Notes to Unaudited Condensed Financial Statements
Note 1. Nature of Operations
Company Overview
The operations of Advanced Voice Recognition Systems, Inc. (“AVRS” or the “Company”) commenced in 1994 with a predecessor entity called NCC, Inc. NCC, Inc. was incorporated on March 15, 1994 in the State of Ohio. NCC, Inc. operated as a software and hardware development company that marketed voice recognition and transcription products for commercial applications.
In May 2000, WG Investments, LLC acquired the assets of NCC, Inc. and subsequently changed its name to NCC, LLC. NCC, LLC (also a predecessor to AVRS) continued the operations of NCC, Inc. until approximately December 31, 2001, when shifts in the industry’s markets caused NCC, LLC to suspend its operations.
AVRS was incorporated in the State of Colorado on July 7, 2005. In September 2005, the members of NCC, LLC transferred all of their membership interests in NCC, LLC to AVRS in exchange for 93,333,333 shares (post-recapitalization) of AVRS common stock. In December 2005, the Board of Directors approved a 1.5-to-1 stock split issuing 46,666,667 common shares (post-recapitalization), which increased the number of common shares outstanding to 140 million shares (post-capitalization).

Litigation
From time to time, we may become involved in legal proceedings or other litigation that we consider to be a part of the ordinary course of our business. Presently, we are not involved in any litigation and to the best knowledge of management, there are no legal proceedings pending or threatened against the Company.

The Articles of Information with the state of Nevada were amended to reflect the approved actions of the Shareholders.
The reverse stock split did not change the number of authorized shares five hundred and forty seven million five hundred thousand (547,500,000) shares of common stock or par value. All references in these condensed financial statements to share, share prices, and other per share information in all periods presented have been adjusted, on a retrospective basis, to reflect the reverse stock split.

Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, the Company sold 7,500,000 shares of common stock at a purchase price of $0.40 per share for a total of $3,000,000. The funds will be used to pay the Company’s debts and contribute to the Acquisition costs. The Company has distributed to Rivulet $2,800,000 as a portion of the acquisition cost. The Company paid no underwriting discounts or commissions. A copy of the form of subscription agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.5 to this Current Report and is incorporated herein by reference. These issuances are granted based on exemptions from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and applicable state laws pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 506 of Regulation D. These issuances qualified for this exemption from registration because (i) the Investor is an “accredited investors” as that term is defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act; (ii) the Company did not engage in any general solicitation or advertising to market the securities; (iii) the Investor was provided the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the issuance; (iv) the securities will be issued to a person with knowledge and experience in financial and business matters so that the investor is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Company; and (v) the Investor received restricted securities.
Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies
Unaudited Financial Information
The accompanying financial information at March 31, 2024 and for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all normal and recurring adjustments which are necessary to provide a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position at March 31, 2024 and its operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 have been made. Certain information and footnote data necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and results of operations in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. It is therefore suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the summary of significant accounting policies and notes to financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for the year ended December 31, 2023. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024 are not necessarily an indication of operating results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. At March 31, 2024 Current Assets were $2,846,368 and Current Liabilities were $166,241. Current assets exceed current liabilities which resulted in working capital of $2,680,127 and no significant revenues. The Company may be unable to continue as a going concern because of these factors there is substantial doubt about the Company being able to continue for a reasonable time.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis and ultimately to attain profitability. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 the Company received an aggregate of $305,683 from the release of escrow related to the sale of shares in private offerings of its common stock and $123,500 from advances from related parties. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company received an aggregate of $3,000,000 from the sale of shares in private offerings of its common stock. There is no guarantee that AVRS will be able to provide the capital required for the Company to continue as a going concern.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less when acquired to be cash equivalents. The Company had cash at March 31, 2024 of $46,368, and $480 at December 31, 2023. No amounts resulted from cash equivalents.

Note 6. Provision for Corporate Income Taxes
The Company provides for income taxes by the use of an asset and liability approach in accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities and the tax rates in effect when these differences are expected to reverse. This also requires the reduction of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
FASB Interpretation No. 48 (Fin 48) - Accounting for Uncertain Tax Positions
The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and various state, and local jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examination by tax authorities, with limited exception, for the quarters prior to December 31, 2014. With respect to state and local jurisdictions, with limited exception, the Company is no longer subject to income tax audits prior to December 31, 2014. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by various taxing authorities. Although the outcome of tax audits is always uncertain, the Company believes that adequate amounts of tax, interest and penalties have been provided for any adjustments that may result from these open tax years.

The actual merger is the Subsidiary merging into the Company with the Company surviving and operating under the Subsidiary’s name. This type of merger does not require shareholder approval pursuant to the applicable Nevada
10
statutes. On May 1, 2024 the correction has been made with the state of Nevada and an Amended Agreement and Plan of Merger has been executed by the parties. The Amended Plan of Merger as filed with the 8-K on May 3, 2024 is incorporated herein by reference.

However, future equity or debt financing may not be available to us at all, or if available, may not be on terms acceptable to us. We do not intend to pay dividends to shareholders in the foreseeable future.
In order for our operations to continue, we will need to generate revenues from our intended operations sufficient to meet our anticipated cost structure.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. At March 31, 2024 Current Assets were $2,846,368 and Current Liabilities were $166,241. Current assets exceed current liabilities which resulted in working capital of $2,680,127 and no significant revenues. The Company may be unable to continue as a going concern because of these factors there is substantial doubt about the Company being able to continue for a reasonable time.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations on a timely basis and ultimately to attain profitability. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2023 the Company received an aggregate of $305,683 from the release of escrow related to the sale of shares in private offerings of its common stock and $123,500 from advances from related parties. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company received an aggregate of $3,000,000 from the sale of shares in private offerings of its common stock. There is no guarantee that AVRS will be able to provide the capital required for the Company to continue as a going concern.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
Pursuant to Item 305(e) of Regulation S-K (229.305(e), the Company is not required to provide the information required by this Item as it is a “smaller reporting company,” as defined by Rule 229.10(f)(1) of the SEC.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) and pursuant to Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of March 31, 2024. Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act, such as this Form 10-Q, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and is communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
We have identified, as of March 31, 2024, a lack of segregation of duties in accounting and financial reporting activities, which we do believe is a material weakness. The size of our business necessarily imposes practical limitations on the effectiveness of those internal control practices and procedures that rely on the segregation of duties. Our chief executive officer and chief financial officer work closely and review all day-to-day transactional activities with the secretary Treasurer. The volume of the transactions of the Company is limited.
Management believes this lack of segregation of duties in accounting and financial reporting did not result in material inaccuracies or omissions of material fact and, to the best of its knowledge, believes that the financial statements for the quarter ending March 31, 2024 fairly present in all material respects the financial condition and results of operations for the Company in conformity with GAAP. There is, however, a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements would not have been prevented or detected as a result of this weakness.

Our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the appropriate time periods, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely discussions regarding required disclosure. We, under the supervisions of and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, who is our principal executive officer, and Chief Financial Officer, who is our principal financial officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based upon such evaluation, our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer have concluded that, as of March 31, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were ineffective because of the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting due to a lack of segregation of duties and the lack of formal documentation of our control environment.
Changes in internal control over financial reporting.
We regularly review our system of internal control over financial reporting and make changes to our processes and systems to improve controls and increase efficiency, while ensuring that we maintain an effective internal control environment. Changes may include such activities as implementing new, more efficient systems, consolidating activities, and migrating processes.
There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
