NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

 

  

NOTE 1 – NATURE OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Nature of Business

 

Fresh Promise Foods, Inc. (“Fresh Promise” or the “Company”) is a consumer products and marketing company focused on the high-margin, multi-billion-dollar health and wellness food and beverage sectors.

 

On June 27, 2017, Creative Edge Nutrition, a Nevada corporation ("CEN") and Fresh Promise executed an asset purchase agreement whereby the Company purchased the assets and liabilities of CEN's subsidiary, Giddy Up Energy Products, Inc. ("Giddy Up"). As consideration, the Company exchanged 4,630,081,800 shares of its common stock. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company is in the process of spinning out its existing assets and liabilities and assuming Giddy Up's business plan involving nutritional supplements and energy drinks focusing on an active lifestyle.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business for the twelve-month period following the date of these financial statements. On a consolidated basis, the Company has incurred significant operating losses since inception.

 

Because the Company does not expect that existing operational cash flow will be sufficient to fund presently anticipated operations, this raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Therefore, the Company will need to raise additional funds and is currently exploring alternative sources of financing. Historically, the Company has raised capital through the issuance of convertible debt as a measure to finance working capital needs. The Company will be required to continue to do so until such time that its consolidated operations become profitable.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The Company has prepared the accompanying consolidated financial statements in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The Company believes these consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring adjustments) that are necessary for a fair presentation of its consolidated financial position and consolidated results of operations for the periods presented.

 7 

 

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, known or expected trends and various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable given the quality of information available as of the date of these financial statements. The results of these assumptions provide the basis for making estimates about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from these estimates.  

  

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company places its cash with a high credit quality financial institution. The Company’s account at this institution is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company did not have bank balances exceeding the FDIC insurance limit. To reduce its risk associated with the failure of such financial institution, the Company evaluates at least annually the rating of the financial institution in which it holds deposits. 

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company uses the market approach to measure fair value for its financial instruments. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The respective carrying value of certain balance sheet financial instruments approximates its fair value. These financial instruments include cash, related party payables, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and short-term borrowings. Fair values were estimated to approximate carrying values for these financial instruments since they are short term in nature, and they are receivable or payable on demand.

 

Net Income (Loss) per Common Share

 

Net income (loss) per share is calculated in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share. Basic net income (loss) per common share is based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding at March 31, 2020 and 2019. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net loss available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. At March 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had convertible notes outstanding that could be converted into approximately 23,377,136,256 common shares based up the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock at March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Shares which would result from the conversion of the convertible notes were excluded from the calculation of net loss per share for 2020 and 2019 because the effect would be anti-dilutive.  

 

Share-Based Compensation

 

ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all share-based payment transactions in which employee services are acquired. Transactions include incurring liabilities, or issuing or offering to issue shares, options, and other equity instruments such as employee stock ownership plans and stock appreciation rights. Share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized as compensation expense in the financial statements based on their fair values. That expense is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period).

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the provisions of ASC 740-10, Accounting for Income Taxes, which requires, among other things, an asset and liability approach to calculating deferred income taxes. The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities.

 8 

 

 

A valuation allowance is provided to offset any net deferred tax assets for which management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred asset will not be realized.

 

The Company follows the provisions of the ASC 740-10, Accounting for Uncertain Income Tax Positions. When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740-10, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above should be reflected as a liability for uncertain tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. The Company believes its tax positions will be highly certain of being upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for uncertain tax benefits.

 

The Company has adopted ASC 740-10-25, Definition of Settlement, which provides guidance on how an entity should determine whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits and provides that a tax position can be effectively settled upon the completion of an examination by a taxing authority without being legally extinguished. For tax positions considered effectively settled, an entity would recognize the full amount of tax benefit, even if the tax position is not considered more likely than not to be sustained based solely on the basis of its technical merits and the statute of limitations remains open. Management has not filed tax returns for the years ended December 31, 2014 through 2019.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Except for rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under the authority of federal securities laws and a limited number of grandfathered standards, the FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ (“ASC”) is the sole source of authoritative GAAP literature recognized by the FASB and applicable to the Company. Management has reviewed the aforementioned rules and releases and believes any effect will not have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements. 

 

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740), which enhances and simplifies various aspects of the income tax accounting guidance, including requirements such as tax basis step-up in goodwill obtained in a transaction that is not a business combination, ownership changes in investments, and interim-period accounting for enacted changes in tax law. The amendment will be effective for public companies with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020; early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the impact of this amendment on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In February 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-02, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326) and Leases (Topic 842) - Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 119 and Update to SEC Section on Effective Date Related to Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which amends the effective date of the original pronouncement for smaller reporting companies. ASU 2016-13 and its amendments will be effective for the Company for interim and annual periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company believes the adoption will modify the way the Company analyzes financial instruments, but it does not anticipate a material impact on results of operations. The Company is in the process of determining the effects adoption will have on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenues sufficient to cover its operating cost and allow it to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations.

  

The Company incurred a net loss of $17,501 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and a working capital deficit of $5,140,453 at March 31, 2020. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plan to obtain such resources for the Company include, obtaining debt or equity capital from various lenders, institutions and significant stockholders sufficient to meet its minimal operating expenses. However, management cannot provide any assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans.

 

There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain sufficient additional funds when needed or that such funds, if available, will be obtainable on terms satisfactory to the Company. In addition, profitability will ultimately depend upon the level of revenues received from business operations. However, there is no assurance that the Company will attain profitability. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

 

NOTE 3 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

On March 27, 2015, the Company executed a promissory note for $15,000 with its former chief financial officer and chairman Mr. Joseph C. Canouse.

The balance of these notes was $99,500 at March 31, 2020.

 

On January 1, 2018, the Company executed three promissory notes aggregating $693,819 to settle a legal matter. See Note 9 – Commitments and Contingencies.

The Company is accruing interest on these convertible promissory notes at default rates ranging between 12% and 24%.

 

All of the convertible notes were analyzed at the time of their issuance for derivative accounting consideration. In some instances, the Company concluded that a derivative liability existed. The derivative liabilities were measured using the commitment-date stock price. At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company determined that the fair value of these derivative liabilities totaled $2,078,160 and $2,191,745, respectively.

 12 

 

 

The value of the derivative liabilities was determined using the following Black-Scholes methodology:

 

    March 31, 2020    

December 31,

2019

 
             
Expected dividend yield (1)      0.0 %     0.0 %
Risk-free interest rate (2)     0.2 %     1.6 – 2.6 %
Expected volatility (3)     326.9 – 527.0 %     310.1 – 582.9 %
Expected life (in years)     0.5 – 1.0       0.5 – 1.0  

______________

(1) The Company has no history or expectation of paying cash dividends on its common stock.
(2) The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield for a term consistent with the expected life of the promissory notes in effect at the time of issuance.
(3) The volatility of the Company’s common stock is based on trading activity for the previous contractual term ended at each promissory note issuance date.

  

In accordance with ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options the Company records a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”) related to the issuance of convertible debt or preferred stock instruments that have conversion features that are in-the-money when issued. The BCF for the convertible instruments is recognized and measured by allocating a portion of the proceeds equal to the intrinsic value of that feature to additional paid-in capital. The intrinsic value is generally calculated at the commitment date as the difference between the conversion price and the fair value of the common stock or other securities into which the security is convertible, multiplied by the number of shares into which the security is convertible. If certain other securities are issued with the convertible security, the proceeds are allocated among the different components. The portion of the proceeds allocated to the convertible security is divided by the contractual number of the conversion shares to determine the effective conversion price, which is used to measure the BCF. The effective conversion price is used to compute the intrinsic value. The value of the BCF is limited to the basis that is initially allocated to the convertible security.

 

All of the convertible debentures were analyzed at the time of their issuance for a beneficial conversion feature. In some instances, the Company concluded that a beneficial conversion feature existed. The beneficial conversion features were measured using the commitment-date stock price and were determined to aggregate $698,819. This amount is recorded as a debt discount and is amortized as interest expense over the term of the related convertible debentures. The debt discounts were fully amortized as of March 31, 2020. The related amortization expense was $0 and $5,541 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

 

At March 31, 2020, the number of shares of common stock underlying these convertible debentures totaled 23,377,136,256 shares. 

 

NOTE 5 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY (DEFICIT)

 

Series A Preferred Stock

 

The authorized Series A preferred stock of the Company consists of 10,000,000 shares with a par value $0.00001.

The majority of the Series A preferred stock entitles the stockholders to 67% overall voting rights.

 

Series D Preferred Stock

 

In April 2018, the Company designated and issued one (1) share of its preferred stock as “Series D”. The share is convertible into 8.70% of the Company’s then outstanding common stock, but no less than 850,000,000 shares of common stock subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions precedent. The holder is entitled to vote with the Company’s common stockholders, entitled to dividends, and certain liquidation rights. The Company, with the holder’s consent, may redeem the preferred share.

NOTE 6 – INCOME TAXES

  

As of March 31, 2020, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $14.1 million that may be available to reduce its tax liability through tax year 2039. The Company estimates the benefits of this loss carry forward at $3.0 million if it produces sufficient taxable income. No adjustments to the financial statements have been recorded for this potential tax benefit. The Company has no provisions from income tax in 2019, due to current period losses and full valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. 

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, a reconciliation of the federal statutory rate of 21% to the Company’s effective tax rate is as follows:

 

   

Three Months Ended

Net deferred tax asset   $ —       $ —    

  

Tax net operating loss carryforwards may be limited pursuant to the IRS Section 382 in the event of certain ownership changes. 

   

NOTE 7 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

The Company has adopted the guidance under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements, for financial instruments measured on a fair value on a recurring basis. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy, giving the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable data and requires disclosures for assets and liabilities measured at fair value based on their level in the hierarchy. Further authoritative accounting guidance (ASU No. 2009-05, Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value) under ASC 820, provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liabilities is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more of the techniques provided for in this update.

 14 

 

 

The standard describes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of input, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value, which are the following:

 

  Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

 

  Level 2 – Input other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets of liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset or liabilities.

 

  Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. 

 

The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

 

The Company analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. Derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect fair value at each period end, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in results of operations as adjustments to fair value of derivatives. The effects of interactions between embedded derivatives are calculated and accounted for in arriving at the over- all fair value of the financial instruments. In addition, the fair value of free-standing derivative instruments such as warrant and option derivatives are valued using the Black-Scholes modes.

 

The Company uses Level 3 inputs for its valuation methodology for the embedded conversion option liabilities as their fair value were determined by using the Black Scholes option-pricing model based on various assumptions. The Company’s derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect fair value at each period end, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in results of operations as adjustments to fair value of derivatives. 

 

The following table summarizes the change in the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of December 31, 2019:

 

          Fair Value Measurements at Reporting Date Using

Overview

 

Fresh Promise Foods, Inc. (“Fresh Promise” or the “Company”) is a consumer products and marketing company focused on the high-margin, multi-billion-dollar health and wellness food and beverage sectors.

 

On June 27, 2017, Creative Edge Nutrition, a Nevada corporation ("CEN") and Fresh Promise executed an asset purchase agreement whereby the Company purchased the assets and liabilities of CEN's subsidiary, Giddy Up Energy Products, Inc. ("Giddy Up"). As consideration, the Company exchanged 4,630,081,800 shares of its common stock. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company is in the process of spinning out its existing assets and liabilities and assuming Giddy Up's business plan involving nutritional supplements and energy drinks focusing on an active lifestyle.

 

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2020 and 2019

 

Sales

 

We did not record any revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. On June 27, 2017, we acquired Giddy Up and are currently in the process of implementing its business plan involving nutritional supplements and energy drinks focusing on an active lifestyle. While we believe that Giddy Up and other opportunities will generate future revenue for the Company, we can provide no assurance that we will be successful in the execution of our current business plan.

 

Gross Profit

 

Gross profit is calculated by subtracting cost of goods sold from sales. Gross profit percentage is calculated by dividing gross profit by sales.

 

We did not record any cost of goods sold for either of the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. As such, we did not realize any gross profits during either of the three-month periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2019.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Operating expenses totaled $75,674 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $38,542 in operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2019, or an increase of $37,132.

 

Our operating expenses are primarily comprised of compensation and benefits, professional fees and other general and administrative costs. The increase in operating expenses was due to the timing of professional fees incurred in relation to our annual audit. We expect our operating expenses to increase proportionally to our business activities as we begin to execute upon our business plan in future periods.

 17 

 

 

Other Income (Expense)

 

Net other income totaled $58,173 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $2,482,911 in net other expense for the three months ended March 31, 2019, or an improvement of $2,541,084.

  

The Company has issued various convertible notes to help finance its operations, some of which have embedded derivative features. The value of these instruments will fluctuate as the trading price of our common stock changes. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, recorded an unrealized gain of $113,585 from the decrease in value of these derivative features, compared to an unrealized loss of $2,438,651 from the change in the value of these derivative features during the three months ended March 31, 2019.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we recorded interest expense related to the amortization of debt discounts totaling $0, compared to $5,541 during the three months ended March 31, 2019. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we accrued interest expense on convertible notes or $55,412, compared to interest expense of $38,719 during the three months ended March 31, 2019.

 

Net Loss

 

We incurred a net loss of $17,501, or $0.00 per share, for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to a net loss of $2,521,453, or $0.00 per share, for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

 

The weighted average number of basic and fully diluted shares outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was 8,638,186,067, compared to 8,809,999,465 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. There are no dilutive equivalents included in our calculation of fully diluted shares for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, since their inclusion would be anti-dilutive due to our net loss per share.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business.

 

The Company sustained a net loss of $17,501 for the three months ended March 31, 2020. Because of the absence of positive cash flows from operations, the Company requires additional funding to execute upon its business plan. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

We are presently unable to meet our obligations as they come due. At March 31, 2020, we had cash and cash equivalents totaling $69 and a working capital deficit of $5,140,453. Our working capital deficit is primarily due to the balance of our convertible notes payable and related derivative liabilities.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, net cash provided by operating activities was $50, compared to $33,573 of cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, net cash provided by financing activities was $0 compared, to $38,000 of cash provided by financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

 

We anticipate that our cash requirements will arise from the need to fund our growth from operations, pay current obligations and future capital expenditures. The primary sources of funding in the near term for such requirements are expected to be cash generated from raising additional funds by the issuance of convertible notes. However, we can provide no assurances that we will be able to generate sufficient cash flow or obtain additional financing on terms satisfactory to us if at all, to remain a going concern. Our continuation as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet our obligations on a timely basis and ultimately to attain profitability. In addition, our plan for the next twelve months is to raise capital to continue to expand our operations. We are presently engaged in capital raising activities through one or more private offerings of our company’s securities. See “Note 2– Going Concern” in our financial statements for additional information as to the possibility that we may not be able to continue as a “going concern.”

Inflation

 

Although our operations are influenced by general economic conditions, we do not believe that inflation had a material effect on our results of operations during the nine-month period ended March 31, 2020.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We had no off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

 

 Critical Accounting Estimates

 

Our financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We continually evaluate the accounting policies and estimates used to prepare the condensed financial statements. The estimates are based on historical experience and assumptions believed to be reasonable under current facts and circumstances. Actual amounts and results could differ from these estimates made by management. Certain accounting policies that require significant management estimates and are deemed critical to our results of operations or financial position are discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 in the Critical Accounting Policies section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. 

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

Not applicable

  

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the specified time periods and accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.

 

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and our Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act) as of March 31, 2020. In designing and evaluating disclosure controls and procedures, we and our management recognize that any disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objective. As of March 31, 2020, based on the evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, and in light of the material weaknesses found in our internal controls, the CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

 

In light of the conclusion that our internal controls over financial reporting were ineffective as of March 31, 2020, we have applied procedures and processes as necessary to ensure the reliability of our financial reporting in regards to this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, management believes, based on its knowledge, that: (i) this quarterly report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading with respect to the periods covered by this report; and (ii) the financial statements, and other financial information included in this quarterly report, fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows as at, and for, the periods presented in this quarterly report.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the last quarterly period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

 

On April 25, 2013, Richard Maher, et al (collectively, the “Plaintiffs”) filed a complaint with the United States District Court for the District of Nevada (the “Court”) alleging claims including securities fraud and breach of contract against Peter Hellwig, et al (collectively, the “Defendants”). On March 30, 2017, the Court issued an order granting in part motion for default judgment in favor of the Plaintiffs. On January 1, 2018, the Company issued three convertible notes to settle legal damages totaling $693,819 awarded to the Plaintiffs after pursuing all potential remedies against the other Defendants.

 

On April 5, 2018, David G. Wiser filed a lawsuit against the Company for debt acquired in the asset purchase agreement with Creative Edge Nutrition due to the non-convertibility of his debt resulting from the lack of shares available to issue while the Company was delinquent in its filings with the SEC. On April 27, 2018, the lawsuit was settled when the Company issued Mr. Wiser one preferred share convertible into 850,000,000 shares of common stock.
