2 -Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Going Concern

a.Going Concern- The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the recoverability of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the recoverability of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. For the ninesix months ended June 30, 2017,March 31, 2018, the Company has incurred a net lossesloss of approximately $6,554,000$3,021,808 and used cash in operations of approximately $503,000.$795,719. The working capital deficit, stockholders' deficit and accumulated deficit was $9,447,400, $5,495,035,$13,020,086, $9,201,968, and $12,583,565,$16,878,233, respectively, at June 30, 2017.March 31, 2018. Furthermore, on April 13, 2017 the Company received a default notice on its payment obligations under the senior secured credit facility agreement (note 4 and 12)(see Note 5), defaulted on its Note Payable – Seller, and as of June 2017March 31, 2018 is subject to lawsuits and has received demand noticesdemands for payment of past due amounts from collection agencies on behalf of several vendorsconsultants and management has been suspended access to their corporate offices and was served with a lawsuit by the landlord.service providers. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of twelve months from the issuance date of this report. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon management’s ability to further implement its business plan and raise additional capital as needed from the sales of stock or debt. The Company has been implementing cost-cutting measures and restructuring or setting up payment plans with vendors and service providers and plans to implement cost-cutting measures, raise equity through a private placement, and restructure or repay its secured obligations, and structure payment plans, if necessary, with vendors and service providers who are owed money.obligations. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be required should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

b.Use of Estimates - The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include the allowance for bad debt on accounts receivable, reserves on inventory, valuation of non-cash compensation paid in business combinations, fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations, valuation of goodwill and intangible assets for impairment analysis, valuation of the earn-out liability at balance sheet dates, valuation of stock based compensation and the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.

 

c.Principles of Consolidation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Drone USA, Inc., Drone USA, LLC, and HowCo. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company follows the FASBFair Value Measurementsstandard, as they apply to its financial instruments. This standard defines fair value, outlines a framework for measuring fair value, and details the required disclosures about 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. The standard establishes a hierarchy in determining the fair value of an asset or liability. The fair value hierarchy has three levels of inputs, both observable and unobservable. Level 1 inputs include quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in an active market that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 2 inputs are market data, other than Level 1, that are observable either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted market prices in an inactive market, and other observable information that can be corroborated by market data. Level 3 inputs are unobservable and corroborated by little or no market data. The standard requires the utilization of the lowest possible level of input to determine fair value and carrying amounts of current liabilities approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. The Company accounts for certain instruments at fair value using level 3 valuation.

Inventory

Inventory consists of finished goods, which are purchased directly from manufacturers. The Company utilizes a just in time type of inventory system where products are ordered from the vendor only when the Company has received sales order from its customers. Inventory is stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value on a first-in, first-out basis.

Revenue Recognition

Sales are recognized upon shipment of product to the customer. Provisions for returns and allowances are recorded in the period the sales occur. Payments received from customers prior to shipment of the product to them, are recorded as customer deposit liabilities.

Convertible Notes with Fixed Rate Conversion Options

The Company may enter into convertible notes, some of which contain, predominantly, fixed rate conversion features, whereby the outstanding principal and accrued interest may be converted by the holder, into common shares at a fixed discount to the market price of the common stock at the time of conversion. This results in a fair value of the convertible note being equal to a fixed monetary amount. The Company records the convertible note liability at its fixed monetary amount by measuring and recording a premium, as applicable, on the Note date with a charge to interest expense in accordance with ASC 480 - "Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity".

Stock-based compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of ASC 718 –“Compensation –Stock Compensation”, which requires recognition in the financial statements of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The ASC also requires measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award. The Company utilizes the Black-Sholes option pricing model and uses the simplified method to determine expected term because of lack of sufficient exercise history. Additionally, effective January 1, 2017, the Company adopted the Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-09 (“ASU 2016-09”), Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. ASU 2016-09 permits the election of an accounting policy for forfeitures of share-based payment awards, either to recognize forfeitures as they occur or estimate forfeitures over the vesting period of the award. The Company has elected to recognize forfeitures as they occur and the cumulative impact of this change did not have any effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Pursuant to ASC 505-50 –“Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees”, all share-based payments to non-employees, including grants of stock options, are recognized in the consolidated financial statements as compensation expense over the service period of the consulting arrangement or until performance conditions are expected to be met. Using a Black-Scholes valuation model, the Company periodically reassessed the fair value of non-employee options until service conditions are met, which generally aligns with the vesting period of the options, and the Company adjusted the expense recognized in the consolidated financial statements accordingly.

d.5Inventory - Inventory consists of finished goods, which are purchased directly from manufacturers. The Company utilizes a just in time type of inventory system where products are ordered from the vendor only when the Company has received sales order from its customers. Inventory is stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value on a first-in, first-out basis.

 

e.Revenue Recognition - Sales are recognized upon shipment of product to the customer. Provisions for returns and allowances are recorded in the period the sales occur. Payments received from customers prior to shipment of the product to them, are recorded as customer deposit liabilities.

 

f.Net (Loss) Per Share - Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the loss attributable to stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that shared in the earnings (loss) of the Company. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the loss available to stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period and dilutive potential shares outstanding unless such dilutive potential shares would result in anti-dilution. As of June 30, 2017, 50,851,200 options were outstanding of which 33,025,000 were exercisable, 500,000 warrants were outstanding of which 500,000 were exercisable, and convertible debt and accrued interest totaling approximately $883,232 was convertible into approximately 3,633,000 shares of common stock. As of June 30, 2017, the Company was in default on the note payable dated September 13, 2016 (see note 4). As of June 30, 2017, the outstanding principal balance, including accrued interest, totaled $3,613,168 and was convertible into approximately 18,250,000 shares of common stock. In addition, as of June 30, 2017, the contingent liability – advisory fees totaling $850,000, which is subject to a make-whole provision, would require the issuance of an additional 3,324,432 shares of common stock.

g.Recent Accounting Pronouncements - In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an accounting standards update that will change how companies account for certain aspects of its share-based payments to employees. For public business entities, the amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted for any entity in any interim or annual period. The Company has elected to early adopt. As a result, the Company will recognize share-based award forfeitures in the period they occur as a reversal of previously recognized compensation expense. The reduction in compensation expense will be determined based on the specific awards forfeited during that period. There were no forfeitures during the periods presented in the consolidated financial statements.

Derivative Liabilities

The Company has certain financial instruments that contain embedded derivatives. The Company evaluates all its financial instruments to determine if those contracts or any potential embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for in accordance with ASC 810-10-05-4 and 815-40.  This accounting treatment requires that the carrying amount of any embedded derivatives be recorded at fair value at issuance and marked-to-market at each balance sheet date.  In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, as is the case with the Company, the change in the fair value during the period is recorded as either income or expense. Upon conversion, exercise or repayment, the respective derivative liability is marked to fair value at the conversion, repayment or exercise date and then the related fair value amount is reclassified to income or expense as part of gain or loss on extinguishment. 

Net Loss Per Share

Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the loss attributable to stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that shared in the earnings (loss) of the Company. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the loss available to stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period and dilutive potential shares outstanding unless such dilutive potential shares would result in anti-dilution. As of March 31, 2018 and 2017, potentially dilutive securities consisted of the following:

  March 31, 2018  March 31, 2017 
Stock options  44,351,200   33,025,000 
Warrants  600,000   500,000 
Related party convertible debt and accrued interest  9,398,132   3,688,000 
Senior convertible debt  77,814,212   17,670,000 
Convertible debt  31,285,292   - 
Contingent liability – advisory fees  -   3,156,448 
Total  163,448,836   58,039,448 

Segment Reporting

The Company uses “the management approach” in determining reportable operating segments. The management approach considers the internal organization and reporting used by the Company’s chief operating decision maker for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the source for determining the Company’s reportable segments. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the chief executive officer of the Company, who reviews operating results to make decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance for the entire Company. As of March 31, 2018, the Company did not report any segment information since the Company only generates sales from its subsidiary, HowCo.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued a new accounting standard that attempts to establish a uniform basis for recording revenue to virtually all industries financial statements, under U.S. GAAP as amended in March 2016 and April 2016. The revenue standard’s core principle is built on the contract between a vendor and a customer for the provision of goods and services. It attempts to depict the exchange of rights and obligations between the parties in the pattern of revenue recognition based on the consideration to which the vendor is entitled. In order to accomplish this objective, companies must evaluate the following five basic steps: (i) identify the contract with the customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. There are three basic transition methods that are available - full retrospective, retrospective with certain practical expedients, and a cumulative effect approach. Under the third alternative, an entity would apply the new revenue standard only to contracts that are incomplete under legacy U.S. guidance at the date of initial application and recognize the cumulative effect of the new standard as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. Prior years would not be restated and additional disclosures would be required to enable users of the financial statements to understand the impact of adopting the new standard in the current year compared to prior years that are presented under legacy U.S. guidance. For public business entities, this standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is prohibited. The Company is currently evaluatingdoes not believe that the impactadoption of this new accounting standard to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.

8

In February 2016, the FASB issued a new accounting standard on leases. The new standard, among other changes, will require lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases. The lease liability will be measured at the present value of the lease payments over the lease term. The right-of-use asset will be measured at the lease liability amount, adjusted for lease prepayments, lease incentives received and the lessee’s initial direct costs (e.g. commissions). The new standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. The adoption will require a modified retrospective approach for leases that exist or are entered into after the beginning of the earliest period presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this new accounting standard on its consolidated financial position and results of operations.

 

The Company does not believe that any other recently issued but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Upon liquidation by the Holder of Conversion Shares issued pursuant to a Conversion Notice, provided that the Holder realizes a net amount from such liquidation equal to less than the Conversion Amount specified in the relevant conversion notice (such net realized amount, the "Realized Amount"), the Company shall issue to the Holder additional shares of the Company's common stock equal to: (i) the Conversion Amount specified in the relevant conversion notice;minus(ii) the Realized Amount, as evidenced by a reconciliation statement from the Holder (a "Sale Reconciliation") showing the Realized Amount from the sale of the Conversion Shares;divided by(iii) the average volume weighted average price of the Company's common stock during the five business days immediately prior to the date upon which the Holder delivers notice (the "Make-Whole Notice") to the Company that such additional shares are requested by the Holder (such number of additional shares to be issued, the "Make-Whole Shares").

Other Convertible Debt

In July 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-11 Earnings Per Share (Topic 260) Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480) Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) (“ASU 2017-11”), which changes 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. ASU 2017-11 also clarifies 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 a result of the existence of a down round feature. For freestanding equity classified financial instruments, ASU 2017-11 requires entities that present earnings per share (EPS) in accordance with ASC Topic 260 to recognize the effect of the down round feature when it is triggered. That effect is treated as a dividend and as a reduction of income available to common shareholders in basic EPS. For the Company, ASU 2017-11 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company adopted this standard on October 1, 2017.

On October 5, 2017, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Power Up Lending Group Ltd. (“Power Up”) under which the Company received $78,500, net of $21,500 in fees and expenses to be recorded as a debt discount and amortized to interest expense over the Note term, in return for issuing a convertible promissory note (the “Note”) in the principal amount of $100,000. Power Up received a right of first refusal for the first nine months from the date of the Note to provide any debt or equity financing less than $150,000. The Note bears interest at 10% per annum and has a maturity date of July 15, 2018. The Note may be prepaid at a premium ranging from 112% to 137% depending on the length of time following the date of the Note. The Note is convertible after 180 days into shares of the Company’s common stock at a discount of 35% of the average of the two lowest closing bid prices of Drone USA’s common stock 15 days prior to the date of conversion and the maximum number of shares issued to Power Up may not exceed 4.99% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock. The Note is subject to customary default provisions, including a cross default provision. The Company’s CEO entered into a confession of judgment in the principal amount of the Note. The Company has accounted for the convertible promissory note as stock settled debt under ASC 480 and recorded a debt premium of $53,846 with a charge to interest expense.

The Company has accounted for the convertible promissory notes as stock settled debt under ASC 480 and recorded a debt premium of $27,857 with a charge to interest expense. On March 7, 2018 the Company entered into a placement agent and advisory agreement with Scottsdale Capital Advisors in connection with the Livingston liability purchase term sheet executed on November 15, 2017. The placement agent services amounted to $15,000 payable in the form of a convertible note which was assigned by Livingston (the “Scottsdale Note”).

The $15,000 note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a discount of 30% of the low closing bid price for the twenty trading days prior to the conversion and is not subject to any registration rights.

Pursuant to the Liability Purchase Term Sheet, following a court judgment for the liabilities purchased by Livingston, the Company will issue free trading shares of its common stock under section 3(a)(10) of the Securities Act to Livingston in the amount of such judgment in a series of tranches so that Livingston will not own more than 9.99% of our outstanding shares per tranche.

Following entry of an Order by the Court which occurred on March 12, 2018, in settlement of the claims, the Company shall issue and deliver to Livingston shares of its common stock (the "Settlement Shares") in one or more tranches as necessary, and subject to adjustment and ownership limitations as set forth in the Settlement Agreement, sufficient to generate proceeds such that the aggregate Remittance Amount equals the Claim Amount.

The Note is subject to customary default provisions and also includes a cross-default provision as well as default being triggered if the Company loses the “bid” price for its common stock ($0.0001 on the “ask” with zero market makers on the “bid” per Level 2 and/or a market such as OTC Pink) and a $15,000 penalty if not paid by the maturity date.

The Company was under default for failing to maintain a market capitalization of at least $5,000,000 on any trading day. The 335,938 commitment shares were considered issued in February 2018 which was recorded as interest and financing costs at the then market close price of $0.09 per share for a value of $30,234.

Certain statements made in this Quarterly ReportCautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information and Factors That May Affect Future Results

This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements regarding our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

Drone also provides product procurement, distribution, and logistics services through its wholly-owned subsidiary, HowCo Distributing Co., to the United States Department of Defense and Defense Logistics Agency. The Company has operations based in West Haven, Connecticut and Vancouver, Washington.

The Company continues to seek strategic acquisitions and partnerships with UAV firms that offer superior technologies in high-growth markets, as well as acquisitions and partnerships with firms that have complementary technologies and infrastructure.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of June 30, 2017,March 31, 2018, we had $1,718,798$1,466,088 in current assets, including $134,526$13,679 in cash, compared to $2,980,021$2,059,246 in current assets, including $631,020$152,492 in cash, at September 30, 2016.2017. Current liabilities at June 30, 2017March 31, 2018 totaled $11,166,198$14,486,174 compared to $6,392,243$12,419,948 at September 30, 2016.2017. The decrease in current assets from September 30, 20162017 to June 30, 2017March 31, 2018 is primarily due to thea decrease in inventory of approximately $347,000 and a decrease in cash of approximately $500,000, the decrease in inventory of approximately $880,000, the decrease in prepaid expenses and other assets of approximately $50,000, offset by the increase in accounts receivable of approximately $167,000.$139,000. The increase in current liabilities from September 30, 20162017 to June 30, 2017March 31, 2018 is primarily due to the increase in the current portion of the noteconvertible notes payable of approximately $2,530,000,$4,638,500 primarily due to the borrowing of funds under convertible note agreements and conversion of accrued liability forand contingent advisory fees of $1,200,000,$2,050,000 into convertible notes, amortization of debt discount and accretion of a premium, an increase in notes payable of $703,604, and an increase in accrued expenses of approximately $625,000, and$167,000 offset by a decrease in accounts payable of approximately $465,000.$1,417,000. While we have revenues as of this date, no significant UAV revenues are anticipated until we have implemented our full plan of operations, specifically, initiating sales campaigns for our UAV platforms. We must raise cash to implement our strategy to grow and expand per our business plan. We anticipate over the next 12 months the cost of being a reporting public company will be approximately $250,000.

 

If we cannot raise additional proceeds via a private placement of itsour equity or debt securities, or secure a loan,more loans, we would be required to cease business operations. As a result, investors would lose all of their investment. Under the terms of our credit agreement with TCA, all potential new investments must first be reviewed and approved by TCA, which may constrain our options for new fundraising.

 

19

We anticipate our short-term liquidity needs to be approximately $9,000,000$12,500,000 which will be used to satisfy our existing current liabilities of approximately $11,000,000 reduced by our expectedand we expect gross profits of approximately $2,000,000. To meet these needs we intend to complete equity financing and refinance or restructure certain existing liabilities. Once this is completed, and we implement our sales and marketing plan to sell UAV products, we anticipate minimal long-term liquidity needs which we expect to meet through equity financing or short-term borrowings.

15

  

Additionally, we will have to meet all the financial disclosure and reporting requirements associated with being a publicly reporting company. Our management will have to spend additional time on policies and procedures to make sure it is compliant with various regulatory requirements, especially that of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. This additional corporate governance time required of management could limit the amount of time management has to implement the business plan and may impede the speed of its operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.

 

21

We regularly evaluate the accounting policies and estimates that we use to prepare our financial statements. In general, management’s estimates are based on historical experience, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management. These estimates are based on Management’s historical industry experience and not the company’s historical experience.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

Trade receivables are recorded at net realizable value consisting of the carrying amount less the allowance for doubtful accounts, as needed. Factors used to establish an allowance include the credit quality of the customer and whether the balance is significant. The Company may also use the direct write-off method to account for uncollectible accounts that are not received. Using the direct write-off method, trade receivable balances are written off to bad debt expense when an account balance is deemed to be uncollectible.

 

Inventory

 

Inventory consists of finished goods, which are purchased directly from manufacturers. The Company utilizes a just in time type of inventory system where products are ordered from the vender only when the Company has received sales order from its customers. Inventory is stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value on a first-in, first-out basis.

 

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

 

The Company’s goodwill and tradename assets are deemed to have indefinite lives and, accordingly, are not amortized, but are evaluated for impairment at least annually, but more often whenever changes in facts and circumstances occur which may indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The customer list was deemed to have a life of four years and will be amortized through September 2020.

 

Long-Lived Assets

 

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Impairment is measured by comparing the carrying value of the long-lived assets to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from use of the assets and their ultimate disposition. In instances where impairment is determined to exist, the Company writes down the asset to its fair value based on the present value of estimated future cash flows.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Sales are recognized upon shipment of product to the customer. Provisions for returns and allowances are recorded in the period the sales occur. Payments received from customers prior to shipment of the product to them, are recorded as customer deposit liabilities.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

The cost of all share-based payments to employees, including grants of restricted stock and stock options, is recognized in the consolidated financial statements based on their fair values measured at the grant date, or the date of any later modification, over the requisite service period. The cost of all share-based payments to non-employees, including grants of restricted stock and stock options, is recognized in the consolidated financial statements based on their fair values at each reporting date until measurement date occurs, over the requisite service period. The Company recognizes compensation cost for unvested stock awards on a straight-line basis over the requisite vesting period.

Convertible Notes with Fixed Rate Conversion Options

We may enter into convertible notes, some of which contain, predominantly, fixed rate conversion features, whereby the outstanding principal and accrued interest may be converted by the holder, into common shares at a fixed discount to the market price of the common stock at the time of conversion. This results in a fair value of the convertible note being equal to a fixed monetary amount. We record the convertible note liability at its fixed monetary amount by measuring and recording a premium, as applicable, on the Note date with a charge to interest expense in accordance with ASC 480 - "Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity".

 1722 

 

Derivative Liabilities

The Company has certain financial instruments that contain embedded derivatives. The Company evaluates all its financial instruments to determine if those contracts or any potential embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for in accordance with ASC 810-10-05-4 and 815-40.  This accounting treatment requires that the carrying amount of any embedded derivatives be recorded at fair value at issuance and marked-to-market at each balance sheet date. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, as is the case with the Company, the change in the fair value during the period is recorded as either income or expense. Upon conversion, exercise or repayment, the respective derivative liability is marked to fair value at the conversion, repayment or exercise date and then the related fair value amount is reclassified to income or expense as part of gain or loss on extinguishment. 

Net Loss Per Share

 

Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the loss attributable to stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that shared in the earnings (loss) of the Company. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing the loss available to stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding for the period and dilutive potential shares outstanding unless such dilutive potential shares would result in anti-dilution. Pursuant to ASB 260, contingent shares issued under a Securities purchase agreement are not considered outstanding and are not included in basic net loss per shares or as potentially dilutive shares in calculating the diluted EPS.

 

Tax Loss Carryforwards

 

The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the tax effects of differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is established to reduce the deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will not be realized.

  

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to our stockholders.

We maintain disclosure“disclosure controls and procedures,” as that areterm is defined in Rule 13a-15(e), promulgated by the SEC pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, as appropriate,including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management, with the participation of the principal executive officer and supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer,principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and determinedprincipal financial officer concluded that as of March 31, 2018, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

 

The ineffectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures was due to the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting: (1) the lack of multiples levels of management review on complex accounting and financial reporting issues, (2) a lack of adequate segregation of duties and necessary corporate accounting resources in our financial reporting process and accounting function as a result of our limited financial resources to support hiring of personnel and implementation of accounting systems, (3) lack of inventory controls, and (4) since the resignation of our former CFO in July 2017, we do not have a qualified in-house financial accounting expert to maintain our parent company and consolidation level books and records. To remediate this situation we have engaged outsourced accountants. It is likely that we will continue to report material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting.

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

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reportinginternal control over financial reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and Rule 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act that occurred during the period covered by this reportquarter ended March 31, 2018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

Our management, Michael Bannon, who is now both CEO and CFO, does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. 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. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected.

These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

ITEM 3.DEFAULTS UPON SENIOR SECURITIES

 

Under the terms of the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility Agreement (the “Credit Facility”) with TCA Global Credit Master Fund, L.P. (“TCA”), dated September 13, 2016, we borrowed $3.5 million to acquire our wholly-owned subsidiary, Howco Distributing Co., and pay certain creditors. The initial loan was due 18 months from the date of the loan and bears interest of 18% per annum. As of June 30, 2017, we had approximately $3,613,000 in outstanding principal and interest owed to TCA. Under the terms of the Credit Facility, all amounts due under it are secured by our assets, including the assets of Howco. As a result of being in default of our payment obligations under the Credit Facility, TCA could foreclose on its security and liquidate or take possession of some or all of these assets, which would harm our business, financial condition and results of operations and could require us to curtail, or even to cease, operations.
