The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes contained elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Certain statements made in this discussion are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

 

You should read this entire Annual Report carefully, including “Risk Factors,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and our consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Annual Report, before making an investment decision.

 

The Company’s principal executive offices are located at 1111 Belt Line Road, Suite 108E, Garland, TX 75040 and our telephone number is: (877) 465-8080. Any information on, or that may be accessed through, any websites (other than government websites) is not incorporated by reference into this Annual Report and should not be considered a part of this Annual Report. The Company is a publicly traded company subject to quotation on the OTC and our Common Stock is traded under the symbol “MMMM.” On April 14, 2023 the closing sale price of the Common Stock on the OTC was $0.03 per share.

 

The Company is a “smaller reporting company,” as defined by applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) pursuant to § 229.10(f)(1), in the Securities Act of 1933. As such, we are eligible for exemptions from various reporting requirements applicable to other public companies that are not smaller reporting companies, including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation. We will remain a smaller reporting company until we have a public offering, or value attributable to stock held by non-affiliates, of at least $250 million, as measured on the prior March 31st.

 

The Company, serving as a holding company, conducts its business through its two operating subsidiaries: (i) NuAxess 2, Inc. (“NuAxess”); (ii) PR345, Inc., n/k/a OpenAxess, Inc. (“OpenAxess”);

 

NuAxess is engaged in providing a full spectrum of consulting and staffing business services related to employee benefits, insurance, and financial services, principally to smaller and mid-sized employers. The Company and its subsidiaries are offering innovative alternatives to legacy companies that have dominated the benefit, financial and insurance landscape for decades. Through various means and using technology that promotes providing employees and their dependents with multiple levels of benefits including major medical health insurance, as well as providing financial and business consulting services. The Company has entered into third-party agreements with select strategic partners to provide comprehensive programs administered through its contracted vendor relationships. The Company offers its programs via platforms that include technology innovations and sponsoring affordable major medical health insurance plans and other employee benefit products and services. The NuAxess Smart Healthcare Plan (NSP) is a proprietary self-insured health plan that is an ERISA-qualified plan, and includes wellness and prevention programs and employee health saving accounts, among other features. The NSP promotes complete transparency of provider costs and claims data with shared savings programs, as well. The Company’s primary markets are small and mid-size group employers, sometimes referred to as the ‘gig’ economy.

 

Through its employer of record (EOR) staffing companies and its use of contracted professional employer organization (PEO) services and its proprietary health saving account administration, the Company can provide employers and their employees with invaluable aggregated HIPAA aggregated compliant data that can be used to analyze and evaluate healthcare services used to support the Company’s medical reinsurance stop-loss risk taking business via captive reinsurance companies. The Company’s services are designed to support a transparent, single administrative program that is comprehensive and easy to manage by employers, and employees encompassing comprehensive human resources (HR) and even payroll services that includes workers’ compensation insurance, risk and compliance controls, medical stop loss reinsurance, health savings account administration, financial services, real-time employee healthcare support, Cafeteria 125 IRC Section 105 and 106 programs, and employee and employer retirement benefit programs mostly through the use of employee owned health saving accounts (HSA). The NuAxess Smart Healthcare plan embraces the national effort to provide mental health parity in major medical comprehensive health insurance coverages and, for example, through the use of its tele-mental behavioral health programs, we believe that many new and innovative methods are now available and will be developed to better treat opioid addiction, PTSD, suicide prevention, and increase adherence to mental health treatment protocols as well as lessen the percentage of patient appointment no-shows all producing better outcomes for patients. Many experts say this has become a critical area since the government mandated COVID-19 shut-downs and pandemic related job losses has occurred.

 

OpenAxess f/k/a PR 345, Inc. is a staffing business that developed its competitive partially self-insured major medical plans to offer employees for their comprehensive medical insurance benefits replacing fully insured medical plans. OpenAxess utilizes the Cigna network of providers, a medical stop-loss coverage plans from a A.M.Best rated insurance carrier and can utilize PEO services when required. OpenAxess has been providing benefits to employees for several years and has been developing proprietary technology to support its members. Through OpenAxess successful self-funded plan program that are ERISA based, the Company was able to further develop its other subsidiary NuAxess 2, Inc.’s proprietary NuAxess Smart Healthcare Plan (NSP) and it resulted in NuAxess joint venturing with a national PEO company called Infiniti HR, Inc. in 2019. The joint venture companies are called PrimeAxess, Inc., and PrimeAxess 2, Inc. and they will primarily promote the use of NuAxess Smart Healthcare Plan and HSA for Infiniti HR clients both old and new. NuAxess Smart Healthcare Plans can be also be used for larger employee groups that wish to be the plan administrator under a single employer trust. PrimeAxess can be also be used as a staffing company should the joint venture decide to promote it as such.

New Business Developments

 

Our Business Strategy

 

The Company, through its subsidiaries and joint venture partners, believes that existing market conditions and the lack of sufficient affordable major medical comprehensive health insurance products and services for small and mid-sized employers and the growing number of participants in the gig-economy should enable the Company to successfully market its health insurance related products and services and a variety of third-party products and services to employers, employees and disparate classes of workers who are classified as small group and today many describe as the growing ‘gig’ economy essential workers. The primary emphasis of the Company is to provide support, using state of the art technology, to employers and employees to facilitate access and achieve a sustainable way to provide their employees quality comprehensive major medical health insurance programs and services that comply with local, state, and federal regulations. Using Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA), a U.S. federal statute that protects the retirement assets of Americans by establishing rules to prevent fiduciaries from misuse of plan assets, and through partially self-funded/level funded health insurance plans, small employers, that historically have not used or been able to use traditional health insurance plans from the status quo legacy carriers can actually benefit from self-insurance, as large group employers have benefitted for decades.

 

It is widely recognized that 80% or more of small group employers, because of an historic lack of alternatives, still must use traditional fully-insured health insurance plans issued by the legacy carriers despite the higher premium costs that have nearly doubled since 2010, during which time plan benefits were reduced and deductibles, copays, coinsurance rose. Conversely, more than 90% of large group employers use ERISA qualified health plans and not fully insured legacy carrier health plans. Despite the small group employer market needs and the size of this market in annual premiums paid, which is estimated at $377 billion annually and comprises approximately 60 million workers and growing. The small group employer market is not adequately equipped either financially or through its management’s lack of experience, to properly use and exploit existing ERISA health plans notwithstanding their acknowledged needs, in part because of the complexities in compliance with applicable rules, regulations and laws. We also believe that to implement many of these self-insured ERISA programs, our target market lacks staffing and experience in utilizing new technology platforms that typically require highly trained personnel to effectively implement and operate the actual tasks involved to administer these self-insured health plans.

 

As a result, the Company has developed and, since the beginning of the second fiscal quarter of 2020 has been operating its business plan providing its growing target market with a full range of affordable major medical healthcare plans, technology, financial, and insurance related services. While there can be no assurance of our continued ability to successfully enroll in a timely fashion a sufficient percentage of our target market and begin to generate profitable sustainable operations by providing full-service insurance and benefit solutions with the quality necessary to maintain health benefits and insurance for its employees while minimizing financial risk associated with catastrophic medical claims, except through the use of medical stop loss reinsurance policies offered by A.M. Best rated carriers. It is generally recognized that small group employers do not have the financial capabilities to fund catastrophic liability risks so their use of medical stop-loss reinsurance is mandatory.

 

The medical stop-loss reinsurance business is a complex global industry and, at its most basic level, is simply liability catastrophic insurance rather than medical insurance. The Company through its third-party strategic joint venture partners, e.g., Third Party Administrators ( TPA), Plan Benefit Administrators ( PBA), technology developers, provider services, financial institutions, Infiniti HR, Inc .a national professional employer organization (PEO) and others, have developed a comprehensive benefits and self-insurance system and possesses the experience and skills necessary to medically underwrite employee lives, pay medical claims, and place medical stop-loss reinsurance coverages for its ERISA compliant health plans developed specifically for the small group employer market and gig economy. The medical health insurance plans covering these workers are classified as comprehensive major medical health insurance plans with reinsurance stop-loss coverage to safeguard against catastrophic losses when they occur. The Company’s management has determined not to implement as part of its services nor recommend the use of short-term medical plans, indemnity plans, and minimum essential coverage (MEC) plans as alternatives nor as solutions for small employers to give up using major medical comprehensive insurance plans because using other alternatives than major medical plans: (i) short-term medical plans, indemnity plans, and minimum essential coverage plans requires small employers and their employees to bear the risk should a catastrophic risk occur; and (ii) these plans are typically financially capped benefit policies that will not pay above the cap amount. The single main reason for bankruptcy filings in the United States is the result of indebtedness resulting from health and medical claims/charged regardless of whether the bankruptcy filer had some form of health insurance coverage or none.

 

It is important to note that over the past decade many small group employers and employees, in addition to purchasing health insurance from legacy carriers Blue Cross, Aetna, Anthem, Cigna, United Health, and other regional fully insured carriers (often referred to collectively as “BUCA”), are also deciding to purchase additional health coverages that are indemnity plans and not comprehensive major medical plans. These plans generally pay benefits the BUCA plans don’t or won’t cover, e.g., hospitalization, accident, and critical illness plans, dental and vision plans and all are NOT comprehensive major medical health insurance plans, but rather they only cover defined medical event costs associated with ever increasing high deductible medical plan limits that major medical plan coverages impose. Indemnity plans are being marketed to many that use the Affordable Care Act plans AKA ObamaCare plans.

The Company believes that by being able to provide comprehensive major medical health insurance program solutions for the small group employer market from one source, such as the Company, is a benefit offered by the Company to its target market which, the Company believes, will positively respond for its services. The main reasons for the Company’s belief in its ability to penetrate this target market is the fact that historically, more than 80% of small group employers have been forced to use non-competitive high-cost traditional major medical health plans at unsustainable high premium rate costs with ever-increasing member high deductible limits, that uses coinsurance, copays, and often provide less benefit coverages, especially mental health and Rx/drug formularies and limited provider networks. Our strategy has been to develop and provide transparency to health insurance benefits that includes: (i) a consumer driven health care model with value-based health plans that share financial rewards with our members and their providers; (ii) use prevention and wellness programs that complement our major medical health plans and use when possible using pre-tax dollars to pay for these services; (iii) provide tax free funding directly, indirectly and even through third parties to each employees qualified high deductible health plans health saving accounts (HSA), and ( iv) an open access provider network without punitive use of out of network providers. The Company’s focus and primary emphasis is to assist the small group employer market fund employee HSA which, despite considerable tax advantages and benefits to employers and employees have since their inception in 2004 by the US Congress been largely ignored by the BUCA’s. HSA have not been well funded despite more that 50 million employees owning HSA qualified health plans. Annual HSA contribution limits in 2019 were set at $3,500 for single employee plans and $7,000 for a family plan. Presently, legislation before the U.S. House of Representatives, if and when Congress brings to the floor and then requires U.S. Senate passage, of which there can be no assurance notwithstanding the change in Administration, proposes to double the annual contribution limits bringing HSA closer in line with 401-K annual contribution limits.

 

The Company has implemented several new sales and marketing programs to directly reach the small group employer market largely through its use of third-party staffing and support staffing companies. At the same time, the Company is furthering its plan to build and operate its own staffing business, which the Company estimates could take up to a year to implement at a cost expected to exceed several million dollars or more. As BUCA health insurance premium costs have risen substantially over the past decade and deemed unsustainable for small group employers, there is increased interest in supporting the known but misunderstood self-insurance major medical health benefits for the small group employer market making the Company’s timing to go to market very timely.

 

In order to successfully compete with the BUCAs, of which there can be no assurance, the Company benefit plans offering self-insured health plans and enhanced member support and customer service through strategic partnerships with innovative technology platforms that incorporate products and services under a single administrative team. The key elements based upon management’s experience, in determining which sales channels and markets to pursue are dependent on our continued ability to contract with third party vendors that provide our products and services and will commit resources in offering our products and services to their clients. The Company has already commenced sales and is continuing to pursue known targeted small group employer markets in the States of Texas, Florida, and many southern states whose laws and regulations favor our business strategy of competing with the established legacy carriers Blue Cross, Aetna, Anthem, Cigna and United Health (BUCAs), and other regional fully insured health insurance carriers.

 

The Company continues to target rural communities in those same states which must rely, to a large extent, on rural hospitals to attract and maintain economic growth which are having difficulties operating and where some hospitals have been and/or are planned to be closed. While we are yet to close specific projects related to this plan, the Company will continue to pursue its plans to create, in conjunction with rural hospitals, ‘community health exchanges’ whereby the hospitals contract with the Company to provide benefit and insurance services through its establish its staffing alternatives. Through the Company staffing it becomes the employer of record and staffs local employees and provide all their necessary employee services including major medical health insurance, payroll, HR, and financial programs.

 

We believe, but cannot be assured, that a substantial opportunity to sell and brand our services with rural hospitals should help to keep rural hospitals from closing. The Company is developing an Account Receivable (A/R) funding program for rural hospital where it can purchase BUCA and CMS claims receivables. The Company has had preliminary discussions with several funding sources interested in an A/R program since these medical receivables are deemed investment grade paper. Unless a suitable funding source can be found and contracted the A/R program cannot become reality as the Company doesn’t have adequate financial resources itself.

The Company believes that there exists a critical need for small business employers to be able to offer quality and sustainable employee benefits, especially with millennials, principally as a result of the fact that the federal government has not produced effective and affordable new health insurance programs for America’s small businesses. Since the 2008 financial crisis, small businesses have also been adversely affected by the fact that the banking institutions and particularly the large banks have not been providing small business employers with access to capital and credit markets. We believe that this lack of reliable credit and access to capital resources has resulted in the inability of small businesses to innovate and grow, which we believe is essential for small businesses to grow at a time that the American economy to continues to show signs of strength. Without access to adequate debt and/or equity capital, it is widely understood that small businesses have had to rely on their cash flow to manage their largest expenses which specifically include payroll, taxes and employee benefits, the latter of which has become increasingly unsustainable. The Company’s objective is to provide and facilitate the availability to small businesses of employee benefits and health insurance at manageable costs to reduce the unsustainable annual increases.

 

Despite the fact that in many states existing insurance and labor laws and regulations are more than adequate to support small group employers to self-insure their benefit and health insurance programs, the fact remains that the virtual monopoly of the large and established legacy carriers’ monopoly has had the effect of stifling alternative insurance and employee benefit solutions. The Company’s management believes that its innovative small employer benefits, self-insurance, and financial services programs are now market ready and provide substantial advantages not offered by established major insurance carriers and employee benefits managers that are not focusing on the small group employer/business market and gig economy workers which we firmly believe is and will increasingly be grow and dominate the economic landscape for decades to come. It is estimated that on an annual basis, small group employer annual premiums have exceeded $375 billion during the past several years, which we believe may be one of the largest markets lacking consumer/customer involvement and lacking transparency and competition. Our business plan is to service this market with transparency, providing small group employer market, largely through its use of third-party staffing and support staff companies, and directly through the Company’s own staffing business as it develops offer a sustainable full-service benefits and major medical health insurance solution to the gig economy workers.

 

Employees

 

The Company has 18 full-time employees, including its Chairman, CEO and Interim CFO, none of whom are under employment agreements. From time to time, the Company uses independent contractors and contract services for administrative functions such as legal, sales, IT, accounting, clerical, and bookkeeping services and expects to do so for the foreseeable future, until it generates positive cash flow from operations, of which there can be no assurance.

 

Government Regulations

 

The Company’s health insurance and employee benefits activities and financial services are subject to extensive federal, state and, to a lesser extent, local regulations. Each of the 50 States in the U.S. has adopted, by state statutes, laws and regulations, including those by the applicable State Departments of Insurance, Labor, Treasury, Health, Secretaries of State, among others. State laws and regulations govern health insurance and the issuance of insurance licensing to entities that offer medical and health insurance, sell health insurance and to otherwise provide insurance to the public, except for certain federal laws. The two most significant federal laws affecting health insurance and overriding state law are the Federal 1974 ERISA law and the passage by Congress in 2010 of the Affordable Care Act.( ObamaCare) However, state laws are so embedded and protected that despite the past fifty years of America’s industrial growth as the largest world economy, relatively few companies, given the size of the U.S. economy, are licensed to offer health insurance to businesses under the laws of the 50 states, without any meaningful oversight nor being subject to federal Sherman Act rules and regulations dealing with monopolistic practices. Furthermore, the Company believes that state law does not consider insurance companies to be deemed national enterprises subject to potential anti-trust regulations. In fact, more than thirty state licensed Blue Cross-Blue Shield companies, many of which are classified as not for profit entities, are deemed to exist as separate entities under each state jurisdiction, and therefore are not considered a monopoly.

Potential Advantages for the Company

 

The complexity of insurance regulations and lack of transparency to businesses in general and small businesses in particular, often require small and even mid-sized business to require outside professional assistance, which the Company believes presents the Company with the ability to enter the market and be successful in providing the requisite professional assistance. For the small group businesses who utilize federal ERISA law and with the technology advances that have developed for consumers via the internet revolution and smart phones, the Company believes that it is now an opportune time for innovation and change being offered by the Company’s insurance and employee benefits programs, providing the potential of compete successfully with the BUCA’s and for small group employers to switch from fully insured plans to self-insured plans. With the creation of the health saving account (HSA) in 2004, health and wealth can be driven when consumers drive health care with their money. Providers must be paid fair, fast and transparently and only consumers can accomplish this goal. Government cannot realistically or affordably displace 160,000,000 American workers from their private health insurance but it can encourage and support a private system where consumers are joined with their chosen doctors and have access to their medical records and can use pretax dollars for health expenses and save dollars tax advantaged for their retirement using employee-owned HSA. Notwithstanding the Company’s belief in its potential advantages and ability to successfully enter and generate profits operation in its target market, larger companies with significantly longer operating histories and far greater financial resources may enter this target market and offer services at rates more competitive than those offered by the Company.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” and our consolidated financial statements, related notes, and other financial information appearing in this Annual Report. In addition to historical consolidated financial information, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates, and beliefs that involve significant risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those discussed below and elsewhere in this Annual Report, particularly in “Risk Factors” and “Forward-Looking Statements.”

 

Overview

 

The Company, through its two wholly owned operating subsidiaries, NuAxess and PR345 n/k/a OpenAxess, Inc., business, is engaged in providing a full spectrum of benefit and insurance related staffing and business consulting services, principally to smaller and mid-sized employers, offering innovative means of providing their employees with multiple levels of employee benefits including major medical health insurance, as well as providing other financial and business consulting services. The Company has entered into third-party agreements with select strategic partners to provide comprehensive programs administered through its vendor relationship agreements. The Company offers programs that include innovative and affordable major medical health insurance plans and other employee benefit products and services. The NuAxess Smart Healthcare Plan is a proprietary health plan that is an ERISA-qualified, self-insured plan, that includes wellness and prevention programs, among other features. Our primary markets are small and mid-size group employers, sometimes referred to as the ‘gig’ economy.

 

Results of Operations

 

Comparison of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 to the fiscal ended December 31, 2021

 

Revenue

 

During the year ended December 31, 2022 the Company received $51,892,679 in revenue principally from staffing and business consulting services and we incurred $52,699,339 in expense directly related to this revenue compared to $51,898,202 in revenue and $49,734,441 during the year ended December 31, 2021

Expenses

 

Operating expenses for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 were $5,935,412 compared to $ 6,151,782 for the same period of the prior year.

 

Working Capital

 

The Company’s net loss for the years ended December 31, 2022 and Deember 31, 2021 were $4,212,053 and $17,896,673, respectively. decrease in net loss for fiscal year 2022, as compared to fiscal year 2022, is due primarily to an increase in revenue and decrease in general and administrative expenses.

 

During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 and 2022, our principal sources of liquidity included cash received from convertible notes payable, notes payable, and sales of preferred stock. We intend to use new capital in the form of new equity or debt to further advance business objectives.

 

Net cash produced by operating activities totaled $356,570 compared to a use of $3,216,501 for the years ending December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The change between 2022 and 2021 is primarily due to lower net losses, increases in accounts payables, increases in accrued expenses, offset by revaluation of derivative liabilities.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $160,312 and $3,072,240 for the years ending December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The change between 2022 and 2021 is primarily attributed to an decrease in proceeds from notes payable in 2022, as compared to 2021. The cash however increased to $836,495 at December 31, 2022 from $319,613 at December 31, 2021.

 

As reflected in our accompanying financial statements, other than the cash received from the issuance of notes payable and convertible notes during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, we have negative working capital, and an accumulated deficit of $35,034,310 and $30,908,777 for the years ending December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Notwithstanding our belief that we will be able to continue to raise capital through the issuance of equity and, to a reduced level if at all, convertible notes, the Company believes that it will be able to raise the requisite amount of equity capital at terms and condition acceptable to the Company, of which there can be no assurance, these factors indicate that we may be unable to continue in existence in the absence of receiving additional funding.

 

In addition to our operating expenses which average approximately $494,000 per month, management’s plans for the next twelve months include approximately $4 million of cash expenditures for development and expansion of our health insurance and employee benefits business operations. While there can be no assurance, the Company believes that it will be able to generate sufficient capital from operations, equity and/or debt financing to fully-implement its business plan of offering principally to smaller and mid-sized employers a full spectrum of employee benefit and insurance services enabling employers to offer a variety of plans providing their employees with multiple levels of benefits including major medical health insurance, as well as providing financial and business consulting services.

 

Dividend Policy

 

We have never declared or paid, and do not anticipate declaring or paying, any cash dividends on any of our capital stock. We do not anticipate paying any dividends in the foreseeable future, and we currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings for use in the operation of our business and to finance the growth and development of our business. Future determinations as to the declaration and payment of dividends, if any, will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on then-existing conditions, including our operating results, financial condition, contractual restrictions, capital requirements, business prospects and other factors our board of directors may deem relevant. Our loan agreements limit our ability to pay dividends or make other distributions or payments on account of our common stock, in each case subject to certain exceptions.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Recent accounting pronouncements which may affect the Company are described in Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, subsection “New Accounting Requirements and Disclosures” in the annual financial statements below.

 

Limitations on Liability and Indemnification Matters

 

We intend to amend our Bylaws to contain provisions that limit the liability of our current and former directors for monetary damages to the fullest extent permitted by Idaho law. Any limitation of liability pursuant to Idaho law does not apply to liabilities arising under federal securities laws and does not affect the availability of equitable remedies such as injunctive relief or rescission.

 

Our amended Bylaws will further authorize us to indemnify our directors, officers, employees, and other agents to the fullest extent permitted by Idaho law. We intend our amended bylaws also to provide that, on satisfaction of certain conditions, we will advance expenses incurred by a director or officer in advance of the final disposition of any action or proceeding, and permit us to secure insurance on behalf of any officer, director, employee, or other agent for any liability arising out of his or her actions in that capacity regardless of whether we would otherwise be permitted to indemnify him or her under the provisions of Idaho law. We expect to enter into agreements to indemnify our directors, executive officers, and other employees as determined by the board of directors. With certain exceptions, these agreements will provide for indemnification for related expenses including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, and settlement amounts incurred by any of these individuals in any action or proceeding. We believe that these amended bylaw provisions and indemnification agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers.

 

The intended limitation of liability and indemnification provisions in our amended Bylaws may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against our directors for breach of their fiduciary duty. They may also reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation against our directors and officers, even though an action, if successful, might benefit us and other stockholders. Further, a stockholder’s investment may be adversely affected to the extent that we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against directors and officers as required by these indemnification provisions.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted for directors, executive officers, or persons controlling us, we have been informed that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Quad M Solutions, Inc.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Quad M Solutions, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2022, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022, and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Going Concern Matter

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has a working capital deficit, has generated net losses since its inception and further losses are anticipated. The Company requires additional funds to meet its obligations and the costs of its operations. These factors 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. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

Critical Audit Matters

 

Critical audit matters are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgements. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

Consolidated Notes to Financial Statements

 

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

Quad M Solutions, Inc. (“the Company”), f/k/a Mineral Mountain Mining & Milling Company, was incorporated under the laws of the State of Idaho on August 4, 1932 for the purpose of mining and exploring for non-ferrous and precious metals, primarily silver, lead and copper. Until April 16, 2019, the Company had two wholly owned subsidiaries, Nomadic Gold Mines, Inc., an Alaska corporation, and Lander Gold Mines, Inc., a Wyoming corporation (the “MMMM Mining Subsidiaries”).

 

On March 22, 2019 the Company entered into two separate Share Exchange Agreements pursuant to which it agreed to acquire 100% of the capital stock of two newly organized private entities, NuAxess 2, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and PR345, Inc., a Texas corporation n/k/a OpenAxess, Inc., in consideration for the issuance of 400,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock, issued to the control shareholders of each of NuAxess and PR345, n/k/a OpenAxess and 400,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock, issued to the minority, non-control shareholders of the two entities.

 

The closing of the two Share Exchange Agreements occurred on April 16, 2019, at which date NuAxess and PR345 became wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company. In addition, on April 16, 2019, the Company sold 75% of its equity interests in the MMMM Mining Subsidiaries for $10, to Aurum, LLC, a newly organized Nevada corporation (“Aurum”) formed and controlled by Sheldon Karasik, the Company’s former CEO, Chairman and a principal shareholder, for the purpose of entering into the MBO Agreement and operating the Company’s formerly wholly-owned Mining Subsidiaries. In addition, Aurum assumed all of the liabilities of the MMMM Mining Subsidiaries. Reference is made to Recent Developments-Former MMMM Mining Subsidiaries under Note 3 – Former Mining Operations, and Note 6 – Share Exchange and Assignment Agreement, below.

 

On May 13, 2019, the Company filed a Definitive Information Statement on Schedule 14C for the purpose of implementing the following corporate actions: (i) the increase in the authorized shares of common stock from 100 million shares to 900 million shares (the “Authorized Common Stock Share Increase”); and (ii) change the name of the Company from Mineral Mountain Mining & Milling Company to Quad M Solutions, Inc. (the “Name Change”).

 

On June 7, 2019, the Company filed Articles of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Idaho effecting the Name Change. On June 14, 2019 the Company filed Articles of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Idaho effecting the Authorized Common Stock Share Increase. In addition, effecting the Authorized Common Stock Share Increase. In addition, on July 19, 2019, the Company obtained the requisite approval from FINRA for the Name Change.

 

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

This summary of significant accounting policies of Quad M Solutions, Inc and its two wholly owned subsidiaries is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The consolidated financial statements incorporate the accounts of Quad M Solutions, Inc and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accounts have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”).

 

F-7
Table of Contents

 

Accounting Method

 

The Company’s financial statements are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Earnings (Losses) Per Share

 

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Fully-diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the sum of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and the additional common shares that would have been outstanding if potential common shares had been issued. Potential common shares are not included in the computation of fully diluted earnings per share if their effect is anti-dilutive.

 

Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers cash, certificates of deposit, and debt instruments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

 

Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities known to exist as of the date the financial statements are published, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Uncertainties with respect to such estimates and assumptions are inherent in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements; accordingly, it is possible that the actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions and could have a material effect on the reported amounts of the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

 

The Company had a set of convertible notes that had warrants with down round features and there have been events which have triggered recognition of the down round features. The accounting recognition of these features involved significant estimates by the Company management.

 

The accounting recognition of the triggered down round features, which have the same accounting effect as a “dividend”, cumulatively reduced retained earnings by $1,575,068.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company’s financial instruments as defined by ASC 825-10-50, include cash, receivables, accounts payable and accrued expenses. All instruments are accounted for on a historical cost basis, which, due to the short maturity of these financial instruments, approximates fair value at September 30, 2021 and 2020.

 

The standards under ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. FASB ASC 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

 

Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

 

Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

 

Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little of no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

 

At December 31, 2022 and 2021 the Company did not have any assets measured at fair value other than cash and deposits. At December 31, 2022 and 2021 the Company had conversion features embedded in its convertible notes payable.

Going Concern

 

As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has incurred cumulative operating losses since inception. As of December 31, 2022, the Company has limited financial resources with which to achieve its objectives and attain profitability and positive cash flows from operations. As shown in the accompanying balance sheets and statements of operations, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $35,034,310.

 

Achievement of the Company’s objectives will depend on its ability to obtain additional financing, to generate revenue from current and planned business operations, and to effectively operating and capital costs.

 

The Company plans to fund its future operations by potential sales of its common stock or by issuing debt securities. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to generate sufficient equity and/or debt capital at terms and conditions satisfactory of the Company.

 

Provision for Taxes

 

Income taxes are provided based upon the liability method of accounting pursuant to ASC 740-10-25 Income Taxes – Recognition. Under the approach, deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end. A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets if management does not believe the Company has met the “more likely than not” standard imposed by ASC 740-10-25-5 to allow recognition of such an asset. See Note 5.

 

New Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company has evaluated the authoritative guidance issued subsequent to December 31, 2022 and does not expect the adoption of these standards to have a material effect on its financial position or results of operations.

 

NOTE 3 – SHARE EXCHANGE AND ASSIGNMENT AGREEMENT

 

On April 16, 2019, the Company entered into a Share Exchange and Assignment Agreement (the “MBO Agreement”) with Aurum, LLC (“Aurum”), a newly formed Nevada corporation organized by Sheldon Karasik, the Company’s former CEO, Chairman and a principal shareholder for the purpose of acquiring 75% of the capital stock of the MMMM Mining Subsidiaries from the Company for cash consideration of $10 plus the assumption by Aurum of all of the liabilities of the Mining Subsidiaries. On the date of closing of the MBO Agreement, the Company made a payment of $100,000 to Aurum, which proceeds were to be used by Aurum to fund the operations of the MMMM Mining Subsidiaries. The MBO Agreement also required the Company to allocate a portion of the proceeds received by the Company under the Crown Bridge Equity Line, if any, to pay Aurum for the operations of the MMMM Mining Subsidiaries, among other terms and conditions. In connection with the MBO Agreement, Aurum assumed all of the liabilities of the MMMM Mining Subsidiaries, which were disclosed to the Company as totaling approximately $96,673. As a result of this transaction, a loss of $403,327 was recorded.

ITEM 9. CHANGES AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

 

None. Reference is made the Company’s Forms 8-K filed on December 6, 2021 with respect to the appointment of our independent auditors, Hudgens CPA PLLC.

 

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

We are evaluating, developing and implementing “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, 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. We continue to conduct an evaluation (the “Evaluation”), under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), who also serves on an interim basis as our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (“Disclosure Controls”) as of the end of the period covered by this report pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act. Based on this continuing Evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer has concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of the identification of a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting which is identified below in Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, which we view as an integral part of our disclosure controls and procedures.

 

Changes in Internal Control

 

We have also evaluated our internal control over financial reporting, and there have been no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect those controls as of September 30, 2021.

 

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

 

Our management, including our CEO, does not expect that our Disclosure Controls and internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management or board override of the control.

 

The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

 

CEO/CFO Certifications

 

Appearing immediately following the Signatures section of this report there are Certifications of the CEO, who also serves as interim CFO. The Certifications are required in accordance with Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the Section 302 Certifications). This Item of this report, which you are currently reading is the information concerning the Evaluation referred to in the Section 302 Certifications and this information should be read in conjunction with the Section 302 Certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.

 

Management’s Annual 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 Exchange Act.

 

The management of the Company assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in SEC guidance on conducting such assessments. Based on this assessment, management determined that, during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021, our internal controls and procedures require improvement due to deficiencies in the design or operation of the Company’s internal controls. Management identified the following areas of improvement in internal controls over financial reporting:

 

1. The Company did not have a written internal control procedurals manual which outlines the duties and reporting requirements of the Directors and any staff to be hired in the future. This lack of a written internal control procedurals manual does not meet the requirements of the SEC or good internal controls.

 

2. The Company should improve maintenance and access to a centralized location for current and historical business records.

Table of Contents

 

Management believes that areas of improvement set forth in items 1 and 2 above did not have an effect on the Company’s financial results. The Company and its management will endeavor to correct the above noted weaknesses in internal controls once it has adequate funds to do so.

 

Management will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls and procedures and its internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and are committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.
