ITEM 1.BUSINESS.

Our Business

Prior to the completion of the Share Exchange, BIG Token was an operating segment of SRAX. On February 4, 2021 we completed the Share Exchange. As a result, BIG Token became our wholly owned subsidiary and we adopted BIG Token’s business plan. We anticipate formally changing our name to BIG Token in the future. In connection with the Share Exchange, we also entered into certain agreements with SRAX including but not limited to the TSA and MSA, as more fully described below. The terms of these agreements may be more or less favorable to us than if they had been negotiated with unaffiliated third parties.

We were initially incorporated as M Street Gallery, Inc. in March of 2011, in the state of Florida. On September 25, 2013, we changed our name to Enhance-Your-Reputation.com, Inc. On February 1, 2015, we changed our name to Force Protection Video Equipment Corporation. Our headquarters are located in Westlake Village, California, but we work as a virtually distributed organization. On February 4, 2021 we completed a share exchange with BIG Token, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of SRAX. As a result of the exchange, BIG Token became our wholly owned subsidiary. Additionally, simultaneous with the exchange, we adopted BIG Token’s business plan.

Company Overview

We are a data technology company offering a consumer based mobile application that allows consumers to own and earn from their digital data. We generate revenue by anonymizing the data, and using it to extract consumer insights that we sell to brand advertisers. Our consumer- based platform and technologies offer tools and services to identify and reach the target consumers of our brand advertisers. Our technologies assist our clients to identify their core consumers and such consumers’ characteristics across various channels in order to discover new and measurable opportunities that amplify the performance of marketing campaigns and maximize a return on marketing spend.

When consumers download our app, we ask them some questions, engage them with surveys, and ask them to connect their various online accounts including their bank accounts, credit card accounts, and social media accounts. Based on the amount of information they provide directly by answering questions or taking surveys, or passively, by connecting accounts, we’re able to track more than 4,000 attributes per consumer.

We derive our revenues from applying the data we collect, and deriving insights and audiences that we use to increase the efficiency of the online advertising of our clients. We then share the revenue generated with our consumers based on their activity and various other parameters.

To date, there have been more than 16 million accounts registered on BIG Token. The vast majority of our registrations have been driven by referrals from existing users who get rewards for driving new users. Of the 16 million, we’ve “verified” over 9 million through emails and bot detection techniques.

Our Market Opportunity – Data Economy

The global big data market is forecasted to grow to $103B by 2027, more than double its market size in 2018. A consumer’s digital footprint includes everything they search for, view, read, listen to, purchase, like or comment on.

Data spending keeps rising - The majority of survey respondents (69.2%) said their organizations increased spending on data and related services in 2018 (relative to 2017), while over three-fourths (78.2%) anticipate investing even more in the coming year.

Companies are prioritizing data-driven insights in order to develop marketing strategy and allocate marketing spend.

Government Regulation On Data Privacy Is Driving Major Tech Companies To Restrict Or Eliminate Traditional Data Collection Techniques

Regulation is changing the way businesses and tech can use data. In 2016, the European Union (EU) passed the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) to give individuals control over their personal data and to unify regulations within the EU. Other seminal regulatory events include the 2018 passage of the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) intended to enhance privacy rights and consumer protection for Californians.

In response to the changing global regulatory environment around data privacy, major tech companies are changing how they allow their customers to collect user data. Notably, the major browsers, including Google’s Chrome and Apple’s Safari, are eliminating, or severely restricting, the use of 3rd party cookies. Those cookies have been a principal way that brands have been able to identify and market to consumers. In addition, in iOS 14, Apple is changing the Identifier For Advertiser (IDFA) tags used by mobile apps to identify users from opt out, to opt-in.

As a result of the intensifying regulatory landscape, and the tech industry’s response, first-party opt-in data, like that collected by BIGtoken, is becoming increasingly valuable. As we scale our compliant first party data set, BIGtoken will be strongly positioned to capitalize on the rapidly evolving data marketplace. We are currently focused on increasing registered users on the platform, increasing the engagement of our users, monetizing our data driven insights, and rewarding our users for sharing their data.

Given the massive tailwinds in data privacy, and our focus on first-party opt-in data, we believe BIGtoken is well positioned to accelerate growth as we play an increasingly larger role in ensuring data privacy is treated as a human right.

For additional information about government regulation applicable to our business, see Risk Factors in Part I, Item 1A.

Our Growth Strategy

 

ITEM 1:BUSINESS

Overview

The CompanyOur business is in the business of selling videocurrently based on using our mobile app to aggregate users who opt-in to provide us their data via direct and audio capture devices initially targetedpassive actions, anonymizing that data, and using that data to law enforcement agencies. With over 30 years of marketingprovide unique consumer insights that enable marketers to law enforcement, the Company’s CEO, Paul Feldman is able to leverage his extensive knowledge and base of contacts to produce sales. The Company has established a web site at www.forceprovideo.com whereby customers can view the Company’s products and place orders.advertise more efficiently. We believe that given recentas the information gathered through the BIGtoken platform scales, we will be able to introduce new products, and monetize our growing user base at increasingly higher rates.

We are currently focused on increasing registered users on the platform, increasing the engagement of our users, monetizing our data driven insights, and rewarding our users for sharing their data. As part of this strategy, we continue to explore partnership opportunities that would allow us to leverage the capabilities of the BIGtoken platform to effectively grow the platform and increase and enhance our user experience and user rewards / compensation.

Examples of how we plan to use BIGtoken and the proprietary consumer data derived therefrom include:

The use of BIGtoken user surveys and the sale of such information received from surveys.
The creation and management of targeted rewards and loyalty programs based on information and buying trends ascertained by data captured on our BIGtoken platform. We offer this solution both on and off the BIGtoken app.
The ability to assist our customers in conducting market research based on analytics received from users of the BIGtoken platform.
The ability to identify specific audiences for our customers and to target questions, surveys and data analytics geared toward our customers’ products / industries. Additionally, if we are unable to scale the needed information for a customer’s target audience, we may utilize our proprietary analytics to gain insight to further focus and refine user segments that need to be targeted in order to optimize data and media spend.
The use of Lightning Insights that allow our customers to conduct research around specific audience groups through both long and short research studies.
The creation of customized loyalty programs that utilize rewards to drive consumer purchasing habits.
We plan to increasingly embrace crypto-currencies, including, but limited to, offering to reward our users with Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency, offering to pay our employees and vendors with such currency. offering our users digital wallets to store their crypto, enabling our users to store rewards in interest bearing stablecoins, holding cryptocurrency in our Treasury, developing our own Layer One Protocol optimized for users to own and monetize data, developing our own cryptocurrency to be used as rewards.

Marketing and sales

We market our services through our in-house sales team, with a focus today on the largest brand advertisers with the biggest advertising budgets. Our customers include 8 of the 10 largest brand advertisers, each poised to dramatically increase their spend with BIGtoken in 2021. We believe that our focus on the largest brand advertisers will not only drive meaningful revenue growth but will help build the BIGtoken brand as the leader in privacy focused, opt in, first-party data, positioning us well when we expand our focus to mid-market agencies and brands.

On the client side, our in-house marketing is focused on positioning BIGtoken as a thought leader in data privacy, via social media, including Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter, public relations (PR), industry events and the creation of white papers which assist in our marketing efforts and are used as lead generation tools for our sales team.

On the consumer side, we are focused on marrying our privacy leadership, with a reward system that provides meaningful value to our users who provide us with meaningful data.

Intellectual property

We currently rely on a combination of trade secret laws and restrictions on disclosure to protect our intellectual property rights. Our success depends on the protection of the proprietary aspects of our technology as well as our ability to operate without infringing on the proprietary rights of others. We also enter into proprietary information and confidentiality agreements with our employees, consultants and commercial partners and control access to, and distribution of, our software documentation and other proprietary information. We have one Trademark, “BIGtoken.”

Competition

We operate in a highly competitive digital media and ad tech environment. We compete based on our ability to: assist our customers in obtaining the best available prices, data, and analytics, our customer service and, the quality and accessibility of our innovative products and service offerings. We believe our platform provides for a competitive advantage. We expect an increasing number of other companies to provide similar services, leading to an increasingly competitive landscape.

Government Regulations

We are subject to a variety of laws and regulations in the United States and abroad that involve matters central to our business. Many of these laws and regulations are still evolving and being tested in courts and could be interpreted in ways that could harm our business. These may involve privacy, data protection and personal information, rights of publicity, content, intellectual property, advertising, marketing, distribution, data security, data retention and deletion, electronic contracts and other communications, competition, protection of minors, consumer protection, product liability, taxation, economic or other trade prohibitions or sanctions, anti-corruption law compliance, securities law compliance, and online payment services. In particular, we are subject to federal, state, and foreign laws regarding privacy and protection of people’s data. Foreign data protection, privacy, content, competition, and other laws and regulations can impose different obligations or be more restrictive than those in the United States. U.S. federal and state and foreign laws and regulations, which in some cases can be enforced by private parties in addition to government entities, are constantly evolving and can be subject to significant change. As a result, the application, interpretation, and enforcement of these laws and regulations are often uncertain, particularly in the new and rapidly evolving industry in which we operate, and may be interpreted and applied inconsistently from country to country and inconsistently with our current events betweenpolicies and practices.

Proposed or new legislation and regulations could also significantly affect our business. For example, the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) took effect in May 2018 and applies to all of our products and services used by people in Europe. The GDPR includes operational requirements for companies that receive or process personal data of residents of the European Union that are different from those previously in place in the European Union and includes significant penalties for non-compliance. The California Consumer Privacy Act, which took effect in January 2020, also establishes certain transparency rules and creates new data privacy rights for users. Similarly, there are a number of legislative proposals in the European Union, the United States, at both the federal and state level, as well as other jurisdictions that could impose new obligations or limitations in areas affecting our business, such as liability for copyright infringement. In addition, some countries are considering or have passed legislation implementing data protection requirements or requiring local storage and processing of data or similar requirements that could increase the cost and complexity of delivering our services.

We may become the subject of investigations, inquiries, data requests, requests for information, actions, and audits by government authorities and regulators in the United States, Europe, and around the world, particularly in the areas of privacy, data protection, law enforcement, agenciesconsumer protection, and competition, as we continue to grow and expand our operations. We are currently, and may in the future be, subject to regulatory orders or consent decrees, including the modified consent order we entered into in July 2019 with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) which is pending federal court approval and which, among other matters, will require us to implement a comprehensive expansion of our privacy program. Orders issued by, or inquiries or enforcement actions initiated by, government or regulatory authorities could cause us to incur substantial costs, expose us to unanticipated civil and criminal liability or penalties (including substantial monetary remedies), interrupt or require us to change our business practices in a manner materially adverse to our business, divert resources and the public, which has been widely reported byattention of management from our business, or subject us to other remedies that adversely affect our business.

We anticipate embracing crypto and digital assets in the media, therefuture. The regulatory regime governing blockchain technologies, cryptocurrencies, digital assets, utility tokens, security tokens and offerings of digital assets is a significant market opportunity for the Company’s products. In the first quarter of fiscal 2016, the Company received multiple orders for the LE10 camera System. The LE10 is a small bodied, high definition (HD) camera which is half the sizeuncertain, and half the price of most law enforcement cameras currently available. The LE10 and more recent addition the LE50 are rich with features that make them ideal for on-demand video and audio capture. The LE10 and LE50 do not require special softwarenew regulations or expensive storage contracts. The video files can quickly be downloaded into a standard law enforcement case filepolicies may materially adversely affect our development and the micro SD cards are sealedvalue. Regulation of digital assets, like cryptocurrencies, blockchain technologies and cryptocurrency exchanges, is currently undeveloped and likely to rapidly evolve as government agencies take greater interest in them. Regulation also varies significantly among international, federal, state and local jurisdictions and is subject to significant uncertainty. Various legislative and executive bodies in the provided static evidence bagsUnited States and then securely storedin other countries may in the department’s evidence locker. The Company’s Video LE10future adopt laws, regulations, or guidance, or take other actions, which may severely impact the permissibility of tokens generally and LE50 camerasthe technology behind them or the means of transaction or in transferring them. Failure by us to comply with any laws, rules and regulations, some of which may not exist yet or are subject to interpretation and may be subject to change, could result in a rugged design which incorporates Ambarella (NASDAQ “AMBA”) made chips that allow the cameras to record high definition video.variety of adverse consequences, including civil penalties and fines.

We describe below what we believe are currently the material risks and uncertainties we face, but they are not the only risks and uncertainties we face. Additional risks and uncertainties that we are unaware of, or that we currently believe are not material, may also become important factors that adversely affect our operating results and financial condition. Warranty claims may result in litigation,business.

CompetitionRisks Related to the COVID-19 Pandemic

 

The marketCOVID-19 pandemic, or other epidemic and pandemic diseases or governmental or other actions taken in response to them, could significantly disrupt our business.

Outbreaks of epidemic, pandemic or contagious diseases, such as the recent SARS-CoV-2 virus, or coronavirus, which causes coronavirus disease 2019, or COVID-19, or, historically, the Ebola virus, Middle East Respiratory Syndrome, Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome or the H1N1 virus, could significantly disrupt our business. These outbreaks pose the risk that we or our employees, contractors, and other partners may be prevented from conducting business activities for on-body camerasan indefinite period of time due to spread of the disease within these groups, or due to restrictions that may be requested or mandated by governmental authorities. Business disruptions could include disruptions or restrictions on our ability to travel, as well as temporary closures of all or part of our facilities and the facilities of our partners. As the COVID-19 pandemic rapidly evolves and spreads, both across the United States and through much of the world, we continue to actively monitor the impact that COVID-19 is highly competitive. Further, we expect competition to increasehaving and may have on our business.

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, many states and counties have issued and may in the future issue orders for all residents to remain at home, except as existing competitors introduce newneeded for essential activities, and more competitive offerings alongside their existing products,have placed restrictions on the scope and as new market entrants introduce new products into our markets. We compete against established, well-known camera manufacturers such as Axon- Taser,WatchGuard and Provision. Manyconduct of business activities. As a result, we have implemented work from home policies for a majority of our current competitorsemployees that may continue for an indefinite period. We have substantial market share, diversified product lines, well- established supplytaken steps to ensure the safety of our patients and distribution systems, strong worldwide brand recognition and greater financial, marketing, research and development and other resources than we do.employees, while working to ensure the sustainability of our business operations as this unprecedented situation continues to evolve.

 

In addition, manya significant outbreak of our existing and potential competitors have substantial competitive advantages, such as:

·

longer operating histories;

·

the capacity to leverage their sales efforts and marketing expenditures across a broader portfolio of products;

·

broader distribution and established relationships with channel partners;

·

access to larger established customer bases;

·

greater financial resources;

·

large intellectual property portfolios; and

·

the ability to bundle competitive offerings with other products and services

Moreover, smartphones and tablets with photo and video functionality have significantly displaced traditional camera sales. It is possible that,epidemic, pandemic or contagious diseases in the future, the manufacturers of these devices,human population, such as Apple Inc. and Samsung, may design them for use in a range of conditions, including challenging physical environments, or develop products similar to ours. In addition to competition or potential competition from large, established companies, new companies may emerge and offer competitive products. Further, we are aware that certain companies have developed cameras designed and labeled to appear similar to our products, which may confuse consumers or distract consumers from purchasing our products.

Increased competition maythe global COVID-19 pandemic, could result in pricing pressures and reduced profit margins and may impede our ability to continue to increase the sales of our products or cause us to lose market share, any of which could substantially harm our business and results of operations

Seasonality

Our business, as well as the industry in which we operate, is not seasonal.

Intellectual Property

We currently have a patent pending on a new product

Other than the aforementioned pending patent, we have no registered or patented intellectual property. Trademarks and trade names distinguish the various companies from each other. If customers are unable to distinguish our products from those of other companies, we could lose sales to our competitors. We do not have any registered trademarks and trade names, so we only have common law rights with respect to infractions or infringements on its products. Many subtleties exist in product descriptions, offering and names that can easily confuse customers. The name of our principal products may be found in numerous variations of the name and descriptions in various media and product labels. This presents a risk of losing potential customers looking for our products and buying someone else’s because they cannot differentiate between them.

Employees

As of the date of this report, we have three full time employees including Paul Feldman who is our Director, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Feldman spends approximately sixty (60) hours per week on our business. We have one full time employees who provide clerical and administrative services and one full time sales person.

None of our employees are represented by a collective bargaining agreement, nor have we experienced any work stoppages. We maintain good relationships with our employees.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) emerged in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. While initially the outbreak was largely concentrated in China and caused significant disruptions to its economy, it has now spread to several other countries, including the United States, and infections have been reported globally. The spread of COVID-19 has affected segments of the global economy and may affect our operations.

Our business has been disrupted, but the extent to which the coronavirus impacts our operations will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the duration of the outbreak, new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the coronavirus and the actions to contain the coronavirus or treat its impact. International stock markets have begun to reflect the uncertainty associated with the slow-down in the American, European, and Asian economies, and the reduced levels of international travel experienced since the beginning of January 2020 and the significant decline in the Dow Industrial Average in February and March 2020, was largely attributed to the effects of COVID-19.

ITEM 2:While the potential economic impact brought by, and the duration of, COVID-19 may be difficult to assess or predict, a continuing widespread pandemic could result in significant disruption of global financial markets, reducing our ability to access capital, which could in the future negatively affect our liquidity. In addition, a recession or market correction resulting from the spread of COVID-19 could materially affect the value of our common stock.

PROPERTIESRisks Related to Our Business

We have a history of operating losses and there are no assurances we will report profitable operations in the foreseeable future.

 

We occupy approximately 1600 square feet at 1600 Olive Chapel Rd., Apex, NC 27502-6764 pursuanthave losses from operations of $8,581,000 and $15,981,000 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Our future success depends upon our ability to continue to grow our revenues, contain our operating expenses and generate profits. We do not have any long-term agreements with our customers. There are no assurances that we will be able to increase our revenues and cash flow to a lease agreementlevel which expires on November 30, 2020.

ITEM 3:

 LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We may not be able to continue as a going concern if we do not obtain additional financing.

 

We have incurred losses since our inception and have not demonstrated an ability to generate revenues from the sales of our proposed products. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on raising capital from the sale of our common stock and/or obtaining debt financing. Our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investment balance as of December 31, 2020 was approximately $1,000. On March 12, 2021 we closed on the private placement of our Series B Preferred Stock. The offering resulted in gross proceeds of 4,724,827, not including an additional $1,050,000 that we closed on in October 2020. Based on our cash, cash equivalents and short term investments, as well as the proceeds from our offering, as well as our current expected level of operating expenditures, we expect to be able to fund our operations through the third quarter of 2021. Our ability to remain a going concern is wholly dependent upon our ability to continue to obtain sufficient capital to fund our operations. Accordingly, despite our ability to secure capital in the past, there can be no assurance that additional equity or debt financing will be available to us when needed or that we may be able to secure funding from any other sources. In the event that we are not awareable to secure funding, we may be forced to curtail operations, delay or stop ongoing clinical trials, cease operations altogether or file for bankruptcy.

We will need to raise additional capital to continue operations.

We have historically operated as a business unit of any pendingSRAX and accordingly, SRAX has funded our operations. As of December 31, 2020, we had minimal cash or threatened litigation against us thatcash equivalents or short-term investment. On March 12, 2021, we closed on a private placement of our Series B Preferred Stock resulting in gross proceeds of approximately $4.7 million. Based on our cash, cash equivalents and short term investments, as well as the proceeds from our offering, as well as our current expected level of operating expenditures, we expect will have a material adverse effect onto be able to fund our business, financial condition, liquidity, or operating results.operations through the third quarter of 2021. We cannot assure you that we will not be adversely affected in the future by legal proceedings.able to secure additional capital through financing transactions, including issuance of debt. Our inability to operate profitably, or secure additional financing will materially impact our ability to fund our current and planned operations.

 

ITEM 4: MINE SAFETY DISCLOSUREWe have spent and expect to continue spending substantial cash in the execution of our business plan and the development of the BIG Token platform. We cannot assure you that financing will be available if needed. If additional financing is not available, we may not be able to fund our operations, develop or enhance our product offerings, take advantage of business opportunities or respond to competitive market pressures. If we exhaust our cash reserves and are unable to secure additional financing, we may be unable to meet our obligations which could result in us initiating bankruptcy proceedings or delaying or eliminating some or all our research and product development programs.

PART IIOur failure to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting may result in the need for us to restate previously issued financial statements. As a result, current and potential stockholders may lose confidence in our financial reporting, which could harm our business and value of our stock.

 

ITEM 5:MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIESOr management has determined that, as of December 31, 2020, we did not maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting based on criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework as a result of identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. 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.

 

Market InformationOur auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Our common stock tradesauditors’ report on our December 31, 2020 consolidated financial statements expresses an opinion that our capital resources as of the Overdate of their audit report were not sufficient to sustain operations or complete our planned activities for the Counter Markets Group Inc. Pink tier underupcoming year unless we raised additional funds. Our current cash level raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern past the symbol “FPVD”.third quarter of 2021. If we do not obtain additional capital by such time, we may no longer be able to continue as a going concern and may cease operation or seek bankruptcy protection.

Holders

As of April 13, 2020, there are approximately 41 holders of record of our common stock in certificate form, exclusive of those brokerage firms and/or clearing houses holding our Common Stock in street name for their clientele (with each such brokerage house and/or clearing house being considered as one holder). We have 841,184,289 shares of common stock issued and outstanding.

Dividend Policy

We have not paidhistorically operated as a business unit of SRAX. Our success depends largely on the development and execution of our business strategy by our senior management team. Effective February 16, 2021, Lou Kerner was appointed Chief Executive Officer. Our success depends largely on the development and execution of our business strategy by our senior management team. We currently have a limited executive team which may adversely affect our business. Additionally, the loss of any dividendsmembers or key personnel would likely harm our ability to implement our business strategy and respond to the holdersrapidly changing market conditions in which we operate. There may be a limited number of persons with the requisite skills to serve in these positions, and we cannot assure you that we would be able to identify or employ such qualified personnel on acceptable terms, if at all. We cannot assure you that management will succeed in working together as a team. In the event we are unsuccessful, our business and prospects could be harmed.

We depend on the services of our common stockexecutive officers and the loss of any of their services could harm our ability to operate our business in future periods.

Our success largely depends on the efforts and abilities of our or Chief Executive Officer, Lou Kerner. We are a party to an employment agreement with Mr. Kerner. Although we do not expect to pay any such dividendslose his services in the foreseeable future, the loss of any of them could materially harm our business and operations in future periods until such time as we expectwere able to retainengage a suitable replacement.

We have no operating history as a standalone entity or management team as presently configured which results in a high degree of uncertainty regarding our future earnings for useability to effectively operate our business.

Our limited staff, operating history as well as our recently appointed management team means that there is a high degree of uncertainty regarding our ability to:

develop and commercialize our technologies and proposed products;
identify, hire and retain the needed personnel to implement our business plan;
manage growth; or
respond to competition.

No assurances can be given as to exactly when, if at all, we will be able to develop our business or take the necessary steps to derive net income.

The employment contract of Lou Kerner contains anti-termination provisions which could make changes in management difficult or expensive.

We have entered into an employment agreement with Lou Kerner, our Chief Executive Officer. This agreement may require the payment of severance in the operationevent he ceases to be employed. The provision makes the replacement of Mr. Kerner costly and expansioncould cause difficulty in effecting any required changes in management or a change in control.

We may be required to expend significant capital to redeem BIGtoken Points which will negatively impact our ability to fund our core operations.

Users of BIGtoken receive points for undertaking certain actions on the platform that may be redeemed directly for cash from us, with such value as determined by management. Accordingly, we are currently obligated to redeem users’ points which are earned on BIGtoken. We are currently redeeming each point for up to $0.01, subject to the user meeting certain conditions. As of December 31, 2020, we recorded a contingent liability for future point redemptions equal to approximately $445,000 and we have redeemed an aggregate amount of approximately $1,250,000. As of December 31, 2020, we had approximately 16 million application downloads. If our users continue to increase, we will be required to have enough cash reserves to redeem points held by our qualified users for cash. There can be no assurance that we will have enough cash reserves, or if we do have sufficient cash, if we will be able to continue to fund our other business obligations and operational expenses.

12

If our efforts to attract and retain BIGtoken users are not successful, our number of users and the amount of data collected could fail to reach critical mass, grow or decline and our potential for BIGtoken to earn revenues may be materially affected.

We will be dependent on advertisers to pay us for access to user data. We must attract users to grow the amount of accessible data and make it attractive to these third parties. If the public does not perceive our mission or our services to be reliable, valuable or of high quality, we may not be able to attract or retain users and create a critical mass of data which will impact our ability to earn revenues which could have a materially adversely affected us.

The regulatory regime governing blockchain technologies, cryptocurrencies, digital assets, utility tokens, security tokens and offerings of digital assets is evolving and uncertain, and new regulations or policies may materially adversely affect our development.

We anticipate embracing digital assets and cryptocurrencies in the future. Regulation of digital assets like, cryptocurrencies, blockchain technologies and cryptocurrency exchanges, is currently undeveloped and likely to rapidly evolve as government agencies take greater interest in them. Regulation also varies significantly among international, federal, state and local jurisdictions and is subject to significant uncertainty. Various legislative and executive bodies in the United States and in other countries may in the future adopt laws, regulations, or guidance, or take other actions, which may severely impact the permissibility of tokens generally and the technology behind them or the means of transaction or in transferring them. The regulatory regime governing blockchain technologies, cryptocurrencies, digital assets, utility tokens, security tokens and offerings of digital assets is uncertain, and new regulations or policies may materially adversely affect the development and the value of the Company if we materially embrace digital assets and cryptocurrencies in the future.

Natural disasters, epidemic or pandemic disease outbreaks, trade wars, political unrest or other events could disrupt our business or operations or those of our development partners, manufacturers, regulators or other third parties with whom we conduct business now or in the future.

A wide variety of events beyond our control, including natural disasters, epidemic or pandemic disease outbreaks (such as the recent novel coronavirus outbreak), trade wars, political unrest or other events could disrupt our business or operations or those of our manufacturers, regulatory authorities, or other third parties with whom we conduct business. These events may cause businesses and government agencies to be shut down, supply chains to be interrupted, slowed, or rendered inoperable, and individuals to become ill, quarantined, or otherwise unable to work and/or travel due to health reasons or governmental restrictions. For example, California recently ordered most businesses closed, mandating work-from-home arrangements, where feasible, in response to the coronavirus pandemic. These limitations could negatively affect our business operations and continuity and could negatively impact our ability to timely perform basic business functions, including making SEC filings and preparing financial reports. If our operations or those of third parties with whom we have business are impaired or curtailed as a result of these events, the development and commercialization of our products and product candidates could be impaired or halted, which could have a material adverse impact on our business.

 

Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation PlansChallenges in acquiring user data could adversely affect our ability to retain and expand BIGtoken, and therefore could materially affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

AtIn order to expand BIGtoken, we must continue to expend resources to make the present time, we have no securities authorizedsubmission of user data as user-friendly as possible. We, and our users, may face legal, logistical, cultural and commercial challenges in procuring user data. Additionally, once such data is obtained, if the process for issuance under equity compensation plans.validation and collection of rewards may be perceived as too cumbersome and discourage potential users from submission. We may need to expend significant resources on user interfaces for evolving platforms, such as mobile devices. Inconveniences to our users or potential users at any stage of the process may materially challenge our growth.

 

Additional InformationIf we fail to ensure that the user data derived from BIGtoken is of high quality, our ability to attract customers or monetize the data may be materially impaired.

 

CopiesThe reliability of our annual reports, quarterly reports, current reports,user data depends upon the integrity and the quality of the process of accepting user data into BIGtoken. We will take certain measures to validate user data submitted by our users and potential users to assure a high quality of data in BIGtoken and generally confirming that data is submitted in accordance with our terms for such data. We must continue to invest in our quality control measures relating to BIGtoken in order to provide a high-quality product to potential customers.

If BIGtoken experiences an excessive rate of user attrition, our ability to attract customers could fail.

Users may elect to have their data deleted from BIGtoken at any amendmentstime. We must continually add new users both to those reports,replace users who choose to delete their data and to increase our user base. Users may choose to delete their data for many reasons. If users are available freeconcerned about privacy and security and do not perceive BIGtoken to be reliable, if we fail to keep users engaged and interested in our application, or if we simply lose our users’ attention, we could fail to gather sufficient user data and our ability to earn revenues may be materially affected.

If we are unable to manage our marketing and advertising expenses, it could materially harm our results of chargeoperations and growth.

We plan to rely in part on our marketing and advertising efforts to attract new members. Our future growth and profitability, as well as the maintenance and enhancement of our brand, will depend in large part on the internet at www.sec.gov. All statements made in anyeffectiveness and efficiency of our filings, including all forward-looking statements, are made as of the date of the document, in which the statement is included,marketing and we do not assume or undertake any obligation to update any of those statements or documents unlessadvertising strategies and expenditures. If we are requiredunable to do so by law.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Forward Looking Statements

The following discussion of themaintain our marketing and advertising channels on cost-effective terms, our marketing and advertising expenses could increase substantially, and our business, financial condition and results of operations may suffer. In addition, we may be required to incur significantly higher marketing and advertising expenses than we currently anticipate if excessive numbers of members withdraw their member data from our database.

Failure to comply with federal, state and local laws and regulations or our contractual obligations relating to data privacy, protection and security of BIGtoken user data, and civil liabilities relating to breaches of privacy and security of user data, could damage our reputation and harm our business.

A variety of federal, state and local laws and regulations govern the collection, use, retention, sharing and security of user data. We will collect BIGtoken user data from and about our members when they redeem rewards and maintain that date in our BIGtoken Application. Claims or allegations that we have violated applicable laws or regulations related to privacy, data protection or data security could in the future result in negative publicity and a loss of confidence in us by our users and potential new users and may subject us to fines and penalties by regulatory authorities. In addition, we have privacy policies and practices concerning the collection, use and disclosure of user data as part of our agreements with our members, including ones posted on our website. Several Internet companies have incurred penalties for failing to abide by the representations made in their privacy policies and practices. In addition, our use and retention of user data could lead to civil liability exposure in the event of any disclosure of such information due to hacking, malware, phishing, inadvertent action or other unauthorized use or disclosure. Several companies have been subject to civil actions, including class actions, relating to this exposure.

We have incurred, and will continue to incur, expenses to comply with data privacy, protection and security standards and protocols for BIGtoken user data imposed by law, regulation, self-regulatory bodies, industry standards and contractual obligations. Such laws, standards and regulations, however, are evolving and subject to potentially differing interpretations, and federal, state and provincial legislative and regulatory bodies may expand current or enact new laws or regulations regarding privacy matters. Additionally, we accept user from foreign countries which subjects us to the personal and other data privacy, protection and security laws of those countries, We are unable to predict what additional legislation, standards or regulation in the area of privacy and security of personal information could be enacted or its effect on our operations and business.

If we are unable to satisfy data privacy, protection, security, and other government- and industry-specific requirements, our growth could be harmed.

We need or may in the future need to comply with a number of data protection, security, privacy and other government- and industry-specific requirements, including those that require companies to notify individuals of data security incidents involving certain types of personal data. Security compromises could harm our reputation, erode user confidence in the effectiveness of our security measures, negatively impact our ability to attract new members, or cause existing users to withdraw their data from BIGtoken.

14

Regulatory, legislative or self-regulatory developments regarding internet privacy matters could adversely affect our ability to conduct our business.

The United States and foreign governments have enacted, considered or are considering legislation or regulations that could significantly restrict our ability to collect, process, use, transfer and pool data collected from and about consumers and devices. Trade associations and industry self-regulatory groups have also promulgated best practices and other industry standards relating to targeted advertising. Various U.S. and foreign governments, self-regulatory bodies and public advocacy groups have called for new regulations specifically directed at the digital advertising industry, and we expect to see an increase in legislation, regulation and self-regulation in this area. The legal, regulatory and judicial environment we face around privacy and other matters is constantly evolving and can be subject to significant change. For example, the General Data Protection Regulation, or GDPR, which was agreed by E.U. institutions in 2016 and came into effect after a two-year transition period on May 25, 2018, updated and modernized the principles of the Company should1995 Data Protection Directive and significantly increases the level of sanctions for non-compliance. Data Protection Authorities will have the power to impose administrative fines of up to a maximum of €20 million or 4% of the data controller’s or data processor’s total worldwide turnover of the preceding financial year. Similarly, the E-Privacy Regulation, which was launched by the European Parliament in October 2016, could result in, once enacted, new rules and mechanisms for “cookie” consent. In addition, the interpretation and application of data protection laws in the U.S., Europe and elsewhere are often uncertain and in flux. Legislative and regulatory authorities around the world may decide to enact additional legislation or regulations, which could reduce the amount of data we can collect or process and, as a result, significantly impact our business. Similarly, clarifications of and changes to these existing and proposed laws, regulations, judicial interpretations and industry standards can be readcostly to comply with, and we may be unable to pass along those costs to our clients in conjunctionthe form of increased fees, which may negatively affect our operating results. Such changes can also delay or impede the development of new solutions, result in negative publicity and reputational harm, require significant incremental management time and attention, increase our risk of non-compliance and subject us to claims or other remedies, including fines or demands that we modify or cease existing business practices, including our ability to charge per click or the scope of clicks for which we charge. Additionally, any perception of our practices or solutions as an invasion of privacy, whether or not such practices or solutions are consistent with current or future regulations and industry practices, may subject us to public criticism, private class actions, reputational harm or claims by regulators, which could disrupt our business and expose us to increased liability. Finally, our legal and financial exposure often depends in part on our clients’ or other third parties’ adherence to privacy laws and regulations and their use of our services in ways consistent with visitors’ expectations. We rely on representations made to us by clients that they will comply with all applicable laws, including all relevant privacy and data protection regulations. We make reasonable efforts to enforce such representations and contractual requirements, but we do not fully audit our clients’ compliance with our recommended disclosures or their adherence to privacy laws and regulations. If our clients fail to adhere to our contracts in this regard, or a court or governmental agency determines that we have not adequately, accurately or completely described our own solutions, services and data collection, use and sharing practices in our own disclosures to consumers, then we and our clients may be subject to potentially adverse publicity, damages and related possible investigation or other regulatory activity in connection with our privacy practices or those of our clients.

Privacy concerns could damage our reputation and deter current and potential users from contributing additional data through our BIGtoken Application. If our security measures are breached resulting in the improper use and disclosure of user data, BIGtoken may be perceived as not being secure, users and customers may curtail or stop using BIGtoken, and we may incur significant legal and financial exposure.

Concerns about our practices with regard to the collection, use, disclosure, or security of user data or other privacy related matters, even if unfounded, could damage our reputation and adversely affect our operating results. Our services will involve the purchase, storage, transmission and sale of user data, and theft and security breaches expose us to a risk of loss of this information, improper use and disclosure of such information, litigation, and potential liability. Any systems failure or compromise of our security that results in the release of user data, or in our or our users’ ability to access such data, could seriously harm our reputation and brand and, therefore, our business, and impair our ability to attract and retain users. Additionally, if user data is somehow made public or made available through a security breach, it may be used to identify our users and people related thereto. We may experience cyber attacks of varying degrees. Our security measures may also be breached due to employee error, malfeasance, system errors or vulnerabilities, including vulnerabilities of our vendors, suppliers, their products, or otherwise. Such breach or unauthorized access, increased government surveillance, or attempts by outside parties to fraudulently induce employees, users, or customers to disclose sensitive information in order to gain access to user data could result in significant legal and financial exposure, damage to our reputation, and a loss of confidence in the security of BIGtoken that could potentially have an adverse effect on our business. Because the techniques used to obtain unauthorized access, disable or degrade service, or sabotage systems change frequently, become more sophisticated, and often are not recognized until launched against a target, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate preventative measures. Additionally, cyber attacks could also compromise trade secrets and other sensitive information and result in such information being disclosed to others and becoming less valuable, which could negatively affect our business. If an actual or perceived breach of our security occurs, the market perception of the effectiveness of our security measures could be harmed and we could lose members and customers.

15

Our business is subject to complex and evolving U.S. and foreign laws and regulations regarding privacy, data protection, content, competition, consumer protection, and other matters. Many of these laws and regulations are subject to change and uncertain interpretation, and could result in claims, changes to our business practices, monetary penalties, increased cost of operations, or declines in user growth or engagement, or otherwise harm our business.

We are subject to a variety of laws and regulations in the United States and abroad that involve matters central to our business, such as privacy, data protection and personal information, rights of publicity, content, intellectual property, advertising, marketing, distribution, data security, data retention and deletion, electronic contracts and other communications, competition, protection of minors, consumer protection, taxation and securities law compliance. Expansion of our activities in certain jurisdictions, or other actions that we may take, may subject us to additional laws, regulations, or other government scrutiny. In addition, foreign data protection, privacy, content, competition, and other laws and regulations can impose different obligations or be more restrictive than those in the United States.

Additionally, as we allow European users, we are subject to the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), effective as of May 2018. The GDPR increases privacy rights for individuals in Europe, extends the scope of responsibilities for data controllers and data processors and imposes increased requirements and potential penalties on companies offering goods or services to individuals who are located in Europe or monitoring the behavior of such individuals (including by companies based outside of Europe). Noncompliance can result in penalties of up to the greater of €20 million, or 4% of global company revenues.

These U.S. federal and state and foreign laws and regulations, which in some cases can be enforced by private parties in addition to government authorities, are constantly evolving and can be subject to significant change. As a result, the application, interpretation, and enforcement of these laws and regulations are often uncertain, particularly in the newer industry in which we operate, and may be interpreted and applied inconsistently from country to country and inconsistently with our current policies and practices.

These laws and regulations, as well as any associated inquiries or investigations or any other government actions, may be costly to comply with and may delay or impede our international growth, result in negative publicity, increase our operating costs, require significant management time and attention, and subject us to remedies that may harm our business.

Security breaches and improper access to or disclosure of our data or user data, or other hacking and phishing attacks on our systems, could harm our reputation and adversely affect our business.

Our industry is prone to cyber-attacks by third parties seeking unauthorized access to our data or users’ data or to disrupt our ability to provide service. Any failure to prevent or mitigate security breaches and improper access to or disclosure of our data or user data, including personal information, content, or payment information from or to users, or information from marketers, could result in the loss or misuse of such data, which could harm our business and reputation and diminish our competitive position. In addition, computer malware, viruses, social engineering (predominantly spear phishing attacks), and general hacking have become more prevalent in our industry. Our BIGtoken platform has experienced an increase in the occurrence of such attempts and we cannot be assured that we will be able to prevent a successful attack on our systems in the future. We also regularly encounter attempts to create false or undesirable user accounts or take other actions on our BIGtoken platform for purposes such as spreading misinformation, attempting to have us improperly purchase user data or other objectionable ends. As a result of recent attention and growth of our BIGtoken platform, the size of our user base, and the types and volume of personal data on our systems, we believe that we are a particularly attractive target for such breaches and attacks. Our efforts to address undesirable activity may also increase the risk of retaliatory attacks. Such attacks may cause interruptions to the services we provide, degrade the user experience, cause users or marketers to lose confidence and trust in our products, impair our internal systems, or result in financial harm to us. Our efforts to protect our company data or the information we receive may also be unsuccessful due to software bugs or other technical malfunctions; employee, contractor, or vendor error or malfeasance; government surveillance; or other threats that evolve. In addition, third parties may attempt to fraudulently induce employees or users to disclose information in order to gain access to our data or our users’ data. Cyber-attacks continue to evolve in sophistication and volume, and inherently may be difficult to detect for long periods of time. Although we are currently in the process of developing systems and processes that are designed to protect our data and user data, to prevent data loss, to disable undesirable accounts and activities on our BIGtoken platform, and to prevent or detect security breaches, we cannot assure you that such measures will ultimately become operational or provide absolute security, and we may incur significant costs in protecting against or remediating cyber-attacks.

16

Affected users or government authorities could initiate legal or regulatory actions against us in connection with any actual or perceived security breaches or improper disclosure of data, which could cause us to incur significant expense and liability or result in orders or consent decrees forcing us to modify our business practices, especially with regard to the BIGtoken platform. Such incidents or our efforts to remediate such incidents may also result in a decline in our active user base or engagement levels. Any of these events could have a material and adverse effect on our business, reputation, or financial results.

Certain user data must be provided on a recurring basis in order to provide full value.

Certain types of user data will need to be contributed by users recurrently for such data to provide full value to our potential customers. If users fail to provide us with sufficient recurring data, the value of the user data may substantially decrease and our ability to earn revenues may be materially affected.

Unfavorable media coverage could negatively affect our business.

Unfavorable publicity regarding, for example, our privacy practices, terms of service, regulatory activity, the actions of third parties, the use of our products or services for illicit, objectionable, or illegal ends or the actions of other companies that provide similar services to us, could adversely affect our reputation. Such negative publicity also could have an adverse effect on the size, engagement, and loyalty of our user base and result in user attrition which could adversely affect our business and financial results.

Weak economic conditions may reduce consumer demand for products and services.

A weak economy in the United States could adversely affect demand for advertising products, and services. A substantial portion of our revenue is derived from businesses that are highly dependent on discretionary spending by individuals, which typically falls during times of economic instability. Accordingly, the ability of our advertisers to increase or maintain revenue and earnings could be adversely affected to the extent that relevant economic environments remain weak or decline further. We currently are unable to predict the extent of any of these potential adverse effects.

Because we store, process and use data, some of which contain personal information, we are subject to complex and evolving federal, state and foreign laws and regulations regarding privacy, data protection and other matters, which are subject to change.

We are subject to a variety of laws and regulations in the United States and other countries that involve matters central to our business, including with respect to user privacy, rights of publicity, data protection, content, protection of minors and consumer protection. These laws can be particularly restrictive in countries outside the United States. Both in the United States and abroad, these laws and regulations constantly evolve and remain subject to significant change. In addition, the application and interpretation of these laws and regulations are often uncertain, particularly in the new and rapidly evolving industry in which we operate. Because we store, process and use data, some of which contain personal information, we are subject to complex and evolving federal, state and foreign laws and regulations regarding privacy, data protection and other matters. Many of these laws and regulations are subject to change and uncertain interpretation and could result in investigations, claims, changes to our business practices, increased cost of operations and declines in user growth, retention or engagement, any of which could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Several proposals are pending before federal, state and foreign legislative and regulatory bodies that could significantly affect our business. For example, a revision to the 1995 European Union Data Protection Directive is currently being considered by European legislative bodies that may include more stringent operational requirements for data processors and significant penalties for non-compliance. In addition, the EU General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 (“GDPR”), which came into effect on May 25, 2018, establishes new requirements applicable to the processing of personal data ( i.e. , data which identifies an individual or from which an individual is identifiable), affords new data protection rights to individuals ( e.g. , the right to erasure of personal data) and imposes penalties for serious data breaches. Individuals also have a right to compensation under GDPR for financial or non-financial losses. GDPR will impose additional responsibility and liability in relation to our processing of personal data. GDPR may require us to change our policies and procedures and, if we are not compliant, could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

17

If advertising on the Internet loses its appeal, our revenue could decline.

Our business model may not continue to be effective in the future for a number of reasons, including:

a decline in the rates that we can charge for advertising and promotional activities;
our inability to create applications for our customers;
Internet advertisements and promotions are, by their nature, limited in content relative to other media;
companies may be reluctant or slow to adopt online advertising and promotional activities that replace, limit or compete with their existing direct marketing efforts;
companies may prefer other forms of Internet advertising and promotions that we do not offer;
the quality or placement of transactions, including the risk of non-screened, non-human inventory and traffic, could cause a loss in customers or revenue; and
regulatory actions may negatively impact our business practices.

If the number of companies who purchase online advertising and promotional services from us does not grow, we may experience difficulty in attracting publishers, and our revenue could decline.

Our stock price may be volatile and your investment in our common stock could suffer a decline in value.

There has been significant volatility in the market price and trading volume of securities of technology and other companies, which may be unrelated to the financial performance of these companies. These broad market fluctuations may negatively affect the market price of our common stock.

Some specific factors that may have a significant effect on the market price of our common stock include:

actual or anticipated fluctuations in our results of operations or our competitors’ operating results;
actual or anticipated changes in the growth rate of the connected lifestyle market, our growth rates or our competitors’ growth rates;
conditions in the financial markets in general or changes in general economic conditions;
changes in governmental regulation, including taxation and tariff policies;
interest rate or currency rate fluctuations;
our ability to forecast accurate financial results; and
changes in stock market analyst recommendations regarding our common stock, other comparable companies or our industry generally

18

We rely upon third parties for technology that is critical to our products, and if we are unable to continue to use this technology and future technology, our ability to develop, sell, maintain and support technologically innovative products would be limited.

We rely on third parties to obtain non-exclusive patented hardware and software license rights in technologies that are incorporated into and necessary for the operation and functionality of most of our products. In these cases, because the intellectual property we license is available from third parties, barriers to entry into certain markets may be lower for potential or existing competitors than if we owned exclusive rights to the technology that we license and use. Moreover, if a competitor or potential competitor enters into an exclusive arrangement with any of our key third-party technology providers, or if any of these providers unilaterally decides not to do business with us for any reason, our ability to develop and sell products and services containing that technology would be severely limited.

If we are offering products or services that contain third-party technology that we subsequently lose the right to license, then we will not be able to continue to offer or support those products or services. In addition, these licenses may require royalty payments or other consideration to the third-party licensor. Our success will depend, in part, on our continued ability to access these technologies, and we do not know whether these third-party technologies will continue to be licensed to us on commercially acceptable terms, if at all. In addition, if these third-party licensors fail or experience instability, then we may be unable to continue to sell products and services that incorporate the licensed technologies, in addition to being unable to continue to maintain and support these products and services. We do require escrow arrangements with respect to certain third-party software which entitle us to certain limited rights to the source code, in the event of certain failures by the third party, in order to maintain and support such software. However, there is no guarantee that we would be able to fully understand and use the source code, as we may not have the expertise to do so. We are increasingly exposed to these risks as we continue to develop and market more products containing third-party technology and software. If we are unable to license the necessary technology, we may be forced to acquire or develop alternative technology, which could be of lower quality or performance standards. The acquisition or development of alternative technology may limit and delay our ability to offer new or competitive products and services and increase our costs of production. As a result, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

The development of our operations and infrastructure in connection with our separation from SRAX, and any future expansion of such operations and infrastructure, may not be successful, and may strain our operations and increase our operating expenses.

In connection with our separation from SRAX, we have begun to implement a new information technology infrastructure for our business, which includes the creation of management information systems and operational and financial controls unique to our business. We may not be able to put in place adequate controls in an efficient and timely manner in connection with our separation from SRAX and as our business grows, and our current systems may not be adequate to support our future operations. The difficulties associated with installing and implementing new systems, procedures and controls may place a significant burden on our management and operational and financial resources. In addition, as we grow internationally, we will have to expand and enhance our communications infrastructure. If we fail to continue to improve our management information systems, procedures and financial controls, or encounter unexpected difficulties during expansion and reorganization, our business could be harmed.

For example, we plan to invest significant capital and human resources in the design, development and enhancement of our financial and operational systems. We will depend on these systems in order to timely and accurately process and report key components of our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. If the systems fail to operate appropriately or we experience any disruptions or delays in enhancing their functionality to meet current business requirements, fulfill contractual obligations, accurately report our financials and otherwise run our business could be adversely affected. Even if we do not encounter these adverse effects, the development and enhancement of systems may be much more costly than we anticipated. If we are unable to continue to develop and enhance our information technology systems as planned, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

As part of growing our business, we may make acquisitions. If we fail to successfully select, execute or integrate our acquisitions, then our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected and our stock price could decline.

From time to time, we may undertake acquisitions to add new product and service lines and technologies, acquire talent, gain new sales channels or enter into new sales territories. Acquisitions involve numerous risks and challenges, including relating to the successful integration of the acquired business, entering into new territories or markets with which we have limited or no prior experience, establishing or maintaining business relationships with new retailers, distributors or other channel partners, vendors and suppliers and potential post-closing disputes.

19

We cannot ensure that we will be successful in selecting, executing and integrating acquisitions. Failure to manage and successfully integrate acquisitions could materially harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, if stock market analysts or our stockholders do not support or believe in the value of the acquisitions that we choose to undertake, our stock price may decline.

Risks Related to Our Separation from SRAX

The separation may not be successful.

Pursuant to the completion of the Share Exchange, we became a stand-alone public company, although we will continue to be controlled by SRAX. The process of becoming a stand-alone public company is complex and may distract our management from focusing on our business and strategic priorities. Further, although we expect to have direct access to the debt and equity capital markets following this offering, we may not be able to issue debt or equity on terms acceptable to us or at all. Moreover, even with equity compensation tied to our business, we may not be able to attract and retain employees as desired.

We also may not fully realize the intended benefits of being a stand-alone public company if any of the risks identified in this “Risk Factors” section, or other events, were to occur. These intended benefits include improving the strategic and operational flexibility of both companies, increasing the focus of the management teams on their respective business operations, allowing each company to adopt the capital structure, investment policy and dividend policy best suited to its financial profile and business needs, and providing each company with its own equity currency to facilitate acquisitions and to better incentivize management. If we do not realize these intended benefits for any reason, our business may be negatively affected. In addition, the separation could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

As long as SRAX controls us, the ability of our other shareholders to influence matters requiring stockholder approval will be limited.

As a result of the Share Exchange, SRAX owns 149,562,566,584 shares of our common stock and 5,000,000 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock, representing voting power of approximately 95% of our issued and outstanding capital stock. For so long as SRAX beneficially owns shares of our outstanding securities representing at least a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the holders of our outstanding securities, SRAX will be able to elect all of the members of our board of directors and influence other voting matters.

SRAX’s ability to control our board of directors may make it difficult for us to recruit high-quality independent directors.

So long as SRAX beneficially owns shares of our outstanding securities representing at least a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the holders of our outstanding shares, SRAX can effectively control and direct our board of directors. Further, the interests of SRAX and our other stockholders may diverge. Under these circumstances, persons who might otherwise accept our invitation to join our board of directors may decline.

SRAX’s interests may conflict with our interests and the interests of our other stockholders. Conflicts of interest between us and SRAX could be resolved in a manner unfavorable to us and our other stockholders.

Various conflicts of interest between us and SRAX could arise. The ownership interest and voting power of SRAX in our capital stock and ownership interests of our directors and officers in SRAX capital stock, or service by an individual as either a director and/or officer of both companies, could create or appear to create potential conflicts of interest when such individuals are faced with decisions relating to us. These decisions could include:

corporate opportunities;

20

the impact that operating or capital decisions (including the incurrence of indebtedness) relating to our business may have on SRAX’s consolidated financial statements and/or current or future indebtedness (including related covenants);
business combinations involving us;
our dividend and stock repurchase policies;
compensation and benefit programs and other human resources policy decisions;
management stock ownership;
the intercompany agreements and services between us and SRAX, including the agreements relating to our separation from SRAX;
the payment of dividends on our common stock; and
determinations with respect to our tax returns.

Potential conflicts of interest could also arise if we decide to enter into new commercial arrangements with SRAX in the future or in connection with SRAX’s desire to enter into new commercial arrangements with third parties. Additionally, we may be constrained by the terms of agreements relating to our indebtedness or equity securities from taking actions, or permitting us to take actions, that may be in our best interest.

Furthermore, disputes may arise between us and SRAX relating to our past and ongoing relationships, and these potential conflicts of interest may make it more difficult for us to favorably resolve such disputes, including those related to:

tax, employee benefit, indemnification and other matters arising from the separation;
the nature, quality and pricing of services SRAX agrees to provide to us; and
sales and other disposals by SRAX of all or a portion of its ownership interest in us.

We may not be able to resolve any potential conflicts, and even if we do, the resolution may be less favorable to us than if we were dealing with an unaffiliated third party. While we are controlled by SRAX, we may not have the leverage to negotiate amendments to our various agreements with SRAX (if any are required) on terms as favorable to us as those we would negotiate with an unaffiliated third party.

The terms of the agreements that we expect to enter into with SRAX in connection with the separation may limit our ability to take certain actions which may prevent us from pursuing opportunities to raise capital, acquire other businesses or provide equity incentives to our employees, which could impair our ability to grow.

The terms of the agreements that we expect to enter into with SRAX in connection with the separation, including the MSA, may limit our ability to take certain actions, which could impair our ability to grow. The MSA provides that, as long as SRAX beneficially owns at least 50% of the total voting power of our outstanding capital stock entitled to vote in the election of our board of directors, we will not (without SRAX’s prior written consent) take certain actions, such as incurring additional indebtedness and acquiring businesses or assets or disposing of assets in excess of certain amounts.

21

We have no operating history as a stand-alone public company and our historical and carve-out financial statementsinformation is not necessarily representative of the results we would have achieved as a stand-alone public company and may not be a reliable indicator of our future results.

The historical financial information we have included in this Annual Report does not reflect, what our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows would have been had we been a stand-alone entity during the historical periods presented, or what our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows will be in the future as an independent entity.

In addition, we have not made pro forma adjustments to reflect many significant changes that will occur in our cost structure, funding and operations as a result of our transition to becoming a public company, including changes in our employee base, potential increased costs associated with reduced economies of scale and increased costs associated with being a publicly traded, stand-alone company.

If SRAX experiences a change in control, our current plans and strategies could be subject to change.

As long as SRAX controls us, it will have significant influence over our plans and strategies, including strategies relating to marketing and growth. In the event SRAX experiences a change in control, SRAX’s incumbent owner(s) may attempt to cause us to revise or change our plans and strategies, as well as the agreements between SRAX and us, described in this Annual Report.

The assets and resources that we acquire from SRAX in the separation may not be sufficient for us to operate as a stand-alone company, and we may experience difficulty in separating our assets and resources from SRAX.

Because we have not operated as an independent company in the past, we will need to acquire assets in addition to those contributed by SRAX and its subsidiaries to us and our subsidiaries in connection with our separation from SRAX. We may also face difficulty in separating our assets from SRAX’s assets and integrating newly acquired assets into our business. Our business, financial condition and results of operations could be harmed if we fail to acquire assets that prove to be important to our operations or if we incur unexpected costs in separating our assets from SRAX’s assets or integrating newly acquired assets.

The services that SRAX provides to us may not be sufficient to meet our needs, which may result in increased costs and otherwise adversely affect our business.

Pursuant to the TSA, we expect SRAX to continue to provide us with corporate and shared services for a transitional period related to corporate functions, such as executive oversight, risk management, information technology, accounting, audit, legal, investor relations, tax, treasury, shared facilities, operations, customer support, human resources and employee benefits, sales and sales operations and other services in exchange for the fees specified in the TSA between us and SRAX. SRAX will not be obligated to provide these services in a manner that differs from the nature of the services provided to the BIGtoken business during the 12-month period prior to the separation, and thus we may not be able to modify these services in a manner desirable to us as a stand-alone public company. Further, if we no longer receive these services from SRAX due to the termination of the TSA or otherwise, we may not be able to perform these services ourselves and/or find appropriate third party arrangements at a reasonable cost (and any such costs may be higher than those charged by SRAX).

Our ability to operate our business effectively may suffer if we are unable to cost-effectively establish our own administrative and other support functions in order to operate as a stand-alone company after the termination of our shared services and other intercompany agreements with SRAX.

As an operating segment of SRAX, we relied on administrative and other resources of SRAX, including information technology, accounting, finance, human resources and legal services, to operate our business. In anticipation of the closing of the Share Exchange, we have entered into various service agreements to retain the ability for specified periods to use these SRAX resources. These services may not be provided at the same level as when we were a business segment within SRAX, and we may not be able to obtain the same benefits that we received prior to becoming a stand-alone company. These services may not be sufficient to meet our needs, and after our agreements with SRAX terminates, we may not be able to replace these services at all or obtain these services at prices and on terms as favorable as we currently have with SRAX. We will need to create our own administrative and other support systems or contract with third parties to replace SRAX’s systems. In addition, we have received informal support from SRAX, which may not be addressed in the agreements we have entered into with SRAX, and the related notes thereto included elsewherelevel of this informal support may diminish as we become a more independent company. Any failure or significant downtime in our own administrative systems or in SRAX’S administrative systems during the transitional period could result in unexpected costs, impact our results and/or prevent us from paying our suppliers or employees and performing other administrative services on a timely basis.

22

We are a smaller company relative to SRAX, which could result in increased costs and decreased revenue due to difficulty maintaining existing customer relationships and obtaining new customers.

Prior to the completion of the Share Exchange with SRAX, we were able to take advantage of SRAX’s size, technology and services, including insurance, employee benefit support and audit and other professional services. We are a smaller company than SRAX and we cannot assure you that we will have access to financial and other resources comparable to those available to us prior to this offering. As a stand-alone company, we may be unable to obtain office space, goods, technology and services in general, as well as components and services that are part of our supply chain, at prices or on terms as favorable as those available to us prior to this offering, which could increase our costs and reduce our profitability. Our future success depends on our ability to maintain our current relationships with existing customers, and we may have difficulty attracting new customers.

SRAX has agreed to indemnify us for certain liabilities. However, we cannot assure that the indemnity will be sufficient to insure us against the full amount of such liabilities, or that SRAX’s ability to satisfy its indemnification obligation will not be impaired in the future.

Pursuant to the MSA and certain other agreements with SRAX, SRAX has agreed to indemnify us for certain liabilities. The MSA will provide for cross-indemnities principally designed to place financial responsibility for the obligations and liabilities of our business with us and financial responsibility for the obligations and liabilities of SRAX’s business with SRAX.

However, third parties could also seek to hold us responsible for any of the liabilities that SRAX has agreed to retain, and we cannot assure that an indemnity from SRAX will be sufficient to protect us against the full amount of such liabilities, or that SRAX will be able to fully satisfy its indemnification obligations in the future. Even if we ultimately succeed in recovering from SRAX any amounts for which we are held liable, we may be temporarily required to bear these losses. Each of these risks could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Certain contracts used in our business will need to be replaced, or assigned from SRAX or its affiliates in connection with the separation, which may require the consent of the counterparty to such an assignment, and failure to obtain such replacement contracts or consents could increase our expenses or otherwise adversely affect our results of operations.

Our separation from SRAX requires us to replace shared contracts and, with respect to certain contracts that are to be assigned from SRAX or its affiliates to us or our affiliates, to obtain consents and assignments from third parties. It is possible that, in connection with the replacement or consent process, some parties may seek more favorable contractual terms from us. If we are unable to obtain such replacement contracts or consents, as applicable, we may be unable to obtain some of the benefits, assets and contractual commitments that are intended to be allocated to us as part of the separation. If we are unable to obtain such replacement contracts or consents, the loss of these contracts could increase our expenses or otherwise materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Some of our directors and officers own SRAX common stock, restricted shares of SRAX common stock or options to acquire SRAX common stock and hold positions with SRAX, which could cause conflicts of interest, or the appearance of conflicts of interest, that result in our not acting on opportunities we otherwise may have.

Some of our directors and executive officers own SRAX common stock, restricted shares of SRAX stock or options to purchase SRAX common stock.

23

Ownership of SRAX common stock, restricted shares of SRAX common stock and options to purchase SRAX common stock by our directors and executive officers, and the presence of executive officers or directors of SRAX on our board of directors could create, or appear to create, conflicts of interest with respect to matters involving both us and SRAX that could have different implications for SRAX than they do for us. For example, potential conflicts of interest could arise in connection with the resolution of any dispute between SRAX and us regarding terms of the agreements governing the separation and the relationship between SRAX and us thereafter, including the MSA or the transition services agreement. Potential conflicts of interest could also arise if we enter into commercial arrangements with SRAX in the future. As a result of these actual or apparent conflicts of interest, we may be precluded from pursuing certain growth initiatives.

We may have received better terms from unaffiliated third parties than the terms we will receive in the agreements that we entered with SRAX.

The agreements that we entered into with SRAX in connection with the separation, including the MSA and the TSA were prepared in the context of the separation while we were still a wholly owned subsidiary of SRAX.

Risks Related to Our Securities

Sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market could cause our stock price to fall.

On January 27, 2021 we entered into the Debt Exchange Agreement with Red Diamond. Pursuant to the Debt Exchange Agreement, we issued Red Diamond 7,000,000,000 free trading shares of Common Stock or approximately 837% of the prior public float of 841,184,289. We also issued Red Diamond 8,313 shares of Series C Preferred Stock, convertible into approximately 12,864,419,313 shares of Common Stock. Although Red Diamond agreed to a leak out of 20% of average daily volume for the five trading days preceding the sale, this will still result in a significant number of shares compared to our prior public float and will be difficult to monitor compliance. Sales of a substantial number of such shares now and upon expiration of the leak-out period or the perception that such sales may occur, could cause our market price to fall or make it more difficult for you to sell your common stock at a time and price that you deem appropriate.

If our stock price is extremely volatile and subject to price which may result in you losing a significant part of your investment.

The market price of our common stock will be influenced by many factors, some of which are beyond our control, including those described in this Report. SomeRisk Factors section and include the following:

the failure of securities analysts to cover our common stock after this offering or changes in financial estimates by analysts;
the inability to meet the financial estimates of securities analysts who follow our common stock or changes in earnings estimates by analysts;
strategic actions by us or our competitors;
announcements by us or our competitors of significant contracts, acquisitions, joint marketing relationships, joint ventures or capital commitments;
our quarterly or annual earnings, or those of other companies in our industry;
actual or anticipated fluctuations in our operating results and those of our competitors;
general economic and stock market conditions;
the public reaction to our press releases, our other public announcements and our filings with the SEC;
risks related to our business and our industry, including those discussed above;
changes in conditions or trends in our industry, markets or customers;

24

the trading volume of our common stock;
future sales of our common stock or other securities;
investor perceptions of the investment opportunity associated with our common stock relative to other investment alternatives.

In particular, the realization of any of the statements containedrisks described in these “Risk Factors” could have a material adverse impact on the market price of our common stock in the future and cause the value of your investment to decline. In addition, the stock market in general has experienced extreme volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These broad market and industry factors may materially reduce the market price of our common stock, regardless of our operating performance. In addition, price volatility may be greater if the public float and trading volume of our common stock is low.

We have never paid a cash dividend and do not intend to pay cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

We have never paid a cash dividend, nor do we anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Accordingly, any return on your investment will be as a result of the appreciation of our common stock if any.

Future sales, or the perception of future sales, of our common stock, including by SRAX, may depress the price of our common stock.

The market price of our common stock could decline significantly as a result of sales or other distributions of a large number of shares of our common stock in the market, including shares that might be offered for sale or distributed by SRAX. The perception that these sales might occur could depress the market price of our common stock. These sales, or the possibility that these sales may occur, also might make it more difficult for us to sell equity securities in the future at a time and at a price that we deem appropriate. As a result of the Share Exchange, we issued SRAX 149,562,566,584 shares of common stock. As we are currently not cash flow positive, we will be required to raise significant capital in the future through the sale of our debt and equity securities. Also, in the future, we may issue our securities in connection acquisitions. The amount of shares of our common stock issued in connection with an investment or acquisition could constitute a material portion of our then-outstanding shares of our common stock. The sale of these shares into the market could greatly depress the market price of our common stock.

Our costs will increase significantly as a result of operating as a public company, and our management will be required to devote substantial time to complying with public company regulations.

We have historically operated our business as a segment of a public company. As a stand-alone public company, we will have additional legal, accounting, insurance, compliance and other expenses that we have not incurred historically. After this Reportoffering, we will become obligated to file with the SEC annual and quarterly reports and other reports that are not historical facts are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning ofspecified in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,13 and Section 21Eother sections of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). We will also be required to ensure that we have the ability to prepare financial statements that are fully compliant with all SEC reporting requirements on a timely basis. In addition, we will become subject to other reporting and corporate governance requirements, including certain provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Sarbanes-Oxley”) and the regulations promulgated thereunder, which will impose significant compliance obligations upon us.

Sarbanes-Oxley, as well as rules subsequently implemented by the SEC, have imposed increased regulation and disclosure and required enhanced corporate governance practices of public companies. We are committed to maintaining a high standard of public disclosure, and our efforts to comply with evolving laws, regulations and standards in this regard are likely to result in increased selling and administrative expenses and a diversion of management’s time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. These changes will require a significant commitment of additional resources. We may not be successful in implementing these requirements and implementing them could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, if we fail to implement the requirements with respect to our internal accounting and audit functions, our ability to report our operating results on a timely and accurate basis could be impaired. If we do not implement such requirements in a timely manner or with adequate compliance, we might be subject to sanctions or investigation by regulatory authorities, such as the SEC. Any such action could harm our reputation and the confidence of investors and customers in us and could materially adversely affect our business and cause our share price to fall.

25

Failure to achieve and maintain effective internal controls in accordance with Section 404 of Sarbanes-Oxley could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and stock price.

As a public company, we will be required to document and test our internal control procedures in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of Sarbanes-Oxley (“Section 404”), which will require annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Upon loss of emerging growth company status, an annual report by our independent registered public accounting firm that addresses the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting will be required. During the course of our testing, we may identify deficiencies which we may not be able to remediate in time to meet our deadline for compliance with Section 404. Testing and maintaining internal control can divert our management’s attention from other matters that are important to the operation of our business. We also expect the regulations under Sarbanes-Oxley to increase our legal and financial compliance costs, make it more difficult to attract and retain qualified officers and members of our board of directors, particularly to serve on our audit committee, and make some activities more difficult, time consuming and costly. We may not be identifiedable to conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal control over our financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 or our independent registered public accounting firm may not be able or willing to issue an unqualified report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. If we conclude that our internal control over financial reporting is not effective, we cannot be certain as to the timing of completion of our evaluation, testing and remediation actions or their effect on our operations because there is presently no precedent available by which to measure compliance adequacy. If either we are unable to conclude that we have effective internal control over our financial reporting or, if required under SEC rules, our independent auditors are not engaged to provide us with an unqualified report as required by Section 404, then investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our stock.

If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about our business, if they adversely change their recommendations regarding our stock or if our operating results do not meet their expectations, our stock price could decline.

The trading market for our common stock will be influenced by the useresearch and reports that industry or securities analysts publish about us or our business. If one or more of terminologythese analysts cease coverage of us or fail to publish reports on us regularly, we could lose visibility in the financial markets, which in turn could cause our stock price or trading volume to decline. Moreover, if one or more of the analysts who cover us downgrades our stock or if our operating results do not meet their expectations, our stock price could decline.

We could be subject to securities class action litigation.

In the past, securities class action litigation has often been instituted against companies whose securities have experienced periods of volatility and decline in market price. Recently, we have seen the price of our Common Stock decline from approximately $0.10 to less than $0.02, a decline of approximately 80%. Securities litigation brought against us following such decline in the price of our common stock is likely regardless of the merit or ultimate results of such litigation. Such litigation will result in substantial costs, which would hurt our financial condition and results of operations and divert management’s attention and resources from our business.

Your percentage ownership may be diluted in the future.

In the future, your percentage ownership may be diluted because of our need to raise additional capital, the conversion of outstanding convertible securities and the granting of equity awards to our directors, officers and employees or otherwise as “estimates,” “projects,” “plans,” “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,”a result of equity issuances for acquisitions or capital market transactions. In connection with and following the Share Exchange, we anticipate granting equity awards to our employees and directors. In addition, following the Share Exchange, we will have outstanding a number of securities that are convertible into shares of our common stock. Upon conversion, you will experience substantial dilution.

26

In addition, our Articles of Incorporation authorize us to issue, without the approval of our stockholders, one or more classes or series of preferred stock having such designation, powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other special rights, including preferences over our common stock respecting dividends and distributions, as our board of directors generally may determine. The terms of one or more classes or series of preferred stock could dilute the voting power or reduce the value of our Common Stock. For example, the Company could grant the holders of preferred stock the right to elect some number of our directors in all events or on the happening of specified events or the negativeright to veto specified transactions.

We are a smaller reporting company and as a result have certain reduced disclosure requirements.

We are a “smaller reporting company” as defined in the Securities Act, as such, we are required to comply with certain reduced disclosure requirements for public company reporting requirements for future filings. As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to disclose certain executive compensation information only two years of audited financial statements in our public filings.

Our board of directors will have the ability to issue blank check preferred stock, which may discourage or impede acquisition attempts or other variations,transactions.

Our board of directors will have the power, subject to applicable law, to issue series of preferred stock that could, depending on the terms of the series, impede the completion of a merger, tender offer or other takeover attempt. For instance, subject to applicable law, a series of preferred stock may impede a business combination by discussionsincluding class voting rights, which would enable the holder or holders of strategy that involve risks and uncertainties. However, as the Company intendssuch series to block a proposed transaction. Our board of directors will make any determination to issue shares of preferred stock on its judgment as to our and our stockholders’ best interests. Our board of directors, in so acting, could issue shares of preferred stock having terms which could discourage an acquisition attempt or other transaction that some, or a majority, of the stockholders may believe to be in their best interests or in which stockholders would have received a premium for their stock over the then prevailing market price of the stock.

Our common stock may be considered a “penny stock,” as such termand may be subject to additional sale and trading regulations that may make it more difficult to sell.

Our common stock may be considered a “penny stock.” The principal result or effect of being designated a penny stock is definedthat securities broker-dealers participating in Rule 3a51-1sales of our common stock may be subject to the penny stock regulations set forth in Rules 15g-2 through 15g-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act,Act. For example, Rule 15g-2 requires broker-dealers dealing in penny stocks to provide potential investors with a document disclosing the Company is ineligiblerisks of penny stocks and to relyobtain a manually signed and dated written receipt of the document at least two business days before effecting any transaction in a penny stock for the investor’s account. Moreover, Rule 15g-9 requires broker-dealers in penny stocks to approve the account of any investor for transactions in such stocks before selling any penny stock to that investor. This procedure requires the broker-dealer to (i) obtain from the investor information concerning his or her financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives; (ii) reasonably determine, based on these safe harbor provisions. We urge youthat information, that transactions in penny stocks are suitable for the investor and that the investor has sufficient knowledge and experience as to be cautiousreasonably capable of evaluating the risks of penny stock transactions; (iii) provide the investor with a written statement setting forth the basis on which the broker-dealer made the determination in (ii) above; and (iv) receive a signed and dated copy of such statement from the investor, confirming that it accurately reflects the investor’s financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives. Compliance with these requirements may make it more difficult and time consuming for holders of our common stock to resell their shares to third parties or to otherwise dispose of them in the market or otherwise.

The

Employee related costs consist of salaries other compensation and related costs paid to our employees and contractors. We expect these costs to increase in absolute dollars as we invest and expand our business.

Marketing and selling expenses

Covid-19

In December 2019, an outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) originated in Wuhan, China and has since spread to a number of other countries, including the U.S. On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization characterized COVID-19 as a pandemic. In addition, several states in the U.S., including California, where the Company is inheadquartered, have experienced an increase of new cases of COVID-19. It is uncertain if this trend will continue into the business of selling video and audio capture devices initially targeted to law enforcement agencies. The Company has established a web site at www.forceprovideo.com whereby customers can view the Company’s products and place orders. We believe that given recent current events between law enforcement agencies and the public, which has been widely reported2021, as shown by the media, thererecent uptick in reported cases.

Net cash provided by financing activities  4,497,000   8,194,000 

Cash flows from operating activities

Our largest source of operating cash is payments from customers. Our customers typically pay us from 60 to 120 days from the date we invoice them. The primary use of operating cash is to pay our media suppliers, employees and our users through point redemptions, and others for a wide range of services. Cash flows used in our operating activities decreased by $3,162,000 or 42% in 2020 primarily driven by a reduction in operating expenses.

Cash flows from investing activities

Our principal recurring investing activity is the funding of our internal software development. Expenditures for software development were $572,000 and $748,000 for the years ended 2020 and 2019, respectively. During the year-ended 2020, the Company generated $397,000 from the sale of marketable securities it held in a customer.

Cash flows from financing activities

Cash provided by financing activities represents cash contributed by our videoParent to fund our operations. We have accounted for these cash contributions initially as Net Parent Investment within the equity section of our Carve-Out Balance Sheets. Upon the Reverse Merger, the Net Parent Investment has been presented as the par value and audio capture devicesadditional paid-in capital for the common stock and related accessories. Forseries A preferred stock equivalent number of shares received by SRAX from the Reverse Merger.

Cash provided by financing activities for the year ended April 30, 2019,December 31, 2020 decreased by approximately $3,697,000 or 45%. This decrease was driven primarily by the Company recognized $163,740decrease in our operating activities.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Historically, our operations have participated in cash management and funding arrangements managed by SRAX. Cash flows related to financing activities primarily reflect changes in Net parent investment. Other than those that are in BIGtoken designated legal entities, SRAX’s cash has not been assigned to us for any of revenue comparedthe periods presented because those cash balances are not directly attributable to $159,672 duringus. Cash and cash equivalents presented in the combined balance sheets represent amounts pertaining to the BIGtoken legal entity only. Cash used in operations decreased from $7,484,000 for the year ended April 30, 2018. The increaseDecember 31, 2019 to $4,322,000 for the year ended December 31, 2020 due primarily to a reduction in sales is dueoperating expenses. Prior to the Share Exchange, we were dependent on SRAX for our continued support to fund our operations. Upon the close of our Share Exchange, we obtained access to approximately $1,000,000 in cash on hand and have raised an additional $4,500,000 through a private offering of our Series B Preferred Stock.

Our capital structure and sources of liquidity will change significantly from our historical capital structure. Following the Share Exchange, we expect to use cash flows generated from operations, together with $1,000,000 in cash on-hand and the proceeds of $4,500,000 from the sale of preferred stock, as our primary sources of liquidity. Based on our current plans and market conditions, we believe that such sources of liquidity will be sufficient to satisfy our anticipated cash requirements for at least through the third quarter of 2021. We plan on embracing digital assets such as cryptocurrencies going forward. At present we have not finalized any operating plans and accordingly, do not yet have an estimate of the amount of additional capital that such initiatives will require or the impact of such initiatives on our cash burn rate. However, we may require or desire additional funds to support our operating expenses and capital requirements or for other purposes, such as acquisitions, and may seek to raise such additional funds through public or private equity or debt financing or from other sources. We cannot assure you that additional financing will be available at all or that, if available, such financing would be obtainable on terms favorable to us and would not be dilutive. Our future liquidity and cash requirements will depend on numerous factors, including the introduction of our linenew products and potential acquisitions of covert video surveillance devices as well as an increase in product demand and the implementation of our marketing strategy. To increase future sales volume, the Company has begun to actively seek out and submit competitive product quotes in response to police department requests for quotes (“RFQ”) as well as the continued introduction of new products.related businesses or technology.

These conditions raiseaccordingly, these factors create substantial doubt about ourthe Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management recognizesconcern within one year after the date that in order for us to meet our capital requirements, and continue to operate, additional financing will be necessary. We expect to raise additional funds through private or public equity investment in order to expand the range and scope of business operations. We will try to raise additional funds through private or public equity but there is no assurance that such additional funds will be available for us to finance our operations on acceptable terms, if at all.

The Master Separation Agreement

The MSA identifies assets to be transferred, liabilities to be assumed and contracts to be assigned to each of us and SRAX as part of the separation of SRAX into two companies, and will provide for when and how these transfers, assumptions and assignments will occur. In particular, the MSA provides for, among other things, that, subject to certain exceptions and the terms and conditions contained therein:

the assets exclusively related to the businesses and operations of SRAX’s BIG Token business as well as certain other assets mutually agreed upon by SRAX and BIG Token, which we collectively refer to as the “BIG Token Assets,” will be transferred to FPVD or one of our subsidiaries;
certain liabilities (including whether accrued, contingent or otherwise) arising out of or resulting from the BIG Token Assets, and other liabilities related to the businesses and operations of SRAX’s BIG Token business, which we collectively refer to as the “BIG Token Liabilities,” will be retained by or transferred to us or one of our subsidiaries;
certain shared contracts will be assigned in part to us or our applicable subsidiaries or be appropriately amended.

Except as may expressly be set forth in the MSA or any other transaction agreements, all assets will be transferred on an “as is,” “where is” basis, and the respective transferees will bear the economic and legal risks that (1) any conveyance will prove to be insufficient to vest in the transferee good title, free and clear of any security interest, and (2) any necessary consents or governmental approvals are not obtained or that any requirements of laws or judgments are not complied with.

Claims

Further Assurances

We anticipate that our ongoing costs and expenses of complying with our public reporting company obligations will be approximately $50,000 annually, which we expect to pay for out of proceeds from our financing efforts during the next twelve months from the date of this report. Subsequent to the next twelve-month reporting and compliance period, we expect to pay for our publicly reporting company compliance and reporting costs from our gross profits, although there is no assurance that sufficient revenues will be generated to cover said costs. We must structure, establish, maintain and operate our Company under corporate policies designed to ensure compliance with all required public company laws, rules and regulations, including, without limitation, the Securities Act of 1933, the Securities Act of 1934, the Sarbanes- Oxley Act of 2002, the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the respective rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that have a significant impact on the results that we report in our financial statements. Some of our accounting policies require us to make difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates regarding matters that are inherently uncertain. Certain of these significant accounting policies require us to make critical accounting estimates, as defined below.

A critical accounting estimate is defined as one that is both material to the presentation of our financial statements andGAAP requires management to make difficult, subjective or complex judgmentsestimates and assumptions that could have a material effect onaffect the reported amount in our carve-out financial conditionstatements and results of operations. Specifically,related notes. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate estimates which are subject to significant judgment. The more critical accounting estimates include estimates related to revenue recognition and accounts receivable allowances. We also have other key accounting policies, which involve the following attributes:use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that are significant to understanding our results, which are described in Note 1 to our carve-out financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 appearing elsewhere in this report.

 

The following critical accounting policies affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our carve-out financial statements. In addition, you should refer to our accompanying carve-out balance sheets as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the carve-out statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related notes thereto, for further discussion of our accounting policies.

·

we are required to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time of the estimate; and

·

different estimates we could reasonably have used, or changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur, would have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

 

Estimates and assumptions about future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty. We baseOn an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates oncompared to historical experience and trends, which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities. To the extent that there are material differences between our estimates and our actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows will be affected.

We believe the assumptions and estimates associated with the following have the greatest potential impact on various other assumptions believed to be applicable and reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates may change as new events occur, as additional information is obtained and as our operating environment changes. These changes have historically been minor andconsolidated financial statements.

Use of Estimates

The Carve-Out Financial Statements have been includedprepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP and requires management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions in the financial statements as soon as they became known. Based on a critical assessmentpreparation of our accounting policies andthese Carve-Out Financial Statements that affect the underlying judgments and uncertainties affecting the application of those policies, management believes that our financial statements are fairly stated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and present a meaningful presentation of our financial condition and results of operations.

Our most critical accounting estimates include:

·

the recognition and measurement of current and deferred income taxes, which impact our provision for taxes

·

Fair value measurements

Below, we discuss this policy further, as well as the estimates and judgments involved.

Income Taxes

Provisions for income taxes are based on taxes payable or refundable for the current period and deferred taxes on temporary differences between the amount of taxable income and pretax financial income and between the tax basesreported amounts of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements. Deferred taxdisclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Carve-Out Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions.

The most significant areas that require management judgment and which are includedsusceptible to possible change in the financial statements at currently enactednear term include the Company’s revenue recognition, provision for bad debts, BIGtoken point redemption liability, stock-based compensation, income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assetstaxes, goodwill and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled.intangible assets.

 

When accounting for UncertaintyAs of December 31, 2020, the impact of COVID-19 continues to unfold and as a result, certain estimates and assumptions require increased judgment and carry a higher degree of variability and volatility that could result in Income Taxes, first, the tax position is evaluatedmaterial changes to determine the likelihood that it will be sustained upon external examination. If the tax position is deemed “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained, the tax position is then assessed to determine the amount of benefit to recognizeour estimates in the financial statements. The amount of the benefit that may be recognized is the largest amount that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The Company’s utilization of U.S. Federal net operating losses will be limited in accordance to Section 381 rules. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.future periods.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value Measurements

The accounting standard for fair value measurements provides a framework for measuring fair value and requires disclosures regarding fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In determiningdate, based on the Company’s principal or, in absence of a principal, most advantageous market for the specific asset or liability.

The Company uses a three-tier fair value hierarchy to classify and disclose all assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, as well as assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis, in periods subsequent to their initial measurement. The hierarchy requires the Company uses various methods including market, income and cost approaches. Based on these approaches, the Company often utilizes certain assumptions that market participants wouldto use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and or the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable inputs. The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Based on the observability of the inputs, used in the valuation techniques the Company is required to provide the following information according to thewhen determining fair value hierarchy.value. The fair value hierarchy ranks the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. Financial assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:tiers are defined as follows:

 

Level 1 — Quoted1—Observable inputs that reflect quoted market prices (unadjusted) for identical assets andor liabilities traded in active exchange markets, such as the national stock exchanges.

markets;

Level 2 — 2—Observable inputs other than Level 1 including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in less active markets that are observable either directly or other observableindirectly in the marketplace for identical or similar assets and liabilities; and

Level 3—Unobservable inputs that can be corroborated by observable market data. Level 2 also includes derivative contracts whose value is determined using a pricing model with observable market inputs or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputsare supported by little or no market activity for financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments fordata, which require the Company to develop its own assumptions.

37

The determination of fair value and the assessment of a measurement’s placement within the hierarchy requires significantjudgment. Level 3 valuations often involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity. Level 3 valuations may require the use of various cost, market, or income valuation methodologies applied to unobservable management judgmentestimates and assumptions. Management’s assumptions could vary depending on the asset or estimation;liability valued and the valuation method used. Such assumptions could include: estimates of prices, earnings, costs, actions of market participants, market factors, or the weighting of various valuation methods. The Company may also includes observable inputs for nonbinding single dealer quotes not corroborated by observable market data.engage external advisors to assist us in determining fair value, as appropriate.

 

TheAlthough the Company has various processes and controls in place to ensurebelieves that the recorded fair value is reasonably estimated. Where market information is not available to support internal valuations, independent reviews of the valuations are performed and any material exposures are evaluated.

Many of our financial instruments is appropriate, these fair values may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values.

The Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, net accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, are issuedcarried at historical cost. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the carrying amounts of these instruments approximated their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The Company measures certain non-financial assets, liabilities, and equity issuances at fair value on a non-recurring basis. These non-recurring valuations include evaluating assets such as long-lived assets and goodwill for impairment; allocating value to assets in conjunctionan acquired asset group; and applying accounting for business combinations.

MARKETABLE SECURITIES

Shares received will be accounted for in accordance with ASC 320 – Investments – Debt and Equity Securities, as such the shares will be classified as available-for-sale securities and will be measured at each reporting period at fair value with the issuanceunrealized gain (loss) as a component of debt. Atother income (expense). Upon the timesale of issuance, we allocate the proceeds receivedshares, the Company will record the gain (loss) in the carve-out statement of operations as a component of other income (expense).

LONG-LIVED ASSETS

Management evaluates the recoverability of the Company’s identifiable intangible assets and other long-lived assets when events or circumstances indicate a potential impairment exists. Events and circumstances considered by the Company in determining whether the carrying value of identifiable intangible assets and other long-lived assets may not be recoverable include, but are not limited to: significant changes in performance relative to expected operating results; significant changes in the various financial instrumentsuse of the assets; significant negative industry or economic trends; a significant decline in the Company’s stock price for a sustained period of time; and this involveschanges in the determinationCompany’s business strategy. In determining if impairment exists, the Company estimates the undiscounted cash flows to be generated from the use and ultimate disposition of fair value. From time to time,these assets. If impairment is indicated based on a comparison of the assets’ carrying values and the undiscounted cash flows, the impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of these financial instruments exceeds the proceeds received. When this occurs, we critically evaluate the validity of the fair value computation.

FORCE PROTECTION VIDEO EQUIPMENT CORP

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

APRIL 30, 2019 AND 2018

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY of significant accounting policies

Organization

Force Protection Video Equipment Corp., together with its wholly owned subsidiary, Cobraxtreme HD Corp. (collectively, the Company), is in the business of selling video and audio capture devices and accessories to consumers and law enforcement. Force Protection Video Equipment Corp. was incorporated on March 11, 2011, under the laws of the State of Florida. On February 2, 2015 the Company changed its name to Force Protection Video Equipment Corp.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Going Concern

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

During the years ended April 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company had a net operating loss of $543,825 and $1,037,066, respectively. As of April 30, 2019, the Company had negative working capital of $747,347, an accumulated deficit of $4,573,287, and net cash used in operations of $41,461.

In view of these conditions, the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is in doubt and dependent upon achieving a profitable level of operations and on the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to fund ongoing operations. Historically, the Company has relied upon funds from the sale of shares of stock, issuance of promissory notes and loans from its shareholders and private investors to finance its operations and growth. Management is planning to raise necessary additional funds for working capital through loans and/or additional sales of its common stock. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising additional capital or that such additional funds will be available on acceptable terms, if at all. Should the Company be unable to raise this amount of capital its operating plans will be limited to the amount of capital that it can access. These consolidated financial statements do not give effect to any adjustments which will be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and therefore be required to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in other than the normal course of business and at amounts different from those reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Earnings Per Share

Basic income per common share is computed based upon the weighted average common shares outstanding as defined by FASB ASC No. 260, Earnings Per Share.

The computation of basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is based on the weighted average number of shares that were outstanding during the period, including shares of common stock that are issuable at the end of the reporting period. The computation of diluted EPS is based on the number of basic weighted-average shares outstanding plus the number of common shares that would be issued assuming the exercise of all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding using the treasury stock method. The computation of diluted net income per share does not assume conversion, exercise or contingent issuance of securities that would have an antidilutive effect on earnings per share. Therefore, when calculating EPS, if the Company experienced a loss, there is no inclusion of dilutive securities as their inclusion in the EPS calculation is antidilutive. Furthermore, options and warrants will have a dilutive effect under the treasury stock method only when the average market price of the common stock during the period exceeds the exercise price of the options or warrants (they are in the money).

Concentrations of risk

During the year ended April 30, 2019, no customers accounted for greater than 10% of sales; while during the twelve months ended April 30, 2018, two customers accounted for 34.5% (24.1% and 10.4%) of sales.

The Company relies on third parties for the supply and manufacture of its capture devices, some of which are sole-source suppliers. The Company believes that outsourcing manufacturing enables greater scale and flexibility. As demand and product lines change, the Company periodically evaluates the need and advisability of adding manufacturers to support its operations. In instances where a supply and manufacture agreement does not exist or suppliers fail to perform their obligations, the Company may be unable to find alternative suppliers or satisfactorily deliver its products to its customers on time, if at all. During the year ended April 30, 2019, there were no inventory purchases. During the year ended April 30 2018, four suppliers accounted for 62.6% (19.2%, 16.9%, 14.3% and 12.2%) of the Company’s inventory purchases.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates

In preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Our most significant estimates are for stock-based compensation; assumptions used in calculating derivative liabilities, and deferred tax valuation allowances. We evaluate our estimates on an ongoing basis. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Table of Contents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash is maintained with a major financial institution in the United States. Deposits with this bank may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits. Generally, these deposits may be redeemed on demand and, therefore, bear minimal risk. The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company had no cash equivalents at either April 30, 2019 or 2018.

Cash Flow Reporting

The Company follows ASC 230, Statement of Cash Flows, for cash flows reporting, classifies cash receipts and payments according to whether they stem from operating, investing, or financing activities and provides definitions of each category, and uses the indirect or reconciliation method (“indirect method”) as defined by ASC 230, Statement of Cash Flows, to report net cash flow from operating activities by adjusting net income to reconcile it to net cash flow from operating activities by removing the effects of (a) all deferrals of past operating cash receipts and payments and all accruals of expected future operating cash receipts and payments and (b) all items that are included in net income that do not affect operating cash receipts and payments.

Inventory

The Company’s inventory is comprised of finished goods and primarily includes cameras and recording equipment. The Company’s inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market and expensed to cost of goods sold upon sale using the average-cost method. The Company also makes prepayments against the future delivery of inventory classified as prepaid inventory. During the year ended April 30, 2019, the Company wrote down $110,418 of obsolete inventory. The Company plans to become a drop ship third-party seller that will reduce the need to carry inventory.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are reported at the customers’ outstanding balances. The Company does not have a history of significant bad debt and has not recorded any allowance for doubtful accounts. Interest is not accrued on overdue accounts receivable. The Company evaluates receivables on a regular basis for potential reserve with none this period.

Leases

In accordance with ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), the Company recognizes lease assets and liabilities with terms in excess of twelve months on its balance sheet. The Company capitalizes operating lease obligations as a right-of-use asset with a corresponding liability based on the present value of future operating leases.

Property and Equipment

Fixed assets are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Major improvements are capitalized, while repair and maintenance are expensed when incurred. Renewals and betterments that materially extendAmortization is provided for on the life of the assets are capitalized. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in income for the period.

For federal income tax purposes, depreciation is computed under the modified accelerated cost recovery system. Depreciation for financial statement purposes is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets of five to nine years.

Costs incurred to develop computer software for internal use are capitalized once: (1) the preliminary project stage is completed, (2) management authorizes and commits to funding a specific software project, and (3) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. Costs incurred prior to meeting the qualifications are expensed as incurred. Capitalization of costs ceases when the project is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Post-implementation costs related assets. Theto the internal use computer software, are expensed as incurred. Internal use software development costs are amortized using the straight-line method over its estimated useful liveslife which ranges up to three years. Software development costs may become impaired in situations where development efforts are abandoned due to the viability of depreciable assets are:the planned project becoming doubtful or due to technological obsolescence of the planned software product.

 

During 2018, the Company began to capitalize the costs of developing internal-use computer software, including directly related payroll costs.

Long-Lived AssetsThe Company capitalizes costs incurred during the application development stage of internal-use software and amortize these costs over the estimated useful life. Upgrades and enhancements are capitalized if they result in added functionality which enable the software to perform tasks it was previously incapable of performing. Software maintenance, training, data conversion, and business process reengineering costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.

In accordance with ASC 350,

Goodwill

Goodwill is comprised of the purchase price of business combinations in excess of the fair value assigned at acquisition to the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized. The Company regularly reviewstests goodwill for impairment for its reporting units on an annual basis, or when events occur or circumstances indicate the fair value of a reporting unit is below its carrying value. If the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that implied fair value of the goodwill within the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. The Company performed its most recent annual goodwill impairment test as of December 31, 2020 using market data and discounted cash flow analysis. Based on this analysis, it was determined that the fair value exceeded the carrying value of intangibleits reporting units.

39

The Company had historically performed its annual goodwill and impairment assessment on December 31st of each year. This aligns the Company with other long-lived assetstechnology companies who also generally conduct this annual analysis in the fourth quarter.

When evaluating the potential impairment of goodwill, management first assess a range of qualitative factors, including but not limited to, macroeconomic conditions, industry conditions, the competitive environment, changes in the market for the existence of facts or circumstances, both internallyCompany’s products and externally, that suggest impairment. If impairment testing indicates a lack of recoverability, an impairment loss is recognized byservices, regulatory and political developments, entity specific factors such as strategy and changes in key personnel, and the Company if the carrying amount of a long-lived asset exceeds its fair value.

Income Taxes

The Company accountsoverall financial performance for income taxes under Section 740-10-30each of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities areCompany’s reporting units. If, after completing this assessment, it is determined based upon differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, we then proceed to the impairment testing methodology primarily using the income approach (discounted cash flow method).

We compare the carrying value of the goodwill, with its fair value, as determined by a combination of the market approach and income approach, its estimated discounted cash flows. If the carrying value of goodwill exceeds its fair value, the excess amount will be recognized as an impairment charge. We operate as one reporting unit.

When required, we arrive at our estimates of fair value using a discounted cash flow methodology which includes estimates of future cash flows to be generated by specifically identified assets, will notas well as selecting a discount rate to measure the present value of those anticipated cash flows. Estimating future cash flows requires significant judgment and includes making assumptions about projected growth rates, industry-specific factors, working capital requirements, weighted average cost of capital, and current and anticipated operating conditions. The use of different assumptions or estimates for future cash flows could produce different results.

Revenue Recognition

BIGtoken applies Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC Topic 606”). The core principle of ASC 606 requires that an entity recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be realized.entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASC 606 defines a five-step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, it is possible more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than required under existing U.S. GAAP including identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to each separate performance obligation.

The following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle:

Step 1: Identify the contract with the customer;
Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract;
Step 3: Determine the transaction price;
Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and
Step 5: Recognize revenue when the company satisfies a performance obligation.

Under current and prior revenue guidance, revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to the customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for those good or services.

40

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company’s employees have historically participated in SRAX’s stock-based compensation plans. Stock-based compensation expense has been allocated to the Company based on the awards and terms previously granted to the Company’s employees as well as an allocation of SRAX’s corporate and shared functional employee expenses.

We account for our stock-based compensation under ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation” using the fair value-based method. Under this method, compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. This guidance establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges it equity instruments for goods or services. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods or services that are based on the fair value of the entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments.

We use the fair value method for equity instruments granted to non-employees and use the Black-Scholes model for measuring the fair value of options. The stock based fair value compensation is determined as of the date of the grant or the date at which the performance of the services is completed (measurement date) and is recognized over the vesting periods.

Income taxes

The Company’s operations have historically been included in SRAX’s combined U.S. income tax returns. Income tax expense included in the Carve-Out Financial Statements has been calculated following the separate return method, as if the Company was a stand-alone enterprise and a separate taxpayer for the periods presented. The calculation of income taxes on a separate return basis requires considerable judgment and the use of both estimates and allocations that affect the calculation of certain tax liabilities and the determination of the recoverability of certain deferred tax assets, which arise from temporary differences between the tax and the Carve-Out Financial Statement recognition of revenues and expenses. As a result, the Company’s deferred income tax rate and deferred tax balances may differ from those in SRAX’s historical results.

41

The provision for income taxes is determined using the asset and liability approach. Deferred taxes represent the future tax consequences expected when the reported amounts of assets and liabilities are recovered or paid. Deferred taxes result from differences between the Carve-Out Financial Statement and tax bases of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect onIn evaluating the Company’s ability to recover our deferred tax assets within the jurisdiction from which they arise, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and results of a change inoperations. Any tax rates is recognizedcarryforwards reflected in the Carve-Out Financial Statements have also been determined using the separate return method. Tax carryforwards include net operating losses.

The complexity of tax regulations requires assessments of uncertainties in estimating taxes the Company will ultimately pay. The Company recognizes liabilities for anticipated tax audit uncertainties based on its estimate of whether, and the extent to which additional taxes would be due on a separate return basis. Tax liabilities are presented net of any related tax loss carryforwards.

ITEM 9A.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, consisting of our Principal Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2020. This evaluation included consideration of the controls, processes and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the periodreports 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 to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management has identified material weaknesses in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Based on that evaluation, management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2020 were ineffective.

Inherent Limitations over Internal Controls

The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

(i) pertain to the enactment date. Estimated interestmaintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and penaltiesfairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the Company’s assets;

(ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as a componentnecessary to permit preparation of interest expense or other expense, respectively.financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that the Company’s receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of the Company’s management and directors; and

 

Accounting(iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

(iv) Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

ITEM 9B.OTHER INFORMATION.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”) and Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Subtopic 340-40, Other Assets and Deferred Costs - Contracts with Customers (“ASC 340-40”), (collectively, “Topic 606”). On May 1, 2018, the Company adopted Topic 606 by applying the modified retrospective method of adoption for all contracts that were not substantially completed as of the adoption date. ASU 2014-09 requires entities to recognize revenue through the application of a five-step model, which includes identification of the contract, identification of the performance obligations, determination of the transaction price, allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations and recognition of revenue as the entity satisfies the performance obligations. The Company implemented ASU 2014-09 for the interim and annual reporting periods of 2019, which resulted in no changes to how we recognize revenue.PART IV

 

ITEM 15.EXHIBITS, FINANCIAL STATEMENT SCHEDULES.

Our revenue is generated from the sale

Documents filed as part of products consisting primarily of video and audio capture devices and accessories. We recognize revenue when control of our products is transferred to our customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive from our customers in exchange for those products. This process involves identifying the contract with a customer, determining the performance obligations in the contract, determining the contract price, allocating the contract price to the distinct performance obligations in the contract, and recognizing revenue when the performance obligations have been satisfied. We consider a performance obligation satisfied once we have transferred control of a product to the customer, meaning the customer has the ability to use and obtain the benefit of the product. We recognize revenue for satisfied performance obligations only when we determine there are no uncertainties regarding payment terms or transfer of control. Revenue from product sales is generally recognized upon shipment to the end customer, which is when control of the product is deemed to be transferred. Payment or invoicing typically occurs upon shipment and the term between invoicing and when payment is due is not significant. Revenue is recorded net of discounts and promotions and is disaggregated based on significant product line. Refer to Note 6. Segments and Geographic Data.this report:

Notes to BIGtoken Carve-Out Financial Statements

(A Business of SRAX, Inc.)

NOTE 1 – THE COMPANY, BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company recognized $9,303

Stock Based Compensation

Under ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, companies are required to measure the compensation costsBIGtoken currently operates as an operating segment of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costsSRAX, Inc. (“SRAX”), as discussed in the financial statements overBasis of Presentation, below. On October 1, 2020, SRAX entered into a share exchange agreement (the “Transaction”) with Force Protection Video Equipment Corp, a Florida corporation (“Force”). Prior to the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share-based compensation arrangements include stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. As such, compensation cost is measured onTransactions, SRAX transferred the date of grant at their fair value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periodscomponent of the option grant.BIGtoken operating segment, excluding the accounts receivable balance (as of the transfer date) that did not reside in BIGtoken, Inc. SRAX agreed to transfer 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of BIGtoken, Inc, for 90% of the issued and outstanding shares of Force and 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Force’s preferred stock.

 

In July 2019, the FASB released Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2018-09, Codification Improvements. ASU 2018-09 that affect a wide varietyBasis of Topics in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification including the guidance in paragraph 718-740-35-2, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting is unclear on whether an entity should recognize excess tax benefits (or tax deficiencies) for compensation expense that is taken on the entity’s tax return. The amendment to paragraph 718-740-35-2 in this update clarifies that an entity should recognize excess tax benefits (that is, the difference in tax benefits between the deduction for tax purposes and the compensation cost recognized for financial statement reporting) in the period in which the amount of the deduction is determined. This includes deductions that are taken on the entity’s return in a different period from when the event that gives rise to the tax deduction occurs and the uncertainty about whether (1) the entity will receive a tax deduction and (2) the amount of the tax deduction is resolved.Presentation

 

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparationCarve-Out Financial Statements of financial statements and related disclosuresBIGtoken are presented in conformityaccordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requiresof America (“U.S. GAAP”).

Throughout the periods covered by the Carve-Out Financial Statements, BIGtoken did not operate as a separate stand-alone entity but, rather as a business of SRAX. Consequently, stand-alone financial statements were not historically prepared for BIGtoken. The Carve-Out Financial Statements have been prepared in connection with the Transaction, and are derived from the accounting records of SRAX using the historical results of operations and the historical bases of assets and liabilities of BIGtoken, adjusted as necessary to conform to U.S. GAAP. The Carve-Out Financial Statements present the assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses directly attributed to BIGtoken as well as certain allocations from SRAX. Intercompany balances and transactions between BIGtoken and SRAX have been presented in Net Parent investment within the Carve-Out Balance Sheets. SRAX’s debt, the related interest expense and derivative liabilities have not been allocated and reflected within the Carve-Out Financial Statements as BIGtoken is not the legal obligor of the debt and SRAX’s borrowings were not directly attributable BIGtoken’s business. The Carve-Out Financial Statements may, therefore, not reflect the results of operations, financial position or cash flows that would have resulted had BIGtoken been operated as a separate entity.

Cash management

Historically, BIGtoken received funding to cover any shortfalls on operating cash requirements through a centralized treasury function of SRAX.

F-9

Net Parent investment

As the Carve-Out Financial Statements are derived from the historical records of SRAX, the historical equity accounts are eliminated, and net parent investment is presented in lieu of shareholders’ equity on the Carve-Out Balance Sheets. The primary components of the net parent investment are intercompany balances other than related party payables and the allocation of shared costs. Balances between BIGtoken and SRAX that were not historically cash settled are included in net parent investment. Balances between BIGtoken and SRAX that would historically be cash settled are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and accrued liabilities on the Carve-Out Balance Sheets. Net parent investment represents SRAX’s interest in the recorded assets of BIGtoken and represents the cumulative investment by SRAX in BIGtoken through the dates presented, inclusive of operating results. Upon the Reverse Merger, the Net Parent Investment has been presented as the par value and additional paid-in capital for the common stock and series A preferred stock equivalent number of shares received by SRAX from the Reverse Merger.

Cost allocation and attribution

The Carve-Out Statements of Operations include all costs directly attributable to BIGtoken, as well as costs for certain functions and services used by BIGtoken that have been allocated from SRAX. Costs were allocated to the Carve-Out Financial Statements for certain operating, selling, governance and corporate functions such as direct labor, overhead, sales and marketing, administration, legal and information technology. The costs for these services and support functions were allocated to BIGtoken using either specific identification or a pro-rata allocation using operating expenses, labor allocations and other drivers. Management believes the methodology for cost allocations is a reasonable reflection of common expenses incurred by SRAX on BIGtoken’s behalf.

Liquidity and Going Concern

BIGtoken has incurred significant losses since its inception and has not demonstrated an ability to generate sufficient revenues from the sales of its goods and services to achieved profitable operations. There can be no assurance that profitable operations will ever be achieved, or if achieved, could be sustained on a continuing basis.

These factors create substantial doubt about BIGtoken’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the Carve-Out Financial Statements are issued. The Carve-Out Financial Statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if BIGtoken is unable to continue as a going concern. Accordingly, the Carve-Out Financial Statements have been prepared on a basis that assumes BIGtoken will continue as a going concern and which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.

In making this assessment we performed a comprehensive analysis of our current circumstances including: our financial position as of December 31, 2020 our cash flow and cash usage forecasts for the period covering one-year from the issuance date of these Carve-Out Financial Statements and our current capital structure.

We anticipate raising additional capital through alternative private and public sales of our equity or debt securities, or a combination thereof. Although management believes that such capital sources will be available, there can be no assurance that financing will be available to us when needed in order to allow us to make judgments, assumptionscontinue our operations, or if available, on terms acceptable to us. As our operations have historically been funded through SRAX’s treasury program, BIGtoken has minimal cash and estimates that havecash equivalents and minimal working capital. If we do not raise sufficient capital in a significant impact ontimely manner, among other things, we may be forced to scale back our operations or cease operations all together.

Upon the results that we report in our financial statements. Someclose of our accounting policies require usShare Exchange, we obtained access to approximately $1,000,000 in cash on hand and have raised an additional $4,700,000 through a private offering of our Series B Preferred Stock.

Currently, we are dependent on SRAX for our continued support to fund our operations, without which we would need to curtail our operations.

Use of Estimates

The Carve-Out Financial Statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP and requires management of BIGtoken to make difficultestimates and subjective judgments, oftenassumptions in the preparation of these Carve-Out Financial Statements that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Carve-Out Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions.

F-10

The most significant areas that require management judgment and which are susceptible to possible change in the near term include BIGtoken’s revenue recognition, provision for bad debts, BIGtoken point redemption liability, stock-based compensation, income taxes, goodwill and intangible assets.

As of December 31, 2020, the impact of COVID-19 continues to unfold and as a result, certain estimates and assumptions require increased judgment and carry a higher degree of the needvariability and volatility that could result in material changes to makeour estimates regarding matters that are inherently uncertain. Certain of these significant accounting policies require us to make critical accounting estimates, as defined below.in future periods.

 

A criticalFair Value of Financial Instruments

The accounting estimatestandard for fair value measurements provides a framework for measuring fair value and requires disclosures regarding fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as one that is both material to the presentation of our financial statements and requires management to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments that could have a material effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Specifically, critical accounting estimates have the following attributes:

·

we are required to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time of the estimate; and

·

different estimates we could reasonably have used, or changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur, would have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

Many of our financial instruments are issued in conjunction with the issuance of debt. At the time of issuance, we allocate the proceeds received to the various financial instruments and this involves the determination of fair value. From time to time, the fair value of these financial instruments exceeds the proceeds received. When this occurs, we critically evaluate the validity of the fair value computation.

Table of Contents

Financial Instruments

The Company’s balance sheets include the following financial instruments: cash, accrued expenses, notes payable and payables to a stockholder. The carrying amounts of current assets and current liabilities approximate their fair value because of the relatively short period of time between the origination of these instruments and their expected realization. The carrying values of the notes payable and amounts due to stockholder approximates fair value based on borrowing rates currently available to the Company for instruments with similar terms and remaining maturities.

FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) topic, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received forto sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants onat the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishesdate, based on BIGtoken’s principal or, in absence of a principal, most advantageous market for the specific asset or liability.

BIGtoken uses a three-tier fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs)to classify and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). Thedisclose all assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, as well as assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis, in periods subsequent to their initial measurement. The hierarchy consistsrequires BIGtoken to use observable inputs when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs, when determining fair value. The three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjustedtiers are defined as follows:

Level 1—Observable inputs that reflect quoted market prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;

Level 2—Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly in the marketplace for identical or similar assets and liabilities; and

Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market data, which require BIGtoken to develop its own assumptions.

The determination of fair value and the assessment of a measurement’s placement within the hierarchy requires judgment. Level 3 valuations often involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity. Level 3 valuations may require the use of various cost, market, or income valuation methodologies applied to unobservable management estimates and assumptions. Management’s assumptions could vary depending on the asset or liability valued and the valuation method used. Such assumptions could include: estimates of prices, earnings, costs, actions of market participants, market factors, or the weighting of various valuation methods. BIGtoken may also engage external advisors to assist us in determining fair value, as appropriate.

Although BIGtoken believes that the recorded fair value of our financial instruments is appropriate, these fair values may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values.

BIGtoken’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, net accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, are carried at historical cost. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the carrying amounts of these instruments approximated their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. BIGtoken measures certain non-financial assets, liabilities, and equity issuances at fair value on a non-recurring basis. These non-recurring valuations include evaluating assets such as long-lived assets and goodwill for impairment; allocating value to assets in an acquired asset group; and applying accounting for business combinations.

Accounts Receivable

Credit is extended to customers based on an evaluation of their financial condition and other factors. Management periodically assesses BIGtoken’s accounts receivable and, if necessary, establishes an allowance for estimated uncollectible amounts. Accounts determined to be uncollectible are charged to operations when that determination is made. BIGtoken usually does not require collateral.

F-11

Concentration of Credit Risk, Significant Customers and Supplier Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject BIGtoken to concentration of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. Cash and cash equivalents are deposited with financial institutions within the United States. The balances maintained at these financial institutions are generally less than the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits.

As of December 31, 2020, BIGtoken had five customers with accounts receivable balances of approximately 19.2%, 16.5%, 11.9%, 11.9%, and 10.1% of total accounts receivable. At December 31, 2019, BIGtoken had three customers with accounts receivable balances of approximately 25.9%, 16.4% and 15.0%.

For the period ended December 31, 2020, BIGtoken had two customers that account for approximately 17.2% and 10.6% of total revenue. For the year ended December 31, 2019, BIGtoken had two customers that account for approximately 19.3% and 14.1% of total revenue.

PREPAID EXPENSES

Prepaid expenses are assets held by BIGtoken, which are expected to be realized and consumed within twelve months after the reporting period.

MARKETABLE SECURITIES

Shares received will be accounted for in accordance with ASC 320 – Investments – Debt and Equity Securities, as such the shares will be classified as available-for-sale securities and will be measured at each reporting period at fair value with the unrealized gain (loss) as a component of other income (expense). Upon the sale of the shares, BIGtoken will record the gain (loss) in the carve-out statement of operations as a component of other income (expense).

LONG-LIVED ASSETS

Management evaluates the recoverability of BIGtoken’s identifiable intangible assets and other long-lived assets when events or circumstances indicate a potential impairment exists. Events and circumstances considered by BIGtoken in determining whether the carrying value of identifiable intangible assets and other long-lived assets may not be recoverable include, but are not limited to: significant changes in performance relative to expected operating results; significant changes in the use of the assets; significant negative industry or economic trends; a significant decline in BIGtoken’s stock price for a sustained period of time; and changes in BIGtoken’s business strategy. In determining if impairment exists, BIGtoken estimates the undiscounted cash flows to be generated from the use and ultimate disposition of these assets. If impairment is indicated based on a comparison of the assets’ carrying values and the undiscounted cash flows, the impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. No impairments have been recorded regarding its identifiable intangible assets or liabilities (Level 1)other long-lived assets during the years ended December 31, 2020 or 2019, respectively.

Property and equipment

Property and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets of three to seven years.

Expenditures for repair and maintenance which do not materially extend the useful lives of property and equipment are charged to operations. When property or equipment is sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts with the resulting gain or loss reflected in operations. Management periodically reviews the carrying value of its property and equipment for impairment.

Intangible assets

Intangible assets consist of BIGtoken’s intellectual property of internally developed software and are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is provided for on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets of five to nine years.

F-12

Costs incurred to develop computer software for internal use are capitalized once: (1) the preliminary project stage is completed, (2) management authorizes and commits to funding a specific software project, and (3) it is probable that the project will be completed and the lowest prioritysoftware will be used to unobservable inputs (Level 3). Theperform the function intended. Costs incurred prior to meeting the qualifications are expensed as incurred. Capitalization of costs ceases when the project is substantially complete and ready for its intended use. Post-implementation costs related to the internal use computer software, are expensed as incurred. Internal use software development costs are amortized using the straight-line method over its estimated useful life which ranges up to three levelsyears. Software development costs may become impaired in situations where development efforts are abandoned due to the viability of the planned project becoming doubtful or due to technological obsolescence of the planned software product. For the years ended December 31, 2020, and 2019 there has been no impairment associated with internal use software. For the years ended December 31, 2020, and 2019, BIGtoken capitalized software development costs of $572,000 and $748,000, respectively.

During 2016, BIGtoken began capitalizing the costs of developing internal-use computer software, including directly related payroll costs. BIGtoken amortizes costs associated with its internally developed software over periods up to three years, beginning when the software is ready for its intended use.

BIGtoken capitalizes costs incurred during the application development stage of internal-use software and amortize these costs over the estimated useful life. Upgrades and enhancements are capitalized if they result in added functionality which enable the software to perform tasks it was previously incapable of performing. Software maintenance, training, data conversion, and business process reengineering costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.

Goodwill

Goodwill is comprised of the purchase price of business combinations in excess of the fair value hierarchy are described below:

·

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities

·

Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates); and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

·

Level 3 - Inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

Beneficial Conversion Features

ASC 470-20 appliesassigned at acquisition to convertible securities with beneficial conversion features that must be settled in stockthe net tangible and to those that give the issuer a choice in settling the obligation in either stockidentifiable intangible assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized. BIGtoken tests goodwill for impairment for its reporting units on an annual basis, or cash. ASC 470-20 requires that the beneficial conversion feature should be valued at the commitment date as the difference between the conversion price andwhen events occur or circumstances indicate the fair marketvalue of a reporting unit is below its carrying value. If the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that implied fair value of the common stock into whichgoodwill within the securityreporting unit is convertible, multiplied byless than its carrying value. BIGtoken performed its most recent annual goodwill impairment test as of December 31, 2020 using market data and discounted cash flow analysis. Based on this analysis, it was determined that the numberfair value exceeded the carrying value of shares into whichits reporting units. BIGtoken concluded the security is convertible. This amount is recorded as a debt discount and amortized over the lifefair value of the debt. ASC 470-20 further limitsgoodwill exceed the carrying value accordingly there were no indicators of impairment for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.

BIGtoken had historically performed its annual goodwill and impairment assessment on December 31st of each year. This aligns BIGtoken with other advertising sales companies who also generally conduct this amountannual analysis in the fourth quarter.

When evaluating the potential impairment of goodwill, management first assess a range of qualitative factors, including but not limited to, macroeconomic conditions, industry conditions, the competitive environment, changes in the market for BIGtoken’s products and services, regulatory and political developments, entity specific factors such as strategy and changes in key personnel, and the overall financial performance for each of BIGtoken’s reporting units. If, after completing this assessment, it is determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value, we then proceed to the proceeds allocated toimpairment testing methodology primarily using the convertible instrument.income approach (discounted cash flow method).

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

We have reviewed all FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) accounting pronouncements and interpretations thereof that have effectiveness dates duringcompare the periods reported and in future periods. The Company has carefully consideredcarrying value of the new pronouncements that alter previous generally accepted accounting principles and does not believe that any new or modified principles will have a material impact on the corporation’s reported financial position or operations in the near term. The applicability of any standard is subject to the formal review of our financial management and certain standards are under consideration.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The new standard modifies disclosure requirements including removing requirements to disclose the valuation process for Level 3 measurements and adding requirements to disclose the changes in unrealized gains and losses for the period included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements and the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 measurements. The new standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company does not expect adoption of ASU 2018-13 to have a material impact ongoodwill, with its financial statements or disclosures.

In July 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480), Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815). The amendments in Part I of this Update change the classification analysis of certain equity-linked financial instruments (or embedded features) with down round features. When determining whether certain financial instruments should be classified as liabilities or equity instruments, a down round feature no longer precludes equity classification when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to an entity’s own stock. The amendments also clarify existing disclosure requirements for equity-classified instruments. As a result, a freestanding equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded conversion option) no longer would be accounted for as a derivative liability at fair value, as determined by a resultcombination of the existencemarket approach and income approach, its estimated discounted cash flows. If the carrying value of a down round feature. For freestanding equity classified financial instruments,goodwill exceeds its fair value, 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 treatedexcess amount will be recognized as a dividend andan impairment charge. We operate as a reduction of income available to common shareholders in basic EPS. Convertible instruments with embedded conversion options that have down round features are now subject to the specialized guidance for contingent beneficial conversion features (in Subtopic 470-20, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options), including related EPS guidance (in Topic 260). The amendments in Part II of this Update re-characterize the indefinite deferral of certain provisions of Topic 480 that now are presented as pending content in the Codification, to a scope exception. Those amendments do not have an accounting effect. For public business entities, the amendments in Part I of this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted for all entities, including adoption in an interim period. If an entity early adopts the amendments in an interim period, any adjustments should be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The Company does not expect adoption of ASU 2017-11 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.one reporting unit.

 

In May 2017,When required, we arrive at our estimates of fair value using a discounted cash flow methodology which includes estimates of future cash flows to be generated by specifically identified assets, as well as selecting a discount rate to measure the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Scopepresent value of Modification Accounting.those anticipated cash flows. Estimating future cash flows requires significant judgment and includes making assumptions about projected growth rates, industry-specific factors, working capital requirements, weighted average cost of capital, and current and anticipated operating conditions. The amendments in this Update provide guidance about which changes to the termsuse of different assumptions or conditions of a share-based payment awards require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. The amendments in this Update are effectiveestimates for all entities for annual periods, and interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company implemented ASU 2017-09 for the interim and annual reporting periods of 2019, which resulted in no impact on its consolidated financial statements.future cash flows could produce different results.

Revenue Recognition

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”) andBIGtoken applies Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Subtopic 340-40, Other Assets and Deferred Costs -Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 340-40”), (collectively, “TopicTopic 606”). On May 1, 2018, the Company adoptedASC Topic 606 by applying the modified retrospective method of adoption for all contractsis a comprehensive revenue recognition model that were not substantially completed asrequires revenue to be recognized when control of the adoption date. ASU 2014-09promised goods or services are transferred to our customers at an amount that reflects the consideration that we expect to receive. Application of ASC Topic 606 requires entitiesBIGtoken to recognize revenue through the applicationuse more judgment and make more estimates than under former guidance. Application of ASC Topic 606 requires a five-step model which includes identificationapplicable to all product offerings revenue streams as follows:

Identification of the contract, identificationor contracts, with a customer

A contract with a customer exists when (i) we enter into an enforceable contract with a customer that defines each party’s rights regarding the goods or services to be transferred and identifies the payment terms related to these goods or services, (ii) the contract has commercial substance and, (iii) we determine that collection of substantially all consideration for goods or services that are transferred is probable based on the customer’s intent and ability to pay the promised consideration.

We apply judgment in determining the customer’s ability and intention to pay, which is based on a variety of factors including the customer’s historical payment experience or, in the case of a new customer, published credit or financial information pertaining to the customer.

Identification of the performance obligations determinationin the contract

Performance obligations promised in a contract are identified based on the goods or services that will be transferred to the customer that are both capable of being distinct, whereby the customer can benefit from the goods or service either on its own or together with other resources that are readily available from third parties or from us, and are distinct in the context of the contract, whereby the transfer of the goods or services is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract.

When a contract includes multiple promised goods or services, we apply judgment to determine whether the promised goods or services are capable of being distinct and are distinct within the context of the contract. If these criteria are not met, the promised goods or services are accounted for as a combined performance obligation.

Determination of the transaction price allocation

The transaction price is determined based on the consideration to which we will be entitled to receive in exchange for transferring goods or services to our customer. We estimate any variable consideration included in the transaction price using the expected value method that requires the use of significant estimates for discounts, cancellation periods, refunds and returns. Variable consideration is described in detail below.

Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

If the contract contains a single performance obligation, the entire transaction price is allocated to the single performance obligation. Contracts that contain multiple performance obligations require an allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation based on a relative Stand-Alone Selling Price (“SSP,”) basis. We determine SSP based on the price at which the performance obligation would be sold separately. If the SSP is not observable, we estimate the SSP based on available information, including market conditions and recognitionany applicable internally approved pricing guidelines.

F-14

Recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation

We recognize revenue at the point in time that the related performance obligation is satisfied by transferring the promised goods or services to our customer.

Principal versus Agent Considerations

When another party is involved in providing goods or services to our customer, we apply the principal versus agent guidance in ASC Topic 606 to determine if we are the principal or an agent to the transaction. When we control the specified goods or services before they are transferred to our customer, we report revenue gross, as principal. If we do not control the goods or services before they are transferred to our customer, revenue is reported net of the fees paid to the other party, as agent. Our evaluation to determine if we control the goods or services within ASC Topic 606 includes the following indicators:

We are primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the specified good or service.

When we are primarily responsible for providing the goods and services, such as when the other party is acting on our behalf, we have indication that we are the principal to the transaction. We consider if we may terminate our relationship with the other party at any time without penalty or without permission from our customer.

We have risk before the specified good or service have been transferred to a customer or after transfer of control to the customer.

We may commit to obtaining the services of another party with or without an existing contract with our customer. In these situations, we have risk of loss as principal for any amount due to the other party regardless of the amount(s) we earn as revenue from our customer.

The entity satisfieshas discretion in establishing the price for the specified good or service.

We have discretion in establishing the price our customer pays for the specified goods or services.

Contract Liabilities

Contract liabilities consist of customer advance payments and billings in excess of revenue recognized. We may receive payments from our customers in advance of completing our performance obligations. We record contract liabilities equal to the amount of payments received in excess of revenue recognized, including payments that are refundable if the customer cancels the contract according to the contract terms. Contract liabilities have been low historically, and recorded as current liabilities on our Carve-Out Financial Statements when the time to fulfill the performance obligations. The Company implemented ASU 2014-09 forobligations under terms of our contracts is less than one year. We have no Long-term contract liabilities which would represent the interim and annual reporting periodsamount of 2019, which resultedpayments received in no changesexcess of revenue earned, including those that are refundable, when the time to how we recognize revenue.fulfill the performance obligation is greater than one year.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), Conforming Amendments Related to Leases. This ASU amends the codification regarding leases in order to increase transparencyPractical Expedients and comparability. The ASU requires companies to recognize lease assets and liabilities on the statement of condition and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. A lessee would recognize a liability to make lease payments and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the leased asset for the lease term. The new lease guidance was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and had a material effect on the Company’s financial statements as noted further in Note 5. The Company early adopted this standard during fiscal year 2018.Exemptions

 

The Company reviews new accounting standardsWe have elected certain practical expedients and policy elections as issued. Although some of these accounting standards issued or effective after the end of the Company’s previous fiscal year may be applicable to the Company, the Company has not identified any standards that it believes merit further discussion. The Company believes that none of the new standards will have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements.permitted under ASC Topic 606 as follows:

 

 
27We adopted the practical expedient related to not adjusting the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component if the period between transfer of product and customer payment is expected to be less than one year at the time of contract inception.

We made the accounting policy election to not assess promised goods or services as performance obligations if they are immaterial in the context of the contract with the customer.
TableWe made the accounting policy election to exclude any sales and similar taxes from the transaction price; and
We adopted the practical expedient not to disclose the value of Contentsunsatisfied performance obligations for contracts with an original expected length of one year or less.

NOTE 3 – CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTESBIGtoken’s employees have historically participated in SRAX’s stock-based compensation plans. Stock-based compensation expense has been allocated to BIGtoken based on the awards and terms previously granted to BIGtoken’s employees as well as an allocation of SRAX’s corporate and shared functional employee expenses.

 

The Company determined that each convertible promissory note conversion feature is indexed to the Company’s stock, which is an input to a fair value measurement of a fixed-for-fixed option on equity shares. Thus, the conversion feature of the notes meets the scope exception under FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 815-40-15-7 and treatmentWe account for our stock-based compensation under ASC 470-20718 “CompensationDebt with Conversion and Other OptionsStock Compensation” using the fair value-based method. Under this method, compensation cost is appropriate.

As of April 30, 2019, seven of the Company’s convertible promissory notes remain outstanding beyond their respective maturity dates; triggering an event of technical default under the respective agreements. Consequently, the Company is accruing interest on these notes at their respective default rates and has recorded default penalties of $63,788 in the aggregate. As a result of being in default on these notes, the Holders could, at their sole discretion, call these Notes in their entirety, including all associated penalties provided for under the respective agreements.

As of April 30, 2019, the Company owed $439,465 in principal and $147,456 in accrued interest on its remaining outstanding convertible promissory notes. As of April 30, 2018, the Company owed $480,623 in principal (before a debt discount of $21,225) and $62,281in accrued interest (included in accounts payable and accrued expenses) on its remaining outstanding convertible promissory notes.

RDW Capital, LLC

The RDW Notes have identical terms and conditions including convertibility into common stockmeasured at the holder’s option, at a price for each share of common stock equal to 60% of the lowest traded price during the twenty (20) trading days immediately preceding the applicable conversion, and subject to anti-dilution and market adjustments set forth in the Agreement. The Notes mature in six months and bear an interest rate of 8%. In no event shall RDW effect a conversion if such conversion results in RDW beneficially owning in excess of 4.99% of the outstanding common stock of the Company. The Notes and accrued interest may be prepaid in whole or in part at any time with ten (10) days written notice to the holder for the sum of the outstanding principal and interest multiplied by one hundred and thirty percent (130%). Any principal and interest unpaid when due shall bear interest at 24% and RDW may accelerate the outstanding principal, plus accrued and unpaid interest, and other amounts owing through thegrant date of acceleration and the amount due will be one hundred thirty percent (130%) of the outstanding principal amount of the Note and accrued and unpaid interest. In the event the Company defaultsbased on the accelerated balance, and at the request of the Holder, the Company must pay one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the outstanding balance plus accrued interest and default interest. Acceleration by the Holder requires notice to the Company and to date, the Company has not received a notice of acceleration. The Company is required to reserve three (3) times the number of shares necessary for the issuance of common stock upon conversion; however, as of April 30, 2019, RDW Capital agreed to forego the reserve requirement called for under the Note.

Note 3 - On March 10, 2016, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement and amendments thereto, with RDW Capital, LLC, pursuant to which the Company received $210,000 in financing through the execution of a Convertible Promissory Note. The Company received proceeds of $180,000 after payment of $30,000 in legal fees.

The principal was discounted for the OID, due diligence fees, stock issued to an advisor in connection with the note totaling $18,000, and the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature. The calculated intrinsic value was $227,391. As this amount resulted in a total debt discount that exceeded the note principal, the discount recorded for the beneficial conversion feature was limited to the principal amount of the note.

The Note became due and payable on September 10, 2016 and the Company is in default of its obligations under the Note and the default interest rate of 24% per annum is being accrued beginning on September 11, 2016.

During the years ended April 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, the Company issued no common shares for payment on the note.

As of April 30, 2019, and April 30, 2018, respectively, the Company owed $792 and $792 in principle and $0 and $0 in accrued interest.

As of April 30, 2019, the equivalent number of common shares the Company would be required to issue to satisfy the Note is 13,196,334.

Note 4 - On May 13, 2016, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with RDW Capital, LLC pursuant to which the Company received $105,000 in financing through the execution of a Convertible Promissory Note (RDW Note 4). The Company received proceeds of $82,500 after payment of a $5,000 OID and $17,500 of legal and due diligence fees.

Accordingly, the new lease guidance became effective for the Company on May 1, 2017, which is the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements in which the Company first applies the new lease accounting guidance.

During fiscal year 2018, the Company determined the ROU Asset and lease liability to be $51,063 which compares to the total, undiscounted cash flow payments of the initial three-year term of $61,200. As of April 30, 2018, since the right of use asset and lease liability were the same, there was not adjustment to retained earnings. The company determined that there was no discount rate implicit in the lease. Thus, the Company used its incremental borrowing rate of 12% to discount the lease payments in the determination of the ROU assetrecoverability of certain deferred tax assets, which arise from temporary differences between the tax and lease liability.

On March 21, 2015, the Company entered intoCarve-Out Financial Statement recognition of revenues and expenses. As a lease of office space at 130 Iowa Lane, Suite 102, Carry, North Carolina 27511. During January, 2018, the Company movedresult, BIGtoken’s deferred income tax rate and this lease was terminated with no further obligations.deferred tax balances may differ from those in SRAX’s historical results.

NOTE 6 - SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC DATA

Contract assets represent accrued revenues that have not yet been billed to the customers due to certain contractual terms other than the passage of time. For the twelve months ended April 30, 2019, the Company did not have any contract assets. Receivables from customers are included in current assets on the consolidated balance sheet. Due to the nature of our sales transactions, we have elected the following practical expedients: (i) Shipping and handling costs are treated as fulfillment costs. Accordingly, shipping and handling costs are classified as a component of Cost of goods sold while amounts billed to customers are classified as a component of Net Sales.

NOTE 7 – INCOME TAXES

The Company accountsprovision for income taxes underis determined using the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). Under ASC 740, deferredasset and liability approach. Deferred taxes represent the future tax consequences expected when the reported amounts of assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable torecovered or paid. Deferred taxes result from differences between the financial statement carrying amountsCarve-Out Financial Statement and tax bases of existingBIGtoken’s assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. In evaluating BIGtoken’s ability to recover our deferred tax assets within the jurisdiction from which they arise, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and results of operations. Any tax carryforwards reflected in the Carve-Out Financial Statements have also been determined using the separate return method. Tax carryforwards include net operating losses.

 

The complexity of tax regulations requires assessments of uncertainties in estimating taxes BIGtoken will ultimately pay. BIGtoken recognizes liabilities for anticipated tax audit uncertainties based on its estimate of whether, and the extent to which additional taxes would be due on a separate return basis. Tax Cutsliabilities are presented net of any related tax loss carryforwards.

F-16

Earnings Per Share

We use ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share” for calculating the basic and Jobs Actdiluted earnings (loss) per share. We compute basic earnings (loss) per share by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of 2017 changedcommon shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed based on the top corporate federal tax rate from 35% to one rateweighted average number of 21%. This rate will be effective for corporations whose tax year begins after January 1, 2018, and it is a permanent change. Under ASC 740,shares of common stock plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method. Dilutive potential common shares include outstanding stock options and warrants and stock awards. For periods with a net loss, basic and diluted loss per share are the same, in that any potential common stock equivalents would have the effect of being anti-dilutive in the computation of net loss per share.

Recent Accounting Updates Not Yet Effective

BIGtoken considers the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board. ASU’s not listed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or expected to have minimal impact on BIGtoken’s consolidated financial results.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 (with amendments issued in 2018), which changes the accounting for leases and requires expanded disclosures about leasing activities. This new guidance also requires lessees to recognize a ROU asset and a lease liability at the commencement date for all leases with terms greater than twelve months. Accounting by lessors is largely unchanged. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2018. We adopted ASU 2016-02 on January 1, 2019, as BIGtoken is not an obligator on any lease agreements this standard did not have a material impact on our Carve-Out Financials Statements.

In September 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” This guidance updates existing guidance for measuring and recording credit losses on financial assets measured at amortized cost by replacing the “incurred loss” model with an “expected loss” model. Accordingly, these financial assets will be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 did not have a material impact on our Carve-Out Financials Statements.

In September 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, “Improvements to Non-employee Share-Based Payment Accounting.” This guidance expands the scope of Topic 718 “Compensation - Stock Compensation” to include share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from non-employees, but excludes awards granted in conjunction with selling goods or services to a customer as part of a contract accounted for under ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.” The adoption of ASU 2018-07 did not have a material impact on our Carve-Out Financials Statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, “Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract,” which amends ASC 350-40, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software.” The ASU aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software and requires the capitalized implementation costs to be expensed over the term of the hosting arrangement. The accounting for the service element of a hosting arrangement that is a service contract is not affected. ASU 2018-15 is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of ASU 2018-15, effective January 1, 2019, did not have a material impact on our Carve-Out Financials Statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.” This guidance simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Instead, if the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss will be recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. ASU 2017-04 is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 31, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. We adopted ASU 2017-04 and it did not have a material impact on our Carve-Out Financials Statements.

Recent Accounting Updates Not Yet Effective

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” This guidance, among other provisions, eliminates certain exceptions to existing guidance related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. This guidance also requires an entity to reflect the effect of an enacted change in tax laws or rates in its effective income tax rate in the first interim period that includes the enactment date of the new legislation, aligning the timing of recognition of the effects from enacted tax law changes on the effective income tax rate with the effects on deferred income tax assets and liabilities is recognized inliabilities. Under existing guidance, an entity recognizes the effects of the enacted tax law change on the effective income tax rate in the period that includes the enactment date. effective date of the tax law. ASU 2019-12 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this guidance.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, “Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity”, to reduce complexity in applying GAAP to certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. ASU 2020-06 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2023, with early adoption permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this guidance.

During the year ended April 30, 2018,December 31, 2019 BIGtoken instituted a policy that allows BIGtoken users to redeem outstanding BIGtoken points for cash if their account and point balances meet certain criteria. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, BIGtoken has estimated the Company issued 4,000,000 sharesfuture liability for point redemptions to be $452,000 and $445,000, respectively, recorded as other current liabilities. BIGtoken considered the total number of points outstanding, the conversion rate in which points are redeemable for cash, and each user’s redemption eligibility.

PursuantNOTE 7 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Other Commitments

In the ordinary course of business, BIGtoken may provide indemnifications of varying scope and terms to customers, vendors, lessors, business partners, and other parties with respect to certain matters, including, but not limited to, losses arising out of BIGtoken’s breach of such agreements, services to be provided by BIGtoken, or from intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties. In addition, BIGtoken has entered indemnification agreements with its directors and certain of its officers and employees that will require BIGtoken to, among other things, indemnify them against certain liabilities that may arise due to their status or service as directors, officers or employees. BIGtoken has also agreed to indemnify certain former officers, directors and employees of acquired companies in connection with the acquisition of such companies. BIGtoken maintains director and officer insurance, which may cover certain liabilities arising from its obligation to indemnify its directors and certain of its officers and employees, and former officers, directors and employees of acquired companies, in certain circumstances.

It is not possible to determine the maximum potential amount of exposure under these indemnification agreements due to the limited history of prior indemnification claims and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each agreement. Such indemnification agreements may not be subject to maximum loss clauses.

Employment Agreementagreements

BIGtoken has entered into employment agreements with key employees. These agreements may include provisions for base salary, guaranteed and discretionary bonuses and option grants. The agreements may contain severance provisions if the employees are terminated without cause, as defined in the agreements.

Litigation

From time to time, BIGtoken may become subject to legal proceedings, claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. In addition, BIGtoken may receive letters alleging infringement of patent or other intellectual property rights. BIGtoken is not currently a party to any material legal proceedings, nor is BIGtoken aware of any pending or threatened litigation that would have a material adverse effect on BIGtoken’s business, operating results, cash flows or financial condition should such litigation be resolved unfavorably.

F-20

Business Interruption

BIGtoken may be impacted by public health crises beyond its control. This could disrupt its operations and negatively impact sales of its products. BIGtoken’s customer and, suppliers may experience similar disruption. In December 2019, a novel strain of the Coronavirus, COVID-19, was reported to have surfaced in Wuhan, China, which has evolved into a pandemic. This situation and preventative or protective actions that governments have taken to counter the effects of the pandemic have resulted in a period of business disruption, including delays in shipments of products and raw materials. COVID-19 has spread to over 175 countries, including the United States, and efforts to contain the spread of COVID-19 have intensified. To the extent the impact of COVID-19 continues or worsens, the demand for BIGtoken’s products may be negatively impacted. COVID-19 has also impacted BIGtoken’s sales efforts as its ability to make sales calls is constrained. BIGtoken’s ability to promote sales through promotional activities has also been constrained. Trade shows and sales conferences, major events used to introduce and sell BIGtoken’s products, have been postponed indefinitely. The length and severity of the pandemic could also affect BIGtoken’s regular sales, which could in turn result in reduced sales and a lower gross margin.

NOTE 8 – STOCK OPTIONS AND AWARDS

BIGtoken’s employees have historically participated in SRAX’s various stock-based plans, which are described below. All references to shares in the tables below refer to shares of SRAX’s common stock and all references to stock prices in the tables below refer to the price of a share of SRAX’s common stock.

In January 2012, SRAX’s board of directors and stockholders authorized the 2012 Equity Compensation Plan, which SRAX refer to as the 2012 Plan, covering 600,000 shares of SRAX’s Class A common stock. On November 5, 2014, SRAX’s board of directors approved the adoption of SRAX 2014 Equity Compensation Plan (the “2014 Plan”) and reserved 600,000 shares of SRAX’s Class A common stock for grants under this plan.

On February 23, 2016, SRAX’s board of directors approved the adoption of SRAX 2016 Equity Compensation Plan (the “2016 Plan”) and reserved 600,000 shares of SRAX’s Class A common stock for grants under this plan.

The purpose of the 2012, 2014 and 2016 Plans is to attract and retain the best available personnel for positions of substantial responsibility, to provide additional incentive to SRAX’s employees, directors and consultants and to promote the success of SRAX’s business. The 2012, 2014 and 2016 Plans are administered by SRAX’s board of directors. Plan options may either be:

incentive stock options (ISOs)
non-qualified options (NSOs),
awards of our common stock,
stock appreciation rights (SARs),
restricted stock units (RSUs),
performance units,
performance shares, and
other stock-based awards.

Any option granted under the 2012, 2014 and 2016 Plans must provide for an exercise price of not less than 100% of the fair market value of the underlying shares on the date of grant, but the exercise price of any ISO granted to an eligible employee owning more than 10% of SRAX’s outstanding common stock must not be less than 110% of fair market value on the date of the grant. The plans further provide that with respect to ISOs the aggregate fair market value of the common stock underlying the options which are exercisable by any option holder during any calendar year cannot exceed $100,000. The exercise price of any NSO granted under the 2012, 2014 or 2016 Plans is determined by SRAX’s board of directors at the time of grant but must be at least equal to fair market value on the date of grant. The term of each plan option and the manner in which it may be exercised is determined by SRAX’s board of directors or SRAX’s compensation committee, provided that no option may be exercisable more than 10 years after the date of its grant and, in the case of an incentive option granted to an eligible employee owning more than 10% of the common stock, no more than five years after the date of the grant. The terms of grants of any other type of award under the 2012, 2014 or 2016 Plans is determined by SRAX’s board of directors at the time of grant. Subject to the limitation on the aggregate number of shares issuable under the plans, there is no maximum or minimum number of shares as to which a stock grant or plan option may be granted to any person.

NOTE 10 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On October 3, 2019, the Company and Adar Bays, LLC agreed to enter into a Payment Agreement to settle the amounts outstanding on two previously outstanding Notes, whereby the Company would repay the debt in three installments; $37,000 by October 4, 2019, $18,750 by October 23, 2019, and $18,750 by November 23, 2019. The Company subsequently met all the terms of the final settlement.

On October 11, 2019, the Company entered into a secured promissory note with RDW Capital, LLC in the amount of $27,500. The Note matures on April 11, 2020 and bears an interest rate of 5%. Interest payments are due and payable on the 90-day anniversary of the execution of the note, and with the principal payment of the note on or before the maturity date. In security for the note, the Company’s President has pledged the Preferred Shares of the Company registered on the books of the Company in his or designees name and shall be the sole recourse the Note Holder has in relation to repayment of the Note. The Company subsequently satisfied the balance of the Note by the due date.

Pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement originally dated August 8, 2017, the Company entered into additional convertible promissory notes with RDW Capital, LLC for aggregate proceeds of $208,256. The Notes mature six months from the respective dates of issuance, bear interest at 8%, and are convertible into common stock of the Company at the Holder’s option.

In the event the Company defaults on the accelerated balance, and at the request of the Holder, the Company must pay one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the outstanding balance plus accrued interest and default interest. The Company is required to reserve three (3) times the number of shares necessary for the issuance of common stock upon conversion.

ITEM 9:CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING ANDFINANCIALDISCLOSURE

On October 14, 2019, the Registrant was informed by Soles, Heyn & Company, LLP (“SH”) that the firm was resigning and thus terminating its services as the Registrant’s independent registered public accounting firm effective October 14, 2019. On October 16, 2019, the Registrant retained Assurance Dimensions as its principal independent accountants. The decision to retain Assurance Dimensions as the Registrant’s principal independent accountants was approved by the Registrant’s Board of Directors.

ITEM 9A: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of April 30, 2019, under the direction of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a — 15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Based on the evaluation of these controls and procedures required by paragraph (b) of Sec. 240.13a-15 or 240.15d-15 the disclosure controls and procedures have been found to be ineffective.

The Company maintains a set of disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our reports filed under the securities Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that this information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b) Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. Furthermore, smaller reporting companies face additional limitations. Smaller reporting companies employ fewer individuals and find it difficult to properly segregate duties. Smaller reporting companies tend to utilize general accounting software packages that lack a rigorous set of software controls.

41

Table of Contents

Our management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of April 30, 2019. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control — Integrated Framework. Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that as of the end of the fiscal year covered by this AnnualCurrent Report on Form 10-K that our internal control over financial reporting has not been effective due to the following material weaknesses:

(1) Lack of segregation of duties. Management has found it necessary to limit the Company’s administrative staffing in order to conserve cash, until the Company’s level of business activity increases. As a result, there is limited segregation of duties amongst the employees, and the Company has identified this as a material weakness in the Company’s internal controls. The Company intends to remedy this material weakness by hiring additional employees and reallocating duties, including responsibilities for financial reporting, among the employees as soon as there are sufficient resources available. However, until such time, this material weakness will continue to exist. Despite the limited number of employees and limited segregation of duties, management believes that the Company is capable of following its disclosure controls and procedures effectively.

(2) Lack of in-house US GAAP Expertise. Our current accounting personnel perform adequately in the basic accounting and recordkeeping function. However, our operations and business practices include complex technical accounting issues that are outside the routine basic functions. These technical accounting issues are complex and require significant expertise to ensure that the accounting and reporting are accurate and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

 (3) Lack of formal documentation. We maintain very informal controls over the billing and invoicing procedures. As a result, invoicing delays have occurred. This is a significant material weakness in the billing cycle because this will cause inaccuracies in the ultimate completion of the sale, which is the collection of cash. Also, sales cutoff complications could arise due to these delays in billing. Bills should be sent to customers as soon as possible to expedite payment and otherwise keep the accounting system current.

We frequently are unable to obtain appropriate shipping documentation from the shipping department. Better controls need to be placed over these documents because they may be required for such things as supporting claims that deliveries to customers have been made and the goods were received in satisfactory condition.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, which permanently exempts non-accelerated filers (generally issuers with a public float under $75 million) from complying with Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

(c) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 9B:OTHER INFORMATION

EXPLANATORY NOTE

We are filing this Amendment No.1 on Form 10-K/A to our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2019,8-K filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on July 24,October 5, 2020.

Board Role in Risk Oversight

Risk is inherent in every business, and how well a business manages risk can ultimately determine its success. We face a number of risks, including strategic risks, enterprise risks, financial risks, and regulatory risks. While our management is responsible for day to day management of various risks we face, the Board, as a whole, is responsible for evaluating our exposure to risk and to satisfy itself that the risk management processes designed and implemented by management are adequate and functioning as designed. The Board reviews and discusses policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management. The Board also has oversight responsibility with respect to the integrity of the Company’s financial reporting process and systems of internal control regarding finance and accounting, as well as its financial statements.

Audit Committee

The Board does not currently have a standing Audit Committee. The full Board performs the principal functions of the Audit Committee. The full Board monitors our financial reporting process and internal control system and reviews and appraises the audit efforts of our independent accountants.

Compensation Committee

The Board does not currently have a standing Compensation Committee. The full Board establishes our overall compensation policies and reviews recommendations submitted by our management.

Nominating Committee

The Board does not currently have a standing Nominating Committee. We do not maintain a policy for considering nominees. Our Bylaws provides that the number of Directors shall be fixed from time to time by the Board, but in no event shall be less than the minimum required by law. The Board of Directors shall be large enough to maintain our required expertise but not too large to function efficiently. Director nominees are recommended, reviewed and approved by the entire Board. The Board believes that this process is appropriate due to the relatively small number of directors on the Board and the opportunity to benefit from a variety of opinions and perspectives in determining director nominees by involving the full Board.

While the Board is solely responsible for the selection and nomination of directors, the Board may consider nominees recommended by stockholders as it deems appropriate. The Board evaluates each potential nominee in the same manner regardless of the source of the potential nominee’s recommendation. Although we do not have a policy regarding diversity, the Board does take into consideration the value of diversity among Board members in background, experience, education and perspective in considering potential nominees for recommendation to the Board for selection. Stockholders who wish to recommend a nominee should send nominations to our President, Paul Feldman, 1600 Olive Chapel Rd., Apex, NC 27502, that includes all information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for the election of directors. The recommendation must be accompanied by a written consent of the individual to stand for election if nominated by the Board and to serve if elected.

Compensation Consultants

We have not historically relied upon the advice of compensation consultants in determining Named Executive Officer compensation. Instead, the full Board reviews compensation levels and makes adjustments based on their personal knowledge of competition in the market place, publicly available information and informal surveys of human resource professionals.
