EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

This Amendment No. 1 (this “Amendment”) to Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2018, amends Pulse Evolution Group, Inc.’s (formerly Recall Studios, Inc.) (the “Company”) Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2018, which was originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 10, 2018 (the “Original Filing”).

 

In connection with the preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company identified inadvertent errors in the accounting for deferred tax liabilities relating to the Company’s acquisition of Evolution AI Corporation (“Evolution AI”) in August 2018.

 

This Amendment is being filed solely to restate the financial statements (i) for the accounting error described above and as further described in Notes 1 and 3 to the financial statements and (ii) for measurement period adjustments also related to the Company’s acquisition of Evolution AI and as further described in Notes 1, 3 and 5. These adjustments had no effect on earnings or cash flows for any of the periods presented. No changes were made to Item 4. Controls and Procedures as our disclosure controls and procedures were already not considered effective.

 

Generally, no changes have been made to the Original Filing other than (i) to add the information as described above, (ii) to update the cover page to this Amendment, and (iii) to provide updated certifications. This Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Filing. This Amendment speaks as of the date of the Original Filing and does not modify or update in any way the disclosures made in the Original Filing, except as required to reflect the revisions discussed above.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements regarding our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “seeks,” “estimates” and similar expressions or variations of such words are intended to identify forward-looking statements, but are not deemed to represent an all-inclusive means of identifying forward-looking statements as denoted in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Additionally, statements concerning future matters are forward-looking statements.

 

Although forward-looking statements in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q reflect the good faith judgment of our management, such statements can only be based on facts and factors currently known by us. Consequently, forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties and actual results and outcomes may differ materially from the results and outcomes discussed in or anticipated by the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences in results and outcomes include, without limitation, those specifically addressed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our annual report on Form 10-K, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q and in other reports that we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). You are urged not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

 

We file reports with the SEC. The SEC maintains a website (www.sec.gov) that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC, including us. You can also read and copy any materials we file with, or furnish to, the SEC at the SEC’s Public Reference Room at 100 F Street, NE, Washington, DC 20549. You can obtain additional information about the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330.

Note 1 - Organization and Basis of Operations

 

Nature of Business

 

We are a market leader in the emerging virtual human likeness space, and the foremost developer of hyper-realistic digital humans - computer generated assets that appear to be human and can perform in live shows, virtual reality, augmented reality, holographic, 3D stereoscopic, web, mobile, interactive and artificial intelligence applications.

 

We believe that digital humans will be ubiquitous in society, culture and industry. In the last decade, hyper-realistic digital humans have performed in movies such as The Curious Case of Benjamin Button or on stage such as the virtual performance of a digital Tupac Shakur at the Coachella Valley Music Festival. We expect that, in years to come, digital humans will not only perform for audiences on stage and in film, but they will also represent individual consumers as digital likeness avatars, in realistic and fantasy form, appearing and interacting on the consumer’s behalf in electronic and mobile communication, social media, video game, virtual reality, and augmented reality. The Company’s long-term goal is to be the ‘face’ of artificial intelligence, to provide a human form to interactive artificially intelligent computer beings that will be common in society, providing useful information and services to people in diverse industries, such as education, health care, telecommunications, defense, transportation and entertainment.

 

Our leadership team is currently focused on applications of digital humans in entertainment. We believe the entertainment industry provides us with attractive near-term opportunities to put digital humans to work in proven performance-oriented business models, while also allowing us to use the visibility of our globally recognized celebrities to showcase our digital human technologies and their applications across other industries. Accordingly, our current business plan is to generate revenues from our digital human representations of three of the world’s best-known late celebrities - Michael Jackson, Elvis Presley and Marilyn Monroe - in full length entertainment experiences, brand marketing events and digital products. The Company has a long-term agreement with Company shareholder, the Estate of Michael Jackson, to share in the revenues of any commercial use of the digital likeness of Michael Jackson. The Company is also in negotiations regarding the amendment and re-instatement of rights agreements relating to the intellectual property of two other Company shareholders, the Estate of Marilyn Monroe and Authentic Brands Group / Elvis Presley Enterprises.

 

We believe our specific business opportunity will be driven by the rapid evolution of the methods by which people access information and content through various forms of interactive electronic media. We believe that we are moving toward a world in which we will simply ask a computer a question and we will be given an answer, by a hyper-realistic digital human who possesses a universe of accurate and relevant information. Through our continued development of the world’s most advanced human animation technology, and our collaboration with the larger community of artificial intelligence pioneers, we expect that we will do more than just put a face on ‘AI.’ We intend to build your most knowledgeable teacher, your most trusted advisor, and in a digital world that reveals more possibilities each day, maybe even your best friend.

 

Company History

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that it will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. As reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $18,295,687 at September 30, 2018 and incurred a net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 of $7,142,257 and utilized net cash used in operating activities of $2,461,968. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date that the financial statements are issued. In addition, the Company’s independent public accounting firm in its audit report to the financial statements included in the 2017 Annual Report expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Management estimates that the current funds on hand and raising capital through proceeds from the sale of common stock subscriptions will be sufficient to continue operations through 2018. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to execute its strategy and in its ability to raise additional funds. Management is currently seeking additional funds, primarily through the issuance of equity securities for cash to operate its business. Management is also monetizing the Company’s intellectual property and seeks to increase operational revenues through its myriad applications which are available on various platforms. No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available, or operational revenues, or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing or cause substantial dilution for our stock holders, in case or equity financing.

 

Restatement

 

In connection with the preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, the Company identified an error whereby, the deferred tax liability on a temporary tax difference between tax and accounting basis on intangible assets had not been recognized. This error resulted in an understatement of the deferred tax liability and goodwill by $37.0 million.

 

This Amendment is being filed solely to restate the condensed consolidated financial statements (i) for the accounting error described above and (ii) for measurement period adjustments also related to the Company’s acquisition of Evolution AI.

 

A reconciliation of the previously reported condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2018 and the restated September 30, 2018 condensed consolidated balance sheet is as follows:

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Reclassifications

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include certain reclassifications of amounts in the December 31, 2017 financial statements in order to conform to the September 30, 2018 presentation. There were no changes to total assets, total liabilities or total stockholders’ equity.

 

Reverse Stock Split

 

In January 2017, the Company effected a 1-for-10,000 reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock. All shares and per-share amounts have been retroactively restated as of the earliest periods presented to reflect the stock split.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures 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. Those estimates and assumptions include depreciable lives of property and equipment, analysis of impairments of recorded goodwill, accruals for potential liabilities, assumptions made in valuing derivative liabilities and assumptions made in valuing stock instruments issued for services.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The Company’s consolidated subsidiaries and/or entities are as follows:

 

Name of consolidated subsidiary or entity

  State or other
jurisdiction of incorporation
or organization
  Date of incorporation or formation (date of
acquisition, if applicable)
 

Attributable

interest

 
York Productions, LLC   The State of Florida   October 22, 2008 (June 1, 2010)     60 %
                 
York Productions II, LLC   The State of Florida   June 13, 2013     60 %
                 
Recall Studios, Inc.   The State of Nevada   March 30, 2016 (July 27, 2016)     100 %
                 
Evolution AI Corporation   The State of Florida   November 1, 2017(August 8, 2018)     99.7 %
                 
Pulse Evolution Corporation   The State of Nevada   May 13, 2013(August 8, 2018)     58 %

 

The accompanying financial statements are consolidated and include the accounts of the Company and its majority owned subsidiaries. The consolidated accounts include 100% of the assets and liabilities of our majority owned subsidiaries, and the ownership interests of minority investors are recorded as a minority interest. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated. York Productions, LLC and York Productions II, LLC are currently inactive. On June 15, 2017, Recall Studios, Inc. entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement with Metropolitan Sound + Vision LLC, a South Carolina limited liability company. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company agreed to sell to Metro all of the shares of common stock of S&G Holdings, Inc., a Tennessee corporation doing business as High Five Entertainment owned by the Company, which constitute 75% of the issued and outstanding shares of S&G. The assets, liabilities and results of operations of S&G have been reclassified to discontinued operations for financial statement presentation in 2017.

 

The assets, liabilities and results of operations of Evolution AI Corporation have been consolidated from the date of acquisition and included in financial statement presentation as of September 30, 2018. The accompanying consolidated financial statements also include the accounts of Pulse Evolution Corporation (Pulse), from the date of acquisition until September 30, 2018. Pulse accounts includes its wholly owned subsidiaries including Pulse Entertainment Corporation, The Kopp Initiative, LLC, Pulse Digital Human Labs, Pulse Japan and Pulse Biologic, After-August Inc, EPLS, all of which had no activity during the period ended. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company follows the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments and to measure the fair value of its financial instruments. The FASB Accounting Standards Codification establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

 

Level 1 Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.
   
Level 2 Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date.
   
Level 3 Pricing inputs that are generally unobservable inputs and not corroborated by market data.

Recall Studios, Inc.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements For the

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018 and 2017

(Unaudited)

 

Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.

 

The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.

 

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, other assets, accounts payable and accrued payroll, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments. The carrying values of notes payable and convertible notes approximate their fair values due to the fact that the interest rates on these obligations are based on prevailing market interest rates.

 

The carrying amount of the Company’s derivative liability of $2,393,891 as of September 30, 2018 and $1,867,000 as of December 31, 2017 was based on Level 3 measurements. The carrying amount of the Company’s warrant liability of $3,714,541 as of September 30, 2018 and $0 as of December 31, 2017 was also based on Level 3 measurements.

 

Non-Controlling Interest

 

Non-controlling interest represents the non-controlling interest holders’ proportionate share of the equity of the Company’s majority-owned subsidiaries. Non-controlling interest is adjusted for the non-controlling interest holders’ proportionate share of the earnings or losses and other comprehensive income (loss) and the non-controlling interest continues to be attributed its share of losses even if that attribution results in a deficit non-controlling interest balance. All Non-controlling interest was eliminated as part of the sale of S&G Holdings, Inc., a Tennessee corporation doing business as High Five Entertainment in 2017. Non-Controlling interest as of September 30, 2018 reflects 42% of the common stock of Pulse Evolution Corporation that the Company did not own. Non-Controlling of Evolution AI Corporation of 0.3% was excluded as its impact was deemed insignificant to the financial statements as a whole.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the related asset. Computers are depreciated over five years. Furniture and fixtures are depreciated over seven years. Impairment is reviewed on an annual basis and no impairment charge was necessary at September 30, 2018 or December 31, 2017.

 

Acquired & Licensed Technology

 

The Company acquired technology assets as a result of its acquisition of EAI and Pulse. Amortization is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of 12 years of the related assets. Impairment is reviewed on an annual basis and no impairment charge was necessary at September 30, 2018.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company’s Recall Studios subsidiary produces software applications for third-parties on a consulting basis. Effective January 1, 2018, the Company retroactively adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (the “FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which has no material impact on revenue reported on the years presented within these financial statements. 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 adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires that upon revenue being generated, the Company will disaggregate revenue into categories that depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company periodically issues stock options and warrants to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing costs. The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to employees based on the authoritative guidance provided by FASB ASC 718 where the value of the award is measured on the date of grant and recognized as compensation expense on the straight-line basis over the vesting period. The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to non-employees in accordance with the authoritative guidance of the FASB ASC 718 where the value of the stock compensation is based upon the measurement date as determined at either a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete. Options and warrants granted to non-employees are revalued each reporting period to determine the amount to be recorded as an expense in the respective period. As the options and warrants vest, they are valued on each vesting date and an adjustment is recorded for the difference between the value already recorded and the then current value on the date of vesting. In certain circumstances where there are no future performance requirements by the non-employee, option and warrant grants are immediately vested and the total stock-based compensation charge is recorded in the period of the measurement date.

 

The fair value of the Company’s stock option and warrant grants are estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing model, which uses certain assumptions related to risk-free interest rates, expected volatility, expected life of the stock options or warrants, and future dividends. Compensation expense is recorded based upon the value derived from the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing model, and based on actual experience. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes- Merton Option Pricing model could materially affect compensation expense recorded in future periods.

 

Income (Loss) Per Share

 

Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution, using the treasury stock method that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the income (loss) of the Company. In computing diluted income (loss) per share, the treasury stock method assumes that outstanding options and warrants are exercised and the proceeds are used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. Options and warrants may have a dilutive effect under the treasury stock method only when the average market price of the common stock during the period exceeds the exercise price of the options and warrants.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the dilutive impact of 239 warrants, Series C Preferred stock that can convert into 2,524,982 shares of common stock, Series X Preferred stock that can convert into 450,000,000 shares of common stock and notes that can convert into 5,276,810 shares of common stock have been excluded because their impact on the loss per share is anti-dilutive.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the dilutive impact of a note payable that can convert into 13 shares of common stock and warrants exercisable into 239 shares of common stock have been excluded because their impact on the income per share is anti-dilutive. For the nine months ended September 30 2017, the calculation of diluted earnings per share included convertible Series B Preferred stock that can convert into 2,000,000 shares of common stock, convertible Series C Preferred stock that can convert into 2,848,982 shares of common stock, and notes that can convert into 2,541,748 shares of common stock.

 

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

 

    Nine months ended
September 30,
    Three months ended September 30,  
    2018     2017     2018     2017  
Earnings per share - Basic                                
Income (Loss) for the period   $ (7,142,257 )   $ 10,847,000     $ (4,260,257 )   $ (808,000 )
Basic average common stock outstanding     103,173,589       32,156,987       142,576,353       79,393,777

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses a Black- Scholes-Merton models, when the number of shares issuable is fixed, and a Binomial Lattice model, when the number of shares issuable is variable, to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates through the September 30, 2018 reporting date.

 

The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities on issuance and in subsequent periods, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014- 09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive revenue recognition standard that will supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under current U.S. GAAP and replace it with a principle-based approach for determining revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 will require that companies recognize revenue based on the value of transferred goods or services as they occur in the contract. The ASU also will require additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. ASU 2014-09 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted only in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods therein. Entities will be able to transition to the standard either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. The Company has adopted ASU 2014-09 in the first quarter of 2018. The adoption of ASU 2014-09 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases. ASU 2016-02 requires a lessee to record a right of use asset and a corresponding lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. ASU 2016- 02 is effective for all interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-02 on the Company’s financial statements and disclosures.

 

On June 20, 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2018-07, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. ASU 2018-07 is intended to reduce cost and complexity and to improve financial reporting for share-based payments to nonemployees (for example, service providers, external legal counsel, suppliers, etc.). Under the new standard, companies will no longer be required to value non-employee awards differently from employee awards. Meaning that companies will value all equity classified awards at their grant date under ASC 718 and forgo revaluing the award after this date. The Company has chosen to early adopt this standard.

 

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company retroactively adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (the “FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which has no material impact on revenue reported on the years presented within these financial statements. 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. 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.

There was no impact on the Company’s financial statements as a result of adopting ASC 606 for the period ended September 30, 2018 and year ended December 2017.

 

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statement presentation or disclosures.

 

Note 3 - Acquisition of Evolution AI and associated Goodwill on Business Combination

 

On August 8, 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of 99.7% of Evolution AI (“EAI”) and 58% of Pulse Evolution (Pulse) for a purchase value consideration of $211,500,000, by issuing 1,000,000 Series X preferred shares that would be convertible into 450,000,000 shares of common stock with a traded market value of $0.47 per share. (Further details of the share exchange are outlined in Company filings in August 2018 & October 2018 and also within this 10-Q)

 

Upon acquisition, EAI became our wholly-owned subsidiary and Pulse became a majority owned subsidiary. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination. This method requires, among other things, that assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date.

 

The Company engaged an independent 3 rd party firm to assess the fair value of the technology assets acquired from EAI and Pulse and the purchase price allocation and the resulting goodwill is summarized in the table below.

 

The Company identified a measurement period adjustment related to its acquisition of EAI. The Company recorded a measurement period adjustment to reduce acquisition date accrued expenses by $1.3 million, which resulted in a corresponding decrease to goodwill.

 

A reconciliation of the previously reported purchase price allocation as of September 30, 2018 and the restated September 30, 2018 purchase price allocation is as follows (in thousands):

Note 9 - Warrant Liability

 

The FASB has issued authoritative guidance whereby instruments which do not have fixed settlement provisions are deemed to be derivative instruments. Certain warrants issued to investors and conversion features of notes payable did not have fixed settlement provisions because either their exercise prices will be lowered if the Company issues securities at lower prices in the future or the conversion price is variable. In addition, since the number of shares to be issued is not explicitly limited, the Company is unable to conclude that enough authorized and unissued shares are available to share settle the conversion option. In accordance with the FASB authoritative guidance, the conversion feature of the notes was separated from the host contract (i.e., the notes) and the fair value of the warrants have been recognized as a derivative and will be re-measured at the end of every reporting period with the change in value reported in the statement of operations.

 

In January 2016, Pulse issued 36,678,028 warrants with anti-dilution provisions at an exercise price of $1 to XIX Entertainment, a company controlled by Mr. Simon Fuller, in connection with his leadership role in the Elvis project. The mark-to-market gain on the warrant since acquisition until September 30, 2018 is $617,996. The warrant liabilities were valued at September 30, 2018 using a Black-Scholes-Merton model with the following average assumptions:

As of September 30, 2018, and December 31, 2017, the total outstanding note balance amounted to $434,000 and $434,000, and accrued interest of $156,223 and $140,000, respectively. The notes are currently past due.

On December 28, 2016, the Company issued an unsecured convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $50,000 to a shareholder. The note bears interest at 3% per annum, is due on March 24, 2017, and is convertible into shares of common stock at a conversion price of $4,000 per share. The note is currently past due. As of September 30, 2018, and December 31, 2017, accrued interest of $2,666 and $1,000 is due, respectively.

 

Note 12- Derivative Liability

 

The FASB has issued authoritative guidance whereby instruments which do not have fixed settlement provisions are deemed to be derivative instruments. Certain warrants issued to investors and conversion features of notes payable did not have fixed settlement provisions because either their exercise prices will be lowered if the Company issues securities at lower prices in the future or the conversion price is variable. In addition, since the number of shares to be issued is not explicitly limited, the Company is unable to conclude that enough authorized and unissued shares are available to share settle the conversion option. In accordance with the FASB authoritative guidance, the conversion feature of the notes was separated from the host contract (i.e., the notes) and the fair value of the warrants have been recognized as a derivative and will be re-measured at the end of every reporting period with the change in value reported in the statement of operations.

 

The derivative liabilities were valued at the following dates using a Binomial Lattice Model with the following average assumptions:

 

    September 30, 2018     December 31, 2017  
Stock Price   $ 0.48     $ .31  
Risk free interest rate     2.19-2.59 %       0.84 %
Expected Volatility     223 %     476 %
Expected life in years     0.50-0.92       0.25-0.79  
Expected dividend yield     0 %     0 %
                 
Fair Value - Note Conversion Feature     2,393,891       1,867,000  
Total   $ 2,393,891     $ 1,867,000  

 

The risk-free interest rate was based on rates established by the Federal Reserve Bank. The Company uses the historical volatility of its common stock to estimate the future volatility for its common stock. The expected life of the derivative securities was determined by the remaining contractual life of the derivative instrument. For derivative instruments that already matured, the Company used the estimated life. The expected dividend yield was based on the fact that the Company has not paid dividends to its common stockholders in the past and does not expect to pay dividends to its common stockholders in the future.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company recorded $3,796,132 in derivative liability as a result of conversion features from the issuance of new convertible notes payables (see Note 11). In addition, the Company recorded a gain of $3,269,545 to account for the change in fair value of the derivative liabilities related to the conversion features from December 31, 2017 to September 30, 2018. As of September 30, 2018, the derivative liability amounted to $2,393,891.

Note 14 - Evolution AI Corporation Share Exchange Agreement

 

Series X Preferred Stock

 

On August 6, 2018, we amended our Articles of Incorporation as filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Florida to designate the Series X Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series X Preferred Stock”), as a series of preferred stock of the Company. 1,000,000 shares of Series X Preferred Stock are authorized.

 

Holders of shares of Series X Preferred Stock (each, a “Series X Holder”) are entitled to receive dividends and distributions as and when paid on the shares of our common stock, on an as-converted basis, assuming that such shares of Series X Preferred Stock had been converted into shares of common stock, as described below, immediately prior to the payment of such dividend or distribution. Series X Holders are also entitled to vote on an as converted basis with the shares of our common stock, and voting with the common stock as one class, assuming that such shares of Series X Preferred Stock had been converted into shares of common stock immediately prior to the record date for such vote. The Series X Preferred Stock does not have any preferences in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, either voluntarily or involuntarily, a merger or consolidation of the Company wherein the Company is not the surviving entity, or a sale of all or substantially all of our assets (each, a “Liquidation Event”), but will participate with the common stock on any distributions made to the common stock in connection with any Liquidation Event on an as converted basis, assuming that such shares of Series X Preferred Stock had been converted into shares of common stock immediately prior to the payment of such dividend or distribution.

 

Shares of Series X Preferred Stock are not currently convertible into common stock, however each share of Series X Preferred Stock will automatically convert into shares of common stock upon the effectiveness of an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation following the date of the issuance of any shares of Series X Preferred Stock (the “Issuance Date”) which effects a reverse stock split of our common stock or increases the authorized shares of our common stock, or a combination thereof, by an amount sufficient to enable the conversion of all issued and outstanding shares of Series X Preferred Stock. Each whole share of Series X Preferred Stock then issued and outstanding shall, automatically and without any further action of any Series X Holder, convert into 450 shares of our common stock, with any fractional shares of Series X Stock being converted into a proportionate number of shares of our common stock, and with any fractional shares of common stock issuable as a result of such conversion being rounded up to the next nearest whole share of common stock. No Series X Holder will have any right to voluntarily effect conversions of the Series X Preferred Stock.

Recall Studios, Inc.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements For the

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018 and 2017

(Unaudited)

 

In the event of any forward or reverse split of the common stock following the Issuance Date, the conversion ratios as set forth above will be proportionately and equitably adjusted automatically. In the event that at any time or from time to time after the Issuance Date, the common stock issuable upon the conversion of the Series X Preferred Stock is changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of stock, then and in each such event each Series X Holder will have the right upon conversion to receive the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities, cash and property receivable upon such recapitalization, reclassification or other change, by holders of the number of shares of common stock which the Series X Holder would have received had it converted such shares immediately prior to such recapitalization, reclassification or other change, at the conversion ratio then in effect. If at any time or from time to time after the Issuance Date there is a capital reorganization of our common stock then, as a part of such reorganization, provisions shall be made so that the Series X Holders will be entitled to receive upon conversion of their shares of Series X Preferred Stock the number of shares of stock or other securities or property to which a holder of the number of shares of common stock deliverable upon conversion would have been entitled to receive had the Series X Holder converted such shares immediately prior to such capital reorganization, at the conversion ratio then in effect.

 

Shares of Series X Preferred Stock converted into common stock may not be reissued by the Company and no fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares of common stock will be issued upon the conversion of the Series X Preferred Stock. As to any fraction of a share of common stock as to which a Series X Holder would otherwise be entitled upon such conversion, we will round such fractional share of common stock up to the next whole share of common stock.

 

The issuance of shares on conversion of the Series X Preferred Stock shall be made without charge to any Series X Holder for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such Series X Conversion Shares, which shall be paid by us.

 

Closing Share Exchange Agreement

 

On August 8, 2018, the Company entered into the Closing Share Exchange Agreement and Joinder (the “Closing Agreement”) dated August 8, 2018 by and among the Company, EAI and the shareholders of EAI (the “EAI Shareholders”), which operated to amend the Exchange Agreement in certain respects and to provide for the closing of the transactions contemplated therein.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Closing Agreement, the Company agreed to acquire up to all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of EAI, representing 100% of EAI’s issued and outstanding shares of stock, from the EAI Shareholders in exchange for the issuance of one share of the Company’s Series X preferred stock (the “Series X Stock”) for each 31.645 shares of EAI common stock issued and outstanding, with any fractional shares of Series X Stock issuable therefore being rounded to the nearest whole shares of Series X Stock (the “Exchange”), such that an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of Series X Stock shall be issued for 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of stock of EAI, with each whole share of Series X Stock originally being convertible into 450 shares of the Company’s common stock, resulting in an aggregate of 450,000,000 shares of Company common stock issuable upon conversion of all of the Series X Stock (prior to any adjustments as set forth in the Closing Agreement). As a result of the Exchange, EAI became a majority owned subsidiary of the Company. As of the closing date, the Company owned approximately 99.7% of EAI’s outstanding shares. The parties intend that the Exchange will qualify as a reorganization under the provisions of Section 368(a)(1)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Exchange closed on August 8, 2018.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Closing Agreement, all but one of those EAI Shareholders that did not sign, and were not parties to, the Exchange Agreement became parties to the Closing Agreement upon execution of the Closing Agreement, as though original parties to the Exchange Agreement.

 

Following the closing of the Exchange, the Company intends to complete a reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock on such terms as determined by the Company’s board of directors. As of September 30, 2018, the Company’s board of directors had not yet determined the ratio for the reverse split.

 

In the Closing Agreement, the parties acknowledge and agree that the Company did not have, as of the closing date of the Exchange, sufficient shares of Company common stock authorized to enable conversion of all of the shares of Series X Stock issued in the Exchange. Following the closing, in the event that following the Reverse Split, the Company still does not have sufficient shares of common stock authorized so as to enable the conversion of all of the shares of Series X Stock to be issued hereunder, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect an amendment of the Company’s articles of incorporation to increase the authorized shares of common stock. The conversion of the Series X Stock into common stock will occur automatically upon such an authorized share increase.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Closing Agreement, in any vote of the Company’s shareholders required to effect the Reverse Split or an authorized share increase, the EAI Shareholders agreed to vote all shares of Company common stock and Series X Stock held by them “for” approval of the Reverse Split, the authorized share increase and any amendments of the Company’s articles as required in connection therewith.

 

The Company also agreed to use its commercially reasonable efforts to register shares of the Company’s common stock issued upon conversion of the Series X Stock upon completion of the authorized share increase in an amount not to exceed 30% of the total outstanding shares of stock, or such amount as the SEC requires in order to qualify as a re-sale registration, to be apportioned among the EAI Shareholders pro rata.

Pursuant to the Agreement, at the closing of the Transaction, the Company was to deliver to Metro 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of S&G owned by the Company, and Metro was required to pay for such stock as follows: An initial payment of $10,000 was required to be made at the closing, and thereafter, at the end of each fiscal quarter, beginning at the end the third fiscal quarter of 2017, Metro shall pay the Company 5% of gross revenues collected during the quarter by Metro via the exploitation of S&G’s assets, up to a lifetime maximum of $590,000.

 

The Agreement requires Metro to use its best professional efforts to generate revenue from the exploitation of S&G’s assets, and if the Company has not received a total of at least $265,000 of the $590,000 lifetime maximum purchase price from Metro before July 1, 2022, the Company has the right to repurchase the stock and assets of the S&G from Metro for $10,000.

 

The Company recognized a gain on the sale of S&G of $57,000 consisting of the assumption by the buyer of the net liabilities of S&G of $236,000 offsets by the elimination of the non-controlling interest of S&G of $189,000 and the purchase price consideration of $10,000.

Unless otherwise indicated, references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to “we,” “us,” “our” and the “Company” are to Recall Studios, Inc. and its subsidiaries, unless the context requires otherwise. The following discussion and analysis by our management of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements and the accompanying related notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our audited financial statements and related notes and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

Overview

 

We are a market leader in the emerging virtual human likeness space, and the foremost developer of hyper-realistic digital humans - computer generated assets that appear to be human and can perform in live shows, virtual reality, augmented reality, holographic, 3D stereoscopic, web, mobile, interactive and artificial intelligence applications.

 

We believe that digital humans will be ubiquitous in society, culture and industry. In the last decade, hyper-realistic digital humans have performed in movies such as The Curious Case of Benjamin Button or on stage such as the virtual performance of a digital Tupac Shakur at the Coachella Valley Music Festival. We expect that, in years to come, digital humans will not only perform for audiences on stage and in film, but they will also represent individual consumers as digital likeness avatars, in realistic and fantasy form, appearing and interacting on the consumer’s behalf in electronic and mobile communication, social media, video game, virtual reality, and augmented reality. The Company’s long-term goal is to be the ‘face’ of artificial intelligence, to provide a human form to interactive artificially intelligent computer beings that will be common in society, providing useful information and services to people in diverse industries, such as education, health care, telecommunications, defense, transportation and entertainment.

 

Our leadership team is currently focused on applications of digital humans in entertainment. We believe the entertainment industry provides us with attractive near-term opportunities to put digital humans to work in proven performance-oriented business models, while also allowing us to use the visibility of our globally recognized celebrities to showcase our digital human technologies and their applications across other industries. Accordingly, our current business plan is to generate revenues from our digital human representations of three of the world’s best-known late celebrities - Michael Jackson, Elvis Presley and Marilyn Monroe - in full length entertainment experiences, brand marketing events and digital products. The Company has a long-term agreement with Company shareholder, the Estate of Michael Jackson, to share in the revenues of any commercial use of the digital likeness of Michael Jackson. The Company is also in negotiations regarding the amendment and re-instatement of rights agreements relating to the intellectual property of two other Company shareholders, the Estate of Marilyn Monroe and Authentic Brands Group / Elvis Presley Enterprises.

 

We believe our specific business opportunity will be driven by the rapid evolution of the methods by which people access information and content through various forms of interactive electronic media. We believe that we are moving toward a world in which we will simply ask a computer a question and we will be given an answer, by a hyper-realistic digital human who possesses a universe of accurate and relevant information. Through our continued development of the world’s most advanced human animation technology, and our collaboration with the larger community of artificial intelligence pioneers, we expect that we will do more than just put a face on ‘AI.’ We intend to build your most knowledgeable teacher, your most trusted advisor, and in a digital world that reveals more possibilities each day, maybe even your best friend.

 

Recent Developments

 

Series X Preferred Stock

 

On August 6, 2018, we amended our Articles of Incorporation as filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Florida to designate the Series X Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series X Preferred Stock”), as a series of preferred stock of the Company. 1,000,000 shares of Series X Preferred Stock are authorized.

 

Holders of shares of Series X Preferred Stock (each, a “Series X Holder”) are entitled to receive dividends and distributions as and when paid on the shares of our common stock, on an as-converted basis, assuming that such shares of Series X Preferred Stock had been converted into shares of common stock, as described below, immediately prior to the payment of such dividend or distribution. Series X Holders are also entitled to vote on an as converted basis with the shares of our common stock, and voting with the common stock as one class, assuming that such shares of Series X Preferred Stock had been converted into shares of common stock immediately prior to the record date for such vote. The Series X Preferred Stock does not have any preferences in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, either voluntarily or involuntarily, a merger or consolidation of the Company wherein the Company is not the surviving entity, or a sale of all or substantially all of our assets (each, a “Liquidation Event”), but will participate with the common stock on any distributions made to the common stock in connection with any Liquidation Event on an as converted basis, assuming that such shares of Series X Preferred Stock had been converted into shares of common stock immediately prior to the payment of such dividend or distribution.

 

27
     

 

Shares of Series X Preferred Stock are not currently convertible into common stock, however each share of Series X Preferred Stock will automatically convert into shares of common stock upon the effectiveness of an amendment to our Articles of Incorporation following the date of the issuance of any shares of Series X Preferred Stock (the “Issuance Date”) which effects a reverse stock split of our common stock or increases the authorized shares of our common stock, or a combination thereof, by an amount sufficient to enable the conversion of all issued and outstanding shares of Series X Preferred Stock. Each whole share of Series X Preferred Stock then issued and outstanding shall, automatically and without any further action of any Series X Holder, convert into 450 shares of our common stock, with any fractional shares of Series X Stock being converted into a proportionate number of shares of our common stock, and with any fractional shares of common stock issuable as a result of such conversion being rounded up to the next nearest whole share of common stock. No Series X Holder will have any right to voluntarily effect conversions of the Series X Preferred Stock.

 

In the event of any forward or reverse split of the common stock following the Issuance Date, the conversion ratios as set forth above will be proportionately and equitably adjusted automatically. In the event that at any time or from time to time after the Issuance Date, the common stock issuable upon the conversion of the Series X Preferred Stock is changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of stock, then and in each such event each Series X Holder will have the right upon conversion to receive the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities, cash and property receivable upon such recapitalization, reclassification or other change, by holders of the number of shares of common stock which the Series X Holder would have received had it converted such shares immediately prior to such recapitalization, reclassification or other change, at the conversion ratio then in effect. If at any time or from time to time after the Issuance Date there is a capital reorganization of our common stock then, as a part of such reorganization, provisions shall be made so that the Series X Holders will be entitled to receive upon conversion of their shares of Series X Preferred Stock the number of shares of stock or other securities or property to which a holder of the number of shares of common stock deliverable upon conversion would have been entitled to receive had the Series X Holder converted such shares immediately prior to such capital reorganization, at the conversion ratio then in effect.

 

Shares of Series X Preferred Stock converted into common stock may not be reissued by the Company and no fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares of common stock will be issued upon the conversion of the Series X Preferred Stock. As to any fraction of a share of common stock as to which a Series X Holder would otherwise be entitled upon such conversion, we will round such fractional share of common stock up to the next whole share of common stock.

 

The issuance of shares on conversion of the Series X Preferred Stock shall be made without charge to any Series X Holder for any documentary stamp or similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of such Series X Conversion Shares, which shall be paid by us.

 

Closing Share Exchange Agreement

 

On August 8, 2018, the Company entered into the Closing Share Exchange Agreement and Joinder (the “Closing Agreement”) dated August 8, 2018 by and among the Company, EAI and the shareholders of EAI (the “EAI Shareholders”), which operated to amend the Exchange Agreement in certain respects and to provide for the closing of the transactions contemplated therein.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Closing Agreement, the Company agreed to acquire up to all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of EAI, representing 100% of EAI’s issued and outstanding shares of stock, from the EAI Shareholders in exchange for the issuance of one share of the Company’s Series X preferred stock (the “Series X Stock”) for each 31.645 shares of EAI common stock issued and outstanding, with any fractional shares of Series X Stock issuable therefore being rounded to the nearest whole shares of Series X Stock (the “Exchange”), such that an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of Series X Stock shall be issued for 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of stock of EAI, with each whole share of Series X Stock originally being convertible into 450 shares of the Company’s common stock, resulting in an aggregate of 450,000,000 shares of Company common stock issuable upon conversion of all of the Series X Stock (prior to any adjustments as set forth in the Closing Agreement). As a result of the Exchange, EAI became a majority owned subsidiary of the Company. As of the closing date, the Company owned approximately 99.7% of EAI’s outstanding shares. The parties intend that the Exchange will qualify as a reorganization under the provisions of Section 368(a)(1)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Exchange closed on August 8, 2018.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Closing Agreement, all but one of those EAI Shareholders that did not sign, and were not parties to, the Exchange Agreement became parties to the Closing Agreement upon execution of the Closing Agreement, as though original parties to the Exchange Agreement.

 

Following the closing of the Exchange, the Company intends to complete a reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock on such terms as determined by the Company’s board of directors, with any resulting fractional shares to be rounded up the nearest whole share of common stock, and with the authorized shares of Company common stock not being adjusted (the “Reverse Split”).

 

In the Closing Agreement, the parties acknowledge and agree that the Company did not have, as of the closing date of the Exchange, sufficient shares of Company common stock authorized to enable conversion of all of the shares of Series X Stock issued in the Exchange. Following the closing, in the event that following the Reverse Split, the Company still does not have sufficient shares of common stock authorized so as to enable the conversion of all of the shares of Series X Stock to be issued hereunder, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect an amendment of the Company’s articles of incorporation to increase the authorized shares of common stock. The conversion of the Series X Stock into common stock will occur automatically upon such an authorized share increase.

 

28
     

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Closing Agreement, in any vote of the Company’s shareholders required to effect the Reverse Split or an authorized share increase, the EAI Shareholders agreed to vote all shares of Company common stock and Series X Stock held by them “for” approval of the Reverse Split, the authorized share increase and any amendments of the Company’s articles as required in connection therewith.

 

The Company also agreed to use its commercially reasonable efforts to register shares of the Company’s common stock issued upon conversion of the Series X Stock upon completion of the authorized share increase in an amount not to exceed 30% of the total outstanding shares of stock, or such amount as the SEC requires in order to qualify as a re-sale registration, to be apportioned among the EAI Shareholders pro rata.

 

In the Closing Agreement, the parties agreed that immediately following the closing of the Exchange, Alexander Bafer, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, would resign as Chief Executive Officer and be appointed as the Company’s Executive Chairman of the Board. In addition, John Textor would be named as Chief Executive Officer and a member of the board of directors.

 

The Closing Agreement contains customary representations and warranties that the parties have made to each other.

 

Voting Agreement

Textor and Bafer agreed to vote all shares of the Company’s capital stock held by them (the “Textor and Bafer Shares”) as follows:

  3. Availability of Board Member; Expansion of Board. In the event that any person listed in #2 above is not available to serve as a director, Messrs.

In addition, if the board size is increased, it will be increased to a total of seven directors, of whom Mr. Textor will have the right, but not the obligation, to name, with the advice and consent of Mr. Bafer, and Messrs. Bafer and Textor agree to vote their Textor and Bafer Shares for such additional persons.
     
  4. Removal of Board Members. Messrs. Textor and Bafer agreed to vote their Textor and Bafer Shares to ensure that (a) no director elected pursuant to the terms of the Voting Agreement may be removed from office other than for cause unless such removal is director or approved by the agreement of Messrs. Textor and Bafer, and (b) any vacancies created by the resignation, removal of deal of any director elected pursuant to the terms of the Voting Agreement will be filled pursuant to the written agreement of Messrs.

  5. Increase Authorized Common Stock. Messrs.

Operating expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2018 totaled $5,491,996, compared to $226,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2017. The increase was primarily caused as a result of the Company’s acquisition of EAI in August, 2018.

Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 were $0 and $41,000, respectively. The decrease of $41,000 is directly related the commercialization and sale of an iOS app in the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

 

Cost of goods sold for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to the same period in 2017 decreased by $8,000. That was directly related the commercialization and sale of an iOS app in the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

 

Operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 totaled $7,371,996, compared to $755,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The increase was primarily caused as a result of the Company’s acquisition of EAI in August.

This gain is offset by a charge to financing costs of $2,532,830 as well as amortization of debt discount of $1,228,256 in the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

As of September 30, 2018, our total assets were $289,869,295 (as restated) and our current liabilities were $17,226,759 (as restated) and we had negative working capital as restated of $16,378,936. Our financial statements report net loss of $7,142,257 including non-cash gain of $3,887,541 for the change in fair value of derivative and warrant liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to net income of $10,847,000 including non-cash gain of $11,905,000 for the change in fair value of derivative liability for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

 

We have incurred recurring losses from operations. The continuation of our company is dependent upon our company attaining and maintaining profitable operations and raising additional capital as needed. In this regard, we have raised additional capital through equity offerings and loan transactions, and, in the short term, will seek to raise additional capital in such manners to fund our operations. We do not currently have any third-party financing available in the form of loans, advances, or commitments. Our officers and shareholders have not made any written or oral agreement to provide us additional financing. There can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to raise capital on terms and conditions that are deemed acceptable to us.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of September 30, 2018, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.

 

34
     

 

As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company had a stockholders’ accumulated deficit of $18,295,687 at September 30, 2018, incurred a net loss of $7,142,257 and used cash in operating activities of $2,461,968 for the period then ended. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date that the financial statements are issued.

 

The Company is attempting to produce sufficient revenue; however, the Company’s cash position may not be sufficient to support its daily operations. While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to produce sufficient revenue and in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that effect. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to further implement its business plan and generate sufficient revenues and in its ability to raise additional funds.

 

In addition, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, in its report on the Company’s December 31, 2017 consolidated financial statements, has raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

We have identified the following policies below as critical to our business and results of operations. Our reported results are impacted by the application of the following accounting policies, certain of which require management to make subjective or complex judgments. These judgments involve making estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may significantly impact quarterly or annual results of operations. For all of these policies, management cautions that future events rarely develop exactly as expected, and the best estimates routinely require adjustment. Specific risks associated with these critical accounting policies are described in the following paragraphs.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments. The Company evaluates its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses a probability weighted average Black-Scholes-Merton models, where the issuable number of shares being fixed, to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates through the September 30, 2018 reporting date. In the event that the issuable number of shares being variable over time, we use a Binomial Lattice Model, to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates through the September 30, 2018 reporting date. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

See Note 2 in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of recent accounting policies.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

Not required for smaller reporting companies.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, which are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and principal financial officer, an evaluation was performed on the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and principal financial officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q due to the Company’s limited resources and limited number of employees. To mitigate the current limited resources and limited employees, we rely heavily on direct management oversight of transactions, along with the use of legal and outsourced accounting professionals. As we grow, we expect to increase our number of employees, which, we believe, will enable us to implement adequate segregation of duties within the internal control framework.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 or 15d-15 of the Exchange Act that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
