Revenue Recognition 
The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 825-10,(“ASC”) Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606”). Revenues are recognized when control is transferred to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods. Revenue recognition is evaluated through the following five steps: (i) identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer; (ii) identification of the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determination of the transaction price; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognition of revenue when or as a performance obligation is satisfied.

We generate revenue from the following activities:
Recruiters on Demand: Consists of a consulting and staffing service specifically for the placement of professional recruiters, which we market as Recruiters on Demand. Recruiters on Demand is a flexible, time-based solution that provides businesses of all sizes access to recruiters on an outsourced, virtual basis for help with their hiring needs. As with other consulting and staffing solutions, we procure for our employer clients qualified professional recruiters, and then place them on assignment with our employer clients. Revenue earned through Recruiters on Demand is derived by billing the employer clients for the placed recruiters’ ongoing work at an agreed-upon, time-based rate. We directly source recruiter candidates from our network of recruiters on the Platform, as the recruiter user base of our Platform has the proper skill-set for recruiting and hiring projects. We had previously referred to this service in our revenue disaggregation disclosure in our consolidated financial statements as license and other, but on July 1, 2020, we rebranded as Recruiters on Demand.

Consulting and Staffing: Consists of providing consulting and staffing personnel services to employers to satisfy their demand for long- and short-term consulting and temporary employee needs. We generate revenue by first referring qualified personnel for the employer’s specific talent needs, then placing that personnel with the employer, but with us or our providers acting as the employer of record, and finally, billing the employer for the time and work of our placed personnel on an ongoing basis. Our process for finding candidates for consulting and staffing engagements largely mirrors our process for full-time placement hiring. This process includes employers informing us of open consulting and temporary staffing opportunities and projects, sourcing qualified candidates through the Platform and other similar means, and, finally, the employer selecting our candidates for placement after a process of review and selection. We bill these employer clients for our placed candidates’ ongoing work at an agreed-upon, time-based rate, typically on a weekly schedule of invoicing.

Full-time Placement: Consists of providing referrals of qualified candidates to employers to hire staff for full-time positions. We generate full-time placement revenue by earning one-time fees for each time that employers hire one of the candidates that we refer. Employers alert us of their hiring needs through our Platform or other communications. We source qualified candidate referrals for the employers’ available jobs through independent recruiter users that access our Platform and other tools. We support and supplement the independent recruiters’ efforts with dedicated internal employees we call our internal talent delivery team. Our talent delivery team selects and delivers candidate profiles and resumes to our employer clients for their review and ultimate selection. Upon the employer hiring one or more of our candidate referrals, we earn a “full-time placement fee”, an amount separately negotiated with each employer client. The full-time placement fee is typically either a percentage of the referred candidates’ first year’s base salary or an agreed-upon flat fee.
Marketing Solutions: Our “Marketing Solutions” allow companies to promote their unique brands on our website, the Platform, and our other business-related content and communication. This is accomplished through various forms of online advertising, including sponsorship of digital newsletters, online content promotion, social media distribution, banner advertising, and other branded electronic communications, such as in our quarterly digital publication on recruiting trends and issues. Customers who purchase our Marketing Solutions typically specialize in B2B software and other platform companies that focus on recruitment and human Resources processing. We earn revenue as we complete agreed upon marketing related deliverables and milestones using pricing and terms set by mutual agreement with the customer. In addition to its work with direct clients, the Company categorizes all online advertising and affiliate marketing revenue as Marketing Solutions.
Career Solutions: We provide services to assist job seekers with their career advancement. These services include a resume distribution service which involves promoting these job seekers’ profiles and resumes to assist with their procuring employment, and upskilling and training. Our resume distribution service allows a job seeker to upload his/her resume to our database, which we then distribute to our network of recruiters on the Platform. We earn revenue from a one-time flat fee for this service. We also offer a recruiter certification program which encompasses our recruitment related training content, which we make accessible through our online learning management system. Customers of the recruiter certification program use a self-managed system to navigate through a digital course of study. Upon completion of the program, we issue a certificate of completion and make available a digital badge to certify their achievement for display on their online recruiter profile on the Platform. For approximately the four months following March 31, 2020, the Company provided the recruiter certification program free in response to COVID-19. We partner with Careerdash, a high-quality training company, to provide Recruiter.com Academy, an immersive training experience for career changers.
We have a sales team and sales partnerships with direct employers as well as Vendor Management System companies and Managed Service companies that help create sales channels for clients that buy staffing, direct hire, and sourcing services. Once we have secured the relationship and contract with the interested Enterprise customer the delivery and product teams will provide the service to fulfill any or all of the revenue segments.


Revenues as presented on the statement of operations represent services rendered to customers less sales adjustments and allowances.
Recruiters on Demand services are billed to clients as either monthly subscriptions or time-based billings. Revenues for Recruiters on Demand are recognized on a gross basis when each monthly subscription service is completed.
Consulting and Staffing Services revenues represent services rendered to customers less sales adjustments and allowances. Reimbursements, including those related to travel and out-of-pocket expenses, are also included in the net service revenues and equivalent amounts of reimbursable expenses are included in costs of revenue. We record substantially all revenue on a gross basis as a principal versus on a net basis as an agent in the presentation of this line of revenues and expenses. We have concluded that gross reporting is appropriate because we have the task of identifying and hiring qualified employees, and our discretion to select the employees and establish their compensation and duties causes us to bear the risk for services that are not fully paid for by customers. Consulting and staffing revenues are recognized when the services are rendered by the temporary employees. Payroll and related taxes of certain employees that are placed on temporary assignment are outsourced to third party payors or related party payors. The payors pay all related costs of employment for these employees, including workers’ compensation insurance, state and federal unemployment taxes, social security and certain fringe benefits. We assume the risk of acceptability of the employees to customers. Payments for consulting and staffing services are typically due within 90 days of completion of services.
Full time placement revenues are recognized on a gross basis when the guarantee period specified in each customer’s contract expires. No fees for direct hire placement services are charged to the employment candidates. Any payments received prior to the expiration of the guarantee period are recorded as a deferred revenue liability. Payments for recruitment services are typically due within 90 days of completion of services.
Marketplace Solutions services revenues are recognized on a gross basis when the advertising is placed and displayed or when lead generation activities and online publications are completed, which is the point at which the performance obligations are satisfied. Payments for marketing and publishing are typically due within 30 days of completion of services.
Career services revenues are recognized on a gross basis upon distribution of resumes or completion of training courses, which is the point at which the performance obligations are satisfied. Payments for career services are typically due upon distribution or completion of services. 
Deferred revenue results from transactions in which the Company has been paid for services by customers, but for which all revenue recognition criteria have not yet been met. Once all revenue recognition criteria have been met, the deferred revenues are recognized.
Sales tax collected is recorded on a net basis and is excluded from revenue.
Contract Assets
The Company does not have any contract assets such as work-in-process. All trade receivables on the Company’s balance sheet are from contracts with customers.
Contract Costs
Costs incurred to obtain a contract are capitalized unless they are short term in nature. As a practical matter, costs to obtain a contract that are short term in nature are expensed as incurred. The Company does not have any contract costs capitalized as of March 31, 2021 or December 31, 2020.
Contract Liabilities - Deferred Revenue
The Company’s contract liabilities consist of advance customer payments and deferred revenue. Deferred revenue results from transactions in which the Company has been paid for services by customers, but for which all revenue recognition criteria have not yet been met. Once all revenue recognition criteria have been met, the deferred revenues are recognized.
For each of the identified periods, revenues can be categorized into the following:

Accounts determined to be uncollectible are charged to operations when that determination is made. The Company usually does not require collateral. We have recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts of $47,463 and $33,000 as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Bad debt expense was $16,963 and $11,250 for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

For the three months ended March 31, 2020 two customers accounted for 10% or more of total revenue, at 33% and 18%, for a total of 51%.
We use a related party firm for software development and maintenance related to our website and the platform underlying our operations. One of our officers and principal shareholders is an employee of this firm and exerts control over this firm (see Note 11). 
We are a party to that certain license agreement with a related party firm (see Note 11).

Fair Value of Financial Instruments (“ASC 825-10”) requires disclosure ofand Fair Value Measurements
The Company measures and discloses the fair value of certainassets and liabilities required to be carried at fair value in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a hierarchical framework for measuring fair value, and enhances fair value measurement disclosure. 
ASC 825 defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and risk of nonperformance. ASC 825 establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 825 establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 - Quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets to which we have access at the measurement date.
Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
The determination of where assets and liabilities fall within this hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The Company’s investment in available for sale securities and warrant derivative liabilities are measured at fair value. The securities are measured based on current trading prices using Level 1 fair value inputs. The Company’s derivative instruments are valued using Level 3 fair value inputs. The Company does not have any other financial instruments.instruments which require re-measurement to fair value. The carrying amount reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheet forvalues of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and notesloans payable approximatesrepresent fair value becausebased upon their short-term nature.
A financial asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The table below summarizes the fair values of our financial assets and liabilities as of March 31, 2021:

Business Combinations
For all business combinations (whether partial, full or short-term maturitystep acquisitions), the Company records 100% of all assets and liabilities of the acquired business, including goodwill, generally at their fair values; contingent consideration, if any, is recognized at its fair value on the acquisition date and, for certain arrangements, changes in fair value are recognized in earnings until settlement and acquisition-related transaction and restructuring costs are expensed rather than treated as part of the cost of the acquisition.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets consist primarily of the assets acquired from Genesys in 2019, including customer contracts and intellectual property, acquired on March 31, 2019 and the assets acquired from Scouted and Upsider during the first quarter of 2021 (see Note 12). Amortization expense will be recorded on the straight line basis over the estimated economic lives.
Goodwill
Goodwill is comprised of the purchase price of business combinations in excess of the fair value assigned at acquisition to the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized. The Company tests goodwill for impairment for its reporting units on an annual basis, or when events occur, or circumstances indicate the fair value of a reporting unit is below its carrying value.
The Company performs its annual goodwill and impairment assessment on December 31st of each year (see Note 4).
When evaluating the potential impairment of goodwill, management first assess a range of qualitative factors, including but not limited to, macroeconomic conditions, industry conditions, the competitive environment, changes in the market for the Company’s products and services, regulatory and political developments, entity specific factors such as strategy and changes in key personnel, and the overall financial performance for each of the Company’s reporting units. If, after completing this assessment, it is determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, we then proceed to the impairment testing methodology primarily using the income approach (discounted cash flow method).
We compare the carrying value of the reporting unit, including goodwill, with its fair value, as determined by its estimated discounted cash flows. If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, then the amount of impairment to be recognized is recognized as the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value.
When required, we arrive at our estimates of fair value using a discounted cash flow methodology which includes estimates of future cash flows to be generated by specifically identified assets, as well as selecting a discount rate to measure the present value of those anticipated cash flows. Estimating future cash flows requires significant judgment and includes making assumptions about projected growth rates, industry-specific factors, working capital requirements, weighted average cost of capital, and current and anticipated operating conditions. The use of different assumptions or estimates for future cash flows could produce different results.
Long-lived assets
Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the book value of the asset may not be recoverable. The Company periodically evaluates whether events and circumstances have occurred that indicate possible impairment. When impairment indicators exist, the Company estimates the future undiscounted net cash flows of the related asset or asset group over the remaining life of the asset in measuring whether or not the asset values are recoverable.
Stock-Based Compensation
We account for our stock-based compensation under ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation” using the fair value based method. Under this method, compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the shorter of the service period or the vesting period of the stock-based compensation. This guidance establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges it equity instruments for goods or services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. The Company estimates the fair value of each stock option at the grant date by using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Determining the fair value of stock-based compensation at the grant date under this model requires judgment, including estimating volatility, employee stock option exercise behaviors and forfeiture rates. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based compensation represent the Company’s best estimates, but these financial instruments.

estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management judgment. 



Convertible Instruments

The Company evaluates and accounts for conversion options embedded in its convertible instruments in accordance with professional standards for “Accounting for Derivative Instrumentsvarious accounting standards.
ASC 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities From Equity” provides that instruments convertible predominantly at a fixed rate resulting in a fixed monetary amount due upon conversion with a variable quantity of shares (“stock settled debt”) be recorded as a liability at the fixed monetary amount.
ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging Activities”.

Professional standardsHedging” generally provides three criteria that, if met, require companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments. These three criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur, and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument. Professional standards also provide an exception to this rule when the host instrument is deemed to be conventional as defined under professional standards as “The Meaning of Conventional Convertible Debt Instrument”.

Instrument.”

The Company accounts for convertible instruments (when it has determined that the instrument is not a stock settled debt and the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments) in accordance with professional standards when “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features,” as those professional standards pertain to “Certain Convertible Instruments.” Accordingly, the Company records, when necessary, discounts to convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. Debt discountsDiscounts under these arrangements are amortized over the term of the related debt to their earliest date of redemption. The Company also records when necessary deemed dividends for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in preferred shares based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the preferred sharesshare transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the preferred shares.

ASC 815-40 provides that among other things, generally if an event is not within the entity’s control orand could require net cash settlement, then the contract shall be classified as an asset or a liability.

Derivative Instruments

The Company’s derivative financial instruments consist of embedded derivatives related to the convertible debt and conversion features embedded withinwarrants issued with the sale of our convertible debt.notes in 2020 and 2021 (see Notes 7 and 9) and the warrants issued with the sale of our Series D Preferred Stock in 2020 and 2019 (see Note 9). The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that we record the derivatives at their fair values as of the inception date of the debt agreements and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. Any change in fair value wasis recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense at each balance sheet date. If the fair value of the derivatives was higher at the subsequent balance sheet date, we recorded a non-operating, non-cash charge. If the fair value of the derivatives was lower at the subsequent balance sheet date, we recorded non-operating, non-cash income.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company utilizes Upon the Black-Scholes option-pricing modeldetermination that an instrument is no longer subject to determinederivative accounting, the fair value of options and warrants granted as stock-based compensation, which requires usthe derivative instrument at the date of such determination will be reclassified to make judgments relating to the inputs required to bepaid in capital.

Product Development
Product development costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses and consist of support, maintenance and upgrades of our website and IT platform and are charged to operations as incurred.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
The Company follows ASC 260 “Earnings Per Share” for calculating the model. In this regard,basic and diluted earnings (or loss) per share. Basic earnings (or loss) per share are computed by dividing earnings (or loss) available to common shareholders by the expected volatilityweighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (or loss) per share is based oncomputed similar to basic loss per share except that the historical price volatilitydenominator is increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if the potential shares of common stock had been issued and if the additional shares were dilutive. Common stock equivalents are excluded from the diluted earnings (or loss) per share computation if their effect is anti-dilutive. Common stock equivalents in amounts of 27,430,594 and 18,685,872 were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the 3 months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, because their effects would have been anti-dilutive.

The dividend yield representsreportable segments. Using the Company’s anticipated cash dividend on common stock overmanagement approach, the expected life of the stock options. The U.S. Treasury bill rate for the expected life of the stock options is utilized to determine the risk-free interest rate. The expected term of stock options represents the period of time the stock options granted are expected to be outstanding.

Company determined that it has one operating segment.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

With the exception of those discussed below, there

There have not been any recent changes in accounting pronouncements and Accounting Standards Update (ASU)ASU issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) during the nine months ended December 31, 2017FASB that are of significance or potential significance to the Company.

Company except as disclosed below.

In May 2017,December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting”, which clarifies when2019-12, “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” This guidance, among other provisions, eliminates certain exceptions to account for a changeexisting guidance related to the termsapproach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. This guidance also requires an entity to reflect the effect of an enacted change in tax laws or conditionsrates in its effective income tax rate in the first interim period that includes the enactment date of a share-based payment award as a modification. Under the new guidance, modification accounting is required only iflegislation, aligning the fair value, the vesting conditions, or the classificationtiming of recognition of the awardeffects from enacted tax law changes as a resulton the effective income tax rate with the effects on deferred income tax assets and liabilities. Under existing guidance, an entity recognizes the effects of the enacted tax law change on the effective income tax rate in terms or conditions. If an award is not probablethe period that includes the effective date of vesting at the time a change is made, the new guidance clarifies that no new measurement date will be required if there is no change to the fair value, vesting conditions, and classification. Thistax law. ASU will be applied prospectively and2019-12 is effective for fiscal yearsinterim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those years,2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company doesadoption of ASU 2019-12 did not expect this standard to have a material impact on itsour consolidated financial statements.

In July 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. (“ASU’’) 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480) and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815). The amendments in this Update provide guidance about:

1. Accounting for certain financial instruments with down round features

2. Replacement of the indefinite deferral for mandatorily redeemable financial instruments of certain non-public entities and certain non-controlling interests

The amendments in Part I of this Update change the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features) with down round features. When determining whether certain financial instruments should be classified as liabilities or equity instruments, a down round feature no longer precludes equity classification when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The amendments also clarify existing disclosure requirements for equity-classified instruments. As a result, a freestanding equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded conversion option) no longer would be accounted for as a derivative liability at fair value as a result of the existence of a down round feature. For freestanding equity classified financial instruments, the amendments require entities that present earnings per share (EPS) in accordance with Topic 260 to recognize the effect of the down round feature when it is triggered. That effect is treated as a dividend and as a reduction of income available to common shareholders in basic EPS. Convertible instruments with embedded conversion options that have down round features are now subject to the specialized guidance for contingent beneficial conversion features (in Subtopic 470-20, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options), including related EPS guidance (in Topic 260).

The amendments in Part II of this Update recharacterize the indefinite deferral of certain provisions of Topic 480 that now are presented as pending content in the Codification, to a scope exception. Those amendments do not have an accounting effect.

The amendments in Part I of this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted for all entities, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The amendments in Part 1 of this Update should be applied in either of the following ways: 1. Retrospectively to outstanding financial instruments with a down round feature by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the statement of financial position as of the beginning of the first fiscal year and interim period(s) in which the pending content that links to this paragraph is effective 2. Retrospectively to outstanding financial instruments with a down round feature for each prior reporting period presented in accordance with the guidance on accounting changes in paragraphs 250-10-45-5 through 45-10. The Company has adopted this update during the quarter ended December 31, 2017. The Company has retrospectively applied amendments in Part I of ASU 2017-11 to outstanding financial instruments with a down round feature by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the statement of financial position as of the beginning of the first fiscal year and interim period(s) in which the pending content that links to this paragraph is effective. On the date of adoption, there were no previously issued outstanding financial instruments with a down round feature.

The amendments in Part II of this Update do not require any transition guidance because those amendments do not have an accounting effect.


NOTE 2 — NOTES PAYABLE

Note Payable – Related Party 

Michael Solomon, the Company’s founder and former Chief Executive Officer (the “Founder”), advanced funds to TMC, evidenced by an unsecured term note (the “Note”), with an outstanding principal amount of $572,301 and $457,801 on October 31, 2017 (the date that Mr. Solomon exercised his option to purchase TMC) and March 31, 2017, respectively. The Note was without recourse to Truli Media Group, Inc. The Note bore interest at 4% per annum. The Company recorded interest expense of $1,910 and $3,639 for the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The Company recorded interest expense of $12,123 and $7,699 for the nine months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. As a result of Mr. Solomon’s exercise of the purchase option to acquire TMC, this note and the related accrued interest of $24,800 is no longer a liability of the Company. Accrued interest payable was $12,677 at March 31, 2017. 

Convertible Notes Payable – Related Party 

On December 1, 2015, the Company issued an unsecured, convertible promissory note (the “Convertible Note”) to the Founder with a principal amount of $1,955,934, as satisfaction of $1,822,109 of principal and $133,825 of accrued interest outstanding under the Note described above. The Convertible Note, which carried interest at the rate of 4% per annum, matures on December 1, 2020. The Convertible Note and related accrued interest is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at the rate of $0.02 per share, subject to certain restrictions of beneficial ownership. The Company recorded interest expense of $6,645 and $19,720 for the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The Company recorded interest expense of $45,871 and $58,946 for the nine months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Accrued interest payable was $150,259 and $104,388 at October 30, 2017 (the date of the exchange of the notes into Series C Convertible Preferred Stock) and March 31, 2017, respectively.

Effective September 21, 2016, the Company, the Founder and two institutional investors (the “Investors”) entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (the “NPA”) pursuant to which the Founder sold the Convertible Note with a principal amount of $1,955,934 previously issued by the Company to the Founder to the Investors in equal amounts in exchange for $102,500 from each Investor, each of whom acquired a convertible note for one-half of the principal (together the “Investor Convertible Notes”). The NPA included a provision under which the Founder has an option to purchase all of the Company’s current operating assets for $5,000. The option is exercisable through March 23, 2017 with the consent of one of the Investors, and thereafter through September 23, 2017 without the consent of the Investors. Effective as of September 23, 2017, the Company agreed to extend the option held by the Founder through October 31, 2017, and the option was exercised on that date. On October 30, 2017, the Investors exchanged the Convertible Notes for 102,099.752 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock.

Subsequent to September 30, 2016, Truli transferred the Company’s operating assets to its newly-formed, wholly-owned subsidiary, TMC. Under the NPA, the Company agreed with the Founder that it will be an Event of Default under the Convertible Notes if the Founder does not pay all operating costs of the Company, which essentially are the operating expenses of TMC. The NPA clearly indicates that public company compliance costs, including accounting, auditing and legal fees relating to securities matters are not operating costs. In addition, the Founder agreed to assume and pay all of the Company’s liabilities arising prior to the date of the NPA, except for the Convertible Notes and pay operating liabilities thereafter. The Investors agreed to pay all of the public company costs for a period of one year following the date of the NPA.

GOING CONCERN

Convertible Notes Payable – Other 

On November 8, 2016, the Company sold an aggregate of $50,000 principal amount of its convertible promissory notes (the “November Notes”) to the Investors and received $50,000 in gross proceeds. The Notes are convertible, at the option of the holder, into shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a per share price of $0.02, subject to adjustment as provided in the Notes and subject to a total beneficial ownership limitation of 9.99% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock. Each Note has a maturity date that is five months from the issue date. The maturity date of each November Note has been extended to October 31, 2017. The Company recorded interest expense of $430 and $2,973 for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2017, respectively. Accrued interest payable was $4,972 and $2,000 at October 30, 2017 (the date of the exchange of the notes into Series C-1 Convertible Preferred Stock) and March 31, 2017, respectively.

On April 6, 2017, the Company sold an aggregate of $40,000 principal amount of its convertible promissory notes (the “April Notes”) to the holders of the Convertible Note and received $40,000 in gross proceeds. The Notes are convertible, at the option of the holder, into shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a per share price of $0.02, subject to adjustment as provided in the Notes and subject to a total beneficial ownership limitation of 9.99% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock. Each April Note has a maturity date that is four months from the issue date. The maturity date of each April Note has been extended to October 31, 2017. The Company recorded interest expense of $345 and $2,322 for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2017. Accrued interest payable was $2,322 and $0 at October 30, 2017 (the date of the exchange of the notes into Series C-1 Convertible Preferred Stock) and March 31, 2017, respectively.

On October 30, 2017, the Investors exchanged the November and April Notes and related accrued interest for 18,839 shares of Series C-1 Convertible Preferred Stock. We recorded a gain of $634,435 as a result of the conversion of the debt and related derivative liabilities during the three and nine months ended December 31, 2017.

NOTE 3 — DERIVATIVES

The Company has identified certain embedded derivatives related to its convertible notes and common stock purchase warrants. Since certain of the notes are convertible into a variable number of shares or have a price reset feature, the conversion features of those debentures are recorded as derivative liabilities. Since the warrants have a price reset feature, they are recorded as derivative liabilities. The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company record the fair value of the derivatives as of the inception date and to adjust to fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. 

Compensation Warrants (issued on September 10, 2013):

On September 10, 2013, the Company issued 50,134 warrants as compensation for consulting services. The warrants had an initial exercise price of $2.50 per shares and a term of three years. The Company identified embedded derivatives related to these warrants, due to the price reset features of these instruments. As a result, we have classified these instruments as derivative liabilities in the financial statements. 

During the year ended March 31, 2016, the warrants were adjusted upon the subsequent issuance of debt in accordance with the terms of the warrants. The number of warrants was increased to a total of 6,266,715 and the exercise price was reduced to $0.02. 

During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2016, the Company recorded income of $0 and $336, respectively, related to the change in the fair value of the derivative. The warrants expired unexercised on September 10, 2016.

November Notes

The Company identified embedded derivatives related to the conversion features of the November 2016 Notes. The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company record the fair value of the derivatives as of the inception date of the note and to adjust the fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. The Company calculated the fair value of the embedded derivative at the inception of the Notes as $951, using the Black Scholes Model based on the following assumptions: (1) risk free interest rate of 0.64%; (2) dividend yield of 0%; (3) volatility factor of the expected market price of our common stock of 247%; and (4) an expected life of 5 months. The initial fair value of the embedded debt derivative was allocated as debt discount, which has been amortized to interest expense over the original term of the Notes. During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2017, $0 and $48 was charged to interest expense, respectively.

We have recorded additions to our derivative conversion liabilities related to the conversion feature attributable to interest accrued during the period.

These additions totaled $2,808 and $4,173 for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2017, respectively, and were charged to interest expense.

During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2017, the Company recorded expense of $301,070 and $320,837 related to the change in the fair value of the derivative. The fair value of the embedded derivative was $358,462 at October 30, 2017 (the date of the exchange of the notes into Series C-1 Convertible Preferred Stock), determined using the Black Scholes Model with the following assumptions: (1) risk free interest rate of 0.97%; (2) dividend yield of 0%; (3) volatility factor of the expected market price of our common stock of 353%; and (4) an expected life of 1 month. 


April Notes

The Company identified embedded derivatives related to the conversion features of the April 2017 Notes. The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that the Company record the fair value of the derivatives as of the inception date of the note and to adjust the fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. The Company calculated the fair value of the embedded derivative at the inception of the Notes as $11,117, using the Black Scholes Model based on the following assumptions: (1) risk free interest rate of 0.838%; (2) dividend yield of 0%; (3) volatility factor of the expected market price of our common stock of 339%; and (4) an expected life of 4 months. The initial fair value of the embedded debt derivative was allocated as debt discount, which has been amortized to interest expense over the term of the Notes. During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2017, $0 and $11,117 was charged to interest expense.

We have recorded additions to our derivative conversion liabilities related to the conversion feature attributable to interest accrued during the period. These additions totaled $2,246 and $3,269 for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2017, respectively, and were charged to interest expense.

During the three and nine months ended December 31, 2017, the Company recorded expense of $231,718 and $261,588 related to the change in the fair value of the derivative. The fair value of the embedded derivative was $275,974 at October 30, 2017 (the date of the exchange of the notes into Series C-1 Convertible Preferred Stock), determined using the Black Scholes Model with the following assumptions: (1) risk free interest rate of 0.97%; (2) dividend yield of 0%; (3) volatility factor of the expected market price of our common stock of 353%; and (4) an expected life of 1 month. 

NOTE 4 — FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

ASC 825-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and risk of nonperformance. ASC 825-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 825-10 establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value: 

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of fair value of assets or liabilities.

To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is disclosed is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

NOTE 5 — GOING CONCERN

business. The Company’s management has evaluated whether there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and has determined that substantial doubt existed as of the date of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.report. This determination was based on the following factors: (i) the Company has a working capital deficit as of March 31, 2021 and the Company’s available cash as of the date of this filing will not be sufficient to fund its anticipated level of operations for the next 12 months; (ii) the Company maywill require additional financing for the remainder of fiscal 2018year ending December 31, 2021 to continue at its expected level of operations; and (iii) if the Company fails to obtain the needed capital, it will be forced to delay, scale back, or eliminate some or all of its development activities or perhaps cease operations. In the opinion of management, these factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern as of the date of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. 

Therereport and for one year from the issuance of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.


In January 2021 the Company raised approximately $3 million in gross proceeds through the issuance of convertible debentures and warrants as more fully disclosed in Note 7. The Company also received $250,000 in proceeds from a promissory note in May 2021 as more fully disclosed in Note 13. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in any other capital-raising efforts that it may undertake to fund operations during the next 12 months. The Company anticipates that it will issue equity and/or debt securities as a source of liquidity, until it begins to generate positive cash flow to support its operations. Any future sales of securities to finance operations will dilute existing stockholders'shareholders’ ownership. The Company cannot guarantee when or if it will generate positive cash flow.

In March 2020, the outbreak of COVID-19 (coronavirus) caused by a novel strain of the coronavirus was recognized as a pandemic by the World Health Organization, and the outbreak has become increasingly widespread in the United States, including in each of the areas in which the Company operates. While to date the Company has not been required to stop operating, management is evaluating its use of its office space, virtual meetings and the like. We have reduced certain billing rates to respond to the current economic climate. Additionally, while we have experienced, and could continue to experience, a loss of clients as the result of the pandemic, we expect that the impact of such attrition would be mitigated by the addition of new clients resulting from our continued efforts to adjust the Company’s operations to address changes in the recruitment industry. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will impact our operations, ability to obtain financing or future financial results is uncertain at this time. Due to the effects of COVID-19, the Company took steps to streamline certain expenses, such as temporarily cutting certain executive compensation packages by approximately 20%. Management also worked to reduce unnecessary marketing expenditures and worked to improve staff and human capital expenditures, while maintaining overall workforce levels. The Company is currentlyexpects but cannot guarantee that demand for its recruiting solutions will improve later in negotiations for another round of funding anticipated for2021, as certain clients re-open or accelerate their hiring initiatives, and new clients utilize our services. The Company does not expect reductions made in the fourthsecond quarter of fiscal 2018. However, there2020 due to COVID-19 will inhibit its ability to meet client demand. Overall, management is no assurance thatfocused on effectively positioning the Company willfor a rebound in hiring which we expect later in 2021. Ultimately, the recovery may be successful in this or any other capital-raising efforts that itdelayed and the economic conditions may undertake to fund operations during the next twelve months.worsen. The Company anticipates thatcontinues to closely monitor the confidence of its recruiter users and customers, and their respective job requirement load through offline discussions and the Company’s Recruiter Index survey.
We also depend on raising additional debt or equity capital to stay operational. The economic impact of COVID-19 may make it more difficult for us to raise additional capital when needed. The terms of any financing, if we are able to complete one, will issue equity and/or debt securitieslikely not be favorable to us. If we are unable to raise additional capital, we may not be able to meet our obligations as they come due, raising substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a source of liquidity, until it begins to generate positive cash flow to support its operations. Any future sales of securities to finance operations will dilute existing stockholders' ownership. The Company cannot guarantee when or if it will generate positive cash flow.

COVID-19 Uncertainty:
In late 2019, an outbreak of COVID-19 was first reported in Wuhan, China. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a global pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in the implementation of significant governmental measures, including lockdowns, closures, quarantines and travel bans around the world aimed at controlling the spread of the virus. Businesses are also taking precautions, including requiring employees to work remotely or take leave, imposing travel restrictions and temporarily closing their facilities. Initial unemployment numbers have spiked. Uncertainties regarding the impact of COVID-19 on economic conditions are likely to result in sustained market turmoil and reduced demand for employees, which in its turn has had a negative impact on the recruitment and staffing industry. According to a June 2020 report from CEO. Today, the U.S. staffing industry, which previously boasted a market size of $152 billion fell to roughly $119 billion since the COVID-19 outbreak; bringing it down to its lowest level since 2013. This represents a 21% decrease from 2019.
To date the economic impact of COVID-19 has resulted in certain reductions in the Company’s business and the Company has devoted efforts to shifting its focus in areas of hiring. As of the date of this filing, to the Company’s knowledge, no customer of the Company has gone out of business nor have any counterparties attempted to assert the existence of a force majeure clause, which excuses contractual performance. Because we depend on continued demand for recruitment services, a downturn in the recruitment and staffing industry would have a material adverse impact on our business and results of operations.
While to date the Company has not been required to stop operating, management is evaluating its use of its office space, virtual meetings and the like. We have reduced certain billing rates to respond to the current economic climate. Additionally, while we have experienced, and could continue to experience, a loss of clients as the result of the pandemic, we expect that the impact of such attrition would be mitigated by the addition of new clients resulting from our continued efforts to adjust the Company’s operations to address changes in the recruitment industry. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will impact our operations, ability to obtain financing or future financial results is uncertain at this time. Due to the effects of COVID-19, the Company took steps to streamline certain expenses, such as temporarily cutting certain executive compensation packages by approximately 20%. Management also worked to reduce unnecessary marketing expenditures and worked to improve staff and human capital expenditures, while maintaining overall workforce levels. The Company expects but cannot guarantee that demand for its recruiting solutions will improve later in 2021, as certain clients re-open or accelerate their hiring initiatives, and new clients utilize our services. The Company does not expect reductions made in the second quarter of 2020 due to COVID-19 will inhibit its ability to meet client demand. Overall, management is focused on effectively positioning the Company for a rebound in hiring which we expect later in 2021. Ultimately, the recovery may be delayed and the economic conditions may worsen. The Company continues to closely monitor the confidence of its recruiter users and customers, and their respective job requirement load through offline discussions and the Company’s Recruiter Index survey.
We also depend on raising additional debt or equity capital to stay operational. The economic impact of COVID-19 may make it more difficult for us to raise additional capital when needed. The terms of any financing, if we are able to complete one, will likely not be favorable to us. If we are unable to raise additional capital, we may not be able to meet our obligations as they come due, raising substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 11 — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The shareholders of Upsider may also receive earn-out consideration of up to $1,394,760, based on the attainment of specifictargets during the six months following closing. We have recorded the fair value of the contingent earn-out consideration of $1,325,003 at March 31, 2021. The total purchase price is approximately $3.9 million. The assets acquired in the APA consist primarily of sales and client relationships, contracts, intellectual property, partnership and vendor agreements and a de minimis amount of other assets. The Company is utilizing Upsider’s machine learning artificial intelligence to provide a more predictive and efficient recruiting tool that enhances our current technology.
The Company also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with Upsider (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). The Registration Rights Agreement provides that following the Six-Month Anniversary (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), and for a period of five years thereafter, Upsider shall have the ability, on three occasions, to demand that Company shall file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement on Form S-1 or Form S-3, pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, to register the Consideration Shares. Additionally, pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, for a period of three years following the Six-Month Anniversary, whenever the Company proposes to register the issuance or sale of any of its Common Stock or its own account or otherwise, and the registration form to be used may be used for the registration of the Consideration Shares.
The acquisition is accounted for by the Company in accordance with the acquisition method of accounting pursuant to ASC 805 “Business Combinations” and pushdown accounting is applied to record the fair value of the assets acquired on Recruiting Solutions. Under this method, the purchase price is allocated to the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition.

Overview
Recruiter.com Group, Inc. (“we,” “the Company”, “Recruiter.com”, “us”, “our”) operates an on-demand recruiting platform aiming to disrupt the $120 billion recruiting and its former subsidiary TMC.

Corporate Development

staffing industry. We combine an online hiring platform with the world’s largest network of over 28,000 small and independent recruiters. Businesses of all sizes recruit talent faster using the Recruiter.com platform, which is powered by virtual teams of Recruiters On Demand and Video and Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) job-matching technology.

Our website, www.Recruiter.com, provides employees seeking to hire access to over 28,000 independent recruiters and utilizes an innovative web platform, with integrated AI-driven candidate to job matching and video screening software to more easily and quickly source qualified talent.
We help businesses accelerate and streamline their recruiting and hiring processes by providing on-demand recruiting services. We leverage our expert network of recruiters to place recruiters on a project basis, aided by cutting edge AI-based candidate sourcing, and matching and video screening technologies. We operate a cloud-based scalable SaaS-enabled marketplace platform for professional hiring, which provides prospective employers access to a network of thousands of independent recruiters from across the country and worldwide, with a diverse talent sourcing skillset that includes information technology, accounting, finance, sales, marketing, operations and healthcare specializations. 
Through our Recruiting.com Solutions division, we also provide consulting and staffing, and full-time placement services to employers which leverages our platform and rounds out our services.
Our mission is to grow our most collaborative and connective global platform to connect recruiters and employers and become the preferred solution for hiring specialized talent. 
We generate revenue from the following activities:
Recruiters on Demand: Consists of a consulting and staffing service specifically for the placement of professional recruiters, which we market as Recruiters on Demand. Recruiters on Demand is a flexible, time-based solution that provides businesses of all sizes access to recruiters on an outsourced, virtual basis for help with their hiring needs. As with other consulting and staffing solutions, we procure for our employer clients qualified professional recruiters, and then place them on assignment with our employer clients. Revenue earned through Recruiters on Demand is derived by billing the employer clients for the placed recruiters’ ongoing work at an agreed-upon, time-based rate. We directly source recruiter candidates from our network of recruiters on the Platform, as the recruiter user base of our Platform has the proper skill-set for recruiting and hiring projects. We had previously referred to this service in our revenue disaggregation disclosure in our consolidated financial statements as license and other, but on July 1, 2020, we rebranded as Recruiters on Demand.
Consulting and Staffing: Consists of providing consulting and staffing personnel services to employers to satisfy their demand for long- and short-term consulting and temporary employee needs. We generate revenue by first referring qualified personnel for the employer’s specific talent needs, then placing that personnel with the employer, but with us or our providers acting as the employer of record, and finally, billing the employer for the time and work of our placed personnel on an ongoing basis. Our process for finding candidates for consulting and staffing engagements largely mirrors our process for full-time placement hiring. This process includes employers informing us of open consulting and temporary staffing opportunities and projects, sourcing qualified candidates through the Platform and other similar means, and, finally, the employer selecting our candidates for placement after a process of review and selection. We bill these employer clients for our placed candidates’ ongoing work at an agreed-upon, time-based rate, typically on a weekly schedule of invoicing.


Full-time Placement: Consists of providing referrals of qualified candidates to employers to hire staff for full-time positions. We generate full-time placement revenue by earning one-time fees for each time that employers hire one of the candidates that we refer. Employers alert us of their hiring needs through our Platform or other communications. We source qualified candidate referrals for the employers’ available jobs through independent recruiter users that access our Platform and other tools. We support and supplement the independent recruiters’ efforts with dedicated internal employees we call our internal talent delivery team. Our talent delivery team selects and delivers candidate profiles and resumes to our employer clients for their review and ultimate selection. Upon the employer hiring one or more of our candidate referrals, we earn a “full-time placement fee”, an amount separately negotiated with each employer client. The full-time placement fee is typically either a percentage of the referred candidates’ first year’s base salary or an agreed-upon flat fee.

Marketing Solutions: Our “Marketing Solutions” allow companies to promote their unique brands on our website, the Platform, and our other business-related content and communication. This is accomplished through various forms of online advertising, including sponsorship of digital newsletters, online content promotion, social media distribution, banner advertising, and other branded electronic communications, such as in our quarterly digital publication on recruiting trends and issues. Customers who purchase our Marketing Solutions typically specialize in B2B software and other platform companies that focus on recruitment and human Resources processing. We earn revenue as we complete agreed upon marketing related deliverables and milestones using pricing and terms set by mutual agreement with the customer. In addition to its work with direct clients, the Company categorizes all online advertising and affiliate marketing revenue as Marketing Solutions.
Career Solutions: We provide services to assist job seekers with their career advancement. These services include a resume distribution service which involves promoting these job seekers’ profiles and resumes to assist with their procuring employment, and upskilling and training. Our resume distribution service allows a job seeker to upload his/her resume to our database, which we then distribute to our network of recruiters on the Platform. We earn revenue from a one-time flat fee for this service. We also offer a recruiter certification program which encompasses our recruitment related training content, which we make accessible through our online learning management system. Customers of the recruiter certification program use a self-managed system to navigate through a digital course of study. Upon completion of the program, we issue a certificate of completion and make available a digital badge to certify their achievement for display on their online recruiter profile on the Platform. For approximately the four months following March 31, 2020, the Company provided the recruiter certification program free in response to COVID-19. We partner with Careerdash, a high-quality training company, to provide Recruiter.com Academy, an immersive training experience for career changers.
The Company was incorporated in Oklahoma in 2008. On March 17, 2015,costs of our revenue primarily consist of employee costs, third-party staffing costs and other fees, outsourced recruiter fees and commissions based on a percentage of Recruiting Solutions gross margin. 
Our results of operations and financial condition may be impacted positively and negatively by certain general macroeconomic and industry wide conditions, such as the Company reincorporated in Delaware.

On September 21, 2016, Michael J. Solomon, the founder and Chairmaneffects of the BoardCOVID-19 pandemic. The consequences of the Company (the “Founder”) sold a convertible note with a principal amount of $1,955,934 previously issued bypandemic and impact on the CompanyU.S. and global economies continue to evolve and the Founder (the “Convertible Note”) to two institutional investors (the “Investors”) in equal amounts in exchange for payment of $102,500 from each investor.

Under the termsfull extent of the Note Purchase Agreement (the “NPA”), the Founder was required to pay all of the liabilitiesimpact is uncertain as of the date of this filing. The pandemic has had a detrimental effect on many recruitment technology companies and on the NPA other thangeneral employment and staffing industry. If the Convertible Noterecovery from the COVID-19 pandemic is not robust, the impact could be prolonged and public company expensessevere. While to date the Company has not been required to stop operating, management is evaluating its use of its office space, virtual meetings and the like. We have reduced certain billing rates to respond to the current economic climate. Additionally, while we have experienced, and could continue to pay all operating liabilities other thanexperience, a loss of clients as the public company liabilities, which were paidresult of the pandemic, we expect that the impact of such attrition would be mitigated by the Investors for one year.addition of new clients resulting from our continued efforts to adjust the Company’s operations to address changes in the recruitment industry. The NPA includes a provision underextent to which the Founder had an optionCOVID-19 pandemic will impact our operations, ability to purchase allobtain financing or future financial results is uncertain at this time. Due to the effects of COVID-19, the Company took steps to streamline certain expenses, such as temporarily cutting certain executive compensation packages by approximately 20%. Management also worked to reduce unnecessary marketing expenditures and worked to improve staff and human capital expenditures, while maintaining overall workforce levels. The Company expects but cannot guarantee that demand for its recruiting solutions will improve later in 2021, as certain clients re-open or accelerate their hiring initiatives, and new clients utilize our services. The Company does not expect reductions made in the second quarter of 2020 due to COVID-19 will inhibit its ability to meet client demand. Overall, management is focused on effectively positioning the Company for a rebound in hiring which we expect later in 2021. Ultimately, the recovery may be delayed and the economic conditions may worsen. The Company continues to closely monitor the confidence of its recruiter users and customers, and their respective job requirement load through offline discussions and the Company’s Recruiter Index survey.

Since March 31, 2021, our key highlights include the following:
Announced a partnership with WeWork, which brings on-demand recruiting services to their business members through September 23, 2017. Effective asan exclusiveRecruiter.com Flexprogram and to offer WeWork All Access, a monthly membership that unlocks access to workspace worldwide, to Recruiter.com's customers.

On October 30, 2017, the Company entered into a License with Recruiter.com, Inc. (“Recruiter”) under which Recruiter granted the Company’s newly created subsidiary, VocaWorks, Inc., a license to use Recruiter’s proprietary software and related intellectual property (the “License”).

CNBC.

Subsequent to the end of the quarter ended September 30, 2016, in order to simplify accounting and the potential exercise of the option to acquire the Company’s current operating assets, the Company formed a California corporation, Truli Media Corp. (“TMC”) as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and thereafter the Company transferred its operating assets to TMC and the Founder assumed the operating liabilities other than the Convertible Notes and public company liabilities. In describing the business of the Company below, the description relates to its historical business of the Company and TMC. Since the Founder acquired TMC on October 30, 2017, the discussion below, except for Liquidity, relates to TMC through October 30, 2017 and to VocaWorks from that point forward.

Business of the Company

The Company is developing a software platform and business under the "VocaWorks" brand name and moving into the rapidly expanding field of online and mobile-enabled staffing and talent acquisition solutions, facilitated in part through its entry into the License with Recruiter. VocaWorks will offer a native mobile iOS app solution, as well as a web-based SaaS platform offering and will facilitate the hiring of personnel, including project-based consultants, focusing initially on specialized technology talent. The initial test launch of the web platform is currently scheduled for release at the end of fiscal 2019 Q1, dependent on software development.

Truli has not generated any revenue from its former or new business strategy and there can be no assurances that we will do so in the future. Except for the period from October 30, 2017, the following discussion relates to TMC and not the Company’s current business.

Results of Operations

The results of operations include TMC through October 30, 2017 and VocaWorks from that date forward.

Three Months Ended DecemberMarch 31, 20172021 Compared to Three Months Ended DecemberMarch 31, 2016:

2020:

Revenue
The Company had norevenue of $3,164,545 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021, as compared to $2,313,123 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020, representing an increase of $851,422 or 36.8%. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in our Recruiters on Demand business of 418% due to significant growth in new customers, some of which we acquired, on July 1, 2020. We also had an increase in our Consulting and Staffing business of 8.3% from internal growth from some of our long-term customers. The increase in revenue was offset partially by a decline in revenue from our Permanent Placement business of 71% as hiring demand was slower which we believe reflected some impact from the presidential election and the COVID-19 pandemic. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will impact our revenue in the subsequent future periods is uncertain at this time.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue was $2,254,910 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021, which included related party costs of $205,261, compared to $1,751,196 for the 2020 three-month period, representing an increase of $503,714 or 28.8% and included related party costs of $655,384. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in compensation expense to support revenue growth. Cost of revenue for the three-month periodsperiod ended DecemberMarch 31, 2017 or 2016. VocaWorks has recently begun to implement its new business plan commencing with the execution of the License agreement with Recruiter. Truli officially launched its website on July 10, 2012 but had not yet generated material revenue through the date of disposition of TMC. Net income (before dividends on preferred stock) of $22,066 and net loss of $178,492 for the three-month periods ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, resulted from the operational activities described below.

Operating expenses totaled $64,867 and $81,351 during the three-month periods ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The increase in operating expenses is the result of the following factors.

The Company incurred marketing, general and administrative expenses of $64,867 and $81,351 for the three-month periods ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, principally comprised of marketing, website development costs, professional fees and consulting fees. The decrease of 20% in 2017 compared to 20162021 was primarily attributable to decreased marketingthird party staffing costs and other fees related to the recruitment and staffing business acquired from Genesys Talent, LLC (“Genesys”), (currently the Company’s Recruiting Solutions division).

Our gross profit for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021 was $909,635, producing a reversalgross profit margin of accounts payable28.7%. Our gross profit for the corresponding 2020 three-month period was $561,927, producing a gross profit margin of 24.3%. The increase in the gross profit margin from 2020 to 2021 reflects the shift in the mix in sales for the period as our Recruiters on Demand revenue has higher gross margins than our staffing revenue. We also had a higher margin within our Staffing business due to the more profitable mix of clients and accrued expensesservices we provided.

Operating Expenses
We had total operating expense of $98,593,$2,833,281 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021 compared to $2,416,452 in the 2020 period, an increase of $416,829 or 17.3%. This increase was primarily due to the higher general and administrative expense.
Sales and Marketing
Our sales and marketing expense for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021 was $57,543 compared to $25,243 for the corresponding three-month period in 2020, which reflects an increase in advertising and marketing expense to help drive growth in our business.
Product Development
Our product development expense for the three-months ended March 31, 2021 decreased to $70,660 from $83,093 for the corresponding period in 2020. This decrease is attributable to timing of launching new development projects. The product development expense included $57,988 and $60,979 for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively paid to Recruiter.com Mauritius, Ltd, a development team employed by Recruiter.com and a related party of the Company.
Amortization of Intangibles and Impairment Expense
For the three-month period ended March 31, 2021, we incurred a non-cash amortization charge of $159,173 as compared to $159,173 for the corresponding period in 2020. The amortization expense relates to the intangible assets acquired from Genesys, now the Company’s Recruiting Solutions division.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expense for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021 includes compensation-related costs for our employees dedicated to general and administrative activities, legal fees, audit and tax fees, consultants and professional services, and general corporate expenses. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2021, our general and administrative expense was $2,545,905, including $502,407 of non-cash stock-based compensation. In 2020, for the corresponding period, our general and administrative expense was $2,148,943 including $870,722 of non-cash stock-based compensation. This increase is attributable primarily to increases in compensation supporting the growth in our Recruiters on Demand business, investor relations, legal and contractor fees of $976,167 partially offset by the decline in non-cash stock-based compensation of $368,315..
Other Income (Expense)
Other income (expense) for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021 was $4,356,420 compared to a loss of $628,080 in the corresponding 2020 period. The primary reason for the increase of $3,728,340 is due to a non-cash initial derivative expense of $3,585,983 and an increase in professional fees.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The following discussion and analysis includes both financial measures in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or GAAP, as well as non-GAAP financial measures. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally included or excluded in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed as supplemental to, and should not be considered as alternatives to net income, operating income, and cash flow from operating activities, liquidity or any other financial measures. They may not be indicative of the historical operating results of Recruiter nor are they intended to be predictive of potential future results. Investors should not consider non-GAAP financial measures in isolation or as substitutes for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Our management uses and relies on EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, which are non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that both management and shareholders benefit from referring to the following non-GAAP financial measures in planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. The gain on extinguishmentOur management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating its financial and operational decision making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparison. Our management recognizes that the non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations because of debtthe described excluded items.
We define Adjusted EBITDA as earnings (or loss) from continuing operations before the items in the table below. Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure of our operating performance because it allows management, investors and analysts to evaluate and assess our core operating results from period-to-period after removing the settlementimpact of debtitems of a non-operational nature that affect comparability.
We have included a reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. We believe that providing the 2017 period. 

non-GAAP financial measures, together with the reconciliation to GAAP, helps investors make comparisons between the Company and other companies. In making any comparisons to other companies, investors need to be aware that companies use different non-GAAP measures to evaluate their financial performance. Investors should pay close attention to the specific definition being used and to the reconciliation between such measure and the corresponding GAAP measure provided by each company under applicable SEC rules.

The principal factors were $2,153,200 from the proceedssale of convertible notes, net of original issue discounts and offering costs. In the 2020 period, financing activities provided $73,553, primarily due to $180,778 from advances from the sale of receivables and $25,000 from a deposit from the sale of preferred stock, of approximately $471,000 and funds advanced by the Founder of approximately $115,000.

The Company had previously funded its operations primarily through advancespartially offset from the Founder. The Company’s recent funding has come throughrepayments of the sale of convertible preferred stock. future revenue.


As of May 10, 2021, the Company had approximately $521,000 in cash on hand. Based on this cash on hand, the Company does not have the capital resources to meet its working capital needs for the next 12 months. We are also party to two lines of credit with current outstanding balances of $0. Advances under each of these lines of credit mature within 12 months of the advances. Availability under these two lines of credit in the amount of $91,300 at September 30, 2020 has been suspended in 2020 due to COVID-19 uncertainty.
The Company’s managementunaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has evaluated whether there is substantial doubt aboutincurred net losses and negative operating cash flows annually. For the Company’s abilitythree-months ended March 31, 2021 and the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company recorded a net loss of $6,280,066 and $2,482,605, respectively. The Company has not yet established an ongoing source of revenue sufficient to cover its operating costs and allow it to continue as a going concern and has determined that substantial doubt existed as of the date of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This determination was based on the following factors: (i) the Company’s available cash as of the date of this filing will not be sufficient to fund its anticipated level of operations for the next 12 months; (ii) the Company may require additional financing for the remainder of fiscal 2018 to continue at its expected level of operations; and (iii) if the Company fails to obtain the needed capital, it will be forced to delay, scale back, or eliminate some or all of its development activities or perhaps cease operations. In the opinion of management, these factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about theconcern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable.
The Company’s historical operating results indicate substantial doubt exists related to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. We can give no assurances that any additional capital that we are able to obtain, if any, will be sufficient to meet our needs, or that any such financing will be obtainable on acceptable terms. If we are unable to obtain adequate capital, we could be forced to cease operations or substantially curtail our commercial activities. These conditions raise substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
To date, private placement offerings have been our primary source of liquidity and we expect to fund future operations through additional securities offerings. We had also entered into arrangements with factoring companies to receive advances against certain future accounts receivable in order to supplement our liquidity. However, the COVID-19 pandemic and debt covenants under outstanding debt and other financing arrangements have affected the Company’s ability to receive advances against its future accounts receivable as discussed in more detail below.

Financing Arrangements
Lines of Credit
At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 we are party to two lines of credit with outstanding balances of $0. Advances under each of these lines of credit mature within 12 months of the advances.

Term Loans
We have outstanding balances of $70,044 and $77,040 pursuant to two term loans as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, which mature in 2023.

Revenue Recognition 
Policy
The Company evaluates and accounts for conversion options embedded in its convertible instrumentsrecognizes revenue in accordance with professional standardsthe Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (“FASB”), Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). Revenues are recognized when control is transferred to customers in amounts that reflect the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for “Accountingthose goods. Revenue recognition is evaluated through the following five steps: (i) identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer; (ii) identification of the performance obligations in the contract; (iii) determination of the transaction price; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (v) recognition of revenue when or as a performance obligation is satisfied.

We generate revenue from the following activities:
Recruiters on Demand: Consists of a consulting and staffing service specifically for the placement of professional recruiters, which we market as Recruiters on Demand. Recruiters on Demand is a flexible, time-based solution that provides businesses of all sizes access to recruiters on an outsourced, virtual basis for help with their hiring needs. As with other consulting and staffing solutions, we procure for our employer clients qualified professional recruiters, and then place them on assignment with our employer clients. Revenue earned through Recruiters on Demand is derived by billing the employer clients for the placed recruiters’ ongoing work at an agreed-upon, time-based rate. We directly source recruiter candidates from our network of recruiters on the Platform, as the recruiter user base of our Platform has the proper skill-set for recruiting and hiring projects. We had previously referred to this service in our revenue disaggregation disclosure in our consolidated financial statements as license and other, but on July 1, 2020, we rebranded as Recruiters on Demand.

Consulting and Staffing: Consists of providing consulting and staffing personnel services to employers to satisfy their demand for long- and short-term consulting and temporary employee needs. We generate revenue by first referring qualified personnel for the employer’s specific talent needs, then placing that personnel with the employer, but with us or our providers acting as the employer of record, and finally, billing the employer for the time and work of our placed personnel on an ongoing basis. Our process for finding candidates for consulting and staffing engagements largely mirrors our process for full-time placement hiring. This process includes employers informing us of open consulting and temporary staffing opportunities and projects, sourcing qualified candidates through the Platform and other similar means, and, finally, the employer selecting our candidates for placement after a process of review and selection. We bill these employer clients for our placed candidates’ ongoing work at an agreed-upon, time-based rate, typically on a weekly schedule of invoicing.

Full-time Placement: Consists of providing referrals of qualified candidates to employers to hire staff for full-time positions. We generate full-time placement revenue by earning one-time fees for each time that employers hire one of the candidates that we refer. Employers alert us of their hiring needs through our Platform or other communications. We source qualified candidate referrals for the employers’ available jobs through independent recruiter users that access our Platform and other tools. We support and supplement the independent recruiters’ efforts with dedicated internal employees we call our internal talent delivery team. Our talent delivery team selects and delivers candidate profiles and resumes to our employer clients for their review and ultimate selection. Upon the employer hiring one or more of our candidate referrals, we earn a “full-time placement fee”, an amount separately negotiated with each employer client. The full-time placement fee is typically either a percentage of the referred candidates’ first year’s base salary or an agreed-upon flat fee.

Marketing Solutions: Our “Marketing Solutions” allow companies to promote their unique brands on our website, the Platform, and our other business-related content and communication. This is accomplished through various forms of online advertising, including sponsorship of digital newsletters, online content promotion, social media distribution, banner advertising, and other branded electronic communications, such as in our quarterly digital publication on recruiting trends and issues. Customers who purchase our Marketing Solutions typically specialize in B2B software and other platform companies that focus on recruitment and human Resources processing. We earn revenue as we complete agreed upon marketing related deliverables and milestones using pricing and terms set by mutual agreement with the customer. In addition to its work with direct clients, the Company categorizes all online advertising and affiliate marketing revenue as Marketing Solutions.
Career Solutions: We provide services to assist job seekers with their career advancement. These services include a resume distribution service which involves promoting these job seekers’ profiles and resumes to assist with their procuring employment, and upskilling and training. Our resume distribution service allows a job seeker to upload his/her resume to our database, which we then distribute to our network of recruiters on the Platform. We earn revenue from a one-time flat fee for this service. We also offer a recruiter certification program which encompasses our recruitmentrelated training content, which we make accessible through our online learning management system. Customers of the recruiter certification program use a self-managed system to navigate through a digital course of study. Upon completion of the program, we issue a certificate of completion and make available a digital badge to certify their achievement for display on their online recruiter profile on the Platform. For approximately the four months following March 31, 2020, the Company provided the recruiter certification program free in response to COVID-19. We partner with Careerdash, a high-quality training company, to provide Recruiter.com Academy, an immersive training experience for career changers.
We have a sales team and sales partnerships with direct employers as well as Vendor Management System companies and Managed Service companies that help create sales channels for Derivative Instrumentsclients that buy staffing, direct hire, and Hedging Activities”.

Professional standards also provide an exception to this rule when the host instrument is deemed to be conventional as defined under professional standards as “The Meaning of “Conventional Convertible Debt Instrument”.

The Company accountstests goodwill for convertible instruments (when it has determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments) in accordance with professional standardsimpairment for its reporting units on an annual basis, or when “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features,” as those professional standards pertain to “Certain Convertible Instruments.” Accordingly, the Company records, when necessary, discounts to convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences betweenevents occur or circumstances indicate the fair value of a reporting unit is below its carrying value.

The Company performs its annual goodwill and impairment assessment on December 31st of each year or earlier if facts and circumstances indicate that an impairment may have occurred.
Long-lived assets
Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the underlying common stock at the commitment datebook value of the note transactionasset may not be recoverable. The Company periodically evaluates whether events and circumstances have occurred that indicate possible impairment.

Derivative Instruments

The Company’s derivative financial instruments consist of embedded derivatives related to the warrants issued with the sale of our preferred stock in 2020 and 2019 and the warrants issued with the sale of convertible debtnotes in 2020 and conversion features embedded within our convertible debt.subsequently in January 2021. The accounting treatment of derivative financial instruments requires that we record the derivatives at their fair values as of the inception date of the debt agreements and at fair value as of each subsequent balance sheet date. Any change in fair value wasis recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense at each balance sheet date. If the fair value of the derivatives was higher at the subsequent balance sheet date, we recorded a non-operating, non-cash charge. If the fair value of the derivatives was lower at the subsequent balance sheet date, we recorded non-operating, non-cash income.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company utilizes Upon the Black-Scholes option-pricing modeldetermination that an instrument is no longer subject to determinederivative accounting, the fair value of optionsthe derivative instrument at the date of such determination will be reclassified to paid in capital.

Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for all stock-based payment awards made to employees, directors and warrants grantedothers based on their fair values and recognizes such awards as compensation expense over the vesting period for employees or service period for non-employees using the straight-line method over the requisite service period for each award as required by FASB ASC Topic No. 718, Compensation-Stock Compensation. If there are any modifications or cancellations of the underlying vested or unvested stock-based awards, we maybe required to accelerate, increase or cancel any remaining unearned stock-based compensation which requires us to make judgments relatingexpense, or record additional expense for vested stock-based awards. Future stock-based compensation expense and unearned stock- based compensation may increase to the inputs required to be included in the model. In this regard, the expected volatility is based on the historical price volatility of the Company’s common stock. The dividend yield represents the Company’s anticipated cash dividend on common stock over the expected life of the stock options. The U.S. Treasury bill rate for the expected life of theextent we grant additional stock options is utilized to determine the risk-free interest rate. The expected term of stock options represents the period of time the stock options granted are expected to be outstanding.

or other stock-based awards.


Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

There have not been any recent changes in accounting pronouncements and ASU issued by the FASB that are of significance or potential significance to the Company except as disclosed below.
In May 2017,December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting”, which clarifies when2019-12, “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” This guidance, among other provisions, eliminates certain exceptions to account for a changeexisting guidance related to the termsapproach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. This guidance also requires an entity to reflect the effect of an enacted change in tax laws or conditionsrates in its effective income tax rate in the first interim period that includes the enactment date of a share-based payment award as a modification. Under the new guidance, modification accounting is required only iflegislation, aligning the fair value, the vesting conditions, or the classificationtiming of recognition of the awardeffects from enacted tax law changes as a resulton the effective income tax rate with the effects on deferred income tax assets and liabilities. Under existing guidance, an entity recognizes the effects of the enacted tax law change on the effective income tax rate in terms or conditions. If an award is not probablethe period that includes the effective date of vesting at the time a change is made, the new guidance clarifies that no new measurement date will be required if there is no change to the fair value, vesting conditions, and classification. Thistax law. ASU will be applied prospectively and2019-12 is effective for fiscal yearsinterim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those years,2020, with early adoption permitted. The Company doesadoption of ASU 2019-12 did not expect this standard to have a material impact on itsour consolidated financial statements.

In July 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. (“ASU’’) 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480) and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815). The amendments in this Update provide guidance about:

1. Accounting for certain financial instruments with down round features

2. Replacement of the indefinite deferral for mandatorily redeemable financial instruments of certain non-public entities and certain non-controlling interests

The amendments in Part

I of this Update change the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features) with down round features. When determining whether certain financial instruments should be classified as liabilities or equity instruments, a down round feature no longer precludes equity classification when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The amendments also clarify existing disclosure requirements for equity-classified instruments. As a result, a freestanding equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded conversion option) no longer would be accounted for as a derivative liability at fair value as a result of the existence of a down round feature. For freestanding equity classified financial instruments, the amendments require entities that present earnings per share (EPS) in accordance with Topic 260 to recognize the effect of the down round feature when it is triggered. That effect is treated as a dividend and as a reduction of income available to common shareholders in basic EPS. Convertible instruments with embedded conversion options that have down round features are now subject to the specialized guidance for contingent beneficial conversion features (in Subtopic 470-20, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options), including related EPS guidance (in Topic 260).

The amendments in Part II of this Update recharacterize the indefinite deferral of certain provisions of Topic 480 that now are presented as pending content in the Codification, to a scope exception. Those amendments do not have an accounting effect.


The amendments in Part I of this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted for all entities, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The amendments in Part 1 of this Update should be applied in either of the following ways: 1. Retrospectively to outstanding financial instruments with a down round feature by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the statement of financial position as of the beginning of the first fiscal year and interim period(s) in which the pending content that links to this paragraph is effective 2. Retrospectively to outstanding financial instruments with a down round feature for each prior reporting period presented in accordance with the guidance on accounting changes in paragraphs 250-10-45-5 through 45-10. The Company has adopted this update during the quarter ended December 31, 2017. The Company has retrospectively applied amendments in Part I of ASU 2017-11 to outstanding financial instruments with a down round feature by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the statement of financial position as of the beginning of the first fiscal year and interim period(s) in which the pending content that links to this paragraph is effective. On the date of adoption, there were no previously issued outstanding financial instruments with a down round feature.

The amendments in Part II of this Update do not require any transition guidance because those amendments do not have an accounting effect.

ITEMITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
(a)       Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We are required to maintain “disclosure

Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, with the assistance of other members of our management, have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures”procedures, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e)Rules 13a – 15(e) and 15d – 15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based on an evaluation1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this ReportQuarterly Report. Based on Form 10-Q,such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer who also serves as our Chief Financial Officer, hasprincipal executive officer and principal financial officer had concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to ensurematerial weaknesses in internal controls over financial reporting.
Although a material weakness identified as of December 31, 2019 (the lack of sufficient independent directors on our Board to maintain audit and other committees consistent with proper corporate governance standards) had been remediated as of December 31, 2020, management has determined that, as of March 31, 2021, there were still material weaknesses in both the information relatingdesign and effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness in internal controls is a deficiency in internal control, or combination of control deficiencies, that adversely affects our ability to initiate, authorize, record, process, or report external financial data reliably in accordance with GAAP such that there is more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of our company, required toannual or interim financial statements that is more than inconsequential will not be disclosed inprevented or detected. In the course of making our Securities and Exchange Commission reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported withinassessment of the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure as a resulteffectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting, we identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting.

  Specifically, we lack a sufficient number of employees to properly segregate duties and provide adequate monitoring during the process leading to and including the preparation of the consolidated financial statements.

The Company anticipates that, prior to December 31, 2021, it will be able to hire a sufficient number of employees to remediate the material weakness identified in the previous paragraph.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There werehas been no changeschange in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15fRules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the three monthsquarter ended DecemberMarch 31, 20172021 that has materially affected, or areis reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
