NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Reincorporation

On May 13, 2020, the Company effected a reincorporation from the State of Delaware to the State of Nevada. Following the approval by the Company’s stockholders at a special meeting held on May 8, 2020, Recruiter.com Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Recruiter.com Delaware”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Recruiter.com Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Recruiter.com Delaware (“Recruiter.com Nevada”), pursuant to which Recruiter.com Delaware merged with and into Recruiter.com Nevada, with Recruiter.com Nevada continuing as the surviving entity. Simultaneously with the reincorporation, the number of shares of common stock the Company is authorized to issue was increased from 31,250,000 shares to 250,000,000 shares.

The reincorporation did not result in any change in the corporate name, business, management, fiscal year, accounting, location of the principal executive office, or assets or liabilities of the Company.

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of RGI and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited. The unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. Accordingly, these interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto of RGI for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, filed with the SEC on March 9, 2021. The December 31, 2020 balance sheet is derived from those statements.

In the opinion of management, these unaudited interim financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and non-recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the periods presented). The results for the three months ended March 31, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021 or for any future period. All references to March 31, 2021 and 2020 in these footnotes are unaudited.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results and outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions. Included in these estimates are assumptions used to estimate collection of accounts receivable, fair value of marketable securities, fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in an asset acquisition and the estimated useful life of assets acquired, fair value of contingent consideration in asset acquisitions, fair value of derivative liabilities, fair value of securities issued for acquisitions, fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination, fair value of intangible assets and goodwill, valuation of lease liabilities and related right of use assets, deferred income tax asset valuation allowances, and valuation of stock based compensation expense.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all short-term highly liquid investments with a remaining maturity at the date of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are maintained at financial institutions and, at times, balances may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses related to these balances as of March 31, 2020. There were no uninsured balances as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The Company had no cash equivalents during or at the end of either period.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”). Revenues are recognized when control is transferred to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods. Revenue recognition is evaluated through the following five steps: (i) identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer; (ii) identification of the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determination of the transaction price; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognition of revenue when or as a performance obligation is satisfied.

We generate revenue from the following activities:

●

Recruiters on Demand: Consists of a consulting and staffing service specifically for the placement of professional recruiters, which we market as Recruiters on Demand. Recruiters on Demand is a flexible, time-based solution that provides businesses of all sizes access to recruiters on an outsourced, virtual basis for help with their hiring needs. As with other consulting and staffing solutions, we procure for our employer clients qualified professional recruiters, and then place them on assignment with our employer clients. Revenue earned through Recruiters on Demand is derived by billing the employer clients for the placed recruiters’ ongoing work at an agreed-upon, time-based rate. We directly source recruiter candidates from our network of recruiters on the Platform, as the recruiter user base of our Platform has the proper skill-set for recruiting and hiring projects. We had previously referred to this service in our revenue disaggregation disclosure in our consolidated financial statements as license and other, but on July 1, 2020, we rebranded as Recruiters on Demand.

Consulting and Staffing: Consists of providing consulting and staffing personnel services to employers to satisfy their demand for long- and short-term consulting and temporary employee needs. We generate revenue by first referring qualified personnel for the employer’s specific talent needs, then placing that personnel with the employer, but with us or our providers acting as the employer of record, and finally, billing the employer for the time and work of our placed personnel on an ongoing basis. Our process for finding candidates for consulting and staffing engagements largely mirrors our process for full-time placement hiring. This process includes employers informing us of open consulting and temporary staffing opportunities and projects, sourcing qualified candidates through the Platform and other similar means, and, finally, the employer selecting our candidates for placement after a process of review and selection. We bill these employer clients for our placed candidates’ ongoing work at an agreed-upon, time-based rate, typically on a weekly schedule of invoicing.

●

Full-time Placement: Consists of providing referrals of qualified candidates to employers to hire staff for full-time positions. We generate full-time placement revenue by earning one-time fees for each time that employers hire one of the candidates that we refer. Employers alert us of their hiring needs through our Platform or other communications. We source qualified candidate referrals for the employers’ available jobs through independent recruiter users that access our Platform and other tools. We support and supplement the independent recruiters’ efforts with dedicated internal employees we call our internal talent delivery team. Our talent delivery team selects and delivers candidate profiles and resumes to our employer clients for their review and ultimate selection. Upon the employer hiring one or more of our candidate referrals, we earn a “full-time placement fee”, an amount separately negotiated with each employer client. The full-time placement fee is typically either a percentage of the referred candidates’ first year’s base salary or an agreed-upon flat fee.

●

Marketing Solutions: Our “Marketing Solutions” allow companies to promote their unique brands on our website, the Platform, and our other business-related content and communication. This is accomplished through various forms of online advertising, including sponsorship of digital newsletters, online content promotion, social media distribution, banner advertising, and other branded electronic communications, such as in our quarterly digital publication on recruiting trends and issues. Customers who purchase our Marketing Solutions typically specialize in B2B software and other platform companies that focus on recruitment and human Resources processing. We earn revenue as we complete agreed upon marketing related deliverables and milestones using pricing and terms set by mutual agreement with the customer. In addition to its work with direct clients, the Company categorizes all online advertising and affiliate marketing revenue as Marketing Solutions.

●

Career Solutions: We provide services to assist job seekers with their career advancement. These services include a resume distribution service which involves promoting these job seekers’ profiles and resumes to assist with their procuring employment, and upskilling and training. Our resume distribution service allows a job seeker to upload his/her resume to our database, which we then distribute to our network of recruiters on the Platform. We earn revenue from a one-time flat fee for this service. We also offer a recruiter certification program which encompasses our recruitment related training content, which we make accessible through our online learning management system. Customers of the recruiter certification program use a self-managed system to navigate through a digital course of study. Upon completion of the program, we issue a certificate of completion and make available a digital badge to certify their achievement for display on their online recruiter profile on the Platform. For approximately the four months following March 31, 2020, the Company provided the recruiter certification program free in response to COVID-19. We partner with Careerdash, a high-quality training company, to provide Recruiter.com Academy, an immersive training experience for career changers.

We have a sales team and sales partnerships with direct employers as well as Vendor Management System companies and Managed Service companies that help create sales channels for clients that buy staffing, direct hire, and sourcing services. Once we have secured the relationship and contract with the interested Enterprise customer the delivery and product teams will provide the service to fulfill any or all of the revenue segments.

Revenues as presented on the statement of operations represent services rendered to customers less sales adjustments and allowances.

Recruiters on Demand services are billed to clients as either monthly subscriptions or time-based billings. Revenues for Recruiters on Demand are recognized on a gross basis when each monthly subscription service is completed.

Consulting and Staffing Services revenues represent services rendered to customers less sales adjustments and allowances. Reimbursements, including those related to travel and out-of-pocket expenses, are also included in the net service revenues and equivalent amounts of reimbursable expenses are included in costs of revenue. We record substantially all revenue on a gross basis as a principal versus on a net basis as an agent in the presentation of this line of revenues and expenses. We have concluded that gross reporting is appropriate because we have the task of identifying and hiring qualified employees, and our discretion to select the employees and establish their compensation and duties causes us to bear the risk for services that are not fully paid for by customers. Consulting and staffing revenues are recognized when the services are rendered by the temporary employees. Payroll and related taxes of certain employees that are placed on temporary assignment are outsourced to third party payors or related party payors. The payors pay all related costs of employment for these employees, including workers’ compensation insurance, state and federal unemployment taxes, social security and certain fringe benefits. We assume the risk of acceptability of the employees to customers. Payments for consulting and staffing services are typically due within 90 days of completion of services.

Full time placement revenues are recognized on a gross basis when the guarantee period specified in each customer’s contract expires. No fees for direct hire placement services are charged to the employment candidates. Any payments received prior to the expiration of the guarantee period are recorded as a deferred revenue liability. Payments for recruitment services are typically due within 90 days of completion of services.

Marketplace Solutions services revenues are recognized on a gross basis when the advertising is placed and displayed or when lead generation activities and online publications are completed, which is the point at which the performance obligations are satisfied. Payments for marketing and publishing are typically due within 30 days of completion of services.

Career services revenues are recognized on a gross basis upon distribution of resumes or completion of training courses, which is the point at which the performance obligations are satisfied. Payments for career services are typically due upon distribution or completion of services.

Deferred revenue results from transactions in which the Company has been paid for services by customers, but for which all revenue recognition criteria have not yet been met. Once all revenue recognition criteria have been met, the deferred revenues are recognized.

Sales tax collected is recorded on a net basis and is excluded from revenue.

Contract Assets

The Company does not have any contract assets such as work-in-process. All trade receivables on the Company’s balance sheet are from contracts with customers.

Contract Costs

Costs incurred to obtain a contract are capitalized unless they are short term in nature. As a practical matter, costs to obtain a contract that are short term in nature are expensed as incurred. The Company does not have any contract costs capitalized as of March 31, 2021 or December 31, 2020.

Contract Liabilities - Deferred Revenue

The Company’s contract liabilities consist of advance customer payments and deferred revenue. Deferred revenue results from transactions in which the Company has been paid for services by customers, but for which all revenue recognition criteria have not yet been met. Once all revenue recognition criteria have been met, the deferred revenues are recognized.

For each of the identified periods, revenues can be categorized into the following:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2021	2020
Recruiters on Demand	$957,479	$184,975
Consulting and staffing services	2,072,446	1,913,394
Permanent placement fees	39,966	137,627
Marketplace Solutions	40,981	40,193
Career services	53,673	36,934
Total revenue	$3,164,545	$2,313,123

As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, deferred revenue amounted to $139,382 and $51,537 respectively. As of March 31, 2021, deferred revenues associated with placement services are $139,382 and we expect the recognition of such services to be within the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Revenue from international sources was approximately 2% and 2% for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Costs of Revenue

Costs of revenues consist of employee costs, third party staffing costs and other fees, outsourced recruiter fees and commissions based on a percentage of Recruiting Solutions gross margin.

Accounts Receivable

Credit is extended to customers based on an evaluation of their financial condition and other factors. Management periodically assesses the Company’s accounts receivable and, if necessary, establishes an allowance for estimated uncollectible amounts. Accounts determined to be uncollectible are charged to operations when that determination is made. The Company usually does not require collateral. We have recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts of $47,463 and $33,000 as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Bad debt expense was $16,963 and $11,250 for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Concentration of Credit Risk and Significant Customers and Vendors

As of March 31, 2021, two customers accounted for more than 10% of the accounts receivable balance, at 26% and 11%, for a total of 37%.

As of March 31, 2020, three customers accounted for more than 10% of the accounts receivable balance, at 32%, 16% and 12% for a total of 60%.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021 two customers accounted for 10% of more of total revenue, at 27% and 15%, for a total of 42%.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020 two customers accounted for 10% or more of total revenue, at 33% and 18%, for a total of 51%.

We use a related party firm for software development and maintenance related to our website and the platform underlying our operations. One of our officers and principal shareholders is an employee of this firm and exerts control over this firm (see Note 11).

We are a party to that certain license agreement with a related party firm (see Note 11). Pursuant to the license agreement the firm has granted us an exclusive license to use certain candidate matching software and render certain related services to us. If this relationship was terminated or if the firm was to cease doing business or cease to support the applications we currently utilize, we may be forced to expend significant time and resources to replace the licensed software. Further, the necessary replacements may not be available on a timely basis on favorable terms, or at all. If we were to lose the ability to use this software our business and operating results could be materially and adversely affected.

We use a related party firm to provide certain employer of record services (see Note 11).

We use a related party firm to provide certain recruiting services (see Note 11).

Advertising and Marketing Costs

The Company expenses all advertising and marketing costs as incurred. Advertising and marketing costs were $57,543 and $25,243 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

The Company measures and discloses the fair value of assets and liabilities required to be carried at fair value in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a hierarchical framework for measuring fair value, and enhances fair value measurement disclosure.

ASC 825 defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and risk of nonperformance. ASC 825 establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 825 establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 - Quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets to which we have access at the measurement date.

Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The determination of where assets and liabilities fall within this hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The Company’s investment in available for sale securities and warrant derivative liabilities are measured at fair value. The securities are measured based on current trading prices using Level 1 fair value inputs. The Company’s derivative instruments are valued using Level 3 fair value inputs. The Company does not have any other financial instruments which require re-measurement to fair value. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and loans payable represent fair value based upon their short-term nature.

A financial asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The table below summarizes the fair values of our financial assets and liabilities as of March 31, 2021:

	Fair Value at March 31,	Fair Value Measurement Using
	2021	Level 1	Level 2	Level 3

Available for sale marketable securities (Note 3)	$1,647	$1,647	$-	$-
Warrant derivative liability (Note 9)	$16,496,364	$-	$-	$16,496,364

The reconciliation of the derivative liability measured at fair value on a recurring basis using unobservable inputs (Level 3) is as follows for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020:

	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2021	2020
Balance at January 1	$11,537,997	$612,042
Additions to derivative instruments	5,960,058	-
Reclassifications to equity upon extinguishment	(373,070)	-
(Gain) loss on change in fair value of derivative liability	(628,621)	565,088
Balance at March 31	$16,496,364	$1,177,130

Business Combinations

For all business combinations (whether partial, full or step acquisitions), the Company records 100% of all assets and liabilities of the acquired business, including goodwill, generally at their fair values; contingent consideration, if any, is recognized at its fair value on the acquisition date and, for certain arrangements, changes in fair value are recognized in earnings until settlement and acquisition-related transaction and restructuring costs are expensed rather than treated as part of the cost of the acquisition.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets consist primarily of the assets acquired from Genesys in 2019, including customer contracts and intellectual property, acquired on March 31, 2019 and the assets acquired from Scouted and Upsider during the first quarter of 2021 (see Note 12). Amortization expense will be recorded on the straight line basis over the estimated economic lives.

Goodwill

Goodwill is comprised of the purchase price of business combinations in excess of the fair value assigned at acquisition to the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized. The Company tests goodwill for impairment for its reporting units on an annual basis, or when events occur, or circumstances indicate the fair value of a reporting unit is below its carrying value.

The Company performs its annual goodwill and impairment assessment on December 31st of each year (see Note 4).

When evaluating the potential impairment of goodwill, management first assess a range of qualitative factors, including but not limited to, macroeconomic conditions, industry conditions, the competitive environment, changes in the market for the Company’s products and services, regulatory and political developments, entity specific factors such as strategy and changes in key personnel, and the overall financial performance for each of the Company’s reporting units. If, after completing this assessment, it is determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, we then proceed to the impairment testing methodology primarily using the income approach (discounted cash flow method).

We compare the carrying value of the reporting unit, including goodwill, with its fair value, as determined by its estimated discounted cash flows. If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, then the amount of impairment to be recognized is recognized as the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value.

When required, we arrive at our estimates of fair value using a discounted cash flow methodology which includes estimates of future cash flows to be generated by specifically identified assets, as well as selecting a discount rate to measure the present value of those anticipated cash flows. Estimating future cash flows requires significant judgment and includes making assumptions about projected growth rates, industry-specific factors, working capital requirements, weighted average cost of capital, and current and anticipated operating conditions. The use of different assumptions or estimates for future cash flows could produce different results.

Long-lived assets

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the book value of the asset may not be recoverable. The Company periodically evaluates whether events and circumstances have occurred that indicate possible impairment. When impairment indicators exist, the Company estimates the future undiscounted net cash flows of the related asset or asset group over the remaining life of the asset in measuring whether or not the asset values are recoverable.

Stock-Based Compensation

We account for our stock-based compensation under ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation” using the fair value based method. Under this method, compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the shorter of the service period or the vesting period of the stock-based compensation. This guidance establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges it equity instruments for goods or services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. The Company estimates the fair value of each stock option at the grant date by using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Determining the fair value of stock-based compensation at the grant date under this model requires judgment, including estimating volatility, employee stock option exercise behaviors and forfeiture rates. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based compensation represent the Company’s best estimates, but these estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management judgment.

Convertible Instruments

The Company evaluates and accounts for conversion options embedded in its convertible instruments in accordance with various accounting standards.

ASC 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities From Equity” provides that instruments convertible predominantly at a fixed rate resulting in a fixed monetary amount due upon conversion with a variable quantity of shares (“stock settled debt”) be recorded as a liability at the fixed monetary amount.

ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” generally provides three criteria that, if met, require companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments. These three criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur, and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument. Professional standards also provide an exception to this rule when the host instrument is deemed to be conventional as defined under professional standards as “The Meaning of Conventional Convertible Debt Instrument.”

The Company accounts for convertible instruments (when it has determined that the instrument is not a stock settled debt and the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments) in accordance with professional standards when “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features,” as those professional standards pertain to “Certain Convertible Instruments.” Accordingly, the Company records, when necessary, discounts to convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. Discounts under these arrangements are amortized over the term of the related debt to their earliest date of redemption. The Company also records when necessary deemed dividends for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in preferred shares based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the share transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the preferred shares.

ASC 815-40 provides that generally if an event is not within the entity’s control and could require net cash settlement, then the contract shall be classified as an asset or a liability.

Derivative Instruments

The Company’s derivative financial instruments consist of derivatives related to the warrants issued with the sale of our convertible notes in 2020 and 2021 (see Notes 7 and 9) and the warrants issued with the sale of our Series D Preferred Stock in 2020 and 2019 (see Note 9). The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that we record the derivatives at their fair values as of the inception date of the debt agreements and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. Any change in fair value is recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense at each balance sheet date. If the fair value of the derivatives was higher at the subsequent balance sheet date, we recorded a non-operating, non-cash charge. If the fair value of the derivatives was lower at the subsequent balance sheet date, we recorded non-operating, non-cash income. Upon the determination that an instrument is no longer subject to derivative accounting, the fair value of the derivative instrument at the date of such determination will be reclassified to paid in capital.

Product Development

Product development costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses and consist of support, maintenance and upgrades of our website and IT platform and are charged to operations as incurred.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

The Company follows ASC 260 “Earnings Per Share” for calculating the basic and diluted earnings (or loss) per share. Basic earnings (or loss) per share are computed by dividing earnings (or loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (or loss) per share is computed similar to basic loss per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if the potential shares of common stock had been issued and if the additional shares were dilutive. Common stock equivalents are excluded from the diluted earnings (or loss) per share computation if their effect is anti-dilutive. Common stock equivalents in amounts of 27,430,594 and 18,685,872 were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the 3 months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, because their effects would have been anti-dilutive.

	March 31,	March 31,
	2021	2020
Options	2,188,258	873,420
Stock awards	554,000	402,500
Warrants	5,796,843	470,939
Convertible notes	3,600,505	-
Convertible preferred stock	15,290,988	16,939,013
	27,430,594	18,685,872

Business Segments

The Company uses the “management approach” to identify its reportable segments. The management approach designates the internal organization used by management for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the basis for identifying the Company’s reportable segments. Using the management approach, the Company determined that it has one operating segment.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

There have not been any recent changes in accounting pronouncements and ASU issued by the FASB that are of significance or potential significance to the Company except as disclosed below.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” This guidance, among other provisions, eliminates certain exceptions to existing guidance related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. This guidance also requires an entity to reflect the effect of an enacted change in tax laws or rates in its effective income tax rate in the first interim period that includes the enactment date of the new legislation, aligning the timing of recognition of the effects from enacted tax law changes on the effective income tax rate with the effects on deferred income tax assets and liabilities. Under existing guidance, an entity recognizes the effects of the enacted tax law change on the effective income tax rate in the period that includes the effective date of the tax law. ASU 2019-12 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of ASU 2019-12 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2 — GOING CONCERN

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company’s management has evaluated whether there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and has determined that substantial doubt existed as of the date of the end of the period covered by this report. This determination was based on the following factors: (i) the Company has a working capital deficit as of March 31, 2021 and the Company’s available cash as of the date of this filing will not be sufficient to fund its anticipated level of operations for the next 12 months; (ii) the Company will require additional financing for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021 to continue at its expected level of operations; and (iii) if the Company fails to obtain the needed capital, it will be forced to delay, scale back, or eliminate some or all of its development activities or perhaps cease operations. In the opinion of management, these factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern as of the date of the end of the period covered by this report and for one year from the issuance of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

In January 2021 the Company raised approximately $3 million in gross proceeds through the issuance of convertible debentures and warrants as more fully disclosed in Note 7. The Company also received $250,000 in proceeds from a promissory note in May 2021 as more fully disclosed in Note 13. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in any other capital-raising efforts that it may undertake to fund operations during the next 12 months. The Company anticipates that it will issue equity and/or debt securities as a source of liquidity, until it begins to generate positive cash flow to support its operations. Any future sales of securities to finance operations will dilute existing shareholders’ ownership. The Company cannot guarantee when or if it will generate positive cash flow.

In March 2020, the outbreak of COVID-19 (coronavirus) caused by a novel strain of the coronavirus was recognized as a pandemic by the World Health Organization, and the outbreak has become increasingly widespread in the United States, including in each of the areas in which the Company operates. While to date the Company has not been required to stop operating, management is evaluating its use of its office space, virtual meetings and the like. We have reduced certain billing rates to respond to the current economic climate. Additionally, while we have experienced, and could continue to experience, a loss of clients as the result of the pandemic, we expect that the impact of such attrition would be mitigated by the addition of new clients resulting from our continued efforts to adjust the Company’s operations to address changes in the recruitment industry. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will impact our operations, ability to obtain financing or future financial results is uncertain at this time. Due to the effects of COVID-19, the Company took steps to streamline certain expenses, such as temporarily cutting certain executive compensation packages by approximately 20%. Management also worked to reduce unnecessary marketing expenditures and worked to improve staff and human capital expenditures, while maintaining overall workforce levels. The Company expects but cannot guarantee that demand for its recruiting solutions will improve later in 2021, as certain clients re-open or accelerate their hiring initiatives, and new clients utilize our services. The Company does not expect reductions made in the second quarter of 2020 due to COVID-19 will inhibit its ability to meet client demand. Overall, management is focused on effectively positioning the Company for a rebound in hiring which we expect later in 2021. Ultimately, the recovery may be delayed and the economic conditions may worsen. The Company continues to closely monitor the confidence of its recruiter users and customers, and their respective job requirement load through offline discussions and the Company’s Recruiter Index survey.

We also depend on raising additional debt or equity capital to stay operational. The economic impact of COVID-19 may make it more difficult for us to raise additional capital when needed. The terms of any financing, if we are able to complete one, will likely not be favorable to us. If we are unable to raise additional capital, we may not be able to meet our obligations as they come due, raising substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 3 — INVESTMENT IN AVAILABLE FOR SALE MARKETABLE SECURITIES

The Company’s investment in marketable equity securities is being held for an indefinite period. Cost basis of marketable securities held as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was $42,720 and accumulated unrealized losses were $41,073 and $41,296 as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The fair market value of available for sale marketable securities was $1,647 as of March 31, 2021, based on 178,000 shares of common stock held in one entity with an average per share market price of approximately $0.01.

Net recognized gains (losses) on equity investments were as follows:

	Three Months Ended
	March 31,
	2021	2020
Net realized gains (losses) on investment sold	$-	$(2,142)
Net unrealized gains (losses) on investments still held	223	(16,644)

Total	$223	$(18,786)

The reconciliation of the investment in marketable securities is as follows for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020:

	March 31,	March 31,
	2021	2020
Balance – December 31	$1,424	$44,766

Proceeds on sales of securities	-	(14,955)
Recognized gain (loss)	223	(18,786)
Balance – March 31	$1,647	$11,025

NOTE 4 — GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill

Goodwill is derived from our 2019 business acquisition. The Company performed its most recent annual goodwill impairment test as of December 31, 2020 using market data and discounted cash flow analysis. Based on that test, we have determined that the carrying value of goodwill was not impaired at December 31, 2020. There were also no indicators of impairment at March 31, 2021.

Intangible Assets

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we acquired certain intangible assets pursuant to our Scouted and Upsider acquisitions described in Note 12. These intangible assets aggregate approximately $5.9 million and consist primarily of sales and client relationships, contracts, intellectual property, partnership and vendor agreements and certain other assets. We are in the process of completing the accounting and valuations of the assets acquired and, accordingly, the estimated fair values of these intangible assets are provisional pending the final valuations which will not exceed one year in accordance with ASC 805.

Intangible assets are summarized as follows:

	March 31,2021	December 31,2020
Customer contracts	$233,107	$233,107
License	1,726,965	1,726,965
Intangible assets, including sales and client relationships, contracts, intellectual property, partnership and vendor agreements and certain other assets acquired pursuant to 2021 business acquisitions (see Note 12)	5,853,031	-
	7,813,103	1,960,072
Less accumulated amortization	(1,323,381)	(1,164,208)
Carrying value	$6,489,722	$795,864

Amortization expense of intangible assets was $159,173 and $159,173 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 respectively, related to the intangible assets acquired in business combinations. Future amortization of intangible assets excluding the recently acquired intangibles from the Scouted, Upsider and OneWire acquisitions is expected to be approximately $637,000 for 2021 and $159,000 for 2022. The Company will begin amortizing intangible assets from the three recently acquired acquisitions in the second quarter of 2021 upon completion of the purchase price allocations.

NOTE 5 — LIABILITY FOR SALE OF FUTURE REVENUES

NOTE 7 — CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

2020 Debentures:

In May and June 2020, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, effective May 28, 2020 (the “Purchase Agreement”) with several accredited investors (the “Purchasers”). Four of the investors had previously invested in the Company’s preferred stock. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company sold to the Purchasers a total of (i) $2,953,125 in the aggregate principal amount of 12.5% Original Issue Discount Senior Subordinated Secured Convertible Debentures (the “Debentures”), and (ii) 1,845,703 common stock purchase warrants (the “Warrants”), which represents 100% warrant coverage. The Company received a total of $2,226,000 in net proceeds from the offering, after deducting the 12.5% original issue discount of $328,125, offering expenses and commissions, including the placement agent’s commission and fees of $295,000, reimbursement of the placement agent’s and lead investor’s legal fees and the Company’s legal fees in the aggregate amount of $100,000 and escrow agent fees of $4,000. The Company also agreed to issue to the placement agent, as additional compensation, 369,141 common stock purchase warrants exercisable at $2.00 per share.

The Debentures mature on May 28, 2021, subject to a six-month extension at the Company’s option. The Debentures bear interest at 8% per annum payable quarterly, subject to an increase in case of an event of default as provided for therein. The Debentures are convertible into shares of Common Stock at any time following the date of issuance at the Purchasers’ option at a conversion price of $1.60 per share, subject to certain adjustments. The Debentures are subject to mandatory conversion in the event the Company closes an equity offering of at least $5,000,000 resulting in the listing of the Company’s common stock on a national securities exchange. The Debentures rank senior to all existing and future indebtedness of the Company and its subsidiaries, except for approximately $508,000 of outstanding senior indebtedness. The Company may prepay the Debentures at any time at a premium as provided for therein.

The Warrants are exercisable for three years from May 28, 2020 at an exercise price of $2.00 per share, subject to certain adjustments.

As of March 31, 2021, there was $2,576,125 outstanding on the Debentures (see Note 8 for conversions) with unamortized discount and debt costs of $419,670.

2021 Debentures:

During January 2021, the Company entered into two Securities Purchase Agreements, effective January 5, 2021 and January 20, 2021 (the “Purchase Agreements”), with twenty accredited investors (the “Purchasers”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreements, the Company agreed to sell to the Purchasers a total of (i) $2,799,000 in the aggregate principal amount of 12.5% Original Issue Discount Senior Subordinated Secured Convertible Debentures (the “Debentures”), and (ii) 1,749,375 common stock purchase warrants (the “Warrants”), which represents 100% warrant coverage. The Company received a total of $2,488,000 in gross proceeds from the offerings, after deducting the 12.5% original issue discount, before deducting offering expenses and commissions, including the placement agent’s commission of $241,270 (10% of the gross proceeds less $7,500 paid to its legal counsel) and fees related to the offering of the Debentures of $93,530. The Company also agreed to issue to the placement agent, as additional compensation, 349,876 common stock purchase warrants exercisable at $2.00 per share (the “PA Warrants”).

The Debentures mature in January 2022 on the one year anniversary, subject to a six-month extension at the Company’s option. The Debentures bear interest at 8% per annum payable quarterly, subject to an increase in case of an event of default as provided for therein. The Debentures are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”) at any time following the date of issuance at the Purchasers’ option at a conversion price of $1.60 per share, subject to certain adjustments. The Debentures are subject to mandatory conversion in the event the Company closes an equity offering of at least $5,000,000 resulting in the listing of the Common Stock on a national securities exchange. The Debentures rank senior to all existing and future indebtedness of the Company and its subsidiaries, except for approximately $95,000 of outstanding senior indebtedness. In addition, the Debentures rank pari-passu with, and amounts owing thereunder shall be paid concurrently with, payments owing pursuant to and in connection with that certain offering by the Company of 12.5% Original Issue Discount Senior Subordinated Secured Convertible Debentures due May 28, 2021 consummated in May and June 2020 in the aggregate principal amount of $2,953,125. The Company may prepay the Debentures at any time at a premium as provided for therein.

The Warrants are exercisable for three years from the dates of the Purchase Agreements at an exercise price of $2.00 per share, subject to certain adjustments.

The Company’s obligations under the Purchase Agreement and the Debentures are secured by a first priority lien on all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries pursuant to Security Agreements, dated January 5, 2021 and January 20, 2021 (the “Security Agreements”) by and among the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, and the Purchasers, subject to certain existing senior liens. The Company’s obligations under the Debentures are guaranteed by the Company’s subsidiaries.

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of the Company, including, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, covenants that restrict the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries, without the prior written consent of the Debenture holders, to incur additional indebtedness, including further advances under a certain preexisting secured loan, and repay outstanding indebtedness, create or permit liens on assets, repurchase stock, pay dividends or enter into transactions with affiliates. The Debentures contain customary events of default, including, but not limited to, failure to observe covenants under the Debentures, defaults on other specified indebtedness, loss of admission to trading on OTCQB or another applicable trading market, and occurrence of certain change of control events. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, an amount equal to 130% of the principal, accrued but unpaid interest, and other amounts owing under each Debenture will immediately come due and payable at the election of each Purchaser, and all amounts due under the Debentures will bear interest at an increased rate.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Purchasers have certain participation rights in future equity offerings by the Company or any of its subsidiaries after the closing, subject to customary exceptions. The Debentures and the Warrants also contain certain price protection provisions providing for adjustment of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Debentures and/or exercise of the Warrants and the conversion or exercise price in case of future dilutive offerings.

In February 2021, the holder of a $250,000 November 2020 promissory note elected to convert the $250,000 note, plus accrued interest of $2,430, into $283,984 principal amount of Debentures (including 12.5% Original Issue Discount of $31,554) based on the same terms as those issued in January 2021 (described above), plus 177,490 Warrants.

We have incurred a total of $1,254,779 of debt costs related to the issuance of the 2021 Debentures, including commissions, costs and fees of $334,800. We have also recorded a cost related to the fair value of the placement agent warrants of $919,979 (see Note 9).

Warrants Recorded as Derivative Liabilities

Series D Preferred Stock Warrants

The Company identified embedded features in the warrants issued with Series D Preferred Stock in 2019 and 2020 which caused the warrants to be classified as a derivative liability. These embedded features included the right for the holders to request for the Company to cash settle the warrants to the holder by paying to the holder an amount of cash equal to the Black-Scholes value of the remaining unexercised portion of the warrants on the date of the consummation of a fundamental transaction, as defined in the warrant instrument. The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company treat the whole instrument as liability and record the fair value of the instrument as a derivative as of the inception date of the instrument and to adjust the fair value of the instrument as of each subsequent balance sheet date.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company recorded other income of $478,295, respectively, related to the change in the fair value of the derivative. The fair value of the embedded derivative was $3,812,098 as of March 31, 2021, determined using the Black Scholes model based on a risk-free interest rate of 0.35% - 0.635%, an expected term of 3 – 4.1 years, an expected volatility of 209 – 308% and a 0% dividend yield.

On January 5, 2021, pursuant to an agreement with the holder, 133,341 Series D warrants were cancelled. We have reclassified the $373,070 derivative value of the warrants to paid in capital upon extinguishment.

Convertible Debenture Warrants and Placement Agent Warrants

The Company identified embedded features in the warrants issued with the convertible debt and the placement agent warrants in 2020 and 2021 (see Note 7) and which caused the warrants to be classified as a derivative liability. These embedded features included the right for the holders to request for the Company to cash settle the warrants to the holder by paying to the holder an amount of cash equal to the Black-Scholes value of the remaining unexercised portion of the warrants on the date of the consummation of a fundamental transaction, as defined in the warrant instrument. The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company treat the whole instrument as liability and record the fair value of the instrument as a derivative as of the inception date of the instrument and to adjust the fair value of the instrument as of each subsequent balance sheet date.

As of the issuance date of the 2021 Debenture warrants, the Company determined a fair value of $5,040,080 for the 1,926,865 warrants. The fair value of the warrants was determined using the Black-Scholes Model based on a risk-free interest rate of 0.17% - 0.19%, an expected term of 3 years, an expected volatility of 215% - 216% and a 0% dividend yield. Of this amount, $1,454,097 was recorded as debt discount (see Note 7) and $3,585,983 was charged to expense as initial derivative expense.

As of the issuance date of the 2021 placement agent warrants, the Company determined a fair value of $919,979 for the 349,876 warrants. The fair value of the warrants was determined using the Black-Scholes Model based on a risk-free interest rate of 0.17% - 0.19%, an expected term of 3 years, an expected volatility of 215% and a 0% dividend yield. The value of $919,979 has been recorded as a debt discount for debt cost (see Note 7).

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company recorded other income of $150,326 related to the change in the fair value of the derivative. The fair value of the embedded derivative was $12,684,266 as of March 31, 2021, determined using the Black Scholes model based on a risk-free interest rate of 0.16% - 0.35%, an expected term of 2.16 – 2.85 years, an expected volatility of 212% - 220% and a 0% dividend yield.

NOTE 10 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Although not a party to any proceedings or claims at March 31, 2021, the Company may be subject to legal proceedings and claims from time-to-time arising out of our operations in the ordinary course of business.

Leases:

On March 31, 2019, the Company entered into a sublease with a related party (see Note 11) for its current corporate headquarters. The sublease expires in November 2022. Monthly lease payments increased from $7,307 to $7,535 in April 2021 and continue at that rate for the remainder of the lease.

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02: “Leases (Topic 842)” whereby lessees need to recognize almost all leases on their balance sheet as a right of use asset and a corresponding lease liability. The Company adopted this standard as of January 1, 2019 using the effective date method. We calculated the present value of the remaining lease payment stream using our incremental effective borrowing rate of 10%. We initially recorded a right to use asset and corresponding lease liability amounting to $269,054 on March 31, 2019. The right to use asset and the corresponding lease liability are being equally amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining term of the lease.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, lease costs amounted to $37,582 which includes base lease costs of $21,921 and common area and other expenses of $15,661. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, lease costs amounted to $37,910 which includes base lease costs of $21,234 and common area and other expenses of $16,676. All costs were expensed during the periods and included in general and administrative expenses on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

	March 31,2021
Operating office lease	$269,054
Less accumulated reduction	(146,757)

COVID-19 Uncertainty:

In late 2019, an outbreak of COVID-19 was first reported in Wuhan, China. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a global pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in the implementation of significant governmental measures, including lockdowns, closures, quarantines and travel bans around the world aimed at controlling the spread of the virus. Businesses are also taking precautions, including requiring employees to work remotely or take leave, imposing travel restrictions and temporarily closing their facilities. Initial unemployment numbers have spiked. Uncertainties regarding the impact of COVID-19 on economic conditions are likely to result in sustained market turmoil and reduced demand for employees, which in its turn has had a negative impact on the recruitment and staffing industry. According to a June 2020 report from CEO. Today, the U.S. staffing industry, which previously boasted a market size of $152 billion fell to roughly $119 billion since the COVID-19 outbreak; bringing it down to its lowest level since 2013. This represents a 21% decrease from 2019.

To date the economic impact of COVID-19 has resulted in certain reductions in the Company’s business and the Company has devoted efforts to shifting its focus in areas of hiring. As of the date of this filing, to the Company’s knowledge, no customer of the Company has gone out of business nor have any counterparties attempted to assert the existence of a force majeure clause, which excuses contractual performance. Because we depend on continued demand for recruitment services, a downturn in the recruitment and staffing industry would have a material adverse impact on our business and results of operations.

While to date the Company has not been required to stop operating, management is evaluating its use of its office space, virtual meetings and the like. We have reduced certain billing rates to respond to the current economic climate. Additionally, while we have experienced, and could continue to experience, a loss of clients as the result of the pandemic, we expect that the impact of such attrition would be mitigated by the addition of new clients resulting from our continued efforts to adjust the Company’s operations to address changes in the recruitment industry. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will impact our operations, ability to obtain financing or future financial results is uncertain at this time. Due to the effects of COVID-19, the Company took steps to streamline certain expenses, such as temporarily cutting certain executive compensation packages by approximately 20%. Management also worked to reduce unnecessary marketing expenditures and worked to improve staff and human capital expenditures, while maintaining overall workforce levels. The Company expects but cannot guarantee that demand for its recruiting solutions will improve later in 2021, as certain clients re-open or accelerate their hiring initiatives, and new clients utilize our services. The Company does not expect reductions made in the second quarter of 2020 due to COVID-19 will inhibit its ability to meet client demand. Overall, management is focused on effectively positioning the Company for a rebound in hiring which we expect later in 2021. Ultimately, the recovery may be delayed and the economic conditions may worsen. The Company continues to closely monitor the confidence of its recruiter users and customers, and their respective job requirement load through offline discussions and the Company’s Recruiter Index survey.

NOTE 12 — BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

Scouted Asset Purchase

Effective January 31, 2021, the Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, acquired all assets of RLJ Talent Consulting, Inc., d/b/a Scouted, (“Scouted”) (the “Scouted Asset Purchase”). As consideration for the Scouted Asset Purchase, Scouted shareholders are entitled to a total of 560,408 shares of our restricted Common Stock (valued at $1,625,183 based on a $2.90 per share acquisition date price), of which 82,877 shares of stock will be held in reserve and are recorded as contingent consideration, a current liability in the accompanying financial statements, and an additional amount of $180,000 in cash consideration for a total purchase price of approximately $1.8 million. The Scouted Asset Purchase will be accounted for as a business acquisition. The assets acquired in the Scouted Asset Purchase consist primarily of sales and client relationships, contracts, intellectual property, partnership and vendor agreements and certain other assets (the “Scouted Assets”), along with a de minimis amount of other assets.

The Company is utilizing the Scouted Assets to expand its video hiring solutions and curated talent solutions, through its Recruiting Solutions subsidiary.

The acquisition is accounted for by the Company in accordance with the acquisition method of accounting pursuant to ASC 805 “Business Combinations” and pushdown accounting is applied to record the fair value of the assets acquired on Recruiting Solutions. Under this method, the purchase price is allocated to the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. Any excess of the amount paid over the estimated fair values of the identifiable net assets acquired will be allocated to goodwill.

The following is a summary of the estimated fair value of the assets acquired at the date of acquisition:

Intangible assets, including sales and client relationships, contracts, intellectual property, partnership and vendor agreements and certain other assets	$1,805,183

As consideration for the Upsider Purchase, Upsider’s shareholders will receive net cash of $69,983 and a total of 807,734 shares of our common stock (the “Consideration Shares”) (valued at $2,544,362, based on a $3.15 per share acquisition date price), of which 129,851 of the Consideration Shares will be held in reserve and are recorded as a current liability, contingent consideration in the accompanying financial statements. The shareholders of Upsider may also receive earn-out consideration of up to $1,394,760, based on the attainment of specifictargets during the six months following closing. We have recorded the fair value of the contingent earn-out consideration of $1,325,003 at March 31, 2021. The total purchase price is approximately $3.9 million. The assets acquired in the APA consist primarily of sales and client relationships, contracts, intellectual property, partnership and vendor agreements and a de minimis amount of other assets. The Company is utilizing Upsider’s machine learning artificial intelligence to provide a more predictive and efficient recruiting tool that enhances our current technology.

The Company also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with Upsider (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). The Registration Rights Agreement provides that following the Six-Month Anniversary (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), and for a period of five years thereafter, Upsider shall have the ability, on three occasions, to demand that Company shall file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement on Form S-1 or Form S-3, pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, to register the Consideration Shares. Additionally, pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, for a period of three years following the Six-Month Anniversary, whenever the Company proposes to register the issuance or sale of any of its Common Stock or its own account or otherwise, and the registration form to be used may be used for the registration of the Consideration Shares.

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

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”). In addition to historical information, this discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including but not limited to those set forth under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).

For purposes of this Quarterly Report, “Recruiter.com,” “we,” “our,” “us,” or similar references refers to Recruiter.com Group, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, unless the context requires otherwise.

Overview

Recruiter.com Group, Inc. (“we,” “the Company”, “Recruiter.com”, “us”, “our”) operates an on-demand recruiting platform aiming to disrupt the $120 billion recruiting and staffing industry. We combine an online hiring platform with the world’s largest network of over 28,000 small and independent recruiters. Businesses of all sizes recruit talent faster using the Recruiter.com platform, which is powered by virtual teams of Recruiters On Demand and Video and Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) job-matching technology.

Our website, www.Recruiter.com, provides employees seeking to hire access to over 28,000 independent recruiters and utilizes an innovative web platform, with integrated AI-driven candidate to job matching and video screening software to more easily and quickly source qualified talent.

We help businesses accelerate and streamline their recruiting and hiring processes by providing on-demand recruiting services. We leverage our expert network of recruiters to place recruiters on a project basis, aided by cutting edge AI-based candidate sourcing, and matching and video screening technologies. We operate a cloud-based scalable SaaS-enabled marketplace platform for professional hiring, which provides prospective employers access to a network of thousands of independent recruiters from across the country and worldwide, with a diverse talent sourcing skillset that includes information technology, accounting, finance, sales, marketing, operations and healthcare specializations.

Through our Recruiting.com Solutions division, we also provide consulting and staffing, and full-time placement services to employers which leverages our platform and rounds out our services.

Our mission is to grow our most collaborative and connective global platform to connect recruiters and employers and become the preferred solution for hiring specialized talent.

We generate revenue from the following activities:

●

The costs of our revenue primarily consist of employee costs, third-party staffing costs and other fees, outsourced recruiter fees and commissions based on a percentage of Recruiting Solutions gross margin.

Our results of operations and financial condition may be impacted positively and negatively by certain general macroeconomic and industry wide conditions, such as the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The consequences of the pandemic and impact on the U.S. and global economies continue to evolve and the full extent of the impact is uncertain as of the date of this filing. The pandemic has had a detrimental effect on many recruitment technology companies and on the general employment and staffing industry. If the recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic is not robust, the impact could be prolonged and severe. While to date the Company has not been required to stop operating, management is evaluating its use of its office space, virtual meetings and the like. We have reduced certain billing rates to respond to the current economic climate. Additionally, while we have experienced, and could continue to experience, a loss of clients as the result of the pandemic, we expect that the impact of such attrition would be mitigated by the addition of new clients resulting from our continued efforts to adjust the Company’s operations to address changes in the recruitment industry. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will impact our operations, ability to obtain financing or future financial results is uncertain at this time. Due to the effects of COVID-19, the Company took steps to streamline certain expenses, such as temporarily cutting certain executive compensation packages by approximately 20%. Management also worked to reduce unnecessary marketing expenditures and worked to improve staff and human capital expenditures, while maintaining overall workforce levels. The Company expects but cannot guarantee that demand for its recruiting solutions will improve later in 2021, as certain clients re-open or accelerate their hiring initiatives, and new clients utilize our services. The Company does not expect reductions made in the second quarter of 2020 due to COVID-19 will inhibit its ability to meet client demand. Overall, management is focused on effectively positioning the Company for a rebound in hiring which we expect later in 2021. Ultimately, the recovery may be delayed and the economic conditions may worsen. The Company continues to closely monitor the confidence of its recruiter users and customers, and their respective job requirement load through offline discussions and the Company’s Recruiter Index survey.

Quarter Overview

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended March 31, 2021 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2020:

Revenue

The Company had revenue of $3,164,545 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021, as compared to $2,313,123 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020, representing an increase of $851,422 or 36.8%. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in our Recruiters on Demand business of 418% due to significant growth in new customers, some of which we acquired, on July 1, 2020. We also had an increase in our Consulting and Staffing business of 8.3% from internal growth from some of our long-term customers. The increase in revenue was offset partially by a decline in revenue from our Permanent Placement business of 71% as hiring demand was slower which we believe reflected some impact from the presidential election and the COVID-19 pandemic. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will impact our revenue in the subsequent future periods is uncertain at this time.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue was $2,254,910 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021, which included related party costs of $205,261, compared to $1,751,196 for the 2020 three-month period, representing an increase of $503,714 or 28.8% and included related party costs of $655,384. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in compensation expense to support revenue growth. Cost of revenue for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021 was primarily attributable to third party staffing costs and other fees related to the recruitment and staffing business acquired from Genesys Talent, LLC (“Genesys”), (currently the Company’s Recruiting Solutions division).

Our gross profit for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021 was $909,635, producing a gross profit margin of 28.7%. Our gross profit for the corresponding 2020 three-month period was $561,927, producing a gross profit margin of 24.3%. The increase in the gross profit margin from 2020 to 2021 reflects the shift in the mix in sales for the period as our Recruiters on Demand revenue has higher gross margins than our staffing revenue. We also had a higher margin within our Staffing business due to the more profitable mix of clients and services we provided.

Operating Expenses

We had total operating expense of $2,833,281 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021 compared to $2,416,452 in the 2020 period, an increase of $416,829 or 17.3%. This increase was primarily due to the higher general and administrative expense.

Sales and Marketing

Our sales and marketing expense for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021 was $57,543 compared to $25,243 for the corresponding three-month period in 2020, which reflects an increase in advertising and marketing expense to help drive growth in our business.

Product Development

Our product development expense for the three-months ended March 31, 2021 decreased to $70,660 from $83,093 for the corresponding period in 2020. This decrease is attributable to timing of launching new development projects. The product development expense included $57,988 and $60,979 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively paid to Recruiter.com Mauritius, Ltd, a development team employed by Recruiter.com and a related party of the Company.

Amortization of Intangibles and Impairment Expense

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2021, we incurred a non-cash amortization charge of $159,173 as compared to $159,173 for the corresponding period in 2020. The amortization expense relates to the intangible assets acquired from Genesys, now the Company’s Recruiting Solutions division.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expense for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021 includes compensation-related costs for our employees dedicated to general and administrative activities, legal fees, audit and tax fees, consultants and professional services, and general corporate expenses. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2021, our general and administrative expense was $2,545,905, including $502,407 of non-cash stock-based compensation. In 2020, for the corresponding period, our general and administrative expense was $2,148,943 including $870,722 of non-cash stock-based compensation. This increase is attributable primarily to increases in compensation supporting the growth in our Recruiters on Demand business, investor relations, legal and contractor fees of $976,167 partially offset by the decline in non-cash stock-based compensation of $368,315..

Other Income (Expense)

Other income (expense) for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021 was $4,356,420 compared to a loss of $628,080 in the corresponding 2020 period. The primary reason for the increase of $3,728,340 is due to a non-cash initial derivative expense of $3,585,983 and an increase in non-cash interest expense of $1,277,235 reflecting the debt discount and finance costs from the convertible note financings completed in May and June of 2020 and January of 2021. The net loss was offset partially by non-cash income of $1,193,709 resulting from a change in the fair value of the derivative liability from our outstanding warrants. As our common stock price increases, we incur an expense and contrarily if our common stock decreases, we recognize other income.

Net Income (Loss)

For the three-months ended March 31, 2021, we had a net loss of $6,280,066 compared to a net loss of $2,482,605 during the corresponding three-month period in 2020.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The following discussion and analysis includes both financial measures in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or GAAP, as well as non-GAAP financial measures. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally included or excluded in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed as supplemental to, and should not be considered as alternatives to net income, operating income, and cash flow from operating activities, liquidity or any other financial measures. They may not be indicative of the historical operating results of Recruiter nor are they intended to be predictive of potential future results. Investors should not consider non-GAAP financial measures in isolation or as substitutes for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Our management uses and relies on EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that both management and shareholders benefit from referring to the following non-GAAP financial measures in planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. Our management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating its financial and operational decision making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparison. Our management recognizes that the non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations because of the described excluded items.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as earnings (or loss) from continuing operations before the items in the table below. Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure of our operating performance because it allows management, investors and analysts to evaluate and assess our core operating results from period-to-period after removing the impact of items of a non-operational nature that affect comparability.

We have included a reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. We believe that providing the non-GAAP financial measures, together with the reconciliation to GAAP, helps investors make comparisons between the Company and other companies. In making any comparisons to other companies, investors need to be aware that companies use different non-GAAP measures to evaluate their financial performance. Investors should pay close attention to the specific definition being used and to the reconciliation between such measure and the corresponding GAAP measure provided by each company under applicable SEC rules.

The following table presents a reconciliation of net loss to Adjusted EBITDA:

	Three months Ended March 31,
	2021	2020
Net loss	$(6,280,066)	$(2,482,605)
Interest expense and finance cost, net	1,427,588	44,206
Depreciation & amortization	159,461	159,461
EBITDA (loss)	(4,693,017)	(2,278,938)
Bad debt expense	16,963	11,250
Forgiveness of debt income	(24,925)	-
Initial derivative expense	3,585,983	-
Loss (gain) on change in fair value of derivative	(628,621)	565,088
Stock-based compensation	502,407	870,722
Accrued stock-based compensation	152,500	70,250
Adjusted EBITDA (Loss)	$ (1,088,710)	$(761,628)

Liquidity and Capital Resources

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, net cash used in operating activities was $1,324,096, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $93,227 for the corresponding 2020 period. The increase in cash used in operating activities was attributable to the increase in operating expenses outlined previously supporting the investments to grow our business. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, net loss (after adjusting for non-cash items) was $1,379,764. Accounts receivable increased by $857,781 and prepaid expenses decreased by $28,923. Accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and deferred revenue decreased in total by $867,563. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, net loss (after adjusting for non-cash items) was $825,322. Accounts receivable and prepaid expenses together increased by $16,147. Accounts payable, accrued liabilities, other liabilities and deferred revenue in total decreased by $748,242.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, net cash used in investing activities was $249,983 due to cash used for acquisitions, compared to $14,955 of cash provided by investing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2020, which resulted primarily from the sale of marketable securities.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, net cash provided by financing activities was $2,136,529. The principal factors were $2,153,200 from the sale of convertible notes, net of original issue discounts and offering costs. In the 2020 period, financing activities provided $73,553, primarily due to $180,778 from advances from the sale of receivables and $25,000 from a deposit from the sale of preferred stock, partially offset from the repayments of the sale of future revenue.

As of May 10, 2021, the Company had approximately $521,000 in cash on hand. Based on this cash on hand, the Company does not have the capital resources to meet its working capital needs for the next 12 months. We are also party to two lines of credit with current outstanding balances of $0. Advances under each of these lines of credit mature within 12 months of the advances. Availability under these two lines of credit in the amount of $91,300 at September 30, 2020 has been suspended in 2020 due to COVID-19 uncertainty.

The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred net losses and negative operating cash flows annually. For the three-months ended March 31, 2021 and the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company recorded a net loss of $6,280,066 and $2,482,605, respectively. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenue sufficient to cover its operating costs and allow it to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable.

The Company’s historical operating results indicate substantial doubt exists related to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. We can give no assurances that any additional capital that we are able to obtain, if any, will be sufficient to meet our needs, or that any such financing will be obtainable on acceptable terms. If we are unable to obtain adequate capital, we could be forced to cease operations or substantially curtail our commercial activities. These conditions raise substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

To date, private placement offerings have been our primary source of liquidity and we expect to fund future operations through additional securities offerings. We had also entered into arrangements with factoring companies to receive advances against certain future accounts receivable in order to supplement our liquidity. However, the COVID-19 pandemic and debt covenants under outstanding debt and other financing arrangements have affected the Company’s ability to receive advances against its future accounts receivable as discussed in more detail below.

Senior Subordinated Secured Convertible Debentures

In May and June 2020, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, effective May 28, 2020 (the “Purchase Agreement”) with several accredited investors (the “Purchasers”). Four of the investors had previously invested in the Company’s preferred stock. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company sold to the Purchasers a total of (i) $2,953,125 in the aggregate principal amount of 12.5% Original Issue Discount Senior Subordinated Secured Convertible Debentures (the “Debentures”), and (ii) 1,845,703 common stock purchase warrants (the “Warrants”), which represents 100% warrant coverage. The Company received a total of $2,226,000 in net proceeds from the offering, after deducting the 12.5% original issue discount of $328,125, offering expenses and commissions, including the placement agent’s commission and fees of $295,000 and reimbursement of the placement agent’s and lead investor’s legal fees and the Company’s legal fees in the aggregate amount of $100,000 and escrow agent fees of $4,000. The Company also agreed to issue to the placement agent, as additional compensation, 369,141 common stock purchase warrants exercisable at $2.00 per share.

The Debentures mature on May 28, 2021, subject to a six-month extension at the Company’s option. The Debentures bear interest at 8% per annum payable quarterly, subject to an increase in case of an event of default as provided for therein. The Debentures are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at any time following the date of issuance at the purchasers’ option at a conversion price of $1.60 per share, subject to certain adjustments. The Debentures are subject to mandatory conversion in the event the Company closes an equity offering of at least $5,000,000 resulting in the listing of the Company’s common stock on a national securities exchange. The Debentures rank senior to all existing and future indebtedness of the Company and its subsidiaries, except for approximately $508,000 of outstanding senior indebtedness. The Company may prepay the Debentures at any time at a premium as provided for therein.

The Company’s obligations under the Debentures are secured by a first priority lien on all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, subject to certain existing senior liens. The Company’s obligations under the Debentures are guaranteed by the Company’s subsidiaries.

The Securities Purchase Agreement for the Debentures and Warrants contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of the Company, including, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, covenants that restrict the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries, without the prior written consent of the Debenture holders, to incur additional indebtedness, including further advances under a certain preexisting secured loan, and repay outstanding indebtedness, create or permit liens on assets, repurchase stock, pay dividends or enter into transactions with affiliates. The Debentures contain customary events of default, including, but not limited to, failure to observe covenants under the Debentures, defaults on other specified indebtedness, loss of admission to trading on OTCQB or another applicable trading market, and occurrence of certain change of control events. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, an amount equal to 130% of the principal, accrued but unpaid interest, and other amounts owing under each Debenture will immediately come due and payable at the election of each Purchaser, and all amounts due under the Debentures will bear interest at an increased rate.

On January 5, 2021, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, effective January 5, 2021 (the “Purchase Agreement”), with two accredited investors (the “Purchasers”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to sell to the Purchasers a total of (i) $562,500 in the aggregate principal amount of 12.5% Original Issue Discount Senior Subordinated Secured Convertible Debentures (the “Debentures”), and (ii) 351,562 common stock purchase warrants (the “Warrants”), which represents 100% warrant coverage. The Company received a total of $500,000 in gross proceeds from the offering, taking into account the 12.5% original issue discount, before deducting offering expenses and commissions, including the placement agent’s commission of $50,000 (10% of the gross proceeds) and fees related to the offering of the Debentures of approximately $40,000. The Company also agreed to issue to the placement agent, as additional compensation, 70,313 common stock purchase warrants exercisable at $2.00 per share (the “PA Warrants”). Gunnar acted as placement agent for the offering of the Debentures.

On January 20, 2021, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, (the “Purchase Agreement”) with eighteen accredited investors (the “Purchasers”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to sell to the Purchasers a total of (i) $2,236,500 in the aggregate principal amount of 12.5% Original Issue Discount Senior Subordinated Secured Convertible Debentures (the “Debentures”), and (ii) 1,397,813 common stock purchase warrants (the “Warrants”), which represents 100% warrant coverage. Gunnar acted as placement agent for the offering of the Debentures. The Company received a total of $1,988,000 in gross proceeds from the offering, taking into account the 12.5% original issue discount, before deducting offering expenses and commissions, including Gunnar’s commission of $191,270 (10% of the gross proceeds minus $7,500 paid to Gunnar’s counsel) and additional fees related to the offering of the Debentures of approximately $50,500. The Company also agreed to issue to Gunnar, as additional compensation, 279,563 common stock purchase warrants exercisable at $2.00 per share (the “PA Warrants”).

The Debentures mature on January 5th and January 20th, 2022 respectively, subject to a six-month extension at the Company’s option. The Debentures bear interest at 8% per annum payable quarterly, subject to an increase in case of an event of default as provided for therein. The Debentures are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Common Stock”) at any time following the date of issuance at the Purchasers’ option at a conversion price of $1.60 per share, subject to certain adjustments. The Debentures are subject to mandatory conversion in the event the Company closes an equity offering of at least $5,000,000 resulting in the listing of the Common Stock on a national securities exchange. The Debentures rank senior to all existing and future indebtedness of the Company and its subsidiaries, except for approximately $95,000 of outstanding senior indebtedness. In addition the Debentures rank pari-passu with, and amounts owing thereunder shall be paid concurrently with, payments owing pursuant to and in connection with that certain offering by the Company of 12.5% Original Issue Discount Senior Subordinated Secured Convertible Debentures due May 28, 2021 consummated in May and June 2020 in the aggregate principal amount of $2,953,125. The Company may prepay the Debentures at any time at a premium as provided for therein.

The Warrants are exercisable for three years from January 5th and January 20th, 2021 respectively at an exercise price of $2.00 per share, subject to certain adjustments.

The Company’s obligations under the Purchase Agreement and the Debentures are secured by a first priority lien on all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries pursuant to a Security Agreement, dated January 5th and January 20th, 2021 respectively (the “Security Agreement”) by and among the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, and the Purchasers, subject to certain existing senior liens. The Company’s obligations under the Debentures are guaranteed by the Company’s subsidiaries.

In order to meet our working capital needs for the next 12 months, we expect to finance our operations through additional debt or equity offerings. We may not be able to complete these or any other financing transactions on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all. Additionally, any future sales of securities to finance our operations will likely dilute existing shareholders’ ownership. The Company cannot guarantee when or if it will generate positive cash flow. If we are unable to raise sufficient capital to fund our operations, it is likely that we will be forced to reduce or cease operations.

Critical Accounting Estimates and Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“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 period. Actual results and outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions. Included in these estimates are assumptions used to estimate collection of accounts receivable, fair value of available for sale securities, fair value of assets acquired in an asset acquisition and the estimated useful life of assets acquired, fair value of derivative liabilities, fair value of securities issued for acquisitions, fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the business combination, fair value of intangible assets and goodwill, valuation of initial right of use assets and corresponding lease liabilities, deferred income tax asset valuation allowances, and valuation of stock based compensation expense.

Revenue Recognition

Policy

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”), Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). Revenues are recognized when control is transferred to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods. Revenue recognition is evaluated through the following five steps: (i) identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer; (ii) identification of the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determination of the transaction price; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognition of revenue when or as a performance obligation is satisfied.

We generate revenue from the following activities:

●

Career Solutions: We provide services to assist job seekers with their career advancement. These services include a resume distribution service which involves promoting these job seekers’ profiles and resumes to assist with their procuring employment, and upskilling and training. Our resume distribution service allows a job seeker to upload his/her resume to our database, which we then distribute to our network of recruiters on the Platform. We earn revenue from a one-time flat fee for this service. We also offer a recruiter certification program which encompasses our recruitmentrelated training content, which we make accessible through our online learning management system. Customers of the recruiter certification program use a self-managed system to navigate through a digital course of study. Upon completion of the program, we issue a certificate of completion and make available a digital badge to certify their achievement for display on their online recruiter profile on the Platform. For approximately the four months following March 31, 2020, the Company provided the recruiter certification program free in response to COVID-19. We partner with Careerdash, a high-quality training company, to provide Recruiter.com Academy, an immersive training experience for career changers.

Revenues as presented on the statement of operations represent services rendered to customers less sales adjustments and allowances.

Marketplace Solutions revenues are recognized either on a gross basis when the advertising is placed and displayed or when lead generation activities and online publications are completed, which is the point at which the performance obligations are satisfied. Payments for marketing and publishing are typically due within 30 days of completion of services.

Sales tax collected is recorded on a net basis and is excluded from revenue.

Goodwill

Goodwill is comprised of the purchase price of business combinations in excess of the fair value assigned at acquisition to the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized. The Company tests goodwill for impairment for its reporting units on an annual basis, or when events occur or circumstances indicate the fair value of a reporting unit is below its carrying value.

The Company performs its annual goodwill and impairment assessment on December 31st of each year or earlier if facts and circumstances indicate that an impairment may have occurred.

Long-lived assets

Derivative Instruments

The Company’s derivative financial instruments consist of derivatives related to the warrants issued with the sale of our preferred stock in 2020 and 2019 and the warrants issued with the sale of convertible notes in 2020 and subsequently in January 2021. The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that we record the derivatives at their fair values as of the inception date of the debt agreements and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. Any change in fair value is recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense at each balance sheet date. If the fair value of the derivatives was higher at the subsequent balance sheet date, we recorded a non-operating, non-cash charge. If the fair value of the derivatives was lower at the subsequent balance sheet date, we recorded non-operating, non-cash income. Upon the determination that an instrument is no longer subject to derivative accounting, the fair value of the derivative instrument at the date of such determination will be reclassified to paid in capital.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for all stock-based payment awards made to employees, directors and others based on their fair values and recognizes such awards as compensation expense over the vesting period for employees or service period for non-employees using the straight-line method over the requisite service period for each award as required by FASB ASC Topic No. 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation. If there are any modifications or cancellations of the underlying vested or unvested stock-based awards, we maybe required to accelerate, increase or cancel any remaining unearned stock-based compensation expense, or record additional expense for vested stock-based awards. Future stock-based compensation expense and unearned stock- based compensation may increase to the extent we grant additional stock options or other stock-based awards.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

There have not been any recent changes in accounting pronouncements and ASU issued by the FASB that are of significance or potential significance to the Company except as disclosed below.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Not applicable.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, with the assistance of other members of our management, have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a – 15(e) and 15d – 15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on such evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer had concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to material weaknesses in internal controls over financial reporting.

Although a material weakness identified as of December 31, 2019 (the lack of sufficient independent directors on our Board to maintain audit and other committees consistent with proper corporate governance standards) had been remediated as of December 31, 2020, management has determined that, as of March 31, 2021, there were still material weaknesses in both the design and effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness in internal controls is a deficiency in internal control, or combination of control deficiencies, that adversely affects our ability to initiate, authorize, record, process, or report external financial data reliably in accordance with GAAP such that there is more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected. In the course of making our assessment of the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting, we identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. Specifically, we lack a sufficient number of employees to properly segregate duties and provide adequate monitoring during the process leading to and including the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

The Company anticipates that, prior to December 31, 2021, it will be able to hire a sufficient number of employees to remediate the material weakness identified in the previous paragraph.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2021 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

As of the date of this Quarterly Report, there are no material pending legal or governmental proceedings relating to our Company or properties to which we are a party, and, to our knowledge, there are no material proceedings to which any of our directors, executive officers or affiliates are a party adverse to us or which have a material interest adverse to us.

ITEM 1A. - RISK FACTORS

Factors that could cause or contribute to differences in our future financial and operating results include those discussed in the risk factors set forth in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 along with the “Risk Factors” section of our Form S-1/A dated May 4, 2021. These risks are not the only risks that we face. Additional risks not presently known to us or that we do not currently consider significant may also have an adverse effect on the Company. If any of the risks actually occur, our business, results of operations, cash flows or financial condition could suffer.

ITEM 2 - UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

There were no unregistered sales of the Company’s equity securities during the quarter ended March 31, 2021 that were not previously reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K except as follows:

In January 2021, the Company issued 113,476 shares of its common stock upon conversion of 9,078 shares of its Series D Preferred Stock.

In January 2021, the Company issued a total of 438,553 shares of common stock pursuant to the Scouted acquisition.

In February 2021, the Company issued 550,000 shares of its common stock upon conversion of 44,000 shares of its Series D Preferred Stock.

In February 2021, the Company issued 202,988 shares of its common stock upon conversion of 16,239 shares of Series F Preferred Stock.

In March 2021, the Company issued 267,188 shares of its common stock upon conversion of 21,375 shares of its Series D Preferred Stock.

In March 2021, the Company issued 16,197 shares of its common stock upon conversion of 1,296 shares of Series F Preferred Stock.

Shares to be issued for acquisitions at March 31, 2021 include 38,978 common shares to be issued for Scouted and 677,883 common shares to be issued for Upsider.

In March 2021, we issued to our CEO, Evan Sohn, 4,063 shares of common stock as payment for $16,425 of compensation which had been accrued at December 31, 2020.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company issued 178,712 shares of its common stock upon conversion of $283,637 of convertible notes payable and related accrued interest of $2,302.

The above securities were issued in reliance on the exemption under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. These securities qualified for exemption under Section 4(a)(2) since the issuance by us did not involve a public offering. The offerings were not “public offerings” as defined in 4(a)(2) due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the transactions, manner of the issuance and number of securities issued. We did not undertake an offering in which we sold a high number of securities to a high number of investors. In addition, the investors had the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(a)(2) since they agreed to and received securities bearing a legend stating that such securities are restricted pursuant to Rule 144 of the Act. This restriction ensures that these securities would not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not be part of a “public offering”. Based on an analysis of the above factors, we have met the requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act for these transactions.

ITEM 3 - DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

None.

ITEM 4 - MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES

Not applicable.

ITEM 5 - OTHER INFORMATION

The Company entered into an agreement and closed a transaction on May 10, 2021. In lieu of filing a Current Report on Form 8-K regarding this agreement and transaction, the Company is providing disclosure in Part II, Item 5 of this Report.

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

The foregoing provides only brief descriptions of the material terms of the APA, does not purport to be a complete description of the rights and obligations of the parties thereunder, and such descriptions are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the form of the APA filed as Exhibit 10.8 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

The information set forth in Item 1.01 above is incorporated herein by reference. The Consideration Shares are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) but qualified for exemption under Section 4(a)(2) and/or Regulation D of the Securities Act. The Consideration Shares are exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act because the issuance of such securities by the Company did not involve a “public offering,” as defined in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the transaction manner of the issuance, and number of securities issued. The Company did not undertake an offering or issuance in which it issued a high number of securities to a high number of persons. In addition, OneWire did not have the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act since they agreed to, and received, securities bearing a legend stating that such securities are restricted pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act. This restriction ensures that these securities would not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not be part of a “public offering.” Based on an analysis of the above factors, the Company has met the requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
