Significant Accounting Policies
Please refer to Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company's most recent Form 10-K for all significant accounting policies of the Company, with the exception of those discussed below.

Table of Contents |
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared according to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Section 210.8-03(b) of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and, therefore, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been omitted.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022.
These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2022, has been derived from the consolidated financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP.
Our condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of those entities outlined in Nature of Operations giving consideration to the non-controlling interests where appropriate. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts presented in previously issued financial statements have been reclassified in these financial statements. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, $176,230 and $579,989, respectively, was recorded as revenue from services in the statement of operations and has been reclassified to revenue from products to be consistent with the current period presentation.
Revenue Recognition
On January 1, 2018, we adopted the new accounting standard ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and all of the related amendments (“new revenue standard”). We recorded the change, which was immaterial, related to adopting the new revenue standard using the modified retrospective method. Under this method, we recognized the cumulative effect of initially applying the new revenue standard as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. This results in no restatement of prior periods, which continue to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. We expect the impact of the adoption of the new revenue standard to continue to be immaterial on an ongoing basis. We have applied the new revenue standard to all contracts as of the date of initial application and as such, have used the following criteria described below in more detail for each business unit:
Identify the contract with the customer.
Identify the performance obligations in the contract.
Determine the transaction price.
Allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract.
Recognize revenue when or as we satisfy a performance obligation.
Reserves are recorded as a reduction in net sales and are not considered material to our consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. In addition, we invoice our customers for taxes assessed by governmental authorities such as sales tax and value added taxes, where applicable. We present these taxes on a net basis.

TPT SpeedConnect: ISP and Telecom Revenue
TPT SpeedConnect is a rural Internet provider operating in 10 Midwestern States under the trade name SpeedConnect. TPT SC’s primary business model is subscription based, pre-paid monthly reoccurring revenues, from wireless delivered, high-speed internet connections. In addition, the company resells third-party satellite and DSL internet and IP telephony services. Revenue generated from sales of telecommunications services is recognized as the transaction with the customer is considered closed and the customer receives and accepts the services that were the result of the transaction. There are no financing terms or variable transaction prices. Due date is detailed on monthly invoices distributed to customer. Services billed monthly in advance are deferred to the proper period as needed. Deferred revenue are contract liabilities for cash received before performance obligations for monthly services are satisfied. Deferred revenue for TPT SpeedConnect as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 are $85,070 and $421,643, respectively. Certain of our products require specialized installation and equipment. For telecom products that include installation, if the installation meets the criteria to be considered a separate element, product revenue is recognized upon delivery, and installation revenue is recognized when the installation is complete. The Installation Technician collects the signed quote containing terms and conditions when installing the site equipment at customer premises.
Revenue for installation services and equipment is billed separately from recurring ISP and telecom services and is recognized when equipment is delivered and installation is completed. Revenue from ISP and telecom services is recognized monthly over the contractual period, or as services are rendered and accepted by the customer.
The overwhelming majority of our revenue continues to be recognized when transactions occur. Since installation fees are generally small relative to the size of the overall contract and because most contracts are for two years or less, the impact of not recognizing installation fees over the contract is immaterial.
Blue Collar: Media Production Services
Blue Collar creates original live action and animated content productions and has produced hundreds of hours of material for the television, theatrical, home entertainment and new media markets. Blue Collar designs branding and marketing campaigns and has had agreements with some of the world’s largest companies including PepsiCo, Intel, HP, WalMart and many other Fortune 500 companies. Additionally, they create motion picture, television and home entertainment marketing campaigns for studios including Sony, DreamWorks, Twentieth Century Fox, Universal Studios, Paramount Studios, and Warner Brothers. With regard to revenue recognition, Blue Collar receives an agreement from each client to perform defined work. Some agreements are written, some are verbal. Work may include creation of marketing materials and/or content creation. Some work may be short term and take weeks to create and some work may be longer and take months to create. There are instances where customer agreements segregate identifiable obligations (like filming on site vs. film editing and final production) with separate transaction pricing. The performance obligation is generally satisfied upon delivery of such film or production products, at which time revenue is recognized. There are no financing terms or variable transaction prices.
TPT MedTech: Medical Testing Revenue
TPT MedTech operates in the Point of Care Testing (“POCT”) market by primarily offering mobile medical testing facilities and software equipped for mobile devices to monitor and manage personalized healthcare. Services used from our mobile medical testing facilities are billing through credit cards at the time of service. Revenue is generated from our software platform as users sign up for our mobile healthcare monitor and management application and tests are performed. If medical testing is in one our own owned facility, the usage of the software application is included in the testing fees. If the testing is in a non-owned outside contracted facility, fees are generated from the usage of the software application on a per test basis and billed monthly.

TPT MedTech also offers various products. One is to build and sell its mobile testing facilities called QuikLABs designed for mobile testing. This is used by TPT MedTech for its own testing services. Another is to build customized mobile gyms for exercising. This is sold to third parties. Another is medical equipment, one of which is a sanitizing unit called SANIQuik which is used as a safe and flexible way to sanitize providing an additional routine to hand washing and facial coverings. The SANIQuik has not yet been approved for sale in the United States but has in some parts of the European community. Revenues from these products are recognized when a product is delivered, the sales transaction considered closed and accepted by a customer. When deposits are received for which a product has not been delivered, it is recognized as deferred revenue. Deferred revenue as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was $0 and $41,000, respectively. There are no financing terms or variable transaction prices for either of these products.
SDM: Ecommerce, Email Marketing and Web Design Services
SDM generates revenue by providing ecommerce, email marketing and web design solutions to small and large commercial businesses, complete with monthly software support, updates and maintenance. Services are billed monthly. There are no financing terms or variable transaction prices. Platform infrastructure support is a prepaid service billed in monthly recurring increments. The services are billed a month in advance and due prior to services being rendered. The revenue is deferred when invoiced and booked in the month the service is provided. There is no deferred revenue as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Software support services (including software upgrades) are billed in real time, on the first of the month. Web design service revenues are recognized upon completion of specific projects. Revenue is booked in the month the services are rendered and payments are due on the final day of the month. There are usually no contract revenues that are deferred until services are performed.
K Telecom: Prepaid Phones and SIM Cards Revenue
K Telecom generates revenue from reselling prepaid phones, SIM cards, and rechargeable minute traffic for prepaid phones to its customers (primarily retail outlets). Product sales occur at the customer’s locations, at which time delivery occurs and cash or check payment is received. The Company recognizes the revenue when they receive payment at the time of delivery. There are no financing terms or variable transaction prices.
Copperhead Digital: ISP and Telecom Revenue
Copperhead Digital operated as a regional internet and telecom services provider operating in Arizona under the trade name Trucom. Although there are currently no customers and it will take capital to reopen this revenue stream, Copperhead Digital operated as a wireless telecommunications Internet Service Provider (“ISP”) facilitating both residential and commercial accounts. Copperhead Digital’s primary business model was subscription based, pre-paid monthly reoccurring revenues, from wireless delivered, high-speed internet connections. In addition, the company resold third-party satellite and DSL internet and IP telephony services. Revenue generated from sales of telecommunications services was recognized as the transaction with the customer is considered closed and the customer received and accepted the services that were the result of the transaction. There are no financing terms or variable transaction prices. Due date was detailed on monthly invoices distributed to customer. Services billed monthly in advance were deferred to the proper period as needed. Deferred revenue was contract liabilities for cash received before performance obligations for monthly services are satisfied. Certain of its products required specialized installation and equipment. For telecom products that included installation, if the installation met the criteria to be considered a separate element, product revenue was recognized upon delivery, and installation revenue was recognized when the installation was complete. The Installation Technician collected the signed quote containing terms and conditions when installing the site equipment at customer premises.
Revenue for installation services and equipment was billed separately from recurring ISP and telecom services and was recognized when equipment was delivered, and installation was completed. Revenue from ISP and telecom services was recognized monthly over the contractual period, or as services were rendered and accepted by the customer.
The overwhelming majority of revenue was recognized when transactions occurred. Since installation fees were generally small relative to the size of the overall contract and because most contracts were for a year or less, the impact of not recognizing installation fees over the contract was immaterial.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share
The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, “Earning per Share”. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholder (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method for options and warrants and using the if-converted method for preferred stock and convertible notes. It also gives effect to any deemed dividends such as during the period for Series A Preferred Stock. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had shares that were potentially common stock equivalents as follows:

(1) As of September 30, 2022, by amendment, holder of the Series A Preferred Stock which is Stephen J. Thomas, is guaranteed upon date of conversion to 60% of the common shares computed to include all projected conversions of all convertible debt and any other classes of Preferred Stock as if the conversions had taken place at the stated conversion price per share (i.e. for the avoidance of doubt – “fully diluted” as if such conversion had occurred prior to the Series A conversion.) The Company would have to authorize additional shares for this to occur as only 2,500,000,000 shares are currently authorized.
(2) Holders of the Series D Preferred Stock may decide after 12 months to convert to common stock @ 75% of the 30 day average market closing price (for previous 30 business days) divided into $5.00. There is also an automatic conversion of the Series D Preferred Stock without consent of holders upon any national exchange listing approval and the registration effectiveness of common stock underlying the conversion rights. The automatic conversion to common from Series D Preferred shall be @ 75% of the 30 day average market closing price (for previous 30 business days) divided into $5.00.
(3) Holders of the Series E Preferred Stock may decide after 12 months to convert to common stock @ 75% of the 30 day average market closing price (for previous 30 business days) divided into $5.00. There is also an automatic conversion of the Series E Preferred Stock without consent of holders upon any national exchange listing approval and the registration effectiveness of common stock underlying the conversion rights. The automatic conversion to common from Series E Preferred shall be @ 75% of the 30 day average market closing price (for previous 30 business days) divided into $5.00.
Financial Instruments and Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Our primary financial instruments at September 30, 2022 consisted of cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and debt. We apply fair value measurement accounting to either record or disclose the value of our financial assets and liabilities in our financial statements. 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. A fair value hierarchy requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs, where available, and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
Described below are the three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, 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 fair value of the assets or liabilities.
We consider our derivative financial instruments as Level 3. The balances for our derivative financial instruments as of September 30, 2022 are the following:
Derivative Instrument |
| Fair Value |
| |
Convertible Promissory Notes |
| $ | 3,868,395 |

Recently Issued Financial Accounting Standards
Management has reviewed recently issued accounting pronouncements and have determined there are not any that would have a material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 2 – ACQUISITIONS
TPT Strategic Merger with Information Security and Training LLC
Dated as of June 29, 2022, TPT Strategic entered into a definitive agreement for the acquisition of the assets and Information Security and Training LLC (“IST LLC” or “IST”) (www.istincs.com) a General Construction and Information Technology Services company based in Huntsville Alabama with branch offices in Nashville TN, Birmingham Al, Jackson MS, Fort Campbell KY, New Orleans LA, and Joint Base Lewis-McChord.

The acquisition includes the assumption of all assets and certain liabilities which approximate $1.2M and $1.3M, respectively, as of December 31, 2021. Audited revenues and net loss for IST the year ended December 31, 2021 were approximately $2.6M and $63,000 respectively. Everett Lanier will remain as the President and will become a Board Member of TPT Strategic.
TPT Strategic previously entered into a merger agreement with Education System Management, Inc. (“EDSM”) which was contingent on EDSM completing an audit in six months, which EDSM did not complete.
On May 10, 2022, as part of a “Smart City” concept and to utilize its telecommunications expertise, the Company entered into Real Estate Sales Agreements to acquire approximately 135 acres of land in Tuskegee, with the Gray Family Limited Partnership and Lakeside Ranch, Inc. comprised of one approximate 45 acre parcel along Tuskegee Lake and the second an approximate 85 acre parcel along route 80 heading to Auburn, Alabama.

The Company had until November 11, 2022 to close the transactions including paying the remainder of the purchase price. This did not happen, and the Company is in negotiations to finance this with a bank of which the Gray Family has verbally said they would honor. Closing of the transactions are subject to the validity of the verbal commitment and obtaining financing, all surveys and finalizing master plans for the kick-off the Company’s “Smart City” project.
NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.
We incurred $11,352,944 and $8,671,818, respectively, in losses, and we used $263,313 and $320,999, respectively, in cash for operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. We calculate the net cash used by operating activities by decreasing, or increasing in case of gain, our let loss by those items that do not require the use of cash such as depreciation, amortization, research and development, derivative expense or gain, gain or loss on extinguishment of debt and share-based compensation which totaled to a net $7,704,624 for 2022 and $4,456,370 for 2021.
In addition, we report increases and reductions in liabilities as uses of cash and deceases assets and increases in liabilities as sources of cash, together referred to as changes in operating assets and liabilities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we had a net increase in our operating assets and liabilities of $3,385,007 primarily from an increase in accounts payable from lag of payments for accounts payable for cash flow considerations. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021 we had a net increase to our operating assets and liabilities of $3,894,450 for similar reasons.
Cash flows provided by and used in financing activities were $175,057 and $773,387, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, these cash flows were generated from proceeds from convertible notes, loans and advances of $1,256,187 offset by payment on convertible loans, advances and factoring agreements of $1,391,580 and payments on amounts payable – related parties of $39,664. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, cash flows from financing activities primarily came from proceeds from the sale of Common Stock and Series D Preferred Stock of 233,244 and $610,502, respectively, convertible notes, loans and advances of $1,961,685 offset by payments on convertible loans, advances and factoring agreements of $2,024,497.
Cash flows used in investing activities were $16,297 and $219,298, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 primarily related to the acquisition of property and equipment.

These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the issuance of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
In December 2019, COVID-19 emerged and has subsequently spread worldwide. The World Health Organization has declared COVID-19 a pandemic resulting in federal, state and local governments and private entities mandating various restrictions, including travel restrictions, restrictions on public gatherings, stay at home orders and advisories and quarantining of people who may have been exposed to the virus. After close monitoring and responses and guidance from federal, state and local governments, in an effort to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, around March 18, 2020 for a period of time, the Company closed its Blue Collar office in Los Angeles and its TPT SpeedConnect offices in Michigan, Idaho and Arizona. Most employees were working remotely, however this is not possible with certain employees and all subcontractors that work for Blue Collar. The Company continues to monitor developments, including government requirements and recommendations at the national, state, and local level to evaluate possible extensions to all or part of such closures.
The Company has taken advantage of the stimulus offerings and received $1,402,700 in PPP loans. All of these PPP loans were forgiven in the year ended December 31, 2021. The Company is also in the process of trying to raise debt and equity financing, some of which may have to be used for working capital shortfalls if revenues continue to decline.
In order for us to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the issuance of these financial statements, we will need to obtain additional debt or equity financing and look for companies with cash flow positive operations that we can acquire. There can be no assurance that we will be able to secure additional debt or equity financing, that we will be able to acquire cash flow positive operations, or that, if we are successful in any of those actions, those actions will produce adequate cash flow to enable us to meet all our future obligations. Most of our existing financing arrangements are short-term. If we are unable to obtain additional debt or equity financing, we may be required to significantly reduce or cease operations.

NOTE 6 -DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company previously adopted the provisions of ASC subtopic 825-10, Financial Instruments (“ASC 825-10”). ASC 825-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and risk of nonperformance. ASC 825-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
The derivative liability as of September 30, 2022, in the amount of $4,078,343 has a level 3 classification under ASC 825-10.
The following table provides a summary of changes in fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial liabilities as of September 30, 2022.

Operating lease obligations
The Company adopted Topic 842 on January 1, 2019. The Company elected to adopt this standard using the optional modified retrospective transition method and recognized a cumulative-effect adjustment to the consolidated balance sheet on the date of adoption. Comparative periods have not been restated. With the adoption of Topic 842, the Company’s consolidated balance sheet now contains the following line items: Operating lease right-of-use assets, Current portion of operating lease liabilities and Operating lease liabilities, net of current portion.
As all the existing leases subject to the new lease standard were previously classified as operating leases by the Company, they were similarly classified as operating leases under the new standard. The Company has determined that the identified operating leases did not contain non-lease components and require no further allocation of the total lease cost. Additionally, the agreements in place did not contain information to determine the rate implicit in the leases, so we used our estimated incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate. Our weighted average discount rate is 10.0% and the weighted average lease term of 5.4 years.
We have various non-cancelable lease agreements for certain of our tower locations with original lease periods expiring between 2022 and 2044. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain we will exercise that option. Certain of the arrangements contain escalating rent payment provisions. An equipment lease described below and leases with an initial term of twelve months have not been recorded on the consolidated balance sheets. We recognize rent expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
As of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, operating lease right-of-use assets arising from operating leases were $3,544,160 and $4,259,758, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, cash paid for amounts included for the measurement of lease liabilities was $800,537 and the Company recorded lease expense in the amount of $1,683,392 in cost of sales.
The Company entered an operating agreement to lease colocation space for 5 years. This operating agreement starts October 1, 2020 for $7,140 per month. In addition, the Company entered into office space for Blue Collar which started April 2021 and runs for 3 years beginning at an average of $4,150 for the first six months, $8,300 for twelve months, $8,549 for the next twelve months and $8,805 for the following twelve months.

Other Commitments and Contingencies
Employment Agreements
The Company had employment agreements with certain employees of SDM, K Telecom and Air Fitness. The agreements are such that SDM, K Telecom and Air Fitness, on a standalone basis in each case, must provide sufficient cash flow to financially support the financial obligations within the employment agreements. The employment agreements for SDM and Aire Fitness were terminated with the exchange of debt for Series E Preferred Stock. See Note 7.
On May 6, 2020, the Company entered into an agreement to employ Ms. Bing Caudle as Vice President of Product Development of the Media One Live platform for an annual salary of $250,000 for five years, including customary employee benefits. The payment was guaranteed for five years whether or not Ms. Caudle is dismissed with cause. This employment agreement was effectively modified with the Software Acquisition Agreement described in Note 5 such that the Company is required to make payroll payments of $250,000 per year for five years to Ms. Caudle and payroll payments totaling $150,000 over three years to her daughter.
Litigation
On March 18, 2019, the Company issued to an Investor a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $600,000.00 (the “Auctus Promissory Note”) and Warrant Agreement (the “Auctus Warrant Agreement”) pursuant to that certain securities purchase agreement dated March 18, 2019 (the “Auctus SPA”) with Auctus Fund, LLC (“Auctus”). Pursuant to claims by Auctus that the Company had not complied with terms of the Auctus SPA, the Company and Auctus entered into a settlement agreement dated October 13, 2021 where by the Company would pay $763,231.97 and allow Auctus to exercise its right to exercise 15,000,000 warrants to purchase 15,000,000 shares of common stock. Auctus agreed to limit the sale of common shares of the Company to 2,000,000 during each respective calendar week. The Company recognized a gain on debt extinguishment of $7,068,339 when this Auctus Promissory Note was paid off in large part because of the related derivative liability on the books at the time of the settlement.
We have been named in a lawsuit by EMA Financial, LLC (“EMA”) for failing to comply with a Securities Purchase Agreement entered into in June 2019. More specifically, EMA claims the Company failed to honor notices of conversion, failed to establish and maintain share reserves, failed to register EMA shares and by failed to assure that EMA shares were Rule 144 eligible within 6 months. EMA has claimed in excess of $7,614,967 in relief. The Company has filed a motion in response for which EMA has filed a motion to dismiss. The Company does not believe at this time that any negative outcome would result in more than the $876,999 it has recorded on its balance sheet as of September 30, 2022.

A lawsuit was filed in Michigan by the one of the former owners of SpeedConnect, LLC, John Ogren. Mr. Ogren claimed he was owed back wages related to the acquisition agreement wherein the Company acquired the assets of SpeedConnect, LLC and kept him on through a consulting agreement. The Company’s position was that he ultimately resigned in writing and was not due any back wages. In August 2021, Mr. Ogren was awarded $334,908 in back wages by an Arbitrator. This amount has been included in accounts payable as of September 30, 2021 and expensed in the statement of operations as other expenses for the year ended December 31, 2021. Mr. Ogren and the Company agreed to a settlement whereby the Company would pay $120,000 within 14 days of a written agreement with four monthly payments of $20,000 starting on December 5, 2021 through March 2, 2022. This debt was completely paid off as of September 30, 2022.
We have been named in a lawsuit by a collection law firm on behalf of Pinnacle Towers LLC and Crown Atlantic Company Inc., against TPT Global Tech, Inc. The claim derives from an outstanding debt by incurred by Copperhead Digital. The lawsuit is over unpaid rent that should have been paid by Copperhead Digital but was not paid. The Company believes it has several defenses to this claim and is in the process of communicating with opposing counsel for dismissal of the claims which amount to $386,030.62 plus interest, costs and attorney fees. The Company has accounted for approximately $600,000 in payables on its consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2022 for this subsidiary payable.
Lawsuits are being threatened by vendors in relation to tower lease payments in accordance with tower lease agreements that were entered into by SpeedConnect. The claims are currently being investigated and the amount in controversy being claimed is approximately $3,500,000. The Company has approximately $4,000,000 in accounts payable for these threatened claims as of September 30, 2022, 2022. The claims appear to include lease agreements that have been terminated and future payments not yet due, among other issues. As such, the parties are trying to come up with resolutions for these claims.
The Company has been named in a lawsuit, Robert Serrett vs. TruCom, Inc., by a former employee who was terminated by management in 2016. The employee was working under an employment agreement but was terminated for breach of the agreement. The former employee is suing for breach of contract and is seeking around $75,000 in back pay and benefits. We learned that Mr. Serrett received a default judgement in Texas on May 15, 2018 for $70,650 plus $3,500 in attorney fees and 5% interest and court costs. However, he has made no attempt that we are aware of to obtain a sister state judgment in Arizona, where Trucom resides, or to try and enforce the judgement and collect. Management believes it has good and meritorious defenses and does not belief the outcome of the lawsuit will have any material effect on the financial position of the Company.
We are not currently involved in any litigation that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of our company or any of our subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting our company, our common stock, any of our subsidiaries or of our companies or our subsidiaries’ officers or directors in their capacities as such, in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect. We anticipate that we (including current and any future subsidiaries) will from time to time become subject to claims and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. It is not feasible to predict the outcome of any such proceedings and we cannot assure that their ultimate disposition will not have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows or results of operations.
Customer Contingencies
The Company has collected $338,725 from one customer in excess of amounts due from that customer in accordance with the customer’s understanding of the appropriate billings activity. The customer has filed a written demand for repayment by the Company of these amounts. Management believes that the customer agreement allows them to keep the amounts under dispute. Given the dispute, the Company has reflected the amounts in dispute as a customer liability on the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Forward-Looking Statements and Associated Risks.
This Form 10-Q contains certain statements that are forward-looking within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. For this purpose, any statements contained in this Form 10-Q that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Without limiting the foregoing, words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” or “continue” or comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ materially depending on a variety of factors, many of which are not within our control. These factors include but are not limited to economic conditions generally and in the industries in which we may participate; competition within our chosen industry, including competition from much larger competitors; technological advances and failure to successfully develop business relationships.
Based on our financial history since inception, our auditor has expressed substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, as of September 30, 2022, we had an accumulated deficit totaling $56,268,148. This raises substantial doubts about our ability to continue as a going concern.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
For the Three Months Ended September 30, 2022 Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2021
During the three months ended September 30, 2022, we recognized total revenues of $2,052,817 compared to the prior period of $2,519,426. The decrease is largely attributable to the decrease in internet customers from attrition and the discontinuance of unprofitable operating locations.
Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was $361,278 compared to $583,636 for the prior period. The increase is largely results of unprofitable towers being shut down which during the period has more than offset the decrease in customers. Gross profit percentage decreased to 8% from 23%.
During the three months ended September 30, 2022, we recognized $1,626,737 in operating expenses compared to $1,874,219 for the prior period. The decrease in large part is from the decrease in payroll and general and administrative expenses from the decrease in internet customers.
Derivative gains of $102,903 and expense of $3,472,930 results from the accounting for derivative financial instruments during the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
The gain on debt extinguishment of $397,008 for the current period ended September 30, 2022 results from conversion of notes payable for common shares.
Interest expense decreased for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the prior period by $250,718. The decrease comes largely from the amortization of debt discounts and default provisions on the Company’s derivative securities in prior periods.
During the three months ended September 30, 2022, we recognized a net loss of $1,245,019 compared to $4,718,296 for the prior period. The difference was the derivative loss in the prior period of $3,472,930 versus the derivative gain in the current period of $102,903.
During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company amended its series A Preferred Stock which resulted in a deemed dividend of $39,866,742 from the difference between the fair value of the amended Series A Preferred Stock compared to what had been recorded on the books.
For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022 Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021
During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we recognized total revenues of $6,145,465 compared to the prior period of $7,810,956. The decrease is largely attributable to the decrease in internet customers from attrition and the discontinuance of unprofitable operating locations. Decreases in MedTech revenue also occurred compared to the prior year from a decrease in operations.
Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $1,651,536 compared to $1,523,871 for the prior period. The increase is largely a result of unprofitable towers being shut down which during the period more than offset the decrease in customers in addition to gross margin contributions from Air Fitness and TPT MedTech. Gross profit percentage increased to 27% from 20%.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we recognized $6,767,816 in operating expenses compared to $6,007,496 for the prior period. The increase was in large part attributable to the research and development expense of $1,750,000 in the current period from the acquisition of a software developed by a third party.

Derivative gain of $491,301 and expense of $3,098,381 results from the accounting for derivative financial instruments during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.
The loss on debt extinguishment of $1,970,030 for the current period ended September 30, 2022 results from the exchange of accounts payable, financing arrangements and lease agreement balances as of September 30, 2022 for Series E Preferred Stock and shares of common stock .
Interest expense increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the prior period by $3,228,443. The increase comes largely from the amortization of debt discounts and default provisions on the Company’s derivative securities.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we recognized a net loss of $11,352,944 compared to $8,671,819 for the prior period. The difference was loss on debt conversions of $1,970,030 and increase on interest expense from debt discounts and default provisions as mentioned above slightly offset by the derivative expense of $3,098,381 in the prior year.
During the three months ended September 30, 2022, the Company amended its series A Preferred Stock which resulted in a deemed dividend of $39,866,742 from the difference between the fair value of the amended Series A Preferred Stock compared to what had been recorded on the books.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We incurred $11,352,944 and $8,671,818, respectively, in losses, and we used $263,313 and $320,999, respectively, in cash for operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. We calculate the net cash used by operating activities by decreasing, or increasing in case of gain, our let loss by those items that do not require the use of cash such as depreciation, amortization, research and development, derivative expense or gain, gain or loss on extinguishment of debt and share-based compensation which totaled to a net $7,704,624 for 2022 and $4,456,370 for 2021.
In addition, we report increases and reductions in liabilities as uses of cash and deceases assets and increases in liabilities as sources of cash, together referred to as changes in operating assets and liabilities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we had a net increase in our operating assets and liabilities of $3,385,007 primarily from an increase in accounts payable from lag of payments for accounts payable for cash flow considerations. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021 we had a net increase to our operating assets and liabilities of $3,894,450 for similar reasons.
Cash flows provided by and used in financing activities were $175,057 and $773,387, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, these cash flows were generated from proceeds from convertible notes, loans and advances of $1,256,187 offset by payment on convertible loans, advances and factoring agreements of $1,391,580 and payments on amounts payable – related parties of $39,664. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, cash flows from financing activities primarily came from proceeds from the sale of Common Stock and Series D Preferred Stock of $233,244 and $610,502, respectively, convertible notes, loans and advances of $1,961,685 offset by payments on convertible loans, advances and factoring agreements of $2,024,497.
Cash flows used in investing activities were $16,297 and $219,298, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 primarily related to the acquisition of property and equipment.
These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the issuance of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
In December 2019, COVID-19 emerged and has subsequently spread worldwide. The World Health Organization has declared COVID-19 a pandemic resulting in federal, state and local governments and private entities mandating various restrictions, including travel restrictions, restrictions on public gatherings, stay at home orders and advisories and quarantining of people who may have been exposed to the virus. After close monitoring and responses and guidance from federal, state and local governments, in an effort to mitigate the spread of COVID-19, around March 18, 2020 for a period of time, the Company closed its Blue Collar office in Los Angeles and its TPT SpeedConnect offices in Michigan, Idaho and Arizona. Most employees were working remotely, however this is not possible with certain employees and all subcontractors that work for Blue Collar. The Company continues to monitor developments, including government requirements and recommendations at the national, state, and local level to evaluate possible extensions to all or part of such closures.
The Company has taken advantage of the stimulus offerings and received $1,402,700 in PPP loans. All of these PPP loans were forgiven in the year ended December 31, 2021. The Company is also in the process of trying to raise debt and equity financing, some of which may have to be used for working capital shortfalls if revenues continue to decline.
In order for us to continue as a going concern for a period of one year from the issuance of these financial statements, we will need to obtain additional debt or equity financing and look for companies with cash flow positive operations that we can acquire. There can be no assurance that we will be able to secure additional debt or equity financing, that we will be able to acquire cash flow positive operations, or that, if we are successful in any of those actions, those actions will produce adequate cash flow to enable us to meet all our future obligations. Most of our existing financing arrangements are short-term. If we are unable to obtain additional debt or equity financing, we may be required to significantly reduce or cease operations.

Ongoing Assessment of the Impact of COVID-19
Companies have undertaken and are generally in the process of making a diverse range of operational adjustments in response to the effects of COVID-19. These adjustments are numerous and include a transition to telework; supply chain and distribution adjustments; and suspending or modifying certain operations to comply with health and safety guidelines to protect employees, contractors, and customers, including in connection with a transition back to the workplace. These types of adjustments may have an effect on a company that would be material to an investment or voting decision, and affected companies should carefully consider their obligations to disclose this information to investors. Companies also are undertaking a diverse and sometimes complex range of financing activities in response to the effects of COVID-19 on their businesses and markets. These activities may involve obtaining and utilizing credit facilities, accessing public and private markets, implementing supplier finance programs, and negotiating new or modified customer payment terms. The SEC has required a discussion of COVID-19 related considerations, specific facts and circumstances and make disclosures to address the following questions;
· | What are the material operational challenges that management and the Board of Directors are monitoring and evaluating? | |
|
|
|
| · | We have been challenged by the gathering restrictions under state and local rules and lack of events due to cancellation specifically related to our Blue Collar operations. |
|
|
|
· | How and to what extent have you altered your operations, such as implementing health and safety policies for employees, contractors, and customers, to deal with these challenges, including challenges related to employees returning to the workplace? | |
|
|
|
| · | We have allowed our employees to work from home and are using contract service providers where appropriate. Blue Collar was completely shut down for a period of time but has implemented health and safety policies for employees, contractors and customers to be able to resume some of their operations. |
|
|
|
· | How are the changes impacting or reasonably likely to impact your financial condition and short- and long-term liquidity? | |
|
|
|
| · | The changes had impaired our Blue Collar operations significantly in the prior years but which operations seem to be rebounding. |
|
|
|
· | How is your overall liquidity position and outlook evolving? | |
|
|
|
| · | We have raised limited funds to help our liquidity position but hope our outlook is bright primarily through financing opportunities. |
|
|
|
· | To the extent COVID-19 is adversely impacting your revenues, consider whether such impacts are material to your sources and uses of funds, as well as the materiality of any assumptions you make about the magnitude and duration of COVID-19’s impact on your revenues. Are any decreases in cash flow from operations having a material impact on your liquidity position and outlook? | |
|
| |
| · | COVID-19 reduced our historical revenues in the past. The bans on events and gatherings were very material to our Blue Collar operations. |
|
|
|
· | Have you accessed revolving lines of credit or raised capital in the public or private markets to address your liquidity needs? | |
|
| |
| · | We have raised some funds through financing opportunities described herein. |
|
|
|
· | Have COVID-19 related impacts affected your ability to access your traditional funding sources on the same or reasonably similar terms as were available to you in recent periods? | |
|
|
|
| · | No. |
|
|
|
· | Have you provided additional collateral, guarantees, or equity to obtain funding? | |
|
|
|
| · | No. |
|
|
|
· | Have there been material changes in your cost of capital? | |
|
|
|
| · | No. |
35 |
Table of Contents |
· | How has a change, or a potential change, to your credit rating impacted your ability to access funding? | |
|
|
|
| · | No. |
|
|
|
· | Do your financing arrangements contain terms that limit your ability to obtain additional funding? If so, is the uncertainty of additional funding reasonably likely to result in your liquidity decreasing in a way that would result in you being unable to maintain current operations? | |
|
|
|
| · | No. |
|
|
|
· | Are you at material risk of not meeting covenants in your credit and other agreements? | |
|
|
|
| · | No. |
|
|
|
· | If you include metrics, such as cash burn rate or daily cash use, in your disclosures, are you providing a clear definition of the metric and explaining how management uses the metric in managing or monitoring liquidity? | |
|
|
|
| · | Not Applicable. |
|
|
|
· | Are there estimates or assumptions underlying such metrics the disclosure of which is necessary for the metric not to be misleading? | |
|
|
|
| · | No. |
|
|
|
· | Have you reduced your capital expenditures and if so, how? | |
|
|
|
| · | No. |
|
|
|
· | Have you reduced or suspended share repurchase programs or dividend payments? | |
|
|
|
| · | No. |
|
|
|
· | Have you ceased any material business operations or disposed of a material asset or line of business? | |
|
|
|
| · | No. |
|
|
|
· | Have you materially reduced or increased your human capital resource expenditures? | |
|
|
|
| · | Yes, we previously reduced staff for Blue Collar and are using more contractors for current work. |
|
|
|
· | Are any of these measures temporary in nature, and if so, how long do you expect to maintain them? | |
|
|
|
| · | These measures were temporary and are starting to be changed. |
|
|
|
· | What factors will you consider in deciding to extend or curtail these measures? | |
|
|
|
| · | We are opening up and allow operations as much as possible. |
|
|
|
· | What is the short- and long-term impact of these reductions on your ability to generate revenues and meet existing and future financial obligations? | |
|
|
|
| · | There is no impact of these reductions upon our ability to generate revenues or meet financial obligations. |
|
|
|
· | Are you able to timely service your debt and other obligations? | |
|
|
|
| · | Yes, for most debt instruments. |
|
|
|
· | Have you taken advantage of available payment deferrals, forbearance periods, or other concessions? What are those concessions and how long will they last? | |
|
|
|
| · | Yes. |
|
|
|
· | Do you foresee any liquidity challenges once those accommodations end? | |
|
|
|
| · | Possibly, if creditors demand all deferrals at once rather than payment over time as indicated. |
36 |
Table of Contents |
· | Have you altered terms with your customers, such as extended payment terms or refund periods, and if so, how have those actions materially affected your financial condition or liquidity? | |
|
|
|
| · | We have not altered terms with customers. |
|
|
|
· | Did you provide concessions or modify terms of arrangements as a landlord or lender that will have a material impact? | |
|
|
|
| · | No. |
|
|
|
· | Have you modified other contractual arrangements in response to COVID-19 in such a way that the revised terms may materially impact your financial condition, liquidity, and capital resources? | |
|
|
|
| · | Possibly, if creditors demand all deferrals at once rather than payment over time as indicated. |
|
|
|
· | Are you relying on supplier finance programs, otherwise referred to as supply chain financing, structured trade payables, reverse factoring, or vendor financing, to manage your cash flow? | |
|
|
|
| · | Yes. |
|
|
|
· | Have these arrangements had a material impact on your balance sheet, statement of cash flows, or short- and long-term liquidity and if so, how? | |
|
|
|
| · | No. |
|
|
|
· | What are the material terms of the arrangements? | |
|
|
|
| · | Most vendors situations now provide up to 30 days terms; but a good portion has now returned to normal payment terms. |
|
|
|
· | Did you or any of your subsidiaries provide guarantees related to these programs? | |
|
|
|
| · | No. |
|
|
|
· | Do you face a material risk if a party to the arrangement terminates it? | |
|
|
|
| · | No. |
|
|
|
· | What amounts payable at the end of the period relate to these arrangements, and what portion of these amounts has an intermediary already settled for you? | |
|
|
|
| · | There have been no settlements. Most related to up to 30 days with telecommunications vendors and payments are being included in planned cash flows. |
|
|
|
· | Have you assessed the impact material events that occurred after the end of the reporting period, but before the financial statements were issued, have had or are reasonably likely to have on your liquidity and capital resources and considered whether disclosure of subsequent events in the financial statements and known trends or uncertainties in MD&A is required? | |
|
|
|
| · | There are no material events occurring after the end of the reporting period but before financial statements were issued which would have any affect on liquidity or capital resources and there are no new trends or uncertainties needed to be disclosed. |

Government Assistance – The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act)
The CARES Act includes financial assistance for companies in the form of loans and tax relief in the form of deferred or reduced payments and potential refunds. Companies receiving federal assistance must consider the short- and long-term impact of that assistance on their financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, and capital resources, as well as the related disclosures and critical accounting estimates and assumptions. We have not received any financial assistance from the banks or any government agency.
· | How does a loan impact your financial condition, liquidity and capital resources? | |
|
|
|
| · | We have no government loans, except PPP loans that have been forgiven. |
|
|
|
· | What are the material terms and conditions of any assistance you received, and do you anticipate being able to comply with them? | |
|
|
|
| · | PPP loans only and they have been forgiven. |
|
|
|
· | Do those terms and conditions limit your ability to seek other sources of financing or affect your cost of capital? | |
|
|
|
| · | No. |
|
|
|
· | Do you reasonably expect restrictions, such as maintaining certain employment levels, to have a material impact on your revenues or income from continuing operations or to cause a material change in the relationship between costs and revenues? | |
|
|
|
| · | No. |
|
|
|
· | Once any such restrictions lapse, do you expect to change your operations in a material way? | |
|
|
|
| · | No. |
|
|
|
· | Are you taking advantage of any recent tax relief, and if so, how does that relief impact your short- and long-term liquidity? | |
|
|
|
| · | We are using payroll tax deferrals allowed by the tax relief programs. |
|
|
|
· | Do you expect a material tax refund for prior periods? | |
|
|
|
| · | No. |
|
|
|
· | Does the assistance involve new material accounting estimates or judgments that should be disclosed or materially change a prior critical accounting estimate? | |
|
|
|
| · | No. |
|
|
|
· | What accounting estimates were made, such as the probability a loan will be forgiven, and what uncertainties are involved in applying the related accounting guidance? | |
|
|
|
| · | We have recognized forgiveness of all PPP loans. |
A Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
The SEC has advised that Management should consider whether conditions and events, taken as a whole, raise substantial doubt about the company’s ability to meet its obligations as they become due within one year after the issuance of the financial statements. There is substantial doubt about a company’s ability to continue as a going concern due to continuation of the COVID-19 pandemic and we make the following disclosure:
| · | Are there conditions and events that give rise to the substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern? |
|
|
|
· | Yes. There was concern about our ability to continue as a going concern prior to COVID 19, however the continuation of COVID-19 restrictions may hamper Blue Collar from operating and generating revenues at full capacity. | |
|
|
|
| · | For example, have you defaulted on outstanding obligations? |
|
|
|
· | Yes, but not because of COVID-19. |
38 |
Table of Contents |
| · | Have you faced labor challenges or a work stoppage? |
|
|
|
· | No. | |
|
|
|
| · | What are your plans to address these challenges? |
|
|
|
· | At the point of allowing full operations for Blue Collar and film production companies to fully operate. | |
|
|
|
| · | Have you implemented any portion of those plans? |
|
|
|
· | No, it’s a matter of allowing Blue Collar to fully operate and trying to raise money and fund operational plans. |
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information required under this item.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to management including our principal executive officer/principal financial officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management has carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Due to the lack of personnel and outside directors, management concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are not effective as of such date. The Company anticipates that with further resources, the Company will expand both management and the board of directors with additional officers and independent directors in order to provide sufficient disclosure controls and procedures.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f)) during the quarter ended September 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On March 18, 2019, the Company issued to an Investor a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $600,000.00 (the “Auctus Promissory Note”) and Warrant Agreement (the “Auctus Warrant Agreement”) pursuant to that certain securities purchase agreement dated March 18, 2019 (the “Auctus SPA”) with Auctus Fund, LLC (“Auctus”). Pursuant to claims by Auctus that the Company had not complied with terms of the Auctus SPA, the Company and Auctus entered into a settlement agreement dated October 13, 2021 where by the Company would pay $763,231.97 and allow Auctus to exercise its right to exercise 15,000,000 warrants to purchase 15,000,000 shares of common stock. Auctus agreed to limit the sale of common shares of the Company to 2,000,000 during each respective calendar week. The Company recognized a gain on debt extinguishment of $7,068,339 when this Auctus Promissory Note was paid off in large part because of the related derivative liability on the books at the time of the settlement.
We have been named in a lawsuit by EMA Financial, LLC (“EMA”) for failing to comply with a Securities Purchase Agreement entered into in June 2019. More specifically, EMA claims the Company failed to honor notices of conversion, failed to establish and maintain share reserves, failed to register EMA shares and by failed to assure that EMA shares were Rule 144 eligible within 6 months. EMA has claimed in excess of $7,614,967 in relief. The Company has filed a motion in response for which EMA has filed a motion to dismiss. The Company does not believe at this time that any negative outcome would result in more than the $876,999 it has recorded on its balance sheet as of September 30, 2022.
A lawsuit was filed in Michigan by the one of the former owners of SpeedConnect, LLC, John Ogren. Mr. Ogren claimed he was owed back wages related to the acquisition agreement wherein the Company acquired the assets of SpeedConnect, LLC and kept him on through a consulting agreement. The Company’s position was that he ultimately resigned in writing and was not due any back wages. In August 2021, Mr. Ogren was awarded $334,908 in back wages by an Arbitrator. This amount has been included in accounts payable as of September 30, 2021 and expensed in the statement of operations as other expenses for the year ended December 31, 2021. Mr. Ogren and the Company agreed to a settlement whereby the Company would pay $120,000 within 14 days of a written agreement with four monthly payments of $20,000 starting on December 5, 2021 through March 2, 2022. This debt was completely paid off as of September 30, 2022.
We have been named in a lawsuit by a collection law firm on behalf of Pinnacle Towers LLC and Crown Atlantic Company Inc., against TPT Global Tech, Inc. The claim derives from an outstanding debt by incurred by Copperhead Digital. The lawsuit is over unpaid rent that should have been paid by Copperhead Digital but was not paid. The Company believes it has several defenses to this claim and is in the process of communicating with opposing counsel for dismissal of the claims which amount to $386,030.62 plus interest, costs and attorney fees. The Company has accounted for approximately $600,000 in payables on its consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2022 for this subsidiary payable.
Lawsuits are being threatened by vendors in relation to tower lease payments in accordance with tower lease agreements that were entered into by SpeedConnect. The claims are currently being investigated and the amount in controversy being claimed is approximately $3,500,000. The Company has approximately $4,000,000 in accounts payable for these threatened claims as of September 30, 2022, 2022. The claims appear to include lease agreements that have been terminated and future payments not yet due, among other issues. As such, the parties are trying to come up with resolutions for these claims.
The Company has been named in a lawsuit, Robert Serrett vs. TruCom, Inc., by a former employee who was terminated by management in 2016. The employee was working under an employment agreement but was terminated for breach of the agreement. The former employee is suing for breach of contract and is seeking around $75,000 in back pay and benefits. We learned that Mr. Serrett received a default judgement in Texas on May 15, 2018 for $70,650 plus $3,500 in attorney fees and 5% interest and court costs. However, he has made no attempt that we are aware of to obtain a sister state judgment in Arizona, where Trucom resides, or to try and enforce the judgement and collect. Management believes it has good and meritorious defenses and does not belief the outcome of the lawsuit will have any material effect on the financial position of the Company.
We are not currently involved in any litigation that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of our company or any of our subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting our company, our common stock, any of our subsidiaries or of our companies or our subsidiaries’ officers or directors in their capacities as such, in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect. We anticipate that we (including current and any future subsidiaries) will from time to time become subject to claims and legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. It is not feasible to predict the outcome of any such proceedings and we cannot assure that their ultimate disposition will not have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition, cash flows or results of operations.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
On September 1, 2022, Talos exercised its right to convert $300,675 of principal and interest into 40,090,000 shares of common stock leaving a zero balance of principal and accrued interest.
On September 8, 2022, Blue Lake exercised its right to convert $360,447 of principal and interest into 48,059,600 of common shares leaving a balance of $8,165 in principal and $48,936 of accrued interest.
On September 15, 2022, FirstFire exercised its right to convert $59,160 of principal into 17,000,000 shares of common stock.
ITEM 3. DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES
The Company is in default under approximately $7,300,000 of its financing arrangements, including all of its derivative financial instruments, and has received notice of such default from EMA for not reserving enough shares for conversion and for not having filed a Form S-1 Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission. It was the intent of the Company to pay back all financing arrangements prior to the due dates but that has not occurred primarily from the Company’s inability to raise sufficient capital. As such, the Company is currently in negotiations with its financial arrangements in default relative to extending due dates,changing terms or even exchanging for other Company securties. The Company has been named in a lawsuit by EMA for failing to comply with a Securities Purchase Agreement entered into in June 2019.
