NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

 

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATIONAL AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

A. ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS

 

Cyclone Power Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”, “our,” “Cyclone”) is the successor entity to the business of Cyclone Technologies LLLP (the “LLLP”), a limited liability limited partnership formed in Florida in September 2004. The LLLP was the original developer and intellectual property holder of the Cyclone engine technology. Initiated in 2017, the Company’s current business model, is to be primarily a research and development engineering company whose main purpose is to develop, commercialize, market and license its Cyclone engine technology. Engines and related systems will be outsourced for manufacturing, but the company will invoice customers. Our prior business model also included engine manufacturing.

 

In 2012, the Company established Cyclone Performance LLC (“Cyclone Performance”) f/k/a Cyclone-TeamSteam USA, LLC. The purpose of Cyclone Performance is to build, test and run various vehicles and vessels utilizing the Company’s engine. As of June 30, 2018, the company had a 95% controlling interest in Cyclone Performance. Effective July 24, 2018, the company sold 76% of its equity for $15,000, and retains a 19% interest.

 

In May 2018, the Company established a wholly owned subsidiary, Emerging Power Solutions Inc., whose purpose is to provide alternative power solutions for various industries based on the application of the Cyclone Engine. As of June 30, 2018 there was no activity in this company.

 

In 2010, the Company established a subsidiary WHE Generation Corp. f/k/a, Cyclone-WHE LLC (the “WHE Subsidiary”, “WheGen”), to market the waste heat recovery systems for all Cyclone engine models. As of September 30, 2014 the Company had sold most of its ownership and the balance was sold in the second quarter of 2016.

 

B. PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the accounts of our 95% owned subsidiary Cyclone Performance LLC and 100% of Emerging Power Solutions Inc. All material inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in the condensed consolidated financial statements

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to interim financial information and the requirements of Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the SEC. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete consolidated financial statements. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal journal entries considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods have been included. Complete financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2017, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as part of the Company’s Form 10-K.

 

The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2018.

 

The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in conformity with account principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The accounting principles utilized by the Company require the Company to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, the reported amounts of revenues and expenses, cash flows and the related footnote disclosures during the periods. On an on-going basis, the Company reviews and evaluates its estimates and assumptions, including, but not limited to, those that relate to the realizable value of inventory, identifiable intangible assets and other long-lived assets, contracts, income taxes, derivative liabilities, and contingencies. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

 

The financial statements presented for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 are unaudited.

 

5
 

 

C. CASH

 

The Company considers all highly-liquid, temporary cash investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At June 30, 2018, and December 31, 2017 the Company had no cash equivalents.

 

D. COMPUTATION OF LOSS PER SHARE

 

Diluted loss per share is not presented as the conversion of the preferred stock and exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants would have an anti-dilutive effect. As of June 30, 2018 and 2017, total anti-dilutive shares related to the common stock options plan amounted to approximately 14.3 million and 14.9 million shares, respectively. On a pro-forma basis if the convertible debt and related interest and penalties were converted at respective conversion rates and applied discounts at the quarter end common stock price, for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, approximately an additional 14.5 billion and 2.5 billion shares would be issuable, respectively.

 

E. INCOME TAXES

 

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method as stipulated by Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740, “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities or a change in tax rate is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are reduced to estimated amounts to be realized using a valuation allowance. A valuation allowance is applied when in management’s view it is more likely than not (50%) that such deferred tax will not be utilized.

 

In the unlikely event that an uncertain tax position exists in which the Company could incur income taxes, the Company would evaluate whether there is a probability that the uncertain tax position taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities. Reserves for uncertain tax positions would be recorded if the Company determined it is probable that a position would not be sustained upon examination or if payment would have to be made to a taxing authority and the amount is reasonably estimated. As of December 31, 2017, the Company does not believe it has any uncertain tax positions that would result in the Company having a liability to the taxing authorities. Interest related to the unrecognized tax benefits is not recognized in the consolidated financial statements as a component of income taxes. The Company’s tax returns are subject to examination by the federal and state tax authorities for the years ended 2015 through 2017.

 

F. REVENUE RECOGNITION

 

In May 2014, ASC 606 was issued related to revenue from contracts with customers. Under this guidance, revenue is recognized when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received for those goods or services. The standard became effective for the Company’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2018. The adoption of ASC 606 did not have an impact on our financial position or results of operations, as the Company does not have any revenue.

 

G. WARRANTY PROVISIONS

 

Current contracts do not require warranty assistance subsequent to acceptance of the “deliverable R&D prototype” by the customer. For products that the Company will sell in the future, warranty costs are anticipated to be borne by the manufacturing vendor.

 

6
 

 

H. INVENTORY

 

Inventory is recorded at the lower of cost or market. Based on our revised R&D company business model, commencing in 2016, costs include only material to develop a completed engine for sale. In our former business model costs include material, labor and allocated overhead to manufacture a completed engine. These costs are periodically evaluated to determine if they have a net realizable value. If the net realizable value is lower than the carrying amount, a reserve is provided. All inventory was fully reserved at December 31, 2017.

 

I. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” requires disclosures of information about the fair value of certain financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate the value. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and loans payable approximate their fair market value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own assumptions based on the best information available in the circumstances. The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are defined as follows:

 

Level 1 Inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.
     
Level 2 Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, as of the reporting date.
     
Level 3 Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability that reflect management’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability as of the reporting date.

 

The summary of the quarterly fair values and changing values of financial instruments as of January 1, 2018 through June 30, 2018 is as follows:

 

   Derivative Liabilities 
Balance, January 1, 2018  $1,424,001 
Additions   - 
Conversions   (267,969)
Deletions   - 
Fair Value Adjustment –loss   892,968 
Balance, June 30, 2018  $2,049,000 

 

Please refer to Note 16 for disclosure and assumptions used to calculate the fair value of the derivative liabilities.

 

J. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

 

Research and development activities for product development are expensed as incurred. Costs for the six and three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 were $166,489, $96,918, $84,546 and $56,242, respectively

 

K. STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

 

The Company applies the fair value method of ASC 718, “Share Based Payment”, in accounting for its stock-based compensation. This standard states that compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. The Company values stock based compensation at the market price for the Company’s common stock as of the date in which the obligation for payment of services is incurred.

 

7
 

 

L. COMMON STOCK OPTIONS AND PURCHASE WARRANTS

 

The Company accounts for common stock options and purchase warrants at fair value in accordance with ASC 815-40, “Derivatives and Hedging”. The Black-Scholes option pricing valuation method (“BSM option pricing model”) is used to determine fair value of these warrants consistent with ASC 718, “Share Based Payment”. Use of this method requires that the Company make assumptions regarding stock volatility, dividend yields, expected term of the warrants and risk-free interest rates.

 

The Company accounts for transactions in which services are received from non-employees in exchange for equity instruments based on the fair value of the equity instruments exchanged, in accordance with ASC 505-50, “Equity Based payments to Non-employees”.

 

M. ORIGINAL ISSUE DEBT DISCOUNT

 

The original issue discount (OID) related to notes payable is amortized by the effective interest method over the repayment period of the notes. The unamortized OID is represented as a reduction of the amount of the notes payable.

 

N. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

 

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method, based on the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

 

   Years
Display equipment for trade shows  3
Leasehold improvements and furniture and fixtures  10 – 15
Shop equipment  7
Computers  3

 

Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred.

 

O. IMPAIRMENT OF LONG LIVED ASSETS

 

Intangible assets, consisting primarily of patents, are deemed to be critical for the furtherance of our business objectives and our engine products. There have been no impairments of our intangible assets, as we are developing our products and obtaining new contracts based on the engine and associated technology patents.

 

The Company continually evaluates the carrying value of intangible assets and other long-lived assets to determine whether there are any impairment losses. If indicators of impairment are present and future cash flows are not expected to be sufficient to recover the assets’ carrying amount, an impairment loss would be charged to expense in the period identified.

 

P. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued amended accounting guidance that changes the accounting for leases and requires expanded disclosures about leasing activities. Under the new guidance, lessees will be required to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability, measured on a discounted basis, at the commencement date for all leases with terms greater than twelve months. Lessor accounting will remain largely unchanged, other than certain targeted improvements intended to align lessor accounting with the lessee accounting model and with the updated revenue recognition guidance issued in 2014. Lessees and lessors must apply a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The amended guidance is effective for annual reporting periods (including interim periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2018, and early application is permitted. The Company’s adoption of this guidance did not result in a material adjustment to the financial statements.

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by us as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, we believe that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations upon required dates of adoption.

 

Q. CONCENTRATION OF RISK

 

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet concentrations of credit risk. The Company expects cash and accounts receivable to be the two assets most likely to subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk. The Company’s policy is to maintain its cash with high credit quality financial institutions to limit its risk of loss exposure.

 

As of June 30, 2018, the Company maintained its cash in one quality financial institution. The Company has not experienced any losses in its bank accounts through June 30, 2018. The company had no accounts receivable at June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

 

R. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

Accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and for hedging activities were codified by ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC Topic 815”). It requires that all derivatives be recognized in the balance sheet and measured at fair value. Gains or losses resulting from changes in the fair value of derivatives are recognized in earnings or recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) depending on the purpose of the derivatives and whether they qualify and have been designated for hedge accounting treatment. The Company has derivative liabilities pursuant to convertible debt and common stock warrants and has recognized net expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company does not have any derivative instruments for which it has applied hedge accounting treatment.

 

NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN

 

As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company sustained substantial operating and other losses and expenses of approximately $1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and $2.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2017. The cumulative deficit since inception is approximately $64.4 million. The Company has a working capital deficit at June 30, 2018 of approximately $5.8 million. There is no guarantee whether the Company will be able to generate enough revenue and/or raise capital to support its operations. This raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on management’s plans which include implementation of its business model to generate revenue from development contracts, licenses and product sales, and continuing to raise funds through debt or equity raises. The Company will also likely continue to rely upon related-party debt or equity financing.

 

The consolidated condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties. The Company is currently raising working capital to fund its operations via stock subscriptions, debt, advance contract payments (contract liability) and advances from and deferred payments to related parties.

 

NOTE 3 – INVENTORY, NET

 

Initiated in 2016, based on our revised R&D company business model, inventory principally consists of raw material to develop an engine.

NOTE 10 – STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS

 

A. COMMON STOCK OPTIONS

 

Per the employment contracts with certain officers, for the six months ended June 30, 2018, the company issued 900,000 common stock options, valued at $180 (pursuant to the Black Scholes valuation model) that are exercisable into shares of common stock at an average exercise price of $.0002 and with a maturity life of 10 years. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, the amortization of stock options was $350, and the unamortized balance was $272. As of June 30, 2018, the intrinsic value on all options was zero.

 

A summary of the common stock options for the period from December 31, 2017 through June 30, 2018 follows:

 

   Number

The fair value of new stock options, re-priced stock options, new purchase warrants and re-priced purchase warrants granted using the Black-Scholes option pricing model was calculated using the following assumptions:

 

    Six Months
Ended
June 30, 2018
    Six Months
Ended
June 30, 2017
 
Risk free interest rate     2.39-2.63 %     1.5-1.5 %
Expected volatility     130-132 %     122-134 %
Expected term     3       3  
Expected dividend yield     0 %     0 %
Average value per options and warrants   $ .0002     $ 0009-.0015  

 

Expected volatility is based on historical volatility of the Company’s common stock price. Short Term U.S. Treasury rates were utilized at the risk-free interest rate. The expected term of the options and warrants was calculated using the alternative simplified method newly codified as ASC 718 “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation,” which defined the expected life as the average of the contractual term of the options and warrants and the weighted average vesting period for all issuances.

B. COMMON STOCK WARRANTS

 

As of June 30, 2018, and December 31, 2017, there were no common stock warrants outstanding.

 

NOTE 11 – INCOME TAXES

 

In December 2017, a new tax known as Tax Cut and Jobs Act of 2017 was enacted. The new tax law includes significant changes to the U.S. corporate tax systems including a rate reduction from 35% to 21% beginning in January of 2018, a change in the treatment of foreign earnings going forward, a deemed repatriation transition tax, and changes to allow net operating losses to be carried forward indefinitely. In addition, net operating losses arising after December 31, 2017 will be limited to the lesser of the available net operating loss or 80% of the pre-net operating loss taxable income. In accordance with ASC 740, the impact of a change in tax law is recorded in the period of enactment.

 

A reconciliation of the differences between the effective income tax rates and the statutory federal tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 are as follows:

 

    Six Months
ended
June 30, 2018
          Six Months
ended
June 30, 2017
       
Tax benefit at U.S. statutory rate   $ 77,848       21 %   $ 247,704       34 %
State taxes, net of federal benefit     14,828       4       29,142       4  
Change in valuation allowance     (92,676 )     (25 )     (276,846 )     (38 )
    $ -       -     $ -          

 

The tax effect of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of the deferred tax assets and liabilities at March 31 2018 and December 31, 2017 consisted of the following:

 

Deferred Tax Assets   June 30, 2018     December 31, 2017  
Net Operating Loss Carry-forward   $ 11,165,972     $ 10,951,258  
Deferred Tax Liabilities – Accrued Officers’ Salaries     (1,052,119 )     (987,056 )
Net Deferred Tax Assets     10,113,853       9,964,202  
Valuation Allowance     (10,113,853 )     (9,964,202 )
Total Net Deferred Tax Assets   $ -     $ -  

 

As of June 30, 2018, the Company had a net operating loss carry forward for income tax reporting purposes of approximately $17.5 million that may be offset against future taxable income through 2031. Current tax laws limit the amount of loss available to be offset against future taxable income when a substantial change in ownership occurs. Therefore, the amount available to offset future taxable income may be limited. No tax asset has been reported in the financial statements because the Company believes there is a 50% or greater chance the carry forwards will expire unused. Accordingly, the potential tax benefits of the loss carry forwards are offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.

In the last quarter of 2012, the Company sold a 5% equity investment to an unrelated investor for $30,000. Subsequent to December 31, 2012, this 5% equity investment was acquired by a corporate officer of the Company. Losses of the subsidiary are currently fully borne by the Company, as there is no guarantee of future profits or positive cash flow of the subsidiary. As of June 30, 2018, the cumulative unallocated losses to the non-controlling interests of this subsidiary are approximately $1,000 and are to be recovered by the parent from future subsidiary profits if they materialize.

As of June 30, 2018, 3 other customers have $56,950 of advances as deposits on contracts for engines to be delivered.

 

NOTE 16 – DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

The Company had entered into convertible note agreements (subject to derivative accounting treatment). The conversion prices into common stock ranged from a discount of 30% to 45% of the lowest closing prices in the 10 to 20 trading days prior to the conversion. Under provisions of ASC Topic 815-40, this conversion feature triggered derivative accounting treatment because the convertible note was convertible into an indeterminable number of shares of common stock. The fair value of the embedded conversion option was required to be presented as a derivative liability and adjusted to fair value at each reporting date, with changes in fair value reported in the condensed consolidated statements of operation. As of June 30, 2018, the Company has outstanding stock options and convertible debt that upon exercise could exceed the number of shares authorized.

 

In the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company recorded a non-cash charge of approximately $0.9 million of derivative losses related to adjusting the derivative liability to fair value. At June 30, 2018, the derivative related fair value of debt and related convertible liabilities was approximately $2.0 million. The company also amortized to interest expense $30,764 of derivative debt discount.

 

The Company calculates the estimated fair values of the liabilities for derivative instruments at each quarter-end using the Stochastic Process Forecasting models (Monte Carlo simulations). The volatility was based on historical volatility, the expected term is equal to the remaining term of the debt and the risk-free rate is based upon rates for treasury securities with the same term.

 

Volatility expected term and risk-free interest rates that had been used to estimate the fair value of derivative liabilities are indicated in the table below.

Cash Flow Management Plan

 

As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company sustained substantial operating losses and other expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2018 of approximately $1.4 million. Cumulative operating and other losses since inception are approximately $64.4 million. The Company has a working capital deficit at June 30, 2018 of approximately $5.8 million. There is no guarantee whether the Company will be able to support its operations on a long-term basis. This raises doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If additional funds cannot be raised or otherwise generated, the Company may be forced to reduce staff, minimize its research and development activities, or in a worst-case scenario, shut-down operations.

 

We are engaged in the research and development of all-fuel, eco-friendly engine technologies. Several prototypes of these engines are current beta tested, pre-production tested or nearing completion with 2 models currently in limited production. While we started to generate revenue from its operations as early as 2008, it has not had material or consistent revenue in each of the last two fiscal years. For us to maintain and expand our operations through the next 12 months, we will seek the completion of our manufactured products by our two manufacturers of the engines and the integration of the engines into a generator package to be sold to distributors. We will also continue license agreements and development agreements that provide up-front or progress payment funds to us. We are receiving monthly payments from our investor and anticipate for that to continue as they proceed with their due diligence.

 

Our goals for the remainder of 2018 and 2019 are to sell the Mark 1 and Mark 3 engine (with the TAW generator) to commercial customers and distributors. We are developing the Mark 5 engine for incorporation into solar power systems that will be sold via our investment partner.

 

Funding in 2018 to complete various Company projects has been negotiated with an investor that wants to integrate Cyclone technology with its Solar products. Final testing of the Mark 10 1500 horse power unit is projected by year end. The new Thermal Storage unit for the 1-Megawatt Microgrid market and the Cyclone solar trough is expected to be manufactured early next year by our teaming partner. It is currently under Beta testing.

 

Through the first half of 2018, an investor provided $249,500 for additional development of the Cyclone Engines as part of a binding letter of intent for $5 million. The consideration is to be the issuance of Preferred A shares, convertible into effectively undiluted 20% of the Common shares of the Company at the completion of funding. The funds are to be paid over a 2-year period upon reaching various milestones.

 

20
 

 

Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016. Management is optimistic, however, that revenue can be generated shortly, and that funding has been secured in 2018 through 2020 to maintain operations and development at the current and at an accelerated pace.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, that would have been established for facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements (as that term is defined in Item 303(a)(4)(ii) of Regulation S-K) or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. As such, we are not exposed to any financing, liquidity, market or credit risk that could arise if we had engaged in those types of relationships.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

 

Not required for smaller reporting companies.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We carried out an evaluation as required by paragraph (b) of Rule 13a-15 and 15d-15 of the Exchange Act, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our President (Chief Executive Officer) and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our financial disclosures, controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

 

A material weakness can be defined as an insufficiency of internal controls that may result in a more than remote likelihood that a material misstatement will not be prevented, detected or corrected in a company’s financial statements.

 

Based upon that evaluation, our President (Chief Executive Officer) and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, based on the following deficiencies:

 

  Weaknesses in Accounting and Finance Personnel: We have a small accounting staff and we do not have the robust employee resources and expertise needed to meet complex and intricate GAAP and SEC reporting requirements of a U.S. public company. Additionally, numerous adjustments and proposed adjustments have been noted by our auditors. This is deemed by management to be a material weakness in preparing financial statements.
     
  We have written accounting policies and control procedures, but we do not have sufficient staff to implement the related controls. Management had determined that this lack of the implantation of segregation of duties, as required by our written procedures, represents a material weakness in our internal controls.
     
 

Internal control has as its core a basic tenant of segregation of duties. Due to our limited size and economic constraints, we are not able to segregate for control purposes various asset control and recording duties and functions to different employees. This lack of segregation of duties had been evaluated by management and has been deemed to be a material control deficiency.

 

We have determined that the above internal control weaknesses and deficiencies could result in a reasonable possibility for financial statements that material misstatements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by our internal controls.

 

21
 

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

 

Management is currently evaluating what steps can be taken to address these material weaknesses. As a growing small business, we continuously devote resources to the improvement of our internal control over financial reporting. Due to budget constraints, the staffing size, proficiency and specific expertise in the accounting department is below requirements for the operation. We are anticipating correcting deficiencies as funds become available.

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and the preparation of our financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Our internal control over financial reporting is being designed to include policies and procedures that are intended to:

 

(i) maintain records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

 

(ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with the authorization of our management and directors; and

 

(iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.

 

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. In making these assessments, our management applied the integrated framework and criteria which has been developed and set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) (Revised 2013). This assessment included an evaluation of the design and procedures of our control over financial reporting. Based on this evaluation, our management concluded that as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 our internal control over financial reporting was not effective due to certain material weaknesses. These identified material weaknesses included (i) an insufficient accounting staff; (ii) limited checks and balances in processing cash and other transactions; and (iii) lack of sufficient active independent directors and an independent audit committee.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate

 

We are committed to improving our financial and oversight organization and procedures. During the remainder of 2018 and into 2019, we intend to adopt new accounting and disclosure controls and procedures, improve existing procedures to remedy material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting and to add experienced personnel to our accounting staff as our financial ability allows. We also hope to add independent directors to our Board of Directors, and to establish an Audit Committee comprised of independent directors with accounting and /or financial reporting expertise.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting and Procedures.

 

There were no changes in internal control over financial reporting and procedures from the previous quarter.
