NOTE 1SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ORGANIZATION

 

Hunt for Travel, Inc.Arista Financial Corp. (the "Company"“Company”) was incorporated in Nevada on December 15, 2009 to design and market enrichment excursions for U.S. travelers. The enrichment component of these trips can be educational, informational or experiential and is tailored to the travelers’ specific interests and tastes. Enrichment travel can also be referred to as adventure travel.

2009. Effective February 21, 2012, the Company filed with the State of Nevada a Certificate of Amendment to the Articles of Incorporation changing the Company’s name from Hunt for Travel, Inc. to Praco Corporation. At the same timeCorporation (“Praco”) and on January 2, 2018, the Company ceased being a travel agency and became a Public Shell.

The Company is available for another operational companychanged its name to acquire.Arista Financial Corp.

 

On February 22,April 19, 2017, the Company entered into a Letter of Intent (“LOI”)the Share Exchange Agreement with Arista Capital LTD.Ltd. (“Arista”Arista Capital”) wherebyand the shareholders of Arista will acquire eighty percent (80%Capital Shareholders (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) ofpursuant to which the issuedCompany agreed, subject to the terms and outstandingconditions in the Share Exchange Agreement, to exchange newly issued shares of the Company.Company for shares of Arista Capital held by the Arista Capital Shareholders, with Arista Capital becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Transaction”). The closing of the Transaction (the “Closing”) was to take place sixty days after the execution of this Agreement. On July 18, 2017, the parties entered into the First Addendum to the Share Exchange Agreement, pursuant to which the closing date for the Transaction was scheduled for September 15, 2017. In connection with this First Addendum, Arista Capital paid the Company a $15,000 non-refundable deposit, and had the right to extend the closing date in intervals of thirty days upon payment of an additional non-refundable deposit of $10,000 for each requested extension interval. In November 2017, Arista Capital paid the Company an additional $10,000 non-refundable deposit. The Closing occurred on December 14, 2017. At Closing, Arista Capital paid the Company $72,500 which was used to pay all remaining outstanding liabilities of Praco.

Prior to Closing, the Company restructured its equity ownership via a reverse stock split at a ratio of 13.2 to 1 which reduced the number of shares of common stock outstanding to 522,558 shares followed by the issuance of an additional 95,109 shares to certain Praco Shareholders so that there were 617,667 shares outstanding immediately prior to the Closing. On the date of the Exchange Agreement, the fair value of the 617,667 shares retained by Praco shareholders was approximately $401,000, or $0.65 per common share, based on the quoted closing price of the Company common shares. Therefore, the Praco shareholders received aggregate consideration for the above,acquisition of $498,500. At Closing, the Company exchanged two shares of its common stock for each outstanding share of Arista will pay $75,000common stock. This resulted in the issuance at Closing of an additional 2,470,666 shares of common stock which consisted of 2,084,000 common shares issued to Arista Shareholders and will assume all386,666 common shares issued to certain Arista Capital noteholders upon the conversion of convertible notes payable. Accordingly, Arista Capital Shareholders owned in the aggregate approximately 80% of the liabilitiesoutstanding common stock of the Company, with the Praco Shareholders owning the remaining approximately 20% of the Company and Arista Capital became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. At the time of the closing, under the Exchange Agreement, the Company, then known as Praco Corporation, was not engaged in any business activity and was considered a shell.

Also, at Closing, the Praco Shareholders were issued warrants for 283,749 common shares on a pro-rata basis exercisable at $2.00 per share and subject to the same terms and conditions as the warrants currently held by the Arista warrant holders except without a cashless exercise option. On the date of the Exchange Agreement, the Company calculated the fair value of the 283,749 warrants using the Black-Sholes option pricing method. The fair value of the warrants was approximately $108,000. In addition, immediately following the Closing, the Company exchanged each outstanding Arista warrant for new warrants issued by the Company entitling the holder to purchase an equal number of shares of the Company’s common stock as the number of Arista shares they were entitled to purchase upon exercise, subject to the same terms and conditions as the Arista Capital warrants except without a cashless exercise option. Also, at Closing, the Company exchanged each outstanding Arista Capital convertible note into a convertible note issued by the Company convertible into an equal amount of shares of the Company’s common stock as the number of Arista Capital shares into which such notes were convertible, subject to the same terms and conditions as the convertible notes currently held by Arista Capital convertible noteholders. As a result of such exchange offers, at Closing, the Company issued warrants to purchase 935,000 shares of Common Stock and convertible notes convertible into 199,999 shares of Common Stock.

As of December 31, 2017, the Company has recapitalized the Company to give effect to the Share Exchange Agreement discussed above. Under generally accepted accounting principles, the acquisition by the Company of Arista Capital is considered to be capital transactions in substance, rather than a business combination. That is, the acquisition is equivalent, to the acquisition by Arista Capital of the Company, then known as Praco Corporation, with the issuance of stock by Arista Capital for the net assets of the Company. This transaction is contingent uponreflected as a recapitalization, and is accounted for as a change in capital structure. Accordingly, the accounting for the acquisition is identical to that resulting from a reverse acquisition. Under reverse takeover accounting, the comparative historical financial statements of the Company, andas the legal acquirer, are those of the accounting acquirer, Arista executing a formal “Merger Agreement” which is expectedCapital. Accordingly, the Company’s financial statements prior to occur on or about March 31, 2017. Thethe closing of the transaction is expected to occur sixty (60) days fromreverse acquisition, reflect only the executionbusiness of the Merger Agreement.Arista Capital.

 

The LOI may be terminated by (a) mutual consent of the parties, (b) by the Company if (i) a definitive Merger Agreement is not executed and delivered by the parties, (ii) the Merger Agreement is enjoined by a court or any governmental body, or (iii) by Arista if they are not satisfied with the results of their due diligence investigation of the Company.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MARCH 31, 2018

 

The accompanying unauditedconsolidated financial statements reflect the recapitalization of the stockholders’ deficit as if the transactions occurred as of the beginning of the first period presented. Thus, the 2,000,000 shares of common stock issued to the former Arista Capital stockholders are deemed to be outstanding from December 31, 2015.

Arista Capital was formed on June 10, 2014 as a Nevada corporation. The Company is a finance company that provides financing to other very small finance companies that do not have significant access to the capital markets. Typically, the Company does this by acquiring lease portfolios from such lenders at a purchase price that yields the Company an annual return and these lenders continue to service the portfolios purchased by the Company. The Company is currently focused on leases for trucks and construction equipment.

Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 include estimates of allowances for uncollectible finance leases receivable, the useful life of property and equipment, estimates of current and deferred income taxes and deferred tax valuation allowances, the fair value of equity based transactionsequipment held for sale, and the valuationfair value of deferred tax assets.non-cash equity transactions.

ASU 2014-15issuance date of this report. Management cannot provide assurance that the Company will ultimately achieve profitable operations or become cash flow positive, or raise additional debt and/or equity capital. Management believes that its capital resources are not currently adequate to continue operating and maintaining its business strategy for a period of twelve months from the issuance date of this report. Although the Company has historically raised capital from the issuance of promissory notes, there is effective forno assurance that it will be able to continue to do so. Management believes that’s its ability to attract debt and equity financing in the annual period ending after December 15, 2016capital markets will be greatly enhanced by becoming a public reporting company. If the Company is unable to raise additional capital or secure additional lending in the near future, management expects that the Company will need to curtail or cease operations.

Fair value of financial instruments and fair value measurements

The Company analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under the Financial Accounting Standard Board’s (the “FASB”) accounting standard for such instruments. Under this standard, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is currently assessingsignificant to the impact of ASU 2014-15fair value measurement. The Company did not identify any assets or liabilities that are required to be presented on its financial statements.the balance sheet at fair value in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820.

 

The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash, financing lease receivables, due from lease service provider, accrued interest receivables, prepaid expenses, notes payable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, accrued interest payable and amounts due to related party approximate their fair market value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments. The Company does not account for any instruments at fair value using level 3 valuation.

ASC 825-10 “Financial Instruments, allows entities to voluntarily choose to measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value (fair value option). The fair value option may be elected on an instrument-by-instrument basis and is irrevocable, unless a new election date occurs. If the fair value option is elected for an instrument, unrealized gains and losses for that instrument should be reported in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The Company did not elect to apply the fair value option to any outstanding instruments.

Credit risk and concentrations

The Company maintains its cash in bank and financial institution deposits that at times may exceed federally insured limits. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, cash in bank did not exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts through March 31, 2018.

Financing leases receivable represent amounts due from lessees in various industries, related to equipment on direct financing leases. Currently, the Company relies on one source to acquire financing leases and to service such leases. The Company believes that other lenders are available to acquire lease portfolios if the Company cannot acquire additional financing lease receivable portfolios from its single source. Additionally, as of March 31, 2018, the Company’s portfolio of financing leases consists of five leases. A default on or loss of any of these leases would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition.

Cash and cash equivalent

For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the purchase date and money market accounts to be cash equivalents. At March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company did not have any cash equivalents.

Financing leases receivable

Financing leases receivable are recorded at the aggregate future minimum lease payments, estimated unguaranteed residual value of the leased equipment less unearned income. Residual values, which are reviewed periodically, represent the estimated amount the Company expects to receive at lease termination from the disposition of the leased equipment. Actual residual values realized could differ from these estimates. The unearned income is recognized in revenues in the statements of operations over the lease term, in a manner that produces a constant rate of return on the lease. Financing leases receivable due after twelve months from the balance sheet date are reflected as a long-term asset. Financing leases receivables are periodically evaluated based on individual credit worthiness of customers. Based on this evaluation, the Company records allowance for estimated losses on these receivables.

Property and equipment

Property are stated at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, which range from three to five years. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the useful life or lease term including scheduled renewal terms. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in income in the year of disposition. The Company examines the possibility of decreases in the value of these assets when events or changes in circumstances reflect the fact that their recorded value may not be recoverable. 

Impairment of long-lived assets

In accordance with ASC Topic 360, the Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable, or at least annually. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s estimated fair value and its book value.

(UNAUDITED)Revenue recognition

 

NOTE 2GOING CONCERN

Income from direct financing lease transactions is reported using the financing method of accounting, in which the Company’s investment in the leased property is reported as a receivable from the lessee to be recovered through future rentals. The interest income portion of each rental payment is calculated so as to generate a constant rate of return on the net receivable outstanding. Allowances for losses on direct financing leases are typically established based on historical charge-off and collection experience and the collectability of specifically identified lessees and billed and unbilled receivables. Direct financing leases are charged off to the allowance as they are deemed uncollectible. Direct financing leases are generally placed in a nonaccrual status (i.e., no revenue is recognized) and deemed impaired when payments are more than 90 days past due. Additionally, management periodically reviews the creditworthiness of all direct finance lessees with payments outstanding less than 90 days. Based upon management’s judgment, the related direct financing leases may be placed on nonaccrual status. Leases placed on nonaccrual status are only returned to an accrual status when the account has been brought current and management believes recovery of the remaining unpaid lease payments is probable. Until such time, all payments received are applied only against outstanding principal balances.

 

As reflectedIncome taxes

The Company accounts for income tax using the liability method prescribed by ASC 740, “Income Taxes”. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect in the accompanyingyear in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to offset deferred tax assets if based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized as income or loss in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company follows the accounting guidance for uncertainty in income taxes using the provisions of ASC 740“Income Taxes”. Using that guidance, tax positions initially need to be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. As of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Company has minimal operations, used cashhad no uncertain tax positions that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in operating activitiesthe financial statements. Tax years that remain subject to examination are the years ending on and after December 31, 2014. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain income tax positions in other expense. However, no such interest and penalties were recorded as of $18,675March 31, 2018.

Stock-based compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of the Share-Based Payment Topic of ASC 718 which requires recognition in the financial statements of the cost of employee and hasdirector services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award.

Pursuant to ASC 505-50 –“Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees”, all share-based payments to non-employees, including grants of stock options, are recognized in the consolidated financial statements as compensation expense over the service period of the consulting arrangement or until performance conditions are expected to be met. Using a Black-Scholes valuation model, the Company periodically reassessed the fair value of non-employee options until service conditions are met, which generally aligns with the vesting period of the options, and the Company adjusts the expense recognized in the consolidated financial statements accordingly.

Basic and diluted loss per share

Pursuant to ASC 260-10-45, basic loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of $59,968shares of common stock outstanding for the six months ended Decemberperiods presented. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive common shares consist of common stock issuable for stock warrants (using the treasury stock method) and common shares issuable upon the conversion of convertible notes payable (using the as-if converted method). These common stock equivalents may be dilutive in the future.

Related parties also has a working capital deficit and stockholders’ deficit of $396,358 as of December 31, 2016. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The abilityinclude principal owners of the Company, its management, members of the immediate families of principal owners of the Company and its management and other parties with which the Company may deal with if one party controls or can significantly influence the management or operating policies of the other to continue as a going concern is dependent onan extent that one of the Company’s ability to raise additional capital and implement its business plan.

Overview

We are a finance company that provides financing to other small finance companies that do not have significant access to the capital markets. Typically, we do this by acquiring lease portfolios from such lenders at a purchase price that yields us an annual return and these lenders continue to service the portfolios purchased by us. We are currently focused on leases for trucks and construction equipment.

 

Share Exchange

Praco Corporation (the “Company”), a Nevada corporation was incorporated on December 15, 2009 as Hunt for Travel, Inc. to design and market travel excursions featuring entertainment, adventure, intellectual stimulation and access to experts on topics related to the destinations they visit. The Company is now a “shell company” as defined in Rule 12b-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act, as amended, as we have no operations. The Company no longer operates in the travel industry sector.

The Company is available for another operational company to acquire. 

On MayApril 19, 2015, Carolyn Hunter, the Company’s sole officer and sole director, in accordance with the by-laws of the Company, increased the number of members on the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) to four members and named three new members to the Board. Ms. Hunter named R. Scott Williams, David Callan, and Alan Cohen as new members of the Board, all of whom have accepted their appointments.

On February 22, 2017, the Company entered into a Letter of Intent (“LOI”)the Share Exchange Agreement with Arista Capital LTD.Ltd. (“Arista”Arista Capital”) wherebyand the shareholders of Arista will acquire eighty percent (80%Capital Shareholders (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) ofpursuant to which the issuedCompany agreed, subject to the terms and outstandingconditions in the Share Exchange Agreement, to exchange newly issued shares of the Company.Company for shares of Arista Capital held by the Arista Capital Shareholders, with Arista Capital becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Transaction”). The closing of the Transaction (the “Closing”) was to take place sixty days after the execution of this Agreement. On July 18, 2017, the parties entered into the First Addendum to the Share Exchange Agreement, pursuant to which the closing date for the Transaction was scheduled for September 15, 2017. In connection with this First Addendum, Arista Capital paid the Company a $15,000 non-refundable deposit, and had the right to extend the closing date in intervals of thirty days upon payment of an additional non-refundable deposit of $10,000 for each requested extension interval. In November 2017, Arista Capital paid the Company an additional $10,000 non-refundable deposit. The Closing occurred on December 14, 2017. At Closing, Arista Capital paid the Company $72,500 which was used to pay all remaining outstanding liabilities of Praco.

Prior to Closing, the Company restructured its equity ownership via a reverse stock split at a ratio of 13.2 to 1 which reduced the number of shares of common stock outstanding to 522,558 shares followed by the issuance of an additional 95,109 shares to certain Praco shareholders so that there were 617,667 shares outstanding immediately prior to the Closing. On the date of the Share Exchange Agreement, the fair value of the 617,667 shares retained by Praco shareholders was approximately $401,000, or $0.65 per common share, based on the quoted closing price of the Company common shares. Therefore, the Praco shareholders received aggregate consideration for the above,acquisition of $498,500. At Closing, the Company exchanged two shares of its common stock for each outstanding share of Arista will pay $75,000common stock. This resulted in the issuance at Closing of an additional 2,470,666 shares of common stock which consisted of 2,084,000 common shares issued to Arista Shareholders and will assume all386,666 common shares issued to certain Arista Capital noteholders upon the conversion of convertible notes payable. Accordingly, Arista Capital Shareholders owned in the aggregate approximately 80% of the liabilitiesoutstanding common stock of the Company. This transaction is contingent uponCompany, with the Praco Shareholders owning the remaining approximately 20% of the Company and Arista executingCapital became a formal “Merger Agreement” which is expected to occur on or about March 31, 2017. The closingwholly-owned subsidiary of the transaction is expected to occur sixty (60) days fromCompany. At the executiontime of the Merger Agreement.closing, under the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company, then known as Praco Corporation, was not engaged in any business activity and was considered a shell.

Also, at Closing, the Praco shareholders were issued warrants for 283,749 common shares on a pro-rata basis exercisable at $2.00 per share and subject to the same terms and conditions as the warrants currently held by the Arista warrant holders except without a cashless exercise option. On the date of the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company calculated the fair value of the 283,749 warrants using the Black-Sholes option pricing method. The fair value of the warrants was approximately $108,000. In addition, immediately following the Closing, the Company exchanged each outstanding Arista warrant for new warrants issued by the Company entitling the holder to purchase an equal number of shares of the Company’s common stock as the number of Arista shares they were entitled to purchase upon exercise, subject to the same terms and conditions as the Arista Capital warrants except without a cashless exercise option. Also, at Closing, the Company exchanged each outstanding Arista Capital convertible note into a convertible note issued by the Company convertible into an equal amount of shares of the Company’s common stock as the number of Arista Capital shares into which such notes were convertible, subject to the same terms and conditions as the convertible notes currently held by Arista Capital convertible noteholders. As a result of such exchange offers, at Closing, the Company issued warrants to purchase 935,000 shares of Common Stock and convertible notes convertible into 199,999 shares of Common Stock.

Limited Operating History

We have generated no independent financial history and have not previously demonstrated that we will be able to expand our business. Our business is subject to risks inherent in growing an enterprise including limited capital resources.

Results of Operations

For the Three Months Ended December 31, 2016 Compared to the Three Months Ended December 31, 2015

For the three months ended December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we had $0 in revenue. Net loss for the three months ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 totaled $41,044 and $20,491, respectively. For each of the respective periods, professional fees amounted to $12,170 and $10,740; general and administrative expenses amounted to $28,874 and $3,866, and interest expense amounted to $-0- and $5,885. The increase in general and administrative expenses are directly related to accrued compensation for the CEO/president and one of the Directors. The increase in net loss was primarily due to an increase in professional fees and general and administrative expenses.

For the Six Months Ended December 31, 2016 Compared to the Six Months Ended December 31, 2015

For the six months ended December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we had $0 in revenue. Net loss for the six months ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 totaled $59,968 and $47,336, respectively. For each of the respective periods, professional fees amounted to $30,275 and $27,770; general and administrative expenses amounted to $29,352 and $8,147, and interest expense amounted to $23 and $11,419. For the period ended December 31, 2015, interest expense related to imputed interest. The increase in general and administrative expenses are directly related to accrued compensation for the CEO/president and one of the Directors. The increase in net loss was primarily due to an increase in professional fees and general and administrative expenses.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

As of December 31, 2016, we had cash of $1,216 as compared to $29 as of June 30, 2016. The Company also has a working capital deficit and stockholders’ deficit of $396,358 as of December 31, 2016.

The ability of the Company to realize its business plan is dependent upon, among other things, the closing of the merger with Arista. If the closing of the merger does not occur, the Company does not anticipate generating any revenues until it can be acquired by another operational company.

If the closing of the merger with Arista does not occur, we believe that our expenses will be very limited until the we can find another operational company to acquire or merge with us. As a result, we will have to raise funds by obtaining loans from related parties or issue common stock in exchange for cash.  However, we cannot make any assurance that we will be able to receive funds. If the closing on the merger never occurs, we may have difficulty continuing our daily operations. Should this occur, we will attempt to combine with another entity. If this is not possible, we may be forced to suspend or cease operations.

These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. 

1015 

 

 

As of December 31, 2017, the Company has recapitalized the Company to give effect to the Share Exchange Agreement discussed above. Under generally accepted accounting principles, the acquisition by the Company of Arista is considered to be capital transactions in substance, rather than a business combination. That is, the acquisition is equivalent, to the acquisition by Arista of the Company, then known as Praco Corporation, with the issuance of stock by Arista for the net assets of the Company. This transaction is reflected as a recapitalization, and is accounted for as a change in capital structure. Accordingly, the accounting for the acquisition is identical to that resulting from a reverse acquisition. Under reverse takeover accounting, the comparative historical financial statements of the Company, as the legal acquirer, are those of the accounting acquirer, Arista Capital. Accordingly, the Company’s financial statements prior to the closing of the reverse acquisition, reflect only business of the Arista Capital.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the recapitalization of the stockholders’ deficit as if the transactions occurred as of the beginning of the first periods presented.

Cash FlowsCritical Accounting Policies

 

The following table summarized the sourcesdiscussion and usesanalysis of cash for the periods then ended.

  Six Months Ended
December 31, 2016
  Six Months Ended

Net cash provided by financing activities  19,862   40,000 
Cash, end of period $1,216  $117 

Net Cash Used in Operating Activities

Our cash used in operating activities was $18,675 for the six-month period ended December 31, 2016 as compared to $40,836 for the same period ended 2015. The primary reason for the different in cash flows used in operating activities decreasing from the prior period is the Company has larger accounts payableour financial condition and accrued expense balances than the period.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

We did not use cash in investing activities for the six-month period ended December 31, 2016 and 2015.

Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities

Our cash provided by financing activities was $19,862 for the six-month period ended December 31, 2016 as compared to $40,000 for the same period ended 2015. The primary reason for the different in cash flows provided by financing activities is that in the current period the Company was not lent as much from related parties to pay downresults of operations are based upon our accounts payable and accrued expense balances. 

Critical Accounting Policies

Theunaudited financial statements, and accompanying footnotes included in this reportwhich have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States with certain amount based on management’s best(“GAAP”). The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments. To determine appropriatejudgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Management continually evaluates such estimates, including those related to allowances for uncollectible finance receivables, income taxes, and the valuation of equity transactions. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions 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 that are not readily availableapparent from other sources,sources. Any future changes to these estimates and assumptions could cause a material change to our reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Management believes the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements.

Going Concern

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As reflected in our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, for the three months ended March 31, 2018, we had a net loss of $231,754 and used cash in operating activities of $60,326, respectively. Additionally, we had an accumulated deficit of $1,166,247 and had a stockholders’ deficit of $528,181 at March 31, 2018, respectively, and had minimal revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Management believes that these matters raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months from the issuance date of this report. Management cannot provide assurance that we will ultimately achieve profitable operations or become cash flow positive, or raise additional debt and/or equity capital. Management believes that its capital resources are not currently adequate to continue operating and maintaining its business strategy for a period of twelve months from the issuance date of this report. Although we have historically raised capital from the issuance of promissory notes, there is no assurance that it will be able to continue to do so. Management believes that its ability to attract debt and equity financing in the capital markets has been enhanced by becoming a public reporting company. If we are unable to raise additional capital or secure additional lending in the near future, management uses assumptionsexpects that we will need to curtail or cease operations. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.

Financing leases receivable are recorded at the aggregate future minimum lease payments, estimated unguaranteed residual value of the leased equipment less unearned income. Residual values, which are reviewed periodically, represent the estimated amount we expect to receive at lease termination from the disposition of the leased equipment. Actual residual values realized could differ from these estimates. The unearned income is recognized in revenues in the statements of operations over the lease term, in a manner that produces a constant rate of return on the lease. Financing leases receivable due after twelve months from the balance sheet date are reflected as a long-term asset. Financing leases receivables are periodically evaluated based on individual creditworthiness of customers. Based on this evaluation, we record an allowance for estimated losses on these receivables.

Revenue recognition

Income from direct financing lease transactions is reported using the financing method of accounting, in which our investment in the leased property is reported as a receivable from the lessee to be recovered through future rentals. The interest income portion of each rental payment is calculated so as to generate a constant rate of return on the net receivable outstanding. Allowances for losses on direct financing leases are typically established based on historical charge-off and collection experience and the collectability of specifically identified lessees and billed and unbilled receivables. Direct financing leases are charged off to the allowance as they are deemed uncollectible. Direct financing leases are generally placed in a nonaccrual status (i.e., no revenue is recognized) and deemed impaired when payments are more than 90 days past due. Additionally, management periodically reviews the creditworthiness of all direct finance lessees with payments outstanding less than 90 days. Based upon management’s judgment, the related direct financing leases may be placed on nonaccrual status. Leases placed on nonaccrual status are only returned to an accrual status when the account has been brought current and management believes recovery of the remaining unpaid lease payments is probable. Until such time, all payments received are applied only against outstanding principal balances.

Income taxes

We account for income tax using the liability method prescribed by ASC 740, “Income Taxes”. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect in the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. We record a valuation allowance to offset deferred tax assets if based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized as income or loss in the period that includes the enactment date.

We follow the accounting guidance for uncertainty in income taxes using the provisions of ASC 740“Income Taxes”. Using that guidance, tax positions initially need to be recognized in the financial statements when it is more likely than not the position will be sustained upon examination by the tax authorities. We recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain income tax positions in other expense.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

We do not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective accounting standards, will have a material effect on Arista’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Results of Operations

Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 and 2017

Revenues

Revenues consist of interest earned of lease financings and other factors that believe are reasonable.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.fee income. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, total revenues amounted to $3,673 as compared to $10,302 for the three months ended March 31, 2017, a decrease of $6,629, or 64.3%. The decrease in revenues for the periods discussed were attributable to a decrease in the revenue generated by our leasing portfolio during the 2018 period as compared to the 2017 period.

 

Our critical accounting policiesOperating Expenses

For the three months ended March 31, 2018, operating expenses amounted to $194,289 as compared to $35,215 for the three months ended March 31, 2017, an increase of $159,074, or 451.7%.

For the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, operating expenses consisted of the following:

  Three months Ended
March 31,
 
  2018  2017 
Compensation and benefits $100,622  $28,901 
Professional fees  86,880   1,425 
Bad debt recovery  (4,176)  - 
General and administrative expenses  10,963   4,889 
Total $194,289  $35,215 

17

For the three months ended March 31, 2018, compensation and benefit expense increased by $71,721, or 248.2%, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2017. These increase was attributable to an increase in compensation paid to Arista’s chief executive officer.

For the three months ended March 31, 2018, professional fees increased by $85,455, or 5,996.8%, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2017. This increase was primarily attributable to an increase in legal fees of $44.273, an increase in accounting fees of $28,500, and an increase in consulting fees of $9.242, and an increase in transfer agent fees of $3,440. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company recognized stock-based consulting fees of $5,750.
For the three months ended March 31, 2018, we recorded a bad debt recovery of $4,176 as compared to $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. Management periodically evaluates financing leases receivables based on the individual creditworthiness of customers. Based on this evaluation, Arista records an allowance for estimated losses or a bad debt recovery on these receivables.
For the three months ended March 31, 2018, general and administrative expenses increased by $6,074 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2017. The increase was due an increase in advertising expenses and office rent.

 Loss from Operations

As a result of the factors described above, for the three months ended March 31, 2018, loss from operations amounted to $190,616, as compared to $24,913 for the three months ended March 31, 2017, an increase of $165,703, or 665.1%.

Other Expenses

Other expenses consists of interest expense incurred on debt owed to third parties and related parties. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, interest expense amounted to $41,138, as compared to $24,774 for the three months ended March 31, 2017, an increase of $16,364, or 66.1%. These increases were attributable to an increase in borrowing pursuant to convertible note instruments and the amortization of debt discount.

Net Loss

As a result of the foregoing, for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, net loss amounted to $231,754, or $0.07 per common share (basic and diluted), and $49,687, or $0.02 per common share (basic and diluted), respectively.

Due to lack of operating cash flows, from December 31, 2017 to March 31, 2018, accounts payable and accrued expenses increase by $52,208 and $38,667, respectively. 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is the ability of an enterprise to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet its needs for cash requirements. Arista had cash of $10,402 and $728 on hand as of March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

Arista’s primary uses of cash have been for salaries, fees paid to third parties for professional services, general and administrative expenses, and the acquisition lease portfolios. All funds received have been expended in the furtherance of growing the business. Arista has received funds from the collection of lease payments, and from various financing activities such as from debt financings. The following trends are describedreasonably likely to result in our Annual Report on Form 10-K forchanges in Arista’s liquidity over the near to long term:

An increase in working capital requirements to finance our current business,
Acquisition of lease portfolios;
Addition of administrative and sales personnel as the business grows, and
The cost of being a public company.

During the year ended December 31, 2016, Arista issued 10% convertible promissory notes (the “2016 10% Convertible Notes”) to seven third party individuals in the aggregate amount of $400,000. The unpaid principal and interest was payable three years from the date of the respective 2016 10% Convertible Note. The 2016 10% Convertible Notes mature between June 1, 2019 and December 31, 2019. Arista has the right to prepay any amount outstanding under the 2016 10% Convertible Note, subject to a prepayment penalty of 5.0% of the amount prepaid. The noteholders are entitled, at their option, at any time after the issuance of the 2016 10% Convertible Notes, to convert all or any lesser portion of the outstanding principal amount and accrued but unpaid interest into Arista common stock at a conversion price of $1.50 per share. Noteholders also have the option of extending the maturity date of their notes for up to three additional one-year periods. In connection with the 2016 10% Convertible Notes, Arista also issued to noteholders five-year warrants to acquire an aggregate of 575,000 shares of Arista common stock at $2.00 per share. On December 14, 2017, in connection with the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company issued 266,666 shares to certain noteholders upon conversion of principal amount of $200,000.

18

During the period from July 1, 2017 to September 30, 2016.  There2017, Arista issued 12% convertible promissory notes (the “12% Convertible Notes”) to three third party individuals in the aggregate amount of $200,000. The unpaid principal and interest is payable three years from the date of the respective 12% Convertible Note. The 12% Convertible Notes mature between July 1, 2020 and August 1, 2020. Arista has the right to prepay any amount outstanding under the 12% Convertible Note, subject to a prepayment penalty of 5.0% of the amount prepaid. The noteholders are entitled, at their option, at any time after the issuance of the 12% Convertible Notes, to convert all or any lesser portion of the outstanding principal amount and accrued but unpaid interest into Arista common stock at a conversion price of $3.00 per share. Noteholders also have the option of extending the maturity date of their notes for up to three additional one-year periods. In connection with the 12% Convertible Notes, Arista also issued to noteholders five-year warrants to acquire an aggregate of 300,000 shares of Arista common stock at $4.00 per share.

On December 31, 2017, we issued an 8% promissory note to a third party in the amount of $50,000. In connection with this promissory note, at December 31, 2017, we recorded a subscription receivable of $50,000. The funds were received in January 2018. The unpaid principal and interest is payable on June 8, 2018. In connection with this promissory note, on December 31, 2017, we issued to this noteholder five-year warrants to acquire up to 25,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.01 per share.

In December 2017, we also issued 8% promissory notes to certain officers and directors of the Company in the aggregate amount of $50,000. The unpaid principal and interest is payable on June 8, 2018. In connection with these promissory notes, in December 2017, we issued to these related party noteholders five-year warrants to acquire up to 25,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.01 per share.

On January 1, 2018, we entered into a line of credit promissory note with a company owned by a director of the Company in the principal amount of $50,000 or such lesser amount as may be borrowed by the Company. This line of credit promissory note shall bear interest at the rate of 12% per annum and such interest shall be paid each month. The entire outstanding principal amount of this Note shall be due and payable on December 31, 2018. On the Maturity Date, if this Note has not been no material changespaid in full, it shall bear interest from inception at the rate of 18% per annum until paid in full. On January 1, 2018, we reclassified $15,000 of advances received by this related party entity into this promissory note. Additionally, during the three months ended March 31, 2018, we borrowed an additional $20,000 pursuant to the line of credit agreement. At March 31, 2018, amounts due under the line of credit amounted to $35,000.

We may need to raise additional funds, particularly if we are unable to generate positive cash flow as a result of our critical accounting policies as ofoperations. We estimate that based on current plans and assumptions, our available cash will not be sufficient to satisfy our cash requirements under our present operating expectations for the sixnext 12 months from the date of this annual report. Other than revenue received from our lease portfolio, and funds received from debt financings, we presently have no other significant alternative source of working capital. We have used these funds to fund our operating expenses, pay our obligations, acquire lease portfolios, and grow our company. We need to raise significant additional capital or debt financing to acquire new properties, to acquire additional lease portfolios, and to assure we have sufficient working capital for our ongoing operations and debt obligations.

Cash Flows

Net cash flow used in operating activities was $60,326 for the three months ended DecemberMarch 31, 2016.2018, as compared to net cash used in operating activities of $33,379 for the three months ended March 31, 2017, an increase of $26,947. Net cash used in operating activities consisted of cash used for working capital purposes for salaries, professional fees and general and administrative expenses.

For the three months ended March 31, 2017, net cash flow provided by investing activities amounted to $2,700 and consisted of proceeds from the sale of assets held for sale of $2,700. For the three months ended March 31, 2018, we did not have any cash flows from investing activities.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $70,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2017. During the three months ended March 31, 2018, we received proceeds from a note payable subscription receivable of $50,000 and proceeds from a related party line of credit of $20,000.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls.Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure“disclosure controls and procedures, designed” as that term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e), promulgated by the SEC pursuant to provide reasonable assurance that material information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our company’s reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC'sSEC’s rules and forms, and that thesuch information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officerprincipal executive officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriateprincipal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We performed an evaluation, under the supervision andOur management, with the participation of our management, includingprincipal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of ourcompany’s disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2016.the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Based on the existencethis evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that as of the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting discussed in our Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2016, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded thatMarch 31, 2018, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective aseffective.

The ineffectiveness of December 31, 2016 to provide such reasonable assurances.

We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud.  Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance thatwas due to the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met.  Further, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative to their costs.  Because of the inherent limitationsfollowing material weaknesses which we identified in all disclosure controls and procedures, no evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures can provide absolute assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any.  The design of disclosure controls and procedures is also based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting.reporting:

 

We did not maintain effective controls to identify and maintain segregation of duties between the ability to create and post manual journal entries to the general ledger system for a key accounting individual impacting the accuracy and completeness of all key accounts and disclosures. Specifically, the individual is assigned to both prepare and post journal entries, while holding responsibility for review of certain monthly reconciliations, without his entries being subject to an independent review.

During the six months ended December 31, 2016, there

We did not maintain effective controls to identify accounting policies and procedures specifying the correct treatment for estimating the allowance for lease losses and the related provision for lease losses. Specifically, supporting analysis is not prepared for estimating the allowance for lease losses and the related provision for lease losses, documenting compliance with relevant GAAP and the Company’s accounting policies.

We did not maintain effective controls to identify and prepare a supporting analysis for each financial statement disclosure, documenting its relevance with GAAP and the Company’s accounting and disclosure policies. Specifically, an independent review of financial statements and all related disclosures is not performed by management and/or other suitably qualified personnel for completeness, consistency, and compliance with GAAP and the Company’s accounting and disclosure policies.

Sufficient information is not provided to our Board of Directors on a timely basis to allow monitoring of management’s objectives and strategies, the entity’s financial position and operating results, and terms of significant agreements.  Specifically, the Board of Directors does not receive key information such as financial statements, analysis of significant accounts or transactions, and other financial information on a timely basis to monitor our financial position and operating results.

Changes in Internal Control

There were no changes in our internal controlscontrol over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) underduring the Exchange Act)three months ended March 31, 2018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
