Distribution Method
We use an affiliate model to sell itsour product subscriptions. Anyone with an interest can participate in our bonus plan, thatwhich rewards them for selling product subscriptions. We believe this component of our offering is extremely powerful as it provides:
Competition
We face competition for each of itsour product categories, but doesdo not have a similar competitor with the full suite of services offered. Each of the financial education products, alerts, tools, and newsletters face competition from similar product companies such as TheStreet.com, The Motley Fool, Jim Cramer, anzzd similar subscription basedand like subscription-based financial research services. The personal money management education and tools face competition from free mobile apps designed for the same purpose although Investview’sour personal money management does not advertise or entice the user to refinance or secure new loans and is a pure management tool that serves the individual and not the advertiser. The company’sOur tax management tools and education have limited competition, and we have deployed Deductr Pro as our tool of choice. Unique to our company is not the individual product but the combined suite of products for one monthly subscription price, cancellable at any time by the user and distributed exclusively by the active members through the optional bonus plan for those who choose to sell the service to others.
We believe our competitive advantages include:
● | a generous bonus program for independent affiliates; | |
● | a management team with extensive experience in financial education and market strategy research/technology; | |
● | a young and motivated distributor base; | |
● | a large demographic that services all genders, races, religions, and nationalities; and | |
● | a delivery platform enabling us to launch new products quickly and efficiently worldwide. |
Our competitive weaknesses include:
Intellectual Property
Our success is predicated on the adoption of new and innovative technology, education, and research along with constantly improving convenience tools. The delivery of alerts and financial information through our platform provides various levels of automation that is programmed and designed by the companyus exclusively for our products and modified to enable the individual to initiate action on alerts they desire. We own the intellectual property for many of our products strategies and platform delivery mechanisms while we make other products available through licensed arrangements. In this way, we can continually offer a full suite of “best of breed” services to ensure our members are receiving the most value and leading-edge programs for their monthly subscription.
Expansion
We are in the process of expanding the business internationally. International planning and re-structuringrestructuring is taking place as a result of the recent name change to Kuvera and will be rolled out in the later part of 2018.Kuvera. Our affiliated entity, WG LATAM S.A.S., which has been re-establishedreestablished to Kuvera LATAM S.A.S,S.A.S., distributes the Company’stour products and services in Colombia and surrounding Latin American countries. International operations can be impacted by international regulations and economic conditions, although all are continuously monitored.
Government Regulation
We have historically positioned the Companycompany as a knowledge provider and educator whichthat seeks to augment a user’s informed decision-making process, rather than to act as a conductor of investment decisions or a representative of investment services. As such, most of our activities do not fall within the scope of securities industry regulation. We do not provide securities brokerage or investment advisory services. OurMost of our products and services also do not require that any representative distributing theour services of Investview conduct themselves as an investment advisor or broker. However, our subsidiary S.A.F.E. Management, LLC, recently received its registration and disclosure approval from the National Futures Association. S.A.F.E. Management, LLC is now a New Jersey State Registered Investment Adviser (“RIA”), Commodities Trading Advisor (“CTA”), and Commodity Pool Operator registered with the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”), and is approved by the CFTC for over the counter FOREX advisory services. As a New Jersey-registered RIA, we are required to comply with New Jersey’s laws and regulations governing the activities of investment advisers and the fees they can charge, as well as certain provisions of the Investment Adviser Act of 1940. As a CFTC registered CTA, Commodity Pool Operator, and FOREX adviser, we are required to comply with federal law and CFTC rules regulating those activities.
We have established these registrations and the advisory structure to offer automated trade execution, which is managed by S.A.F.E. Management, LLC, in fact encourage all representativesits capacity as an RIA, for equities and usersequity options and in its capacity as a CTA for commodities, futures, and OTC Forex. In addition, SAFE provides traditional advisory services for clients who do not wish to trade for themselves. Automation of trades is only available through S.A.F.E. Management. No additional approvals are required for any of our information servicescurrent business activities. The cost of maintaining this additional regulated entity could have a material adverse effect on our business and could subject us to seek unrelated investment professionals for securities related activities.
We are subject to government regulation in connection with securities laws and regulations applicable to all publicly-ownedpublicly owned companies as well as laws and regulations applicable to businesses generally. We are also increasingly subject to governmentgovernmental regulation and legislation specifically targeting Internet companies, such as privacy regulations adopted at the local, state, national and international levels and taxes levied at the state level. Due to the increasing popularity and use of the Internet,internet, enforcement of existing laws, such as consumer protection regulations, in connection with Web-basedweb-based activities has become more aggressive, and it is expected that new laws and regulations will continue to be enacted at the local, state, national, and international levels. Such new legislation, alone or combined with increasingly aggressive enforcement of existing laws, could inhibit the growth in use of the Internet and decrease the acceptance of the Internet as a communications and commercial medium, which could in turn decrease the demand for our services or otherwise have a material adverse effect on our future operating performance and business.

Investors should carefully consider the following material risk factors as well as all other information set forth or referred to in this report before purchasing shares of our common stock. Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. The Company believesWe believe all material risk factors have been presented below. If any of the following events or outcomes actually occurs, our business operating results and financial condition would likely suffer. As a result, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and youinvestors may lose all or part of the money you paid to purchase our common stock.
Risks Related to our Business Operations
We have a limited operating history and, therefore, there is an elevated risk of potential business failure unless we can overcome the various obstacles inherent to an early stage business.
We have only limited prior business operations. Because of our limited operating history, youinvestors may not have adequate information on which youthey can base an evaluation of our business and prospects. Investors should be aware of the difficulties, delays, and expenses normally encountered by an enterprise in its early stage, many of which are beyond our control, including unanticipated research and development expenses, employment costs, and administrative expenses. We cannot assure our investors that our proposed business plans as described herein will materialize or prove successful, or that we will be able to finalize development of our products or operate profitably.
We have incurred substantial operating losses since inception (August 1, 2005), and we may never achieve profitability.
From our inception on August 1, 2005, through March 31, 2018,2019, we have incurred cumulative losses of $20,067,403,$25,096,983, recorded net losses from operations of $14,913,016$5,011,036 for the year ended March 31, 2018,2019, and our cash balance on March 31, 20182019, was $1,490,686. There can be no assurance$133,644. Accordingly, we cannot assure that we will achieve profitability in the immediate future or at all.
Our independent auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
In their audit opinion issued in connection with our consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 20182019, and our related consolidated statements of operations, deficiency in stockholders’ equity,deficit, and cash flows for the year ended March 31, 2018,2019, our auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern given our recurring net losses, negative cash flows from operations, and the limited amount of funds on our balance sheet. We have prepared our consolidated financial statements on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in existence. This could make it more difficult to raise capital in the future.
We may not be able to manage our growth effectively, which could slow or prevent our ability to achieve profitability.
The ability to manage and operate our business as we execute our development and growth strategy will require effective planning. Significant rapid growth could strain our internal resources and delay or prevent our efforts to achieve profitability. We expect that our efforts to grow will place a significant strain on our personnel, management systems, infrastructure, and other resources. Our ability to manage future growth effectively will also require us to successfully attract, train, motivate, retain and manage new employees and continue to update and improve our operational, financial and management controls and procedures. If we do not manage our growth effectively, slower growth is likely to occur and thereby slowing or negating our ability to achieve and sustain profitability.
We may not be able to fully protect our proprietary rights and we may infringe the proprietary rights of others, which could result in costly litigation.
Our future success depends on our ability to protect and preserve the proprietary rights related to our products. We cannot assure you that we will be able to prevent third parties from using our intellectual property rights and technology without our authorization. The CompanyWe also reliesrely on trade secrets, common law trademark rights, and trademark registrations, as well as confidentiality and work for hire, development, assignment, and license agreements with employees, consultants, third partythird-party developers, licensees, and customers. Our protective measures for these intangible assets afford only limited protection and may be flawed or inadequate.
Policing unauthorized use of our technology is difficult and some foreign laws do not provide the same level of protection as U.S. laws. Litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce our intellectual property rights, to protect our trade secrets or patents that we may obtain, or to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others. Such litigation could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and have a material adverse effect on our future operating results.
In recent years, there has been significant litigation in the United States involving patents and other intellectual property rights. In particular, there has been an increase in the filing of suits alleging infringement of intellectual property rights, which pressure defendants into entering settlement arrangements quickly to dispose of such suits, regardless of their merits. Other companies or individuals may allege that we infringe on their intellectual property rights. Litigation, particularly in the area of intellectual property rights, is costly and the outcome is inherently uncertain. In the event of an adverse result, we could be liable for substantial damages and we may be forced to discontinue our use of the subject matter in question or obtain a license to use those rights or develop non-infringing alternatives.
Our business could be negatively affected by any adverse economic developments in the securities markets and/or the economy in general.
We depend on the interest of individuals in obtaining financial information and securities trading strategies to assist them in making their own investment decisions. Significant downturns in the securities markets or in general economic and political conditions may cause individuals to be reluctant to make their own investment decisions and thus decrease the demand for our products.
We may encounter risks relating to security or other system disruptions and failures that could reduce the attractiveness of itsour sites and that could harm itsour business.
Although the Company haswe have implemented various security mechanisms, itsour business is vulnerable to computer viruses, physical or electronic break-ins, and similar disruptions, which could lead to interruptions, delays, or loss of data. For instance, because a portion of our revenue is based on individuals using credit cards to purchase subscriptions over the Internet and a portion from advertisers that seek to encourage people to use the Internet to purchase goods or services, our business could be adversely affected by these break-ins or disruptions. Additionally, itsour operations depend on itsour ability to protect systems against damage from fire, earthquakes, power loss, telecommunications failure, and other events beyond the Company’sour control. Moreover, the Company’sour website may experience slower response times or other problems for a variety of reasons, including hardware and communication line capacity restraints, software failures, or during significant increases in traffic when there have been important business or financial news stories and during the seasonal periods of peak SEC filing activity.stories. These strains on itsour systems could cause customer dissatisfaction and could discourage visitors from becoming paying subscribers. The Company’sOur websites could experience disruptions or interruptions in service due to the failure or delay in the transmission or receipt of information from Investview.com.us. These types of occurrences could cause users to perceive itsour website and technology solutions as not functioning properly and cause them to use other methods or services of itsour competitors. Any disruption resulting from these actions may harm the Company’sour business and may be very expensive to remedy, may not be fully covered by our insurance, and could damage itsour reputation, and discourage new and existing users from using itsour products and services. Any disruptions could increase costs and make profitability even more difficult to achieve.
We will need to introduce new products and services and enhance existing products and services to remain competitive.
Our future success depends in part on our ability to develop and enhance our products and services. In addition, the adoption of new Internet, networking or telecommunications technologies or other technological changes could require us to incur substantial expenditures to enhance or adapt our services or infrastructure. There are significant technical and financial costs and risks in the development of new or enhanced products and services, including the risk that we might be unable to effectively use new technologies, adapt our services to emerging industry standards, or develop, introduce and market enhanced or new products and services. An inability to develop new products and services, or enhance existing offerings, could have a material adverse effect on our profitability.
We rely on external service providers to perform certain key functions.
We rely on a number of external service providers for certain key technology, processing, service, and support functions. External content providers provide us with crypto mining services, financial information, market news, charts, option and stock quotes, research reports, and other fundamental data that we offer to clients. These service providers face technological and operational risks of their own. Any significant failures by them, including improper use or disclosure of our confidential client, employee, or company information, could cause us to incur losses and could harm our reputation.
We cannot assure that any external service providers will be able to continue to provide these services in an efficient, cost-effective manner or that they will be able to adequately expand their services to meet our needs. An interruption in or the cessation of service by any external service provider as a result of systems failures, capacity constraints, financial constraints or problems, unanticipated trading market closures, or for any other reason, and our inability to make alternative arrangements in a smooth and timely manner, if at all, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
We could face liability and other costs relating to storage and use of personal information about itsour users.
Users provide the Companyus with personal information, including tax identification numbers, which it doeswe do not share without the user’s consent. Despite this policy of obtaining consent, however, if third persons were able to penetrate the Company’sour network security or otherwise misappropriate itsour users’ personal information. The company doesinformation, we could be subject to liability, including claims for unauthorized purchases with credit card information, impersonation or other similar fraud claims, and misuses of personal information, such as for unauthorized marketing purposes. New privacy legislation may further increase this type of liability. Furthermore, we could incur additional expenses if additional regulations regarding the use of personal information were introduced or if federal or state agencies were to investigate our privacy practices. We do not store user credit card information and reliesrely upon itsour merchant processing partners to collect and store this information with the necessary Payment Card Industry Security Standards compliance in place. However, a breach of the merchant’s security standards could create liability for the company.
Our business could be negatively affected if we are required to defend allegations of unfair competition and government regulation of the Internet could adversely affect the Company’s business.
Advertising and marketing of our products in the United States are also subject to regulation by the FTCFederal Trade Commission (“FTC”) under the Federal Trade Commission Act, or FTC Act. Among other things, the FTC Act prohibits unfair methods of competition and unfair false or deceptive acts or practices in or affecting commerce. The FTC Act also makes it illegal to disseminate or cause to be disseminated any false advertisement. The FTC routinely reviews websites to identify questionable advertising claims and practices. Competitors sometimes inform the FTC when they believe other competitors are violating the FTC Act and consumers also notify the FTC of what they believe may be wrongful advertising. The FTC may initiate a non-publicnonpublic investigation that focuses on our advertising claims, which usually involves non-publicnonpublic, pre-lawsuit, extensive formal discovery. Such an investigation may be verylengthy and expensive to defend be lengthy, and result in a publicly disclosed Consent Decree, which is aconsent decree or settlement agreement. If no settlement can be reached, the FTC may start an administrative proceeding or a federal court lawsuit against us or our principal officers. The FTC often seeks to recover from the defendants, whether in a Consent Decreeconsent decree or a proceeding, any or all of the following: (i) consumer redress in the form of monetary relief or disgorgement of profits; (ii) significant reporting requirements for several years; and (iii) injunctive relief. In addition, most, if not all, states have statutes prohibiting deceptive and unfair acts and practices. The requirements under these state statutes are similar to those of the FTC Act.
We accept and hold cryptocurrencies, which may subject us to exchange risk and additional tax and regulatory requirements
We have recently begun accepting cryptocurrencycryptocurrencies bitcoin and etherium as a form of payment. Cryptocurrencies are not considered legal tender or backed by any government and have experienced significant price volatility, technological glitches, and various law enforcement and regulatory interventions. If we fail to comply with regulations or prohibitions applicable to us, we could face regulatory or other enforcement actions and potential fines and other consequences. We also hold cryptocurrencies directly, and we havesubjecting us to exchange rate risk on the amounts we hold as well as the risksrisk that regulatory or other developments and the recent price volatility may adversely affect the value of the cryptocurrencies we hold. The uncertainties regarding legal and regulatory requirements relating to cryptocurrencies or transactions using cryptocurrencies, as well as potential accounting and tax issues or other requirements relating to cryptocurrencies, could have a material adverse effect on our business.
Our business could be negatively affected if we are required to defend allegations that our direct selling activities are fraudulent or deceptive schemes, are against public interest, or are the sale of unregistered securities.
Direct selling activities are regulated by the FTC, as well as various federal, state, and local governmental agencies in the United States and foreign countries. These laws and regulations are generally intended to prevent fraudulent or deceptive schemes, often referred to as “pyramid” schemes, which compensate participants primarily for recruiting additional participants without significant emphasis on product sales. Regulators may take the position that some or all of our products are deemed to be securities, the sale of which has not been registered.
Our independent distributors could fail to comply with applicable legal requirements or our distributor policies and procedures, which could result in claims against us that could harm our business.
Our independent distributors are independent contractors and, accordingly, we are not in a position to directly provide the same oversight, direction, and motivation as we could if they were our employees. As a result, we cannot assure that our independent distributors will comply with applicable laws or regulations or our distributor policies and procedures.
Extensive federal, state, local, and international laws regulate our business, products and direct selling activities. Because we have expanded into foreign countries, our policies and procedures for our independent distributors differ slightly in some countries due to the different legal requirements of each country in which we do business.
Our proprietary systems may be compromised by hackers.
Our current products and other products and services that we may develop in the future will be based on proprietary software and customer-specific data that we protect by routine measures such as password protection, confidentiality and nondisclosure agreements with employees, and similar measures. Any unauthorized access to our software or data could materially disrupt our business and result in financial loss and damages to our business reputation.
Our future success is largely dependent on our current management.
Our business was built by the vision, dedication, and expertise of our officers Ryan Smith, Annette Raynor, Chad Miller, Mario Romano, and William Kosoff, who are responsible for our day-to-day operations and creative development. Our success is dependent upon the continued efforts of these people. If it became necessary to replace them, it is unlikely new management could be found that would have the same level of knowledge and dedication to our success. The loss of the services of these professionals, especially in the development of future proprietary software, patents, or applications, would adversely affect our business.
Risks Related to Our Common Stock
We have a history of operating losses and expect to report future losses that may cause our stock price to decline.
For the operating period since inception through March 31, 2018,2019, we have reported an accumulated deficit of $20,067,403.$25,096,983. We reported a net loss of $14,913,016$5,011,036 for the year ended March 31, 20182019, and a net loss from operations of $10,676,154.$3,940,856. We cannot be certain whether we will ever bebecome profitable, or if we do, that we will be able to continue to be profitable. Also, any economic weakness or global recession may limit our ability to market our products. Any of these factors could cause our stock price to decline and result in youinvestors losing a portion or all of yourtheir investment.
We may choosewill need to raise additional capital.
Because our revenues are not yet sufficient to cover expenses or fund our growth, we need to secure ongoing funding. If we are unable to obtain adequate additional financing, we may not be able to successfully market and sell our products, our business operations will most likely be discontinued, and we will cease to be a going concern. To secure additional financing, we may need to borrow money or sell more securities. Under these circumstances, we may be unable to secure additional financing on favorable terms or at all. Selling additional stock, either privately or publicly, would dilute the equity interests of our stockholders. If we borrow money, we will have to pay interest and may also have to agree to restrictions that limit our operating flexibility. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing, we may have to curtail business operations, which would have a material negative effect on operating results and most likely result in a lower stock price.
Our common stock price has been and may continue to be extremely volatile.
Our common stock has experiencedclosed as low as $0.006 per share and as high as $0.0315 per share during the most recent fiscal year. We believe this volatility may be caused, in the past, and is expected to experience in the future, significant price and volume volatility, which substantially increases the risk that you may not be able to sell your shares at or above the price that you pay for the shares.
Additionally, in recent years the stock market in general, and the Over-the-Counter Bulletin BoardOTC Markets and technology stocks in particular, have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. In some cases, these fluctuations are unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of the underlying company. These market and industry factors may materially and adversely affect our stock price regardless of our operating performance. The historical trading of our common stock is not necessarily an indicator of how it will trade in the future and our trading price as of the date of this prospectusreport is not necessarily an indicator of what the trading price of our common stock might be in the future.
In the past, class action litigation has often been brought against companies following periods of volatility in the market price of those companies’ common stock. If we become involved in this type of litigation in the future it could result in substantial costs and diversion of management attention and resources, which could have a further negative effect on your investment in our stock.
We cannot assure that we will continue to be limited due to resale restrictions under applicable securities laws and the fact that approximately 39% of our outstanding shares are held by officers, directors and stockholders holding greater than a 5% interest in the Company. As a result of the limited trading market for our common stock and the lack of analyst coverage, the market price for our shares may continue to fluctuate significantly and will likely be more volatile than the stock market as a whole. There may be a limited demand for shares of our common stock due to the reluctance or inability of certain investors to buy stocks quoted for trading on the OTC Bulletin Board, lack of analyst coverage of our common stock and limited trading market for our common stock. As a result, even if prices appear favorable, there may not be sufficient demand to complete a stockholder’s sell order. Without an active public trading market or broader public ownership, shares of our common stock are likely to be less liquid than the stock of public companies with broad public ownership and an active trading market, and any of our stockholders who attempt to sell their shares in any significant volumes may not be able to do so at all, or without depressing the publicly quoted bid prices for our shares.
If we fail to file periodic reports with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, our common stock will not be subjectable to be traded on the “Penny Stock” rules promulgated byOTCQB.
Although our common stock trades on the OTCQB, a regular trading market for our common stock may not be sustained in the future. OTC Markets limits quotation on the OTCQB to securities of issuers that are current in their reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Because our common stock is considered a “penny stock,” any investment in our shares is considered to be a high-risk investment and is subject to restrictions on marketability.
Our common stock is considered a “penny stock” on the OTC Markets as it currently trades for less than $5.00 per share. The OTC Market system is generally regarded as a less efficient trading market than the Nasdaq Capital or Global Markets. The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition ofrules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks.” Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a "penny stock," for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share(other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or with an exercisequoted on the Nasdaq system, provided that current price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving aand volume information respecting transactions in these securities is provided by the exchange or system). The penny stock unless exempt, the rules require:
Because we have no plans to pay dividends on our common stock, stockholders must look solely to appreciation of our common stock to realize a gain on their investments.
We do not anticipate paying any dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain future earnings, if any, to finance the expansion of our business. Our future dividend policy is within the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon numerous factors, including our business, financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, and investment opportunities. In addition, our senior credit facility limits the payment of dividends without the prior written consent of the lenders. Accordingly, stockholders must look solely to appreciation of our common stock to realize a gain on their investment. This appreciation may not occur.
Certain provisions of Nevada law and of our corporate charter may inhibit a potential acquisition of our Company,company, and this could depress our stock price.
Nevada corporate law includes provisions that could delay, defer, or prevent a change in control of our company or our management. These provisions could discourage information contests and make it more difficult for you and otherour stockholders to elect directors and take other corporate actions. As a result, these provisions could limit the price that investors are willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock. For example:
● | without prior stockholder approval, our board of directors has the authority to issue one or more classes of preferred stock with rights senior to those of our common stock and to determine the rights, privileges, and preferences of that preferred stock; | |
● | there is no cumulative voting in the election of directors, which would otherwise allow less than a majority of stockholders to elect director candidates; and | |
● | stockholders cannot call a special meeting of stockholders. |
Our indemnification of our directors and officers may limit the rights of our stockholders.
While our board of directors and officers are generally accountable to our stockholders and us, the liability of our directors and officers to all parties is limited in certain respects under applicable state law and our articles of incorporation and bylaws, as in effect. Further, we have agreed or may agree to indemnify our directors and officers against liabilities not attributable to certain limited circumstances. This limitation of liability and indemnity may limit rights that our stockholders would otherwise have to seek redress against our directors and officers.
Additional issuances of stock options and warrants, convertible notes, and stock grants will cause additional substantial dilution to our stockholders.
Given our limited cash, liquidity, and revenues, it is likely that in the future, as in the past, we will issue additional warrants, stock grants, and convertible debt to finance our future business operations and acquisitions and strategic relationships. The issuance of additional shares of common stock, the exercise of warrants, and the conversion of debt to determinestock could cause additional dilution to our stockholders and could have further adverse effects on the rights, privileges and inferencemarket price for our securities or on our ability to obtain future financing. The 2018 increase in our authorized shares from two billion to ten billion increased the magnitude of this risk substantially.
The amount of authorized common stock may result in management implementing anti-takeover procedures by issuing new securities.
The proportion of unissued authorized shares to issued shares could, under certain circumstances, have an anti-takeover effect, for example, by permitting issuances that preferred stock;

However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse resultbusiness, we may be or have been involved in these or other matters may ariselegal proceedings from time to time that may harm our business. The Company’stime. Below is a description of all legal proceedings or claims as ofwe were involved in during the year ended March 31, 20182019, and through the date of this report are as follows:
● | On November 1, 2017, we filed a lawsuit in the Fourth Judicial District Court for Utah County, State of Utah, Wealth Generators, LLC, v. Evan Cabral, Daniel Lopez, John Legarreta, Johnathan Lopez, Julian Kuschner, Nick Gomez, Luke Shulla, Nestor Velazquez, Christopher Terry, Isis De La Torre, Alex Morton, Ivan Briongos, Brandon Boyd, and International Markets Live Ltd. d/b/a iMarketslive, Civil No. 170401615, alleging corporate espionage and misappropriation of corporate information. The lawsuit alleges that International Markets Live Ltd., dba iMarketslive, conspired with a number of individuals affiliated with Wealth Generators to steal our confidential information, intellectual property, and trade secrets.On September 27, 2018, the court issued its ruling granting in part and denying in part our motion for preliminary injunction. On January 2, 2019, the parties entered into a settlement agreement in which they agreed to release all claims and have the litigation dismissed with prejudice, with neither party making any payment to the other, but with the defendants agreeing to make a $5,000 donation to charity. On February 22, 2019, the matter was dismissed with prejudice. | |
● | In February 2018, we received a subpoena from the United States Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”). We complied with the terms of the subpoena, negotiated a resolution of this matter with the CFTC staff, and a final order was issued on September 14, 2018. Under the order, we did not admit or deny any of the allegations, agreed to pay a fine of $150,000, and agreed not to act as an unregistered commodities trading advisor in the future. As of March 31, 2019, we have paid $90,000 to the CFTC and the remaining unpaid balance has been included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet. | |
● | Jim Westphal filed a wage claim against Kuvera, LLC (at the time named Wealth Generators, LLC), in the United States District Court for the District of Utah, Central Division (Case No. 2:18-cv-00080) in the amount of $6,500 plus liquidated damages. Mr. Westphal is claiming unpaid overtime wages. We contend that Mr. Westphal was an independent contractor, hired on a limited basis to perform software services, and is accordingly not entitled to overtime payments under the Fair Labor Standards Act. Moreover, Mr. Westphal never provided the promised software pursuant to the parties’ agreement. We filed a counterclaim on July 12, 2018, seeking damages of approximately $20,000 and demanding a jury trial. In December 2018, the parties settled the matter with a joint motion. As a result of the settlement, we paid Mr. Westphal $1,500 and the case was dismissed. | |
● | In April of 2019, we received a summons and complaint from Fibernet Corp making claims of unpaid invoices and breach of contracts entered into in February 2012 and January 2015 as RazorData Corp. Without admitting fault or liability, in June of 2019, we entered into an agreement with Fibernet Corp to settle all claims and release us from any future claims in exchange for a payment of $35,160 to avoid ongoing litigation related to this matter. |
None of our directors, officers, or affiliates areis involved in a proceeding adverse to our business or havehas a material interest adverse to our business.

Results of Operations
Year Ended March 31, 2019, Compared to Year Ended March 31, 2018
Revenues
Revenue, net, increased $5,044,485,$11,741,649, or 39%66%, from $12,872,947 for the year ended March 31, 2017 to $17,917,432 for the year ended March 31, 2018. 2018, to $29,659,081 for the year ended March 31, 2019. The majority of the increase ($4,017,853) can be explained by our introductionincrease in subscription sales of cryptocurrency mining services as a new product.$13,123,623, which related largely to our establishment of Kuvera France, S.A.S. in November of 2018 and sales occurring in the European Union during the current year compared to no such sales in the prior year. The remainder of the increase was due to a decreaseour sales of equipment in chargebacks and refunds fromthe current year, versus no such sales in the prior year.year, explaining $694,954 of the increase. Our gross billings increased by 62%48%, or $9,066,248,$11,348,471, to $34,992,883 in the year ended March 31, 2019, versus $23,644,412 in the year ended March 31, 2018 versus $14,578,164 in the year ended March 31, 2017;2018; however, this was offset by refunds, incentives, credits, chargebacks, and amounts paid to suppliers.
Operating Costs
Operating costs increased $13,782,979,$5,006,351, or 93%18%, from $14,810,607 for the year ended March 31, 2017 to $28,593,586 for the year ended March 31, 2018. This was due2018, to an increase in our cost of sales and service of $5,850,248, an increase in commissions of $4,859,271, an increase in professional fees of $1,655,523, and an increase in general and administrative costs of $1,111,464. The increases could mostly be explained by our issuance of 174,375,333 million shares being issued in exchange for entering into a license agreement, a cloud mining agreement, and several consulting agreements, resulting in $6,846,059 worth of expense being recorded during the year ended March 31, 2018. Additionally, there were increases in commissions due to increasing revenues, the growth of the distribution network, and bonus programs in place that did not exist in the prior year. Lastly, there were increases due to larger amounts paid for increasing marketing and development efforts, as well as increases in accounting, audit, and legal fees associated with our reverse acquisition that was effective April 1, 2017, our public company filing requirements, and our agreements entered into during the period.
Other Income (Expense)
Other income (expense) went from $(4,212,273) for the year ended March 31, 2018. 2018, to $(966,471) for the year ended March 31, 2019. The increasedecrease is due to the loss on debt extinguishment and the loss on spin-off of operations during the year ended March 31, 2018, as compared to no such expense in the priorcurrent period. Additionally, during the year ended March 31, 2018, we issued 239,575,884 shares of our common stock in settlement of debt, wherein accrued liabilities, principal, accrued interest, and derivative liabilities were extinguished in the amounts of $430,892, $2,348,606, $20,696, and $38,557, respectively, and we recognized a loss on the settlement of debt in the amount of $3,186,394 in the statement of operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the year ended March 31, 2018,2019, we incurred a loss of $14,913,016.$5,011,036. However, only $1,045,665$2,983,251 was cash related. This negative cash flow was funded by borrowing $498,380$1,905,777 from related parties and proceeds of $1,675,000$4,115,961 from new lending arrangements, and proceeds of $3,121,776 from the sale of common stock, offset by repayments of $1,316,500$1,367,168 to related parties and $1,424,578$2,936,044 on debt.debt, along with $91,000 paid to repurchase our common stock. As a result, our cash and cash equivalents increaseddecreased by $1,498,070$1,357,042 to $1,490,686$133,644 as compared to $1,616$1,490,686 at the beginning of the fiscal year.
As of March 31, 2018,2019, our current liabilities exceeded our current assets equal to a working capital deficit of $3,919,260.$2,222,990. A year ago, at March 31, 2017,2018, the working capital deficit was $4,247,684. Most significantly, our debt was reduced through conversions into common stock, stock issued for liabilities and for services, and debt paid off during the year ended March 31, 2018.
The above matters, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. During the year ended March 31, 2018,2019, we raised $498,380$1,905,777 in cash proceeds from related parties $1,675,000and $4,115,961 in cash proceeds from new lending arrangements. Subsequent to March 31, 2019, we obtained $200,000 in cash proceeds from new lending arrangements and $3,121,776received $325,000 from the sale of our common stock. Additionally, during the year ended March 31, 2018, we exchanged $2,322,606 worth
Since our acquisition of debt into sharesWealth Generators in April of common stock. Going forward we plan to reduce obligations with cash flow provided by operations and pursue additional debt and equity financing; however, we cannot assure that funds will be available on terms acceptable to us, or if available, will be sufficient to enable us to fully complete our development activities or sustain operations. Nevertheless, the shortage of working capital adversely affects our ability to develop or participate in activities that promote our business, because a substantial portion of cash flow goes to reduce debt rather than to advance operating activities. To address this,2017 we have implemented a seriesnumber of adjustmentsinitiatives and we are beginning to its affiliate/distributor bonus plan. These adjustments are designed to bringsee the maximum payout percentage in line with company objectives. During the period, thepositive impact of these actions. First, our largest subsidiary, Kuvera, has a bonus plan exceeded maximum payout on three occasions andstructure for distributors of our services which consistently paid out nearbeyond our maximum threshold. Adjustments to this bonus plan have been made over the maximum percentage.last 12 months with additional adjustments planned for the next two quarters. This resulted in a gradual reduction in bonus payouts which reduced our losses. Second, we expanded the objectives of Investview through the acquisition and creation of additional subsidiaries to increase our sources of income and creating business activities in new sectors which includes:
● | Fully licensing SAFE Management LLC as a Registered Investment Advisor and Commodities Trading Advisor. This was done so SAFE Management could offer fully managed trading services to individuals who lacked the time to trade for themselves and provide reasonable advisory fees and minimum investment amounts to service individuals who do not meet the requirements of Qualified Investors. | |
● | We acquired the assets of United Games LLC and United League LLC which provided us highly experienced management, programmers, marketing and compliance personnel along with key technology components such as a fully coded back office and trademarked FIREFAN app. We are still in the process of adapting their technology to Kuvera operations and working on various distribution plans for FIREFAN. | |
● | We changed the name of our subsidiary WealthGen Global, which was an unused entity, to SAFETek LLC in preparation for our entry into the high-performance computing space to meet the needs of 4IR (Fourth Industrial Revolution) business needs which includes mining, blockchain technologies, gaming, artificial intelligence and 3-Dimensional rendering. This will enable us to provide HPC services to small, medium and startup entities who require specialized high-speed processing but cannot afford the infrastructure. By leasing our processing to these companies, we will aid these entities in bringing their products, inventions, improvements to market. | |
● | We have designed a program through Joint Venture known as APEX which enables individuals to purchase highly customized processing cards which SAFETek will lease from the purchasers for a fixed period of time at a fixed monthly lease payment. This enables individuals to participate in emerging growth without experiencing the volatility and potential loss experienced in the sector. |
These companies provide Investview a stake in 4IR, HPC, app development, fintech, blockchain and personal money management sectors. Each of these are areas that are targeted for significant growth spurred by innovations through technology.
While our liabilities are larger than our assets it is important to note that we seek to keep operating expenses low. The assets we have acquired and will continue to seek out are those of technology, mobile apps, and human resources. These assets are not easily defined on our balance sheet but represent our ability to carry out our objectives which we believe will ultimately generating positive cash flow, reduced debt and then profitability.
Further, while we have reported reoccurring losses and have an operating capital deficiency, we have been able to establish multiple companies to create various revenue streams as we move forward. Our largest challenge is operational cash flow as lending arrangements continue to be expensive causing us to deploy incoming cash to prior debt. We believecontinue to seek short term capital in arrangements that are partnership based with elements of debt and equity combined. Additionally, our immediate focus is the adjustments initiated will reduce the payout slowly over a three-month period with payout percentages closer to 60%.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Future events, however, may differ markedly from our current expectations and assumptions. While there are a number of significant accounting policies affecting our consolidated financial statements; we believe the following critical accounting policy involves the most complex, difficult, and subjective estimates and judgments.
Basis of Accounting
Our policy is to prepare itsour financial statements on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Investview, Inc., and our wholly owned subsidiaries, Kuvera, LLC, Investment Tools & Training, LLC, Razor Data Corp., and SAFE Management, LLC. We have determined that one affiliated entity, Kuvera LATAM S.A.S., which we conduct business with, is a variable interest entity and we are the primary beneficiary of the entitiesentity’s activities. As a result, we have consolidated the accounts of this variable interest entity into the accompanying consolidated financial statements. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Revenue Recognition
Effective April 1, 2018, we adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Subtopic 606-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606-10”). The adoption of ASC 606-10 had no impact on prior year or previously disclosed amounts. In accordance with FASB ASC Subtopic 605-10, Revenue Recognition, which requires that four basic criteria must be met before606-10, revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; (3)is measured based on a consideration specified in a contract with a customer and recognized when we satisfy the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured.
The majority of our revenue is generated by subscription sales and payment is received at the time of purchase. WeOur performance obligation is to provide services over a fixed subscription period; therefore, we recognize revenue for subscription salesratably over the subscription period and deferred revenue is recorded for the portion of the subscription period subsequent to each reporting date. Additionally, we offer a 10-day trial period to subscription customers, during which a full refund can be requested if a customer does not like the product. Revenues are deferred during the trial period as collectability cannot be reasonably assuredcollection is not probable until that time has passed. Revenues are presented net of refunds, sales incentives, credits, known and estimated refunds, and known and estimated credit card chargebacks.
We generate revenue from the sale of cryptocurrency mining services to our customers through ouran arrangement with a third-party supplier. We report net revenue retainedOur performance obligation is to arrange for the third-party to provide mining services to our customers and payment is received at the time of purchase, therefore revenue is recognized upon receipt of payment. We recognize revenue in the amount of the fee to which represents our fees earnedwe are entitled to as an agent.
We generate revenue from the sale of high-speed computer processing equipment that is used for any of the following intense processing activities: protein folding, CGI rendering, game streaming, machine and deep learning, mining, independent financial verification, and general high-speed computing. Our performance obligation is to deliver an equipment package to our customers that includes hardware, software, and firmware and is drop-shipped to a hosting data center. We receive payment at the time of purchase and recognize revenue when the equipment package is delivered and ready for maintenance and hosting, which our customers arrange for, and obtain, from a separate third party that provides such services.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014,February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with CustomersASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 606)842)”.ASU 2014-09 creates a new topic in the ASC Topic 606 and establishes a new control-based revenue recognition model,2016-02 changes the basisaccounting for deciding when revenueleased assets, principally by requiring balance sheet recognition of assets under lease arrangements. It is recognized over time or at a point in time, provides new and more detailed guidance on specific topics, and expands and improves disclosures about revenue. In addition, ASU 2014-09 adds a new Subtopic to the Codification, ASC 340-40, Other Assets and Deferred Costs: Contracts with Customers, to provide guidance on costs related to obtaining a contract with a customer and costs incurred in fulfilling a contract with a customer that are not in the scope of another ASC Topic. The guidance in ASU 2014-09 is effective for public entities for annual reporting periods, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods therein. Early application is not permitted. Management is2018. In June of 2019, we signed a three-year lease agreement for office space in Eatontown, New Jersey, therefore we will adopt this standard effective April 1, 2019 and will account for our new lease agreement accordingly. We note that the processadoption of assessing theASU 2016-02 will have no other impact of ASU 2014-09 on the Company’sour consolidated financial statements.
There are no additional recently issued accounting pronouncements that we have not yet adopted that we believe are applicable or would have a material impact on our financial statements.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, and results of operations, liquidity, or capital expenditures.
Trends, Risks, and Uncertainties
We have sought to identify what we believe to be the most significant risks to our business, but we cannot predict whether, or to what extent, any of such risks may be realized nor can we guarantee that we have identified all possible risks that might arise. Investors should carefully consider all of such risk factors before making an investment decision with respect to our Common Stock.
Cautionary Factors That May Affect Future Results
We have sought to identify what we believe are significant risks to our business, but we cannot predict whether, or to what extent, any of such risks may be realized nor can we guarantee that we have identified all possible risks that might arise.
Potential Fluctuations in Annual Operating Results
Our annual operating results may fluctuate significantly in the future as a result of a variety of factors, most of which are outside our control, including: the demand for our products and services; seasonal trends in purchasing, the amount and timing of capital expenditures and other costs relating to the commercial and consumer financing; price competition or pricing changes in the market; technical difficulties or system downtime; general economic conditionsconditions; and economic conditions specific to the consumer financing sector.
Our annual results may also be significantly impacted by the accounting treatment of acquisitions, financing transactions, or other matters. Particularly at our early stage of development, such accounting treatment can have a material impact on the results for any quarter. Due to the foregoing factors, among others, it is likely that our operating results may fall below our expectations or those of investors in some future quarter.
Management of Growth
We may experience growth, which will place a strain on our managerial, operational, and financial systems resources. To accommodate our current size and manage growth if it occurs, we must devote management attention and resources to improve our financial strength and our operational systems. Further, we will need to expand, train, and manage our sales and distribution base. There is no guarantee that we will be able to effectively manage our existing operations or the growth of our operations, or that our facilities, systems, procedures, or controls will be adequate to support any future growth. Our ability to manage our operations and any future growth will have a material effect on our stockholders.
If we fail to remain current on our reporting requirements, we could be removed from the OTC Bulletin BoardMarkets, which would limit the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and the ability of stockholders to sell their securities in the secondary market.
Companies trading on the OTC Bulletin Board,Markets, such as us, must be reporting issuers under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and must be current in their reports under Section 13, in order to maintain price quotation privileges on the OTC Bulletin Board.Markets. If we fail to remain current on our reporting requirements, we could be removed from the OTC Bulletin Board.Markets. As a result, the market liquidity for our securities could be severely adversely affected by limiting the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and the ability of stockholders to sell their securities in the secondary market.
We are not required to provide the information required by this Item.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that material information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or 1934 Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and acting chief financial officer as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer (principal financial officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13(a)-15(e) under the 1934Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on this evaluation, because of the Company’sour limited resources and limited number of employees, management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective as of March 31, 2018.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company’sOur internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurances regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of theour financial statements of the Company in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. 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 or compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
With the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 20182019 based on the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO"(“COSO”). Based on our evaluation and the material weaknesses described below, management concluded that the Companywe did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 20182019, based on the COSO framework criteria. Management has identified the following material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting: 1) The Company lacks(1) We lack controls to ensure theywe are adequately capturing theirour liabilities at each reporting date. 2) The Company does(2) We do not have the appropriate processes or controls in place to efficiently or timely match transactions within theirour accounting system to theirour back-end operating system. 3) The Company lacks(3) We lack the processes and controls necessary to timely reconcile theirour accounts and to adequately analyze complex disclosure and presentation issues. Management of the CompanyOur management believes that these material weaknesses have been due to the small size of the Company’sour accounting staff and reliance on outside consultants for external reporting.
In light of the above-mentioned material weaknesses, we performed additional analyses and procedures in order to conclude that our consolidated financial statements for the year ended March 31, 20182019, included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K were fairly stated in accordance with US GAAP.
Management’s report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regardingon internal control over financial reporting. Management’s reportreporting was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission rules that permit us to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Acting Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Companycompany have been detected. These inherent limitations include, but are not limited to, the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
Changes in Internal Controls
During the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2018,2019, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls over financial reporting.

In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 20182019, and 2017,2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended March 31, 2018,2019, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Consideration of the Company’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 4 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered losses from operations and its current cash flow is not enough to meet current needs. This raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regards to this matter are also described in Note 4. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Accounting
Our policy is to prepare itsour financial statements on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As a result, we have consolidated the accounts of this variable interest entity into the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Further, because we do not have any ownership interest in this variable interest entity, we have allocated the contributed capital in the variable interest entity as a component of noncontrolling interest. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Foreign Exchange
We have consolidated the accounts of Kuvera France S.A.S. and Kuvera LATAM S.A.S. into our consolidated financial statements. The operations of Kuvera France S.A.S. are conducted in France and its functional currency is the Euro. The operations of Kuvera LATAM S.A.S. are conducted in Colombia and its functional currency is the Colombian Peso.
The financial statements of Kuvera France S.A.S. and Kuvera LATAM S.A.S. are prepared using the Colombian Pesotheir respective functional currency and have been translated into U.S. dollars (“USD”).

Financial instruments that potentially expose the Companyus to concentration of credit risk include cash, accounts receivable, and advances. The Company places itsWe place our cash and temporary cash investments with credit quality institutions. At times, such investments may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit of $250,000.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considerswe consider all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2019 and 2018, and 2017 the Companywe had no cash equivalents.
Receivables
Receivables are carried at net realizable value, representing the outstanding balance less an allowance for doubtful accounts based on a review of all outstanding amounts. Management determines the allowance for doubtful accounts by regularly evaluating individual receivables and receivables are written off when deemed uncollectible. Recoveries of receivables previously written off are recorded when received. The CompanyWe had no allowance for doubtful accounts as of March 31, 20182019 and 2017.
Cryptocurrencies
We hold cryptocurrency-denominated assets (“cryptocurrencies”) and include them in our consolidated balance sheet as other current assets. We record cryptocurrencies at fair market value and recognize the change in the fair value of our cryptocurrencies as an unrealized gain or loss in the consolidated statement of operations. As of March 31, 20182019 and March 31, 20172018, the fair value of our cryptocurrencies was $142,061 and $480,370, respectively. During the year ended March 31, 2019, we recorded $16,241 and $0,$106,488 as realized and unrealized gain (loss) on cryptocurrency, respectively. During the year ended March 31, 2018, we recorded $(10,939) and $(135,729) as realized and unrealized gain (loss) on cryptocurrency, respectively. We recorded no realized or unrealized gain (loss) on cryptocurrencies during the year ended March 31, 2017.
Fixed Assets
Fixed assets are stated at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives as follows:
Furniture, fixtures, and equipment | 10 years | ||
Computer equipment | 3 years |
When retired or otherwise disposed, the carrying value and accumulated depreciation of the fixed asset is removed from its respective accounts and the net difference less any amount realized from disposition, is reflected in earnings. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs which do not extend the useful lives of the related assets are expensed as incurred.
INVESTVIEW, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2019 AND 2018
Fixed assets are presented net of accumulated depreciation of $7,173$12,505 and $4,534,$7,173, as of March 31, 20182019 and 2017,2018, respectively. Total depreciation expense for the years ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, was $5,332 and 2017 was $2,639, and $2,270, respectively.
Long-Lived Assets – Intangible Assets & License Agreement
We account for our intangible assets and long-term license agreement in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), Subtopic 350-30, General Intangibles Other Than Goodwill, (“and ASC 350-30”).Subtopic 360-10-05, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. ASC Subtopic 350-30 requires assets to be measured based on the fair value of the consideration given or the fair value of the assets (or net assets) acquired, whichever is more clearly evident and, thus, more reliably measurable. Further, ASC Subtopic 350-30 requires an intangible asset to be amortized over its useful life which we have determinedand for the useful life to be 15 years.evaluated every reporting period to determine whether events or circumstances warrant a revision to the remaining period of amortization. If the estimate of useful life is changed the remaining carrying amount of the intangible asset is amortized prospectively over the revised remaining useful life. Costs of internally developing, maintaining, or restoring intangible assets are recognized as an expense when incurred.
In June of 2017 we issued 80,000,000 shares of common stock with a value of $2,256,000 for a 15-year license agreement. Annual amortization over the 15-year life is expected to be $150,400 related to ourper year. Amortization recognized for the year ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, was $150,400 and $122,380, respectively, and the long-term license agreement.
In June of 2018 we purchased United Games, LLC and United League, LLC and recorded the transaction as a business combination (see Note 5). Intangible assets acquired in the business combination were recorded at fair value on the date of acquisition and are being amortized on a straight-line method over their estimated useful lives.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
We have adopted ASC Subtopic 360-10, Property, Plant and Equipment (“ASC 360-10”).Equipment. ASC 360-10 requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles held and used by the Companyus be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable or when the historical cost carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. Events relating to recoverability may include significant unfavorable changes in business conditions, recurring losses, or a forecasted inability to achieve break-even operating results over an extended period.
INVESTVIEW, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MARCH 31, 2019 AND 2018
We evaluate the recoverability of long-lived assets based upon future net cash flows expected to result from the asset, including eventual disposition. Should impairment in value be indicated, the carrying value of intangible assets will be adjusted and an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the asset’s carrying value and fair value or disposable value.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
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, based on our principal or, in the absence of a principal, most advantageous market for the specific asset or liability.
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles provide for a three-level hierarchy of inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value, defined as follows:
Level 1: | Inputs that are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity can access. | |
Level 2: | Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability, 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; and | |
- | inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means. |
Level 3: | Inputs that are unobservable and reflect management’s own assumptions about the inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances (e.g., internally derived assumptions surrounding the timing and amount of expected cash flows). |
Our financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable. We have determined that the book value of our outstanding financial instruments as of March 31, 20182019 and March 31, 2017,2018, approximates the fair value due to their short-term nature.
Items recorded or measured at fair value on a recurring basis in the accompanying consolidated financial statements consisted of the following items as of March 31, 2019:

Advertising, Selling, and Marketing Costs
We expense advertising, selling, and marketing costs as incurred. Advertising, selling, and marketing costs include costs of promoting our product worldwide, including promotional events. Advertising, selling, and marketing expenses for the years ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, totaled $878,936 and 2017 totaled $454,225, and $500,032, respectively.
Income Taxes
We have adopted ASC Subtopic 740-10, Income Taxes, which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statement or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Temporary differences between taxable income reported for financial reporting purposes and income tax purposes consist primarily of derivative liability and stock compensation accounting versus basis differences.

Net Income (Loss) per Share
We follow ASC Subtopic 260-10, Earnings per Share, which specifies the computation, presentation, and disclosure requirements of earnings per share information. Basic loss per share has been calculated based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Convertible debt, stock options, and warrants have been excluded as common stock equivalents in the diluted loss per share because their effect is anti-dilutive on the computation.
Potentially dilutive securities excluded from the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share are as follows:

NOTE 3 – RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In May 2014,February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with CustomersASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 606)842)”.ASU 2014-09 creates a new topic in the ASC Topic 606 and establishes a new control-based revenue recognition model,2016-02 changes the basisaccounting for deciding when revenueleased assets, principally by requiring balance sheet recognition of assets under lease arrangements. It is recognized over time or at a point in time, provides new and more detailed guidance on specific topics, and expands and improves disclosures about revenue. In addition, ASU 2014-09 adds a new Subtopic to the Codification, ASC 340-40, Other Assets and Deferred Costs: Contracts with Customers, to provide guidance on costs related to obtaining a contract with a customer and costs incurred in fulfilling a contract with a customer that are not in the scope of another ASC Topic. The guidance in ASU 2014-09 is effective for public entities for annual reporting periods, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods therein. Early application is not permitted. Management is2018. In June of 2019, we signed a three-year lease agreement for office space in Eatontown, New Jersey, therefore we will adopt this standard effective April 1, 2019 and will account for our new lease agreement accordingly. We note that the processadoption of assessing theASU 2016-02 will have no other impact of ASU 2014-09 on the Company’sour consolidated financial statements.
There are no additional recently issued accounting pronouncements that we have not yet adopted that we believe are applicable or would have a material impact on our financial statements.
NOTE 4 – GOING CONCERN AND LIQUIDITY
Our financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern that contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. We have incurred significant recurring losses, which have resulted in an accumulated deficit of $20,067,403$25,096,983 as of March 31, 2018,2019, along with a net loss of $14,913,016$5,011,036 and net cash used in operations of $1,045,665$2,983,251 for the year ended March 31, 2018.2019. Additionally, as of March 31, 2018,2019, we had a working capital deficit of $3,919,260.$2,222,990. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Historically we have relied on increasing revenues and new debt financing to pay for operational expenses and debt as it came due. During the year ended March 31, 2018,2019, we raised $498,380$1,905,777 in cash proceeds from related parties $1,675,000and $4,115,961 in cash proceeds from new lending arrangements. Subsequent to March 31, 2019, we obtained $200,000 in cash proceeds from new lending arrangements and $3,121,776received $325,000 from the sale of our common stock. Additionally, during the year ended March 31, 2018, we exchanged $2,322,606 worth
Since our acquisition of debt into sharesWealth Generators in April of common stock. Going forward we plan to reduce obligations with cash flow provided by operations and pursue additional debt and equity financing; however, we cannot assure that funds will be available on terms acceptable to us, or if available, will be sufficient to enable us to fully complete our development activities or sustain operations. Nevertheless, the shortage of working capital adversely affects our ability to develop or participate in activities that promote our business, because a substantial portion of cash flow goes to reduce debt rather than to advance operating activities. To address this,2017 we have implemented a seriesnumber of adjustmentsinitiatives and we are beginning to see the positive impact of these actions. First, our affiliate/distributor bonus plan. These adjustments are designed to bring the maximum payout percentage in line with company objectives. During the year ended March 31, 2018 thelargest subsidiary, Kuvera, has a bonus plan exceeded maximum payout on three occasions andstructure for distributors of our services which consistently paid out nearbeyond our maximum threshold. Adjustments to this bonus plan have been made over the maximum percentage.last 12 months with additional adjustments planned for the next two quarters. This resulted in a gradual reduction in bonus payouts which reduced our losses. Second, we expanded the objectives of Investview through the acquisition and creation of additional subsidiaries to increase our sources of income and creating business activities in new sectors which includes:
● | Fully licensing SAFE Management LLC as a Registered Investment Advisor and Commodities Trading Advisor. This was done so SAFE Management could offer fully managed trading services to individuals who lacked the time to trade for themselves and provide reasonable advisory fees and minimum investment amounts to service individuals who do not meet the requirements of Qualified Investors. | |
● | We acquired the assets of United Games LLC and United League LLC which provided us highly experienced management, programmers, marketing and compliance personnel along with key technology components such as a fully coded back office and trademarked FIREFAN app. We are still in the process of adapting their technology to Kuvera operations and working on various distribution plans for FIREFAN. | |
● | We changed the name of our subsidiary WealthGen Global, which was an unused entity, to SAFETek LLC in preparation for our entry into the high-performance computing space to meet the needs of 4IR (Fourth Industrial Revolution) business needs which includes mining, blockchain technologies, gaming, artificial intelligence and 3-Dimensional rendering. This will enable us to provide HPC services to small, medium and startup entities who require specialized high-speed processing but cannot afford the infrastructure. By leasing our processing to these companies, we will aid these entities in bringing their products, inventions, improvements to market. | |
● | We have designed a program through Joint Venture known as APEX which enables individuals to purchase highly customized processing cards which SAFETek will lease from the purchasers for a fixed period of time at a fixed monthly lease payment. This enables individuals to participate in emerging growth without experiencing the volatility and potential loss experienced in the sector. |
These companies provide Investview a stake in 4IR, HPC, app development, fintech, blockchain and personal money management sectors. Each of these are areas that are targeted for significant growth spurred by innovations through technology.
While our liabilities are larger than our assets it is important to note that we seek to keep operating expenses low. The assets we have acquired and will continue to seek out are those of technology, mobile apps, and human resources. These assets are not easily defined on our balance sheet but represent our ability to carry out our objectives which we believe will ultimately generating positive cash flow, reduced debt and then profitability.
Further, while we have reported reoccurring losses and have an operating capital deficiency, we have been able to establish multiple companies to create various revenue streams as we move forward. Our largest challenge is operational cash flow as lending arrangements continue to be expensive causing us to deploy incoming cash to prior debt. We believecontinue to seek short term capital in arrangements that are partnership based with elements of debt and equity combined. Additionally, our immediate focus is the adjustments initiated will reduce the payout slowly over a three-month period with payout percentages closer 60%.
Accordingly, the accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate our continuation as a going concern and the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The carrying amounts of assets and liabilities presented in the financial statements do not necessarily purport to represent realizable or settlement values. The financial statements do not include any adjustment that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

MARCH 31, 2019 AND 2018 we received a subpoena from the United States Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”). We complied with the terms of the subpoena and have negotiated a resolution of this matter with the CFTC staff. Under the proposed resolution, we will not admit or deny any of the allegations, will pay a fine of $150,000, and will agree not to act as an unregistered Commodities Trading Advisor in the future. We cannot provide any assurance that the resolution we have negotiated with the CFTC staff will be approved by the CFTC. We await the acceptance of the resolution from the CFTC.
● | In February 2018, we received a subpoena from the United States Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”). We complied with the terms of the subpoena, negotiated a resolution of this matter with the CFTC staff, and a final order was issued on September 14, 2018. Under the order, we did not admit or deny any of the allegations, agreed to pay a fine of $150,000, and agreed not to act as an unregistered Commodities Trading Advisor in the future.

● | Jim Westphal filed a wage claim against Kuvera, LLC (at the time named Wealth Generators, LLC), in the United States District Court for the District of Utah, Central Division (Case No. 2:18-cv-00080) in the amount of $6,500 plus liquidated damages. Mr. Westphal is claiming unpaid overtime wages. We contend that Mr. Westphal was an independent contractor, hired on a limited basis to perform software services, and is accordingly not entitled to overtime payments under the Fair Labor Standards Act. Moreover, Mr. Westphal never provided the promised software pursuant to the parties’ agreement. We filed a counterclaim on July 12, 2018, seeking damages of approximately $20,000 and demanding a jury trial. In December 2018, the parties settled the matter with a joint motion. As a result of the settlement, we paid Mr. Westphal $1,500 and the case was dismissed. | |
● | In April of 2019, we received a Summons and Complaint from Fibernet Corp making claims of unpaid invoices and breach of contracts entered into in February 2012 and January 2015 as RazorData Corp.

However, due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, the NOL accumulated prior to the April 1, 2017, acquisition can only offset future income of up to $13,837 per year until expired.
