Company History

Ethema Health Corporation (the “Company” or “Ethema”), a Colorado corporation was incorporated under the laws of the State of Colorado on April 1, 1993, and is the surviving company of a merger, effective February 1, 1995, between the Company and Nova Natural Resources Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Nova Delaware”). The merger was effectuated solely for the purpose of changing the Company’s domicile from Delaware to Colorado. At all times prior to 2001, the Company was engaged in the oil and gas exploration business. Nova Delaware was the successor entity to Nova Petroleum Corporation, a Delaware corporation, and Power Resources Corporation, a Delaware corporation, which merged in 1986 (“the 1986 Merger”). Prior to the 1986 Merger, Nova Petroleum Corporation and Power Resources Corporation had operated since 1979 and 1972, respectively. In 2001, the Company entered into the electronics business and this business was active in 2001 and 2002, as part of the Torita Group. After 2002, the Company continued with various stages of development in this business until 2010.

 

On April 1, 2010, the Company changed its principal operations from development stage electronics to healthcare services. On March 29, 2010, the Company entered into a one year consulting agreement with GreeneStone Clinic Inc., a Canadian corporation (“Greenestone Clinic”), whereby Greenestone Clinic provided consulting services for the Company’s development and operation of medical clinics in the province of Ontario, Canada. Specifically, Greenestone Clinic provided medical and business expertise in the initial startup of private clinics and technical assistance to ensure that the clinics were in compliance with governmental policy and procedure requirements as well as any operational requirements. At the time of entering into this consulting agreement, Greenestone Clinic operated a clinic at the Muskoka property housing its addiction treatment clinic and provided endoscopy services. The Company started offering medical services in June 2010, offering various medical services, including endoscopy, cardiology and executive medicals, which services were subsequently sold.

 

On May 15, 2010, the Company secured a sublease of space (which was previously the Rothbart Pain Clinic) of approximately 8,000 sq. ft. to be used as the Company’s executive offices and to run an endoscopy clinic. The Endoscopy clinic was subsequently sold. The Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary GreeneStone Clinic Muskoka Inc. (“GreeneStone Muskoka”), also entered into a lease with the owner of the Muskoka premises on April 1, 2011 and provided mental health and addiction treatment services and operated an in-patient addiction treatment center at this location.

 

During December 2016, the Company obtained a license to operate and provide addiction treatment healthcare services in Florida, USA. The company commenced operations under this license with effect from January 2017.

 

On February 14, 2017, the Company completed a series of transactions (referred to collectively as the “Restructuring Transactions”), including a Share Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) whereby the Company acquired 100% of the stock of Cranberry Cove Holdings Ltd. (“CCH”), which held the real estate on which the Company’s GreeneStone Muskoka operated, an asset purchase agreement (the “APA”) and lease (the “Lease”) whereby the Company sold certain of the GreeneStone Muskoka business assets and leased the real estate to the buyer, and a real estate purchase agreement and asset purchase agreement whereby the Company purchased the real estate and business assets of Seastone Delray (the “Florida Purchase”).

 

The Share Purchase Agreement

Under the SPA, the Company acquired 100% of the stock of CCH from Leon Developments Ltd. (“Leon Developments”), a company wholly owned by Shawn E. Leon, who is the President, CEO, and CFO of the Company (“Mr. Leon”). CCH owns the real estate on which GreeneStone Muskoka is located. The total consideration paid by the Company was CDN$3,517,062, including the assumption of certain liabilities of CCH, which was funded by the assignment to Leon Developments of certain indebtedness owing to the Company in the amount of CDN$659,918, and the issuance of 60,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to Leon Developments, valued at US$0.0364 per share.

The Asset Purchase Agreement and Lease

Under the APA, the assets of GreeneStone Muskoka were sold by the Company, through its subsidiary, GreeneStone Muskoka, to Canadian Addiction Residential Treatment LP (the “Purchaser”), for a total consideration of CDN$10,000,000. The proceeds of the GreeneStone Muskoka asset sale were used to pay down certain tax debts and operational costs of the Company and to fund the Florida Purchase, mentioned below.

 

Through the APA, substantially all of the assets of GreeneStone Muskoka were sold, leaving Ethema with only the underlying clinic real estate, which the Company, through its newly acquired subsidiary, CCH concurrently leased to the Purchaser. The Lease is a triple net lease and provides for a five (5) year primary term with three (3) five-year renewal options, annual base rent for the first year at CDN$420,000 with annual increases, an option to tenant to purchase the leased premises and certain first refusal rights.

 

The Florida Purchases and Business

 

Immediately after closing on the sale of the assets of the Canadian Rehab Clinic, the Company closed on the acquisition of the business and real estate assets of Seastone Delray pursuant to certain real estate and asset purchase agreements. This business is operated through its wholly owned subsidiary, Addiction Recovery Institute of America, LLC (“ARIA”) (formerly Seastone Delray Healthcare, LLC). The purchase price for the ARIA assets was US$6,070,000 financed with a purchase money mortgage of US$3,000,000, and US$3,070,000 in cash.

 

On April 4, 2017 the Company changed its Corporate name from Greenestone Healthcare Corporation to Ethema Health Corporation.

 

On November 2, 2017, the Company entered into an Agreement to purchase from AREP 5400 East Avenue LLC certain buildings in West Palm Beach, Florida, totaling approximately 80,000 square feet, on which the Company planned to operate a substance abuse treatment center. The purchase price of the Property was $20,530,000. The Company made a series of nonrefundable down payments totaling $2,940,546 in 2017 and 2018. The Company could not get the necessary financing to close on the deal.

 

On May 23, 2018, the Company converted the agreement to purchase AREP 5400 East Avenue LLC. (“the landlord”) into a lease agreement with a purchase option of $17,250,000, increasing August 31, 2018 by $750,000 per month until the purchase option is exercised. The premises is located at 5400, 5402 and 5410 East Avenue, West Palm Beach, Florida (the “Property”). The lease was for an initial 10 years and provided for two additional 10 year extensions.

 

The Company was previously under agreement to purchase the property from the landlord. The property is presently used as a rehabilitation treatment center. The current tenant at the property, Alternatives in Treatment, LLC, a Florida limited liability company, consented to the Lease and concurrent with the execution of the Lease entered into a Sublease Agreement with the Company.

 

In June 2018, the Company moved its operations out of the Delray Beach properties and into the leased property at 5400 East Avenue in West Palm Beach.

 

On August 3, 2018, the Company changed the name of its subsidiary Seastone Delray Healthcare, LLC to Addiction Recovery Institute of America, LLC (“ARIA”).

 

The Company received a license to operate in-patient detoxification and residential treatment services in September 2018.

 

In June of 2019, the Company and the landlord wished to proceed with marketing the property for sale and agreed to convert the long term lease into a month to month lease for a reduced amount of space on the property and Alternatives in Treatment became a direct tenant of the Landlord in the remainder of the space.

 

The Company once again had an opportunity to purchase the property in October of 2019 but could not arrange for sufficient financing to complete the purchase and the Landlord subsequently entered into a conditional agreement with another purchaser.

On December 20, 2019, the Company entered into an agreement with the landlord to terminate the lease agreement on January 31, 2020.

 

The Company has signed a Letter of intent to acquire a new facility at another location nearby which has been delayed by the Corona Virus pandemic and a delay in obtaining the licensing for this facility. The Company has been actively involved in the operation of the treatment center operated by Evernia Health Center LLC (“Evernia”) at 950 Evernia Street, West Palm Beach Florida. The Company is under contract to purchase a majority interest in this company and has been financing the start up operations of this facility.

 Penny Stock

 

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) has adopted rules that regulate broker dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a market price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system. The penny stock rules require a broker dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, that: (a) contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading; (b) contains a description of the broker’s or dealer’s duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation of such duties or other requirements of the securities laws; (c) contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price; (d) contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions; (e) defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and (f) contains such other information and is in such form, including language, type size and format, as the SEC shall require by rule or regulation.

 

The broker dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer with (a) bid and offer quotations for the penny stock; (b) the compensation of the broker dealer and its salesperson in the transaction; (c) the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and (d) a monthly account statement showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account.

 

In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement as to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement.

 

These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity for our common stock. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling our securities.

  

Item 6. Selected Financial Data.

 

Not applicable as we are a smaller reporting company.

 

Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements 

 

Many of the matters discussed within this Annual Report contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) on our current expectations and projections about future events. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “potential,” “continue,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” and similar expressions. These statements are based on our current beliefs, expectations, and assumptions and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and generally beyond our control, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed, projected or implied in or by the forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include the risks noted under Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” but are also contained elsewhere. We do not undertake any obligation to update any forward looking statements. Unless the context requires otherwise, references to “we,” “us,” “our,” and “Ethema,” refer to Ethema Health Corporation and its subsidiaries.

 

Furthermore, if our forward-looking statements prove to be inaccurate, the inaccuracy may be material. In light of the significant uncertainties in these forward-looking statements, you should not regard these statements as a representation or warranty by us or any other person that we will achieve our objectives and plans in any specified time frame, or at all. We do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statements.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. 

 

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). These accounting principles require us to make certain estimates, judgments, and assumptions. We believe that the estimates, judgments and assumptions upon which we rely are reasonable based upon information available to us at the time that these estimates, judgments, and assumptions are made. These estimates, judgments, and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented. Our consolidated financial statements would be affected to the extent there are material differences between these estimates. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Rent expense was $5,512 and $1,360,117 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, a decrease of $1,354,605 or 99.6%, due to the cancellation of the property lease as agreed to with the landlord in December 2019.

The operating loss was $163,344 and $4,199,735 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, a decrease of $4,036,391 or 96.1%. The decrease is attributable to the decrease in operating expenses discussed above.

 

Other income

 

Other income was $1,183 and $6,600 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, a decrease of $5,417 or 82.1%. This amount is immaterial.

 

Gain on debt extinguishment

Gain on debt extinguishment was $12,683,678 and $0 for the year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The company entered into several debt extinguishment agreements with convertible debt holders whereby the amounts payable and the payment terms under these convertible notes were renegotiated, this also resulted in the extinguishment of derivative liabilities related to these convertible notes.

 

Gain (loss) on sale of assets

 

The Gain on sale of assets was $36,470 and the loss on sale of assets was $1,019,812 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The gain in the current year represents an over-accrual for expenses relating to the disposal of the Delray Beach properties and the loss in the prior year represents the loss on the disposal of the Delray Beach properties during 2019.

 

Warrant exercise

Warrant exercise was $95,868 and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, an increase of $95,868 or 100%. During the current period a warrant holder exercised warrants for a total of 224,388,247 shares of common stock resulting in the expense of $95,868 for the issue of 184,000,000 shares.

 

Penalty on convertible notes

 

The penalty on convertible notes was $0 and $569,628 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The penalty arose on notes which were in default in 2019, penalties were either levied or provided for in terms of the agreements entered into with the lenders.

 

Loss on conversion of convertible debentures

 

Loss on conversion of convertible debentures was $585,351 and $203,981 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, an increase of 381,370 or 187.0%. The loss on conversion of convertible debentures was due to the conversion of debentures at a discount to market price by several convertible note holders during the current and prior year.

 

Deposit forfeited

 

On December 20, 2019, the Company entered into an agreement to terminate the lease agreement on January 30, 2020. The deposit forfeited was $1,665,078 for the year ended December 31, 2019. The deposit forfeited represents deposits initially paid for the acquisition of the West Palm Beach treatment facility located at 5400, 5402 and 5410 East Avenue West Palm Beach. We were unable to consummate the purchase transaction and entered into a lease agreement with the landlord, the deposit initially paid was offset against outstanding rental. The excess was recorded as a forfeiture.

 

Interest income 

Interest income was $629 and $17,226 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, a decrease of 16,597 or 96.3%. The interest income in the prior year was earned on the escrow balance due from the sale of Greenstone Muskoka in 2017.

Interest expense

 

Interest expense was $631,425 and $1,079,038 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, a decrease of $447,613 or 41.5%, primarily due to the decrease in mortgage liabilities on the disposal of the Delray Beach properties in the prior year and the conversion of convertible debt to equity during the current year.

 

Debt discount

 

Debt discount was $861,657 and $3,338,760 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, a decrease of $2,477,103 or 74.2%. The decrease is primarily due to the maturity date of several convertible notes prior to the current year, with the resultant full amortization of debt discount related to those convertible notes.

 

Derivative liability movement

 

The derivative liability movement during the current year represents the mark to market movements of variably priced convertible notes and warrants issued during the current and prior years. These securities are marked to market on a quarterly basis and the resultant gain or loss is recorded as a derivative liability movement in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

 

Foreign exchange movements

 

Foreign exchange movements was $(175,500) and $(311,606) for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively and represents the realized exchange gains and (losses) on monetary assets and liabilities settled during the current year as well as mark to market adjustments on monetary assets and liabilities reflected on the balance sheet and denominated in Canadian Dollars.

 

Net income (loss)

 

Net income was $3,084,992 and net loss was $(14,962,841) for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, an increase of $18,047,833 or 120.6%. The increase is primarily due to the reduction in operating expenses and the gain realized on debt extinguishments, offset by the increase in derivative liability movements, as discussed above.

 

Contingency related to outstanding payroll tax liabilities

 

The Company has also not filed certain foreign assets forms due to the US Federal Government. A provision of $250,000 was made for any potential penalties due. This issue is being addressed by our tax advisors.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Cash used in operating activities was $101,970 and $2,895,538 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively a decrease of $2,793,568 or 96.5%. The decrease is primarily due to the following:

 

  · The decrease in net loss of $18,047,833 as discussed above.

 

  · The decrease in non-cash movements of $13,368,909, primarily due to the gain on extinguishment of debt of $(12,596,352) and the movement on amortization of debt discount of $2,477,103 offset by the derivative liability movement of $4,442,939.

 

  · The decrease in cash generated from working capital movements of $1,885,356, primarily due to the reduction in all working capital balances during the current year.

 

Cash used in investing activities was $684,454 and cash generated by investing activities was $4,556,698 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. We invested $690,449 in a treatment facility based on West Palm Beach which we have committed to acquiring once we have concluded the sale agreement. In the prior year, we realized net proceeds on the disposal of the Delray Beach properties of $4,756,360.

 

 10 

 

Cash generated by financing activities was $854,019 and cash used by financing activities was $1,951,034 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. During the current year we raised $1,129,050 from convertible notes and repaid $210,600 in convertible notes, primarily to fund our new facility in West Palm Beach. In the prior year, we repaid the mortgage outstanding on the Delray properties of $3,067,073 out of the proceeds of the property disposal and repaid $2,504,695 to debt investors during the current year, in the prior year we raised $4,035,000 from debt investors.

 

Over the next twelve months we estimate that the company will require approximately $6.5 million in funding to repay its obligations, if these obligations are not converted to equity and for funding working capital as we continue to seek opportunities for addiction treatment in the US markets. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful with future financing ventures, and the inability to secure such financing may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition. In the opinion of management, the Company’s liquidity risk is assessed as high.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and

Stockholders of Ethema Health Corporation

West Palm Beach, Florida

 

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Ethema Health Corporation (the “Company”) at December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), changes in stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for each of the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

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

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

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

Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As described in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company had accumulated deficit of approximately $42.4 million and negative working capital of approximately $12.9 million at December 31, 2020, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are described in Note 3. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Critical Audit Matter

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

Accounting for Embedded Conversion Features on Convertible Notes – Refer to Notes 12 and 16 to the Financial Statements

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the valuation of derivatives is a critical audit matter are the significant judgment by management when developing the fair value of the derivative liabilities. This in turn led to a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating management’s significant assumptions related to the valuation models used and related variable inputs used within those models.

 

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing management’s process for developing the fair value estimate; evaluating the appropriateness of the valuation techniques; testing the completeness and accuracy of underlying data used in the model; and evaluating the significant assumptions used by management, including the values of expected volatility and discount rate. Evaluating management’s assumptions related to the volatility amounts and discount rates involved evaluating whether the assumptions used by management were reasonable considering the current and historical performance, the consistency with external market and industry data, and whether these assumptions were consistent with evidence obtained in other areas of the audit.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1. Nature of business

 

Ethema Health Corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the state of Colorado, USA, on April 1, 1993. Effective April 4, 2017, the Company changed its name to Ethema Health Corporation and prior to that, on May 2012, the Company had changed its name to GreeneStone Healthcare Corporation from Nova Natural Resources Corporation. As of December 31, 2017, the Company owned 100% of the outstanding shares of GreeneStone Clinic Muskoka Inc., incorporated in 2010 under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada; Cranberry Cove Holdings Ltd., incorporated on January 9, 2004 under the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada; Addiction Recovery Institute of America (“ARIA”) (formerly Seastone Delray Healthcare, LLC), incorporated on May 17, 2016 under the laws of Florida, USA; and Delray Andrews RE, LLC, incorporated on May 17, 2016 under the laws of Florida, USA.

 

During December 2016, the Company obtained a license to operate and provide addiction treatment healthcare services in Florida, USA. The company commenced operations under this license with effect from January 2017.

 

On February 14, 2017, the Company completed a series of transactions (referred to collectively as the “Restructuring Transactions”), including a Share Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) whereby the Company acquired 100% of the stock of CCH, which holds the real estate on which the Company previously operated a rehabilitation clinic (“the Canadian Rehab Clinic”). The Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “APA”) and lease (the “Lease”) whereby the Company sold all of the Canadian Rehab Clinic business assets and leased the real estate to the buyer. Simultaneously with this transaction, the Company entered into a Real Estate Purchase agreement and Asset Purchase Agreement whereby the Company purchased the real estate and business assets of Seastone Delray (the “Florida Purchase”).

 

The Share Purchase Agreement

Under the SPA, the Company acquired 100% of the stock of CCH from Leon Developments Ltd. (“Leon Developments”), a company wholly owned by Shawn E. Leon, who is the President, CEO, and CFO of the Company (“Mr. Leon”). CCH owns the real estate on which the Canadian Rehab Clinic is located. The total consideration paid by the Company was CDN$3,517,062, including the assumption of certain liabilities of CCH, which was funded by the assignment to Leon Developments of certain indebtedness owing to the Company in the amount of CDN$659,918, and the issuance of 60,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to Leon Developments, valued at US$0.0364 per share.

 

The Asset Purchase Agreement and Lease

Under the APA, the assets of the Canadian Rehab Clinic were sold by the Company, through its subsidiary, GreeneStone Clinic Muskoka Inc. (“Muskoka”), to Canadian Addiction Residential Treatment LP (the “Purchaser”), for a total consideration of CDN$10,000,000. The proceeds of the Muskoka clinic asset sale were used to pay down certain tax debts and operational costs of the Company and to fund the Florida Purchase, mentioned below.

 

Through the APA, substantially all of the assets of the Canadian Rehab Clinic were sold, leaving Ethema with only the underlying clinic real estate, which the Company, through its newly acquired subsidiary, CCH, concurrently leased to the Purchaser. The Lease is a triple net lease and provides for a five (5) year primary term with three (3) five-year renewal options, annual base rent for the first year at CDN$420,000 with annual increases, an option to tenant to purchase the leased premises and certain first refusal rights.

 

The Florida Purchase

Immediately after closing on the sale of the assets of the Canadian Rehab Clinic, the Company closed on the acquisition of the real estate assets of Seastone Delray pursuant to certain real estate and asset purchase agreements The purchase price for the Seastone assets was US$6,070,000, financed with a purchase money mortgage of US$3,000,000, and US$3,070,000 in cash.

 

On April 2, 2019, the Company disposed of the real property located at 801 Andrews Avenue, Delray Beach for gross proceeds of $3,500,000.

 

Since June 30, 2020, the Company has been actively involved in the operation of the treatment center operated by Evernia Health Center LLC (“Evernia”) at 950 Evernia Street, West Palm Beach Florida. The Company is under contract to purchase a majority interest in this company and has been financing the start up operations of this facility. This operation will be the Company’s only treatment center operating and expects the purchase of the majority interest to close in the second quarter of 2021.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies

 

Financial Reporting

 

The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).

 

Management further acknowledges that it is solely responsible for adopting sound accounting practices, establishing and maintaining a system of internal accounting control and preventing and detecting fraud. The Company’s system of internal accounting control is designed to assure, among other items, that i) recorded transactions are valid; ii) valid transactions are recorded; and iii) transactions are recorded in the proper period in a timely manner to produce financial statements which present fairly the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the respective periods being presented.

 

  a) Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

  b) Principals of consolidation and foreign currency translation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all of its subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated on consolidation.

 

Certain of the Company’s subsidiaries functional currency is the Canadian dollar, while the Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. All transactions initiated in Canadian dollars are translated into US dollars in accordance with ASC 830, “Foreign Currency Translation” as follows:

 

  Monetary assets and liabilities at the rate of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date.

 

  Non-monetary, non-current and equity at historical rates.

 

  Revenue and expense items and cash flows at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the period.

 

Adjustments arising from such translations are deferred until realization and are included as a separate component of stockholders’ deficit as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss. Therefore, translation adjustments are not included in determining net income (loss) but reported as other comprehensive income (loss).

 

For foreign currency transactions, the Company translates these amounts to the Company’s functional currency at the exchange rate effective on the invoice date. If the exchange rate changes between the time of purchase and the time actual payment is made, a foreign exchange transaction gain or loss results which is included in determining net income for the period.

 

The relevant translation rates are as follows: For the year ended December 31, 2020 a closing rate of CDN$1.0000 equals US$0.7854 and an average exchange rate of CDN$1.0000 equals US$0.7455. For the year ended December 31, 2019 a closing rate of CAD$1.0000 equals US$0.7699 and an average exchange rate of CAD$1.0000 equals US$0.7536.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

 

  c) Revenue Recognition

 

ASC 606 requires companies to exercise more judgment and recognize revenue using a five-step process.

 

The Company’s provision for doubtful accounts are recorded as a direct reduction to revenue instead of being presented as a separate line item on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

  

As our performance obligations relate to contracts with a duration of one year or less, the Company elected the optional exemption in ASC 606-10-50-14(a). Therefore, the Company is not required to disclose the transaction price for the remaining performance obligations at the end of the reporting period or when the Company expects to recognize the revenue. The Company has minimal unsatisfied performance obligations at the end of the reporting period as our patients typically are under no obligation to remain admitted in our facilities.

 

The Company receives payments from the following sources for services rendered in our U.S. Facility: (i) commercial insurers; and (ii) individual patients and clients. As the period between the time of service and time of payment is typically one year or less, the Company elected the practical expedient under ASC 606-10-32-18 and does not adjust for the effects of a significant financing component.

 

The Company derives a significant portion of its revenue from other payors that receive discounts from established billing rates. The various managed care contracts under which these discounts must be calculated are complex, subject to interpretation and adjustment, and may include multiple reimbursement mechanisms for different types of services provided in the Company’s inpatient facilities and cost settlement provisions. Management estimates the transaction price on a payor-specific basis given its interpretation of the applicable regulations or contract terms. The services authorized and provided and related reimbursement are often subject to interpretation that could result in payments that differ from the Company’s estimates. Additionally, updated regulations and contract renegotiations occur frequently, necessitating regular review and assessment of the estimation process by management.

 

Settlements with third-party payors are estimated and recorded in the period in which the related services are rendered and are adjusted in future periods as final settlements are determined. In the opinion of management, adequate provision has been made for any adjustments and final settlements. However, there can be no assurance that any such adjustments and final settlements will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations. The Company’s receivables were $3,075 and $105,842 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Management believes that these receivables are properly stated and are not likely to be settled for a significantly different amount. The net adjustments to estimated settlements resulted in a a credit to revenues of $2,734 and a charge to revenues of $414,603 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The credit to revenue is due to revenue collected from commercial insurers in excess of our expectations.

 

The Company’s revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those services. The Company derives its revenues from the sale of its services. The Company applies the following five steps in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under each of its revenue transactions:

 

  i. identify the contract with a customer;

 

  ii. identify the performance obligations in the contract;

  

  iii. determine the transaction price;

 

  iv. allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and

 

  v. recognize revenue as the performance obligation is satisfied.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

 

  d) Cash and cash equivalents

 

For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less and money market accounts to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents with several financial institution in the USA and Canada.

 

The Company primarily places cash balances in the USA with high-credit quality financial institutions located in the United States which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation up to a limit of $250,000 per institution, in Canada which are insured by the Canadian Deposit Insurance Corporation up to a limit of CDN$100,000 per institution.

 

  e) Accounts receivable

 

Accounts receivable primarily consists of amounts due from third-party payors (non-governmental) and private pay patients and is recorded net of allowances for doubtful accounts and contractual discounts. The Company’s ability to collect outstanding receivables is critical to its results of operations and cash flows. Accordingly, accounts receivable reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements is recorded at the net amount expected to be received. The Company’s primary collection risks are (i) the risk of overestimating net revenues at the time of billing that may result in the Company receiving less than the recorded receivable, (ii) the risk of non-payment as a result of commercial insurance companies denying claims, (iii) the risk that patients will fail to remit insurance payments to the Company when the commercial insurance company pays out-of-network claims directly to the patient, (iv) resource and capacity constraints that may prevent the Company from handling the volume of billing and collection issues in a timely manner, (v) the risk that patients do not pay the Company for their self-pay balances (including co-pays, deductibles and any portion of the claim not covered by insurance) and (vi) the risk of non-payment from uninsured patients.

 

  f) Allowance for Doubtful Accounts, Contractual and Other Discounts

 

The Company derives the majority of its revenues from commercial payors at out-of-network rates. Management estimates the allowance for contractual and other discounts based on its historical collection experience. The services authorized and provided and related reimbursement are often subject to interpretation and negotiation that could result in payments that differ from the Company’s estimates. The Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts is based on historical experience, but management also takes into consideration the age of accounts, creditworthiness and current economic trends when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. An account is written off only after the Company has pursued collection efforts or otherwise determines an account to be uncollectible. Uncollectible balances are written-off against the allowance. Recoveries of previously written-off balances are credited to income when the recoveries are made.

 

  g) Financial instruments

 

The Company initially measures its financial assets and liabilities at fair value, except for certain non-arm’s length transactions. The Company subsequently measures all its financial assets and financial liabilities at amortized cost.

 

Financial assets measured at amortized cost include cash and accounts receivable.

 

Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost include bank indebtedness, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, harmonized sales tax payable, withholding taxes payable, convertible notes payable, loans payable and related party notes.

 

Financial assets measured at cost are tested for impairment when there are indicators of impairment. The amount of the write-down is recognized in net income. The previously recognized impairment loss may be reversed to the extent of the improvement, directly or by adjusting the allowance account, provided it is no greater than the amount that would have been reported at the date of the reversal had the impairment not been recognized previously. The amount of the reversal is recognized in net income. The Company recognizes its transaction costs in net income in the period incurred. However, financial instruments that will not be subsequently measured at fair value are adjusted by the transaction costs that are directly attributable to their origination, issuance or assumption.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)

 

  g) Financial instruments (continued)

 

FASB ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 establishes a three tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

 

●       Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
●  Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which requires the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

 

The Company measures its convertible debt and derivative liabilities associated therewith at fair value. These liabilities are revalued periodically and the resultant gain or loss is realized through the Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

 

  h) Property and equipment

 

Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation is calculated on the straight line basis over the estimated life of the asset:

 

Building improvements are depreciated using the straight-line method over the term of the lease.

 

  i) Leases

 

The Company accounts for leases in terms of AC 842 whereby leases are classified as either capital or operating leases. Leases that transfer substantially all of the benefits and inherent risks of ownership of property to the Company are accounted for as capital leases. At the time a capital lease is entered into, an asset is recorded together with its related long-term obligation to reflect the acquisition and financing. Equipment recorded under capital leases is amortized on the same basis as described above. Operating leases are recognized on the balance sheet as a lease liability with a corresponding right of use asset for all leases with a term that is more than twelve months. Payments under operating leases are expensed as incurred.

 

  j) Income taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes”. Under ASC Topic 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred income taxes are provided using the liability method. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of temporary differences by applying enacted statutory rates applicable to future years to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities. The tax basis of an asset or liability is the amount attributed to that asset or liability for tax purposes. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period of change. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the amount of deferred tax assets if it is considered more likely than not that some portion of, or all of, the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

ASC Topic 740 contains a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The first step is to determine if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained in an audit, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued on unrecognized tax benefits within general and administrative expense. To the extent that accrued interest and penalties do not ultimately become payable, amounts accrued will be reduced and reflected as a reduction in general and administrative expenses in the period that such determination is made. The tax returns for fiscal 2016, through 2019 are subject to audit or review by the US tax authorities, whereas fiscal 2010 through 2017 are subject to audit or review by the Canadian tax authority.

  k) Net income (loss) per Share

 

Basic net income (loss) per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common stock outstanding during the period.

 

Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding. Dilutive securities having an anti-dilutive effect on diluted net income (loss) per share are excluded from the calculation.

 

Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method for options and warrants. Under this method, “in-the money” options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. Dilution is computed by applying the if-converted method for convertible preferred stocks. Under this method, convertible preferred stock is assumed to be converted at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and preferred dividends (if any) will be added back to determine income applicable to common stock. The shares issuable upon conversion will be added to weighted average number of common stock outstanding. Conversion will be assumed only if it reduces earnings per share (or increases loss per share). 

 

  l) Stock based compensation

 

Stock based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award and is recognized as expense over the employee’s requisite service period or vesting period on a straight-line basis. Share-based compensation expense recognized in the consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 is based on awards ultimately expected to vest and has been reduced for estimated forfeitures. This estimate will be revised in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. We have minimal awards with performance conditions and no awards dependent on market conditions.

 

  m) Derivatives

 

The Company evaluates embedded conversion features within convertible debt under ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” to determine whether the embedded conversion feature should be bifurcated from the host instrument and accounted for as a derivative at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings. The Company uses a Black Scholes Option Pricing model to estimate the fair value of convertible debt conversion features at the end of each applicable reporting period. Changes in the fair value of these derivatives during each reporting period are included in the statements of operations. Inputs into the Black Scholes Option Pricing model require estimates, including such items as estimated volatility of the Company’s stock, risk free interest rate and the estimated life of the financial instruments being fair valued.

 

If the conversion feature does not require derivative treatment under ASC 815, the instrument is evaluated under ASC 470-20 “Debt with Conversion and Other Options” for consideration of any beneficial conversion feature.

  n) Recent accounting pronouncements

 

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, debt with Conversion and Other Options (subtopic 470-20): and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). Certain accounting models for convertible debt instruments with beneficial conversion features or cash conversion features are removed from the guidance and for equity instruments the contracts affected are free standing instruments and embedded features that are accounted for as derivatives, the settlement assessment was simplified by removing certain settlement requirements.

 

This ASU is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2021.

 

The effects of this ASU on the Company’s consolidated financial statements is currently being assessed and is expected to have an impact on the treatment of certain convertible instruments, if any, and the derivative liabilities, if any, associated with these convertible instruments.

 

The FASB issued several additional updates during the period, none of these standards are either applicable to the Company or require adoption at a future date and none are expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

 

  o) Financial instruments Risks

 

The Company is exposed to various risks through its financial instruments. The following analysis provides a measure of the Company’s risk exposure and concentrations at the balance sheet date, December 31, 2020 and 2019.

 

  i. Credit risk

 

Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a financial loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation. Financial instruments that subject the Company to credit risk consist primarily of accounts receivable.

 

Credit risk associated with accounts receivable is mitigated as only a percentage of the revenue billed to health insurance companies is recognized as income until such time as the actual funds are collected. The revenue is concentrated amongst several health insurance companies located in the US.

 

In the opinion of management, credit risk with respect to accounts receivable is assessed as low.

 

  ii. Liquidity risk

 

Liquidity risk is the risk the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company is exposed to liquidity risk through its working capital deficiency of $12,929,648, which includes derivative liabilities of $4,765,387, and an accumulated deficit of $42,459,781. The Company is dependent upon the raising of additional capital in order to implement its business plan. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful with future financing ventures, and the inability to secure such financing may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition. In the opinion of management, liquidity risk is assessed as high, material and remains unchanged from that of the prior year.

  o) Financial instruments Risks (continued)

 

  iii. Market risk

 

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises of three types of risk: interest rate risk, currency risk, and other price risk. The Company is exposed to interest rate risk and currency risk.

 

  a. Interest rate risk

 

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its convertible debt, mortgage loans, short term loans, third party loans and government assistance loans as of December 31, 2020. In the opinion of management, interest rate risk is assessed as moderate.

 

  b. Currency risk

 

Currency risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company is subject to currency risk as it has subsidiaries that operate in Canada and are subject to fluctuations in the Canadian dollar. A substantial portion of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities are denominated in Canadian dollars. Based on the net exposures at December 31, 2020, a 5% depreciation or appreciation of the Canadian dollar against the U.S. dollar would result in an approximate $10,606 increase or decrease in the Company’s after tax net income from operations. The Company has not entered into any hedging agreements to mitigate this risk. In the opinion of management, currency risk is assessed as low, material and remains unchanged from that of the prior year.

 

  c. Other price risk

 

Other price risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market prices (other than those arising from interest rate risk or currency risk), whether those changes are caused by factors specific to the individual financial instrument or its issuer, or factors affecting all similar financial instruments traded in the market. In the opinion of management, the Company is not exposed to this risk and remains unchanged from the prior year.

3. Going concern

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations in the normal course of business. As at December 31, 2020 the Company has a working capital deficiency of $12,929,648, including derivative liabilities of $4,765,387 and accumulated deficit of $42,459,781. Management believes that current available resources will not be sufficient to fund the Company’s planned expenditures over the next 12 months. Accordingly, the Company will be dependent upon the raising of additional capital through placement of common shares, and/or debt financing in order to implement its business plan, and generating sufficient revenue in excess of costs. If the Company raises additional capital through the issuance of equity securities or securities convertible into equity, stockholders will experience dilution, and such securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of the holders of common stock or convertible senior notes. If the Company raises additional funds by issuing debt, the Company may be subject to limitations on its operations, through debt covenants or other restrictions. If the Company obtains additional funds through arrangements with collaborators or strategic partners, the Company may be required to relinquish its rights to certain geographical areas, or techniques that it might otherwise seek to retain. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful with future financing ventures, and the inability to secure such financing may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue operations.

 

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company generating cash from the sale of its common stock or obtaining debt financing and attaining future profitable operations. Management’s plans include selling its equity securities and obtaining debt financing to fund its capital requirements and ongoing operations; however, there can be no assurance the Company will be successful in these efforts.

 

These factors create substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability or classification of recorded assets and liabilities or other adjustments that may be necessary should the Company not be able to continue as a going concern.

 

4. Other current assets

 

Other current assets includes the following:

 

On February 25, 2019, the Company entered into a Letter of Intent whereby it would purchase a 33.33% interest in Local Link Wellness, LLC (“LLW”) for gross proceeds of $400,000. LLW proposes to provide a comprehensive addiction treatment program to large employee groups. The company has advanced LLW a total of $120,000 at December 31, 2020. These funds were advanced as short-term promissory notes that are immediately due and payable and are classified as other current assets on our consolidated balance sheet.

 

The Company has no intention to close on the purchase of LLW and is currently negotiating with the vendors to provide advertising services in lieu of the return of the $120,000 invested by the Company.

5. Other investments

  

On June 30, 2020, the Company entered into an agreement whereby the Company will acquire 51% of American Treatment Holdings, Inc. (“ATHI”) from The Q Global Trust (“Seller”) and Lawrence B Hawkins (“Hawkins”), which in turn owns 100% of Evernia Health Services LLC. (“Evernia”), which operates drug rehabilitation facilities.

  d) Warrants (continued)

 

The warrants were valued using a Black Scholes pricing model on the date of grant at $1,477,163 using the following weighted average assumptions: 

 

   

Year ended

December 31,

2020

Calculated stock price     $0.00006 to $0.00205  
Risk free interest rate     0.21% to 0.36%  
Expected life of warrants     36 to 60 months  
expected volatility of underlying stock     193.9% to 236.8%  
Expected dividend rate     0 %

 

The volatility of the common stock is estimated using historical data of the Company’s common stock. The risk-free interest rate used in the Black Scholes pricing model is determined by reference to historical U.S. Treasury constant maturity rates with maturities approximate to the life of the warrants granted. An expected dividend yield of zero is used in the valuation model, because the Company does not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

22. Income taxes

  

The Company is current in its US tax filings, except for its 2019 filing, as of December 31, 2020 and is not current in its Canadian tax filings with the 2016 and 2017 returns still outstanding. 

 

The income tax provision/ (benefit) is different from that which would be obtained by applying the statutory Federal income tax rate of 21% and applicable state tax rates of 5% to income before income tax expense. The items causing this difference for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 are as follows: 

 

   Year ended December 31, 2020  Year ended December 31, 2019
       
Tax credit at the federal and state statutory rate   857,250    (3,854,992)
Foreign taxation   (56,212)   (62,163 
Permanent differences   (1,091,032)   1,569,469 
Foreign tax rate differential   1,061    1,173 
Valuation allowance   288,933    2,346,513 
    —      —   

 

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effect of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of deferred tax assets and liabilities at December 31, 2020 and 2019 are as follows:

 

   December 31,
2020
  December 31,
2019
Net operating losses          
Net operating loss carry forward   32,968,411    24,023,480 
Prior year adjustment to opening balances   150,639    —   
Foreign exchange differential   48,579    68,923 
Net taxable loss   1,111,286    8,876,008 
Valuation allowance   (34,278,915)   (32,968,411)
    —      —   

 

The company has established a valuation allowance against its gross deferred tax assets sufficient to bring its net deferred tax assets to zero due to the uncertainty surrounding the realization of such assets. Management has determined it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets are not realizable due to the Company’s historical loss position. The valuation allowance for the year ended December 31, 2020 increased by $1,310,504 due to the additional taxation losses incurred for the year ended December 31, 2020 and adjustments made to prior year opening balances.

 

As of December 31, 2020, the prior three tax years remain open for examination by the federal or state regulatory agencies for purposes of an audit for tax purposes.

 

Pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“IRC”), §382, the Company’s ability to use its net operating loss carry forwards to offset future taxable income is limited if the Company experiences a cumulative change in ownership of more than 50% within a three-year period.

 

As of December 31, 2020, the Company is in arrears on certain US and Canadian tax filings and the amounts presented above are based on estimates. The actual losses available could differ from these estimates. In addition, the Company could be subject to penalties for these unfiled tax returns.

22. Income taxes (continued)

  

As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company has accrued $250,000 in penalties and interest attributable to delinquent tax returns. Management believes the Company has adequately provided for any ultimate amounts that are likely to result from audits of these returns once filed; however, final assessments, if any, could be significantly different than the amounts recorded in the financial statements.

 

The Company operates in foreign jurisdictions and is subject to audit by taxing authorities. These audits may result in the assessment of amounts different than the amounts recorded in the consolidated financial statements. The Company liaises with the relevant authorities in these jurisdictions in regard to its income tax and other returns. Management believes the Company has adequately provided for any taxes, penalties and interest that may fall due.

 

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”) was signed into law on December 22, 2017 and significantly changes tax law in the United States by, among other items, reducing the federal corporate income tax rate from a maximum of 35% to 21% (effective January 1, 2018). The Act embraces a territorial system for the taxation of future foreign earnings and modifies certain business deductions by, among other changes, repealing the domestic production activities deduction, further limiting the deductibility of certain executive compensation and increasing the limitation on the deductibility of certain meals and entertainment expenses. On the other hand, the Act permits 100% bonus depreciation on assets placed in service through 2022 (with a phase-out period through 2026). The full effects of these changes will be reflected for the first time in the determination of income tax expense for the year ending December 31, 2018. The Company determined that it had no liability as of December 31, 2018 for the one-time transition tax on deemed repatriated earnings of foreign subsidiaries imposed by the Act.

 

23. Subsequent events

  

On January 8, 2021, Leonite converted the remaining balance of the Leonite on demand note in the aggregate principal amount of $70,000 plus accrued interest thereon into 78,763,466 shares of common stock at a conversion price of $0.0009 per share, thereby extinguishing the note.

 

On March 3, 2021, the Company received a notice of conversion, converting principal and interest in the aggeregate principal amount of $95,000 of the Leonite convertible loan advanced to the Company on July 12, 2020 into 97,000,000 shares of common stock at a conversion price of $0.001 per share.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

 

Annual Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We have adopted and maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods required under the SEC’s rules and forms and that the information is gathered and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive Officer) and Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial Officer), to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

As required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 13a-15 as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the foregoing evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that due to our limited resources our disclosure controls and procedures are not effective in providing material information required to be included in our periodic SEC filings on a timely basis and to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our periodic SEC filings is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure about our internal control over financial reporting discussed below.

 

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for our company. Our internal control system was designed to, in general, provide reasonable assurance to our management and board regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements, but 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.

 

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020. The framework used by management in making that assessment was the criteria set forth in the document entitled “Internal Control – Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013). Based on that assessment, our management has determined that as of December 31, 2020, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective due to material weaknesses related to a limited segregation of duties due to our limited resources and the small number of employees. Management has determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness which could result in material misstatements of significant accounts and disclosures that could result in a material misstatement to our interim or annual financial statements that would not be prevented or detected. In addition, due to limited staffing, we are not always able to detect minor errors or omissions in reporting.

 

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding management’s assessment of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2020 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

 

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

 

We have adopted a code of conduct that applies to all officers, directors and employees, including those officers responsible for financial reporting. If we make any substantive amendments to the code of conduct or grant any waiver from a provision of the code of conduct to any executive officer or director, we will promptly disclose the nature of the amendment or in a Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed with the SEC.

 

Our Board of Directors

 

Our Board currently consists of three members. Our Board judges the independence of its directors by the heightened standards established by the Nasdaq Stock Market. Accordingly, the Board of Directors has determined that our two non-employee directors, Messrs. O’Bireck and Mr. Miller, each meet the independence standards established by the Nasdaq Stock Market and the applicable independence rules and regulations of the SEC. Our Board considers a director to be independent when the director is not one of our or our subsidiaries’ officers or employees or director of our subsidiaries, does not have any relationship which would, or could reasonably appear to, materially interfere with the independent judgment of such director, and the director otherwise meets the independence requirements under the listing standards of the Nasdaq Stock Market and the rules and regulations of the SEC.
