PART I
Item 1. Business
Corporate History
On January 22, 2015, the Company changed its name to “Orbital Tracking Corp.” from “Great West Resources, Inc.” pursuant to a merger with a newly formed wholly owned subsidiary.
On March 28, 2014, the Company merged with a newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company solely for the purpose of changing its state of incorporation to Nevada from Delaware, effecting a 1:150 reverse split of its common stock, and changing its name to Great West Resources, Inc. in connection with the plans to enter into the business of potash mining and exploration. During late 2014, the Company abandoned its efforts to enter the potash business.
The Company was originally incorporated in 1997 as a Florida corporation. On April 21, 2010, the Company merged with and into a newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary for the purpose of changing its state of incorporation to Delaware, effecting a 2:1 forward split of its common stock, and changing its name to EClips Media Technologies, Inc. On April 25, 2011, the Company changed its name to “Silver Horn Mining Ltd.” pursuant to a merger with a newly-formed wholly-owned subsidiary.
Global Telesat Communications Limited (“GTCL”) was formed under the laws of England and Wales in 2008. On February 19, 2015, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement with GTCL and all of the holders of the outstanding equity of GTCL pursuant to which GTCL became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
For accounting purposes, this transaction is being accounted for as a reverse acquisition and has been treated as a recapitalization of Orbital Tracking Corp. with Global Telesat Communications Limited considered the accounting acquirer, and the financial statements of the accounting acquirer became the financial statements of the registrant. The completion of the Share Exchange resulted in a change of control. The Share Exchange was accounted for as a reverse acquisition and re-capitalization. The GTCL Shareholders obtained approximately 39% of voting control on the date of Share Exchange. GTCL was the acquirer for financial reporting purposes and the Orbital Tracking Corp. was the acquired company. The consolidated financial statements after the acquisition include the balance sheets of both companies at historical cost, the historical results of GTCL and the results of the Company from the acquisition date. All share and per share information in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and footnotes has been retroactively restated to reflect the recapitalization.
Our Current Business
The Company is a provider of satellite-based hardware, airtime, mapping and related services both in the United States, through its Orbital Satcom subsidiary, and internationally through its UK based subsidiary, GTCL. We sell equipment and airtime for use on all of the major satellite networks including Globalstar, Inmarsat, Iridium and Thuraya and operate a short-term rental service for customers who desire to use our equipment for a limited time period. Our acquisition of GTCL in February 2015 expanded our global satellite based infrastructure and business, which was first launched in December 2014 through the purchase of certain contracts which entitle us to use airtime on one of the world’s largest commercial satellite networks at preferential rates.
Through GTCL, we believe we are one of the largest providers in Europe of retail satellite based hardware, airtime and services through various ecommerce storefronts, and one of the largest providers of personal satellite tracking devices. Our customers include more than 12,000 businesses, U.S. and foreign governments, non-governmental organizations and private consumers all over the world. By enabling wireless communications in areas not served or underserved by terrestrial wireless or in circumstances where terrestrial networks are not operational due to natural or man-made disasters, we seek to meet our customers' increasing desire for connectivity. Our principal focus is on growing our existing satellite based hardware, airtime and related services business line, specifically services attracting recurring revenue for the Company, and developing our own tracking devices for use by retail customers worldwide.
We operate two e-commerce websites, which offer a range of portable satellite voice, data and tracking solutions, known as Mobile Satellite Services or MSS. The e-commerce website operated by our US based Orbital Satcom subsidiary was launched in April 2015 and is due to be relaunched in the 3rd quarter of 2016 on a mobile friendly platform. Our UK subsidiary, GTCL, relaunched a new mobile friendly website in February 2016. These two sites attract customers and enquiries from potential customers from all around the world and we ship globally to customers every day who have found us through these websites. We plan to develop additional country-specific websites or offer translation options on our existing websites to target customers in South America, Asia and Europe where we anticipate there will be substantial demand for our products.
MSS Products
Our MSS products include handheld satellite phones, personal and asset tracking devices, portable high speed broadband terminals, satellite Wi-Fi hotspots, and associated mapping services, all of which work virtually anywhere in the world. These devices rely on satellite networks and thus are not reliant on cell towers or other local infrastructure. As a result, satellite phones and these other MSS solutions are suitable for recreational travelers and adventurers, government and military users, and corporations and individuals in the event of an emergency such as a power outage, hurricane or other natural disaster during which regular cell phone, telephone and internet service may not be available. We purchase these products directly from the manufacturers or distribution partners and sell them directly to end users and a growing base of resellers that we have around the world.
Satellite Telecommunications Services
As a result of the purchase of the contracts from Global Telesat Corp. (“GTC”) in December 2014, we commenced providing mobile voice and data communications services globally via satellite over Globalstar’s satellite based simplex data network. We provide this service through our Orbital Satcom subsidiary. Our rights under the purchased contracts allow us to have preferred pricing arrangements with Globalstar for each account used during the term of contracts. We then offer our customers a range of pay-as-you-go and monthly fee satellite communications airtime options.
The simplex service is a one-way burst data transmission from a commercial simplex device over the Globalstar network that can be used to track and monitor assets. We can use each simplex or one-way transmission account to transmit an unlimited number of locational or status messages from tracking devices used anywhere within the Globalstar simplex coverage area. At the heart of the simplex service is a demodulator and RF interface, called an applique, which is located at a gateway and an application server located in Globalstar’s facilities. The applique-equipped gateways provide coverage over vast areas of the globe. The server receives and collates messages from all simplex devices transmitting over the Globalstar network. Simplex devices consist of a telemetry unit, an application specific sensor, a battery and optional global positioning functionality. The small size of the devices makes them attractive for use in tracking asset shipments, monitoring unattended remote assets, trailer tracking and mobile security.
Aside from providing services over Globalstar’s simplex data network, we are, through GTCL and Orbital Satcom, an authorized reseller of Globalstar’s two-way voice and data transmissions service, called the duplex service, and simplex and duplex satellite telecommunications services offered by other leading networks such as Iridium, Inmarsat and Thuraya. We offer a range of pay-as-you-go and monthly fee satellite communications airtime options from these network providers. We typically pay the network providers a monthly access fee per subscriber, as well as usage fees for airtime minutes used by our subscribers. This is a rapidly growing market and we believe we are well positioned to take advantage of this growth. Our customers are in industries such as maritime, aviation, government/military, emergency/humanitarian services, mining, forestry, oil and gas, heavy equipment, transportation and utilities as well as recreational users. We are focused on growing and diversifying our customer base beyond US government customers and making maximum use of our preferred pricing arrangements with Globalstar to generate increased revenue.
Amazon Storefronts
We make portable satellite voice, data and tracking solutions easier to find and buy online through our Amazon storefronts. We currently have storefronts on Amazon.com in the US, and many other Amazon sites including the UK, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, Mexico, Japan and Canada. We have invested in personnel to translate our listings correctly in the different countries we are represented in and are regularly improving and increasing our listings on all Amazon sites. We currently have more than 1,600 product listings on all Amazon sites and invest in inventory to hold at Amazon’s various warehouses around the world to ensure that orders are shipped and received by customers as quickly as possible. The products include handheld satellite phones, personal and asset tracking devices, portable high speed broadband terminals, and satellite Wi-Fi hotspots. We expect to open more Amazon storefronts before the end of 2016.
Mapping and Tracking Portal
Our advanced mapping and tracking portals, www.orbitaltrack.com offered by Orbital Satcom, and www.gtctrack.com offered by GTCL, have been developed by us and are available for use by registered customers. OrbitalTrack and GTCTrack display real-time worldwide asset location reports including position, speed, altitude and heading and also provides past location and movement history reports on a wide range of tracking devices. These mapping portals are available to all of our customers to monitor their assets and we intend to aggressively pursue new customers for this application.
Proprietary Satellite Tracking Products
We have developed our first own brand global tracking product, a dual-mode asset tracker, which will be available in the marketplace later this year following final testing and receipt of necessary regulatory and compatibility certifications. The Company’s dual-mode asset tracker was designed to address the current technical and service cost challenges facing the global Asset Management Systems market, a market growing at a 20.5% compound annual growth rate and estimated to reach a value of $18.87 billion by 2020 according to research by Market and Markets. The first product designed and developed by the Company, the dual-mode tracker utilizes both cellular and satellite technology to provide truly global tracking, automatically switching between the cellular and satellite links making it an ideal solution for use in both populated and remote areas, including trans-oceanic routes. For commercial users in transportation, shipping, logistics, fleet management and construction, it features detailing reporting alerts, status and GPS location data allowing cargo and vehicles to be tracked nearly anywhere in the world while lowering operating costs by utilizing cellular when available and satellite in remote areas, optimizing roaming charges and delivering significant cost savings.
We anticipate that we will be able to develop and certify the new dual-mode tracker for approximately $50,000 to $75,000 and believe there is strong customer demand based on existing customer requests.
We also intend to develop additional personal and asset tracking products suitable for government and recreational users. Users of these devices will be able to see the location and movements of their devices through our OrbitalTrack or GTCTrack portals. Anticipated costs for completion are approximately $75,000 to $100,000. These products will operate on the Iridium, Inmarsat, Globalstar and Thuraya satellite networks.
Industry and Market
We compete in the mobile satellite products and services sector of the global communications industry. The products and airtime that we sell are intended to meet users’ needs for connectivity in all locations where existing terrestrial wireline and wireless communications networks do not exist, do not provide sufficient coverage, or are impaired. Government organizations, including military and intelligence agencies and disaster response agencies, non-governmental organizations and industrial operations and support teams depend on mobile voice and data satellite communications products and services on a regular basis. Businesses with global operations require reliable communications services when operating in remote locations around the world. Mobile satellite services users span many sectors, including emergency services, maritime, aviation, government, utilities, oil and gas, mining, recreation, forestry, heavy equipment, construction, and transportation, among others. Many of our customers view satellite communications products and services as critical to their daily operations.
There is an existing, and we believe significantly growing, multi-billion dollar global market for a small and cost effective solution for receiving and processing mobile voice and data communications from remote locations used in applications such as tracking vehicles or asset shipments, monitoring unattended remote assets or mobile security. Over the past two decades, the global mobile satellite services market has experienced significant growth. Increasingly, better-tailored, improved-technology products and services are creating new channels of demand for mobile satellite services. Growth in demand for mobile satellite voice services is driven by the declining cost of these services, the diminishing size and lower costs of the devices, as well as heightened demand by governments, businesses and individuals for ubiquitous global voice and data coverage. We believe our solutions are ideally suited for industries such as maritime, aviation, government/military, emergency/humanitarian services, mining, forestry, oil and gas, heavy equipment, transportation and utilities, as well as recreational users. We do not tailor our products and services to different types of customers as in our experience military, non-profit, government and recreational users tend to purchase the same types of products and services.
Competition
The competitors for our satellite telecommunications services and products are other leading satellite networks such as Iridium, Inmarsat, Thuraya and Globalstar, and their various resellers such as Network Innovations, Applied Satellite Technology (AST) and Satcom Global, some of which are also our suppliers. We expect the competition for our satellite telecommunications services and our satellite tracking and monitoring services to increase significantly as the market demand accelerates. We believe that we will be well positioned to compete for the satellite telecommunications services business largely on a cost basis and due to our global presence with various websites and Amazon storefronts. We believe that we will be able to charge our customers lower prices for satellite airtime than our competitors due to the preferential pricing we have with Globalstar due to the Globalstar agreements. We believe that we will be able to compete in the MSS market due to our competitive pricing, varied products and easy to use website and Amazon storefront.
Intellectual Property
Our success and ability to compete depends in part on our ability to maintain our trade secrets. All of our employees and consultants are subject to non-disclosure agreements and other contractual provisions to establish and maintain our proprietary rights. In connection with the purchase of the contracts from GTC and related agreements, GTC and its parent World Surveillance Group, Inc. agreed to keep confidential certain information. In February 2015 we purchased certain software, including source code and executable code, and electronic files required for the development of dual mode trackers. On October 13, 2015, we purchased
appliques, which are demodulator and RF interfaces located at various ground stations for gateways.
Research and Development
On February 19, 2015, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of common stock, at $0.05 per share, or $50,000, to a consultant as compensation for the design and delivery of dual mode gsm/Globalstar Simplex tracking devices and related hardware and intellectual property. We spent $50,000 and $0, respectively, in the fiscal years ending December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 on research and development.
Regulatory Matters
Government contract laws and regulations affect how we will do business with our customers, and in some instances, will impose added costs on our business. A violation of specific laws and regulations could result in the imposition of fines and penalties, the termination of any then existing contracts or the inability to bid on future contracts. We intend our Orbital Sub to become qualified as a government contractor.
International sales of our products may also be subject to U.S. and foreign laws, regulations and policies like the United States Department of State restrictions on the transfer of technology, International Traffic in Arms Regulation (“ITAR”) and other export laws and regulations and may be subject to first obtaining licenses, clearances or authorizations from various regulatory entities. This may limit our ability to sell our products abroad and the failure to comply with any of these regulations could adversely affect our ability to conduct our business and generate revenues as well as increasing our operating costs. Our products may also be subject to regulation by the National Telecommunications and Information Administration and the Federal Communications Commission that regulate wireless communications.
Sources and Availability of Components
Certain materials and equipment for our products are custom made for those products and are dependent upon either a single or limited number of suppliers. Failure of a supplier could cause delays in delivery of the products if another supplier cannot promptly be found or if the quality of such replacement supplier’s components are inferior or unacceptable.
Employees
We currently have 8 full time and 1 part time employee, not including David Phipps, our Chief Executive Officer and President, and Theresa Carlise, our Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Phipps and Ms. Carlise work for us full time.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Risks Related to Our Business
Product development is a long, expensive and uncertain process.
The development of satellite tracking devices is a costly, complex and time-consuming process, and the investment in product development often involves a long wait until a return, if any, is achieved on such investment. We continue to make significant investments in research and development relating to our satellite ground stations and tracking devices and our other businesses. Investments in new technology and processes are inherently speculative. We have experienced numerous setbacks and delays in our research and development efforts and may encounter further obstacles in the course of the development of additional technologies and products. We may not be able to overcome these obstacles or may have to expend significant additional funds and time. Technical obstacles and challenges we encounter in our research and development process may result in delays in or abandonment of product commercialization, may substantially increase the costs of development, and may negatively affect our results of operations.
Successful technical development of our products does not guarantee successful commercialization.
We may successfully complete the technical development for one or all of our product development programs, but still fail to develop a commercially successful product for a number of reasons, including among others the following:
●
|
failure to obtain the required regulatory approvals for their use;
|
●
|
prohibitive production costs;
|
●
|
competing products;
|
●
|
lack of innovation of the product;
|
●
|
ineffective distribution and marketing;
|
●
|
lack of sufficient cooperation from our partners; and
|
●
|
demonstrations of the products not aligning with or meeting customer needs.
|
Our success in the market for the products we develop will depend largely on our ability to prove our products’ capabilities. Upon demonstration, our satellite ground stations and tracking devices may not have the capabilities they were designed to have or that we believed they would have. Furthermore, even if we do successfully demonstrate our products’ capabilities, potential customers may be more comfortable doing business with a larger, more established, more proven company than us. Moreover, competing products may prevent us from gaining wide market acceptance of our products. Significant revenue from new product investments may not be achieved for a number of years, if at all.
If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, we could lose our ability to compete in the marketplace.
Our intellectual property and proprietary rights are important to our ability to remain competitive and for the success of our products and our business. We rely on a combination of trademark and trade secret laws as well as confidentiality agreements and procedures, non-compete agreements and other contractual provisions to protect our intellectual property, other proprietary rights and our brand. We have confidentiality agreements in place with our consultants, Globalstar, customers and certain business suppliers and plan to require future employees to enter into confidentiality and non-compete agreements. We are also in the process of trademarking “Orbital Satcom”. We have little protection when we must rely on trade secrets and nondisclosure agreements. Our intellectual property rights may be challenged, invalidated or circumvented by third parties. We may not be able to prevent the unauthorized disclosure or use of our technical knowledge or other trade secrets by employees or competitors. Furthermore, our competitors may independently develop technologies and products that are substantially equivalent or superior to our technologies and/or products, which could result in decreased revenues. Moreover, the laws of foreign countries may not protect our intellectual property rights to the same extent as the laws of the U.S. Litigation may be necessary to enforce our intellectual property rights which could result in substantial costs to us and substantial diversion of management attention. If we do not adequately protect our intellectual property, our competitors could use it to enhance their products. Our inability to adequately protect our intellectual property rights could adversely affect our business and financial condition, and the value of our brand and other intangible assets.
Other companies may claim that we infringe their intellectual property, which could materially increase our costs and harm our ability to generate future revenue and profit.
We do not believe that we infringe the proprietary rights of any third party, but claims of infringement are becoming increasingly common and third parties may assert infringement claims against us. It may be difficult or impossible to identify, prior to receipt of notice from a third party, the trade secrets, patent position or other intellectual property rights of a third party, either in the United States or in foreign jurisdictions. Any such assertion may result in litigation or may require us to obtain a license for the intellectual property rights of third parties. If we are required to obtain licenses to use any third party technology, we would have to pay royalties, which may significantly reduce any profit on our products. In addition, any such litigation could be expensive and disruptive to our ability to generate revenue or enter into new market opportunities. If any of our products were found to infringe other parties’ proprietary rights and we are unable to come to terms regarding a license with such parties, we may be forced to modify our products to make them non-infringing or to cease production of such products altogether.
The nature of our business involves significant risks and uncertainties that may not be covered by insurance or indemnity.
We develop and sell products where insurance or indemnification may not be available, including:
●
|
designing and developing products using advanced and unproven technologies in intelligence and homeland security applications that are intended to operate in high demand, high risk situations; and
|
●
|
designing and developing products to collect, distribute and analyze various types of information.
|
Failure of certain of our products could result in loss of life or property damage. Certain products may raise questions with respect to issues of privacy rights, civil liberties, intellectual property, trespass, conversion and similar concepts, which may raise new legal issues. Indemnification to cover potential claims or liabilities resulting from a failure of technologies developed or deployed may be available in certain circumstances but not in others. We are not able to maintain insurance to protect against all operational risks and uncertainties. Substantial claims resulting from an accident, failure of our product, or liability arising from our products in excess of any indemnity or insurance coverage (or for which indemnity or insurance is not available or was not obtained) could harm our financial condition, cash flows, and operating results. Any accident, even if fully covered or insured, could negatively affect our reputation among our customers and the public, and make it more difficult for us to compete effectively.
We are heavily reliant on David Phipps, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, and the departure or loss of David Phipps could disrupt our business.
The Company depends heavily on the continued efforts of David Phipps, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and a director. Mr. Phipps is the founder of GTCL and is essential to the Company’s strategic vision and day-to-day operations and would be difficult to replace. While we have entered into a two year employment contract with Mr. Phipps, we cannot be certain that he will desire to continue with us for the duration of the employment term. The departure or loss of Mr. Phipps, or the inability to hire and retain a qualified replacement, could negatively impact the Company’s ability to manage its business.
If we are unable to recruit and retain key management, technical and sales personnel, our business would be negatively affected.
For our business to be successful, we need to attract and retain highly qualified technical, management and sales personnel. The failure to recruit additional key personnel when needed with specific qualifications and on acceptable terms or to retain good relationships with our partners might impede our ability to continue to develop, commercialize and sell our products. To the extent the demand for skilled personnel exceeds supply, we could experience higher labor, recruiting and training costs in order to attract and retain such employees. We face competition for qualified personnel from other companies with significantly more resources available to them and thus may not be able to attract the level of personnel needed for our business to succeed.
The control deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting may until remedied cause errors in our financial statements or cause our filings with the SEC to not be timely.
We believe there exist control deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, including those related to (i) our internal audit functions and (ii) a lack of segregation of duties within accounting functions. Those deficiencies, and others, were exacerbated by our entrance into the mobile satellite communications business in December 2015 and consummation of the Share Exchange in February 2015. If our internal control over financial reporting or disclosure controls and procedures are not effective, there may be errors in our financial statements that could require a restatement or our filings may not be timely made with the SEC. We intend to implement additional corporate governance and control measures to strengthen our control environment as we are able, but we may not achieve our desired objectives. Moreover, no control environment, no matter how well designed and operated, can prevent or detect all errors or fraud. We may identify material weaknesses and control deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting in the future that may require remediation and could lead investors losing confidence in our reported financial information, which could lead to a decline in our stock price.
Risks Related to Our Organization and Our Common Stock
Certain shareholders will be able to exert significant influence over us to the detriment of minority stockholders.
Our ten largest shareholders beneficially own approximately 50.98% of our outstanding common stock as of March 28, 2016, as calculated according to voting power. These stockholders, if they act together, will be able to exert significant influence on our management and affairs and all matters requiring stockholder approval, including significant corporate transactions. This concentration of ownership may have the effect of delaying or preventing our change in control and might affect the market price of our common stock.
You may experience dilution of your ownership interests because of the future issuance of additional shares of our common or preferred stock or other securities that are convertible into or exercisable for our common or preferred stock.
On March 5, 2016, the Company’s’ shareholders approved to increase the authorized common and preferred shares. On March 9, 2016, the Company filed with the Secretary of the State of Nevada, its amended articles of incorporation, reflecting the shareholders' approval. We are authorized to issue an aggregate of 750,000,000 shares of common stock and 50,000,000 shares of “blank check” preferred stock. In the future, we may issue our authorized but previously unissued equity securities, resulting in the dilution of the ownership interests of our present stockholders. We may issue additional shares of our common stock or other securities that are convertible into or exercisable for our common stock in connection with hiring or retaining employees, future acquisitions, future sales of our securities for capital raising purposes, or for other business purposes. The future issuance of any such additional shares of our common stock may create downward pressure on the trading price of the common stock. We will need to raise additional capital in the near future to meet our working capital needs, and there can be no assurance that we will not be required to issue additional shares, warrants or other convertible securities in the future in conjunction with these capital raising efforts, including at a price (or exercise or conversion prices) below the price an investor paid for stock. Further, in the event that we issue common stock or securities convertible into common stock at a price that is lower than $0.05 per share of common stock, subject to certain exceptions, holders of an aggregate of 25,624,425 shares of our common stock and common stock underlying certain preferred shares will be entitled to receive additional securities. We will be required to issue to these holders additional securities such that they will hold that number of shares of common stock or securities convertible into common stock as if they had originally purchased their securities at the lower price.
Conversion of our outstanding preferred stock may dilute the ownership interest of existing stockholders or may otherwise depress the price of our common stock.
The conversion of some or all of our outstanding Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”), Series C Preferred Stock, Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock, will dilute the ownership interests of existing stockholders. We have authorized 20,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) and currently have no Series A Preferred Stock outstanding. Any sales in the public market of the common stock issuable upon such conversion could adversely affect prevailing market prices of our common stock. In addition, the existence of the preferred stock may encourage short selling by market participants because the conversion of the preferred stock could be used to satisfy short positions, or anticipated conversion of the preferred stock into shares of our common stock could depress the price of our common stock.
The total number of shares of preferred stock authorized, preferred stock issued and outstanding as of March 28, 2016 and common stock that may be issued upon conversion of each class of preferred stock as of March 28, 2016 is set forth below.

Not accounting for any applicable limitations on beneficial ownership.

Even though the holders of the convertible preferred stock may not convert these securities if they would own more than 9.99% or 4.99%, as applicable, of the then-outstanding common stock, this restriction does not prevent these holders from selling some of their holdings and then converting additional shares. In this way, the holders could sell more than these limits while never holding more than those limits.
We do not anticipate paying dividends on our common stock, and investors may lose the entire amount of their investment.
Cash dividends have never been declared or paid on our common stock, and we do not anticipate such a declaration or payment for the foreseeable future. We expect to use future earnings, if any, to fund business growth. Therefore, stockholders will not receive any funds absent a sale of their shares of common stock. If we do not pay dividends, our common stock may be less valuable because a return on your investment will only occur if our stock price appreciates. We cannot assure stockholders of a positive return on their investment when they sell their shares, nor can we assure that stockholders will not lose the entire amount of their investment.
Being a public company is expensive and administratively burdensome.
As a public reporting company, we are subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and other federal securities laws, rules and regulations related thereto, including compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Complying with these laws and regulations requires the time and attention of our Board of Directors and management, and increases our expenses. We estimate the Company will incur approximately $200,000 to $300,000 annually in connection with being a public company.
Among other things, we are required to:
● | maintain and evaluate a system of internal controls over financial reporting in compliance with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and the related rules and regulations of the SEC and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board; |
● | prepare and distribute periodic reports in compliance with our obligations under federal securities laws; |
● | institute a more comprehensive compliance function, including with respect to corporate governance; and |
● | involve, to a greater degree, our outside legal counsel and accountants in the above activities. |
The costs of preparing and filing annual and quarterly reports, proxy statements and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders are expensive and much greater than that of a privately-held company, and compliance with these rules and regulations may require us to hire additional financial reporting, internal controls and other finance personnel, and will involve a material increase in regulatory, legal and accounting expenses and the attention of management. There can be no assurance that we will be able to comply with the applicable regulations in a timely manner, if at all. In addition, being a public company makes it more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance. In the future, we may be required to accept reduced coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain this coverage.
If we fail to establish and maintain an effective system of internal control, we may not be able to report our financial results accurately or to prevent fraud. Any inability to report and file our financial results accurately and timely could harm our reputation and adversely impact the trading price of our common stock.
Effective internal control is necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and prevent fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, we may not be able to manage our business as effectively as we would if an effective control environment existed, and our business and reputation with investors may be harmed. As a result, our small size and any current internal control deficiencies may adversely affect our financial condition, results of operation and access to capital. We have not performed an in-depth analysis to determine if historical un-discovered failures of internal controls exist, and may in the future discover areas of our internal control that need improvement.
Public company compliance may make it more difficult to attract and retain officers and directors.
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act and new rules subsequently implemented by the SEC have required changes in corporate governance practices of public companies. As a public company, we expect these new rules and regulations to increase our compliance costs in 2016 and beyond and to make certain activities more time consuming and costly. As a public company, we also expect that these new rules and regulations may make it more difficult and expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance in the future 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 persons to serve on our Board of Directors or as executive officers.
You could lose all of your investment.
An investment in our securities is speculative and involves a high degree of risk. Potential investors should be aware that the value of an investment in the Company may go down as well as up. In addition, there can be no certainty that the market value of an investment in the Company will fully reflect its underlying value. You could lose your entire investment.
The ability of our Board of Directors to issue additional stock may prevent or make more difficult certain transactions, including a sale or merger of the Company.
Our Board of Directors is authorized to issue up to 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock with powers, rights and preferences designated by it. See “Preferred Stock” in the section of this Current Report titled “Description of Securities.” Shares of voting or convertible preferred stock could be issued, or rights to purchase such shares could be issued, to create voting impediments or to frustrate persons seeking to effect a takeover or otherwise gain control of the Company. The ability of the Board of Directors to issue such additional shares of preferred stock, with rights and preferences it deems advisable, could discourage an attempt by a party to acquire control of the Company by tender offer or other means. Such issuances could therefore deprive stockholders of benefits that could result from such an attempt, such as the realization of a premium over the market price for their shares in a tender offer or the temporary increase in market price that such an attempt could cause. Moreover, the issuance of such additional shares of preferred stock to persons friendly to the Board of Directors could make it more difficult to remove incumbent officers and directors from office even if such change were to be favorable to stockholders generally.
Our stock may be traded infrequently and in low volumes, so you may be unable to sell your shares at or near the quoted bid prices if you need to sell your shares.
Until our common stock is listed on a national securities exchange such as the New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq Stock Market, we expect our common stock to remain eligible for quotation on the OTC Markets, or on another over-the-counter quotation system, or in the “pink sheets.” In those venues, however, the shares of our common stock may trade infrequently and in low volumes, meaning that the number of persons interested in purchasing our common shares at or near bid prices at any given time may be relatively small or non-existent. An investor may find it difficult to obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of our common stock or to sell his or her shares at or near bid prices or at all. In addition, if we fail to meet the criteria set forth in SEC regulations, various requirements would be imposed by law on broker-dealers who sell our securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. Consequently, such regulations may deter broker-dealers from recommending or selling our common stock, which may further affect the liquidity of our common stock. This would also make it more difficult for us to raise capital.
There currently is no active public market for our common stock and there can be no assurance that an active public market will ever develop. Failure to develop or maintain a trading market could negatively affect the value of our common stock and make it difficult or impossible for you to sell your shares.
There is currently no active public market for shares of our common stock and one may never develop. Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Markets. The OTC Markets is a thinly traded market and lacks the liquidity of certain other public markets with which some investors may have more experience. We may not ever be able to satisfy the listing requirements for our common stock to be listed on a national securities exchange, which is often a more widely-traded and liquid market. Some, but not all, of the factors which may delay or prevent the listing of our common stock on a more widely-traded and liquid market include the following: our stockholders’ equity may be insufficient; the market value of our outstanding securities may be too low; our net income from operations may be too low; our common stock may not be sufficiently widely held; we may not be able to secure market makers for our common stock; and we may fail to meet the rules and requirements mandated by the several exchanges and markets to have our common stock listed. Should we fail to satisfy the initial listing standards of the national exchanges, or our common stock is otherwise rejected for listing, and remains listed on the OTC Markets or is suspended from the OTC Markets, the trading price of our common stock could suffer and the trading market for our common stock may be less liquid and our common stock price may be subject to increased volatility, making it difficult or impossible to sell shares of our common stock.
Our common stock is subject to the “penny stock” rules of the SEC and the trading market in the securities is limited, which makes transactions in the stock cumbersome and may reduce the value of an investment in the stock.
Rule 15g-9 under the Exchange Act establishes the definition of a “penny stock,” for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require: (a) that a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks; and (b) the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.
In order to approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must: (a) obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person and (b) make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.
The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the SEC relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form: (a) sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and (b) confirms that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction. Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the “penny stock” rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our common stock.
Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker or dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.
Our stock price may be volatile.
The market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile and could fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors, many of which are beyond our control, including the following:
|
●
|
changes in our industry;
|
|
●
|
competitive pricing pressures;
|
|
●
|
our ability to obtain working capital financing;
|
|
●
|
additions or departures of key personnel;
|
|
●
|
sales of our common stock;
|
|
●
|
our ability to execute our business plan;
|
|
●
|
operating results that fall below expectations;
|
|
●
|
loss of any strategic relationship;
|
|
●
|
regulatory developments; and
|
|
●
|
economic and other external factors.
|
In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These market fluctuations may also materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
Offers or availability for sale of a substantial number of shares of our common stock may cause the price of our common stock to decline.
If our stockholders sell substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, including upon the expiration of any statutory holding period under Rule 144, or issued upon the conversion of preferred stock or exercise of warrants, it could create a circumstance commonly referred to as an "overhang" and in anticipation of which the market price of our common stock could fall. The existence of an overhang, whether or not sales have occurred or are occurring, also could make more difficult our ability to raise additional financing through the sale of equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that we deem reasonable or appropriate.
Investor relations activities, nominal “float” and supply and demand factors may affect the price of our stock.
The Company expects to utilize various techniques such as non-deal road shows and investor relations campaigns in order to create investor awareness for the Company. These campaigns may include personal, video and telephone conferences with investors and prospective investors in which our business practices are described. The Company may provide compensation to investor relations firms and pay for newsletters, websites, mailings and email campaigns that are produced by third-parties based upon publicly-available information concerning the Company. The Company does not intend to review or approve the content of such analysts’ reports or other materials based upon analysts’ own research or methods. Investor relations firms should generally disclose when they are compensated for their efforts, but whether such disclosure is made or complete is not under our control. In addition, investors in the Company may, from time to time, also take steps to encourage investor awareness through similar activities that may be undertaken at the expense of the investors. Investor awareness activities may also be suspended or discontinued which may impact the trading market our common stock.
The SEC and FINRA enforce various statutes and regulations intended to prevent manipulative or deceptive devices in connection with the purchase or sale of any security and carefully scrutinize trading patterns and company news and other communications for false or misleading information, particularly in cases where the hallmarks of “pump and dump” activities may exist, such as rapid share price increases or decreases. We, and our shareholders may be subjected to enhanced regulatory scrutiny due to the small number of holders who initially will own the registered shares of our common stock publicly available for resale, and the limited trading markets in which such shares may be offered or sold which have often been associated with improper activities concerning penny-stocks, such as the OTCQB Marketplace or the OTCPink Marketplace (Pink OTC) or pink sheets. Until such time as our restricted shares are registered or available for resale under Rule 144, there will continue to be a small percentage of shares held by a small number of investors, many of whom acquired such shares in privately negotiated purchase and sale transactions, which will constitute the entire available trading market. The Supreme Court has stated that manipulative action is a term of art connoting intentional or willful conduct designed to deceive or defraud investors by controlling or artificially affecting the price of securities. Often times, manipulation is associated by regulators with forces that upset the supply and demand factors that would normally determine trading prices. Since a small percentage of the outstanding common stock of the Company will initially be available for trading, held by a small number of individuals or entities, the supply of our common stock for sale will be extremely limited for an indeterminate amount of time, which could result in higher bids, asks or sales prices than would otherwise exist. Securities regulators have often cited factors such as thinly-traded markets, small numbers of holders, and awareness campaigns as hallmarks of claims of price manipulation and other violations of law when combined with manipulative trading, such as wash sales, matched orders or other manipulative trading timed to coincide with false or touting press releases. There can be no assurance that the Company’s or third-parties’ activities, or the small number of potential sellers or small percentage of stock in the “float,” or determinations by purchasers or holders as to when or under what circumstances or at what prices they may be willing to buy or sell stock will not artificially impact (or would be claimed by regulators to have affected) the normal supply and demand factors that determine the price of the stock.

The following table sets forth the high and low closing bid prices for our common stock for the fiscal quarter indicated as reported on OTC Markets, as adjusted for our 150:1 reverse split approved by FINRA April 21, 2014 (the “Reverse Split”). The quotations reflect inter-dealer prices, without retail mark-up, mark-down or commission and may not represent actual transactions. Our common stock is very thinly traded and, thus, pricing of our common stock on OTC Markets does not necessarily represent its fair market value. The last reported sales price of our common stock on the OTC Markets on March 28, 2016 was $0.199 per share.

The Company entered into a separation agreement with its former Secretary pursuant to which, in exchange for a release of all claims against the Company, the former Secretary received a one-time severance payment of $5,000.
On December 10, 2014, the Company entered the satellite voice and data equipment sales and service business through the purchase of certain contracts from Global Telesat Corp. These contracts permit the Company to utilize the Globalstar, Inc. and Globalstar LLC (collectively, “Globalstar”) mobile satellite voice and data network. The purchase price for the contracts of $250,000 was paid by the Company under an asset purchase agreement by and among the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiary Orbital Satcom Corp. (“Orbital Satcom”), GTC and World Surveillance Group, Inc., which owns 100% of GTC. Also on December 10, 2014, the Company, Orbital Sub, GTC and World entered into a license agreement pursuant to which GTC granted to Orbital Sub a fully paid and irrevocable non-exclusive license to use certain equipment owned by GTC or its affiliates consisting of “Appliqués” located in Globalstar’s facilities.

We had net cash used in operations of approximately $620,944 during the year ended December 31, 2015. At December 31, 2015, we had a working capital of approximately $695,117. Additionally, at December 31, 2015, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $2,011,483 and stockholder’s equity of $2,881,792. These matters and our expected needs for capital investments required to support operational growth raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible effects on recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from our inability to continue as a going concern.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management’s applications of accounting policies. Critical accounting policies for our company include accounting for derivative liabilities and stock based compensation.
Stock Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of the Share-Based Payment Topic of ASC 718 which requires recognition in the consolidated condensed financial statements of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award.
Pursuant to ASC Topic 505-50, for share-based payments to consultants and other third parties, compensation expense is determined at the “measurement date.” The expense is recognized over the vesting period of the award. Until the measurement date is reached, the total amount of compensation expense remains uncertain. The Company initially records compensation expense based on the fair value of the award at the reporting date.
Use of Estimates
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the statements of financial condition, and revenues and expenses for the years then ended. Actual results may differ significantly from those estimates. Significant estimates made by management include, but are not limited to, the assumptions used to calculate stock-based compensation, derivative liabilities, preferred deemed dividend and common stock issued for services.
Results of Operations
Net Revenue. For the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, revenues generated were approximately $3,950,601 and $2,420,645, an increase of $1,529,956 or 63.2%. Revenues were derived primarily from the sales of satellite phones, accessories and the airtime plans. Our wholly owned subsidiary, Orbital Satcom Corp., represented $1,181,007 of the increase. Comparable sales for Global Telestat Communications LTD increased 14.2% or $348,949, from $2,420,645 to $2,769,594.
Cost of Sales. During the year ended December 31, 2015, cost of revenues increased to $2,838,521 compared to $1,739,388 for the year ended December 31, 2014, an increase of $1,099,133 or 63.2%. Our wholly owned subsidiary, Orbital Satcom Corp., represented $793,715 of the increase, or 72.2%. We expect our cost of revenues to continue to increase during fiscal 2016 and beyond, as we expand our operations and begin generating additional revenues under our current business. However, we are unable at this time to estimate the amount of the expected increases. Gross profit margins during the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 were 28.2% and 28.1%, respectively.
Operating Expenses. Total operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2015 were $3,103,405, an increase of $2,435,964, or 365.0%, from total operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2014 of $667,441.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $644,870 and $401,114 for the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, an increase of $243,756 or 60.8%. The increases were attributable to variable costs, which increase with revenue, such as credit card processing fees, online service fees, bank charges, postage, advertising and marketing.
Salaries, wages and payroll taxes were $582,226 and $241,510 for the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, an increase of $340,716, or 141.1%. Additionally the increase is related to costs associated with personnel to support the requirements for public companies as well as, personnel to accommodate and support revenue goals and build the Company’s infrastructure for future growth and opportunities.
Stock based compensation were non-cash expenses, for awards of 1,100,000 shares of Company’s stock and 2,850,000 fully vested options to purchase common stock at an exercise price of $0.05 per share, to employees and a director. For the year ended December 31, 2015, stock based compensation was $1,072,500. For the year ended December 31, 2014, there was no stock based compensation.
Professional fees were $505,762 and $4,215 for the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, an increase of $501,547 or 11898%. The increase during the year ended December 31, 2015 as compared to the prior year in 2014 was primarily attributable to the Company’s reverse merger into a public company and the costs attributable to such. Investor relations represented 42% of the increase or $214,648. Other fees associated with the compliance requirements of public companies are included in Professional fees as well as fees associated with raising capital. On December 28, 2015, $350,000 of the Company’s proceeds from convertible notes and preferred stock subscriptions, $1.1 million, has been reserved for investor awareness costs.
Depreciation and amortization expenses were $298,047 and $20,602 for the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, an increase of $277,445, or 1346.7%. The increase during the 2015 period was primarily attributable to increases in intangible assets and the associated amortization. Amortization for the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 was $203,635 and $0, respectively.
We expect our expenses in each of these areas to continue to increase during fiscal 2016 and beyond as we expand our operations and begin generating additional revenues under our current business. However, we are unable at this time to estimate the amount of the expected increases.
Total Other (Income) Expense. Our total other expenses were $72,886 compared to $7,325 during the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 respectively, increase of $65,561 or 894.9%. The increase is primarily attributed to the increase recognized due to changes in the fair value of derivative instruments, exchange rate variances and interest expense.
Net Income (Loss)
We recorded net loss before income tax of $2,064,211 for the year ended December 31, 2015 as compared to a net income of $6,490, for the year ended December 31, 2014. The decrease is a result of the factors as described above.
Comprehensive (Loss) Income
We recorded a loss for foreign currency translation adjustments for the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, of $11,414 and $849, respectively. The fluctuations of the increase/decrease is primarily attributed to the increase recognized due to exchange rate variances. Comprehensive loss was $2,075,625 as compared to income of $5,641 for the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. At December 31, 2015, we had a cash balance of $963,329. Our working capital is approximately $505,149 at December 31, 2015. On December 28, 2015, the Company received gross proceeds of $1.1 million from sale of convertible notes payable and stock subscriptions.
Our current assets at December 31, 2015 increased to $1,632,349 from $384,034, or 325% from December 31, 2014 and included cash, inventory, accounts receivable, unbilled revenue, prepaid expenses and other current assets. Cash represented proceeds from the sale of convertible notes payable and Preferred Series F stock subscriptions. Prepaid expenses primarily represent services to consultants, which are amortized over the length of the contract.
Our current liabilities at December 31, 2015 increased to $1,127,200 from $388,076 or an increase of $739,124, or 190.5% from December 31, 2014 and included our accounts payable, accrued expenses, due to related party, associated derivative liability and liabilities of discontinued operations.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.
Management’s Conclusions Regarding Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of December 31, 2015, the end of the year covered by this report, our management concluded its evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures.
Disclosure controls and procedures refer to controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures.
Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent 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. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, 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. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
With respect to the fiscal year ending December 31, 2015, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operations of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based upon our evaluation regarding the fiscal year ending December 31, 2015, our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective due to our limited internal audit functions and lack of ability to have multiple levels of transaction review. The Company has been actively addressing the evaluation and has retained a full-time Chief Financial Officer during the last quarter of its fiscal year.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act. Our management is also required to assess and report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Section 404”). Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015. In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control - Integrated Framework. During our assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015, management identified significant deficiencies related to (i) our internal audit functions and (ii) a lack of segregation of duties within accounting functions. Therefore, our internal controls over financial reporting were not effective as of December 31, 2015.
Management has determined that our internal audit function is significantly deficient due to insufficient qualified resources to perform internal audit functions.
Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible. However, to the extent possible, we will implement procedures to assure that the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions will be performed by separate individuals. During the last quarter of its fiscal year, the Company has retained a Chief Financial Officer full time to address these issues.
We believe that the foregoing steps will remediate the significant deficiency identified above, and we will continue to monitor the effectiveness of these steps and make any changes that our management deems appropriate. Due to the nature of this significant deficiency in our internal control over financial reporting, there is more than a remote likelihood that misstatements which could be material to our annual or interim financial statements could occur that would not be prevented or detected.
A material weakness (within the meaning of PCAOB Auditing Standard No. 5) 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. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those responsible for oversight of the company’s financial reporting.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control 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 and procedures may deteriorate.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
Changes in Internal Controls
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Family Relationships
There are no family relationships between any of our directors, executive officers or directors except as set forth herein.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

Term of Office

The Board of Directors shall not appoint any new members or vote to increase its size in the absence of the written consent of Mr. Phipps.
Director Independence
Mr. Phipps is not an "independent" director based on the definition of independence in the listing standards of the NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”). Mr. Delgado is an "independent" director based on the definition of independence in the listing standards of NASDAQ.
Committees of the Board of Directors
Audit Committee. We intend to establish an audit committee of the Board of Directors once we have satisfied the other initial listing standards for listing our common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market or another national exchange. The audit committee will consist of independent directors, of which at least one director will qualify as a qualified financial expert as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K. The audit committee’s duties will be to recommend to our Board of Directors the engagement of independent auditors to audit our financial statements and to review our accounting and auditing principles. The audit committee will review the scope, timing and fees for the annual audit and the results of audit examinations performed by the internal auditors and independent public accountants, including their recommendations to improve the system of accounting and internal controls. The audit committee will at all times be composed exclusively of directors who are, in the opinion of our Board of Directors, free from any relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment as a committee member and who possess an understanding of financial statements and generally accepted accounting principles.
Compensation Committee. We intend to establish a compensation committee of the Board of Directors once we have satisfied the other initial listing standards for listing our common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market or another national exchange. The compensation committee will review and approve our salary and benefits policies, including compensation of executive officers. The compensation committee will also administer our stock option plans and recommend and approve grants of stock options under such plans.
Nominating Committee. We intend to establish a nominating committee of the Board of Directors once we have satisfied the other initial listing standards for listing our common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market or another national exchange. The nominating committee will consider and make recommendations on matters related to the practices, policies and procedures of the Board and take a leadership role in shaping our corporate governance. As part of its duties, the nominating committee would assess the size, structure and composition of the Board and its committees, and coordinate the evaluation of Board performance. The nominating committee would also act as a screening and nominating committee for candidates considered for election to the Board.
Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight
Our Board of Directors is primarily responsible for overseeing our risk management processes on behalf of the Company. The Board of Directors receives and reviews periodic reports from management, auditors, legal counsel, and others, as considered appropriate regarding our Company’s assessment of risks. The Board of Directors focuses on the most significant risks facing our Company and our Company’s general risk management strategy, and also ensures that risks undertaken by our Company are consistent with the Board’s appetite for risk. While the Board oversees our Company’s risk management, management is responsible for day-to-day risk management processes. We believe this division of responsibilities is the most effective approach for addressing the risks facing our Company and that our Board leadership structure supports this approach.

(1) In determining the voting power held by a person or entity on March 28, 2016, the percentage of total voting power represents voting power with respect to all shares of our common stock and preferred stock, as a single class. The holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote per share, holders of our Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to one vote per share, holders of our Series C Preferred Stock are entitled to ten votes per share, holders of our Series D Preferred Stock are entitled to 20 votes per share, holders of our Series E Preferred Stock are entitled to ten votes per share and holders of our Series F Preferred Stock are entitled to one vote per share. Shares of common stock which may be acquired within 60 days upon exercise of warrants or options or conversion of promissory notes were not included in calculating the voting power.
In determining the percent of common stock beneficially owned by a person or entity on March 28, 2016, (a) the numerator is the number of shares of the class beneficially owned by such person or entity, including shares which may be acquired within 60 days on exercise of warrants or options and conversion of preferred stock and promissory notes, and (b) the denominator is the sum of (i) the total shares of common stock outstanding on March 28, 2016 (21,587,014) and (ii) the total number of shares that the beneficial owner may acquire upon exercise of warrants or options and conversion of preferred stock and promissory notes, subject to limitations on conversion and exercise as more fully described in the notes below, which is an aggregate of 10,808,929 shares (includes the 8,653,929 preferred shares plus 5,000 shares issuable upon exercise of warrants and 2,850,000 shares issuable upon exercise of options).

Pursuant to the terms of the Series B Preferred Stock, a holder cannot convert any of the Series B Preferred Stock if such holder would beneficially own, after any such conversion, more than 9.99% of the outstanding shares of common stock.

Pursuant to the terms of the Series D Preferred Stock, a holder cannot convert any of the Series D Preferred Stock if such holder would beneficially own, after any such conversion, more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of common stock.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.
The Company
SEC rules require us to disclose any transaction or currently proposed transaction in which the Company is a participant and in which any related person has or will have a direct or indirect material interest involving the lesser of $120,000 or one percent (1%) of the average of the Company’s total assets as of the end of last two completed fiscal years. A related person is any executive officer, director, nominee for director, or holder of 5% or more of the Company’s common stock, or an immediate family member of any of those persons.
On January 21, 2014, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with Auracana LLC, an entity owned by Glenn Kesner, our Secretary and the holder of the majority of our voting stock at the time, pursuant to which we sold to Auracana our wholly owned subsidiaries H-Hybrid Technologies, Inc., a Florida corporation, and RZ Acquisition Corp., a New York corporation. We sold the subsidiaries to Auracana for a purchase price of $1.00, in part, as compensation for Mr. Kesner’s prior services as an officer and director during the fiscal years ending December 31, 2010 and 2011. The terms and purchase price were not based upon an arm’s length negotiation and were determined arbitrarily in order to dispose of such businesses in connection with the plans to enter into the potash business, which was subsequently abandoned by the Company.
Between March 2014 and May 2014, Marlin Capital Investments, LLC, an entity affiliated with Barry Honig, a holder of 5% or greater of our securities at the time, loaned a total of $35,000 to the Company without interest.

On October 15, 2014, we entered into an exchange agreement with Sandor Capital Master Fund LP, who had purchased the $35,000 note from Marlin Capital Investments, LLC. Pursuant to the exchange agreement, Sandor Capital Master Fund LP exchanged the note and relinquished any and all other rights it may have pursuant to the note in exchange for 750,000 shares of our newly designated Series D Preferred Stock.
Also on October 15, 2014, the Company entered into a series of exchange agreements with Mr. Brauser, Mr. Honig and affiliates of Mr. Honig who had previously converted outstanding debentures but who were still owed unpaid interest on the debentures in the aggregate amount of $98,274. Pursuant to the exchange agreements, the holders exchanged the right to receive unpaid interest and relinquished any and all other rights they may have pursuant to the debentures in exchange for 4,250,000 shares of newly designated Series D Preferred Stock. Mr. Brauser exchanged $65,872 in outstanding interest for 2,125,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock and Mr. Honig and affiliated parties exchanged $32,402 in outstanding interest for an aggregate of 2,125,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock.
On December 10, 2014, the Company purchased certain contracts from Global Telesat Corp., a Virginia corporation (“GTC”) for $250,000 pursuant to an asset purchase agreement by and among the Company, its wholly owned subsidiary Orbital Satcom, GTC and World Surveillance Group, Inc. (“World”), GTC’s parent. Also on December 10, 2014, the Company, Orbital Satcom, GTC and World entered into a license agreement pursuant to which GTC granted to Orbital Satcom a fully-paid and irrevocable non-exclusive license to use certain equipment owned by GTC or its affiliates consisting of “appliques” in connection with the purchased contracts.

Orbital Satcom purchased an aggregate of approximately $114,000 of inventory from GTCL in January, February and March 2015.

On February 19, 2015, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement with GTCL and the GTCL Shareholders. Upon closing of the transactions contemplated under the share exchange agreement, the GTCL Shareholders transferred all of the issued and outstanding equity of GTCL to the Company in exchange for (i) an aggregate of 2,540,000 shares of the common stock of the Company and 8,746,000 shares of the newly issued Series E Preferred Stock of the Company with each share of Series E Preferred Stock convertible into ten shares of common stock, (ii) a cash payment of $375,000 and (iii) a one-year promissory note. The note has an original principal amount of $122,536, which is equal to the total cost of certain inventory owned by GTCL immediately prior to the share exchange, and shall be repaid from the sale of the inventory following closing. Mr. Phipps was a GTCL Shareholder and the sole director of GTCL. He received in exchange for his shares of GTCL 400,000 shares of the Company’s common stock and 6,692,000 shares of Series E Preferred Stock, and was paid the full cash payment and the full amount of the note. The Company also paid Mr. Phipps an additional $25,000 at closing as compensation for transition services previously provided by him to the Company in anticipation of the share exchange.
On February 19, 2015, Mr. Rector was issued 850,000 shares of common stock and a seven-year option to purchase shares of common stock.

The Company has paid an affiliated company of which Mr. Rector is the President, $24,000 and $15,000, for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Upon the closing of the share exchange with GTCL on February 19, 2015, Orbital Satcom entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Phipps (the “Phipps Employment Agreement”), whereby Mr. Phipps agreed to serve as the President of Orbital Satcom for a period of two years, subject to renewal, in consideration for an annual salary of $180,000.

Also on December 28, 2015, the Company entered into separate note purchase agreements with Michael Brauser, Intracoastal Capital LLC and the Honig affiliate relating to the issuance and sale of an aggregate of $605,000 in principal amount of original issue discount convertible notes (the “Notes”) for an aggregate purchase price of $550,000. The terms of the shares of Series F Preferred Stock (the “Preferred F Shares”) are set forth in the Certificate of Designation of Series F Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series F COD”) filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada. The Preferred F Shares are convertible into shares of common stock based on a conversion calculation equal to the stated value of such Preferred F Share divided by the conversion price. The stated value of each Preferred F Share is $0.50 and the initial conversion price is $0.50 per share, each subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations, combinations, subdivisions or other similar events. The Company is prohibited from effecting a conversion of the Preferred F Shares to the extent that, as a result of such conversion, such investor would beneficially own more than 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of the Preferred F Shares. Each Preferred F Share entitles the holder to vote on all matters voted on by holders of common stock as a single class. With respect to any such vote, each Preferred F Share entitles the holder to cast one vote per share of Series F Preferred Stock owned at the time of such vote subject to the 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation. Subject to certain specified exceptions, in the event the Company issues securities at a per share price less than the conversion price for a period of two years from the closing, each holder will be entitled to receive from the Company additional shares of common stock such that the holder shall hold that number of conversion shares, in total, had such holder purchased the Preferred F Shares with a conversion price equal to the lower price issuance.
The Notes mature on December 28, 2017. The Company must repay 1/24th of the principal of the Notes each month commencing January 18, 2016. The Notes do not bear interest except that all overdue and unpaid principal bears interest at a rate equal to the lesser of 18% per year or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. The Notes are convertible into common stock at the option of the holder at a conversion price of $1.00, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations, combinations, subdivisions or other similar events; provided however, that the principal and interest, if any, on the Notes may not be converted to the extent that, as a result of such conversion, the holder would beneficially own more than 4.99% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of common stock upon conversion of the Notes. Subject to certain specified exceptions, in the event the Company issues securities at a per share price less than the conversion price for a period of one year from the closing, each holder will be entitled to receive from the Company additional shares of common stock such that the holder shall hold that number of conversion shares, in total, had such holder purchased the Notes with a conversion price equal to the lower price issuance. $350,000 of the proceeds from the sale of Preferred F Shares and the Notes are intended to be utilized for public relations and expenses associated with publications, reports and communications with shareholders and others concerning the company's business. The subscription agreement provides the purchasers of the Preferred F Shares with a 100% right of participation in all future securities offerings of the Company, subject to customary exceptions.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors
Orbital Tracking Corp
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Orbital Tracking Corp and subsidiaries (formerly known as Great West Resources, Inc.) (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2015. Orbital Tracking Corp’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, 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. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Orbital Tracking Corp and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2015, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered losses from operations, which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2 of the financial statements. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

ORBITAL TRACKING CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization and Description of Business
Orbital Tracking Corp. (the “Company”) was formerly Great West Resources, Inc., a Nevada corporation. The Company is a provider of satellite based hardware, airtime and related services both in the United States and internationally. The Company’s principal focus is on growing the Company’s existing satellite based hardware, airtime and related services business line and developing the Company’s own tracking devices for use by retail customers worldwide.
A wholly-owned subsidiary, Orbital Satcom Corp. (“Orbital Satcom”), a Nevada corporation was formed on November 14, 2014.
On March 28, 2014, the Company merged with and into a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Great West”) solely for the purpose of changing its state of incorporation to Nevada from Delaware (the “Reincorporation”), effecting a 1:150 reverse split of its common stock, and changing its name to Great West Resources, Inc. in connection with the plans to enter into the business of potash mining and exploration. During late 2014 the Company abandoned its efforts to enter the potash mining and exploration business. All references in the audited consolidated financial statement and notes thereto have been retroactively restated to reflect the reverse stock split of 1:150.
On the effective date of the Merger:
(a) Each share of the Company’s Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective date changed and converted into 1/150th fully paid and non-assessable shares of Great West Common Stock;
(b) Each share of the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective date changed and converted into 1/150th fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Great West Series A Preferred Stock;
(c) Each share of the Company’s Series D Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective date changed and converted into 1/150th fully paid and non-assessable shares of the Great West Series B Preferred Stock;
(d) All options to purchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective date changed and converted into equivalent options to purchase 1/150th of a share of Great West Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.0001 per share;
(e) All warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective date changed and converted into equivalent warrants to purchase 1/150th of a share of Great West Common Stock at 150 times the exercise price of such converted warrants; and
(f) Each share of Great West Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Date were canceled and returned to the status of authorized but unissued Great West Common Stock.
The Company was originally incorporated in 1997 in Florida. On April 21, 2010, the Company merged with and into a wholly-owned subsidiary for the purpose of changing its state of incorporation to Delaware and changing its state of incorporation to Delaware, effecting a 2:1 forward split of its common stock, and changing its name to EClips Media Technologies, Inc. On April 25, 2011, the Company changed its name to Silver Horn Mining Ltd. pursuant to a merger with a wholly-owned subsidiary.

Discontinued Operations
The Company’s former operations were developing and manufacturing products and services, which reduce fuel costs, save power and energy and protect the environment. The products and services were made available for sale into markets in the public and private sectors. In December 2009, the Company discontinued these operations and disposed of certain of its subsidiaries, and prior periods have been restated in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements and related footnotes to conform to this presentation.
The remaining liabilities for discontinued operations are presented in the consolidated balance sheets under the caption “Liabilities of discontinued operation” and relates to the discontinued operations of developing and manufacturing of energy saving and fuel efficient products and services. The carrying amounts of the major classes of these liabilities as of December 31, 2015 and 2014 are summarized as follows:

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the statements of financial condition, and revenues and expenses for the years then ended. Actual results may differ significantly from those estimates. Significant estimates made by management include, but are not limited to, the assumptions used to calculate stock-based compensation, derivative liabilities, preferred deemed dividend and common stock issued for services.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when acquired to be cash equivalents. The Company places its cash with a high credit quality financial institutions. The Company’s account at this institution is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000. To reduce its risk associated with the failure of such financial institution, the Company evaluates at least annually the rating of the financial institution in which it holds deposits.
Accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts
The Company has a policy of reserving for questionable accounts based on its best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in its existing accounts receivable. The Company periodically reviews its accounts receivable to determine whether an allowance is necessary based on an analysis of past due accounts and other factors that may indicate that the realization of an account may be in doubt. Account balances deemed to be uncollectible are charged to the bad debt expense after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, there is no allowance for doubtful accounts.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Foreign Currency Translation
The Company’s reporting currency is US Dollars. The accounts of one of the Company’s subsidiaries is maintained using the appropriate local currency, (Great British Pound) GTCL as the functional currency. All assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. Dollars at balance sheet date, shareholders' equity is translated at historical rates and revenue and expense accounts are translated at the average exchange rate for the year or the reporting period. The translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, captioned as accumulated other comprehensive (loss) gain. Transaction gains and losses arising from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the statements of operations.
The relevant translation rates are as follows: for the year ended December 31, 2015 closing rate at 1.47373 US$: GBP, average rate at 1.52855 US$: GBP and for the year ended 2014 closing rate at 1.55763 US$: GBP, average rate at 1.64809 US$.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue from satellite services when earned, as services are rendered or delivered to customers. Equipment sales revenue is recognized when the equipment is delivered to and accepted by the customer. Only equipment sales are subject to warranty. Historically, the Company has not incurred significant expenses for warranties.
The Company’s customers generally purchase a combination of our products and services as part of a multiple element arrangement. The Company’s assessment of which revenue recognition guidance is appropriate to account for each element in an arrangement can involve significant judgment. This assessment has a significant impact on the amount and timing of revenue recognition.
Revenue is recognized when all of the following criteria have been met:
|
●
|
Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists. Contracts and customer purchase orders are generally used to determine the existence of an arrangement.
|
|
●
|
Delivery has occurred. Shipping documents and customer acceptance, when applicable, are used to verify delivery
|
|
●
|
The fee is fixed or determinable. We assess whether the fee is fixed or determinable based on the payment terms associated with the transaction and whether the sales price is subject to refund or adjustment
|
|
●
|
Collectability is reasonably assured. We assess collectability based primarily on the creditworthiness of the customer as determined by credit checks and analysis, as well as the customer’s payment history.
|
In accordance with ASC 605-25, Revenue Recognition — Multiple-Element Arrangements, based on the terms and conditions of the product arrangements, the Company believes that its products and services can be accounted for separately as its products and services have value to the Company’s customers on a stand-alone basis. When a transaction involves more than one product or service, revenue is allocated to each deliverable based on its relative fair value; otherwise, revenue is recognized as products are delivered or as services are provided over the term of the customer contract.
Cost of Product Sales and Services
Cost of sales consists primarily of materials, labor and overhead costs incurred internally and amounts incurred to contract manufacturers to produce our products, personnel and other implementation costs incurred to install our products and train customer personnel, and customer service and third party original equipment manufacturer costs to provide continuing support to our customers.

ORBITAL TRACKING CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Shipping and handling costs are included as a component of costs of product sales in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations because the Company includes in revenue the related costs that the Company bills its customers.
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market, using the first-in first-out cost method. The Company assesses the valuation of its inventories and reduces the carrying value of those inventories that are obsolete or in excess of the Company’s forecasted usage to their estimated net realizable value. The Company estimates the net realizable value of such inventories based on analysis and assumptions including, but not limited to, historical usage, expected future demand and market requirements. A change to the carrying value of inventories is recorded to cost of goods sold.
Prepaid expenses
Prepaid expenses amounted to $381,645 and $0 at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Prepaid expenses include prepayments in cash for accounting fees, prepayments in equity instruments and license fees which are being amortized over the terms of their respective agreements. The current portion consists primarily of costs paid for future services which will occur within a year. Prepaid expense current portion and long-term portion were $191,677 and $189,968, as of December 31, 2015.
Intangible assets
Intangible assets include customer contracts purchased and recorded based on the cost to acquire them. These assets are amortized over 10 years. Useful lives of intangible assets are periodically evaluated for reasonableness and the assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may no longer be recoverable.
Goodwill and other intangible assets
In accordance with ASC 350-30-65, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Others”, the Company assesses the impairment of identifiable intangibles whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.
Factors the Company considers to be important which could trigger an impairment review include the following:
●
|
Significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results;
|
●
|
Significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the strategy for the overall business; and
|
●
|
Significant negative industry or economic trends.
|
When the Company determines that the carrying value of intangibles may not be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more of the above indicators of impairment and the carrying value of the asset cannot be recovered from projected undiscounted cash flows, the Company records an impairment charge. The Company measures any impairment based on a projected discounted cash flow method using a discount rate determined by management to be commensurate with the risk inherent in the current business model. Significant management judgment is required in determining whether an indicator of impairment exists and in projecting cash flows. The Company did not consider it necessary to record any impairment charges during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 respectively.

Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are carried at historical cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is based on the estimated service lives of the depreciable assets and is calculated using the straight-line method. Expenditures that increase the value or productive capacity of assets are capitalized. Fully depreciated assets are retained in the property and equipment, and accumulated depreciation accounts until they are removed from service. When property and equipment are retired, sold or otherwise disposed of, the asset’s carrying amount and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in operations. Repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred.
The estimated useful lives of property and equipment are generally as follows:

Fair value of financial instruments
The Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. ASC 820 establishes a common definition for fair value to be applied to existing US GAAP that require the use of fair value measurements which establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about such fair value measurements.
ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Additionally, ASC 820 requires the use of valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. These inputs are prioritized below:
Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data
Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data, which require the use of the reporting entity’s own assumptions.
The following table presents a reconciliation of the derivative liability measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable input (Level 3) from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2015:

ORBITAL TRACKING CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Company did not identify any other assets or liabilities that are required to be presented on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value in accordance with the accounting guidance. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash, accounts payable, and accrued expenses approximate their estimated fair market value based on the short-term maturity of the instruments.
Stock Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of the Share-Based Payment Topic of ASC 718 which requires recognition in the consolidated financial statements of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award.
Pursuant to ASC Topic 505-50, for share-based payments to consultants and other third-parties, compensation expense is determined at the “measurement date.” The expense is recognized over the vesting period of the award. Until the measurement date is reached, the total amount of compensation expense remains uncertain. The Company initially records compensation expense based on the fair value of the award at the reporting date.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the provision of ASC 740-10, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“ASC 740-10”) which requires, among other things, an asset and liability approach to calculating deferred income taxes. The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is provided to offset any net deferred tax assets for which management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred asset will not be realized.
The Company follows the provision of ASC 740-10 related to Accounting for Uncertain Income Tax Positions. When tax returns are filed, there may be uncertainty about the merits of positions taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740-10, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions.
Tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold are measured at the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefit associated with tax positions taken that exceed the amount measured as described above should be reflected as a liability for uncertain tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination.
The Company believes its tax positions are all more likely than not to be upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for uncertain tax benefits.
The Company has adopted ASC 740-10-25, “Definition of Settlement”, which provides guidance on how an entity should determine whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits and provides that a tax position can be effectively settled upon the completion and examination by a taxing authority without being legally extinguished. For tax positions considered effectively settled, an entity would recognize the full amount of tax benefit, even if the tax position is not considered more likely than not to be sustained based solely on the basis of its technical merits and the statute of limitations remains open. The federal and state income tax returns of the Company are subject to examination by the IRS and state taxing authorities, generally for three years after they are filed.

Research and Development
The Company accounts for research and development costs in accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 730-10, Research and Development (“ASC 730-10”). Under ASC 730-10, all research and development costs must be charged to expense as incurred. Accordingly, internal research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Third-party research and development costs are expensed when the contracted work has been performed or as milestone results have been achieved. Company-sponsored research and development costs related to both present and future products are expensed in the period incurred. On February 19, 2015, the Company issued 1,000,000 of its common stock, par value $0.0001, at $0.05 per share, or $50,000, to a consultant as compensation for the design and delivery of dual mode gsm/Globalstar Simplex tracking devices and related hardware and intellectual property. We spent $50,000 and $0, respectively, in the fiscal years ending December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 on research and development.
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Comprehensive income is comprised of net income (loss) and all changes to the statements of stockholders’ equity. For the Company, comprehensive income for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 included net income and unrealized gains from foreign currency translation adjustments.
Earnings per Common Share
Net income (loss) per common share is calculated in accordance with ASC Topic 260: Earnings per Share (“ASC 260”). Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. The computation of diluted net loss per share does not include dilutive common stock equivalents in the weighted average shares outstanding as they would be anti-dilutive. In periods where the Company has a net loss, all dilutive securities are excluded.
The following are dilutive common stock equivalents during the year ended:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements—Going Concern.” The provisions of ASU No. 2014-15 require management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern by incorporating and expanding upon certain principles that are currently in U.S. auditing standards. Specifically, the amendments (1) provide a definition of the term substantial doubt, (2) require an evaluation every reporting period including interim periods, (3) provide principles for considering the mitigating effect of management’s plans, (4) require certain disclosures when substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of consideration of management’s plans, (5) require an express statement and other disclosures when substantial doubt is not alleviated, and (6) require an assessment for a period of one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued). The amendments in this ASU are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. The Company is currently assessing the impact of ASU No. 2014-15 on the Company’s consolidated financial statements once adopted.

ORBITAL TRACKING CORP. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption. The Company does not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to its financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.
NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN CONSIDERATIONS
The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. At December 31, 2015, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $2,011,483, working capital of approximately $505,149 and net loss of approximately $2,064,211 during the year ended December 31, 2015. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining additional capital and financing. Management intends to attempt to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering. While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that effect. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 3 – ORBITAL TRACKING CORP AND GLOBAL TELESAT COMMUNICATIONS LIMITED SHARE EXCHANGE, REVERSE ACQUISITION AND RECAPITALIZATION
On February 19, 2015, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Global Telesat Communications Limited, a Private Limited Company formed under the laws of England and Wales (“GTCL”) and all of the holders of the outstanding equity of GTCL (the “GTCL Shareholders”). Upon closing of the transactions contemplated under the Exchange Agreement the GTCL Shareholders (7 members) transferred all of the issued and outstanding equity of GTCL to OTC in exchange for (i) an aggregate of 2,540,000 shares of the common stock of the OTC and 8,746,000 shares of the newly issued Series E Convertible Preferred Stock of OTC with each share of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock convertible into ten shares of common stock, (ii) a cash payment of $375,000 and (iii) a one-year promissory note in the amount of $122,536. Such exchange caused GTCL to become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
For accounting purposes, this transaction is being accounted for as a reverse acquisition and has been treated as a recapitalization of Orbital Tracking Corp. with Global Telesat Communications Limited considered the accounting acquirer, and the financial statements of the accounting acquirer became the financial statements of the registrant. The completion of the Share Exchange resulted in a change of control. The Share Exchange was accounted for as a reverse acquisition and re-capitalization. The GTCL Shareholders obtained approximately 39% of voting control on the date of Share Exchange. GTCL was the acquirer for financial reporting purposes and the Orbital Tracking Corp. was the acquired company. The consolidated financial statements after the acquisition include the balance sheets of both companies at historical cost, the historical results of GTCL and the results of the Company from the acquisition date. All share and per share, information in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and footnotes has been retroactively restated to reflect the recapitalization. As part of agreement, OTC shareholders retained 5,383,172 shares of Common Stock, 20,000 shares of series A Convertible Preferred Stock, 6,666 shares of series B Convertible Preferred Stock, 1,197,442 shares of series C Convertible Preferred Stock and 5,000,000 shares of series D Convertible Preferred Stock.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
On December 28, 2015, the Company entered into separate note purchase agreements with accredited investors relating to the issuance and sale of an aggregate of $605,000 in principal amount of original issue discount convertible notes for an aggregate purchase price of $550,001.
The Notes mature on December 28, 2017. The Company must repay 1/24th or $25,208 of the principal of the Notes each month commencing January 18, 2016. The Notes do not bear interest except that all overdue and unpaid principal bears interest at a rate equal to the lesser of 18% per year or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. The Notes are convertible into 550,000 shares of common stock subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations, combinations, subdivisions or other similar events; provided however, that the principal and interest, if any, on the Notes may not be converted to the extent that, as a result of such conversion, the holder would beneficially own more than 4.99% of the number of shares of common stock. Subject to certain specified exceptions, in the event the Company issues securities at a per share price less than the conversion price for a period of one year from the closing, each holder will be entitled to receive from the Company additional shares of common stock such that the holder shall hold that number of conversion shares, in total, had such holder purchased the Notes with a conversion price equal to the lower price issuance.
Total amortization of debt discounts for the convertible debentures amounted to $2,486 and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and was included as amortization.
At December 31, 2015 and 2014, outstanding balance of convertible debentures was $605,000 and $0, respectively.

NOTE 11 – INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC Topic 740: Income Taxes which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for both the expected impact of differences between the financial statements and the tax basis of assets and liabilities, and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax losses and tax credit carry forwards. ASC Topic 740 additionally requires the establishment of a valuation allowance to reflect the likelihood of realization of deferred tax assets. The Company has a net operating loss carry forward for tax purposes totaling approximately $0.2 million at December 31, 2015, expiring through the year 2035. Internal Revenue Code Section 382 places a limitation on the amount of taxable income that can be offset by carry forwards after certain ownership shifts.
The table below summarizes the differences between the Company’s effective tax rate and the statutory federal rate as follows for the year ended December 31, 2015 and 2014:

The net operating losses were reduced from $9,824,400 at December 31, 2014 to 195,645 at December 31, 2015, due to a reverse merger and the Company changing business lines. Prior Compnay NOL's were lossed based on the above. After consideration of all the evidence, both positive and negative, management has recorded a full valuation allowance at December 31, 2015 and 2014, due to the uncertainty of realizing the deferred income tax assets. The valuation allowance was decreased by approximately $9,628,755.

NOTE 14 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES
In June 2008, a FASB approved guidance related to the determination of whether a freestanding equity-linked instrument should be classified as equity or debt under the provisions of FASB ASC Topic No. 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in an Entity’s Own Stock. The adoption of this requirement will affect accounting for convertible instruments and warrants with provisions that protect holders from declines in the stock price (“down-round” provisions). Warrants with such provisions are no longer recorded in equity and are reclassified as a liability.
Instruments with down-round protection are not considered indexed to a company’s own stock under ASC Topic 815, because neither the occurrence of a sale of common stock by the company at market nor the issuance of another equity-linked instrument with a lower strike price is an input to the fair value of a fixed-for-fixed option on equity shares.
In connection with the issuance of its 6% convertible debentures and related warrants, the Company has determined that the terms of the convertible warrants include down-round provisions under which the exercise price could be affected by future equity offerings. Accordingly, the warrants are accounted for as liabilities at the date of issuance and adjusted to fair value through earnings at each reporting date. The Company has recognized derivative liabilities of $4,355 and $0 at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The gain resulting from the decrease in fair value of this convertible instrument was $580 and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Weighted average term is 1.36 years.
The convertible notes are accounted for as liabilities at the date of issuance and adjusted to fair value through earnings at each reporting date. The Company has recognized derivative liabilities of $614,036 and $0 at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The loss resulting from the increase in fair value of this convertible instrument was $64,035 and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Weighted average term is 1.99 years.
