Competitive Conditions

 

Madison will be competing with other online retail companies possessing greater financial resources and technical facilities than Madison in connection with the sale of similar products. Many of the competitors have a very diverse portfolio and have not confined their market to one product or line of products, but offer a wide array of products. All of these competitors have been in business for longer than Madison and may have established more strategic partnerships and relationships than Madison.

 

Management believes that it will have a competitive advantage over its competitors due to its plan of operations.

 

Madison has identified numerous body armor and bullet proof inserts availablecompetitors in the women’s shaving market products segment, from a variety of online and offline merchants, and although most offer international shipping toproducts similar or the United Kingdom and Western Europe, the high cost of shipping and long delays in delivery makes purchasing from a US based retailer unattractive. Managementsame as Madison, management believes that by establishing relationships with fulfillment companies and having stock on hand in its distribution territories Madison will have a competitive advantage in the ability to fill orders and deliver the LicensedLuxurie Legs Products to its customers quicklybuilding on Catherine Zeta-Jones fame and followership to rapidly draw market attention which will develop buyer loyalty.

 

Madison has also identified several online retailers that are located in either the UK or Europe that supply products that management believes would be in direct competition with Madison’s business. Some of those competitors include, but not limited to, the following:

Raw MaterialsSovryn Holdings, Inc.

On February 16, 2021, Madison Technologies Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”) entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with Sovryn Holdings, Inc. (“Sovryn”) and Equipmentthe holders (the “Sovryn Shareholders”) of Sovryn’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock.

Product and Services

Through Sovryn Holdings, Inc., Madison has embarked on an acquisition strategy, rolling-up un-affiliated Class A/LPTV TV stations in the top 100 DMA’s (Designated Market Areas) with a goal of building out a nationwide platform through one or more station acquisitions per DMA. Each licensed TV station can broadcast between 10 and 12 and potentially more revenue “streams” of content (“channels”) over-the-air, 24 hours per day/7 days per week. Management’s strategy is to stage the acquisitions focusing on DMA’s 1-30 and expanding thereafter on DMA’s 31-100, acquiring one station per DMA and building a portfolio of 100 stations within 18-24 months. Management has currently identified and held discussions with a number stations owners, has received FCC approval for the acquisition of KNLA/KNET, a revenue producing Class A television station with coverage of 16mm people in the number 2 DMA in the U.S., Los Angeles, signed letters of intent with 3 other stations in the top 20 and verbal agreements on another 11 key, cash flowing stations in the top 30 markets.

Madison’s objective is to create one the largest, most comprehensive, state of the art, broadcast Over-The-Air (“OTA”) content distribution platforms to capitalize on the changing media and distribution landscape and on the growing OTA viewership in the U.S. The over-the-air programming carried on these stations is initially expected to include entertainment, shopping, weather, sports as well as religious networks and networks targeting select ethnic groups with content lease agreements as the prime source of revenue. Pricing of lease agreements is in part determined by market rank, the signal contour and the number of OTA TV households in a given market, as well as supply and demand.

As the platform is built out, management not only anticipates substantial operational synergies from the roll-up but also an expansion in the revenue base with greater channel utilization and the addition of high-quality third-party content providers that are currently not reaching the “OTA” viewers, which now stands at an estimated 20mm households (44mm people) out of 108mm TV HH’s nationwide.

Station Operations

Madison’s plan is to acquire 50 independent TV stations in the top 30 DMA’s over the next 6-12 months. In addition, Madison expects to grow the station base to 100 tv stations nationwide through additional acquisitions targeting the top 100 DMA’s across the nation, ultimately covering 80% of the population of the U.S. over the next 18-24 months.

Each licensed TV station has the capability of delivering 10+ different revenue “streams” (channels) of content Over-the-Air, 24 hours per day/7 days per week . If converted to the new FCC approved ATSC 3.0 technology, the streaming capacity will increase to 25+ channels or more, giving Sovryn the potential to stream content upon completion of the roll-up to over 2500 channels aggregated over expected 100 stations.

 

Madison does not require raw materials as Madison will purchase alloperate the Licensed Products directly from Tuffy Packs. Madison will require equipment related to online retailing including but not limited tostations remotely and centrally, eliminating the useneed for in-market personnel or a studio facility. Remote operations of URL’sstations results in significant cost efficiencies. Recent FCC deregulation in TV broadcasting has eliminated the need for its online stores, warehousingfull time employees and studio facilities (leased on a month to month basis), software systemsoperating Class A and Low Power stations allowing for inventory control and order fulfilment (leased on a month to month basis)greater cost efficiency.

 

Principal SuppliersNew Broadcast TV Technology

 

At presentIn 2017, the FCC approved ATSC 3.0 technology, a next generation broadcast platform that will bring new revenue opportunities to broadcast television. ATSC 3.0 is an enhancement to the previous standard, providing new opportunities such as increased capacity, mobility and addressability allowing for customizable content, viewer measurability, target advertising and internet connectivity. All these features and more will be available on mobile devices allowing for broadcast operators to capitalize on audiences traditionally reserved for telecom operators.

Competitive Conditions

Madison’s broadcast stations will face competition from other free over-the-air television and radio stations, telecommunication companies, cable and satellite providers, print media providers, internet and other emerging technologies. Some of the company’s current and potential competitors have greater resources and access to capital. If Madison will rely solelyneeds to obtain additional funding, the company may be not be able to obtain such capital on Tuffy Packsfavorable terms and be forced to provide alldelay its principal supplies.development as a result. Furthermore, technological advancements and the resulting increase in programming alternatives may increase competition for household audiences.

The FCC licenses are critical to the operations and we cannot operate without them. We cannot be certain that the FCC will renew these licenses in the future if acquired or approve new acquisitions in a timely manner. If licenses are not renewed or acquisitions are not approved, we may lose revenue that we could otherwise have earned and this would have an adverse effect on the overall business and financial condition.

In the United Kingdom there are currently no legal restrictions on the import and sale of ballistic vests and body armor products, except, as similar to the Europe regulations, any products which are considered for main military usage.

(e) Penny Stock Rules

 

Trading in Madison’s Common Stock is subject to the “penny stock” rules. The SEC has adopted regulations that generally define a penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. These rules require that any broker-dealer who recommends Madison’s Common Stock to persons other than prior customers and accredited investors, must, prior to the sale, make a special written suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to execute the transaction. Unless an exception is available, the regulations require the delivery, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated with trading in the penny stock market. In addition, broker-dealers must disclose commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities they offer. The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by such requirements may discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in Madison’s securities, which could severely limit their market price and liquidity of Madison’s securities. The application of the “penny stock” rules may affect your ability to resell Madison’s securities.

We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to complete our proposed business plan. For these reasons our auditors believe that there is substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern.

 

Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in operation.

There are no assurances that Madison will be able to achieve further sales of its Common Stock or any other form of additional financing.

Management expects to expand Madison’s sales distribution strategy beginning in May 20182021 and to be operational by September 2018,November 2021, this includes the following components:

 

1. Initial inventory with an estimated cost of $10,000$600,000

 

2. Social media and online advertising of $10,000

3. Payments to be made under Product License Agreement of $33,500$50,000

 

Madison sales strategy is to develop online exposure through the use of social media marketing and sending demo packsbrand influencers and top social media personas in an aggressive strategy to use the power of their social networks to help build and maintain the shave club membership base.

Sovryn Holdings, Inc.

Madison’s plan is to acquire 50 independent TV stations in the top 30 DMA’s over the next 6-12 months. In addition, Madison expects to grow the station base to 100 tv stations nationwide through additional acquisitions targeting the top 100 DMA’s across the nation, ultimately covering 80% of the Licensed Products to both online bloggers and established gun owner clubs. The demo packs will include both new products as well as examplespopulation of the products that have been testedU.S. over the next 18-24 months.

Each licensed TV station has the capability of delivering 10+ different revenue “streams” (channels) of content Over-the-Air, 24 hours per day/7 days per week . If converted to the new FCC approved ATSC 3.0 technology, the streaming capacity will increase to 25+ channels or more, giving Sovryn the potential to stream content upon completion of the roll-up to over 2500 channels aggregated over expected 100 stations.

Madison will operate the stations remotely and exposed to gunfire to demonstratecentrally, eliminating the products effectiveness.need for in-market personnel or a studio facility. Remote operations of stations results in significant cost efficiencies. Recent FCC deregulation in TV broadcasting has eliminated the need for full time employees and studio facilities operating Class A and Low Power stations allowing for greater cost efficiency.

 

In addition to the costs associated to Madison’s sales and distribution strategy, management anticipates incurring the following expenses during the next 12 month period:

 

 Management anticipates spending approximately $2,500$30,000 in ongoing general and administrative expenses per month for the next 12 months, for a total anticipated expenditure of $30,000$360,000 over the next 12 months. The general and administrative expenses for the year will consist primarily of professional fees for the audit and legal work relating to Madison’s regulatory filings throughout the year, as well as transfer agent fees, annual mineral claim fees and general office expenses.
   
 Management anticipates spending approximately $15,000 in complying with Madison’s obligations as a reporting company under theSecurities Exchange Act of 1934and as a reporting issuer in Canada. These expenses will consist primarily of professional fees relating to the preparation of Madison’s financial statements and completing and filing its annual report, quarterly report, and current report filings with the SEC and with SEDAR in Canada.

As at December 31, 2017,2020, Madison had cash of $3,281$9,491 and a working capital deficitcurrent liabilities of $377,208.$610,757. Accordingly, Madison will require additional financing in the amount of $418,927$601,266 in order to fund its obligations as a reporting company under theSecurities Act of 1934and its general and administrative expenses for the next 12 months.

 

During the 12 month period following the date of this annual report, management anticipates that Madison will not generate any revenue. Accordingly, Madison will be required to obtain additional financing in order to continue its plan of operations. Management believes that debt financing will not be an alternative for funding Madison’s plan of operations as it does not have tangible assets to secure any debt financing. Rather, management anticipates that additional funding will be in the form of equity financing from the sale of Madison’s Common Stock. However, Madison does not have any financing arranged and cannot provide investors with any assurance that it will be able to raise sufficient funding from the sale of its Common Stock to fund its plan of operations. In the absence of such financing, Madison will not be able to acquire any interest in a new technology and its business plan will fail. Even if Madison is successful in obtaining equity financing and acquire an interest in a new technology, additional research and development will be required before a determination as to whether the technology will be commercially viable. If Madison does not continue to obtain additional financing, it will be forced to abandon its business and plan of operations.

 

Purchase of Significant Equipment

 

We do not intend to purchase any significant equipment during the next 12 months.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

Madison has no off-balance sheet arrangements including arrangements that would affect its liquidity, capital resources, market risk support and credit risk support or other benefits.

 

Material Commitments for Capital Expenditures

 

Madison had no contingencies or long-term commitments at December 31, 2017.2020.

Going Concern

 

The independent auditors’ report accompanying our December 31, 20172020 and 20162019 financial statements contains an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates that we will realize our assets and satisfy our liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.

 

Tabular Disclosure of Contractual Obligations

 

Madison is a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and is not required to provide the information required under this item.

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Madison’s financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are affected by management’s application of accounting policies. Management believes that understanding the basis and nature of the estimates and assumptions involved with the following aspects of Madison’s financial statements is critical to an understanding of Madison’s financial statements.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses in the reporting period. Madison regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. Madison bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by Madison may differ materially and adversely from Madison’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

Madison follows FASB ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, for all financial instruments and non-financial instruments accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis. This new accounting standard establishes a single definition of fair value and a framework for measuring fair value, sets out a fair value hierarchy to be used to classify the source of information used in fair value measurement and expands disclosures about fair value measurements required under other accounting pronouncements. It does not change existing guidance as to whether or not an instrument is carried at fair value. Madison defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities, which are required to be recorded at fair value, Madison considers the principal or most advantageous market in which Madison would transact and the market-based risk measurements or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions and credit risk. Madison has adopted FASB ASC 825, “Financial Instruments”,which allows companies to choose to measure eligible financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not required to be measured at fair value. Madison has not elected the fair value option for any eligible financial instruments.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Impairment losses on long-lived assets, such as mining claims, are recognized when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by such assets are less than their carrying value and, accordingly, all or a portion of such carrying value may not be recoverable. Impairment losses are then measured by comparing the fair value of assets to their carrying amounts.

Convertible Debt

Prior to January 1, 2017, the Company considered that the reason for investing in convertible debt issued without interest was for the conversion feature and, accordingly, allocated all of the proceeds of this type of instrument to equity. The face value of the debt was allocated to additional paid in capital and was amortized and charged to interest on an effective interest rate basis. For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company corrected this policy and adopted FASB ASC Topic 470, “Debt with Conversions and Other Options,” which requires that convertible debt with no beneficial conversion feature be allocated in totality to debt and that no amount be allocated to equity. This change has been applied retroactively to the financial statements

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Madison Technologies Inc.:

Opinion on the financial statements

 

I have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Madison Technologies Inc. as of December 31, 20172020 and 20162019 and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibilityeach of the Company’s management. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audits.

I conducted my audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States of America). Those standards require that I plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor was I engaged to perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. An audit includes examining on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosurestwo years in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessingperiod ended December 31, 2020 and the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management,related notes (collectively referred to as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. I believe that my audits provide a reasonable basis for my opinion.

“financial statements’). In my opinion, based on my audits, thesethe financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as ofat December 31, 20172020 and 2016 and the change in stockholders’ deficit2019 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2017 and 20162020 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Substantial Doubt about the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has incurred operating losses since inception, and has a working capital deficiency which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to their planned financing and other matters are also described 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’s management. My responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on my audits. My company is a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) and is 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.

I conducted my audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that I plan and perform an audit 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 was I engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of my audits, I am required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, I express no such opinion.

My 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. My audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. I believe that my audits provide a reasonable basis for my opinion.

Critical Audit Matter

Critical audit matters are matters 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. I determined that there are no critical audit matters.

Vancouver, CanadaI have served as the Company’s auditor since 2009.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

December 31, 20172020

 

Note 1Nature and Continuance of Operations

Up until fiscal 2014, the Company was in the business of mineral exploration. On May 28, 2014, the Company formalized an agreement whereby it purchased assets associated with a smokeless cannabis delivery system. The Company planned to develop this system for commercial purposes. On December 14, 2014, this asset purchase agreement was terminated.

 

On January 21, 2015, a majority of the Company’s stockholders approved a consolidation of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock, on a 10 for 1 basis, thereby decreasing the issued and outstanding share capital from 113,020,000 to 11,302,000. On March 11, 2015, the Company changed its name from Madison Explorations, Inc. to Madison Technologies Inc. and effected the stock consolidation. These financial statements give retroactive effect to both these changes.

On September 16, 2016, the Company entered into an exclusive distribution product license agreement with Tuffy Packs, LLC to distribute products into the United Kingdom and 43 other essentially European countries. The Company will be sellingSoled ballistic panels which are personal body armors, that conformsconform to the National Institute of Justice (NIJ) Level IIIA threat requirements. The Company’s plan of operations and sales strategy includeincluded online and social media marketing, as well as attending various tradeshows and conferences. As the Company failed to make specified payments as required, the agreement was amended to a non-exclusive basis.

 

EffectiveOn July 17, 2020, the Company entered into an acquisition agreement to acquire the Casa Zeta-Jones Brand License Agreement from Luxurie Legs, LLC of Delaware (“Luxurie”). Luxurie transferred all its rights, title and interest in the License Agreement to the Company in exchange for the Company’s newly issued preferred convertible Series A stock. Upon conversion, the stock could control up to 95% of the outstanding common shares. The agreement also required voting control, represented by newly issued shares of super voting preferred Series B stock.

On September 28, 2020, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement to acquire 51% interest of Posto Del Sole Inc., a jewelry designer company to further develop the Company’s existing brands and create new designer labels. The title and rights will be transferred when all the terms and conditions in the Securities Exchange Agreement are met. At December 31, 2016,2020, the Company dissolved its wholly owned subsidiary, Scout Resourcesshare exchange had not closed and advances made to Posto Del Sole Inc. (“Scout”) and assumed all the debt that Scout owed.were expensed.

 

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations for its next twelve months. Realization values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. At December 31, 2017,2020, the Company had not yet achieved profitable operations, had a working capital deficit $533,548, had accumulated losses of $478,110$1,484,442 since its inception and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business, all of which casts substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Note 2Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

a) Year end

 

The Company has elected a December 31st fiscal year end.

 

b) Cash and cash equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents. As at December 31, 2017,2020, the Company did not have any cash equivalents in 2017. (2016equivalents. (2019 – $nil).

 

c) Revenue Recognition

In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance on the recognition of Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The core principle of the guidance is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration which the company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve this core principle, the guidance provides a five-step analysis of transactions to determine when and how revenue is recognized. The guidance addresses several areas including transfer of control, contracts with multiple performance obligations, and costs to obtain and fulfill contracts. The guidance also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract.

The Company adopted the ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), using the modified retrospective method. Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2020 were not adjusted. The adoption of Topic 606 did not have a material impact to the Company’s financial statements. Revenue from contracts with customers is generated primarily from selling products online. The customer orders and pays for the products through an online portal. Once the payment goes through, a purchase order is generated and submitted to the supplier. When the supplier ships the products to the customer, revenue is then recognized when the performance obligation is completed.

 

The Company recognizes revenue when a contract is in place, goods or services are delivered to the purchaser and collectability is reasonably assured.

 

d) Stock-Based Compensation

The Company follows the guideline under FASB ASC Topic 718 “Compensation-Stock Compensation”for all stock based compensation plans, including employee stock options, restricted stock, employee stock purchase plans and stock appreciation rights. Stock compensation expenses are to be recorded using the fair value method. No stock options have been issued.

e) Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss)Loss per Share

 

The Company reports basic loss per share in accordance FASB ASC Topic 260, “Earnings per share”. Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share on the potential exercise of the equity-based financial instruments is not presented where anti-dilutive.

 

f) Comprehensive Income

In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 220 “Comprehensive Income,” comprehensive income consists of net income and other gains and losses affecting stockholder’s equity that are excluded from net income, such as unrealized gains and losses on investments available for sale, foreign currency translation gains and losses and minimum pension liability.

g)e) Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying disclosures. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions the Company may undertake in the future, actual results may ultimately differ from the estimates. Management believes such estimates to be reasonable.

 

h)f) Fair Value Measurements

 

The Company follows FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”,for all financial instruments and non-financial instruments accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis. This accounting standard establishes a single definition of fair value and a framework for measuring fair value, sets out a fair value hierarchy to be used to classify the source of information used in fair value measurement and expands disclosures about fair value measurements required under other accounting pronouncements. It does not change existing guidance as to whether or not an instrument is carried at fair value.pronouncements The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities, which are required to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which the Company would transact and the market-based risk measurements or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions and credit risk. The Company has adopted FASB ASC 825, “Financial Instruments”,which allows companies to choose to measure eligible financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not required to be measured at fair value.The Company has not elected the fair value option for any eligible financial instruments.

i) Financial Instruments and correctionThe carrying value of error in previously issued financial statements

Fair Value

Thethe Company’s financial instruments consisting ofincluding cash, accountaccounts payable and accrued liabilities, license fee payable, demand notes and interest payable and convertible notes payable and accrued interest and related party advances are carried at face which approximatesapproximate their fair value becausedue to the short maturities of their short-term nature.these financial instruments.

 

During the year, the Company changed the accounting policy by which it accounts for its convertible debt. Previously, the Company based its policy on the fact that the promissory notes have been issued without an interest component and, assuming the reason for investing is the pursuit of profit, the total value of these instruments had been allocated to the equity component as this is the only logical reason for investment. Promissory note issuances were included in additional paid-in capital and were amortized and charged to interest on an effective interest rate basis.

During the year, the Company corrected this policy and adopted FASB ASC Topic 470, “Debt with Conversions and Other Options,” which requires that convertible debt with no beneficial conversion feature be allocated in totality to debt and that no amount be allocated to equity. This change has been applied retroactively to the financial statements and the effect on the financial statements is described in Note 9. None of the Company’s convertible notes had a beneficial conversion feature.

Risks:

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist principally of cash. Management does not believe the Company is exposed to significant credit risk.

Management, as well, does not believe the Company is exposed to significant interest rate risks during the period resented in these financial statements.

The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the eventual outcome of the risks and uncertainties described above.

j)g) Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under an asset and liability approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. In estimating future tax consequences, all expected future events other than enactment of changes in the tax laws or rates are considered.

 

Due to the uncertainty regarding the Company’s future profitability, the future tax benefits of its losses have been fully reserved.

 

k) Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

Impairment losses on long-lived assets, such as mining claims, are recognized when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by such assets are less than their carrying value and, accordingly, all or a portion of such carrying value may not be recoverable. Impairment losses are then measured by comparing the fair value of assets to their carrying amounts.

Madison Technologies Inc.Form 10-K - 2017Page 24

l) Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions

The Company’s functional currency is US dollars. Foreign currency balances are translated into US dollars as follows:

Monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the period-end exchange rate. Non-monetary assets are translated at the rate of exchange in effect at their acquisition, unless such assets are carried at market or nominal value, in which case they are translated at the period-end exchange rate. Revenue and expense items are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. Foreign exchange gains and losses in the period are included in operations.

The functional currency of the now dissolved wholly owned subsidiary was Canadian dollars. The assets and liabilities arising from these operations were translated at current exchange rates and related revenues and expenses at the exchange rates in effect at the time the revenue or expense was incurred. Resulting translation adjustments, if material, were accumulated as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income in the statement of stockholders’ deficit.

m)h) Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets are non-monetary identifiable assets, controlled by the Company that will produce future economic benefits, based on reasonable and supportable assumptions about conditions that will exist over the life of the asset. An intangible asset that does not meet these attributes will be recognized as an expense when it is incurred. Intangible assets that do, are capitalized and initially measured at cost. Those with a determinable life will be amortized on a systematic basis over their future economic life. Those with a indefinite useful life shall not be amortized until its useful life is determined to be longer indefinite. An intangible assetsasset subject to amortization shall be periodically reviewed for impairment. A recoverability test will be performed and, if applicable, unscheduled amortization is considered.

n)i) Recent Accounting PronouncementsStandards

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes”. This new guidance includes several provisions to simplify the accounting for income taxes. The standard removes certain exceptions for recognizing deferred taxes for investments, performing intraperiod allocation, and calculating income taxes in interim periods. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of this standard is permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40), Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract”. This new guidance requires a customer in a cloud computing arrangement (i.e., hosting arrangement) that is a service contract to follow the internal-use software guidance in ASC 350-40 to determine which implementation costs to capitalize as assets or expense as incurred. Also, capitalized implementation costs related to a hosting arrangement that is a service contract will be amortized over the term of the hosting arrangement, beginning when the module or component of the hosting arrangement is ready for its intended use. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses”. The ASU sets forth a “current expected credit loss” (CECL) model which requires the Company to measure all expected credit losses for financial instruments held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable supportable forecasts. This replaces the existing incurred loss model and is applicable to the measurement of credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost and applies to some off-balance sheet credit exposures. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. Recently, the FASB issued the final ASU to delay adoption for smaller reporting companies to calendar year 2023. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of this ASU on its financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)” and subsequent amendments to the initial guidance: ASU 2018-10, ASU 2018-11, ASU 2018-20 and ASU 2019-01 (collectively, Topic 842). As the Company has no leases, this pronouncement did not affect the Company’s financial statements.

 

The Company adopts new pronouncements relating to generally accepted accounting principles applicable to the Company as they are issued, which may be in advance of their effective date. Management does not believe that any pronouncement not yet effective but recently issued would, if adopted, have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

In connection with the preparation of this annual report on Form 10-K, an evaluation was carried out by Madison’s management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of Madison’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”)) as of December 31, 2017.2020. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

 

Based on that evaluation, Madison’s management concluded, as of the end of the period covered by this report, that Madison’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in recording, processing, summarizing, and reporting information required to be disclosed, within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and that such information was accumulated or communicated to management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In particular, Madison has identified material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, as discussed below.

 

Management’s Report on Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

 

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as required by Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) Section 404 A. Madison’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of Madison’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of Madison’s financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

 

 pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of Madison’s assets;
   
 provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of the financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and the Board of Directors; and
   
 provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of Madison’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

Management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2017,2020, based on criteria established inInternal Control –Integrated Frameworkissued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). As a result of this assessment, management identified material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting.

 

A material weakness is a control deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of Madison’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

 

Madison Technologies Inc.Form 10-K - 20172020Page 3220

 

The matters involving internal controls and procedures that management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were: (1) lack of a functioning audit committee and lack of a majority of outside directors on Madison’s board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; (2) inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; (3) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements; and (4) ineffective controls over period end financial disclosure and reporting processes. The aforementioned material weaknesses were identified by Madison’s Chief Financial Officer in connection with the audit of its financial statements as of December 31, 20172020 and communicated the matters to management.

 

As a result of the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described above, management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2017,2020, Madison’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on the criteria inInternal Control – Integrated Frameworkissued by COSO.

 

Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth in items (2), (3) and (4) above did not have an effect on Madison’s financial results. However, management believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee and lack of a majority of outside directors on Madison’s board of directors caused and continues to cause an ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of the required internal controls over financial reporting.

 

Madison is committed to improving its financial organization. As part of this commitment and when funds are available, Madison will create a position to Madison to segregate duties consistent with control objectives and will increase its personnel resources and technical accounting expertise within the accounting function by: (i) appointing one or more outside directors to its board of directors who will also be appointed to the audit committee of Madison resulting in a fully functioning audit committee who will undertake the oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls over financial reporting; and (ii) preparing and implementing sufficient written policies and checklists that will set forth procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements.

 

Management believes that the appointment of one or more outside directors, who will also be appointed to a fully functioning audit committee, will remedy the lack of a functioning audit committee and a lack of a majority of outside directors on Madison’s Board. In addition, management believes that preparing and implementing sufficient written policies and checklists will remedy the following material weaknesses: (i) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements; and (ii) ineffective controls over period end financial close and reporting processes. Further, management believes that the hiring of additional personnel who have the technical expertise and knowledge will result proper segregation of duties and provide more checks and balances within the department. Additional personnel will also provide the cross training needed to support Madison if personnel turn-over issues within the department occur. This coupled with the appointment of additional outside directors will greatly decrease any control and procedure issues Madison may encounter in the future.

 

Management will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of Madison’s internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and are committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.

 

Madison’s independent auditors have not issued an attestation report on management’s assessment of Madison’s internal control over financial reporting. As a result, this annual report does not include an attestation report of Madison’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Madison was not required to have, nor has Madison, engaged its independent registered public accounting firm to perform an audit of internal control over financial reporting pursuant to the temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit Madison to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

 

Changes in Internal Controls

 

There were no changes in Madison’s internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended December 31, 2017,2020, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Madison’s internal control over financial reporting.

(c) Director independence

 

Madison’s board of directors currently consists of Joseph Gallo.Phillip Falcone, Henry Turner, Warren Zenna and Jeffrey Canouse. Pursuant to Item 407(a)(1)(ii) of Regulation S-K of the Securities Act, Madison’s board of directors has adopted the definition of “independent director” as set forth in Rule 4200(a)(15) of the NASDAQ Manual. In summary, an “independent director” means a person other than an executive officer or employee of Madison or any other individual having a relationship which, in the opinion of Madison’s board of directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director, and includes any director who accepted any compensation from Madison in excess of $200,000 during any period of 12 consecutive months with the three past fiscal years. Also, the ownership of Madison’s stock will not preclude a director from being independent.

 

In applying this definition, Madison’s board of directors has determined that Mr. Gallo does not qualify as an “independent director” pursuant to Rule 4200(a)(15) of the NASDAQ Manual.
