Item 1. Description of Business

 

Overview

 

Treasure Shipwreck & Recovery, Inc. (“TSR”, “us,” “we,”, the “Company”) is focused, through its wholly owned subsidiary TSR Holdings, Inc., on the exploration and recovery of historic shipwrecks. The Company has acquired various assets including a research vessel and specialized sensing equipment to be utilized to attempt to locate and eventually recover artifacts and treasure from historic shipwrecks, generally from the colonial era. The Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary TSR Media Group, Inc., seeks to develop media and gaming based revenue streams based on the treasure salvage operations.

 

Corporate History

 

TSR was incorporated in the State of Nevada on October 24, 2016. The Company was originally incorporated as Beliss Corp. On June 26, 2019, the Company changed its name to Treasure & Shipwreck Recovery, Inc. The Company was originally in the search engine optimization (“SEO”), Internet marketing and web development business. Although TSR does not believe that it will generate any significant new business for its Internet marketing and website development services, the Company is prepared to fulfill any obligations related to customer deposits that were received in prior years.

 

In January 2019, the Company entered into a series of transactions to gain control of a West Virginia based gaming company, Southern Amusement Co. Inc. (“Southern Amusement”). After further review and due diligence, TSR decided that it would not be in the best interests of the Company or its shareholders to acquire Southern Amusement and the Company began to unwind the transaction.

 

While in the process of unwinding the Southern Amusement transaction, the Company began to review various business opportunities. After significant research and analysis, TSR decided to focus its business efforts on the historic shipwreck treasure recovery business. TSR formed TSR Holdings, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary, on August 22, 2019 as a vehicle to conduct its historic shipwreck and recovery operations. During the year ended April 30, 2020, TSR focused its efforts on researching and obtaining information on various prospective historic shipwreck sites and acquiring assets including a research vessel and magnetometer to be utilized in its shipwreck operations, along with location data and scans for shipwreck sites.

 

On April 1, 2020, TSR formed TSR Media Group, Inc. which is a wholly owned subsidiary, in order to develop various digital media properties. TSR Media Group, Inc. entered into an agreement in February of 2020 with a third party app developer to develop a gaming app based on treasure search and salvage. TSR Media Group, Inc. also entered into an agreement, which became effective February 12, 2020 and was later amended on April 26, 2020, to purchase a domain called www.flavorfullapps.com and approximately sixty food related apps that were listed on Amazon.com, Blackberry World and Google Play.

 

As of September 2020, TSR Media Group cancelled the relationship with the game development Company, and entered into a settlement, where by $50,000 of its paid portion was returned along with return of all shares of common stock for cancellation. TSR took it upon other resources to build out the schematics and gaming portion of the Company, through its own internal efforts, and had secondary sources being tracked and giving input for a live, in person game that the Company has schematically gamed out for future profit and endeavors.

Exploration and Salvage of Historic Shipwrecks

 

The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (“UNESCO”) has estimated that there are as many as three million shipwrecks on the floors of the worlds’ oceans. Although it is a fact that many of these shipwrecks were not carrying any items of significant value, historic research documentation shows that it is likely that a percentage of these shipwrecks contained valuable artifacts and treasure, such as gold and silver coins, other precious metals and gems, such as emeralds.

 

In October 2020, TSR entered into an agreement with an experienced treasure diver to provide project management services for the Company’s operations. Additionally, in April of 2021 the Company entered into an agreement with a limited liability company and the individual who controls the limited liability company that has professional rights off the coast of Sebastian, Florida on numerous wrecks of the 1715 fleet. TSR agreed to provide money, equipment and crew to build up the recovery operations in order to assist with the analysis and targets that have previously been located on the site. The original agreement was for a payment of $10,000 per month by TSR to the limited liability company and was expanded to include a salvage vessel whereby TSR agreed to cover cost of retrofitting, maintenance and re equipping it with a state of the art GPS computer system and numerous other detection and recovery systems. TSR believes that this agreement gives the Company access to a perpetually permitted site as a subcontractor and on the numerous wrecks that exists at that location. TSR is providing crew members and all the equipment necessary in order to fulfill the dive season which the Company is actively pursuing and gathering items.

 

TSR, through its wholly owned subsidiary TSR Media Group, Inc. is actively pursuing the media coverage opportunities and expanding its social media presence across the globe with an agreement with a public relations firm that will have the Facebook page, Twitter account, TikTok account, and numerous other sites that will be interactive for the anticipated millions of followers that we will seek to gain to follow the story of TSR as it goes forward. During this same time, TSR has acquired media equipment such as drones and underwater cameras for use in documenting the Company’s operations.

 

The treasure related search and recovery business is highly specialized and requires special research and recovery capabilities. The industry and opportunity may have significant potential. For three hundred years, Spain and other European colonial powers pillaged the new world of treasure, shipping riches in thousands of ships over time back to Europe for the enjoyment and funding of those who never earned it. Along the way, an estimated one out of ten never made it home. Estimates of lost treasure from these ships in the Caribbean and the coast of Florida alone is conservatively placed at $60 billion.

 

Locating, exploring and salvaging historic shipwrecks involves a very lengthy and expensive process. It may take several years to successfully locate and salvage treasure or other valuable artifacts from viable shipwrecks. Moreover, the costs to operate in the historic shipwreck salvage industry can be excessive. These costs and expenses may exceed the economic value of any treasure that is successfully located.

 

Even if TSR is able to successfully locate historic shipwrecks, there are additional challenges to successfully recovering treasure. There are also various laws and regulations, both internationally and domestically, that must be complied with. These laws and regulations could further hamper or delay the Company in successfully locating and recovering treasure. There have been legal cases where shipwrecks were located and valuable treasure was successfully salvaged by one group only to have government or other private entities assert rights to the treasure. Such a situation could cause extensive delays in monetizing the treasure due to legal proceedings. There may also be environmental related laws and regulations for the areas where we conduct shipwreck salvage operations. However, in order to alleviate many of these concerns we are now operating in subcontractor situations where these permits and grants are in place and TSR is avoiding situations where governments would deny permitting and actions due to our responsible conduct with our partners on these locations. So therefore, we are not suffering from delays and oversights of other governmental agencies that are occurring with other treasure related commercial salvage businesses.

 

Furthermore, working in an underwater environment can be hazardous. Difficult weather conditions can significantly delay operations. The condition of wrecks and other natural hazards can impede salvage efforts for long periods of time, potentially many years in some cases. The maintenance and repair issues with salvage vessels and equipment can be continuous and very expensive which may lead to excessive down time.

Even if the Company is able to locate viable shipwrecks that theoretically may contain valuable treasure, there is the possibility that they may have already been stripped of anything of value. They may also not have been carrying anything valuable on board at the time that they were lost at sea. It is the Company’s intent to find shipwrecks where available research suggests there were not any previous recovery efforts or past recovery efforts failed or were not completed. In the event that valuable artifacts are located and recovered, it is possible that the cost of recovery will exceed the value of the artifacts recovered. It is also possible that other entities, including both private parties and governmental entities, will assert conflicting claims and challenge the Company’s rights to the recovered artifacts.

 

Salvage of historic shipwrecks is both very speculative and risky. Only those investors who do not require liquidity and who can afford the loss of their entire investment should consider an investment into TSR’s securities. Investors should also seek advice from a professional financial adviser before purchasing the securities of TSR. The Company was able to secure the immediate bridge financing that was necessary for the complete build out of our vessels, the purchase of state of the art dive equipment, multiple GPS systems that are super accurate, sonar systems as well as detection devices and the maintenance of capable treasure salvage vessels being used to obtain our goals off the East Coast of Florida primarily in the Sebastian area.

 

Treasure Search and Salvage Gaming App

 

The Company hired an app developer to create a gaming app based on treasure search and salvage. TSR believes that there potentially will be significant consumer interest in a downloadable gaming app based on the search for treasure from historic shipwrecks. TSR is currently working with its core in house development side to have a totally on line gaming experience that can be published worldwide. While TSR canceled its previous agreement with a developer that had been Contracted, the Company now has the game being explored through the TSR Media Group, Inc. to be developed.

 

Revenue Sources

 

TSR believes that it has numerous potential revenue routes. Assuming that the Company is able to successfully locate and recover treasure from a historic shipwreck, one revenue opportunity is to keep many artifacts and treasure as assets, to be shown in a planned TSR museum or public display. Second is sale of treasure and artifacts through certain auction houses and arranged product sales for coins, etc. Third is private collector sales. Fourth is road show and museum show fees. Finally, holding rights to television and future gaming revenues from its treasure search and salvage gaming app. for use on phones and other devices. Although the Company is actively working to develop revenue streams from its core treasure recovery business and ancillary business opportunities, it is challenging to project when revenues will be realized, if ever. The Company does not anticipate generating any revenues for the foreseeable future from the treasure recovery business or associated businesses.

 

Competition

 

There are various entities who are working to salvage historic shipwrecks. There are a few small publicly traded companies and numerous private mostly “mom and pop” companies, as well as individuals, who could be considered competitors to locate and salvage treasure from historic shipwrecks. A few of these entities may have access to financing or greater resources than TSR. The Company is evaluating partnerships and joint ventures that it believes would be beneficial for financial or strategic reasons with other industry participants. TSR does not see these other ventures as competitive necessarily except for the fact that if large amounts of Gold, silver and jewels are found it could have a liquidity effect on the market place for sale of such items. However even then many of these items will be kept as assets of the Company therefore increasing the shareholder value which will be able to be booked, held and for potential sale as we go forward. As well the media and gaming side of matters gives TSR a different business plan then others who are in the business. In fact, TSR looks to partner with certain other companies and technologies that are in the treasure business to use such technologies to define down the actual spots where gold, silver, jewelry and other items can be found using their breakthrough technologies.

 

Research and Development Activities and Costs

 

During the years ended April 30, 2021 and 2020, we incurred $20,000 and $120,000, respectively, of research and development costs related to the development of our treasure search and salvage gaming app.

 

COVID-19 Pandemic Threat and Continuity Plan

 

Due to current events involving the global COVID-19 pandemic, TSR, under the guidance of its President, is reviewing procedures to monitor current events as they relate to our business and to be prepared to respond to any potential threats or issues in order to protect the Company and its assets. We are also in the process of reviewing plans to locate a back office for our corporate records and information at a location to be designated so that in the event that access to the Company’s offices are restricted, the Company is able to continue with its business and operations.

The Company’s operations may be adversely affected by the ongoing outbreak of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) which was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization (“WHO”) in March 2020. The ultimate disruption which may be caused by the outbreak is uncertain; however, it may result in a material adverse impact on the TSR’s financial position, operations and cash flows.

 

Possible effects may include, but are not limited to, disruption to the Company’s operations, inability of management team members and other key personnel and consultants to provide services or provide services in a timely manner, unavailability of equipment, parts and supplies used in operations, lack of access to maintenance and repair facilities for the Company’s salvage vessel, and a decline in the value of the Company’s assets including its salvage vessel, equipment and its digital properties.

 

Additionally, it is possible that the Company is not able to obtain financing due to COVID-19’s effects on the general economy and the capital markets. If the Company is not able to obtain financing due to COVID-19 then it is highly likely that it will be forced to cease its operations. The impact of smaller companies such as TSR having to cease operations due to effects of COVID-19 would likely result in the Company not being able to survive and would cause a complete loss of all capital invested in the Company.

 

Employees

 

Other than our President and CFO, Craig Huffman, we have no full-time or part-time employees of our business or operations who are employed by TSR.

Pursuant to Chapter 86 of the Florida Statutes the Court will render a decision whether the Company had ever met the definition of being a shell company under Rule 405 of the Securities Act, so that all shareholders would be able to utilize Rule 144, and otherwise be able to enjoy complete ownership and sale of such shares.

Item 5. Market for Common Equity and Related Stockholder Matters

 

Market Information

 

Our common stock is presently quoted on the Pink Sheets under the symbol “BLIS”, as reflected below, though the current trading volume is small. No assurance can be given that any market for our common stock will continue in the future or be maintained. If an “established trading market” ever develops in the future, the sale of “restricted securities” (common stock) pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities and Exchange Commission by members of management, consultants, promissory note holders or others may have a substantial adverse impact on any such market and the sale of restricted securities by management or others may significantly depress the market price of the Company’s shares. There is currently a limited trading market for our securities on the Pink Sheets. We cannot assure when and if an active-trading market in our shares will be established, or whether any such market will be sustained or sufficiently liquid to enable holders of shares of our common stock to liquidate their investment in our company. If an active public market should develop in the future, the sale of unregistered and restricted securities by current shareholders may potentially have a substantial negative impact on any such market. The Company’s share price is quoted on the Pink Sheets. Accordingly, an investment in our securities should only be considered by those investors who do not require liquidity and can afford to suffer a total loss of their investment. An investor should consider consulting with professional advisers before making such an investment. Furthermore, the price of our common stock may be subject to a very high degree of volatility, which makes owning shares of our common stock highly risky. Shareholders may find it to be very difficult to deposit our shares into a brokerage account and should consult with a financial advisor before purchasing TSR’s shares.

 

Our stock price fluctuated between $0.70 and $0.04 for the year ended April 30, 2021 and $9.00 and $0.09 for the year ended April 30, 2020. The price of our shares may fluctuate significantly despite the absence of any apparent reason. In addition, our stock is thinly traded, leading to even greater volatility. You should expect this volatility to continue into the foreseeable future.

 

The following table reflects the high and low prices of our stock for each quarter during the periods ended April 30, 2021 and 2020:

 

Quarter Ended High Price Low Price
July 31, 2019 9.00 3.65
October 31, 2019 5.90 2.26

Other Stockholder Matters

 

In February 2019, the Company issued 5,500,000 restricted control shares to J.D. Brammer under the acquisition agreement in order for Mr. Brammer to meet the qualification of Southern Amusement being acquired into the Company where the State of West Virginia required control of the company since it was involved in the lottery business, to be held by a registered and cleared individual, which Mr. Brammer is and has been. So the additional shares were issued under certain restrictions to Mr. Brammer for purposes of control under West Virginia law. In the event the transaction could not occur or licensing issues occurred, then Mr. Brammer would surrender control of such shares to the Escrow Agent. Effective April 28, 2019, such transaction was cancelled and such shares changed control to Mr. Craig A. Huffman, the Escrow Agent and Counsel for the Company for later transaction, via agreement. The shares continued under Mr. Brammers name on book form with the transfer agent, but all rights to such shares were surrendered by Mr. Brammer. In order to purchase the control of Southern Amusement, an additional 571,429 shares of restricted common stock were issued to Vicki Ferrell who was part owner of Southern Amusement for the Company to receive her shares. At the cancellation of the transaction, those shares were also under the control of Craig A. Huffman for cancellation as required in the immediate future upon direction of the board of directors. All of the shares held by Mr. Bramer were cancelled except for 100,000 shares that were allowed to remain in his name as a consultant going forward for potential use of the game in the lottery system in West Virginia. The additional shares from Vicki Ferrell are awaiting cancellation under the agreement. Additionally, the shares that were issued to the game developer have been cancelled

The Company recorded other income of $82,500 and $0 during the years ended April 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively due to the Company having received a refund on gaming app related fees under a settlement agreement.

 

Net Loss

 

The net loss for the years ended April 30, 2021 and 2020 was $583,802 and $592,237, respectively.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources and Cash Requirements

 

At April 30, 2021, the Company had cash of $197,761. Furthermore, the Company had working capital of $91,841 as compared to a working capital deficit of $120,675 at April 30, 2020. The Company’s working capital balance increased in 2021 due to the receipt of financing from two convertible promissory notes.

 

During the year ended April 30, 2021, the Company used $368,872 of cash in operating activities. This is a decrease compared to $444,782 used in 2020. This decrease is due to a decrease in net loss and accounts payable, an increase in stock based compensation, depreciation and other expenses associated with the expansion of the business.

 

During the year ended April 30, 2021, the Company did not use any cash in investing activities. This is a decrease compared to the year ended April 30, 2020 during which the Company used $60,390 of cash in investing activities. In 2020 the Company purchased a diving vessel and a magnetometer which were capitalized on the balance sheet as fixed assets.

 

During the year ended April 30, 2021, the Company had $559,955 of cash from financing activities from the sale of stock and an increase in short term loans. This was an increase compared to the $511,850 of cash from financing activities in 2020.

 

As of the date of this report, the current funds available to the Company will not be sufficient to continue maintaining a reporting status. At April 30, 2021, the Company’s working capital was $91,841. The Company is in immediate need of further working capital and is seeking options, with respect to financing, in the form of debt, equity or a combination thereof. Based on its historical rate of expenditures, the Company expects to expend its available cash in less than six months from August 12, 2021.

The Company may not be able to continue as a going concern. The report of our independent auditors for the years ended April 30, 2021 and 2020 raises substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. Our independent auditors believe, based on our financial results as of April 30, 2021, that such results raised substantial doubts about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If the Company is not able to continue as a going concern, it is highly likely that all capital invested in the Company will be lost.

 

Additionally, it is possible that the Company may face additional challenges in obtaining financing due to COVID-19’s effects on the general economy and the capital markets. If the Company is not able to obtain financing due to COVID-19 then it is highly likely it will be forced to cease operations and shut down its business, which would likely result in a complete loss of all capital invested in the Company.

 

Management believes that current trends toward lower capital investment in start-up companies pose the most significant challenge to the Company’s success over the next year and in future years. Additionally, the Company will have to meet all the financial disclosure and reporting requirements associated with being a publicly reporting company. The Company’s management will have to spend additional time on policies and procedures to make sure it is compliant with various regulatory requirements, especially that of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. This additional corporate governance time required of management could limit the amount of time management has to implement its business plan and impede the speed of its operations.

 

Limited operating history; need for additional capital

 

There is no historical financial information about us upon which to base an evaluation of our performance. We are in a start-up stage of operations and have generated very negligible revenues since inception. We cannot guarantee that we will be successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise, including limited capital resources and possible cost overruns due to price and cost increases in services and products.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Treasure & Shipwreck Recovery, Inc.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Treasure & Shipwreck Recovery, Inc. (the Company) as of April 30, 2021 and 2020, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended April 30, 2021, and the related notes and schedules (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of April 30, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended April 30, 2021, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

Critical Audit Matters

 

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

 

Convertible Notes Payable

 

As described in Note 3 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements, the Company accounts for convertible notes deemed conventional and conversion options embedded in non-conventional convertible notes which qualify as equity under ASC 815, in accordance with the provisions of ASC 470-20, which provides guidance on accounting for convertible securities with beneficial conversion features. Accordingly, the Company records, as a discount to convertible notes, the intrinsic value of such conversion options based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note.

F-2

 

We identified the Company’s application of the accounting for convertible notes as a critical audit matter. The principal considerations for our determination of this critical audit matter related to transactions which could potentially require a high degree of subjectivity in the Company’s judgments in determining the qualitative factors. Auditing these judgments and assumptions by the Company involves auditor judgment due to the nature and extent of audit evidence and effort required to address these matters.

 

The primary procedures we performed to address these critical audit matters included the following:

We obtained debt related agreements and performed the following procedures:
-Reviewed agreements for all relevant terms.
-Tested management’s identification and treatment of agreement terms.
-Recalculated the fair value of each conversion feature based on the terms in the agreements.
-Assessed the terms and evaluated the appropriateness of management’s application of their accounting policies, along with their use of estimates, in the determination of the amortization of the debt discount.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Intangible Assets

 

As described in Note 3 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements, the Company reviews for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of long-lived assets may not be recoverable, at least annually for identified intangible assets. When impairment indicators exist, the Company uses market quotes, if available or an estimate of the future undiscounted net cash flows of the related asset or asset group over the remaining life in measuring whether or not the asset values are recoverable

 

We identified the Company’s application of impairment of long-lived assets and intangible assets as a critical audit matter. The principal considerations for our determination of this critical audit matter related to the high degree of subjectivity in the Company’s judgments in determining the qualitative factors. Auditing these judgments and assumptions by the Company involves auditor judgment due to the nature and extent of audit evidence and effort required to address these matters.

 

The primary procedures we performed to address these critical audit matters included the following:

We obtained management’s impairment analysis on the assets and performed the following procedures:
-Reviewed the analysis.
-Tested supporting documentation related to management’s conclusion that the expected future cash flows is greater than the carrying value.
-Assessed the assumptions used by management and evaluated the appropriateness of management’s application of their accounting policies, along with their use of estimates, in the determination that no impairment exists.

 

Substantial Doubt about the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2, the Company has incurred net losses and negative cash flow from operations since inception. These factors, and the need for additional financing in order for the Company to meet its business plans raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified with respect to that matter.

 

 

 

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2019.

Treasure & Shipwreck Recovery Inc.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Years ended April 30, 2021 and 2020

    

Note 1 – ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

   

Treasure & Shipwreck Recovery, Inc. (“TSR” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on October 24, 2016 as Beliss Corp. The Company changed its name to Treasure & Shipwreck Recovery, Inc. on June 26, 2019.

 

TSR formed TSR Holdings, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary, on August 22, 2019 as the Company’s operating vehicle to focus on the recovery of sunken treasure from historic shipwrecks. The Company was originally focused on the development of high impact internet marketing, search engine optimization (“SEO”) software and techniques, and the development of digital properties (collectively “Internet Marketing”).

 

On April 6, 2020, TSR formed TSR Media Group, Inc. (“TSR Media”), a wholly owned subsidiary, in order to develop various digital media properties. TSR Media is in the process of developing, through an outside app developer, a treasure search and salvage gaming app. TSR Media also entered into an agreement to purchase a domain called www.flavorfullapps.com and approximately 60 food related apps that are currently listed on Amazon.com, Blackberry World and Google Play. While these agreements were cancelled in September of 2020, TSR Media Group continues to pursue a gaming app related to the search and recovery of treasure and various media rights.

 

Note 2 – GOING CONCERN

 

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has incurred net losses since inception, which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Based on its historical rate of expenditures, the Company expects to expend its available cash in less than one month from August 12, 2021. Management’s plans include raising capital through the equity markets to fund operations and, eventually, the generation of revenue through its business. The Company does not expect to generate any significant revenues for the foreseeable future. At April 30, 2021, the Company had net working capital of $91,841. The Company is in immediate need of further working capital and is seeking options, with respect to financing, in the form of debt, equity or a combination thereof.

 

Failure to raise adequate capital and generate adequate revenues could result in the Company having to curtail or cease operations. The Company’s ability to raise additional capital through the future issuances of the common stock is unknown. Additionally, even if the Company does raise sufficient capital to support its operating expenses and generate adequate revenues, there can be no assurances that the revenue will be sufficient to enable it to develop to a level where it will generate profits and cash flows from operations. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern; however, the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classifications of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Covid-19 Disclosure

 

The Company’s operations may be adversely affected by the ongoing outbreak of the coronavirus disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) which was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization (“WHO”) in March 2020. The ultimate disruption which may be caused by the outbreak is uncertain; however, it may result in a material adverse impact on TSR’s financial position, operations and cash flows.

 

Additionally, it is possible that the Company may face additional challenges in obtaining financing due to COVID-19’s effects on the general economy and the capital markets. If the Company is not able to obtain financing due to COVID-19, then it is highly likely that it will be forced to cease operations. The impact on smaller companies such as TSR of having to cease operations due to the effects of COVID-19 would likely result in the Company not being able to survive and would cause a complete loss of all capital invested in the Company.

 

To date TSR has not suffered any significant setback due to COVID-19 interfering with operations.

 

Note 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

This summary of significant accounting policies of TSR is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, who are responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. The Company’s year-end is April 30.

F-8

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of TSR Holdings, Inc. and TSR Media Group, Inc., which are wholly owned subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The process of preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions regarding certain types of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Significant estimates for the years ended April 30, 2021 and 2020 include the useful life of property and equipment, valuation allowances against deferred tax assets and fair value of non cash equity transactions.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments and short-term debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

There were no cash equivalents at April 30, 2021 and 2020. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist principally of cash deposits. Accounts at each institution are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000. As of April 30, 2021, the Company had $0 in excess of the FDIC insured limit.

 

Research and Development Expenses

 

Expenditures for research and development are expensed as incurred.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from contracts with customers. The core principle of ASC 606 is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. An entity recognizes revenue in accordance with that core principle by applying the following steps: Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with a customer, Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract, Step 3: Determine the transaction price, Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and Step 5: Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. Specifically, Section 606-10-50 requires an entity to provide information about: a. Revenue recognized from contracts with customers, including the disaggregation of revenue into appropriate categories; b. Contract balances, including the opening and closing balances of receivables, contract assets, and contract liabilities; c. Performance obligations, including when the entity typically satisfies its performance obligations and the transaction price that is allocated to the remaining performance obligations in a contract; and d. Significant judgments, and changes in judgments, made in applying the requirements to those contracts.

 

For the Company’s service contracts, the services provided are considered to be one single performance obligation. Revenue and expenses are recognized as services are rendered. The average period for satisfying the performance obligation is three months. The Company has analyzed all of its contracts and can confirm that all the requirements are considered in these contracts:

 

1) The contracts with customers were identified;

2) The performance obligation was the creation of a website and the provision of SEO-optimization and other services for this site;

3) The transaction price was determined;

4) The Company has only one performance obligation, so the whole transaction price is related to this performance obligation;

5) The revenue was recognized when the performance obligation had been satisfied.

 

The Company offers no discounts, rebates, rights of return, or other allowances to clients which would result in the establishment of reserves against service revenue. Additionally, to date, the Company has not incurred incremental costs in obtaining a client contract.

 

Basic Loss per Share

 

The Company has adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 260-10, which provides for the calculation of “basic” and “diluted” earnings per share. Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing net income or loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of an entity.

 

The potentially dilutive common stock equivalents for the years ended April 30, 2021 and 2020 were excluded from the dilutive loss per share calculation as they would be antidilutive due to the net loss. As of April 30, 2021 and 2020, there were approximately 3,137,596 and 16,869 shares of common stock underlying our outstanding convertible notes payable and warrants, respectively.

F-9

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, accounts payable, short term loans, and the Company’s related party convertible loan from a shareholder approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.

 

Fixed Assets

 

Fixed assets are recorded at historical cost. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Gains and losses upon disposition are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations in the period of disposition. Maintenance and repair expenditures are charged to expense as incurred. Currently the Company’s only assets are a diving vessel and a magnetometer. They are being depreciated over three to twelve year useful lives.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived and Intangible Assets

 

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the book value of the asset may not be recoverable. The Company periodically evaluates whether events and circumstances have occurred that indicate possible impairment. When impairment indicators exist, the Company uses market quotes, if available or an estimate of the future undiscounted net cash flows of the related asset or asset group over the remaining life in measuring whether or not the asset values are recoverable. At April 30, 2021, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $62,333 on a website and related apps that were acquired during the year ended April 30, 2020. Identified intangible assets are reviewed for impairment at least annually, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company’s existing intangible assets consists solely of trademarks.

 

Stock Based Compensation to Employees and Service Providers

 

The Company recognizes all share-based payments to employees and service providers, including grants of employee stock options, as compensation expense in the consolidated financial statements based on their fair values.

Convertible Notes Payable

 

The Company accounts for convertible notes deemed conventional and conversion options embedded in non-conventional convertible notes which qualify as equity under ASC 815, in accordance with the provisions of ASC 470-20, which provides guidance on accounting for convertible securities with beneficial conversion features. ASC 470-10 addresses classification determination for specific obligations, such as short-term obligations expected to be refinanced on a long-term basis, due-on-demand loan arrangements, callable debt, sales of future revenue, increasing rate debt, debt that includes covenants, revolving credit agreements subject to lock-box arrangements and subjective acceleration clauses. Accordingly, the Company records, as a discount to convertible notes, the intrinsic value of such conversion options based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. Debt discounts under these arrangements are amortized over the term of the related debt.

New Convertible Notes Payable Issued During the Years Ended April 31, 2021 and 2020

 

On April 22, 2021, the Company entered into a convertible note payable with a corporation.  The note payable, with a face value of $250,000, including a $25,000 original issue discount, bears interest at 10.0% per annum and is due on April 26, 2022. The convertible note payable is convertible, at the holder’s option, into the Company’s common shares at a fixed conversation rate of $0.10.

Under the terms of the Mutual Release and Settlement Agreement, the game app developer agreed to pay TSR Media $50,000. Additionally, the outstanding amount owed by TSR Media, $32,500, was cancelled.

Note 9 – INCOME TAXES

 

The Company adopted the provisions of uncertain tax positions as addressed in ASC 740-10-65-1. As a result of the implementation of ASC 740-10-65-1, the Company recognized no increase in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits.

 

The Company has no tax position at April 30, 2021 for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility. The Company does not recognize interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses. No such interest or penalties were recognized during the period presented. The Company had no accruals for interest and penalties at April 30, 2021. The Company’s utilization of any net operating loss carry forward may be unlikely as a result of its intended activities.

 

The valuation allowance at April 30, 2021 and 2020 was $265,627 and $143,029, respectively. The net change in valuation allowance during the years ended April 30, 2021 and 2020 were $122,598 and $124,370, respectively. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred income tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred income tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on consideration of these items, management has determined that enough uncertainty exists relative to the realization of the deferred income tax asset balances to warrant the application of a full valuation allowance as of April 30, 2021 and 2020.  All tax years since inception remains open for examination only by taxing authorities.

Reconciliation between the provision for income taxes and the expected tax benefit using the federal statutory rate of 21% for 2021 and 2020:

The Company has a net operating loss carryforward for tax purposes totaling $1,227,558 at April 30, 2021, expiring through 2035. There is a limitation on the amount of taxable income that can be offset by carryforwards after a change in control (generally greater than a 50% change in ownership). Temporary differences, which give rise to a net deferred tax asset, are as follows:

 

   As of April 30, 2021   As of April 30, 2020 
Non-current deferred tax assets:          
Net operating loss carryforward  $1,264,891   $681,089

Deferred tax asset   265,627    143,029 
Valuation allowance   (265,627)   (143,029)
Net deferred tax assets  $-   $- 

 

The Company is currently in the process of gathering the information necessary for filing tax returns for past years, due to the Company’s lack of revenue since inception management does not believe that there is any income tax liability for past years.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

 

(a) Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

 

Management’s Responsibility for Controls and Procedures

 

The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over the Company’s financial reporting. The Company’s controls over financial reporting are designed under the supervision of the Company’s President and Principal Financial Officer to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our President and Chief Financial Officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act, as of April 30, 2021. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our financial disclosure controls and procedures were not effective so as to timely record, process, summarize and report financial information required to be included on our Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) reports due to the Company’s limited internal resources and lack of ability to have multiple levels of transaction review. However, as a result of our evaluation and review process, management believes that the financial statements and other information presented herewith are materially correct.

 

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

As of April 30, 2021, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operations of our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and based on the criteria for effective internal control described in Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (as revised). Based on our evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective so as to timely record, process, summarize and report financial information required to be included on our SEC reports due to the Company’s limited internal resources and lack of ability to have multiple levels of transaction review. However, as a result of our evaluation and review process, management believes that the financial statements and other information presented herewith are materially correct.

 

The management including its Principal Executive Officer/Principal Financial Officer, does not expect that its disclosure controls and procedures, or its internal controls over financial reporting will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable not absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of the control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefit of controls must be considered relative to their costs.

 

Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.

 

The Company has limited resources and as a result, a material weakness in financial reporting currently exists, because of our limited resources and personnel, including those described below.

 

*The Company has an insufficient quantity of dedicated resources and experienced personnel involved in reviewing and designing internal controls. As a result, a material misstatement of the interim and annual financial statements could occur and not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

 

*We have not achieved the optimal level of segregation of duties relative to key financial reporting functions.

 

*We do not have an audit committee or an independent audit committee financial expert. While not being legally obligated to have an audit committee or independent audit committee financial expert, it is managements view that to have an audit committee, comprised of independent board members, and an independent audit committee financial expert is an important entity-level control over the Company’s financial statements.

 

A material weakness is a deficiency (within the meaning of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) auditing standard 5) or combination of deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management has determined that a material weakness exists due to a lack of segregation of duties, resulting from the Company’s limited resources and personnel.

Remediation Efforts to Address Deficiencies in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

As a result of these findings, management, upon obtaining sufficient capital and operations, intends to take practical, cost-effective steps in implementing internal controls, including the possible remedial measures set forth below. As of April 30, 2021, we did not have sufficient capital and/or operations to implement any of the remedial measures described below.

 

*Assessing the current duties of existing personnel and consultants, assigning additional duties to existing personnel and consultants, and, in a cost effective manner, potentially hiring additional personnel to assist with the preparation of the Company’s financial statements to allow for proper segregation of duties, as well as additional resources for control documentation.

 

*Assessing the duties of the existing officers of the Company and, in a cost effective manner, possibly promote or hire additional personnel to diversify duties and responsibilities of such executive officers.

 

*Board to review and make recommendations to shareholders concerning the composition of the Board of Directors, with particular focus on issues of independence. The Board of Directors will consider nominating an audit committee and audit committee financial expert, which may or may not consist of independent members.

 

*Interviewing and potentially hiring outside consultants that are experts in designing internal controls over financial reporting based on criteria established in Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) (as revised).

 

This annual 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 temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

 Corporate Governance

 

The Company does not have a compensation committee and it does not have an audit committee financial expert. It does not have a compensation committee because its Board of Directors consists of only one director whom is not independent, as he is also an officer. There is no independent audit committee financial expert because it is believed the cost related to retaining a financial expert at this time is prohibitive due to the current circumstances of the Company. Further, because there are only minimal operations at the present time, it is believed the services of a financial expert are not warranted.

 

Conflicts of Interest

 

The Company does not currently foresee any conflict of interest.

 

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

 

16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the company directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than ten percent of the Company’s common stock, to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial reports of ownership and reports of changes of ownership of its common stock. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent shareholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish the company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file. The Company intends to ensure to the best of its ability that all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to its officers, directors and greater than ten percent beneficial owners are complied with in a timely fashion.
