REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Worldwide Specialty Chemicals, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Worldwide Specialty Chemicals, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”), as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2017.

Worldwide Specialty Chemicals Inc. and Subsidiaries
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NATURE OF BUSINESS
Pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated March 23, 2020 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Lux Amber, Corp., a Nevada corporation (“Lux Amber” or the “Company”), Worldwide Specialty Chemicals Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Worldwide”), and its subsidiary WSC Newco, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“WSC Newco”):
(a) Worldwide transferred substantially all of its business assets to WSC Newco, and
(b) Worldwide merged with and into the Company, with the Company remaining as the surviving corporation (the “Merger”).
On March 26, 2020, the Merger transaction closed, and two state filings formalized the Merger: a certificate of merger filed with the Delaware Secretary of State, and articles of merger filed with the Nevada Secretary of State.
Following the Merger, WSC Newco, Inc. amended its charter to reflect a change of name to “Worldwide Specialty Chemicals Inc.” and it continues the business historically conducted by Worldwide, in its capacity as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.
As a consequence of the Merger, Lux Amber is no longer an early stage development company. Lux Amber will carry forward the historical operating businesses of Worldwide and its operating subsidiaries: Industrial Chem Solutions, Inc. (“ICS”), and Safeway Pest Elimination, LLC (“SPE”).
The current stock symbol for the Company’s common stock is LXAM. A formal stock symbol change for the Company will be effected following a filing with and approval of FINRA. The Company’s corporate telephone number is 855-932-2228.
The Company’s subsidiaries serve as both producers and distributors of environmentally safe, specialty chemicals. ICS and SPE are located at 145 Rose Lane, Suite 102, Frisco, TX 75036. The third subsidiary, PCNM, LLC (“PCNM”) is 49% owned, and is a Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business that markets the Company’s products to government agencies.
ICS and SPE products utilize all-natural and renewable resources, contain no dangerous chemicals or additives, and offer “green” solutions to its customers. ICS’s product line includes asphalt release agents, industrial cleaners, environmental remediation gels, odor control agents, and consumer friendly cleaners for a wide range of uses, including construction, environmental remediation, hazardous materials clean-up, nuclear decommissioning, industrial cleaning, and odor control. SPE products are designed for the elimination and control of pests.
The Company’s corporate offices are located at 145 Rose Lane, Suite 102, Frisco, Texas 75036, where the Company has 12,000 square feet of office and production space under lease.
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A summary of the significant accounting polices consistently applied in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) is as follows.
Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of WSC, ICS, SPE, and PCNM. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
F-7 |
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
FASB ASC 825-10 requires disclosure of fair value information about certain financial instruments, including, but not limited to, cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued expenses, related party payables, and notes payable. Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management at December 31, 2019 and 2018. The carrying value of the financial instruments included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements approximated their fair values.
The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and related party payables are carried at, or approximate, fair value as of the reporting date because of their short-term nature.
The carrying value of the notes payable approximates fair value as they bear market rates of interest.
Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share
Basic net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted loss per share has not been presented because there are no dilutive items. Diluted earnings loss per share is based on the assumption that all dilutive stock options, warrants, and convertible debt are converted or exercised by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. Options, warrants and/or convertible debt will have a dilutive effect, during periods of net profit, only when the average market price of the common stock during the period exceeds the exercise or conversion price of the items.
For the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, approximately 82,668 and 512,668 common stock warrants, respectively, and 7,309,750 and 5,059,750 common stock options, respectively, were not added to the diluted average shares because inclusion of such warrants and options would be antidilutive.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an initial maturity of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash balances at several financial institutions located throughout the United States, which at times may exceed insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts and believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts receivable are recorded at invoiced amount and generally do not bear interest. An allowance for doubtful accounts is established, as necessary, based on past experience and other factors which, in management's judgment, deserve current recognition in estimating bad debts. Such factors include growth and composition of accounts receivable, the relationship of the allowance for doubtful accounts to accounts receivable, and current economic conditions. The determination of the collectability of amounts due requires the Company to make judgments regarding future events and trends. Allowances for doubtful accounts are determined based on assessing the Company’s portfolio on an individual customer and on an overall basis. This process consists of a review of historical collection experience, current aging status of the customer account, and the financial condition of the Company’s customers. Based on a review of these factors, the Company establishes or adjusts the allowance for specific customers and the accounts receivable portfolio as a whole. At December 31, 2019 and 2018, the allowance for doubtful accounts was $0.
F-8 |
Revenue Recognition
On January 1, 2018, we adopted Accounting Standards Committee 606 (“ASC 606”), Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which provides guidance on how revenue with customers should be recognized.
Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for transferring goods or providing service. Revenue from product sold is recognized when obligations with the customer are satisfied, which generally occurs with the transfer or delivery of the product, signifying the point in time when the customer obtains control of the promised goods. Our performance obligation is delivering the product to the customer; and therefore, the transaction price, which is stated on the invoice, is allocated 100% to the sole performance obligation of product delivery. Revenue from service, if applicable, would be recognized when the services are provided, or the customer receives the benefit, which is over time.
Our sales policies do not provide for general rights of return, and payment is due net of 60 days. We do not record estimated reductions to revenue for customer programs and incentive offerings including pricing arrangements, promotions and other volume-based incentives at the time of the sale. We also do not record estimated reserves for product returns and credits at the time of sale and anticipated uncollectible accounts.
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, with cost determined on a first-in first-out basis. The carrying value of inventory is reduced for estimated obsolescence. The Company evaluates the inventory carrying value for potential excess and obsolete inventory exposures by analyzing historical and anticipated demand.
The following table sets forth the components of the Company’s inventory balances as of December 31:
|

|
| (17,290 | ) |
|
| - |
|
|
| $ | 145,747 |
|
| $ | 69,197 |
|
For the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019, the Company has elected to expense costs for packaging supplies as costs are incurred.
Fixed Assets
Fixed assets consist of furniture, fixtures and office equipment, vehicles and trailers, equipment and leasehold improvements that are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided in amounts sufficient to relate the cost of depreciable assets to earnings over their estimated service lives (3 – 10 years) under the straight-line method.
Maintenance and repairs are charged to earnings as incurred; major repairs and replacements are capitalized. When items of property or equipment are sold or retired, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in operations.
Property and equipment operated under material leases which transfer substantially all benefits and risks associated with the assets to the Company are capitalized. An asset and liability equal to the present or fair value, if appropriate, of minimum payments over the term of the leases are recorded. Depreciation of the asset is computed using the straight-line method over the life of the asset. Expenses associated with operating leases are charged to income as incurred.
F-9 |
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the value of the purchase price and related costs over the identifiable assets from business acquisitions. The Company conducts an annual impairment assessment, at the reporting unit level, of its recorded goodwill. The Company assesses qualitative factors in order to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than the carrying amount. The qualitative factors evaluated by the Company include: macro-economic conditions of the local business environment, overall financial performance, and other entity specific factors as deemed appropriate. If, through this qualitative assessment, the conclusion is made that it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than the carrying amount, a two-step impairment test is performed. Management determined, by assessing the qualitative factors, that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is greater than the carrying value. Management does not consider the value of goodwill recorded for ICS in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet to be impaired as of December 31, 2019.
Share-based Compensation
The Company recognizes compensation expense for all share-based payments in accordance with FASB Codification Topic 718, Compensation — Stock Compensation, (ASC 718). Under the fair value recognition provisions of ASC 718, the Company recognizes share-based compensation expense, net of an estimated forfeiture rate, over the requisite service period of the award. The fair value at the measurement date of stock options is estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period based on the estimated number of stock options that are expected to vest. The Company estimates forfeitures to be 50% for options that vest over time.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for Federal and state income taxes using the asset and liability approach for financial accounting and reporting for income taxes based on tax effects of differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities.
The Company accounts for all uncertain tax positions in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification 740 – Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties and disclosure related to uncertain income tax positions. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. There were no accrued interest or penalties as of December 31, 2019 and 2018.
From time to time, the Company may be audited by taxing authorities. These audits could result in proposed assessments of additional taxes. The Company believes that its tax positions comply in all material respects with applicable tax law. However, tax law is subject to interpretation, and interpretations by taxing authorities could be different from those of the Company, which could result in the imposition of additional taxes. The Company’s federal returns since 2016 are still subject to examination by taxing authorities.
Prepaid Expenses
Prepaid expenses consist of expenses the Company has paid for prior to the service or goods being provided. These prepaid expenses will be recorded as expense at the time the service or goods have been provided.
License Fee
ICS pays 10% of the net selling price of DeconGel ™ to CBI Polymers, Inc. (“CBI”), as a mutually acceptable license fee. E. Thomas Layton, Chairman and CEO of WSC is also, the Chairman, CEO, and controlling shareholder of CBI.
Advertising Costs
The Company recognizes expenses for advertising costs as they are incurred. Advertising costs were $22,099 and $102,389 for the years ending December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
F-10 |
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has incurred substantial operating losses during 2019 and 2018 resulting in an accumulated deficit of $11,390,098 at December 31, 2019, and an accumulated deficit of $7,778,036 at December 31, 2018. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date the financial statements are being issued. As such, the Company will need to arrange for additional financing to fully implement its business plan, including continued growth and establishment of a stronger brand.
The Company is actively seeking growth of its product and service offerings, both organically and via new client relationships. In the ordinary course of the Company’s business, management is trying to raise additional capital through sales of common stock as well as seeking debt financing from third parties. There are no assurances that additional financing will be available on favorable terms, or at all. If additional financing is not available, the Company will need to reduce, defer or cancel development programs, planned initiatives and overhead expenditures. The failure to adequately fund its capital requirements could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations, including potential discontinuance of operations. Moreover, the sale of additional equity securities to raise financing will result in additional dilution to the Company’s stockholders. Additionally, incurring additional indebtedness could involve an increased debt service cash obligation, as well as the imposition of covenants that restrict the Company’s operations or the Company’s ability to perform on its current debt service requirements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Pronouncements Recently Adopted
Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC 842, which requires recognition of a right-of-use asset and lease liability for all leases at the commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures regarding the Company's leasing arrangements are also required. We elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance, which allowed us to carryforward our historical lease classification, our assessment on whether a contract was or contains a lease, and our initial direct costs for any leases that existed prior to January 1, 2019. The first package of practical expedients only can be applied if lease assessment was correct under ASC 840 which defines a lease as an arrangement conveying the right to use property, plant, or equipment usually for a stated period of time. We did not elect the hindsight practical expedient in determining the lease and in assessing impairment of our right-of-use assets. We also elected to combine our lease and non-lease components and to keep leases with an initial term of 12 months or less off the balance sheet and recognize the associated lease payments in the consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Additionally, for certain equipment leases, we apply a portfolio approach to effectively account for the finance lease right-of-use (ROU) assets and lease liabilities. Upon adoption, the Company used the modified retrospective method. There was no cumulative effect on the consolidated financial statements as of January 1, 2019, as there were no applicable leases as of that date.
Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 Financial Instruments-Credit Losses, which amends how entities will measure credit losses for most financial assets and certain other instruments that are not measured at fair value through net income, which applies to trade accounts receivable and the calculation of the allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable. The new standard will become effective for the Company for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this accounting guidance will have on the consolidated financial statements.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill impairment (“ASU 2017-04”), which removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. A goodwill impairment will now be determined by the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. ASU 2017-04 is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods therein, beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of ASU 2017-04.

5. INCOME TAXES
On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”) was signed into United States tax law, which among other provisions lowered the corporate tax rate to 21%. Given this date of enactment, the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2019 reflect the impact of the Act.
The Company has elected C Corporation tax status. Net operating losses (“NOL”) total $11,516,464 as of December 31, 2019 and may be carried forward to offset future taxable income. As future taxable income is uncertain, a full valuation allowance has been recorded and accordingly, no current provision for income tax has been recorded in the accompanying statements of operations. NOL carry-forward benefits begin to expire in 2035.
The following table summarizes the difference between the actual tax provision and the amounts obtained by applying the statutory tax rates to the income or loss before income taxes for the years ended December 31:

A deferred tax liability or asset is determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities as measured by the enacted tax rates which will be in effect when these differences reverse. Deferred tax expense or benefit in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations are the result of changes in the assets and liabilities for deferred taxes. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by the amount for any tax benefits that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized. Income tax expense is the current tax payable or refundable for the year plus or minus the net change in the deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred income taxes of the Company arise from the temporary differences between financial statement and income tax recognition of NOL carry-forwards.
The deferred tax assets and liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets include the following components at December 31:

6. COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND CONCENTRATIONS
Leases
The Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) ASU 2016-02, Leases on the January 1, 2019 on a modified retrospective basis. The initial adoption of the standard recognized right-of-use assets of $493,832 and lease liabilities of $498,361 on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet with no impact on the Company's results of operations. The Company elected the hindsight practical expedient and the package of practical expedients to not reassess prior conclusions related to contracts containing leases, lease classification and initial direct costs for all leases.

9. REVENUE FROM CONTRACTS WITH CUSTOMERS
As a result of the adoption of ASC 606, all revenue transactions are completed at the time of delivery the Company’s goods to its customers. There were deliveries in transit as of December 31, 2019. Therefore, the Company has no outstanding performance obligations as of December 31, 2019. Additionally, the Company has no long-term contracts with its customers, therefore there are no contract balances at fiscal year-end December 31, 2019.
10. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
The Company owns 49% of the subsidiary PCNM. As the Company is directly involved with the management of the entity, the Company considers themselves to be the primary beneficiary, thus requiring consolidation. There has been no change in circumstances since PCNM was founded in late 2017. PCNM is yet to generate any gross revenue to pay for start-up expenses. Accordingly, PCNM will be dissolved. The assets and liabilities that are included in consolidated financial statements include $1,433 of current/total assets and $14,639 of current/total liabilities. There are no intra company liabilities that are eliminated upon consolidation. Due to the nature of the relationship between the two entities, there are no restrictions on the assets and either entity may enter into liability arrangements on behalf of PCNM.
11. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

During March 2020, a global pandemic was declared by the World Health Organization related to the rapidly growing outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus ("COVID-19"). The pandemic has significantly impacted the economic conditions in the U.S., accelerating during the first half of March, as federal, state and local governments react to the public health crisis, creating significant uncertainties in the U.S. economy. In March 2020, we noticed a strong decline in orders from our customers, as businesses around the country began to cease their operations due to COVID-19. In an attempt to mitigate the ongoing impact of the pandemic on our cash flows certain actions were taken. The actions include targeted reductions in discretionary operating expenses such as advertising and payroll expenses, reducing capital expenditures, and reducing travel for business development purposes.
The Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loan is a loan from the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”) that helps businesses keep their workforce employed during the Coronavirus (COVID-19) crisis. SBA will forgive loans if all employees are kept on the payroll for eight weeks and the money is used for payroll, rent, mortgage interest, or utilities. On May 8, 2020, the Company received a PPP loan in the amount of $100,344.
Continued impacts of the pandemic have had a material adverse impact on our revenues, earnings, liquidity and cash flows, and may require additional actions in response, including, but not limited to, employee layoffs, reduced production, or further expense reductions, all in an effort to mitigate such impacts. The extent of the impact of the pandemic on our business and financial results will depend largely on future developments, including the duration of the spread of the outbreak within the U.S., and the related impact on consumer confidence and spending, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. This situation is rapidly changing and additional impacts to the business may arise that we are not aware of currently. While the disruption is currently expected to be temporary, there is uncertainty around the duration. The ultimate impact of the pandemic on the Company’s results of operations, financial position, liquidity or capital resources cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.
