Note 1 – Nature of Business and Significant Accounting Policies

 

Nature of Business

 

One World Pharma, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “our” or “us”) was incorporated in Nevada on September 2, 2014. On February 21, 2019, One World Pharma, Inc. (“One World Pharma”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with OWP Merger Subsidiary, Inc., our wholly-owned subsidiary, and OWP Ventures, Inc. (“OWP Ventures”), which is the parent company of One World Pharma SAS, a Colombian company (“OWP Colombia”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, we acquired OWP Ventures (and indirectly, OWP Colombia) by the merger of OWP Merger Subsidiary with and into OWP Ventures, with OWP Ventures being the surviving entity as our wholly-owned subsidiary (the “Merger”). As a result of the Merger (a) holders of the outstanding capital stock of OWP Ventures received an aggregate of 39,475,398 shares of our common stock; (b) options to purchase 825,000 shares of common stock of OWP Ventures at an exercise price of $0.50 automatically converted into options to purchase 825,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.50; (c) the outstanding principal and interest under a $300,000 convertible note issued by OWP Ventures became convertible, at the option of the holder, into shares of our common stock at a conversion price equal to the lesser of $0.424 per share or 80% of the price we sell our common stock in a future “Qualified Offering”; (d) 875,000 shares of our common stock owned by OWP Ventures prior to the Merger were cancelled; and (e) OWP Ventures’ chief operating officer became our chief operating officer and two of OWP Ventures’ directors became members of our board of directors. The Company’s headquarters are located in Las Vegas, Nevada, and all of its customers are expected to be outside of the United States. On January 10, 2019, the Company changed its name from Punto Group, Corp. to One World Pharma, Inc.

 

OWP Ventures is a holding company formed in Delaware on March 27, 2018 to enter and support the cannabis industry, and on May 30, 2018, it acquired OWP Colombia. OWP Colombia is a licensed cannabis cultivation, production and distribution (export) company located in Popayán, Colombia (nearest major city is Cali). We plan to be a producer of raw cannabis and hemp plant ingredients for both medical and industrial uses across the globe. We have received licenses to cultivate, produce and distribute the raw ingredients of the cannabis and hemp plant for medicinal, scientific and industrial purposes. Specifically, we are one of the only companies in Colombia to receive seed, cultivation, extraction and export licenses from the Colombian government. Currently, we own approximately 30 acres and have a covered greenhouse built specifically to cultivate high-grade cannabis and hemp. In addition, we have entered into agreements with local farming co-operatives that include small farmers and indigenous tribe members, under which they will cultivate cannabis on up to approximately 140 acres of land using our seeds and propagation techniques, and sell their harvested products to us on an exclusive basis. We planted our first crop of cannabis in 2018, which we began harvesting in the first quarter of 2019 for the purpose of further research and development activities and quality control testing of the cannabis we have produced. To date, we have not yet generated any revenues from our activities.

 

The Merger was accounted for as a reverse merger (recapitalization) with OWP Ventures deemed to be the accounting acquirer. Accordingly, the financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q reflect the historical operations of OWP Ventures and its wholly-owned subsidiary OWP SAS prior to the Merger, and that of the combined company following the Merger. The historical financial information for One World Pharma, Inc. (formerly Punto Group Corp.) prior to the Merger has been omitted.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and the accompanying notes included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been included. Such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, and the accompanying notes, are prepared in accordance with GAAP and do not contain certain information included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019. The interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with that Annual Report on Form 10-K. Results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that might be expected for the entire fiscal year.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the following entities, all of which were under common control and ownership at March 31, 2020:

 

    State of      
Name of Entity   Incorporation    Relationship 
One World Pharma, Inc.(1)   Nevada    Parent 
OWP Ventures, Inc.(2)   Delaware    Subsidiary 
One World Pharma S.A.S.(3)   Colombia    Subsidiary 
Colombian Hope, S.A.S.(4)   Colombia    Subsidiary 

 

(1)Holding company in the form of a corporation.

(2)Holding company in the form of a corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of One World Pharma, Inc.

(3)Wholly-owned subsidiary of OWP Ventures, Inc. since May 30, 2018, located in Colombia and legally constituted as a simplified stock company registered in the Chamber of Commerce of Bogotá on July 18, 2017. Its headquarters are located in Bogotá.

(4)Wholly-owned subsidiary of OWP Ventures, Inc., acquired on November 19, 2019, located in Colombia and legally constituted as a simplified stock company. This company has yet to incur any income or expenses.

 

The consolidated financial statements herein contain the operations of the wholly-owned subsidiaries listed above. The Company’s headquarters are located in Las Vegas, Nevada and substantially all of its production efforts are within Popayán, Colombia.

 

Foreign Currency Translation

 

The functional currency of the Company is Columbian Peso (COP). The Company has maintained its financial statements using the functional currency, and translated those financial statements to the US Dollar (USD) throughout this report. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at rates of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet dates. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Exchange gains or losses arising from foreign currency transactions are included in the determination of net income (loss) for the respective periods.

 

Comprehensive Income

 

The Company has adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Boards (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 220, Reporting Comprehensive Income, which establishes standards for reporting and displaying comprehensive income, its components, and accumulated balances in a full-set of general-purpose financial statements. Accumulated other comprehensive income represents the accumulated balance of foreign currency translation adjustments.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Segment Reporting

 

ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” requires use of the “management approach” model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a company’s management organizes segments within the company for making operating decisions and assessing performance. The Company operates as a single segment and will evaluate additional segment disclosure requirements as it expands its operations.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Under ASC 820-10-05, the FASB establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement reaffirms that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements as reflected herein. The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses reported on the balance sheets are estimated by management to approximate fair value primarily due to the short term nature of the instruments.

Cash in Excess of FDIC Insured Limits

 

The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. Accounts are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $250,000, under current regulations. The Company did not have cash in excess of FDIC insured limits at March 31, 2020.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company has not yet recognized revenue. The Company will recognize revenue in accordance with ASC 606 — Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Under ASC 606, the Company will recognize 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.

 

There was no impact on the Company’s financial statements from ASC 606 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, or the year ended December 31, 2019. Inventory consisted of $118,899 of raw materials at March 31, 2020.

 

Inventory

 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on a standard cost basis that approximates the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Market is determined based on net realizable value. Appropriate consideration is given to obsolescence, excessive levels, deterioration, and other factors in evaluating net realizable value. Our cannabis products consist of cannabis flower grown in-house, along with produced extracts.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to employees in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718 Stock Compensation (ASC 718) and Equity-Based Payments to Non-employees pursuant to ASC 505-50 (ASC 505-50). All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date of the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the counterparty’s performance is complete or the date at which a commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached because of sufficiently large disincentives for nonperformance.

 

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share

 

The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss adjusted on an “as if converted” basis, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potential dilutive securities. For the periods presented, potential dilutive securities had an anti-dilutive effect and were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per common share.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. If not discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.

 

In August 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) (“ASU 2018-13”). The new guidance removes, modifies and adds to certain disclosure requirements on fair value measurements in Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement. The update is effective for annual reporting periods, including interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2019. The adoption of the new standard did not have an effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) - Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment (“ASU 2017-04”). The update simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. An entity should perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, and recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, if applicable. The loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. The same impairment test also applies to any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. The update is effective for annual reporting periods, including interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2019, on a prospective basis. The adoption of the new standard did not have an effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

There are no other recently issued accounting pronouncements that the Company has yet to adopt that are expected to have a material effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Note 2 –Going Concern

 

As shown in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2020, the Company had cash on hand of $20,782, negative working capital of $1,195,838 and an accumulated deficit of $9,355,082, and the Company’s cash on hand may not be sufficient to sustain operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management is actively pursuing new customers to generate revenues. In addition, the Company is currently seeking additional sources of capital to fund short term operations. Management believes these factors will contribute toward achieving profitability. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in achieving these objectives, becoming profitable or continuing our business without either a temporary interruption or a permanent cessation. Additional financing may result in substantial dilution to existing stockholders

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of any uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements also do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Note 3 –Mergers and Acquisitions

 

Acquisition

 

On December 6, 2019, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary OWP Ventures, Inc., acquired 51% of the outstanding shares of capital stock (the “Shares”) of Colombian Hope, S.A.S., then known as Colcannapy S.A.S., a Colombian company (“Colombian Hope”), for a purchase price of US$102,000, pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) among OWP Ventures, Inc. and Colombian Hope’s shareholders. Colombian Hope is the holder of a Colombian seed license and 23 registered Colombian cultivars.

 

Concurrently, with the Company’s acquisition of the Shares, Federación Colombiana de Consejos Regionales (“Fedecoré”) was supposed to have purchased the remaining 49% of Colombian Hope’s outstanding shares of capital stock from Colombian Hope’s shareholders, so that the Company and Fedecoré would be the only shareholders of Colombian Hope. However, Fedecoré, a non-profit Colombian entity, was unable to acquire such shares, which were then acquired by OWP Ventures, Inc., resulting in 100% ownership. No assets or liabilities were acquired pursuant to the acquisition, resulting in $102,000 of goodwill that was impaired and expensed on December 31, 2019 due to the lack of current operations. To date, Colombian Hope has not incurred any income or expenses.

 

Note 4 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Under FASB ASC 820-10-5, fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). The standard outlines a valuation framework and creates a fair value hierarchy in order to increase the consistency and comparability of fair value measurements and the related disclosures. Under GAAP, certain assets and liabilities must be measured at fair value, and FASB ASC 820-10-50 details the disclosures that are required for items measured at fair value.

 

The Company has certain financial instruments that must be measured under the new fair value standard. The Company’s financial assets and liabilities are measured using inputs from the three levels of the fair value hierarchy. The three levels are as follows:

 

Level 1 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

 

Level 2 - Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).

 

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that reflect our assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Note 10 – Leases

 

The Company’s corporate offices and operational facility in Colombia under non-cancelable real property lease agreements that expire on October 31, 2021 and September 30, 2029, respectively. The Company doesn’t have any other office or equipment leases subject to the recently adopted ASU 2016-02. In the locations in which it is economically feasible to continue to operate, management expects that lease options will be exercised. The Company’s corporate office is under a real property lease that contains a one-time renewal option for an additional 36 months that we determined would be reasonably certain to be extended, while the Company’s operational facility in Colombia contains a 60 month extension option that we did not determine to be reasonably certain to be extended. The office lease contains provisions requiring payment of property taxes, utilities, insurance, maintenance and other occupancy costs applicable to the leased premise. As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit discount rate, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments.

 

The components of lease expense were as follows:

 

   For the Three 
   Months Ended 
   March 31, 2020 
Operating lease cost:     
Amortization of assets  $58,891

Note 11 – Convertible Note Payable

 

Convertible note payable consists of the following at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively:

 

   March 31,
2020
   December 31,
2019
 
         
On November 30, 2018, the Company received proceeds of $300,000 on a secured convertible note that carries a 6% interest rate from CSW Ventures, LP (“CSW”). The proceeds were used to fund the Company’s purchase of 875,000 shares of common stock, on a 1:4 split adjusted basis, of One World Pharma, Inc. The Note is due on demand. In the event that the Company consummated the closing of a public or private offering of its equity securities, resulting in gross proceeds of at least $500,000 (“Qualified Financing”) at any time prior to the repayment of this note, then the outstanding principal and unpaid interest may, at the option of the holder, be converted into such equity securities at a conversion price equal to eighty percent (80%) of the purchase price paid by the investors purchasing the equity securities in the Qualified Financing. A Qualified Financing subsequently occurred on February 4, 2019, at which time the convertible note became convertible at a fixed conversion price of $0.40 per share. The Company’s obligations under this Note are secured by a lien on the assets of the Company.  $300,000   $300,000 
           
On July 22, 2019, a total of $207,332, consisting of $200,000 of principal and $7,332 of unpaid interest, on two outstanding demand notes owed to CSW that originated on November 26, 2018 and December 26, 2018, were exchanged for a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $207,332, due on demand (the “Second Convertible CSW Note”). The Second Convertible CSW Note bears interest at 6% per annum and is convertible at the option of the holder into shares of common stock at a price of $0.50 per share.   207,332    207,332 
Less: unamortized debt discounts   -    - 
Convertible note payable  $507,332   $507,332 

 

In addition, the Company recognized and measured the embedded beneficial conversion feature present in the convertible notes by allocating a portion of the proceeds equal to the intrinsic value of the feature to additional paid-in-capital. The intrinsic value of the feature was calculated on the commitment date using the effective conversion price of the convertible notes. This intrinsic value is limited to the portion of the proceeds allocated to the convertible debt.

 

The aforementioned accounting treatment resulted in a total debt discounts equal to $332,332 for the year ended December 31, 2019. The Company recorded finance expense in the amount of $125,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

 

The convertible note limits the maximum number of shares that can be owned by the note holder as a result of the conversions to common stock to 4.99% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares.

Note 13 – Changes in Stockholders’ Equity

 

Preferred Stock

 

The Company has 10,000,000 authorized shares of $0.001 par value preferred stock. No shares had been issued as of March 31, 2020.

 

Common Stock

 

The Company is authorized to issue an aggregate of 300,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001. As of March 31, 2020, there were 45,710,305 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.

 

Common Stock Issued on Subscriptions Payable

 

On January 6, 2020, the Company issued 500,000 shares of common stock on a Subscriptions Payable for the December 31, 2019 sale of common stock at $0.50 per share for proceeds of $25,000.

 

Common Stock Issued for Services

 

On various dates between January 4, 2020 and February 4, 2020, the Company awarded an aggregate of 406,000 shares of common stock to four consultants for services provided. The aggregate fair value of the common stock was $422,000 based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.

 

Amortization of Stock-Based Compensation

 

A total of $141,278 of stock-based compensation expense was recognized from the amortization of options to purchase common stock over their vesting period during the three months ended March 31, 2020.

 

Note 14 – Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB ASC 740-10, which requires use of the liability method. FASB ASC 740-10-25 provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts for financial reporting purposes, referred to as temporary differences.

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2020 and the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company incurred a net operating loss and, accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been recorded. In addition, no benefit for income taxes has been recorded due to the uncertainty of the realization of any tax assets. At March 31, 2020, the Company had approximately $4,975,000 of federal net operating losses. The net operating loss carry forwards, if not utilized, will begin to expire in 2025.

 

Based on the available objective evidence, including the Company’s history of its loss, management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets will not be fully realizable. Accordingly, the Company provided for a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

 

In accordance with FASB ASC 740, the Company has evaluated its tax positions and determined there are no uncertain tax positions.

 

Note 15 – Subsequent Events

 

Debt Financings

 

On May 4, 2020, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary OWP Ventures, Inc., borrowed $119,274 from Customers Bank (“Lender”), pursuant to a Promissory Note issued by OWP Ventures to Lender (the “PPP Note”). The loan was made pursuant to the Payroll Protection Program established as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”). The PPP Note bears interest at 1.00% per annum, payable monthly beginning December 4, 2020, and is due on May 4, 2022. The PPP Note may be repaid at any time without penalty.

 

Under the Payroll Protection Program, the Company will be eligible for loan forgiveness up to the full amount of the PPP Note and any accrued interest. The forgiveness amount will be equal to the amount that the Company spends during the 24-week period beginning May 4, 2020 on payroll costs, payment of rent on any leases in force prior to February 15, 2020 and payment on any utility for which service began before February 15, 2020. The maximum amount of loan forgiveness for non-payroll expenses is 40% of the amount of the PPP Note. No assurance is provided that the Company will obtain forgiveness under the PPP Note in whole or in part.

 

The PPP Note contains customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults, breach of representations and warranties, or provisions of the promissory note. The occurrence of an event of default may result in a claim for the immediate repayment of all amounts outstanding under the PPP Note.

 

On May 4, 2020, the Company received proceeds of $20,000 from Woodman Management in exchange for a demand note, bearing 6% interest per annum. The note was repaid in full on May 14, 2020.

 

On April 2, 2020, the Company received proceeds of $6,000 from MCKP Investments LLC in exchange for a demand note, bearing 6% interest per annum.

Overview

 

Through our wholly-owned subsidiary, One World Pharma S.A.S, a licensed cannabis cultivation, production and distribution (export) company located in Popayán, Colombia (nearest major city is Cali), we plan to produce raw cannabis and hemp plant ingredients for both medical and industrial uses across the globe. We have received licenses to cultivate, produce and distribute the raw ingredients of the cannabis and hemp plant for medicinal, scientific and industrial purposes. Specifically, we are one of the only companies in Colombia to receive seed, cultivation, extraction and export licenses from the Colombian government. Currently, we own approximately 30 acres and have a covered greenhouse built specifically to cultivate high-grade cannabis and hemp. In addition, we have entered into agreements with local farming co-operatives that include small farmers and indigenous tribe members, under which they will cultivate cannabis on up to approximately 140 acres of land using our seeds and propagation techniques, and sell their harvested products to us on an exclusive basis. We planted our first crop of cannabis in 2018, which we began harvesting in the first quarter of 2019 for the purpose of further research and development activities and quality control testing of the cannabis we have produced. We generated initial sales of fully registered non-psychoactive seeds during the second quarter of 2020.

 

On June 3, 2020, we appointed Isiah L. Thomas III to serve as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Vice Chairman pursuant to a letter agreement with the Company; entered into a Separation and Release Agreement with Craig Ellins, pursuant to which Mr. Ellins has resigned from all of his positions with the Company and its subsidiaries, including his positions as Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of the Company; and appointed Dr. Kenneth Perego, II to serve as the Executive Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors.

 

Mr. Thomas, 59, has been the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Isiah International, LLC, a holding company with interests in a diversified portfolio of businesses, since 2011. Mr. Thomas also has been a Commentator and Analyst for NBA TV, since 2014, and Turner Sports, since 2012. He previously served as the President & Alternate Governor of the New York Liberty of the Women’s National Basketball Association from 2015 to February 2019, the Head Basketball Coach at Florida International University, from 2009 to 2012, the General Manager, President of Basketball Operation and Head Coach of the New York Knicks of the National Basketball Association (“NBA”), from 2006 to 2008, the Head Coach of the Indiana Pacers of the NBA from 2000 to 2003, the Owner of the Continental Basketball Association from 1998 to 2000, Minority Owner & Executive Vice President of the Toronto Raptors of the NBA from 1994 to 1998 and point guard for the Detroit Pistons of the NBA from 1981 to 1994.

Revenues

 

We did not generate any revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2020 or the three months ended March 31, 2019.

 

General and Administrative Expenses

 

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were $291,053, compared to $479,620 during the three months ended March 31, 2019, a decrease of $188,567, or 39%. The expenses for the current period consisted primarily of compensation expenses, office rent, and travel costs. General and administrative expenses decreased primarily due to staffing reductions in the current period.

 

Professional Fees

 

Professional fees for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were $886,354, compared to $702,880 during the three months ended March 31, 2019, an increase of $183,474, or 26%. Professional fees included non-cash, stock-based compensation of $563,278 and $268,540 during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Professional fees increased primarily due to increased stock-based compensation during the current period.

 

Other Income (Expense)

 

Other expenses, on a net basis, for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were $10,509, compared to other expenses, on a net basis, of $141,016 during the three months ended March 31, 2019, a decrease in net expenses of $130,507, or 93%. Other expenses consisted of $10,509 of interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020, and $141,117 of interest expense, as offset by $101 of interest income, during the comparative three months ended March 31, 2019.

 

Net Loss

 

Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $1,187,916, or $0.03 per share, compared to $1,323,516, or $0.09 per share, during the three months ended March 31, 2019, a decrease of $135,600, or 10%. The net loss decreased primarily due to staffing reductions and the absence of $125,000 of amortized debt discounts recognized in the comparative period that were not recognized during the current period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The following is a summary of the Company’s cash flows provided by (used in) operating, investing, financing activities and effect of exchange rate changes on cash for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019:

 

   2020   2019 
Operating Activities  $(324,026)  $(982,490)
Investing Activities   (2,213)   (73,326)
Financing Activities   86,000    2,400,602 
Effect of Exchange Rate Changes on Cash   (21,359)   (8,287)
Net Increase in Cash  $(261,598)  $1,336,499 

 

Net Cash Used in Operating Activities

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, net cash used in operating activities was $324,026, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $982,490 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The cash used in operating activities was primarily attributable to our net loss.

 

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, net cash used in investing activities was $2,213, compared to net cash used in investing activities of $73,326 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The cash used in investing activities consisted of purchases of fixed assets.

 

Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, net cash provided by financing activities was $86,000, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $2,400,602 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The current period consisted of $86,000 of debt financing, compared to $450,000 of net proceeds received on debt financing and $1,950,602 of equity financing received during the three months ended March 31, 2019.

 

Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

 

As of March 31, 2020, our balance of cash on hand was $20,782, and we had negative working capital of $1,195,838 and an accumulated deficit of $9,355,082. We currently may not have sufficient funds to sustain our operations for the next twelve months and we may need to raise additional cash to fund our operations to the extent necessary to provide working capital.

 

The Company has incurred recurring losses from operations resulting in an accumulated deficit, and, as set forth above, the Company’s cash on hand is not sufficient to sustain operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management is actively pursuing new customers to generate revenues. In addition, the Company is currently seeking additional sources of capital to fund short term operations. Management believes these factors will contribute toward achieving profitability. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in achieving these objectives, becoming profitable or continuing our business without either a temporary interruption or a permanent cessation. Additional financing may result in substantial dilution to existing stockholders.

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of any uncertainty as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements also do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no outstanding off-balance sheet guarantees, interest rate swap transactions or foreign currency contracts. We do not engage in trading activities involving non-exchange traded contracts.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires our management to make assumptions, estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported, including the notes thereto, and related disclosures of commitments and contingencies, if any. We have identified certain accounting policies that are significant to the preparation of our financial statements. These accounting policies are important for an understanding of our financial condition and results of operations. Critical accounting policies are those that are most important to the presentation of our financial condition and results of operations and require management’s subjective or complex judgment, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and may change in subsequent periods. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting the estimate may differ significantly from management’s current judgments.

 

While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in notes to our consolidated financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, we believe that the following accounting policies are the most critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results and affect the more significant judgments and estimates that we used in the preparation of our financial statements.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company has not yet recognized revenue. The Company will recognize revenue in accordance with ASC 606 — Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Under ASC 606, the Company will recognize 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.

 

There was no impact on the Company’s financial statements from ASC 606 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, or the year ended December 31, 2019. Inventory consisted of $118,899 of raw materials at March 31, 2020.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to employees in accordance with the provisions of ASC 718 Stock Compensation (ASC 718) and Equity-Based Payments to Non-employees pursuant to ASC 505-50 (ASC 505-50). All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The measurement date of the fair value of the equity instrument issued is the earlier of the date on which the counterparty’s performance is complete or the date at which a commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached because of sufficiently large disincentives for nonperformance.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, the Company is not required to provide the information required by this Item

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Interim Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2020. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2020, including our inability to timely file this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) or in other factors that occurred during the period of our evaluation or subsequent to the date we carried out our evaluation which have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. The design of any system of controls and procedures is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. There can be no assurance that any system of controls and procedures will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.
