NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
September 30, 2020
Note 1. Nature of Business
Throughout this report, the terms “our,” “we,” “us,” and the “Company” refer to LGBTQ Loyalty Holdings, Inc. (formerly LifeApps Brands Inc.), including its subsidiaries.
On January 25, 2019, we acquired LGBT Loyalty LLC, a New York limited liability company, with the goal of creating the first LGBTQ Loyalty Preference Index ETF (the “Index ETF”) to provide the LGBTQ community with the power to influence the allocation of capital within a financial Index ETF based upon LGBTQ consumer preferences. The Index ETF is intended to link the growing economic influence of the LGBTQ community and their allies with many of the top Fortune 500 companies that support and implement diversity, inclusion and equality policies within their organizations. The incorporation of diversity and inclusion in a company’s recruitment and human resource policies is becoming a key concern to investors as part of their growing focus on Environment, Social and Corporate Governance (“ESG”) allocations. Our data and analytics unequivocally reinforce that corporations that have embraced diversity and inclusion policies within their corporate culture perform at a higher level financially than their peers. This includes advancing a more invigorated workforce that attracts and retains the best talent. Innovation and agility have been identified as great benefits of diversity, and there is an increasing awareness of what has come to be known as ‘the power of difference’.
On October 30, 2019, through our wholly-owned subsidiary Loyalty Preference Index, Inc. (“LPI”) and our strategically aligned partnerships with crowd sourced data and analytic providers, we launched the LGBTQ100 ESG Index which integrates LGBTQ community survey data into the methodology for a benchmark listing of the nation’s highest financially performing large-cap publicly listed corporations that our respondents believe are most committed to advancing equality. LPI is the index provider for the LGBTQ + ESG100 ETF; LGBTQ Loyalty was the Sponsor for the prospectus that was filed by the licensed Fund Adviser ProcureAM, and was approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in early January 2020. The LGBTQ + ESG100 ETF (the “Fund”) seeks to track the investment results (before fees and expenses) of the LGBTQ100 ESG Index. The Fund earns management fees based on assets under management (“AUM”) and is expected to launch in the first quarter of 2021 on the NASDAQ.
On June 24, 2020, we formed two wholly-owned subsidiaries, Crowdex Equity Inc. and Advancing Equality Financial Network, Inc.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Going Concern
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”), which contemplates our continuation as a going concern. We have incurred losses to date of $10,891,347 and have negative working capital of $3,669,204 as of September 30, 2020. To date we have funded our operations through advances from a related party, issuance of convertible debt, and the sale of our common stock. We intend to raise additional funding through third party equity or debt financing. There is no certainty that funding will be available as needed. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue operating as a going concern. Our ability to continue our operations as a going concern, realize the carrying value of our assets, and discharge our liabilities in the normal course of business is dependent upon our ability to raise capital sufficient to fund our commitments and ongoing losses, and ultimately generate profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
Basis of Presentation
We have prepared the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial reporting. These condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and, in our opinion, include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals necessary for a fair presentation of our balance sheets, operating results, and cash flows for the periods presented. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for fiscal year 2020. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and accompanying notes.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of LGBTQ Loyalty Holdings, Inc. and our wholly owned subsidiaries, LGBTQ Loyalty, LLC, LifeApps Inc., Sports One Group Inc., Loyalty Preference Index, Inc, Crowdex Equity Inc. and Advancing Equality Financial Network, Inc. All material inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the balance sheets and revenues and expenses during the years reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Reclassifications
The Company has reclassified certain previously reported amounts in its consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, prior year amounts were reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. The reclassifications did not change the previously reported results of operations.

Fair Value Measurements
ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), provides a comprehensive framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures which are required about fair value measurements. Specifically, ASC 820 sets forth a definition of fair value and establishes a hierarchy prioritizing the inputs to valuation techniques, giving the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable value inputs. ASC 820 defines the hierarchy as follows:
Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 1 are highly liquid and actively traded instruments with quoted prices, such as equities listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, but are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities in Level 2 are typically either comparable to actively traded securities or contracts, or priced with models using highly observable inputs.
Level 3 – Significant inputs to pricing that are unobservable as of the reporting date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 3 are those with inputs requiring significant management judgment or estimation, such as complex and subjective models and forecasts used to determine the fair value of financial transmission rights and derivative liabilities.
Our financial instruments consist of cash, other current assets, accounts payables, accruals, and notes payable. The carrying values of these instruments approximate fair value because of the short-term maturities. The fair value of the Company’s convertible debentures and promissory notes approximates their carrying values as the underlying imputed interest rates approximates the estimated current market rate for similar instruments. The derivative is measured as a Level 3 instrument due to the various inputs which requires significant management judgment. Refer to Note 6 for detail.
The following table is a summary of our financial instruments measured at fair value:

Earnings per Share
We calculate earnings per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260 Earnings Per Share, which requires a dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the fiscal year. Diluted earnings per share represent basic earnings per share adjusted to include the potentially dilutive effect of outstanding stock options and warrants. The diluted earnings per share were not calculated because we recorded net losses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, and the outstanding stock options and warrants are anti-dilutive. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the following number of potentially dilutive shares have been excluded from diluted net loss since such inclusion would be anti-dilutive:
Nine Months Ended | ||||||||

Note 6. Derivative Liability
We evaluated the terms of the conversion features of the debentures in accordance with ASC Topic No. 815 - 40, Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Stock, and determined they are indexed to the Company’s common stock and that the conversion features meet the definition of a liability. Therefore, we bifurcated the conversion feature and accounted for it as a separate derivative liability.
To determine the fair value of our embedded derivatives, management evaluates assumptions regarding the probability of certain future events. Other factors used to determine fair value include our period end stock price, historical stock volatility, risk free interest rate and derivative term. The fair value recorded for the derivative liability varies from period to period. This variability may result in the actual derivative liability for a period either above or below the estimates recorded on our consolidated financial statements, resulting in significant fluctuations in other income (expense) because of the corresponding non-cash gain or loss recorded.
We value the conversion feature at origination of the notes using the Black-Scholes valuation model. We value the derivative liability at the end of each accounting period, and upon conversion of the underlying note or warrant, with the difference in value recognized as gain or loss included in other income (expense) in our consolidated statements of operations.
The original debentures had conversion features that resulted in derivative liabilities. We valued the conversion features at each origination date with the following assumptions, on a weighted-average basis:
Nine Months | ||||
Ended | ||||
September 30, 2020 | ||||
Risk-free interest rate | 0.39 | % | ||

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the entire value of the principal of the debentures were assigned to the derivative liability and recognized as a debt discount on the convertible debentures. The debt discount is recorded as reduction (contra-liability) to the debentures and are being amortized over the initial term. The balance of $440,182 was recognized as origination interest on the derivative liability and expensed on origination. In accordance with the Company’s sequencing policy, shares issuable pursuant to the convertible debentures would be settled subsequent to the Company’s Series B preferred stock.

Business Overview
On January 25, 2019, we acquired LGBT Loyalty LLC, a New York limited liability company, with the goal of creating the first LGBTQ Loyalty Preference Index ETF (the “Index ETF”) to provide the LGBTQ community with the power to influence the allocation of capital within a financial Index ETF based upon LGBTQ consumer preferences. The Index ETF is intended to link the growing economic influence of the LGBTQ community and their allies with many of the top Fortune 500 companies that support and implement diversity, inclusion and equality policies within their organizations. The incorporation of diversity and inclusion in a company’s recruitment and human resource policies is becoming a key concern to investors as part of their growing focus on ESG allocations. Our data and analytics unequivocally reinforce that corporations that have embraced diversity and inclusion policies within their corporate culture perform at a higher level financially than their peers. This includes advancing a more invigorated workforce that attracts and retains the best talent. Innovation and agility have been identified as great benefits of diversity, and there is an increasing awareness of what has come to be known as ‘the power of difference’.
On October 30, 2019, through our wholly-owned subsidiary Loyalty Preference Index, Inc. (“LPI”) and our strategically aligned partnerships with crowd sourced data and analytic providers, we launched the LGBTQ100 ESG Index which integrates LGBTQ community survey data into the methodology for a benchmark listing of the nation’s highest financially performing large-cap publicly listed corporations that our respondents believe are most committed to advancing equality. LPI is the index provider for the LGBTQ + ESG100 ETF; LGBTQ Loyalty was the Sponsor for the prospectus that was filed by the highly regarded licensed Fund Adviser ProcureAM, a wholly owned subsidiary of Procure Holdings, LLC., which is through our platform service agreement (“PSA”), and was approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in early January 2020. The LGBTQ + ESG100 ETF (the “Fund”) seeks to track the investment results (before fees and expenses) of the LGBTQ100 ESG Index. The Fund earns management fees based on assets under management (“AUM”) and is expected to launch in Q1 - 2021 on the NASDAQ.
LGBTQ Loyalty has generated an abundance of media coverage for our premier LGBTQ Index product with the launch and listing on NYSE of the LGBTQ100 ESG Index. The exclusive media launch with Bloomberg Media was instrumental in propelling the LGBTQ100 brand to center stage overnight in the financial sector. In addition, LGBTQ Loyalty was featured at the Inside ETFs Summit in early 2020 with Board Members, Barney Frank and Billy Bean speaking on the “The Power of Inclusion & Equality” for investors. Our media strategy objective is to lay the groundwork for additional high-profile positioning of the brand as we work to achieve the desired increased financial media coverage and growth in AUM valuation for our company and shareholders.
On June 24, 2020, we formed two wholly-owned subsidiaries, Crowdex Equity Inc. (“Crowdex”) and Advancing Equality Financial Network, Inc. (“AEF”). AEF focuses on bringing to market and sales distribution a suite of thematic-ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) Index financial products promoting diversity and inclusion (D&I) practices of leading corporations. This includes the first financial index branded as LGBTQ100 ESG Index (NYSE Index Ticker: LGBTQ100) representing 100 large-cap U.S. entities that are deemed the top LGBTQ Equality corporations. LGBTQ100 ESG Index was listed on the NYSE in Q4 of 2019. Crowdex is currently in the process of finalizing a service provider relationship, which will be announced before the end of Q3 2020.

Our Products
Our mission is to build a sustainable and well recognized brand focused on unlocking the growing purchasing power of the LGTBQ community globally by offering a robust LGBTQ Index and core ETF portfolio that attracts key institutional investors and corporations.
At the nucleus of our LGBTQ Loyalty Preference Index is our partner-driven Crowd Preference Index Methodology (CPIM) which disrupts ESG investing. This is achieved through an elevated screening process of financial performance data and ESG standards and practices, whereby LGBTQ community data on diversity and inclusion compliance directly impacts corporate financial results and transparently identifies and recognizes high performance companies who have consistently outperformed the S&P 500 index or equivalent sector standards and norms.
We intend to extend the LGBTQ Loyalty Index brand with future plans to develop indices with a focus on the ‘Social’ component of ESG utilizing our proprietary financial slogan of “Advancing Equality” within other gender, minority interest groups.
Revenue
The Company focus in 2019 was to create and launch our first of many financial Index products through an equality driven thematic ESG screened and alpha performance benchmark. The Company achieved this through its LGBTQ100 ESG Index listing and performance on the NYSE starting on October 30, 2019. In 2020 our collective efforts and focus is to monetize and scale our model by capturing recurring revenue streams through our current financial Index product. Our goal is to accelerate our revenue pursuits through our partnership and licensed relationships to achieve a break-even point when we have secured AUM benchmarked against the LGBTQ100 Index in excess of $50,000,000.
We intend to introduce a new key partnered revenue source derived from Direct Index Licensing Fees generated by financial institutions and asset management companies for creating a product (e.g. , Index Funds, Structured Financial Products, Turnkey Asset Management Providers) based on or linked to the LGBTQ100 index. This includes fees to use the LGBTQ100 index to track the performance of funds or as benchmarks for actively managed portfolios. We plan to capture Data Subscriptions which could provide recurring subscription revenue from our LGBTQ Index. This includes ongoing and historical data and information generated by our wholly owned division Loyalty Preference Index, Inc., and through our strategic partnerships for new potential financial equality-driven Indices.
New initiatives in 2020 include a plan to create ancillary revenue streams to complement and support this unique platform for the top 100 Equality driven Corporations in America represented in the LGBTQ100 Index. We believe our index will reward and elevate the status of those corporations that have adopted diversity and inclusion best practices, cared for their employees and positively impacted LGBTQ communities. Expert LGBTQ economists have repeatedly stressed the value of the LGBTQ brand loyalty to corporations. We consider the companies that best capture the spending trends and loyalty of the LGBTQ consumer will be better positioned for financial growth and success. Given the opportunity to link to the power and status generated between the LGBTQ community, these companies and their own workforce, we will launch a Partner Loyalty Program which includes benefits afforded to defined sponsorship tiers. The LGBTQ Loyalty Sponsorship is designed to attract the significant marketing dollars Fortune 500 companies are allocating to D&I programs with an opportunity to purchase LGBTQ Loyalty Sponsorship packages, including participation and brand exposure at planned conferences and events. Companies will be offered the opportunity to purchase LGBTQ Loyalty Sponsorship packages starting in Q1-2021.
Our initial investments in creating a high performing product with a well-recognized brand have been established. As we begin to move into planning for the post-COVID-19 world, we will now shift our efforts to cultivate new revenue stream opportunities while building AUM as we construct a profitable business platform.
We have achieved no revenues to date from our LGBTQ related operations and have been focused on building our product and achieving performance results and media branding over the course of the past twelve months. There are no assurances that can be given that we will achieve revenues or profitability in the future.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Going Concern
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP, which contemplates our continuation as a going concern. We have incurred losses to date of $10,891,347 and have negative working capital of $3,669,204 as of September 30, 2020. To date we have funded our operations through advances from a related party, issuance of convertible debt, and the sale of our common stock. We intend to raise additional funding through third party equity or debt financing. There is no certainty that funding will be available as needed. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue operating as a going concern. Our ability to continue our operations as a going concern, realize the carrying value of our assets, and discharge our liabilities in the normal course of business is dependent upon our ability to raise capital sufficient to fund our commitments and ongoing losses, and ultimately generate profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the balance sheets and revenues and expenses during the years reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Derivative Financial Instruments:
The Company has financial instruments that are considered derivatives or contain embedded features subject to derivative accounting. Embedded derivatives are valued separately from the host instrument and are recognized as derivative liabilities in the Company’s balance sheet. The Company measures these instruments at their estimated fair value and recognizes changes in their estimated fair value in results of operations during the period of change. The Company has a sequencing policy regarding share settlement wherein instruments with a fixed conversion price or floor would be settled first, and interest payable in shares settle next. Thereafter, share settlement order is based on instrument issuance date – earlier dated instruments settling before later dated. The sequencing policy also considers contingently issuable additional shares, such as those issuable upon a stock split, to have an issuance date to coincide with the event giving rise to the additional shares. The policy includes all shares issuable pursuant to debenture and preferred stock instruments as well as shares issuable under service and employment contracts and interest on short term loans.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Historically, we have been financed through advances from related parties, issuances of convertible debt, and the sale of our common and preferred stock. Our existing sources of liquidity will not be sufficient for us to implement our business plans. There are no assurances that we will be able to raise additional capital as and when needed. As of September 30, 2020, we had no cash on hand. Based on our current planned expenditures, we will require approximately $2.5 million over the next 12 months. Our existing sources of liquidity may not be sufficient for us to implement our continuing business plan. Our need for future capital will be dependent upon the speed at which we expand our product offerings. There are no assurances that we will be able raise additional capital as and when needed.
As of September 30, 2020, we had a working capital deficit of $3,669,204 and $3,682,790 as compared to a working capital deficit of $2,947,521 at December 31, 2019.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, operations used cash of $564,803 and $846,796, respectively.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, net cash used in investing activities was $31,000 and $49,500, respectively, primarily attributable to capitalized costs pertaining to the development of the LGBTQ100 ESG Index and ETF website.
During 2020, we received an aggregate of $637,000 in proceeds from the issuance of convertible debentures and $96,175 in proceeds from short-term promissory note agreements. We also received $93,343 from the exercise of warrants. We received $125,000 proceeds from the issuance of Series B convertible preferred stock , $700,000 in proceeds from the issuance of the Pride convertible debenture and $51,569 from the exercise of warrants during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.
We will continue to seek out additional capital in the form of debt or equity under the most favorable terms we can find.
The Company is currently, and has for some time, been in financial distress. It has no cash resources and current assets and has no ongoing source of revenue. Management is continuing to address numerous aspects of the Company’s operations and obligations, including, without limitation, debt obligations, financing requirements, and regulatory compliance, and has taken steps to continue to raise new debt and equity capital to fund the Company’s business activities.
The Company is continuing its efforts to raise additional capital in order to be able to pay its liabilities and fund its business activities on a going forward basis and regularly evaluates various measures to satisfy the Company’s liquidity needs. Though the Company actively pursues opportunities to finance its operations through external sources of debt and equity financing, there can be no assurance that such financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and are not required to provide the information required under this item.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) (the Company’s principal financial and accounting officer), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are not effective due to a lack of audit committee and segregation of duties caused by limited personnel to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
23 |
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive Officer) and Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial Officer), does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include, but are not limited to, the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
Management believes that the material weakness set forth above did not have an effect on our financial results.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended September 30, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
