Unless otherwise stated or the context requires otherwise, references in this annual report on Form 10-K to “Digital Locations,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” refer to Digital Locations, Inc.

 

Overview

 

We are an early-stage aggregator, developer and acquirer of small cell sites and cell towers for 5G services. We intend to develop a providerportfolio of proximity basedsites to help meet the expected demand of rapidly growing 5G networks.

To rapidly enter the market, Digital Locations plans to acquire or partner with companies that have a portfolio of real estate that could be activated to meet the demands of 5G networks. Our goal is to become a “landlord” of tomorrow’s wireless communications assets. In furtherance of our objective, on or about January 7, 2021, we closed on the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of SmallCellSite.com, LLC, a source of more than 80,000 cell sites offered by property owners for use by wireless network operators. See “BUSINESS-Asset Purchase Agreement.”

With our purchase of SmallCellSite.com, LLC’s assets, we acquired proprietary web-based software which allows wireless carriers to access www.smallcellsite.com and search regionally for available properties that can be activated with wireless technology, producing revenue for both the site owner and Digital Locations.This aggregation of available property data solutions that help businesses better understandreduces site acquisition timeframes for the large wireless carriers and interact with consumers in various physical locations. We enable solutions that serve as a “bridge” between the physical and digital worlds, connecting peoplemakes it easier for them to place. By helping businesses transform their locations into smart venues, they can drastically improve their in-venue mobile experience. In addition, we help our clients identify, segmentsource, validate, and activate their most socially influential customers at events, conferences or business locations, leading to increased brand loyalty, engagement, message amplification and revenue. Whether the locations are airports, sports venues, movie theaters, or political rallies, we enable smart interaction and data collection.properties.

 

Our solutionsBy actively driving current property owners to list their property on smallcellsite.com, Digital Locations or its subsidiaries will be delivered as eitherreceive a Custom Integration, which is a non-recurring revenue model, or Enterprise Software as a Service or (SaaS), which is a monthly recurring revenue model.

Previously, our business was focused on developing a low-cost method to produce graphene. We have completed our development and research efforts around graphene through a sponsored research agreement with University of California at Santa Barbara, or UCSB, and do not see an opportunity to commercialize the findingsportion of the research agreement. We have determinedrevenue if and when the property is activated by the carrier. Management believes that this business model greatly reduces the capital expenditure of traditional models of acquiring real estate and building wireless towers, and gives the Company a modern alternative to refocus our efforts to becoming a proximity based data solutions provider to businesses.

Recent Developments

Teaming Agreement with Nikazathe development of traditional wireless small cells and towers.

 

On November 2, 2017, we entered into our first teaming agreement (the “Nikaza Agreement”) with Nikaza Inc. (“Nikaza”). Nikaza is an Internet of Things (IoT) platform that serves asJuly 20, 2021, the Company became a bridge between the physical and digital worlds, which helps business of all types transform their locations into smart venues.

The ProblemMarket Opportunity

5G wireless networks are expected to be 100 times faster than current 4G LTE networks. This will enable global scale killer applications such as self-driving cars, the Internet of things (“IOT”), mobile streaming of 4K videos, real-time hologram-based collaboration, and lag-free high-definition gaming.

To realize this vision, many new 5G broadcast locations are needed because high frequency 5G signals cannot travel farther than 100 meters. It is estimated that more than one million new 5G cell towers or small cells must be added in the United States alone. International Data Corporation (“IDC”) expects over two million—by 2021. By comparison, the existing 2G/3G/4G network, built over many years, has just over 300,000 cell towers. Recent frequency auction activity and new innovation means that we have more potential clients for our locations.

 

·The majority of mobile users consume content indoors.

·Existing methods for mobile location identification are imprecise.

·Precise indoor location identification is critical in order to deliver a relevant experience or advertisement.

·Market lacks simple to deploy, integrated solution which addresses hyper-local mobile advertising, digital display and data collection.

As 5G initially rolls out in major metropolitan and suburban areas, we believe that in addition to conventional “macro” cell towers, wireless carriers will also need networks of small cell antennas dotting the country to relay signals to and from these signal-emitting macro towers. Only when these networks of small cells are deployed will customers experience the true 5G that has been marketed with blazing speed and ultra-low latency. The current method for identifying available real estate assets, negotiating leases, completing necessary zoning and permits, and installing equipment is outdated, time-consuming and costly. In order to truly fulfill the marketed performance of ultra-wide band 5G, a better system and process must be deployed.

 

The SolutionWe believe that we can disrupt the legacy process carriers use to identify and activate properties through our acquisition of www.smallcellsite.com. By using www.smallcellsite.com, we believe that Digital Locations can capitalize on providing “activation-ready” real estate assets through software it has acquired that speeds up implementation, enables a repeatable process and reduces the overall costs of small cell roll out.

 

Nikaza Context Hub – The Nikaza Context Hub is the industry’s first location platform that can pinpoint a user’s location with a high degree of accuracy based on a combination of indoor- Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Beacon signals. This market leading Enterprise grade platform also enables hyper-local advertising campaign management. By deploying a Smart Sensor or Internet of Things (Iot) device that measures precise micro location using Wi-Fi, Near Field Communications, and Bluetooth signals, venue owners can gain real-time visibility to In Store Analytics such as insights into in-store guest behavior. Additionally, it provides visibility into visitation patterns broken down by day part and dwell time along with real time measurement of in-store visits at the aisle level.FCC Eases 5G Tower Deployment

 

Attribution - Our location dataThe United States government sees 5G as national agenda for economic and technological leadership in the next decade. Accordingly, in late 2018 the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) approved rules aimed at speeding up the deployment of small cells and other 5G network equipment by regulating in part the fees and timelines cities and states can impose on wireless network operators and other wireless players. The agency passed the rules with all commissioners voting in support. In addition, recent changes to the FCC Over-the Air Reception Devices (‘OTARD”) rules ensure that antennas used to distribute broadband fixed wireless services to multiple customer locations can be usedsited to help advertisers understandsupport next-generation network deployment, including 5G. This opens the relationship between ad-impressionsdoor to fixing 5G small cells to both commercial and in-store visits.residential locations. Previously, these types of 5G antennas were not allowed on residential structures, but we believe that these recent changes to the OTARD rules can swiftly enhance Digital Location’s plans.

 

Data Collection - Location Services Framework allows for First Party data collectionLocal Challenge of Cell Towers and activation.Opportunity

 

Data Syndication - ThroughWhile everyone wants lightning speed wireless networks, not everyone likes the appearance of cell towers on the sides of freeways or outskirts of town. While new FCC rules will make it easier to deploy new small cell antennas with less red tape, local city councils will still have a proprietary network of data buyers, we facilitate the monetization of context data on behalf of an enterprise.

Teaming Agreement with Ampsy

On March 14, 2018 we entered into our second teaming agreement (the “Ampsy Agreement”) with Fandedealio, Inc. dba Ampsy, a Delaware corporation (“Ampsy”), a location based audience discovery and engagement platform for Social Channels.

Pursuant to the terms of the Ampsy Agreement, the Company and Ampsy will seek to develop and secure contracts with potential customers in certain geographic markets for each other’s information technology services, solutions and products. If either party makes a bona fide referral of a present or potential customer to the other, the parties shall work together to developsay regarding antenna aesthetics. We see this challenge as an opportunity for oneus to partner with regional cell tower contractors with good local government relationships to help us with our cell tower projects. Once installed, each cell tower functions as a multi-tenant tower, hosting antennas for different wireless carriers or both of the parties to provide services and/or products to the customer. Once either party is selected as the prime contractor for an opportunity that the parties are jointly pursuing, the parties shall negotiate in good faith and proceed in a timely manner to execute a mutually acceptable subcontract to perform the services and/or to provide the products of the other party as part of the opportunity. If the parties are unable to agree on a subcontract within sixty (60) calendar days after award of a prime contract, or other period if mutually agreed in writing, either party shall have the right, upon ten (10) days’ prior notice to the other party, to terminate the Ampsy Agreement with respect to the applicable opportunity. The term of the Ampsy Agreement is for one (1) year and will automatically be renewed for additional one (1) year periods thereafter unless terminated by either party upon providing thirty (30) days prior written notice before the beginning of any renewal term.businesses.

 

The ProblemCompetition

 

Companies are spending significant budgets to discoverMany small cell antenna and activate local audiences via social channels, however, they do not utilizetower operators conduct business in the below:

·No Hashtag - 80% of social posts are missing a brand relevant hashtag or keyword. Without that anchor there is no way to capture and analyze that social content and engage with that user.

·

No Location Identifier – Even if a post contains a hashtag, this does not necessarily enable location accuracy.

The Solution

Ampsy Platform - The Ampsy platform combines proprietary geofencing technology with real-time experience analytics to deliverUnited States, nevertheless, the market is dominated by four large cell tower companies which account for roughly $175 billion in market value: American Tower (“AMT”), Crown Castle (“CCI”), SBA Communications (“SBAC”), and Vertical Bridge. While cell towers only constitute a live event media aggregation service with insights about attendees who take to social during games, concerts, conferences and more. Ampsy helps identify and compartmentalize this digitally-engaged live audience, uncovering people with influence over their followers. These influencers are important ongoing sales targets,tiny portion of total real estate asset value in addition to serving as candidates to be activated for future marketing campaigns. Ampsy provides the most agile and accurate location based social listening and influencer marketing / customer engagement platformUnited States, cell towers constitute disproportionately high importance in the market today.capitalization-weighted investible real estate indexes with AMT and CCI as the two single largest companies.

 

Cell tower companies primarily own "macro" communications towers that host cellular network broadcast equipment from AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, and Sprint, but CCI and UNIT also have significant investments in fiber and small-cell networks. AMC and SBAC focus on macro tower sites, but each also has significant international operations. Typically viewed as growth-oriented companies that pay relatively low dividend yields but command superior growth profiles, cell tower companies are among the newest Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”) sector, emerging after AMC converted to a REIT in 2012 followed by CCI in 2013 and SBAC in 2017.

Cell tower companies have been among the best-performing sectors over the past four years, powered by the network densification required by the early stages of the 5G rollout. More than any other real estate sector, cell tower ownership is highly concentrated. Cell tower companies own roughly 50-80% of the 100-150k investment-grade macro cell towers in the United States and due to this market power and significant barriers to entry, are perhaps the only real estate sector that could be classified as true price makers rather than price takers.

The Ampsy platform featuresCell tower companies continue to command strong competitive positioning in the telecommunications sector. Cell carriers sold off their tower assets beginning in the mid-2000s to de-lever their balance sheets and benefits include:

·No expensive clunky hardware.

·A proprietary geo-fencing technology which surfaces social conversations at specific locations.

·No hashtag needed.

·Machine learning surfaces the most relevant content and influencers based on pre-defined interests, behaviors and emotions.

·A real-time smart engagement engine that enables personalized 1-1 messaging at scale.

Teaming Agreement with Glanz, Inc.

On March 20,2018, we entered into our third teaming agreement with Glanz Inc. dba Corner Media (“Corner Media”). Corner Mediafree-up capital to expand their networks. Supply growth is a location based digital media company with a focus on premier, high pedestrian traffic locations. Corner Media brings together traditional outdooralmost non-existent in the United States as there are significant barriers to entry through the local permitting process and digital advertising to help businesses reach their ideal customers. Through digital displays, location-based mobile ads, and innovative outdoor advertising, Corner Media is helping retailers transform the way they advertise.

The Problem

For the longest time, the physical space has been trying to connectdue to the virtual one. Ineconomics of colocation versus building single-tenant towers. The relative scarcity of cell towers, combined with the past, display advertising was unconnected, static, not agile, flexible or adaptable.

The Solution

We deploy an integrated proximity based mobile and programmatic display platform that leverages where people are, allowing advertisers and retail owners to identify and influence consumers in a completely new way. Using location context, advertisers and retailers can create more relevant customer experiences, understand customer data and reach consumers on their path to purchase.

Market Opportunity

The market opportunityabsolute necessity of these towers for our solutions is significant. Gartner, Inc. forecasts that 8.4 billion “things” will be in use at the end of 2017, up 31% from 2016, setting the stage for the market to approach 20 billion connected “things” by 2020. According to a recent Markets and Research report, the proximity marketing market is expected to be worth $52 billion by 2022, growing at a CAGR of 29.8% between 2016 and 2022. The current marketplace is expected to be driven by the heavy demand for personalized location-based services which enable a contextually relevant user experience. In addition, the increased use of beacons and growing availability of spatial data and analytical tools further propel the growth of this market.

Businesses are making approximately $6.50 for every $1.00 spent on social influencer marketing. A staggering 59% of marketers intend to increase their influencer marketing budget in 2018 and in a recent survey nearly 40% of Twitter users say they have made a purchase as a direct result of a tweet from an influencer. That said, BIA Kelsey reports that roughly 67% of marketers consider finding relevant influencers their greatest challenge.

Competition

The market for our solutions is competitive, as the demand for scalable, compliant, data solutions is rapidly increasing. We compete with privatecell networks, has given these companies that offer a similar solution to ours, including Gimbal, Unacast, Near, Safe Graph, Freckle IOT, Ground Signal and public companies such as Clear Channel Outdoor ( CCO), Lamar Advertising (LAMR) and JC Deceaux Group (DEC)

We expect new market entrants and existing competitors to introduce new solutions that compete with ours.

M&A Opportunity

The market for Proximity Based data and marketing solutions is rapidly growing and therefore is incredibly fragmented. With the primary goals of increasing our asset value and diversifying our shareholder base, we have initiated a robust M&A effort by creating a deep pipeline of potential targets which meet our criteria, and a repeatable process for screening deals. We believe this space is uniquely suited for consolidation,substantial pricing power even as the number of privately heldpotential tenants has dwindled down to just four national carriers over the last two decades. These companies have benefited from the increase in network spending from the four national carriers during the early stages of the 5G rollout.

Intellectual Property

As a result of the APA, we acquired proprietary web-based software which meet our criteriaprovides a system and method for identifying wireless communication assets. A provisional patent application for this technology was filed on May 31, 2017 and we were notified on or about January 11, 2021, by the United States Patent and Trademark Office that the patent will be granted.

Government Regulation

Digital Locations generally is significant. This process involves both direct outreach by our internal business development team, in conjunctionsubject to all of the governmental regulations that regulate businesses generally such as compliance with ongoing dialogue with several merchant bankers marketing sell-side mandates.regulatory requirements of federal, state, and local agencies and authorities, including regulations concerning the environment, permits for certain activities, workplace safety, labor relations, employee rights, and government taxes. The are several factors that can negatively affect our ability to merge withadoption of any additional laws or acquire a business including but not limited toregulations may decrease the lack of liquidity in our public stock, the sizegrowth of our current market cap,business, decrease the demand for services and increase our inabilitycost of doing business. Changes in tax laws also could have a significant adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition. As we acquire small cell sites and towers, we will be subject to raise additional capital.regulations imposed by the FCC regarding the wireless network industry.

 

Corporate History

 

Digital Locations, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Nevada on August 25, 2006 as Zingerang, Inc.  On April 2, 2007, the Company changed its name to Carbon Sciences, Inc. and on September 14, 2017, the Company changed its name to Digital Locations, Inc.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

 

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS AND INDUSTRY

 

We are in the early stages of development and have limited operating history on which you can base an investment decision.

 

We were formed in August 2006, and have been developing a new technology for commercial use. We havebut recently changed our business focus. We have generated no revenues, have no real operating history upon which you can evaluate our business strategy or future prospects, and have negative working capital. As a result, our auditor issued an opinion in connection with our December 31, 20172022 financial statements, which expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern unless we obtain additional financing. Our ability to obtain additional financing and generate such revenuesrevenue will depend on whether we can successfully develop commercialize and license our technology andacquire a large portfolio of cell tower sites to make the transition from a development stage company to an operating company. We expect to continue to incur losses. In making your evaluation of our business, you should consider that we are a start-up business focused on developing and acquiring a new technology, are designing solutions that have no proven market acceptance,portfolio of cell tower sites and operate in a rapidly evolving industry. As a result, we may encounter many expenses, delays, problems, and difficulties that we have not anticipated and for which we have not planned. There can be no assurance that at this time we will successfully commercialize our technology,develop or acquire a significant portfolio of cell tower sites, operate profitably, or that we will have adequate working capital to fund our operations or meet our obligations as they become due.

We have hired aOur strategy is to grow by developing new Chief Executive Officer to implement our new strategy of growing the Companysmall cell sites and through the acquisition of other public or private operating companies engaged in the proximity marketing business.existing small cell sites and towers.  While we will endeavor to develop or acquire companiessmall cell sites and towers that are profitable and accretive, there is no assurance that any of our business development or acquisitions will be economically successful or perform as expected.  We may develop and acquire businessessmall cell sites and towers that incur unexpected losses or may not integrate well with the Company.  We may not realize profits on our business development or acquisitions for a number of reasons, including but not limited to paying higher than fair value, unexpected operating deficits, change in the market, loss of customers, reduced demand, loss of management, and other causes.

 

Factors which may affect our ability to grow successfully through acquisitions include:

·

inability to obtain financing;

·

difficulties and expenses in connection with integrating small cell sites and towers that we develop and acquire and achieving the expected benefits;

·

diversion of management’s attention from current operations;

·

the possibility that we may be adversely affected by risk factors facing the small cell sites and towers that we develop and acquire;

·

development and acquisition of small cell sites and towers could be dilutive to earnings, or in the event of acquisitions made through the issuance of our common stock to the stockholders of the acquired small cell sites and towers, dilutive to the percentage of ownership of our existing stockholders; and

·

potential losses resulting from undiscovered liabilities of the small cell sites and towers we develop and acquire not covered by indemnification.

If we are unable to effectively manage the transition from a development stage company to an operating company, our financial results will be negatively affected.

 

For the period from our inception, August 25, 2006, through December 31, 2017,2022, we incurred an aggregate net loss, and had an accumulated deficit, of $30,038,453.$50,164,550. For the years ended December 31, 20172022 and 2016,2021, we incurred netoperating losses of $2,388,454$3,635,616 and $277,663,$4,699,941, respectively. We reported net income of $969,014 for the year ended December 31, 2022, resulting primarily from a gain on change in derivative liability, and a net loss of $13,120,527 for the year ended December 31, 2021. Our operating losses are expected to continue to increase for at least the next 48 months as we commence full-scale development of our technology,new business plan, if feasible.  We believe we will require significant funding to make this transition, if full-scale development is commercially justified. If we do make such transition, we expect our business to grow significantly in size and complexity.  This growth is expected to place significant additional demands on our management, systems, internal controls, and financial and operational resources. As a result, we will need to expend additional funds to hire additional qualified personnel, retain professionals to assist in developing appropriate control systems, and expand our operating infrastructures. Our inability to secure additional resources, as and when needed, or manage our growth effectively, if and when it occurs, would significantly hinder our transition to an operating company, as well as diminish our prospects of generating revenues and, ultimately, achieving profitability.

 

Currently, we have not generated significantminimal revenue from this new and unproven segment of our business.

If we failAspects of our small cell site and tower business are subject to respond quickly to technological developments, our solutions may become uncompetitive and obsolete.

The mobile data market is expected to experience rapid technology developments, changes in industry standards, changes in customer requirements and frequent new product introductions and improvements. If we are unable to respond quickly to these developments, we may lose competitive position, and our solutions or technologies may become uncompetitive or obsolete, causing revenues and operating results to suffer. In order to compete, we may be required to develop or acquire new technologies and improve our existing technologies and processes on a schedule that keeps pace with technological developments and the requirements for our industry. We must also be able to support a range of changing customer preferences.

The future impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on companies is evolving and we are currently unable to assess with certainty the broad effects of Covid-19 on our business.

The future impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on companies continues to evolve and we are currently unable to assess with certainty the broad effects of Covid-19 on our business. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had no material assets that would be subject to impairment or change in valuation due to Covid-19.  However, as of December 31, 2022, the reported values of the Company’s material convertible debt and derivative liabilities are based on multiple factors, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility, variable conversion prices based on market prices as defined in the respective agreements and probabilities of certain outcomes based on management projections. We believe these inputs will be subject to even more significant changes due to the impact on capital markets of Covid-19, and the future estimated fair value of these liabilities may fluctuate materially from period to period.

Without reliable sources of revenue, we are currently dependent on debt or equity financing to fund our operations and execute our business plan.  We believe that the impact on capital markets of Covid-19 may make it more costly and more difficult for us to access these sources of funding.

We do not maintain theft or casualty insurance, and only maintain modest liability and property insurance coverage and therefore we could incur losses as a result of an uninsured loss.

 

We cannot assure that we will not incur uninsured liabilities and losses as a result of the conduct of our business.  Any such uninsured or insured loss or liability could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

If we lose key employees and consultants or are unable to attract or retain qualified personnel, our business could suffer.

 

Our success is highly dependent on our ability to attract and retain qualified management personnel. Competition for these qualified personnel is intense. We are highly dependent on our management and key consultants who have been critical to the development of our business. The loss of the services of key employees and key consultants could have a material adverse effect on our operations. We do have employment or consulting agreements with key individuals. However, there can be no assurance that any employees or consultants will remain associated with us. The efforts of key employees and consultants will be critical to us as we continue to develop our technology and as we attempt to transition from a development stage company to a company with commercialized products and services.  If we were to lose key employees or consultants, we may experience difficulties in competing effectively, developing our technology and implementing our business strategies.

 

RISKS RELATINGRELATED TO OUR COMMON STOCK

 

Our common stock is subject to volatility.

 

We cannot assure that the market price for our common stock will remain at its current level and a decrease in the market price could result in substantial losses for investors. The market price of our common stock may be significantly affected by one or more of the following factors:

 

·

announcements or press releases relating to the industry or to our own business or prospects;

 

·

regulatory, legislative, or other developments affecting us or the industry generally;

 

·

sales by holders of restricted securities pursuant to effective registration statements or exemptions from registration; and

 

·

market conditions specific to companies in our industry and the stock market generally.

·

market conditions specific to companies in our industry and the stock market generally.

 

If our common stock remains subject to the SEC’sSecurities and Exchange Commission’s penny stock rules, broker-dealers may experience difficulty in completing customer transactions and trading activity in our securities may be adversely affected.

 

Unless ourOur common stock is not listed on a national securities exchange, including the Nasdaq Capital Market, if we have stockholders’ equity of less than $5,000,000, or less and our common stock has a market price per share of less than $4.00,$4.00.  Accordingly, transactions in our common stock will beare subject to the SEC’sSecurities and Exchange Commission’s “penny stock” rules. If our common stock remains subject to the “penny stock” rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), broker-dealers may find it difficult to effectuate customer transactions and trading activity in our securities may be adversely affected.

 

In accordance with these rules, broker-dealers participating in transactions in low-priced securities must first deliver a risk disclosure document that describes the risks associated with such stocks, the broker-dealer's duties in selling the stock, the customer's rights and remedies and certain market and other information. Furthermore, the broker-dealer must make a suitability determination approving the customer for low-priced stock transactions based on the customer's financial situation, investment experience and objectives. Broker-dealers must also disclose these restrictions in writing to the customer, obtain specific written consent from the customer, and provide monthly account statements to the customer. The effect of these restrictions will probably decrease the willingness of broker-dealers to make a market in our common stock, decrease liquidity of our common stock and increase transaction costs for sales and purchases of our common stock as compared to other securities.  Our management is aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny stock market.

As a result, if our common stock becomes subject to the penny stock rules, the market price of our securities may be depressed, and you may find it more difficult to sell our securities.

If we fail to maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting, the price of our common stock may be adversely affected.

 

Our internal control over financial reporting may have weaknesses and conditions that could require correction or remediation, the disclosure of which may have an adverse impact on the price of our common stock. We are required to establish and maintain appropriate internal controls over financial reporting. Failure to establish those controls, or any failure of those controls once established, could adversely affect our public disclosures regarding our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations.

 

Rules adopted by the SECSecurities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 require an annual assessment of internal controls over financial reporting, and for certain issuers an attestation of this assessment by the issuer’s independent registered public accounting firm. The standards that must be met for management to assess the internal controls over financial reporting as effective are evolving and complex, and require significant documentation, testing, and possible remediation to meet the detailed standards. We expect to incur significant expenses and to devote resources to Section 404 compliance on an ongoing basis. It is difficult for us to predict how long it will take or costly it will be to complete the assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting for each year and to remediate any deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting. As a result, we may not be able to complete the assessment and remediation process on a timely basis. In addition, management’s assessment of internal controls over financial reporting may identify weaknesses and conditions that need to be addressed in our internal controls over financial reporting or other matters that may raise concerns for investors. Any actual or perceived weaknesses and conditions that need to be addressed in our internal control over financial reporting or disclosure of management’s assessment of our internal controls over financial reporting may have an adverse impact on the price of our common stock.

 

We are authorized to issue shares of preferred stock without stockholder approval, which could adversely impact the rights of holders of our common stock.

 

Our Articles of Incorporation authorize our Company to issue up to 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, of which 1,000 shares have been designated as Series A Preferred Stock, and 30,000 shares have been designated as Series B Preferred Stock, 36,000 shares have been designated as Series C Preferred Stock, 1,000 shares have been designated as Series D Preferred Stock, and 45,000 shares have been designated as Series E Preferred Stock. As of March 30, 2018the date of this report, there are no shares of Series A Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock, or Series D Preferred Stock issued and 16,155outstanding.  As of March 20, 2023, 14,241 shares of Series B Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding and 40,600 shares of Series E Preferred Stock were issued and outstanding.  We can issue additional shares of our preferred stock in one or more series and can set the terms of the preferred stock without seeking any further approval from our common stockholders. Any preferred stock that we issue may rank ahead of our common stock in terms of dividend priority or liquidation premiums and may have greater voting rights than our common stock. In addition, such preferred stock may contain provisions allowing those shares to be converted into shares of common stock, which could dilute the value of common stock to current stockholders and could adversely affect the market price, if any, of our common stock. In addition, the preferred stock could be utilized, under certain circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company.  Although we have no present intention to issue any additional shares of authorized preferred stock, there can be no assurance that we will not do so in the future.

 

Shares eligible for future sale may adversely affect the market.

 

From time to time, certain of our stockholders may be eligible to sell all or some of their shares of common stock by means of ordinary brokerage transactions in the open market pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), subject to certain limitations. In general, pursuant to amended Rule 144, non-affiliate stockholders may sell freely after six months subject only to the current public information requirement.  Affiliates may sell after six months subject to the Rule 144 volume, manner of sale (for equity securities), current public information and notice requirements. Of the 38,776,436665,688,783 shares of our common stock outstanding as of December 31, 2017,March 20, 2023, approximately 38,284,528655,910,924 shares are freely tradable without restriction. Any substantial sales of our common stock pursuant to Rule 144 may have a material adverse effect on the market price of our common stock.

We do not expect to pay dividends in the future and any return on investment may be limited to the value of our common stock.

 

We do not currently anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. The payment of dividends on our common stock will depend on earnings, financial condition and other business and economic factors affecting it at such time as the Board of Directors may consider relevant. Our current intention is to apply net earnings, if any, in the foreseeable future to increasing our capital base and development and marketing efforts. There can be no assurance that we will ever have sufficient earnings to declare and pay dividends to the holders of our common stock, and in any event, a decision to declare and pay dividends is at the sole discretion of our Board of Directors. If we do not pay dividends, our common stock may be less valuable because a return on investment will only occur if its stock price appreciates.

Current Overview

 

Digital LocationsOn January 7, 2021, the Company, SmallCellSite.com LLC, a Virginia limited liability company (“SCS LLC”), and SmallCellSite, Inc., a newly formed Nevada corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“SCS”) entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (“APA”) to acquire substantially all of the assets of SCS LLC’s wireless communications marketing and database services business in consideration for a total purchase price of $10,000 in cash and a five-year convertible promissory note in the amount of $1,000,000 made in favor of SCS or its assignees (the “Note”). Pursuant to the APA, SCS LLC instructed the Company to assign $500,000 principal amount of the Note to each of SCS’s two members. SCS LLC is a solutions providersource of proximity based data solutions that help businesses better understand and interact with consumers in various physical locations. We enable solutions that servemore than 80,000 cell sites offered by property owners for use by wireless network operators. 

The SCS LLC business acquisition has been accounted for as a “bridge”purchase and, effective January 7, 2021, the accounts of SCS are consolidated with those of the Company. Consequently, the results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2021 are not comparable to the results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Subsequent to the SCS LLC business acquisition, we intend to aggressively market and add more potential wireless sites to our database through non-exclusive marketing agreements with property owners. Management believes that the addition of more sites in the database will give our customers more options to select sites that meet their internal criteria. Once sites are selected and activated, additional revenue per site will be recognized by the Company.

On July 20, 2021, the Company became a member of the Digital Place-based Advertising Association (DPAA), the leading global trade marketing association connecting out-of-home (OOH) media with the advertising community while moving OOH to digital. We expect our membership in the DPAA to provide many business acceleration benefits, including a wide array of products and an extensive database of research, best practices and case studies; tools for planning, training and forecasting; social media amplification of news; insights on software and hardware solutions; further integration into the advertising ecosystem as part of the video everywhere conversation and marketing campaign.

Results of Operations

Year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021

Revenues

As discussed above, the purchase of the operating assets of SCS LLC was effective January 7, 2021, with SCS revenues included in our consolidated statement of operations from that date forward. Revenues were $23,068 and $24,029 for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Monthly payments are received by the Company from wireless carriers, with the Company paying the property owner a percentage of revenues ranging from 70% to 85%. The net amount is retained by the Company as consideration for its intermediary services and recorded as revenues.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses increased to $3,656,684 in the year ended December 31, 2022 from $2,625,881 in the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase in general and administrative expenses in the current year is due primarily to increased consulting and professional fees paid related to management of the Company and the identification of new business opportunities for the Company. In addition, we help our clients identify, segmentreported non-cash compensation expense from the issuance of non-qualified stock options of $2,986,546 in the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to $1,699,964 in the year ended December 31, 2021. The increased stock option compensation was partially offset by a decrease in the current year in non-cash stock-based compensation for common stock issued to consultants for services valued at $20,000 in the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to $416,200 in the year ended December 31, 2021.

Depreciation and Enterprise Software as a Service or SaaS (monthly recurring) revenue model.amortization expense of $2,000 in each of the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 consisted of the amortization of intangible assets acquired in the SCS LLC business acquisition.

 

Previously,Impairment of Assets

The excess of the total purchase price paid over the value assigned to the identifiable tangible assets acquired in the APA of $2,096,089 was recorded as goodwill. The goodwill was not amortized but evaluated periodically for impairment. As of December 31, 2021, management determined that it was more likely than not that the recorded value of goodwill would not be recovered. Consequently, a non-cash impairment of assets expense of $2,096,089 was recorded for the year ended December 31, 2021.  There was no impairment of assets expense for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Other Income (Expense)

Total other income was $4,604,630 for the year ended December 31, 2022.  Total other expense was $8,420,586 for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Our interest expense decreased to $509,633 in the year ended December 31, 2022 from $919,095 in the year ended December 31, 2021. The decrease in interest expense in the current fiscal year resulted primarily from lower amortization of debt discount as we have had multiple convertible notes payable fully converted to common stock. In addition, on April 2, 2021, an accredited investor converted $2,618,690 of principal and $872,306 of accrued interest under various 10% convertible notes payable held by the investor to a total of 34,800 shares of our businessSeries E Preferred Stock, reducing our overall convertible debt interest. The increase or decrease in our interest expense results primarily from the timing of amortization of debt discount recorded on our convertible promissory notes. We also have increased our funding from the proceeds of Series E preferred stock in the current year, which financial instrument is non-interest bearing.

We reported a gain on change in derivative liabilities of $5,108,229 and $8,979,516 in the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.  We estimate the fair value of the derivatives associated with our convertible notes payable and stock options using a multinomial lattice model based on projections of various potential future outcomes. These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility, variable conversion prices based on market prices as defined in the respective agreements, and probabilities of certain outcomes based on management projections. These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period and to management’s judgment; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material.

We recognized a gain on forgiveness of debt of $6,304 in the year ended December 31, 2022. Pursuant to an agreement with a lender, the Company agreed to extinguish a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $40,000 with four payments of $10,000, which were made in the months of February, March, April and May 2022. Accrued interest payable of $6,034 was focusedforgiven by the lender in May 2022, which amount is reported as other income. 

We reported a loss on developingextinguishment of debt of $16,490,508 in year ended December 31, 2021 resulting from the issuance of Series E Preferred Stock in consideration for the conversion of convertible notes payable, accrued interest payable and fees.  The Series E Preferred Stock was recorded at fair value of $23,393,601 as estimated by an independent valuation firm, resulting in a low-cost methodloss of $16,490,508 after recording the reduction of debt, accrued interest payable and derivative liabilities.

Net Income (Loss)

As a result of the activity discussed above, we reported net income of $969,014 in the year ended December 31, 2022 and a net loss of $13,120,527 in the year ended December 31, 2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2022, we had total current assets of $31,113, comprised of cash, and total current liabilities of $1,517,823, resulting in a working capital deficit of $1,486,720. Included in our current liabilities as of December 31, 2022 are derivative liabilities totaling $1,233,679, which we do not anticipate will require cash payments to produce graphene. settle.

Our liquidity was substantially improved with the issuance of shares of Series E Preferred Stock on April 2, 2021, where $2,617,690 of principal of convertible notes payable, $826,566 of accrued interest payable, and $45,740 of fees were converted to shares of Series E Preferred Stock. The Series E Preferred Stock is recorded as Mezzanine in our consolidated balance sheets.

We have completedfunded our developmentoperations primarily from the proceeds from the issuance of our Series E Preferred Stock and, research efforts around graphene through our SRAs with UCSBto a lesser extent, the proceeds of convertible notes payable. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we received net proceeds from Series E Preferred Stock of $520,000 and do not seeproceeds from convertible notes payable of $150,000. We also repaid convertible notes payable principal of $40,395.

Recent Financings

As part this strategy, on September 8, 2017, we reported that we had entered into a term sheet with Glanz, Inc. dba Corner Media, pertaining tostated valued of the purchase of Corner Media’s assets. Corner Media is a location-based digital media company in the out-of-home sector. On October 16, 2017, we determined not to proceed with this transaction.shares.

 

We have not yet generated revenues. We currently have negative working capital and received an opinion from our independent auditors on our financial statements that expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and liabilities, and commitments in the normal course of business. The accompanying financial statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon, among other things, raising additional capital. Since our inception through December 31, 2017, the Company has obtained funds primarily from the issuance of common stock and debt. Management believes this funding will continue, and is continually seeking new investors. Management believes the existing shareholders and lenders and prospective new investors will provide the additional cash needed to meet our obligations as they become due, and will allow the development of our core of business. However, there can be no assurance that such financing will be available upon terms that are acceptable to us, if at all.

Sources and Uses of Cash

During the year ended December 31, 2022, we used net cash of $666,358 in operating activities as a result of our net income of $969,014, non-cash expenses totaling $3,491,605 and an increase in accrued interest, notes payable of $21,712, offset by non-cash gains totaling $5,114,263 and decreases in accounts payable of $13,880, accounts payable – related party of $20,000, and accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $546.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, we used net cash of $577,239 in operating activities as a result of our net loss of $13,120,527, non-cash gains totaling $8,989,017 and decreases in accounts payable of $41,879 and accounts payable – related party of $50,000, partially offset by non-cash expenses totaling $21,479,671, and increases in accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $328 and accrued interest - notes payable of $144,185.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, we used net cash of $500 in investing activities, comprised of the payment of deposit.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, we used net cash of $10,000 in investing activities, comprised of the payment made in the SCS business acquisition. 

Net cash provided by financing activities was $629,605 during the year ended December 31, 2022, comprised of proceeds from convertible notes payable of $150,000 and proceeds from the issuance of Series E Preferred Stock of $520, partially offset by repayment of convertible notes payable of $40,395.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $637,000 in the year ended December 31, 2021, comprised of proceeds from convertible notes payable of $587,000 and proceeds from the issuance of Series E Preferred Stock of $50,000. 

Historically, proceeds received from the issuance of debt and preferred stock have been sufficient to fund our current operating expenses. We estimate that we will need to raise substantial capital or financing over the next twelve months in order to explore business expansion opportunities and provide the necessary capital to meet our other general and administrative expenses. We anticipate that we will incur operating losses in the next twelve months. Our revenue is not expected to exceed our investment and operating costs in the next twelve months. Therefore, our future operations are dependent on our ability to secure additional financing. Our recent funding opportunities have been limited due to downturns in the U.S. equity and debt markets resulting from the world-wide Covid-19 pandemic. Future financing transactions, if available, may include the issuance of equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities, or other financing mechanisms. However, the trading price of our common stock and continued downturn in the U.S. equity and debt markets could make it more difficult to obtain financing through the issuance of equity or debt securities.

Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek alternative financing. Furthermore, if we issue additional equity or debt securities, stockholders may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences, or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our common stock. The inability to obtain additional capital may restrict our ability to grow and may reduce our ability to continue to conduct business operations. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we may have to curtail our marketing and development plans and possibly cease our operations.

Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses, and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stage of operations. To address these risks, we must, among other things, seek growth opportunities through investment and acquisitions, implement and successfully execute our business strategy, respond to competitive developments, and attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel. We cannot assure that we will be successful in addressing such risks, and the failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

Future Impact of Covid-19

The negative impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on companies continues and we are currently unable to assess with certainty the broad effects of Covid-19 on our future business. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had no material assets that would be subject to impairment or change in valuation due to Covid-19.  However as of December 31, 2022, the reported values of the Company’s material convertible debt and derivative liabilities are based on multiple factors, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility, variable conversion prices based on market prices as defined in the respective agreements and probabilities of certain outcomes based on management projections. We believe these inputs will be subject to even more significant changes due to the impact on capital markets of Covid-19, and the future estimated fair value of these liabilities may fluctuate materially from period to period. 

With a limited source of revenue, we are currently dependent on debt or equity financing to fund our operations and execute our business plan. We believe that the impact on capital markets of Covid-19 may make it more costly and more difficult for us to access these sources of funding.

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements. The following is a summary of those accounting policies that involve significant estimates and judgment of management.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying financial statements. Significant estimates made in preparing these financial statements include the estimate of useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assets, operating lease obligations, impairment of assets, the deferred tax valuation allowance, the fair value of stock options and derivative liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Fair Value of Financial InstrumentsIntangible Assets

 

Disclosures about fair value of financial instruments require disclosure of the fair value information, whether or not recognizedThe identifiable intangible assets acquired in the balance sheet, where it is practicable to estimate that value. AsAPA are amortized using the straight-line method over an estimated life of December 31, 2017 and 2016, we believe the amounts reported for cash, prepaid expenses, accrued interest, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, and convertible notes payable approximate fair value because of their short maturities.5 years. 

 

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. ASC Topic 820 established a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

·Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;

��

·Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and

·Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

In accordance with GAAP, management utilizes 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 as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These estimates and assumptions relate to recording net revenue, collectability of accounts receivable, useful lives and impairment of tangible and intangible assets, accruals, income taxes, inventory realization, stock-based compensation expense and other factors. Management believes it has exercised reasonable judgment in deriving these estimates. Consequently, a change in conditions could affect these estimates.

Derivative Liabilities

 

We have identified the conversion features of our convertible notes payable and our Series B Preferred Stockcertain stock options as derivatives. Where the number of common shares to be issued under these agreements is indeterminate, the Company has concluded that the equity environment is tainted, and all additional options, convertible debt and equity are included in the value of the derivatives. We estimate the fair value of the derivatives associated with our convertible notes payableusing the Black-Scholes pricing model and the fair value of the derivatives associated with our outstanding Series B Preferred Stock using a multinomial lattice model based on projections of various potential future outcomes. We estimate the fair value of the derivative liabilities at the inception of the financial instruments, at the date of conversions to equity and at each reporting date, recording a derivative liability, debt discount, additional paid-in capital and a gain or loss on change in derivative liabilities as applicable. These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility, variable conversion prices based on market prices as defined in the respective agreements and probabilities of certain outcomes based on management projections. These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period and to management's judgment; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Disclosures about fair value of financial instruments require disclosure of the fair value information, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, where it is practicable to estimate that value.  As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, we believe the amounts reported for cash, accounts payable, accounts payable – related party, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, accrued interest, notes payable and convertible notes payable approximate fair value because of their short maturities.

Revenue Recognition

We have adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606) pursuant to which revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

We determine revenue recognition through the following steps:

·

identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;

·

identification of the performance obligations in the contract;

·

determination of the transaction price;

·

allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

·

recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.

Through its wholly owned subsidiary and effective January 7, 2021, the Company acts as an intermediary or agent to facilitate a platform through which property owners market real estate, physical assets and billboards to wireless telephone carriers for placement of wireless communications network equipment. Contracts have been signed among the Company, the property owner, and the wireless telephone operator.  Monthly payments are received by the Company from the wireless carriers, with the Company paying the property owner a percentage of revenues ranging from 70% to 85%. The net amount is retained by the Company as consideration for its intermediary services and recorded as revenues in the accompanying statements of operations.

Table of Contents

Income Taxes

 

We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

Stock-based compensation is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award granted using either the Black-Scholes option pricing model or a multinomial lattice model based on projections of various potential future outcomes and recognized over the period in which the award vests. For stock awards no longer expected to vest, any previously recognized stock compensation expense is reversed in the period of termination. The stock-based compensation expense is included in general and administrative expenses.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2017-11, "Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480) and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): I. Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features; II. Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Non-controlling Interests with a Scope Exception." Part I of this update addresses the complexity of accounting for certain financial instruments with down round features. Down round features are features of certain equity-linked instruments (or embedded features) that result in the strike price being reduced on the basis of the pricing of future equity offerings. Current accounting guidance creates cost and complexity for entities that issue financial instruments (such as warrants and convertible instruments) with down round features that require fair value measurement of the entire instrument or conversion option. Part II of this update addresses the difficulty of navigating Topic 480, "Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity," because of the existence of extensive pending content in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. This pending content is the result of the indefinite deferral of accounting requirements about mandatorily redeemable financial instruments of certain nonpublic entities and certain mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interests. The amendments in Part II of this update do not have an accounting effect. This ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently unable to determine the impact on its consolidated financial statements of the adoption of this new accounting pronouncement.

 

Although there are several other new accounting pronouncements issued or proposed by the FASB, which the Company has adopted or will adopt, as applicable, the Company does not believe any of these accounting pronouncements has had or will have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

Results of Operations

Year ended December 31, 2017 compared to the year ended December 31, 2016

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses increased by $176,074 to $799,589 in the year ended December 31, 2017 from $623,515 in the year ended December 31, 2016. The increase in general and administrative expenses is due primarily to increases in salary, professional and consulting fees.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses were $65,009 in the year ended December 31, 2017 and were incurred under our third SRA, entered into in March 2017 and concluded on September 30, 2017. Research and development expenses were $65,497 in the year ended December 31, 2016 and were incurred under our second SRA, entered into in December 2015 and expired on June 30, 2016. We currently are under no contract to further research and development activities. There were no payments to research and development consultants in either year.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense

Depreciation and amortization expense was $675 and $617 for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Our investment in property and equipment currently is not material to our operations.

Other Income (Expense)

Total other expense was $1,523,181 for the year ended December 31, 2017 and total other income was $411,966 for the year ended December 31, 2016. The change in total other income (expense) is primarily due to the fluctuation in gain (loss) on change in derivative liabilities.

We reported a loss on change in derivative liabilities of $638,432 in the year ended December 31, 2017 compared to a gain on change in derivative liabilities of $1,217,339 in the year ended December 31, 2016. Our convertible debt continued to increase during the current year resulting in additional derivative liabilities. We estimate the fair value of the derivatives associated with our convertible notes and our Series B Preferred Stock using a multinomial lattice model based on projections of various potential future outcomes. These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility, variable conversion prices based on market prices as defined in the respective agreements and probabilities of certain outcomes based on management projections. These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period and to management’s judgment; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material.

Our interest expense increased by $104,098 to $902,748 for the year ended December 31, 2017 from $798,650 for the year ended December 31, 2016. The increase in interest expense is the result of additional convertible notes payable in the current fiscal year and the amortization of debt discount for the new convertible debt.

The gain (loss) on settlement of debt results from the conversion of convertible debt into equity. We recognized a gain on settlement of debt of $11,643 in year ended December 31, 2017 and a loss on settlement of debt of $33,561 in the year ended December 31, 2016.

We have also reported rental income from the sublease of our office space of $6,356 and $26,838 for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, that is not material to our operations.

Net Loss

As a result, our net loss for the year ended December 31, 2017 was $2,388,454 compared to a net loss of $277,663 for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2017, we had total current assets of $25,459, including cash of $23,461, and total current liabilities of $9,489,633, resulting in a working capital deficit of $9,464,174. Included in our current liabilities at December 31, 2017 are derivative liabilities totaling $8,072,904, which we do not anticipate will require cash payments to settle.

During the year ended December 31, 2017, we used net cash2022, the Company adopted ASC 2020-06, “Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entities Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40).” ASC 2020-6 reduces the number of $859,111 in operating activities as a resultacceptable methods of our net lossaccounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stocks. The implementation of $2,388,454, non-cash gainASC 2020-6 had no material impact on settlement of debt of $11,643 and increase in prepaid expenses of $93, partially offset by non-cash expenses totaling $1,429,869 and increases in accounts payable of $4,387 and accrued expenses of $106,823.the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2016, we used net cash of $688,607 in operating activities as a result of our net loss of $277,663, non-cash gain on change in derivative liabilities of $1,217,339 and decrease in accounts payable of $25,910, partially offset by non-cash expenses totaling $764,723, a decrease in prepaid expenses of $102 and an increase in accrued expenses and other current liabilities of $67,480.ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

During the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, we had net cash used in investing activities of $1,945 and $1,472, respectively, for the purchase of property and equipment.Not applicable.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2017 was $844,583, comprised of proceeds from convertible notes payable of $855,000, partially offset by repayment of convertible notes payable of $10,417.

Net cash provided by financing activities during the year ended December 31, 2016 was $692,317, comprised of proceeds from convertible notes payable of $707,000, partially offset by repayment of convertible notes payable of $14,683.

Although most recently, proceeds received from the issuance of debt are sufficient to fund our current operating expenses, we will need to raise additional funds in the future to continue our operations and emerge from the development stage. Therefore, our future operations are dependent on our ability to secure additional financing. Financing transactions may include the issuance of equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities, or other financing mechanisms. However, the trading price of our common stock and a downturn in the U.S. equity and debt markets could make it more difficult to obtain financing through the issuance of equity or debt securities. Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses, or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek alternative financing. Furthermore, if we issue additional equity or debt securities, stockholders may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences, or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our common stock. The inability to obtain additional capital may restrict our ability to grow and may reduce our ability to continue to conduct business operations. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we may have to curtail our marketing and development plans and possibly cease our operations.

We believe that we have assets to ensure that we can continue to operate without liquidation over the next twelve months, due to our current cash, and our experience in the past in being able to raise money from our investor base. Therefore, we believe we have the ability to continue our operations for the foreseeable future and will be able to realize assets and discharge liabilities in the normal course of our operations.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and liabilities, and commitments in the normal course of business. The accompanying financial statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. The Company does not generate any revenue, and has negative cash flows from operations, which raises 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 upon, among other things, raising additional capital. Since our inception through December 31, 2017, the Company has obtained funds primarily from the issuance of common stock and debt. Management believes this funding will continue, and is continually seeking new investors. Management believes the existing shareholders and lenders and prospective new investors will provide the additional cash needed to meet the Company’s obligations as they become due, and will allow the development of its core of business. However, we cannot assure that we will be successful in these endeavors.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Based on an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) required by paragraph (b) of Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15, as of December 31, 2017,2022, our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer also concluded that, as of December 31, 2017,2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

We are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Exchange Act Rule 13a-15. With the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer, our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 20172022 based on the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013). Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2017,2022, based on those criteria. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. 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.

 

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 the Company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. We have identified the following material weaknesses:

1.

As of December 31, 2022, we did not maintain effective controls over the control environment. Specifically, the Board of Directors does not currently have any independent members. Since this entity level control has a pervasive effect across the organization, management has determined that this circumstance constitutes a material weakness.

22

2.

As of December 31, 2022, due to the inherent issue of segregation of duties in a small company, we have relied heavily on entity or management review controls and engaged an outside financial consultant to lessen the issue of segregation of duties over accounting, financial close procedures and controls over financial statement disclosure. Accordingly, management has determined that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness.

Table

3.

As of ContentsDecember 31, 2022, we did not establish a formal written policy for the approval, identification, and authorization of related party transactions.

Because of these material weaknesses, management has concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on the criteria established in "Internal Control-Integrated Framework" issued by the COSO.

 

Changes in Internal Controls

 

During the three months ended December 31, 2017,2022, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

No Attestation Report by Independent Registered Accountant

 

The annual report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

 

Although we have not adopted a formal policy on whether the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer positions should be separate or combined, we have recently determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to separate these roles.

 

Our Board of Directors focuses on the most significant risks facing our companyCompany and our company’sCompany’s general risk management strategy, and also ensure that risks undertaken by our Company are consistent with the Board’s appetite for risk. While the Board oversees our company’sCompany’s risk management, management is responsible for day-to-day risk management processes. We believe this division of responsibilities is the most effective approach for addressing the risks facing our companyCompany and that our Board leadership structure supports this approach.

Limitation of Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors

 

Under the Nevada Revised Statutes and our Articles of Incorporation, our directors will have no personal liability to us or our stockholders for monetary damages incurred as the result of the breach or alleged breach by a director of his “duty of care.” This provision does not apply to the directors’ (i) acts or omissions that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing and culpable violation of law, (ii) acts or omissions that a director believes to be contrary to the best interests of the corporation or our shareholders or that involve the absence of good faith on the part of the director, (iii) approval of any transaction from which a director derives an improper personal benefit, (iv) acts or omissions that show a reckless disregard for the director’s duty to the corporation or our shareholders in circumstances in which the director was aware, or should have been aware, in the ordinary course of performing a director’s duties, of a risk of serious injury to the corporation or our shareholders, (v) acts or omissions that constituted an unexcused pattern of inattention that amounts to an abdication of the director’s duty to the corporation or our shareholders, or (vi) approval of an unlawful dividend, distribution, stock repurchase or redemption. This provision would generally absolve directors of personal liability for negligence in the performance of duties, including gross negligence.

 

The effect of this provision in our Articles of Incorporation is to eliminate the rights of Digital Locations and our stockholders (through stockholder’s derivative suits on behalf of Digital Locations) to recover monetary damages against a director for breach of his fiduciary duty of care as a director (including breaches resulting from negligent or grossly negligent behavior) except in the situations described in clauses (i) through (vi) above.  This provision does not limit nor eliminate the rights of Digital Locations or any stockholder to seek non-monetary relief such as an injunction or rescission in the event of a breach of a director’s duty of care. In addition, our Articles of Incorporation provide that if Nevada law is amended to authorize the future elimination or limitation of the liability of a director, then the liability of the directors will be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the law, as amended. The Nevada Revised Statutes grants corporations the right to indemnify their directors, officers, employees and agents in accordance with applicable law. Our bylaws provide for indemnification of such persons to the full extent allowable under applicable law. These provisions will not alter the liability of the directors under federal securities laws.

 

23

Table of Contents

We intend to enter into agreements to indemnify our directors and officers, in addition to the indemnification provided for in our bylaws. These agreements, among other things, indemnify our directors and officers for certain expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, and settlement amounts incurred by any such person in any action or proceeding, including any action by or in the right of Digital Locations, arising out of such person’s services as a director or officer of Digital Locations, any subsidiary of Digital Locations or any other company or enterprise to which the person provides services at the request of Digital Locations. We believe that these provisions and agreements are necessary to attract and retain qualified directors and officers.

 

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling Digital Locations pursuant to the foregoing provisions, Digital Locations has been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

Code of Ethics

 

We have adopted a Code of Ethics that applies to all of our directors, officers and employees. The text of the Code of Ethics can be accessed on Digital Location’s Internet website at www.digitallocations.com. A copy of the Code of Ethics has also been filed as an exhibit to our Annual Reportannual report for the year ending December 31, 2007, filed with the SEC on March 26, 2008, and incorporated herein by reference. Any waiver of the provisions of the Code of Ethics for executive officers and directors may be made only by the Audit Committee and, in the case of a waiver for members of the Audit Committee, by the Board of Directors. Any such waivers will be promptly disclosed to our shareholders.

 

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company's directors, executive officers and persons who own more than 10% of the Company's stock (collectively, "Reporting Persons") to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and changes in ownership of the Company's common stock. Reporting Persons are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file. To the Company's knowledge, based solely on its review of the copies of such reports received or written representations from certain Reporting Persons that no other reports were required, the Company believes that during its fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 all Reporting Persons timely complied with all applicable filing requirements.

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION.

 

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

 

The following Compensation Discussion and Analysis describes the material elements of compensation for our executive officers identified in the Summary Compensation Table (“Named Executive Officers”), and executive officers that we may hire in the future. As more fully described below, our Board of Directors makes all decisions for the total direct compensation of our executive officers, including the Named Executive Officers. We do not have a compensation committee, so all decisions with respect to management compensation are made by the whole Board.

 

Compensation Program Objectives and Rewards

 

Our compensation philosophy is based on the premise of attracting, retaining, and motivating exceptional leaders, setting high goals, working toward the common objectives of meeting the expectations of customers and stockholders, and rewarding outstanding performance. Following this philosophy, in determining executive compensation, we consider all relevant factors, such as the competition for talent, our desire to link pay with performance in the future, the use of equity to align executive interests with those of our stockholders, individual contributions, teamwork and performance, and each executive’s total compensation package. We strive to accomplish these objectives by compensating all executives with total compensation packages consisting of a combination of competitive base salary and incentive compensation.

28
Table of Contents

 

While we have only hired three executives since inception because our business has not grown sufficiently to justify additional hires, we expect to grow and hire in the future. To date, we have not applied a formal compensation program to determine the compensation of the Named Executives Officers.  In the future, as we and our management team expand, our Board of Directors expects to add independent members, form a compensation committee comprised of independent directors, and apply the compensation philosophy and policies described in this section of the Form 10-K.

 

The primary purpose of the compensation and benefits described below is to attract, retain, and motivate highly talented individuals when we do hire, who will engage in the behaviors necessary to enable us to succeed in our mission while upholding our values in a highly competitive marketplace.  Different elements are designed to engender different behaviors, and the actual incentive amounts which may be awarded to each Named Executive Officer are subject to the annual review of the Board of Directors. The following is a brief description of the key elements of our planned executive compensation structure.

 

 

·

Base salary and benefits are designed to attract and retain employees over time.

 

·

·Incentive compensation awards are designed to focus employees on the business objectives for a particular year.

 

·

·Equity incentive awards, such as stock options and non-vested stock, focus executives’ efforts on the behaviors within the recipients’ control that they believe are designed to ensure our long-term success as reflected in increases to our stock prices over a period of several years, growth in our profitability and other elements.

 

·

·Severance and change in control plans are designed to facilitate a company’s ability to attract and retain executives as we compete for talented employees in a marketplace where such protections are commonly offered. We currently have not given separation benefits to any of our Name Executive Officers.

Benchmarking

 

We have not yet adopted benchmarking but may do so in the future. When making compensation decisions, our Board of Directors may compare each element of compensation paid to our Named Executive Officers against a report showing comparable compensation metrics from a group that includes both publicly-traded and privately-held companies. Our Board believes that while such peer group benchmarks are a point of reference for measurement, they are not necessarily a determining factor in setting executive compensation as each executive officer’s compensation relative to the benchmark varies based on scope of responsibility and time in the position. We have not yet formally established our peer group for this purpose.

 

The Elements of Digital Location’s Compensation Program

 

Base Salary

 

Executive officer base salaries are based on job responsibilities and individual contribution. The Board reviews the base salaries of our executive officers, including our Named Executive Officers, considering factors such as corporate progress toward achieving objectives (without reference to any specific performance-related targets) and individual performance experience and expertise. None of our Named Executive Officers have employment agreements with us. Additional factors reviewed by the Board of Directors in determining appropriate base salary levels and raises include subjective factors related to corporate and individual performance. For the year ended December 31, 2017,2022, all executive officer base salary decisions were approved by the Board of Directors.

 

Our Board of Directors determines base salaries for the Named Executive Officers at the beginning of each fiscal year, and the Board proposes new base salary amounts, if appropriate, based on its evaluation of individual performance and expected future contributions. We do not have a 401(k) Plan, but if we adopt one in the future, base salary would be the only element of compensation that would be used in determining the amount of contributions permitted under the 401(k) Plan.

Incentive Compensation Awards

 

The Named ExecutivesExecutive Officers have not been paid bonuses and our Board of Directors has not yet established a formal compensation policy for the determination of bonuses. If our revenue grows and bonuses become affordable and justifiable, we expect to use the following parameters in justifying and quantifying bonuses for our Named Executive Officers and other officers of Digital Locations: (1) the growth in our revenue, (2) the growth in our earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted (“EBITDA”), and (3) our stock price. The Board has not adopted specific performance goals and target bonus amounts for any of our fiscal years, but may do so in the future.

 

Equity Incentive Awards

 

In November 2011, our Board adopted a stock option plan (the “2011 Plan”) under which 2,000,000 shares of common stock have been reserved for issuance. No stock option awards have yet been made to any of our Named Executives or other officers or employees of Digital Locations under the 2011 Plan. Our Board has granted a total of 1,400,0006,223 stock options, on a post Stock-Split basis, to our current Presidentofficers and a former Chief Executive Officerdirectors outside of our 2011 Plan. The 6,223 stock options expired unexercised in September 2020.

On October 19, 2020, our Board granted non-qualified stock options outside of the 2011 Plan to purchase 5,000,000 shares of our common stock to our current Chief Executive Officer. These non-qualified stock options vest 1/24th per month over 24 months and are exercisable on a cash or cashless basis at $0.0108 per share for a period of five years from the date of issuance.

On December 22, 2020, our Board granted non-qualified stock options outside of the 2011 Plan to purchase 25,000,000 shares of our common stock to our current President, 5,000,000 shares of our common stock to a member of our Board of Directors, and a total of 175,000,000 shares of our common stock to two consultants. These non-qualified stock options vest 1/36th per month over 36 months and are exercisable on a cash or cashless basis at $0.017 per share for a period of five years from the date of issuance.

27

Table of Contents

On January 28, 2021, our Board granted non-qualified stock options outside of the 2011 Plan to purchase a total of 20,000,000 shares of our common stock to two employees. These non-qualified stock options vest 1/36th per month over 36 months and are exercisable on a cash or cashless basis at $0.05 per share for a period of five years from the date of issuance.

On December 1, 2021, our Board granted non-qualified stock options outside of the 2011 Plan to purchase a total of 504,000,000 shares of our common stock to our Chief Executive Officer. These options vest 84,000,000 shares in month 6 and 14,000,000 shares per month in each of the 30 months thereafter, and are exercisable on a cash or cashless basis at $0.0074 per share for a period of ten years from the date of issuance.

On February 8, 2022, our Board granted non-qualified stock options outside of the 2011 Plan to purchase a total of 45,000,000 shares of our common stock to a consultant. These non-qualified stock options vest 1/36th per month over 36 months and are exercisable on a cash or cashless basis at $0.0081 per share for a period of ten years from the date of issuance.

On February 8, 2022, our Board granted non-qualified stock options outside of the 2011 Plan to purchase a total of 75,000,000 shares of our common stock to our President and Chairman of our Board of Directors. These non-qualified stock options vest 1/36th per month over 36 months and are exercisable on a cash or cashless basis at $0.0081 per share for a period of ten years from the date of issuance.

These equity incentive awards, we believe, motivate our officers, consultants and employees to work to improve our business and stock price performance, thereby further linking the interests of our senior management and our stockholders. The Board considers several factors in determining whether awards are granted to an executive officer, including those previously described, as well as the executive’s position, his or her performance and responsibilities, and the amountnumber of options or other awards, if any, currently held by the officer and their vesting schedule. Our policy prohibits backdating options or granting them retroactively.

 

Benefits and Prerequisites

 

At this stage of our business, we have limited benefits and no prerequisites for our employees other than health insurance and vacation benefits that are generally comparable to those offered by other small private and public companies or as may be required by applicable state employment laws. We do not have a 401(k) Plan or any other retirement plan for our Named Executive Officers. We may adopt these plans and confer other fringe benefits for our executive officers in the future if our business grows sufficiently to enable us to afford them.

 

Separation and Change in Control Arrangements

 

We have employment agreements with our Named Executive Officers as more fully described below. None of our Named Executive Officers are eligible for specific benefits or payments if their employment or engagement terminates in a separation or if there is a change of control.

Stock Option and Other Long-Term Incentive Plan

 

On November 2, 2011, our Board of Directors adopted the 2011 Equity Incentive Plan, or the 2011 Plan. Under the 2011 Plan, options may be granted which are intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,as amended, or the Code, or which are not intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options thereunder. In addition, direct grants of stock or restricted stock may be awarded. There are 2,000,000 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2011 Plan. A summary of the terms and provisions of the 2011 Plan are described below.

 

The primary purpose of the 2011 Plan is to attract and retain the best available personnel in order to promote the success of our business and to facilitate the ownership of our stock by employees and others who provide services to us. Under the 2011 Plan, options may be granted to employees, officers, directors or consultants of ours. The term of each option granted under the 2011 Plan will be contained in a stock option agreement between the optionee and us and such terms shall be determined by a committee of the Board of Directors consistent with the provisions of the 2011 Plan, including the following:

 

31

Table of Contents

 

·

The purchase price of the common stock subject to each incentive stock option will not be less than the fair market value (as set forth in the 2011 Plan), or in the case of the grant of an incentive stock option to a principal stockholder, not less than 110% of fair market value of such common stock at the time such option is granted.

 

 

 

 

·

The dates on which each option (or portion thereof) will be exercisable and the conditions precedent to such exercise, if any, shall be fixed by the committee delegated by the Board of Directors, in its discretion, at the time such option is granted. Unless otherwise provided in the grant agreement, in the event of a change of control (as set forth in the Incentive Stock Plan), the committee delegated by the Board may accelerate the vesting and exercisability of outstanding options all unvested shares shall immediately become vested;

 

 

 

 

·

Any option granted to an employee of ours will become exercisable over a period of no longer than five years. No option will in any event be exercisable after ten years from, and no Incentive Stock Option granted to a ten percent stockholder will become exercisable after the expiration of five years from, the date of the option;

 

 

 

 

·

No option will be transferable, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and any option may be exercised during the lifetime of the optionee only by such optionee. No option granted under the 2011 Plan will be subject to execution, attachment or other process;

 

 

 

 

·

In the event of any change in our outstanding common stock by reason of a stock split, stock dividend, combination or reclassification of shares, recapitalization, merger, or similar event, the Board of Directors or the committee delegated by the Board may adjust proportionally (a) the number of shares of common stock (i) reserved under the 2011 Plan, (ii) available for Incentive Stock Options and Non-statutory Options and (iii) covered by outstanding stock awards or restricted stock purchase offers; (b) the exercise prices related to outstanding grants so that each optionee’s proportionate interest is maintained as immediately before such event; and (c) the appropriate fair market value and other price determinations for such grants. In the event of a corporate merger, consolidation, acquisition of property or stock, separation, reorganization or liquidation, the Board of Directors or the committee delegated by the Board of Directors will be authorized to issue or assume stock options, whether or not in a transaction to which Section 424(a) of the Code, applies, and other grants by means of substitution of new grant agreements for previously issued grants or an assumption of previously issued grants.

 

The Board of Directors may, insofar as permitted by law, from time to time, suspend or terminate the 2011 Plan or revise or amend it in any respect whatsoever, except that without the approval of our stockholders, no such revision or amendment will (i) increase the number of shares subject to the 2011 Plan, (ii) reduce the exercise price of outstanding options or effect repricing through cancellations and re-grants of new options, (iii) materially increase the benefits to participants, (iv) materially change the class of persons eligible to receive grants under the 2011 Plan; (v) decrease the exercise price of any grant  to below 100% of the fair market value on the date of grant; or (vi) extend the term of any options beyond that provided in the 2011 Plan; provided, however, no such action will alter or impair the rights and obligations under any option, or stock award, or restricted stock purchase offer outstanding as of the date thereof without the written consent of the participant thereunder.  As of the date of this report, 100,000no stock options are currently outstanding under our 2011 Plan.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures of Audit and Non-Audit Services of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

The audit committee’s policy is to pre-approve, typically at the beginning of our fiscal year, all audit and non-audit services, other than de minimis non-audit services, to be provided by an independent registered public accounting firm. These services may include, among others, audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services and such services are generally subject to a specific budget. The independent registered public accounting firm and management are required to periodically report to the full Board of Directors regarding the extent of services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm in accordance with this pre-approval, and the fees for the services performed to date. As part of the Board’s review, the Board will evaluate other known potential engagements of the independent auditor, including the scope of work proposed to be performed and the proposed fees, and approve or reject each service, taking into account whether the services are permissible under applicable law and the possible impact of each non-audit service on the independent auditor’s independence from management. At audit committee meetings throughout the year, the auditor and management may present subsequent services for approval. Typically, these would be services such as due diligence for an acquisition, that would not have been known at the beginning of the year.

 

The audit committee has considered the provision of non-audit services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm to be compatible with maintaining their independence. The audit committee will continue to approve all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm.

 

As of the date of this filing, our current policy is to not engage Liggett & Webb P.A.M&K CPAS, PLLC to provide, among other things, bookkeeping services, appraisal or valuation services, or international audit services. The policy provides that we engage Liggett & Webb P.A.M&K CPAS, PLLC to provide audit tax compliance, and other assurance services, such as review of SEC reports or filings.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and ShareholdersStockholders of

Digital Locations, Inc. (formerly Carbon Sciences, Inc.)

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Digital Locations, Inc. (the "Company")Company) as of December 31, 20172022 and 2016,2021, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the yearstwo-year period then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 20172022 and 2016,2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

The Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company does not generate revenuehas suffered net losses from operations and has negative cash flows from operations.  Thisa net capital deficiency, which raises substantial doubt about the Company’sits ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to theseregarding those matters are also describeddiscussed in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

 /s/ LIGGETT & WEBB, P.A.   Critical Audit Matters

 

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinion on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Company uses management estimates on various inputs to the calculation. Auditing a specialist’s calculation of the value of derivatives can be a significant judgment given the fact that the Company uses the specialists estimates on various inputs to the calculation. As discussed in Note 9 to the financial statements, the company has a derivative liability due to a tainted equity environment.

To evaluate the appropriateness of the fair value determined by management, we examined and evaluated the inputs management used in calculating the fair value of the derivative liability. To evaluate the appropriateness of the estimates used by the derivative specialist, we examined and evaluated the inputs the specialist used in calculating the value of the derivatives.

DIGITAL LOCATIONS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

(Formerly Carbon Sciences, Inc.)

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Years Ended December 31, 20172022 and 20162021

 

1. ORGANIZATION AND LINEBASIS OF BUSINESSPRESENTATION

 

Organizational HistoryOrganization

 

Digital Locations, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on August 25, 2006 as Zingerang, Inc. On April 2, 2007, the Company changed its name to Carbon Sciences, Inc. and on September 14, 2017, the Company changed its name to Digital Locations, Inc.

 

OverviewAs further discussed in Note 3, on January 7, 2021, the Company, SmallCellSite.com LLC, a Virginia limited liability company (“SCS LLC”) and SmallCellSite, Inc., a newly formed Nevada corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Businessthe Company (“SCS”) entered into an asset purchase agreement (“APA”) to acquire SCS LLC’s wireless communications marketing and database services business. SCS LLC is a source of more than 80,000 cell sites offered by property owners for use by wireless network operators.

 

In June 2014, the Company entered into its first Sponsored Research Agreement (“SRA #1”) with the University of California at Santa Barbara (“UCSB”) to develop a low-cost method to produce graphene. SRA #1 expired on June 30, 2015. In December 2015, the Company entered into a second Sponsored Research Agreement (“SRA #2”) with UCSB to develop a new graphene-based optical modulator, a critical fiber optics component for enabling ultrafast fiber optics communication in data centers for Cloud computing. SRA #2 expired on June 30, 2016. In March 2017, the Company entered into a third Sponsored Research Agreement (“SRA #3”) with UCSB to continue the development of a new graphene-based optical modulator. SRA #3 concluded on September 30, 2017.

On October 30, 2017, the Company provided UCSB with notice to exercise its right to negotiate a license for use of any invention subject to SAR #3. The Company has 90 days from the date of its notice to conclude a license agreement with UCSB. If the Company successfully concludes a license agreement with UCSB, then it must diligently proceed with the commercial development and early marketing of the invention.

The Company’s current business focus is a growth-by-acquisition strategy to extend its presence in the information technology (“IT”) market.

Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have beenare prepared onusing accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations,contemplate the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As of December 31, 2022, our current liabilities exceeded our current and total assets by $1,497,443 and we had an accumulated deficit of $50,164,550. The accompanying financial statements doCompany currently does not reflect any adjustmentshave the cash resources to meet its operating commitments for the next twelve months and expects to have ongoing requirements for capital investment or debt to implement its business plan. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt that might result if the Company is unablewill be able to continue as a going concern. The Company does not generate any revenue, and has negative cash flows from operations, which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue asconcern for a going concern. reasonable period of time.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon, among other things, raising additional capital. Since its inception through December 31, 2017, theThe Company has obtained operating funds primarily from the issuance of common stock andconvertible debt. Management believes this funding will continue and is continually seeking new investors. Management believes the existing shareholders and lenders and prospective new investors will provide the additional cash needed to meet the Company’s obligations as they become due, and will allow the development of its core of business.due. There can be no assurance, however, that wethe Company will be successful in accomplishing ourits objectives. Without such additional capital we may be required to cease operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

This summary of significant accounting policies is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements.  The financial statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity.  These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

 

F-8
Table of Contents

Revenue Recognition

We will recognize revenue when services are performed, and at the time of shipment of products, provided that evidence of an arrangement exists, title and risk of loss have passed to the customer, fees are fixed or determinable, and collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured. To date, we have had no revenues.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying financial statements. Significant estimates made in preparing these financial statements include the estimate of useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assets, impairment of assets, the deferred tax valuation allowance, the fair value of stock options and derivative liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Property and EquipmentReclassifications

Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and, equipmenteffective January 7, 2021, the accounts of SCS, its wholly owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, the Company considers liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with large commercial banks.  The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insures these balances, up to $250,000.  All of the Company’s cash balances at December 31, 2022 and 2021 were insured.  As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, there were no cash equivalents.

Intangible Assets

The identifiable intangible assets acquired in the APA are stated at cost, and are depreciatedamortized using the straight linestraight-line method over the followingan estimated useful lives:life of 5 years. 

 

Computer equipment

Goodwill

3 Years

Machinery and equipment

7 Years

 

DepreciationThe excess of the total purchase price paid over the value assigned to the identifiable intangible assets acquired in the APA has been recorded as goodwill.  The goodwill is not amortized but evaluated periodically for impairment.  Management of the Company determined that, as of December 31, 2021, it was more likely than not that the recorded amount of goodwill of $2,096,089 would not be recovered; therefore, an impairment of assets expense for this amount was recorded in the yearsstatement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 was $675 and $617, respectively.2021.

 

Derivative Liabilities

 

We have identified the conversion features of our convertible notes payable and our Series B preferredcertain stock options as derivatives. Where the number of common shares to be issued under these agreements is indeterminate, the Company has concluded that the equity environment is tainted, and all additional options, convertible debt and equity are included in the value of the derivatives. We estimate the fair value of the derivatives using the Black-Scholes pricing model and a multinomial lattice model based on a probability weighted discounted cash flow model.projections of various potential future outcomes. We estimate the fair value of the derivative liabilities at the inception of the financial instruments, at the date of conversions to equity and at each reporting date, recording a derivative liability, debt discount, additional paid-in capital and a gain or loss on change in derivative liabilities as applicable. These estimates are based on multiple inputs, including the market price of our stock, interest rates, our stock price volatility, variable conversion prices based on market prices as defined in the respective agreements and probabilities of certain outcomes based on management projections. These inputs are subject to significant changes from period to period and to management’smanagement's judgment; therefore, the estimated fair value of the derivative liabilities will fluctuate from period to period, and the fluctuation may be material.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Disclosures about fair value of financial instruments require disclosure of the fair value information, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, where it is practicable to estimate that value.  As of December 31, 20172022 and 2016,2022, we believe the amounts reported for cash, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued interest,accounts payable – related party, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, accrued interest and convertiblecertain notes payable approximate fair value because of their short maturities.

Table of Contents

 

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.  ASC Topic 820 established a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value.  The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements).  These tiers include:

 

F-10

Table of Contents

 

·

Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;

·Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and

 

·

·Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which littleone or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which onemore significant inputs or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

Revenue Recognition

We have adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (Topic 606) pursuant to which revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

We determine revenue recognition through the following steps:

·

identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;

·

identification of the performance obligations in the contract;

·

determination of the transaction price;

·

allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and

·

recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.

Table of Contents

Through its wholly owned subsidiary and effective January 7, 2021 (see Note 3), the Company acts as an intermediary or agent to facilitate a platform through which property owners market real estate, physical assets and billboards to wireless telephone carriers for placement of wireless communications network equipment. Contracts have been signed among the Company, the property owner, and the wireless telephone operator.  Monthly payments are received by the Company from the wireless carriers, with the Company paying the property owner a percentage of revenues ranging from 70% to 85%.  The net amount is retained by the Company as consideration for its intermediary services and recorded as revenues in the accompanying statements of operations.

 

LossLease Accounting

Pursuant to the underlying contracts, the Company does not own the property and equipment which is leased by cell phone carriers but acts as an intermediary or agent between the property owner and the cell phone carriers.  Therefore, in accordance with ASC 840 and 841, “Leases,” the Company records revenues net of amounts received from cell phone carriers and payments made to property owners.

Concentrations of Credit Risk, Major Customers, and Major Vendors

During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company received payments from two cell phone carriers, with one carrier representing substantially all payments.

During the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had one landlord receiving all Company payments for lease of billboard site locations.

Income (Loss) per Share Calculations

 

Basic net income or loss per common share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income or loss per common share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and the dilutive potential common share equivalents then outstanding. Potential dilutive common share equivalents consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants to acquire common stock, using the treasury stock method and the average market price per share during the period, and shares issuable upon exercise of convertible notes payable and convertible preferred stock.payable.

 

Since we had no dilutive effect of stock options, warrants, convertible notes payable and convertible preferred stock for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, our basicBasic weighted average number of common shares outstanding is the same as ourreconciled to diluted weighted average number of common shares outstanding. outstanding as follows:

Income Taxes

 

We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method.  Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

Research and Development Costs

 

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.  TotalWe incurred no research and development costs were $65,009 and $65.497 for the years ended December 31, 20172022 and 2016, respectively.2021.

 

Advertising Costs

 

We expense the cost of advertising and promotional materials when incurred.  We incurred no material advertising costs for the years ended December 31, 20172022 and 2016.2021.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

Stock-based compensation is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award granted using either the Black-Scholes option pricing model or a multinomial lattice model based on projections of various potential future outcomes and recognized over the period in which the award vests.vests or straight-line.  For stock awards no longer expected to vest, any previously recognized stock compensation expense is reversed in the period of termination.  The stock-based compensation expense is included in general and administrative expenses.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In July 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-11, “Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480) and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): I. Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features; II. Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Non-controlling Interests with a Scope Exception.” Part I of this update addresses the complexity of accounting for certain financial instruments with down round features. Down round features are features of certain equity-linked instruments (or embedded features) that result in the strike price being reduced on the basis of the pricing of future equity offerings. Current accounting guidance creates cost and complexity for entities that issue financial instruments (such as warrants and convertible instruments) with down round features that require fair value measurement of the entire instrument or conversion option. Part II of this update addresses the difficulty of navigating Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” because of the existence of extensive pending content in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. This pending content is the result of the indefinite deferral of accounting requirements about mandatorily redeemable financial instruments of certain nonpublic entities and certain mandatorily redeemable non-controlling interests.

Series B Preferred Stock

On March 2, 2016, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation for its Series B Preferred Stock (the “Series B Certificate”) with the Secretary of State of Nevada designating 30,000 shares of its authorized preferred stock as Series B Preferred Stock. The shares of Series B Preferred Stock have a par value of $0.001 per share.

The total face value of this entire series is three million dollars ($3,000,000). Each share of Series B Preferred Stock has a stated face value of One Hundred Dollars ($100) (“Share Value”), and is convertible into shares of fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock (“Common Stock”) of the Company.

As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company had 16,155 shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding, with a face value of $1,615,500. These shares were issued in March 2016 for the redemption and cancellation of $1,615,362 of convertible promissory notes and $264,530 of accrued interest payable.

The holders of outstanding shares of the Series B Preferred Stock (the “Holders”) are entitled to receive dividends pari passu with the holders of Common Stock, except upon a liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Company, in which case the Series B Preferred Stock has a preference. Such dividends will be paid equally to all outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock and Common Stock, on an as-if-converted basis with respect to the Series B Preferred Stock. The Holders may elect to use the most favorable conversion price for the purpose of determining the as-if-converted number of shares.

In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, either voluntary or involuntary, the Holder of each outstanding share of the Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to its shareholders upon such liquidation, whether such assets are capital or surplus of any nature, an amount equal to one hundred dollars ($100) for each such share of the Series B Preferred Stock (as adjusted for any combinations, consolidations, stock distributions, stock splits or stock dividends with respect to such shares), plus all dividends, if any, declared and unpaid thereon as of the date of such distribution, before any payment is made or any assets distributed to the holders of the Common Stock. After such payment, the remaining assets of the Company will be distributed to the holders of Common Stock.

If the assets to be distributed to the Holders of the Series B Preferred Stock are insufficient to permit the receipt by such Holders of the full preferential amounts, then all of such assets will be distributed among such Holders ratably in accordance with the number of such shares then held by each such Holder.

The sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into any other entity or person, or any other corporate reorganization, in which the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such consolidation, merger or reorganization, own less than fifty percent (50%) of the Company’s voting power immediately after such consolidation, merger or reorganization, or any transaction or series of related transactions to which the Company is a party in which in excess of fifty percent (50%) of the Company’s voting power is transferred, excluding any consolidation or merger effected exclusively to change the domicile of the Company, is deemed to be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up.

The Series B Preferred Stock is convertible into Common Stock.

The Holder has the right, at any time, at its election, to convert all or part of the Share Value into shares of Common Stock. The conversion price is the lesser of (1) Fifty Percent (50%) of the lowest trade price of Common Stock recorded on any trade day after December 12, 2012 or (2) the lowest effective price per share granted to any person or entity, including the Holder but excluding officers and directors of the Company, to acquire Common Stock, or adjusted, whether by operation of purchase price adjustment, settlement agreements, exchange agreements, reset provision, floating conversion or otherwise, any outstanding warrant, option or other right to acquire Common Stock or outstanding Common Stock equivalents (the “Conversion Price”).

The conversion formula is as follows: The number of shares receivable upon conversion equals the Share Value divided by the Conversion Price. A conversion notice (the “Conversion Notice”) may be delivered to Company by any method of Holder’s choice (including but not limited to email, facsimile, mail, overnight courier, or personal delivery), and all conversions will be cashless and not require further payment from the Holder. If no objection is delivered from the Company to the Holder, with respect to any variable or calculation reflected in the Conversion Notice, within 24 hours of delivery of the Conversion Notice, the Company will thereafter be deemed to have irrevocably confirmed and ratified such notice of conversion and waived any objection. The Company will deliver the shares of Common Stock from any conversion to the Holder (in any name directed by the Holder) within three (3) business days of Conversion Notice delivery. If the Company is participating in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer (“FAST”) program, then upon request of the Holder and provided that the shares to be issued are eligible for transfer under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or are effectively registered under the Securities Act, the Company will cause its transfer agent to electronically issue the Common Stock issuable upon conversion to the Holder through the DTC Direct Registration System (“DRS”). If the Company is not participating in the DTC FAST program, then the Company agrees in good faith to apply and cause the approval for participation in the DTC FAST program.

The Conversion Price is subject to equitable adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends or rights offerings by the Company relating to the Company’s securities or the securities of any subsidiary of the Company, combinations, recapitalization, reclassifications, extraordinary distributions and similar events. No fractional shares of the Common Stock shall be issuable upon the conversion of shares of the Series B Preferred Stock and the Company shall pay the cash equivalent of any fractional share upon such conversion.

If the Company fails to deliver shares in accordance with the required time frame, then for each conversion, a penalty of $1,500 per day will be assessed for each day after the third business day (inclusive of the day of the conversion) until share delivery is made. Such penalty may be converted into Common Stock at the Conversion Price or payable in cash, at the sole option of the Holder (under the Holder’s and the Company’s expectations that any penalty amounts shall tack back to the original date of the issuance of Series B Preferred Stock, consistent with applicable securities laws).

In no event will the Holder be entitled to convert any Series B Preferred Stock, such that upon conversion the sum of (1) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates (other than shares of Common Stock which may be deemed beneficially owned through the ownership of the unconverted portion of this Series B Preferred Stock or the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other security of the Company subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to these limitations), and (2) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of Series B Preferred Stock, would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. The limitations on conversion may be waived by the Holder upon, at the election of the Holder, not less than 61 days prior notice to the Company, and the provisions of the conversion limitation shall continue to apply until such 61st day (or such later date, as determined by the Holder, as may be specified in such notice of waiver).

Except as required by law, the Holders of Series B Preferred Stock are not entitled to vote, as a separate class or otherwise, on any matter presented to the stockholders of the Company for their action or consideration at any meeting of stockholders of the Company (or by written consent of stockholders in lieu of meeting). Each Holder of outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock will be entitled, on the same basis as holders of Common Stock, to receive notice of such action or meeting.

So long as any shares of the Series B Preferred Stock remain outstanding, the Company will not, without first obtaining the approval (by vote or written consent, as provided by law) of the holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock voting together as one class: (a) alter or change the rights, preferences or privileges of the shares of the Series B Preferred Stock so as to affect materially and adversely such shares; or (b) create any new class of shares having preference over the Series B Preferred Stock.

The Holder has the right, at its sole discretion, to elect a fixed conversion price for the Series B Preferred Stock. The Fixed Conversion Price may not be lower than the Conversion Price. The Company will not, by amendment of its Certificate of Incorporation, bylaws or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, scheme of arrangement, dissolution, issue or sale of securities, or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of the Series B Certificate, and will at all times carry out all the provisions of the Series B Certificate.

On March 2, 2016, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation for its Series B Preferred Stock (the “Series B Certificate”) with the Secretary of State of Nevada designating 30,000 shares of its authorized preferred stock as Series B Preferred Stock. The shares of Series B Preferred Stock have a par value of $0.001 per share.

The Company has given retroactive affect for the reverse stock split in all periods presented in the accompanying financial statements.

On April 29, 2016, our Board of Directors and the holder of a majority of the total issued and outstanding voting stock of the Company authorized and approved an amendment to the Company’s articles of incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 100,000,000 to 2,000,000,000.

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cut and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”). The Tax Act establishes new tax laws that affect 2018 and future years, including a reduction in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate to 21%, effective January 1, 2018. For certain deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities, we have recorded a provisional decrease of $1,382,720, with a corresponding net adjustment to valuation allowance of $1,382,720 as of December 31, 2017.

The ultimate realization of our deferred tax assets is dependent, in part, upon the tax laws in effect, our future earnings, and other events.  As of December 31, 2017,2022, we recorded a valuation allowance of $2,989,500$5,039,400 against our net current deferred tax.tax asset.  In recording the valuation allowance, we were unable to conclude that it is more likely than not that our deferred tax assets will be realized.

As of December 31, 2017,2022, we had a net operating loss carryforward available to offset future taxable income of approximately $9,875,000,$16,903,000, which begins to expire at dates that have not been determined.  If substantial changes in the Company’s ownership should occur, there would be an annual limitation of the amount of the net operating loss carryforward that could be utilized.

 

We perform a review of our material tax positions in accordance with recognition and measurement standards established by authoritative accounting literature, which requires a company to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based upon the technical merits of the position.  If the more-likely-than-not threshold is met, a company must measure the tax position to determine the amount to recognize in the financial statements.  Based upon our review and evaluation, during the years ended December 31, 20172022 and 2016,2021, we concluded the Company had no unrecognized tax benefit that would affect its effective tax rate if recognized.
