In DecemberOn October 30, 2013, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement with Dollar Store Services, Inc. to develop, design and build out a retail store which the Company opened in February 2014. The Company opened its second retail store in May 2014. On August 21, 2014 the first store was forced to close due to below code electrical wiring the landlord had provided. Perishable inventory at this store was relocated to the second store as nonperishables were moved into storage along with fixed assets. The Company’s second store was relocated in December of 2015 under lease running through June 2017 and operated on a month to month lease from then until the store was closed in September 2018.

The Company’s business plan includes the buying, selling and distribution of precious metals, or certificates. In time of economic crisis, thereprimarily gold. The Company pursues a “ground to coin” strategy, whereby it seeks to acquire mining assets as well as rights to purchase mining production and to sell these metals primarily through retail channels including their own branded coins. The company emphasizes investment in enduring assets that we believe may be no guaranteeprovide ‘resource to retail’ conversion upside. Our goal is to provide our shareholders with an exceptional opportunity to capture value in the precious metals sector without incurring many of the delivery of precious metals as contractscosts and certificates may exceed available stock.

Currently, the Company anticipates holding its precious metals as a long-term investment. Depending on market conditions, the Company anticipates holding its silver holdings until the market price exceeds $50. Likewise, the Company does not plan to sell its gold holdings unless the market price exceeds $2,500.risks associated with actual mining operations.

USE OF ESTIMATES

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates made by the Company’s management include but are not limited torealizability and valuation of marketable securities, and derivative liabilities, realizability of inventories and value of stock-based transactions.

CONCENTRATION OF RISK

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash. The Company places its cash with high quality banking institutions. The Company did not have cash balances in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

 

INVENTORIES

 

Inventories consist of merchandiseCOLLECTIBLE COINS – MOM’S SILVER SHOP

The Company acquired the Retail Store in October 2018 to enter the market for salecollectible coins. The Company acquires collectible coins from both companies and are statedindividuals and then marks them up for resale. The inventory is recorded at the lower of cost or market determined on a first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. When a purchase contains multiple copies of the same item, they are statedor net realizable value. Inventory can fluctuate in relation to when it is purchased and when it is sold. Collectible coins inventory was $198,632 at average cost.

Inventories – silver consists primarily of silver and small amounts of gold held for sale and are statedMarch 31, 2020 compared to $134,995 at cost. Currently, the Company anticipates holding its precious metals as a long-term investment. Depending on market conditions, the Company anticipates holding its silver holdings until the market price exceeds $50. Likewise, the Company does not plan to sell its gold holdings unless the market price exceeds $2,500.December 31, 2019.

 

At each balance sheet date, the Company evaluates its ending inventory quantities on hand and on order and records a provision for excess quantities and obsolescence. Among other factors, the Company considers historical demand and forecasted demand in relation to the inventory on hand, competitiveness of product offerings, market conditions and product life cycles when determining obsolescence and net realizable value. In addition, the Company considers changes in the market value of components in determining the net realizable value of its inventory. Provisions are made to reduce excess or obsolete inventories to their estimated net realizable values. Once established, write-downs are considered permanent adjustments to the cost basis of the excess or obsolete inventories.

 

REVENUE RECOGNITIONPRECIOUS METALS AND COINS HELD FOR INVESTMENT - SUNSTOCK

Inventories of precious metals and coins held for investment at March 31, 2020 also include $336,908 of bullion and bullion coins and $397,873 at December 31, 2019 and are acquired and initially recorded at fair market value. The fair market value of the bullion and bullion coins is comprised of two components: 1) published market values attributable to the costs of the raw precious metal, and 2) a published premium paid at acquisition of the metal. The premium is attributable to the additional value of the product in its finished goods form and the market value attributable solely to the premium may be readily determined, as it is published by multiple reputable sources. The Company’s inventory is subsequently recorded at fair market values on a quarterly basis. The fair value of the inventory is determined using pricing and data derived from the markets on which the underlying commodities are traded. Precious metals commodities inventories are classified in Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. The Company has continuously experienced a shortage of cash and has had significantly past due obligations. While the Company’s preference is to hold the silver bullion to achieve long-term gains, the bullion is available to pay current obligations

PRECIOUS METALS AND COINS HELD FOR INVESTMENT – SUNSTOCK (CONTINUED)

should the Company not be able to raise cash through issuance of stock or notes payable. Thus, the Company believes that including the silver bullion in current assets under inventory is appropriate.

The change in fair value of the precious metals was included in the financial statements herein as recorded on the Company’s Statements of Operations as an unrealized loss in precious metals of $60,965 for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and $2,337 for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of 3 to 5 years. Any leasehold improvements are amortized at the lesser of the useful life of the asset or the lease term.

LONG-LIVED ASSETS

 

The Company recognizes revenuesreviews the carrying values of its long-lived assets for possible impairment whenever events or changes in accordance withcircumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If the expected future cash flow from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized and measured using the fair value of the related asset. No impairment charges were incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. There can be no assurance, however, that market conditions will not change or demand for the Company’s services will continue, which could result in impairment of long-lived assets in the future.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Certification (ASC”Codification (“ASC”) Topic 605. Accordingly,606,Revenue from Contracts with Customers(“ASC 606”) on January 1, 2019.The new guidance sets forth a new five-step revenue recognition model which replaces the prior revenue recognition guidance in its entirety and is intended to eliminate numerous industry-specific pieces of revenue recognition guidance that have historically existed in U.S. GAAP. The underlying principle of the new standard is that a business or other organization will recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects what it expects to receive in exchange for the goods or services. The standard also requires more detailed disclosures and provides additional guidance for transactions that were not addressed completely in the prior accounting guidance.

The Company’s principal activities from which it generates revenue are product sales. Revenue is measured based on considerations specified in a contract with a customer. A contract exists when it becomes a legally enforceable agreement with a customer. These contracts define each party’s rights, payment terms and other contractual terms and conditions of the sale. Consideration is typically paid at time of sale via credit card, check, or cash when products are sold direct to consumers.

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct product to the customer, which for the Company recognizes revenuesis transfer of a product to customers. Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the goods that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the goods is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. The Company has concluded the sale of product and related shipping and handling are accounted for as the single performance obligation.

The transaction price of a contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists, product delivery and acceptance have occurred,or as the salescustomer receives the benefit of the performance obligation. The transaction price is fixeddetermined based on the consideration to which the Company will be entitled to receive in exchange for transferring goods to the customer. We do not issue refunds.

REVENUE RECOGNITION (CONTINUED)

The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation in a contract by transferring control over a product to a customer when product is shipped based on fulfillment by the Company or determinable,when a point of sale transaction is completed. Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and collectabilityconcurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction, that are collected by the Company from a customer, are excluded from revenue. Shipping and handling costs associated with outbound freight after control over a product has transferred to a customer are accounted for as a fulfillment cost and are included in cost of product sales. The Company does not accept returns.

INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes and the related accounts under the liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the income tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is applied against any net deferred tax asset if, based on available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the transactiondeferred tax assets will not be realized. Therefore, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets. The Company’s income tax provision consists of state minimum taxes.

The Company recognizes any uncertain income tax positions on income tax returns at the largest amount that is assured.more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained.

There are no unrecognized tax benefits included in the balance sheet that would, if recognized, affect the effective tax rate.

The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Company had $0 accrued for interest and penalties on each of the Company’s balance sheets at March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

 

EARNINGS (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE

 

Basic earnings (loss) per share representsrepresent income (loss) available to common stockholders divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period which excluded unvested restricted stock.period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share reflects additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued, as well as any adjustment to income (loss) that would result from the assumed issuance. The potentialcommonpotential common shares that may be issued by the Company relate to outstanding stock options and have been excluded from the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share because they would reduce the reported loss per share and therefore have an anti-dilutive effect.

 

As of June 30, 2017,For the three months ended March 31, 2019, there were no potentially dilutive shares that were excluded fromincluded in the diluted earnings (loss)loss per share as their effect would have been antidilutive for each of the periods presented.years then ended.

 

STOCK BASED COMPENSATIONFor the three months ended March 31, 2020, there were 93,406,593 potentially dilutive shares that were included in the diluted earnings per share.

ASC 718 “Compensation - Stock Compensation” prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all stock-based payment awards to employees, including employee stock options, restricted stock, employee stock purchase plans and stock appreciation rights, may be classified as either equity or liabilities. The Company determines if a present obligation to settle the share-based payment transaction in cash or other assets exists. A present obligation to settle in cash or other assets exists if: (a) the option to settle by issuing equity instruments lacks commercial substance or (b) the present obligation is implied because of an entity’s past practices or stated policies. If a present obligation exists, the transaction is recognized as a liability; otherwise, the transaction is recognized as equity.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of ASC 505-50 “Equity - Based Payments to Non-Employees.” Measurement of share-based payment transactions with non-employees is based onmeasures the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable: (a) the goods or services received; or (b) the equity instruments issued. The fair value of the share-based payment transaction is determined at the earlier of performance commitment date or performance completion date.

In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-11, which eliminates the requirement to classify financial instruments as derivative liabilities simply because they have down round pricing protection. The Company has often issued warrants with down round pricing protection as partcertain of its financing activities. Currently, the Company has convertible notes payable and warrants with down round pricing protection that are classified as derivative liabilities. The Company revalues these warrant tranches each reporting period and records the valuation differences asfinancial assets on a component of other income in the statement of operations. The adoption of this ASU will allow the Company to classify its remaining warrant derivatives as equity and future warrants that might be issued by the Company with down round price protection will qualify as equity rather than derivative liability for balance sheet presentation purposes. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is determining the financial impact of this ASU.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value measurements are determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. U.S. GAAP establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. The establishedrecurring basis. A fair value hierarchy prioritizesis used to rank the usequality and reliability of inputsthe information used to determine fair values. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed in valuation methodologies intoone of the following three levels:categories:

 

Level 1:1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. A quoted price in an active market provides the most reliable evidence of fair value and must be used to measure fair value whenever available.liabilities;

 

Level 2: Significant other observable inputs2 – Inputs other than Level 1 pricesthat are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities;and liabilities, unadjusted quoted prices in the markets that are not active;active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and

 

Level 3: Significant unobservable3 – Unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions aboutare supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an assetfair value of the assets or liability. For example, level 3 inputs would relate to forecasts of future earnings and cash flows used in a discounted future cash flows method.liabilities.

 

TheAt March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company’s financial instruments consistinclude cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable. The carrying amount of cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses, notes payablereceivable and convertible notes payable. The carrying value for all such instrumentsaccounts payable approximates fair value due to the short-term naturematurities of thethese instruments.

The Company uses Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy to measure the fair value of the derivative liabilities and revalues its derivative convertible notes at every reporting period and recognizes gains or losses in the statements of operations that are attributable to the change in the fair value of the derivative convertible notes, preferred stock and warrant liabilities.

 

NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN

 

The Company has not posted operating income since inception. It has an accumulated deficit of approximately $36,000,000$60,092,129 as of September 30, 2017.March 31, 2020. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations, which it has not been able to accomplish to date, and /or obtain additional financing from its stockholders and/or other third parties.

 

These condensed and consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to meet its obligations and continue its operations for the next fiscal year. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon financial support from its stockholders, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, successfully locating and negotiatingnegotiate with an acquisition target.a business entity for the combination of that target company with the Company.

There is no assurance that the Company will ever be profitable. The condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

In the first quarter of 2020, outstanding convertible notes payable balances as of December 31, 2019, were either converted to common stock or paid off. In relation to that, the Company has had discussions with a third party in regards to raising funds through a private placement of equity which, if it occurs, will provide the Company with funds to expand its operations and likely eliminate the going concern issue.

NOTE 3 - RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

 

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”)December 2019, FASB issued Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”)Update (ASU) No. 2014-09. “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” This new standard will replace2019-12,Simplifying the existing revenue recognition guidanceAccounting for Income Taxes (Topic 740). The amendments in U.S. GAAP. the update simplify the accounting for income taxes by removing the following exceptions:

1Exception to the incremental approach for intraperiod tax allocation when there is a loss from continuing operations and income or a gain from other items (for example, discontinued operations or other comprehensive income).
2Exception to the requirement to recognize a deferred tax liability for equity method investments when a foreign subsidiary becomes an equity method investment.
3Exception to the ability not to recognize a deferred tax liability for foreign subsidiary when a foreign equity method investment becomes a subsidiary.
4Exception to the general methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period when a year-to-date loss exceeds the anticipated loss for the year.

The core principle ofamendments in the ASU isupdate also simplify the recognition of revenueaccounting for income taxes by doing the transfer of goods and services equal to the amount an entity expects to receive for those goods and services. This ASU requires additional disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and estimates and changesfollowing:

1Requiring that an entity recognize a franchise tax (or similar tax) that is partially based on income as an income-based tax and account for any incremental amount incurred as a non-income-based tax.
2Requiring that an entity evaluate when a step up in those estimates. For public entities, the tax basis of goodwill should be considered part of the business combination in which the book goodwill was originally recognized and when it should be considered a separate transaction.
3Specifying that an entity is not required to allocate the consolidated amount of current and deferred tax expense to a legal entity that is not subject to tax in its separate financial statements. However, an entity may elect to do so (on an entity-by-entity basis) for a legal entity that is both not subject to tax and disregarded by the taxing authority.
4Requiring that an entity reflect the effect of an enacted change in tax laws or rates in the annual effective tax rate computation in the interim period that includes the enactment date.
5Making minor Codification improvements for income taxes relating to employee stock ownership plans and investments in qualified affordable housing projects accounted for by using the equity method.

The amendments in this updateASU are effective for annual reporting periodsfiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including2020, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The Company believes that reporting period. While we are still currently assessing the impactadoption of the new standard, our revenue is generated from the sale of finished product to customers. Those sales predominantly containASU will not have a single delivery element and revenue is recognized at a single point in time when ownership, risks and rewards transfer. The timing of revenue recognition for these product sales are not materially impacted by the new standard. We will update certain disclosures, as applicable to meet the requirements of the new guidance.material effect on its financial statements.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued its new lease accounting guidance in ASU No. 2016-02, “LeasesLeases (Topic 842).” This Under the new standard establishes a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lesseeguidance, lessees will be required to record a ROU asset and a lease liability onrecognize the balance sheetfollowing for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases) at the commencement date: A lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis; and a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. Under the new guidance, lessor accounting is largely unchanged. Certain targeted improvements were made to align, where necessary, lessor accounting with termsthe lessee accounting model and ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.

NOTE 3 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (CONTINUED)

The new lease guidance simplified the accounting for sale and leaseback transactions primarily because lessees must recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. Lessees will no longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating,provided with classification affectinga source of off-balance sheet financing. Public business entities should apply the pattern of expense recognitionamendments in the income statement. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoptionapplication is permitted. ALessees (for capital and operating leases) must apply a modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available.statements. The Company is currently evaluatingmodified retrospective approach would not require any transition accounting for leases that expired before the earliest comparative period presented. Lessees may not apply a full retrospective transition approach. The primary impact to the financial position upon adoption was the recognition, on a discounted basis, of the minimum commitments on the balance sheet under our noncancelable operating lease resulting in the recording of a right of use asset and lease obligation.

The following table summarizes the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on the Company’s financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which amends ASC Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation. The ASU involves several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, forfeitures, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and classification on the statement of cash flows. Certain of these changes are required to be applied retrospectively, while other changes are required to be applied prospectively. ASU 2016-09 is effective for public business entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption will be permitted in any interim or annual period, with any adjustments reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. As a result of the adoption of this ASU as of January 1, 2017, we have made an entity-wide accounting policy election to account for forfeitures when they occur. There is no cumulative-effect adjustment as a result of the adoption of this ASU as our estimated forfeiture rate prior to adoption of this ASU was 0%. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact842 on our condensed financial statements and related disclosures.consolidated balance sheet upon adoption on January 1, 2019:

 

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes. Current U.S. GAAP requires an entity to separate deferred income tax liabilities and assets into current and noncurrent amounts in a classified statement of financial position. To simplify the presentation of deferred income taxes, the amendments in this update require that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. The amendments in this update apply to all entities that present a classified statement of financial position. The current requirement that deferred tax liabilities and assets of a tax-paying component of an entity be offset and presented as a single amount is not affected by the amendments in this update. The amendments in this update will align the presentation of deferred income tax assets and liabilities with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and are effective for fiscal years after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those annual periods. The adoption of this ASU as of January 1, 2017 did not have a material impact on our condensed financial statements and related disclosures.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory. Topic 330. Inventory, currently requires an entity to measure inventory at the lower of cost or market. Market could be replacement cost, net realizable value, or net realizable value less an approximately normal profit margin. The amendments apply to all other inventory, which includes inventory that is measured using first-in, first-out (FIFO) or average cost. An entity should measure in scope inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. The amendments in this ASU more closely align the measurement of inventory in U.S. GAAP with the measurement of inventory in IFRS. For public business entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments should be applied prospectively with earlier application permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. The adoption of this ASU as of January 1, 2017 did not have a material impact on our condensed financial statements and related disclosures.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. This ASU 2014-15 describes how an entity should assess its ability to meet obligations and sets rules for how this information should be disclosed in the condensed consolidated financial statements. The standard provides accounting guidance that will be used along with existing auditing standards. The ASU 2014-15 is effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016. Early application is permitted. The adoption of this ASU as of January 1, 2017 did not have a material impact on our condensed financial statements and related disclosures.

NOTE 710 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES

 

The Company evaluates its debt instruments, or other contracts to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for under the relevant sections of ASC Topic 815-40,Derivative Instruments and Hedging: Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity. The result of this accounting treatment could be that the fair value of a financial instrument is classified as a derivative instrument and is marked-to-market at each balance sheet date and recorded as a liability. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, the change in fair value is recorded in the statement of operations as other income or other expense. Upon conversion or exercise of a derivative instrument, the instrument is marked to fair value at the conversion date and then that fair value is reclassified to equity. Financial instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to reclassification under ASC Topic 815-40 are reclassified to a liability account at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date.

 

Certain of the Company’s embedded conversion features on debt are treated as derivatives for accounting purposes. The Company estimates the fair value of these embedded conversion features using the Black-Scholes Merton option pricing model (“Black-Scholes”). Based on these provisions, the Company has classified all conversion features and warrants as derivative liabilities at September 30, 2017.

For the Three
months ended
September 30, 2017
Annual Dividend yield0%
Expected life (years)0.04

The Company applies the accounting standard that provides guidance for determining whether an equity-linked financial instrument, or embedded feature, is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The standard applies to any freestanding financial instrument or embedded features that have the characteristics of a derivative, and to any freestanding financial instruments that are potentially settled in an entity’s own common stock.

 

From time to time, the Company has issued notes with embedded conversion features. Certain of the embedded conversion features contain price protection or anti-dilution features that result in these instruments being treated as derivatives.derivatives for accounting purposes. Accordingly, the Company has estimated the fair value of these embeddedclassified all conversion features using Black-Scholesas derivative liabilities. All convertible notes with the following assumptions:derivative liabilities were either converted to common stock or were settled by payment as of March 31, 2020.

Going Concern

 

The Company has not posted operating income since inception. It has an accumulated deficit of approximately $36,000,000$60,092,129 as of September 30, 2017.March 31, 2020. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations, which it has not been able to accomplish to date, and /orand/or obtain additional financing from its stockholders and/or other third parties.

 

These Condensedcondensed financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to meet its obligations and continue its operations for the next fiscal year. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon financial support from its stockholders, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing to continue operations, successfully locating and negotiating with an acquisition target.

 

There is no assurance that the Company will ever be profitable. The condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

In the first quarter of 2020, outstanding convertible notes payable balances as of December 31, 2019, were either converted to common stock or paid off. In relation to that, the Company has had discussions with a third party in regards to raising funds through a private placement of equity which, if it occurs, will provide the Company with funds to expand its operations and likely eliminate the going concern issue.

Critical Accounting Policies

 

There have been no material changes from the critical accounting policies as previously discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which amends ASC Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation. The ASU involves several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, forfeitures, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and classification on the statement of cash flows. Certain of these changes are required to be applied retrospectively, while other changes are required to be applied prospectively. ASU 2016-09 is effective for public business entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption will be permitted in any interim or annual period, with any adjustments reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. As a result of the adoption of this ASU as of January 1, 2017, we have made an entity-wide accounting policy election to account for forfeitures when they occur. There is no cumulative-effect adjustment as a result of the adoption of this ASU as our estimated forfeiture rate prior to adoption of this ASU was 0%. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our condensed financial statements and related disclosures.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes. Current U.S. GAAP requires an entity to separate deferred income tax liabilities and assets into current and noncurrent amounts in a classified statement of financial position. To simplify the presentation of deferred income taxes, the amendments in this update require that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position. The amendments in this update apply to all entities that present a classified statement of financial position. The current requirement that deferred tax liabilities and assets of a tax-paying component of an entity be offset and presented as a single amount is not affected by the amendments in this update. The amendments in this update will align the presentation of deferred income tax assets and liabilities with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and are effective for fiscal years after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those annual periods. The adoption of this ASU as of January 1, 2017 did not have a material impact on our condensed financial statements and related disclosures.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, Inventory (Topic 330): Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory. Topic 330. Inventory, currently requires an entity to measure inventory at the lower of cost or market. Market could be replacement cost, net realizable value, or net realizable value less an approximately normal profit margin. The amendments apply to all other inventory, which includes inventory that is measured using first-in, first-out (FIFO) or average cost. An entity should measure in scope inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. The amendments in this ASU more closely align the measurement of inventory in U.S. GAAP with the measurement of inventory in IFRS. For public business entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments should be applied prospectively with earlier application permitted as of the beginning of an interim or annual reporting period. The adoption of this ASU as of January 1, 2017 did not have a material impact on our condensed financial statements and related disclosures.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. This ASU 2014-15 describes how an entity should assess its ability to meet obligations and sets rules for how this information should be disclosed in the condensed consolidated financial statements. The standard provides accounting guidance that will be used along with existing auditing standards. The ASU 2014-15 is effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016. Early application is permitted. The adoption of this ASU as of January 1, 2017 did not have a material impact on our condensed financial statements and related disclosures.2019.

The Company’s officer, its president, conducted an evaluation ofMarch 31, 2020, management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2017 based on the criteria establishfor effective internal control over financial reporting established in the 2013 Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.Commission and SEC guidance on conducting such assessments. Based on thisthat evaluation, managementthey concluded that, during the period covered by this report, such internal controls and procedures were not effective to detect the inappropriate application of GAAP rules as more fully described below.

A control system can provide only reasonably, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are metadversely affected its internal controls and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues have been detected.may be considered to be material weaknesses.

 

Material Weaknesses:Weaknesses:

 

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

 

The material weaknesses identified are:

 

1. Inadequate number of personnel that could accurately and timely record and report the Company’s financial statements in accordance with GAAP;GAAP.

 

2. We did not employ an adequate number of people to ensure a control environment that would allow for the accurate and timely reporting of the financial statements.

 

2.3. Ineffective controls to ensure that the accounting for transactions are recorded in accordance with GAAP financial statements;statements.

 

During the period ended September 30, 2017, adjustments were made4. We have not performed a risk assessment and mapped our processes to the general ledger, which collectively could have a material effect on the financial statements.control objectives.

 

Notwithstanding the existence of these material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, we believe that the financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Further, we do not believe the material weaknesses identified had an impact on prior financial statements.

 

Remediation:

 

As part of our ongoing remedial efforts, we have and will continue to, among other things:

 

1. ExpandedExpand our accounting policy and controls organization by recently hiring qualified accounting and finance personnel;

 

2. Increase our efforts to educate both our existing and expanded accounting policy and control organization on the application of the internal control structure;

 

3. Emphasize with management the importance of our internal control structure;

 

4. Seek outside consulting services where our existing accounting policy and control organization believes the complexity of the existing exceeds our internal capabilities; andcapabilities.

 

5. Plan to implement improved accounting systems.

 

We believe that the foregoing actions will improve our internal control over financial reporting, as well as our disclosure controls and procedures. WeWhen funds permit, we intend to perform such procedures and commit such resources as necessary to continue to allow us to overcome or mitigate these material weaknesses such that we can make timely and accurate quarterly and annual financial filings until such time as those material weaknesses are fully addressed and remediated.
