Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the shareholders and the board of directors of Evasyst Inc.
Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Evasyst Inc. (the "Company") as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders' deficit, and cash flows, for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has not achieved profitable operations, and has incurred recurring operating losses and further losses are possible. The Company requires additional funds to meet its obligations and the costs of its operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in this regard are described in Note 1. 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 in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. 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 in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB.
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.

EVASYST INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 |
1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Business:
Evasyst Inc. (the "Company" or "Evasyst") is incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware, as amended and restated on August 18, 2017. Evasyst is a digital technology company, operating with the social video application Kast. The Company has a subsidiary, Rabbit Asset Purchase Corp., which has had no activity since 2020.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As of December 31, 2021, the Company has not achieved profitable operations, has incurred recurring operating losses and further losses are possible. As at December 31, 2021, the Company has an accumulated deficit of approximately $8.3 million. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to obtain the necessary financing to further develop its business. To date, the Company has funded operations through the issuance of capital stock and debt. Management plans to continue raising additional funds through equity or debt financings and loans from directors. There is no certainty that further funding will be available as needed. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue operating as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue its operations as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise sufficient new capital to fund its operating commitments and ongoing losses and ultimately on generating profitable operations. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to be recorded to assets or liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Such adjustments could be material.
Use of Estimates:
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company's significant estimates include those related to revenue recognition, stock-based compensation, software development costs, and income taxes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Foreign Exchange Transactions
The Company's functional currency is the U.S. dollar. Transactions in currencies other than the entity's functional currency are recorded at the exchange rate prevailing at the dates of the transactions. All gains and losses on these foreign currency transactions are included in the consolidated statements of operations.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments:
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents and debt approximate fair value given their short-term nature.
EVASYST INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 |
Cash and Cash Equivalents:
For the purpose of the balance sheets and statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid investments readily convertible to a known amount of cash with an original maturity of three months or less and subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value to be cash equivalents. Cash is held at major financial institutions and insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to federal insurance limits.
Revenue Recognition:
The Company recognizes revenue based on contracts with customers. A customer contract exists when both parties have approved the contract and are committed to perform their respective obligations, each party's rights can be identified, payment terms can be identified, the contract has commercial substance, and it is probable the Company will collect substantially all of the consideration to which it is entitled. The Company derives revenue primarily from subscription- based services. Revenues are recognized when control of these services is transferred to the customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those services.
The Company determines revenue recognition through the following steps:
• Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer;
• Identification of the performance obligations in the contract;
• Determination of transaction price;
• Allocation of transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and
• Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation.
During 2020, the Company began to offer a premium subscription service to its users by form of a monthly or annual contract. Subscription services revenue is comprised of cloud-based subscription fees that provide the paying user the right to access the Company's preferred features as a "Premium User", for a period of time. The Company has determined such access represents a stand-ready service provided continually throughout the contract term. As such, control and satisfaction of this stand-ready performance obligation is deemed to occur over time. The Company's subscription contracts include an annual option, beginning on the date that access is made available to the customer. The passage of time is deemed to be the most faithful depiction of the transfer of control of the services as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefit provided by the Company's performance. Subscription contracts are either one month or twelve months in length, billed either monthly or annually, all in advance, which coincides with the terms of the agreement. The Company recognizes deferred revenue at each period end for contracts that have subscriptions that have been paid but expire after period end. At December 31, 2021, the amount of deferred subscription revenue was $34,202 and will be recognized as revenue in 2022.
The Company's subscription contracts do not have a significant financing component and customer invoices are paid upfront. There is no significant variable consideration related to these arrangements. Amounts that have been invoiced are recorded in accounts receivable and in deferred revenue or revenue, depending on whether transfer of control to customers has occurred.
EVASYST INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 |
Fixed Assets:
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided for on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The average lives range from five (5) to ten (10) years. Leasehold improvements are amortized on the straight-line method over the lesser of the lease term or the useful life. When assets are retired or sold, the costs and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations. Maintenance and repairs that neither materially add to the value of the property nor appreciably prolong its life are charged to expense as incurred. Betterments or renewals are capitalized when incurred.
Capitalized Software Development Costs
Expenditures to establish the technological feasibility of a computer software product to be sold, leased or marketed are expensed as incurred as research and development costs. Costs of producing product masters incurred subsequent to establishing technological feasibility are capitalized and costs incurred when the product is available for general release to the customers are expensed as incurred. Upgrades and enhancements are capitalized if they result in added functionality which enables the software to perform tasks it was previously incapable of performing.
The amortization of capitalized software costs is based on an estimate of future revenue and the useful life of the software, both of which are inherently uncertain. It is reasonably possible the carrying amount of the software costs might be reduced in the near term due to these uncertain estimates.
Advertising Expense:
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are broken out separately in the accompanying statements of operations.
Leases:
Contractual arrangements are assessed at inception to determine if they represent or contain a lease. Right-of-use ("ROU") assets related to operating leases are separately reported in the balance sheets. Separate current and non-current liabilities for operating leases are reported on the balance sheets. Operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term. When the rate implicit to the lease cannot be readily determined, we utilize our incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of the future lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate is derived from information available at the lease commencement date and represents the rate of interest that we would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. The ROU asset includes any lease payments made and lease incentives received prior to the commencement date. The ROU assets and lease liabilities may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option.
EVASYST INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 |
Stock-Based Compensation:
The Company grants share awards and options to officers, employees and consultants. The fair value of awards and options granted is measured at the grant date and is recognized over the vesting period, which is the period over which all of the specific vesting conditions are satisfied. The fair value of share awards is measured using the most recent cash price per share received on sale of the Company's common stock. The Company uses the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model for valuation of stock options. Option pricing models require the input of subjective assumptions including the length of time employees will retain their vested stock options before exercising them, expected share price volatility, and interest rate. Changes in the input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate and the Company's net loss. Forfeitures are recognized as they occur.
Income Taxes:
The Company utilizes the liability method of accounting for income taxes which requires that deferred tax assets and liabilities be recorded to reflect the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the book and tax basis of various assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Additionally, deferred tax assets are evaluated, and a valuation allowance is established if it is more likely than not that all or a portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. There can be no assurance that the Company's future operations will produce sufficient earnings so that the deferred tax asset can be fully utilized. The Company currently maintains a full valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets.
Fair Value Measurements:
When required to measure assets or liabilities at fair value, the Company uses a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used. The Company determines the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements in their entirety fall. The categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Level 1 uses quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, Level 2 uses significant other observable inputs, and Level 3 uses significant unobservable inputs. The amount of the total gains or losses for the period are included in earnings that are attributable to the change in unrealized gains or losses relating to those assets and liabilities still held at the reporting date. We measure our investment in equity securities at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company has no assets nor liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
Convertible Debt
Upon the issuance of convertible debt, the Company evaluates embedded conversion features within convertible debt to determine whether the embedded conversion feature(s) should be bifurcated from the host instrument and accounted for as a derivative at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings. If the conversion feature does not require derivative treatment, the instrument is evaluated for consideration of any beneficial conversion features.
EVASYST INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 |
The Company generally accounts for warrants issued in connection with debt and equity financings as a component of equity. The equity component is treated as a discount on the liability component of the convertible debt, which is amortized over the term of the convertible debt using the effective interest rate method. Debt issuance costs related to the convertible debt are allocated to the liability and equity components of the convertible debt based on their relative values. Debt issuance costs allocated to the liability component are amortized over the life of the convertible debt as additional non-cash interest expense. Transaction costs allocated to equity are netted with the equity component of the convertible debt instrument in stockholders' deficit.
Contingencies:
In determining accruals and disclosures with respect to loss contingencies, the Company evaluates such accruals and contingencies for each reporting period. Estimated losses from loss contingencies are accrued by a charge to income when information available prior to issuance of the consolidated financial statements indicates that it is probable that a liability could be incurred, and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Legal expenses associated with the contingency are expensed as incurred. If a loss contingency is not probable or reasonably estimable, disclosure of the loss contingency is made in the consolidated financial statements when it is at least reasonably possible that a material loss could be incurred.
Net Loss per Share:
The Company calculates basic earnings (loss) per share by dividing net income or loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. We do not include the impact of any potentially dilutive common stock equivalents in our basic earnings (loss) per share calculations. Diluted earnings per share reflect potentially dilutive common stock equivalents, including options and warrants that could share in our earnings through the conversion of common shares, except where their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, the following securities are excluded from the calculation of diluted income per share as their effect would have been anti-dilutive to the net loss for the periods.

Accounting Standards Updates to Become Effective in Future Periods
In August 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2019-12 Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging-Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity. The update is to address issues identified as a result of the complexity associated with applying generally accepted accounting principles for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years and with early adoption permitted. Management is evaluating the impact of this update on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
EVASYST INC. NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 |
Other accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements upon adoption.
2. Convertible Notes
During 2020 and 2019, the Company received proceeds of $1,198,733 and $1,470,000 upon issuance of convertible debt. The convertible debt has the following terms:
• Interest accrues at 4% per annum.
• Payment is due 24 months after issuance of the note.
• The notes are unsecured.
• The notes can be converted into the Company preferred stock as follows:
o upon a financing, as defined by the note agreement, upon which the Company raises at least $3 million at the greater of 1) the number of shares obtained by dividing the each note balance by 85% price paid per share of the financing or 2) the number of shares obtained by dividing the balance by the price per share obtained by dividing $12.5 million by the Company's then outstanding capital stock assuming full conversion).
o In the event of a defined corporate transaction (an acquisition of the Company, a disposition of substantially all of the Company's asset, or a corporate venture pertaining to all or substantially all of the Company's asset), the note shall become immediately due and payable in an amount equal to 1.5 times its balance or be converted into a number of shares by the Company's valuation cap price per share.
o Upon maturity date or upon event of default of the note terms will be converted into a number of shares by the Company's valuation cap price per share.
At December 31, 2021 and 2020, accrued interest payable on these notes is $210,013 and $101,151, respectively.
At December 31, 2021 and 2020, convertible notes and accrued interest payable are due to the following related parties:
