CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may include our statements regarding our goals, beliefs, strategies, objectives, plans, including product and service developments, future financial conditions, results or projections or current expectations. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential” or “continue,” the negative of such terms, or other comparable terminology. For example, when we discuss our pursuit of strategic transactions including acquisitions, dispositions, capital raising and debt restructuring, that our revenues will increase in 2020, and that we intend to invest in sales, marketing, product development and innovation, we are using forward-looking statements. These statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors that may cause actual results to be materially different from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to, our ability to implement our strategic initiatives, economic, political and market conditions and fluctuations, government and industry regulation, interest rate risk, U.S. and global competition, and other factors. Most of these factors are difficult to predict accurately and are generally beyond our control. You should consider the areas of risk described in connection with any forward-looking statements that may be made herein. The business and operations of Thunder Energies Corporation are subject to substantial risks, which increase the uncertainty inherent in the forward-looking statements contained in this report. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to release publicly the result of any revision to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. Further information on potential factors that could affect our business is described under “Item 1A.

THUNDER ENERGIES CORPORATION
Notes to Condensed Financial Statements
For the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020 and 2019
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS
Corporate History and Background
Thunder Energies Corporation (“we”, “us”, “our”, “TEC” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Florida on April 21, 2011.
On July 29, 2013, the Company filed with the Florida Secretary of State, Articles of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation (the “Amendment”) which changed the name of the Company from CCJ Acquisition Corp. to Thunder Fusion Corporation. The Amendment also changed the principal office address of the Company to 150 Rainville Road, Tarpon Springs, Florida 34689. On May 1, 2014, the Company filed with the Florida Secretary of State, Articles of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation (the “Amendment”) which changed the name of the Company from Thunder Fusion Corporation to Thunder Energies Corporation. The Company subsequently changed its principal office address to 3017 Greene St., Hollywood, Florida 33020.
Acquisition of TNRG Preferred Stock
On July 1, 2020, Yogev Shvo, a third party individual and principal shareholder of Nature Consulting LLC (“Nature” or “Purchaser”) personally acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of preferred stock (the “Preferred Stock”) of TNRG from Saveene Corporation, a Florida corporation (the “Seller”) (The “Purchase”). The purchase price of $250,000 for the Preferred Stock was paid in cash and was provided from the individual private funds of Purchaser.
The Preferred Stock acquired by the Purchaser consisted of:
1. | 50,000,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock wherein each share is entitled to fifteen (15) votes and converts into ten (10) shares of the Company’s common stock. | |
2. | 5,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock wherein each share is entitled to one thousand (1,000) votes and converts into one thousand (1,000) shares of the Company’s common stock. | |
3. | 10,000 shares of Series C Non-Convertible Preferred Stock wherein each share is entitled to one thousand (1,000) votes and is non-convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock. |
Acquisition of Assets of Nature
On August 14, 2020 (the “Closing Date”), TNRG and the members of Nature entered into an Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Interest Purchase Agreement”), which closed on the same date. Pursuant to the terms of the Interest Purchase Agreement, the members of Nature sold all of their membership interests in Nature to TNRG in exchange for sixty million (60,000,000) shares of TNRG’s Common Stock. As a result of this transaction, Nature became a wholly-owned subsidiary of TNRG.
The Interest Purchase Agreement contained customary representations and warranties and pre- and post-closing covenants of each party and customary closing conditions. Breaches of the representations and warranties will be subject to customary indemnification provisions, subject to specified aggregate limits of liability.
The membership Interest Purchase Agreement will be treated as an asset acquisition by the Company for financial accounting purposes. Nature will be considered the acquirer for accounting purposes, and the historical financial statements of Nature, before the membership exchange will replace the historical financial statements of TNRG before the membership exchange and in all future filings with the SEC.

Immediately following the Interest Purchase Agreement, the business of Nature became TNRG’s main operation. Nature is the premier source of turnkey CBD and Hemp extract solutions. The Company was formed on January 19, 2019.

Going Concern
The Company had accumulated earnings of approximately $624,000 at September 30, 2020, had a working capital deficit of approximately $963,000 at September 30, 2020, had net loss of approximately $102,000 and approximately $282,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, net income of approximately $722,000 and a net loss of $167,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and net cash provided by operating activities of approximately $520,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and net cash used in operating activities of approximately $155,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, with limited revenue earned since inception, and a lack of operational history. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company’s financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating cost and allow it to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations.
In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plan to obtain such resources for the Company include, obtaining capital from management and significant stockholders sufficient to meet its minimal operating expenses. However, management cannot provide any assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans.
There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain sufficient additional funds when needed or that such funds, if available, will be obtainable on terms satisfactory to the Company. In addition, profitability will ultimately depend upon the level of revenues received from business operations. However, there is no assurance that the Company will attain profitability. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
The condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
This summary of significant accounting policies of the Company is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to GAAP and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the reported periods. Actual results may differ from those estimates and such differences may be material to the financial statements. The more significant estimates and assumptions by management include among others: inventory valuation, amortization of intangible assets, depreciation of property and equipment, allowance for doubtful accounts, the recoverability of intangibles, derivative valuation, and lease asset amortization. The current economic environment has increased the degree of uncertainty inherent in these estimates and assumptions.

Reverse Stock Split
On May 14, 2019, the Board of Directors of the Company approved Articles of Amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation that provided for a 1 for 20 reverse stock split of the Company’s Common Stock. The Company’s Articles of Amendment were filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Florida on May 17, 2019. The effective date of the reverse stock split was subject to approval by FINRA, and the reverse stock split was published to the market and effective on June 24, 2019. At the effective time of the reverse stock split, every 20 issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock were automatically combined into one issued and outstanding share of common stock, without any change in the par value per share or number of authorized shares of Common Stock. All share and per share amounts contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the accompanying Financial Statements have been adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split for all prior periods presented.
Cash
The Company’s cash is held in bank accounts in the United States and is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $250,000. The Company has not experienced any cash losses.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are non-interest-bearing obligations due under normal course of business. Management reviews accounts receivable on a monthly basis to determine if any receivables will be potentially uncollectible. Historical bad debts and current economic trends are used in evaluating the allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company includes any accounts receivable balances that are determined to be uncollectible in its overall allowance for doubtful accounts. After all attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written off against the allowance. Based on the information available, the Company has an allowance for doubtful accounts of $28,700 and $29,548 as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.
Cash Flows Reporting
The Company follows ASC 230, Statement of Cash Flows, for cash flows reporting, classifies cash receipts and payments according to whether they stem from operating, investing, or financing activities and provides definitions of each category, and uses the indirect or reconciliation method (“Indirect method”) as defined by ASC 230, Statement of Cash Flows, to report net cash flow from operating activities by adjusting net income to reconcile it to net cash flow from operating activities by removing the effects of (a) all deferrals of past operating cash receipts and payments and all accruals of expected future operating cash receipts and payments and (b) all items that are included in net income that do not affect operating cash receipts and payments.
Related Parties
The Company follows ASC 850, “Related Party Disclosures,” for the identification of related parties and disclosure of related party transactions. Related parties are any entities or individuals that, through employment, ownership or other means, possess the ability to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of the Company.
Income Taxes
As a result of the Company’s Interest Purchase Agreement, the Company converted to a corporation (“Conversion”). Beginning on August 14, 2020, the Company’s results of operations are taxed as a C Corporation. Prior to the Conversion, the Company’s operations were taxed as a limited liability company, whereby the Company elected to be taxed as a partnership and the income or loss was required to be reported by each respective member on their separate income tax returns. Therefore, no provision for income taxes has been provided in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for periods prior to August 14, 2020.
11 |
The unaudited computation of income taxes included in the Statements of Operations, represents the tax effects that would have been reported had the Company been subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes as a corporation for all periods presented. Taxes are based upon the statutory income tax rates and adjustments to income for estimated permanent differences occurring during each period. Actual rates and expenses could have differed had the Company actually been subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes for all periods presented.
Income taxes are accounted for under an asset and liability approach. This process involves calculating the temporary and permanent differences between the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. The temporary differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which would be recorded on the Balance Sheets in accordance with ASC 740, which established financial accounting and reporting standards for the effect of income taxes. The likelihood that its deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income must be assessed and, to the extent that recovery is not likely, a valuation allowance is established. Changes in the valuation allowance in a period are recorded through the income tax provision in the consolidated Statements of Operations.
ASC 740-10-30 was adopted from the date of its inception. ASC 740-10 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity’s consolidated financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attributes for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740-10, the impact of an uncertain income tax position on the income tax return must be recognized 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. Additionally, ASC 740-10 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. As a result of the implementation of ASC 740-10 and currently, the Company does not have a liability for unrecognized income tax benefits.
Advertising and Marketing Expenses
Advertising and marketing expenses are recorded as marketing expenses when they are incurred. Advertising and marketing expense was $151,600 and $325,245, and $130,239 and $222,114 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Revenue Recognition
On January 19, 2019 (date of formation), the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification ASC 606 (“ASC 606”), Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Results for the reporting periods beginning on January 19, 2019 (date of formation) are presented under ASC 606.
The Company generates all of its revenue from contracts with customers. The Company recognizes revenue when we satisfy a performance obligation by transferring control of the promised services to a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration that we expect to receive in exchange for those services. The Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps:
1. | Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer. | |
2. | Identification of the performance obligations in the contract. | |
3. | Determination of the transaction price. | |
4. | Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract | |
5. | Recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation. |
At contract inception, the Company assesses the services promised in our contracts with customers and identifies a performance obligation for each promise to transfer to the customer a service (or bundle of services) that is distinct. To identify the performance obligations, the Company considers all of the services promised in the contract regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or are implied by customary business practices. The Company allocates the entire transaction price to a single performance obligation.
12 |
A description of our principal revenue generating activities are as follows:
Other sales – The Company offers consumer CBD and hemp products through its online websites. During the nine months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded other sales of $3,522,961 and $1,747,931, respectively.
Mask sales – As a result of the COVID 19 pandemic, in 2020, the Company entered into the sale of KN95 masks but had to dispose of them at a loss. During the nine months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded mask sales of $3,054,201 and $0, respectively.
The Company evaluates whether it is appropriate to record the gross amount of product sales and related costs or the net amount earned as commissions. Generally, when the Company is primarily obligated in a transaction, are subject to inventory risk, have latitude in establishing prices and selecting suppliers, or have several but not all of these indicators, revenue is recorded at the gross sale price. The Company generally records the net amounts as commissions earned if we are not primarily obligated and do not have latitude in establishing prices.
Revenue is recognized when the product is shipped to the customer, provided that collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. The Company primarily provides for no credit terms as it collects a deposit of 50% upon order and requires the remaining 50% be paid before the order is shipped. When credit terms are granted, terms of up to 120 days are provided, based on credit evaluations. No allowance has been provided for uncollectible accounts. Management has evaluated the receivables and believes they are collectible based on the nature of the receivables, historical experience of credit losses, and all other currently available evidence. Discounts are recorded as a reduction of the transaction price. Revenue excludes any amounts collected on behalf of third parties, including sales taxes.
Customer Advance Payments
Customer advance payments consists of customer orders paid in advance of the delivery of the order. Customer advance payments are classified as short-term as the typical order ships within approximately three weeks of placing the order. Customer advance payments are recognized as revenue when the product is shipped to the customer and all other revenue recognition criteria have been met. Customer advance payments were $436,699 and $73,836, as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, which were recognized as revenue during the subsequent period. Customer advance payments are included in current liabilities in the accompanying condensed consolidated Balance Sheets.
Inventories
The Company manufactures its own products made to order and when completed are shipped to the customer. The Company's inventories are valued by the first-in, first-out ("FIFO") cost method and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The Company had inventory of $52,184 and $57,364, mostly consisting finished goods, as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are carried at cost and are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally five years. The cost of repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred; major replacements and improvements are capitalized. When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in income in the year of disposition. Fixed assets are examined for the possibility of decreases in value when events or changes in circumstances reflect the fact that their recorded value may not be recoverable.
13 |
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets consist primarily of developed technology – website applications. Our intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of five years.
Impairment of Long-lived Assets
We periodically evaluate whether the carrying value of property, equipment and intangible assets has been impaired when circumstances indicate the carrying value of those assets may not be recoverable. The carrying amount is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. If the carrying value is not recoverable, the impairment loss is measured as the excess of the asset’s carrying value over its fair value. There are no impairments as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.
Our impairment analyses require management to apply judgment in estimating future cash flows as well as asset fair values, including forecasting useful lives of the assets, assessing the probability of different outcomes, and selecting the discount rate that reflects the risk inherent in future cash flows. If the carrying value is not recoverable, we assess the fair value of long-lived assets using commonly accepted techniques, and may use more than one method, including, but not limited to, recent third-party comparable sales and discounted cash flow models. If actual results are not consistent with our assumptions and estimates, or our assumptions and estimates change due to new information, we may be exposed to an impairment charge in the future.
Leases
In accordance with ASC 842, Leases, the Company determines whether an arrangement contains a lease at inception. A lease is a contract that provides the right to control an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. For identified leases, the Company determines whether it should be classified as an operating or finance lease. Operating leases are recorded in the balance sheet as: right-of-use asset (“ROU asset”) and operating lease liability. ROU asset represents the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liability represents the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement date of the lease and measured based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The ROU asset also includes deferred rent liabilities. The Company’s lease arrangement generally do not provide an implicit interest rate. As a result, in such situations the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The Company includes options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that it will exercise that option in the measurement of its ROU asset and liability. Lease expense for the operating lease is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company has a lease agreement with lease and non-lease components, which are accounted for as a single lease component.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The provisions of accounting guidance, FASB Topic ASC 825 requires all entities to disclose the fair value of financial instruments, both assets and liabilities recognized and not recognized on the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate fair value, and defines fair value of a financial instrument as the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. As of September 30, 2020, the fair value of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and notes payable approximated carrying value due to the short maturity of the instruments, quoted market prices or interest rates which fluctuate with market rates.
14 |
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, as follows:
• | Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
• | Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in 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. |
• | Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities |
The carrying value of financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value is measured on a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a non-recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value when a significant event occurs. There were no financial assets or liabilities carried and measured on a nonrecurring basis during the reporting periods. Financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis are those that are adjusted to fair value each time a financial statement is prepared. There have been no transfers between levels.
The derivatives are evaluated under the hierarchy of ASC 480-10, ASC Paragraph 815-25-1 and ASC Subparagraph 815-10-15-74 addressing embedded derivatives. The fair value of the Level 3 financial instruments was performed internally by the Company using Monte Carlo valuation method.
The following table summarize the Company’s fair value measurements by level at September 30, 2020 for the assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis:
Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | ||||||||||
Derivative liability | $ | – | $ | – | $ | 124,215 | ||||||
The following table summarize the Company’s fair value measurements by level at December 31, 2019 for the assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis:
Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | ||||||||||
Derivative liability | $ | – | $ | – | $ | - | ||||||
The carrying values of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash, other current assets, accounts payable, accruals, and other current liabilities approximate their fair values due to the short period of time to maturity or repayment.
Debt
The Company issues debt that may have separate warrants, conversion features, or no equity-linked attributes.
15 |
Debt with warrants – When the Company issues debt with warrants, the Company treats the warrants as a debt discount, record as a contra-liability against the debt, and amortize the balance over the life of the underlying debt as amortization of debt discount expense in the statements of operations. When the warrants require equity treatment under ASC 815, the offset to the contra-liability is recorded as additional paid in capital in our balance sheet. When the Company issues debt with warrants that require liability treatment under ASC 815, such as a clause requiring repricing, the warrants are considered to be a derivative that is recorded as a liability at fair value. If the initial value of the warrant derivative liability is higher than the fair value of the associated debt, the excess is recognized immediately as interest expense. The warrant derivative liability is adjusted to its fair value at the end of each reporting period, with the change being recorded as expense or gain to Other (income) expense in the Statements of Operations. If the debt is retired early, the associated debt discount is then recognized immediately as amortization of debt discount expense in the statement of operations. The debt is treated as conventional debt.
Convertible debt – derivative treatment – When the Company issues debt with a conversion feature, we must first assess whether the conversion feature meets the requirements to be treated as a derivative, as follows: a) one or more underlyings, typically the price of our common stock; b) one or more notional amounts or payment provisions or both, generally the number of shares upon conversion; c) no initial net investment, which typically excludes the amount borrowed; and d) net settlement provisions, which in the case of convertible debt generally means the stock received upon conversion can be readily sold for cash. An embedded equity-linked component that meets the definition of a derivative does not have to be separated from the host instrument if the component qualifies for the scope exception for certain contracts involving an issuer’s own equity. The scope exception applies if the contract is both a) indexed to its own stock; and b) classified in shareholders’ equity in its statement of financial position.
If the conversion feature within convertible debt meets the requirements to be treated as a derivative, we estimate the fair value of the convertible debt derivative using Monte Carlo Method upon the date of issuance. If the fair value of the convertible debt derivative is higher than the face value of the convertible debt, the excess is immediately recognized as interest expense. Otherwise, the fair value of the convertible debt derivative is recorded as a liability with an offsetting amount recorded as a debt discount, which offsets the carrying amount of the debt. The convertible debt derivative is revalued at the end of each reporting period and any change in fair value is recorded as a gain or loss in the statement of operations. The debt discount is amortized through interest expense over the life of the debt.
Convertible debt – beneficial conversion feature – If the conversion feature is not treated as a derivative, we assess whether it is a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”). A BCF exists if the conversion price of the convertible debt instrument is less than the stock price on the commitment date. This typically occurs when the conversion price is less than the fair value of the stock on the date the instrument was issued. The value of a BCF is equal to the intrinsic value of the feature, the difference between the conversion price and the common stock into which it is convertible, and is recorded as additional paid in capital and as a debt discount in the balance sheet. The Company amortizes the balance over the life of the underlying debt as amortization of debt discount expense in the statement of operations. If the debt is retired early, the associated debt discount is then recognized immediately as amortization of debt discount expense in the Statement of Operations.
If the conversion feature does not qualify for either the derivative treatment or as a BCF, the convertible debt is treated as traditional debt.
Earnings per Share
The unaudited computation of net profit (loss) per share included in the Statements of Operations, represents the net profit (loss) per share that would have been reported had the Company been subject to ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share as a corporation for all periods presented.
Diluted earnings (loss) per share are computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common shares (including common stock subject to redemption) plus dilutive potential common shares outstanding for the reporting period. In periods where losses are reported, the weighted-average number of common stock outstanding excludes common stock equivalents, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
16 |
The total number of potential additional dilutive securities outstanding for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, was none since the Company had net losses and any additional potential common shares would have an anti-dilutive effect.
The following potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share because the effects were anti-dilutive based on the application of the treasury stock method and because the Company incurred net losses during the period:
September 30, 2020 | December 31, 2019 | |||||||
Options to purchase shares of common stock | – | – | ||||||
Series A convertible preferred stock | 50,000,000 | 50,000,000 | ||||||
Series B convertible preferred stock | 5,000,000 | – | ||||||
Series C convertible preferred stock | 10,000,000 | – | ||||||
Total potentially dilutive shares | 65,000,000 | 50,000,000 |
Commitments and Contingencies
The Company follows ASC 450-20, Loss Contingencies, to report accounting for contingencies. Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment can be reasonably estimated. There were no known commitments or contingencies as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.
Concentrations, Risks, and Uncertainties
Business Risk
Substantial business risks and uncertainties are inherent to an entity, including the potential risk of business failure.
The Company is headquartered and operates in the United States. To date, the Company has generated limited revenues from operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully continue to produce its products and failure to do so would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Also, the success of the Company’s operations is subject to numerous contingencies, some of which are beyond management’s control. These contingencies include general economic conditions, price of raw material, competition, and governmental and political conditions.
Interest rate risk
Financial assets and liabilities do not have material interest rate risk.
Credit risk
The Company is exposed to credit risk from its cash in banks and accounts receivable. The credit risk on cash in banks is limited because the counterparties are recognized financial institutions.
17 |
There was one customer that accounted for 10%, comprising 18.8% and 25.3%, or more of total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019. There were no customers that accounted for 10% or more of total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2020. There were two customers that accounted for 10%, comprising 30.2%, or more of total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2019. There was one customer that comprised 10%, comprising 96.0%, or more of accounts receivable at September 30, 2020. There were no customers that comprised 10% or more of accounts receivable at September 30, 2019.
Seasonality
The business is not subject to seasonal fluctuations. However, as a result of the COVID 19 pandemic, in 2020, the Company entered into the sale of KN95 masks but had to dispose of them at a loss.
Major Suppliers
In producing our supplement products, we source our ingredients from our suppliers on an ongoing as-needed basis. We have not entered into any contracts that obligate us to purchase a minimum quantity or exclusively from any food service distributor. Our supplements are manufactured at our facilities in Hollywood, Florida.
We rely on a variety of suppliers. Should the relationship with an industry vendor be interrupted or discontinued, it is believed that alternate component suppliers could be identified to support the continued advancement of the Company.
There were no suppliers that accounted for 10% or more of total expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. There were three suppliers that accounted for 10% or more, comprising 69.8% of total expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. There were no suppliers that accounted for 10% or more of total expenditures for the three months ended September 30, 2020. There were two suppliers that accounted for 10% or more, comprising 67.8% of total expenditures for the three months ended September 30, 2019. There were four suppliers that accounted for 67.2% of accounts payable at September 30, 2020 and one supplier that accounted for 78.4% of accounts payable at September 30, 2019.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurements (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. This standard removes, modifies, and adds certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. This pronouncement is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU No. 2018-13 in the first quarter of fiscal 2020, coinciding with the standard’s effective date, and the impact from this standard was immaterial.
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. This standard simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC 740, Income Taxes, while also clarifying and amending existing guidance, including interim-period accounting for enacted changes in tax law. This standard is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company plans to adopt ASU No. 2019-12 in the first quarter of fiscal 2021, coinciding with the standard’s effective date, and expects the impact from this standard to be immaterial.
Other recently issued accounting updates are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 7 – LOANS PAYABLE
Loan Payable to Shareholder
The Company borrows funds from its shareholders from time to time for working capital purposes. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $20,000. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company had additional borrowings of $77,500 and made repayments of $20,000 for a balance of $77,500 at September 30, 2020. Advances are non-interest bearing and due on demand.
Economic Injury Disaster Loan
On May 14, 2020, the Company executed the standard loan documents required for securing a loan (the “EIDL Loan”) from the SBA under its Economic Injury Disaster Loan (“EIDL”) assistance program in light of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business.
Pursuant to that certain Loan Authorization and Agreement (the “SBA Loan Agreement”), the Company borrowed an aggregate principal amount of the EIDL Loan of $150,000, with proceeds to be used for working capital purposes. Interest accrues at the rate of 3.75% per annum and will accrue only on funds actually advanced from the date of each advance. Installment payments, including principal and interest, are due monthly beginning May 14, 2021 (twelve months from the date of the SBA Note) in the amount of $731. The balance of principal and interest is payable thirty years from the date of the SBA Note. In connection therewith, the Company also received a $7,000 grant, which does not have to be repaid. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the $0 and $7,000, respectively, was recorded in Other Income in the Statements of Operations.
In connection therewith, the Company executed (i) a note for the benefit of the SBA (the “SBA Note”), which contains customary events of default and (ii) a Security Agreement, granting the SBA a security interest in all tangible and intangible personal property of the Company, which also contains customary events of default (the “SBA Security Agreement”).
Paycheck Protection Program Loan
On May 6, 2020, the Company executed a note (the “PPP Note”) for the benefit of TD Bank, N.A. (the “Lender”) in the aggregate amount of $51,065 under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”). The PPP is administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (the “SBA”). The interest rate of the loan is 1.00% per annum and accrues on the unpaid principal balance computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days. Commencing seven months after the effective date of the PPP Note, the Company is required to pay the Lender equal monthly payments of principal and interest as required to fully amortize any unforgiven principal balance of the loan by the two-year anniversary of the effective date of the PPP Note (the “Maturity Date”). The PPP Note contains customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults, making materially false or misleading representations to the SBA or the Lender, or breaching the terms of the PPP Note. The occurrence of an event of default may result in the repayment of all amounts outstanding under the PPP Note, collection of all amounts owing from the Company, or filing suit and obtaining judgment against the Company. Under the terms of the CARES Act, PPP loan recipients can apply for and be granted forgiveness for all or a portion of the loan granted under the PPP. Such forgiveness will be determined, subject to limitations, based on the use of loan proceeds for payment of payroll costs and any payments of mortgage interest, rent, and utilities. Recent modifications to the PPP by the U.S. Treasury and Congress have extended the time period for loan forgiveness beyond the original eight-week period, making it possible for the Company to apply for forgiveness of its PPP loan. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in obtaining forgiveness of the loan in whole or in part. The PPP Note of $51,065 was repaid in February 2021.

NOTE 8 – CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE
Convertible Note Payable
Short Term
On April 22, 2019, the Company executed a convertible promissory note with GHS Investments, LLC (“GHS Note”). The GHS Note carries a principal balance of $57,000 together with an interest rate of eight (8%) per annum and a maturity date of February 21, 2020. All payments due hereunder (to the extent not converted into common stock, $0.001 par value per share) in accordance with the terms of the note agreement shall be made in lawful money of the United States of America. Any amount of principal or interest on this GHS Note which is not paid when due shall bear interest at the rate of twenty two percent (22%) per annum from the due date thereof until the same is paid. As of December 31, 2019, the principal balance outstanding was $57,000.
The holder shall have the right from time to time, and at any time during the period beginning on the date which is one hundred eighty (180) days following the date of this note, to convert all or any part of the outstanding and unpaid principal amount into Common Stock. The conversion shall equal sixty-five percent (65%) of the lowest trading prices for the Common Stock during the twenty (20) day trading period ending on the latest complete trading day prior to the conversion date, representing a discount rate of thirty-five percent (35%).
On March 24, 2020, the note obligation of $120,766 held by Emry was partially sold $35,000 of the face amount to the preferred shareholder Saveene. On March 24, 2020, Saveene converted the $35,000 purchase into 5,000 shares into series B and 10,000 shares of series C shares. The face amount of the Company note obligation post the aforementioned conversions and purchases is $85,766 as of December 31, 2020.
As a result of the failure to timely file our Form 10-Q for the three month period ended September 30, 2020, the Convertible Notes Payable were in default. The Company is currently in discussions to restructure the terms of the note.
Long Term
On September 21, 2020, the Company issued a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $220,000. The convertible promissory note bears interest at 8% per annum and is due and payable in twenty-four (24) months. The holder of this note has the right, at the holder's option, upon the consummation of a sale of all or substantially all of the equity interest in the Company or private placement transaction of the Company's equity securities or securities convertible into equity securities, exclusive of the conversion of this note or any similar notes, to convert the principal amount of this note, in whole or in part, plus any interest which accrues hereon, into fully paid and nonassessable shares at a conversion price of $0.05 per share. The Note includes customary events of default, including, among other things, payment defaults, covenant breaches, certain representations and warranties, certain events of bankruptcy, liquidation and suspension of the Company’s Common Stock from trading. If such an event of default occurs, the holders of the Note may be entitled to take various actions, which may include the acceleration of amounts due under the Note and accrual of interest as described above.
The Company analyzed the conversion option in the notes for derivative accounting treatment under ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” and determined that the instrument does not qualify for derivative accounting. The Company therefore performed an analysis to determine if the conversion option was subject to a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”) and determined that the instrument does have a BCF. A BCF exists if the conversion price of the convertible debt instrument is less than the stock price on the commitment date. This typically occurs when the conversion price is less than the fair value of the stock on the date the instrument was issued. The value of a BCF is equal to the intrinsic value of the feature, the difference between the conversion price and the common stock into which it is convertible, and is recorded as additional paid in capital and as a debt discount in the Balance Sheet. As such, the proceeds of the notes were allocated, based on fair values, as $220,000 to the debt discount. The debt discount is accreted over the term of the convertible notes to interest expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated Statements of Operations.
21 |
The principal balance due at September 30, 2020 is $220,000 and is presented as a long term liability in the balance sheet of $2,712, net of unamortized debt discount of $217,288.
As a result of the failure to timely file our Form 10-Q for the three month period ended September 30, 2020, the Convertible Notes Payable were in default. On October 30, 2020, the Company entered into a Waiver Agreement (the “Agreement”) waiving the default provisions listed in the Notes related to the Company’s failure to timely file its Form 10-Q for the three month period ended September 30, 2020.
Promissory Debenture
On February 15, 2020 and on May 14, 2020, the Company entered into Promissory Agreement and Convertible Debentures (“Promissory Debentures”) with Emry for a principal sum of $70,000 (which was paid in two tranches: $50,000, paid on February 15, 2020, and $20,000, paid in April 2020) and $48,000 (which was paid in three tranches: $23,000, paid on May 14, 2020, $15,000, paid on May 22, 2020, and $10,000, paid on June 8, 2020), respectively. The Promissory Debentures bear interest, both before and after default, at 15% per month, calculated and compounded monthly. At the election of the holder, at any time during the period between the date of issuance and the one year anniversary of the Promissory Debentures, the Promissory Debentures are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at any time at a conversion price of $0.001 per share. In addition, the Promissory Debentures provide for an interest equal to 15% of the TNRG annual sales, payable on the 2nd day following the date of issuance of the Company’s audited financial statements.
On June 24, 2020, Emry, holder of (i) Promissory Debentures in principal amount of $70,000 dated February 15, 2020, and (ii) that certain convertible promissory note in principal amount of $57,000 dated April 22, 2019, sold 50% of each (Promissory Debentures and convertible promissory note), including accrued and unpaid interest, fees and penalties, in separate transactions to third party companies, SP11 Capital Investments and E.L.S.R. CORP, Florida companies, such that SP11 Capital Investments and E.L.S.R. CORP each hold 50% of each respective debt instrument.
On October 4, 2020, SP11 converted $35,000 of its Promissory Debentures at $0.01 per share into 3,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.
The Company accounts for this embedded conversion feature as a derivative under ASC 815-10-15-83 and valued separately from the note at fair value. The embedded conversion feature of the note is revalued at each subsequent reporting date at fair value and any changes in fair value will result in a gain or loss in those periods. The Company recorded derivative liability of $102,735 and $0 during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, recorded a change in derivative liability of $21,480 and $21,480, and $0 and $0 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively and has $124,215 of unamortized debt discount remaining as of September 30, 2020.
As a result of the failure to timely file our Form 10-Q for the three month period ended September 30, 2020, the Promissory Debentures were in default. The Company is currently in discussions to restructure the terms of the note.

Each share of Preferred Stock is entitled to fifteen (15) votes per share and at the election of the holder converts into ten (10) shares of Company common stock, so at completion of the stock purchase the Purchaser owns approximately 98.6% of the fully diluted outstanding equity securities of the Company and approximately 99% of the voting rights for the outstanding equity securities. The purchase price of $94,766 for the Preferred Stock was paid by the assumption of a Company note obligation of $85,766 by Emry, with the balance paid in cash. The consideration for the purchase was provided to the Purchaser from the private funds of the principal of the Purchaser. The purchase of the Preferred Stock was the result of a privately negotiated transaction and consummation of the purchase resulted in a change of control of the Company.
On March 24, 2020, the note obligation of $120,766 held by Emry was partially sold $35,000 of the face amount to the preferred shareholder Saveene. On March 24, 2020, Saveene converted the $35,000 purchase into 5,000 shares into series B and 10,000 shares of series C shares. The face amount of the Company note obligation post the aforementioned conversions and purchases is $85,766.

Each share of Preferred Stock is entitled to fifteen (15) votes per share and at the election of the holder converts into ten (10) shares of Company common stock, so at the completion of the stock purchase, the Purchaser owns approximately 98.6% of the fully diluted outstanding equity securities of the Company and approximately 99% of the voting rights for the outstanding equity securities. The purchase price of $500,000 for the Preferred Stock was paid in cash. The consideration for the purchase was provided to the Purchaser from the private funds of the principal of the Purchaser.

The consideration for the purchase was provided to the Purchaser from the private funds of the principal of the Purchaser.

Change in Control
On March 24, 2020, Saveene converted the $35,000 purchase into 5,000 shares of series B and 10,000 shares of series C shares. As a result, the Series B and C voting ownership approximates 57% and therefore, the Company has a change in ownership resulting in the recognition of a gain or loss on the sale of the interest sold and on the revaluation of any retained noncontrolling investment in accordance with ASC 810-10-40-5.

NOTE 10 – OPERATING LEASES
The Company adopted ASC 842 as of December 31, 2019. The Company has an operating lease for the Company’s warehouse and office and accounts for this lease in accordance with ASC 842. Adoption of the standard resulted in the initial recognition of operating lease ROU asset of $344,203 and operating lease liability of $344,203 as of December 31, 2019.
Effective July 1, 2019, the Company’s customer service and distribution facility is located at 3017 Greene Street, Hollywood, Florida 33020. This facility is leased in monthly installments of approximately$10,319 plus Florida Sales Tax. The monthly rent shall be increased by four percent (4%) per annum each succeeding lease year.
Operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Generally, the implicit rate of interest in arrangements is not readily determinable and the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments. The Company’s incremental borrowing rate is a hypothetical rate based on its understanding of what its credit rating would be. The operating lease ROU asset includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Our variable lease payments primarily consist of maintenance and other operating expenses from our real estate leases. Variable lease payments are excluded from the ROU assets and lease liabilities and are recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for minimum lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
24 |
We have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components. We have elected to account for these lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. We are also electing not to apply the recognition requirements to short-term leases of twelve months or less and instead will recognize lease payments as expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The components of lease expense and supplemental cash flow information related to leases for the period are as follows:
In accordance with ASC 842, the components of lease expense were as follows:

The holder of this note has the right, at the holder's option, upon the consummation of a sale of all or substantially all of the equity interest in the Company or private placement transaction of the Company's equity securities or securities convertible into equity securities, exclusive of the conversion of this note or any similar notes, to convert the principal amount of this note, in whole or in part, plus any interest which accrues hereon, into fully paid and nonassessable shares at a conversion price of $0.05 per share. The Note includes customary events of default, including, among other things, payment defaults, covenant breaches, certain representations and warranties, certain events of bankruptcy, liquidation and suspension of the Company’s Common Stock from trading. If such an event of default occurs, the holders of the Note may be entitled to take various actions, which may include the acceleration of amounts due under the Note and accrual of interest as described above.
26 |
The Company will analyze the conversion option in the notes for derivative accounting treatment under ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” and determine if the instrument qualifies for derivative accounting.
As a result of the failure to timely file our Form 10-Q for the three month period ended September 30, 2020, the Convertible Notes Payable were in default. On October 30, 2020, the Company entered into a Waiver Agreement (the “Agreement”) waiving the default provisions listed in several of the Notes related to the Company’s failure to timely file its Form 10-Q for the three month period ended September 30, 2020. The remaining Notes are in default and the Company is currently in discussions to restructure the terms of these Notes.
Paycheck Protection Program Loan Round 2
On April 2, 2021, the Company executed a note (the “PPP Note”) for the benefit of First Federal Bank (the “Lender”) in the aggregate amount of $200,000 under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) through a second draw. The PPP is administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (the “SBA”). The terms of the second draw have the same general loan terms as the first draw PPP loan.
Lawsuit
On November 3, 2020, First Capital Venture Co., a subsidiary of the client, d/b/a Diamond CBD, filed a civil complaint against Thunder Energies Corporation (the “Defendants”), in the pending 17th Judicial Circuit Court in and for Broward County, Florida, (the “Florida Court”), Case Number CACE-20-019111 (the “Complaint”).
On January 26, 2021 Plaintiffs were erroneously granted an Order of Default to which the Defendants immediately pointed out to the Court and on February 23, 2021 an Order Vacating the Default was granted in favor of the Defendants. The Plaintiff knew, or should have known, that the Order of Default was not valid but they proceeded on February 9, 2021 to publish false and misleading press releases.
Thunder Energies Corporation is proceeding through discovery and is of the belief the suit will be decided in their favor. A pending Motion to Dismiss is before the Court. Plaintiff’s Complaint is based on a claim for tortious interference and misappropriation of trade secrets. Neither claim is supported by the Complaint.
Thunder Energies Corporation has issued a cease and desist to the Plaintiff and is considering a counter claim concerning the false information and disclosures made by the Plaintiff that may have affected the Company’s business and shareholders.
The Company is unable to predict the financial outcome of this matter at this time, and any views formed as to the viability of these claims or the financial exposure which could result may change from time to time as the matter proceeds through its course. Accordingly, adjustments, if any, that might result from the resolution of this matter have not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements. However, no assurance can be made that this matter together with the potential for reputational harm, will not result in a material financial exposure, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
There were no other events subsequent to September 30, 2020, and up to the date of this filing that would require disclosure.

Effect Of Existing Or Probable Governmental Regulations On The Business
The Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018, Public Law 115-334 (the “AIA”), was signed into law on December 20, 2018. It provided a new statutory definition of “hemp” and amended the definition of marihuana under 21 U.S.C. 802(16) and the listing of tetrahydrocannabinols under 21 U.S.C. 812(c). The AIA thereby amends the regulatory controls over marihuana, tetrahydrocannabinols, and other marihuana-related constituents in the Controlled Substances Act (CSA).
This rulemaking makes four conforming changes to the Drug Enforcement Administration’s (“DEA”) existing regulations:
1. | It modifies 21 CFR 1308.11(d)(31) by adding language stating that the definition of “Tetrahydrocannabinols” does not include “any material, compound, mixture, or preparation that falls within the definition of hemp set forth in 7 U.S.C. 1639 o.” |
2. | It removes from control in schedule V under 21 CFR 1308.15(f) a “drug product in finished dosage formulation that has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration that contains cannabidiol (2-[1R-3-methyl-6R-(1-methylethenyl)-2- cyclohexen-1-yl]-5-pentyl-1,3- benzenediol) derived from cannabis and no more than 0.1% (w/w) residual tetrahydrocannabinols.” |
3. | It also removes the import and export controls described in 21 CFR 1312.30(b) over those same substances. |
4. | It modifies 21 CFR 1308.11(d)(58) by stating that the definition of “Marihuana Extract” is limited to extracts “containing greater than 0.3 percent delta-9- tetrahydrocannabinol on a dry weight basis.” This interim final rule merely conforms DEA's regulations to the statutory amendments to the CSA that have already taken effect, and it does not add additional requirements to the regulations. |
The DEA’s interim rule also includes changes how it implements the CSA:
Changes to the Definition of Tetrahydrocannabinols:
The AIA also modified the listing for tetrahydrocannabinols under 21 U.S.C. 812(c) by stating that the term tetrahydrocannabinols does not include tetrahydrocannabinols in hemp. Specifically, 21 U.S.C. 812(c) Schedule I now lists as schedule I controlled substances: ‘‘Tetrahydrocannabinols, except for tetrahydrocannabinols in hemp (as defined under section 1639o of Title 7).’’ Therefore, the AIA limits the control of tetrahydrocannabinols (for Controlled Substance Code Number 7370). For tetrahydrocannabinols that are naturally occurring constituents of the plant material, Cannabis sativa L., any material that contains 0.3% or less of D9-THC by dry weight is not controlled, unless specifically controlled elsewhere under the CSA. Conversely, for tetrahydrocannabinols that are naturally occurring constituents of Cannabis sativa L., any such material that contains greater than 0.3% of D9-THC by dry weight remains a controlled substance in schedule I. The AIA does not impact the control status of synthetically derived tetrahydrocannabinols (for Controlled Substance Code Number 7370) because the statutory definition of ‘‘hemp’’ is limited to materials that are derived from the plant Cannabis sativa L. For synthetically derived tetrahydrocannabinols, the concentration of D9- THC is not a determining factor in whether the material is a controlled substance. All synthetically derived tetrahydrocannabinols remain schedule I controlled substances. This rulemaking is modifying 21 CFR 1308.11(d) to reflect this statutory change. By this rulemaking, 21 CFR 1308.11(d)(31) is being modified via the addition of subsection (11) which reads: “Tetrahydrocannabinols does not include any material, compound, mixture, or preparation that falls within the definition of hemp set forth in 7 U.S.C. 1639o.”
35 |
Stated simply, the above language from the DEA provides that any cannabis or cannabis derivative containing more than 0.3% ∆-9 THC fails to meet the AIA definition of hemp and therefore remains a controlled substance under the CSA. In other words, this proposed rule directly conflicts with the AIA’s definition of hemp which defines hemp as the “plant Cannabis sativa L and any part of that plant including the seeds thereof and all derivatives, extracts, cannabinoids, isomers, acids, salts, and salts of isomers, whether growing or not, with a delat-9 tetrahydrocannabinol concentration of not more than .3 percent on a dry weight basis.” 7 U.S.C definition § 1639o, subsection 1. Further, Congress expressly exempted hemp derivatives and hemp extracts from the federal Controlled Substances Act, as well as “hemp” itself: “(A) Subject to subparagraph (B), the term “marihuana” means all parts of the plant Cannabis sativa L., whether growing or not; the seeds thereof; the resin extracted from any part of such plant; and every compound, manufacture, salt, derivative, mixture, or preparation of such plant, its seeds or resin. (B) The term "marihuana" does not include— (i) hemp, as defined in section 1639o of title 7; or (ii) the mature stalks of such plant, fiber produced from such stalks, oil or cake made from the seeds of such plant, any other compound, manufacture, salt, derivative, mixture, or preparation of such stalks (except the resin extracted therefrom), fiber, oil, or cake, or the sterilized seed of such plant which is incapable of germination.” See 21 U.S.C. 802, subdivision (16). Further, Congress also expressly exempted the AIA’s definition of “hemp,” “hemp derivatives,” and “hemp extracts” from the Controlled Substances Act list of Schedule 1 drugs providing: “(c) Unless specifically excepted or unless listed in another schedule, any material, compound, mixture, or preparation, which contains any quantity of the following hallucinogenic substances, or which contains any of their salts, isomers, and salts of isomers whenever the existence of such salts, isomers, and salts of isomers is possible within the specific chemical designation: (17) Tetrahydrocannabinols, except for tetrahydrocannabinols in hemp (as defined under section 297A of the Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946 [7 USCS § 1639o]).” See 21 U.S.C. 812, subdivision (C), subpart (17).
Given that Congress explicitly defined “hemp” to include “hemp derivatives” and “hemp extracts,” as long as delta-8 tetrahydrocannabinol (delta- 8 THC) is extracted or derived from hemp or is extracted or derived from extract or derivative of “hemp,” it cannot be criminalized under the federal Controlled Substances Act, until Congress either further amends the AIA of 2018 or amends the existing CSA. There is case law precedent to support the proposition that a government agency, in this case the DEA, cannot make a rule that directly conflicts an existing federal statute. In determining whether to give deference to an agency rule with a federal statute, Courts apply the Chevron Doctrine set forth by the Supreme Court in Chevron U.S.A., Inc. v. Natural Res. Def. Council. See 467 U.S. 837, 842-4 (1984).
Courts must employ a two-step analysis under the Chevron Doctrine. First, if the statute speaks clearly “to the precise question at issue," the Court must give effect to the unambiguously expressed intent of Congress.” Chevron, 467 U.S. at 842-43. Second, where the statute is “silent or ambiguous with respect to the specific issue,” the Court must sustain the agency determination if it is based on a “permissible construction” of the statute. Id. at 843. A court does not need to reach this second step if, “employing traditional tools of statutory construction, [it] ascertains that Congress had an intention on the precise question at issue ” Id. at 843 n.9. Similarly, in Lamie v. United States Trustee, the Court noted that when a “statute’s language is plain, the sole function of the courts—at least where the disposition required by the text is not absurd—is to enforce it according to its terms.” 540 U.S. 526, 534 (2004). Furthermore, in America's Cmty. Bankers v. F.D.I.C., the Court explained that when a federal statute is clear and unambiguous then there is nothing for an agency to interpret and the court must give effect to that unambiguous expression of Congress. 200 F.3d 822, 833-34 (2000). This remains the case even when the executive agency at issue is the one tasked with enforcing that particular federal statute. Id.
As it pertains to the issue at hand, the DEA cannot promulgate a rule the directly conflicts the will of Congress as expressed by the AIA and the CSA. As previously noted, Congress expressly exempted hemp plants, including hemp derivatives and extracts, from the CSA. This exemption presumably encompasses all products that can be derived from hemp including THCs or salts (to the extent that both products are derived or extracted from hemp). There can be no assurance that the AIA will not be modified to conform to the DEA’s regulations regarding the regulatory controls over marihuana, tetrahydrocannabinols, and other marihuana-related constituents in the CSA.
Estimate Of The Amount Of Money Spent During Each Of The Last Two Fiscal Years On Research And Development
Other than time spent researching our business and proposed markets and segmentation, we have not spent any funds on research and development activities to date. In the event opportunities arise from our operations, we may elect to initiate research and development activities, but we have no plans for any activities to date.

Costs and Effects Of Compliance With Environmental Laws
Our operations are not subject to any environmental laws or regulations.
Number Of Total Employees And Number Of Full-Time Employees
At this time, the Company has 33 full time employees and no persons working part time in various functions.
We do not provide an employer contribution for healthcare, pension, annuity, insurance, profit sharing, or similar benefit plans; however, we may adopt plans in the future.
Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company
We qualify as an emerging growth company as that term is used in the JOBS Act. An emerging growth company may take advantage of specified reduced reporting and other burdens that are otherwise applicable generally to public companies. These provisions include:
· | A requirement to have only two years of audited financial statements and only two years of related MD&A; |
· | Exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of the emerging growth company’s internal control over financial reporting under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002; |
· | Reduced disclosure about the emerging growth company’s executive compensation arrangements; and |
· | No non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements. |
We have already taken advantage of these reduced reporting burdens in this Form 10-Q, which are also available to us as a smaller reporting company as defined under Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).
In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) for complying with new or revised accounting standards. We are choosing to utilize the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards under Section 102(b)(2) of the JOBS Act. This election allows our Company to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until those standards apply to private companies. As a result of this election, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.
We could remain an emerging growth company for up to five years, or until the earliest of (i) the last day of the first fiscal year in which our annual gross revenues exceed $1 billion, (ii) the date that we become a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, which would occur if the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter, or (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt during the preceding three year period.
We are a reporting company and file all reports required under sections 13 and 15d of the Exchange Act.

How We Generate Revenue
On January 19, 2019 (date of formation), the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification ASC 606 (“ASC 606”), Revenue from Contracts with Customers, using the modified retrospective approach for all contracts not completed as of the date of adoption. Results for the reporting periods beginning on January 19, 2019 (date of formation) are presented under ASC 606.
The Company generates all of its revenue from contracts with customers. The Company recognizes revenue when we satisfy a performance obligation by transferring control of the promised services to a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration that we expect to receive in exchange for those services. The Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps:
1. | Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer. | |
2. | Identification of the performance obligations in the contract. | |
3. | Determination of the transaction price. | |
4. | Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract | |
5. | Recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation. |
38 |
At contract inception, the Company assesses the services promised in our contracts with customers and identifies a performance obligation for each promise to transfer to the customer a service (or bundle of services) that is distinct. To identify the performance obligations, the Company considers all of the services promised in the contract regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or are implied by customary business practices. The Company allocates the entire transaction price to a single performance obligation.
A description of our principal revenue generating activities are as follows:
Other sales – The Company offers consumer CBD and hemp products through its online websites. During the nine months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded other sales of $3,522,961 and $1,747,931, respectively.
Mask sales – As a result of the COVID 19 pandemic, in 2020, the Company entered into the sale of KN95 masks but had to dispose of them at a loss. During the nine months ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company recorded mask sales of $3,054,201 and $0, respectively.
The Company evaluates whether it is appropriate to record the gross amount of product sales and related costs or the net amount earned as commissions. Generally, when the Company is primarily obligated in a transaction, are subject to inventory risk, have latitude in establishing prices and selecting suppliers, or have several but not all of these indicators, revenue is recorded at the gross sale price. The Company generally records the net amounts as commissions earned if we are not primarily obligated and do not have latitude in establishing prices.
Revenue is recognized when the product is shipped to the customer, provided that collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. The Company primarily provides for no credit terms as it collects a deposit of 50% upon order and requires the remaining 50% be paid before the order is shipped. When credit terms are granted, terms of up to 120 days are provided, based on credit evaluations. No allowance has been provided for uncollectible accounts. Management has evaluated the receivables and believes they are collectible based on the nature of the receivables, historical experience of credit losses, and all other currently available evidence. Discounts are recorded as a reduction of the transaction price. Revenue excludes any amounts collected on behalf of third parties, including sales taxes.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020 Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019
Cash Flows from Operating Activities – For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, net cash provided by operating activities was $520,327. Net cash used in operations was primarily due to a net income of $721,556, and the changes in operating assets and liabilities of $291,351, primarily due to the net changes in customer advance payments of $362,863, accrued interest of $147,371, inventories of $5,180, and other current liabilities of $113,956, offset primarily by the change in accounts receivable of $610,204, prepaid expenses of $94,103, accounts payable of $191,615, and other current assets of $24,799. In addition, net cash used in operating activities was offset primarily by adjustments to reconcile net profit from the accretion of the debt discount of $61,262, change in derivative liability of $21,480, depreciation expense of $6,411, and amortization expense of $1,817.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, net cash used in operating activities was $155,037. Net cash used in operations was primarily due to a net loss of $167,179, and the changes in operating assets and liabilities of $11,486, primarily due to a net increase in accounts payable of $233,038, and other current liabilities of $949, offset primarily by accounts receivable of $222,501. In addition, net cash used in operating activities was offset primarily by adjustments to reconcile net loss from depreciation expense of $656.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities – For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, net cash used in investing activities was $142,262 due to purchases of intangible assets and equipment. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, net cash used in investing activities was $13,676 due to purchases of equipment.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities – For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, net cash provided by financing activities was $358,284 due to advances from shareholders, net of $57,500, proceeds from short term notes payable of $221,065, repayments of short term notes payable of $20,000, proceeds from related party of $182,599, repayments of due to related party of $286,757, the proceeds from convertible notes payable of $220,000, and contributions to members, net of $732,691.

Financing – We anticipate that our future liquidity requirements will arise from the need to fund our growth from operations, pay current obligations and future capital expenditures. The primary sources of funding for such requirements are expected to be cash generated from operations and raising additional funds from the private sources and/or debt financing. However, we can provide no assurances that we will be able to generate sufficient cash flow from operations and/or obtain additional financing on terms satisfactory to us, if at all, to remain a going concern. Our continuation as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet our obligations on a timely basis and ultimately to attain profitability. Our Plan of Operation for the next twelve months is to raise capital to implement our strategy. We do not have the necessary cash and revenue to satisfy our cash requirements for the next twelve months. We cannot guarantee that additional funding will be available on favorable terms, if at all. If adequate funds are not available, then we may not be able to expand our operations. We do not know whether we will issue stock for the loans or whether we will merely prepare and sign promissory notes. Although we are not presently engaged in any capital raising activities, we anticipate that we may engage in one or more private offering of our company’s securities after the completion of this offering. We would most likely rely upon the transaction exemptions from registration provided by Regulation D, Rule 506 or conduct another private offering under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. See “Note 2 – Going Concern” in our financial statements for additional information as to the possibility that we may not be able to continue as a “going concern.”

Paycheck Protection Program Loan
On May 6, 2020, the Company executed a note (the “PPP Note”) for the benefit of TD Bank, N.A. (the “Lender”) in the aggregate amount of $51,065 under the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”). The PPP is administered by the U.S. Small Business Administration (the “SBA”). The interest rate of the loan is 1.00% per annum and accrues on the unpaid principal balance computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days. Commencing seven months after the effective date of the PPP Note, the Company is required to pay the Lender equal monthly payments of principal and interest as required to fully amortize any unforgiven principal balance of the loan by the two-year anniversary of the effective date of the PPP Note (the “Maturity Date”). The PPP Note contains customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults, making materially false or misleading representations to the SBA or the Lender, or breaching the terms of the PPP Note. The occurrence of an event of default may result in the repayment of all amounts outstanding under the PPP Note, collection of all amounts owing from the Company, or filing suit and obtaining judgment against the Company. Under the terms of the CARES Act, PPP loan recipients can apply for and be granted forgiveness for all or a portion of the loan granted under the PPP. Such forgiveness will be determined, subject to limitations, based on the use of loan proceeds for payment of payroll costs and any payments of mortgage interest, rent, and utilities. Recent modifications to the PPP by the U.S. Treasury and Congress have extended the time period for loan forgiveness beyond the original eight-week period, making it possible for the Company to apply for forgiveness of its PPP loan. No assurance can be given that the Company will be successful in obtaining forgiveness of the loan in whole or in part. The PPP Note of $51,065 was repaid in February 2021.

We had no material commitments for capital expenditures as of September 30, 2020.
Fiscal year end
Our fiscal year end is December 31.
Going Concern
Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. We had accumulated earnings of approximately $624,000 at September 30, 2020 and an accumulated deficit of $97,000 at December 31, 2019, had a working capital deficit of $963,000 and $216,000 at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, had net income of approximately $722,000 and a net loss of $167,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and net cash provided by operating activities of approximately $520,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and net cash used in operating activities of approximately $155,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.
While we are attempting to expand operations and increase revenues, our cash position may not be significant enough to support our daily operations. We intend to raise additional funds by way of a public or private offering. We believe that the actions presently being taken to further implement its business plan and generate revenues provide the opportunity for us to continue as a going concern. While we believe in the viability of our strategy to generate revenues and in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that effect. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to further implement our business plan and generate revenues.
The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk.
The registrant qualifies as a smaller reporting company, as defined by SEC Rule 229.10(f)(1) and is not required to provide the information required by this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-l5(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information that would be required to be disclosed in Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chairman, CEO and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in SEC Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, management identified deficiencies that were determined to be a material weakness.
Management’s Report on Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-l5(f) of the Securities Exchange Act). Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2020. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) (2013). Based on that assessment, management believes that, as of September 30, 2020, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was ineffective based on the COSO criteria, due to the following material weaknesses listed below.
The specific material weaknesses identified by the company’s management as of end of the period covered by this report include the following:
· | we have not performed a risk assessment and mapped our processes to control objectives; |
· | we have not implemented comprehensive entity-level internal controls; |
· | we have not implemented adequate system and manual controls. As such, there was inadequate cross functional review of the debt agreements; and |
· | we do not have sufficient segregation of duties. As such, the officers approve their own related business expense reimbursements |
Despite the material weaknesses reported above, our management believes that our consolidated financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented and that this report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this report.
This report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this report.
48 |
Management's Remediation Plan
The weaknesses and their related risks are not uncommon in a company of our size because of the limitations in the size and number of staff. Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties has not always been possible and may not be economically feasible.
However, we plan to take steps to enhance and improve the design of our internal control over financial reporting. During the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, we have not been able to remediate the material weaknesses identified above. To remediate such weaknesses, we plan to implement the following changes in the current fiscal year as resources allow:
(i) | appoint additional qualified personnel to address inadequate segregation of duties and implement modifications to our financial controls to address such inadequacies; |
The remediation efforts set out herein will be implemented in the current 2021 fiscal year. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within our company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.
Management believes that despite our material weaknesses set forth above, our consolidated financial statements for the three months ended September 30, 2020 are fairly stated, in all material respects, in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
