EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

This Amendment No. 1 to our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ending March 31, 2020 filed June 9, 2020 (the “Original Report”) is being filed to include the information below regarding our reliance the SEC’s conditional exemptive orders issued in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. With the exception of the additional disclosures set forth below, all disclosures contained in the Original Report are unchanged.

 

On May 14, 2020, Global Diversified Marketing Group, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K, accordance with the SEC’s March 25, 2020 Order (Release No. 34-88465) (the “Order”), which allowed for the delay of certain filings required under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which indicated that the filing of this report would be delayed. The Company filed the Original Report well within the time periods prescribed in the Order and in reliance thereon.

 

The preparation of the Company’s Original Report, including financial statements and completion of the review process, was delayed by government-imposed quarantines, office closures and travel restrictions, which affected both the Company’s and its service provider’s personnel. Specifically, the Company is located in Nassau County New York, which even as of today, is only in Phase One of New York State’s reopening plan in response to the spread of Covid–19. With the exception of New York City and neighboring Suffolk County, the balance of New York State is in the much less restrictive Phase Two or Three of New York State’s reopening plan. This has caused our personnel to work remotely delaying the processing of certain of its accounting records and receipts required to complete the review of the Company’s financial statements and as a result we have availed ourselves of the benefit of the Order.

GLOBAL DIVERSIFIED MARKETING GROUP INC.

NOTES TO THE (UNAUDITED) CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MARCH 31, 2020 and 2019

 

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Nature of Business

 

GLOBAL DIVERSIFIED MARKETING GROUP INC. (the “Company”), formerly known as Dense Forest Acquisition Corporation, was incorporated in Delaware on December 1, 2017, and changed its name on June 13, 2018, as part of a change in control. As part of the change in control, its then officers and directors resigned and contributed back to the Company 19,500,000 shares of the 20,000,000 outstanding shares of its common stock, and appointed new officers and directors. On June 14, 2018, the new management of the Company issued 12.500,000 shares of its common stock to Paul Adler, the then president of the Company.

 

On November 26, 2018, the Company effected the acquisition of Global Diversified Holdings, Inc. (“GDHI”), a private New York company owned by the Company’s president, with the issuance of 200 shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange for all of the outstanding shares of GDHI. GDHI became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and its activity for the periods presented are reflected in these unaudited consolidated financial statements along with the expenses of the Company.

 

Prior to the acquisition of GDHI, the Company had no business and no operations. Pursuant to the acquisition, the Company acquired the operations and business plan of GDHI, which imports and sells snack food products. For accounting purposes, GDHI is considered to be the acquirer, and the equity is presented as if the business combination had occurred on January 1, 2017

 

COVID-19

 

On March 11, 2020, the world health organization (“who”) declared the covid-19 outbreak to be a global pandemic. In addition to the devastating effects on human life, the pandemic is having a negative ripple effect on the global economy, leading to disruptions and volatility in the global financial markets. Most US states and many countries have issued policies intended to stop or slow the further spread of the disease.

 

Covid-19 and the U.S’s response to the pandemic are significantly affecting the economy. There are no comparable events that provide guidance as to the effect the Covid-19 pandemic may have, and, as a result, the ultimate effect of the pandemic is highly uncertain and subject to change. We do not yet know the full extent of the effects on the economy, the markets we serve, our business or our operations.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and are presented in US dollars. The Company has adopted a December 31 year-end.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable from customers, accounts payable, and loans payable. The carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximates fair value due either to length of maturity or interest rates that approximate prevailing market rates unless otherwise disclosed in these financial statements.

 

 

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 estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the balance sheet. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

As of March 31, 2020, the Company has not issued any share-based payments to its employees. Under the modified prospective method, the Company uses, stock compensation expense includes compensation expense for all stock-based compensation awards granted, based on the grant-date estimated fair value.

 

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with the original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. On March 31, 2020, and December 31, 2019, the Company had $-0- and $22,291 in cash, respectively.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Accounts receivable are generated from sales of snack food products to retail outlets throughout the United States. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and adjusts credit limits based on customer payment and current creditworthiness, as determined by review of their current credit information. The Company continuously monitors credit limits for its customers and maintains a provision for estimated credit losses based on its historical experience and any specific customer issues that have been identified. An allowance for doubtful; accounts is provided against accounts receivable for amounts management believes may be uncollectible. The Company historically has not had issues collecting on its accounts receivable from its customers. The Company factors certain of its receivables to improve its cash flow.

 

Bad debt expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020, and 2019 was $-0-; the allowance for doubtful accounts on March 31, 2020, and December 31, 2019, was $-0-.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory consists of snack food products and packaging supplies, stated at the lower of cost or market.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets. Maintenance, repairs, and renewals that do not materially add to the value of the equipment nor appreciably prolong its useful life are charged to expense as incurred.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Beginning January 1, 2018, the Company implemented ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Although the new revenue standard is expected to have an immaterial impact, if any, on our ongoing net income, we did implement changes to our processes related to revenue recognition and the control activities within them. These included the development of new policies based on the five-step model provided in the new revenue standard, ongoing contract review requirements, and gathering of information provided for disclosures.

 

 

The Company recognizes revenue from product sales or services rendered when control of the promised goods are transferred to our clients in an amount that reflects the consideration to which we expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. To achieve this core principle we apply the following five steps: identify the contract with the client, identify the performance obligations in the contract, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract and recognize revenues when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

 

Advertising and Marketing Costs

 

The Company’s policy regarding advertising and marketing is to record the expense when incurred. The Company incurred advertising and marketing expenses of $6,682 and $3,424 during the three months ended March 31, 2020, and 2019, respectively.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances are present, the Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the total of the future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of those assets, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.

 

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws. A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized.

 

The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, with the consent of its stockholder, had elected to be taxed as an S Corporation under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Instead of paying federal corporate income taxes, the stockholder(s) of an S Corporation are taxed individually on their proportionate share of the Company’s taxable income. Therefore, prior to the business combination discussed above, the Company had made no provision for income taxes. Effective with the business combination, the wholly-owned subsidiary became a C-corporation, and the loss incurred in 2018 for the period as a C-corporation approximated $270,000. See Note 7. The Company’s income tax returns are open for examination for up to the past three years under the statute of limitations. There are no tax returns currently under examination.

 

Comprehensive Income

 

The Company has which established standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components, and accumulated balances. When applicable, the Company would disclose this information on its Statement of Stockholders’ Equity. Comprehensive income comprises equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. The Company has not had any significant transactions that are required to be reported in other comprehensive income.

 

Basic Income (Loss) Per Share

 

Basic income (loss) per share has been calculated based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.

 

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Adoption of ASC 842 - On January 1, 2019, we adopted FASB Accounting Standards Codification, or ASC, Topic 842, Leases, or ASC 842, which requires the recognition of the right-of-use assets and related operating and finance lease liabilities on the balance sheet. As permitted by ASC 842, we elected the adoption date of January 1, 2019, which is the date of initial application. As a result, the consolidated balance sheet prior to January 1, 2019, was not restated, continues to be reported under ASC Topic 840, Leases, or ASC 840, which did not require the recognition of operating lease liabilities on the balance sheet, and is not comparative. Under ASC 842, all leases are required to be recorded on the balance sheet and are classified as either operating leases or finance leases. The lease classification affects the expense recognition in the income statement. Operating lease charges are recorded entirely in operating expenses. Finance lease charges are split, where amortization of the right-of-use asset is recorded in operating expenses and an implied interest component is recorded in interest expense. The expense recognition for operating leases and finance leases under ASC 842 is substantially consistent with ASC 840. As a result, there is no significant difference in our results of operations presented in our consolidated income statement for each period presented.

 

We adopted ASC 842 using a modified retrospective approach for all leases existing on January 1, 2019. The adoption of ASC 842 had a substantial impact on our balance sheet. The most significant impact was the recognition of the operating lease right-of-use asset and the liability for operating leases. Accordingly, upon adoption, leases that were classified as operating leases under ASC 840 were classified as operating leases under ASC 842, and we recorded an adjustment of $44,602 to operating lease right-of-use assets and the related lease liability. The lease liability is based on the present value of the remaining minimum lease payments, determined under ASC 840, discounted using our secured incremental borrowing rate at the effective date of January 1, 2019, using the original lease term as the tenor. As permitted under ASC 842, we elected several practical expedients that permit us to not reassess (1) whether a contract is or contains a lease, (2) the classification of existing leases, and (3) whether previously capitalized costs continue to qualify as initial indirect costs. The application of the practical expedients did not have a significant impact on the measurement of the operating lease liability.

 

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN

 

As of March 31, 2020, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $-0- and an accumulated deficit of $26,020,400. Additionally, the Company had a working capital deficit of $95,670. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financials have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. If the Company is in fact unable to continue as a going concern, the shareholders may lose some or all of their investment in the Company.

 

NOTE 3 – CAPITAL STOCK

 

The Company has 100,000,000 shares of $.0001 par value common stock authorized. The Company has 13,010,200 and shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of March 31, 2020, and December 31, 2019, respectively.

 

The Company has 20,000,000 shares of $.0001 par value preferred stock authorized. On February 24, 2020, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation for a class of preferred stock designated Class A Super Voting Preferred Stock (“A Stock”). There are 1,000,000 shares of A Stock designated. Each share of such stock shall vote with the common stock and have 100,000 votes. A Stock has no conversion, dividend, or liquidation rights. Accordingly, the holders of A Stock will, by reason of their voting power, be able to control the affairs of the Company. The Company has issued 1,000 shares of A Stock to Paul Adler, the company’s Chief Executive Officer, and majority shareholder giving him effective voting control over the Registrant’s affairs for the foreseeable future.

 

As a result of the issuance of super-voting rights enabling him to vote 100,000,000 shares, Mr. Adler has effective voting control of approximately 99.55% of the Company. In conjunction with the issuance of these 1,000 preferred shares, the Company recorded stock compensation expense, related party of $26,020,400 for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

 

NOTE 4 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, and 2019, the Company incurred wages of $52,500 and $49,500 respectively, related to services provided to it by its executive officer. Additionally, during the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company’s CEO was awarded super-voting A Stock-see Note 3. Capital Stock

On April 17, 2020, the Registrant received a forgivable loan in the amount $28,642 of under the Federal Payroll Protection Program (“PPP”). While the rules under the PPP are complex and continue to evolve and be clarified, generally the PPP loan will be forgiven if, during a certain measuring period that begins with the receipt of the loan, at least 75% of the loan is applied to employee payroll expense with the balance applied to rent and utilities and the recipient employer has employees equal to 90% of the number of employees it had prior to receipt of the loan. Management believes it will be able to make the required certifications at the end of the 8 week period in June 2020 and the PPP Loan will be forgiven. To the extent the PPP Loan is not forgiven, it is converted into a two-year loan with an interest rate of 1% per annum,

 

On May 21, 2020, the Registrant received a loan from the Small Business Administration of $150,000 (the “SBA Loan”). The SBA Loan bears interest at 3.75% per annum and is payable over 30 years with all payments of principal and interest deferred for the first 12 months.

 

 

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

The Company has one wholly-owned subsidiary, Global Diversified Holdings Inc., through which it conducts all its operations.

 

Discussion of the Period Ended March 31, 2020, and the Period Ended March 31, 2019

 

Revenues and Cost of Sales

 

Sales for the three months ended March 31, 2020, were $339,961 compared to $256,035 for the same three-month period ended March 31, 2019, an increase of $83,926, or approximately 32.8%. The increase was primarily due to increased levels of purchasing by large customers and the addition of several new customers, including an increase of Amazon orders in the 2020 period.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2020, we had four customers that represented 93% of our business, compared to 91% for the same four customers during the three months ended March 31, 2019. The loss of these customers could have a material adverse impact on our business.

 

Prior to the onset of COVID-19, we believed we were on track to generate significant revenue increases. Through the period ended March 31, 2020, we have been able to maintain substantially all of our sales volume however, there can be no assurances we will be able to continue doing so going forward due to the uncertainty of COVID-19.

 

Our gross operating margin which is calculated by subtracting the cost of sales from revenue was $168,103 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $70,616 for the same three-month period ended March 31, 2019, an increase of approximately 138%. This increase is attributable to higher sales levels in 2020 and due to an increase in the gross margin as a percentage of sales to 49.4% in the 2020 period compared to 27.6% in the 2019 period. Our gross margin percentage will vary due to the mix of our product sales. As we grow larger, we expect our normalized gross margin percentages to be in the range of 35-40%, although there can be no assurances, because our margins may be impacted by COVID-19.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Operating expenses for the three months ended were $26,159,402 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $103,659 during the three months ended March 31, 2019. The 2020 period includes a one-time non-cash charge of $26,020,400 in stock-based compensation related to the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock with super-voting rights to the Company’s chief executive officer. See Note 3. Capital Stock. Excluding the charge of $26,020,400, operating expenses were $139,002 during the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $96,894 an increase of $42,108. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in legal and professional fees, associated with being a public company of $32,591 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019. During the 2020 period, general and administrative expenses also increased by approximately $10,000 due to an increase in overall company activity. Approximately $3,200 of this increase was in advertising costs.

 

 

Other Expense

 

Other expense was $10,483, comprised entirely of interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to $6,765 during the same period ended March 31, 2019. The increase is attributable to the higher levels of factoring during the 2020 period.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Net cash used in operating activities was $70,973 during the three months ended March 31, 2020, compared to net cash used of $42,721 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The increase in net cash used is attributable to an improvement in net income, net of non-cash stock-based compensation; offset by increased changes in operating assets and liabilities.

 

Net cash provided by operating financing activities increased in the 2020 period from $48,682 to $37,774 during the same period ended March 31, 2020.

 

Currently, the Company’s liquidity is provided by operations and factoring. In the event COVID-19 results in decreased sales and profits, our ability to obtain factoring for our receivables could be negatively impacted which could have a material adverse impact on our liquidity or our ability to remain as a going concern.

 

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements.

 

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on its financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

 

Equipment Financing

 

The Company has no existing equipment financing arrangements.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

Disclosures and Procedures

 

Pursuant to Rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Company carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rules. This evaluation was done as of the end of the period covered by this report.

 

The Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company’s sole officer, its president, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of the end of the period covered by this report under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer (who is also the principal financial officer) based on the criteria established in Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013). Based on this evaluation, management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of the date of review, based on those criteria. A control system can provide only reasonably, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues have been detected.

 

Management is also responsible to maintain records accurately and fairly to reflect transactions and transactions are recorded, as necessary. The controls should provide reasonable assurance regarding the prevention of unauthorized acquisition or use of assets.

 

In the present case of the Company, management maintained sole control of all financial transactions and all assets. Since the president of the Company is in sole control of the financial transactions and assets management believes that its control reasonably and adequately addresses the risk of a misstatement in the financial reporting. Based upon that evaluation, the principal officer believes that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in gathering, analyzing, and disclosing information needed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in its periodic reports is recorded, summarized, and processed timely. The principal executive officer is directly involved in the day-to-day operations of the Company.

 

This Quarterly Report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this Quarterly Report.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that was identified in connection with such evaluation that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
