NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MARCH 31, 2019

TransBiotec, Inc. (“TransBiotec – DE”), formerly Imagine Media LTD., was incorporated August, 2007 in the State of Delaware. A corporation also named TransBiotec, Inc. (“TransBiotec – CA”) was formed in the state of California July 4, 2004. Effective September 19, 2011 TransBiotec - DE was acquired by TransBiotec - CA in a transaction classified as a reverse acquisition as the shareholders of TransBiotec - CA retained the majority of the outstanding common stock of TransBiotec - DE after the share exchange. The financial statements represent the activity of TransBiotec - CA from July 4, 2004 forward, and the consolidated activity of TransBiotec - DE and TransBiotec - CA from September 19, 2011 forward. TransBiotec - DE and TransBiotec - CA are hereinafter referred to collectively as the "Company" or “We”. The Company has developed and plans to market and sell a non-invasive alcohol sensing system which includes an ignition interlock. The Company has not generated any revenues from its operations.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) as promulgated in the United States of America and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2018, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 17, 2019.

In management’s opinion, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (including reclassifications and normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position for the three month period ended March 31, 2019 and for the year ended December 31, 2018, and results of operations and cash flows for the three month period ended March 31, 2019 and for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its majority owned subsidiary, TransBiotec-CA. We have eliminated all intercompany transactions and balances between entities consolidated in these unaudited condensed financial statements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Specifically, such estimates were made by the Company for the valuation of derivative liability and beneficial conversion feature expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

TransBiotec, Inc.

Cash

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less as cash equivalents. The Company does not have any cash equivalents as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Income Tax

The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740. Under ASC 740 deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss carry forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. The Company has not recorded any deferred tax assets or liabilities at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.

Net Loss Per Share

The basic and fully diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding.

Financial Instruments 

Pursuant to ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures and ASC 825, Financial Instruments, an entity is required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 and 825 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 and 825 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1

Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2

Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets: quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

Level 3

Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

TransBiotec, Inc.

The following table presents assets and liabilities that are measured and recognized at fair value as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

Beneficial Conversion Features

From time to time, the Company may issue convertible notes that may contain an embedded beneficial conversion feature. A beneficial conversion feature exists on the date a convertible note is issued when the fair value of the underlying common stock to which the note is convertible into is in excess of the remaining unallocated proceeds of the note after first considering the allocation of a portion of the note proceeds to the fair value of the warrants, if related warrants have been granted. The intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature is recorded as a debt discount with a corresponding amount to additional paid-in capital. The debt discount is amortized to interest expense over the life of the note using the effective interest method.

TransBiotec, Inc.

The fair value of derivative instruments is recorded and shown separately under current liabilities. Changes in fair value are recorded in the consolidated statement of operations under other income (expense).

The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company record the embedded conversion option at its fair value as of the inception date of the agreement and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. Any change in fair value is recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense for each reporting period 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. As a result of entering into warrant agreements, for which such instruments contained a variable conversion feature with no floor, the Company has adopted a sequencing policy in accordance with ASC 815-40-35-12 whereby all future instruments may be classified as a derivative liability with the exception of instruments related to share-based compensation issued to employees or directors. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses a Monte Carlo Simulation model to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instruments are initially recorded at their fair values and are then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the consolidated statements of operations.

Stock-based Compensation

Stock-based compensation cost to employees is measured by the Company at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and over the requisite service period under ASC718. For options issued to employees, the Company recognizes stock compensation costs utilizing the fair value methodology over the related period of benefit. Grants of stock to non-employees and other parties are accounted for in accordance with the ASC 505-50 “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees”.

Minority Interest (Noncontrolling Interest)

A subsidiary of the Company has minority members representing ownership interests of 1.38% at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The Company accounts for these minority, or noncontrolling interests, pursuant to ASC 810-10-65 whereby gains and losses in a subsidiary with a noncontrolling interest are allocated to the noncontrolling interest based on the ownership percentage of the noncontrolling interest, even if that allocation results in a deficit noncontrolling interest balance.

TransBiotec, Inc.

The Company accounts for its research and development costs pursuant to ASC 730, whereby it requires the Company to disclose the amounts of costs for company and customer-sponsored research and development activities, if material. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. The Company incurred research and development costs as it acquired new knowledge to bring about significant improvements in the functionality and design of its SOBR product. Research and development costs were none during the three month period ended March 31, 2019 and $8,855 during the three month period ended March 31, 2018.

Related Parties

Related parties are any entities or individuals that, through employment, ownership or other means, possess the ability to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of the Company.

New Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires a lessee to recognize most leases on its balance sheet. For leases with terms of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. This lease standard was effective for public business entities for periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The standard’s modified retrospective transition approach will require entities to reflect the effect to reflect the effect in the earliest year presented in the financial statements. The Company has adopted this standard; however, during the three-month period ended March 31, 2019 the Company had one lease identified as an operating lease with a term of less than 12 months, and therefore elected not to recognize the lease on its balance sheet.

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Scope of Modification Accounting, clarifies Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, which requires a company to apply modification accounting to changes in the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award unless all of the following criteria are met: (1) the fair value of the modified award is the same as the fair value of the original award immediately before the modification. The ASU indicates that if the modification does not affect any of the inputs to the valuation technique used to value the award, the entity is not required to estimate the value immediately before and after the modification; (2) the vesting conditions of the modified award are the same as the vesting conditions of the original award immediately before the modification; and (3) the classification of the modified award as an equity instrument or a liability instrument is the same as the classification of the original award immediately before the modification. The ASU is effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company has decided to adopt this standard; however, during the three month period ended March 31, 2019 the Company currently does not have any modifications to existing stock compensation agreements but will be able to calculate the impact of the ASU, if and when modifications arise.

TransBiotec, Inc.

In March 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-05, Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118. The amendments in this update provide guidance on when to record and disclose provisional amounts for certain income tax effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("Tax Reform Act"). The amendments also require any provisional amounts or subsequent adjustments to be included in net income from continuing operations. Additionally, this ASU discusses required disclosures that an entity must make with regard to the Tax Reform Act. This ASU is effective immediately as new information is available to adjust provisional amounts that were previously recorded. The Company has decided to adopt this new standard; however, the Company currently has no revenue and only net operating loss carryforwards that result in a tax benefit during the three month period ended March 31, 2019. The Company also has no deferred tax assets (offset in full by a valuation allowance) or tax liabilities on its balance sheet as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, Compensation—Stock Compensation: Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This update is intended to reduce cost and complexity and to improve financial reporting for share-based payments issued to non-employees (for example, service providers, external legal counsel, suppliers, etc.). The ASU expands the scope of Topic 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation, which currently only includes share-based payments issued to employees, to also include share-based payments issued to non-employees for goods and services. Consequently, the accounting for share-based payments to non-employees and employees will be substantially aligned. The standard will be applied in a retrospective approach for each period presented. The Company has adopted this standard for the year ended December 31, 2018. The Company made no share-based payments to non-employees for services rendered or goods received during the three month period ended March 31, 2019.

TransBiotec, Inc.

The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a working capital deficit and stockholders' deficit, and in all likelihood, will be required to make significant future expenditures in connection with continuing marketing efforts along with general and administrative expenses. As of March 31, 2019, the accumulated deficit is $18,400,425, a cash balance of $1,148, carrying loans of principal and interest in default totaling $1,313,544, current notes payable and interest of $1,451,193 and cash outflows from operating activities of $111,691. These principal conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, indicate it is probable that the entity will be unable to meet its obligations as they become due within one year after the date the financial statements are issued. As such, there is substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern.

On May 25, 2017, the Company increased their number of unauthorized shares from 100,000,000 to 800,000,000 as they hope to raise additional capital through the sale of its equity securities, through an offering of debt securities, or through borrowings from financial institutions or others, and debt restructure (conversion of debt to equity). By doing so, the Company further hopes to generate revenues from sales of its alcohol sensing and ignition lock systems. The Company is currently engaged in talks with potential sales reps, funding sources, and manufacturers.

The Company is also considering opportunities to create synergy with its SOBR product. On October 29, 2018, the Company entered into a non-binding Letter of Intent (“LOI”) with First Capital Holdings, LLC (“FCH”). The LOI sets forth the terms under which the Company could potentially acquire certain assets related to robotics equipment from FCH in exchange for shares of their common stock equal to 60% of our then outstanding common stock on a fully-diluted basis. The LOI is non-binding and subject to various conditions that must be met in order for the parties to close the transaction, including, but not limited to, (i) the Company being current in its reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (ii) the Company completing a reverse stock split of its common stock such that approximately 8,000,000 shares will be outstanding immediately prior to closing the transaction with no convertible instruments other than as set forth herein, (iii) the Company having no more than $125,000 in outstanding debt, all in the form of convertible notes that mature in two years post-closing and are convertible into shares of TransBiotec common stock at $2.00 per share; (iv) FCH completing any necessary audits and reviews of the financial statements related to the assets by a PCAOB-approved independent registered accounting firm, and (v) the parties executing definitive documents related to the potential transaction. On March 6, 2019, the parties entered into an amendment No. 1 to the LOI in order to extend certain dates in the LOI namely : (i) the date for the parties to complete initial due diligence was moved to March 29, 2018 (ii) the date for the parties to execute definitive agreements related to the transaction was moved to May 6, 2019, and (iii) the date to close the transaction was tentatively moved to August 31, 2019 (the “Amendment No.1”). On May 6, 2019, TransBiotec, Inc. (“The Company” or “TransBiotec” and “Buyer”) entered into an asset purchase agreement with IDTEC, LLC (“Seller”) in which TransBiotec agreed to acquire the Seller’s rights, title and interest to and in certain assets. The aggregate purchase price for the purchased assets shall be 12 million (12,000,000) restricted shares of the $0.00001 par value common stock of the Buyer; provided that the total number of shares of TransBiotec’s $0.00001 par value common stock issued and outstanding following a tentative closing date of January 6, 2020 shall not exceed 20 million (20,000,000) shares (on a fully dilated basis).

TransBiotec, Inc.

NOTE 3. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In May 2011, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Bennington which expired on December 31, 2017. The employment agreement provided that the Company would pay Mr. Bennington a salary of $120,000 during the first year of the agreement, $156,000 during the second year of the agreement, $172,000 during the third year of the agreement, $190,000 during the fourth year of the agreement and $208,000 during the fifth year of the agreement. Since the Company was unable to compensate him as stipulated per the agreement, Mr. Bennington agreed to drop his yearly compensation, and resulting yearly accrual, to $120,000 per year with no yearly increases as stipulated in years 2 through 5. In September 2016, before the expiration of Mr. Bennington’s contract, the Company appointed Ivan Braiker as its sole CEO, and Mr. Bennington subsequently took a role as a member of the Board of Directors at a monthly rate of $5,000. In connection with his appointment, Mr. Braiker entered into a letter agreement with the Company, under which he accrued a monthly retainer of $7,500, to be paid only if the Company successfully closed financing of at least $200,000. Mr. Braiker was also granted options to purchase 1,500,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.0045 per share at a fair value of $6,290. In an act of good faith by the Company, Mr. Braiker was paid $15,000 in 2017 in relation to his letter agreement. Effective with his resignation on December 31, 2017, the Company did not owe, accrue for or pay Mr. Braiker any further compensation as he was unable to secure financing of $200,000 for the Company as stipulated per the letter agreement. Mr. Braiker was not compensated for his services as a member of our Board of Directors.

As of March 31, 2019, and December 31, 2018, the Company had payables due to officers for accrued compensation and services of $474,156 and $474,156, respectively, recorded as related party payables on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Due to cash flow constraints, the Company has experienced difficulty in compensating our directors for their service in their capacity as directors; therefore, such directors may receive stock options to purchase common shares as awarded by our Board of Directors or (as to future stock options) a compensation committee which may be established. Directors are entitled to reimbursement for reasonable travel and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with business related travel and attendance at meetings of our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors may award special remuneration to any director undertaking any special services on our behalf other than services ordinarily required of a director.

TransBiotec, Inc.

On July 1, 2015, the Company amended the December 3, 2014 note payable agreement with Lanphere Law Group, a related party and the Company’s largest shareholder, which forgave $108,000 of the note payable’s principal balance. This debt forgiveness brought down the original principal balance on the note of $214,334 to a new principal balance of $106,335, and a related party gain of $108,000 was recorded to additional paid-in capital. This amendment also extended the note payable’s due date to December 2, 2015; however, this note is currently in default.

On March 8, 2017, Lanphere Law Group, a related party and the Company’s largest shareholder, irrevocably elected to exercise warrants in order to acquire 32,248,932 shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for an aggregate exercise price of $112,871, which was used for the deduction of $74,672 of principal and $38,199 of accrued interest related to the December 3, 2014 note payable agreement with Lanphere Law Group. The principal balance of the note after the debt deduction was $31,662. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the principal balance of this note was $31,662 and $31,662, respectively. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the accrued interest on this note was $7,119 and $5,539, respectively. The forgiveness of the note payable principal of $74,672 was recorded to equity and the $38,199 of related accrued interest was recorded to equity. After this exercise, Lanphere Law Group still owns warrants to acquire an additional 21,400,734 shares of our common stock.

The Company entered into a lease agreement with Lanphere Law Group, a related party and the Company’s largest shareholder, whereas the Company is the tenant and is paying monthly rent of $4,100. The term of this operating lease runs from July 1, 2015 to June 30, 2019. As of July 1, 2019, the Company leases the same office space on a month to month basis. Rent expense, including CAM charges, for the three month period ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 of $13,105 and $13,105, respectively, was recorded to general and administrative expense.

TransBiotec, Inc.

RELATED PARTIES

The Company has four convertible notes payable to related parties that have a principal balance of $91,000 and $91,000 as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. These notes carry interest rates ranging from 7% - 9% and have due dates ranging from 1/23/2014 - 4/8/2015. All four notes are currently in default and carry a default interest rate of 10%. These notes carry conversion prices ranging from $0.0072 - $0.0800 per share. The Company evaluated these convertible notes and determined that, for the embedded conversion option, there was a beneficial conversion value to record. The beneficial conversion feature was amortized over the life of the notes, one year, and was fully amortized at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018. No beneficial conversion feature expense was incurred during the three month period ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.

The Company has ten non-convertible notes payable to related parties that have a principal balance of $343,700 and $343,700 as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. These notes carry interest rates ranging from 0% - 10% and have due dates ranging from 8/03/2012 - 7/23/2016. Nine of the ten notes are currently in default and carry a default interest rate of 10%.

The Company has twenty-nine notes payable with detached free-standing warrants to related parties that have a principal balance of $315,894 and $271,144 as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. These notes carry interest rates ranging from 7% - 10% and have due dates ranging from 8/05/2015 - 03/30/2020. Twenty-two of the twenty-nine notes, carrying a total principal balance of $236,144, are currently in default and carry a default interest rate of 10%. The exercise price for each note payable detached free-standing warrant ranges from $0.0018664652 - $0.0160. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, these notes carried outstanding detached free-standing warrants of 34,535,165 and 23,953,003, respectively. The unamortized discount related to these warrants at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 is $23,757 and $8,074, respectively. During the three month period ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, stock warrants amortization expense recorded to interest expense was $6,982 and $9,694, respectively. The reason for the decrease in stock warrants expense was directly related to the timing of funds borrowed and the related amortization of its stock warrants. The fair market value of stock warrants granted during the three month period ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 was $22,665 and $10,958, respectively. The fair market value of the outstanding stock warrants was calculated utilizing the Black-Sholes method using the following assumptions: risk free rates ranging between 1.03% - 2.67%, dividend yield of 0%, expected life of 5 years, volatility between 143% - 177%.

TransBiotec, Inc.

Total interest expense for related party notes was $20,805 and $19,188 for the three month period ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

NON- RELATED PARTIES

The Company has sixteen convertible notes payable to non-related parties that have a principal balance of $172,136 and $143,136 as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. These notes carry interest rates ranging from 5% - 30% and have due dates ranging from 2/08/2012 - 5/23/2019. Fourteen of the sixteen notes, carrying a total principal balance of $137,136, are currently in default and carry a default interest rate of 10%. These notes carry conversion prices ranging from $0.0017- $0.3235688 per share. On March 1, 2019, the Company entered into a convertible note payable agreement that converts to its common stock at a variable conversion price. As further discussed in Note 5 – Derivative Liability, the Company analyzed the conversion features of the note agreement for derivative accounting consideration under ASU 2017-11 (ASC 815-15 Derivatives and Hedging), and determined the embedded conversion features should be classified as a derivative because the exercise price of the convertible note is subject to a variable conversion rate. The Company evaluated these convertible notes and determined that, for the embedded conversion option, there was a beneficial conversion value to record.

Total interest expense for non-related party notes was $13,670 and $12,005 for the three month period ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

NOTE 5. DERIVATIVE LIABILITY

On March 1, 2019, the Company borrowed $29,000 under a convertible promissory note agreement from an unrelated party that is due upon demand from the investor. The note bears interest at a rate of 10% per annum and is convertible into the Company’s common shares at a variable conversion price based on a 50% discount of the market price at an undetermined future date. The Company analyzed the conversion features of the note agreement for derivative accounting consideration under ASU 2017-11 (ASC 815-15 Derivatives and Hedging), and determined the embedded conversion features should be classified as a derivative because the exercise price of the convertible note is subject to a variable conversion rate and should be therefore accounted for at fair value under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures and ASC 825, Financial Instruments. In accordance with ASC 815-15, the Company has bifurcated the conversion feature of the note and recorded a derivative liability.

TransBiotec, Inc.

A summary of the activity of the derivative liability is shown below:

NOTE 6. STOCK WARRANTS AND STOCK OPTIONS

The Company accounts for employee stock options and non-employee stock warrants under ASC 718 and ASC 505, whereby option costs are recorded based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable, utilizing the Black Sholes pricing model. Unless otherwise provided for, the Company covers option exercises by issuing new shares.

Beginning on December 12, 2012, Michael A. Lanphere, a related party and non-employee, loaned the Company money for a variety of purposes, some for working capital and some to allow the Company to pay outstanding obligations. Each of these loans was made pursuant to the terms of a Loan Agreement with Promissory Note and Stock Fee (the “Agreements”). Under the terms of the Agreements, Mr. Lanphere was not only entitled to repayment of the principal amount loaned to us, with interest, but also what was termed in the Agreements as a “Stock Fee” that the parties are interpreting as a stock warrant, which permits Mr. Lanphere to acquire shares of our common stock in exchange for an exercise price that was estimated based on the date of the loan agreement. The number of shares to be issued to Mr. Lanphere as a Stock Fee under each Agreement was an estimate and varied based on the loan amount and the price of our common stock on the day of the loan and was calculated by this formula: sixty percent (60%) or eighty percent (80%) of the loan amount divided by the Company’s stock price on the day of the loan, but at a price per share no higher than two and one-half cents ($0.025). Each Stock Fee is fully vested immediately and expires five (5) years from the date of the loan. Although the Stock Fee could be taken by Mr. Lanphere as a stock grant or a stock warrant, due to the fully vested nature of the Stock Fee, Mr. Lanphere is deemed to beneficially own those shares on the date of each Agreement. The number of warrants outstanding to Mr. Lanphere at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 are 21,400,745 and 10,818,583, respectively.

On November 20, 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a class of stock designated as preferred stock with a par value of $0.00001 per share comprising 25,000,000 shares, 3,000,000 shares of which were classified as Series A Convertible Preferred stock. In each calendar year, the holders of the Series A Convertible Preferred stock are entitled to receive, when, as and if, declared by the Board of Directors, out of any funds and assets of the Company legally available, non-cumulative dividends, in an amount equal to any dividends or other Distribution on the common stock in such calendar year (other than a Common Stock Dividend). No dividends (other than a Common Stock Dividend) shall be paid and no distribution shall be made with respect to the common stock unless dividends shall have been paid or declared and set apart for payment to the holders of the Series A Convertible Preferred stock simultaneously. Dividends on the Series A Convertible Preferred stock shall not be mandatory or cumulative, and no rights or interest shall accrue to the holders of the Series A Convertible Preferred stock by reason of the fact that the Company shall fail to declare or pay dividends on the Series A Convertible Preferred stock, except for such rights or interest that may arise as a result of the Company paying a dividend or making a distribution on the common stock in violation of the terms. The holders of each share of Series A Convertible Preferred stock then outstanding shall be entitled to be paid, out of the Available Funds and Assets, and prior and in preference to any payment or Distribution (or any setting part of any payment or Distribution) of any Available Funds and Assets on any shares of common stock, and equal in preference to any payment or Distribution (or any setting part of any payment or Distribution) of any Available Funds and Assets on any shares of any other series of preferred stock that have liquidation preference, an amount per share equal to the Original Issue Price of the Series A Convertible Preferred stock plus all declared but unpaid dividends on the Series A Convertible Preferred stock. A reorganization, or any other consolidation or merger of the Company with or into any other corporation, or any other sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, shall not be deemed a liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company. Shares of the Series A Convertible Preferred stock are convertible at a 35% discount rate to the average closing price per share of the Company’s common stock (either as listed on a national exchange or as quoted over-the-market) for the last fifteen (15) trading days immediately prior to conversion. However, no conversions of the Series A Convertible Preferred stock to shares of common stock can occur unless the average closing price per share of the Corporation’s common stock (either as listed on a national exchange or as quoted over-the-market) for the last fifteen (15) trading days immediately prior to conversion is at least five cents ($0.05). The shares of Series A Convertible Preferred stock vote on an “as converted” basis. The right of conversion is limited by the fact the holder of the Series A Convertible Preferred stock may not convert if such conversion would cause the holder to beneficially own more than 4.9% of the Company’s common stock after giving effect to such conversion.

As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company has 1,388,575 issued shares of its Series A Convertible Preferred stock.

During the three month ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, no dividends have been declared for holders of the Series A Convertible Preferred stock.

ITEM 2 Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Disclaimer Regarding Forward Looking Statements

Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operations contains not only statements that are historical facts, but also statements that are forward-looking. Forward-looking statements are, by their very nature, uncertain and risky. These risks and uncertainties include international, national and local general economic and market conditions; demographic changes; our ability to sustain, manage, or forecast growth; our ability to successfully make and integrate acquisitions; raw material costs and availability; new product development and introduction; existing government regulations and changes in, or the failure to comply with, government regulations; adverse publicity; competition; the loss of significant customers or suppliers; fluctuations and difficulty in forecasting operating results; changes in business strategy or development plans; business disruptions; the ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; the ability to protect technology; and other risks that might be detailed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").

Although the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report reflect the good faith judgment of our management, such statements can only be based on facts and factors currently known by them. Consequently, and because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, the actual results and outcomes may differ materially from the results and outcomes discussed in the forward-looking statements. You are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in this report and in our other reports as we attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations and prospects.

Overview

We have developed an alcohol detection device called “SOBR”, for which we are still performing beta testing. The device is a patented system for use in detecting alcohol in a person’s system by measuring the ethanol content in their perspiration. Once SOBR is developed and tested, we plan to market the device to four primary business segments: (i) as an aftermarket-installed device to companies and institutions that employ or contract with vehicle drivers, such as trucking companies, limousine companies, and taxi cab companies, where the system will be marketed as a preventative drunk driving detection system, with a possible ignition locking device, (ii) the original equipment manufacturing (OEM) market, where the device would be installed in new vehicles during the original building of a vehicle, (iii) companies and institutions that have an interest in monitoring their employees’ or contractors’ alcohol level due to their job responsibilities, such as surgeons prior to entering surgery, pilots prior to flying aircraft, mineworkers prior to entering a mine, or the military for personnel returning to a military base from off-base leave or prior to leaving for a mission, and (iv) companies that would want to provide knowledge to their customers of their current alcohol level, such as lounge and bar owners, or customers attending a golfing event. We believe SOBR offers a unique solution to the national alcohol abuse problem.

We have developed a marketing plan that our management believes will gain market recognition for the SOBR device, primarily through trade shows, industry publications, general solicitation, social media, and public relations, as well as hopefully generating the demand for the SOBR device through the use of selling groups, such as channel sales, distributors, and independent sales contractors. We believe the primary market for the in-vehicle SOBR device initially is the commercial vehicle market, such as trucking companies, taxi cab companies, limousine companies, and bus companies. Many of these companies have a significant financial interest in eliminating drunk drivers from their operations. Secondarily, individuals may desire to monitor a family member's vehicle, such as an automobile operated by a minor or a family member with a past alcohol issue.

We believe the primarily market for the portable SOBR device is its use by companies and institutions that have an interest in monitoring their employees’ or contractors’ alcohol level due to their job responsibilities, such as surgeons prior to entering surgery, pilots prior to flying aircraft, mineworkers prior to entering a mine, or the military for personnel returning to a military base from off-base leave.

On May 6, 2019, we signed a definitive Asset Purchase Agreement (the “APA”) with IDTEC, LLC, to acquire certain assets related to robotics equipment, which our management believes is synergistic with our current assets, from IDTEC in exchange for shares of our common stock equal to 60% of our then outstanding common stock. The APA is subject to several conditions precedent, primarily: (i) we must be current in our reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (ii) we must complete a reverse stock split of our common stock such that approximately 8,000,000 shares will be outstanding immediately prior to closing the transaction with no convertible instruments other than as set forth in the APA and our authorized common stock must be reduced to 100,000,000 shares, and (iii) we must not have more than approximately $150,000 in current liabilities. We do not believe we will close this transaction until early 2020. At the time of the closing of the transaction we estimate we will have approximately 257,000,000 shares of our common stock outstanding before factoring in any reverse stock split.

In advance of closing the transaction, IDTEC and a few other affiliated parties have been advancing funds to us and/or on our behalf for the costs related to the transaction, as well as for further developing and enhancing our current SOBR product. The funds advanced will be turned into promissory notes at the closing of the APA and are expected to be around $1 million by the time we close the transaction.

The description of the APA set forth in this Quarterly Report is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of that document, which is attached as Exhibit 10.6 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

If the closing occurs, the assets being acquired under the APA are the same assets that were subject to the Letter of Intent with First Capital Holdings, LLC we previously announced in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on November 6, 2018.

On September 19, 2011, we, Imagine Media, Ltd., a Delaware corporation, acquired approximately 52% of the outstanding shares of TransBiotec, Inc., (“TBT”) from TBT’s directors in exchange for 12,416,462 shares of our common stock. The accounting for this transaction was identical to that resulting from a reverse acquisition, except that no goodwill or other intangibles were recorded, as our shareholders retained the majority of the outstanding common stock of Imagine Media LTD after the share exchange. At the time, these shares represented approximately 52% of our outstanding common stock. TBT was a California corporation.

On January 17, 2012, our Board of Directors amended our Certificate of Incorporation changing our name from Imagine Media, Ltd. to TransBiotec, Inc.

On January 31, 2012, we acquired approximately 45% of the remaining outstanding shares of TBT in exchange for 10,973,678 shares of our common stock. Because of the September 2011 and January 2012 acquisitions of TBT common stock, we currently own approximately 98.62% of the outstanding shares of TBT, and we control its board of directors and officer positions. The remaining 1.38% is owned by non-affiliated individuals that did not participate in the share exchange.

As a result of the acquisition, TBT's business is our business, and, unless otherwise indicated, any references to “we” or “us” include the business and operations of TBT.

We have developed and patented a high technology, state-of-the-art transdermal sensing system that detects blood alcohol levels through a person's skin.

Results of Operations for Three Months Ended March 31, 2019 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2018

Summary of Results of Operations

Operating Loss; Net Loss

Our net loss decreased by $4,581 from $143,870 to $139,289, from the three month period ended March 31, 2018 compared to the three month period ended March 31, 2019. Our operating loss decreased by $10,829, from $79,843 to $69,014 for the same periods. The change in our net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to the prior year period, is primarily a result of us having a loss on fair value adjustment from derivatives in 2019 compared to none in 2018, a decrease in interest expense related to full amortization of debt issuance costs, and a decrease in general and administrative expenses in 2019 compared to 2018. The changes are detailed below.

Revenue

We have not had any revenues since our inception. Since September 2011, we have been involved in the development, testing and marketing of SOBR, our unique alcohol sensor technology. Although we have not had any sales to date, we believe we are close to our first sales and revenue, but that will be dependent upon our ability to raise sufficient funds to bring the SOBR device to market.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses decreased by $10,829, from $79,843 for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 to $69,014 for the three month period ended March 31, 2019, primarily due to a decrease in insurance and consulting expenses.

Fair Value Adjustment - Derivatives

Loss on fair value adjustment - derivatives was $800 for the three month period ended March 31, 2019, compared to $0 for the three month period ended March 31, 2018. This increase was due to us not having a derivative liability at March 31, 2018, but having one at March 31, 2019. The loss on fair value adjustment - derivative liability we recorded during the three month period ended March 31, 2019 was an adjustment due to us having a convertible note payable that contains an embedded derivative.

Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased by $141, from $64,027 for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 to $63,886 for the three month period ended March 31, 2019. For both periods these amounts are largely due to the interest on outstanding debt.

Amortization of Interest – Beneficial Conversion Feature

During the three month period ended March 31, 2019, our amortization of interest – beneficial conversion feature was $5,356, compared to none during the three month period ended March 31, 2018. The expense in 2019 is related to an unamortized discount on convertible non-related party notes payable that contain a beneficial conversion feature.

Liquidity and Capital Resources for Three Months Ended March 31, 2019 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2018

Introduction

During the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, because of our operating losses, we did not generate positive operating cash flows. Our cash on hand as of March 31, 2019 was $1,148 and our monthly cash flow burn rate is approximately $25,000. As a result, we have significant short term cash needs. These needs are being satisfied through proceeds from the sales of our securities and loans from both related parties and third parties. We currently do not believe we will be able to satisfy our cash needs from our revenues for some time, and there is no guarantee we will be successful in the future satisfying these needs through the proceeds generated from the sales of our securities.

Our cash, current assets, total assets, current liabilities, and total liabilities as of March 31, 2019 and as of December 31, 2018, respectively, are as follows:

Our current assets increased slightly as of March 31, 2019, as compared to December 31, 2018, due to us having more cash on hand, offset by slightly less prepaid expenses at March 31, 2019. The increase in our total assets between the two periods was also related to the increased cash on hand as of March 31, 2019, offset by the slightly less prepaid expenses.

Our current liabilities increased by $69,877 as of March 31, 2019 as compared to December 31, 2018. This increase was primarily due to increases in notes payable – related parties, notes payable - non-related parties, derivative liabilities, and accrued interest payable, offset by decreases in accounts payable, accrued expenses and related party payables.

In order to repay our obligations in full or in part when due, we will be required to raise significant capital from other sources. There is no assurance, however, that we will be successful in these efforts.

Sources and Uses of Cash

Operations

We had net cash used for operating activities of $111,691 for the three month period ended March 31, 2019, as compared to net cash used for operating activities of $20,211 for the three month period ended March 31, 2018. For the period in 2019, the net cash used in operating activities consisted primarily of our net loss of $139,506, offset by stock warrants expense of $6,982, amortization - beneficial conversion feature of $5,356, and change in fair value of derivative liability of $800, and changes in our accounts payable of $17,741, accrued expenses of $1,749, accrued interest payable of $35,857, related party payables of $3,003, stock subscriptions payable of $403, and prepaid expenses of $460.

For the three month period ended March 31, 2018, our net cash from financing activities consisted entirely of net proceeds from notes payable – related parties of $20,300.

ITEM 3 Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

ITEM 4 Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure and Controls Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms. Disclosure and control procedures are also designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

As of March 31, 2019, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our chief executive officer (our Principal Executive Officer) and chief financial officer (our Principal Financial Officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that there are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their desired control objectives. Additionally, in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures, management is required to apply its reasonable judgment. We also do not have an audit committee. Based on the evaluation described above, and as a result, in part, of not having an audit committee and having one individual serve as our chief executive officer and another individual serve as our chief financial officer, management has concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to the same extent as reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

As funds become available to us, we expect to implement additional measures to improve disclosure controls and procedures.

(b) Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report, which has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

(c) Officer’s Certifications

Appearing as an exhibit to this quarterly report on Form 10-Q are “Certifications” of our Chief Executive and Financial Officer. The Certifications are required pursuant to Sections 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Section 302 Certifications”). This section of the quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains information concerning the Controls Evaluation referred to in the Section 302 Certifications. This information should be read in conjunction with the Section 302 Certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1 Legal Proceedings

On December 6, 2006, Orange County Valet and Security Patrol, Inc. filed a lawsuit against us in Orange County California State Superior Court for Breach of Contract in the amount of $11,164. A default judgment was taken against us in this matter. In mid-2013 we learned the Plaintiff’s perfected the judgment against us, but we have not heard from the Plaintiffs as of November 2019.

We currently have one outstanding judgment against us involving a past employee of the Company. The matter is under the purview of the State of California, Franchise Tax Board, Industrial Health and Safety Collections. We currently owe approximately $28,786 plus accrued interest, to our ex-employee for unpaid wages under these Orders and are working to get this amount paid off.

In the ordinary course of business, we are from time to time involved in various pending or threatened legal actions. The litigation process is inherently uncertain and it is possible that the resolution of such matters might have a material adverse effect upon our financial condition and/or results of operations. However, in the opinion of our management, other than as set forth herein, matters currently pending or threatened against us are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.
