NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. | Organization, Nature of Business, Going Concern and Management Plans |
Organization and Nature of Business
Chess Supersite Corporation ("Chess Supersite" or "the Company") was incorporated on July 2, 2013 under the laws of the state of Delaware to engage in any lawful corporate undertaking, including, but not limited to, selected mergers and acquisitions. The Company’s current business comprises the operation of an extensive Chess gaming website. This comprehensive user friendly web site www.chessstars.com, is currently offering a state-of-the-art playing zone, broadcasts of the major tournaments, intuitive mega database, chess skilled contests and much more.
In May, 2014, the Company effected a change in control by the redemption of the stock held by its original shareholders, the issuance of shares of its common stock to new shareholders, the resignation of its original officers and directors and the appointment of new officers and directors.
On July 6, 2015, the Company filed its form S-1/A, to amend its form S-1 previously filed on January 26, 2015 and December 11, 2014. The prospectus relates to the offer and sale of 1,500,000 shares of common stock (the “Shares”) of the Company, $0.0001 par value per share, offered by the holders thereof (the “Selling Shareholder Shares”), who are deemed to be statutory underwriters. The selling shareholders will offer their shares at a price of $0.50 per share, until the Company’s common stock is listed on a national securities exchange or is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board (or a successor); after which, the selling shareholders may sell their shares at prevailing market or privately negotiated prices, including (without limitation) in one or more transactions that may take place by ordinary broker’s transactions, privately-negotiated transactions or through sales to one or more dealers for resale.
On July 13, 2015, the Company received a notice of effectiveness from the SEC for the registration of its shares.
On September 22, 2015, the Company was able to secure an OTC Bulletin Board symbol CHZP from Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA).
Going Concern and Management Plans
The Company has not yet generated significant revenue since inception to date and has sustained operating losses during the three months ended March 31, 2017. The Company had working capital deficit of $2,341,400 and an accumulated deficit of $5,995,932 as of March 31, 2017. The Company's continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations and/or obtaining additional financing from its members or other sources, as may be required.
The unaudited condensed interim financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern; however, the above condition raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to do so. The condensed unaudited 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 order to maintain its current level of operations, the Company will require additional working capital from either cash flow from operations or from the sale of its equity. However, the Company currently has no commitments from any third parties for the purchase of its equity. If the Company is unable to acquire additional working capital, it will be required to significantly reduce its current level of operations.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited condensed interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the SEC and are expressed in US dollars. Accordingly, the unaudited condensed interim financial statements do not include all information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete annual financial statements. The unaudited condensed interim financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation. Interim operating results are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2017 or for any other interim period. The unaudited condensed interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of the Company and the notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016.
Reclassification of comparative figures
Certain of the prior period figures have been reclassified to align with Management’s current view of the Company’s operations.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the unaudited condensed interim financial statements in conformity with US GAAP 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 unaudited condensed financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Estimates may include those pertaining to accruals. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
Intangible Assets
Identifiable intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives and are reviewed for impairment whenever facts and circumstances indicate that their carrying values may not be fully recoverable. The intangible assets with definite lives are being amortized over its estimated useful lives of 10 years using the straight-line method.
Revenue recognition
In accordance with ASC 605, revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been performed, the amount is fixed and determinable, and collection is reasonably assured.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
The Company evaluated all recent accounting pronouncements issued and determined that the adoption of these pronouncements would not have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

CHESS SUPERSITE CORPORATION
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any outstanding shares of preferred stock, the holders of common stock are entitled to share ratably in dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the board of directors in its discretion from funds legally available therefor.
Holders of common stock have no pre-emptive rights to purchase the Company’s common stock. There are no conversion or redemption rights or sinking fund provisions with respect to the common stock. The Company may issue additional shares of common stock which could dilute its current shareholder's share value.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2017, the Company issued 4,000,000 shares of common stock to individuals as consideration for advisory and consultancy services amounting to $36,000 which were recorded at fair value. All services have been performed as of March 31, 2017.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2017, the Company issued 12,059,741 and 1,857,000 shares of common stock to individuals on conversion of convertible promissory notes amounting to $20,741 and $5,385, respectively.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2017, the Company issued 20,000,000 shares of common stock each to Rubin Schindermann and Alexander Starr as consideration to settle outstanding management fee in the amount of $50,000 each, which were recorded at fair value.
Shares to be issued represent 80,000 shares of common stock to be issued as compensation to advisers and consultants. These were recorded at fair value of $52,000, based on the market price of the Company’s stock on the date of issue.
Preferred Stock
Shares of preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series as may be determined by the board of directors. The board of directors may fix the designation, powers, preferences and rights of the shares of each such series and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof without any further vote or action by the stockholders of the Company, except that no holder of preferred stock shall have pre-emptive rights. Any shares of preferred stock so issued would typically have priority over the common stock with respect to dividend or liquidation rights. The board of directors does not at present intend to seek stockholder approval prior to any issuance of currently authorized stock, unless otherwise required by law or otherwise.
7. | Loss Per Share |
FASB ASC 260, Earnings Per Share provides for calculations of “basic” and “diluted” earnings per share. Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity similar to fully diluted earnings per share. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.
8. | Subsequent Events |
The Company’s management has evaluated subsequent events up to May 15, 2017, the date the financial statements were issued, pursuant to the requirements of ASC 855 and has determined the following material subsequent events:

Overview

The Company registered its common stock on a Form 10 registration statement filed pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") and Rule 12(g) thereof. The Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission periodic and current reports under Rule 13(a) of the Exchange Act, including quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and annual reports Form 10-K.
In May, 2014, the Company effected a change in control by the redemption of the stock held by its original shareholders, the issuance of shares of its common stock to new shareholders, the resignation of its original officers and directors and the appointment of new officers and directors.
The Company issued 1,000,000 shares of its common stock pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 at par representing 66.7% of the total outstanding 1,500,000 shares of common stock as follows:

Business and Plan of Operations
The Company operates an online chess site featuring sophisticated playing zones, game broadcasts with software analyses and top analysts' commentaries, education and other chess oriented resources. We believe that chess players have two major needs: (i) to play against each other and (ii) to watch chess matches between to players including Grandmasters. To meet that need, we have developed “Chess Stars” as an interactive and educational website that allows chess players to play online, watch broadcasted chess tournaments, learn to play and improve their skills and to participate in our patent-pending “Choose Your Moves and Win” contests. Utilizing advanced two-tier architecture, “Chess Stars” can support virtually an unlimited range of content and services designed to attract viewers. With a model similar to that of TV poker, viewers are able to see an odds matrix for any position on the chess board. Percentage of success for each move is based on statistics, computer analysis and our proprietary value calculations. The viewing of chess games is particularly adaptable to the Internet to allow for real time or archival viewing while enjoying the comments, announcements and analyses of top chess experts. We anticipate we will be able to deliver high quality viewing and game-playing experiences featuring broadcasts of top worldwide games, education, interactivity, playing and other services and facilitate the emergence of chess as a mainstream sport.
In October 2016, we started our Chess Stars Club Membership Program. Club members enjoy free entry to all events, including our cash prize events. Club membership costs $12.95 per month or $99.00 per year. At the present time, we have sold 93 Club memberships. We have derived our revenues at date from the sale of Club memberships and our live events such as Chess Stars Camps, live chess tournaments and Chess Festivals with attendees paying on the average of $50.00 per person.
We have spent approximately $470k on software development and have issued shares fair valued at approximately $1.9mn to consultants and advisors. These expenses have been partially capitalized as Intangible Assets and the remaining part has been reported by us on the statement of operations as website development, software development and advisory and consulting expenses, and represent a major value to the Company and its investors.
The Company, acquired certain assets (the “Acquisition”) of Chess Supersite, Inc., a corporation existing under the laws of Ontario, Canada. The Acquisition was consummated pursuant to the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) dated July 23, 2014 and in exchange for the issuance of 5,000,000 shares of common stock to Chess Supersite, Inc. The purpose of the Acquisition was to develop the Company’s business and build substantive operations from this initial base of assets, as well as to facilitate and prepare the Company for a registration statement and/or public offering of securities. On December 11, 2014 the Company filed a form 8-K, changing the status of the company from shell to operating.
During the current period, the Company has started to generate revenues. There is currently no income or cash flows from operations, however due to the high initial costs. The Company's independent auditors have substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. At present, continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon financial support from its stockholders and its ability to obtain necessary equity financing to continue its operations.
On July 6, 2015, the Company filed its form S-1/A, to amend its form S-1 previously filed on January 26, 2015 and December 11, 2014. This prospectus relates to the offer and sale of 1,500,000 shares of common stock (the “Shares”) of Chess Supersite Corporation. (the “Company”), $0.0001 par value per share, offered by the holders thereof (the “Selling Shareholder Shares”), who are deemed to be statutory underwriters. The selling shareholders will sell the shares offered herein at the fixed price of $0.50 per share for the duration of the offering.
The maximum number of Shares that can be sold pursuant to the terms of this offering by the selling shareholders is (in aggregate) 1,500,000 Shares. Funds received by the selling shareholders will be immediately available to such selling shareholders for use by them. The Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Selling Shareholder Shares.
On July 13, 2015, the Company received a notice of effectiveness from the SEC for the registration of its shares.
On September 22, 2015, the Company was able to secure a OTC Bulletin Board symbol CHZP from Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA).

Expenses
Our expenses are classified primarily into advisory and consultancy fee, salaries and wages, legal and professional fees, software development expense and website development and marketing expense.

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At March 31, 2017, we had a working capital deficit of $2,341,400. We are actively seeking various financing operations to meet the working capital requirements.
To date we have relied on third parties to provide financing for our operations by way of private placements. The proceeds may not be sufficient to effectively develop our business to the fullest extent to allow us to maximize our revenue potential, in which case, we will need additional capital.

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to stockholders.
Critical Accounting Policies
Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been performed, the amount is fixed and determinable, and collection is reasonably assured.
Other critical accounting policies are described in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
Smaller reporting companies are not required to provide the information required by this item.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”), the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2017 to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
Changes in internal controls
No change in our system of internal control over financial reporting occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2017 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
There are no legal proceedings against the Company and the Company is unaware of such proceedings contemplated against it.
