VERONI BRANDS CORP.

Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements

June 30,March 31, 2022 and 2021 and 2020

 

Note 1 - Nature of Operations and Financial Condition

Veroni Brands Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated on December 7, 2016 under the laws of the state of Delaware to engage in any lawful corporate undertaking, including, but not limited to, selected mergers and acquisition.

 

The Company has been formed to acquire, operate, develop, grow and import premium European products into the U.S. market. Veroni Brands was created to search out desirable premium products across Europe and make them accessible to discerning consumers in the U.S. Veroni Brands strives to import the extraordinary and delight its consumers with experiences that had previously only been attainable in Europe. In January 2018, the Company became an exclusive importer and distributor of “Iron Energy” by Mike Tyson. The beverage became available to consumers in select Chicago area markets in May 2018 in three different flavors such as “Mojito,” “Zero Sugar” and “Original.” During 2019, the Company built the distribution of the Iron Energy product nationwide. Beginning in February 2019, the Company expanded its import and distribution network with the distribution of chocolate products and significantly grew its sales and distribution volumes. The Company entered into long term supply agreements with major U.S national retailers to import chocolate products under “Private Label Brands” that are currently being sold in over 20,000 retail locations across the U.S. The Company takes pride in the variety of consumer products it imports and is proud to share them with its consumers nationwide. The Company’s recent expansion of the import and distribution of snacks, chocolate and chocolate related products that are currently being sold to U.S. national retailers presents the Company with a substantial growth opportunity to introduce to its retail partners to many other consumer products and to increase its network of retailers.

The Company has generated revenue this year of approximately $$2,483,000148,644 and incurred a net loss of $$109,460533,215 for the sixthree months ended June 30, 2021ending March 31, 2022 and has an accumulated deficit of $$1,495,5682,625,889 since its inception. As of June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, the Company had a cash balance available of approximately $$90,78413 and negative working capital of ($($392,716)1,020,080 which is not sufficient to meet its operating requirements for the next twelve months. Therefore, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to grow its revenue and generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations and/or obtaining additional financing from its shareholders or other sources, as may be required.

 

The Company failed to meet its minimum annual purchase requirements under the FoodCare Sp. z.o.o. (“FoodCare”) agreement, in part due to FoodCare’s failure to provide promised marketing support. In 2020, the Company terminated the agreement and relationship with FoodCare and no longer had exclusive rights to distribute FoodCare’s Iron Energy drinks. The Company has found greater success with the distribution of chocolate and snack products instead of beverages. In addition to importing products from ZWC Millano, the Company has recently established relationships with other European manufacturers that can manufacture wide range of “panned” products, meaning those that are coated with a sugar syrup and/or chocolate, such as nuts, raisin, pretzels, fruits and many other “panned” and healthy snacks items as well as chocolate bars, multi-flavor truffles, sticks, chocolate cups, 5-bites, chocolate covered gummies, chocolate Easter eggs, custom Christmas chocolate figures as well as Advent calendars and many other products to support demand of the Company’s national retailers.

Note 1 - Nature of Operations and Financial Condition (continued)

The Company is continuing to evaluate various financing options in order to continue the funding of the expansion of its operations, the products being offered and its customer base. The Company is also focusing on broadening its customer base. As disclosed below in Accounts Receivable and Concentration of Credit Risk, a significant customer did not select the Company as a vendor for 2021.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern; however, the above condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Reclassifications

 

Certain reclassifications have been made in the 20202021 financial statements to conform to the 20212022 presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on net incomeloss for 2020.2021.

 

Advertising

 

The Company’s policy is to expense advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense for the sixthree months ending June 30,March 31, 2022 and 2021 and 2020 is $$550 and $0, respectively..

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the carrying amount of inventory and associated reserves, and allowances and reserves in regards to receivables and revenue. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company’s significant accounting policy for revenue was updated as a result of the adoption of ASU Topic 606. The Company has adopted the new standard on January 1, 2019 and has used the modified retrospective method. The majority of the Company’s business is ship and bill. Based on our analysis, the Company did not identify a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings at December 31, 2018. The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with the five-step model as prescribed by ASU 606 in which the Company evaluates the transfer of promised goods or services and recognizes revenue when its customer obtains control of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services. To determine revenue recognition for the arrangements that the Company determines are within the scope of ASU 606, the Company performs the following five steps: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and (5) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. See Note 1112 for revenue disaggregated by product line.

 

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of products when title and risk of loss passes and the customer accepts the goods, which generally occurs at the time of delivery to a customer warehouse. Customer sales incentives such as volume-based rebates or discounts are treated as a reduction of sales at the time the sale is recognized. Shipping and handling costs are treated as fulfillment costs and presented in warehouse and selling expenses.

 

Payments that are received before performance obligations are recorded are shown as current liabilities.

Concentration of Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash. The Company places its cash with high quality banking institutions. The Company did not have cash balances in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit as of June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2020,2021, respectively.

Accounts Receivable and Concentration of Credit Risk

Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amounts less an allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on the Company’s estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in its accounts receivable. The Company determines the allowance for doubtful accounts based upon an aging of accounts receivable, historical experience and management judgment. Accounts receivable balances are periodically reviewed for collectability, and balances are charged off against the allowance when the Company determines that the potential for recovery is remote. An allowance for doubtful accounts of approximately $$19,408 9,816and $-0- is reserved as of June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2020,2021, respectively.

 

We are exposed to credit risk in the normal course of business, primarily related to accounts receivable. To limit credit risk, management periodically reviews and evaluates the financial condition of its customers and maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts. For the sixthree months ended June 30,March 31, 2022, we had one customer who comprised approximately 100% or $15,580 of our contract receivables with recourse and one customer who comprised approximately 100% or $3,083 of our accounts receivable. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we had one customer who comprised approximately 95%56% or $$1,165,360394,045 of our contract receivables with recourse and two customers who comprised approximately 57%82% or $$187,43517,282 of our accounts receivable. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, we had one customer who comprised approximately 85% or $1,030,675 of our contract receivables with recourse.

 

For the sixthree months ended June 30,March 31, 2022, we had one customer with sales in excess of 10% of our revenue and they represented 98% of our revenue. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we had two customers with sales in excess of 10% of our revenue and they represented 80%89 of our revenue. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, we had two customers with sales in excess of 10% of our revenue and they represented 78%% of our revenue.

One of these customers had sales of approximately $1,270,257 and $1,512,608 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. In April 2021, the Company received a letter from this customer stating that the Company was not selected as a vendor for 2021.

Distribution Agreements and Supplier Concentration

In January 2018, the Company entered into a distributor agreement with FoodCare, which was amended and restated on January 30, 2018. FoodCare is a company organized under the laws of Poland. FoodCare is a manufacturer and supplier of desserts, cereals, energy drinks and other beverage products. FoodCare manufactures the “Iron Energy” drink, a product sponsored by celebrity Mike Tyson.

Under the terms of the distribution agreement, the Company became the exclusive distributor of FoodCare products in the United States, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. FoodCare is the sole supplier of Iron Energy to the Company. The term of the agreement was for ten years and gave the Company exclusive rights to distribute FoodCare products within the U.S. market, so long as the Company purchased the required quantity of product from FoodCare.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

The Company failed to meet its minimum purchases in 2018, due in part to FoodCare’s failure to provide marketing support as promised. The Company terminated the agreement and relationship with FoodCare in 2020. Sales of Iron Energy were only $33,475 in 2020. The termination of the “Iron Energy” drink distribution agreement did not significantly affect the company or its revenue, as the Company has found greater success with the distribution of chocolate and snack products instead of beverages.

 

At the beginning of 2019, the Company established relationships with other European manufacturers that can manufacture a wide range of “panned” products such as nuts, raisin, pretzels, fruits and many other “panned” and healthy snacks items, as well as chocolate bars, multi-flavor truffles, sticks, chocolate cups, 5-bites, chocolate covered gummies, chocolate Easter eggs, custom Christmas chocolate figures as well as Advent calendars and many other products to support demand from the Company’s national retailers.

 

In June 2021, the Company entered into storage and procurement distribution agreement with a transportation company to store the chocolate products, as well as fulfill the purchase orders from the Company’s customers. The agreement is for a term of two years from the date of first inbound receipt and may be terminated at the option of the Company upon 60 days’ notice.

Vendor Concentration

 

Currently, the Company is sourcing all its chocolate products and snacks from the Millano Group, a related party. The Company has not entered into a distributor agreement but is currently negotiating an agreement with Millano Group. The Company, due to relationships with other European manufacturers could find other sources to replace its chocolate and snack products if the Company were to terminate Millano Group as itsit’s suppler for chocolate products. Total purchases for the sixthree months ended for June 30,2021ending March 31, 2022 and 20202021 were approximately $$1,614,8050 and $$1,921,624531,712, respectively which represents 100% and 100%100% of product purchases.purchases, respectively.

Income Taxes

Under ASC 740, Income Taxes, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Valuation allowances are established when it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. As of June 30,March 31, 2022 and 2021, and 2020, there were no net deferred tax assets, as the Company established a 100% valuation allowance, due to the uncertainty of the realization of net operating loss carryforwards prior to their expiration.expiration.

Loss Per Common Share

Basic loss per common share excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per common share reflect 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 then shared in the loss of the entity. As of June 30,March 31, 2022 and 2021, and 2020, there are 0 outstanding dilutive securities.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company follows guidance for accounting for fair value measurements of financial assets and financial liabilities and for fair value measurements of nonfinancial items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. Additionally, the Company adopted guidance for fair value measurement related to nonfinancial items that are recognized and disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a nonrecurring basis. The guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to measurements involving significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

VERONI BRANDS CORP.

Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements

June 30, 2021 and 2020

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

 

Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

 

Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

 

Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. The carrying amounts of financial assets such as cash approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.

 

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, which include cash and cash equivalents and accounts payable approximate their fair values at June 30,March 31, 2022 and 2021 and 2020 due to their short-term nature and management’s belief that their carrying amounts approximate the amount for which the assets could be sold or the liabilities could be settled.

Share-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of ASC 505-50, Equity–Based Payments to Non-Employees. Measurement of share-based payment transactions with non-employees is based on the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable: (a) the goods or services received; or (b) the equity instruments issued. The fair value of the share-based payment transaction is determined at the earlier of performance commitment date or performance completion date. In June 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board adopted Accounting Standards Update 2018-07 Compensation – Stock

 

Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. In that update, ASC 505 has been rescinded in its entirety and share based compensation issued to nonemployees will now fall under ASC 718 and its associated fair value measurements. Due to the Emerging Growth Company (see below) status of the Company, the Company has adopted the update on January 1, 2020.2020 .

Emerging Growth Company

 

The Company has elected to be an emerging growth company as defined under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (“Jobs Act”). Included with this election, the Company has also elected to use the provisions within the Jobs Act that allow companies that go public to continue to use the private company adoption date rules for new accounting policies. Should the Company obtain revenues in excess of $1 billion on an annual basis, have its non-affiliated market capitalization increase to over $700 million as of the last day of its second quarter, or raise in excess of $1 billion in public offerings of its equity or instruments directly convertible into its equity, it will forfeit its status under the Jobs Act as an emerging growth company.company

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The update simplifies the measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. The annual or interim goodwill impairment test is performed by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge should be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. The update also eliminates the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. The update should be applied on a prospective basis. The provisions of ASU 2017-04 are effective for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company has elected this accounting guidance as of January 1, 2020. It has had no effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Overview

Veroni Brands Corp. (formerly “Echo Sound Acquisition Corporation”) (“Veroni” or the “Company”) was incorporated on December 7, 2016, under the laws of the state of Delaware. The business purpose of the Company is to facilitate the sales and distribution of premium food products from Europe.

Prior to 2018, the Company’s operations were limited to issuing shares to its original stockholders and effecting a change in control of the Company. In 2018, the Company commenced its principal operations. The Company originated as a blank check company and qualifies as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act which became law in April 2012.

On January 30, 2018, the Company entered into a distribution agreement with FoodCare. Under the terms of the Distribution Agreement, the Company became the exclusive importer and distributor of FoodCare’s products in the United States, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands (the “U.S. market”). FoodCare is a manufacturer and supplier of desserts, cereals, energy drinks and other beverage products. Notably, FoodCare manufactures the “Iron Energy” drink, a product sponsored by celebrity and former boxer Mike Tyson. The term of the Distribution Agreement was for a period of 10 years during which Veroni was to have the exclusive right to distribute FoodCare products within the U.S. market, so long as Veroni purchased the required quantity of product from FoodCare. The Company failed to meet its minimum purchase requirements under the FoodCare agreement in 2018 in part due to FoodCare’s failure to provide promised marketing support. The Company terminated the agreement and relationship with FoodCare in 2020 due to the lack of its ability to support Veroni’s brand marketing initiatives.

In summer 2018, the Company introduced the Iron Energy beverage to various retailers and distributors nationwide and since then has been working with many retailers and distributors to bring the product to market.

In January 2019, the Company expanded its product offerings and established a relationship with another manufacturer, Millano Group, a related party, to import chocolate products, as well as snacks, for distribution to major retailers throughout the United States. The Company recently became the vendor of record and successfully delivered these products to several national retailers.

In February 2019, the Company engaged Tyler Distribution and Continental Logistics, two operating companies of Port Jersey Logistics, to better serve its customers throughout the United States. Management believes that this partnership will give the Company a tremendous opportunity to support its growth, as it will be able to store and ship products and fulfill its purchase orders received from its customers.

In June 2021, the Company engaged Roadtex Transportation Corporation with 31 facilities nationwide that handles LTL logistics to better serve its customers throughout the United States. Management believes that this partnership will give the Company a tremendous opportunity to support its growth, as it will be able to store and ship products and fulfill its purchase orders received from its customers.

 

The Company operates in the consumer packaged goods industry and it is focused on the import, sale and distribution of premium chocolate and snack products produced in Europe. The Company also serves as a supplier of confectionery products for major U.S. retailers under private label brands. The Company has also established relationshipsitself as a vendor of record with national retail chains across the United States and other European manufacturers that can provide a wide rangewell-known international retailers allowing its products to be sold in thousands of “panned” products, meaning those that are coated with a sugar syrup, chocolate, or both, such as nuts, raisins, pretzels, and fruit, as well as healthy snack items, and specialty confection goods.stores in the United States.

 

ForOur goal is to develop multiple brands of consumer packaged goods and become one of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020,leading suppliers and distributors in the United States of premium chocolate, snacks and beverage products from Europe. Our wide range of premium chocolate, snacks and beverage items allowed us to establish strong relationships with national retail chains across the United States and international retailers.

The Company is also seeking opportunities to merge with emerging brand companies that established themselves and their respective brand portfolio of items and are in need to access our national distribution network. We believe that a potential merger would give Veroni much bigger presence within national retailers in the United States and add variety of other products that Veroni can sell to its retailers and wholesalers in the consumer package goods space.

Chocolate Products

Veroni currently distributes its chocolate products under the Sweet Desire and Baron Chocolatier brands, as a going concern. Forwell as private label chocolate bars, cups and bites.

The Company is also in the year ending December 31, 2020, the Company has an accumulated deficitprocess of $1,386,108 sincedeveloping its inception. Asown brand and line of December 31, 2020, the Company had a cash balance available of approximately $116,730 and a working capital deficit of $342,796, which is not sufficient to meet its operating requirements for the next twelve months. Therefore, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to grow its revenue and generate sufficient cash flows from operations to meet its obligations and/or obtaining additional financing from its shareholders or other sources, as may be required. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern; however, the above condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.products:

The Company hired CA Fortune to analyze and develop the brand and create a portfolio of new products. The Company’s chocolate products are GMO free and Kosher and Halal certified, and contain all natural ingredients with zero trans-fat, no artificial flavors or colors.
The Company is approved and licensed by Rainforest Alliance to sell its chocolate products nationwide to its customers The Company believes that its key competitive advantage is that it can provide premium chocolate products at mainstream prices. The product is manufactured in Europe and imported via port in Germany into a warehouse near port of New Jersey and from there its being shipped across the country to its costumers’ distribution centers.
The Company handles the product design and development phases in-house, in collaboration with leading product design and development teams who traditionally serve major retailers in the United States.

RevenuesVeroni plans to gradually increase chocolate sales by offering products made with all natural ingredients priced at a slight discount to premium brand chocolates offered by competitors such as Godiva, Russell Stover, Lindt, and LossesGhirardelli. It also plans to incrementally grow chocolate sales by cross-merchandising chocolate products with its retail partners’ wine and coffee products.

Under the Small Business Administration (“SBA”), the Company applied for the Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loan.and received a loan from the SBA in the amount of $56,250 (the “PPP Loan”). These loans are forgiven if used for payroll, payroll benefits, including health insurance and retirement plans, as well as certain rent payments, leases, and utility payments, which are limited to 40% of the loan proceeds, all of which if paid within either 8 weeks or 24 weeks of the receipt of the loan proceeds. AtOn October 14, 2021 we received notice from the timeSBA that $38,550.50 of this filing, we anticipate a significant amountthe balance of this loan will be forgiven; however, the forgiveness application process is not yet complete.PPP Loan has been forgiven. The Company has elected to record these advances under the debt treatment for these loans, under GAAP guidance. Unforgiven portionsThe remainder of these loansthe PPP Loan will be repaid over 5 years, accruingaccrue interest at 1% per annum. The PPP loan hasannum and be paid in monthly payments of $3,003.05. As of March 31, 2022, a loan balance of $56,250 as June 30, 2021.$3,965 was outstanding under the PPP Loan.

 

On August 27, 2020, the Company executed the standard loan documents required for securing a loan (the “EIDL Loan”) from the SBA under its Economic Injury Disaster Loan (“EIDL”) assistance program in light of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business. Pursuant to that certain Loan Authorization and Agreement (the “SBA Loan Agreement”), the principal amount of the EIDL Loan is up to $150,000, with proceeds to be used for working capital purposes. On September 2, 2020, the Company received $149,900. Interest accrues at the rate of 3.75% per annum.

The Company’s proposed activities will necessitate significant uses of capital into and beyond 2021,2022, particularly for the financing of inventory. While the Company has a factoring arrangement, sales of equity securities in the Company would result in reduced financing costs. Since the beginning of 2018 and through June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, the Company has engaged in sales of its equity securities in private placements. Through June 30, 2021, 10,531,400March 31, 2022, 0 shares have been sold for total gross proceeds of $518,533, 56,997$0.00, 900,000 shares have been issued for services rendered valued at $69,747, 186,965 shares valued at $140,223 have been issued$1,575,000, of which $393,750 is expensed in lieu of interest, 286,667 shares have been issued upon conversion of a $215,000 promissory note, and a total of 2,270,000 shares were redeemed for $45,200.this quarter.

 

Plan of Operations

 

During 20192022 and 2020,2021, sales were concentrated in two customers. One of these customers notified the Company that it was not selected as a vendor for 2021.they decided to terminate the private label program going forward. Sales in 20212022 are expected to decrease by more than 50%63%. As vendor selection is an annual process with this customer, the Company is planning to reapply as a vendor for 20222023 season and broaden its customer base. For the next few years, the Company will continue to focus on obtaining visibility for the products by contacting convenience store locations and small distributors to those types of locations. In addition, the Company will also continue to expand the number of products to be imported from Europe and distributed throughout the United States.

 

Management believes that while the current COVID-19 crisis has not affected the volume of sales, it has resulted in the Company experiencing supply chain and transportation logistics issues. Manufacturers and those providing shipping and logistics services are increasing prices and/or decreasing the amount of product and/or services to the Company, thereby making it more difficult to meet the terms of contracts with retailers. Management believes that for the current fiscal year, the Company will experience reduced profit margins as a result. It is not known whether the supply chain and transportation logistics issues will continue into the future.

18

 

There is no assurance that the Company’s activities will generate sufficient revenues to sustain its operations without additional capital, or if additional capital is needed, that such funds, if available, will be obtainable on terms satisfactory to the Company. Accordingly, given the Company’s limited cash and cash equivalents on hand, the Company will be unable to implement its business plans and proposed operations unless it obtains additional financing or otherwise is able to generate revenues and profits. In 2019, the Company entered into a factoring agreement covering its accounts receivable (see below). The Company may raise additional capital through sales of debt or equity, obtain loan financing or develop and consummate other alternative financial plans. In the near term, the Company plans to rely on its primary stockholders to continue to fund the Company’s continuing operating requirements. The Company will require a minimum of $600,000 for the next 12 months to fund its operations, which will be used to fund expenses related to operations, office supplies, travel, salaries and other incidental expenses. Management believes that this capital would allow the Company to meet its operating cash requirements, and would facilitate the Company��sCompany’s business of selling and distributing its products. Management also believes that the acquisition of such assets would generate revenue to cover overhead cost and general liabilities of the Company, and allow the Company to achieve overall sustainable profitability.

Due to the above-described difficulties, management is seeking other opportunities outside of the import/distribution business in order to bring value to the stockholders.

 

Accounts Receivable Financing

 

On February 21, 2019, the Company entered into a factoring agreement with an unrelated third party, Advance Business Capital LLC, dba Interstate Capital (“ICC”), pursuant to which the Company sells the majority of its accounts receivable to ICC for 85% of the value of the receivable. The term of the agreement is for 12 months and automatically renews for additional 12-month periods. The accounts receivable are sold with recourse back to the Company, meaning that the Company bears the risk of non-payment by the account debtor. To secure its obligations to ICC, the Company has granted a blanket security interest in its other assets, such as inventory, equipment, machinery, furniture, fixtures, contract rights, and general intangibles. The loan is guaranteed by two major shareholders of the Company. On September 11, 2019, the lender (which now does business as Triumph Business Capital) entered into an amended agreement with the Company which lowered the interest charged by the lender from 0.49% for every 10 days to prime rate (with a floor of 5.5%) plus 3%. On January 27, 2021, the agreement was further amended to include the factoring of purchase orders at the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate. As of June 30, 2021March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2020,2021, the Company owes $1,112,856$13,531 and $649,502,$39,897, respectively for advances on their receivables. Of the $1,112,856 amount, $116,119 is related to the factoring of purchase orders. The Company bears all credit risk related to the receivables factored.

Alternative Financial Planning

 

The Company has no alternative financial plans at the moment. If the Company is not able to successfully raise monies as needed through a private placement or other securities offering (including, but not limited to, a primary public offering of securities), the Company’s ability to survive as a going concern and implement any part of its business plan or strategy will be severely jeopardized.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires making estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on its financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures and Changes in Internal Controls

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance the objectives of the control system are met.

 

As of June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, our management carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, the President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, because of the identification of the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described below. Notwithstanding the material weakness that existed as of June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, our President and Chief Financial Officer has concluded that the financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company and its subsidiaries in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

 

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a set of processes designed by, or under the supervision of, a company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP and includes those policies and procedures that:

 

 Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets;
 Provide reasonable assurance our transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and
 Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. It should be noted that any system of internal control, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system will be met. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, we conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on criteria established in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in 1992, as of June 30, 2021.March 31, 2022.

 

As a result of our material weakness described below, management has concluded that, as of June 30, 2021,March 31, 2022, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on the criteria in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework” issued by COSO.

Material Weakness in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

A material weakness is a deficiency or combination of deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility, that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. In connection with its assessment, management identified the following material weaknesses at June 30, 2021:March 31, 2022:

 

 There is a lack of segregation of duties within the accounting and financial reporting process along with the proper safeguards to prevent the management override of controls, as the Company has only one executive officer.
 Since we use external consultants to prepare our financial statements and provide sufficient documentation of such preparation and review procedures, our officer must rely on such documentation.
 We had only one executive officer at June 30, 2021.March 31, 2022.

 

Due to our limited resources, we expect these weaknesses in internal control to continue while we implement our business plan.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

During the period covered by this quarterly report, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

 

On June 17, 2019, The Scale Effect Company d/b/a Mant Logistics filed an amended complaint in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois naming as defendants the Company, Igor Gabal, Tomasz Kotas, and Baron Chocolatier, Inc. The action was originally against Baron Chocolatier only, alleging that Baron did not pay for shipping and logistics services in the amount of $277,233, plus accrued interest. The complaint was amended to allege that the Company is a successor corporation and continuation of Baron Chocolatier, thereby making the Company liable for the debts and liabilities of Baron, and that Baron is an alter ego for the Company, Igor Gabal and Tomasz Kotas. No trial date has been scheduled. The parties are still in the discovery stage. The Company intends to vigorously defend in this lawsuit.

 

In March 2021, Crossmark Inc. initial a lawsuit in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois, against the Company, seeking to collect payment for services rendered. The Company had entered into an agreement with Crossmark to promote the sale of the Iron Energy products which the Company had distributed. Crossmark alleges that $100,000 plus costs and attorneys’ fees are owed by the Company. The default judgment entered in this case has been vacated and the Company intends to defend in this lawsuit.
