Corporate History

DSG Global Inc. (formerly Boreal Productions Inc.) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on September 24, 2007. The Company was initially formed to option and package rights for feature film and television projects.

Upon incorporation we received our initial funding of $9,000 through the sale of common stock to our then sole officer and director, who purchased 3,000,000 pre-reverse split shares of common stock at $0.003 per share and $45,000 from the sale of 3,000,000 pre-reverse split shares of common stock issued to 30 un-affiliated investors at $0.015 per share. On June 11, 2008, we effected a five for one forward stock split of our authorized and issued and outstanding common stock. As a result, our authorized capital increased from 75,000,000 to 375,000,000 pre-reverse split shares of common stock and our outstanding share capital increased from 6,000,000 shares of pre-reverse split common stock to 30,000,000 shares of pre-reverse split common stock.

On April 13, 2015, we entered into a share exchange agreement with Vantage Tag Systems Inc. (“VTS”) (formerly DSG Tag Systems Inc.) and the shareholders of VTS who become parties to the share exchange agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the share exchange agreement, we agreed to acquire not less than 75% and up to 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of VTS’s common stock in exchange for the issuance by our company of up to 20,000,000 pre-reverse split shares of our common stock to the shareholders of VTS on the basis of one of our pre-reverse split common shares for 5.4935 common shares of VTS.

Previously, in anticipation of the share exchange agreement with VTS, we undertook to change our name and effect a reverse stock split of our authorized and issued common stock. Accordingly, on January 19, 2015, our board of directors approved an agreement and plan of merger to merge with our wholly owned subsidiary DSG Global Inc., a Nevada corporation, to effect a name change from Boreal Productions Inc. to DSG Global Inc. Our company remains the surviving company. DSG Global Inc. was formed solely for the change of name.

Also, on January 19, 2015, our company’s board of directors approved a resolution to effect a reverse stock split of our authorized and issued and outstanding shares of common stock on a three (3) old for one (1) new basis. Upon effect of the reverse split, our authorized capital will decrease from 375,000,000 pre-reverse split shares of common stock to 125,000,000 pre-reverse split shares of common stock and correspondingly, our issued and outstanding shares of common stock will decrease from 30,000,000 to 10,000,000 pre-reverse split shares of common stock, all with a par value of $0.001.

Articles of Merger to effect the merger and change of name and a Certificate of Change to affect the reverse stock split were filed with the Nevada Secretary of State on January 22, 2015, with an effective date of February 2, 2015. The name change and forward split were reviewed by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) were approved for filing with an effective date of February 23, 2015.

The name change became effective with the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board and OTC Markets quotation system at the opening of trading on February 23, 2015 under the symbol “BRPOD”. Effective March 19, 2015 our stock symbol changed to “DSGT”. Our new CUSIP number following the symbol change is 23340C104. The first trade of our common shares occurred on March 25, 2015.

On May 6, 2015, we completed the acquisition of approximately 75% (82,435,748 common shares) of the issued and outstanding common shares of DSG TAG Systems as contemplated by the share exchange agreement by issuing 15,185,875 shares of our common stock to shareholders of DSG TAG Systems who became parties to the agreement. In addition, concurrent with the closing of the share exchange agreement, we issued an additional 179,823 shares of our common stock to Westergaard Holdings Ltd. in partial settlement of accrued interest on outstanding indebtedness of DSG TAG Systems.

Following the initial closing of the share exchange agreement and through October 22, 2015, we acquired an additional 101,200 shares of common stock of DSG TAG from shareholders who became parties to the share exchange agreement and issued to these shareholders an aggregate of 18,422 pre-reverse split shares of our common stock. Following completion of these additional purchases, DSG Global Inc. owns 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of DSG TAG.

The reverse acquisition was accounted for as a recapitalization effected by a share exchange, wherein DSG TAG Systems is considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. The assets and liabilities of the acquired entity have been brought forward at their book value and no goodwill has been recognized. We adopted the business and operations of DSG TAG Systems upon the closing of the share exchange agreement.

Subsequent to the closing of the share exchange agreement with DSG TAG, we adopted the business and operations of DSG TAG.

DSG TAG was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on April 17, 2008 and extra provincially registered in British Columbia, Canada in 2008. In March 2011, DSG TAG formed DSG Tag Systems International, Ltd. in the United Kingdom (“DSG UK”). DSG UK is a wholly owned subsidiary of DSG TAG.

On March 26, 2019, we effected a reverse stock split of our authorized and issued and outstanding shares of common stock on a four thousand (4,000) for one (1) basis. Upon effect of the reverse split, our authorized capital decreased from 3,000,000,000 pre-reverse split shares of common stock to 750,000 shares of common stock and correspondingly, our issued and outstanding shares of common stock decreased from 2,761,333,254 pre-reverse split to 690,403 shares of common stock, all with a par value of $0.001. Our outstanding shares of Preferred Stock remain unchanged. This Form 10-K gives retroactive effect to such reverse stock split named above and all share and per share amounts have been adjusted accordingly, unless otherwise noted.

Subsequent to the closing of the share exchange agreement with DSG Tag Systems, Inc. (“DSG TAG”), we adopted the business and operations of DSG TAG. DSG TAG is now known as Vantage Tag Systems, Inc. (“VTS”).

Recent Business Developments

Fleet Management and Golf Division

We have developed the TAG suite of products that we believe is the first completely modular fleet management solution for the golf industry. The TAG suite of products is currently sold and installed around the world in golf facilities, and in commercial settings, through a network of established distributors and in partnership with some of the most notable brands in fleet and equipment manufacture.

DSG stands for “Digital Security Guard”, which is our primary value statement giving fleet operator’s new capabilities to track and control their vehicles. We have developed a proprietary combination of hardware and software that is marketed around the world as the TAG system. We have primarily focused on the golf industry where the TAG system is deployed to help golf course operators manage their fleet of golf carts, turf equipment, and utility vehicles. We are a leader in the category of fleet management in the golf industry and were awarded “Best Technology of the Year” in 2010 by Boardroom magazine, a publication of the National Golf Course Owners Association. To date the TAG system is installed on over 8,000 vehicles and has been used to monitor over 6,000,000 rounds of golf.

The TAG system fills a void in the marketplace by offering a modular structure that allows the customer to customize their system to meet desired functionality and budget constraints. In addition to the core TAG system vehicle control functionality, which can operate independently, we offer two golfer information display systems — the alphanumeric INFINITY 7”10” and high-definition INFINITY XL 12” — providing the operator with two display options which is unique in the industry.

The primary market for our TAG system is the 40,000 golf operations worldwide. While the golf industry remains the primary focus of our sales and marketing efforts, we have completed several successful pilots of the TAG system in other markets such as agriculture and commercial fleet operations. With appropriate resources, we intend to expand our sales and marketing efforts into these new markets.

We have a direct sales force in North America, which comprises the most significant portion of the golf fleet market and have developed key relationships with distributors and golf equipment manufacturers such as E-Z-GO, Yamaha and Ransomes Jacobsen to help drive sales for the North American and worldwide markets.

In order to successfully deliver products, increase sales, and maintain customer satisfaction, we need to have a reliable supplier of our hardware units and components at competitive prices. Presently, we source our INFINITY XL 12” units from one supplier in China and our TAG units from one supplier in the United Kingdom. We have recently established a new relationship with a supplier for our INFINITY XL 12” units in China to provide us with higher quality, newer technology at competitive pricing. We are also exploring the opportunity of a partnership with a US manufacturer.

PACER Golf Cart Line

In 2020, DSG/Vantage Tag was working with manufacturers in China to develop and launch our planned single rider “PACER” golf carts for a 2021 launch. After testing several prototypes and consulting with industry leaders and partners, we have delayed launch of the PACER in order to undertake PACER manufacturing in North America, under the close supervision of our designers and marketing partners, and in proximity to our largest anticipated customer base. We believe this decision will allow us to produce an industry-leading product, maintain quality control, reduce fulfillment delays and capitalize on manufacturing synergies between our divisions. We anticipate that we will secure PACER manufacturing capacity within 90 days based on general availability of commercial space and labor. We continue to proceed with PACER sales development and during this transition.

Electric Vehicle Division

On October 2, 2019, we entered into an exclusive cooperation agreement dated September 17, 2019 with Zhejiang Jonway Group Co., Ltd. (“Jonway Group”), a leading manufacturer of electric vehicles in China. Pursuant to the Agreement, we have received the exclusive right to purchase, homologate, and distribute Jonway Group’s range of electric low speed vehicles in the Americas (including the United States, Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean) for a term of 10 years. The distribution rights are subject to the inspection and approval of eligible vehicles by the Company.

Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company was to place an initial order of 17 sample vehicles by January 30, 2020. The sample vehicles are for homologation purposes and subject to inspection and approval by the Company. The initial order was delayed by mutual agreement due to manufacturing and shipping delays resulting from COVID-19. However, as at the date of this Annual Report, the initial order of 17 vehicles has been placed and fulfilled. We have since approved and are currently homologating the vehicles for conformance with North America road & safety standards. The written agreement between Jonway Group and the Company does not specify what percentage of each vehicle purchase price is payable upon order placement. Currently, the parties have agreed to a 30% payment upon order placement with the balance payable upon shipping.

On February 4, 2020, we announced the establishment of our automotive subsidiary, Imperium Motor Company®, and a planned Electric Vehicle (EV) Experience Centre in California. Imperium Motor Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on September 10, 2020.

On August 21, 2020, we announced the opening of our Electric Vehicle Experience and Training Center located in Fairfield, California, where we plan to offer a range of electric vehicles at the EV Vehicle Experience Centre and to provide dealer support, training, and education.

On October 5, 2020, through Imperium Motor Corp., we entered into a Memorandum of Understanding dated September 10, 2020 with Skywell Shenzen Vehicles Co. Ltd. aka Skywell New Energy Automobile Group Co., Ltd. (“Skywell”), a leading manufacturer of electric vehicles in China. Pursuant to the Memorandum of Understanding, Imperium has received the exclusive right, subject to placement of an initial vehicle order and corresponding payment to Skywell, to purchase, homologate, and distribute Skywell’s range of ET5 electric sport utility vehicles in North America and the Caribbean. The Memorandum of Understanding, while stated to be non-binding, provides for the conclusion of a definitive agreement by the parties following the placement of an initial vehicle order by the Company. The definitive agreement was to have a minimum term of 3 years, and will renew automatically for successive 3-year terms, subject to the right of each party to terminate the agreement by giving 30 days notice prior to renewal.

Effective February 9, 2021, we entered into a definitive OEM Cooperation Agreement with Skywell dated February 5, 2021, which agreement modifies and replaces the Memorandum of Understanding. Pursuant to the OEM Cooperation Agreement, Skywell has granted to the Company the exclusive right to distribute Skywell’s electric passenger cars, trucks (including but not limited to the ET5 sport utility vehicle), buses and spare parts in the United States and Canada for a term of 5 years. In order to maintain the distributions rights accorded by the agreement, the Company must purchase and deliver 1,000 units within the first year of the term, 2,000 units in the second year, 3,000 units in the third year, 4,000 units in the fourth year, and 5,000 units in the fifth and final year of the term. Skywell may terminate the agreement in its distribution with 30 days’ notice if the Company fails to satisfy sales quotas. Product price, terms of payment and logistical matters are subject to the ongoing approval and agreement of the parties from time to time.

Effective February 15, 2021, we entered into a Cooperation Agreement with Rumble Motors, a manufacturer and distributor of electric bikes and other vehicles. Pursuant to the Cooperation Agreement, Rumble has granted to the Company the exclusive right to distribute the Rumble Rover, Rumble Air, and other electric bikes in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, the United States, Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean for a term of 5 years. The Rumble vehicles remain subject to the Company’s testing, approval, and homologation in the respective territories.

Electric Vehicle Market Overview

United States

The number of electric vehicles (EVs) on U.S. roads is projected to reach 18.7 million in 2030, up from 1 million at the end of 2018. This is about 7% of the 259 million vehicles (cars and light trucks) expected to be on U.S. roads in 2030. EV sales in the United States were up 79% in 2018 while global EV sales grew 64% in the same year.

Canada

10

Canada

Sales for 2018 were over 150% higher than 2017 and saw more EVs sold across the country in 2018 than in the previous three years combined. Nearly 3% of all new vehicles are electric, a higher rate than in the United States.

Mexico

EV sales in Latin America increased by 90% in 2018 due to growing demand in Mexico, Colombia and Costa Rica. While the LatAm EV market is far smaller than East Asia, Europe and North America, accounting for less than 1% of global EV sales in 2018, it is starting to grow thanks to a handful of incentives and targets. Mexico and Costa Rica, for example, exempt EVs from numerous taxes while Colombia has an ambitious target of 600,000 EVs on its roads by 2030.

Companies are also increasing their activity. BYD Co. now sells electric buses across the region and Tesla Inc. recently launched its best-selling Model 3 in Mexico.

Caribbean

While most Caribbean islands are rapidly modernizing their electric grids, the modernization of transportation systems has lagged. Is change in the air? In November, the government of Bermuda signed a memorandum of understanding with the Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI), embracing a plan to fully transition the island’s transportation sector to EVs.

The case for EVs is strong in Bermuda, as it is across the Caribbean. With predominantly flat terrain and driving distances that are short enough to eliminate “range anxiety,” EVs make perfect sense.

Caribbean nations are uniquely positioned to reap major benefits from EVs with the abundance of sunshine that could provide renewable solar power on a significant scale. EV adoption would also reduce reliance on fuel imports, which creates extreme economic vulnerability linked to oil price fluctuations as well as contribute to disaster resilience through energy storage—EV batteries can serve as backup power sources during hurricanes.

Competition in the EV Market

The EV market is highly competitive and evolving rapidly, with new manufacturers and distributors consistently entering the industry to satisfy actual and expected growth in the demand for competitively priced vehicles. As a result, we expect that we will experience significant competition from new and established manufacturers, marketers and distributors. These include niche manufacturers of specialty electric vehicles, and large established manufacturers of automobiles. These, including manufacturers of EVs such as the Tesla Model S, the Chevrolet Volt and the Nissan Leaf.

Most of our current and potential competitors have significantly greater financial, technical, manufacturing, marketing and other resources than we do and may be able to devote greater resources to the design, development, manufacturing, distribution, promotion, sale and support of their products. Virtually all of our competitors have more extensive customer bases and broader customer and industry relationships than we do. In addition, almost all of these companies have longer operating histories and greater name recognition than we do. Our competitors may be in a stronger position to respond quickly to new technologies and may be able to design, develop, market and sell their products more effectively.

DSG Technologies and Products—Fleet Management and Golf Division

We have developed the TAG suite of products that we believe is the first completely modular fleet management solution for the golf industry. The TAG suite of products is currently sold and installed around the world in golf facilities and as commercial applications through a network of established distributors and partnerships with some of the most notable brands in fleet and equipment manufacture.

VTS is giving fleet operator’s new capabilities to track and control their vehicles through the new INFINITY XL system and the new 3G-4G TAG. We have developed in-house a proprietary combination of hardware and software that is marketed around the world as the INFINITY TAG system. We have primarily focused on the golf industry where the TAG system is deployed to help golf course operators manage their fleet of golf carts, turf equipment, and utility vehicles. We are a leader in the category of fleet management in the golf industry and were awarded “Best Technology of the Year” in 2010 by Boardroom magazine, a publication of the National Golf Course Owners Association. To date, the TAG system is installed on vehicles around the world and has been used to monitor millions of rounds of golf.

The TAG system fills a void in the marketplace by offering a modular structure that allows the customer to customize their system to meet desired functionality and budget constraints. In addition to the core TAG system vehicle control functionality, which can operate independently, we offer 3 information display systems to the golf courses management and golfer — the alphanumeric TEXT and high definition 12” INFINITY XL, 10” INFINITY RM and 7”10” INFINITY DM— providing the operator with three display options which is unique in the industry. VTS also offers inhouse financing thru purchase or lease.

The primary market for our TAG system is the golf industry, with over 40,000 golf operations worldwide. While the golf industry remains the primary focus of our sales and marketing efforts, we have completed several successful pilots of the TAG system in other markets such as agriculture and commercial fleet operations. With appropriate resources, we intend to expand our sales and marketing efforts into these new markets.

We are expanding our sales force in North America, which comprises the most significant portion of the golf fleet market and have developed key relationships with privately owned distributors and golf equipment manufacturers such as E-Z-GO, Yamaha and Ransomes Jacobsen to help drive sales through-out Europe, Asia, UK and many other markets worldwide Including our most recent move to New Zealand and Australia.

Our most recent Vantage product that is used to increaserange includes the paceVantage brand Fleet golf cart, and retail golf carts for individual users under the Vantage and Shelby brands. Shelby Golf cart products represent a unique offering within the golf and low speed vehicle industry, emphasizing customization and user brand association. Shelby products will be sold via DSG and a network of play onlicensed Shelby dealers under the course by up to 90 minutes per round is the RAPTOR. Our 3- wheel single rider cart allows the course to revenue share with VTSAC Golf Carts outlet brand. Those dealers will also act as the RAPTOR is put on the course free of chargeservice agents for both Shelby products and then allows the course to revenue share with VTS along the way. Each seat is rented to the customers for a minimum of $25 per round.other DSG products in their locality.

16

In order to successfully deliver products, increase sales, and maintain customer satisfaction, we need to have a reliable supplier of our hardware units and components at competitive prices. Presently, we source our TAG and INFINITY fleet from a North American Fortune 200 company in North America who haswith manufacturing in China and our RAPTORS from a supplier operating in the United Kingdom and Asia. This new relationship that has been established provides us with higher quality, newer technology at a competitive pricing.price.

In addition, VTS recently engaged with a telecommunications provider to provide new technology in hardware and wireless access through-out the world therefor allowing VTS to substantially reduce cellular cost.

Technology Overview

DSG produces a “modular” suite of products to provide fleet management solution for any vehicle required for a golf operation and provides two golfer information display options to meet the operators budget requirements. DSG believes that it is currently the only company in the golf fleet management industry with these capabilities.

The VTS TAG System is designed from the ground up to be a golf/turf vehicle fleet management system. Its main function is addressing the golf course operator needs. While employing same core technology (cellular wireless and GPS) as traditional commercial vehicle fleet management systems, DSG has created patent pending solutions to adapt it to the very specific requirements of the golf environment. Compared to mainstream fleet tracking products, DSG collects 10 to 50 times more data points per MB (megabyte) of cellular data due to its proprietary data collection and compression algorithms. Also, the relative positioning accuracy is improved by almost one order of magnitude by the use of application-specific geo-data validation and correction methods.

DSG’s proprietary methods make it possible to offer a solution suitable for use on golf courses at a price low enough to be affordable in the industry. Every system component incorporates state-of-the-art technology (server, mobile trackers, display). In developing its products VTS TAG Systems has adopted an application-oriented approach placing the most emphasis (and research & development) on server and end-user software by taking advantage of the commodity level reached by mainstream technologies such as Global Positioning (GPS) and M2M (Machine to Machine) Cellular Data in the wider context of Commercial Fleet Management.

DSG leveraged the existence of an abundance of very cost-effective telematics solutions by selecting an “off-the-shelf” hardware platform that meets all the main performance and environmental requirements for operation in the harsh, outdoor golf course environment. While removing all risk and cost associated with developing a proprietary hardware platform, DSG has maintained the unique nature of its hardware solution by developing a set of proprietary adapters and interfaces specifically for the golf application.

DSG has secured an exclusive supply agreement with the third-party hardware manufacturers for the vertical of golf industry. Additionally, DSG owns the design of all proprietary adapters and interfaces. This removes the risk of a potential competitor utilizing the same hardware platform. Competitors could attempt to reverse engineer or copycat the TAG technology and equipment. This risk factor is mitigated by the fact that our product does not rely on a particular technology or hardware platform to be successful but on a very specific vertical software application that is far more difficult to copy (and respectively easier to protect).

17

The application software contains patent features implemented in every core component of the system. The TAG device runs DSG proprietary firmware incorporating unique data collection and compression algorithms. The web server software which powers the end-user application is also proprietary and incorporates the industry knowledge accumulated through the over 70 years of collective experience of the DSG team.

This approach has given the product line a high level of endurance against technology obsolescence. At any point in time, if a hardware component is discontinued or a better/less expensive hardware platform becomes available, the software application can be easily adapted to operate on the new platform or with the new component. The company benefits from the constant increase of performance and cost reduction of mainstream hardware technology without any additional cost.

The web-based Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model used by VTS TAG System is optimal for low operating and support costs and rapid-cycle release for software updates. It is also a major factor in eliminating or substantially reducing the need for any end-user premises equipment. Customers have access to the service through any internet connected computer or mobile device, there is no need for a local wireless network on the facility and installation time and cost are minimal.

DSG is positioned to take advantage of mainstream technology and utilize “best of breed” hardware platforms to create new generations of products. Our software is designed to be “portable” to future new platforms with better GPS and wireless technology in order to maintain the Company competitive edge.

All new product development effort of DSG is following the same model: select the best of breed third-party hardware platform, design and produce custom proprietary accessories while focusing the bulk of the development efforts on vertical software application to address a very specific set of end-customer needs.

The latest addition to the TAG family of products, the TAG INFINITY is a perfect example of this development philosophy in action: the main component is a last-generation Android tablet PC wrapped in a custom designed outdoor enclosure containing the power supply and interface components required for the golf environment. The software application is taking advantage of all the advanced high-resolution graphics, touch user interface and computing power of the Android OS delivering a vastly superior user experience compared to competitive systems. The time to market for this product was 30% of how long it took to develop and launch this type of products in the past.

The TAG Control Unit

The company’s flagship product is the TAG Control unit. The TAG can operate as a “stand alone” unit or with one of two displays; the INFINITY 7”10” alphanumeric display or the INFINITY high definition “touch activated” screen. The TAG is GPS enabled and communicates with the TAG software using cellular GSM networks. Utilizing the cellular networks rather than erecting a local Wi-Fi network assures carrier grade uptime, and vehicle tracking “off- property”. GSM is the de facto global standard for mobile communications.

The TAG unit itself is discreetly installed usually in the nose of the vehicle to give the GPS clear line of site. It is then connected to the vehicle battery and ignition. The property is then mapped using the latest satellite imagery that is graphically enhanced and loaded into the TAG System as a map.

Once installed the vehicle owner utilizes the TAG software to locate the vehicle in real time using any computer, smartphone, or tablet that has an internet connection and perform various management operations.

The operator can use the geo-fencing capabilities to create “zones” on the property where they can control the vehicles behavior such as shutting down a vehicle that is entering a sensitive or dangerous area. The TAG System also monitors the strength of the vehicle’s battery helping to prevent sending out vehicles undercharged batteries which can be an inconvenience for the course and negatively impact the golfer experience.

Features and Benefits:

Internal battery utilizing Smart Power technology which charges the battery only when the vehicle is running (gas) or being charged (electric)

TAG TURF/ECO TAG

The TAG Turf and the new ECO TAG were developed to give course operators the same back end management features for their turf equipment and utility vehicles. Turf equipment is expensive, and a single piece can run over $100,000 and represents a large portion of a golf course operating budget. The TAG Turf and ECO TAG have comprehensive reporting that the operator can utilize to implement programs that can increase efficiencies, reduce labor costs, help lower idle times, provide fuel consumption and equipment performance, provide historical data on cutting patterns, and reduce pollution from emissions by monitoring idle times. Since the golf course needs to be maintained regardless of volume these cost saving measures directly impact the operator’s bottom line.

Revenue Model

DSG derives revenue from four different sources.

Systems Sales Revenue, which consists of the sales price paid by those customers who purchase our TAG system hardware lease our TAG system hardware.

Monthly Service Fees are paid by all customers for the wireless data fee charges required to operate the GPS tracking on the TAG systems.

Monthly Rental Fees are paid by those customers that rent the TAG system hardware. The amount of a customer’s monthly payment varies based on the type of equipment rented (a TAG, a TAG and INFINITY 7”10”, or a TAG and INFINITY XL 12”).

Golf Cart Sales Revenue, which consist of the sales price paid by the customers who purchase our Vantage and licensed Shelby golf carts.

Programmatic Advertising Revenue is a new source of revenue that we believe has the potential to be strategic for us in the future. We are in the process of implementing and designing software to provide advertising and other media functionality on our INFINITY.

We recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. In instances where final acceptance of the product is specified by the customer, revenue is deferred until all acceptance criteria have been met. We accrue for warranty costs, sales returns, and other allowances based on its historical experience.

Our revenue recognition policies are discussed in more detail under “Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8 of this Form 10-K.

Markets

Sales and Marketing Plan

The market for the TAG System is the worldwide golf cart and Turf equipment fleets. There are 40,000 golf courses around the world with North America being the largest individual market with 20,000. This represents over 3,000,000 vehicles. The golf market has five distinct types of operations. Municipal, Private Country Clubs, Destination Resorts, Public Commercial, Military and University affiliated. VTS has deployed and has case studies developed TAG systems in each of these categories.

Our marketing strategy is focused on building brand awareness, generating quality leads, and providing excellent customer service.

North America Sales

Since the largest market is North America the Company employs a direct sales team and sales agents that provide full sales coverage. Our sales agents are experienced golf industry professionals who maintain established relationships with the golf industry and carry multiple golf lines. Our sales objective is to offer our existing and prospective customers a dedicated, knowledgeable, and outstanding customer service team.

In addition, our team is dedicated to existing accounts that focus on up-selling and cross-selling additional products to our current customer base, securing renewal agreements, and providing excellent customer service. The current regions are:

Western Canada
Central Canada
Eastern Canada
Northeast USA
Western USA
Southeastern USA
Midwest USA

International Sales

DSG focuses on select global golf markets that offer significant volume opportunities and that value the benefits that our products deliver.

We utilize strategic distributor partnerships in each targeted region/country to sell, install and service our products. Distributors are selected based on market strength, market share, technical and selling capability, and overall reputation. We believe that DSG solutions appeal to all distributors because they are universal and fit any make or model of vehicle. We maintain and leverage our strong relationship with Yamaha, E-Z-GO and Ransomes Jacobsen (sister company to E-Z-GO) in developing our distributor network around the world. Today, many of our distributor partners are the leading distributors for E-Z-GO and RJ and hold a dominant position in their respective markets. While they are Yamaha or E-Z-GO distributors, most sell DSG products to all courses regardless of their choice of golf car as a value add to their customers and to generate additional revenue. We complement this distributor base with independent distributors as needed to ensure we have sufficient coverage in critical markets.

Currently DSG is focused on expanding in Europe, Asia and South Africa. The Company plans to expand next into Australia, New Zealand and Latin America.

Management Companies

Many golf facilities are managed by management companies. The portfolios of these companies vary from a few to hundreds of golf courses. Troon®, the world’s largest player in golf course management, has over 200 courses under management. The management companies provide everything from branding, staffing, management systems, marketing, and procurement. DSG is currently providing products and services to Troon, OB Sports, Kemper Sports, Trump, Marriott Golf, Blue Green, Crown Golf, American Golf, Billy Casper, Club Corp, and Club Link.

DSG has been successful in completing installations and developing relationships with several of the key players who control a substantial number of courses. DSG will continue to implement system developments that are driven by the needs of these management companies such as combined reporting, multiple course access through a centralized dashboard. This development will become a competitive advantage for DSG in the management company market.

DSG has dedicated a team to create specific collateral for this market and has assigned a senior executive to have direct responsibility to manage these relationships.

28

Competition

We compete with a number of established producers and distributors of vehicle fleet management systems. Our competitors include producers of golf specific applications, such as GPS Industries, LLC., one of the leading suppliers of golf cart fleet management systems, as well as producers of non-golf specific utility vehicle fleet management systems, such as Toro. Many of our competitors have longer operating histories, better brand recognition and greater financial resources than we do. In order for us to successfully compete in our industry we must:

demonstrate our products’ competitive advantages;
develop a comprehensive marketing system; and
increase our financial resources.

However, there can be no assurance that even if we do these things, we will be able to compete effectively with the other companies in our industry.

We believe that we will be able to compete effectively in our industry because of the versatility, reliability, and relative affordability of our products when compared to those of our competitors. We will attempt to build awareness of our competitive advantages among existing and potential customers through trade shows, sales visits and demonstrations, online marketing, and positive word of mouth advertising.

However, as we are a newly established company relative to our competitors, we face the same problems as other new companies starting up in an industry, such as limited access to capital. Our competitors may be substantially larger and better funded than us, and have significantly longer histories of research, operation and development than us. In addition, they may be able to provide more competitive products than we can and generally be able to respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in legislation and regulations relating to the industry. Additionally, our competitors may devote greater resources to the development, promotion and sale of their products or services than we do. Increased competition could also result in loss of key personnel, reduced margins or loss of market share, any of which could harm our business.

Our primary competitor in the field of golf course fleet management is GPS Industries, a company that was founded in 1996 by our sole officer, founder and one of our directors, Mr. Bob Silzer. GPS Industries is currently the largest player in the marketplace with an installed base of approximately 750 golf courses worldwide. GPS Industries was consolidated by various mergers and acquisitions with a diversity of hardware platforms and application software. Since 2009, when GPS Industries has introduced their latest product offering called the Visage, in an exclusive partnership with Club Car, their strategy has been to target mostly their existing customers and motivate them into replacing their existing, older GPS system, with the Visage system.

GPS Industries is leveraging very heavily their partnership with Club Car, which is one of the three largest golf cart manufacturers in the world and at times is benefiting from golf operators’ preference for Club Car and their vehicles when they select their management system.

Market Mix

Since the introduction of the DSG product line, we have shown golf course operators that they have now access to a budget-friendly fleet management tool that works not only on golf carts but also with all other vehicles used on the golf course such as turf maintenance, shuttles, and other utility vehicles.

Marketing studies have identified that half of the golf course operators only need a fleet management system and only 15% need a high-end GPS golf system. This illustrates the strong competitive advantage that VTS TAG Systems has versus GPS Industries since their product can only address the needs of a relatively small fraction of the marketplace.

Consequently, GPS Industries’ installed base has steadily declined since most of their new product installations have replaced older product for existing customers and some customers have opted for a lower budget system and switched over to VTS TAG Systems.

29

Marketing Activities

The Company has a multi-layered approach marketing the TAG suite of products. One of the foundations of this plan is attending industry trade shows which are well attended by golf operators. The two largest shows are the PGA Merchandise Show and the Golf Industry Show which are held in Florida at the end of January. The Company also attends a number of regional shows around North America. International events are attended by our distributors and partners.

The second layer of marketing is memberships in key organizations such as the National Golf Course Owners Association, Golf Course Superintendents Association, and Club Managers Association of America. These are very influential in the industry and have marketing channels such as publications, email blasts, and web-based marketing. The Company also markets directly to course operators through email, surveys direct mail programs.

Lead Generation

One of the primary sources of lead generation is through the Company’s strategic partnerships with E-Z-GO, Yamaha, and Ransomes Jacobson. These relationships provide the Company with a great deal of market intelligence. The sales forces of the partners work in tandem with the DSG sales team by passing on the leads, creating joint proposals, and distributing TAG sales material. The Company has also created co-branded materials for specific value items of interest to operators such as Pace of Play solutions. DSG sale s and marketing staff attend partner sales events to conduct training and discuss marketing strategies.

The Company is in the process of testing an internal telemarketing program in several key markets to gauge whether this particular channel warrants larger scale implementation.

Competitive Advantages

Pricing

One of the “heroes” of the TAG System is providing the course operator a range of modular fleet management options that are very competitively priced. Pricing options range from the TURF, TAG, Infinity 7”10”, and Infinity XL 12” System, giving the customer a wide range of pricing options.

Functional advantages

DSG has the distinctive advantage of being able to offer a true fleet management system, encompassing all the vehicles on the golf course, not just the golf carts. Due to the modular nature of the system, customers have now the option to configure their system’s configuration to match exactly their needs and their budget.

Product advantages

DSG products are the robust, reliable, and user-friendly systems in the world. DSG is the only company currently providing systems that are waterproof with internal batteries to ensure our partners retain the full golf cart manufacturer’s warranty.

Operational Plan

Our Operations Department’s main functions are outlined below:

Product Supply Chain Management

Product procurement, lead-time management
Inventory Control

Customer Service

Training
Troubleshooting & Support
Hardware Repairs

Installations

Content & graphics procurement
System configurations
Shipping and Installation

Infrastructure Management

Communication Servers Management
Cellular Data Carriers
Service and administration tools

Product Supply Chain

In order to maintain high product quality and control, as well as benefiting from cost savings,and to optimize production costs, the Company is currently procuring all main hardware components offshore. Final assembly is locally performed in order to ensure product quality. Other mainkey components are also procured directly from local manufacturers or from local suppliers that outsource components office in order to keep the price as low as possible.

The Company is requesting the suppliers to perform a complete set of quality testing and minimum 24 hours’ burn-in before the product is delivered. The local hardware assembler and components supplier offers a 12-month warranty. The main hardware components offshore supplier offers a warranty plan of 15 months from the date the product is shipped. With an extended 90 days beyond the current warranty, such repair service would be paid by the supplier except for component replacement costs, which would be paid by DSG.

Another important activity related to the management of the product supply chain is working closely with the suppliers and ensuring that we have alternate sources for the main components and identify well in advance any components that may go “end-of-life” and find suitable replacements before product shortages may occur.

Inventory Control

The Company has implemented strict inventory management procedures that govern the inbound flow of products from suppliers, the outgoing flow to customers as well as the internal movement of inventory between warehouses (Canada, US and UK). There are also procedures in place to control the flow of equipment returning from customers for repairs and their replacements.

31

Installation

The Company is utilizing a small number of its own field engineers, geographically positioned to be in close proximity of areas with high concentrations of current and future customers. Occasionally, when new installations exceed the internal capacity, the company employs a number of external contractors, on a project-by-project basis. Each contractor has been trained extensively to perform product installations and the Company has created an extensive collection of Installation Manuals for all products and vehicle types.

The product was designed with ease of installation as one of its features. Additionally, the installation process includes a pre-shipping configuration process that prepares each device with all the settings and graphics content (if applicable) required for the specific location it will be deployed. This makes the installation process a lot simpler and less time consuming in the field which reduces costs (accommodations, food, travel) for internal staff as well as external contractor cost (less billable time).

Another benefit of the simplified installation procedure is increased scalability in anticipation of increased number of installs in the future by reducing the skill level and training time requirements for additional contractors.

Customer Service

The Company has deployed its Customer Service staff strategically, so it has at least one service representative active during business hours in North America, Europe and South Africa.

The Company is handling Customer Service directly in North America and UK, offering telephone and on-line support to end-customers. In other international markets, the first-line customer service is handled by local distributor’s staff while DSG is supplying training and more advanced support to the distributors.

For the management of the customer service activities, the Company is utilizing SalesForce.com CRM system which allows creating, updating, closing and escalation of service cases, including the issuance of RMA (Return Material Authorization) numbers for defective equipment. Using SalesForce.com also allows generation of management reports for service issues, customer satisfaction, and equipment failures in order to quickly identify trends, problem accounts or systemic issues.

In addition, DSG began offering the DSG Par 72 Service & Support Plan to guarantee service and support to client courses in the golf business, during fiscal 2016. This program for client courses which guarantees service and support programs within 24 hours of a problem arising.

Product Development and Engineering

The Company employs a team of software engineers in house to develop and maintain the main components of the server software and firmware.

All product development is derived from business needs assessment and customer requests.

The Product Manager is reviewing periodically the list of feature requests with the Sales, establishes priorities and updates the Product Roadmap.

The software engineers are also responsible for developing specialized tools and systems utilized increase efficiency in the operation of the Company. These projects include functionality such as: automated system monitoring, automatic service alerts, improved remote troubleshooting tools, cellular data monitoring and reporting. All these tools are critical in future ability to support more customers with less resources, streamline support, and improve internal efficiency.

All hardware development (electronics and mechanical) is generally outsourced, however small projects like mounting solutions or cabling are handled in house.

ITEM 1A.RISK FACTORS

Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below, together with all of the other information in this Form 10-K, including our consolidated financial statements and related notes, before investing in our common stock. If any of the following risks materialize, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects could be materially and adversely affected. In that event, the price of our common stock could decline, and you could lose part or all of your investment.

Risks Related to Our Business

We have limited cash on hand and we will require a significant amount of capital to carry out our proposed business plan to import, market and sell electric vehicles, to continue to expand our fleet management technology sales and service operations, and to manufacture, market and sell our new line of PACERVANTAGE golf carts. There is no assurance that we will raise sufficient capital to execute our business plan or to continue to fund operations of our Company. There is substantial doubt as to the ability of our Company to continue as a going concern.

We incurred a comprehensive loss of $6,297,312 and $3,171,164$6,347,178 during the yearsyear ended December 31, 2020, and 2021 respectively. Although we($6,297,362 – December 31, 2020). We had a cash of $1,372,016$275,383 as at December 31, 2020,2021, and our working capital deficit was $746,341.$2,314,163. As at December 31, 20192020 we had cash of $25,494 and a working capital deficit of $8,376,433.$746,341. We believe that we will need significant additional equity financing to execute our business plan and to continue as a going concern, given that, among other things:

we have begun the importation and homologation of our range of electric vehicles, and we expect to incur significant ramp-up in costs and expenses through the establishment and supply of our dealership network and the fulfillmentfulfilment of anticipated product orders;
we have endeavoredendeavoured to manufacture and assemble our new line of PACERVantage golf carts in North America, and we anticipate significant ramp-up costs and expenses through the establishment of a manufacturing facility;
we anticipate that the gross profit generated from the sale of our electric vehicle and golf cart offerings will not be sufficient to cover our operating expenses until we achieve a high volume of sales, and our achieving profitability will depend, in part, on our ability to materially reduce the bill of materials and per unit manufacturing cost of our products; and
we do not anticipate that we will be eligible to obtain bank loans, or other forms of debt financing on terms that would be acceptable to us.

We anticipate generating a significant loss for the current fiscal year. The report of independent registered public accounting firm on our audited financial statements includes an explanatory paragraph relating to our ability to continue as a going concern.

We expect significant increases in costs and expenses to forestall profits for the foreseeable future, even if we generate increased revenues in the near term. Our recently introduced and planned products might not become commercially successful. If we are to ever achieve profitability, we must have a successful introduction and acceptance of our electric vehicles and golf carts, which may not occur. We expect that our operating losses will increase substantially in 2021,2022, and thereafter, and we also expect to continue to incur operating losses and to experience negative cash flows for the next several years.

There is no assurance that any amount raised through this offering will be sufficient to continue to fund the operations of our Company.

We will need additional financing to implement our business plan.

The Company will need additional financing to fully implement its business plan in a manner that not only continues to expand an already established direct-to-consumer approach, but also allows the Company to establish a stronger brand name in all the areas in which it operates. In particular, the Company will need additional financing to:

Effectuate its business plan and further develop its golf products and service division, and its electric vehicle marketing and distribution division;
Expand its facilities, human resources, and infrastructure; and
Increase its marketing efforts and lead generation.

There are no assurances that additional financing will be available on favorablefavourable terms, or at all. If additional financing is not available, the Company will need to reduce, defer or cancel development programs, planned initiatives and overhead expenditures. The failure to adequately fund our capital requirements could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Moreover, the sale of additional equity securities to raise financing will result in additional dilution to the Company’s stockholders and incurring additional indebtedness could involve the imposition of covenants that restrict the Company’s operations.

 

36

We currently have negative operating cash flows, and if we are unable to generate positive operating cash flows in the future our viability as an operating business will be adversely affected.

We have made significant up-front investments in research and development, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses to rapidly develop and expand our business. We are currently incurring expenditures related to our operations that have generated a negative operating cash flow. Operating cash flow may decline in certain circumstances, many of which are beyond our control. We might not generate sufficient revenues in the near future. Because we continue to incur such significant future expenditures for research and development, sales, marketing, general, and administrative expenses, we may continue to experience negative cash flow until we reach a sufficient level of sales with positive gross margins to cover operating expenses. An inability to generate positive cash flow until we reach a sufficient level of sales with positive gross margins to cover operating expenses or raise additional capital on reasonable terms will adversely affect our viability as an operating business.

To carry out our proposed business plan for the next 12 months to develop, manufacture, sell and service electric vehicles we will require additional capital.

To carry out our proposed business plan for the next 12 months, we estimate that we will need approximately $19.6$40 million in addition to cash on hand atas of December 31, 2021. If cash on hand, revenue from the sale of our cars, if any, and cash received upon the exercise of outstanding warrants, if any are exercised, are not sufficient to cover our cash requirements, we will need to raise additional funds through the sale of our equity securities, in either private placements or registered offerings and/or shareholder loans. If we are unsuccessful in raising enough funds through such capital-raising efforts we may review other financing possibilities such as bank loans. Financing might not be available to us or, if available, may not be available on terms that are acceptable to us.

Our ability to obtain the necessary financing to carry out our business plan is subject to a number of factors, including general market conditions and investor acceptance of our business plan. These factors may make the timing, amount, terms and conditions of such financing unattractive or unavailable to us. If we are unable to raise sufficient funds, we will have to significantly reduce our spending, delay or cancel our planned activities or substantially change our current corporate structure. We might not be able to obtain any funding, and we might not have sufficient resources to conduct our business as projected, either of which could mean that we would be forced to curtail or discontinue our operations.

Terms of future financings may adversely impact your investment.

We may have to engage in common equity, debt or preferred stock financing in the future. Your rights and the value of your investment in our securities could be reduced. Interest on debt securities could increase costs and negatively impacts operating results. Preferred stock could be issued in series from time to time with such designation, rights, preferences and limitations as needed to raise capital. The terms of preferred stock could be more advantageous to those investors than to the holders of common shares. In addition, if we need to raise equity capital from the sale of common shares, institutional or other investors may negotiate terms at least as, and possibly more, favorablefavourable than the terms of your investment. Common shares which we sell could be sold into any market which develops, which could adversely affect the market price.

Our future growth depends upon consumers’ willingness to adopt our range of electric vehicles.

Our growth highly depends upon the adoption by consumers of, and we are subject to an elevated risk of, any reduced demand for alternative fuel vehicles in general and electric vehicles in particular. If the market for low speed or for high speed electric vehicles does not develop as we expect, or develops more slowly than we expect, our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results will be negatively impacted. The market for alternative fuel vehicles is relatively new, rapidly evolving, characterized by rapidly changing technologies, price competition, additional competitors, evolving government regulation and industry standards, frequent new vehicle announcements and changing consumer demands and behaviors.behaviours. Factors that may influence the adoption of alternative fuel vehicles, and specifically electric vehicles, include:

perceptions about electric vehicle quality, safety (in particular with respect to lithium-ion battery packs), design,

performance and cost, especially if adverse events or accidents occur that are linked to the quality or safety of electric vehicles;

the limited range over which electric vehicles may be driven on a single battery charge;
the decline of an electric vehicle’s range resulting from deterioration over time in the battery’s ability to hold a charge;
concerns about electric grid capacity and reliability, which could derail our efforts to promote electric vehicles as a practical solution to vehicles which require gasoline;
the availability of alternative fuel vehicles, including plug-in hybrid electric vehicles;
the availability of service for electric vehicles;
volatility in the cost of oil and gasoline;
government regulations and economic incentives promoting fuel efficiency and alternate forms of energy;
access to charging stations, standardization of electric vehicle charging systems and consumers’ perceptions about convenience and cost to charge an electric vehicle;

The influence of any of the factors described above may cause current or potential customers not to purchase our electric vehicles, which would materially adversely affect our business, operating results, financial condition and prospects.

37

The range of our electric vehicles on a single charge declines over time which may negatively influence potential customers’ decisions whether to purchase our vehicles.

The range of our electric vehicles on a single charge declines principally as a function of usage, time and charging patterns. For example, a customer’s use of their vehicle as well as the frequency with which they charge the battery of their vehicle can result in additional deterioration of the battery’s ability to hold a charge. Battery deterioration will be variable as between our various offered vehicles. Such battery deterioration and the related decrease in range may negatively influence potential customer decisions whether to purchase our vehicles, which may harm our ability to market and sell our vehicles.

If we are unable to keep up with advances in electric vehicle technology, we may suffer a decline in our competitive position.

We may be unable to keep up with changes in electric vehicle technology and, as a result, may suffer a decline in our competitive position. Any failure to keep up with advances in electric vehicle technology would result in a decline in our competitive position which would materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, operating results and financial condition. Our research and development efforts may not be sufficient to adapt to changes in electric vehicle technology. As technologies change we plan to upgrade or adapt our vehicles and introduce new models to continue to provide vehicles with the latest technology and, in particular, battery cell technology. However, our vehicles may not compete effectively with alternative vehicles if we are not able to source and integrate the latest technology into our vehicles. For example, we do not manufacture battery cells which makes us depend upon other suppliers of battery cell technology for our battery packs.

Demand in the vehicle industry is highly volatile.

Volatility of demand in the vehicle industry may materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, operating results and financial condition. The markets in which we will be competing have been subject to considerable volatility in demand in recent periods. Demand for automobile sales depends to a large extent on general, economic, political and social conditions in a given market and the introduction of new vehicles and technologies. As a new start-up manufacturer we will have fewer financial resources than more established vehicle manufacturers to withstand changes in the market and disruptions in demand.

We depend on third-parties for our electric vehicle manufacturing needs.

The delivery of our licensed vehicles to future customers and the revenue derived therefrom depends on the ability of our suppliers, including Jonway and Skywell, to fulfil their obligations under their respective license and distribution agreement with our company. Fulfilment of these obligations is outside of our control and depends on a variety of factors, including their respective operations, financial condition and geopolitical and economic risks that could affect China. The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic or measures taken by the Chinese government relating thereto may also result in non-performance by our suppliers. If they are unable to fulfil their obligations or are only able to partially fulfil their obligations under our existing agreements with them, or if they are forced to terminate our agreements with them, either as a result of the coronavirus outbreak, the Chinese government’s measures relating thereto or otherwise, we will not be able to produce or sell our licensed vehicles in the volumes anticipated and on the timetable that we anticipate, if at all.

The impact of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic on the global economy and our operations remains uncertain, which could have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition and on the market price of our common shares.

In December 2019, a strain of novel coronavirus (now commonly known as COVID-19) was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China. COVID-19 has since spread rapidly throughout many countries, and, on March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 to be a pandemic. In an effort to contain and mitigate the spread of COVID-19, many countries, including the United States, Canada and China, have imposed unprecedented restrictions on travel, and there have been business closures and a substantial reduction in economic activity in countries that have had significant outbreaks of COVID-19. Although our manufacturing partners now report that their operations have largely recovered, significant uncertainty remains as to the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our and our partners’ operations (including, without limitation, staffing levels), supply chains for parts and sales channels for our products, and on the global economy as a whole. It is currently not possible to predict how long the pandemic will last or the time that it will take for economic activity to return to prior levels. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in significant financial market volatility and uncertainty in recent weeks. A continuation or worsening of the levels of market disruption and volatility seen in the recent past could have an adverse effect on our ability to access capital, on our business, results of operations and financial condition, and on the market price of our common shares.

We do not currently have all arrangements in place that are required to fully execute our business plan.

To sell our electric vehicles and PACERVANTAGE golf carts as envisioned we must enter into certain additional agreements and arrangements that are not currently in place. These include entering into agreements with distributors, arranging for the transportation and storage for our planned electric vehicles, arranging for a facility for the assembly of our electric vehicles, and obtaining battery and other essential supplies in the quantities that we require. If we are unable to enter into such agreements, or are only able to do so on terms that are unfavorableunfavourable to us, we may not be able to fully carry out our business plans.

We are subject to numerous environmental and health and safety laws and any breach of such laws may have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results.

We are subject to numerous environmental and health and safety laws, including statutes, regulations, bylaws and other legal requirements. These laws relate to the generation, use, handling, storage, transportation and disposal of regulated substances, including hazardous substances (such as batteries), dangerous goods and waste, emissions or discharges into soil, water and air, including noise and odors (which could result in remediation obligations), and occupational health and safety matters, including indoor air quality. These legal requirements vary by location and can arise under federal, provincial, state or municipal laws. Any breach of such laws and/or requirements would have a material adverse effect on our Company and its operating results.

38

Our vehicles are subject to motor vehicle standards and the failure to satisfy such mandated safety standards would have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results.

All vehicles sold must comply with federal, state and provincial motor vehicle safety standards. In both Canada and the United States vehicles that meet or exceed all federally mandated safety standards are certified under the federal regulations. In this regard, Canadian and U.S. motor vehicle safety standards are substantially the same. Rigorous testing and the use of approved materials and equipment are among the requirements for achieving federal certification. Failure by us to have the SOLO, the Tofino or any future model EV satisfy motor vehicle standards would have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results.

If we are unable to reduce and adequately control the costs associated with operating our business, including our costs of manufacturing, sales and materials, our business, financial condition, operating results and prospects will suffer.

If we are unable to reduce and/or maintain a sufficiently low level of costs for designing, manufacturing, marketing, selling and distributing and servicing our electric vehicles relative to their selling prices, our operating results, gross margins, business and prospects could be materially and adversely impacted.

We have very limited experience servicing our vehicles. If we are unable to address the service and warranty requirements of our future customers our business will be materially and adversely affected.

If we are unable to address the service requirements of our future customers our business and prospects will be materially and adversely affected. In addition, we anticipate the level and quality of the service we will provide our customers will have a direct impact on the success of our future vehicles. If we are unable to offer satisfactory service to our customers, our ability to generate customer loyalty, grow our business and sell additional vehicles could be impaired.

We will continue to encounter substantial competition in our business.

The Company believes that existing and new competitors will continue to improve their products and services, as well as introduce new products and services with competitive price and performance characteristics. The Company expects that it must continue to innovate, and to invest in product development and productivity improvements, to compete effectively in the several markets in which the Company participates. The Company’s competitors could develop a more efficient product or service or undertake more aggressive and costly marketing campaigns than those implemented by the Company, which could adversely affect the Company’s marketing strategies and have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Important factors affecting the Company’s current ability to compete successfully include:

lead generation and marketing costs;
service delivery protocols;
branded name advertising; and
product and service pricing.

In periods of reduced demand for the Company’s products and services, the Company can either choose to maintain market share by reducing product and service pricing to meet the competition, or maintain its product and service pricing, which would likely sacrifice market share. Sales and overall profitability may be reduced in either case. In addition, there can be no assurance that additional competitors will not enter the Company’s existing markets, or that the Company will be able to continue to compete successfully against its competition.

The unavailability, reduction or elimination of government and economic incentives could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

Any reduction, elimination or discriminatory application of government subsidies and economic incentives that are offered to purchasers of EVs or persons installing home charging stations, the reduced need for such subsidies and incentives due to the perceived success of the electric vehicle, fiscal tightening or other reasons may result in the diminished competitiveness of the alternative fuel vehicle industry generally or our electric vehicles in particular. This could materially and adversely affect the growth of the alternative fuel automobile markets and our business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

39

If we fail to manage future growth effectively, we may not be able to market and sell our vehicles successfully.

Any failure to manage our growth effectively could materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, operating results and financial condition. We plan to expand our operations in the near future in connection with the planned marketing and sale of our licensed vehicles and our PACERVANTAGE golf carts. Our future operating results depend to a large extent on our ability to manage this expansion and growth successfully. Risks that we face in undertaking this expansion include:

training new personnel
forecasting production, sales and revenue;
controlling expenses and investments in anticipation of expanded operations;
establishing or expanding design, manufacturing, sales and service facilities;
implementing and enhancing administrative infrastructure, systems and processes;
addressing new markets; and
establishing international operations.

We intend to continue to hire a number of additional personnel, including design and manufacturing personnel and service technicians, for our electric vehicles and golf carts. Competition for individuals with experience in designing, manufacturing and servicing electric vehicles is intense, and we may not be able to attract, assimilate, train or retain additional highly qualified personnel in the future. The failure to attract, integrate, train, motivate and retain these additional employees could seriously harm our business and prospects.

Our business may be adversely affected by laborlabour and union activities.

Although none of our employees are currently represented by a laborlabour union, it is common throughout the automobile industry generally for many employees at automobile companies to belong to a union, which can result in higher employee costs and increased risk of work stoppages. We will also directly and indirectly depend upon other companies with unionized work forces, such as parts suppliers and trucking and freight companies, and work stoppages or strikes organized by such unions could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition or operating results. If a work stoppage occurs within our business, or that of our key suppliers, it could delay the manufacture and sale of our electric vehicles and have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, operating results or financial condition. Additionally, if we expand our business to include full in-house manufacturing of our vehicles, our employees might join or form a laborlabour union and we may be required to become a union signatory.

We may become subject to product liability claims, which could harm our financial condition and liquidity if we are not able to successfully defend or insure against such claims.

We may become subject to product liability claims, which could harm our business, prospects, operating results and financial condition. The automobile industry experiences significant product liability claims and we face inherent risk of exposure to claims in the event our vehicles do not perform as expected or malfunction resulting in personal injury or death. Our risks in this area are particularly pronounced given we have limited field experience of our vehicles. A successful product liability claim against us could require us to pay a substantial monetary award. Moreover, a product liability claim could generate substantial negative publicity about our vehicles and business and inhibit or prevent commercialization of other future vehicle candidates which would have a material adverse effect on our brand, business, prospects and operating results. We plan to maintain product liability insurance for all our vehicles, but any such insurance might not be sufficient to cover all potential product liability claims. Any lawsuit seeking significant monetary damages either in excess of our coverage or outside of our coverage may have a material adverse effect on our reputation, business and financial condition. We may not be able to secure additional product liability insurance coverage on commercially acceptable terms or at reasonable costs when needed, particularly if we do face liability for our products and are forced to make a claim under our policy.

We rely on key executive officers, and their knowledge of our business and technical expertise would be difficult to replace.

We are highly dependent on our executive officer. If the Company’s senior executive or other key personnel are unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions, the Company may not be able to replace them easily or at all, and the Company’s business may be disrupted. Competition for senior management personnel is intense, the pool of qualified candidates is very limited, and we may not be able to retain the services of our senior executives or attract and retain high-quality senior executives in the future. Such failure could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

We may never pay dividends to our common stockholders.

The Company currently intends to retain its future earnings to support operations and to finance expansion; accordingly, the Company does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

The declaration, payment and amount of any future dividends on common stock will be at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors, and will depend upon, among other things, earnings, financial condition, capital requirements, level of indebtedness and other considerations the Board of Directors considers relevant. There is no assurance that future dividends will be paid on common stock or, if dividends are paid, the amount thereof.

Our common stock is quoted through the OTC Markets, which may have an unfavorableunfavourable impact on our stock price and liquidity.

The Company’s common stock is quoted on the OTC Markets, which is a significantly more limited market than the New York Stock Exchange or NASDAQ. The trading volume may be limited by the fact that many major institutional investment funds, including mutual funds, follow a policy of not investing in OTC Markets stocks and certain major brokerage firms restrict their brokers from recommending OTC Markets stocks because they are considered speculative and volatile.

The trading volume of the Company’s common stock has been and may continue to be limited and sporadic. As a result, the quoted price for the Company’s common stock on the OTC Markets may not necessarily be a reliable indicator of its fair market value.

Additionally, the securities of small capitalization companies may trade less frequently and in more limited volume than those of more established companies. The market for small capitalization companies is generally volatile, with wide price fluctuations not necessarily related to the operating performance of such companies.

40

Our stock price has been volatile, and your investment in our common stock could suffer a decline in value.

There has been significant volatility in the market price and trading volume of equity securities, which is unrelated to the financial performance of the companies issuing the securities. These broad market fluctuations may negatively affect the market price of our common stock. We have, and may in the future, incur rapid and substantial increases or decreases in our stock price that do not coincide in timing with the disclosure of news or developments by us. The stock market in general, and the market for mining companies in particular, has experienced extreme volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. You may not be able to resell your shares at or above the price you pay for those shares due to fluctuations in the market price of our Common Stock caused by changes in our operating performance or prospects and other factors.

Some specific factors that may have a significant effect on our Common Stock market price include:

actual or anticipated fluctuations in our operating results or future prospects;
our announcements or our competitors’ announcements of new products;
the public’s reaction to our press releases, our other public announcements and our filings with the SEC;
strategic actions by us or our competitors, such as acquisitions or restructurings;
new laws or regulations or new interpretations of existing laws or regulations applicable to our business;
changes in accounting standards, policies, guidance, interpretations or principles;
changes in our growth rates or our competitors’ growth rates;
developments regarding our patents or proprietary rights or those of our competitors;
our inability to raise additional capital as needed;
substantial sales of Common Stock underlying warrants and preferred stock;
concern as to the efficacy of our products;
changes in financial markets or general economic conditions;
sales of Common Stock by us or members of our management team; and
changes in stock market analyst recommendations or earnings estimates regarding our Common Stock, other comparable companies or our industry generally.

Our future sales of our Common Stock could adversely affect its price and our future capital-raising activities could involve the issuance of equity securities, which would dilute shareholders’ investments and could result in a decline in the trading price of our Common Stock.

We may sell securities in the public or private equity markets if and when conditions are favorable,favourable, even if we do not have an immediate need for additional capital at that time. Sales of substantial amounts of our common stock, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect the prevailing market price of our common stock and our ability to raise capital. We may issue additional common stock in future financing transactions or as incentive compensation for our executive management and other key personnel, consultants and advisors. Issuing any equity securities would be dilutive to the equity interests represented by our then-outstanding shares of common stock. The market price for our common stock could decrease as the market takes into account the dilutive effect of any of these issuances. Furthermore, we may enter into financing transactions at prices that represent a substantial discount to the market price of our common stock. A negative reaction by investors and securities analysts to any discounted sale of our equity securities could result in a decline in the trading price of our common stock.

Our common stock is classified as a “penny stock.”

Rule 3a51-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 establishes the definition of a “penny stock,” for purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a minimum bid price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to a limited number of exceptions which are not available to us. It is likely that the Company’s common stock will be considered to be a penny stock for the immediately foreseeable future.

For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the penny stock rules require that a broker or dealer approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks and the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased. In order to approve a person’s account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must obtain financial information and investment experience and objectives of the investor, make a reasonable determination that transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person, and make a reasonable determination that that person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.

The broker or dealer must also provide disclosure to its customers, prior to executing trades, about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading, the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions.

Because of these regulations, broker-dealers may not wish to furnish the necessary paperwork and disclosures and/or may encounter difficulties in their attempt to buy or sell shares of the Company’s common stock, which may in turn affect the ability of Company stockholders to sell their shares.

Accordingly, the penny stock classification adversely affects any market liquidity for the Company’s common stock and subjects the shares to certain risks associated with trading in penny stocks. These risks include difficulty for investors in purchasing or disposing of shares, difficulty in obtaining accurate bid and ask quotations, difficulty in establishing the market value of the shares, and a lack of securities analyst coverage.

41

Our success depends on attracting and retaining key personnel.

Our future plans could be harmed if we are unable to attract or retain key personnel, and our future success will depend, in part, on our ability to attract and retain qualified management and technical personnel. Equally, our success depends on the ability of our management and employees to interpret market data correctly and to interpret and respond to economic market and other conditions in order to locate and adopt appropriate investment opportunities, monitor such investments, and ultimately, if required, to successfully divest such investments. Further, no assurance can be given that our key personnel will continue their association or employment with us or that replacement personnel with comparable skills can be found. We have sought to and will continue to ensure that management and any key employees are appropriately compensated, however, their services cannot be guaranteed. If we are unable to attract and retain key personnel, our business may be adversely affected.

We do not know whether we will be successful in hiring or retaining qualified personnel, and our inability to hire qualified personnel on a timely basis, or the departure of key employees, could materially and adversely affect our development and profitable commercialization plans, our business prospects, results of operations, and financial condition.

Should we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud, which could harm our brand and operating results. Our compliance with the annual internal control report requirement for each fiscal year will depend on the effectiveness of our financial reporting and data systems and controls. Inferior internal controls could cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our stock and our access to capital. In addition, our internal control systems rely on people trained in the execution of the controls. Loss of these people or our inability to replace them with similarly skilled and trained individuals or new processes in a timely manner could adversely impact our internal control mechanisms.

The requirements of being a public company may strain our resources, divert management’s attention and affect our ability to attract and retain qualified board members and officers. Compliance with these rules and regulations increase our legal and financial compliance costs, make some activities more difficult, time-consuming or costly and increase demand on our systems and resources.

Protecting our intellectual property is necessary to protect our brand.

We may not be able to protect important intellectual property and we could incur substantial costs defending against claims that our products infringe on the proprietary rights of others. Our ability to compete effectively will depend, in part, on our ability to protect our proprietary system-level technologies, systems designs, and manufacturing processes.

We will rely on patents, trademarks, and other policies and procedures related to confidentiality to protect our intellectual property. However, some of our intellectual property is not covered by any patent or patent application. We could incur substantial costs in prosecuting or defending patent infringement suits or otherwise protecting our intellectual property rights. While we have attempted to safeguard and maintain our proprietary rights, we do not know whether we have been or will be completely successful in doing so. Moreover, patent applications and enforcement, thereof, filed in foreign countries may be subject to laws, rules and procedures that are substantially different from those of the United States, and any resulting foreign patents may be difficult and expensive to enforce. We could incur substantial costs in prosecuting or defending trademark infringement suits.

Further, our competitors may independently develop or patent technologies or processes that are substantially equivalent or superior to ours. In the event we are found to be infringing third party patents, we could be required to pay substantial royalties and/or damages, and we do not know whether we will be able to obtain licenses to use such patents on acceptable terms, if at all.

Failure to obtain needed licenses could delay or prevent the development, manufacture, or sale of our products, and could necessitate the expenditure of significant resources to develop or acquire non-infringing intellectual property.

Asserting, defending and maintaining our intellectual property rights could be difficult and costly and failure to do so may diminish our ability to compete effectively and may harm our operating results. As a result, we may need to pursue legal action in the future to enforce our intellectual property rights, to protect our trade secrets and domain names, and to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. If third parties prepare and file applications for trademarks used or registered by us, we may oppose those applications and be required to participate in proceedings to determine the priority of rights to the trademark.

Similarly, competitors may have filed applications for patents, may have received patents and may obtain additional patents and proprietary rights relating to products or technology that block or compete with ours. We may have to participate in interference proceedings to determine the priority of invention and the right to a patent for the technology.

Confidentiality agreements to which we are party may be breached, and we may not have adequate remedies for any breach. Also, our trade secrets may also be known without breach of such agreements or may be independently developed by competitors. Inability to maintain the proprietary nature of our technology and processes could allow our competitors to limit or eliminate any competitive advantages we may have.

As part of our business strategy, we intend to consider acquisitions of companies, technologies and products that we believe could improve our ability to compete in our core markets or allow us to enter new markets. Acquisitions, involve numerous risks, any of which could harm our business, including, difficulty in integrating the technologies, products, operations and existing contracts of a target company and realizing the anticipated benefits of the combined businesses; difficulty in supporting and transitioning customers, if any, of the target company; inability to achieve anticipated synergies or increase the revenue and profit of the acquired business; potential disruption of our ongoing business and distraction of management; the price we pay or other resources that we devote may exceed the value we realize; or the value we could have realized if we had allocated the purchase price or other resources to another opportunity and inability to generate sufficient revenue to offset acquisition costs.

If we finance acquisitions by issuing equity securities, our existing stockholders may be diluted; and as a result, if we fail to properly evaluate acquisitions or investments, we may not achieve the anticipated benefits of any such acquisitions, and we may incur costs in excess of what we anticipate.

Risks Relating to Ownership of Our Securities

If we issue additional shares in the future our existing shareholders will experience dilution.

Our certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 350,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.001. Our board of directors may choose to issue some or all of such shares to acquire one or more businesses or to provide additional financing in the future. The issuance of any such shares will result in a reduction of the book value and market price of the outstanding shares of our common stock. If we issue any such additional shares, such issuance will cause a reduction in the proportionate ownership and voting power of all current shareholders. Further, such issuance may result in a change of control of our corporation.

The price of our common stock could be volatile and could decline following the Offering at a time when you want to sell your holdings.

Numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, may cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate significantly. These factors include:

quarterly variations in our results of operations or those of our competitors;
delays in the establishment of manufacturing, assembly, and storage facilities for the distribution of our products;
announcements by us or our competitors of acquisitions, new products, significant contracts, commercial relationships or capital commitments;
intellectual property infringements;
our ability to develop and market new and enhanced products on a timely basis;
commencement of, or our involvement in, litigation;
major changes in our Board of Directors or management, including the departure of Mr. Silzer;
changes in governmental regulations;
changes in earnings estimates or recommendations by securities analysts;
the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on capital markets;
our failure to generate material revenues;
our public disclosure of the terms of this financing and any financing which we consummate in the future;
any acquisitions we may consummate;
announcements by us or our competitors of significant contracts, new services, acquisitions, commercial relationships, joint ventures or capital commitments;

frustration or cancellation of key contracts;
short selling activities;
changes in market valuations of similar companies; and
general economic conditions and slow or negative growth of end markets.

Securities class action litigation is often instituted against companies following periods of volatility in their stock price. This type of litigation could result in substantial costs to us and divert our management’s attention and resources.

Moreover, securities markets may from time to time experience significant price and volume fluctuations for reasons unrelated to operating performance of particular companies, such as the uncertainty associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. These market fluctuations may adversely affect the price of our common stock and other interests in our company at a time when you want to sell your interest in us.

Our common stock may be affected by limited trading volume and price fluctuations, which could adversely impact the value of our common stock.

Our common stock has experienced, and is likely to experience in the future, significant price and volume fluctuations, which could adversely affect the market price of our common stock without regard to our operating performance. In addition, we believe that factors such as quarterly fluctuations in our financial results and changes in the overall economy or the condition of the financial markets could cause the price of our common stock to fluctuate substantially. These fluctuations may also cause short sellers to periodically enter the market in the belief that we will have poor results in the future. We cannot predict the actions of market participants and, therefore, can offer no assurances that the market for our common stock will be stable or appreciate over time.

Future sales or perceived sales of our common stock could depress our stock price.

If the holders of our presently issued our future issued common stock were to attempt to sell a substantial amount of their holdings at once, the market price of our common stock could decline. Moreover, the perceived risk of this potential dilution could cause shareholders to attempt to sell their shares and investors to short the common stock, a practice in which an investor sells shares that he or she does not own at prevailing market prices, hoping to purchase shares later at a lower price to cover the sale. As each of these events would cause the number of shares of our common stock being offered for sale to increase, our common stock market price would likely further decline. All of these events could combine to make it very difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and price that we deem appropriate.

43

Trading on the OTC Markets may be volatile and sporadic, which could depress the market price of our common stock and make it difficult for our stockholders to resell their shares.

Our common stock is quoted on OTC Markets. Trading in stock quoted on OTC Markets is often thin and characterized by wide fluctuations in trading prices due to many factors that may have little to do with our operations or business prospects. This volatility could depress the market price of our common stock for reasons unrelated to operating performance. Moreover, OTC Markets is not a stock exchange, and trading of securities on the OTC Markets is often more sporadic than the trading of securities listed on a quotation system like NASDAQ or a stock exchange like the American Stock Exchange. Accordingly, our shareholders may have difficulty reselling any of their shares.

Our stock is a penny stock. Trading of our stock may be restricted by the SEC’s penny stock regulations and FINRA’s sales practice requirements, which may limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.

Our stock is a penny stock. The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which generally defines “penny stock” to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our securities are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors”. The term “accredited investor” refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer’s confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities. We believe the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in, and limit the marketability of, our common stock.

FINRA sales practice requirements may also limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.

In addition to the “penny stock” rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (see above for a discussion of penny stock rules), FINRA rules require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low-priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares.

Our business is subject to changing regulations related to corporate governance and public disclosure that have increased both our costs and the risk of noncompliance.

Because our common stock is publicly traded, we are subject to certain rules and regulations of federal, state and financial market exchange entities charged with the protection of investors and the oversight of companies whose securities are publicly traded. These entities, including the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the SEC and FINRA, have issued requirements and regulations and continue to develop additional regulations and requirements in response to corporate scandals and laws enacted by Congress, most notably the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Our efforts to comply with these regulations have resulted in, and are likely to continue resulting in, increased general and administrative expenses and diversion of management time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. Because new and modified laws, regulations and standards are subject to varying interpretations in many cases due to their lack of specificity, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidance is provided by regulatory and governing bodies. This evolution may result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance matters and additional costs necessitated by ongoing revisions to our disclosure and governance practices.

Provisions in our articles of incorporation and bylaws could discourage a change in control, or an acquisition of us by a third party, even if the acquisition would be favourable to you, thereby adversely affecting existing shareholders.

Our articles of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions that may have the effect of making more difficult or delaying attempts by others to obtain control of our Company, even when these attempts may be in the best interests of our shareholders. For example, our articles of incorporation authorize our Board of Directors, without stockholder approval, to issue one or more series of preferred stock, which could have voting and conversion rights that adversely affect or dilute the voting power of the holders of common stock. These provisions and others that could be adopted in the future could deter unsolicited takeovers or delay or prevent changes in our control or management, including transactions in which stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares over then-current market prices. These provisions may also limit the ability of stockholders to approve transactions that they may deem to be in their best interests.

44

Because Robert Silzer, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, controls a significant number of shares of our voting capital stock, he has effective control over actions requiring stockholder approval.

Robert Silzer, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, holds 2,019 shares of our common stock and 150,376 shares of Series A Preferred stock, which are entitled to vote with holders of the common stock as a class at the rate of 665 votes per share of Series A Preferred stock (100,000,040 votes, or approximately 75.0% of votes). In addition, our Directors James Singerling and Stephen Johnston each holds 25,000 shares of Series A Preferred stock (16,625,000 votes, or approximately 12.5% of aggregate votes each). As a result, Mr. Silzer, Singerling and Johnston control 133,250,040 or approximately 100% of shares entitled to vote, and have the ability to control the outcome of matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including the election of directors and any merger, consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of our assets. In addition, they have the ability to control the management and affairs of our company. Accordingly, any investors who purchase shares will be minority shareholders and as such will have little to no say in the direction of us and the election of directors. Additionally, this concentration of ownership might harm the market price of our common stock by:

delaying, deferring or preventing a change in corporate control;
impeding a merger, consolidation, takeover or other business combination involving us; or
discouraging a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us.

We may never pay dividends to our common stockholders.

So long as any shares of our senior ranking Series A, B, C, D, or E Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Company may not declare, pay or set apart for payment any dividend or make any distribution on the common stock. Furthermore, each of the 2,725 shares of Series F Preferred stock outstanding as of the date of this Quarterly report is entitled, until converted or redeemed, to receive cumulative dividends of 10% per annum, payable quarterly, in cash or Preferred Shares.

Subject to our obligation to pay Series F Preferred stock dividends, and regardless of restrictions imposed by our other series of Preferred Stock, we currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings for use in the operation of our business and do not anticipate paying any non-compulsory dividends on our preferred stock or common stock in the foreseeable future, if at all. Any future determination to declare dividends will be made at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, general business conditions and other factors that our Board of Directors may deem relevant. Any return to stockholders will therefore be limited to the increase, if any, of our share price that stockholders may be able to realize if they sell their shares.

ITEM 3.LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On September 7, 2016, Chetu Inc. has filed a Complaint for Damage in Florida to recover unpaid invoice amounts of $27,335 plus interest of $4,939. The invoice was not paid due to a dispute that the Company did not think that vendor had delivered the service according to the agreement between the two parties. As at December 31, 2020,2021, included in trade and other payables is $47,023$29,329 (December 31, 20192020 - $40,227)$47,023) related to this unpaid invoice, interest and legal fees.

On May 24, 2017, the Company received a notice of default from Coastal Investment Partners LLC (“Coastal”), on three 8% convertible promissory notes issued by the Company in aggregate principal amount of $261,389 and commenced a lawsuit on June 12, 2017 in the United States District Court, Southern District of New York. Coastal alleges that the Company failed to deliver shares of common stock underlying the Coastal notes, and thus giving rise to an event of default. Coastal seeks damages in excess of $250,000 for breach of contact damages, and legal fees incurred by Coastal with respect to the lawsuit. On June 13, 2017, Coastal filed a complaint and motion for a preliminary injunction seeking conversion of the principal amount of a note issued by it to the Company into common stock of the Company. The Court issued an Order to Show Cause as to why a preliminary injunction should not be issued on June 27, 2017, and the Company opposed Coastal’s motion. A hearing on the motion for preliminary injunction was held on July 26, 2017. For the following reasons, the Court denied Coastal’s motion for a preliminary injunction. The Company also filed a cross motion to dismiss on the grounds that the $72,500 Note violates New York’s criminal usury law. The Court did not address this motion at that time and has set a separate briefing schedule for it. This action is still pending. On December 31, 2020, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement with Coastal for full and final satisfaction of its claims and all outstanding principal debt and accrued interest for $250,000 paid in cash and 200,000 shares of common stock fair valued at $268,000. As at December 31, 2020, $250,000 is included in loans and accrued interested and $268,000 is included in shares to be issued in relation to the settlement. The Company paid cash of $250,000 on February 11, 2021, in satisfaction of the agreement.

On October 10, 2017, a vendor filed a complaint for Breach of Contract with Superior Court of the State of California. The Complainant is alleging that it is contractually owed 1,848,130 shares of the Company’s common stock and is seeking damages of $270,000. In addition, a related vendor filed in the same filing a complaint for $72,000 as part of a consulting agreement the Company executed. Subsequent to year end, the Company reached a settlement of which the terms have not, as yet, occurred. As at December 31, 2020, included in accrued liabilities is a contingent liability of $115,000 for the expected financial impact of the settlement .

On April 9, 2018, we received a share-reserve increase letter from JSJ Investments Inc. (“JSJ”) pursuant to the terms of a 10% convertible promissory note issued to the Company in the principal amount of $135,000. On April 24, 2018, the Company received a notice of default from JSJ for failure to comply with the share-reserve increase and on April 30, 2018 demanded payment in full of the default amount totaling $172,845. On May 7, 2018, JSJ commenced a lawsuit in the United States District Court, District of Dallas County, Texas. JSJ alleged that the Company failed to comply with the share-reserve increase letter, thus giving rise to an event of default, and failed to pay the outstanding default amount due under the terms of the note. JSJ sought damages in excess of $200,000 but not more than $1,000,000, consisting of the principal amount of the note, default interest, and legal fees incurred by JSJ with respect to the lawsuit. On August 31, 2018 final judgement was entered against DSG Global in the amount of $187,908, which includes $172,846 in damages, $2,450 in legal fees, $1,982 in pre-judgement interest and $10,631 in post-judgment interest. The appeal period expired on September 30, 2018. As at the date of this Annual Report, the plaintiff is seeking to enforce the Texas judgement against DSG Global in British Columbia, Canada. As at September 30, 2020, the principal balance and accrued interest on this convertible note is included on the consolidated balance sheet under convertible notes payable. In November 2020, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement with JSJ for full and final satisfaction of its claims for $100,000 paid in cash on or before November 10, 2020. Upon receipt of the Settlement Payment, JSJ agreed to provide (a) a settlement agreement and release of all its claims against the Company; and (b) a consent dismissal order in B.C. Supreme Court Action No. 1911876 on a “without costs” basis, The Company paid cash of $100,000 on November 10, 2020 in satisfaction of the agreement.

We may, from time to time, be party to litigation and subject to claims incident to the ordinary course of business. As our growth continues, we may become party to an increasing number of litigation matters and claims. The outcome of litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, and the resolution of any future matters could materially affect our future financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In January 2015, we changed our name to DSG Global, Inc. and effected a one-for-three reverse stock split of our issued and outstanding common stock in anticipation of entering in a share exchange agreement with DSG TAG Systems, Inc., a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on April 17, 2008 and extra provincially registered in British Columbia, Canada in 2008.

On April 13, 2015, we entered into a share exchange agreement with Vantage Tag Systems Inc. (“VTS”) (formerly DSG Tag Systems Inc.) and the shareholders of VTS who become parties to the agreement. Pursuant to the terms of the share exchange agreement, we agreed to acquire not less than 75% and up to 100% of the issued and outstanding common shares in the capital stock of VTS in exchange for the issuance to the selling shareholders of up to 20,000,000 pre-reverse split shares of our common stock on the basis of 1 common share for 5.4935 common shares of VTS.

49

On May 6, 2015, we completed the acquisition of approximately 75% (82,435,748 common shares) of the issued and outstanding common shares of VTS as contemplated by the share exchange agreement by issuing 15,185,875 pre-reverse split shares of our common stock to shareholders of VTS who became parties to the agreement. In addition, concurrent with the closing of the share exchange agreement, we issued an additional 179,823 pre-reverse split shares of our common stock to Westergaard Holdings Ltd. in partial settlement of accrued interest on outstanding indebtedness of VTS.

Following the initial closing of the share exchange agreement and through October 22, 2015, we acquired an additional 101,200 shares of common stock of VTS from shareholders who became parties to the share exchange agreement and issued to these shareholders an aggregate of 18,422 pre-reverse split shares of our common stock. Following completion of these additional purchases, DSG Global Inc. owns approximately 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of VTS. An aggregate of 4,229,384 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of VTS were exchanged for 51 Series B and 3,000,000 Series E preferred shares during the year ended December 31, 2018 by Westergaard Holdings Ltd., an affiliate of Keith Westergaard, a previous member of our board of directors which have not been issued as of December 31, 2020.

The reverse acquisition was accounted for as a recapitalization effected by a share exchange, wherein VTS is considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes. The assets and liabilities of the acquired entity have been brought forward at their book value and no goodwill has been recognized. We adopted the business and operations of VTS upon the closing of the share exchange agreement.

Factors Affecting Our Performance

We believe that the growth of our business and our future success depend on various opportunities, challenges, and other factors, including the following:

Inventory Sourcing

In order to successfully deliver products, increase sales, and maintain customer satisfaction, we continue to source new, reliable suppliers of our hardware units and components at competitive prices. Presently, we out-source our INFINITY, TAG and TAGVantage Golf Carts from suppliers in China, which continues to provide us with higher quality, newer technology at competitive pricing.

In addition, DSG is currently in negotiations with a telecommunications provider to provide new technology in hardware and wireless access. However, there is no guarantee that we will conclude any agreement in this regard.

Competition

We compete with a number of established producers and distributors of vehicle fleet management systems, as well as producers of non-golf specific utility vehicle fleet management systems. Many of our competitors have longer operating histories, better brand recognition and greater financial resources than we do. In order for us to successfully compete in our industry we must demonstrate our products’ competitive advantages, develop a comprehensive marketing strategy, and increase our financial resources.

We believe that we will be able to compete effectively in our industry because of the versatility, reliability, and relative affordability of our products when compared to those of our competitors. We will attempt to build awareness of our competitive advantages among existing and potential customers through trade shows, sales visits and demonstrations, online marketing, and positive word of mouth advertising. However, there can be no assurance that even if we do these things, we will be able to compete effectively with the other companies in our industry.

Additional Capital

We require additional capital to continue to develop software and products, meet our contractual obligations, and execute our business plan. There can be no assurances that we will be able to raise additional capital on acceptable terms or at all, which would adversely affect our ability to achieve our business objectives.

Components of Our Results of Operations

Revenue

We derive revenue from four different sources, as follows:

Systems sales revenue, which consists of the sales price paid by those customers who purchase or lease our TAG system hardware.

Monthly service fees are paid by all customers for the wireless data fee charges required to operate the GPS tracking on the TAG systems.

Monthly rental Fees are paid by those customers that rent the TAG system hardware. The amount of a customer’s monthly payment varies based on the type of equipment rented (a TAG, a TAG and TEXT, or a TAG and INFINITY).

Golf Cart Sales Revenue, which consist of the sales price paid by the customers who purchase our Vantage and licensed Shelby golf carts.

Programmatic advertising revenue is a new source of revenue that we believe has the potential to be strategic for us in the future. We are in the process of implementing and designing software to provide advertising and other media functionality on our INFINITY units.

We recognize revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over a product to a customer. Revenue is measured based on the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products. In instances where final acceptance of the product is specified by the customer, revenue is deferred until all acceptance criteria have been met. We accrue for warranty costs, sales returns, and other allowances based on its historical experience.

Our revenue recognition policies are discussed in more detail under “Note 3 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-K.

Cost of Revenue

Our cost of revenue consists primarily of hardware purchases, wireless data fees, mapping, installation costs, freight expenses and inventory adjustments.

Hardware purchases. Our equipment purchases consist primarily of TAG system control units, TEXT display, and INFINITY displays. The TAG system control unit is sold as a stand-alone unit or in conjunction with our TEXT alphanumeric display or INFINITY high definition “touch activated” display. Hardware purchases also include costs of components used during installations, such as cables, mounting solutions, and other miscellaneous equipment.

Wireless data fees. Our wireless data fees consist primarily of the data fees charged by outside providers of GPS tracking used in all of our TAG system control units.

Mapping. Our mapping costs consist of aerial mapping, course map, geofencing, and 3D flyovers for golf courses. This cost is incurred at the time of hardware installation.

Installation. Our installation costs consist primarily of costs incurred by our employed service technicians for the cost of travel, meals, and miscellaneous components required during installations. In addition, these costs also include fees paid to external contractors for installations on a project-by-project basis.

Freight expenses and Inventory adjustments. Our freight expenses consist primarily of costs to ship hardware to courses for installations. Our inventory adjustments include inventory write offs, write downs, and other adjustments to the cost of inventory.

Operating expenses & other income (expenses) We classify our operating expenses and other income (expenses) into six categories: compensation, general and administrative, warranty, foreign currency exchange, and finance costs. Our operating expenses consist primarily of sales and marketing, salaries and wages, consulting fees, professional fees, trade shows, software development, and allocated costs. Allocated costs include charges for facilities, office expenses, telephones and other miscellaneous expenses. Our other income (expenses) primarily consists of financing costs and foreign exchange gains or losses.

51

Compensation expense. Our compensation expenses consist primarily of personnel costs, such as employee salaries, payroll expenses, and employee benefits. This includes salaries for management, administration, engineering, sales and marketing, and service support technicians. Salaries and wages directly related to projects or research and development are expensed as incurred to their operating expense category.

General and administrative. Our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of sales and marketing, commissions, travel, trade shows, consultant fees, insurance, and compliance and other administrative functions, as well as accounting and legal professional services fees, allocated costs and other corporate expenses. Sales and marketing includes brand marketing, marketing materials, and media management.

Warranty expense (recovery). Our warranty expenses consist primarily of associated material product costs, laborlabour costs for technical support staff, and other associated overhead. Warranty costs are expensed as they are incurred.

Bad debt. Our bad debt expense consists primarily of amounts written down for doubtful accounts recorded on trade receivables.

Depreciation and amortization. Our depreciation and amortization costs consist primarily of depreciation and amortization on fixed assets, equipment on lease and intangible assets.

Foreign currency exchange. Our foreign currency exchange consists primarily of foreign exchange fluctuations recorded in Canadian dollar (CAD), British Pounds (GBP), or Euro (EUR) at the rates of exchange in effect when the transaction occurred.

Finance costs. Our finance costs consist primarily of investor interest expense, investor commission fees, and other financing charges for obtaining debt financing.

We expect to continue to invest in corporate infrastructure and incur additional expenses associated with being a public company, including increased legal and accounting costs, investor relations costs, higher insurance premiums and compliance costs associated with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. In addition, we expect sales and marketing expenses to increase in absolute dollars in future periods. In particular, we expect to incur additional marketing costs to support the expansion of our offerings in new markets like commercial fleet management and agriculture.

During the year ended December 31, 2020,2021, cash used in operations totaled $1,400,086.totalled $5,613,568. The relatively lownormal level of cash used compared to our estimated working capital needs in the future was the result of an accumulation of vendor payables, somelease receivable that increased due to in house finance of which were settled with equity.selected customers. We need to reduce the current level of payables in the future to maintain a good relationship with our vendors and expand our sales and service team to achieve our operational objectives. At present, our cash requirements for the next 12 months outweigh the funds available. Of the $20,237,500$35,700,500 that we require for the next 12 months, we had $1,372,016$275,383 in cash as of December 31, 2020,2021, and a working capital deficit of $746,341.$2,314,163. Our principal sources of liquidity are cash generated from product sales and debt financings. In orderAs of December 31, 2021, the Company had secured signed contracts of over $4.5 million of which approximately $2 million was recognized the fiscal year 2021. The Company expects to satisfy the majority of its performance obligations on the remaining contracts during fiscal 2022 totalling approximately $2.5 million. To achieve sustained profitability and positive cash flows from operations, we will need to increase revenue and/or reduce operating expenses. Our ability to maintain, or increase, current revenue levels to achieve and sustain profitability will depend, in part, on demand for our products.

59

In order to improve our liquidity, we also plan to pursue additional equity financing from private investors or possibly a registered public offering. We do not currently have any definitive arrangements in place for the completion of any further private placement financings and there is no assurance that we will be successful in completing any further private placement financings. To help finance our day to day working capital needs, the founder and CEO of the Company has made total payments of $113,475 since late 2015. If we are unable to achieve the necessary additional financing, then we plan to reduce the amounts that we spend on our business activities and administrative expenses in order to be within the amount of capital resources obligations and execute our business plan. There can be no assurances that we will be able to raise additional capital on acceptable terms or at all, which would adversely affect our ability to achieve our business objectives.

Off-Balance Sheet Transactions

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Contractual Obligations and Known Future Cash Requirements

Indemnification Agreements

In the ordinary course of business, we enter into agreements of varying scope and terms pursuant to which we agree to indemnify customers, vendors, lessors, business partners and other parties with respect to certain matters, including, but not limited to, losses arising out of breach of such agreements, services to be provided by us or from intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties. In addition, we have entered into indemnification agreements with directors and certain officers and employees that will require us, among other things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors, officers or employees. No demands have been made upon us to provide indemnification under such agreements and there are no claims that we are aware of that could have a material effect on our consolidated balance sheet, consolidated statements of operations, consolidated statements of comprehensive loss or consolidated statements of cash flows.

Operating Leases

We currently lease our corporate headquarters in Surrey, British Columbia and a showroom office in Vacaville,Fairfield, California, under operating lease agreements that expire on July 31, 2023 and August 31, 2022, respectively. The terms of both lease agreements provide for rental payments on a graduated basis.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of consolidated financial statements also requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, costs and expenses, and related disclosures. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ significantly from the estimates made by our management. To the extent that there are differences between our estimates and actual results, our future financial statements presentation, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows will be affected.

We believe that the assumptions and estimates associated with revenue recognition, derivative liabilities, foreign currency and foreign currency transactions and comprehensive loss have the greatest potential impact on our consolidated financial statements. Therefore, we consider these to be our critical accounting policies and estimates. For further information on all of our significant accounting policies, see the notes to our consolidated financial statements.

Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Recently AdoptedIssued Accounting Pronouncements

Applicable for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021:

In November 2021, FASB issued ASU 2021-10, Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance. ASU 2021-10 was issued to increase the transparency of government assistance including the disclosure of (1) the types of assistance, (2) an entity’s accounting for the assistance, and (3) the effect of the assistance on an entity’s financial statements. Requiring disclosures about government assistance in the notes to financial statements will provide comparable and transparent information to investors and other financial statement users to enable them to understand an entity’s financial results and prospects for future cash flows. The amendment applies to all business entities, except those explicitly excluded. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted.

In July 2021, FASB issued ASU 2021-05, Lessors – Certain Leases with Variable Lease Payments. The amendments in this Update affect lessors with lease contracts that (1) have variable lease payments that do not depend on a reference index or a rate and (2) would have resulted in the recognition of a selling loss at lease commencement if classified as sales-type or direct financing. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, for all entities, and interim periods within those fiscal years for public business entities.

 

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, established Topic 842, Leases, by issuing Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, which requires lessors to classify leases as a sales-type, direct financing, or operating lease and requires lessees to recognize leases on-balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. Topic 842 was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-01, Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842; ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases; and ASU No. 2018-11, Targeted Improvements.

The Company adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2019 and elected to use the modified retrospective for transition. The Company elected the following practical expedients:

Transition method practical expedient – permits the Company to use the effective date as the date of initial application. Upon adoption, the Company did not have a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. Financial information and disclosures for periods before January 1, 2019 were not updated.
Package of practical expedients – permits the Company not to reassess under the new standard its prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification, and initial direct costs. This allowed the Company to continue classifying its leases at transition in substantially the same manner.
Single component practical expedient – permits the Company to not separate lease and non-lease components of leases. Upon transition, rental income, expense reimbursement, and other were aggregated into a single line within rental and other revenues on the condensed consolidated statement of operations.
Short-term lease practical expedient – permits the Company not to recognize leases with a term equal to or less than 12 months.

Lessee Accounting

The new standard requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases are classified as finance or operating at inception, with classification affecting the pattern and recording of expenses in the statement of operations. Upon transition the Company recognized lease assets and lease liabilities principally for its office lease. When measuring lease liabilities for leases that were classified as operating leases, the Company discounted lease payments using its incremental borrowing rate at January 1, 2019. The weighted average incremental borrowing rate applied was 11.98%. Refer to Notes 5 and 11.

Lessor Accounting

The new standard remained largely unchanged from that applied under previous GAAP. The majority of operating leases should remain classified as operating leases and should continue to recognize lease income on a generally straight-line basis over the lease term. The new standard made changes to lessor accounting guidance to align with lessee accounting guidance and Topic 606 Revenue Recognition.

In June 2016,May 2021, FASB issued ASU 2016-13,2021-04, MeasurementIssuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Credit Loss on financial InstrumentsFreestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options. ASU 2016-13 replaces2021-04 was issued to clarify and reduce diversity in an issuer’s accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options (for example, warrants) that remain equity classified after modification or exchange. The amendments in this Update are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. An entity should apply the current incurred loss impairment methodology withamendments prospectively to modifications or exchanges occurring on or after the expected credit loss impairment model, which requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to estimate expected credit losses over the lifeeffective date of the instrument insteadamendments. Early adoption is permitted for all entities, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity elects to early adopt the amendments in this Update in an interim period, the guidance should be applied as of only when losses are incurred. This standard applies to financial assets measured at amortized cost basis and investments in leases recognized by the lessor. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020 with no impact onbeginning of the consolidated financial statements.fiscal year that includes that interim period.

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

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Applicable for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020:

In August 2020, FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. ASU 2020-06 amends the guidance for convertible instruments and contract in an entity’s own equity by simplifying the accounting in order to reduce the unnecessarily complex and difficult nature of the guidance and its inconsistent application which has been the subject of a significant number of restatements. This standard applies to entities who issue convertible instruments and/or contracts in an entity’s own equity. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and should be adopted as of the beginning of its annual fiscal year.

The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the above standardstandards on its consolidated financial statements. Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of DSG Global, Inc.

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of DSG Global Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 20202021 and 2019,2020, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the years 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, 20202021 and 2019,2020, 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.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the auditing standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated 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. 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’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

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

Critical Audit Matters

Critical audit matters are matters arising form the current year audit of the financial statement 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. We determined that there are no critical audit matters.

Emphasis of Matter

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that DSG Global Inc. will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has a working capital deficit, and has incurred significant operating losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

ConditionsDuring the year ended December 31, 2021, conditions surrounding the coronavirus continuecontinued to rapidly evolve and government authorities have implemented emergency measures to mitigate the spread of the virus. The outbreak and the related mitigation measures may have an adverse impact on global economic conditions as well as on the Company’s business activities.activities going forward. The extent to which the coronavirus may impact the Company’s business activities will depend on future developments, such as the ultimate geographic spread of the disease, the duration of the outbreak, travel restrictions, business disruptions, and the effectiveness of actions taken in Canada and other countries to contain and treat the disease. These events are highly uncertain and as such, the Company cannot determine their financial impact at this time. While certain restrictions are presently in the process of being relaxed, it is unclear when the world will return to the previous normal, if ever. This may adversely impact the expected implementation of the Company’s plans moving forward. The Company has seen a decline in its revenues for the twelve months ending December 31, 2020 of approximately 35.7%, largely as a result of the challenges related to COVID-19.

As at December 31, 2020,2021, the Company has a working capital deficit of $746,341 $2,314,163 and has an accumulated deficit of $51,310,040 $57,694,695 since inception. Furthermore, the Company incurred a net loss of $6,177,099 $6,384,655and used $1,400,086 $5,613,568 of cash flows for operating activities during the twelve months ended December 31, 2020.2021. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These audited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and are expressed in U.S. dollars. These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Certain comparative information has been reclassified to conform with the financial statement presentation adopted in the current year.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of DSG Global Inc. and its subsidiary VTS and its wholly owned subsidiaries DSG UK, Imperium Canada, Imperium, and Imperium,AC Golf Carts, collectively referred to as the “Company”. All intercompany accounts, transactions and profits were eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to revenue recognition, the collectability of accounts receivable, valuation of inventory, useful lives and recoverability of long-lived assets, fair value derivative liabilities, the Company’s incremental borrowing rate, leases and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company 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 the Company may differ materially and adversely from those estimates. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and the effects of revisions are reflected in the consolidated financial statements in the period they are determined.

The Company’s policy for equipment requires judgment in determining whether the present value of future expected economic benefits exceeds capitalized costs. The policy requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions about future economic benefits related to its operations. Estimates and assumptions may change if new information becomes available. If information becomes available suggesting that the recovery of capitalized cost is unlikely, the capitalized cost is written off to the consolidated statement of operations.

The assessment of whether the going concern assumption is appropriate requires management to take into account all available information about the future, which is at least, but is not limited to, 12 months from the date the financial statements are issued. The Company is aware that material uncertainties related to events or conditions may cast substantial doubt upon the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Foreign Currency Translation

The Company’s functional and reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency of VTS is the Canadian dollar. The functional currency of DSG UK is the British pound. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets, liabilities, and items recorded in income arising from transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated at rates of exchange in effect at the date of the transaction. Gains and losses arising on translation or settlement of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in the determination of income.

The accounts of VTS and DSG UK are translated to U.S. dollars using the current rate method. Accordingly, assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the period-end exchange rate while revenues and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates during the period. Related exchange gains and losses are included in a separate component of stockholders’ equity as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

Reportable Segment

The Company has one1 reportable segment. The Company’s activities are interrelated, and each activity is dependent upon and supportive of the other. Accordingly, all significant operating decisions are based on analysis of financial products provided as a single global business.

Revenue Recognition and Warranty Reserve

In May 2014, Financial Account Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”). The Company adopted this standard on a modified retroactive basis on January 1, 2018. No financial statement impact occurred upon adoption.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“Topic 606”), became effective for the Company on January 1, 2018. The Company’s revenue recognition disclosure reflects its updated accounting policies that are affected by this new standard. The Company applied the “modified retrospective” transition method for open contracts for the implementation of Topic 606. As sales are and have been primarily from product sales, delivery and installation, and customer support services and the Company has no significant post-delivery obligations, this new standard did not result in a material recognition of revenue on the Company’s accompanying consolidated financial statements for the cumulative impact of applying this new standard. The Company made no adjustments to its previously reported total revenues, as those periods continue to be presented in accordance with its historical accounting practices under Topic 605, Revenue Recognition.

The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over a product to a customer. Revenue is measured based on the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those products. In instances where final acceptance of the product is specified by the customer, revenue is deferred until all acceptance criteria have been met. Revenues are recognized under Topic 606 in a manner that reasonably reflects the delivery of its products and services to customers in return for expected consideration and includes the following elements:

executed contracts with the Company’s customers that it believes are legally enforceable;
identification of performance obligations in the respective contract;
determination of the transaction price for each performance obligation in the respective contract;
allocation the transaction price to each performance obligation; and
recognition of revenue only when the Company satisfies each performance obligation.

Performance Obligations and Signification Judgments

The Company’s revenue streams can be categorized into the following performance obligations and recognition patterns:

1.Sale, delivery and installation of Tag, Text and Infinity products, along with digital mapping and customer training. The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time when final sign-off on the installation is obtained from the General Manager and/or Director of Golf.
2.Provision of internet connectivity, regular software updates, software maintenance and basic customer support service. The Company recognizes revenue over time, evenly over the term of the service.
3.Sale and delivery of Fairway Rider products. The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time when control transfers to the customer.
4.Sale and delivery of Electric Vehicles. The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time when control transfers to the customer.

Transaction prices for performance obligations are explicitly outlined in relevant agreements, therefore, the Company does not believe that significant judgments are required with respect to the determination of the transaction price, including any variable consideration identified.

Warranty Reserve

The Company accrues for warranty costs, sales returns, and other allowances based on its historical experience. During the years ended December 31, 20202021 and 2019,2020, the Company did not provide a warranty for any of its products sold during those periods. The warranty reserve was $Nil$Nil as at December 31, 20202021 and 2019.2020.

Research and Development

Research and development expenses include payroll, employee benefits, and other headcount-related expenses associated with product development. Research and development expenses also include third-party development and programming costs, localization costs incurred to translate software for international markets, and the amortization of purchased software code and services content. Such costs related to software development are included in research and development expense until the point that technological feasibility is reached. Research and development is expensed and is included in operating expenses.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. The asset and liability method provides that deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred income tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.

71

As of December 31, 20202021 and 2019,2020, the Company did not have any amounts recorded pertaining to uncertain tax positions. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in general and administrative expense. The Company did not incur any penalties or interest during the years ended December 31, 20202021 and 2019. 2020. On December 22, 2017, the U.S. enacted the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“the Tax Act”) which significantly changed U.S. tax law. The Tax Act lowered the Company’s statutory federal income tax rate from a maximum of 39% to a rate of 21%21% effective January 1, 2018. The Company has deferred tax losses and assets and they were adjusted as a result of the change in tax law reducing the federal income tax rate. The Company’s tax years 2015 and forward remain open.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are cash, and trade receivables arising from its normal business activities. The Company places its cash in what it believes to be credit-worthy financial institutions. The Company has a diversified customer base, most of which are in Canada, United States and the United Kingdom. The Company controls credit risk related to trade receivables through credit approvals, credit limits and monitoring procedures. The Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers and, based upon factors surrounding the credit risk, establishes an allowance, if required, for uncollectible accounts and, as a consequence, believes that its accounts receivable credit risk exposure beyond such allowance is limited.

Risks and Uncertainties

The Company is subject to risks from, among other things, competition associated with the industry in general, other risks associated with financing, liquidity requirements, rapidly changing customer requirements, limited operating history, foreign currency exchange rates and the volatility of public markets.

Contingencies

Certain conditions may exist as of the date the consolidated financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company’s management and legal counsel assess such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or un-asserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company’s legal counsel evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or un-asserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought.

If the assessment of a contingency indicates it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potential material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material would be disclosed. Loss contingencies considered to be remote by management are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantee would be disclosed.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and equivalents include cash in hand and cash in demand deposits, certificates of deposit and all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less. At December 31, 20202021 and 2019,2020, there were no uninsured balances for accounts in Canada, the United States and the United Kingdom. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any risks on its cash in bank accounts. At December 31, 20202021 and 2019,2020, the Company did not hold any cash equivalents.

Accounts Receivable

All accounts receivable under standard terms are due thirty (30) days from the date billed. If the funds are not received within thirty (30) days, the customer is contacted to arrange payment. The Company uses the allowance method to account for uncollectable accounts receivable.

Financing Receivables and Guarantees

The Company provides financing arrangements, including operating leases and financed service contracts for certain qualified customers. Lease receivables primarily represent sales-type and direct-financing leases. Leases typically have two- to three-year terms and are collateralized by a security interest in the underlying assets. The Company makes an allowance for uncollectible financing receivables based on a variety of factors, including the risk rating of the portfolio, macroeconomic conditions, historical experience, and other market factors. At December 31, 20202021 and 20192020 management determined that there was no allowance necessary. The Company also provides financing guarantees, which are generally for various third-party financing arrangements to channel partners and other customers. The Company could be called upon to make payment under these guarantees in the event of nonpaymentnon-payment to the third party. As at December 31, 20202021 and 2019,2020, no financing receivables are outstanding.

72

Advertising Costs

The Company expenses all advertising costs as incurred. Advertising and marketing costs were $2,043,735$134,856 and $73,281$2,043,735 for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, and 2019, respectively.

Inventory

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined using the first-in-first-out basis for finished goods. Net realizable value is determined on the basis of anticipated sales proceeds less the estimated selling expenses. Management compares the cost of inventories with the net realizable value and an allowance is made to write down inventories to net realizable value, if lower.

Fixed Assets and Equipment on Lease

Fixed assets and equipment on lease are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Fixed assets and equipment on lease are depreciated using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the asset or the lease term. The estimated useful lives of fixed assets are generally as follows:

SCHEDULE OF ESTIMATED USEFUL LIVES OF EQUIPMENT

Furniture and equipment5-years straight-line
Vehicles5-years straight-line
Computer equipment3-years straight-line
Machinery5-years straight-line
Vehicles5-years straight-line
Computer equipment3-years straight-line
Equipment on lease5-years straight-line

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and are comprised of patents. The patents are amortized straight-line over the estimated useful life of 20 years and are reviewed annually for impairment.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews long-lived assets such as equipment, equipment on lease, and intangible assets with finite useful lives for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstance indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the total of the expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying value of the asset, a loss is recognized for the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the asset.

Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

The Company analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under ASC Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” and ASC Topic 815 “Derivatives and Hedging”.

ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company. ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” defines fair value, and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement that enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for receivables and current liabilities each qualify as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of their fair values because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest. The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:

73

Level 1

Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2

Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

Level 3

Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, trade receivables, trade and other payables, operating lease liabilities, convertible note payable to related party, loans payable, derivative liabilities and convertible notes payable. Except for cash, loans payable, and derivative liabilities, the Company’s financial instruments’ carrying amounts, excluding any unamortized discounts, approximate their fair values due to their short term to maturity. The fair value of long-term operating lease liabilities approximates their carrying value due to minimal changes in interest rates and the Company’s credit risk since initial recognition. Cash and derivative liabilities are measured and recognized at fair value based on level 1 and level 2 inputs, respectively, for all periods presented.

Government Grants

Government grants are recognized where there is reasonable assurance that the grant will be received, and all attached conditions will be complied with. When the grant relates to an expense item, it is recognized as income over the period necessary to match the grant on a systematic basis to the costs that it is intended to compensate. The Canadian Emergency Business Account (“CEBA”) are recognized as government grants. See Note 8 (a) and (b).

Loss per Share

The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the consolidated statement of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. As at December 31, 2020,2021, the Company had 30,083,230 (201929,427,505 (202013,287,548)30,083,230) potentially dilutive shares outstanding.

74

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation”, using the fair value method. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the fair value of stock-based awards. This model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of subjective variables. These subjective variables include but are not limited to the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense in the consolidated statement of operations over the requisite service period. During the years ended December 31, 20202021, and 20192020 there was no stock-based compensation.

Leases

The Company accounts for leases in accordance with ASC 842 “Leases”.

Lessee Arrangements

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating and financing right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are included within fixed assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Right-of-use assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate, based on the information available at the commencement date, in determining the present value of future lease payments. Right-of-use assets include any prepaid lease payments and exclude any lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred. Operating lease expenses are recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, consisting of interest accrued on the lease liability and depreciation of the right-of-use asset. The lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease if it is reasonably certain the Company will exercise that option.

Lessor Arrangements

The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. The Company then determines whether to classify the lease as a sales-type or direct financing lease. At commencement date, a lessor shall derecognize the underlying asset and recognize the net investment in the lease, selling profit or loss arising from the lease, and initial direct directs as an expense if the fair value of the underlying asset is different from it carrying amount. The lease receivable (or net investment in the lease) is included on the consolidated balance sheets. The lease receivable amount is recognized based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term and the present value of the unguaranteed residual asset, except when the lease is a direct financing lease, whereby the net investment in the lease should be reduced by the amount of any selling profit. The unguaranteed residual asset is the amount the lessor expects to derive from the underlying asset following the end of the lease term. The Company uses the rate implicit in the lease agreement at the date of commencement, in determining the present value of the future lease payments and unguaranteed residual asset. Interest income is recognized over the term of the lease and lease payments are recognized against the lease receivable balance when received. Currently, the Company only has sales-type operating leases.

Reclassification

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported results of operations or cash flow.

Recently AdoptedIssued Accounting Pronouncements

Applicable for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021:

In November 2021, FASB issued ASU 2021-10, Disclosures by Business Entities about Government Assistance. ASU 2021-10 was issued to increase the transparency of government assistance including the disclosure of (1) the types of assistance, (2) an entity’s accounting for the assistance, and (3) the effect of the assistance on an entity’s financial statements. Requiring disclosures about government assistance in the notes to financial statements will provide comparable and transparent information to investors and other financial statement users to enable them to understand an entity’s financial results and prospects for future cash flows. The amendment applies to all business entities, except those explicitly excluded. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. Early adoption is permitted.

In July 2021, FASB issued ASU 2021-05, Lessors – Certain Leases with Variable Lease Payments. The amendments in this Update affect lessors with lease contracts that (1) have variable lease payments that do not depend on a reference index or a rate and (2) would have resulted in the recognition of a selling loss at lease commencement if classified as sales-type or direct financing. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, for all entities, and interim periods within those fiscal years for public business entities.

 

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, established Topic 842, Leases, by issuing Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, which requires lessors to classify leases as a sales-type, direct financing, or operating lease and requires lessees to recognize leases on-balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. Topic 842 was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-01, Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842; ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases; and ASU No. 2018-11, Targeted Improvements.

The Company adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2019 and elected to use the modified retrospective for transition. The Company elected the following practical expedients:

Transition method practical expedient – permits the Company to use the effective date as the date of initial application. Upon adoption, the Company did not have a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. Financial information and disclosures for periods before January 1, 2019 were not updated.
Package of practical expedients – permits the Company not to reassess under the new standard its prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification, and initial direct costs. This allowed the Company to continue classifying its leases at transition in substantially the same manner.
Single component practical expedient – permits the Company to not separate lease and non-lease components of leases. Upon transition, rental income, expense reimbursement, and other were aggregated into a single line within rental and other revenues on the condensed consolidated statement of operations.
Short-term lease practical expedient – permits the Company not to recognize leases with a term equal to or less than 12 months.

Lessee Accounting

The new standard requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases are classified as finance or operating at inception, with classification affecting the pattern and recording of expenses in the statement of operations. Upon transition the Company recognized lease assets and lease liabilities principally for its office lease. When measuring lease liabilities for leases that were classified as operating leases, the Company discounted lease payments using its incremental borrowing rate at January 1, 2019. The weighted average incremental borrowing rate applied was 11.98%. Refer to Notes 5 and 11.

Lessor Accounting

The new standard remained largely unchanged from that applied under previous GAAP. The majority of operating leases should remain classified as operating leases and should continue to recognize lease income on a generally straight-line basis over the lease term. The new standard made changes to lessor accounting guidance to align with lessee accounting guidance and Topic 606 Revenue Recognition.

In June 2016,May 2021, FASB issued ASU 2016-13,2021-04, MeasurementIssuer’s Accounting for Certain Modifications or Exchanges of Credit Loss on financial InstrumentsFreestanding Equity-Classified Written Call Options. ASU 2016-13 replaces2021-04 was issued to clarify and reduce diversity in an issuer’s accounting for modifications or exchanges of freestanding equity-classified written call options (for example, warrants) that remain equity classified after modification or exchange. The amendments in this Update are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. An entity should apply the current incurred loss impairment methodology withamendments prospectively to modifications or exchanges occurring on or after the expected credit loss impairment model, which requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to estimate expected credit losses over the lifeeffective date of the instrument insteadamendments. Early adoption is permitted for all entities, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity elects to early adopt the amendments in this Update in an interim period, the guidance should be applied as of only when losses are incurred. This standard applies to financial assets measured at amortized cost basis and investments in leases recognized by the lessor. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020 with no impact onbeginning of the consolidated financial statements.fiscal year that includes that interim period.

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

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Applicable for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020:

In August 2020, FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. ASU 2020-06 amends the guidance for convertible instruments and contract in an entity’s own equity by simplifying the accounting in order to reduce the unnecessarily complex and difficult nature of the guidance and its inconsistent application which has been the subject of a significant number of restatements. This standard applies to entities who issue convertible instruments and/or contracts in an entity’s own equity. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023. Early adoption is permitted, but no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020 and should be adopted as of the beginning of its annual fiscal year.

The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the above standardstandards on its consolidated financial statements. Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the Securities and Exchange Commission did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Indemnifications

In the normal course of business, the Company indemnifies other parties, including customers, lessors, and parties to other transactions with the Company, with respect to certain matters. The Company has agreed to hold the other parties harmless against losses arising from a breach of representations or covenants, or out of intellectual property infringement or other claims made against certain parties. These agreements may limit the time within which an indemnification claim can be made and the amount of the claim. In addition, the Company has entered into indemnification agreements with its officers and directors, and the Company’s bylaws contain similar indemnification obligations to the Company’s agents.

The following are the components of income before income tax reflected in the Statement of Operations for the years ended December 31, 20202021 and 2019:2020:

Effective tax rate  21.0%  21.0%  21.0%  21.0%

Deferred income taxes arise from temporary differences between the tax and financial statement recognition of revenue and expense. In evaluating the ability to recover the deferred tax assets within the jurisdiction from which they arise, the Company considered all available positive and negative evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial operations. In projecting future taxable income, the Company began with historical results adjusted for changes in accounting policies and incorporates assumptions including the amount of future pretax operating income, the reversal of temporary differences, and the implementation of feasible and prudent tax planning strategies. These assumptions require significant judgment about the forecasts of future taxable income and are consistent with the plans and estimate the Company are using to manage the underlying businesses. In evaluating the objective evidence that historical results provide, the Company consider three years of cumulative operating income (loss).

As of December 31, 2020, the Company had aggregate net operating losses of $51,310,040 (2019$57,694,695 (2020 - $45,132,941)$51,310,040) to offset future taxable income in the United States and the United Kingdom. The deferred tax assets at December 31, 20202021 were fully reserved. Management believes it is more likely than not that these assets will not be realized in the near future.

The phrase “disclosure controls and procedures” refers to controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, such as this Annual Report on Form 10-K, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC. Disclosure controls and procedures are also designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer, or CEO, and chief financial officer, or CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decision regarding required disclosure.

Our management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a- 15(e) and 15d- 15(e) under the Exchange Act), as of December 31, 2020, the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Based on such evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that as of December 31, 2020, our disclosure controls and procedures were designed at a reasonable assurance level and were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Our management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, has assessed the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2020. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013 Framework). Based on this evaluation, our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2020.

This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm on our internal control over financial reporting due to an exemption established by the JOBS Act for “emerging growth companies.”

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

Coastal alleges that the Company failed to deliver shares of common stock underlying the Coastal notes, and thus giving rise to an event of default. Coastal seeks damages in excess of $250,000 for breach of contact damages, and legal fees incurred by Coastal with respect to the lawsuit. On June 13, 2017, Coastal filed a complaint and motion for a preliminary injunction seeking conversion of the principal amount of a note issued by it to the Company into common stock of the Company. The Court issued an Order to Show Cause as to why a preliminary injunction should not be issued on June 27, 2017, and the Company opposed Coastal’s motion. A hearing on the motion for preliminary injunction was held on July 26, 2017. For the following reasons, the Court denied Coastal’s motion for a preliminary injunction.

JSJ seeks damages in excess of $200,000 but not more than $1,000,000, which consists of the principal amount of the note, default interest, and legal fees incurred by JSJ with respect to the lawsuit.

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our executive officers and directors and persons who own more than 10% of our common stock to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial statements of beneficial ownership, reports of changes in ownership and annual reports concerning their ownership of our common stock and other equity securities, on Forms 3, 4 and 5 respectively. Executive officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders are required by the SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports that they file.

Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms received by us, or written representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that during fiscal year ended December 31, 2020, all filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than 10% percent beneficial owners were complied with.

Our directors are appointed for a one-year term to hold office until the next annual general meeting of our stockholders or until removed from office in accordance with our bylaws. Our officers are appointed by our Board of Directors and Business Conducthold office until removed by the Board of Directors.

Board Leadership Structure

The Board does not have an express policy regarding the separation of the roles of Chief Executive Officer and Director as the Board believes it is in the best interests of the Company to make that determination based on the position and direction of the Company and the membership of the Board. The Board has adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines (the “Guidelines”) to assist itdesignated Robert Singerling as Lead Independent Director. Currently, Robert Silzer serves as both the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and a Director. As Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Silzer is involved in the exerciseday-to-day operations of its responsibilities. These Guidelines reflect the Board’s commitmentCompany and also provides strategic guidance on the Company’s operations. The Board believes Mr. Silzer’s experience and knowledge are valuable in the oversight of both the Company’s operations as well as with respect to monitor the effectivenessoverall oversight of policy and decision making boththe Company at the Board level. The Board believes that this leadership structure is appropriate as Mr. Silzer is intimately knowledgeable with the Company’s current and planned operations.

Role of the Board and the Audit Committee in Risk Oversight

While management is charged with the day-to-day management of risks that the Company faces, the Board of Directors, and the Audit Committee of the Board, have been responsible for oversight of risk management. The full Board, and the Audit Committee since it was formed, have responsibility for general oversight of risks facing the Company. Specifically, the Audit Committee reviews and assesses the adequacy of the Company’s risk management policies and procedures with regard to identification of the Company’s principal risks, both financial and non-financial, and review updates on these risks from the Chief Financial Officer and the Chief Executive Officer. The Audit Committee also reviews and assesses the adequacy of the implementation of appropriate systems to mitigate and manage the principal risks.

Review and Approval of Transactions with Related Parties

The Board of Directors adopted a policy to comply with Item 404 of Regulation S-K of the Exchange Act as well as the Nasdaq Rules requiring that disinterested directors approve transactions with related parties which are not market-based transactions.

Generally, the Board of Directors will approve transactions only to the extent the disinterested directors believe that they are in the best interests of the Company and on terms that are fair and reasonable (in the judgment of the disinterested directors) to the Company.

Audit Committee

The Board of Directors established the Audit Committee on April 1, 2021,   Our Audit Committee charter compliies with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Exchange Act and Nasdaq Rule 5605. The Audit Committee was established to oversee the Company’s corporate accounting and financial reporting processes and audits of its financial statements. The members of our Audit Committee are Michael Leemhuis, James Singerling, and Stephen Johnston. Mr. Johnston serves as chair of the Audit Committee. The Board of Directors determined that all members of our Audit Committee were independent under SEC Rule 10A-3(b)(1) and Nasdaq Rule 5605(a)(2). The Board has determined that all current members of the Audit Committee are “financially literate” as interpreted by the Board in its business judgment. Stephen Johnston has been qualified as an audit committee financial expert, as defined in the applicable rules of the SEC.

The Audit Committee meets periodically with our independent accountants and management to review the scope and results of the annual audit and to review our financial statements and related reporting matters prior to the submission of the financial statements to the Board. In addition, the Audit Committee meets with the independent auditors at least on a quarterly basis to review and discuss the annual audit or quarterly review of our financial statements.

We have established an Audit Committee Charter that deals with the establishment of the Audit Committee and sets out its duties and responsibilities. The Audit Committee is required to review and reassess the adequacy of the Audit Committee Charter on an annual basis. The Audit Committee Charter is available on our Company website at www.dsgglobal.com and furnished as exhibit 99.2 of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

When evaluating director candidates, the Governance and Nominating Committee may consider several factors, including relevant experience, independence, commitment, compatibility with the Chief Executive Officer and the Board’s culture, prominence and understanding of the Company’s business, as well as any other factors the Governance and Nominating Committee deems relevant at the time. The Governance and Nominating Committee makes a recommendation to the full Board as to any person it believes should be nominated by our Board, and our Board determines the nominees after considering the recommendation and report of the Governance and Nominating Committee. The Governance and Nominating Committee Charter is available on our Company website at www.dsgglobal.com and furnished as exhibit 99.4 of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

Compensation Committee

The members of our Compensation Committee are Ms. Cookerly, and Messrs. Singerling, Johnston and Leemhuis. Mr. Singerling serves as chair of the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee is responsible for making recommendations to the Board regarding the compensation of executive officers, to review and administer our Company’s equity compensation plans, to review, discuss, and evaluate at least annually the relationship between risk management level,policies and practices and compensation, as well as oversee the Company’s engagement with shareholders and proxy advisors.

In the event that our Nasdaq listing application is approved, effective upon the uplisting of our common stock to Nasdaq (which may not occur), the Compensation Committee will be in compliance with Nasdaq Rule 5605(d). The Compensation Committee consists of only independent directors in accordance with Nasdaq Rule 5605(a)(2) and all non-employee directors for purposes of Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act. The compensation of our CEO, Mr. Silzer, must be determined by the Compensation Committee and the CEO may not be present during voting or deliberations for his compensation.

Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial ExpertFamily Relationships

Our board of directors has determined that it does not have a member of its audit committee that qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K, and is “independent” as the term is used in Item 7(d)(3)(iv) of Schedule 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

We believe that our board of directors is capable of analyzing and evaluating our consolidated financial statements and understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. We believe that retaining an independent director who would qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” would be overly costly and burdensome and is not warranted in our circumstances given the early stagesThere are no family relationships among any of our development and the fact that we have not generated any material revenues to date. In addition, we currently do not have nominating, compensationdirectors or audit committees or committees performing similar functions nor do we have a written nominating, compensation or audit committee charter. Our sole officer does not believe that it is necessary to have such committees because believes the functions of such committees can be adequately performed by the members of our Board of Directors.officers.
