Item 1. Business

 

Summary

 

Sunstock, Inc. (“Sunstock” or “the Company”) was incorporated on July 23, 2012, as Sandgate Acquisition Corporation, under the laws of the State of Delaware to engage in any lawful corporate undertaking, including, but not limited to, selected mergers and acquisitions. In July 2013, the Company implemented a change of control by issuing shares to new shareholders, redeeming shares of existing shareholders, electing new officers and directors and accepting the resignations of its then existing officers and directors. In connection with the change of control, the shareholders of the Company and its board of directors unanimously approved the change of the Company’s name from Sandgate Acquisition Corporation to Sunstock, Inc. On July 18, 2013, Jason Chang and Dr. Ramnik S Clair were named as directors of the Company.

 

On October 30, 2013, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement with Dollar Store Services, Inc. to develop, design and build out a retail store which the Company opened in February 2014. The Company opened its second retail store in May 2014. On August 21, 2014 the first store was forced to close due to below code electrical wiring the landlord had provided. Perishable inventory at this store was relocated to the second store as nonperishables were moved into storage along with fixed assets. The Company’s second store was relocated in December of 2015 under lease running through June 2017 and operated on a month to month lease from then until the store was closed in September 2018. The Company currently operates no variety retail stores.

On October 22, 2018, the Company acquired all assets and liabilities of Mom’s Silver Shop, Inc. (the “Retail Store”) of Sacramento, California. Included in the assets acquired was approximately $60,000 in precious metals inventory and approximately $13,000 in net fixtures. Also included were any licenses and permits, customer lists, logo, trade names, signs, and websites. Financing of the purchase was by $20,056 cash, $33,000 unsecured note payable with principal payments of $1,000 per week for 33 weeks starting January 1, 2019 with 4.5% annual interest accrued on the unpaid balance (total accrued interest due August 27, 2019), and the assumption of liabilities and lease obligations. The Retail Store specializes in buying and selling gold, silver, and rare coins, and is one of the leading precious metals retailers in the greater Sacramento metropolitan area.

 

The Company’s business plan includes the buying, selling and distribution of precious metals, primarily gold. The Company pursues a “ground to coin” strategy, whereby it acquires mining assets as well as rights to purchase mining production and sells these metals primarily through retail channels including their own branded coins. The company emphasizes investment in enduring assets that we believe may provide ‘resource to retail’ conversion upside. Our goal is to provide our shareholders with an exceptional opportunity to capture value in the precious metals sector without incurring many of the costs and risks associated with actual mining operations.

 

The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm has issued a report stating there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The Business: Precious Metals and Coins - Sunstock

 

Silver and other precious metals, may be used as an investment. A traditional way of investing in silver is by buying actual bullion bars. In some countries, like Switzerland and Liechtenstein, bullion bars can be bought or sold over the counter at major banks. Another means of buying and trading silver is through silver coins. Silver coins include the one ounce 99.99% pure Canadian Silver Maple Leaf and the one ounce 99.93% pure American Silver Eagle. Likewise, an increasing popular method of trading in silver and precious metals is through exchange-traded products, such as exchange-traded funds, exchange-traded notes and closed-end funds that aim to track the price of silver. Silver exchange-traded products are traded on the major stock exchanges including the London and New York Stock Exchanges.

 

Investors typically look to precious metals as a safe and reliable store of value and as a way to protect their assets from the influence of inflation, devaluation, and potential bond and equity market crashes. They act as safe haven investments, particularly in times of elevated political and economic uncertainty. The flow of investment capital into commodity-related sectors has increased more than tenfold over the past decade. Stable precious metal prices compared to increasing stock market volatility have elevated investments in precious metals to a standalone asset class, forming part of almost all diversified asset portfolios.

 

At the present time, the Company does not anticipate or foresee a material effect on this line of its business from existing or probable governmental regulations except as follows. The recent COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in many governments around the world enacting various social distancing orders and directives, which have resulted in decreased foot traffic to many business, as well as accommodative fiscal and monetary measures that have been viewed as inflationary by some markets, which has resulted in increased demand for physical precious metals bullion and coins. This recent increased demand has occurred at the same time in supply constraints from mints and refiners as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, premiums on precious metal bullion and coins available for immediate delivery have recently increased, affecting both our revenues and our ability to resupply our inventories of our precious metals. We expect price, demand and supply volatility to continue as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the actions governments are taking to address it.

Services and Products

 

The Company has established positions in precious metals. As of December 31, 2020, the Company held 11,200 ounces of silver and 204 ounces of gold.

 

Competition

 

The Company’s Retail Store has a number of small coin shop competitors in the Sacramento, California area, as well as online precious metals dealer competitors such as monex.com and apmex.com.

 

Sales and Marketing Strategy

 

The Company’s goal is to achieve vertical integration within the precious metal industry. To achieve this goal, the Company is investigating the acquisition of mineral rights and assets to complement its already established precious metal business. We intend to first focus on projects that already own significant amounts of unrefined – but already mined – gold ore and other precious metals.

 

Revenues and Losses

 

The Company had limited revenues prior to the acquisition of the Retail Store, and has not realized any operating profits as of yet.

 

The Company recorded revenues of $10,072,770 and $6,148,441 during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 

The Company has had net losses from inception through the year ended December 31, 2019. The Company had a net loss of $10,125,066 for the year ended December 31, 2019. The Company had a net income of $2,677,844 for the year ended December 31, 2020, due to $4,087,280 in net other income derived mainly from the settlement of $776,315 of debt and $3,240,220 reduction of derivative liability. The Company does not expect to enter into such debt agreements in the future nor realize such income in the future.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

 

On August 21, 2020, Boustead Securities, LLC (“Boustead”) filed suit against Sunstock, Inc. (“Sunstock”) in the County of Orange, California. Boustead is an investment banking firm engaged by Sunstock on September 19, 2019 to raise equity. Boustead maintains that Sunstock owes it 87,179,487 shares of Preferred Stock Warrants and 9,230,769 shares of Common Stock Warrants. Boustead is also seeking general damages, interest, and costs of the suit. Sunstock believes that Boustead has not fulfilled its obligations in raising equity and plans to vigorously contest the suit. Sunstock has hired an arbitrator and is currently in negotiations with Boustead.

Item 5. Market for Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

 

On December 9, 2015 the Company began light trading on the NASDAQ bulletin board under the symbol “SSOK”.

 

The Company’s shares currently trade on the OTC Link alternative trading system operated by OTC Markets Group, Inc. under the symbol “SSOK.” The following table sets forth the high and low bid prices of our common stock (USD) for the last two fiscal years as reported by the OTCMarkets.com and represents inter dealer quotations, without retail markup, markdown or commission and may not be reflective of actual transactions.

 

   High   Low 
         
Year ended December 31, 2020:          
First Quarter  $0.0235   $0.00085 
Second Quarter   0.0058    0.0012 
Third Quarter   0.0038    0.0011 
Fourth Quarter   0.003    0.0008

Second Quarter   0.013    0.0001 
Third Quarter   0.013    0.0021 
Fourth Quarter   0.010    0.0016 

 

As of December 31, 2020, there are 2,939,677,703 shares of common stock outstanding of which 1,256,124,397 shares are owned by officers and directors of the Company. There are approximately 80 holders of our common stock.

 

The future sale of the Company’s presently outstanding “unregistered” and “restricted” common stock by present members of management and persons who own more than five percent of the Company’s outstanding voting securities may have an adverse effect on any “established trading market” that may develop in the shares of the Company’s common stock.

 

In general, securities may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 after being fully-paid and held for more than 6 months. While affiliates of the Company are subject to certain limits in the amount of restricted securities, they can sell under Rule 144, there are no such limitations on sales by persons who are not affiliates of the Company. In the event non-affiliated holders elect to sell such shares in the public market, there is likely to be a negative effect on the market price of the Company’s securities. There is no dividend policy currently in place.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Overview

 

You should read the following discussion and analysis in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes thereto included in Part II, Item 8 of this Report before deciding to purchase, hold or sell our common stock.

 

Sunstock, Inc. (“Sunstock” or “the Company”) was incorporated on July 23, 2012, as Sandgate Acquisition Corporation, under the laws of the State of Delaware to engage in any lawful corporate undertaking, including, but not limited to, selected mergers and acquisitions.

 

On July 18, 2013, the Company changed its’ name from Sandgate Acquisition Corporation to Sunstock, Inc. On the same date, Jason Chang and Dr. Ramnik S Clair were named as directors of the Company.

 

On October 30, 2013, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement with Dollar Store Services, Inc. to develop, design and build out a retail store which the Company opened in February 2014. The Company opened its second retail store in May 2014. On August 21, 2014 the first store was forced to close due to below code electrical wiring the landlord had provided. Perishable inventory at this store was relocated to the second store as nonperishables were moved into storage along with fixed assets. The Company’s second store was relocated in December of 2015 under lease running through June 2017 and operated on a month to month lease from then until the store was closed in September 2018. The Company currently operates no variety retail stores.

 

On October 22, 2018, the Company acquired all assets and liabilities of the Retail Store of Sacramento, California. Included in the assets acquired was approximately $60,000 in precious metals inventory and approximately $13,000 in net fixtures. Also included were any licenses and permits, customer lists, logo, trade names, signs, and websites. Financing of the purchase was by $20,056 cash, $33,000 unsecured note payable with principal payments of $1,000 per week for 33 weeks starting January 1, 2019 with 4.5% annual interest accrued on the unpaid balance (total accrued interest due August 27, 2019), and the assumption of liabilities and lease obligations. The Retail Store specializes in buying and selling gold, silver, and rare coins, and is one of the leading precious metals retailers in the greater Sacramento metropolitan area.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires making estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company follows Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). The guidance sets forth a new five-step revenue recognition model which replaces the prior revenue recognition guidance in its entirety and is intended to eliminate numerous industry-specific pieces of revenue recognition guidance that have historically existed in U.S. GAAP. The underlying principle of the standard is that a business or other organization will recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects what it expects to receive in exchange for the goods or services. The standard also requires more detailed disclosures and provides additional guidance for transactions that were not addressed completely in the prior accounting guidance.

 

The Company’s principal activities from which it generates revenue are product sales. Revenue is measured based on considerations specified in a contract with a customer. A contract exists when it becomes a legally enforceable agreement with a customer. These contracts define each party’s rights, payment terms and other contractual terms and conditions of the sale. Consideration is typically paid at time of sale via credit card, check, or cash when products are sold direct to consumers.

 

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct product to the customer, which for the Company is transfer of a product to customers. Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the goods that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the goods is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. The Company has concluded the sale of product and related shipping and handling are accounted for as the single performance obligation.

 

The transaction price of a contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when or as the customer receives the benefit of the performance obligation. The transaction price is determined based on the consideration to which the Company will be entitled to receive in exchange for transferring goods to the customer. We do not issue refunds.

 

The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation in a contract by transferring control over a product to a customer when product is shipped based on fulfillment by the Company or when a point of sale transaction is completed. Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction, that are collected by the Company from a customer, are excluded from revenue. Shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight after control over a product has transferred to a customer are accounted for as a fulfillment cost and are included in cost of product sales. The Company does not accept returns.

 

Stock-Based Compensation:

 

All share-based payments are recognized in the consolidated financial statements based upon their fair values.

 

The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”). ASC 718 requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all stock-based awards made to employees, directors and non-employees based on the grant date fair value of the awards. The measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance by the consultant or vendor is reached or (ii) the date at which the consultant or vendor’s performance is complete. In the case of equity instruments issued to consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is primarily recognized over the term of the consulting agreement. In accordance with FASB guidance, an asset acquired in exchange for the issuance of fully vested, non-forfeitable equity instruments should not be presented or classified as an offset to equity on the grantor’s balance sheet once the equity instrument is granted for accounting purposes.

2020 Year-End Analysis Results of Operations

 

Comparison of the Years Ended December 31, 2020 and 2019

 

For the year ended December 31, 2020, revenues were $10,072,770, an increase of $3,924,329 from $6,148,441 for 2019. The increase in revenue was primarily due to discounts to large purchasers of coins and more people considering coins a safe haven in 2020 due to Covid-19 and political uncertainty.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2020, cost of goods sold were $9,843,157, an increase of $3,901,418 from $5,941,739 for 2019 due to the increase in revenue.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2020, gross profit was $229,613 (2.3%), an increase of $22,911 from a gross profit of $206,702 (3.4%) for 2019.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2020, operating expenses were $1,638,250, a decrease of $7,125,808 from $8,764,057 for 2019. Stock based compensation was $974,600 for 2020, a decrease of $6,860,550 from $7,835,150 in 2019. $5,865,950 was for employee stock based compensation and $894,600 was for consultant stock based compensation in 2019. Stock based compensation is based on the discretion of the CEO.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2020, the net income was $2,677,844, an increase of $12,802,910 from a loss of $10,125,066 for 2019. The net income for 2020 was due to $4,087,280 in net other income derived mainly from the settlement of $776,315 of debt and $3,240,220 reduction of derivative liability. The Company does not expect to enter into such debt agreements in the future, nor realize such income in the future. The accumulated deficit at December 31, 2020 was $60,207,492.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of December 31, 2020, the Company had $47,055 in cash, $219 in accounts receivable, $1,015,599 in inventories and $13,456 in prepaid expenses. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company used net cash of $414,280 in operations. During the year ended December 31, 2020, $307,700 in net cash was provided by financing activities as follows: the Company raised $25,000 in cash from a convertible note payable, $5,100 from shareholder receivable, $42,500 from the issuance of common stock, $400,000 from the issuance of preferred stock, $150,000 from an SBA loan, $359,838 in notes payable from related parties, and paid $110,000 on notes payable from related parties and $564,738 on convertible notes payable.

 

The Company has not posted operating income since inception. It has an accumulated deficit of $60,207,491 as of December 31, 2020. Therefore, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations, which it has not been able to accomplish to date, and/or obtain additional financing from its stockholders and/or third parties.

 

Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

 

The financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 are attached hereto.

 

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

 

None.

 

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

 

The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Management must evaluate its internal controls over financial reporting, as required by Sarbanes-Oxley Act, Section 404 (a). The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles or GAAP.

 

11

 

 

As of December 31, 2020, management 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 the 2013 Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and SEC guidance on conducting such assessments. Based on that evaluation, they concluded that, during the period covered by this report, such internal controls and procedures were not effective to detect the inappropriate application of GAAP rules as more fully described below. This was due to deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that adversely affected its internal controls and that may be considered to be material weaknesses.

 

Material Weaknesses:

 

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

 

The material weaknesses identified are:

 

1. The Company does not have accounting personnel that have adequate technical accounting skills to identify terms in agreements that would have material accounting implications on the Company’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with US GAAP, such as permanent vs. temporary equity treatment of the Company’s preferred stock in accordance with ASC 480.

 

2. The Company does not obtain and retain supporting documentation over the precious metal trade dates and quantities traded and does not properly record the realized gain/loss on the trade according to the fair market value of the items traded on a given date.

 

3. The Company has an inadequate number of personnel that could accurately and timely record and report the Company’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with US GAAP.

 

4. The Company does not perform formal risk assessments over financial reporting and does not evaluate its internal control processes.

 

Notwithstanding the existence of these material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, we believe that the financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Further, we do not believe the material weaknesses identified had an impact on prior financial statements.

 

Remediation:

 

As part of our ongoing remedial efforts, we have and will continue to, among other things:

 

1. Expand our accounting policy and controls organization by hiring qualified accounting and finance personnel;

 

2. Increase our efforts to educate both our existing and expanded accounting policy and control organization on the application of the internal control structure;

 

3. Emphasize with management the importance of our internal control structure;

 

4. Seek outside consulting services where our existing accounting policy and control organization believes the complexity of the existing exceeds our internal capabilities.

 

5. Plan to implement improved accounting systems.

 

We believe that the foregoing actions will improve our internal control over financial reporting, as well as our disclosure controls and procedures. When funds permit, we intend to perform such procedures and commit such resources as necessary to continue to allow us to overcome or mitigate these material weaknesses such that we can make timely and accurate quarterly and annual financial filings until such time as those material weaknesses are fully addressed and remediated.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during its fourth fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.

PART III

 

Item 10. Directors, Executive Officers, and Corporate Governance

 

The Directors and Officers of the Company are as follows:

 

Name   Age   Positions and Offices Held
         
Jason C. Chang   47   President, Secretary, Director
Dr. Ramnik S. Clair   69   Vice President, Director

 

Management of Sunstock

 

The Company has three employees and two consultants. Jason C. Chang and Dr. Ramnik S. Clair are the officers and directors of the Company and shareholders. Mr. Chang, as president, and Mr. Clair as senior vice president, have allocated time to the activities of the Company with minimal cash compensation.

 

There are no agreements or understandings for the officer or director to resign at the request of another person and the above- named officer and director is not acting on behalf of nor will act at the direction of any other person.

 

Set forth below are the names of the directors and officers of the Company, all positions and offices with the Company held, the period during which they have served as such, and the business experience during at least the last five years:

 

Jason C. Chang, serves as a director, Chief Executive Officer and President of Sunstock. Mr. Chang began his career in the hospitality industry as a child and continuing as an adult working in the family business operating several hotels throughout California. Mr. Chang has now had over 20 years of hospitality management experience. In addition, as an entrepreneur, Mr. Chang has helped fund numerous startup companies, primarily related to the technology sector.

 

Dr. Ramnik Clair serves as a director and Senior Vice President of Sunstock. Dr. Clair received his medical degree in India and immigrated to the United States in 1983. He completed his medical residency in New York and has subsequently served in his medical practice as a solo practitioner. Dr. Clair intends to assist the Company in building long term relationships with its client base.

 

Conflicts of Interest

 

Messrs. Chang and Clair are not directors of, or sole beneficial shareholders of any other companies which have filed registration statements on Form 10 for the registration of their common stock pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act.

 

There are no binding guidelines or procedures for resolving potential conflicts of interest. Failure by management to resolve conflicts of interest in favor of the Company could result in liability of management to the Company. However, any attempt by shareholders to enforce a liability of management to the Company would most likely be prohibitively expensive and time consuming.

 

Code of Ethics. The Company has not at this time adopted a Code of Ethics pursuant to rules described in Regulation S-K. The Company has two persons who are the only shareholders and who serve as the directors and officers. The Company has limited operations and business actually does not receive any revenues or investment capital. The adoption of an Ethical Code at this time would not serve the primary purpose of such a code to provide a manner of conduct as the development, execution and enforcement of such a code would be by the same persons and only persons to whom such code applied. Furthermore, because the Company does not have any activities, there are activities or transactions which would be subject to this code. At the time the Company enters into a business combination or other corporate transaction, the current officers and directors will recommend to any new management that such a code be adopted. The Company does not maintain an Internet website on which to post a code of ethics.

 

13

 

 

Corporate Governance.

 

For reasons similar to those described above, the Company does not have a nominating, compensation nor audit committee of the board of directors. At this time, the Company consists of two shareholders who serve as the corporate directors and officers. The Company has no activities, and receives no revenues. At such time that the Company enters into a business combination and/or has additional shareholders and a larger board of directors and commences activities, the Company will propose creating committees of its board of directors, including both a nominating and an audit committee. Because there are only two shareholders of the Company, there is no established process by which shareholders to the Company can nominate members to the Company’s board of directors. Similarly, however, at such time as the Company has more shareholders and an expanded board of directors, the new management of the Company may review and implement, as necessary, procedures for shareholder nomination of members to the Company’s board of directors.

 

Compliance with Section 16(A) of the Exchange Act

 

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company’s directors, executive officers and persons who beneficially own 10% or more of a class of securities registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act to file reports of beneficial ownership and changes in beneficial ownership with the SEC. Directors, executive officers and greater than 10% stockholders are required by the rules and regulations of the SEC to furnish the Company with copies of all reports filed by them in compliance with Section 16(a).

 

Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports

 

Based solely on our review of certain reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the reports required to be filed with respect to transactions in our common stock by each person who, at any time during the 2019 and 2020 fiscal years, was a director, officer, or beneficial owner of more than 10% of our common stock, were timely, except as follows (i) Jason Chang did not timely file a Form 4 upon the following:

Sunstock is not currently required to maintain an independent director as defined by in Rule 4200 of the Nasdaq Capital Market nor does it anticipate that it will be applying for listing of its securities on an exchange in which an independent directorship is required. It is likely that neither Mr. Chang nor Dr. Clair would not be considered independent directors if it were to do so.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the shareholders and the board of directors of Sunstock, Inc.

 

Opinion on The Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Sunstock, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2019, the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2019, 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, 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2019, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Emphasis of Matter Regarding Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated 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 suffered recurring losses from operations and has an accumulated deficit that 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 audit. 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 audit 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 audit 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 opinion.

 

Our audit 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 audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

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 audit 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 audit 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 opinion.

 

Our audit 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 audit 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the board of directors and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

 

Evaluation and identification of related parties and related party transactions

 

As discussed in Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements, Jason C. Chang, the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Director, is the majority beneficial owner of the Company and is a related party. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company entered into a number of transactions with Mr. Chang, including 1) debt agreements for funds advanced to the Company for the use of settling other convertible notes payable and outstanding as of December 31, 2019; such related party debt was either repaid by the Company during the year ended December 31, 2020 or in the subsequent period, or converted into the Company’s common stock during the year ended December 31, 2020 at a price below market value, which further caused the Company to record a loss from settlement with the related party, 2) equity agreement for the issuance of Series A convertible preferred stock for cash, which was also used to repay part of the other convertible notes payable outstanding as of December 31, 2019.

 

We identified the evaluation of the identification of related parties and recording of related party transactions as a critical audit matter. Auditor judgment was involved in assessing the sufficiency of the procedures performed to identify related parties and related party transactions of the Company.

 

The following are the primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter. We evaluated the design and the operating effectiveness of certain internal controls over the Company’s related party process, including controls over the identification of the Company’s related party relationships and transactions. We performed the following procedures to evaluate the identification of related parties and recording of related party transactions by the Company:

 

  Read debt and equity agreements and contracts between the Company and the related party;
  Received confirmation from related party and compared response to the Company’s records;
  Reviewed bank and legal confirmations for reference to related party transactions and obligations;
  Reviewed material purchase and sales transactions to determine whether they may have created a related party;
  Evaluated whether transactions are occurring but are not given accounting recognition;
  Reviewed accounting records for large, unusual, or nonrecurring transactions or balances, paying particular attention to related party transactions recognized at or near December 31, 2020;
  Received third party confirmation from the Company’s stock transfer agent for all related party common and preferred stock outstanding as of December 31, 2020;
  Evaluated the price at which common stock was issued to the related party during the year ended December 31, 2020 and obtained the fair market value of the common stock from third party independent sources;
  Queried the accounts payable general ledger for transactions with related parties;
  Evaluated the Company’s reconciliation of its applicable accounts to the related parties’ records of transactions and balances;
  Read the Company’s “consents of directors in lieu of meeting” minutes of the Board of Directors;
  Inquired with executive officers, key members of management, and the Board of Directors regarding related party transactions;
  Read public filings, external news, and research sources for information related to transactions between the Company and related parties.

SUNSTOCK, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

Sunstock, Inc. (“Sunstock” or “the Company”) was incorporated on July 23, 2012, as Sandgate Acquisition Corporation, under the laws of the State of Delaware to engage in any lawful corporate undertaking, including, but not limited to, selected mergers and acquisitions. On July 18, 2013, the Company changed its’ name from Sandgate Acquisition Corporation to Sunstock, Inc. On the same date, Jason Chang and Dr. Ramnik S Clair were named as directors of the Company.

 

On October 30, 2013, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement with Dollar Store Services, Inc. to develop, design and build out a retail store which the Company opened in February 2014. The Company opened its second retail store in May 2014. On August 21, 2014 the first store was forced to close due to below code electrical wiring the landlord had provided. Perishable inventory at this store was relocated to the second store as nonperishables were moved into storage along with fixed assets. The Company’s second store was relocated in December of 2015 under lease running through June 2017 and operated on a month to month lease from then until the store was closed in September 2018. The Company currently operates no variety retail stores.

 

On October 22, 2018, Sunstock, Inc. acquired all assets and liabilities of Mom’s Silver Shop, Inc. (the “Retail Store”) located in Sacramento, California. Included in the assets acquired was approximately $60,000 in precious metals inventory and approximately $13,000 in net fixtures. Also included were any licenses and permits, customer lists, logo, trade names, signs, and websites. Financing of the purchase was by $20,056 cash, $33,000 unsecured note payable with principal payments of $1,000 per week for 33 weeks starting January 1, 2019 with 4.5% annual interest accrued on the unpaid balance (total accrued interest due August 27, 2019), and the assumption of liabilities and lease obligations. The Retail Store specializes in buying and selling gold, silver, and rare coins, and is one of the leading precious metals retailers in the greater Sacramento metropolitan area.

 

The Company’s business plan includes the buying, selling and distribution of precious metals, primarily gold. The Company pursues a “ground to coin” strategy, whereby it intends to acquires mining assets as well as rights to purchase mining production and sells these metals primarily through retail channels including their own branded coins. The company emphasizes investment in enduring assets that we believe may provide ‘resource to retail’ conversion upside. Our goal is to provide our shareholders with an exceptional opportunity to capture value in the precious metals sector without incurring many of the costs and risks associated with actual mining operations.

 

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The summary of significant accounting policies presented below is designed to assist in understanding the Company’s consolidated financial statements (“financial statements”). Such financial statements and accompanying notes are the representations of the Company’s management, who are responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) in all material respects, and have been consistently applied in preparing the accompanying financial statements.

 

F-7
 

 

USE OF ESTIMATES

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

CONCENTRATION OF RISK

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash. The Company places its cash with high quality banking institutions. The Company did not have cash balances in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit as of December 31, 2020 and 2019.

 

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

INVENTORY - COINS

 

The Company acquired the Retail Store in October 2018 to enter the market for collectible coins. The Company acquires collectible coins from both companies and individuals and then marks them up for resale. The inventory is recorded at lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory can fluctuate in relation to when it is purchased and when it is sold. Collectible coins inventory was $333,088 at December 31, 2020 compared to $134,995 at December 31, 2019.

 

At each balance sheet date, the Company evaluates its ending inventory quantities on hand and on order and records a provision for excess quantities and obsolescence. Among other factors, the Company considers historical demand and forecasted demand in relation to the inventory on hand, competitiveness of product offerings, market conditions and product life cycles when determining obsolescence and net realizable value. In addition, the Company considers changes in the market value of components in determining the net realizable value of its inventory. Provisions are made to reduce excess or obsolete inventories to their estimated net realizable values. Once established, write-downs are considered permanent adjustments to the cost basis of the excess or obsolete inventories.

 

INVENTORY - PRECIOUS METALS

 

Inventories of precious metals and coins held for investment at December 31, 2020 also include $682,511 of gold and silver bullion and bullion coins and $397,873 at December 31, 2019 and are acquired and initially recorded at fair market value. The fair market value of the bullion and bullion coins is comprised of two components: 1) published market values attributable to the costs of the raw precious metal, and 2) a published premium paid at acquisition of the metal. The premium is attributable to the additional value of the product in its finished goods form and the market value attributable solely to the premium may be readily determined, as it is published by multiple reputable sources such as Kitco.com and Apmex. The Company’s inventory is subsequently recorded at fair market values on a quarterly basis. The fair value of the inventory is determined using pricing and data derived from the markets on which the underlying commodities are traded. Precious metals commodities inventories are classified in Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy as defined later in this section. The Company has continuously experienced a shortage of cash and has had significantly past due obligations. While the Company’s preference is to hold the silver and gold bullion to achieve long-term gains, the bullion is available to pay current obligations should the Company not be able to raise cash through issuance of stock or notes payable. Thus, the Company believes that including the silver bullion in current assets under inventory is appropriate.

 

The change in fair value of the precious metals was included in the financial statements herein as recorded on the Company’s Statements of Operations as an unrealized gain in precious metals of $127,422 for the year ended December 31, 2020 and an unrealized gain of $46,514 for the year ended December 31, 2019.

 

F-8
 

 

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of 3 to 5 years. Any leasehold improvements are amortized at the lesser of the useful life of the asset or the lease term.

 

LONG-LIVED ASSETS

 

The Company reviews the carrying values of its long-lived assets for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the expected future cash flow from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized and measured using the fair value of the related asset. No impairment charges were incurred during the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019. There can be no assurance, however, that market conditions will not change or demand for the Company’s services will continue, which could result in impairment of long-lived assets in the future.

 

REVENUE RECOGNITION

 

The Company’s principal activities from which it generates revenue are product sales. Revenue is measured based on considerations specified in a contract with a customer. A contract exists when it becomes a legally enforceable agreement with a customer. These contracts define each party’s rights, payment terms and other contractual terms and conditions of the sale. Consideration is typically paid at time of sale via credit card, check, or cash when products are sold direct to consumers.

 

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct product to the customer, which for the Company is transfer of a product to customers. Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the goods that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the goods is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. The Company has concluded the sale of product and related shipping and handling are accounted for as the single performance obligation.

 

The transaction price of a contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when or as the customer receives the benefit of the performance obligation. The transaction price is determined based on the consideration to which the Company will be entitled to receive in exchange for transferring goods to the customer. We do not issue refunds.

 

F-9
 

 

REVENUE RECOGNITION (CONTINUED)

 

The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation in a contract by transferring control over a product to a customer when product is shipped based on fulfillment by the Company or when a point of sale transaction is completed. Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction, that are collected by the Company from a customer, are excluded from revenue. Shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight after control over a product has transferred to a customer are accounted for as a fulfillment cost and are included in cost of product sales. The Company does not accept returns.

 

INCOME TAXES

 

The Company accounts for income taxes and the related accounts under the liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the income tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is applied against any net deferred tax asset if, based on available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Therefore, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets. The Company’s income tax provision consists of state minimum taxes.

 

The Company recognizes any uncertain income tax positions on income tax returns at the largest amount that is more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained.

 

There are no unrecognized tax benefits included in the balance sheet that would, if recognized, affect the effective tax rate.

 

The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Company had $0 accrued for interest and penalties on each of the Company’s balance sheets at December 31, 2020 and 2019.

 

INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE

 

Basic income (loss) per share represent income (loss) available to common stockholders divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income (loss) per share reflects additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued, as well as any adjustment to income (loss) that would result from the assumed issuance. The potential common shares that may be issued by the Company relate to outstanding warrants and have been excluded from the computation of diluted income (loss) per share because they would reduce the reported loss per share and therefore have an anti-dilutive effect.

 

For the year ended December 31, 2020 there were 851,434,426 potentially dilutive shares, such as convertible preferred shares, preferred share warrants and common share warrants, that were included in the diluted income (loss) per share. For the year ended December 31, 2019, the potential common shares that may be issued by the Company relate to outstanding stock warrants and convertible preferred shares and have been excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share because they would reduce the reported loss per share and therefore have an anti-dilutive effect.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

The Company measures the fair value of certain of its financial assets on a recurring basis. A fair value hierarchy is used to rank the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

 

Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices in the markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and

 

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company’s financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, inventory – coins, inventory – precious metals, and accounts payable. The carrying amount of cash, accounts receivable, inventory – coins, inventory – precious metals, and accounts payable approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

 

RECLASSIFICATIONS

 

The Company recorded restricted cash of $150,000 as part of cash in the audited consolidated financial statements included in the December 31, 2019 10-K. The restricted cash has been listed as a separate line for December 31, 2019 in the attached balance sheet. All of the restricted cash was disbursed in the three months ended March 31, 2020. The reclassification did not affect current assets, total assets, or net loss for the year ended December 31, 2019.

 

NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN

 

The Company has not posted operating income and has not generated cash from operations since inception. It has an accumulated deficit of $60,207,491 as of December 31, 2020. The Company did not generate cash flow from operations for the years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Therefore, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations, which it has not been able to accomplish to date, and /or obtain additional financing from its stockholders and/or other third parties.

 

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to meet its obligations and continue its operations for the next fiscal year. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon financial support from its stockholders, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, successfully locating and negotiate with a business entity for the combination of that target company with the Company.

 

There is no assurance that the Company will ever be profitable. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

In the first quarter of 2020, outstanding convertible notes payable balances as of December 31, 2019, were either converted to common stock or paid off. In relation to that, the Company had discussions with a third party in regards to raising funds through a private placement of equity. Those discussions with that third party have since been terminated. The Company intends to initiate discussions with an undetermined third party in regards to raising funds through a private placement of equity which, if it occurs, will provide the Company with funds to expand its operations and likely eliminate the going concern issue.

NOTE 3 - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (Topic 740). The amendments in the update simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing the following exceptions:

 

  1 Exception to the incremental approach for intraperiod tax allocation when there is a loss from continuing operations and income or a gain from other items (for example, discontinued operations or other comprehensive income).
  2 Exception to the requirement to recognize a deferred tax liability for equity method investments when a foreign subsidiary becomes an equity method investment.
  3 Exception to the ability not to recognize a deferred tax liability for foreign subsidiary when a foreign equity method investment becomes a subsidiary.
  4 Exception to the general methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period when a year-to-date loss exceeds the anticipated loss for the year.

 

The amendments in the update also simplify the accounting for income taxes by doing the following:

 

  1 Requiring that an entity recognize a franchise tax (or similar tax) that is partially based on income as an income-based tax and account for any incremental amount incurred as a non-income-based tax.
  2 Requiring that an entity evaluate when a step up in the tax basis of goodwill should be considered part of the business combination in which the book goodwill was originally recognized and when it should be considered a separate transaction.
  3 Specifying that an entity is not required to allocate the consolidated amount of current and deferred tax expense to a legal entity that is not subject to tax in its separate financial statements. However, an entity may elect to do so (on an entity-by-entity basis) for a legal entity that is both not subject to tax and disregarded by the taxing authority.
  4 Requiring that an entity reflect the effect of an enacted change in tax laws or rates in the annual effective tax rate computation in the interim period that includes the enactment date.
  5 Making minor Codification improvements for income taxes relating to employee stock ownership plans and investments in qualified affordable housing projects accounted for by using the equity method.

 

The amendments in this ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The Company adopted the amendment as of January 1, 2019.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued its new lease accounting guidance in ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). Under the new guidance, lessees will be required to recognize the following for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date: A lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. Under the new guidance, lessor accounting is largely unchanged. Certain targeted improvements were made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model and ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

 

The new lease guidance simplified the accounting for sale and leaseback transactions primarily because lessees must recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. Lessees will no longer be provided with a source of off-balance sheet financing. Public business entities should apply the amendments in ASU 2016-02 for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted. Lessees (for capital and operating leases) must apply a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The modified retrospective approach would not require any transition accounting for leases that expired before the earliest comparative period presented. Lessees may not apply a full retrospective transition approach. The primary impact to the financial position upon adoption was the recognition, on a discounted basis, of the minimum commitments on the balance sheet under our noncancelable operating lease resulting in the recording of a right of use asset and lease obligation.

LITIGATION

 

On August 21, 2020, Boustead Securities, LLC (“Boustead”) filed suit against Sunstock, Inc. (“Sunstock”) in the County of Orange, California. Boustead is an investment banking firm engaged by Sunstock on September 19, 2019 to raise equity. Boustead maintains that Sunstock owes it 87,179,487 shares of Preferred Stock Warrants and 9,230,769 shares of Common Stock Warrants. Boustead is also seeking general damages, interest, and costs of the suit. Sunstock believes that Boustead has not fulfilled its obligations in raising equity and plans to vigorously contest the suit. Sunstock has hired an arbitrator and is currently in negotiations with Boustead.

 

In December 2020, a former employee of Sunstock filed a claim with the California Labor Commission regarding claimed back pay owed. A preliminary hearing was held on January 4, 2021 and the Company is currently awaiting the next step.

 

INDEMNITIES AND GUARANTEES

 

The Company has made certain indemnities and guarantees, under which it may be required to make payments to a guaranteed or indemnified party, in relation to certain actions or transactions. The Company indemnifies its directors, officers, employees and agents, as permitted under the laws of the State of Delaware. In connection with its facility leases, the Company has agreed to indemnify its lessors for certain claims arising from the use of the facilities. The duration of the guarantees and indemnities varies, and is generally tied to the life of the agreement. These guarantees and indemnities do not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential future payments the Company could be obligated to make. Historically, the Company has not been obligated nor incurred any payments for these obligations and, therefore, no liabilities have been recorded for these indemnities and guarantees in the accompanying balance sheets.

NOTE 10 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES

 

The Company evaluates its debt instruments, or other contracts to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for under the relevant sections of ASC Topic 815-40, Derivative Instruments and Hedging: Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity. The result of this accounting treatment could be that the fair value of a financial instrument is classified as a derivative instrument and is marked-to-market at each balance sheet date and recorded as a liability. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, the change in fair value is recorded in the statement of operations as other income or other expense. Upon conversion or exercise of a derivative instrument, the instrument is marked to fair value at the conversion date and then that fair value is reclassified to equity. Financial instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to reclassification under ASC Topic 815-40 are reclassified to a liability account at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date.

 

The Company applies the accounting standard that provides guidance for determining whether an equity-linked financial instrument, or embedded feature, is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The standard applies to any freestanding financial instrument or embedded features that have the characteristics of a derivative, and to any freestanding financial instruments that are potentially settled in an entity’s own common stock.

 

From time to time, the Company has issued notes with embedded conversion features. Certain of the embedded conversion features contain price protection or anti-dilution features that result in these instruments being treated as derivatives for accounting purposes. Accordingly, the Company has classified all conversion features as derivative liabilities. All convertible notes with derivative liabilities were either converted to common stock or were settled by payment as of December 31, 2020.

 

The following table presents the changes in fair value of our embedded conversion features measured at fair value on a recurring basis for the year ended December 31, 2020:

 

Balance December 31, 2019   $ 3,240,220  
Elimination of fair value due to elimination of debt     (3,240,220 )
Balance as of December 31, 2020   $ -

NOTE 13 – TEMPORARY EQUITY

 

The Company issued 1,000,000,000 and no shares of Series A convertible preferred stock for the years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Shares of Series A convertible preferred stock hold conversion features providing that, at the holder’s election, the holder may convert the preferred stock into common stock. Upon conversion, the Company may be required to deliver a variable number of equity shares that is determined by using a formula based on the market price of the Company’s common stock. The right of the preferred shareholder to convert into common shares shall commence as of the date the shares are issued to the shareholder. In the event the preferred shareholder elects to convert, the preferred shareholder shall have 60 days from the date of such notice in which to render his shares of preferred stock to the Company. The conversion rate shall be the greater of (i) one fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock if the market value of the common stock is at or above $0.001 per share, or (ii) if the market value of the common stock is below $0.001, a number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock equal to an amount of preferred shares multiplied by the conversion ratio of $0.001 divided by the market value, at the discretion of the preferred shareholder. Market value shall mean the closing bid price for the common stock on such previous day’s close of the common stock. The conversion rate and conversion price may be adjusted upon subdivision (by any share split, share dividend, recapitalization, for example), combination (by combination, reverse share split, for example), or any recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, or other similar transaction. There is no contractual cap on the number of common shares that the Company could be required to deliver on preferred shareholders’ conversions to common stock. Accordingly, Series A preferred stock has been classified as temporary equity. As of December 31, 2020, the Company’s stock price was $0.0024 per share.

NOTE 14 - INCOME TAXES (CONTINUED)

 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of the Company’s deferred tax assets are as follows:

 

    December 31, 2020     December 31, 2019  
Deferred tax assets:                
NOL’s   $ 1,757,000     $ 1,896,427

Valuation allowance     (16,455,000 )     (14,852,754 )
Net deferred tax assets   $ -     $ -  

 

Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon future earnings, if any, the timing and amount of which are uncertain. Accordingly, the net deferred tax assets have been fully offset by a valuation allowance. The valuation allowance decreased by approximately $719,000 for the year ended December 31, 2020.

 

As of December 31, 2020, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes of approximately $6,350,000 which expire beginning in the year 2033. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards for state income tax purposes of approximately $4,800,000 which expire beginning in the year 2033.

 

Utilization of the net operating losses may be subject to substantial annual limitation due to federal and state ownership change limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code and similar state provisions. Such annual limitations could result in the expiration of the net operating losses ad credits before their utilization. The Company has not performed an analysis to determine the limitation of the net operating loss carryforwards.

 

The Company has not filed any federal or state tax returns since its inception, but intends to file them in 2021.

 

NOTE 15 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

The Company follows the guidance in FASB ASC Topic 855, Subsequent Events (“ASC 855”), which provides guidance to establish general standards of accounting for and disclosures of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the consolidated financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. ASC 855 sets forth (i) the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity evaluates events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the audited consolidated financial statements, (ii) the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its consolidated financial statements, and (iii) the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date.

 

The full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak continues to evolve as of the date of this report. Management is actively monitoring the global situation on its financial condition, liquidity operations, suppliers, industry, and workforce. Given the daily evolution of the COVID-19 outbreak and the global responses to curb its spread, the Company is not able to estimate the effects of the COVID-19 outbreak on its results of operations, financial condition or liquidity for the fiscal year 2020. However, to date there has not been a decrease in sales. The Company believes that in this time of uncertainty, individuals are buying collectible coins as a safe haven. The Company is unable to predict if such buying will continue during this time of uncertainty or if the buying will decrease as events change and evolve.

 

On February 16, 2021, 400,000,000 shares of convertible preferred stock were converted to 400,000,000 shares of common stock by the Company’s CEO. No convertible preferred stock was outstanding after the conversion.
