CAUTIONARY NOTE ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Report”) contains forward-looking statements. All statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q other than statements of historical fact, including statements regarding our future results of operations and financial position, our business strategy and plans, and our objectives for future operations, are forward-looking statements. The words “believe,” “may,” “will,” “estimate,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “expect,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. We have based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy, short-term and long-term business operations and objectives, and financial needs. These forward-looking statements are subject to several risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, including those described and incorporated by reference in, Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These factors include:

● Statutory preemptive rights which our shareholders are provided under Texas law, our failure to comply with such rights in the past, dilution caused by the exercise of such rights, and potential penalties or liability in connection therewith, as well as our plans to terminate such rights in the future;

 

● Penalties and other amounts which may be payable for our failure to comply with the covenants in, and time periods set forth in, our March/April 2021 private offering documents, including ability to timely terminate the statutory preemptive rights which currently apply under Texas law;

● That we have incurred net losses since inception, our need for additional funding, the substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern, and the terms of any future funding we raise;

● That COVID-19 has materially adversely affected our operations and may continue to have a material adverse impact on our operating results in the future;

● Our dependence on current management and our ability to attract and retain qualified employees;

● Competition for our products;

● Our ability to develop new products, improve current products and innovate;

● Unpredictability in our operating results;

● Our ability to retain existing licensees and add new licensees;

● Risks associated with data breaches, security flaws, unauthorized access to our and our customers’ (if any) and the customers of our licensees’ systems and products, hacking risks, risks of intentional disruption of our products or services, product failures and the effect of such failures and other events on our brand and operating results;

● Outages in third party infrastructure on which we rely;

● Customer defaults and delays in payment;

● Delays in product development, our failure to predict changes in technology, and actual or perceived defects or vulnerabilities in our products;

● Our ability to manage our growth;

● Our ability to protect our intellectual property (IP), enforce our IP rights and defend against claims that we infringed on the IP of others;

1
Table of Contents

● Risks related to the volatile and sporadic trading of our common stock, dilution caused by future offerings, anti-dilutive rights which exist relating to our securities, over-hang, the effect of substantial sales of our common stock, the anti-dilutive rights of the Warrants as set forth in the Purchase Agreement, and additional restrictions put on the sale of our common stock because of it being a ‘penny stock’;

● Our compliance with various rules and regulations, penalties we may face for non-compliance, and the risk of new, more costly, or more restrictive rules and regulations;

● Our ability to maintain effective controls and procedures;

● Restrictions on our ability to issue new securities and amounts required to be paid to our CEO upon certain sales of the Company;

● The Board of Directors’ ability to designate blank check preferred stock without further shareholder approval;

● Risks associated with future acquisitions and/or with our failure to grow by acquisition; and

● Risks associated with pending and/or future litigation, lawsuits, and/or regulatory claims.

Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks emerge from time to time. It is not possible for our management to predict all risks, nor can we assess the impact of all factors on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements we may make. Considering these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the future events and trends discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may not occur and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements.

These cautionary statements qualify all forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf. We undertake no obligation to revise or publicly release the results of any revision to these forward-looking statements, except as required by law. Given these risks and uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.

NOTE 2 – NEW EQUITY ISSUANCE

From March 15, 2015,31, 2021, to April 16, 2021, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), with certain accredited investors (the “Purchasers”), pursuant to which the Company changed its namesold the Purchasers an aggregate of 55,549,615 (a) shares of common stock (“Offering Shares”), and (b) warrants to Cipherloc Corporation.purchase shares of common stock of the Company (“Offering Warrants”). The name change became effectiveOffering Shares and Offering Warrants were sold at a price of $0.18 per combined Offering Share and Offering Warrant (the “Offering Price”), which was equal to 80% of the closing sales price of the Company’s common stock on the OTCQB Market on March 30, 2021, which was the last trading day prior to the initial entry into the Purchase Agreement.

The sale of the Offering Shares and Offering Warrants occurred at four closings as follows:

SCHEDULE OF OFFERING SHARES AND OFFERING WARRANTS

Date of Closing Shares Sold  Warrants Sold  Gross Proceeds 
March 31, 2021  35,757,942   35,757,942  $6,436,430 
April 7, 2021  7,513,893   7,513,893  $1,352,501 
April 9, 2021  8,683,336   8,683,336  $1,563,000 
April 16, 2021  3,594,444   3,594,444  $647,000 
   55,549,615   55,549,615  $9,998,931 

Total gross proceeds from the offering of the Offering Shares and Offering Warrants (the “Private Offering”) were approximately $10 million (as shown above) and the Private Offering is now closed.

Paulson Investment Company, LLC (the “Placement Agent”), served as placement agent for the Private Offering and the Company entered into a Placement Agent Agreement with the Placement Agent in connection therewith (the “Placement Agreement”, discussed below). As partial consideration for the services provided by the Amended CertificatePlacement Agent, the Company granted the Placement Agent and its assigns, warrants to purchase shares of common stock (“Placement Warrants”, discussed in greater detail below).

We agreed to use the proceeds from the Private Offering for working capital purposes and not to use such proceeds: (a) for the satisfaction of any portion of the Company’s debt (other than (i) payment of trade payables in the ordinary course of the Company’s business and prior practices and (ii) the repayment of funds received by the Company under the “paycheck protection program” of the CARES Act), (b) for the redemption of any common stock or common stock equivalents, (c) for the settlement of any outstanding litigation, or (d) in violation of applicable regulations.

In connection with the Private Offering, each of our officers and directors entered into Lock-Up Agreements whereby they agreed not to sell, offer, or transfer, any of our securities which they hold for 180 days after the end of the Private Offering, subject to customary exceptions.

Table of Contents

The Offering Warrants, which are evidenced by Common Stock Purchase Offering Warrants (the “Warrant Agreements”), have an exercise price of $0.36 per share (200% of the Offering Price), and may be exercised at any time from the grant date of the Offering Warrants (i.e., March 31, 2021, April 7, 2021, April 9, 2021, or April 16, 2021, as applicable), until five years thereafter. The Offering Warrants have cashless exercise rights if when exercised, a registration statement registering the shares of March 23, 2015.common stock issuable upon exercise thereof, is not effective with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The exercise of each of the Offering Warrants is subject to a beneficial ownership limitation of 4.99%, preventing such exercise by the holder(s) thereof, if such exercise would result in such holder(s) and their affiliates, exceeding ownership of 4.99% of our common stock. The Offering Warrants contain anti-dilution rights such that if we issue, or are deemed to have issued, common stock or common stock equivalents at a price less than the then exercise price of the Offering Warrants, the exercise price of the Offering Warrants is automatically reduced to such lower value, and the number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise thereafter is adjusted proportionately so that the aggregate exercise price payable upon exercise of such Offering Warrants is the same prior to and after such reduction in exercise price.

Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement (“RR Agreement”), we agreed to file a registration statement to register the sale of the Offering Shares and the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, prior to the 10th day after the end of the Private Offering (provided that the Placement Agent agreed that such 10 day period began on April 19, 2021, regardless of the actual closing date of the Private Offering), and to obtain effectiveness of such registration statement by the 60th calendar day following the date of the RR Agreement (March 31, 2021)(provided that in the event we are required to file any additional registration statements under the RR Agreement, such required effectiveness date is the 90th day after such registration statement is required to be filed), which registration statement was timely filed and was timely declared effective.

On January 11, 2021, we entered into a Placement Agent Agreement with the Placement Agent, pursuant to which we engaged the Placement Agent as the Company’s exclusive placement agent in connection with the Private Offering. Pursuant to the Placement Agent Agreement, we agreed to pay the Placement Agent a cash commission of 13% of the gross proceeds received in the Private Offering ($1,334,861), and to grant the Placement Agent or its assigns, a warrant to purchase 15% of the Offering Shares sold in the Private Offering (i.e., warrants to purchase 8,332,439 shares in aggregate), which were granted to the Placement Agent effective on April 16, 2021. The Placement Agent Agreement has a term expiring on August 31, 2021, and includes a three-year tail period, pursuant to which the Placement Agent is due the same fees payable in connection with the Private Offering, in the event the Company sells any securities to any investor or potential investor who received Private Offering documents as part of the Private Offering. In addition to the compensation payable upon completion of the Private Offering, we paid the Placement Agent a $35,000 cash retainer.

The Placement Warrants are evidenced by Purchase Warrants, have a term of 10 years (i.e., through April 16, 2031), an exercise price of $0.18 per share (the Offering Price), and cashless exercise rights. We are required to pay the Placement Agent liquidated damages of $10 per day for each $1,000 of shares not timely delivered upon the exercise of the Placement Warrants. The Placement Warrants include a weighted average anti-dilution right in the event we issue any shares of common stock or equivalents with a value less than the then exercise price.

Our highly innovative, patented polymorphic encryption technology is designed to enable an iron-clad layer of protection to be added to existing solutions.Management has evaluated the warrants for derivative status and concluded the warrants are freestanding equity instruments.

NOTE 23 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The accompanying interim unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.

Operating results for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2017June 30, 2021, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending September 30, 2018.2021. Notes to the unaudited interim financial statements that would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the audited financial statements for the year ended September 30, 20172020, have been omitted; this report should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the footnotes thereto for the fiscal year ended September 30, 20172020, included within the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has incurred losses from operations and has an accumulated deficit at December 31, 2017 of $51,614,878. The Company issued two convertible notes, which may be repaid within 180 days from issuance, on September 26, 2017 and December 14, 2017, respectively, aggregating $849,000. If not repaid, the conversion features become variable, hindering our ability to raise capital in the future on terms favorable to the Company. The Company’s continued existence is dependent upon our ability to obtain additional funding to explore potential strategic relationships, complete development and marketing of the Company’s technologies, and operate the business. These factors raise doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Management is currently in the process of raising capital, which is expected to be completed by May 2018. Management intends to use the proceeds from this financing to repay the two outstanding convertible notes. There are no assurances that management will be successful in raising capital to be able to achieve the needs of the business. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 4 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Significant accounting policies are as follows:

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an originala maturity at the time of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At December 31, 2017June 30, 2021, and September 30, 2017,2020, cash and cash equivalents includeincludes cash on hand and cash in the bank. The Company maintains its cash inbalance of such accounts, held by large, globally recognized banks which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits, as guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC)(“FDIC”). The FDIC insures these deposits up to $250,000.$250,000. At December 31, 2017 and SeptemberJune 30, 2017, none2021, $6,598,508 of the Company’s cash balance was uninsured. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

Convertible Debt and Embedded Derivatives

Convertible debt is accounted for under the guidelines established by Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 470-20,Debt with Conversion and Other Options. ASC 470-20 governs the calculation of an embedded beneficial conversion, a derivative instrument, which is treated as an additional discount to the instruments where derivative accounting does not apply. This applies during the period for which embedded conversion features are either fixed, contingently convertible, or cash or net settlement is in control of the Company. When equity instruments, such as warrants, are issued with convertible debt, the net proceeds from the transaction are allocated to the convertible debt and equity instruments based on their relative fair values. The proceeds allocated to the equity instruments may reduce the carrying value of the convertible debt, and such discount is amortized to interest expense over the term of the debt. The amount of the warrants and beneficial conversion feature will reduce the carrying value of the debt instrument to zero, but no further. The Company has the option to pay the convertible notes at a premium ranging from 0% to 140% within the first six (6) months before they become convertible. The discount relating to the initial recording of the original issue discounts, issue costs, warrants and beneficial conversion feature are accreted, together with the premium, over the estimated term of the debt, which is generally 180 days from the date of issuance. We initially accounted for the embedded conversion feature in the FirstFire convertible note (see Note 5) in equity since management fully expected, at the time the loan was made, to repay the note upon its scheduled maturity.

Many of the conversion features embedded in the Company’s notes become variable upon the event of default or upon the passage of time in the event the Company does not repay the notes, at a premium, at 180 days from issuance of the note. If the conversion price is adjusted based on a discount to the market price of the Company’s common stock, the number of shares upon conversion is potentially unlimited. In the event we cannot control the net share settlement and cash settlement, we record the embedded conversion feature as a derivate instrument, at fair value. The excess of fair value of the embedded conversion feature, together with the original issue discounts, warrants, and issue costs over the face value of the debt, is recorded as an immediate charge in the accompanying statements of operations and cash flows. Each reporting period, the Company will compute the estimated fair value of derivatives and record changes to operations. The discounts are accreted over the term of the debt, which is generally nine months after the notes become convertible, using the effective interest method. We accounted for the embedded conversion features in the FirstFire and Peak One convertible notes (see Note 5) as derivative liabilities in December 2017, even though we fully expect to repay the notes upon their scheduled maturity, because we have lost control of that ability as a result of the issuance of the Peak One note, and the financial burden these notes have placed on the Company. We continue to believe we will repay these notes before they become convertible after 180 days.

ASC 470-50,Extinguishments, require entities to record an extinguishment when the terms of the original note are significantly modified, defined as a greater than 10% change in expected cash flows. As a result of modifications made to one of the Company’s convertible notes during the reporting period, we recorded a loss as reported in the accompanying statements of operations and cash flows.

Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Common Share

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. The weighted average number of shares is calculated by taking the number of shares outstanding and weighting them by the amount of time that they were outstanding. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options, warrants, and other commitments to issue common stock were exercised or equity awards vest, resulting in the issuance of common stock that could share in the earnings of the Company. As of December 31, 2017June 30, 2021, there were 0 preferred shares of stock outstanding and Septemberas of June 30, 2017,2020, the Company had 10,000,0001,000,000 shares of preferred stock outstanding, which arewere convertible into 15,000,0001,500,000 shares of common stock. The Company’s convertible notes are not yet convertible, and management expects to repay the notes.

Diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share during periods where net losses are incurred since the inclusion of the potential common stock equivalents would be anti-dilutive as a resultbecause of the net loss. During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2021, warrants to purchase 79,461,481 shares of common stock were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share because their effect would be anti-dilutive. During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2020, warrants to purchase 24,216,866 shares of common stock and 1,000,000 shares of convertible preferred stock were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share because their effect would be anti-dilutive.

Research and Development and Software Development Costs

Capitalization of certain software development costs are recorded after the determination of technological feasibility. Based on our product development process, technological feasibility is determined upon the completion of a working model. To date, costs incurred by us from the completion of the working model to the point at which the product is ready for general release do not have technological feasibility. Accordingly, we have chargedThe Company expenses all such costs to research and development expense in the period incurred.costs, including patent and software development costs. Our research and development costs incurred for the threenine months ended December 31, 2017June 30, 2021, and 20162020 were $114,852$465,974 and $599,959,$1,544,205, respectively.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenues in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” and a series of amendments which together we identify as “ASC Topic 606”.

Central to the new revenue recognition guidance is a five-step revenue recognition model that requires reporting entities to:

1.Identify the contract,
2.Identify the performance obligations of the contract,
3.Determine the transaction price of the contract,
4.Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations, and
5.Recognize revenue.

The Company accounts for a promise to provide a customer with a right to access the Company’s intellectual property as a performance obligation satisfied over time because the customer will simultaneously receive and consume the benefit from the entity’s performance of providing access to its intellectual property as the performance occurs.

During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2019, the Company entered into a one-year agreement with SoundFi LLC (“SoundFi”) which automatically renews for subsequent one-year periods unless otherwise terminated by either party. Cipherloc received $25,000 from SoundFi during the year ended September 30, 2020.

The Company executed an annual software licensing agreement with Castle Shield during the year ended September 30, 2020, which also includes auto-renewing terms. Castle Shield made a $10,000 payment to the Company based on the terms of their agreement with Cipherloc.

During the nine-months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recognized $15,417 in licensing revenue from the SoundFi and Castle Shield agreements.

Recent Accounting AnnouncementsPronouncements

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”FASB) issues Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”)ASUs to amend the authoritative literature in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”ASC). There have been a number ofseveral ASUs to date that amend the original text of the ASC. TheASCs. Other than those discussed below, the Company believes those updates issued-to-dateASUs issued to date either (i) provide supplemental guidance, (ii) are technical corrections, (iii) are not applicable to the Company or (iv) are not expected to have a significant impact on the Company.

NOTE 5In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. This guidance removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and enhances and simplifies various aspects of the income tax accounting guidance, including requirements such as tax basis step-up in goodwill obtained in a transaction that is not a business combination, ownership changes in investments, and interim-period accounting for enacted changes in tax law. This standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2019-12 on its financial statements, which is effective for the Company in its fiscal year and interim periods beginning on October 1, 2021.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurements (Topic 820)CONVERTIBLE NOTE PAYABLEDisclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, to modify the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The ASU removes certain disclosure requirements related to transfers between fair value hierarchy levels and valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. It modifies certain disclosure requirements for investments in entities that calculate net asset value. It adds certain disclosure requirements regarding gains and losses for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements and unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019.

FirstFire Global Opportunities Fund, LLCThe Company adopted ASU 2018-13 on October 1, 2020, and the adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

On September 26,In July 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-11—Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480), and Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): I. Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features and II. Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests with a Scope Exception. ASU 2017-11 eliminates the requirement that a down round feature precludes equity classification when assessing whether an instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. A freestanding equity-linked financial instrument no longer would be accounted for as a derivative liability at fair value because of the existence of a down round feature. The Company has adopted ASU 2017-11 and implemented the pronouncement retrospectively. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on its financial statements.

As a result, a freestanding equity-linked financial instrument no longer would be accounted for as a derivative liability at fair value because 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.

During March and April 2021, the Company issued a convertible note to FirstFire Global Opportunities Fund, LLC (“FirstFire”) with a principal amount of $330,000, which includes an original issue discount of $30,000. The Company incurred $8,500 in direct costs. The note accrues interest at 5% per annum and matures on March 26, 2018, six months following the issuance date. The note was convertible at $2.00 per share, subject to adjustment. The Company issued 50,000 shares of its common stock, as well as warrants to purchase an additional 165,00063,882,054 shares of common stock at $4.50 per share with a term of two years. The note was amended on December 20, 2017, which reduced the conversion price of the note to $1.00 per share, subject to adjustment, reducedthat have anti-dilution rights that provide for adjustments in the exercise price and number of the warrants from $4.50 to $2.00 and required the Company to issueshares exercisable if there is an additional 87,500 sharesissuance of common stock to FirstFire, which resulted in an extinguishment loss (see below).

The note, as amended, provides the holder with the right, at any time on or after the note’s maturity date, to convert all or a portion of the outstanding principal balance and accrued interest to shares of the Company’s common stock equivalents at a conversionlower price of $1.00 per share, subject to certain adjustments to the conversion price under certain circumstances. In the event of default, the conversion price shall equal the lower of $1.00 per share or 70% multiplied by the lowest bid price of the Company’s common stock during the 25 trading days preceding the conversion date.

On December 31, 2017, the Company recognized a loss of $48,911 related to the change in fair value of the FirstFire derivative liability. The change in fair value was calculated using the stock price as of December 31, 2017 of $1.18 and an exercise price of $0.70, which is 70% multiplied by the lowest bid price of the Company’s common stock during the preceding 25 trading days, per the terms of the note.

Upon amendment of the FirstFire note, the Company recorded a debt discount of $330,000. The Company amortized $37,813 of the debt discount to interest expense during the three months ending December 31, 2017. The remaining debt discount of $292,187 as of December 31, 2017 will be amortized to interest expense over the remaining term of the note. Total interest expense related to the FirstFire note, including the debt discount amortization prior to the amendment, was $178,700 for the three months ending December 31, 2017.

The Company incurred $27,400 in direct costs. The note matures three years from the issuance date and provides the holder with the right to convert all or a portion of the outstanding principal balance to shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $1.00 per share, subject to certain adjustments to the conversion price under certain circumstances. If an event of default has occurred or if the conversion occurs more than 180 days from the issuance date, the conversion price shall equal the lower $1.00 per share or 70% of the lowest traded price of the Company’s common stock during the 20 trading days preceding the conversion date. However, if the Company’s common stock is not eligible for clearing through the Depository Trust Company’s Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission system on the conversion date, the conversion price shall equal the lower of $1.00 per share or 65% of the lowest traded price of the Company’s common stock during the 20 trading days preceding the conversion date.

Together with the convertible note, the Company also issued 275,000 shares of its common stock, as well as warrants to purchase an additional 75,000 shares of common stock at $2.00 per share with a term of five years. The Company accounted for the convertible note to Peak One using derivative accounting and recognized a derivative liability of $267,750 as of the note’s issuance date.

The Company amortized $4,645 of the debt discount to interest expense during the three months ending December 31, 2017. The remaining debt discount of $295,355 as of December 31, 2017 will be amortized to interest expense over the remaining term of the note. The Peak One note was included in current liabilities as management intends to repay the loan within the next 12 months.

Additionally, the transaction with Peak One included a stock purchase agreement setting forth the details above, including the option for an additional convertible note in the amount of $300,000 and an equity purchase agreement for up to $7,000,000 of the Company’s common stock and related registration rights agreement, which will require a registration statement to be filed.

All references to years relate to the fiscal year ended September 30 of the particular year.

Business Strategy and Plan of Operations

We are statements that estimate the happeningdeveloping products and services around our patented polymorphic encryption technology designed to enable a more efficient and stronger layer of future events and are not based on historical fact. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, such as “may,” “could,” “expect,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “predict,” “probable,” “possible,” “should,” “continue,” or similar terms, variations of those terms or the negative of those terms.

Our future operating results, however, are impossibleadded to predict and no representation, guaranty, or warranty is to be inferred from those forward-looking statements.

Our Business

Cipherloc Corporation isexisting solutions. Through a technology and services solutions company for the rapidly expanding cloud-based cyber security industry. Cipherloc is based in Buda, Texas.

The Company has introduced an innovative and revolutionary new type of encryption technology with five international patents and two US patents pending and is the industry’s first “Polymorphic Cipher Engine”, called CipherLoc®. It islicensing program, we anticipate offering the first secure commercially viable advanced “Polymorphic Key Progression Algorithmic Cipher Engine” (PKPA). This morphing cipher canPolymorphic Encryption Core” (“PEC”) software developers kit to be used in any commercial data security industry and/or in sensitive applications.

The Company’s initialAs described above, our products are focused on protecting “data in motion”designed to encrypt and will consist of three different offerings: CipherLoc EDGE (for mobile platforms), CipherLoc ENTERPRISE (for desktops, laptops,decrypt information. Encryption means encoding information which is readable into another form which is not readable, and tablets), and CipherLoc GATEWAY (for servers). Summaries for each of these productswhich is therefore unable to be intercepted, read, or used, by someone other than the original person who encrypted the information—unless such encryption can be foundbroken.

We believe that our innovative and patented polymorphic technology eliminates the flaws and inadequacies associated with today’s encryption algorithms. Instead of dealing with large monolithic blocks of data, our approach decomposes the information to be protected into multiple segments. These individual segments each have a unique encryption key, utilize different encryption algorithms, are randomly grouped into different lengths, and can be further re-encrypted. Since segments are independent from each other and are individually protected, our technology is not susceptible to computational attacks. In fact, the strength of our technology improves as compute power increases.

We anticipate the operating expenses for the next twelve months may require up to $7.5 million capital, which funds will come from amounts raised in the Private Offering; however, we hope to manage our business such that the existing liquidity carries the Company to positive cash flow from operations, of which there can be no assurance. This measured approach to managing cash initially emphasizes demonstrating product capabilities with current customers which is followed by a scaling exercise in all functional areas, including product development, marketing, sales, customer support, and administration. As such, the cash required for operating expenses through June 30, 2022, will most likely range from $2.4 million to $4.4 million. A summary of the operating plan by functional area is provided below.

Product Development will focus on further maturing the Company’s website. The end goal with the release of these products that we have developed. Our plan is to offer end-to-end data security (i.e., databuild out our core technologies on multiple operating system platforms as well as work with current customers to ensure our product is in line with their needs. Once these items are completed, we plan to shift to further expand our product suite to enable user-defined encryption cipher modes, as well as a remote PEC management system. This will require us to expand the team footprint rapidly to ensure that we can meet market demand.

These efforts will require more personnel as well as more infrastructure. This personnel expansion will likely require $1 million of capital. The infrastructure needed to perform these new functions is planned to be securely sent to/built on modern technology with scale and reliability built from any mobile device, any PC,the ground-up. Utilizing cloud services, we plan to provide our customers with an interface that modern software provides, but an ease of use that encryption technologies desperately need. We believe that if we are able to meet these goals, we will be at a competitive advantage from most other players in this space. Marketing efforts will emphasize qualified lead generation using very focused industry messaging and any server).

With a business-to-business model, the Company will directly pursue businesses that will embed Cipherloc’s technology within their own product offering.engagement. We will be offering these potential clients a fairly standardparticipating in relevant cybersecurity and quantum computing industry events. Our advisors will help us identify the right focus areas for lead generation. Customer support teams will need to be put in place and are expected to be built around each of our product offerings. We anticipate our Support Team will scale as our business needs change. The projected costs for the first 12 months are likely to reach $500,000. These funds will be used for salaries and technology in order for the Support Team to provide the necessary support described above. Administration requirements are currently minimal, but we expect that this will change in the event the Company is able to generate revenues and add employees. The administrative resources will be ramped according to the Company’s demand to support employees, increase accounting capacity, and expand reporting and compliance capabilities. Additional leadership personnel in accounting and human resources are anticipated to precede staff additions. We also plan to add software licensing-maintenance model, under which they will license our software for use within their own products. Any company today that is currently using encryption technology becomes a potential customer for us. By targeting companies who are already building solutions that have encryption built-intools to their products, we are planning to achieve scale much faster.manage functional processes.

This report includes the certifications of our Chief Executive OfficerDisclosure Controls and Chief Financial OfficerProcedures

As required by Rule 13a-1413a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act, we have evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). See Exhibits 31.1our management, including our principal executive officer and 31.2. This Item 4 includes information concerningprincipal financial officer, the controls and control evaluations revered to in those certifications.

Evaluationeffectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintainour disclosure controls and procedures that(as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensureprovide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure, and is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (the “SEC”) rules and forms of the SEC. Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that such information is accumulatedour disclosure controls and communicatedprocedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended June 30, 2021, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our Chief Executive Officerinternal control over financial reporting, including any corrective actions regarding significant deficiencies and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. material weaknesses.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

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

As required by SEC Rule 13a-15(b), our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer need to carry out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of December 31, 2017 due to 1) no formal evaluation has been performed by us and 2) the existence of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below (which we view as an integral part of our disclosure controls and procedures). Based on the performance of additional procedures designed to ensure the reliability of our financial reporting, we believe that the financial statements included in this Quarterly Report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of the dates, and for the periods, presented, in conformity with U.S. GAAP.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting and for the assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d(f) under the Exchange Act) is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (a) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of assets, (b) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, (c) provide reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with appropriate authorization of management and the Board of Directors, and (d) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

In connection with the preparation of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2017, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2017 and concluded that we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2017 due to the identification of material weaknesses. These material weaknesses remain as of December 31, 2017.

1421

Management identified a number of deficiencies in the design and operating effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls as of September 30, 2017 that represent material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. These deficiencies are the result of management’s failure to design, implement and maintain adequate operational and internal controls and processes, including a lack of sufficient accounting staff which resulted in inadequate segregation of duties, the inability to prove delivery of software, an insufficient number of personnel familiar with financial and SEC reporting requirements, inadequate monitoring and review controls over financial reporting and disclosures as well as transaction processing, and insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting.

Remediation Plan

Management has executed a remediation plan intended to address the material weaknesses discussed above. These remediation efforts are focused on:

Additional accounting staff to provide adequate segregationTable of duties;
Enhancing controls around proving the delivery of software;
Retaining appropriate resources familiar with financial and SEC reporting requirements;
Monitoring and reviewing controls over financial reporting and disclosures as well as transaction processing; and
Enhancing and maintaining written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting.

During the three months ended December 31, 2017, management engaged additional resources to support the remediation efforts outlined above. In addition, management has continued to train key accounting staff to improve controls that will ultimately eliminate the material weaknesses discussed above, as well as improve the accounting and financial reporting process.

We expect that remediation, including testing of related controls, will be completed by the end of third quarter 2018.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2017 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting, other than the remediation actions discussed above.

Inherent Limitations on Internal Controls

It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable and not absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of certain events. Limitations inherent in any control system include the following:

Judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and control and process breakdowns can occur because of simple errors or mistakes;
Controls can be circumvented by individuals, acting alone or in collusion with others, or by management override;
The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions;
Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with associated policies or procedures; and
The design of a control system must reflect the fact that resources are constrained, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.

Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.
