NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2023

 

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS

 

Business description

 

The financial statements presented are those of Sentient Brands Holdings Inc. (the “Company”). The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of California on March 22, 2004, and until October 2016, the Company was in the business of media advertising and acquiring high-end computer and networking equipment from resellers and end-users and then reselling this equipment at discounted prices. The Company is currently in the business of product development and brand management with a focus on building innovative brands in the Luxury and Premium Market space. The Company has a Direct-to Consumer business model focusing on the integration of CBD, wellness and beauty for conscious consumers. The Company incorporates an omnichannel approach in its marketing strategies to ensure that its products are accessible across both digital and retail channels. The Company develops Lifestyle Brands with carefully thought-out ingredients, packaging, fragrance and design. The Company’s leadership team has extensive experience in building world-class brands such as Hugo Boss, Victoria’s Secret, Versace, and Bath & Body Works. The Company is focused on two key market segments targeting: wellness and responsible luxury, which the Company believes represent unique opportunities for its Oeuvre product line. The Company intends to leverage its in-house innovation capabilities to launch new products that “disrupt” adjacent product categories. The Company plans to grow by leveraging its deep connections within its existing network and attract consumers through increased brand awareness and investing in unique social media marketing. The Company’s goal is to create customer experiences that have sustainable resonance with consumers and consistently implement strategies that result in long-term profit growth. During the third quarter of 2022, the Company launched an M&A strategy to identify high-margin, revenue generating businesses within above-average growth potential industry sectors as potential acquisition targets.

 

On December 9, 2020, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment of Articles of Incorporation (the “Certificate”) with the State of California to (i) effect a forward stock split of its outstanding shares of common stock at a ratio of 7 for 1 (7:1) (the “Forward Stock Split”), (ii) increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 50,000,000 shares to 500,000,000 shares, and (iii) effectuate a name change (the “Name Change”). Fractional shares that resulted from the Forward Stock Split will be rounded up to the next highest number. As a result of the Name Change, the Company’s name changed from “Intelligent Buying, Inc.” to “Sentient Brands Holdings Inc.”. The Certificate was approved by the majority of the Company’s shareholders and by the Board of Directors of the Company. The effective date of the Forward Stock Split and the Name Change was March 2, 2021.

 

In connection with the above, the Company filed an Issuer Company-Related Action Notification Form with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. The Forward Stock Split and the Name Change was implemented by FINRA on March 2, 2021. Our symbol on OTC Markets was INTBD for 20 business days from March 2, 2021 (the “Notification Period”). Our new CUSIP number is 81728V 102. As a result of the name change, our symbol was changed to “SNBH” following the Notification Period. All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect this forward stock split.

 

In addition, on January 29, 2021, the Company, merged with and into its wholly owned subsidiary, Sentient Brands Holdings Inc., a Nevada corporation, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger between Sentient Brands Holdings Inc., a California corporation, and Sentient Brands Holdings Inc., a Nevada corporation. Sentient Brands Holdings Inc., a Nevada corporation, continued as the surviving entity of the migratory merger. Pursuant to the migratory merger, the Company changed its state of incorporation from California to Nevada and each share of its common stock converted into one share of common stock of the surviving entity in the migratory merger. No dissenters’ rights were exercised by any of the Company’s stockholders in connection with the migratory merger.

 

Following the consummation of the migratory merger, the articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Nevada corporation that was newly-created as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company became the articles of incorporation and bylaws for the surviving entity in the migratory merger.

Basis of Presentation

 

These interim consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. The results reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for any interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be reported for the entire year. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 17, 2023.

 

Going concern

 

The Company currently has limited operations. These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

 

As reflected in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $3,298,277 at September 30, 2023, and had a net loss of $242,631 (242,631) and net cash flow used in operating activities of $60,794 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. The Company has a limited operating history, and its continued growth is dependent upon the continuation of selling its products; hence generating revenues and obtaining additional financing to fund future obligations and pay liabilities arising from normal business operations. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to raise additional capital, implement its business plan, and generate significant revenues. There are no assurances that the Company will be successful in its efforts to generate significant revenues, maintain sufficient cash balance or report profitable operations or to continue as a going concern. The Company plans on raising capital through the sale of equity or debt instruments to implement its business plan. However, there is no assurance these plans will be realized and that any additional financings will be available to the Company on satisfactory terms and conditions, if any.

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability or classification of asset-carrying amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Uses of estimates in the preparation of financial statements

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of net revenue and expenses during each reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

6

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2022 presentation to make them consistent with 2023.

 

Cash

 

The Company considers all short-term highly liquid investments with an original maturity date of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, our revenue recognition policy was in accordance with ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, which requires the recognition of sales following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

 

Net loss per common share – basic and diluted

 

Authoritative guidance on Earnings per Share requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings or loss per share (“EPS”) for all entities with complex capital structures and requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS computation. Basic EPS excludes dilution; diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution 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 earnings of the entity.

 

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities and 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 earnings of the Company, unless the effect is to reduce a loss or increase earnings per share.

 

Stock-based compensation

 

In accordance with ASC No. 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), the Company measures the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, there were no stock based awards issued or outstanding.

 

Fair value of financial instruments

 

We value our financial assets and liabilities on a recurring basis using the fair value hierarchy established in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.

 

ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value, as follows:

 

Level 1 input, which include quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 inputs, which include observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

 

Level 3 inputs, which include unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the underlying asset or liability. Level 3 assets and liabilities include those whose fair value measurements are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar valuation techniques, as well as significant management judgment or estimation.

 

7

 

Income Taxes

 

Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. The U.S. federal income tax rate is 21%.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets to be held and used are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Determination of recoverability is based on an estimate of undiscounted future cash flows resulting from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. Measurement of an impairment loss for long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets that management expects to hold, and use is based on the fair value of the asset. Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

 

Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Standards

 

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other standard setting bodies that may have an impact on the Company’s accounting and reporting. The Company believes that such recently issued accounting pronouncements and other authoritative guidance for which the effective date is in the future either will not have an impact on its accounting or reporting or that such impact will not be material to its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows when implemented.

 

NOTE 3. INVENTORIES

 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined using the moving average method and net realizable value is the estimated selling price less costs of disposal in the ordinary course of business. The cost of inventories includes direct costs plus shipping and packaging materials.

 

As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, Company product inventories valued at approximately $213,477 and $238,016, respectively were primarily contained in our storage and fulfilment center located in Fairfield, NJ.

Overview

 

Sentient Brands is a next-level product development and brand management company with a focus on building innovative brands in the Luxury and Premium Market space. The Company has a Direct-to Consumer business model focusing on the integration of CBD, wellness and beauty for conscious consumers. The Company incorporates an omnichannel approach in its marketing strategies to ensure that its products are accessible across both digital and retail channels. The Company develops and nurtures Lifestyle Brands with carefully thought-out ingredients, packaging, fragrance and design. Sentient Brands’ leadership team has extensive experience in building world-class brands such as Hugo Boss, Victoria’s Secret, Versace, and Bath & Body Works. The Company is focused on two key market segments targeting: wellness and responsible luxury, which the Company believes represent unique opportunities for its Oeuvre product line. Sentient Brands intends to leverage its in-house innovation capabilities to launch new products that “disrupt” adjacent product categories. We plan to grow by leveraging our deep connections within our existing network and attract consumers through increased brand awareness and investing in unique social media marketing. The Company’s goal is to create customer experiences that have sustainable resonance with consumers and consistently implement strategies that result in long-term profit growth for our investors.

 

Principal Products and Services

 

All of our proprietary formulations contain clean, vegan, ethically and environmentally responsible ingredients. The Company currently has one main product line, and another in development. The Company’s current active product line is Oeuvre.

 

Oeuvre

 

Oeuvre - “A Body of Art” – is a next generation CBD luxury skin care line and lifestyle brand. The foundation of our system of products is our proprietary OE Complex: Botanicals + Gemstones + Full flower Hemp infused formulation. Each product in the Oeuvre Artistry Collection optimizes three functions: cellular energy, moisture balance, and nutrient utilization. Four products comprise the Oeuvre collection:

 

	●	Purifying Exfoliator
	●	Replenishing Facial Oil
	●	Ultra-Nourishing Face Cream
	●	Revitalizing Eye Cream

 

Drawing inspiration from petals, leaves, roots, minerals and gemstones, Oeuvre celebrates the artistry of well-being and beauty, inside and out. Oeuvre products are non-toxic, ungendered products made with zero GMO, retinyl palmitate, petroleum, mineral oil, parabens, sulfates, and synthetic colors.

  

 

Oeuvre Target Market

 

Oeuvre is our luxury segment product line. With Oeuvre, we are targeting a large and influential consumer class of individuals that are “HENRYs” – High-Earners-Not-Rich-Yet. They have discretionary income and are highly likely to be wealthy in the future. HENRYs earn between $100,000 and $250,000 annually. They are digitally fluent, love online shopping online, and are big discretionary spenders. Therefore, ouvreskincare.com offers inclusive, aspirational affordable luxury products positioned for them.

 

We believe the benefit of onboarding this demographic to Oeuvre are twofold: securing valuable present customers and building relationships and business with those most likely to be amongst the most affluent consumers in the future. By the year 2025, Millennials and Generation Z will represent more than 40% of the overall luxury goods market, according to a 2019 report published by Boston Consulting Group. We seek to target such group for the sale of our Oeuvre products.

 

On social media, we target the following audiences for our Oeuvre brand:

 

	●	Women aged 30+
	●	Luxury Skincare Enthusiasts
	●	CBD Enthusiasts
	●	Crystal Lovers
	●	Wellness Audience
	●	Makeup Artists
	●	Art
	●	Beauty
	●	Influencers
	●	Bloggers

 

Suppliers

 

The Company has several third-party suppliers and is not reliant on any particular supplier for its product offerings. Many of our products contain CBD derived from industrial hemp or cannabis which we obtain from third parties. Hemp cultivation can be impacted by weather patterns and other natural events, but we have not yet faced any supply issues to date with obtaining raw materials for our products.

 

Distribution

 

We have two primary methods through which we sell our products:

 

	1.	Direct to Consumer online e-commerce platform
	2.	Wholesale partners

 

Marketing Strategy

 

We support our brand launches through social media and marketing campaigns, including utilizing influencers. Marketing and public relations firms are engaged by the Company to spearhead its launch of Oeuvre, and will likely be engaged for our future planned brand launches as well.

 

Growth Strategies

 

To grow our company, Sentient Brands intends to:

 

	●	Create a leading consumer packaged goods company;
	●	Partner with established distributers and retailers;
	●	Focus on operational excellence and product quality; and
	●	Establish ongoing communication with the capital markets

 

 

Our mission is to create the next generation of CBD/THC consumer brands. The Company believes it has assembled a highly accomplished team of branding and marketing professionals who have a combined experience and track record of successfully launching and operating major brands in the consumer market space, which the Company believes will provide it with it a competitive edge in its industry.

 

M&A Strategy

 

During the third quarter of 2022, the Company launched an M&A strategy to identify high-margin, revenue generating businesses within above-average growth potential industry sectors as potential acquisition targets.

 

Customers

 

The Company launched its Oeuvre product line in the fourth quarter of 2021. The Company’s sales channels are direct to consumer and wholesale.

 

Intellectual Property

 

The Company’s Oeuvre brand is trademarked in the United States, with a European trademark application pending. The Company expects to rely on trade secrets and proprietary know-how protection for our confidential and proprietary information, however we have not yet taken security measures to protect this information.

 

Competition

 

We have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, intense competition from a number of companies.

 

The current market for hemp-derived CBD products is highly competitive, consisting of publicly-trade and privately-owned companies, many of which are more adequately capitalized than the Company. The Company’s current publicly listed competitors include Charlotte’s Web, CV Sciences, Elixinol, Abacus, and Green Growth Brands, and private companies such as BeBoe, St. Jane. Mary’s, Lord Jones, Bluebird Folium Biosciences, Global Cannabinoids, and Pure Kana. In addition, public and private U.S. and Canadian companies have entered the hemp-derived CBD consumer market or have announced plans to do so. This market is highly fragmented, and according to the Hemp Business Journal, the vast majority of industry participants generate less than $2 million in annual revenue. We see this an opportunity to create a foothold in the CBD consumer marketplace with the goal of building Sentient Brands as a major brand name in this space.

 

Industry Overview

 

The market for products based on extracts of hemp and cannabis, is expected to grow substantially over the coming years. Arcview Market Research and BDS Analytics are forecasting the combined market to reach nearly $45 billion within the U.S. in the year 2024. While much of this market is expected to be comprised of high potency THC-based products that will be sold in licensed dispensaries, certain research firms are still predicting the market to grow to $5.3 billion, $12.6 billion, and $2.2 billion by 2024 in the product areas of low THC cannabinoids, THC-free Cannabinoids and pharmaceutical cannabinoids, respectively.

 

On December 20, 2018, President Donald J. Trump signed into law the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018, otherwise known as the “Farm Bill.” Prior to its passage, hemp, a member of the cannabis family, and hemp-derived CBD were classified as a Schedule I controlled substances, and illegal under the Controlled Substances Act (“CSA”). Under Section 10113 of the Farm Bill, hemp cannot contain more than 0.3 percent THC. THC refers to the chemical compound found in cannabis that produces the psychoactive “high” associated with cannabis. Any cannabis plant that contains more than 0.3 percent THC would be considered non-hemp cannabis or marijuana under federal law and thus would face no legal protection under this new legislation and would be an illegal Schedule 1 drug under the CSA.

 

With the passage of the Farm Bill, hemp cultivation is broadly permitted. The Farm Bill explicitly allows the transfer of hemp-derived products across state lines for commercial or other purposes. It also puts no restrictions on the sale, transport, or possession of hemp-derived products, so long as those items are produced in a manner consistent with the law.

 

 

Recent Developments

 

Covid-19

 

A novel strain of coronavirus (“Covid-19”) emerged globally in December 2019 and was declared a pandemic. The extent to which Covid-19 will impact our customers, business, results and financial condition will depend on current and future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted at this time. While the Company’s day-to-day operations beginning March 2020 through the 2022 fiscal year were impacted, we suffered less immediate impact as most of our staff works remotely and continues to develop our product offerings.

 

Government Regulation

 

The United States Food & Drug Administration (“FDA”) is generally responsible for protecting the public health by ensuring the safety, efficacy, and security of (1) prescription and over the counter drugs; (2) biologics including vaccines, blood and blood products, and cellular and gene therapies; (3) foodstuffs including dietary supplements, bottled water, and baby formula; and (4) medical devices including heart pacemakers, surgical implants, prosthetics, and dental devices.

 

Regarding its regulation of drugs, the FDA process requires a review that begins with the filing of an investigational new drug (IND) application, with follow on clinical studies and clinical trials that the FDA uses to determine whether a drug is safe and effective, and therefore subject to approval for human use by the FDA.

 

Aside from the FDA’s mandate to regulate drugs, the FDA also regulates dietary supplement products and dietary ingredients under the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994. This law prohibits manufacturers and distributors of dietary supplements and dietary ingredients from marketing products that are adulterated or misbranded. This means that these firms are responsible for evaluating the safety and labeling of their products before marketing to ensure that they meet all the requirements of the law and FDA regulations, including, but not limited to the following labeling requirements: (1) identifying the supplement; (2) nutrition labeling; (3) ingredient labeling; (4) claims; and (5) daily use information.

 

The FDA has not approved cannabis, marijuana, hemp or derivatives as a safe and effective drug for any indication. As of the date of this filing, we have not, and do not intend to file an Investigational New Drug Application (IND) with the FDA, concerning any of our products that contain CBD derived from industrial hemp or cannabis. Further, our products containing CBD derived from industrial hemp are not marketed or sold using claims that their use is safe and effective treatment for any medical condition subject to the FDA’s jurisdiction.

 

Government Approvals

 

The Company does not currently require any government approvals for its operations or product offerings. In August 2019, the DEA affirmed that CBD preparations at or below the 0.3 percent delta-9 THC threshold, is not a controlled substance, and a DEA registration is not required. As a result of the 2018 Farm Bill, the FDA has been tasked with developing CBD regulations. The FDA has not yet published regulations.

 

Research and Development

 

We are continuously in the process of identifying and/or developing potential new products to offer to our customers. Our expenditures on research and development have historically been small and immaterial compared to our other business expenditures. We are currently developing new formulations for additional product lines.

 

 

Employees

 

We believe that our success depends upon our ability to attract, develop and retain key personnel. We currently employ two full-time employees. The Company otherwise currently relies on the services of independent contractors. None of our employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements, and management considers relations with our employees to be in good standing. Although we continually seek to add additional talent to our work force, management believes that it currently has sufficient human capital to operate its business successfully.

 

Our compensation programs are designed to align the compensation of our employees with our performance and to provide the proper incentives to attract, retain and motivate employees to achieve superior results. The structure of our compensation programs balances incentive earnings for both short-term and long-term performance.

 

The health and safety of our employees is our highest priority, and this is consistent with our operating philosophy. Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, employees, including our specialized technical staff, are working from home or in a virtual environment unless they have a requirement to be in the office for short-term tasks and projects.

 

The primary mailing address for the Company is 590 Madison Avenue, 21^st Floor, New York, New York 10022. The Company’s telephone number is (646) 202-2897. The Company’s website is www.sentientbrands.com.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We continually evaluate our estimates, including those related to bad debts, recovery of long-lived assets, income taxes and the valuation of equity transactions.

 

We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Any future changes to these estimates and assumptions could cause a material change to our reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements upon adoption. We do not discuss recent pronouncements that are not anticipated to have an impact on or are unrelated to our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.

 

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

Comparison of Results of Operations for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022

 

Revenue

 

During the three months ending September 30, 2023 and 2022, we generated minimal revenue due to the Company’s reorganization and focus on the development of our new product lines and related marketing preparations.

 

Expenses

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, expenses consisted of the following:

 

		2023				2022
Advertising and Marketing			69				4,462
General and Administrative			2,430				4,984
Legal and Professional			32,417				32,816
Management Fees			—				—
Interest Expense			42,158				43,066
TOTAL EXPENSES			77,074				85,328

 

	●	Our advertising and marketing costs mainly include consulting fees for branding, social media and creation of marketing materials for our brand. Advertising and marketing expenses were not significant for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 as the Company has cut its spending on advertising and marketing while it pursues its strategy of a merger. Total cost for advertising and marketing for the three months ended September 30, 2023 totaled $69 compared to $4,462 for the same period of 2022.   General and administrative fees totaled $2,430 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 representing a decrease of $2,554 compared to the total of $4,984 for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease is attributable to our reduced activities as we pursue our strategy of a merger.
	●	Legal and professional fees primarily consisted of accounting fees, legal service fees, consulting fees, investor relations and other fees incurred for service related to being a public company. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, professional fees totaled $32,417 which is a decrease of $399 compared to total expense of $32,816 for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease is attributed to our reduced activities as we pursue our strategy of a merger.
	●	Our management fees are comprised mainly of salaries paid to our management staff. During the second quarter of 2022, the management team agreed to waive all fees until the Company either merges with another company or develops a robust revenue stream. As such, no fees were recognized for the three months ended September 30, 2023 or 2022.   Interest expense is related to our convertible and other notes payable. During the three months ending September 30, 2023, interest expense decreased by approximately $900 compared to the same period in 2022. The decrease is due to the manner in which the accrual was calculated offset by the impact of increased borrowings.

 

Loss from Operations

 

The Company’s operating loss for the three-month period ended September 30, 2023, and 2022 was $34,916 and $42,262, respectively. The decreased in operating loss of $7,346 was primarily attributed to the Company’s austerity measures implemented during the second half of 2022.

 

 

Income Taxes

 

We did not have any income taxes expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

 

Net Loss

 

Our net loss for the three months period ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was $77,074 and $85,328, respectively.

 

Comparison of Results of Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022

 

Revenue

 

During the nine months ending September 30, 2023 and 2022, we generated minimal revenue due to the Company’s reorganization and focus on the development of our new product lines and related marketing preparations.

 

Expenses

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, expenses consisted of the following:

 

		2023				2022
Advertising and Marketing			1,056				43,075
General and Administrative			52,698				24,871
Legal and Professional			64,318				343,855
Management Fees			—				69,000
Interest Expense			124,659				113,098
TOTAL EXPENSES		$	242,731			$	593,899

  

	●	Our advertising and marketing costs mainly include consulting fees for branding, social media and creation of marketing materials for our brand. The decrease in costs of $42,019, during the nine months period ending September 30, 2023 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was attributable to the austerity measures implemented by the Company during the second half of 2022 as the Company focused its attention toward an M&A strategy. For the first nine months of 2022, the expenses related to consulting fees for branding and marketing materials of $10,500, product samples for promotions of $14,205, Social Media advertisement of $9,370 and trade show cost of $9,000.   General and administrative fees totaled $52,698 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 representing an increase of $27,827 compared to the total of $24,871 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase during the nine months period ending September 30, 2023 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was attributable to warehousing costs for our inventory offset by the austerity measures implemented by the Company during the second half of 2022 as the Company focused its attention toward an M&A strategy.
	●	Legal and professional fees primarily consisted of accounting fees, legal service fees, consulting fees, investor relations and other fees incurred for service related to being a public company. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, professional fees totaled $64,318 which is a decrease of $279,537 compared to total expense of $343,855 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease is attributed to the Company’s austerity measures implemented during the second half of 2022. Professional fees for 2023 are mainly for legal, accounting and audit fees.
	●	Our management fees are comprised mainly of salaries paid to our management staff. No fees were recognized for the first nine months of 2023 as the management team waived any fees until the Company either merges with another company or develops a robust revenue stream. During the nine months period ending September 30, 2022, management fees totaled $69,000.   Interest expense is related to our convertible and other notes payable. During the nine months ending September 30, 2023, interest expense increased by $11,561 compared to the same period in 2022 due to increased borrowings to fund the operation.

 

 

Loss from Operations

 

The Company’s operating loss for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, and 2022 was $117,972 and $484,571, respectively. The decreased in operating loss of $366,599 was primarily attributed to the Company’s austerity measures implemented during the second half of 2022.

 

Income Taxes

 

We did not have any income taxes expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

 

Net Loss

 

Our net loss for the nine months period ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was $242,631 and $597,669, respectively.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) applicable for a going concern, which assumes that the Company will realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the ordinary course of business.

 

To the extent we are successful in growing our business both organically and through acquisition, we continue to plan our working capital and the proceeds of any financing to finance such acquisition costs.

 

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. At September 30, 2023, we had a cash balance of $1,049. These funds are kept in financial institutions located in United States.

 

As of September 30, 2023, we had total current assets of $214,526, consisting of $1,049 in cash and $213,477 in inventory. Our total current liabilities as of September 30, 2023 were $1,945,944. We had a working capital deficit of $1,731,418 as of September 30, 2023.

 

Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to carry out our business plan, achieve profitable operations, obtain additional working capital funds from our significant shareholders, and or through debt and equity financings. However, there can be no assurance that any additional financings will be available to us on satisfactory terms and conditions, if any.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability or classification of asset-carrying amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

 

Operating activities used $60,794 in cash for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared with cash used of $287,814 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Our negative operating cash flow for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, was largely the result of our net loss of $242,631 offset by non cash depreciation of $2,909 and other noncash activity totaling $140,900. Inventory decreased by $24,539. Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased by $13,489. Our negative operating cash flow of $287,814 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, was largely the result of the result our net loss of $597,670 offset by non cash depreciation and amortization expense of $3,193, a decrease in inventory of $20,765 and increase in accrued expenses and payables $259,716.

 

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

 

There were no cash flow from investment activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.

 

 

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

 

Net cash flows provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, amounted to $60,795 compared with cash flows provided by financing activities of $192,924 for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Our positive cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, consisted of net proceeds from promissory notes.

 

Going Concern

 

As of September 30, 2023, we have an accumulated deficit of $3,298,277. Our ability to continue as a going concern is contingent upon the successful completion of additional financing arrangements and our ability to achieve and maintain profitable operations. While we are expanding our best efforts to achieve the above plans, there is no assurance that any such activity will generate funds that will be available for operations. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might arise from this uncertainty.

 

Contractual Obligations and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

Contractual Obligations

 

We presently do not have any contractual obligations.

 

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We presently do not have off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

Inflation

 

The effect of inflation on our revenue and operating results was not significant.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

 

As a smaller reporting company, as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

We conducted an evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, as of September 30, 2023, to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, including to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of September 30, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the material weaknesses identified and described below.

 

Our principal executive officers do not expect that our disclosure controls or internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. Although our disclosure controls and procedures were designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and our principal executive officers have determined that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at doing so, a control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute assurance that the objectives of the system are met. Further,

 

 

the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented if there exists in an individual a desire to do so. There can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

 

Remediation Plan to Address the Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management identified the following three material weaknesses that have caused management to conclude that, as of September 30, 2023, our disclosure controls and procedures, and our internal control over financial reporting, were not effective at the reasonable assurance level:

 

1.	We do not have written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures. Written documentation of key internal controls over financial reporting is a requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act as of the period ending September 30, 2023. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have written documentation of our internal controls and procedures on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.
2.	We do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control. Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible. However, to the extent possible, the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate individuals. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have segregation of duties on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.
3.	Effective controls over the control environment were not maintained. Specifically, a formally adopted written code of business conduct and ethics that governs our employees, officers, and directors was not in place. Additionally, management has not developed and effectively communicated to employees its accounting policies and procedures. This has resulted in inconsistent practices. Further, our Board of Directors does not currently have any independent members and no director qualifies as an audit committee financial expert as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K. Since these entity level programs have a pervasive effect across the organization, management has determined that these circumstances constitute a material weakness.

 

To address these material weaknesses, management performed additional analyses and other procedures to ensure that the financial statements included herein fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Accordingly, we believe that the financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

 

To remediate the material weakness in our documentation, evaluation and testing of internal controls we plan to engage a third-party firm to assist us in remedying this material weakness once resources become available.

 

We intend to remedy our material weakness with regard to insufficient segregation of duties by hiring additional employees in order to segregate duties in a manner that establishes effective internal controls once resources become available.

 

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes (including corrective actions with regard to material weakness) in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

 

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

From time to time, we are subject to ordinary routine litigation incidental to our normal business operations. We are not currently a party to any litigation the outcome of which, if determined adversely to us, would individually or in the aggregate be reasonably expected to have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results, cash flows or financial condition.

 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

 

Risk factors describing the major risks to our business can be found under Item 1A, “Risk Factors”, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. There has been no material change in our risk factors from those previously discussed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

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

 

On August 9, 2023, the Company agreed to issue 160,000 restricted shares of its common stock to a qualified investor for proceeds of $8,000. The underlying shares were not issued prior to the end of the quarter but are listed as outstanding by the Company as of September 30, 2023.

 

On September 28, 2023, the Company agreed to issue 600,000 restricted shares of its common stock to a qualified investor for proceeds of $30,000. The underlying shares were not issued prior to the end of the quarter but are listed as outstanding by the Company as of September 30, 2023.

 

The offers, sales, and issuances of the securities described above were deemed to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and/or Rule 506 as promulgated under Regulation D as transactions by an issuer not involving a public offering. The recipients of securities in each of these transactions acquired the securities for investment only and not with a view to or for sale in connection with any distribution thereof and appropriate legends were affixed to the securities issued in these transactions. Each of the recipients of securities in these transactions was an accredited or sophisticated person and had adequate access, through employment, business or other relationships, to information about us.

ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS	9 Months Ended

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS	NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS   Business description   The financial statements presented are those of Sentient Brands Holdings Inc. (the “Company”). The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of California on March 22, 2004, and until October 2016, the Company was in the business of media advertising and acquiring high-end computer and networking equipment from resellers and end-users and then reselling this equipment at discounted prices. The Company is currently in the business of product development and brand management with a focus on building innovative brands in the Luxury and Premium Market space. The Company has a Direct-to Consumer business model focusing on the integration of CBD, wellness and beauty for conscious consumers. The Company incorporates an omnichannel approach in its marketing strategies to ensure that its products are accessible across both digital and retail channels. The Company develops Lifestyle Brands with carefully thought-out ingredients, packaging, fragrance and design. The Company’s leadership team has extensive experience in building world-class brands such as Hugo Boss, Victoria’s Secret, Versace, and Bath & Body Works. The Company is focused on two key market segments targeting: wellness and responsible luxury, which the Company believes represent unique opportunities for its Oeuvre product line. The Company intends to leverage its in-house innovation capabilities to launch new products that “disrupt” adjacent product categories. The Company plans to grow by leveraging its deep connections within its existing network and attract consumers through increased brand awareness and investing in unique social media marketing. The Company’s goal is to create customer experiences that have sustainable resonance with consumers and consistently implement strategies that result in long-term profit growth. During the third quarter of 2022, the Company launched an M&A strategy to identify high-margin, revenue generating businesses within above-average growth potential industry sectors as potential acquisition targets.   On December 9, 2020, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment of Articles of Incorporation (the “Certificate”) with the State of California to (i) effect a forward stock split of its outstanding shares of common stock at a ratio of 7 for 1 (7:1) (the “Forward Stock Split”), (ii) increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 50,000,000 shares to 500,000,000 shares, and (iii) effectuate a name change (the “Name Change”). Fractional shares that resulted from the Forward Stock Split will be rounded up to the next highest number. As a result of the Name Change, the Company’s name changed from “Intelligent Buying, Inc.” to “Sentient Brands Holdings Inc.”. The Certificate was approved by the majority of the Company’s shareholders and by the Board of Directors of the Company. The effective date of the Forward Stock Split and the Name Change was March 2, 2021.   In connection with the above, the Company filed an Issuer Company-Related Action Notification Form with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. The Forward Stock Split and the Name Change was implemented by FINRA on March 2, 2021. Our symbol on OTC Markets was INTBD for 20 business days from March 2, 2021 (the “Notification Period”). Our new CUSIP number is 81728V 102. As a result of the name change, our symbol was changed to “SNBH” following the Notification Period. All share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted to reflect this forward stock split.   In addition, on January 29, 2021, the Company, merged with and into its wholly owned subsidiary, Sentient Brands Holdings Inc., a Nevada corporation, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger between Sentient Brands Holdings Inc., a California corporation, and Sentient Brands Holdings Inc., a Nevada corporation. Sentient Brands Holdings Inc., a Nevada corporation, continued as the surviving entity of the migratory merger. Pursuant to the migratory merger, the Company changed its state of incorporation from California to Nevada and each share of its common stock converted into one share of common stock of the surviving entity in the migratory merger. No dissenters’ rights were exercised by any of the Company’s stockholders in connection with the migratory merger.   Following the consummation of the migratory merger, the articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Nevada corporation that was newly-created as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company became the articles of incorporation and bylaws for the surviving entity in the migratory merger.   Basis of Presentation   These interim consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been included. The results reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for any interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be reported for the entire year. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.   Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 17, 2023.   Going concern   The Company currently has limited operations. These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.   As reflected in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $3,298,277 at September 30, 2023, and had a net loss of $242,631 (242,631) and net cash flow used in operating activities of $60,794 for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. The Company has a limited operating history, and its continued growth is dependent upon the continuation of selling its products; hence generating revenues and obtaining additional financing to fund future obligations and pay liabilities arising from normal business operations. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to raise additional capital, implement its business plan, and generate significant revenues. There are no assurances that the Company will be successful in its efforts to generate significant revenues, maintain sufficient cash balance or report profitable operations or to continue as a going concern. The Company plans on raising capital through the sale of equity or debt instruments to implement its business plan. However, there is no assurance these plans will be realized and that any additional financings will be available to the Company on satisfactory terms and conditions, if any.   The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability or classification of asset-carrying amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	9 Months Ended

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES   Uses of estimates in the preparation of financial statements   The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of net revenue and expenses during each reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.   Reclassifications   Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2022 presentation to make them consistent with 2023.   Cash   The Company considers all short-term highly liquid investments with an original maturity date of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents.   Revenue Recognition   During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, our revenue recognition policy was in accordance with ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, which requires the recognition of sales following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.   Net loss per common share – basic and diluted   Authoritative guidance on Earnings per Share requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings or loss per share (“EPS”) for all entities with complex capital structures and requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS computation. Basic EPS excludes dilution; diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution 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 earnings of the entity.   Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities and 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 earnings of the Company, unless the effect is to reduce a loss or increase earnings per share.   Stock-based compensation   In accordance with ASC No. 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), the Company measures the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services.   During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, there were no stock based awards issued or outstanding.   Fair value of financial instruments   We value our financial assets and liabilities on a recurring basis using the fair value hierarchy established in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.   ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value, as follows:   Level 1 input, which include quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.   Level 2 inputs, which include observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and   Level 3 inputs, which include unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the underlying asset or liability. Level 3 assets and liabilities include those whose fair value measurements are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar valuation techniques, as well as significant management judgment or estimation.   Income Taxes   Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. The U.S. federal income tax rate is 21%.   Impairment of Long-Lived Assets   Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets to be held and used are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Determination of recoverability is based on an estimate of undiscounted future cash flows resulting from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. Measurement of an impairment loss for long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets that management expects to hold, and use is based on the fair value of the asset. Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.   Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Standards   From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other standard setting bodies that may have an impact on the Company’s accounting and reporting. The Company believes that such recently issued accounting pronouncements and other authoritative guidance for which the effective date is in the future either will not have an impact on its accounting or reporting or that such impact will not be material to its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows when implemented.

Accrued interest for this note as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were $14,167 and $10,417 respectively.   On April 27, 2021 (the “Issuance Date”), the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with an accredited investor (the “April 2021 Investor”) providing for the sale by the Company to the April 2021 Investor of a 10% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $315,789 (the “April 2021 Note”, and the “Financing”). The principal amount of the April 2021 Note includes an Original Issue Discount of $15,789, resulting in $300,000 in total proceeds received by the Company in the Financing. The April 2021 Note is convertible at the option of the April 2021 Investor into shares of common stock of the Company at $0.40 per share. In addition to the April 2021 Note, the April 2021 Investor also received 250,000 shares of common stock of the Company (the “Commitment Shares”), and a common share purchase warrant (the “April 2021 Warrant”, and together with the April 2021 Note and the Commitment Shares, the “Securities”) to acquire 500,000 shares of common stock of the Company. The April 2021 Warrant is exercisable for five years at an exercise price of $0.60. During the year ended December 31, 2022 the company paid monthly interest totaling $21,052.

On March 23, 2023, the Company and the April 2021 Investor entered into an extension agreement pursuant to which the parties agreed to extend the maturity date of the August 21, 2023. Accrued interest for this note as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were $68,420 and $44,736 respectively.   On November 18, 2021 (the “Issuance Date”), the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with an accredited investor (the “November 2021 Investor”) providing for the sale by the Company to the November 2021 Investor of a 10% Senior Secured Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $400,000 (the “November 2021 Note”, and, the “Financing”), to be paid by the November 2021 Investor to the Company in two tranches (each, a “Tranche”). The first Tranche consists of a payment by the November 2021 Investor to the Company on the Issue Date of $200,000, from which the November 2021 Investor retained $5,000 to cover its legal fees. A second Tranche consisting of $200,000 was paid in December 2021, resulting in $395,000 in total proceeds to be received by the Company in the Financing.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES   On December 26, 2019, the Company entered into an Employment Agreement (the “Furlan Agreement”) with George Furlan pursuant to which Mr. Furlan was appointed as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The Furlan Agreement provided for a base salary of $60,000 per year. The Furlan Agreement also contained an annual bonus based on the amount of revenue generated by the Company from the sale of certain products. The Furlan Agreement had a term of three years from the effective date. Pursuant to the Furlan Agreement, the Company and Mr. Furlan also entered into a Restricted Stock Agreement to purchase 718,403 shares of the Company’s Common Stock. The Furlan Agreement expired in December 2022 and was not renewed. On January 5, 2023, the Company issued to Mr. Furlan 771,242 restricted shares of its common stock in full and final settlement of the remaining amount due under the Furlan Agreement of $59,000. Mr. Furlan has not entered into a new employment agreement with the Company since the expiration of the Furlan Agreement.

The Mansour Agreement had a term of three years from the effective date. Pursuant to the Mansour Agreement, the Company and Mr. Mansour also entered into a Restricted Stock Agreement (the “RSPA”) to purchase 718,403 shares of the Company’s Common Stock. The Mansour Agreement expired in January 2023 and was not renewed. On June 3, 2022, Mr. Mansour and the Company mutually terminated the Mansour Agreement (the “Mansour Agreement Termination”).

Accordingly, any vesting of shares of common stock pursuant to the RSPA ceased as of the date of the Mansour Agreement Termination, resulting in the total number of shares of common stock vested to Mr. Mansour of 628,598 as of the date of the Mansour Agreement Termination.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)	9 Months Ended
	Sep. 30, 2023
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Uses of estimates in the preparation of financial statements	Uses of estimates in the preparation of financial statements   The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of net revenue and expenses during each reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications	Reclassifications   Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2022 presentation to make them consistent with 2023.
Cash	Cash   The Company considers all short-term highly liquid investments with an original maturity date of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition   During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, our revenue recognition policy was in accordance with ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, which requires the recognition of sales following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.
Net loss per common share – basic and diluted	Net loss per common share – basic and diluted   Authoritative guidance on Earnings per Share requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings or loss per share (“EPS”) for all entities with complex capital structures and requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS computation. Basic EPS excludes dilution; diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution 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 earnings of the entity.   Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities and 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 earnings of the Company, unless the effect is to reduce a loss or increase earnings per share.
Stock-based compensation	Stock-based compensation   In accordance with ASC No. 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), the Company measures the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services.   During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and 2022, there were no stock based awards issued or outstanding.
Fair value of financial instruments	Fair value of financial instruments   We value our financial assets and liabilities on a recurring basis using the fair value hierarchy established in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.   ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value, as follows:   Level 1 input, which include quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.   Level 2 inputs, which include observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and   Level 3 inputs, which include unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the underlying asset or liability. Level 3 assets and liabilities include those whose fair value measurements are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar valuation techniques, as well as significant management judgment or estimation.
Income Taxes	Income Taxes   Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. The U.S. federal income tax rate is 21%.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets	Impairment of Long-Lived Assets   Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets to be held and used are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Determination of recoverability is based on an estimate of undiscounted future cash flows resulting from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. Measurement of an impairment loss for long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets that management expects to hold, and use is based on the fair value of the asset. Long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangible assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.
Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Standards	Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Standards   From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or other standard setting bodies that may have an impact on the Company’s accounting and reporting. The Company believes that such recently issued accounting pronouncements and other authoritative guidance for which the effective date is in the future either will not have an impact on its accounting or reporting or that such impact will not be material to its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows when implemented.
