This annual report contains forward-looking statements. These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may”, “should”, “expects”, “plans”, “anticipates”, “believes”, “estimates”, “predicts”, “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, including the risks in the section entitled “Risk Factors” that may cause our or our industry’s actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.

 

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Except as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.

PART I

 

Item 1. Business

 

Our financial statements are stated in United States Dollars (US$) and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

 

In this annual report, unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are expressed in United States dollars and all references to “common shares” refer to the common shares in our common stock.

 

General Overview

 

As used in this current report and unless otherwise indicated, the terms “we”, “us” and “our” mean nDivision Inc., unless otherwise indicated.

 

nDivision Inc. (“nDivision” or the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the state of Texas. nDivision’s registered office is located at 7301 N. State Highway 161, Suite 100, Irving, TX, 75039. The Company provides managed IT services and project-based professional services in the information technology industry, selling its services directly to customers and through global service providers (GSP). The Company operates in most states of the United States of America.

 

On February 13, 2018, Go2Green Landscaping, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Registrant”) executed an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with nDivision Inc, and NDI Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Registrant (“Acquisition”) whereby Acquisition was merged with and into nDivision (the “Merger”) in consideration for Twenty Seven Million Five Hundred Thousand (27,500,000) newly-issued shares of Common Stock of the Company (the “Merger Shares”).

 

As a result of the Merger, nDivision became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Registrant and following the consummation of the Merger and giving effect to the issuance of the Merger Shares and the retirement of 10,000,000 shares of the then 14,400,000 shares issued and outstanding of the Registrant by its principal stockholders, the stockholders of nDivision beneficially owned approximately Seventy percent (70%) of the issued and outstanding Common Stock of the Registrant.

 

For accounting purposes, nDivision was deemed to be the accounting acquirer in the transaction and, consequently, the transaction was treated as a recapitalization of the Company. Accordingly, nDivision’s assets, liabilities and results of operations are the historical consolidated financial statements of the Company and the Company’s assets, liabilities and results of operations are consolidated with nDivision effective as of the date of the Merger. No step-up in basis or intangible assets or goodwill was recorded in this transaction.

 

On February 26, 2018, the Company executed an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Gamwell Technologies Inc., a Texas corporation (“Gamwell”). Gamwell is engaged in the business of providing managed services, VOIP telephone, security consulting and professional services to its customers.

 

nDivision Inc. uses the ticker symbol:  NDVN.

Table of Contents

 

As an emerging growth company, we are exempt from Section 404(b) of Sarbanes Oxley. Section 404(a) requires issuers to publish information in their annual reports concerning the scope and adequacy of the internal control structure and procedures for financial reporting. This statement shall also assess the effectiveness of such internal controls and procedures. Section 404(b) requires that the registered accounting firm shall, in the same report, attest to and report on the assessment and the effectiveness of the internal control structure and procedures for financial reporting.

 

As an emerging growth company, we are also exempt from Section 14A (a) and (b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 which require the shareholder approval of executive compensation and golden parachutes. These exemptions are also available to us as a Smaller Reporting Company.

 

Our Current Business

 

nDivision supports organizations in their journey towards digital transformation using advanced technologies across the datacenter, cloud, network and end user help desk. Progressive Chief Information Officers (“CIOs”) want to reduce the proportion of their IT budget that is spent on KTLO (Keeping The Lights On) and pivot towards initiatives that make the organization more effective and more efficient; however, IT Operations is still a critical business function and cannot be compromised. In the past, service providers have promised lower costs and improved service levels through labor arbitrage, achieved by utilizing offshore resources. Unfortunately, this has rarely lived up to expectations, and has generally resulted in poor service levels and constant additional costs for ‘out of scope’ work. nDivision takes a radically different approach. It hires some of the best talent in the industry, harnesses technologies like automation, artificial intelligence, machine learning and cognitive learning to dramatically reduce costs and drive up service levels. nDivision’s business model is driven by state-of-the-art technologies, low overheads through strategies that include remote working, a flat organizational structure and highly motivated & talented U.S. based employees. The net effect is a very competitive value proposition and delighted customers. nDivision’s services are industry segment agnostic and its customers range from a small and midsize business (“SMB”), through midmarket and large enterprise (the largest customer is a Fortune 500 account). It provides remote support for customer IT operations in 32 countries and across six continents. One of the top ten global technology distributor ($60bn+ revenues) recently entered into an agreement with nDivision to resell nDivision's services through its approximately 50,000 resellers in the U.S.

 

Services and Solutions

 

Autonomic Services

 

SINGLE PANE-OF-GLASS IT OPERATIONS

nDivision uses an integrated IT Operations platform, not a collection of tools. It is made up of over 20 different modules, all of which were developed from the ground up (i.e. no acquired IP) and are fully ITIL compliant. Organizations can choose to implement some or all of the modules, for the same all-inclusive price. Every function is available through a single pane-of-glass, providing visibility and control of incidents, remediation, assets, change management, problem management, knowledge management, SOP’s, etc.

 

INTEGRATED CMDB

An accurate Configuration Management Database (CMDB) is the heart of ITSM (IT Service Management). Very few major organizations have an accurate CMDB, and many of those who are trying to get there are using a spreadsheet. nDivision’s platform has an integrated CMDB that is controlled by the change management module, making it very difficult to add, remove or change Configuration Items without maintaining the integrity of the CMDB. Further, the CMDB within nDivision’s platform can store correlations and dependencies, which improves incident management, and is invaluable when planning major changes such as datacenter and/or cloud migrations.

 

AUTOMATIONS

There are a number of tools available that allow automations to be scripted, however, nDivision's platform provides a framework for automations spanning multiple areas such as infrastructure, operating systems, hypervisors, services, databases and major applications. These automations run across solutions from all the major vendors and can either run as standard or using a WYSIWYG ‘drag and drop’ approach, can be quickly customized to match an organization’s SOP’s. In fact, if an asset is IP-addressable, can accept keyboard-based commands and generate outputs, it can be part of an automation.

 

SMART IT SUPPORT

This is nDivision’s packaged 24/7 ‘all-in’ remote IT support service for Small Businesses (it is typically aimed at customers with between 10 and 100 IT users) and spans IT infrastructure (servers, storage and networking), and end user help desk support including devices (laptops, desktops, tablets and mobile phones).  SMART IT Support has three levels of service: Essential, Advanced and Premium.  Advanced includes the same service options as Essential but includes additional security-related and Microsoft cloud services, whereas Premium includes more advanced security-related and Microsoft cloud services.  Each of the three service options is priced per user, per month.  The quantities of infrastructure equipment and user devices included in the service is calculated as a ratio of the number of users under contract, with additional items charged for on a per item per month basis.  SMART IT Support provides Small Businesses with comprehensive IT support at a competitive price-point, backed by industry-leading services levels.  SMART IT Support’s transparent and published pricing makes it easy for Small Businesses to budget for their IT Support, and customers enjoy the benefits of nDivision’s autonomic services, staffed 24/7 network operations center and deep technical resources.

AUTONOMIC MANAGED SERVICE (AMS)

nDivision’s AMS makes extensive use of automation which often resolves incidents without any human involvement; this is referred to as Autonomic Resolution. In other cases, the automation will attempt to fix the problem, but if it can't, it gathers all the relevant information at the time that an incident occurs and automatically escalates the ticket to a human engineer; this is referred to as Autonomic Assistance. Sometimes, the platform will notify a human engineer that it has resolved a particular incident multiple times in a given time period and will automatically escalate the incident to Problem Management. There are also some situations where an incident cannot be addressed autonomically and a human will have to investigate the incident and carry out remediation. Where an organization does not want to use its human labor for tasks that cannot be carried out autonomically, nDivision’s AMS provides an ITIL Level 1 Autonomic Managed Service (L1 AMS) and an ITIL Level 2 Autonomic Managed Service (L2 AMS).

 

END USER HELP DESK

nDivision understands that every minute that an end user is unable to access an IT service or technology costs the organization money. If that user is a knowledge-worker, C-level executive or other key resource, the costs can be significantly higher. Furthermore, equipment costs may only represent 20% of the Total Cost of Ownership, with support costs representing the other 80%. Therefore, optimizing access to technology is a critical area of cost-saving and improved productivity.

 

Many organizations find that providing a multi-tiered Help Desk for its end users can be challenging. Often, Tier 2 resources cannot be spared to address complex end user issues, which leads to protracted user response and resolution times. Also, when resources are limited, providing a high level of support outside of business hours and over weekends can be difficult to do effectively.

 

Our Proactive service provides a single point of contact for ticketing and remediation through email, web or by phone, and is charged for based on the number of devices. We install an agent on each device that allows us to quickly provide remote control support and keep patches up to date. The service includes anti-virus & anti-malware protection (or we can leverage the customer’s) and software distribution for operating systems and applications. Bare metal backups and recovery is an optional service. We leverage manufacturer warranties or a spares program, as needed. All support staff for our Proactive service are based in the U.S.

 

Our real-time Executive Dashboard provides data on the quality of service (each interaction can be rated by the user), call center statistics (abandonment, talk time, hold time, etc.), inventory data (asset type, operating system, location, etc.) and patching data (installed, missing approved and failed). The Speed of Service metrics includes service level achievement, speed by priority, speed by time and speed by support team member. The Resolved Tickets metrics includes count by team, percentage closed by team, mean time to respond and mean time to resolve. Custom views can also be created as a separate services engagement.

 

Sales and Marketing

 

We market and sell our services directly through our professional staff, senior management and direct sales personnel operating out of our business development offices and from home-based locations. We also partner with a number of global service providers (GSPs) that either resell our services across the U.S. or recommend our services to their targeted customers.

 

Customers

 

The services we provide are distributed among a number of customers, however a loss of a significant customer or a few significant customers in a short period of time could have a significant impact on our business and could materially reduce revenues. However, the services we provide directly to our customers are multi-year contracts with automatic renewals for at least a year, unless at least ninety (90) days’ notice is served to end the contract at the end of the current term. This provides time for us to adjust our resources accordingly and minimize the impact to cash flow. The services that we provide to our larger customers are typically critical to their operations and a termination of our services and therefore have a high renewal rate. The volume of work performed for specific customers is likely to vary from month to month, but these are typically not material variances.

Competition

 

The markets for our services are highly competitive, characterized by a large number of participants and subject to rapid change. Competitors may include systems integration firms, contract programming companies, application software companies, cloud computing service providers, traditional consulting firms, professional services groups of computer equipment companies, infrastructure management and outsourcing companies and boutique digital companies. Our direct competitors in large accounts include, among others, Accenture, Atos, Capgemini, Deloitte Digital, DXC Technology, Unisys, HCL Technologies, IBM Global Services, Infosys Technologies, NTT Data, Tata Consultancy Services, Unisys and Wipro. In addition, we compete with numerous smaller local companies in the various geographic markets in which we operate.

 

The principal competitive factors affecting the markets for our services include the provider’s reputation and experience, vision and strategic advisory ability, digital services capabilities, performance and reliability, responsiveness to customer needs, financial stability, corporate governance and competitive pricing of services. Accordingly, we rely on the following to compete effectively:

 

 

·

investments in state-of-the-art technologies;

 

·

our recruiting, training and retention model;

 

·

our 24/7 remote global service delivery model;

 

·

an entrepreneurial culture and approach to our work;

 

·

strategic partnerships with global service providers;

 

·

customer referrals;

 

·

investment in process improvement and knowledge capture;

 

·

financial stability and good corporate governance;

 

·

continued focus on responsiveness to customer needs, quality of services and competitive prices; and

 

·

continual service improvement, project management capabilities and technical expertise.

 

Intellectual Property

 

We provide value to our customers based, in part, on our proprietary business processes, methodologies, reusable knowledge capital and other intellectual property (“IP”) assets. We recognize the importance of IP and its ability to differentiate us from our competitors. We seek IP protection for some of our innovations and rely on a combination of IP laws, confidentiality procedures and contractual provisions, to protect our IP and our brand. We have registered, and applied for the registration of, U.S. and international trademarks, service marks, domain names and copyrights. While our proprietary IP rights are important to our success, we believe our business as a whole is not materially dependent on any particular IP right, or any particular group of patents, trademarks, copyrights or licenses.

 

Employees

 

We had 45 employees at the end of 2021. We are not party to any collective bargaining agreements.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should consider carefully the risks, uncertainties and other factors described below, in addition to the other information set forth in this Form 10-K, before making an investment decision. Any of these risks, uncertainties and other factors could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or prospects. In that case, the market price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment in our common stock. See also “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

 

Our business depends on the availability of a large number of highly qualified IT professionals, sales and management personnel, and our ability to recruit and retain these individuals.

 

We actively compete with many other IT service providers for qualified personnel, including professional IT staff, salespeople, and management. The availability of qualified personnel may affect our future ability to provide services and meet the requirements of our clients. An inability to attract resources at the costs anticipated for customer contracts may adversely impact our revenue and operating results in the future.

 

We have a history of significant cash needs and this may increase in the future.

 

As of December 31, 2021, we had approximately $521,000 in cash and negative working capital of approximately $1,524,235. We have reported losses of approximately $4,065,900 and $1,500,000 for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. We do not believe that our current recurring revenue, existing revenue opportunities, balances of cash, and factoring opportunities will be sufficient to finance our anticipated capital and operating requirements for the next twelve months from the date of filing this annual report. The Company will require significant additional debt and equity financing to support the anticipated cash requirements to run normal operations until sales have increased significantly to support the operations and without this support, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue to operate. 

 

Our independent registered public accounting firm has issued an opinion on our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K that states that the consolidated financial statements were prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern. Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable for a going concern, which assume that we will realize our assets and discharge our liabilities in the ordinary course of business.

 

The IT services industry is highly competitive and fragmented, which means that our clients have a number of choices for providers of IT services and we may not be able to compete effectively.

 

The market for our services is highly competitive. The market is fragmented, and no company holds a dominant position. Consequently, our competition for client requirements and experienced personnel varies significantly by geographic area and by the type of service provided. Some of our competitors are larger and have greater technical, financial, and marketing resources and greater name recognition than we have in the markets we collectively serve. In addition, clients may elect to increase their internal IT systems resources to satisfy their end user, systems and network support needs. Finally, small and medium business customers typically have multiple smaller service providers within their local geography that are willing to provide onsite support as needed and there is no guarantee that our remote services will be appealing to these types of customers.

 

We may unintentionally infringe on the proprietary rights of others.

 

Many lawsuits currently are being brought in the software industry alleging violation of intellectual property rights. Although we do not believe that we are infringing on any patent rights, patent holders may claim that we are doing so. Any such claim would likely be time-consuming and expensive to defend, particularly if we are unsuccessful, and could prevent us from selling our products or services. In addition, we may also be forced to enter into costly and burdensome royalty and licensing agreements.

Table of Contents

 

We may be unable to achieve the financial or other goals intended at the time of any potential acquisition.

 

Our growth strategy includes the potential acquisition of business assets or companies to increase our recurring revenues and add scale to our business operations. We may not be successful in identifying or funding acquisitions that are consistent with our strategy or in completing such acquisitions. Acquisitions of business assets or companies are subject to numerous potential risks, including the following:

 

·

our inability to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to any potential acquisition, or if we are able to enter into such agreement, our inability to consummate the potential acquisition;

 

 

·

our inability to achieve the anticipated financial and other benefits of a specific acquisition;

 

 

·

our inability to obtain the necessary financing, on favorable terms or at all, to finance any or all of our potential acquisitions;

 

 

·

risks of entering geographical markets in which we have no or limited direct prior experience and where competitors in such markets have stronger market positions;

 

 

·

our inability to retain key personnel from an acquired company, if necessary;

 

 

·

difficulty in maintaining controls, procedures and policies during the transition and integration process;

 

 

·

our inability to integrate the target company’s technologies, products or businesses with ours;

 

 

·

diversion of our management’s attention from other business concerns; and

 

 

·

failure of our due diligence processes to identify significant issues, including issues with respect to future cash flows, and other legal and financial contingencies.

 

If we are unable to manage these risks effectively as part of any acquisition, our business and prospects could be adversely affected. Depending upon the nature and structure of future acquisitions, our stockholders may not have the ability to vote on, or consent to, the consummation of any such acquisition.

 

Concentration of ownership among our existing executive officers, directors and their affiliates, and others who beneficially own at least 10% of our outstanding common stock, may prevent new investors from influencing significant corporate decisions.

 

Our executive officers, directors and their affiliates, together with others who own at least 10% of our outstanding common stock, beneficially own or control more than 50% of our common stock. Accordingly, these persons, acting individually or as a group, will have substantial influence over the outcome of a corporate action requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors, any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets or any other significant corporate transaction. These stockholders may also exert influence in delaying or preventing a change in control of our company, even if such change in control would benefit our other stockholders. In addition, the significant concentration of stock ownership may adversely affect the market value of our common stock due to investors’ perception that conflicts of interest may exist or arise.

 

Our Common Stock may be affected by trading volume and price fluctuations, which could adversely impact the value of our Common Stock.

 

The stock market in general has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of companies with securities traded in those markets. Broad market and industry factors may seriously affect the market price of companies’ stock, including ours, regardless of actual operating performance. Market prices for public companies whose principle revenues are derived from the licensing of intellectual property have been particularly volatile. We believe that various factors may cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate, perhaps substantially, and the factors include, among others, the following:

 

 
9

Table of Contents

 

·

quarterly variations in our operating results compared to market expectations;

 

·

our raising or failure to raise additional capital;

 

·

the risk of our inability to continue to meet listing requirements of the OTC-QB;

 

·

developments in relationships with strategic partners;

 

·

our competitors’ technological innovations;

 

·

our failure to meet or exceed securities analysts’ expectations of our financial results;

 

·

a change in financial estimates or securities analysts’ recommendations;

 

·

changes in management’s or securities analysts’ estimates of our financial performance;

 

·

changes in market valuations of similar companies;

 

·

regulatory developments and court decisions that negatively impact the ability of patent owners to protect their assets;

 

·

actual or expected sales of our common stock by our stockholders, including any of our significant stockholders.

 

Our common stock may be considered a “penny stock.”

 

The SEC has adopted regulations, which generally define “penny stock” to be an equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to specific exemptions. The market price of our common stock is less than $5.00 per share and therefore may be a “penny stock.” Brokers and dealers effecting transactions in “penny stock” must disclose certain information concerning the transaction, obtain a written agreement from the purchaser and determine that the purchaser is reasonably suitable to purchase the securities. These rules may restrict the ability of brokers or dealers to sell our common stock and may affect your ability to sell shares of our common stock in the future.

 

Our stockholders may experience significant dilution if future equity offerings are used to fund operations or acquire complementary businesses.

 

Our authorized capital stock consists of One Hundred Eighty million (180,000,000) shares of common stock and Twenty million (20,000,000) shares of blank check preferred stock. If we engage in capital raising activities in the future as we did in the 2021 and previously, including issuances of common stock or securities that are convertible into, or exercisable for, our common stock, to fund the growth of our business, our stockholders could experience significant dilution. In addition, securities issued in connection with future financing activities or potential acquisitions may have rights and preferences senior to the rights and preferences of our common stock. We have adopted an equity incentive plan pursuant to which equity awards may be granted to eligible employees (including our executive officers), directors and consultants, if our Board of Directors determines that it is in the best interest of the Company and our stockholders to do so. The issuance of shares of our common stock upon the exercise of any such equity awards may result in dilution to our stockholders and adversely affect our earnings. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had 9,226,544 options and 1,372,752 warrants issued and exercisable.

Sales of our currently issued and outstanding stock may become freely tradable pursuant to Rule 144 and may dilute the market for your shares and have a depressive effect on the price of the shares of our common stock.

 

A number of the outstanding shares of common stock are “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) (“Rule 144”). As restricted shares, these shares may be resold only pursuant to an effective registration statement or under the requirements of Rule 144 or other applicable exemptions from registration under the Securities Act and as required under applicable state securities laws. Rule 144 provides in essence that a non-affiliate who has held restricted securities for a period of at least six months may sell their shares of common stock. Under Rule 144, affiliates who have held restricted securities for a period of at least six months may, under certain conditions, sell every three months, in brokerage transactions, a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of 1% of a company’s outstanding shares of common stock or the average weekly trading volume during the four calendar weeks prior to the sale (the four calendar week rule does not apply to companies quoted on the OTC Markets). A sale under Rule 144 or under any other exemption from the Securities Act, if available, or pursuant to subsequent registrations of our shares of common stock, may have a depressive effect upon the price of our shares of common stock in any active market that may develop.

 

A decline in the price of our common stock could affect our ability to raise working capital and adversely impact our ability to continue operations.

 

A prolonged decline in the price of our common stock could result in a reduction in the liquidity of our common stock and a reduction in our ability to raise capital. A decline in the price of our common stock could be especially detrimental to our liquidity and our operations. Such reductions may force us to reallocate funds from other planned uses and may have a significant negative effect on our business plan and operations, including our ability to develop new services and continue our current operations. If our common stock price declines, we can offer no assurance that we will be able to raise additional capital or generate funds from operations sufficient to meet our obligations. If we are unable to raise sufficient capital in the future, we may not be able to have the resources to continue our normal operations.

 

Our internal computer systems, or those of our development partners or other contractors or consultants, may fail or suffer security breaches, which could result in a material disruption of our product development programs.

 

Despite the implementation of security measures, our internal computer systems and those of our development partners, data management organizations and other contractors and consultants are vulnerable to damage from computer viruses, unauthorized access, natural disasters, terrorism, war and telecommunication and electrical failures. While we have not experienced any such system failure, accident or security breach to date, if such an event were to occur and cause interruptions in our operations, it could result in a material disruption of our programs. To the extent that any disruption or security breach results in a loss of or damage to our data or applications or other data or applications relating to our technology, or inappropriate disclosure of confidential or proprietary information, we could incur liabilities.

 

We rely on email and other messaging services in connection with our operations. We may be targeted by parties using fraudulent spoofing and phishing emails to misappropriate passwords, payment information or other personal information or to introduce viruses through Trojan horse programs or otherwise through our networks, computers, smartphones, tablets or other devices. Despite our efforts to mitigate the effectiveness of such malicious email campaigns through a variety of control and non-electronic checks, spoofing and phishing may damage our business and increase our costs. We do maintain a cyber insurance policy; however it may not be sufficient enough to cover all damages. Any of these events or circumstances could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results and could significantly impair our ability to successfully complete a potential strategic transaction on terms that are favorable to our stockholders, or at all.

 

We are increasingly dependent on information technology systems, infrastructure and data.

 

We are increasingly dependent upon information technology systems, infrastructure and data. Our computer systems may be vulnerable to service interruption or destruction, malicious intrusion and random attack. Security breaches pose a risk that sensitive data, including intellectual property, trade secrets or personal information may be exposed to unauthorized persons or to the public. Cyber-attacks are increasing in their frequency, sophistication and intensity, and have become increasingly difficult to detect. Cyber-attacks could include the deployment of harmful malware, denial-of service, social engineering and other means to affect service reliability and threaten data confidentiality, integrity and availability. Our key business partners face similar risks, and a security breach of their systems could adversely affect our security posture. While we continue to invest data protection and information technology, there can be no assurance that our efforts will prevent service interruptions, or identify breaches in our systems, that could adversely affect our business and operations and/or result in the loss of critical or sensitive information or the illegal transfer of funds to unknown persons, which could result in financial, legal, business or reputational harm. Any of these issues could significantly impair our ability to successfully complete a potential strategic transaction on terms that are favorable to our stockholders, or at all.

We depend on key management for the success of our business.

 

Our success is largely dependent on the skills, experience and efforts of our senior management team. The loss of the services of any of these key managers could materially harm our business, financial condition, future results and cash flow. We do not maintain “key person” life insurance policies on any of these employees. We may also not be able to locate or employ on acceptable terms qualified replacements for our senior management if their services were no longer available.

 

The requirements of being a public company may strain our resources and distract management.

 

As a result of filing the registration statement, we are subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”). These requirements are extensive. The Exchange Act requires that we file annual, quarterly and current reports with respect to our business and financial condition. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires that we maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting.

 

We may incur significant costs associated with our public company reporting requirements and costs associated with applicable corporate governance requirements. We expect all of these applicable rules and regulations to significantly increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more time consuming and costly. This may divert management’s attention from other business concerns, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We also expect that these applicable rules and regulations may make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified individuals to serve on our Board of Directors or as executive officers. We are currently evaluating and monitoring developments with respect to these rules, and we cannot predict or estimate the amount of additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs.

 

Ineffective internal controls could impact the Company’s business and operating results.

 

The Company’s internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements because of the inherent limitations of internal controls, including the possibility of human error, the circumvention or overriding of controls, poorly designed or ineffective controls, or fraud. Internal controls that are deemed to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to the preparation and fair presentation of the Company’s financial statements. If the Company fails to maintain the adequacy of its internal controls, including the failure to implement new or improve existing controls, or fails to properly execute or properly test these controls, the Company’s business and operating results could be negatively impacted and the Company could fail to meet its financial reporting obligations.

 

We have identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, and concluded that we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, management identified a material weakness over the inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives and lack of multiple levels of supervision and review—see Item 9A, “Controls and Procedures,” below.

Changing economic conditions and the effect of such changes on accounting estimates could have a material impact on our results of operations.

 

The Company has also made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of its assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare its consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC and other accounting rulemaking authorities. Such estimates primarily relate to the valuation of stock options for recording equity-based compensation expense, allowances for doubtful accounts receivable, valuation allowances for deferred tax assets, legal matters and other contingencies, as applicable. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ from these estimates. Changes in the economic climates in which the Company operates may affect these estimates and will be reflected in the Company’s financial statements in the event they occur. Such changes could result in a material impact on the Company’s results of operations.

 

If we issue shares of preferred stock, investments in common stock could be diluted or subordinated to the rights of the holders of preferred stock.

 

Our Board of Directors is authorized by our Certificate of Incorporation to establish classes or series of preferred stock and fix the designation, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each such class or series without any further vote or action by our stockholders. Any shares of preferred stock so issued could have priority over our common stock with respect to dividend or liquidation rights. Further, the issuance of shares of preferred stock, or the issuance of rights to purchase such shares, could be used to discourage an unsolicited acquisition proposal. For instance, the issuance of a series of preferred stock might impede a business combination by including class voting rights that would enable a holder to block such a transaction. In addition, under certain circumstances, the issuance of preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power of holders of our common stock. Although our Board of Directors is required to make any determination to issue preferred stock based on its judgment as to the best interests of our stockholders, our Board of Directors could act in a manner that would discourage an acquisition attempt or other transaction that some, or a majority, of our stockholders might believe to be in their best interests or in which such stockholders might receive a premium for their stock over the then-market price of such stock. Presently, our Board of Directors does not intend to seek stockholder approval prior to the issuance of currently authorized preferred stock, unless otherwise required by law or applicable stock exchange rules. Although we have no plans to issue any additional shares of preferred stock or to adopt any new series, preferences or other classification of preferred stock, any such action by our Board of Directors or issuance of preferred stock by us could dilute your investment in our common stock and warrants or subordinate your holdings to such shares of preferred stock.

 

Changing economic conditions and other effects of the such changes caused by the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

 

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) surfaced. The spread of COVID-19 around the world in 2020 has caused significant volatility in U.S. and international markets. There is significant uncertainty around the breadth and duration of business disruptions related to COVID-19, as well as its impact on the U.S. and international economies and, as such, as of August 2020, the Company has transitioned its operations to 100% work from home and there has been minimal impact to our internal operations from the transition. The Company is unable to determine if there will be a material future impact to its customers’ operations and ultimately an impact to the Company’s overall revenues.

From time to time, the Company may become involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of its operations in the normal course of business. The Company is not involved in any pending legal proceeding or litigation and, to the best of its knowledge, no governmental authority is contemplating any proceeding to which we are a party or to which any of its properties is subject, which would reasonably be likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Equity Compensation Plan Information

 

As of December 31, 2021, there were stock options outstanding under the Company’s 2018 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2018 Plan”). The plan granted additional incentives to select persons who can make, are making and continue to make substantial contributions to the growth and success of the Company, to attract and retain the employment and services of such persons and to encourage and reward such contributions by providing these individuals with an opportunity to acquire or increase stock ownership in the Company through either the grant of options or restructured stock. The 2018 Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee or such other committee as is appointed by the Board of Directors pursuant to the 2018 Plan (the “Committee”). The Committee has full authority to administer and interpret the provisions of the 2018 Plan including, but not limited to, the authority to make all determinations with regard to the terms and conditions of an award made under the 2018 Plan. The maximum number of shares that may be granted under the 2018 Plan is 18,000,000. This number is subject to adjustment to reflect changes in the capital structure or organization of the Company. All stock options outstanding as of December 31, 2021 were non-qualified stock options, had exercise prices equal to the market price on the date of grant and had expiration dates 10 years from the date of grant.

Revenues increased by $216,100 or 4% for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 compared with the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.  The change in revenue is due to the following increases:  new customers of approximately $387,400, professional services of approximately $174,500 and additional services of approximately $25,000, these increases were partially offset by terminated customers revenue of approximately $370,800 of revenue.

 

Cost of revenue increased by $1,231,423 or 30% compared with the prior fiscal year. The gross margin declined to 13.1%, a decreased by approximately 57.3% compared to the prior year gross margin of 30.7%.   The decrease in gross profit was from lower high margin professional services.  In addition, there was additional labor added to cost of sales to increase services provided as standard managed services provided by the Company.  Management increased these services to improve customer satisfaction and, in an effort, to improve the Company’s ability to increase sales.   

  

Operating expenses increased by $1,658,601 or 52% compared with the prior fiscal year. There was an increase in compensation, commission expenses, marketing expenses, amortization of beneficial conversion feature expenses, stock compensation and professional service expenses, which was partially offset by decreases in travel, depreciation and rent expense.

The Company incurred a net loss of $4,065,910 and $1,498,926 for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Other income and expenses decreased by $106,940.  The net gain of other income and expenses was related to the PPP loan forgiveness of $716,982 and offset by interest expense of $717,760, an increase of interest expense of $607,950.  The increase in the net loss is primarily related to a decrease in the gross margin and an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses.

At December 31, 2021, the Company had cash of $521,039. The decrease in cash of $1,285,567 from the December 31, 2020, cash balance of $1,806,606 was related to the significant losses sustained during the year and the decrease of deferred revenue.

 

Net cash used in investing activities for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, was $21,994 with $64,719 being used for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. During the years ended December 31, 2021, and 2020, the Company repaid debt related to the acquisition and purchased equipment and software licenses.

 

Net cash flows provided by financing activities for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, was $1,785,296 compared to $1,559,554 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company received $1,190,000 proceeds from the issuance of convertible debt issuance of non-convertible debt of $515,500 and $213,606 of proceeds from a factoring agreement partially offset by repayments of finance lease obligations of $133,810. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company received proceeds of $1,050,000 from the issuance of convertible debt and proceeds received under the Payroll Protection Program of $710,500, offset by repayments of financed lease obligations of $200,946.

 

The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due.  Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months from the date of the issuance of these consolidated financial statements with existing cash on hand, cash flow from operations, short-term debt from the factoring of receivables, additional debt financings and additional equity financings. The Company must raise capital through additional debt and equity financings to fund the operations of the business, there is, however, no assurance that the Company will be able to raise any additional capital through any type of offering on terms acceptable to the Company, as existing cash on hand will not be sufficient to finance operations over the next twelve months.

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate these estimates, including those related to bad debts, intangible assets, and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of certain assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

We have identified below the accounting policies, related to what we believe are most critical to our business operations and are discussed throughout Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition or Plan of Operation where such policies affect our reported and expected financial results.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

For revenue recognition arrangements that we determine are within the scope of Topic ASC 606, the Company performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company applies the five-step model to arrangements that meet the definition of a contract under Topic 606, including when it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer. At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of Topic 606, the Company evaluates the goods or services promised within each contract related performance obligation and assesses whether each promised good or service is distinct. The Company recognizes as revenue, the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied.

 

The Company recognizes revenue upon completion of our performance obligations or expiration of the contractual time to use services such as professional service hours purchased in bulk for a given time period. Any early termination fees are recognized in the period the contract is terminated and the termination invoice is paid.

 

The Company has elected the following practical expedients in applying ASC 606:

 

Unsatisfied Performance Obligations - all performance obligations relate to contracts with a duration of less than one year, the Company has elected to apply the optional exemption provided in ASC 606 and therefore, is not required to disclose the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to performance obligations that are unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied at the end of the reporting period.

 

Contract Costs - all incremental customer contract acquisition costs are expensed as they are incurred as the amortization period of the asset that the Company otherwise would have recognized is one year or less in duration.

 

Sales Tax Exclusion from the Transaction Price - the Company excludes from the measurement of the transaction price all taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction and collected by the Company from the customer.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect. An allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded, as a charge to bad debt expense, where collection is considered to be doubtful due to credit issues. These allowances together reflect the Company’s estimate of potential losses inherent in accounts receivable balances, based on historical loss and known factors impacting its customers. Management has determined that there should be a $40,000 and $26,000 allowance required for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. The Company does not accrue interest on past due receivables.

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

 

The Company records an impairment of long-lived assets used in operations, other than goodwill, when events or circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired and the estimated undiscounted cash flows to be generated by those assets over their remaining lives are less than the carrying amount of those items. The net carrying value of assets not recoverable is reduced to fair value, which is typically calculated using the discounted cash flow method. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company recorded a $302,115 impairment related to the contracts purchased in February 2018 based on the expected negative cash flow from the business unit over the next 18-month period. The Company did not record any impairment during the year ended December 31, 2020.

 

Convertible Debt and Securities

 

The Company follows beneficial conversion feature guidance in ASC 470-20, which applies to convertible stock as well as convertible debt. A beneficial conversion feature is defined as a nondetachable conversion feature that is in the money at the commitment date. The beneficial conversion feature guidance requires recognition of the conversion option's in-the-money portion, the intrinsic value of the option, in equity, with an offsetting reduction to the carrying amount of the instrument. The resulting discount is amortized as interest over the life of the instrument, if a stated maturity date exists, or to the earliest conversion date, if there is no stated maturity date. If the earliest conversion date is immediately upon issuance, the expense must be recognized at inception. When there is a subsequent change to the conversion ratio based on a future occurrence, the new conversion price may trigger the recognition of an additional beneficial conversion feature on occurrence.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment”. The update simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Step 2 measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount. The new rules were effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2021. The Company determined that the adoption of this ASU had no impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326)”, authoritative guidance amending how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The guidance requires the application of a current expected credit loss model, which is a new impairment model based on expected losses. The new guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, “Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity”, which simplifies the guidance for certain convertible debt instruments by removing the separation models for convertible debt with a cash conversion feature or convertible instruments with a beneficial conversion feature. As a result, convertible debt instruments will be reported as a single liability instrument with no separate accounting for embedded conversion features. Additionally, ASU 2020-06 requires the application of the if-converted method for calculating diluted earnings per share and the treasury stock method will be no longer available. The provisions of ASU 2020-06 are applicable for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company expects the primary impacts of this new standard will be to increase the carrying value of its convertible debt and reduce its reported interest expense. In addition, the Company will be required to use the if-converted method for calculating diluted earnings per share. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

No other recent accounting pronouncements were issued by FASB and the SEC that are believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and

Stockholders of nDivision Inc.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of nDivision Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ (deficit) equity, and cash flows for each of the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Substantial Doubt about the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company’s accumulated deficit and operating losses raise a substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.  Management’s evaluation of the events and conditions and management’s plans regarding those matters are also described in Note 2.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.  Our opinion is not modified with respect to that matter.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

/s/ Friedman LLP 

  

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2018.

nDivision Inc.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2021 and 2020

 

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

nDivision Inc. (“nDivision” or the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the state of Nevada. nDivision’s registered office is located at located at 7301 N. State Highway 161, Suite 100, Irving, TX, 75039. The Company provides managed IT services and project-based professional services in the information technology industry, selling its services directly to customers and through global service providers (GSP). The Company operates in most states of the United States of America.

 

2. GOING CONCERN AND LIQUIDITY

 

The Company has, and is continuing to, experience significant losses and negative cash flows from operations. Management has secured new managed services contracts, implemented a new strategic sales strategy, focusing on large resellers in the industry to increase monthly recurring revenue to improve the overall profitability and cash flows of the Company.  The Company continues to explore additional options for short-term and long-term financing until these new strategies have fully developed and are generating the necessary cash flow.

  

During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company received proceeds from the issuance of convertible and non-convertible notes payable of approximately $1,705,500. The Company had negative working capital of $1,524,235 on December 31, 2021.

 

The Company has continued to increase the monthly recurring revenue during the year ended December 31, 2021, however the Company has increased resources to support the new implementations and increased business at an accelerated rate. This increase was compounded by a single contract which required significant resources above what was originally planned.  Due to the challenges with this contract, the Company has agreed to a discount of $90,000, which has been included in these financials statements as a reduction to sales and accounts receivable.

 

The Company has factored approximately $231,175 of its invoices and received approximately $213,606 advance on these factored receivables under the Company’s factoring credit facility agreement for the year ended December 31, 2021. The fees during the year related to this factoring agreement was approximately $10,600.  The Company receives 90% of the factored receivables for a fee of 2.4% of the factored invoice and has committed to a minimum balance of $150,000 of invoices factored for six months from the initial funding in November 2021. 

 

The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the near future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months from the date of the issuance of these consolidated financial statements with existing cash on hand, factoring of receivables, obtaining additional debt and/or the private placement of common stock. There is, however, no assurance that the Company will be able to raise any additional capital through any type of offering on terms acceptable to the Company, as existing cash on hand will be insufficient to finance operations over the next twelve months and at the same time pay back various convertible notes due during this same time period. Accordingly, the Company has concluded that substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least 12 months from the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) surfaced. The spread of COVID-19 around the world has caused significant volatility in U.S. and international markets. There is significant uncertainty around the breadth and duration of business disruptions related to COVID-19, as well as its impact on the U.S. and international economies and, as such, the Company has transitioned its operations to 100% work from home and there has been minimal impact to our internal operations from the transition. The Company is unable to determine if there will be a material future impact to its customers’ operations and ultimately an impact to the Company’s overall revenues.

 

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The consolidated financial statements and related disclosures have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The consolidated financial statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) of the United States.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and transactions of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing these consolidated financial statements. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

For revenue recognition arrangements that we determine are within the scope of Topic ASC 606, the Company performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. The Company applies the five-step model to arrangements that meet the definition of a contract under Topic 606, including when it is probable that the entity will collect the consideration it is entitled to in exchange for the goods or services it transfers to the customer. At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of Topic 606, the Company evaluates the goods or services promised within each contract related performance obligation and assesses whether each promised good or service is distinct. The Company recognizes as revenue, the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied.

 

The Company recognizes revenue upon completion of our performance obligations or expiration of the contractual time to use services such as professional service hours purchased in bulk for a given time period. Any early termination fees are recognized in the period the contract is terminated and the termination invoice is paid.

Table of Contents

 

The Company has elected the following practical expedients in applying ASC 606:

 

Unsatisfied Performance Obligations - all performance obligations relate to contracts with a duration of less than one year, the Company has elected to apply the optional exemption provided in ASC 606 and therefore, is not required to disclose the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to performance obligations that are unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied at the end of the reporting period.

 

Contract Costs - all incremental customer contract acquisition costs are expensed as they are incurred as the amortization period of the asset that the Company otherwise would have recognized is one year or less in duration.

 

Sales Tax Exclusion from the Transaction Price - the Company excludes from the measurement of the transaction price all taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction and collected by the Company from the customer.

 

Cash

 

For purposes of the consolidated financial statements, the Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

 

The Company’s cash balances are primarily maintained at a single bank. Balances are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation subject to certain limitations.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect. An allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded, as a charge to bad debt expense, where collection is considered to be doubtful due to credit issues. These allowances together reflect the Company’s estimate of potential losses inherent in accounts receivable balances, based on historical loss and known factors impacting its customers. Management has determined that a $40,000 and $26,000 allowance was required for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Company does not accrue interest on past due receivables.

 

Intangible Assets

 

Customer contracts acquired were recorded at their estimated fair value at the date of acquisition and are being amortized over their estimated useful life of five years using the straight-line method.

 

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

 

The Company records an impairment of long-lived assets used in operations, other than goodwill, when events or circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired and the estimated undiscounted cash flows to be generated by those assets over their remaining lives are less than the carrying amount of those items. The net carrying value of assets not recoverable is reduced to fair value, which is typically calculated using the discounted cash flow method. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company recorded a $302,115 impairment related to the contracts purchased in February 2018 based on the expected negative cash flow from the business unit over the next 18-month period. The Company did not record any impairment during the year ended December 31, 2020.

Paycheck Protection Note Payable

 

The Company received a loan from the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) established by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) in the amount of $710,500. The loan was subject to a note dated May 2, 2020, and subject to forgiveness to the extent proceeds of the loan are used for eligible expenditures such as payroll and other expenses described in the CARES Act. The Company applied for full forgiveness of this loan. As of May 15, 2021, the Small Business Administration (the “SBA”) confirmed the application for forgiveness has been approved and the PPP loan in the amount of $710,500 plus accrued interest of $6,482 has been forgiven.

 

Concentration of Risk

 

Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, are cash and accounts receivable. See Note 15 for significant customer concentration disclosure.

 

Cash is maintained with a major financial institution in the United States and may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits. Generally, these deposits may be redeemed upon demand, and, therefore, bear minimal risk.  At December 31, 2021 and 2020, deposits in excess of FDIC limits were $271,039 and $1,556,606, respectively.

 

Equipment and Software Licenses

 

Equipment and software licenses are stated at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of one to ten years.

 

Convertible Debt and Securities

 

The Company follows beneficial conversion feature guidance in ASC 470-20, which applies to convertible stock as well as convertible debt. A beneficial conversion feature is defined as a nondetachable conversion feature that is in the money at the commitment date. The beneficial conversion feature guidance requires recognition of the conversion option's in-the-money portion, the intrinsic value of the option, in equity, with an offsetting reduction to the carrying amount of the instrument. The resulting discount is amortized as interest over the life of the instrument, if a stated maturity date exists, or to the earliest conversion date, if there is no stated maturity date. If the earliest conversion date is immediately upon issuance, the expense must be recognized at inception. When there is a subsequent change to the conversion ratio based on a future occurrence, the new conversion price may trigger the recognition of an additional beneficial conversion feature on occurrence.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value on the grant date and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement or conversion of the instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

Earnings and Loss per Share

 

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per share is computed giving effect to all potentially dilutive common shares. Potentially dilutive common shares may consist of incremental shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants and the conversion of notes payable to common stock. In periods in which a net loss has been incurred, all potentially dilutive common shares are considered anti-dilutive and thus are excluded from the calculation. There were approximately 14,672,875 and 9,488,750 of common stock equivalents excluded for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively because their effect is anti-dilutive.

 

Marketing Costs

 

Marketing costs, which are expensed as incurred, totaled approximately $456,466 and $56,943 for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively and is included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

Compensation expense related to share-based transactions, including employee stock options, is measured in the financial statements based on a determination of the fair value. The grant date fair value is determined using the Black-Scholes-Merton (“Black-Scholes”) pricing model. For all stock options, the Company recognizes expense over the requisite service period on a straight-line basis (generally the vesting period of the equity grant). The Company’s option pricing model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected stock price volatility and expected term. Any changes in these highly subjective assumptions significantly impact stock-based compensation expense.

 

See Note 12 for the assumptions used to calculate the fair value of stock-based employee and non-employee compensation.

 

Leases

 

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at the inception of a contract. Operating lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets are included in right-of-use assets on the consolidated balance sheets. The current and long-term components of operating lease liabilities are included in the current portion of operating lease liabilities and operating lease liabilities, net of current portion, respectively on the consolidated balance sheets.

 

Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term. As most of the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of future payments. Certain leases may include options to extend or terminate the lease. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

Leases of assets where the Company has assumed substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are recognized at the lower of the fair value of the leased assets and the present value of the minimum lease payments. The interest element of the finance leases is accounted for as finance costs and expensed over the lease term using the effective interest rate method.

  

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, the Company has determined the deferred tax assets and liabilities on the basis of the differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities by using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

 
F-11

Table of Contents

 

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets to the extent that it believes that these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, and results of recent operations. If the Company determines that it would be able to realize our deferred tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, it would make an adjustment to the deferred tax asset valuation allowance, which would reduce the provision for income taxes.

 

The Company records uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC 740 on the basis of a two-step process in which (1) it determines whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on the basis of the technical merits of the position and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, it recognizes the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority.

 

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits on the income tax expense line in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. As of December 31, 2021, no accrued interest or penalties are included on the related tax liability line in the balance sheet.

 

4. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment”. The update simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Step 2 measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount. The new rules were effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2021. The Company determined that the adoption of this ASU had no impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326)”, authoritative guidance amending how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income. The guidance requires the application of a current expected credit loss model, which is a new impairment model based on expected losses. The new guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, “Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity”, which simplifies the guidance for certain convertible debt instruments by removing the separation models for convertible debt with a cash conversion feature or convertible instruments with a beneficial conversion feature. As a result, convertible debt instruments will be reported as a single liability instrument with no separate accounting for embedded conversion features. Additionally, ASU 2020-06 requires the application of the if-converted method for calculating diluted earnings per share and the treasury stock method will be no longer available. The provisions of ASU 2020-06 are applicable for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company expects the primary impacts of this new standard will be to increase the carrying value of its convertible debt and reduce its reported interest expense. In addition, the Company will be required to use the if-converted method for calculating diluted earnings per share. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

No other recent accounting pronouncements were issued by FASB and the SEC that are believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements.

8. FACTORING CREDIT FACILITY

 

The Company had agreements with a third party for factoring of specific accounts receivable. Under this arrangement, the Company had transferred the relevant receivables to the factor in exchange for cash and was prevented from selling or pledging the receivables. The agreement provided for an advanced rate of 90% with a fee of 1.9% to be charged on the gross face amount of the invoices purchased for 30 days, and an additional 0.06% charge for each additional day until the invoice(s) were paid. 

 

On October 22, 2021, the Company entered into a new one-year purchase and security agreement to factor its accounts receivable, replacing the previously signed factoring agreement. The agreement provides for an advanced rate of 90% with a fee of 2.4% to be charged on the gross face amount of the invoices purchased for 30 days. The Company has retained late payment and credit risk related to the factored receivables and therefore continues to recognize the factored receivables in their entirety on its balance sheet.

 

The balance of the accounts receivable amount factored, and the related factor payable is $213,606 as of December 31, 2021, and $0 at December 31, 2020, respectively. The Company has recognized $10,600 and $24,676 in interest expense related to these arrangements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, and 2020, respectively.

 

9. NOTE PAYABLE

 

On May 2, 2020, the Company entered into a PPP loan for $710,500 in connection with the CARES Act related to COVID-19.

 

Under the PPP of the CARES Act, up to the full principal amount of a loan and any accrued interest can be forgiven if the borrower uses all of the loan proceeds for forgivable purposes (payroll, benefits, lease/mortgage payments and/or utilities) required under the CARES Act and any rule, regulation, or guidance issued by the SBA pursuant to the CARES Act (collectively, the “Forgiveness Provisions”). The amount of forgiveness of the PPP loan depends on the borrower’s payroll costs over either an eight-week or twenty-four-week period beginning on the date of funding. Any processes or procedures established under the Forgiveness Provisions must be followed and any requirements of the Forgiveness Provisions must be fully satisfied to obtain such loan forgiveness. Pursuant to the provisions of the CARES Act, the first six monthly payments of principal and interest will be deferred. Interest will accrue during the deferment period. The borrower must pay principal and interest payments on the fifth day of each month beginning seven months from the date of the applicable promissory note.

 

On April 30, 2021, the Company submitted its PPP Loan Forgiveness Application to the SBA. On May 15, 2021, the SBA confirmed the application for forgiveness has been approved and that its PPP loan, in the amount of $710,500 plus accrued interest of $6,482 has been forgiven and included in other income on the consolidated statements of operations.

 

Aggregate interest expense on this loan at the time of forgiveness was approximately $6,482.

2021 Note (the 2021 Note)

 

On December 20, 2021 the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with AJB Capital Investments, LLC with respect to the sale and issuance of (i) a promissory note in the principal amount of $600,000; (ii) a common stock purchase warrant to purchase up to 500,000 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $0.40 per share; and (iii) a guaranteed commitment fee in the amount of $150,000 for six months and an additional $150,000 if the loan is extended an additional six months to be paid in stock or cash.  The Company received the aggregate cash proceeds of $515,500, net of $60,000 original issue discount, $12,000 for broker fees and $12,500 in legal fees. 

 

The Company issued 1,200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock as partial consideration for the commitment fee.  The stock price on December 20, 2021, was approximately $0.15 per common share and 1,000,000 or $150,000 was recorded as the six-month commitment fee and considered to be a derivative based on the Company’s guarantee of the stock value when AJB Capital Investments, LLC liquidates the stock.  The Company recorded a derivative liability of $82,500 and $82,500 as a debt discount at the issuance of the debt related to 1,000,000 of the shares of the Company’s common stock.  The Company recognized $27,600 as a reduction of the commitment fee accrual for the 200,000 shares issued of the Company’s common stock. The Company also recognized a gain on the change in derivative liability of $6,363 for the period ended December 31, 2021. 

 

Pursuant to the terms of the 2021 Note, the investor has the right, only following an event of default, to convert all amounts outstanding under the Note into the shares of Common Stock (the “Conversion Shares”). The initial conversion price, following and during an event of default, for the principal and interest of the 2021 Note equals the lesser of 90% (representing a 10% discount) multiplied by the lowest trading price (i) during the previous twenty (20) trading day period ending on the date of issuance of the Conversion Shares, or (ii) during the previous twenty (20) trading day period ending on date of conversion of the 2021 Note, subject to adjustment as provided in the 2021 Note.

 

The 2021 Note also contains certain negative covenants, including, among other things, prohibitions on incurrence of indebtedness, sales of assets, stock repurchases, and distributions.

 

10. CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

 

The Company entered into promissory notes (the “Notes”) with investors of the Company with a face value of $2,240,000 of which $200,000 is from a related party, with $1,190,000 raised during the year ended December 31, 2021, and $1,050,000 raised during the year ended December 31, 2020. The Notes had an initial beneficial conversion feature valued at $1,361,675, which is recorded as a discount. The total discount on the Notes will be amortized over the life of the Notes and recorded as interest expense. For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company amortized $447,381 of the discount to interest expense. The Notes have an interest rate of 8%. The principal and interest of the Notes are due in full beginning September 2022 through April 2023 or can be converted into the Company’s common stock at a purchase price of the lesser of $0.40 per common share at any time after issuance or a 25% discount of the common stock price of a debt or equity offering that occurs subsequent to the date of the closing of the offering that results in gross offering proceeds of at least $5,000,000.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2021, $450,000 of the Notes and $3,994 of accrued interest was converted into 1,134,984 shares of common stock and the related unamortized discount of $293,575 was netted against additional paid in capital and was all long-term debt at the conversion of the notes.

11. LEASE OBLIGATIONS

 

Finance Leases

 

The Company finances certain property and equipment using finance leases. These leases range from one to five years. The finance lease obligations represent the present value of the minimum lease payments, net of imputed interest. The finance lease obligations are secured by the underlying leased assets. Leases are payable in monthly installments ranging from $354 to $4,397 including interest, ranging from 6.99% to 12% per annum.

 

Future minimum lease payments, including principal and interest, under the finance leases for subsequent years are as follows:

Lease payments for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 aggregated approximately $133,806 and $194,478, respectively.

 

The finance lease obligations are secured by underlying leased assets with a net book value of approximately $406,358 and $509,050 as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

 

Operating Lease

 

The Company determines if a contract contains a lease at inception. US GAAP requires that the Company’s leases be evaluated and classified as operating or finance leases for financial reporting purposes. The classification evaluation begins at the commencement date and the lease term used in the evaluation includes the non-cancellable period for which the Company has the right to use the underlying asset, together with renewal option periods when the exercise of the renewal option is reasonably certain and failure to exercise such option will result in an economic penalty. All of the Company’s real estate leases are classified as operating leases.

 

 

 
F-16

Table of Contents

 

Most real estate leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that generally can extend the lease term for an additional four to five years. The exercise of lease renewal options is at the Company’s discretion. The Company evaluates renewal options at lease inception and on an ongoing basis and includes renewal options that it is reasonably certain to exercise in its expected lease terms when classifying leases and measuring lease liabilities. Lease agreements generally do not require material variable lease payments, residual value guarantees or restrictive covenants.

 

The Company’s leases generally do not provide an implicit rate, and therefore the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate when measuring operating lease liabilities. The incremental borrowing rate represents an estimate of the interest rate the Company would incur at lease commencement to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments on a collateralized basis over the term of a lease within a particular currency environment. The Company used incremental borrowing rates as of January 1, 2019 for operating leases that commenced prior to that date.

 

The Company’s weighted average remaining lease term and weighted average discount rate for operating leases as of December 31, 2021 are:

The 2018 Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee or such other committee as is appointed by the Board of Directors pursuant to the 2018 Plan (the “Committee”). The Committee has full authority to administer and interpret the provisions of the 2018 Plan including, but not limited to, the authority to make all determinations with regard to the terms and conditions of an award made under the 2018 Plan. The maximum number of shares that may be granted under the 2018 Plan is 18,000,000. This number is subject to adjustment to reflect changes in the capital structure or organization of the Company.

As of December 31, 2021, the Company had federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $10,693,683.

 

Future realization of the tax benefits of existing temporary differences and net operating loss carryforwards ultimately depends on the existence of sufficient taxable income within the carryforward period. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company performed an evaluation to determine whether a valuation allowance was needed. The Company considered all available evidence, both positive and negative, which included the results of operations for the current and preceding years. The Company also considered whether there was any currently available information about future years. Because long-term contracts are not a significant part of the Company’s business, future results cannot be reliably predicted by considering past trends or by extrapolating past results. Moreover, the Company’s earnings are strongly influenced by national economic conditions and have been volatile in the past. Considering these factors, the Company determined that it was not possible to reasonably quantify future taxable income. The Company determined that it is more likely than not that all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Accordingly, the Company maintained a full valuation allowance as of December 31, 2021 and 2020.

Table of Contents

 

The calculation of our tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax laws and regulations for both federal taxes and the many states in which we operate or do business in. ASC 740 states that a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, on the basis of the technical merits.

 

We record tax positions as liabilities in accordance with ASC 740 and adjust these liabilities when our judgement changes as a result of the evaluation of new information not previously available. Because of the complexity of some of these uncertainties, the ultimate resolution may result in a payment that is materially different from our current estimate of the recognized tax benefit liabilities. These differences will be reflected as increases or decreases to income tax expense in the period in which new information is available. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020 we have not recorded any uncertain tax positions in our financial statements.

 

We recognize interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits on the income tax expense line in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. As of December 31, 2021, and 2020, no accrued interest or penalties are included on the related tax liability line in the consolidated balance sheet.

 

The Company files tax returns as prescribed by the tax laws of the jurisdictions in which it operates. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by federal and state jurisdictions, where applicable. There are currently no pending tax examinations. The Company’s tax years are still open under statute from December 31, 2014, to the present. Earlier years may be examined to the extent that the net operating loss carryforwards from those earlier years are used in future periods. The resolution of tax matters is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

17. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

On February 25, 2022 the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with AJB Capital Investments, LLC with respect to the sale and issuance of (i) a promissory note in the principal amount of $600,000; (ii) a common stock purchase warrant to purchase up to 500,000 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $0.40 per share; and (iii) a guaranteed commitment fee in the amount of $150,000 for six months and an additional $150,000 if the loan is extended an additional six months to be paid in stock or cash.  The Company received the aggregate cash proceeds of $515,500, net of $60,000 original issue discount, $12,000 for broker fees and $12,500 in legal fees. 

  

The Company issued 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock as partial consideration for the six-month commitment fee.  Other terms are similar to the terms under the note signed on December 20, 2021.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial Officer) reviewed the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded as of the Evaluation Date, (i) that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that material information relating to the Company is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), and (ii) the Company’s controls and procedures have not been designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded as at the evaluation date that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due primarily to a material weakness in the segregation of duties in the Company’s internal controls.

 

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over the Company’s financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021.  In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013).   A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.  Our system of internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. This assessment included review of the documentation of controls, evaluation of the design effectiveness of controls, testing of the operating effectiveness of controls and a conclusion on this evaluation. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2021. The ineffectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was due to the following material weaknesses, which are indicative of many small companies with small staff:

 

 

(I)

inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; and

 

 

 

 

(ii)

lack of multiple levels of supervision and review.

 

We believe that the weaknesses identified above have not had any material effect on our financial results. We are currently reviewing our disclosure controls and procedures related to these material weaknesses and expect to implement changes in the current fiscal year, including identifying specific areas within our governance, accounting and financial reporting processes to add adequate resources to potentially mitigate these material weaknesses.

 

Our management will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures and our internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and is committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal controls over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

Management’s Remediation Plan

 

The weaknesses and their related risks are not uncommon in a company of our size because of the limitations in the size and number of staff. Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties has not always been possible and may not be economically feasible.

  

However, we plan to take steps to enhance and improve the design of our internal control over financial reporting. During the period covered by this annual report on Form 10-K, we have not been able to remediate the material weaknesses identified above. To remediate such weaknesses, we plan to implement the following changes in the current fiscal year as resources allow:

 

(i)

Appoint additional qualified personnel to address inadequate segregation of duties and implement modifications to our financial controls to address such inadequacies; and

 

(ii)

We will attempt to implement the remediation efforts set out herein by the end of the 2022 fiscal year. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within our Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.

 

Management believes that despite our material weaknesses set forth above, our financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 are fairly stated, in all material respects, in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

 

No Attestation Report by Independent Registered Accountant

 

The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021 has not been audited by our independent registered public accounting firm by virtue of our exemption from such requirement as a smaller reporting company.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the most recent fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act).

 

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

 

The Company’s management does not expect that its disclosure controls or its internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. 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. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on 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. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

Under Rule 13d-3, a beneficial owner of a security includes any person who, directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise has or shares: (i) voting power, which includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of shares; and (ii) investment power, which includes the power to dispose or direct the disposition of shares. Certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon exercise of an option) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares outstanding is deemed to include the number of shares beneficially owned by such person (and only such person) by reason of these acquisition rights. As a result, the percentage of outstanding shares of any person as shown in this table does not necessarily reflect the person’s actual ownership or voting power with respect to the number of shares of common stock actually outstanding on April 14, 2022. As of April 14, 2022, there were 45,919,870 shares of our company’s common stock issued and outstanding.
