SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

Included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are “forward-looking” statements, as well as historical information. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure you that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements will prove to be correct. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including matters described in the section titled “Risk Factors.” Forward-looking statements include those that use forward-looking terminology, such as the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “project,” “plan,” “will,” “shall,” “should,” and similar expressions, including when used in the negative. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable and achievable, these statements involve risks and uncertainties, and we cannot assure you that actual results will be consistent with these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether to reflect events or circumstances after the date initially filed or published, to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events or otherwise.

 

We operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for us to predict all of those risks, nor can we assess the impact of all of those risks on our business or the extent to which any factor may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. The COVID-19 pandemic is adversely affecting us, our customers, counterparties, employees, and third-party service providers, and the ultimate extent of the impacts on our business, financial position, results of operations, liquidity and prospects are uncertain. Continued deterioration in general business and economic conditions, including further increases in unemployment rates, or turbulence in domestic or global markets could adversely affect our revenues and the values of our assets and liabilities, reduce the availability of funding, lead to a tightening of credit, and further increase stock price volatility. In addition, changes to statutes, regulations, or regulatory policies or practices as a result of, or in response to COVID-19, could affect us in substantial and unpredictable ways. The forward-looking statements in this Report are based on assumptions management believes are reasonable. However, due to the uncertainties associated with forward-looking statements, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Further, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and unless required by law, we expressly disclaim any obligation or undertaking to publicly update any of them in light of new information, future events, or otherwise.

 

From time to time, forward-looking statements also are included in our other periodic reports on Forms 10-Q and 8-K, in our press releases, in our presentations, on our website and in other materials released to the public. Any or all of the forward-looking statements included in this Report and in any other reports or public statements made by us are not guarantees of future performance and may turn out to be inaccurate. These forward-looking statements represent our intentions, plans, expectations, assumptions and beliefs about future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors. Many of those factors are outside of our control and could cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed or implied by those forward-looking statements. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the events described in the forward-looking statements might not occur or might occur to a different extent or at a different time than we have described. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Report. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements concerning other matters addressed in this Report and attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this Report.

 

Except to the extent required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, a change in events, conditions, circumstances or assumptions underlying such statements, or otherwise.

 

For discussion of factors that we believe could cause our actual results to differ materially from expected and historical results see “Item 1A - Risk Factors” below.

PART I

 

Item 1. Business

 

Company Overview

 

Elite Performance Holding Corporation ("EPH") was formed on January 30, 2018 (inception) and is a holding company with anticipated holdings in companies centered on innovative and proprietary nutritional and dietary fitness enhancement products, that are in the sports performance, weight loss, nutritional, functional beverage and energy markets. The team is composed of highly experienced business, marketing and sales executives in the beverage and nutritional space, who are passionate about health and nutrition.

 

On February 2, 2018, the Company closed on a Stock Exchange Agreement (“SEA”) with Elite Beverage International Corp. (“Elite Beverage”).  Pursuant to the SEA, we purchased all of Joey Firestone and Jon McKenzie’s 100,000,000 common shares and 10,000,000 preferred shares in Elite Beverage, which gave the Company ownership of all of its assets and liabilities in exchange for 50,000,000 common shares and 10,000,000 preferred shares of the Company.  Following the SEA, Elite Beverage is a 100% wholly owned subsidiary of Elite Performance Holding Corp.

 

Elite Beverage was formed on November 29, 2017 (inception) and is currently producing a first of its kind functional sports beverage. BYLT® (Beyond Your Limit Training) sports drink is the first to combine the benefits of hydration, muscle repair, fat oxidation, and recovery all-in-one great tasting beverage. Whether you are looking to achieve optimal performance on the baseball field, basketball court, soccer field, in the gym or any competitive sport, BYLT® provides the competitive edge every athlete actively seeks. This unique product is designed with scientifically dosed key ingredients to bridge the gap between the current sports drinks filled with sugars that have serve no function, hydration beverages and dietary supplements, without the crash from sugars and jitters from caffeine which eventually leads to a decrease in performance for athletes. BYLT® is not only designed to enhance performance and support the intense physical demand of athletes but be safe and backed by science.

 

This acquisition was accounted for as an acquisition by entities under common control due to the fact that both Elite Performance Holding Corp. and Elite Beverage were commonly held by Joey Firestone and Jon McKenzie. The ownership structure of the Company did not change as a result nor did any of its officer’s change positions.

 

 

The mission of Elite Performance Holding Corp. is to aggressively seek and acquire companies with niche products that are first to market and can be exploited in the 35 billion dollar nutritional and sport beverage industries. The goal of EPH is to effectuate its unique business model through strategic branding and marketing, to aggressively scale companies to size, and operate them efficiently to maximize growth, revenue production and eventual net income. On February 2, 2018, a contribution and assignment agreement was executed by Joey Firestone and Jon McKenzie (collectively, the “Assignors”), and Elite Performance Holding Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Assignee”). Whereas Firestone and McKenzie were the owners of 50,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value, for a total of 100,000,000 shares of common stock (collectively, the “Shares”) of Elite Beverage International Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), which shares represented all authorized, issued and outstanding shares of the Company.

 

 

 

 Our Products and Services

 

Elite Beverage offers a first to market functional beverage that redefines hydration and performance drinks using a patent pending amino/carbohydrate combination. The SmartCarb® technology blend provides a unique benefit of hydration, endurance and sustained energy without caffeine, the crash of sugars, and without artificial flavors or colors making it the ideal sports beverage for health-conscious consumers and serious athletes alike. BYLT® will introduce two flavors upon launch while planning to strategically introduce additional 6 flavors to support the launch after three to nine months of operation. These flavors will include Raspberry lemonade, Tropical Punch, Lemon Lime, Green Apple, Watermelon, Grape, Orange and Fruit Punch.

Competition and Market Overview

 

The functional beverage industry is extremely competitive and has low barriers to entry. We compete with other sports drinks. Several of which have greater experience, brand name recognition and financial resources than Elite Beverage International Inc.

 

Our management believes that the functional beverage industry competes in the global marketplace and therefore must be adaptable to remain competitive. Consumer spending for discretionary goods such as supplements and functional beverages are sensitive to changes in consumer confidence and ultimately consumer confidence is affected by general business considerations in the U.S. economy. Consumer discretionary spending generally declines during times of falling consumer confidence, which may affect the retail sale of our products. U.S. consumer confidence reflected these slowing conditions throughout the last few years.

 

We believe that a stronger economy, more spending by young professionals with an overall trend toward health and fitness will lead to future growth. Therefore, we intend to make strong efforts to maintain our brand in the industry through our focus on the innovation and design of our products as well as being able to consolidate and increase cost efficiency when possible, through potential acquisitions.

 

Marketing and Distribution

 

It is our intention to position Elite Performance Holding Corp. as a holding company for the purpose of establishing the vertical integration of like companies in the health and fitness industry in order to develop multiple revenue streams while minimizing risks through diversification. Our branded product lines are currently functional beverages and will be the centerpiece of our branding efforts.  This is in line with our strategy and belief that a brand name can create an association with innovation, design and quality which helps add value to the individual products as well as facilitate the introduction of new innovative products.

 

 

Sales and Marketing

 

With its all-encompassing benefits and better-for-you ingredients, BYLT® is positioned to succeed in a highly lucrative market due to being first to market, its superior product offering and an ideal market opportunity. The breakdown of favorable market trends that will help fuel the initial growth and long-term success of the Company include:

 

üHealthy living trends and lifestyles are continuing, creating a drive for better-for-you trends, active lifestyles, and a growing demand for industry products from everyday consumers. 

 

üThere are currently no other RTD beverages that combine the benefits of BYLT® that athletes seek out. In order to achieve optimal nutrients, an athlete must take 3-4 supplements that are often packed with unhealthy additives such as sugars and caffeine. 

 

üSports Drinks accounted for 70% of the entire Fortified/Functional beverage industry and is expected to continue its growth during the next five years to become a $9 Billion market by 2021. 

 

üBYLT® is also positioned in the Nutrition and Performance Drink Industry which generated a total revenue of $14.2 billion. Mintel estimates sales of the category to continue to grow reaching $18.3 billion by 2021. 

 

üAccording to Statista, 36% of individuals in the U.S. purchase a ready to drink sports drink 1 – 2 times a week, while 15% purchase one over 10 times a week. 

 

üThere is high potential for customer loyalty in the industry and brands that deliver on their promised functional and health benefits usually keep loyal core consumers. 

 

The Company has contracted GBS Growth Partners to strategically implement and execute its nationwide sales and distribution of our first to market sports drink. The key executives at GBS Growth Partners are comprised of former seasoned Coca-Cola, PepsiCo and Dr. Pepper executives that have over 120 years of combined experience in the beverage industry. Their previous clients include Coca-Cola, Bolthouse Farms, Cinnabon, Nestle Waters, Honest, Celsius, and others. The Company will launch its products in a series of region expansions, as shown in the figure below.

As of December 31, 2019, accounts receivable, net amounted to only $0 and 0 customers represented 0% of this balance.

 

 

Sources and Availability of Raw Materials and Principal Suppliers

 

Most of the inventory and raw materials we purchase occurs through our manufacturers located in Dade City, FL. Our inventory supply is based on the sales and revenues of our products. Inventory supply is ultimately determined at the discretion of Mr. Firestone, and the Company’s COO, David Sandler based on his experience in the industry. Our inventories are commodities that can be incorporated into future products or can be sold on the open market. Additionally, we perform physical inventory inspections on a quarterly basis to assess upcoming styling needs and consider the current pricing in metals and stones needed for our products.

 

We acquire all packaging and other raw materials used for manufacturing our products on the open market. We are not constrained in our purchasing by any contracts with any suppliers and acquire raw material based upon, among other things, availability and price on the open wholesale market.

 

 

Intellectual Property

 

The Company presently has exclusive rights on a patent pending SmartCarb® technology (US Patent Application No. 16/785,498.) and entered into an Exclusivity Agreement between Elite Beverage International Corp. and Bruce Kneller on August 1st, 2020

 

Research and Development

 

There were $124.00 in expenses incurred for research and development in 2019.

 

Environmental Regulation and Compliance

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

Risks Related to Our Business and Industry

 

WE HAVE HAD LIMITED OPERATIONS, HAVE INCURRED LOSSES SINCE INCEPTION, HAVE LIMITED CASH TO SUSTAIN OUR OPERATIONS, AND WE NEED ADDITIONAL CAPITAL TO EXECUTE OUR BUSINESS PLAN AND RECEIVED A GOING CONCERN OPINION IN PRIOR PERIODS.

 

The Company has suffered recurring losses. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had limited cash on hand and $518,967 in convertible debt and loans payable.  At December 31, 2019, the Company also had a stockholders’ deficit of $928,567. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet is dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn, is dependent upon the Company's ability to raise capital and/or generate positive cash flows from operations.

 

Management plans to achieve profitability by increasing its business through retail distribution and expanding its online ecommerce presence. There can be no assurance that the Company can raise the required capital to support operations or increase sales to achieve profitable operations. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.

 

A DECLINE IN DISCRETIONARY CONSUMER SPENDING MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR INDUSTRY, OUR OPERATIONS, AND ULTIMATELY OUR PROFITABILITY.

 

Consumer products, such as sports drinks, are discretionary purchases for consumers. Any reduction in consumer discretionary spending or disposable income may affect the sports beverage or functional beverage industry more significantly than other industries. Many economic factors outside of our control could affect consumer discretionary spending, including the financial markets, consumer credit availability, prevailing interest rates, energy costs, employment levels, salary levels, and tax rates. Any reduction in discretionary consumer spending could materially adversely affect our business and financial condition.

 

THERE IS A RISK ASSOCIATED WITH COVID-19

 

The Company’s operations were and may be continued to be affected by the recent and ongoing outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) which in March 2020, was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization. The ultimate disruption which may be caused by the outbreak is uncertain; however, it may result in a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position, operations and cash flows. Possible areas that may be affected include, but are not limited to, disruption to the Company’s customers and revenue, labor workforce, unavailability of products and supplies used in operations, and the decline in value of assets held by the Company, including property and equipment.

 


8


OUR OPERATING RESULTS MAY BE ADVERSELY IMPACTED BY WORLDWIDE POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC UNCERTAINTIES AND SPECIFIC CONDITIONS IN THE MARKETS WE ADDRESS.

 

In the recent past, general worldwide economic conditions have experienced a downturn due to slower economic activity, concerns about inflation, increased energy costs, decreased consumer confidence, and reduced corporate profits and capital spending, and adverse business conditions. Any continuation or worsening of the current global economic and financial conditions could materially adversely affect (i) our ability to raise, or the cost of, needed capital, (ii) demand for our current and future products and (iii) our ability to commercialize products. We cannot predict the timing, strength, or duration of any economic slowdown or subsequent economic recovery, worldwide, or in the display industry.

 

THE LOSS OF THE SERVICES OF OUR KEY EMPLOYEES, PARTICULARLY THE SERVICES RENDERED BY OUR CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND DIRECTOR, MR. JOEY FIRESTONE, COULD HARM OUR BUSINESS.

 

We believe our success will depend, to a significant extent, on the efforts and abilities of Joey Firestone, our Chief Executive Officer. If we lost Mr. Firestone, we would be forced to expend significant time and money in the pursuit of a replacement, which would result in both a delay in the implementation of our business plan and the diversion of limited working capital. We can give you no assurance that we could find a satisfactory replacement for Mr. Firestone at all, or on terms that are not unduly expensive or burdensome.

 

OUR FUTURE SUCCESS DEPENDS UPON, IN LARGE PART, OUR CONTINUING ABILITY TO ATTRACT AND RETAIN QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.

 

If we grow and implement our business plan, we will need to add managerial talent to support our business plan. There is no guarantee that we will be successful in adding such managerial talent. These professionals are regularly recruited by other companies and may choose to change companies. Given our relatively small size compared to some of our competitors, the performance of our business may be more adversely affected than our competitors would be if we lose well-performing employees and are unable to attract new ones.

 

BECAUSE WE INTEND TO GROW BY ACQUISITIONS AND SUCH ACTIVITY INVOLVES A NUMBER OF RISKS, OUR BUSINESS MAY SUFFER.

 

We may consider acquisitions of assets or other business.  Any acquisition or opening of another retail store or other operations involves a number of risks that could fail to meet our expectations and adversely affect our profitability.  For example:

 

·The acquired assets or business may not achieve expected results; 

·We may incur substantial, unanticipated costs, delays or other operational or financial problems when integrating the acquired assets; 

·We may not be able to retain key personnel of an acquired business; 

·We may not be able to raise the required capital to expand; 

·Our management’s attention may be diverted; or 

·Our management may not be able to manage the acquired assets or combined entity effectively or to make acquisitions and grow our business internally at the same time. 

If these problems arise, we may not realize the expected benefits of an acquisition.

 

 

BECAUSE WE DEPEND ON OUR ABILITY TO IDENTIFY AND RESPOND TO CONSUMER TRENDS, IF WE MISJUDGE THESE TRENDS, OUR ABILITY TO MAINTAIN AND GAIN MARKET SHARE WILL BE AFFECTED.

 

The beverage industry is subject to rapidly changing consumer trends and shifting consumer demands. Accordingly, our success may depend on the priority that our target customers place on fashion and our ability to anticipate, identify, and capitalize upon emerging consumer trends. If we misjudge consumer trends or are unable to adjust our products in a timely manner, our net sales may decline or fail to meet expectations and any excess inventory may be sold at lower prices.

 

OUR ABILITY TO MAINTAIN OR INCREASE OUR REVENUES COULD BE HARMED IF WE ARE UNABLE TO STRENGTHEN AND MAINTAIN OUR BRAND IMAGE.

 

We have limited revenues and have spent significant amounts of time and money in branding our beverage lines. We believe that primary factors in determining customer buying decisions, especially in the beverage industry, are determined by price, confidence in the merchandise and quality associated with a brand. The ability to differentiate products from competitors of the Company has been a factor in attracting consumers. However, if the Company’s ability to promote its brand fails to garner brand recognition, its ability to generate revenues may suffer. If the Company fails to differentiate its products, its ability to sell its products wholesale will be adversely affected. These factors could result in lower selling prices and sales volumes, which could adversely affect its financial condition and results of operations.

 

IF WE WERE TO EXPERIENCE SUBSTANTIAL DEFAULTS BY OUR CUSTOMERS ON ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE, THIS COULD HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON OUR LIQUIDITY AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

 

If customers responsible for a large amount of accounts receivable were to become insolvent or otherwise unable to pay for our products, or to make payments in a timely manner, our liquidity and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. An economic or industry downturn could materially affect the ability to collect these accounts receivable, which could then result in longer payment cycles, increased collections costs and defaults in excess of management’s expectations. A significant deterioration in the ability to collect on accounts receivable could affect our cash flow and working capital position.

 

WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO INCREASE SALES OR OTHERWISE SUCCESSFULLY OPERATE OUR BUSINESS, WHICH COULD HAVE A SIGNIFICANT NEGATIVE IMPACT ON OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION.


9


 

We believe that the key to our success will be to increase our revenues and available working capital. We may not have the resources required to promote our business and its potential benefits. If we are unable to gain market acceptance of our business, we will not be able to generate enough revenue to achieve and maintain profitability or to continue our operations.

We may not be able to increase our sales or effectively operate our business. To the extent we are unable to achieve sales growth, we may continue to incur losses. We may not be successful or make progress in the growth and operation of our business. Our current and future expense levels are based on operating plans and estimates of future sales and revenues and are subject to increase as strategies are implemented. Even if our sales grow, we may be unable to adjust spending in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected revenue shortfall.

 

Further, if we substantially increase our operating expenses to increase sales and marketing, and such expenses are not subsequently followed by increased revenues, our operating performance and results would be adversely affected and, if sustained, could have a material adverse effect on our business. To the extent we implement cost reduction efforts to align our costs with revenue, our sales could be adversely affected.

 

WE MAY NEED ADDITIONAL FINANCING WHICH WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO OBTAIN ON ACCEPTABLE TERMS. IF WE ARE UNABLE TO RAISE ADDITIONAL CAPITAL, AS NEEDED, THE FUTURE GROWTH OF OUR BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS COULD BE SEVERELY LIMITED.

 

A limiting factor on our growth is our limited capitalization, which could impact our ability to execute on our business plan. If we raise additional capital through the issuance of debt, this will result in increased interest expense. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of equity or convertible debt securities, the percentage ownership of the Company held by existing shareholders will be reduced and our shareholders may experience significant dilution. In addition, new securities may contain rights, preferences or privileges that are senior to those of our Common Stock. If additional funds are raised by the issuance of debt or other equity instruments, we may become subject to certain operational limitations (for example, negative operating covenants). There can be no assurance that acceptable financing necessary to further implement our business plan can be obtained on suitable terms, if at all. Our ability to develop our business, fund expansion, develop or enhance products or respond to competitive pressures, could suffer if we are unable to raise the additional funds on acceptable terms, which would have the effect of limiting our ability to increase our revenues or possibly attain profitable operations in the future.

 

WE MAY BE UNABLE TO MANAGE GROWTH, WHICH MAY IMPACT OUR POTENTIAL PROFITABILITY.

 

Successful implementation of our business strategy requires us to manage our growth. Growth could place an increasing strain on our management and financial resources. To manage growth effectively, we will need to:

 

·Establish definitive business strategies, goals and objectives; 

·Maintain a system of management controls; and 

·Attract and retain qualified personnel, as well as, develop, train and manage management-level and other employees. 

 

If we fail to manage our growth effectively, our business, financial condition or operating results could be materially harmed, and our stock price may decline.

 

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

 

OUR COMMON STOCK IS NOT CURRENTLY QUOTED ON THE OTC MARKETS (PINK SHEETS), WHICH MAY MEANS THERE IS CURRENTLY NO STOCK PRICE QUOTE, NO TRADING IN OUR STOCK, AND NO LIQUIDITY.  

 

We currently have no listing or trading symbol, and our common stock is not yet quoted on the Pink Sheets, an over-the-counter electronic quotation system maintained by the OTC Markets.  We are seeking a market maker’s sponsorship in order to obtain a trading symbol, and then intend for our common stock to be quoted on the OTC Markets.  However, even if we obtain a trading symbol, and our common stock becomes quoted on the OTC Markets, the future quotation of our shares on the Pink Sheets may result in a less liquid market available for existing and potential stockholders to trade shares of our common stock, and this illiquidity could depress the future trading price of our common stock and could have a long-term adverse impact on our ability to raise capital in the future.

 

EVEN IF OUR COMMON STOCK BECOMES QUOTED ON THE OTC MARKETS, THERE IS LIMITED LIQUIDITY ON THE PINK SHEETS, WHICH ENHANCES THE VOLATILE NATURE OF OUR EQUITY.  

 

If our common stock becomes quoted on the Pink Sheets, there will likely be few shares of our common stock initially traded, the volatility of our stock price may increase, and price movement may outpace the ability to deliver accurate quote information.  Due to lower trading volumes in shares of a typical Pink Sheet’s common stock, there may be a lower likelihood that orders for shares of our common stock will be executed, and market prices may differ significantly from the price that was quoted at the time of entry of the order.

IF WE OBTAIN A TRADING SYMBOL, AND OUR COMMON STOCK IS QUOTED ON THE OTC MARKETS, OUR COMMON STOCK WILL BE CONSIDERED A “PENNY STOCK,” AND WILL BE SUBJECT TO ADDITIONAL SALE AND TRADING REGULATIONS THAT MAY MAKE IT MORE DIFFICULT TO SELL.

 

If we obtain a trading symbol and our common stock is quoted on the OTC Markets Pink Sheets, our common stock will be considered to be a “penny stock” since it will not qualify for one of the exemptions from the definition of “penny stock” under Section 3a of the Exchange Act. Our common stock is a “penny stock” because it meets one or more of the following conditions (i) the stock trades at a price less than $5.00 per share; (ii) it is not traded on a “recognized” national exchange; (iii) it is not quoted on the Nasdaq Stock Market, or even if so, has a price less than $5.00 per share; or (iv) is issued by a company that has been in business less than three years with net tangible assets less than $5 million.

 


10


The principal result or effect of being designated a “penny stock” is that securities broker-dealers participating in sales of our common stock will be subject to the “penny stock” regulations set forth in Rules 15-2 through 15g-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act. For example, Rule 15g-2 requires broker-dealers dealing in penny stocks to provide potential investors with a document disclosing the risks of penny stocks and to obtain a manually signed and dated written receipt of the document at least two business days before effecting any transaction in a penny stock for the investor’s account. Moreover, Rule 15g-9 requires broker-dealers in penny stocks to approve the account of any investor for transactions in such stocks before selling any penny stock to that investor.

 

This procedure requires the broker-dealer to (i) obtain from the investor information concerning his or her financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives; (ii) reasonably determine, based on that information, that transactions in penny stocks are suitable for the investor and that the investor has sufficient knowledge and experience as to be reasonably capable of evaluating the risks of penny stock transactions; (iii) provide the investor with a written statement setting forth the basis on which the broker-dealer made the determination in (ii) above; and (iv) receive a signed and dated copy of such statement from the investor, confirming that it accurately reflects the investor's financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives. Compliance with these requirements may make it more difficult and time consuming for holders of our common stock to resell their shares to third parties or to otherwise dispose of them in the market or otherwise.

 

OUR CURRENT CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND DIRECTOR, MR. JOEY FIRESTONE HAS SUFFICIENT VOTING POWER TO CONTROL THE VOTE ON SUBSTANTIALLY ALL CORPORATE MATTERS.

 

Joey Firestone, our Chief Executive Officer and director has sufficient voting power through his ownership of 5,000,000 series A preferred with Super Voting Rights to control the vote on substantially all corporate matters. Accordingly, Mr. Firestone will be able to determine the composition of our board of directors, will retain the effective voting power to approve all matters requiring shareholder approval, will prevail in matters requiring shareholder approval, including, in particular the election and removal of directors, and will continue to have significant influence over our business. As a result of his ownership and position in the Company, Mr. Firestone is able to influence all matters requiring shareholder action, including significant corporate transactions.

 

EVEN IF WE OBTAIN A TRADING SYMBOL AND OUR COMMON STOCK IS QUOTED ON THE OTC MARKETS, TRADING OF OUR STOCK MAY BE RESTRICTED BY THE U.S. SECURITIES & EXCHANGE COMMISSION’S PENNY STOCK REGULATIONS, WHICH MAY LIMIT A STOCKHOLDER’S ABILITY TO BUY AND SELL OUR STOCK.

 

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted regulations which generally define “penny stock” to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our securities are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors”. The term “accredited investor” refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer’s confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities. We believe that the penny stock rules will discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of our common stock.

 

WE CURRENTLY HAVE A LIMITED ACCOUNTING STAFF, AND IF WE FAIL TO DEVELOP OR MAINTAIN AN EFFECTIVE SYSTEM OF INTERNAL CONTROLS, WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO REPORT OUR FINANCIAL RESULTS TIMELY AND ACCURATELY OR PREVENT FRAUD, WHICH WOULD LIKELY HAVE A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON UNITS.

 

We are subject to the public reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”). Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable and timely financial reports, prevent fraud and to operate successfully as a publicly traded partnership.

 

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting and principles generally accepted in the United States, but our internal accounting controls may not meet all standards applicable to companies with publicly traded securities.  Our efforts to develop and maintain our internal controls may not be successful, and we may be unable to maintain effective controls over our financial processes and reporting in the future or to comply with our obligations under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which we refer to as Section 404. For example, Section 404 requires us, among other things, to annually review and report on, and our independent registered public accounting firm to attest to, the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting.  Based on management’s evaluation, as of December 31, 2019, our management concluded that we had several material weaknesses related to our internal controls over financial reporting (See Item 9A).

 

EVEN IF WE OBTAIN A TRADING SYMBOL AND OUR COMMON STOCK IS QUOTED ON THE OTC MARKETS, THE MARKET PRICE FOR OUR COMMON SHARES WILL BE PARTICULARLY VOLATILE GIVEN OUR STATUS AS A RELATIVELY UNKNOWN COMPANY WITH WHAT WILL BE A SMALL AND THINLY TRADED PUBLIC FLOAT, LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY AND LACK OF PROFITS WHICH COULD LEAD TO WIDE FLUCTUATIONS IN OUR SHARE PRICE. YOU MAY BE UNABLE TO SELL YOUR COMMON SHARES AT ALL, OR EVEN IF YOU CAN EVENTUALLY SELL YOUR SHARES, THERE


11


IS NO GUARANTEE THAT YOU CAN SELL SUCH SHARES AT OR ABOVE YOUR PURCHASE PRICE, WHICH MAY RESULT IN SUBSTANTIAL LOSSES TO YOU.

 

There is currently no market for our common shares, as we do not yet have a trading symbol, and our common stock is not quoted anywhere.   Even  if we obtain a trading symbol and our common stock is quoted on the OTC Markets Pink Sheets, the market for our common shares is expected to be characterized by significant price volatility when compared to the shares of larger, more established companies that trade on a national securities exchange and have large public floats, and we expect that our share price will continue to be more volatile than the shares of such larger, more established companies for the indefinite future. Even after our common stock is quoted, the expected volatility in our future share price is attributable to a number of factors. First, as noted above, our common shares will be, compared to the shares of such larger, more established companies, sporadically and thinly traded. As a consequence of this limited liquidity, the trading of relatively small quantities of shares by our shareholders may disproportionately influence the price of those shares in either direction. The price for our shares could, for example, decline precipitously in the event that a large number of our common shares are sold on the market without commensurate demand. Secondly, we are a speculative or “risky” investment due to our limited operating history and lack of profits to date, and uncertainty of future market acceptance for our potential products. As a consequence of this enhanced risk, more risk-adverse investors may, under the fear of losing all or most of their investment in the event of negative news or lack of progress, be more inclined to sell their shares on the market more quickly and at greater discounts than would be the case with the stock of a larger, more established company that trades on a national securities exchange and has a large public float. Many of these factors are beyond our control and may decrease the market price of our common shares, regardless of our operating performance. We cannot make any predictions or projections as to when we will obtain a trading symbol, or when our stock will be quoted, or once quoted, what the prevailing market price for our common shares will be at any time, including as to whether our common shares will sustain their initial market prices, or as to what effect that the sale of shares or the availability of common shares for sale at any time will have on the future market price.

 

WE WILL INCUR INCREASED COSTS AS A RESULT OF BEING A PUBLIC COMPANY, WHICH COULD AFFECT OUR PROFITABILITY AND OPERATING RESULTS.

 

We voluntarily file annual, quarterly and current reports with the SEC. In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Sarbanes-Oxley”) and the rules subsequently implemented by the SEC and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board have imposed various requirements on public companies, including requiring changes in corporate governance practices. We expect these rules and regulations to increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities of ours more time-consuming and costly. We expect to spend between $25,000 and $50,000 in legal and accounting expenses annually to comply with our SEC reporting obligations and Sarbanes-Oxley. These costs could affect profitability and our results of operations.

 

WE HAVE NOT PAID DIVIDENDS IN THE PAST AND DO NOT EXPECT TO PAY DIVIDENDS FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE. ANY RETURN ON INVESTMENT MAY BE LIMITED TO THE VALUE OF OUR COMMON STOCK, WHICH IS CURRENTLY ILLIQUID, AS OUR COMMON STOCK IS NOT QUOTED, AND THERE IS CURRENTLY NO MARKET FOR OUR COMMON STOCK.

 

No cash dividends have been paid on the Company’s common stock. We expect that any income received from operations will be devoted to our future operations and growth. The Company does not expect to pay cash dividends in the near future. Payment of dividends would depend upon our profitability at the time, cash available for those dividends, and other factors as the Company’s board of directors may consider relevant. If the Company does not pay dividends, the Company’s common stock may be less valuable because a return on an investor’s investment will only occur if the Company’s stock price appreciates.

 

Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments.

 

Not applicable.

 

Item 2. Properties.

 

At the current time, the Company’s CEO, Joey Firestone, leases office space on a monthly bases for the operations, and tangible assets, other than inventory, consists of general office equipment and computers. Our expansion plans are in the preliminary stages with no formal negotiations being conducted. Most likely no expansions will take place until additional revenues can be achieved, or additional capital can be raised to help offset the costs associated with any expansion.

 

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

 

We are currently not involved in any litigation that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.  There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of our company or any of our subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting our company, our common stock, any of our subsidiaries or of our companies or our subsidiaries’ officers or directors in their capacities as such, in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect.

Forward Looking Statements

 

This report and other reports filed by the Company from time to time with the SEC (collectively the “Filings”) contain or may contain forward-looking statements and information that are based upon beliefs of, and information currently available to, our management as well as estimates and assumptions made by our management.  Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which are only predictions and speak only as of the date hereof.

 

When used in the filings, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “future,” “intend,” “plan,” or the negative of these terms and similar expressions as they relate to us or our management identify forward-looking statements. Such statements reflect our current view with respect to future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties, assumptions, and other factors, including those set forth in the Risk Factors on page 8. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may differ significantly from those anticipated, believed, estimated, expected, intended, or planned.

 

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements. Except, as required by applicable law, including the securities laws of the United States, we do not intend to update any of the forward-looking statements to conform these statements to actual results.

 

Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). These accounting principles require us to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions. We believe that the estimates, judgments and assumptions upon which we rely are reasonable based upon information available to us at the time that these estimates, judgments and assumptions are made. These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the periods presented.  Our financial statements would be affected to the extent there are material differences between these estimates and actual results. In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by GAAP and does not require management’s judgment in its application. There are also areas in which management’s judgment in selecting any available alternative would not produce a materially different result. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report.

 

General

 

Management’s discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition is intended to assist the reader in the understanding and assessment of significant changes and trends related to the results of operations and financial position of the Company together with its subsidiary. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying financial notes, and with the Critical Accounting Policies noted below.

 

Plan of Operation

 

The Company plans to offer a first to market functional beverage that redefines hydration and performance drinks using a patent pending amino/carbohydrate combination. The SmartCarb® technology blend provides a unique benefit of hydration, endurance and sustained energy without caffeine, the crash of sugars, and without artificial flavors or colors making it the ideal sports beverage for health-conscious


14


consumers and serious athletes alike. BYLT® will introduce two flavors upon launch while planning to strategically introduce additional 6 flavors to support the launch after three to nine months of operation. These flavors will include Blue Raspberry, Tropical Punch, Lemon Lime, Watermelon, Grape, Orange and Fruit Punch.

 

The Company has instituted various cost saving measures to conserve cash and has worked with its creditors in an attempt to negotiate various debt terms. The Company has been also investigating various strategies to increase sales and expand its business. The Company is in negotiations with some potential partners, but, at this time, there is nothing concrete, but the Company remains positive about its prospects. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in its endeavors or that it will be able to increase its business.

 

Our future operations are contingent upon increasing revenues and raising capital for on-going operations and expansion of our product lines. Because we have a limited operating history, you may have difficulty evaluating our business and future prospects.

The Company’s operations continue to be affected by the recent and ongoing outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) which in March 2020, was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization. The ultimate disruption which may be caused by the outbreak is uncertain; however, it may result in a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position, operations and cash flows. Possible areas that may be affected include, but are not limited to, disruption to the Company’s customers and revenue, labor workforce, unavailability of products and supplies used in operations, and the decline in value of assets held by the Company, including property and equipment.

 

Results of Operations - For the Year Ended December 31, 2019 Compared the period beginning January 30, 2018 (Inception) to the Year Ended December 31, 2018

 

Sales

 

Net sales for year ended December 31, 2019 were $35,820 compared to $9,900 for the period January 30, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018. This increase is mostly attributed to the increased marketing and advertising.

 

Gross Profit

 

Gross profit for the year ended December 31, 2019 was $(150,688) compared to $(34) for the period January 30, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018 This decrease in gross profit is primarily due to more marketing and advertising expenses.

 

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

 

Total selling, general and administrative expenses were $1,418,901 for the year ended December 31, 2019 as compared to $692,348 for the period January 30, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018. This increase is attributed to increase in consulting fees and marketing to grow the brand.

 

Loss from Operations

 

As a result of the above, the Company had a loss from operations in the amount of $1,569,589 for the year ended December 31, 2019 as compared to $692,382 for the period January 30, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018.

 

Other Expense

 

For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company had other expense of $144,520 as compared to other expense of $27,607 for the period January 30, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018. This increase was attributable to the increase in debt discount amortization, Financing fees and interest expenses arising from the increases in the convertible debt.

 

Net Loss

 

As a result of the above, the Company had a net loss of $1,714,109 for the year ended December 31, 2019 as compared to $719,989 for the period January 30, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018.

Our working capital deficit was $(928,567) at December 31, 2019 as compared to a working capital deficit of ($524,396) at December 31, 2018. This decrease is primarily attributed to higher accounts payable and accrued liabilities, convertible debt and advances from related parties.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company had a net increase in cash of $16,758. The Company’s principal sources and uses of funds were as follows:


15


 

Cash used in operating activities. For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company used $(1,194,067) in cash from operating activities as compared to $(504,458) in cash for the period January 30, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018. This decrease was mainly attributed to increase in the net loss

 

Cash used in investing activities. For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company used $-0- in investing activities as compared to cash from investing activities of $14,447 for the period January 30, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018 as result of the effect of acquisition in 2018.

 

Cash provided financing activities. For the year ended December 31, 2019 the Company provided $1,210,825 in financing activities as compared to $490,137 in cash for financing activities for the period January 30, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018. This increase is primarily the result of an increase in proceeds from convertible debt, loans payable partially and proceeds from the sale of stock offset by higher payments of loans payable.

 

Our indebtedness is comprised of various convertible debt and advances from a stockholder/officer intended to provide capital for the ongoing manufacturing of our beverage line, in advance of receipt of the payment from our retail distributors.

 

Convertible Debt

 

The Company enters into certain financing agreements for convertible debt. For the most part, the Company settles these obligations with the Company’s common stock. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had outstanding convertible debt in the amount of $309,030. See note – 9 in the notes to the financial statements for the terms and conversion features.

 

Loans Payable

 

The Company has loans payable related party of $209,937 and related accrued interest of $22,947, at December 31, 2019.

 

Satisfaction of Our Cash Obligations for the Next 12 Months

 

A critical component of our operating plan impacting our continued existence is to increase sales and efficiently manage the production of our beverage lines and successfully develop new lines through our Company or through possible acquisitions and/or mergers. Our ability to obtain capital through additional equity and/or debt financing, and joint venture partnerships will also be important to our expansion plans. In the event we experience any significant problems assimilating acquired assets into our operations or cannot obtain the necessary capital to pursue our strategic plan, we may have to reduce the growth of our operations. This may materially impact our ability to increase revenue and continue our growth.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplates continuation of the Company as a going concern.

 

The Company has suffered recurring losses, and at December 31, 2019, the Company had a stockholders’ deficit of $928,567. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had only $16,884 cash on hand and $518,967 in convertible debt and loans payable on December 31, 2019. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet is dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn, is dependent upon the Company's ability to raise capital and/or generate positive cash flows from operations.

 

 

Research and Development

 

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses primarily consist of salaries and benefits for research and development employees, stock-based compensation, consulting fees, lab supplies, and regulatory compliance costs. For the Year ended December 31, 2019 and the period January 30, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018 we had $124 and $77,608 respectively in R&D expense.

 

Expected Purchase or Sale of Plant and Significant Equipment

 

We do not anticipate the purchase or sale of any plant or significant equipment; as such items are not required by us at this time.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. As of December 31, 2019, the company had an accumulated deficit of ($2,459,098). The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its management, its ability to generate profits from the Company’ s future operations, identify future investment opportunities and obtain the necessary debt or equity financing. These factors raise doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC 606 — Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue from the commercial sales of products, licensing agreements and contracts to perform pilot studies by applying the


16


following steps: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied. For the comparative periods, revenue has not been adjusted and continues to be reported under ASC 605 — Revenue Recognition. Under ASC 605, revenue is recognized when the following criteria are met: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) the performance of service has been rendered to a customer or delivery has occurred; (3) the amount of fee to be paid by a customer is fixed and determinable; and (4) the collectability of the fee is reasonably assured. The Company recognizes revenues and the related costs when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery and acceptance has occurred, or service has been rendered, the price is fixed or determinable, and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. Amounts invoiced or collected in advance of product delivery or providing services are recorded as deferred revenue. The Company accrues for warranty costs, sales returns, bad debts, and other allowances based on its historical experience. For the year ended December 31, 2019 and the period January 30, 2018 (inception) through December 31, 2018 we had $35,820 and $9,900 respectively in revenue from the sale of our products.  

 

Income Taxes  

 

Federal Income taxes are not currently due since we have had losses since inception. On December 22, 2017 H.R. 1, originally known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, (the “Tax Act”) was enacted.  Among the significant changes to the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, the Tax Act lowers the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate (“Federal Tax Rate”) from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018.  The Company will compute its income tax expense for the period January 30, 2018 (inception) through December 31, 2019 using a Federal Tax Rate of 21%.

 

Income taxes are provided based upon the liability method of accounting pursuant to ASC 740-10-25 Income Taxes – Recognition.  Under this approach, deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year end.  A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets if management does not believe the Company has met the “more likely than not” standard required by ASC 740-10-25-5.

 

Deferred income tax amounts reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax reporting purposes.

 

As of December 31, 2019, we had a net operating loss carry-forward of approximately $(2,434,098) and a deferred tax asset of $511,161 using the statutory rate of 21%. The deferred tax asset may be recognized in future periods, not to exceed 20 years.  However, due to the uncertainty of future events we have booked valuation allowance of $(511,161).  FASB ASC 740 prescribes recognition threshold and measurement attributes for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FASB ASC 740 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.  At December 31, 2019 the Company had not taken any tax positions that would require disclosure under FASB ASC 740.  

 

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company records stock-based compensation using the fair value method. Equity instruments issued to employees and the cost of the services received as consideration are accounted for in accordance with ASC 718 “Stock Compensation” and are measured and recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued. All transactions with non-employees in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for in accordance with ASC 515 “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees”, based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.  

 

Long Lived Assets

 

Periodically the Company assesses potential impairment of its long-lived assets, which include property, equipment and acquired intangible assets, in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment.” The Company recognizes impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying values. An impairment loss would be recognized in the amount by which the recorded value of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset, measured by the quoted market price of an asset or an estimate based on the best information available in the circumstances. There were no such losses recognized during the Years ended December 31, 2019 and the period January 30, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018.  

 

Property, Equipment and Intangible Assets

 

Property and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Additions are capitalized and maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Intangible assets consist of acquired web site domains and web site content and are carried at cost, less accumulated amortization.  Depreciation and amortization is provided principally on the straight-line basis method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.  

 

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

 

The Company is reviewing the effects of following recent updates.  The Company has no expectation that any of these items will have a material effect upon the financial statements.

 

FASB ASU 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842)” – In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, which requires lessees to recognize almost all leases on their balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability.  For income statement purposes, the FASB retained a dual model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance. Classification will be based on criteria that are largely similar to those applied in current lease accounting, but without explicit bright lines.  Lessor accounting is similar to the current model but has been updated to align with certain changes to the lessee model and the new revenue recognition standard. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We have adopted the above ASU as of December 31, 2019.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

The Company is not party to any off-balance sheet arrangements that may affect its financial position or its results of operations.

 

No other recently issued accounting pronouncements had or are expected to have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

 

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders

Elite Performance Holding Corp.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Elite Performance Holding Corp. (the Company) as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2019 and for the period from January 30, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2019 and for the period from January 30, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements, the company has recently accumulated significant losses from operations and has negative working capital, which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 6. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

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

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

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

Elite Performance Holding Corp.

                                        Consolidated Notes to the Financial Statements

                                       For the period from January 30, 2018 (Inception)

                                    through December 31, 2019  

 

NOTE 1- GENERAL

 

Business Overview

 

Elite Performance Holding Corporation ("EPH") was formed on January 30, 2018 (inception) and is a holding company with anticipated holdings in companies centered on innovative and proprietary nutritional and dietary fitness enhancement products, that are in the sports performance, weight loss, nutritional, functional beverage and energy markets. The team is composed of highly experienced business, marketing and sales executives in the beverage and nutritional space, who are passionate about health and nutrition.

 

The mission of Elite Performance Holdings Corp. is to aggressively seek and acquire companies with niche products that are first to market and can be exploited in the 35 billion dollar nutritional and sport beverage industries. The goal of EPH is to effectuate its unique business model through strategic branding and marketing, to aggressively scale companies to size, and operate them efficiently to maximize growth, revenue production and eventual net income. On February 2, 2018, a contribution and assignment agreement was executed by Joey Firestone and Jon McKenzie (collectively, the “Assignors”), and Elite Performance Holding Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Assignee”). Whereas Firestone and McKenzie were the owners of 50,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value, for a total of 100,000,000 shares of common stock (collectively, the “Shares”) of Elite Beverage International Corp., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), which shares represented all authorized, issued and outstanding shares of the Company.

 

Elite Beverage International is a 100% wholly owned subsidiary of Elite Performance Holding Corp. Elite Beverage is currently producing a first of its kind functional sports beverage. Beyond Your Limit Training (B.Y.L.T.) sports drink is the first to combine the benefits of hydration, muscle repair, fat oxidation, and recovery all-in-one great tasting beverage.

BYLT® will introduce two flavors upon launch while planning to strategically introduce additional 6 flavors to support the launch after three to nine months of operation. These flavors will include Raspberry lemonade, Tropical Punch, Lemon Lime, Green Apple, Watermelon, Grape, Orange and Fruit Punch.

 

 

NOTE 2 - ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. As of December 31, 2019, the company had an accumulated deficit of ($2,434,098). The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its management, its ability to generate profits from the Company’ s future operations, identify future investment opportunities and obtain the necessary debt or equity financing. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Accounting Methods

The Company’s financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting. The Company has elected a calendar year-end.

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and operations of the Company, and its wholly owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. The Company has made certain reclassification adjustments to conform prior periods’ Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements to the current presentation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

We maintain the majority of our cash accounts at a commercial bank. The total cash balance is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) up to $250,000 per commercial bank. For purposes of the statement of cash flows we consider all cash and highly liquid investments with initial maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable


25


We grant credit to our customers located within the United States of America; and do not require collateral. Our ability to collect receivables is affected by economic fluctuations in the geographic areas and industries served by us. The allowance for doubtful trade receivables was $4,217 as of December 31, 2019, and $0 as of December 31, 2018.

Inventory

Inventories are valued at the lower of weighted average cost or market value. Our industry experiences change in technology, changes in market value and availability of raw materials, as well as changing customer demand. We make provisions for estimated excess and obsolete inventories based on regular audits and cycle counts of our on-hand inventory levels and forecasted customer demands and at times additional provisions are made. Any inventory write offs are charged to the reserve account. As of December 31, 2019, and December 31, 2018, we had no reserve for potentially obsolete inventory. We had $152,330 and $139,140 in inventory as of December 31, 2019, and December 31, 2018.

Prepaid Expenses

We had $2,638 and $2,928 in prepaid inventory and insurance as of December 31, 2019, and December 31, 2018 respectively.

 

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share

The Company presents both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including convertible debt, stock options, and warrants, using the treasury stock method, and convertible securities, using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. The Company had net losses as of December 31, 2019, so the diluted EPS excluded all dilutive potential shares in the diluted EPS because their effect is anti-dilutive. As of December 31, 2019, the company had $341,500 in convertible notes that may be converted into 6,830,000 shares of common stock. We also had 16,994,000 shares to be issued as of December 31, 2019.

The carrying number of accounts payable and accrued expenses are considered to be representative of their respective fair values because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments.

Research and Development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses primarily consist of salaries and benefits for research and development employees, stock-based compensation, consulting fees, lab supplies, and regulatory compliance costs. For the Year ended December 31, 2019, and the period January 30, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018 we had $124 and $77,608 respectively in R&D expense.

 

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements 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.

 

Revenue Recognition

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASC 606 — Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Under ASC 606, the Company recognizes revenue from the commercial sales of products, licensing agreements and contracts to perform pilot studies by applying the following steps: (1) identify the contract with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price; (4) allocate the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when each performance obligation is satisfied. The company’s main source of revenue comes from online sales with the primary stream coming from Amazon. Amounts invoiced or collected in advance of product delivery or providing services are recorded as deferred revenue. The Company accrues for warranty costs, sales returns, bad debts, and other allowances based on its historical experience. For the year ended December 31, 2019 and the period January 30, 2018 (inception) through December 31, 2018 we had $35,820 and $9,900 respectively in revenue from the sale of our products.

 

Income Taxes

Federal Income taxes are not currently due since we have had losses since inception.

On December 22, 2017, H.R. 1, originally known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, (the “Tax Act”) was enacted.  Among the significant changes to the U.S. Internal Revenue Code, the Tax Act lowers the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate (“Federal Tax Rate”) from 35% to 21% effective January 1, 2018.  The Company will compute its income tax expense for the period January 30, 2018 (inception) through December 31, 2019, using a Federal Tax Rate of 21%.

 

Income taxes are provided based upon the liability method of accounting pursuant to ASC 740-10-25 Income Taxes – Recognition.  Under this approach, deferred income taxes are recorded to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end.  A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets if management does not believe the Company has met the “more likely than not” standard required by ASC 740-10-25-5.

 

Deferred income tax amounts reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax reporting purposes.

 

As of December 31, 2019, we had a net operating loss carry-forward of approximately $(2,434,098) and a deferred tax asset of $511,161 using the statutory rate of 21%. The deferred tax asset may be recognized in future periods, not to exceed 20 years.  However, due to the uncertainty of future events we have booked valuation allowance of $(511,161).  FASB ASC 740 prescribes recognition threshold and measurement attributes for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax

return. FASB ASC 740 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had not taken any tax positions that would require disclosure under FASB ASC 740.

 

Net deferred tax assets consist of the following components as of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018:

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company records stock-based compensation using the fair value method. Equity instruments issued to employees and the cost of the services received as consideration are accounted for in accordance with ASC 718 “Stock Compensation” and are measured and recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued. All transactions with non-employees in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for in accordance with ASC 515 “Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees”, based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.

 

Long Lived Assets

 

Periodically the Company assesses potential impairment of its long-lived assets, which include property, equipment and acquired intangible assets, in accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment.” The Company recognizes impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying values. An impairment loss would be recognized in the amount by which the recorded value of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset, measured by the quoted market price of an asset or an estimate based on the best information available in the circumstances. There were no such losses recognized during the Years ended December 31, 2019 and the period January 30, 2018 (Inception) through December 31, 2018.

 

Property, Equipment and Intangible Assets

Property and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Additions are capitalized and maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Intangible assets consist of acquired web site domains and web site content and are carried at cost, less accumulated amortization.

Depreciation and amortization are provided principally on the straight-line basis method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

The Company is reviewing the effects of following recent updates.  The Company has no expectation that any of these items will have a material effect upon the financial statements.

FASB ASU 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842)” – In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, which requires lessees to recognize almost all leases on their balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability.  For income statement purposes, the FASB retained a dual model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance. Classification will be based on criteria that are largely similar to those applied in current lease accounting, but without explicit bright lines.  Lessor accounting is similar to the current model but has been updated to align with certain changes to the lessee model and the new revenue recognition standard. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We have adopted the above ASU as of December 31, 2019.  

Update 2019-08—Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718) In June 2018, the Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-07, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting, as part of its Simplification Initiative. This Update is effective for companies with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years.

 

On January 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurements (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The amendments in this update modify the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820. Adoption of this ASU did not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

 

All new accounting pronouncements issued but not yet effective are not expected to have a material impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial position with the exception of the updated previously disclosed above, there have been no new accounting pronouncements not yet effective that have significance to our consolidated financial statements.

 NOTE 6 - GOING CONCERN

 

The Company's financial statements are prepared using Generally Accepted Accounting Principles applicable to a going concern that contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, the Company has recently accumulated significant losses and has negative working capital. All of these items raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans with respect to alleviating the adverse financial conditions that caused management to express substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern are as follows:

 

The Company is currently trying to raise new debt or equity to set up and market its line sports beverage products. If the Company is not successful in the development and implementation of a concept which produces positive cash flows from operations, the Company may be forced to continue to raise additional equity or debt financing to fund its ongoing obligations or risk ceasing doing business.

 

There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to achieve its business plans, raise any more required capital or secure the financing necessary to achieve its current operating plan. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plan described in the preceding paragraph and eventually attain profitable operations.

This unique product is designed with scientifically dosed key ingredients to bridge the gap between the current sports drinks filled with sugars that have serve no function, hydration beverages and dietary supplements, without the crash from sugars and jitters from caffeine which eventually leads to a decrease in performance for athletes. BYLT® is not only designed to enhance performance and support the intense physical demand of athletes but be safe and backed by science.

 

This acquisition was accounted for as an acquisition by entities under common control due to the fact that both Elite Performance Holdings Corp. and Elite Beverage International Corp. were and continue to be commonly held by Joey Firestone and Jon McKenzie. The ownership structure of the Company did not change as a result nor did any of its officer’s change positions.

 

As the assets acquired were from an entity under common control, the assets from Elite Beverage International Corp. have been combined at historical cost for all periods presented, with no step-up in basis. See below for the recognition entry for the stock issued for the acquisition:

Likewise, for the period from January 30, 2018 through February 2, 2018, effects of any intra-entity transactions (between the Company and Elite Beverage International Corp.) have been eliminated, resulting in operations for the period prior to Acquisition date essentially being on the same basis as operations post Acquisition date.

There are no reportable events under this item for the year ended December 31, 2019.

 

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

 

a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide a reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and in reaching a reasonable level of assurance, management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Management designed the disclosure controls and procedures to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

 

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our CEO and CFO, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report. Based upon that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

 

b) Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in the Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f). A system of internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, the Company’s management has evaluated the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2019, based on the criteria established in a report entitled “Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission” and the interpretive guidance issued by the Commission in Release No. 34-55929. Based on this evaluation, the Company’s management has evaluated and concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was ineffective as of December 31, 2019, and identified the following material weaknesses:

 

·there is a lack of accounting personnel with the requisite knowledge of GAAP and the financial reporting requirements of the SEC. 

 

·there are insufficient written policies and procedures to insure the correct application of accounting and financial reporting with respect to the current requirements of GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements. 

 

·there is a lack of segregation of duties, in that we only had one person performing all accounting-related duties. 

 

·There is no formal written policy established for the approval, identification and authorization of related party transactions.

 

 Notwithstanding the existence of these material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, our management believes that the financial statements included in its reports fairly present in all material respects the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

 

The Company will continue its assessment on a quarterly basis. We plan to hire personnel and resources to address these material weaknesses. We believe these issues can be solved with hiring accounting support and plan to do so as soon as we have funds available for this.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  The Company’s registered public accounting firm was not required to issue an attestation on its internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The Company will continue to evaluate the effectiveness of internal controls and procedures on an on-going basis.

 

c) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act) during the year ended December 31, 2019, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Term of Office

 

Our directors are appointed for a one-year term to hold office until the next annual general meeting of our shareholders or until removed from office in accordance with our bylaws. Our officers are appointed by our board of directors and hold office until removed by the board, except to the extent governed by an employment agreement.

 

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

 

To the best of our knowledge, during the past ten years, none of the following occurred with respect to our present or former director, executive officer, or employee: (1) any bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time; (2) any conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject to a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses); (3) being subject to any order, judgment or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily


33


enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his or her involvement in any type of business, securities or banking activities; and (4) being found by a court of competent jurisdiction (in a civil action), the SEC or the Commodities Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended or vacated.

 

Meetings of Our Board of Directors

 

Our Board did not hold any meetings during the most recently completed fiscal year end. Various matters were approved by written consent, which in each case was executed by the Board.

 

Committees of the Board

 

We do not currently have a compensation committee, nominating committee, or stock plan committee.

 

Audit Committee

 

We do not have a separately designated standing audit committee. The entire Board performs the functions of an audit committee, but no written charter governs the actions of the Board when performing the functions of what would generally be performed by an audit committee. The Board approves the selection of our independent accountants and meets and interacts with the independent accountants to discuss issues related to financial reporting. In addition, the Board reviews the scope and results of the audit with the independent accountants, reviews with management and the independent accountants our annual operating results, considers the adequacy of our internal accounting procedures and considers other auditing and accounting matters including fees to be paid to the independent auditor and the performance of the independent auditor.

 

Nominating Committee

 

Our Board does not maintain a nominating committee. As a result, no written charter governs the director nomination process. Our size and the size of our Board, at this time, do not require a separate nominating committee.

 

When evaluating director nominees, our directors consider the following factors:

 

·the appropriate size of our Board of Directors; 

·our needs with respect to the particular talents and experience of our Directors; 

·the knowledge, skills and experience of nominees, including experience in finance, administration or public service, in light of prevailing business conditions and the knowledge, skills and experience already possessed by other members of the Board; 

·experience in political affairs; 

·experience with accounting rules and practices; and 

·the desire to balance the benefit of continuity with the periodic injection of the fresh perspective provided by new Board members. 

 

Our goal is to assemble a Board that brings together a variety of perspectives and skills derived from high quality business and professional experience.

 

Other than the foregoing, there are no stated minimum criteria for director nominees, although the Board may also consider such other factors as it may deem are in our best interests as well as our stockholders. In addition, the Board identifies nominees by first evaluating the current members of the Board willing to continue in service. Current members of the Board with skills and experience that are relevant to our business and who are willing to continue in service are considered for re-nomination. If any member of the Board does not wish to continue in service or if the Board decides not to re-nominate a member for re-election, the Board then identifies the desired skills and experience of a new nominee in light of the criteria above. Current members of the Board are polled for suggestions as to individuals meeting the criteria described above. The Board may also engage in research to identify qualified individuals. To date, we have not engaged third parties to identify or evaluate or assist in identifying potential nominees, although we reserve the right in the future to retain a third-party search firm, if necessary.

 

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

 

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company’s directors, executive officers and persons who beneficially own 10% or more of a class of securities registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act to file reports of beneficial ownership and changes in beneficial ownership with the SEC. Directors, executive officers and greater than 10% stockholders are required by the rules and regulations of the SEC to furnish the Company with copies of all reports filed by them in compliance with Section 16(a).

 

Based solely on our review of certain reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the reports required to be filed with respect to transactions in our common stock during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, were timely.

Code of Ethics

 

We do not currently have a code of ethics that applies to our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Accounting Officer or Controller, or persons performing similar functions.  Because we have only limited business operations and officers and directors, we believe a code of ethics would have limited utility. We intend to adopt such a code of ethics as our business operations expand and we have more directors, officers and employees.

Item 11. Executive Compensation.

 

Overview

 

The following is a discussion of our program for compensating our named executive officers and directors. Currently, we do not have a compensation committee, and as such, our board of directors is responsible for determining the compensation of our named executive officers.

 

Compensation Program Objectives and Philosophy

 

The primary goals of our policy of executive compensation are to attract and retain the most talented and dedicated executives possible, to assure that our executives are compensated effectively in a manner consistent with our strategy and competitive practice and to align executive compensation with the achievement of our short- and long-term business objectives.

 

The Board considers a variety of factors in determining compensation of executives, including their particular background and circumstances, such as their training and prior relevant work experience, their success in attracting and retaining savvy and technically proficient managers and employees, increasing our revenues, broadening our product line offerings, managing our costs and otherwise helping to lead our Company through a period of rapid growth.

 

In the near future, we expect that our Board will form a compensation committee charged with the oversight of executive compensation plans, policies and programs of our Company and with the full authority to determine and approve the compensation of our chief executive officer and make recommendations with respect to the compensation of our other executive officers. We expect that our compensation committee will continue to follow the general approach to executive compensation that we have followed to date, rewarding superior individual and company performance with commensurate compensation.

 

Employees

Currently, we do not have any additional employees besides management. Employee agreements are only in place for Joey Firestone. Officers are devoting their time to the company in developing our products. Management is presently reviewing the near-term possibility of engaging qualified, full-time personnel to assist in developing and marketing our products. We may use non-employee consultants to assist us in formulating a research and development strategy, for designing, equipping and staffing future manufacturing facilities and for business development. We may find it necessary to periodically hire part-time clerical help on an as-needed basis.

Consultants and advisors usually have the right to terminate their relationships on short notice. Loss of some of these key consultants or advisors could interrupt or delay development of one or more of our products or otherwise adversely affect our business plans.

 

We expect to continue to need qualified personnel with experience in performance beverages. We may have difficulty in obtaining qualified technical personnel as there is strong competition for such personnel from other companies, as well as universities and research institutions. Our business could be materially harmed if we are unable to recruit and retain qualified administrative and executive personnel to support our expanding activities, or if one or more members of our management staff were unable or unwilling to continue their association with us.

 

Retirement Benefits

 

Currently, we do not provide any Company sponsored retirement benefits to any employee, including the named executive officers.

 

Perquisites

 

We have historically provided only modest perquisites to our named executive officers. We do not view perquisites as a significant element of our compensation structure, but do believe that perquisites can be useful in attracting, motivating and retaining the executive talent for which we compete. It is expected that our historical practices regarding perquisites will continue and will be subject to periodic review by our board of directors.

Director Independence

 

The common stock of the Company is not currently quoted on the OTC Markets.  However, if we obtain a trading symbol, our intention is to have our common stock quoted on the OTC Markets Pink Sheets, which is a quotation system that currently does not have director independence requirements.  On an annual basis, each director and executive officer will be obligated to disclose any transactions with the Company in which a director or executive officer, or any member of his or her immediate family, have a direct or indirect material interest in accordance with Item 407(a) of Regulation S-K. Following completion of these disclosures, the Board will make an annual determination as to the independence of each director using the current standards for “independence” that satisfy the criteria for the NASDAQ.

 

At this time, the Company does not have any independent directors.
