the right to use the property. The Company may also evict IntegraGreen from the premises in the case of default under the agreement. Due to the nature of the Agreement, the Company’s management deemed that there was an embedded lease feature in the agreement in accordance with ASC 842. As a result, the initial payment of $63,000 was classified as a deposit. Upon an event of default in which case the payment is non-refundable, and the Company no longer has any obligation to provide access to the land. The interest payments will be recognized monthly as lease income. As of September 30, 2021, Integragreen has made payment of an aggregate amount of $212,980 against the purchase price. Such amount is recorded under deposits in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2021.

Oasis Park Title Transfer
On June 18, 2019, Baja Residents Club SA de CV (“BRC”), a related party with common ownership and control by our CEO, Robert Valdes, transferred title to the Company for the Oasis Park property which was part of a previously held land project consisting of 497 acres to be acquired and developed into Oasis Park resort near San Felipe, Baja. ILA recorded the property held for sale on its balance sheet in the amount of $670,000 and accordingly reduced the value as plots are sold. As of September 30, 2021, the Company reported a balance for assets held for sale of $646,434.
The Company transferred title to individual plots of land to the investors since the Company received this approval of change in transfer of title to ILA. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company entered into a contract to sell three individual plots of land for total consideration of $128,000, of which $12,000 was collected and $108,000 will be payable in thirty-six (36) consecutive monthly installments at 0% interest. The Company recorded the cash collected under deposits in the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2021. Such amount has not yet been recorded as revenue as of September 30, 2021(refer to Note 2).

Additionally, in November and December 2019, $250,000 was paid to our CEO, Roberto Valdes, $150,000 for constructing two model Villas at our planned Plaza Bajamar development. The Company has not yet taken title to this property, which is currently owned by Valdeland, S.A. de C.V., an entity controlled by Roberto Valdes. The Company intends to purchase the land from this entity and has paid $100,000 to Roberto Valdes as a down payment for this purchase. The $150,000 is the total construction cost budget that is intended to pay the construction contractor.
During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company issued the 150,000 reported under prepaid and other current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2021. The Company funded the construction by an additional $225,647 during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The construction contractor is also an entity controlled by Roberto Valdes. Construction commenced during the year ended in 2020, but has not yet been completed. shares of the Company’s common stock for total amount of $
The balance of construction in process for Plaza Bajamar and Valle Divino totaled $578,647 and $353,000 as of September 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, respectively. Management believes that the transfer of title to the land will be approved and transferred by the end of our fourth fiscal quarter of 2021

To avoid paying multiple title transfer fees and the extended time for each recording, the seller for both parcels, Valdeland, S.A. de C.V., an entity controlled by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, is in the process of creating a master bank trust. This will provide the Company through its Mexican’s subsidiary, International Land Alliance, S.A. de C.V., the rights, and interest to each property, including buildings and improvements. As demonstrated from the Company’s Oasis Park Resort, this will also potentially allow the Company to record revenue from its Valle Divino and Plaza Bajamar projects, as sales are made, and individual trusts are established for each buyer, pending further review of Mexican trust law. The Company expects to have this trust established by the end of our fourth fiscal quarter. As of September 30, 2021, the Company received approximately $157,000 from plot sales, which are currently reported as contract liability in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet until individual trusts are established and title transferred to the buyer. |
The Company broke ground on the Valle Divino development in July 2020 and completed its first stage of construction in January 2021 and started reservations of residential lots. The Company has a dedicated partner for solar-plus-storage power solutions at its properties, CleanSpark, Inc., which serves as the Company’s exclusive partner for the installation of solar solutions across its portfolio, including the model homes at Plaza Bajamar. The Company commenced construction of a model home, three casitas and a clubhouse for wine tasting.
■ | The Company partnered with Clean Spark, Inc. to successfully deploy a microgrid on the Company’s model home at Plaza Bajamar, and established plan to outfit all units at the property, as well all units at Valle Divino with solar microgrid installations. |
■ | Resumed construction and service work at Oasis Park Resort for Phase I of the project. |
■ | Reopened the Company’s newly renovated event center at its Emerald Grove Estates property in Southern California. The Company entered into a contract to sell a vacant 20-acre parcel of the property for approximately $630,000. The property includes the main parcel of land with existing structures along with three additional parcels of land which are vacant plots. The Company has also been opportunistic with the use of land at the property, as we have ramped up commercial agriculture operations that currently consists of 10,000 outdoor plants. |
■ | Continued our research and marketing efforts to identify potential home buyers in the United States, Canada, Europe, and Asia. Through the formation of a partnership with a similar development company in the Baja California Norte Region of Mexico, we have been able to leverage additional resources with the use of their established and proven marketing plan which can help us with sophisticated execution and the desired results for residential plot sales and development. |
■ | Continued the development of our interactive website for visitors to view condominium and villa options and allow customization. |
20 |
■ | Title of the Oasis Park Resort in San Felipe was assumed during 2019. As progress continues on the development of the Oasis Park Resort, we are expecting the transfer of title on the Villas del Enologo in Rancho Tecate, Valle Divino in Ensenada, Baja California and Plaza Bajamar in Ensenada, Baja California during the Company fourth fiscal quarter of 2021, as we continue to follow the necessary steps to complete this legal process. |
■ | Continued efforts to secure financing and strengthen balance sheet by closing a $2.0 million financing with accredited institutional investors and paid off a $500,000 bridge loan in full. |
■ | Completed the refinancing of our existing first and second mortgage loans on the 80 acres of land and existing structure of our Emerald Grove property for aggregate principal amount of $1,787,000, which provided a net funding of approximately $387,000. |

Revenues
Our total revenue reported for the three months ended September 30, 2021, was $8,340, a decrease of approximately $5,700 or 41% from $14,076 for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The change, which is not deemed material is a result of rental income activities that the Company has not engaged in during the three months ended September 30, 2021.
Cost of Revenues
Our total cost of revenues was $0 for the three months ended September 30, 2021, and 2020. The Company does not record any cost of revenue since the revenue is only made up of rental income and not plot sales.

Operating Expenses
Operating expenses decreased to $557,822 for the three months ended September 30, 2021, from to $615,469 for the three months ended September 30, 2020. The detail by major category is reflected in the table below.

General and administrative | 496,822 | 600,609 | ||||||
Total Operating Expenses | $ | 557,822 | $ | 615,469 |
Sales and marketing costs increased by approximately $46,000, to $61,000 in the three months ended September 30, 2021, from $14,860 in the three months ended September 30, 2020. Such increase is directly related additional expenditures in consulting and real estate sales marketing agreements to drive traffic and interest into the various projects of the Company.
General and administrative costs decreased by approximately $104,000 in the three months ended September 30, 2021, primarily due to a decrease in share-based compensation expense by approximately $386,000, offset by an increase in investor relations expenses by approximately $124,000 and a non-recurring gain for approximately $150,000 in the three months ended September 30, 2020.
Other income (expense)
Other expense increased by approximately $15,000, to $92,575 in the three months ended September 30, 2021, from $77,577 in the three months ended September 30, 2020. Such increase is related to an increase in interest expense by approximately $148,802, directly attributable to the increase in the promissory notes, offset by an increase of approximately 32,000 from the Company’s equity-method investment, and $100,000 from settlement of debt.
Net Loss
We finished the three months ended September 30, 2021, with a net loss of $642,057, as compared to a net loss of $678,970 for the three months ended September 30, 2020. Such increase in the Company’s net loss is primarily the result of increased sales and marketing and increased interest expense from the Company’s promissory notes, offset by a decrease in general and administrative costs.

Operating Expenses
Operating expenses increased to $3,193,267 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, from $1,756,836 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The detail by major category is reflected in the table below.

General and administrative | 1,917,067 | 1,325,154 | ||||||
Total Operating Expenses | $ | 3,193,267 | $ | 1,756,836 |
Sales and marketing costs increased by $844,518 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, primarily due to the fair value of options issued pursuant to a consulting and real estate sales agreement, which were granted in the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
General and administrative costs increased by $591,913 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, primarily due to an increase in share-based compensation for consulting services and investor relations fees.
Net Loss
We finished the nine months ended September 30, 2021, with a net loss of $3,607,370, as compared to a net loss of $1,988,630 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Such increase in the Company’s net loss is primarily the result of increased sales and marketing expenses from the issuance of stock-based compensation under consulting agreement, increased general and administrative costs, specifically stock-based payments from consulting services and investor relations fees.
The factors that will most significantly affect future operating results will be:
● | The acquisition of land with plots for sale; | |
● | The sale price of future plots, compared to the sale price of plots in other resorts in Mexico; | |
● | The cost to construct a home on the plots to be transferred, and the quality of construction; | |
● | The quality of our amenities; | |
● | The global economy and the demand for vacation homes; and | |
● | The on-going effects of COVID-19 on the US and global economy and specifically in our target market. |
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 $701,988 and $13,171 as of September 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, respectively. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, we recorded a loss of $3,607,370 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Our working capital deficit as of September 30, 2021, was $1,365,051 and net cash flows used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, were $703,349. These factors and our ability to raise additional capital to accomplish our objectives, raises substantial 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, increased construction activity and the development of current and future projects which include our current business operations.
We anticipate generating revenues over the next twelve months, as we continue to market the sale of plots held for sale at our Oasis Park Resort and we obtain title of our other projects, which we expect will occur in the Company’s fourth fiscal quarter of the year ended December 31, 2021. Consequently, we are dependent on the proceeds from future debt or equity investments to sustain our operations and implement our business plan.
23 |
Operating Activities
Net cash flows used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, was $703,349 which resulted primarily due to the loss of $3,607,370 offset by non-cash share-based compensation of $2,001,021, non-cash amortization of debt discount of 284,616, an increase in accounts payable of $287,596, increase in prepaid and other current assets by $157,212 and increase in deposits by $137,980.
Investing Activities
Net cash flows used in investing activities was $441,259 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The funds were used for the development of the commercial agriculture at Emerald Grove resort for $100,000, cash consideration of $100,000 for the acquisition of 25% of RCV accounted for as its equity-method investment and approximately $241,000 for construction at the Company’s projects.
Financing Activities
Net cash flows provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, was $1,833,425 primarily from cash proceeds from issuance of promissory notes for aggregate amount of $1,052,686, net funding from refinancing of approximately $368,736, sale of common stocks of $1,804,750, exercise of warrants and options for $100,000, and offset by repayment on a promissory note of $1,492,747.
As a result of these activities, we experienced an increase in cash and cash equivalents of $688,817 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
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.

Critical Accounting Polices
There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies, with the exception of the Company’s new equity-method investment, as compared to the critical accounting policies and significant judgments and estimates disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the SEC on April 2, 2021. The accounting of the Company’s equity-method investment requires judgement by management to determine whether these is significant influence or control over the Company’s investee. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over these policies.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Not required under Regulation S-K for “smaller reporting companies.”
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
The Company’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer (the Certifying Officers) are responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures for the Company. An evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) was carried out by us under the supervision and with the participation of our Certifying Officers. Based upon that evaluation, our Certifying Officers have concluded that as of September 30, 2021, our disclosure controls and procedures, that are designed to ensure (i) that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and (ii) that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Certifying Officers, in order to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, were not effective.
As of September 30, 2021, based on evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. We will be required to expend time and resources hiring and engaging additional staff and outside consultants with the appropriate experience to remedy the weaknesses described below. We cannot assure you that management will be successful in locating and retaining appropriate candidates or that newly engaged staff or outside consultants will be successful in remedying material weaknesses thus far identified or identifying material weaknesses in the future.
A material weakness is a control deficiency (within the meaning of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) Auditing Standard No. 2) or combination of control deficiencies that result in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. Management has identified the following two material weaknesses which have caused management to conclude that as of September 30, 2021, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level:
■ | inadequate internal controls relating to the authorization, recognition, capture, and review of transactions, facts, circumstances, and events that could have a material impact on the Company’s financial reporting process. | |
■ | inadequate controls over maintenance of records. |
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
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.
