NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

(UNAUDITED)

 

NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

Organization and Nature of Business

 

Code Green Apparel Corp., formerly known as Gold Standard Mining Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Nevada on December 11, 2007 as Fluid Solutions, Inc. On May 6, 2009, Fluid Solutions, Inc. acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Gold Standard Mining Corp., a Wyoming corporation (“GS Wyoming”), in exchange for 100,669,998 shares of its common stock pursuant to an Exchange Agreement dated May 6, 2009 with that corporation and its shareholders. Concurrently with the acquisition, Pantelis Zachos, its Chief Executive Officer and a director, tendered 59,400,000 shares of common stock back to Fluid Solutions, Inc. for retirement.

 

On May 18, 2009, Fluid Solutions, Inc. changed its name to “Gold Standard Mining Corp.” and effected a 3.3 to 1 forward stock split. This split has been retroactively reflected in these financial statements.

 

As of the date that the Company acquired GS Wyoming, GS Wyoming’s principal asset was rights under an Exchange Agreement, dated February 9, 2009, pursuant to which GS Wyoming had agreed to acquire Rosszoloto Co. Ltd., a limited liability company organized under the laws of Russia (“Rosszoloto”), in a stock exchange. Rosszoloto is engaged in the business of gold mining in the Amur region of Russia near the border between Russia and China. The Company completed the acquisition of Rosszoloto in June 2010. The Company issued a total of 100,669,998 shares of common stock to the shareholders of GS Wyoming.

 

In the spring of 2011, during the course of preparation of financial statements of the Company, the Board of Directors concluded that the Company could not get the financial information regarding Rosszoloto necessary for the financial statements of the Company, including Rosszoloto, to be audited. Based on this, in May 2011, the Company rescinded the acquisition of Rosszoloto and has treated the transaction as never having occurred. In connection with such rescission, the Company received back 51,499,998 shares of its common stock that were issued to acquire GS Wyoming.

 

On July 17, 2012, Gold Standard Mining Corp. changed its name to “J.D. Hutt Corporation” as it sought to engage in opportunities outside of mining and natural resource exploration. From that time, and for a period of nearly two years, the Company’s operations consisted of seeking other opportunities. On April 26, 2014, and with the appointment of George Powell as its CEO and Director, the Company officially changed its business model to offer eco-friendly corporate apparel primarily constructed from recycled textiles. To better reflect the Company’s change in business direction, the Company officially changed its name to “Code Green Apparel Corp.” on May 15, 2015.

 

The Company is a publicly held Nevada corporation, whose common stock trades on the OTC Market Group, Inc.’s Pink Sheets under the trading symbol, “CGAC.

 

Basis of Presentation and Going Concern

 

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. 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 periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

 

The Company has generated only limited revenues from operations since inception. Since inception, it has incurred significant losses to date, and as of September 30, 2016, has a working capital deficit of approximately $1,800,000, and an accumulated deficit of approximately $12,800,000. The Company’s ability to continue its operations is uncertain and is dependent upon its ability to implement a business plan sufficient to generate a positive cash flow and/or raise capital to fund its operations.

 

 5

 

 

These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue operations in the normal course of business.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and timing of revenues and expenses, the reported amounts and classification of assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. These estimates and assumptions are based on the Company’s historical results as well as management’s future expectations. The Company’s actual results could vary materially from management’s estimates and assumptions. Additionally, interim results may not be indicative of the Company’s results for future interim periods, or the Company’s annual results.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and cash in time deposits, certificates of deposit and all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market. The Company periodically reviews its inventories for indications of slow movement and obsolescence and records an allowance when it is deemed necessary.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes gross sales when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, title transfer has occurred, the price is fixed or readily determinable, and collection is probable. It recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605, Revenue Recognition (“ASC 605”).

 

Stock Based Compensation

 

The Company from time to time issues shares of common stock for services. These issuances have been valued at the estimated fair market value of the services since its stock is thinly traded and the Company has raised minimal cash from sales of stock.

 

Disclosure About Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company estimates that the fair value of all financial instruments at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 do not differ materially from the aggregate carrying values of its financial instruments recorded in the accompanying condensed balance sheets. The estimated fair value amounts have been determined by the Company using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. Considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop the estimates of fair value, and accordingly, the estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses the Black-Scholes-Merton pricing model to value the derivative instruments. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

 

 6

 

 

The Company has determined that certain convertible debt instruments outstanding as of the date of these financial statements include an exercise price “reset” adjustment that qualifies as derivative financial instruments under the provisions of ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in an Entity’s Own Stock (“ASC 815-40”). Certain of the convertible debentures have a variable exercise price, thus are convertible into an indeterminate number of shares for which we cannot determine if we have sufficient authorized shares to settle the transaction with. Accordingly, the embedded conversion option is a derivative liability and is marked to market through earnings at the end of each reporting period. Any change in fair value during the period recorded in earnings as “Other income (expense) - gain (loss) on change in derivative liabilities.

Net Income (Loss) Per Share

 

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. Any anti-dilutive effects on net income (loss) per share are excluded. The Company has no potentially dilutive securities outstanding at September 30, 2016.

 

Income Taxes

 

Provisions for income taxes are based on taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred taxes on temporary differences between the amount of taxable income and pretax financial income and between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are included in the financial statements at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes.

 

In assessing the recoverability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon generation of future taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences such as loss carry-forwards and tax credits become deductible. Management considers projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment and ensuring that the deferred tax asset valuation allowance is adjusted as appropriate.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In January 2016, the FASB issued an accounting standard update which requires, among other things, that entities measure equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee) at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. Under the standard, entities will no longer be able to recognize unrealized holding gains and losses on equity securities classified today as available for sale as a component of other comprehensive income. For equity investments without readily determinable fair values the cost method of accounting is also eliminated, however subject to certain exceptions, entities will be able to elect to record equity investments without readily determinable fair values at cost, less impairment and plus or minus adjustments for observable price changes, with all such changes recognized in earnings. This new standard does not change the guidance for classifying and measuring investments in debt securities and loans. The standard is effective for us on July 1, 2018 (the first quarter of our 2019 fiscal year). The Company is currently evaluating the anticipated impact of this standard on our financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. Topic 842 affects any entity that enters into a lease, with some specified scope exemptions. The guidance in this Update supersedes Topic 840, Leases. The core principle of Topic 842 is that a lessee should recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases. A lessee should recognize in the statement of financial position a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For public companies, the amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU No. 2016-02 on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net) that clarifies how to apply revenue recognition guidance related to whether an entity is a principal or an agent. ASU 2016-08 clarifies that the analysis must focus on whether the entity has control of the goods or services before they are transferred to the customer and provides additional guidance about how to apply the control principle when services are provided and when goods or services are combined with other goods or services. The effective date for ASU 2016-08 is the same as the effective date of ASU 2014-09 as amended by ASU 2015-14, for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those years. The Company has not yet determined the impact of ASU 2016-08 on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation, or ASU No. 2016-09. The areas for simplification in this Update involve several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. For public entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted in any interim or annual period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. Amendments related to the timing of when excess tax benefits are recognized, minimum statutory withholding requirements, forfeitures, and intrinsic value should be applied using a modified retrospective transition method by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to equity as of the beginning of the period in which the guidance is adopted. Amendments related to the presentation of employee taxes paid on the statement of cash flows when an employer withholds shares to meet the minimum statutory withholding requirement should be applied retrospectively. Amendments requiring recognition of excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies in the income statement and the practical expedient for estimating expected term should be applied prospectively. An entity may elect to apply the amendments related to the presentation of excess tax benefits on the statement of cash flows using either a prospective transition method or a retrospective transition method. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU No. 2016-09 on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, which provides further guidance on identifying performance obligations and improves the operability and understandability of licensing implementation guidance. The effective date for ASU 2016-10 is the same as the effective date of ASU 2014-09 as amended by ASU 2015-14, for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those years. The Company has not yet determined the impact of ASU 2016-10 on its consolidated financial statements.

During December 2015, the Company issued 25,000,000 shares of common stock in conversion of $212,500 of principal on this convertible debt. At September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, $20,000 and $50,000 was owed in service fees, accrued interest was $82,847 and $65,581 and the outstanding convertible debt was $287,500 and $287,500, respectively.

Derivative Liability

 

On May 1, 2014, the Company secured $500,000 in the form of a convertible promissory note. The note bears interest at the rate of 8% per annum until it matures, or until there is an event of default. The note matured on May 1, 2015 and is currently in default. The holder has the option to convert any balance of principal and interest into common stock of the Company. The rate of conversion for the note is calculated as the lowest of the 20 trading closing prices immediately preceding such conversion, discounted by 50%. A total of $287,500 remains outstanding as of September 30, 2016, and a total of $212,500 was converted into 25,000,000 shares of common stock.

 

On December 3, 2015, the Company secured $175,000 in the form of a convertible promissory note. The note does not bear interest until or unless there is an event of default. The note matures on December 3, 2016. The holder has the option to convert any balance of principal into common stock of the Company. The rate of conversion for the note is calculated as the lowest of the 10 trading closing prices immediately preceding such conversion, discounted by 32.5%. The balance of this note was $175,000 as of September 30, 2016. The beneficial conversion feature has a value of $212,500 at September 30, 2016.

 

On June 15, 2016, the Company secured $105,500 from the sale of a convertible promissory note, which contained a $15,825 original issue discount, bringing the principal amount of the note to $121,325.

The rate of conversion for this note is calculated as the average of the three lowest closing prices of the Company’s common stock during the 20 trading days immediately preceding such conversion, discounted by 50%. The outstanding balance of this note was $76,132 as of September 30, 2016. The beneficial conversion feature has a value of $154,755 at September 30, 2016.

On September 23, 2016, the Company secured $55,500 from the sale of a convertible promissory note, which contained an $8,325 original issue discount, bringing the principal amount of the note to $63,825. The note bears interest at 12% per annum. The note matures on September 23, 2017. The holder has the option to convert any balance of principal into common stock of the Company after the initial 180 days. The rate of conversion for this note is calculated as the average of the three lowest closing prices of the Company’s common stock during the 20 trading days immediately preceding such conversion, discounted by 50%. The outstanding balance of this note was $49,119 as of September 30, 2016. The beneficial conversion feature has a value of $106,250 at September 30, 2016.

 

Due to the variable conversion price associated with these convertible promissory notes, the Company has determined that the conversion feature is considered a derivative liability. The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company record the fair value of the derivatives as of the inception date of the Convertible Promissory Note and to adjust the fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date.

 

The initial fair values of the embedded debt derivatives of $500,842, $227,746, $322,660 and $108,458 were charged to current period operations as interest expenses. The fair value of the described embedded derivative was determined using the Black-Scholes Model with the following assumptions:

 

(1) risk free interest rate of 0.10% to 0.45%
(2) dividend yield of 0%;
(3) volatility factor of 248% to 435%;
(4) an expected life of the conversion feature of 365 days; and
(5) estimated fair value of the Company’s common stock of $0.006 to $0.008 per share.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company recorded a loss in fair value of derivative of $136,960.

 

The following table represents the Company’s derivative liability activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2016:

 

Balance at December 31, 2015  $824,468 
Initial measurement at issuance date of the notes   431,118 
Initial measurement due to insufficient shares available for issuance    
Change in derivative liability during the nine months ended September 30, 2016   (294,158)
Balance September 30, 2016  $961,428 

 

NOTE 4 Derivative financial instruments

 

The following table presents the components of the Company’s derivative financial instruments associated with convertible promissory notes (See Note 3) which have no observable market data and are derived using the Black-Scholes option pricing model measured at fair value on a recurring basis, using Level 1 and 3 inputs to the fair value hierarchy, at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015:

 

   2016   2015 
Embedded conversion features  $961,428   $824,468 
Warrants        
Insufficient shares        
Derivative financial instruments  $961,428   $824,468 

 

These derivative financial instruments arise as a result of applying ASC 815 Derivative and Hedging (“ASC 815”), which requires the Company to make a determination whether an equity-linked financial instrument, or embedded feature, is indexed to the entity’s own stock. This guidance applies to any freestanding financial instrument or embedded features that have the characteristics of a derivative, and to any freestanding financial instruments that are potentially settled in an entity’s own stock.

 

 10

 

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company had outstanding notes with embedded conversion features and the Company did not, at this date, have a sufficient number of authorized and available shares of common stock to settle the outstanding contracts which triggered the requirement to account for these instruments as derivative financial instruments until such time as the Company has sufficient authorized shares.

On December 7, 2015, the Company designated a series of Series B Preferred Stock. The Series B Preferred Stock have an original issue price and liquidation preference (pro rata with the common stock) of $10.00 per share. The Series B Preferred Stock provides the holders thereof the right to convert such shares of Series B Preferred Stock into common stock on a 100-for-one basis, provided that no conversion can result in the conversion of more than that number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock, if any, such that, upon such conversion, the aggregate beneficial ownership of the Company’s common stock of any such holder and all persons affiliated with any such holder as described in Rule 13d-3 is more than 4.99% of the Company’s common stock then outstanding (the “Maximum Percentage”). For so long as any shares of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock remain issued and outstanding, the holders thereof are entitled to vote that number of votes as equals the number of shares of common stock into which such holder’s aggregate shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock are convertible, subject to the Maximum Percentage.

 

On December 7, 2015, the Company entered into an Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange”) with its shareholder, Dr. Eric H. Scheffey, whereby Dr. Scheffey exchanged forty million (40,000,000) shares of the Company’s restricted common stock for 40,000 shares of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock.

The intrinsic value, the difference between the subscription price and the underlying price of the common stock on the date of the subscription agreement, has been valued at $250,000. Accordingly, this discount attributable to beneficial conversion privilege of preferred stock has been recorded as a dividend in the current period and an increase in additional paid-in capital.

 

NOTE 7 GOING CONCERN

 

The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has had only limited revenues since inception. Since inception, it has incurred significant losses to date, and as of September 30, 2016, has a working capital deficit of approximately $1,800,000 and has an accumulated deficit of approximately $12,800,000. The Company’s ability to continue its operations is uncertain and is dependent upon its ability to implement a business plan sufficient to generate a positive cash flow and/or raise capital to fund its operations. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue operations in the normal course of business.

 

NOTE 8 ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT

 

Effective on June 23, 2016, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with 10Star LLC (“10Star” and the “Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which, the Company purchased certain contracts, relating to 10Star’s “On the Border” and “7-Eleven” accounts (the “Purchased Accounts”).

The parties agreed to certain post-closing requirements in connection with the Acquisition. We agreed that Chase Daniel, the Chief Executive Officer and majority owner of 10Star, would be invited to serve as a member of the Company’s Board of Directors, subject to the Board of Directors confirming his qualifications, for a period of not less than one (1) year from the closing, which appointment was effective on June 23, 2016. The Company agreed to provide Mr. Daniel, upon payment in full of the Promissory Note, a commission equal to 3% of all net sales (gross sales generated by us, less (i) returns, (ii) discounts, (iii) adjustments, and (iv) allowances) shipped by us (and paid for by customers), relating to the Purchased Accounts, payable monthly in arrears. The Company agreed to keep complete and accurate books and records showing all net sales with respect to the Purchased Accounts and to allow Mr. Daniel audit and inspection rights in connection therewith. In the event any audit reveals a shortfall, we are required to immediately pay such shortfall, with any amount not immediately paid accruing interest at the rate of 15% per annum until paid, and we are required to reimburse Mr. Daniel for the cost of such audit in the event any shortfall is greater than 5% of the amount of commissions paid in the prior 12 months.

 

Amounts due under the Promissory Note accrue interest at the rate of 10% per annum (12% upon the occurrence of an event of default), with all interest payable on the maturity date of the Promissory Note, June 23, 2018, provided that the amounts owed under the Promissory Note can be pre-paid in whole or part at any time prior to maturity. Until the earlier of (a) the maturity date of the Promissory Note; and (b) the date the Promissory Note is paid in full, the Company is required to pay 10Star fifty percent (50%) of the Gross Profits generated by the Company in connection with the Purchased Accounts.

 

NOTE 9 EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

 

In connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into executive employment agreements with Aaron Luna and William Joseph (J.B.) Hill, to serve as Executive Vice Presidents of the Company in May 2016, in anticipation of the Acquisition.

 

The employment agreements with Aaron Luna and William Joseph (J.B.) Hill, as Executive Vice Presidents of the Company, entered into with such executives at closing, each have substantially similar terms, including an effective date of April 1, 2016, an initial term of one year (automatically renewable thereafter for additional one year terms in the event neither party provides the other notice of non-renewal at least 30 days prior to the end of the then term). Both agreements include a base salary as determined by the Board of Directors in its sole and absolute discretion in addition to an equity consideration of 3.75 million restricted shares of common stock to Mr. Luna and 3.25 million restricted shares of common stock to Mr. Hill (the “Restricted Shares”), which Restricted Shares are subject to forfeiture and cancellation until March 31, 2017, pursuant to Restricted Stock Award Agreements, which provide that if the executive’s employment is terminated due to death, the end of the term of the employment agreement, for cause, or by the executive for any reason other than good reason (as defined in the agreements), the vesting of the Restricted Shares ceases on the date of termination and any unvested Restricted Shares are forfeited, provided that if the executive’s employment is terminated by us without cause or by the executive for good reason, any Restricted Shares that are scheduled to vest during the period through the end of the initial term or the then current extension term, if any, vest immediately. In addition to the base salary described above, the executives receive a commission on our net sales (gross sales less (i) returns, (ii) discounts, (iii) adjustments, (iv) allowances, and (v) any and all payments made to 10Star in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement)(“Net Sales”), to accounts other than the Purchased Accounts, determined on a case-by-case basis in the reasonable discretion of the Company; and a commission equal to 1.50% of all Net Sales shipped by us (and paid by customers), for the Purchased Accounts, due monthly in arrears.

During December 2015, the Company issued 25,000,000 shares of common stock in payment of $212,500 of principal on this convertible debt. On July 12, 2016, the Company entered into a Compromise and Settlement Agreement (the “Settlement”) with Anubis, whereby Anubis agreed to accept the sum of $35,000 (which is in addition to $30,000 paid by the Company in June 2016), in complete discharge of all amounts owed by the Company to Anubis.

In September 2016, we entered into a factoring agreement, whereby we sold $14,590 in accounts receivable for $10,000.

 

On September 23, 2016, we sold Carebourn a Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $63,825, representing $55,000 borrowed from Carebourn and an original issue discount of $8,325 (the “September 2016 Carebourn Convertible Note”, and together with the June 2016 Carebourn Convertible Note, the “Carebourn Convertible Notes”), pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated September 23, 2016. The September 2016 Carebourn Convertible Note bears interest at the rate of 12% per annum (22% upon an event of default) and is due and payable on September 23, 2017.

 

The principal amount of the Carebourn Convertible Notes and all accrued interest is convertible at the option of the holder thereof into our common stock at any time following the 180th day after the applicable Carebourn Convertible Note was issued. The conversion price of the Carebourn Convertible Notes is equal to 50% of the average of the lowest three trading prices of our common stock for the 20 trading days prior to the conversion date. At no time could the Carebourn Convertible Notes be converted into shares of our common stock if such conversion would have resulted in Carebourn and its affiliates owning an aggregate of in excess of 4.99% of the then outstanding shares of our common stock, subject to the waiver of such limitation by Carebourn with at least 61 days prior written notice.

 

The Carebourn Convertible Notes provide for customary events of default and contain customary positive and negative covenants. Additionally, upon the occurrence of certain fundamental defaults, as described in the Carebourn Convertible Notes, we are required to pay Carebourn liquidated damages in addition to the amount owed under the Carebourn Convertible Notes.

 

We have the right to prepay in full the unpaid principal and interest on the Carebourn Convertible Notes, upon notice, any time prior to the 364th day after the issuance date of the applicable note, subject to payment of a prepayment amount ranging from 130% to 150% of the then outstanding balance on the Carebourn Convertible Notes (inclusive of accrued and unpaid interest and any default amounts then owing), depending on when such prepayment is made.

We paid $10,000 in fees to a related party of Carebourn’s and $1,000 in attorney’s fees in connection with the sale of the Carebourn Convertible Notes.

 

In the event that the Carebourn Convertible Notes are not repaid in cash in their entirety, Company shareholders may suffer dilution if and to the extent that the balance of the Carebourn Convertible Notes are converted into common stock.

 

Plan of Operations

 

We have commenced shipping products to several customers, including On the Border Restaurants, 7 Eleven, Frisco Rivet and numerous specialty based accounts. We are also working diligently to finalize programs with numerous other accounts. Notwithstanding the above, we believe we need $1.2 million of additional funding for production in the near term and for our operations for the next 12 months and $2.5 million for our operations over the next 24 months, as described below. We plan to raise funding subsequent to the date of this report through the sale of debt or equity, which may not be available on favorable terms, if at all. We require additional funding to (a) fund production on new programs that are coming on line; (b) fund additional sales and marketing programs to enhance revenue growth; (c) fund development of and warehouse inventory for an E-Commerce site; (d) fund synergistic acquisitions; and (e) to bridge operational working capital until such time, if ever, as we can generate sufficient revenues to support our expenses. If we are unable to access additional capital moving forward, it will hurt our ability to grow and to generate future revenues. We may not be able to increase sales or obtain additional financing, if necessary, at a level to meet our current obligations to continue as a going concern.

Operating expenses

 

The Company incurred $148,477 in selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2016, a $190,143 or 56% decrease from $338,620 of selling, general and administrative expenses incurred during the three months ended September 30, 2015, for the reasons described below. Selling, general and administrative expenses consist of expenses the Company incurs during day-to-day operations.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company incurred $61,050 of consulting expenses, which are included under selling, general and administrative expenses. The Company incurred no consulting expenses during the three months ended September 30, 2015. Consulting expenses relate the development of products within the corporate logo wear industry made from sustainable textiles.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company incurred $21,899 of legal, accounting and professional expense, which are included under selling, general and administrative expenses, which is a $150,114 decrease from the $172,013 incurred during the three months ended September 30, 2015. Legal, accounting and professional expense relates to the Company’s registration statement and periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The main reason for the decrease in professional fees was the cost of the preparation of the Company’s Form S-1 registration statement during the prior period.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company incurred $2,610 of product development expenses, which are included under selling, general and administrative expenses, which is an $88,404 decrease compared to the $91,014 incurred during the three months ended September 30, 2015. The product development costs relate to the development of products within the corporate logo wear industry made from sustainable textiles, and were higher in the prior period as the Company was just starting its operations during that period. Over time we anticipate product development expenses leveling out, provided that as we get requests for products from new clients we will see spikes in our development costs as each customer will want specific items developed for their specific needs. We will likely experience ups and downs with regards to product development costs for these specific reasons in the foreseeable future.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company incurred $6,012 of travel expenses, which are included under selling, general and administrative expenses, which is a $37,846 decrease from the $43,858 incurred during the three months ended September 30, 2015. Travel expenses relate to the efforts by management to meet with new customers and potential customers and vary from period-to-period. Over time the Company expects to see a leveling off of these costs; however, as the Company grows the Company anticipates these expenses increasing.

 

Other income (expense)

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company reported $34,607 of interest expense compared to $10,082 reported during the three months ended September 30, 2015. The interest expense relates to promissory notes outstanding as described in greater detail in Note 2 and 3 to the financial statements included herein.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company recognized a gain in the amount of $456,744 as a result of the initial valuation and revaluation of the derivative liabilities (see Note 4 of the financial statements included herein). During the three months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recognized a loss in the amount of $3,188 as a result of the revaluation of the derivative liability.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2016, the Company recognized additional derivative gain in the amount of $905,980 related to the derivative created due to having an insufficient number of shares of common stock available for conversion of outstanding convertible notes in the event such convertible notes are converted in full.

 

 17

 

 

Net income (loss)  

 

The Company had net income for three months ended September 30, 2016, of $1,215,203, a $1,567,093 increase from the $351,890 net loss incurred during the three months ended September 30, 2015. The increase in net income was primarily due to the change in fair value of derivative and derivative liability gain, both of which were non-cash items.

Other income (expense)  

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the Company reported $66,526 of interest expense compared to $34,908 reported during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The interest expense relates to the promissory notes outstanding as described in greater detail in Note 2 and 3 to the financial statements included herein.

The intrinsic value, the difference between the subscription price and the underlying price of the common stock on the date of the subscription agreement, has been valued at $250,000. Accordingly, this discount attributable to the beneficial conversion privilege of the preferred stock has been recorded as an expense in the current period loss and an increase in additional paid-in capital.

 

19 

 

 

Net loss  

 

The Company had a net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 of $1,163,406, a $1,142,605 decrease from the net loss of $1,806,011 incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The decrease in net loss was primarily due to the reasons described above.  

 

Liquidity and capital resources  

 

The Company had an accumulated deficit at September 30, 2016 of approximately $12.8 million. The Company incurred a loss of $1,163,406 during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and has negative working capital of $1,816,684 as of September 30, 2016. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis, to obtain additional financing or refinancing as may be required and, ultimately, to attain profitable operations. Management’s plans to eliminate the going concern situation include, but are not limited to, the raise of additional capital through issuance of debt and equity, improved cash flow management. Failure to raise additional capital or improve its performance in the next 12 months will cause the Company to significantly curtail its business activities and expansion plans within the next twelve months.

 

The Company has $5,472 in cash as of September 30, 2016 compared to $32,205 as of December 31, 2015 as a result of stock subscriptions and convertible debentures sold during the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

 

We had $467,148 of total assets as of September 30, 2016, consisting of cash of $5,472, accounts receivable of $128,323, inventory of $69,552, fixed assets, net of $13,801 and goodwill related to the purchase of the assets of 10Star during the period of $250,000.

 

We had total liabilities of $2,220,031 as of September 30, 2016, including accounts payable and accrued expenses of $283,292, accrued interest on our convertible notes of $100,299, notes payable of $291,645, convertible notes, net of discount, of $583,367 and derivative liability of $961,428.

 

Our outstanding promissory notes, convertible notes and derivative liability are described in greater detail in Notes 2, 3 and 4, to the financial statements attached herein.

   2016   2015 
Net cash used by operating activities  $(464,422)  $(738,439)

Net cash provided by financing activities  $452,223   $895,000

Investing Activities  

 

Net cash used by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was solely due to the purchase of fixed assets of $14,534.

 

Financing Activities

20 

 

 

From time to time, we may attempt to raise capital through either equity or debt offerings. Our capital requirements will depend on many factors, including, among other things, the rate at which our business grows, with corresponding demands for working capital and expansion capacity. We could be required, or may elect, to seek additional funding through public or private equity, debt financing or bank financing.

 

Critical Estimates and Judgments  

 

The preparation of the Company’s financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to receivables and accrued expenses. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable based on the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements include estimates as to the appropriate carrying value of the Company’s intangible assets, the amount of stock compensation, and the amount of accrued liabilities that are not readily attainable from other sources. These accounting policies are described at relevant sections in this discussion and analysis and in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.  

 

The discussion in this report contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The Company’s future actual results may differ materially from the results discussed herein, including those in the forward-looking statements.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

Pursuant to Item 305(e) of Regulation S-K (§ 229.305(e)), the Company is not required to provide the information required by this Item as it is a “smaller reporting company,” as defined by Rule 229.10(f)(1).

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We have established and maintain a system of disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed with the Commission pursuant to the Exchange, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Commission and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Interim Chief Financial Officer (CFO), to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

 

Management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report. As of September 30, 2016, based on the evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, and in light of the reasons described below, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed with the Commission pursuant to the Exchange Act, is recorded properly, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Commission and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

 

Management has identified the following control deficiencies that represent material weaknesses as of September 30, 2016:

 

i)          Lack of segregation of duties. At this time, our resources and size prevent us from being able to employ sufficient resources to enable us to have adequate segregation of duties within our internal control system. Management will periodically reevaluate this situation.

 

ii)         Lack of an independent audit committee. Although the Board of Directors serves as an audit committee, it is not comprised solely of independent directors. We may establish an audit committee comprised solely of independent directors when we have sufficient capital resources and working capital to attract qualified independent directors and to maintain such a committee.

 

21 

 

 

iii)        Insufficient number of independent directors. At the present time, our Board of Directors does not consist of a majority of independent directors, a factor that is counter to corporate governance practices as set forth by the rules of various stock exchanges.

 

Due to a lack of financial resources, we are not able to, and do not intend to, immediately take any action to remediate these material weaknesses. We will not be able to do so until we acquire sufficient financing to do so. We will implement further controls as circumstances, cash flow, and working capital permit. Notwithstanding the assessment that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective and that there were material weaknesses as identified in this report, we believe that our financial statements fairly present our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods covered thereby in all material respects.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended September 30, 2016, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses. 

 

22 

 

 

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

 

Although we may, from time to time, be involved in litigation and claims arising out of our operations in the normal course of business, we are not currently a party to any material legal proceeding. In addition, we are not aware of any material legal or governmental proceedings against us, or contemplated to be brought against us.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1/A, filed with the Commission on April 20, 2016, other than as disclosed below, and investors are encouraged to review such risk factors below and in the Form S-1/A, prior to making an investment in the Company.

 

We have various outstanding convertible notes which are convertible into shares of our common stock at a discount to market.

 

As described above under “Note 3 – Convertible Notes” to the financial statements included herein, we currently have various outstanding convertible promissory notes. The conversion prices of the convertible notes provide for conversion of amounts owed at a 50% discount to the market value of our common stock. As a result, any conversion of the convertible notes and sale of shares of common stock issuable in connection with the conversion thereof will likely cause the value of our common stock, if any, to decline in value, as described in greater detail under the Risk Factors below.

 

The issuance and sale of common stock upon conversion of the convertible notes may depress the market price of our common stock.

 

If sequential conversions of the convertible notes and sales of such converted shares take place, the price of our common stock may decline, and as a result, the holders of the convertible notes will be entitled to receive an increasing number of shares in connection with conversions, which shares could then be sold in the market, triggering further price declines and conversions for even larger numbers of shares, to the detriment of our investors. The shares of common stock which the convertible notes are convertible into may be sold without restriction pursuant to Rule 144. As a result, the sale of these shares may adversely affect the market price, if any, of our common stock.

 

In addition, the common stock issuable upon conversion of the convertible notes may represent overhang that may also adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Overhang occurs when there is a greater supply of a company’s stock in the market than there is demand for that stock. When this happens the price of the company’s stock will decrease, and any additional shares which shareholders attempt to sell in the market will only further decrease the share price. The convertible notes will be convertible into shares of our common stock at a discount to market as described above, and such discount to market provides the holders with the ability to sell their common stock at or below market and still make a profit. In the event of such overhang, the note holders will have an incentive to sell their common stock as quickly as possible. If the share volume of our common stock cannot absorb the discounted shares, then the value of our common stock will likely decrease.    

 

The issuance of common stock upon conversion of the convertible notes will cause immediate and substantial dilution.

 

The issuance of common stock upon conversion of the convertible notes will result in immediate and substantial dilution to the interests of other stockholders since the holders of the convertible notes may ultimately receive and sell the full amount of shares issuable in connection with the conversion of such convertible notes. Although certain of the convertible notes may not be converted if such conversion would cause the holders thereof to own more than 4.99% of our outstanding common stock, this restriction does not prevent the holders of the convertible notes subject to such restrictions from converting some of their holdings, selling those shares, and then converting the rest of its holdings, while still staying below the 4.99% limit. In this way, the holders of the convertible notes could sell more than any applicable ownership limit while never actually holding more shares than the applicable limits allow. If the holders of the convertible notes choose to do this, it will cause substantial dilution to the then holders of our common stock. Notwithstanding the above, we plan to repay the convertible notes in full before any conversions take place.

 

23 

 

 

The continuously adjustable conversion price feature of the convertible notes could require us to issue a substantially greater number of shares, which may adversely affect the market price of our common stock and cause dilution to our existing stockholders.

 

Our existing stockholders will experience substantial dilution of their investment upon any conversion of the convertible notes. The convertible notes are convertible into shares of common stock at a conversion price equal to a discount to the market value of our common stock as described above. As a result, the number of shares issuable could prove to be significantly greater in the event of a decrease in the trading price of our common stock, which decrease would cause substantial dilution to our existing stockholders. As sequential conversions and sales take place, the price of our common stock may decline, and if so, the holders of the convertible notes would be entitled to receive an increasing number of shares, which could then be sold, triggering further price declines and conversions for even larger numbers of shares, which would cause additional dilution to our existing stockholders and would likely cause the value of our common stock to decline.

 

The continuously adjustable conversion price feature of our convertible notes may encourage the holders of the convertible notes to sell short our common stock, which could have a depressive effect on the price of our common stock.

 

The convertible notes are convertible into shares of our common stock at a discount to the market value of our common stock. The significant downward pressure on the price of our common stock as the holders of the convertible notes convert and sell material amounts of our common stock could encourage investors to short sell our common stock. This could place further downward pressure on the price of our common stock. In addition, not only the sale of shares issued upon conversion of the convertible notes, but also the mere perception that these sales could occur, may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

 

We have established preferred stock which can be designated by the Board of Directors without shareholder approval and have established Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock, which give the holders thereof voting (Series A and B), liquidation rights (Series B) and the ability to convert such shares into our common stock (Series B).

 

We have 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock authorized, which includes 1,000 shares of designated Series A Preferred Stock of which 1,000 shares are issued and outstanding as of the date of this filing and 200,000 designated shares of Series B Preferred Stock, of which 65,000 are outstanding as of the date of this filing. The Series A Preferred Stock provide the holder thereof the power to vote on all shareholder matters (including, but not limited to at every meeting of the stockholders of the Company and upon any action taken by stockholders of the Company with or without a meeting) equal to fifty-one percent (51%) of the total vote. The Series B Preferred Stock have an original issue price and liquidation preference (pro rata with the common stock) of $10.00 per share. The Series B Preferred Stock provides the holders thereof the right to convert such shares of Series B Preferred Stock into common stock on a 100-for-one basis, provided that no conversion can result in the conversion of more than that number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock, if any, such that, upon such conversion, the aggregate beneficial ownership of the Company’s common stock of any such holder and all persons affiliated with any such holder as described in Rule 13d-3 is more than 4.99% of the Company’s common stock then outstanding. As a result, if we were to dissolve, liquidate or sell our assets, the holders of our Series B Preferred Stock would have the right to receive pro rata with our common stock holders of $650,000 in proceeds from any such transaction, after the payment of amounts owed to certain other of our creditors. The payment of the liquidation preferences could result in common stock shareholders receiving less consideration if we were to liquidate, dissolve or wind up, either voluntarily or involuntarily. Additionally, the existence of the liquidation preference may reduce the value of our common stock, make it harder for us to sell shares of common stock in offerings in the future, or prevent or delay a change of control. Furthermore, the conversion of Series B Preferred Stock may cause substantial dilution to our common shareholders. Additionally, while the Series A Preferred Stock are outstanding, the holders of our common stock will have little to no say in corporate matters, and subject to applicable law, the holders of our Series A Preferred Stock will exercise significant control in determining the appointment of directors and subsequently, the outcome of corporate transactions or other matters concerning the Company, including the appointment of officers. The interests of the holder of the Series A Preferred Stock, currently Mr. Powell, our CEO, may differ from the interests of the Company and the Company’s other stockholders. The voting rights provided to Mr. Powell pursuant to the Series A Preferred Stock may be viewed negatively by investors and the marketplace and may cause the value of our shares to decline in value and/or be worth less than similarly situated companies which do not have similar voting arrangements in place. Because our Board of Directors is entitled to designate the powers and preferences of the preferred stock without a vote of our shareholders, our shareholders will have no control over what designations and preferences our future preferred stock, if any, will have.

The issuance of common stock upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock will cause immediate and substantial dilution to existing shareholders.

 

The Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at the holder’s option on a 100-for-one basis. The issuance of common stock upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock will result in immediate and substantial dilution to the interests of other stockholders since the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock may ultimately receive and sell the full amount of shares issuable in connection with the conversion of such Series B Preferred Stock. Although the Series B Preferred Stock may not be converted by holder if such conversion would cause the holder to own more than 4.99% of our outstanding common stock, this restriction does not prevent such holder from converting some of his holdings, selling those shares, and then converting the rest of his holdings, while still staying below the 4.99% limit. In this way, the holder of the Series B Preferred Stock could sell more than this limit while never actually holding more shares than this limit allows. If the holder of the Series B Preferred Stock chooses to do this, it will cause substantial dilution to the then holders of our common stock.

 

The issuance and sale of common stock upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock may depress the market price of our common stock.

 

If conversions of the Series B Preferred Stock and sales of such converted shares take place, the price of our common stock may decline. In addition, the common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Stock may represent overhang that may also adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Overhang occurs when there is a greater supply of a company’s stock in the market than there is demand for that stock. When this happens the price of the company’s stock will decrease, and any additional shares which shareholders attempt to sell in the market will only further decrease the share price. If the share volume of our common stock cannot absorb converted shares sold by the Series B Preferred Stock holder, then the value of our common stock will likely decrease.

 

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

 

On September 23, 2016, we sold a $63,825 Convertible Promissory Note to Carebourn as described above under “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” – “Recent Transactions”.

 

We claim an exemption from registration for the issuance pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act, since the foregoing issuance did not involve a public offering, the recipient was an (a) “accredited investor”; and/or (b) had access to similar documentation and information as would be required in a Registration Statement under the Securities Act, the recipient acquired the securities for investment only and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof. The securities were offered without any general solicitation by us or our representatives. No underwriters or agents were involved in the foregoing issuance and we paid no underwriting discounts or commissions. The securities sold are subject to transfer restrictions, and the certificates evidencing the securities contain an appropriate legend stating that such securities have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold absent registration or pursuant to an exemption therefrom. The securities were not registered under the Securities Act and such securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act.

Item 5. Other Information

 

On May 25, 2016, we entered into a Compromise and Settlement Agreement with JPM Capital Advisors, LLC (“JPM”), pursuant to which JPM agreed to accept $60,000 in full payment of a $275,000 outstanding promissory note originally issued on May 1, 2014, and accrued and unpaid interest thereon in the amount of $60,000, representing service fees due for various services provided by JPM.

 

On September 23, 2016, we sold Carebourn a Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $63,825, representing $50,000 borrowed from Carebourn and an original issue discount of $13,825 (the “Carebourn Convertible Note”), pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated September 23, 2016. The Carebourn Convertible Note bears interest at the rate of 12% per annum (22% upon an event of default) and is due and payable on September 23, 2017.  

 

The principal amount of the Carebourn Convertible Note and all accrued interest is convertible at the option of the holder thereof into our common stock at any time following the 180th day after the Carebourn Convertible Note was issued. The conversion price of the Carebourn Convertible Note is equal to 50% of the average of the lowest three trading prices of our common stock for the 20 trading days prior to the conversion date. At no time could the Carebourn Convertible Note be converted into shares of our common stock if such conversion would have resulted in Carebourn and its affiliates owning an aggregate of in excess of 4.99% of the then outstanding shares of our common stock, subject to the waiver of such limitation by Carebourn with at least 61 days prior written notice.

 

The Carebourn Convertible Note provides for customary events of default and contains customary positive and negative covenants. Additionally, upon the occurrence of certain fundamental defaults, as described in the Carebourn Convertible Note, we are required to pay Carebourn liquidated damages in addition to the amount owed under the Carebourn Convertible Note.  

 

We had the right to prepay in full the unpaid principal and interest on the Carebourn Convertible Note, upon notice, any time prior to the 364th day after the issuance date of the note, subject to payment of a prepayment amount ranging from 130% to 150% of the then outstanding balance on the Carebourn Convertible Note (inclusive of accrued and unpaid interest and any default amounts then owing), depending on when such prepayment is made.  

 

We paid $5,000 in fees to a related party of Carebourn’s and $500 in attorney’s fees in connection with the sale of the Carebourn Convertible Note.

 

In the event that the Carebourn Convertible Note is not repaid in cash in its entirety, Company shareholders may suffer dilution if and to the extent that the balance of the Carebourn Convertible Note is converted into common stock.
