NEW YOU, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

 

Note 1 – Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Nature of Business

New You, Inc., formerly known as The Radiant Creations Group, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Nevada on December 29, 2005. From inception, the Company's principal business activity was the acquisition and exploration of mineral resources. On June 20, 2013, following a change of control and subsequent acquisition of an exclusive license agreement, the Company changed its principal business to the development and marketing of cosmetics and over-the-counter personal enhancement products and devices. After a change in control on July 11, 2018, the Company changed its principal business to selling cannabidiol (“CBD”) hemp oil-based products through independent business owners (called “Brand Partners”).

 

The Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary New You LLC, markets and sells its products through a multi-level marketing sales opportunity.

 

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the operations of New You, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, New You LLC. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with Article 10 of Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Regulation S-X for Interim Reporting. All intercompany transactions, accounts and profits, if any, have been eliminated in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for fair statement have been included.

 

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures required by GAAP. Therefore, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the more detailed audited financial statements of New You, Inc. for the year ended December 31, 2020, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

The results for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full year, any other interim periods, or any future year or period.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) as a pandemic which continues to spread throughout the United States. We are currently negatively impacted through a reduction in sales by the outbreak of COVID-19 and the related business and travel restrictions and changes to behavior intended to reduce its spread, and continue to monitor its impact on operations, financial position, cash flows, customer purchasing trends, and the industry in general, in addition to the impact on our employees. We have concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could continue to have a negative impact on the results of operations, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles 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 could differ from those estimates. The Company’s significant estimates include estimates for future charge-backs and allowance for slow moving or obsolete inventory.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss and Income Per Share

 8 
 

Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period, without consideration for common stock equivalents. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common share equivalents outstanding for the period determined using the treasury-stock method. For purposes of this calculation, the Company currently does not have any common share equivalents; therefore, its basic and diluted net loss per share calculations is the same.

The following table presents the computation of basic and diluted net loss or income per common share:

 

   For The Three Months Ended March 31,
    2021    2020 
Historical net loss per share          
Numerator          
    Net loss   (877,500)   (964,736)
Denominator          
   Weighted-average common shares outstanding   40,780,981    33,190,726 
   Less: Weighted-average restricted shares   —      (5,381,526)
   Denominator for basic and diluted net loss per share   40,780,981    27,809,200 
Basic and diluted net loss per share  $(0.02)  $(0.03)
           

 

Potentially dilutive securities that are not included in the calculation of diluted net loss or income per share because their effect is anti-dilutive are as follows (in common equivalent shares):

 

   For The Three Months Ended March 31,
   2021  2020

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

FASB ASU No. 2019-12 Income Taxes - In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, as part of its initiative to reduce complexity in the accounting standards. The standard eliminates certain exceptions related to the approach for intra-period tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. The standard also clarifies and simplifies other aspects of the accounting for income taxes. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has adopted this guidance as of its first quarter ended March 31, 2021. Such adoption did not have an impact to the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

 

ASU 2020-06: In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. The ASU also removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception and simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2023, although early adoption is permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of this new guidance on its financial statements.

 

Note 2 – Going Concern

 

We incurred a net loss of $877,500 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and had an accumulated deficit of $8,404,515. At March 31, 2021, we had a cash balance of $19,196 and a working capital deficit of $1,647,715.

 

We have not been able to generate sufficient cash from operating activities to fund our ongoing operations. We will be required to raise additional funds through public or private financing, additional collaborative relationships or other arrangements until we are able to raise revenues to a point of positive cash flow. We are evaluating various options to further reduce our cash requirements to operate at a reduced rate, as well as options to raise additional funds, including obtaining loans and selling common stock. There is no guarantee that we will be able to generate enough revenue and/or raise capital to support operations.

 

 9 
 

Based on the above factors, substantial doubt exists about our ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the issuance of these financial statements.

 

Note 3 – Concentrations of Business and Credit Risk

 

The Company at times maintains balances in various operating accounts in excess of federally insured limits.

 

Since the Company sells its products to a large number of customers, there is no receivable or revenue concentration from customers. However, as of March 31, 2021 and 2020, one credit card processor accounted for 100% of credit card receivables.

 

The Company also made purchases from and has accounts payable to Carlsbad Naturals, LLC as described in Note 10.

 

Note 4 – Loan Receivable

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, and prior to an Exchange Agreement entered into on May 3, 2021, the Company loaned $25,000 to ST Brands. (See Note 12.) The loan is non-interest bearing and payable upon demand. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the balance was $25,000 and $0, respectively.

 

Note 5 – Equity

 

Restricted Stock Grants

 

The Company estimated the fair value of restricted stock grants at $0.50 per share based on the price at which the Company issued common shares for cash in 2019 and not based on the amount that shares were trading for on the OTC “Pink” market since shares were thinly traded on the market from August 2019 to March 31, 2021 when the equity instruments were granted. There were no grants of restricted stock to employees or consultants during the first quarter of 2021.

 

The table below summarizes the activity of the restricted stock during the three months ended March 31, 2021:

 

   Number of Shares  Weighted Average Fair Value per Share
 Non-vested as of January 1, 2021    3,343,064   $0.50 
 Granted    70,000    0.50 
 Vested    (3,413,064)   0.50 
 Forfeited    —      —   
 Non-vested as of March 31, 2021    —     $0.50 

  

For the three months ended March 31, 2021 the compensation costs include $1,801,619 of stock based compensation. No portion of the total compensation cost was capitalized. The unrecognized compensation costs as of March 31, 2021 is $0. The Company recognized stock based compensation expense using the straight line method and forfeitures are recognized as they occur. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company wrote off the balance of unamortized, non-vested restricted stock because the Board modified the terms of the grants to accelerate vesting. As a result, all outstanding share grants had fully vested as of March 31, 2021.

 

Note 6 – Commitments and Contingencies

 

Operating Lease Commitments

  

The Company leases a warehouse facility under a lease agreement that expires July 31, 2021. The Company does not have any significant capital leases.

Litigation and Claims

 

The Company may be involved in lawsuits and claims arising in the ordinary course of business from time to time. The Company reviews any such legal proceedings and claims on an ongoing basis and follows appropriate accounting guidance when making accrual and disclosure decisions. The Company establishes accruals for those contingencies where the incurrence of a loss is probable and can be reasonably estimated, and it discloses the amount accrued and the amount of a reasonably possible loss in excess of the amount accrued, if such disclosure is necessary for the Company’s financial statements not to be misleading. To estimate whether a loss contingency should be accrued by a charge to income, the Company evaluates, among other factors, the degree of probability of an unfavorable outcome and the ability to make a reasonable estimate of the amount of the loss. The Company does not record liabilities when the likelihood that the liability has been incurred is probable, but the amount cannot be reasonably estimated. Based upon present information, the Company determined that there were no matters that required an accrual as of March 31, 2021 or 2020, nor were there any asserted or unasserted material claims for which material losses are reasonably possible.

 

Note 7 – Notes Payable

 

In April 2020, the Company’s subsidiary received a non-interest bearing advance from the Small Business Administration under the Emergency Injury Disaster Loan program of $10,000. All or a portion of this loan may be forgiven if the Company satisfies certain criteria.

 

In May, 2020, the Company’s subsidiary received a Paycheck Protection Program loan in the amount of $103,958. The monthly payments on the note are deferred for a period of 6 months and the notes bear interest of 1%. Monthly payments of $5,850 will begin on December 21, 2021; however all or a portion of this loan may be forgiven if the Company satisfies certain criteria as follows:

 

The Company may apply for forgiveness of the amount due on this loan in an amount equal to the sum of the following costs incurred during the 8-week period beginning on the date of first disbursement of this loan:

 

 11 
 
a.Payroll costs
b.Any payment of interest on a covered mortgage obligation (which shall not include any prepayment of or payment of principal on a covered mortgage obligation)
c.Any payment on a covered rent obligation
d.Any covered utility payment

 

The amount of loan forgiveness shall be calculated (and may be reduced) in accordance with the requirements of the Paycheck Protection Program, including the provisions of Section 1106 of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) (P.L. 116-136). Not more than 25% of the amount forgiven can be attributable to non-payroll costs.

 

In July, 2020, the Company’s subsidiary received a Paycheck Protection Program loan in the amount of $100,000.The monthly payments on the note are deferred for a period of 6 months and the notes bear interest of 1%. Monthly payments of $5,628 will begin on January 1, 2021. The proceeds of the requested PPP Loan may be used only for business purposes permitted under the Paycheck Protection Program, including permitted payroll costs and benefits, interest on business mortgage obligations incurred before February 15, 2020, rent under a lease entered into before February 15, 2020 and utilities for which service began before February 15, 2020.

Note 9 – Beneficial Conversion Feature

 

ASC 470-20 applies to convertible securities with beneficial conversion features that must be settled in stock and to those that give the issuer a choice in settling the obligation in either stock or cash. ASC 470-20 requires that the beneficial conversion feature should be valued at the commitment date at its intrinsic value; that being the difference between the conversion price and the fair market value of the common stock into which the security is convertible, multiplied by the number of shares into which the security is convertible. This amount is recorded as a debt discount and amortized over the life of the debt. ASC 470-20 further limits this amount to the proceeds allocated to the convertible instrument.

 

The effective conversion prices were compared to the market prices on the dates of each convertible note and they were deemed to be less than the inception date fair value of the underlying common stock for the Second Convertible Note. The Company recognized a debt discount as a reduction (contra-liability) to the Second and Fourth, and Fifth Convertible Notes with an increase to paid in capital. The debt discounts are being amortized over the life of the notes.  The Company recognized financing costs for charges by the lender for original issue discounts and other applicable administrative costs, normally withheld from proceeds, which are being amortized as finance costs over the life of the loan. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the unamortized beneficial conversion feature associated with our convertible notes was $0 and $25,896, respectively.

 

During the first quarter of 2021, an active market developed for the Company’s stock. Accordingly, the Company began recording the conversion features of its convertible notes payable as embedded derivatives. As a result, the Company re-characterized the beneficial conversion feature recorded on Note 4 as a discount related to the derivative liability, resulting in a decrease to additional paid in capital in the amount of $150,000.

Note 10 - Derivatives

 

The Company assessed its convertible notes for purposes of determining the associated embedded default derivatives. The Company relied on ASC 820-10-35-37 Fair Value in Financial Instruments and ASC 815 Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. The Company uses judgment in determining the fair value of derivative liabilities at the date of issuance and at every balance sheet thereafter and in determining which valuation method is most appropriate for the instrument, the expected volatility, the implied risk-free interest rate, as well as the expected dividend rate, if any.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, the Company had convertible notes payable outstanding in which the conversion rate was variable and undeterminable. The Company determined that the embedded conversion options met the definition of a derivative. The effective conversion price was compared to the market price on the date of the note and was deemed to be less than the market value of underlying common stock at the inception of the note. The Company recognized a debt discount on the notes as a reduction (contra-liability) to the Convertible Notes Payable. The debt discounts are being amortized over the life of the notes.  The Company recognized financing costs for charges by the lender applicable administrative costs, normally withheld from proceeds, which are being amortized as finance costs over the life of the loan.

The Company evaluated the terms of the convertible notes in accordance with ASC Topic No. 815 - 40, Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Stock and determined that the underlying is indexed to the Company’s common stock. The Company determined that the conversion features meet the definition of a liability and therefore bifurcated the conversion feature and accounted for it as a separate derivative liability. The Company then evaluated the conversion feature for the embedded conversion option. Since these notes contain conversion price adjustment provisions (i.e. down round, true-up, or ratchet provisions), the Company determined that the embedded conversion options met the definition of a derivative. The Monte Carlo model was used to estimate the fair values of the embedded derivatives on the conversion features of our convertible notes. The values are based on simulating stock volatility, risk free interest rates, and the conversion stock prices on the date of measurement.

The Company is subject to significant cash penalties in the event that the Company defaults on its convertible notes. The default penalties vary based on the type of default and range from incurring a default interest rate of 22% to a penalty of 50% of the amount due, to a parity value based on the effective conversion of the note on the date of payment of the default and the maximum stock value during the period between the default date and the settlement date. The Company determined that certain of the default provisions should be bifurcated from the debt host and treated as a liability, since they involve the contingent payment of a substantial premium on the convertible notes. The Company used a Monte Carlo model that values the embedded default derivatives based on simulating the stock price, the default likelihood, and the default liability.

 

Fair Value

ASC 825-10 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 825-10 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 825-10 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:  Level 1  – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;  Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and  Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are financial instruments whose values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation. The Company’s Level 3 liabilities consist of the derivative liabilities associated with the convertible notes.  At March 31, 2021, all of the Company’s derivative liabilities were categorized as Level 3 fair value liabilities. If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.

 14 
 

Level 3 Valuation Techniques

Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.  Level 3 financial liabilities consist of the derivative liabilities for which there is no current market for these securities such that the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation.  At the date of the original transaction, we valued the convertible note that contains down round provisions using a Black-Scholes model, with the assistance of a valuation consultant, for which management understands the methodologies. This model incorporates transaction details such as the Company’s stock price, contractual terms, maturity, risk free rates, as well as assumptions about future financings, volatility, and holder behavior.  ASC 825-10 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 825-10 also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 825-10 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:  Level 1  – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;  Level 2 – Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and  Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are financial instruments whose values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation. The Company’s Level 3 liabilities consist of the derivative liabilities associated with the convertible notes.  At December 31, 2020, all of the Company’s derivative liabilities were categorized as Level 3 fair value liabilities. If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.

 

 

The following table summarizes the valuations of the default liability for each note and valuation date.

Valuation of the default liability involves subjective judgments and requires forecasting future stock price movement and estimating the probability of default and the amount of time that passes between the date of default and the date of settlement. The following table summarizes the significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of the default liability:

 

  At issuance At 3/31/21
Default probability 5% to 30% 22% to 24%
Volatility 306.4% to 310.1% 328.5% to 340.7%
Risk free rate 1.62% 0.13% to 0.20%

 

The Company used a Monte Carlo model that values the embedded default derivatives based on simulating the stock price, the default likelihood, and the default liability.

Note 12 – Subsequent Events

 

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued.

 

On May 3, 2021, we entered into an Exchange Agreement with ST Brands, Inc. (STB), a Wyoming corporation, and the shareholders of STB. Under the Agreement, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding common stock of STB in exchange for our issuance to the Shareholders of STB, shares of our newly-designated Series A Preferred Stock. The class of Series A Preferred Stock consists of 4,500,000 shares of preferred stock convertible to our common stock at a ratio of 100 for 1. As a whole, all designated shares of Series A Preferred are convertible to approximately the cumulative equivalent of ninety percent (90%) of our issued and outstanding share capital as of May 3, 2021. The Agreement contemplates that the Company’s existing business and assets of the Company will remain and continue under the Company’s ownership following the closing of the Closing.

 

Shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be issuable to the Shareholders under the Agreement upon each of several contemplated Closings, each Closing to take place upon our receipt of audited financial statements reflecting certain levels of annual revenue earned by STB and/or Acquired Material Businesses, as defined in the Exchange Agreement and as described in Exhibit B in the Agreement. Up to 4,500,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock may be issued to the Shareholders, with all Closings to occur on or before April 30, 2022. Under the Initial Closing on the date of the Agreement, we issued 500,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to the Shareholders of STB. The issuance was exempt under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act as the transaction did not involve a public offering.

 

On May 6, 2021, pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company appointed Jason Frankovich to serve as the new Executive Chairman of the Board.

 

On May 6, 2021, we filed a Certificate of Designation for our newly-designated Series A Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada (the “Secretary of State”).

New You, Inc. through its wholly owned subsidiary, New You LLC, markets and sells its products through a multi-level marketing and direct sales opportunity afforded to independent business owners called “Brand Partners.” Commissions are earned on product sales to Brand Partners and their customers at a rate of 10% for every transaction, plus a specified spread on recurring sales. Brand Partners earn a 5% commission on sales by other team members at lower levels up to nine levels below the Brand Partner. Brand Partners can earn an additional bonus for customer sales and team sales. The team bonus is $400 for each time the team bonus volume reaches a certain amount in a 30 day period. Brand Partners can also earn an initial bonus of 20% of the transaction value for qualifying Brand Partners in the Brand Partner’s first 30 days. There is a risk that Brand Partners may find it difficult to sell in a network marketing environment. Brand Partners may also find it difficult to sell CBD related products due to the uncertainty surrounding FDA regulations of CBD and hemp related products. Lastly, public perception of CBD products may be negative, as such products are derived from the Hemp plant. The Company does not hold any patents or trademarks and, as a result, may be vulnerable to competition from other companies offering very similar products and product brands The Company purchases inventory from Carlsbad Naturals, LLC. Carlsbad Naturals, LLC is a principal shareholder of New You, Inc., and is owned by a principal shareholder of New You, Inc. As a result, we are dependent on a related party for product inventory and do not have a broad base of unaffiliated suppliers. The officers and directors of the Company own 34.27% of the outstanding common shares. Accordingly, management will have a determinative influence on matters requiring shareholder approval.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) as a pandemic which continues to spread throughout the United States. We are currently negatively impacted through a reduction in sales by the outbreak of COVID-19 and the related business and travel restrictions and changes to behavior intended to reduce its spread, and continue to monitor its impact on operations, financial position, cash flows, customer purchasing trends, and the industry in general, in addition to the impact on our employees. We have concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could continue to have a negative impact on the results of operations, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Results of Operations

 

Revenues. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we generated revenues of $333,653, a decrease of $197,869 compared to revenues of $531,522 for the three months ending March 31, 2020. The decrease was primarily due to the COVID-19 shutdown. At this stage in our development, revenues are not yet sufficient to cover ongoing operating expenses.

 

Gross Profit. Our gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $274,403, a decrease of $175,277 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020. Our gross margin percentage for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was 82%, compared to 85% for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The change in gross margin in the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020 was due to decreased sales of higher margin items during the period..

 

Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general, and administrative expenses (“SG&A expenses”) for the three months ended March 31, 2021 were $2,173,333, an increase of $791,650 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2020. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the SG&A expenses included: (i) a reduction in commission expenses; (ii) a reduction in payroll expenses; and (iii) and an decrease in other SG&A expenses. Non-cash stock based compensation for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $1,801,619, compared to $764,916 in stock based compensation for the three months March 31, 2020.

Operating Loss. We realized an operating loss of $1,898,930 before interest and income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to operating loss of $932,003 for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

 

Interest Expense. Interest expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $253,624 compared to $31,933 for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The increase is a reflection of the addition of financing in the current period versus the prior period ending March 31, 2020.

 

Net Loss. We incurred a net loss of $877,500 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to net loss of $964,736 for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The primary reason for the decrease in net loss is due to an increase in operating loss by $966,927 and an increase in interest expense by $221,691, offset by a gain from the change in the fair value of derivatives by $1,275,854. Management will continue to make an effort to lower operating expenses and increase revenue.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

We incurred a net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and had an accumulated deficit of $8,044,515 at March 31, 2021. At March 31, 2021, we had a cash balance of $19,196, compared to a cash balance of $45,102 at December 31, 2020. At March 31, 2021, we had a working capital deficit of $1,647,715, compared to a working capital deficit of $2,460,718 at December 31, 2020. The Company’s existing and available capital resources are not expected to be sufficient to satisfy our funding requirements through one year from the date of this filing in the absence of share issuances or other sources of financing.

 

We have not been able to generate sufficient cash from operating activities to fund our ongoing operations. Since our inception, we have raised capital through private sales of preferred stock, common stock, and debt securities.

 

We will be required to raise additional funds through public or private financing, additional collaborative relationships or other arrangements until we are able to raise revenues to a point of positive cash flow. We are evaluating various options to further reduce our cash requirements to operate at a reduced rate, as well as options to raise additional funds, including obtaining loans and selling common stock. There is no guarantee that we will be able to generate enough revenue and/or raise capital to support its operations.

 

Based on the above factors, substantial doubt exists about our ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the issuance of these financial statements.

 

The issuance of additional securities may result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of our current stockholders. Obtaining loans, assuming these loans would be available, will increase our liabilities and future cash commitments. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain further funds required for our continued operations or that additional financing will be available for use when needed or, if available, that it can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms.

 

The effect of existing or probable government regulations on our business is not known at this time. Due to the nature of our business, it is anticipated that there may be increasing government regulation that may cause us to have to take serious corrective actions or make changes to the business plan.

ITEM 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

 

As of March 31, 2021, the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this annual report. Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report at the reasonable assurance level.

Material Weakness in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

  The Company lacks an effective control environment since there are insufficient personnel to exercise appropriate oversight of accounting judgments and estimates.

 

  Due to limited accounting and financial reporting resources, the Company lacks formal processes to identify, update, and assess risks to the Company’s financial reporting.

 

  Due to limited accounting and financial reporting resources, the Company has not implemented significant monitoring controls.

 

 

Due to limited accounting and financial reporting resources, authorization, approval, and review controls over the Company's financial statements and accounting records have not been implemented or have not been applied consistently. This includes controls over the identification, approval, and disclosure of related party transactions. In certain cases, formal documentation does not exist regarding the design of controls, evidence of implementation of controls, or evidence of occurrence of certain transactions. In addition, certain of the Company’s processes lack segregation of duties.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Other than with respect to the remediation efforts discussed below, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Remediation of Previous Material Weaknesses

 

We have implemented and will continue to implement a number of measures to address the Material Weaknesses identified as of March 31, 2021. We plan on updating internal policies and procedures and create an effective control environment, add outside consultants as needed to bolster technical accounting needs, and add more personnel as needed to segregate duties.

 

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

 

Our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. Our management recognizes that any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain judgments and assumptions and cannot provide absolute assurance that its objectives will be met. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs. Similarly, an evaluation of controls cannot provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.
