All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.  The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year.  

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s December 31, 2019 audited financial statements as reported in its Form 10-K, filed on August 3, 2020.

Nature of Operations

PCT LTD (formerly Bingham Canyon Corporation, (the “Company,” “PCT Ltd,” or “Bingham”), a Delaware corporation, was formed on February 27, 1986. The Company changed its domicile to Nevada on August 26, 1998. The Company acquires, develops and provides sustainable, environmentally safe disinfecting, cleaning and tracking technologies. The Company specializes in providing cleaning, sanitizing, and disinfectant fluid solutions and fluid-generating equipment that creates environmentally safe solutions for global sustainability.

Paradigm is located in Little River, SC and was formed June 6, 2012 under the name of EUR-ECA, Ltd. On September 11, 2015, its Board of Directors authorized EUR-ECA Ltd to file with the Nevada Secretary of State to change its name to Paradigm Convergence Technologies Corp. Paradigm is a technology licensing company specializing in environmentally safe solutions for global sustainability. The company holds a patent, intellectual property and/or distribution rights to innovative products and technologies. Paradigm provides innovative products and technologies for eliminating biocidal contamination from water supplies, industrial fluids, hard surfaces, food processing equipment, and medical devices. Paradigm’s overall strategy is to market new products and technologies through the use of equipment leasing, joint ventures, licensing, distributor agreements and partnerships.

Effective on February 29, 2018, the Company changed its name from Bingham Canyon Corporation to PCT LTD to more accurately identify the Company’s direction and to develop the complimentary relationship and association with its wholly-owned operating company, Paradigm Convergence Technologies Corporation (“Paradigm” or “PCT Corp.”).

Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no changes to the significant accounting policies of the Company from the information provided in Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company's most recent Form 10-K.

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted-average number of common shares and dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. As March 31, 2020, there were outstanding common share equivalents (options, warrants, convertible debt, preferred series A stock and preferred series C stock) which amounted to 669,955,797 shares of common stock. These common share equivalents were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements 

In August 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-13 (“ASU 2018-13”), Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, which modifies the disclosure requirements relating to fair value measurements as outlined in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement. ASU 2018-13 is applicable to all entities that are required, under GAAP, to make disclosures about recurring or nonrecurring fair value measurements. The amendments outlined in ASU 2018-13 are effective for all entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted for any removed or modified disclosures upon issuance of ASU 2018-13. The Company the adoption of ASU 2018-13 did not have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2. GOING CONCERN

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has limited assets, has an accumulated deficit of $37,057,215 and has negative cash flows from operations. As of March 31, 2020, the Company had a working capital deficit of $23,176,735. The Company has relied on raising debt and equity capital in order to fund its ongoing day-to-day operations and its corporate overhead. The Company will require additional working capital from either cash flow from operations, from debt or equity financing, or from a combination of these sources. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the issuance of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 3. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 consisted of the following: 

Depreciation expense was $6,153 and $5,884 for the three-months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

NOTE 4. INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Intangible assets at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 consisted of the following:

Amortization expense was $76,868 and $79,028 for the three-months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

The following table summarizes notes payable, related parties as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

The following table summarizes convertible notes payable as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

NOTE 6. DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES

The embedded conversion option of (1) the convertible debentures described in Note 5; (2) warrants; contain conversion features that qualify for embedded derivative classification. The fair value of the liabilities will be re-measured at the end of every reporting period and the change in fair value will be reported in the statement of operations as a gain or loss on derivative financial instruments.

Upon the issuance of the convertible notes payable described in Note 5, the Company concluded that it only has sufficient shares to satisfy the conversion of some but not all of the outstanding convertible notes, warrants and options. The Company elected to reclassify contracts from equity with the earliest inception date first. As a result, none of the Company’s previously outstanding convertible instruments qualified for derivative reclassification, however, any convertible securities issued after the election, including the warrants described in Note 9, qualified for derivative classification. The Company reassesses the classification of the instruments at each balance sheet date. If the classification changes as a result of events during the period, the contract is reclassified as of the date of the event that caused the reclassification.

The table below sets forth a summary of changes in the fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial liabilities.

The Company uses Level 3 inputs for its valuation methodology for the embedded conversion option and warrant liabilities as their fair values were determined by using the Binomial Model based on various assumptions. 

Significant changes in any of these inputs in isolation would result in a significant change in the fair value measurement. As required, these are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following table shows the assumptions used in the calculations:

The Company uses Level 3 inputs for its valuation methodology for the preferred series A stock liability as their fair values were determined by using the Binomial Model based on various assumptions. 

NOTE 7. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY (DEFICIT)

Preferred Stock

On February 7, 2020, the Company extinguished a promissory note and convertible note, including accrued interest through the issuance of 220,000 shares of preferred series C stock. The Company recorded the difference between the fair value of the preferred series C stock of $264,000 and the debt outstanding of $220,000 as a loss on extinguishment of debt of $44,000.

From March 16, 2020 through March 30, 2020, the Company sold 270,000 shares of preferred series C stock for proceeds of $270,000.

The preferred series C stock sold during the period contained a beneficial conversion feature as the conversion price was less than the fair value of the common stock which the instrument is convertible at the commitment date. During the three-months ended March 31, 2020, the intrinsic value of the 270,000 shares sold was $270,000. As the preferred series C stock are have no stated maturity date and are convertible at any time, the discount created in the preferred series C stock is fully amortized at issuance as a deemed dividend.

As of March 31, 2020, there were 490,000 shares of preferred series C stock issued and outstanding.

Common Stock

On January 1, 2019, the Company entered into a four-year employment agreement with F. Jody Read in his role as Chief Executive Officer.

During the period ended March 31, 2020, $17,092 of principal and $3,507 of interest of a convertible note payable was converted into 36,050,000 shares of the Company’s common stock as further described in Note 5(g).

On January 1, 2020, the Company issued 15,000,000 fully vested shares of the Company’s common stock to Gary J. Grieco, its President and CEO, pursuant to an employment agreement. The Company recorded the fair value of the common shares of $99,000 as stock-based compensation.

The following table summarizes the continuity of share purchase warrants:

As at March 31, 2020, the following share purchase warrants were outstanding:

*The number of warrants outstanding and exercisable is variable based on adjustments to the exercise price of the warrant due to dilutive issuances.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This document contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical fact are “forward-looking statements” for purposes of federal and state securities laws, including, but not limited to, any projections of earnings, revenue or other financial items; any statements of the plans, strategies and objectives of management for future operations; any statements concerning proposed new services or developments; any statements regarding future economic conditions or performance; any statements or belief; and any statements of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing.

Forward-looking statements may include the words “may,” “could,” “estimate,” “intend,” “continue,” “believe,” “expect” or “anticipate” or other similar words. These forward-looking statements present our estimates and assumptions only as of the date of this report. Accordingly, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the dates on which they are made. We do not undertake to update forward-looking statements to reflect the impact of circumstances or events that arise after the dates they are made. You should, however, consult further disclosures we make in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, future Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, our Annual Report on Form 10-K and Current Reports on Form 8-K.

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in any of our forward-looking statements are reasonable, actual results could differ materially from those projected or assumed in any of our forward-looking statements. Our future financial condition and results of operations, as well as any forward-looking statements, are subject to change and inherent risks and uncertainties. The factors impacting these risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to:

In this form 10-Q references to “PCT LTD”, “the Company”, “we,” “us,” “our” and similar terms refer to PCT LTD and its wholly owned operating subsidiary, Paradigm Convergence Technologies Corporation (“Paradigm”).

COVID-19

The current and potential effects of coronavirus may impact our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Actual or threatened epidemics, pandemics, outbreaks, or other public health crises could materially and adversely impact or disrupt our operations, adversely affect the local economies where we operate and negatively impact our customers’ spending in the impacted regions or depending upon the severity, globally, which could materially and adversely impact our business, results of operations and financial condition. For example, since December 2019, a strain of novel coronavirus (causing “COVD-19”) surfaced in China and has spread into the United States, Europe and most other countries of the world, resulting in certain supply chain disruptions, volatilities in the stock market, lower oil and other commodity prices due to diminished demand, massive unemployment, and lockdown on international travels, all of which has had an adverse impact on the global economy. There is significant uncertainty around the breadth and duration of the business disruptions related to COVID-19, as well as its impact on the U.S. economy. Moreover, an epidemic, pandemic, outbreak or other public health crisis, such as COVID-19, could adversely affect our ability to adequately staff and manage our business. The extent to which COVID-19 impacts our business, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, rapidly changing and cannot be predicted, including new information that may emerge concerning the severity of COVID-19 and the actions take to contain it or treat its impact.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Executive Overview

On August 31, 2016, PCT LTD entered into a Securities Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with Paradigm Convergence Technologies Corporation, a Nevada corporation (“Paradigm”). Pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement, Paradigm became the wholly-owned subsidiary of PCT LTD after the exchange transaction. PCT LTD is a holding company, which through Paradigm is engaged in the business of marketing new products and technologies through licensing and joint ventures.

PCT LTD had not recorded revenues for the two fiscal years prior to its acquisition of Paradigm and was dependent upon financing to continue basic operations. Paradigm has recorded revenue since it initiated operations in 2012; however, those revenues have not been sufficient to finance operations. The Company recorded a net loss of $10,281,648 for the three-months ended March 31, 2020 and accumulated losses of $37,057,215 from inception through March 31, 2020.

PCT LTD remains dependent upon additional financing to continue operations. The Company intends to raise additional financing through private placements of its common stock and note payable issuances. We expect that we would issue such stock pursuant to exemptions to the registration requirements provided by federal and state securities laws. The purchasers and manner of issuance will be determined according to our financial needs, as discussed below, and the available exemptions to the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933. We also note that if we issue more shares of our common stock, then our stockholders may experience dilution in the value per share of their common stock.

The expected costs for the next twelve months include:

Management projects these costs to total approximately $2,700,000. To minimize these costs, the Company intends to maintain its practice of controlling operating overheads with efficient facilities commitments, generally below market salaries and consulting fees, and rigorous prioritization of expenditure requirements. Based on its understanding of the commercial readiness of its products and technologies, the capabilities of its personnel (current and being hired), established business relationships and the general market conditions, management believes that the Company expects to be covering its fixed operating expenses (“burn rate”)by the end of the third quarter of 2020.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

A critical component of our operating plan impacting our continued existence is the ability to obtain additional capital through additional equity and/or debt financing. We do not anticipate generating sufficient positive internal operating cash flow until such time as we can deliver our products to market and generate substantial revenues, which may take the next full year to fully realize, if ever. In the event we cannot obtain the necessary capital to pursue our strategic plan, we may have to significantly curtail our operations. This would materially impact our ability to continue operations.

At March 31, 2020, the Company recorded a net loss of $10,281,648 and a working capital deficit of $23,176,735. While we have recently recorded an increase in the amount of revenues from operations, since inception and we had not established an ongoing source of revenue sufficient to cover our operating costs. During the three-months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 we primarily relied upon advances and loans from stockholders and third parties to fund our operations. The Company has relied on raising debt and equity capital in order to fund its ongoing day-to-day operations and its corporate overhead. We had $254,828 in cash at March 31, 2020, compared to $67,613 in cash at December 31, 2019. We had total liabilities of $23,586,409 at March 31, 2020 compared to $14,290,486 at December 31, 2019.

Our current cash flow is not sufficient to meet our monthly expenses of approximately $252,000 and to fund future research and development adequately. We intend to rely on additional debt financing, loans from existing stockholders and private placements of common stock for additional funding in addition to the increasing our recognized revenue from the leasing and/or sale of products; however, there is no assurance that additional funding will be available. We do not have material commitments for future capital expenditures. However, we cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain short-term financing, or that sources of such financing, if any, will continue to be available, and if available, that they will be on favorable terms.

During the next 12 months we anticipate incurring additional costs related to the filing of Exchange Act reports. We believe we will be able to meet these costs through funds provided by management, significant stockholders and/or third parties. We may also rely on the issuance of our common stock in lieu of cash to convert debt or pay for expenses.

Commitments and Obligations

At March 31, 2020 the Company recorded notes payable totaling approximately $2,417,124 (related, non-related and convertible, net of debt discount) compared to notes payable totaling $2,482,743 (related, non-related and convertible, net of debt discount) at December 31, 2019. These notes payable represent cash advances received and expenses paid from third parties and related parties. All of the notes payable carry effective interest from 0% to 585% and are due ranging from on demand to February 14, 2022.

The Company headquarters and operations is located in Little River, South Carolina. The South Carolina lease payment was to $4,800 per month through November 30, 2019. The building was sold and the Company is on a month-to-month lease with the new Landlord, while negotiating a new annual lease, which will likely include monthly lease payments of $7,500/month.

Results of Operations

Revenues increased to $272,182, for the three-months ended March 31, 2020 (the “2020 first quarter”) compared to $195,957 for the three-months ended March 31, 2019 (the “2019 first quarter”). The revenue increase for the period was due to the increased volume of fluids sold and the additional revenue from recurring leased-equipment income.

Total operating expenses decreased to $780,657 during the 2020 first quarter compared to $824,530 during the 2019 first quarter. The decrease during the first quarter of 2020 was primarily due to a decrease in general and administrative expenses due to lack of available funding. This was offset by an increase in cost of product, licensing, and equipment leases associated with increased revenue, and increased stock-based compensation.

General and administrative expenses decreased to $548,786 for the 2020 first quarter compared to $666,964 during the 2019 first quarter. The decrease during the first quarter of 2020 was primarily due to a decrease in consulting and salary expenses offset by an increase in stock-based compensation.

Depreciation and amortization expenses decreased slightly to $83,021 during the 2020 first quarter compared to $84,912 during the 2019 first quarter. Depreciation and amortization was comparable between the two periods.

Total other expenses increased to $9,773,173 for the 2020 first quarter compared to $291,750 during the 2019 first quarter. The overall increase was a result of an increase in interest expense and loss on change in fair value of derivatives.

As a result of the changes described above, net loss from operations after income taxes increased to $10,281,648 during the 2020 first quarter compared to $920,323 during the 2019 first quarter.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have not entered into any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources and would be considered material to investors.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.

We regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements. A complete summary of these policies is included in the notes to our financial statements. In general, management’s estimates are based on historical experience, on information from third party professionals, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Not applicable to smaller reporting companies.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our filings under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC. This information is accumulated to allow our management to make timely decisions regarding required disclosure. F. Jody Read, our Chief Executive Officer, who serves as our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. The disclosure controls and procedures ensure that all information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is: (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rule and forms; and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our principal executive officer as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer concluded that as of March 31, 2020, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.  

Notwithstanding this finding of ineffective disclosure controls and procedures, we concluded that the consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q present fairly, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the quarter ended March 31, 2020, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934).

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

On January 1, 2019, the Company entered into a four-year employment agreement with F. Jody Read in his role as Chief Executive Officer.

During the period ended March 31, 2020, $17,092 of principal and $3,507 of interest of a convertible note payable was converted into 36,050,000 shares of the Company’s common stock as further described in Note 5(g).

On March 31, 2020, the Company issued 250,000 shares of common stock pursuant to a loan agreement. The Company recorded the fair value of the common shares of $8,225 in interest expense.

Subsequent Issuances After Quarter-End

On April 21, 2020, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of common stock to an employee of the Company for cash proceeds of $10,000.

On April 24, 2020, the Company issued 2,750,000 shares of common stock for cash proceeds of $110,000.

On May 5, 2020, the Company consolidated the three notes described in Notes 5 into a new note with a principal amount of $118,644 and a maturity date of May 5, 2021. The note bears interest at 8% per annum and in connection with the consolidation the Company issued the lender 15,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.

On June 24, 2020, 50,000 shares of preferred series C stock was converted into common stock (1 share converts into 100 shares of common stock), resulting in the issuance of 5,000,000 shares of common stock.

On July 6, 2020, the Company entered into a consulting agreement. Pursuant to the agreement the consultant will provide investor relations services for a period of one year in consideration for $3,000 per month and the issuance of 1,000,000 common shares of the Company.

On July 8, 2020, the Company entered into a consulting agreement. Pursuant to the agreement the consultant will provide business development and introductory services for a period of five years in consideration for the issuance of 1,000,000 common shares of the Company and a 5% commission, paid in shares, for any investments brokered.

All of the above-described issuances were exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) and/or Regulation D of the Securities Act as transactions not involving a public offering. With respect to each transaction listed above, no general solicitation was made by either the Company or any person acting on its behalf. All such securities issued pursuant to such exemptions are restricted securities as defined in Rule 144(a)(3) promulgated under the Securities Act, appropriate legends have been placed on the documents evidencing the securities and may not be offered or sold absent registration or pursuant to an exemption therefrom.

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

We did not repurchase any of our equity securities during the quarter ended March 31, 2020.

ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

We have entered into a number of promissory notes, some of which are in default as of March 31, 2020, or went into default before the filing of this Quarterly Report (See Note 5 to the financial statements).

A significant portion of our current debt is in default, which may subject us to litigation by the debt holders.

As of March 31, 2020, we only had cash and cash equivalents of $254,828 and had a significant amount of short-term debt in default. The short-term debt agreements provide legal remedies for satisfaction of defaults, including increased interest rates, default fees and other financial penalties. As of the date of this Annual Report none of the lenders have pursued their legal remedies, although several lenders have sent us demand letters. Management’s plan is to raise additional funds in the form of debt or equity in order to continue to fund losses until such time as revenues are able to sustain the Company. To date, the main source of funding has been through the issuance of convertible notes with provisions that allow the holder to convert the debt and accrued and unpaid interest at substantial discounts to the trading price of our common stock. The effect of the conversions in the year ended December 31, 2019 and first quarter ended March 31, 2020 for the convertible notes has been to substantially dilute existing holders of common stock of our Company. However, there is no assurance that management will be successful in being able to continue to obtain additional funding or defend potential litigation by note holders.
