(Unaudited)

 

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Interim Financial Statements

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of SPYR, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) are unaudited. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the SEC. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 included herein was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date, but does not include all disclosures, including notes, required by GAAP.

 

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to fairly present the Company’s financial position and results of operations for the interim periods reflected. Except as noted, all adjustments contained herein are of a normal recurring nature. Results of operations for the fiscal periods presented herein are not necessarily indicative of fiscal year-end results.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SPYR, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, SPYR APPS, LLC, a Nevada Limited Liability Company, E.A.J.: PHL, Airport Inc., a Pennsylvania corporation (discontinued operations, see Note 6).

Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern. Such assumption contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business, however, the issues described below raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to do so.

 

As shown in the accompanying financial statements, for the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded a net loss from continuing operations of $3,597,000 and have current liabilities of $3,432,000. As of June 30, 2022, our cash balance was $4,000. These issues raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company intends to utilize cash on hand, shareholder loans and other forms of financing such as the sale of additional equity and debt securities, capital leases and other credit facilities to conduct its ongoing business, and to also conduct strategic business development, marketing analysis, due diligence investigations into possible acquisitions, and software development costs and implementation of our business plans generally. The Company also plans to diversify, through acquisition or otherwise, in other unrelated business areas and is exploring opportunities to do so.

 

Historically, we have financed our operations primarily through sales of our common stock and debt financing. The Company will continue to seek additional capital through the sale of its common stock, debt financing and through expansion of its existing and new products. If our financing goals for our products do not materialize as planned and if we are not able to achieve profitable operations at some point in the future, we may have insufficient working capital to maintain our operations as we presently intend to conduct them or to fund our expansion, marketing, and product development plans.

 

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the success of future capital offerings or alternative financing arrangements and expansion of its operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Management is actively pursuing additional sources of financing sufficient to generate enough cash flow to fund its operations through calendar year 2022. However, management cannot make any assurances that such financing will be secured.

Covid-19

 

On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the coronavirus outbreak a “Public Health Emergency of International Concern” and on March 10, 2020, declared it to be a pandemic. Actions taken around the world to help mitigate the spread of the coronavirus include restrictions on travel, and quarantines in certain areas, and forced closures for certain types of public places and businesses. The coronavirus and actions taken to mitigate it have had and are expected to continue to have an adverse impact on the economies and financial markets of many countries, including the geographical area in which the Company operates. While it is unknown how long these conditions will last and what the complete financial effect will be to the company, the Company is anticipating potential reductions in revenue, labor and supply shortages, difficulty meeting debt covenants, delays in collecting receivables and paying liabilities and changes in the fair value of assets and liabilities. Our necessity for fund raising activities make it reasonably possible that we are vulnerable to the risk of a near-term severe impact.

 

Additionally, it is reasonably possible that estimates made in the financial statements have been, or will be, materially and adversely impacted in the near term as a result of these conditions, including potential credit losses on receivables and investments; impairment losses related to long-lived assets; and contingent obligations.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the 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. Estimates and assumptions used by management affected impairment analysis for trading securities, fixed assets, intangible assets, capitalized licensing rights, amounts of potential liabilities, and valuation of issuance of equity securities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

 

The basic and fully diluted shares for the six months ended June 30, 2022 are the same because the inclusion of the potential shares (Class A – 26,909,028, Class E – 1,385,042, Options – 4,379,900 and Warrants – 5,800,000) would have had an anti-dilutive effect due to the Company generating a loss for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

 

The basic and fully diluted shares for the six months ended June 30, 2021 are the same because the inclusion of the potential shares (Class A – 26,909,028, Class E – 570,190, Options – 5,379,900 and Warrants – 7,200,000) would have had an anti-dilutive effect due to the Company generating a loss for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

 

The basic and fully diluted shares for the three months ended June 30, 2022 are the same because the inclusion of the potential shares (Class A – 26,909,028, Class E – 1,385,042, Options – 4,379,900 and Warrants – 5,800,000) would have had an anti-dilutive effect due to the Company generating a loss for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

 

The basic and fully diluted shares for the three months ended June 30, 2021 are the same because the inclusion of the potential shares (Class A – 26,909,028, Class E – 570,190, Options – 5,379,900 and Warrants – 7,200,000) would have had an anti-dilutive effect due to the Company generating a loss for the three months ended June 30, 2021.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation or amortization. Depreciation is recorded at the time property and equipment is placed in service using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, which range from three to ten years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the expected useful lives of the related assets or the lease term. The estimated economic useful lives of the related assets as follows:

 

     
Furniture and fixtures   2-7 years  
Computer equipment   1-3 years  
Vehicles   5 years  

 

Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations; betterments are capitalized. The cost of property sold or otherwise disposed of and the accumulated depreciation and amortization thereon are eliminated from the property and related accumulated depreciation and amortization accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is credited or charged to operations.

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company has no significant off-balance-sheet concentrations of credit risk such as foreign exchange contracts, options contracts, or other foreign hedging arrangements. The Company maintains the majority of its cash balances with financial institutions, in the form of demand deposits. The Company believes that no significant concentration of credit risk exists with respect to these cash balances because of its assessment of the creditworthiness and financial viability of this financial institution.

 

Recent Accounting Standards

 

The recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 5 – CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

 

On September 30, 2020, the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with a third-party investor. By virtue of the Stock Purchase Agreement, in two separate closings, the Company agreed to sell, in each closing, an 8% $500,000 Convertible Promissory Note and Warrant to purchase one million common shares. Each Convertible Promissory Note bears 8% interest and matures five year after issuance. Amounts due under the Convertible Promissory Note are convertible into the Registrant’s common stock at the lower of $0.25 per share or 70% of the average of the three lowest Variable Weighted Average Price (“VWAP”) for the Registrant’s common stock for the twenty trading days prior to an election to convert. The Warrants are exercisable for five-years at an exercise price of 0.25 per share or, subject to the Registrant filing a registration statement including the shares of common stock that may be issued upon exercise of the Warrant, in a cashless exercise. The first closing occurred October 5, 2020 upon the receipt by the Company of a check for $500,000.

NOTE 8 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITY

 

The Company determined that the conversion features of the long-term convertible notes payable represented embedded derivatives since the notes are convertible into a variable number of shares upon conversion. Accordingly, the notes are not considered to be conventional debt and the embedded conversion feature is bifurcated from the debt host and accounted for as a derivative liability. Accordingly, the fair value of these derivative instruments is recorded as liabilities on the balance sheet with the corresponding amount recorded as a discount to each note and any excess of the fair value of the derivative component over the face amount of the note recorded as an expense on the date of issuance. Discounts are amortized from the date of issuance to the maturity dates of the notes. Fair value of derivative liabilities is evaluated at the end of each reporting period with any change in value reported in other income or expenses on the statements of operations for the period.

 

The following table represents the Company’s derivative liability activity for the six months ended June 30, 2022:

This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.

Plan of Operations

 

SPYR®, Inc. acts as a holding company to develop a portfolio of profitable subsidiaries, not limited by any particular industry or business.

 

With our October 20, 2020, acquisition of Applied Magix, a Nevada corporation (“Applied Magix”), our business model changed to focus on the development of our wholly owned subsidiary Applied Magix Inc., a registered Apple® developer, and reseller of Apple® ecosystem compatible products and accessories with an emphasis on the smart home market. As such, we are in the global “Internet of Things” (IoT) market, and more specifically, the segment of the market related to the development, manufacture and sale of devices and accessories specifically built on Apple’s HomeKit® framework. These products work within the Apple® HomeKit® ecosystem and are exclusive to the Apple market and its consumers. Apple® HomeKit® is a system that lets users control smart home devices, so long as they’re compatible with the HomeKit® ecosystem, giving users control over smart thermostat, lights, locks and more in multiple rooms, creating comfortable environments and remote control of other connected devices. Our strategy is two-fold. First, we intend to resell, under our Applied Magix brand, a variety of chargers, cables, cords, charging docks, cases, cameras, adaptors and other accessories used in the Apple® ecosystem in various internet marketplaces. Secondly, we are developing an Applied Magix branded hardware device for use with the Apple HomeKit® framework, that will allow users to program and securely control and manage multiple smart home devices labeled as a “Works with Apple HomeKit” accessory through the Apple® HomeKit® app for iOS. To date, our strategy is in the development stage. We have yet to begin sales efforts for our branded Apple® ecosystem compatible products and accessories, and our Apple HomeKit® hardware device is in development.

 

We will also continue to identify and target acquisitions, which will grow our footprint in the technology industry and expand the products we offer consumers, including companies developing artificial intelligence and smart-technology products.

 

The Company intends to utilize cash on hand, shareholder loans and other forms of financing such as the sale of additional equity and debt securities, capital leases and other credit facilities to conduct its ongoing business, and to also conduct strategic business development, marketing analysis, due diligence investigations into possible acquisitions, and implementation of our Applied Magix business plans generally. The Company also seeks to diversify, through acquisition or otherwise, in other related and/or unrelated business areas and is exploring opportunities to do so.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern. Such assumption contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

 

The Company has generated a net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2022 of $3,597,000 and utilized cash in operations of $797,000. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had current assets of $125,000, which included cash and cash equivalents of $4,000, prepaid expenses of $4,000, inventory of $115,000 and current assets of discontinued operations of $2,000.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company has met its capital requirements through proceeds from the Company’s issuance of long term convertible notes.

 

The Company currently does not have sufficient cash and liquidity to meet its anticipated working capital for the next twelve months. The Company will continue to seek additional capital through the sale of its common stock, debt financing and through expansion of its existing and new products. If these goals do not materialize as planned, we believe that the Company can reduce its operating and product development costs and that would allow us to maintain sufficient cash levels to continue operations. However, if we are not able to achieve profitable operations at some point in the future, we may have insufficient working capital to maintain our operations as we presently intend to conduct them or to fund our expansion, marketing, and product development plans. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain such financing on acceptable terms, or at all.

 

The Company may also decide to expand and/or diversify, through acquisition or otherwise, in other related or unrelated business areas if opportunities present themselves.

 

Operating Activities - For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company used cash in operating activities of $797,000. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company used cash in operating activities of $1,143,000. Operating activities consist of corporate overhead and development of Applied Magix products. Increases are due to increases in cash-paid operating expenses. See the above results of operations discussion for more details.

 

Investing Activities - During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company received no income from investing activities. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company purchased property and equipment sold property and equipment for $8,000.

 

Financing Activities - During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company borrowed $760,000 from long term convertible notes, $47,000 from short-term convertible notes and repaid notes payable, current portion of $38,000. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company borrowed $501,000 from related parties, $85,000 from third parties and $73,000 from the U.S. Small Business Administration pursuant to the Paycheck Protection Program.

 

Government Regulations - The Company is subject to all pertinent Federal, State, and Local laws governing its business. Each subsidiary is subject to licensing and regulation by a number of authorities in its State or municipality. These may include health, safety, and fire regulations. The Company’s operations are also subject to Federal and State minimum wage laws governing such matters as working conditions, overtime, and tip credits.

 

Critical Accounting Policies - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Note 1 to the quarterly and annual Consolidated Financial Statements describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, contingencies and taxes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The following critical accounting policies are impacted significantly by judgments, assumptions, and estimates used in the preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company periodically issues stock options and warrants to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing costs. The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to employees based on the authoritative guidance provided by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) whereas the value of the award is measured on the date of grant and recognized over the vesting period. The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to non-employees in accordance with the authoritative guidance of the FASB whereas the value of the stock compensation is based upon the measurement date as determined at either a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete. Non-employee stock-based compensation charges generally are amortized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis. In certain circumstances where there are no future performance requirements by the non-employee, option grants are immediately vested, and the total stock-based compensation charge is recorded in the period of the measurement date.

 

The fair value of the Company’s stock option and warrant grants is estimated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing model, which uses certain assumptions related to risk-free interest rates, expected volatility, expected life of the stock options or warrants, and future dividends. Compensation expense is recorded based upon the value derived from the Black-Scholes Option Pricing model and based on actual experience. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes Option Pricing model could materially affect compensation expense recorded in future periods.

 

The Company also issues restricted shares of its common stock for share-based compensation programs to employees and non-employees. The Company measures the compensation cost with respect to restricted shares to employees based upon the estimated fair value at the date of the grant and is recognized as expense over the period which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award. For non-employees, the Company measures the compensation cost with respect to restricted shares based upon the estimated fair value at measurement date which is either a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company evaluates all of its agreements to determine if such instruments have derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses the Black-Scholes Option Pricing 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’s only derivative financial instruments were embedded conversion features associated with long-term convertible notes payable which contain certain provisions that allow for a variable number of shares on conversion.

 

Loss Contingencies

 

The Company is subject to various loss contingencies arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company considers the likelihood of loss or impairment of an asset or the incurrence of a liability, as well as its ability to reasonably estimate the amount of loss in determining loss contingencies. An estimated loss contingency is accrued when management concludes that it is probable that an asset has been impaired or a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company regularly evaluates current information available to us to determine whether such accruals should be adjusted.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Not applicable.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Management of the Company is responsible for maintaining disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that financial information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the timeframes specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, consistent with Items 307 and 308 of Regulation S-K.

 

In addition, the disclosure controls and procedures must ensure that such financial information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required financial and other required disclosures.

 

As of June 30, 2022, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13(a)-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and other persons carrying out similar functions for the Company. In making this assessment, Management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) (Revised 2013) in Internal Control over Financial Reporting - Guidance for Smaller Public Companies. Based on the evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, Management concluded that during the period covered by this report, such disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, due to certain identified material weaknesses. These identified material weaknesses include, (i) insufficient accounting staff, (ii) inadequate segregation of duties, (iii) limited checks and balances in processing cash and other transactions, and (iv) the lack of independent audit committee.

 

The Company is committed to improving its disclosure controls and procedures and the remediation of identified control weaknesses. As capital becomes available, Management plans to increase the accounting and financial reporting staff, add independent directors to the Board of Directors and establish an independent audit committee. We cannot provide assurance that these procedures will be successful in identifying material errors that may exist in the financial statements, nor can we make assurances that additional material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting will not be identified in the future.

 

The Company continues to employ and refine a structure in which critical accounting policies, issues and estimates are identified, and together with other complex areas, are subject to multiple reviews by accounting personnel. In addition, the Company evaluates and assesses its internal controls and procedures regarding its financial reporting as necessary and on an on-going basis.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of the prevention or detection of misstatements. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

 

The Company has no reportable changes to its internal controls over financial reporting for the period covered by this report.

 

The Company will continually enhance and test its internal controls over financial reporting on a continuing basis. Additionally, the Company’s management, under the control of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, will increase its review of its disclosure controls and procedures on an ongoing basis. Finally, the Company plans to designate, in conjunction with its Chief Financial Officer, individuals responsible for identifying reportable developments and the process for resolving compliance issues related to them. The Company believes these actions will focus necessary attention and resources in its internal accounting functions.

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

Settlements

Fiore, Berkshire Capital Management Co., Inc., and Eat at Joe’s, Ltd. n/k/a SPYR, Inc.(“Defendants”). Joseph A. Fiore was the Chairman of our Board of Directors and is a significant shareholder. Mr. Fiore resigned from his positions as Chairman of the Board and as a Director of the Company effective August 1, 2018. The suit alleged that Mr. Fiore, during 2013 and 2014, while he was the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors, engaged in improper conduct on behalf of the defendants named in the case related to the Company’s sales of securities in Plandai Biotechnology, Inc. The Commission alleged that Mr. Fiore and the Company unlawfully benefited through the sales of those securities. The Commission also alleged that from 2013 to 2014, the Company’s primary business was investing and that it failed to register as an investment company, resulting in an alleged violation of Section 7(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940. The suit sought to disgorge Joseph A. Fiore, Berkshire Capital Management Co., Inc., and the Company of alleged profits on the sale of the securities and civil fines related to the Company’s failure to register as an investment company with the Commission.

 

Pursuant to a settlement agreement among the parties, on April 14, 2020, final judgment was entered in the case: Securities and Exchange Commission vs. Joseph A. Fiore, Berkshire Capital Management, Inc. and Eat at Joes, Inc., n/k/a SPYR, Inc., case number 7:18-cv-05474-KMK filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.

 

On April 23, 2020, Joseph Fiore/Berkshire Capital Management, Inc. satisfied the Company’s joint and several liability obligation by paying to the Commission the agreed upon sum of Two Million Dollars pursuant to a settlement agreement between Joseph Fiore/Berkshire Capital Management, Inc. and the Company, which settlement agreement was entered into on April 15, 2020. The Company has until April 14, 2021 to satisfy its remaining financial obligation to the Commission, an agreed upon civil penalty of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000). The $500,000 liability is reported as part of accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 and was recorded as litigation settlement costs on the consolidated statements of operations on the Company’s form 10K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

 

In electing to settle with the Commission, the Company neither admitted nor denied liability to any of the Commission’s allegations in its complaint, and in consideration for the Commission discontinuing its action, the Company, along with the two other defendants Joseph Fiore and Berkshire Capital Management agreed to be jointly and severally liable for disgorgement of profits and prejudgment interest in the amount of two million dollars, and to each be solely liable to pay a civil penalty in the amount of five hundred thousand dollars.
