LGBTQ LOYALTY HOLDINGS, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

September 30, 2021March 31, 2022

 

Note 1. Nature of Business

 

Throughout this report, the terms “our,” “we,” “us,” and the “Company” refer to LGBTQ Loyalty Holdings, Inc. (formerly LifeApps Brands Inc.), including its subsidiaries.

 

On January 25, 2019, we acquired LGBT Loyalty LLC, a New York limited liability company, with the goal of creating the first LGBTQ Loyalty Preference Index ETF (the “Index ETF”) to provide the LGBTQ community with the power to influence the allocation of capital within a financial Index ETF based upon LGBTQ consumer preferences. The Index ETF is intended to link the growing economic influence of the LGBTQ community and their allies with many of the top Fortune 500 companies that support and implement diversity, inclusion and equality policies within their organizations. The incorporation of diversity and inclusion in a company’s recruitment and human resource policies is becominghas become a key concern to investors as part of their growing focus on ESG allocations. Our data and analytics unequivocally reinforce that corporations that have embraced diversity and inclusion policies within their corporate culture perform at a higher level financially than their peers. This includes advancing a more invigorated workforce that attracts and retains the best talent. Innovation and agility have been identified as great benefits of diversity, and there is an increasing awareness of what has come to bebecome known as ‘the power of difference.’difference’.

 

On October 30, 2019, through our wholly-owned subsidiary Loyalty Preference Index, Inc. (“LPI”) and our strategically aligned partnerships with crowd sourcedcrowd-sourced data and analytic providers, we launched the LGBTQ100 ESG Index. This Index which integrates LGBTQ community survey data into the methodology for a benchmark listing of the nation’s highest financially performing large-cap publicly listed corporations that our respondents believe are most committed to advancing equality. LPI is the index provider for the LGBTQ + ESG100 ETF; LGBTQ Loyalty was the Sponsor for the prospectus that was filed by the licensed Fund Adviser ProcureAM, and was approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in early January 2020. The LGBTQ + ESG100 ETF (the “Fund”) launched in May 2021 on the NASDAQ. The Fund seeks to track the investment results (before fees and expenses) of the LGBTQ100 ESG Index and earns management fees based on assets under management (“AUM”).

Index. In late 2020, LPI was renamed to Advancing Equality Preference, Inc.

On March 25, 2022, ProcureAM, LLC (“Adviser”), the adviser to the Fund, after consultation with the Company, the sponsor of the ETF, determined that the Fund should be closed. Based upon a recommendation by the Adviser, the Board of Trustees of Procure ETF Trust I (the “Trust”) has approved a Plan of Liquidation for the Fund under which the Fund will be liquidated on or about April 28, 2022 (the “Liquidation Date”). The Liquidation Date may be changed without notice at the discretion of the officers of the Trust. Beginning when the Fund commences the liquidation of its portfolio, the Fund will not pursue its investment objectives or, with certain exceptions, engage in normal business activities, and the Fund may hold cash and securities that may not be consistent with the Fund’s investment objective and strategy, which may adversely affect Fund performance.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”), which contemplates our continuation as a going concern. We have incurred losses to date of $18,253,48020,624,459 and have negative working capital of $5,953,6886,861,277 as of September 30, 2021.March 31, 2022. To date we have funded our operations through advances from a related party, issuances of convertible debt, and the sale of common stock, preferred stock and warrants. We intend to raise additional funding through third partythird-party equity or debt financing. There is no certainty that funding will be available as needed. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue operating as a going concern. Our ability to continue our operations as a going concern, realize the carrying value of our assets, and discharge our liabilities in the normal course of business is dependent upon our ability to raise capital sufficient to fund our commitments and ongoing losses, and ultimately generate profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

We have prepared the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial reporting. These condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and, in our opinion, include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals necessary for a fair presentation of our balance sheets, operating results, and cash flows for the periods presented. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for fiscal year 2021.2022. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with US GAAP have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 20202021 filed with the SEC. The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 20202021 included herein was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date, but does not include all disclosures, including notes, required by GAAP.

 

Prior Period Adjustments

In the first quarter of 2022, we determined that the Series D preferred stock included a substantive conversion option, and therefore should be equity classified. Previously, the amount was included as a current liability. We have reclassified the amount to Series D preferred stock equity and additional paid-in capital on the consolidated balance sheet and consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity as of December 31, 2021. We do not believe the change to be qualitatively material to the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2021.

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and our wholly owned subsidiaries, LGBTQ Loyalty, LLC, and Advancing Equality Preference, Inc. All material inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the balance sheets and revenues and expenses during the years reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Fair Value Measurements

 

ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), provides a comprehensive framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures which are required about fair value measurements. Specifically, ASC 820 sets forth a definition of fair value and establishes a hierarchy prioritizing the inputs to valuation techniques, giving the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable value inputs. ASC 820 defines the hierarchy as follows:

 

Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 1 are highly liquid and actively traded instruments with quoted prices, such as equities listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

 

Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, but are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The types of assets and liabilities in Level 2 are typically either comparable to actively traded securities or contracts, or priced with models using highly observable inputs.

 

Level 3 – Significant inputs to pricing that are unobservable as of the reporting date. The types of assets and liabilities included in Level 3 are those with inputs requiring significant management judgment or estimation, such as complex and subjective models and forecasts used to determine the fair value of financial transmission rights and derivative liabilities.

 

Our financial instruments consist of cash, other current assets, accounts payables, accruals, and notes payable. The carrying values of these instruments approximate fair value because of the short-term maturities. The fair value of the Company’s convertible debentures and promissory notes approximates their carrying values as the underlying imputed interest rates approximates the estimated current market rate for similar instruments. The derivative is measured as a Level 3 instrument due to the various inputs which requires significant management judgment. Refer to Note 6 for detail.

 

The following table is a summary of our financial instruments measured at fair value:

Schedule of Financial Instruments at Fair Value

Other Receivables – Related Party

Other receivables represent amounts held in escrow at the Fund’s custodian. In the second quarter of 2021, the Company retrieved $100,000 from the Fund’s custodian, and provided $305,000 related to the ETF launch. As of September 30, 2021, $305,000 was in escrow.

Earnings per Share

 

We calculate earnings per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260 Earnings Per Share, which requires a dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the fiscal year. Diluted earnings per share represent basic earnings per share adjusted to include the potentially dilutive effect of outstanding stock options and warrants. The diluted earnings per share were not calculated because we recorded net losses for the three and nine months ended September 30,March 31, 2022 and 2021, and 2020, and the outstanding stock options and warrants are anti-dilutive. For the three and nine months ended September 30,March 31, 2022 and 2021, and 2020, the following number of potentially dilutive shares have been excluded from diluted net loss since such inclusion would be anti-dilutive:

Recent Pronouncements

In August 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2020-06, which simplifies the guidance on the issuer’s accounting for convertible debt instruments by removing the separation models for convertible debt with a cash conversion feature and convertible instruments with a beneficial conversion feature. As a result, entities will not separately present in equity an embedded conversion feature in such debt and will account for a convertible debt instrument wholly as debt, unless certain other conditions are met. The elimination of these models will reduce reported interest expense and increase reported net income for entities that have issued a convertible instrument that is within the scope of ASU 2020-06. ASU 2020-06 is applicable for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company has elected to early adopt this ASU in the first quarter of 2022 and the adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

Note 6. Derivative Liability

 

We evaluated the terms of the conversion features of each of the outstanding convertible debentures and related debenture warrants as noted above and below, in accordance with ASC Topic No. 815 - 40, Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity’s Own Stock, and determined they are indexed to the Company’s common stock and that the conversion features meet the definition of a liability. Therefore, we bifurcated the conversion feature and accounted for it as a separate derivative liability.

 

To determine the fair value of our embedded derivatives, management evaluates assumptions regarding the probability of certain future events. Other factors used to determine fair value include our period end stock price, historical stock volatility, risk free interest rate and derivative term. The fair value recorded for the derivative liability varies from period to period. This variability may result in the actual derivative liability for a period either above or below the estimates recorded on our consolidated financial statements, resulting in significant fluctuations in other income (expense) because of the corresponding non-cash gain or loss recorded.

 

We value the conversion feature at origination of the notes using the Black-Scholes valuation model.model with the below assumptions. We value the derivative liability at the end of each accounting period, and upon conversion of the underlying note or warrant, with the difference in value recognized as gain or loss included in other income (expense) in our consolidated statements of operations.

The original debentures had conversion features that resulted in derivative liabilities. We valued the conversion features at each origination date with the following assumptions, on a weighted-average basis:

In connection with the issuance of the Series D Preferred Stock, on April 7, 2021, May 12, 2021 and August 19, 2021, we filed a Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series D COD”) with the Delaware Secretary of State to (i) create a new class of preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share, designated Series D Convertible Preferred Stock; (ii) authorize the issuance of up to one thousand (1,000) shares of Series D Preferred Stock; and (iii) authorize the issuance of up to 2000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock (increasing the authorized amount by 1,000 Preferred D Shares.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial information included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”), including our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and for the three and nine months ended September 30,March 31, 2022 and 2021 and 2020 and the related notes.

Business Overview

 

On January 25, 2019, we acquired LGBT Loyalty LLC, a New York limited liability company, with the goal of creating the first LGBTQ Loyalty Preference Index ETF (the “Index ETF”) to provide the LGBTQ community with the power to influence the allocation of capital within a financial Index ETF based upon LGBTQ consumer preferences. The Index ETF is intended to link the growing economic influence of the LGBTQ community and their allies with many of the top Fortune 500 companies that support and implement diversity, inclusion and equality policies within their organizations. The incorporation of diversity and inclusion in a company’s recruitment and human resource policies is becoming a key concern to investors as part of their growing focus on ESG allocations. Our data and analytics unequivocally reinforce that corporations that have embraced diversity and inclusion policies within their corporate culture perform at a higher level financially than their peers. This includes advancing a more invigorated workforce that attracts and retains the best talent. Innovation and agility have been identified as great benefits of diversity, and there is an increasing awareness of what has come to be known as ‘the power of difference.’difference’.

 

On October 30, 2019, through our wholly-owned subsidiary LoyaltyAdvancing Equality Preference, Index, Inc. (“LPI”AEP”) and our strategically aligned partnerships with crowd sourced data and analytic providers, we launched the LGBTQ100 ESG Index which integrates LGBTQ community survey data into the methodology for a benchmark listing of the nation’s highest financially performing large-cap publicly listed corporations that our respondents believe are most committed to advancing equality. LPI is the index provider for the LGBTQ + ESG100 ETF; LGBTQ Loyalty was the Sponsor for the prospectus that was filed by the highly regarded licensed Fund Adviser ProcureAM, a wholly owned subsidiary of Procure Holdings, LLC., which is through our platform service agreement (“PSA”), and was approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in early January 2020. The LGBTQ + ESG100 ETF (the “Fund”) seekssought to track the investment results (before fees and expenses) of the LGBTQ100 ESG Index. The LGBTQ + ESG100 ETF (the “Fund”) launched in May 2021 on the NASDAQ. The Fund seeks to track the investment results (before fees and expenses) of the LGBTQ100 ESG Index and earnsearned management fees based on assets under management (“AUM”). and launched in Q3 - 2021 on the NASDAQ.In late 2020, LPI was renamed to Advancing Equality Preference, Inc.

Fund Closure

On March 25, 2022, ProcureAM, LLC (“Adviser”), the adviser to the Fund, after consultation with the Company, the sponsor of the ETF, determined that the Fund should be closed. Based upon a recommendation by the Adviser, the Board of Trustees of Procure ETF Trust I (the “Trust”) has approved a Plan of Liquidation for the Fund under which the Fund will be liquidated on or about April 28, 2022 (the “Liquidation Date”). The Liquidation Date may be changed without notice at the discretion of the officers of the Trust. Beginning when the Fund commences the liquidation of its portfolio, the Fund will not pursue its investment objectives or, with certain exceptions, engage in normal business activities, and the Fund may hold cash and securities that may not be consistent with the Fund’s investment objective and strategy, which may adversely affect Fund performance.

 

LGBTQ Loyalty has generated an abundance of media coverage for our premier LGBTQ Index product with the launch and listing on NYSE of the LGBTQ100 ESG Index. The exclusive media launch with Bloomberg Media was instrumental in propelling the LGBTQ100 brand to center stage overnight in the financial sector. In addition, LGBTQ Loyalty was featured at the Inside ETFs Summit in early 2020 with Board Members, Barney Frank and Billy Bean speaking on the “The Power of Inclusion & Equality” for investors. Our media strategy objective is to lay the groundwork for additional high-profile positioning of the brand as we work to achieve the desired increased financial media coverage and growth in AUM valuation for our company and shareholders.

Our Products

 

Our mission is to build a sustainable and well recognized brand focused on unlocking the growing purchasing power of the LGTBQ community globally by offering a robust LGBTQ Index and core ETF portfolio that attracts key institutional investors and corporations.

 

At the nucleus of our LGBTQ Loyalty Preference Index is our partner-driven Crowd Preference Index Methodology (CPIM) which we believe disrupts ESG investing. This is achieved through an elevated screening process of financial performance data and ESG standards and practices, whereby LGBTQ community data on diversity and inclusion compliance directly impacts corporate financial results and transparently identifies and recognizes high performance companies who have consistently outperformed the S&P 500 index or equivalent sector standards and norms.

 

We intend to extend the LGBTQ Loyalty Index brand with future plans to develop indices with a focus on the ‘Social’ component of ESG utilizing our proprietary financial slogan of “Advancing Equality” within other gender, minority interest groups.

 

Revenue

 

The Company focus in 2019 and 2020over the past few years was to create and launch our first of many financial Index products through an equality driven thematic ESG screened and alpha performance benchmark. The Company achieved this through its LGBTQ100 ESG Index listing and performance on the NYSE starting on October 30, 2019. In 20202022 our collective efforts and focus is to monetize and scale our model by capturing recurring revenue streams through our current financial Index product. Our goal is to accelerate our revenue pursuits through our partnership and licensed relationships to achieve a break-even point when we have secured AUM benchmarked against the LGBTQ100 Index in excess of $50,000,000.

 

We intend to introduce a new key partnered revenue source derived from Direct Index Licensing Fees generated by financial institutions and asset management companies for creating a product (e.g., Index Funds, Structured Financial Products, Turnkey Asset Management Providers) based on or linked to the LGBTQ100 index. This includes fees to use the LGBTQ100 index to track the performance of funds or as benchmarks for actively managed portfolios. We plan to capture Data Subscriptions which could provide recurring subscription revenue from our LGBTQ Index. This includes ongoing and historical data and information generated by our wholly owned division Advancing Equality Preference Inc., and through our strategic partnerships for new potential financial equality-driven Indices.

 

New initiatives in 20212022 include a plan to create ancillary revenue streams to complement and support this unique platform for the top 100 Equality driven Corporations in America represented in the LGBTQ100 Index. We believe our index will reward and elevate the status of those corporations that have adopted diversity and inclusion best practices, cared for their employees and positively impacted LGBTQ communities. Expert LGBTQ economists have repeatedly stressed the value of the LGBTQ brand loyalty to corporations. We consider the companies that best capture the spending trends and loyalty of the LGBTQ consumer will be better positioned for financial growth and success. Given the opportunity to link to the power and status generated between the LGBTQ community, these companies and their own workforce, we will launch a Partner Loyalty Program which includes benefits afforded to defined sponsorship tiers. The LGBTQ Loyalty Sponsorship is designed to attract the significant marketing dollars Fortune 500 companies are allocating to D&I programs with an opportunity to purchase LGBTQ Loyalty Sponsorship packages, including participation and brand exposure at planned conferences and events. Companies will be offered the opportunity to purchase LGBTQ Loyalty Sponsorship packages starting in Q4-2021.

Our initial investments in creating a high performing product with a well-recognized brand have been established. As we begin to move into planning for the post-COVID-19 world, we will now shift our efforts to cultivate new revenue stream opportunities while building AUM as we construct a profitable business platform.

 

We have achieved no revenues to date from our LGBTQ related operations and have been focused on building our product and achieving performance results and media branding over the course of the past twelve months. There are no assurances that can be given that we will achieve revenues or profitability in the future.

Business Strategy

Our business strategy is targeted to the estimated three trillion-dollar global purchasing power of the LGBTQ consumer demographic. More than nineteen million people identify themselves as LGBTQ in the US and four-hundred-fifty million globally while the LGBTQ community is composed of some of the most loyalty-driven consumers in the world.

We believe that the LGBTQ demographic is one of the most highly sought-after economic groups in the world from corporate America down to the local business owner because of their higher median income and brand loyalty. What makes targeting and supporting this dynamic demographic even more extraordinary and rewarding is that friends, family, employers, employees, teachers, coaches and fans of our community so loyally support the brands, products and services that in turn support us. We further believe that this loyalty across the board is time tested, proven, growing and expanding and ultimately extremely rewarding to all that are embraced by the LGBTQ community. Connecting the world’s most supportive LGBTQ companies to the dynamic, loyal and ever-increasing spending power of the LGBTQ community is a consequential step forward for the LGBTQ movement and investment community.

Many Fortune 500 companies are directing more of their consumer advertising and promotional spend towards celebrating diversity and equality. Our long-term goal is to reinforce the financial performance of those Corporations as they foster and integrate LGBTQ equality practices through their Diversity and Inclusion policies as a cornerstone of their corporate culture. Our LGBTQ100 Index of the top 100 corporate constituents have already embraced and enacted this standard of Equality excellence. See our top LGBTQ100 Index constituents on our website.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GAAP, which contemplates our continuation as a going concern. We have incurred losses to date of $18,253,480$20,624,459 and have negative working capital of $5,953,688$6,861,277 as of September 30, 2021.March 31, 2022. To date we have funded our operations through advances from a related party, issuances of convertible debt, and the sale of common stock, preferred stock and warrants. We intend to raise additional funding through third party equity or debt financing. There is no certainty that funding will be available as needed. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue operating as a going concern. Our ability to continue our operations as a going concern, realize the carrying value of our assets, and discharge our liabilities in the normal course of business is dependent upon our ability to raise capital sufficient to fund our commitments and ongoing losses, and ultimately generate profitable operations. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

 

16

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the balance sheets and revenues and expenses during the years reported. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments:

 

The Company has financial instruments that are considered derivatives or contain embedded features subject to derivative accounting. Embedded derivatives are valued separately from the host instrument and are recognized as derivative liabilities in the Company’s balance sheet. The Company measures these instruments at their estimated fair value and recognizes changes in their estimated fair value in results of operations during the period of change. The Company has a sequencing policy regarding share settlement wherein instruments with a fixed conversion price or floor would be settled first, and interest payable in shares settle next. Thereafter, share settlement order is based on instrument issuance date – earlier dated instruments settling before later dated. The sequencing policy also considers contingently issuable additional shares, such as those issuable upon a stock split, to have an issuance date to coincide with the event giving rise to the additional shares. The policy includes all shares issuable pursuant to debenture and preferred stock instruments as well as shares issuable under service and employment contracts and interest on short term loans.

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and are not required to provide the information required under this item.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) (the Company’s principal financial and accounting officer), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are not effective due to a lack of audit committee and segregation of duties caused by limited personnel to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive Officer) and Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial Officer), does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints 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, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include, but are not limited to, the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon 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 the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

 

Management believes that the material weakness set forth above did not have an effect on our financial results.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended September 30, 2021March 31, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
