CoroWare, Inc.
$5,000,000
10,000,000,000 SHARES OF COMMON STOCK
$0.0005 PER SHARE
This is the public offering of securities of CoroWare, Inc., a Delaware corporation. We are offering 10,000,000,000 shares of our common stock, par value $0.0001 (“Common Stock”), at an offering price of $0.0005 per share (the “Offered Shares”) by the Company. This Offering will terminate on twelve months from the day the Offering is qualified or the date on which the maximum offering amount is sold (such earlier date, the “Termination Date”). The minimum purchase requirement per investor is 10,000,000 Offered Shares ($5,000); however, we can waive the minimum purchase requirement on a case-by-case basis in our sole discretion.
These securities are speculative securities. Investment in the Company’s stock involves significant risk. You should purchase these securities only if you can afford a complete loss of your investment. See the “Risk Factors” section on page 4 of this Offering Circular.
We are a shell company pursuant to Rule 405 of the Securities Act. This will have a material impact on our ability to attract additional capital. See “Risk Factors – We are a shell company pursuant to Rule 405 of the Securities Act. This may impact our ability to attract additional capital.
The Company’s sole officer and director, Lloyd Spencer, is the owner of 100% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Series G Preferred stock. The Company’s Series G Preferred stock has voting rights equal to 5,000,000 votes per each one share.

No Escrow
The proceeds of this offering will not be placed into an escrow account. We will offer our Common Stock on a best efforts basis. As there is no minimum offering, upon the approval of any subscription to this Offering Circular, the Company shall immediately deposit said proceeds into the bank account of the Company and may dispose of the proceeds in accordance with the Use of Proceeds.

The Company, by determination of the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, may issue the Securities under this Offering for cash, promissory notes, services, and/or other consideration without notice to subscribers. The aggregate offering price is based on the price at which the securities are offered for cash. Any portion of the aggregate offering price or aggregate sales attributable to cash received in a foreign currency will be translated into United States currency at a currency exchange rate in effect on, or at a reasonable time before, the date of the sale of the securities. If securities are not sold for cash, the aggregate offering price or aggregate sales will be based on the value of the consideration as established by bona fide sales of that consideration made within a reasonable time, or, in the absence of sales, on the fair value as determined by an accepted standard. Valuations of non-cash consideration will be reasonable at the time made.
Sale of these shares will commence within two calendar days of the qualification date and it will be a continuous Offering pursuant to Rule 251(d)(3)(i)(F).
This Offering will be conducted on a “best-efforts” basis, which means our Officers will use their commercially reasonable best efforts in an attempt to offer and sell the Shares.

In offering the securities on our behalf, the Officers will rely on the safe harbor from broker-dealer registration set out in Rule 3a4-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
This Offering Circular shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sales of these securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful, prior to registration or qualification under the laws of any such state.

An investment in our Common Stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the following risk factors, together with the other information contained in this Offering Circular, before purchasing our Common Stock. Any of the following factors could harm our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects, and could result in a partial or complete loss of your investment. Some statements in this Offering Circular, including statements in the following risk factors, constitute forward-looking statements. Please refer to the section entitled “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements”.
Risks Relating to Our Financial Condition
Our independent registered accounting firm has expressed concerns about our ability to continue as a going concern.
The report of our independent registered accounting firm expresses concern about our ability to continue as a going concern based on the absence of significant revenues, our significant losses from operations and our need for additional financing to fund all of our operations. It is not possible at this time for us to predict with assurance the potential success of our business. The revenue and income potential of our proposed business and operations are unknown. If we cannot continue as a viable entity, we may be unable to continue our operations and you may lose some or all of your investment in our common stock.
We have limited operational history in an emerging industry, making it difficult to accurately predict and forecast business operation.
As we have less than ten years of corporate operational history and have yet to generate revenue under our new business model, it is extremely difficult to make accurate predictions and forecasts on our finances. This is compounded by the fact that we operate in both the carbon nanotubes and hydrogen sectors, which is a rapidly transforming technological sector. There is no guarantee that we will properly execute our business model in either sector.
As a growing company, we have yet to achieve a profit and may not achieve a profit in the near future, if at all.
We have not yet produced a net profit and may not in the near future, if at all. While we expect our revenue to grow, we have not achieved profitability and cannot be certain that we will be able to sustain our current growth rate or realize sufficient revenue to achieve profitability. Further, many of our competitors in the field of carbon nanotubes and hydrogen technology have a significantly larger user base and revenue stream but have yet to achieve profitability. Our ability to continue as a going concern may be dependent upon raising capital from financing transactions, increasing revenue throughout the year and keeping operating expenses below our revenue levels in order to achieve positive cash flows, none of which can be assured.
We may require additional capital to support business growth, and this capital might not be available on acceptable terms, if at all.
We intend to continue to make investments to support our business growth and may require additional funds to respond to business challenges, including the need to develop new features and products or enhance our existing products, improve our operating infrastructure or acquire complementary businesses and technologies. Accordingly, we may need to engage in continued equity or debt financings to secure additional funds. If we raise additional funds through future issuances of equity or convertible debt securities, our existing stockholders could suffer significant dilution, and any new equity securities we issue could have rights, preferences and privileges superior to those of our common stock. Any debt financing we secure in the future, could involve restrictive covenants relating to our capital raising activities and other financial and operational matters, which may make it more difficult for us to obtain additional capital and to pursue business opportunities, including potential acquisitions. We may not be able to obtain additional financing on terms favorable to us, if at all. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing or financing on terms satisfactory to us when we require it, our ability to continue to support our business growth and to respond to business challenges could be impaired, and our business may be harmed.
4 |
We expect our quarterly financial results to fluctuate.
We expect our net sales and operating results to vary significantly from quarter to quarter due to a number of factors, including changes in:
● | Demand for our products; and | |
● | Our ability to obtain and retain existing customers; and | |
● | Our ability to develop our carbon nanotubes and hydrogen products; and | |
● | General economic conditions, both domestically and in foreign markets; and | |
● | Advertising and other marketing costs; and | |
● | Costs of producing the carbon nanotubes and hydrogen; and | |
● | Retaining key personnel | |
● | Positive returns on our alternative investments. |
As a result of the variability of these and other factors, our operating results in future quarters may be below the expectations of our stockholders.
Risks Relating to Our Business and Industry
The COVID-19 pandemic may materially and adversely affect our business and operations.
The impact on our business from the outbreak of the COVID-19 coronavirus is unknown at this time and difficult to predict. While vaccines are currently being administered in the United States and other countries throughout the world, at the current time the federal government and local states have instituted restrictions which could adversely affect the Company’s operations. The impact of COVID-19 has also created global supply chain challenges. These challenges create risk in the timing of delivery of kiosks and products. As outbreaks happen in certain areas of the supply chain it will create delays. Having redundancies in these areas to minimize timeline creep is not cost effective. Additionally, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global financial markets may reduce our ability to access capital, which could negatively impact our short-term and long-term liquidity. Other potential adverse effects of COVID-19 might include, for example, our ability to meet projected goals through the continued availability of our workforce; adverse impacts from new laws and regulations affecting our business or increased cyber risks and reliance on technology infrastructure to support our business and operations, including through remote-work protocols. The specific impact that COVID-19 could have on these risks remains uncertain.
We have a history of losses, and we may not become profitable in the future.
The company has incurred losses in all the years since formation. Most of these investments were made in product development, engineering and some sales expenses. We may incur similar net losses for the foreseeable future.
We expect to continue to make significant future expenditures related to the development and expansion of our business, including:
● | investments in our research and development team and in the development of processing organic waste streams into higher value carbon and hydrogen products; | |
● | investments in sales and marketing, including expanding our sales force, increasing our customer base, increasing market awareness of our platform and development of new technologies; | |
● | expanding of our operations and infrastructure, including internationally; and | |
● | hiring additional employees. |
CoroWare is changing its industry direction and business model
It will take 12-18 months to establish a firm direction towards revenue and profitability. The company will need to build out a new corporate leadership team, identify additional acquisition opportunities, and continue to work on and evolve its long-term business plan. The company is also incurring costs associated with general administration, including legal, accounting and other expenses related to being a public company upon completion of this offering.
As a result of these increased expenses, we will have to generate and sustain increased revenue to be profitable in future periods. Further, in future periods, our revenue growth rate could decline, and we may not be able to generate sufficient revenue to offset higher costs and achieve or sustain profitability. If we fail to achieve, sustain or increase profitability, our business and operating results could be adversely affected.
5 |
We have no operating history, which makes it difficult to predict our future results of operations.
The company has been inactive since November 2016, which limits our ability to forecast our future results of operations and subjects us to a number of uncertainties, including our ability to plan for and anticipate future growth. Our historical revenue growth should not be considered indicative of our future performance. Further, in future periods, our revenue growth could slow or our revenue could decline for a number of reasons, including slowing demand for our solutions, increasing competition, a decrease in the growth of our overall market, or our failure, for any reason, to continue to capitalize on growth opportunities. We have also encountered and will encounter risks and uncertainties frequently experienced by growing companies in rapidly changing industries, such as determining appropriate investments of our limited resources, competition from other companies, attracting and retaining customers, hiring, integrating, training and retaining skilled personnel,
Changing global economic conditions may adversely affect our industry, business and results of operations.
Our overall performance depends in part on worldwide economic conditions and trade relations with Asia, Europe and Latin America. These conditions could adversely affect our customers’ ability or willingness to purchase products and services and could adversely affect our operating results. In addition, companies that have competing products may reduce prices which could also reduce our average selling prices and harm our operating results.
If we experience significant fluctuations in our rate of anticipated growth and fail to balance our expenses with our revenue forecasts, our results could be harmed.
Due to the early stages of our business model, the unpredictability of new markets that we enter and unpredictability of future general economic and financial market conditions, we may not be able to accurately forecast our rate of growth. We plan our expense levels and investment on estimates of future revenue and future anticipated rate of growth. We may not be able to adjust our spending quickly enough if the addition of new subscriptions or the renewal rate for existing subscriptions falls short of our expectations.
As a result, we expect that our revenues, operating results and cash flows may fluctuate significantly on a quarterly basis. Our recent revenue growth rates may not be sustainable and may decline in the future. We believe that period-to-period comparisons of our revenues, operating results and cash flows may not be meaningful and should not be relied upon as an indication of future performance.
We may in the future be sued by third parties for alleged infringement of their proprietary rights.
The waste processing, carbon nanotube, and hydrogen production industries are characterized by the existence of a large number of patents, trademarks and copyrights and by frequent litigation based on allegations of infringement or other violations of intellectual property rights. The outcome of any litigation is inherently uncertain. Any intellectual property claims, with or without merit, could be time-consuming and expensive to resolve, could divert management attention from executing our business plan and could require us to change our technology, change our business practices and/or pay monetary damages or enter into short- or long-term royalty or licensing agreements which may not be available in the future at the same terms or at all. Any adverse determination related to intellectual property claims or litigation could be material to our net income or cash flows of a particular quarter or could otherwise adversely affect our operating results.
Our quarterly results can fluctuate and if we fail to meet the expectations of analysts or investors, our stock price and the value of your investment could decline substantially.
We may fail to meet or exceed the expectations of securities analysts or investors, and the market price of our common stock or the trading price of the notes could decline. Moreover, our stock price may be based on expectations of our future performance that may be unrealistic or that may not be met. Some of the important factors that may cause our revenues, operating results and cash flows to fluctuate from quarter to quarter include:
● | our ability to retain and increase sales to existing customers, attract new customers and satisfy our customers’ requirements; | |
● | the number of new employees added; | |
● | changes in our pricing policies whether initiated by us or as a result of intense competition; | |
● | the rate of expansion and productivity of our sales force; |
6 |
● | new product and service introductions by our competitors; | |
● | our success in selling our products and services to large enterprises; | |
● | general economic conditions could adversely affect either our customers’ ability or willingness to purchase additional subscriptions or upgrade their service, or delay a prospective customers’ purchasing decision, or reduce the value of new subscription contracts, or affect renewal rates, all of which could adversely affect our operating results; | |
● | the timing of customer payments and payment defaults by customers; | |
● | costs associated with acquisitions of companies and technologies; | |
● | extraordinary expenses such as litigation or other dispute-related settlement payments; | |
● | the impact of new accounting pronouncements; and |
Many of these factors are not within our control, and the occurrence of one or more of them might cause our operating results to vary widely. As such, we believe that quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our revenues, operating results and cash flows may not be meaningful and should not be relied upon as an indication of future performance.
As we acquire companies or technologies in the future, they could prove difficult to integrate, disrupt our business, dilute stockholder value and adversely affect our operating results and the value of your investment.
As part of our business strategy, we regularly evaluate acquisitions of complementary businesses, joint ventures, services and technologies, and we expect that periodically we will continue to make such investments and acquisitions in the future. Acquisitions and investments involve numerous risks, including:
● | the potential failure to achieve the expected benefits of the combination or acquisition; | |
● | difficulties in and the cost of integrating operations, technologies, services and personnel; | |
● | diversion of financial and managerial resources from existing operations; | |
● | risk of entering new markets in which we have little or no experience; | |
● | potential write-offs of acquired assets or investments; | |
● | potential loss of key employees; | |
● | inability to generate sufficient revenue to offset acquisition or investment costs; | |
● | the inability to maintain relationships with customers and partners of the acquired business; | |
● | potential unknown liabilities associated with the acquired businesses; | |
● | unanticipated expenses related to acquired technology and its integration into existing technology; | |
● | negative impact to our results of operations because of the depreciation and amortization of amounts related to acquired intangible assets, fixed assets and deferred compensation, and the loss of acquired deferred revenue; | |
● | delays in customer purchases due to uncertainty; | |
● | the need to implement controls, procedures and policies appropriate for a public company at companies that prior to the acquisition lacked such controls, procedures and policies; and | |
● | challenges caused by distance, language and cultural differences. |
7 |
In addition, if we finance acquisitions by issuing additional convertible debt or equity securities, our existing stockholders may be diluted which could affect the market price of our stock. Further, if we fail to properly evaluate and execute acquisitions or investments, our business and prospects may be seriously harmed, and the value of your investment may decline.
The market for carbon nanotubes and hydrogen are volatile, and if it develops more slowly than we expect, our business could be harmed.
The market for producing carbon nanotubes and hydrogen is not as mature as the market for packaged enterprise software and hardware, and it is uncertain whether these services will achieve and sustain high levels of demand and market acceptance. If enterprises do not perceive the benefits of carbon nanotubes and hydrogen, then the market for these products and services may not develop at all, or it may develop more slowly than we expect, either of which would significantly adversely affect our operating results. In addition, we may make errors in predicting and reacting to relevant business trends, which could harm our business.
Any failure to protect our intellectual property rights could impair our ability to protect our proprietary technology and our brand.
If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights adequately, our competitors might gain access to our technology, and our business might be harmed. In addition, defending our intellectual property rights might entail significant expense. Any of our trademarks or other intellectual property rights may be challenged by others or invalidated through administrative process or litigation. While we plan to file patents, we may be unable to obtain patent protection for the technology covered in our patent applications. In addition, any patents issued in the future may not provide us with competitive advantages or may be successfully challenged by third parties. Furthermore, legal standards relating to the validity, enforceability and scope of protection of intellectual property rights are uncertain. Effective patent, trademark, copyright and trade secret protection may not be available to us in every country in which our service is available. The laws of some foreign countries may not be as protective of intellectual property rights as those in the U.S., and mechanisms for enforcement of intellectual property rights may be inadequate. Accordingly, despite our efforts, we may be unable to prevent third parties from infringing upon or misappropriating our intellectual property.
We might be required to spend significant resources to monitor and protect our intellectual property rights. We may initiate claims or litigation against third parties for infringement of our proprietary rights or to establish the validity of our proprietary rights. Any litigation, whether or not it is resolved in our favor, could result in significant expense to us and divert the efforts of our technical and management personnel.
If we fail to develop our brands cost-effectively, our business may suffer.
We believe that developing and maintaining awareness of the Carbon Source brand and our other brands in a cost-effective manner is critical to achieving widespread acceptance of our existing and future services and is an important element in attracting new customers. Furthermore, we believe that the importance of brand recognition will increase as competition in our market develops. Successful promotion of our brands will depend largely on the effectiveness of our marketing efforts and on our ability to provide reliable secure and useful services at competitive prices. In the past, our efforts to build our brands have involved significant expense. Brand promotion activities may not yield increased revenue, and even if they do, any increased revenue may not offset the expenses we incurred in building our brands. If we fail to successfully promote and maintain our brands or incur substantial expenses in an unsuccessful attempt to promote and maintain our brands, we may fail to attract enough new customers or retain our existing customers to the extent necessary to realize a sufficient return on our brand-building efforts, and our business could suffer.
8 |
We are dependent on our management team and development and operations personnel, and the loss of one or more key employees or groups could harm our business and prevent us from implementing our business plan in a timely manner.
Our success depends substantially upon the continued services of our executive officers and other key members of management, particularly our Chief Executive Officer. From time to time, there may be changes in our executive management team resulting from the hiring or departure of executives. Such changes in our executive management team may be disruptive to our business. We are also substantially dependent on the continued service of our existing development and operations personnel because of the complexity of our service and technologies. We do not have employment agreements with any of our executive officers, key management, development or operations personnel and, therefore, they could terminate their employment with us at any time. We do not maintain key person life insurance policies on any of our employees. The loss of one or more of our key employees or groups could seriously harm our business.
Our officers and directors hold similar positions at other public companies
Mr. Spencer has been serving as a Director, President and Chief Executive Officer at Deep Green Waste & Recycling (OTCQB:DGWR) since December 4, 2019 and may serve as a director or officer at other public companies in the future.
We may not be successful in our efforts to build a pipeline of product candidates.
A key element of our strategy is to build a pipeline of carbon and hydrogen products that are marketable. Even if we are successful in building a product pipeline, the potential product candidates that we identify may not be suitable for sale to customers for any number of reasons. If our methods of identifying potential product candidates fail to produce a pipeline of potentially viable product candidates, then our success as a business will be dependent on the success of fewer potential product candidates, which introduces risks to our business model and potential limitations to any success we may achieve.
Because competition for our target employees is intense, we may not be able to attract and retain the highly skilled employees we need to support our operations and increasing customer base.
In the technology industry, there is substantial and continuous competition for engineers with high levels of experience in designing, developing and managing software and Internet-related services, as well as competition for sales executives and operations personnel. We may not be successful in attracting and retaining qualified personnel. We expect to experience difficulty in hiring and retaining highly skilled employees with appropriate qualifications. In addition, job candidates and existing employees often consider the value of the stock awards they receive in connection with their employment. If our stock price performs poorly, it may adversely affect our ability to retain highly skilled employees. In addition, since we expense all stock-based compensation, we may periodically change our stock compensation practices, which may include reducing the number of employees eligible for options or reducing the size of equity awards granted per employee. If we fail to attract new personnel or fail to retain and motivate our current personnel, our business and future growth prospects could be severely harmed.
If we fail to comply with environmental, health and safety laws and regulations, we could become subject to fines or penalties or incur costs that could harm our business.
We are subject to numerous environmental, health and safety laws and regulations, including those governing laboratory procedures and the handling, use, storage, treatment and disposal of hazardous materials and wastes. Our operations involve the use of hazardous and flammable materials, including chemicals and biological materials. Our operations also produce hazardous waste products. We generally contract with third parties for the disposal of these materials and wastes. We cannot eliminate the risk of contamination or injury from these materials. In the event of contamination or injury resulting from our use of hazardous materials, we could be held liable for any resulting damages, and any liability could exceed our resources. We also could incur significant costs associated with civil or criminal fines and penalties for failure to comply with such laws and regulations.
We do not maintain workers’ compensation insurance to cover us for costs and expenses, that we may incur due to injuries to our employees resulting from the use of hazardous materials. We do not maintain insurance for environmental liability or toxic tort claims that may be asserted against us in connection with our storage or disposal of biological or hazardous materials.
In addition, we may incur substantial costs in order to comply with current or future environmental, health and safety laws and regulations. These current or future laws and regulations may impair our discovery, preclinical development or production efforts. Our failure to comply with these laws and regulations also may result in substantial fines, penalties or other sanctions.

Our business is subject to changing regulations regarding corporate governance and public disclosure that have increased both our costs and the risk of non-compliance.
We are subject to rules and regulations by various governing bodies, including, for example, the Securities and Exchange Commission, which are charged with the protection of investors and the oversight of companies whose securities are publicly traded. Our efforts to comply with new and changing regulations have resulted in and are likely to continue to result in, increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities.
Moreover, because these laws, regulations and standards are subject to varying interpretations, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidance becomes available. This evolution may result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance matters and additional costs necessitated by ongoing revisions to our disclosure and governance practices. If we fail to address and comply with these regulations and any subsequent changes, our business may be harmed.
Natural disasters and other events beyond our control could materially adversely affect us.
Natural disasters or other catastrophic events may cause damage or disruption to our operations, international commerce and the global economy, and thus could have a strong negative effect on us. Our business operations are subject to interruption by natural disasters, fire, power shortages, pandemics and other events beyond our control. Although we maintain crisis management and disaster response plans, such events could make it difficult or impossible for us to deliver our services to our customers and could decrease demand for our services.
We may be unable to manage growth, which may impact our potential profitability.
Successful implementation of our business strategy requires us to manage our growth. Growth could place an increasing strain on our management and financial resources. To manage growth effectively, we will need to:
● | Establish definitive business strategies, goals and objectives; | |
● | Maintain a system of management controls; and | |
● | Attract and retain qualified personnel, as well as, develop, train and manage management-level and other employees. |
If we fail to manage our growth effectively, our business, financial condition or operating results could be materially harmed, and our stock price may decline.
We may not be able to compete successfully with other established companies offering the same or similar services and, as a result, we may not achieve our projected revenue and user targets.
If we are unable to compete successfully with other businesses in our existing market, we may not achieve our projected revenue and/or targets. We compete with both start-up and established financial and technology companies. Compared to our business, some of our competitors may have greater financial and other resources, have been in business longer, have greater name recognition and be better established in the carbon nanotubes and hydrogen sectors.

Failure to manage our rapid growth effectively could increase our expenses, decrease our revenue, and prevent us from implementing our business strategy.
After funding, we expect to experience a period of rapid growth. To manage our anticipated future growth effectively, we must continue to maintain, and may need to enhance, our information technology infrastructure and financial and accounting systems and controls, as well as manage expanded operations in geographically distributed locations. We also must attract, train, and retain a significant number of qualified sales and marketing personnel, professional services personnel, software engineers, technical personnel, and management personnel. Failure to manage our rapid growth effectively could lead us to over-invest or under-invest in technology and operations; result in weaknesses in our infrastructure, systems, or controls; give rise to operational mistakes, losses, or loss of productivity or business opportunities; and result in loss of employees and reduced productivity of remaining employees. Our growth could require significant capital expenditures and may divert financial resources and management attention from other projects, such as the development of new services. If our management is unable to effectively manage our growth, our expenses may increase more than expected, our revenue could decline or may grow more slowly than expected, and we may be unable to implement our business strategy.
We depend on key employees and face competition in hiring and retaining qualified employees.
Our employees are vital to our success, and our key management and other employees are difficult to replace. We currently do not have employment contracts with our key employees. We may not be able to retain highly qualified employees in the future which could adversely affect our business.
Our lack of adequate D&O insurance may also make it difficult for us to retain and attract talented and skilled directors and officers.
We may in the future be subject to additional litigation, including potential class action and stockholder derivative actions. Risks associated with legal liability are difficult to assess and quantify, and their existence and magnitude can remain unknown for significant periods of time. To date, we have not obtained directors and officers liability (“D&O”) insurance. While neither Nevada law nor our Articles of Incorporation or bylaws require us to indemnify or advance expenses to our officers and directors involved in such a legal action, we have entered into an indemnification agreement with our President and intend to enter into similar agreements with other officers and directors in the future. Without adequate D&O insurance, the amounts we would pay to indemnify our officers and directors should they be subject to legal action based on their service to the Company could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity. Furthermore, our lack of adequate D&O insurance may make it difficult for us to retain and attract talented and skilled directors and officers, which could adversely affect our business.
We may experience significant losses from operations.
Even if we do generate operating income in one or more quarters in the future, subsequent developments in our industry, customer base, business or cost structure or an event such as significant litigation or a significant transaction may cause us to again experience operating losses. We may not become profitable for the long-term, or even for any quarter.
Because competition for our target employees is intense, we may not be able to attract and retain the highly skilled employees we need to support our planned growth.
To continue to execute on our growth plan, we must attract and retain highly qualified personnel. Competition for these personnel is intense, especially for senior sales executives and engineers with high levels of experience in designing and developing software and Internet-related services. We may not be successful in attracting and retaining qualified personnel. We have from time to time in the past experienced, and we expect to continue to experience in the future, difficulty in hiring and retaining highly skilled employees with appropriate qualifications. Many of the companies with which we compete for experienced personnel have greater resources than we have. In addition, in making employment decisions, particularly in the Internet and high-technology industries, job candidates often consider the value of the equity awards they are to receive in connection with their employment. Volatility in the price of our stock or failure to obtain stockholder approval for increases in the number of shares available for grant under our equity plans may, therefore, adversely affect our ability to attract or retain key employees. Furthermore, the requirements to expense equity awards may discourage us from granting the size or type of equity awards that job candidates require to join our company. If we fail to attract new personnel or fail to retain and motivate our current personnel, our business and future growth prospects could be severely harmed.
11 |
We may fail to realize the anticipated benefits of any acquisition.
The success of any acquisition will depend on, among other things, our ability to combine our businesses in a manner that does not materially disrupt existing relationships and that allows us to achieve operational synergies and capitalize on the increased brand recognition and customer base of the combined company. If we are not able to achieve these objectives, the anticipated benefits of the acquisition may not be realized fully or at all or may take longer to realize than expected. In particular, the acquisition may not be accretive or accelerate sales in near or long term.
The integration process could result in the loss of key employees; the disruption of our ongoing businesses; or inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures, or policies that could adversely affect our ability to maintain relationships with third parties and employees or to achieve the anticipated benefits of the acquisition. Integration efforts between the two companies will also divert management’s attention from our core business and other opportunities that could have been beneficial to our shareholders. An inability to realize the full extent of, or any of, the anticipated benefits of the acquisition, as well as any delays encountered in the integration process, could have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations, which may affect the value of the shares of our common stock after the completion of the acquisition.
Further, the actual integration may result in additional and unforeseen expenses. Operational improvements and actual cost synergies, if achieved at all, may be lower than we expect and may take longer to achieve than we anticipate. If we are not able to adequately address these challenges, we may be unable to realize the anticipated benefits of the integration of any acquisition.

General Business Risks
Our business and operations may experience rapid growth. If we fail to manage our growth, our business and operating results could be harmed and we may have to incur significant expenditures to address the additional operational and control requirements of this growth.
We may experience rapid growth in our sales and operations, which may place significant demands on our management, operational and financial infrastructure. If we do not manage our growth, the quality of our products and services could suffer, which could negatively affect our brand and operating results. To manage this growth, we will need to continue to improve our operational, financial and management controls and our reporting systems and procedures. These systems enhancements and improvements will require significant capital expenditures and allocation of valuable management resources. If the improvements are not implemented successfully, our ability to manage our growth will be impaired and we may have to make significant additional expenditures to address these issues, which could harm our financial position. The required improvements may include: Enhancing our information and communication systems to attempt to optimize proper service to our customers, and Enhancing systems of internal controls to ensure timely and accurate reporting of all of our operations
If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud. As a result, current and potential stockholders could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which would harm our business and the trading price of our stock.
Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our brand and operating results could be harmed. We may in the future discover areas of our internal controls that need improvement. We cannot be certain that any measures we implement will ensure that we achieve and maintain adequate controls over our financial processes and reporting in the future. Any failure to implement required new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation, could harm our operating results or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations. Inferior internal controls could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our stock.
We have no operating history under our new business model utilizing carbon nanotubes or hydrogen technology in an emerging and rapidly evolving market. This makes it difficult to evaluate our future prospects and may increase the risk that we will not be successful.
We have no operating history under our new business model utilizing carbon nanotubes or hydrogen technology. You must consider our business and prospects in light of the risks and difficulties we will encounter as an early-stage company in a new and rapidly evolving market. We may not be able to successfully address these risks and difficulties, which could materially harm our business and operating results.
We cannot be certain that additional financing will be available on reasonable terms when required, or at all.
From time to time, we may need additional financing. Our ability to obtain additional financing, if and when required, will depend on investor demand, our operating performance, the condition of the capital markets, and other factors. We cannot assure you that additional financing will be available to us on favorable terms when required, or at all. We may need to raise additional funds through the issuance of equity, equity-linked or debt securities, those securities may have rights, preferences, or privileges senior to the rights of our Common Stock, and our existing stockholders may experience dilution.

Rapid technological changes.
The industries in which the Company intends to compete with are subject to rapid technological changes. No assurances can be given that the technological advantages which may be enjoyed by the Company in respect of their technologies cannot or will not be overcome by technological advances in the respective industries rendering the Company’s technologies obsolete or non-competitive.
Lack of indications of product acceptability.
The success of the Company will be dependent upon its ability to develop commercially acceptable products and to sell such products in quantities sufficient to yield profitable results. To date, the Company has received no indications of the commercial acceptability of any of its proposed products. Accordingly, the Company cannot predict whether its products can be marketed and sold in a commercial manner.
Reliance upon third parties.
The Company does not intend on maintaining a significant technical staff nor does it intend on manufacturing its products. Rather it will rely heavily on consultants, contractors, and manufacturers to design, develop and manufacture its products. Accordingly, there is no assurance that such third parties will be available when needed at affordable prices.
Protection of intellectual property.
The success of the Company will be dependent, in part, upon the protection of its various proprietary technologies from competitive use. Certain of its technologies are the subject of various patents in varying jurisdictions. In addition to the patent applications, the Company relies on a combination of trade secrets, nondisclosure agreements and other contractual provisions to protect its intellectual property rights. Nevertheless, these measures may be inadequate to safeguard the Company’s underlying technologies. If these measures do not protect the intellectual property rights, third parties could use the Company’s technologies, and its ability to compete in the market would be reduced significantly.
In the future, the Company may be required to protect or enforce its patents and patent rights through patent litigation against third parties, such as infringement suits or interference proceedings. These lawsuits could be expensive, take significant time, and could divert management’s attention from other business concerns. These actions could put the Company’s patents at risk of being invalidated or interpreted narrowly, and any patent applications at risk of not issuing. In defense of any such action, these third parties may assert claims against the Company. The Company cannot provide any assurance that it will have sufficient funds to vigorously prosecute any patent litigation, that it will prevail in any of these suits, or that the damages or other remedies awarded, if any, will be commercially valuable. During the course of these suits, there may be public announcements of the results of hearings, motions and other interim proceedings or developments in the litigation, which could result in the negative perception by investors, which could cause the price of the Company’s common stock to decline dramatically.
Risks Related to this Offering
We are a shell company pursuant to Rule 405 of the Securities Act. This may impact our ability to attract additional capital.
We have no assets and our operations appear to have been primarily organizational since we discontinued previous operations in 2016. We are a shell company pursuant to Rule 405 of the Securities Act. The consequences of shell company status may affect our ability attract additional capital. Under SEC Rule 144 restricted and control securities may be resold in reliance on Rule 144 unless and until the company has ceased to be a shell company, is subject to the reporting requirements of section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, has filed all reports and other materials required to be filed by section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, during the preceding 12 months and has filed current “Form 10 information” with the SEC reflecting its status as an entity. When these conditions are satisfied, then those securities may be sold subject to the requirements Rule 144 after one year has elapsed from the date that the issuer filed “Form 10 information” with the SEC.
The unavailability of Rule 144 may affect our ability to attract additional capital as investors may not be willing to purchase restricted or control securities unless they can sell under Rule 144.
There has been a limited public market for our Common Stock prior to this Offering, and an active market in which investors can resell their shares may not develop.
Prior to this Offering, there has been a limited public market for our Common Stock. We cannot predict the extent to which an active market for our Common Stock will develop or be sustained after this Offering, or how the development of such a market might affect the market price of our Common Stock. The initial offering price of our Common Stock in this Offering will be agreed between us and the underwriters based on a number of factors, including market conditions in effect at the time of the Offering, and it may not be in any way indicative of the price at which our shares will trade following the completion of this Offering. Investors may not be able to resell their shares at or above the initial offering price.
Investors in this Offering will experience immediate and substantial dilution.
If all of the shares offered hereby are sold, investors in this Offering will own 41.49% of the then outstanding shares of all classes of common stock, resulting in a dilution of $0.0042 per share to investors in this offering. Please see “Dilution” for further information.

The market price of our Common Stock may fluctuate, and you could lose all or part of your investment.
The offering price for our Common Stock will be set by us based on a number of factors and may not be indicative of prices that will prevail on OTC Markets “PINK” or elsewhere following this Offering. The price of our Common Stock may decline following this Offering. The stock market in general, and the market price of our Common Stock will likely be subject to fluctuation, whether due to, or irrespective of, our operating results, financial condition and prospects.
Our financial performance, our industry’s overall performance, changing consumer preferences, technologies and advertiser requirements, government regulatory action, tax laws and market conditions in general could have a significant impact on the future market price of our Common Stock. Some of the other factors that could negatively affect our share price or result in fluctuations in our share price include:
● | actual or anticipated variations in our periodic operating results; |
● | changes in earnings estimates; |
● | changes in market valuations of similar companies; |
● | actions or announcements by our competitors; |
● | adverse market reaction to any increased indebtedness we may incur in the future; |
● | additions or departures of key personnel; |
● | actions by stockholders; |
● | speculation in the press or investment community; and |
● | our intentions and ability to list our Common Stock on a national securities exchange and our subsequent ability to maintain such listing. |
We do not expect to declare or pay dividends in the foreseeable future.
We do not expect to declare or pay dividends in the foreseeable future, as we anticipate that we will invest future earnings in the development and growth of our business. Therefore, holders of our Common Stock will not receive any return on their investment unless they sell their securities, and holders may be unable to sell their securities on favorable terms or at all.
Our financial statements are unaudited and have not been reviewed by an independent accountant.
Management has prepared the Company’s financial statements. These statements have not been audited. No independent accountant has reviewed these financial statements.
Because we do not have an audit or compensation committee, shareholders will have to rely on our directors, none of whom is not independent, to perform these functions.
We do not have an audit or compensation committee comprised of an independent director. Indeed, we do not have any audit or compensation committee. The Board of Directors performs these functions as a whole. No members of the Board of Directors are an independent director. Thus, there is a potential conflict in that board members who are also part of management will participate in discussions concerning management compensation and audit issues that may affect management decisions.
Because we lack certain internal controls over financial reporting in that we do not have an audit committee and our Board of Directors has no technical knowledge of U.S. GAAP and internal control of financial reporting and relies upon the Company’s financial personnel to advise the Board on such matters, we are subject to increased risk related to financial statement disclosures.
We lack certain internal controls over financial reporting in that we do not have an audit committee and our Board of Directors has no technical knowledge of U.S. GAAP and internal control of financial reporting and relies upon the Company’s financial personnel to advise the Board on such matters. Accordingly, we are subject to increased risk related to financial statement disclosures.

Our sole officer and director holds a significant percentage of our outstanding voting securities, which could reduce the ability of minority shareholders to effect certain corporate actions.
Our sole officer and director, Lloyd Spencer, is the beneficial owner of 60,606,335 shares of common stock, 60,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock and 25,000 shares of Series G Preferred Stock, which controls 90.32% of the voting securities prior to the Offering and 84.50% of our outstanding voting securities after the Offering, assuming all 10,000,000,000 shares of common stock in this Offering are sold. Mr. Spencer is the owner of 100% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Series G Preferred stock. The Company’s Series G Preferred stock has voting rights equal to 5,000,000 votes per each one share. As such, Mr. Spencer has voting rights equal to 125,000,000,000 shares of common stock and thus control of any item brought before shareholders requiring a vote. As a result of this ownership, Mr. Spencer possesses and can continue to possess significant influence and can elect and can continue to elect a majority of our Board of Directors and authorize or prevent proposed significant corporate transactions. Mr. Spencer’s ownership and control may also have the effect of delaying or preventing a future change in control, impeding a merger, consolidation, takeover or other business combination or discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer.
Upon completion of this offering, we will not be subject to the current and periodic reporting requirements.
As a Regulation A, Tier 1 issuer, we will not be subject to the periodic and current reporting requirements under Rule 257(b) of Regulation A.

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements involves the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions, and our consolidated financial statements may be materially affected if such estimates, judgments or assumptions prove to be inaccurate.
Financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) typically require the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts. Often, different estimates, judgments and assumptions could reasonably be used that would have a material effect on such financial statements, and changes in these estimates, judgments and assumptions may occur from period to period over time. Significant areas of accounting requiring the application of management’s judgment include, but are not limited to, determining the fair value of assets and the timing and amount of cash flows from assets. These estimates, judgments and assumptions are inherently uncertain and, if our estimates were to prove to be wrong, we would face the risk that charges to income or other financial statement changes or adjustments would be required. Any such charges or changes could harm our business, including our financial condition and results of operations and the price of our securities. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for a discussion of the accounting estimates, judgments and assumptions that we believe are the most critical to an understanding of our consolidated financial statements and our business.
If securities industry analysts do not publish research reports on us, or publish unfavorable reports on us, then the market price and market trading volume of our Common Stock could be negatively affected.
Any trading market for our Common Stock will be influenced in part by any research reports that securities industry analysts publish about us. We do not currently have and may never obtain research coverage by securities industry analysts. If no securities industry analysts commence coverage of us, the market price and market trading volume of our Common Stock could be negatively affected. In the event we are covered by analysts, and one or more of such analysts downgrade our securities, or otherwise reports on us unfavorably, or discontinues coverage or us, the market price and market trading volume of our Common Stock could be negatively affected.
Future issuances of our Common Stock or securities convertible into our Common Stock, or the expiration of lock-up agreements that restrict the issuance of new Common Stock or the trading of outstanding stock, could cause the market price of our Common Stock to decline and would result in the dilution of your shareholding.
Future issuances of our Common Stock or securities convertible into our Common Stock, and/or conversion of the Notes convertible into Common Stock, or the expiration of lock-up agreements that restrict the sale of Common Stock by selling shareholders, or the trading of outstanding stock, could cause the market price of our Common Stock to decline. We cannot predict the effect, if any, of the exercise of conversion of the Notes into Common Stock or other future issuances of our Common Stock or securities convertible into our Common Stock, or the future expirations of lock-up agreements, on the price of our Common Stock. In all events, future issuances of our Common Stock would result in the dilution of your shareholding. In addition, the perception that locked-up parties will sell their securities when the lock-ups expire, could adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock.
Our shares are subject to the penny stock rules, making it more difficult to trade our shares.
The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or authorized for quotation on certain automated quotation systems, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system. If the price of our Common Stock is less than $5.00, our Common Stock will be deemed a penny stock. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, before a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document containing specified information. In addition, the penny stock rules require that before effecting any transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, a broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive (i) the purchaser’s written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement; (ii) a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks; and (iii) a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our Common Stock, and therefore stockholders may have difficulty selling their shares.

Our management has broad discretion as to the use of certain of the net proceeds from this Offering.
We intend to use up to $920,000 of the net proceeds from this Offering (if we sell all of the shares being offered) for working capital and other general corporate purposes. However, we cannot specify with certainty the particular uses of such proceeds. Our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds designated for use as working capital or for other general corporate purposes. Accordingly, you will have to rely upon the judgment of our management with respect to the use of these proceeds. Our management may spend a portion or all of the net proceeds from this Offering in ways that holders of our Common Stock may not desire or that may not yield a significant return or any return at all. The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could harm our business. Pending their use, we may also invest the net proceeds from this Offering in a manner that does not produce income or that loses value. Please see “Use of Proceeds” below for more information.
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Offering Circular contains various “forward-looking statements.” You can identify forward-looking statements by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “should,” “seeks,” “approximately,” “intends,” “plans,” “projects,” “estimates” or “anticipates” or the negative of these words and phrases or similar words or phrases. You can also identify forward-looking statements by discussions of strategy, plans or intentions. These statements may be impacted by a number of risks and uncertainties.
The forward-looking statements are based on our beliefs, assumptions and expectations of our future performance taking into account all information currently available to us. These beliefs, assumptions and expectations are subject to risks and uncertainties and can change as a result of many possible events or factors, not all of which are known to us. If a change occurs, our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations may vary materially from those expressed in our forward-looking statements. You should carefully consider these risks before you make an investment decision with respect to our Securities. For a further discussion of these and other factors that could impact our future results, performance or transactions, see the section entitled “Risk Factors.”
If we sell all of the shares being offered, our net proceeds (after our estimated offering expenses of $500,000) will be $4,500,000. We will use these net proceeds for:

The precise amounts that we will devote to each of the foregoing items, and the timing of expenditures, will vary depending on numerous factors.
As indicated in the table above, if we sell only 25%, 50% or 75% of the shares offered for sale in this Offering, we would expect to use the resulting net proceeds for the same purposes as we would use the net proceeds from a sale of 100% of the shares, and in approximately the same proportions, until such time as such use of proceeds would leave us without working capital reserve. At that point we would expect to modify our use of proceeds by limiting our expansion, leaving us with the working capital reserve indicated.
The expected use of net proceeds from this Offering represents our intentions based upon our current plans and business conditions, which could change in the future as our plans and business conditions evolve and change. The amounts and timing of our actual expenditures, specifically with respect to working capital, may vary significantly depending on numerous factors. The precise amounts that we will devote to each of the foregoing items, and the timing of expenditures, will vary depending on numerous factors. As a result, our management will retain broad discretion over the allocation of the net proceeds from this Offering.
In the event we do not sell all of the shares being offered, we may seek additional financing from other sources in order to support the intended use of proceeds indicated above. If we secure additional equity funding, investors in this Offering would be diluted. In all events, there can be no assurance that additional financing would be available to us when wanted or needed and, if available, on terms acceptable to us.
If you purchase shares in this Offering, your ownership interest in our Common Stock will be diluted immediately, to the extent of the difference between the price to the public charged for each share in this Offering and the net tangible book value per share of our Common Stock after this Offering.
Our historical net tangible book value as of June 30, 2021 was $(93,793,312) or $(0.0067) per then-outstanding share of our Common Stock. Historical net tangible book value per share equals the amount of our total tangible assets less total liabilities, divided by the total number of shares of our Common Stock outstanding, all as of the date specified.

The following table illustrates the per share dilution to new investors discussed above, assuming the sale of, respectively, 100%, 50% and 25% of the shares offered for sale in this Offering (after deducting estimated offering expenses of $500,000, $250,000 and $125,000, respectively):

Future Dilution
Dilution may also result from future actions by our Company, and specifically from any increase in the number of shares of the Company’s capital stock outstanding resulting from a stock offering (such as a public offering, a crowdfunding round, a venture capital round or an angel investment), employees exercising stock options, or conversion of certain instruments (such as convertible bonds, preferred shares or warrants) into stock.
If we decide to issue more shares, an investor could experience value dilution, with each share being worth less than before, and control dilution, with the total percentage an investor owns being less than before. There may also be earnings dilution, with a reduction in the amount earned per share (though this typically occurs only if we offer dividends, and most early-stage companies are unlikely to offer dividends, preferring to invest any earnings into the Company).
Dilution might also happen upon conversion of convertible notes into shares. Typically, the terms of convertible notes issued by early-stage companies provide that in the event of another round of financing, the holders of the convertible notes get to convert their notes into equity at a “discount” to the price paid by the new investors, i.e., they get more shares than the new investors would for the same price. Additionally, convertible notes may have a “price cap” on the conversion price, which effectively acts as a share price ceiling. Either way, the holders of the convertible notes get more shares for their money than new investors. In the event that the financing is a “down round” the holders of the convertible notes will dilute existing equity holders, and even more than the new investors do, because they get more shares for their money. Investors should pay careful attention to the amount of convertible notes that the company has issued (and may issue in the future), and the terms of those notes.
If you are making an investment expecting to own a certain percentage of our Company or expecting each share to hold a certain amount of value, it’s important to realize how the value of those shares can decrease by actions taken by us. Dilution can make drastic changes to the value of each share, ownership percentage, voting control, and earnings per share.

At June 30, 2021, we had current assets of $-, current liabilities of $89,823,012, a working capital deficit of $89,823,012 and an accumulated deficit of $122,851,060.

We presently have limited and expensive available credit, and do not have bank financing or other external sources of liquidity. We will need to obtain additional capital in order to expand operations and become profitable. In order to obtain capital, we may need to sell additional shares of our common stock or borrow funds from private lenders. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining additional funding. We will still need additional capital in order to continue operations until we are able to achieve positive operating cash flow. Additional capital is being sought, but we cannot guarantee that we will be able to obtain such investments. Financing transactions may include the issuance of equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities, or other financing mechanisms. However, even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses, fail to collect significant amounts owed to us, or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek alternative financing. Furthermore, if we issue additional equity or debt securities, stockholders may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our common stock. If additional financing is not available or is not available on acceptable terms, we will have to curtail our operations.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, results of operations, liquidity, or capital expenditures.

Derivative financial instruments, as defined in FASB ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”), consist of financial instruments or other contracts that contain a notional amount and one or more underlying variables (e.g. interest rate, security price or other variable), require no initial net investment and permit net settlement. The caption Derivative Liability consists of (i) the fair values associated with derivative features embedded in various convertible note financings and (ii) the fair values of the detachable warrants that were issued in connection with those financing arrangements.
We generally do not use derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to cash-flow, market or foreign-currency risks. However, we have entered into certain other financial instruments and contracts, such as debt financing arrangements and freestanding warrants with features that are either (i) not afforded equity classification, (ii) embody risks not clearly and closely related to host contracts, or (iii) may be net-cash settled by the counterparty. As required by ASC 815, these instruments are required to be carried as derivative liabilities, at fair value, in our financial statements.
25 |
We estimate fair values of derivative financial instruments using various techniques (and combinations thereof) that are considered to be consistent with the objective of measuring fair values. In selecting the appropriate technique, we consider, among other factors, the nature of the instrument, the market risks that it embodies and the expected means of settlement. For less complex derivative instruments, such as free-standing warrants, we generally use the Black-Scholes-Merton option valuation technique because it embodies all of the requisite assumptions (including trading volatility, estimated terms and risk-free rates) necessary to value these instruments. For complex derivative instruments, such as embedded conversion options, we generally use the Flexible Monte Carlo valuation technique because it embodies all of the requisite assumptions (including credit risk, interest-rate risk and exercise/conversion behaviors) that are necessary to value these more complex instruments. Estimating fair values of derivative financial instruments requires the development of significant and subjective estimates that may, and are likely to, change over the duration of the instrument with related changes in internal and external market factors. In addition, option-based techniques are highly volatile and sensitive to changes in the trading market price of our common stock, which has a high-historical volatility. Since derivative financial instruments are initially and subsequently carried at fair values, our income will reflect the volatility in these estimate and assumption changes.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
In the ordinary course of our business, we are not exposed to market risk of the sort that may arise from changes in interest rates or foreign currency exchange rates, or that may otherwise arise from transactions in derivatives.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company’s significant estimates and assumptions include the fair value of the Company’s common stock, stock-based compensation, the recoverability and useful lives of long-lived assets, and the valuation allowance relating to the Company’s deferred tax assets.
Contingencies
Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company’s management, in consultation with its legal counsel as appropriate, assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company, in consultation with legal counsel, evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims, as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein. If the assessment of a contingency indicates it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates a potentially material loss contingency is not probable, but is reasonably possible, or is probable, but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss, if determinable and material, would be disclosed. Loss contingencies considered remote are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantees would be disclosed.
Upon completion of this offering, we will not be subject to current and periodic reporting requirements. As a Regulation A, Tier 1 issuer, we will not be subject to the periodic and current reporting requirements under Rule 257(b) of Regulation A.

Competition
CoroWare is pursuing a business strategy that is similar to other companies, but CoroWare will be using proprietary and patented technologies that are unique in the industry. Nevertheless, there are many other companies that are already producing carbon nanotubes, including:
● | Advanced Material Development | |
● | Carbon Solutions, Inc. | |
● | Cnano Technology. | |
● | First Graphene | |
● | Hyperion Catalysis | |
● | Nanocyl S.A. | |
● | NanoIntegris | |
● | Raymor Nanotech | |
● | Tuball |
Our technologies may also allow us to compete with producers of grey, blue and green hydrogen gas. When utilizing electrical energy from sustainable sources, our hydrogen gas can be considered as green hydrogen and therefore sustainable.
As with the carbon nanotubes, there are many other companies that are already producing hydrogen gas, including:
● | PowerTap Hydrogen Capital Corp |
● | Sunhydrogen inc. |
● | Ways2H |
● | SGH2 |
● | Standard Hydrogen Corp |
● | Powerhouse Energygroup |
● | Hydrogen Utopia International |
● | Japan Blue Energy |
● | Wabash Valley Resources |
● | Raven SR |
● | Bayotech |
● | Electro Active |
Our potential competitors may have greater resources, better access to capital, longer histories, more intellectual property and lower cost operations.
They may secure better terms during the investment negotiation process, make strategic decisions more quickly than us and devote more capital to better performing investments than we do.
Our competitors may also enter into business combinations or alliances that strengthen their competitive positions.
Market opportunity
An estimated 8.3 billion metric tonnes of plastic waste have been generated to date, with a mere 9% of that volume being recycled, 12% incinerated and 79% going to landfills. In 2016, the world generated 242 million tonnes of plastic waste—12 percent of all municipal solid waste, according to The World Bank. This plastic waste primarily originated from three regions—57 million tonnes from East Asia and the Pacific, 45 million tonnes from Europe and Central Asia, and 35 million tonnes from North America.
Each year an additional 300 million tonnes of plastic waste are produced, which is projected to continue. According to the original study published in Science Advances, by 2050, there will be 12 billion metric tons of plastic in landfills.
Lack of proper waste management results in plastic waste reaching earth’s oceans. Several organizations are monitoring the abundance of plastic debris in rivers and oceans. Researchers, universities, and non-profit initiatives all conclude that plastic waste form a hazard for marine wildlife and should be captured, preferably before reaching earth’s oceans. Organizations such as The Ocean Cleanup are making great progress in capturing a portion of the plastic waste streams; however, processing this captured plastic is still a challenge.
Over the past few years, several organizations introduced methods to use plastic waste as a feedstock to produce high value materials. Some organizations offer plastic waste recycling solutions that transform unsorted, unwashed waste plastic into liquid fuels; however, these solutions do not address the worldwide objective of reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
The gasification of plastic waste for the synthetic gas (syngas) production is a widely used method to upcycle plastic waste. Several studies have shown that working under high temperatures are an important factor to obtain the gasses, as temperature affects the yield and the type of gasses obtained. A 2020 journal presented on the 6th International Conference on Energy and Environmental Research revealed the need for high temperatures, and more importantly it revealed that only a limited range of plastics could be used to generate high value synthetic gasses.
Pyrolysis is a common technique used to convert plastic and organic wastes into energy, in the form of solid, liquid, and gaseous fuels. Different catalysts are used to improve the pyrolysis process and improve efficiency. However, catalysts are expensive, thus making the overall process less profitable. Moreover, this process is also energy-intensive, and the resulting oil product requires additional energy to be further refined. Pyrolysis also requires emission treatment technologies since some gasses produced through this method are toxic.
Working cooperatively with university and industry partners, CoroWare plans to implement new industrial processes that selectively break carbon-hydrogen bonds in plastics waste using inexpensive, environmentally friendly iron-based catalysts to yield high purity hydrogen and high value carbons. Using these proven proprietary technologies, collected plastic waste material can be upcycled to high value products such as hydrogen gas, graphene and carbon nanotubes.
The global market for hydrogen currently stands at approximately 100 billion USD and is growing at a rate of 3-5% per annum. In addition, the market for hydrogen fuel cells is currently valued at 3 billion USD but is growing at 30-50% per annum.
According to Deloitte Consulting, hydrogen is projected to play a key role in the future of energy. Business leaders worldwide are moving their attention to creating a hydrogen infrastructure to benefit from the opportunities. Hydrogen is expected to be applied first in sectors that are under pressure to decarbonize, however current production methods to produce hydrogen on a large scale are not carbon neutral nor inexpensive. The demand for green hydrogen is growing as people recognize the potential. Plastic waste is a cheap and abundant feedstock that will allow the company to scale quickly and produce hydrogen gas for a competitive price.
The market for carbon products is approximately 30 billion USD, with a growth rate of over 20% in higher value segments. The Carbon Nanotube (CNT) market is estimated to grow up to USD 7 billion by 2026; the number one growth driver is the increasing need for high performance batteries for the electric vehicle market. Carbon Nanotubes can be used for improving electrical conduction and reinforcing materials used in the automotive, aviation, medical, and construction industries.

Growth Issues
Scalability
CoroWare has been and will continue to partner with leading edge materials research taking place at Oxford University and other universities that are developing unique solutions for processing organic waste into high value hydrogen and carbon products.
Insufficient Capital
Currently, CoroWare is confronted with the need to attract and retain a consistent investment source in order to grow our operations rapidly. If CoroWare is not funded properly, it will prevent us from capturing a significant portion of the market. To establish a first mover advantage in this space, CoroWare is seeking funding from the capital markets which may include debt and equity offerings.
Production Lead Time
We anticipate that the lead time for the development of our first patented solution that will be commercially operational will be 18 months. This reflects equipment ordering, installation, development, testing, operational readiness, and market readiness.
Marketing Strategy
CoroWare shall market its hydrogen and carbon products to industrial customers that are developing higher capacity electrochemical energy storage, and construction customers that are seeking higher strength concrete materials, and tire manufacturers that are developing lower-resistance and longer wear tires for automobiles and trucks.
CoroWare shall market its carbon nanotube products to industrial customers that are developing higher capacity electrochemical energy storage, and construction customers that are seeking higher strength concrete materials, and tire manufacturers that are developing lower-resistance and longer wear tires for automobiles and trucks. The Company will implement a direct sales and marketing strategy to reach potential customers and generate revenues.
Seasonality
We do not expect any seasonality in our business.
Employees
As of June 30, 2021, we had one (1) part time employee that served as the Company’s sole officer and director. Our employee is not represented by a union. We consider relations with our employee to be positive and productive.
Legal Proceedings
We may from time to time be involved in various claims and legal proceedings of a nature we believe are normal and incidental to temporary employee staffing business. These matters may include product liability, intellectual property, employment, personal injury cause by our employees, and other general claims. We will accrue for contingent liabilities when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. We are not presently a party to any legal proceedings that, in the opinion of our management, are likely to have a material adverse effect on our business. Regardless of outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
To the best of our knowledge, from January 1, 2019 to June 30, 2021, other than as set forth above, there were no material transactions, or series of similar transactions, or any currently proposed transactions, or series of similar transactions, to which we were or are to be a party, in which the amount involved exceeds $120,000, and in which any director or executive officer, or any security holder who is known by us to own of record or beneficially more than 5% of any class of our Common Stock, or any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons, has an interest (other than compensation to our officers and directors in the ordinary course of business).
Statement of Policy
We have adopted a related-party transactions policy under which our executive officers, directors, nominees for election as a director, beneficial owners of more than 5% of any class of our Common Stock, and any members of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons are not permitted to enter into a related-party transaction with us without the consent of our audit committee. If the related party is, or is associated with, a member of our audit committee, the transaction must be reviewed and approved by another independent body of our Board of Directors, such as our governance committee. Any request for us to enter into a transaction with a related party in which the amount involved exceeds $120,000 and such party would have a direct or indirect interest must first be presented to our audit committee for review, consideration and approval. If advance approval of a related-party transaction was not feasible or was not obtained, the related-party transaction must be submitted to the audit committee as soon as reasonably practicable, at which time the audit committee shall consider whether to ratify and continue, amend and ratify, or terminate or rescind such related-party transaction. All of the transactions described above were reviewed and considered by, and were entered into with the approval of, or ratification by, our Board of Directors.
The following table sets forth the beneficial ownership of our Common Stock as of September 15, 2021 by:
● | each shareholder known by us to beneficially own more than 5% of our outstanding Common Stock; | |
● | each of our directors; | |
● | each of our named executive officers; and | |
● | all of our directors and executive officers as a group. |
We have determined beneficial ownership in accordance with the rules of the SEC. These rules generally provide that a person is the beneficial owner of securities if such person has or shares the power to vote or direct the voting of securities, or to dispose or direct the disposition of securities. A security holder is also deemed to be, as of any date, the beneficial owner of all securities that such security holder has the right to acquire within 60 days after such date through (i) the exercise of any option or warrant, (ii) the conversion of a security, (iii) the power to revoke a trust, discretionary account or similar arrangement, or (iv) the automatic termination of a trust, discretionary account or similar arrangement. Except as disclosed in the footnotes to this table and subject to applicable community property laws, we believe that each person identified in the table has sole voting and investment power over all of the shares shown opposite such person’s name.
Percentage ownership in the following table is based on 14,102,057,165 shares of common stock outstanding as of September 15, 2021 and excludes:
● | An indeterminate number of shares of common stock to be issued upon the conversion of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock; | |
● | An indeterminate number of shares of common stock to be issued upon the conversion of the Company’s Series D Preferred Stock; | |
● | An indeterminate number of shares of common stock to be issued upon the conversion of the Company’s Series E Preferred Stock; | |

Delaware Anti-Takeover Law
Certain provisions of our charter documents and Delaware law could have an anti-takeover effect and could delay, discourage or prevent a tender offer or takeover attempt that a stockholder might consider to be in its best interests, including attempts that might otherwise result in a premium being paid over the market price of our common stock.
Our certificate of incorporation and by-laws contain provisions that could have the effect of delaying or preventing changes in control or changes in our management without the consent of our board of directors, including, among other things:
● | no cumulative voting in the election of directors, which limits the ability of minority stockholders to elect director candidates; |
the ability of our board of directors to issue shares of preferred stock and to determine the price and other terms of those shares, including preferences and voting rights, without stockholder approval, which could be used to significantly dilute the ownership of a hostile acquirer; | |
● | the exclusive right of our board of directors to elect a director to fill a vacancy created by the expansion of our board of directors or the resignation, death or removal of a director, which prevents stockholders from being able to fill vacancies on our board of directors; |
● | a prohibition on stockholder action by written consent, which forces stockholder action to be taken at an annual or special meeting of our stockholders; |
● | the requirement that a special meeting of stockholders may be called only by a majority vote of our board of directors or by stockholders holding shares of our common stock representing in the aggregate a majority of votes then outstanding, which could delay the ability of our stockholders to force consideration of a proposal or to take action, including the removal of directors; |
● | the ability of our board of directors, by majority vote, to amend our by-laws, which may allow our board of directors to take additional actions to prevent a hostile acquisition and inhibit the ability of an acquirer to amend our by-laws to facilitate a hostile acquisition; and |
● | advance notice procedures with which stockholders must comply to nominate candidates to our board of directors or to propose matters to be acted upon at a stockholders’ meeting, which may discourage or deter a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect the acquirer’s own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us. |
Delaware Anti-Takeover Statute
We are also subject to certain anti-takeover provisions under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, or the DGCL. Under Section 203 of the DGCL, a corporation may not, in general, engage in a business combination with any holder of 15% or more of its capital stock unless the holder has held the stock for three years or (i) our board of directors approves the transaction prior to the stockholder acquiring the 15% ownership position, (ii) upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder acquiring the 15% ownership position, the stockholder owns at least 85% of the outstanding voting stock (excluding shares owned by directors or officers and shares owned by certain employee stock plans) or (iii) the transaction is approved by the board of directors and by the stockholders at an annual or special meeting by a vote of 66 2/3% of the outstanding voting stock (excluding shares held or controlled by the interested stockholder). These provisions in our certificate of incorporation and by-laws and under Delaware law could discourage potential takeover attempts.
39 |
Since our inception, we have not paid any dividends on our common stock, and we currently expect that, for the foreseeable future, all earnings (if any) will be retained for the development of our business and no dividends will be declared or paid. In the future, our Board of Directors may decide, at their discretion, whether dividends may be declared and paid, taking into consideration, among other things, our earnings (if any), operating results, financial condition and capital requirements, general business conditions and other pertinent facts.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
Prior to this Offering, there has been a limited market for our Common Stock. Future sales of substantial amounts of our Common Stock, or securities or instruments convertible into our Common Stock, in the public market, or the perception that such sales may occur, could adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock prevailing from time to time. Furthermore, because there will be limits on the number of shares available for resale shortly after this Offering due to contractual and legal restrictions described below, there may be resales of substantial amounts of our Common Stock in the public market after those restrictions lapse. This could adversely affect the market price of our Common Stock prevailing at that time.
Rule 144
In general, a person who has beneficially owned restricted shares of our Common Stock for at least twelve months, in the event we are a reporting company under Regulation A, or at least six months, in the event we have been a reporting company under the Exchange Act for at least 90 days before the sale, would be entitled to sell such securities, provided that such person is not deemed to be an affiliate of ours at the time of sale or to have been an affiliate of ours at any time during the 90 days preceding the sale. A person who is an affiliate of ours at such time would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of the following:
● | 1% of the number of shares of our Common Stock then outstanding; or |
● | the average weekly trading volume of our Common Stock during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing by such person of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale; |
40 |
provided that, in each case, we are subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for at least 90 days before the sale. Rule 144 trades must also comply with the manner of sale, notice and other provisions of Rule 144, to the extent applicable.
Certain legal matters with respect to the shares of common stock offered hereby will be passed upon by Law Offices of Gary L. Blum whose address is 3278 Wilshire Blvd, Suite 603, Los Angeles, CA 90010. Telephone: (213) 381-7450.

NOTE 3 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 period. The Company uses all available information and appropriate techniques to develop its estimates. However, actual results could differ from its estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased as cash equivalents. The Company had no cash equivalents as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. At times throughout the year, the Company might maintain bank balances that may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured limits. Periodically, the Company evaluates the credit worthiness of the financial institutions and has not experienced any losses in such accounts. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company did not have bank balances that exceeded the FDIC insured limits.
Accounts Receivable
The Company’s accounts receivable is exposed to credit risk. During the normal course of business, the Company extends unsecured credit to its customers with normal and traditional trade terms. Typically credit terms require payments to be made by the thirtieth day following the sale. The Company regularly evaluates and monitors the creditworthiness of each customer. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts based on our continuing evaluation of its customers’ credit risk and its overall collection history. The Company had an allowance for doubtful accounts of $- and $- at June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.
Inventory
Inventories, which are comprised solely of finished goods, are stated at the lower of cost (based on the first-in, first-out method) or market. The Company provides for estimated losses from obsolete or slow-moving inventories and writes down the cost of inventory at the time such determinations are made. Reserves are estimated based upon inventory on hand, historical sales activity, industry trends, the business environment and the expected net realizable value. The net realizable value is determined based upon current awareness of market prices.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for major renewals and improvements are capitalized while expenditures for minor replacements, maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Upon retirement or disposal of assets, the accounts are relieved of cost and accumulated depreciation and the related gain or loss, if any, is reflected in loss on disposal of assets in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of income and comprehensive income.

NOTE 3 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
At least annually, the Company evaluates, and adjusts when necessary, the estimated useful lives. The changes in estimated useful lives did not have a material impact on depreciation in any period. The estimated useful lives are:
Leasehold improvements | Remaining term of lease | |
Furniture and fixtures | 5-7 years | |
Computer equipment and software | 3-5 years |
Impairment of Long-lived Assets
The Company evaluates the carrying value and recoverability of its long-lived assets when circumstances warrant such evaluation by applying the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 360-35, Property, Plant and Equipment, Subsequent Measurement (“ASC 360-35”). ASC 360-35 requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable through the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the assets. Whenever any such impairment exists, an impairment loss will be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws. A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized. Additionally, taxes are calculated and expensed in accordance with applicable tax code.
Segment Reporting
FASB ASC 280-10, Segment Reporting, defines operating segments as components of a company about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company reports according to one main segment.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company follows FASB ASC 820-10-35-37 (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to measure the fair value of its financial instruments and paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB ASC for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The three levels of fair value hierarchy defined by Paragraph 820-10-35-37 are described below:

NOTE 3 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Level 1 | Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. |
Level 2 | Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. |
Level 3 | Pricing inputs that are generally unobservable inputs and not corroborated by market data. |
Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.
The carrying amounts reported in the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and related party accrued expenses approximate their fair value because of the immediate or short-term nature of these financial instruments. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for its notes payable approximates fair value as the contractual interest rate and features are consistent with similar instruments of similar risk in the marketplace.
Transactions involving related parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm’s-length basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive, free-market dealings may not exist. Representations about transactions with related parties, if made, shall not imply that the related party transactions were consummated on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm’s-length transactions unless such representations can be substantiated.
It is not, however, practical to determine the fair value of advances from stockholders, if any, due to their related party nature.
The following table presents assets and liabilities that are measured and recognized at fair value as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, on a recurring basis:
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2021 | Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Total Carrying Value | ||||||||||||

Convertible Instruments
The Company evaluates and accounts for conversion options embedded in its convertible instruments in accordance with professional standards for FASB ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”).
Professional standards generally provide three criteria that, if met, require companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as free-standing derivative financial instruments. These three criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument. Professional standards also provide an exception to this rule when the host instrument is deemed to be conventional as defined under professional standards as “The Meaning of Conventional Convertible Debt Instrument.”
The Company accounts for convertible instruments (when it has determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments) in accordance with professional standards when “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features,” as those professional standards pertain to “Certain Convertible Instruments.” Accordingly, the Company records, when necessary, discounts to convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. Debt discounts under these arrangements are amortized over the term of the related debt to their earliest date of redemption. The Company also records when necessary deemed dividends for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in preferred shares based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note.
ASC 815 provides that, among other things, generally, if an event is not within the entity’s control could or require net cash settlement, then the contract shall be classified as an asset or a liability.
Stock Based Compensation
The Company follows FASB ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all share-based payment transactions in which employee services are acquired. Transactions include incurring liabilities, or issuing or offering to issue shares, options, and other equity instruments such as employee stock ownership plans and stock appreciation rights. Share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized as compensation expense in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements based on their fair values. That expense is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period).
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of FASB 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.

Through newly issued restricted common stock, the Company pays qualified contractors and advisors common shares in lieu of compensation for services provided including business development, management, technology development, consulting, legal services and accounting services.
Revenue Recognition
The Company derives its software system integration services revenue from short-duration, time and material contracts. Generally, such contracts provide for an hourly-rate and a stipulated maximum fee. Revenue is recorded only on executed arrangements as time is incurred on the project and as materials, which are insignificant to the total contract value, are expended. Revenue is not recognized in cases where customer acceptance of the work product is
necessary, unless sufficient work has been performed to ascertain that the performance specifications are being met and the customer acknowledges that such performance specifications are being met. The Company periodically review contractual performance and estimate future performance requirements. Losses on contracts are recorded when estimable. No contractual losses were identified during the periods presented.
The Company recognizes revenue for its software and software professional services when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectability is probable. Product sales are recognized by us generally at the time product is shipped. Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of goods sold.
The Company accounts for arrangements that contain multiple elements in accordance with FASB ASC 605-25, Revenue Recognition, Multiple Element Arrangements. When elements such as hardware, software and consulting services are contained in a single arrangement, or in related arrangements with the same customer, the Company allocates revenue to each element based on its relative fair value, provided that such element meets the criteria for treatment as a separate unit of accounting. The price charged when the element is sold separately generally determines fair value. In the absence of fair value for a delivered element, the Company allocates revenue first to the fair value of the underlying elements and allocate the residual revenue to the delivered elements. In the absence of fair value for an undelivered element, the arrangement is accounted for as a single unit of accounting, resulting in a delay of revenue recognition for the delivered elements until the undelivered elements are fulfilled.
The Company limits the amount of revenue recognition for delivered elements to the amount that is not contingent on future delivery of products or services or subject to customer-specified return of refund privileges. The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of manufacturer’s maintenance and extended warranty contracts in accordance with FASB ASC 605-45, Revenue Recognition, Principal Agent Considerations, net of its costs of purchasing the related contracts.
The Company’s collaboration service revenues are generated through the sale of CoroCall™, a managed collaboration service. Our contracts provide for usage pricing or when paid for pre-paid service. The Company recognizes this revenue in the period that the services or minutes are used and prepaid.

Research and Development
Research and development costs relate to the development of new products, including significant improvements and refinements to existing products, and are expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were $-, $-, $- and $-, respectively.
Advertising Expense
The Company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred. Advertising expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were $-, $-, $- and $-, respectively.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments which potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk are cash and cash equivalents and trade accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in deposit accounts with high quality, credit-worthy financial institutions.
Basic and Diluted Loss per Share
The Company computes basic and diluted earnings per share amounts in accordance with FASB ASC 260, Earnings per Share. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options and other commitments to issue common stock were exercised or equity awards vest resulting in the issuance of common stock that could share in the earnings of the Company.
For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, the effect of common stock equivalents has been excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive.
The Company currently has convertible debt and preferred stock, which, if converted, as of June 30, 2021 and 2020, would have caused the Company to issue diluted shares totaling 37,796,573,503 and 119,130,481,130, respectively.
Dividend Policy
The Company has never declared or paid any cash dividends on its common stock. The Company anticipates that any earnings will be retained for development and expansion of its business and does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Additionally, as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company has issued, and has outstanding, shares of Series B Preferred Stock which are entitled, prior to the declaration of any dividends on common stock, to earn a 5% dividend, payable in either cash or common stock of the Company. The Board of Directors has sole discretion to declare dividends based on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, contractual obligations and other relevant factors. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were cumulative undeclared dividends to Preferred Series B shareholders of $15,969 and $15,969, respectively, the obligation for which is contingent on declaration by the board of directors. These balances have been recorded as part of accounts payable and accrued expenses.

There are various updates recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to a have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
NOTE 4 – GOING CONCERN
The Company incurred a net loss in the amount of $49,666,485 during the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to a net loss of $1,246,268 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The Company has a working capital deficit of $89,823,012 and $40,196,559 as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The Company has accumulated deficits of $122,851,060 and $73,184,575 as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Because of these and other factors, the Company will require additional working capital to develop its business operations. The Company intends to raise additional working capital through the use of private placements, public offerings and/or bank financing.
There are no assurances that the Company will be able to either (1) achieve a level of revenues adequate to generate sufficient cash flow from operations; or (2) obtain additional financing through either private placements, public offerings and/or bank financing necessary to support the Company’s working capital requirements. To the extent that funds generated from operations, any private placements, public offerings and/or bank financing are insufficient, the Company will have to raise additional working capital. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available, or if available, will be on terms acceptable to the Company.
These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 10 – CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE, NET
In February 2003, the Company issued $230,000 of notes payable which matured in June 2003. The notes earn simple interest at 8% per annum unless they are in default, in which case they earn default simple interest at a rate of 15%. In July 2003, the terms of the note were changed such that the notes became convertible debentures, whereby at the option of the holder, all outstanding principal and interest can be converted into shares of the Company’s common stock at $1.00 per share. As of June 30, 2021, $100,000 of principal and $266,266 of accrued interest remain outstanding from these notes. These notes are currently in default.
On July 22, 2005, the Company issued a convertible promissory note to Richard Wynns (“Wynns”) for $30,000. The note accrues simple interest at a rate of 5% per annum and matures on December 31, 2006. At the option of the holder, all outstanding principal and interest can be converted into shares of the Company’s common stock at $0.15 per share. Through June 30, 2016, the holder converted $22,500 of principal into shares of the Company’s common stock. As of June 30, 2021, there is $7,500 of principal and $6,938 of accrued interest remaining on this note. This note is currently in default.

NOTE 14 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITY
Effective July 31, 2009, the Company adopted ASC 815, which defines determining whether an instrument (or embedded feature) is solely indexed to an entity’s own stock. The conversion price of certain convertible notes, convertible preferred stock and exercise price of certain warrants are variable and subject to the fair value of the Company’s units on the date of conversion or exercise. As a result, the Company has determined that the conversion and exercise features are not considered to be solely indexed to the Company’s own stock and is therefore not afforded equity treatment. In accordance with ASC 815, the Company has bifurcated the conversion and exercise features of the instruments to be recorded as a derivative liability.
ASC 815 requires Company management to assess the fair market value of certain derivatives at each reporting period and recognize any change in the fair market value as items of other income or expense. The Company’s only asset or liability measured at fair value on a recurring basis is its derivative liability associated with convertible notes payable and warrants.
At origination and subsequent revaluations, the Company valued the derivative liabilities using the Black-Scholes options pricing model under the following assumptions as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020:
Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 | Year Ended December 31, 2020 | |||||||
Risk-free interest rate | 0.21-0.87 | % | 0.13-0.36 | % | ||||
Expected options life | 1 - 5 yrs | 1 - 3 yrs | ||||||
Expected dividend yield | - | - | ||||||
Expected price volatility | 376.07 | % | 693.24 | % |
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company’s derivative liability increased from $21,713,986 to $71,074,787, and the Company recognized a gain (loss) on derivative liabilities of $(43,365,798), $554,949, $(49,360,801) and $(600,942) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, in conjunction with settlement of convertible notes payable, additions of new derivative liabilities and subsequent revaluations of existing derivative liabilities.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of CoroWare, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, CoroWare Technologies, Inc., CoroWare Robotics Solutions, Inc., and Robotic Workspace Technologies, Inc., as well as its 51% interest in ARiCON, LLC (collectively, the “Company”). All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 period. The Company uses all available information and appropriate techniques to develop its estimates. However, actual results could differ from its estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased as cash equivalents. The Company had no cash equivalents as of December 31, 2020 and 2019. At times throughout the year, the Company might maintain bank balances that may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insured limits. Periodically, the Company evaluates the credit worthiness of the financial institutions and has not experienced any losses in such accounts. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company did not have bank balances that exceeded the FDIC insured limits.
Accounts Receivable
The Company’s accounts receivable are exposed to credit risk. During the normal course of business, the Company extends unsecured credit to its customers with normal and traditional trade terms. Typically credit terms require payments to be made by the thirtieth day following the sale. The Company regularly evaluates and monitors the creditworthiness of each customer. The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts based on our continuing evaluation of its customers’ credit risk and its overall collection history. The Company had an allowance for doubtful accounts of $- and $- at December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Inventory
Inventories, which are comprised solely of finished goods, are stated at the lower of cost (based on the first-in, first-out method) or market. The Company provides for estimated losses from obsolete or slow-moving inventories, and writes down the cost of inventory at the time such determinations are made. Reserves are estimated based upon inventory on hand, historical sales activity, industry trends, the business environment and the expected net realizable value. The net realizable value is determined based upon current awareness of market prices.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for major renewals and improvements are capitalized while expenditures for minor replacements, maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Upon retirement or disposal of assets, the accounts are relieved of cost and accumulated depreciation and the related gain or loss, if any, is reflected in loss on disposal of assets in the consolidated statement of income and comprehensive income.
At least annually, the Company evaluates, and adjusts when necessary, the estimated useful lives. The changes in estimated useful lives did not have a material impact on depreciation in any period. The estimated useful lives are:
Leasehold improvements | Remaining term of lease | |
Furniture and fixtures | 5-7 years | |
Computer equipment and software | 3-5 years |
Impairment of Long-lived Assets
The Company evaluates the carrying value and recoverability of its long-lived assets when circumstances warrant such evaluation by applying the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 360-35, Property, Plant and Equipment, Subsequent Measurement (“ASC 360-35”). ASC 360-35 requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable through the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the assets. Whenever any such impairment exists, an impairment loss will be recognized for the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws. A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized. Additionally, taxes are calculated and expensed in accordance with applicable tax code.
Segment Reporting
FASB ASC 280-10, Segment Reporting, defines operating segments as components of a company about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company reports according to one main segment.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company follows FASB ASC 820-10-35-37 (“Paragraph 820-10-35-37”) to measure the fair value of its financial instruments and paragraph 825-10-50-10 of the FASB ASC for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments. Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and

expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures, Paragraph 820-10-35-37 establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The three levels of fair value hierarchy defined by Paragraph 820-10-35-37 are described below:
Level 1 | Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. |
Level 2 | Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. |
Level 3 | Pricing inputs that are generally unobservable inputs and not corroborated by market data. |
Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.
The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument.
The carrying amounts reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements for accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and related party accrued expenses approximate their fair value because of the immediate or short-term nature of these financial instruments. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for its notes payable approximates fair value as the contractual interest rate and features are consistent with similar instruments of similar risk in the marketplace.
Transactions involving related parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm’s-length basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive, free-market dealings may not exist. Representations about transactions with related parties, if made, shall not imply that the related party transactions were consummated on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm’s-length transactions unless such representations can be substantiated.
It is not, however, practical to determine the fair value of advances from stockholders, if any, due to their related party nature.
The following table presents assets and liabilities that are measured and recognized at fair value as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, on a recurring basis:
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2020 | Level 1 | Level 2 | Level 3 | Total Carrying Value | ||||||||||||

Convertible Instruments
The Company evaluates and accounts for conversion options embedded in its convertible instruments in accordance with professional standards for FASB ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”).
Professional standards generally provide three criteria that, if met, require companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments. These three criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument. Professional standards also provide an exception to this rule when the host instrument is deemed to be conventional as defined under professional standards as “The Meaning of Conventional Convertible Debt Instrument”.
The Company accounts for convertible instruments (when it has determined that the embedded conversion options should not be bifurcated from their host instruments) in accordance with professional standards when “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features,” as those professional standards pertain to “Certain Convertible Instruments.” Accordingly, the Company records, when necessary, discounts to convertible notes for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in debt instruments based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note. Debt discounts under these arrangements are amortized over the term of the related debt to their earliest date of redemption. The Company also records when necessary deemed dividends for the intrinsic value of conversion options embedded in preferred shares based upon the differences between the fair value of the underlying common stock at the commitment date of the note transaction and the effective conversion price embedded in the note.
ASC 815 provides that, among other things, generally, if an event is not within the entity’s control could or require net cash settlement, then the contract shall be classified as an asset or a liability.
Stock Based Compensation
The Company follows FASB ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all share-based payment transactions in which employee services are acquired. Transactions include incurring liabilities, or issuing or offering to issue shares, options, and other equity instruments such as employee stock ownership plans and stock appreciation rights. Share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, are recognized as compensation expense in the consolidated financial statements based on their fair values. That expense is recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award, known as the requisite service period (usually the vesting period).
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of FASB 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.
Through newly issued restricted common stock, the Company pays qualified contractors and advisors common shares in lieu of compensation for services provided including business development, management, technology development, consulting, legal services and accounting services.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Revenue Recognition
The Company derives its software system integration services revenue from short-duration, time and material contracts. Generally, such contracts provide for an hourly-rate and a stipulated maximum fee. Revenue is recorded only on executed arrangements as time is incurred on the project and as materials, which are insignificant to the total contract value, are expended. Revenue is not recognized in cases where customer acceptance of the work product is necessary, unless sufficient work has been performed to ascertain that the performance specifications are being met and the customer acknowledges that such performance specifications are being met. The Company periodically review contractual performance and estimate future performance requirements. Losses on contracts are recorded when estimable. No contractual losses were identified during the periods presented.
The Company recognizes revenue for its software and software professional services when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectability is probable. Product sales are recognized by us generally at the time product is shipped. Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of goods sold.
The Company accounts for arrangements that contain multiple elements in accordance with FASB ASC 605-25, Revenue Recognition, Multiple Element Arrangements. When elements such as hardware, software and consulting services are contained in a single arrangement, or in related arrangements with the same customer, the Company allocates revenue to each element based on its relative fair value, provided that such element meets the criteria for treatment as a separate unit of accounting. The price charged when the element is sold separately generally determines fair value. In the absence of fair value for a delivered element, the Company allocates revenue first to the fair value of the underlying elements and allocate the residual revenue to the delivered elements. In the absence of fair value for an undelivered element, the arrangement is accounted for as a single unit of accounting, resulting in a delay of revenue recognition for the delivered elements until the undelivered elements are fulfilled.
The Company limits the amount of revenue recognition for delivered elements to the amount that is not contingent on future delivery of products or services or subject to customer-specified return of refund privileges. The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of manufacturer’s maintenance and extended warranty contracts in accordance with FASB ASC 605-45, Revenue Recognition, Principal Agent Considerations, net of its costs of purchasing the related contracts.
Research and Development
Research and development costs relate to the development of new products, including significant improvements and refinements to existing products, and are expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 were $- and $-, respectively.
Advertising Expense
The Company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred. Advertising expense for the years ending December 31, 2020 and 2019 were $- and $-, respectively.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments which potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk are cash and cash equivalents and trade accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in deposit accounts with high quality, credit-worthy financial institutions.
Basic and Diluted Loss per Share
The Company computes basic and diluted earnings per share amounts in accordance with FASB ASC 260, Earnings per Share. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common

shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options and other commitments to issue common stock were exercised or equity awards vest resulting in the issuance of common stock that could share in the earnings of the Company.
For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the effect of common stock equivalents has been excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive.
The Company currently has convertible debt and preferred stock, which, if converted, as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, would have caused the Company to issue diluted shares totaling 106,657,185,025 and 112,999,200,642, respectively.
Dividend Policy
The Company has never declared or paid any cash dividends on its common stock. The Company anticipates that any earnings will be retained for development and expansion of its business and does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Additionally, as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 the Company has issued and has outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock which are entitled, prior to the declaration of any dividends on common stock, to earn a 5 percent dividend, payable in either cash or common stock of the Company. The Board of Directors has sole discretion to declare dividends based on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, contractual obligations and other relevant factors. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, there were cumulative undeclared dividends to Preferred Series B shareholders of $15,969 and $15,969, respectively, the obligation for which is contingent on declaration by the board of directors. These balances have been recorded as part of accounts payable and accrued expenses.
ASU 2014-08
In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360) and Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity (“ASU 2014-08”). ASU 2014-08 amends the definition for what types of asset disposals are to be considered discontinued operations, as well as amending the required disclosures for discontinued operations and assets held for sale. ASU 2014-08 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2014. The adoption of ASU 2014-08 did not have any effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
ASU 2014-09
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 affects any entity using U.S. GAAP that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services, or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards (e.g., insurance contracts or lease contracts). ASU 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is still evaluating the effect of the adoption of ASU 2014-09. On April 1, 2015, the FASB voted to propose to defer the effective date of the new revenue recognition standard by one year.
ASU 2014-12
In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be achieved after the Requisite Service Period (“ASU 2014-12”). This ASU requires that a performance target that affects vesting, and that could be achieved after the requisite service period, be treated as a performance condition. ASU 2014-12 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. The adoption of ASU 2014-12 did not have any effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

ASU 2014-15 provides guidance related to management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosure. ASU 2014-15 is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and for interim and annual periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-15 to have a material effect on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
ASU 2014-16
In November 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-16, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) (“ASU 2014-16”). ASU 2014-16 addresses whether the host contract in a hybrid financial instrument issued in the form of a share should be accounted for as debt or equity. ASU 2014-16 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. The adoption of ASU 2014-16 did not have any effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
ASU 2014-17
In November 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-17, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Pushdown Accounting (“ASU 2014-17”). This ASU provides an acquired entity with an option to apply pushdown accounting in its separate financial statements upon occurrence of an event in which an acquirer obtains control of the acquired entity. An acquired entity may elect the option to apply pushdown accounting in the reporting period in which the change-in-control event occurs. If pushdown accounting is applied to an individual change-in-control event, that election is irrevocable. ASU 2014-17 was effective on November 18, 2014. The adoption of ASU 2014-17 did not have any effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
ASU 2015-01

This ASU eliminates from U.S. GAAP the concept of extraordinary items. ASU 2015-01 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. A reporting entity may apply the amendments prospectively. The adoption of ASU 2015-01 did not have any effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
ASU 2015-02
In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis (“ASU 2015-02”), which is intended to improve targeted areas of consolidation guidance for legal entities such as limited partnerships, limited liability corporations, and securitization structures (collateralized debt obligations, collateralized loan obligations, and mortgage-backed security transactions). This ASU focuses on the consolidation evaluation for reporting organizations that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities. In addition to reducing the number of consolidation models from four to two, the new standard simplifies the FASB ASC and improves current U.S. GAAP by placing more emphasis on risk of loss when determining a controlling financial interest, reducing the frequency of the application of related-party guidance when determining a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity (“VIE”), and changing consolidation conclusions for companies in several industries that typically make use of limited partnerships or VIEs. This ASU will be effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The adoption of ASU 2015-02 did not have any effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

ASU 2015-03
In April 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU 2015-03”). The amendments in this ASU require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this ASU. The amendments are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. The amendments are to be applied on a retrospective basis, wherein the balance sheet of each individual period presented is adjusted to reflect the period-specific effects of applying the new guidance. The adoption of ASU 2014-08 did not have any effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
There are various other updates recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to a have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN
The Company incurred a net loss in the amount of $11,729,741 during the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to net income of $10,031,946 for the year ended December 31, 2019. The Company has a working capital deficit of $40,195,559 and $28,466,819 as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The Company has accumulated deficits of $73,184,575 and $61,454,835 as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Because of these and other factors, the Company will require additional working capital to develop its business operations. The Company intends to raise additional working capital through the use of private placements, public offerings and/or bank financing.
There are no assurances that the Company will be able to either (1) achieve a level of revenues adequate to generate sufficient cash flow from operations; or (2) obtain additional financing through either private placements, public offerings and/or bank financing necessary to support the Company’s working capital requirements. To the extent that funds generated from operations, any private placements, public offerings and/or bank financing are insufficient, the Company will have to raise additional working capital. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available, or if available, will be on terms acceptable to the Company.
These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

As a result, the Company has determined that the conversion and exercise features are not considered to be solely indexed to the Company’s own stock and is therefore not afforded equity treatment. In accordance with ASC 815, the Company has bifurcated the conversion and exercise features of the instruments to be recorded as a derivative liability.
ASC 815 requires Company management to assess the fair market value of certain derivatives at each reporting period and recognize any change in the fair market value as items of other income or expense. The Company’s

NOTE 15 – PREFERRED STOCK (continued)
shares of the Corporation’s common stock determined by dividing the stated value by the conversion price which is defined as eighty five percent (85%) of the average closing bid price of the common stock over the twenty (20) trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion, but no less than par value of the common stock. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had 25,000 and 25,000 shares of Series G preferred stock issued and outstanding, respectively.
Based upon the Company’s evaluation of the terms and conditions of the Series G Preferred Stock, the embedded conversion feature related to the preferred stock was afforded the exemption as a conventional convertible instrument due to certain variabilities in the conversion price and met the conditions for equity classification. However, the Company is required to bifurcate the embedded conversion feature and carry it as a derivative liability.
The Company estimated the fair value of the compound derivative using a common stock equivalent and the current share price of the Company’s common stock. As a result of this estimate, the Company’s valuation model resulted in a compound derivative balance associated with the Series G preferred stock of $50,000 and $25,000 as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. This amount is included as a current liability on the Company’s balance sheet. Fair value adjustments of $(25,000) and $7,321 were charged to derivative income (expense) for the year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

NOTE 18 – INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets at currently enacted tax rates for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the consolidated financial statements or tax returns. A valuation allowance is recognized to reduce the net deferred tax asset to an amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
ASC 740 provides guidance on the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company’s financial statements. ASC 740 requires a company to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based upon the technical merits of the position. If the more likely-than-not threshold is met, a company must measure the tax position to determine the amount to recognize in the consolidated financial statements.
Net deferred tax assets consist of the following components as of December 31, 2020 and 2019:
As a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (Tax Legislation) enacted on December 22, 2017, the United States corporate income tax rate is 21% effective January 1, 2018.
The provision for (benefit from) income taxes differs from the amount computed by applying the statutory United States federal income tax rate for the periods presented to income (loss) before income taxes. The income tax rate was 21% for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019.
The sources of the differences follow:

December 31, | ||||||||
2020 | 2019 | |||||||
Expected tax at 21% | $ | (2,463,246 | ) | $ | 2,106,709 | |||

Change in valuation allowance/NOL carryforward | 278,851 | 263,546 | ||||||
Total provision for income taxes | $ | - | $ | - |
At December 31, 2020, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $18,206,575 that expires in varying amounts from the year 2021 thru the year 2037. No tax benefit has been reported in the December 31, 2020 consolidated financial statements since the potential tax benefit is offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount. Due to the change in ownership provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carry forwards for Federal income tax reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. Should a change in ownership occur, net operating loss carry forwards may be limited as to use in future years.
The income tax provision differs from the amount of income tax determined by applying the estimated U.S. federal and state income tax rates of 34 percent to pretax income from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 due to the following:
December 31, 2020 | December 31, 2019 | |||||||
