Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company
We are not subject to the ongoing reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) because we are not registering our securities under the Exchange Act. Rather, we will be subject to the more limited reporting requirements under Regulation A, including the obligation to electronically file:
| ● | annual reports (including disclosure relating to our business operations for the preceding two fiscal years, or, if in existence for less than two years, since inception, related party transactions, beneficial ownership of the issuer’s securities, executive officers and directors and certain executive compensation information, management’s discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) of the issuer’s liquidity, capital resources, and results of operations, and two years of audited financial statements), |
| ● | semiannual reports (including disclosure primarily relating to the issuer’s interim financial statements and MD&A) and |
| ● | current reports for certain material events. |
In addition, at any time after completing reporting for the fiscal year in which our offering statement was qualified, if the securities of each class to which this offering statement relates are held of record by fewer than 300 persons and offers or sales are not ongoing, we may immediately suspend our ongoing reporting obligations under Regulation A.
If and when we become subject to the ongoing reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, as an issuer with less than $1.07 billion in total annual gross revenues during our last fiscal year, we will qualify as an “emerging growth company” under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) and this status will be significant. An emerging growth company may take advantage of certain reduced reporting requirements and is relieved of certain other significant requirements that are otherwise generally applicable to public companies. In particular, as an emerging growth company we:
| ● | will not be required to obtain an auditor attestation on our internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002; |
| ● | will not be required to provide a detailed narrative disclosure discussing our compensation principles, objectives and elements and analyzing how those elements fit with our principles and objectives (commonly referred to as “compensation discussion and analysis”); |
| ● | will not be required to obtain a non-binding advisory vote from our shareholders on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements (commonly referred to as the “say-on-pay,” “say-on-frequency” and “say-on-golden-parachute” votes); |
| ● | will be exempt from certain executive compensation disclosure provisions requiring a pay-for-performance graph and CEO pay ratio disclosure; |
| ● | may present only two years of audited financial statements and only two years of related Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, or MD&A; and |
| ● | will be eligible to claim longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards. |
We intend to take advantage of all of these reduced reporting requirements and exemptions, including the longer phase-in periods for the adoption of new or revised financial accounting standards under Section 107 of the JOBS Act. Our election to use the phase-in periods may make it difficult to compare our financial statements to those of non-emerging growth companies and other emerging growth companies that have opted out of the phase-in periods under Section 107 of the JOBS Act.
Under the JOBS Act, we may take advantage of the above-described reduced reporting requirements and exemptions for up to five years after our initial sale of common equity pursuant to a registration statement declared effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or such earlier time that we no longer meet the definition of an emerging growth company. Note that this offering, while a public offering, is not a sale of common equity pursuant to a registration statement, since the offering is conducted pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements. In this regard, the JOBS Act provides that we would cease to be an “emerging growth company” if we have more than $1.07 billion in annual revenues, have more than $700 million in market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates, or issue more than $1 billion in principal amount of non-convertible debt over a three-year period.
Certain of these reduced reporting requirements and exemptions are also available to us due to the fact that we may also qualify, once listed, as a “smaller reporting company” under the Commission’s rules. For instance, smaller reporting companies are not required to obtain an auditor attestation on their assessment of internal control over financial reporting; are not required to provide a compensation discussion and analysis; are not required to provide a pay-for-performance graph or CEO pay ratio disclosure; and may present only two years of audited financial statements and related MD&A disclosure.

RISK FACTORS
The SEC requires the company to identify risks that are specific to its business and its financial condition. The company is still subject to all the same risks that all companies in its business, and all companies in the economy, are exposed to. These include risks relating to economic downturns, political and economic events and technological developments (such as hacking and the ability to prevent hacking). Additionally, early-stage companies are inherently riskier than more developed companies. You should consider general risks as well as specific risks when deciding whether to invest.
Risks relating to GolfSuites business
This is a relatively early stage company and have not yet generated any yearly profits. The company was incorporated in October 2018 and currently operates three facilities. The company and/or its affiliates have been operating the Tulsa Facility since September 2019, the Lubbock Facility since August 2020, and the Baton Rouge Facility since June 2022. During August 2023 the company purchased the Auburn Facility. The Auburn Facility is not currently operational. Further, the company intends to begin development on GS City Club 1during Q4 2023.
Our current and proposed operations are subject to all the business risks associated with relatively new enterprises that are still in growth and/or expansion phases. These include likely fluctuations in operating results as the company reacts to developments in its market, manages its growth, and develops new services as well as the entry of competitors into the market. There is only a limited history upon which an evaluation of its past performance and future prospects in the hospitality and entertainment industry can be made. Statistically, most startup companies fail. While we recorded profits (on an unaudited basis) for the six months ended June 30, 2023, there can be no guarantee that we will be able to continue to do so. We will only be able to pay dividends on any shares once our directors determine that we are financially able to do so, and only after paying dividends to the holders of our Preferred Stock. Since inception, we have not generated sufficient annual revenues to cover operational expenses. There is no assurance that we will be consistently profitable in the next three years or generate sufficient revenues to pay dividends to the holders of our shares.
Our Parent Company has a limited prior performance record. Just as GolfSuites is a relatively new entrant in the market, GolfSuites, Inc. (our “Parent Company”), which provides management services to GolfSuites, has a limited track record of involvement in hospitality and entertainment that investors may assess. Even if the Parent Company did have such prior experience, that experience would not be indicative of its future performance.
The company’s auditor has issued a “going concern” opinion. GolfSuites auditor has issued a “going concern” opinion on their financial statements, which means the company may not be able to succeed as a business without additional financing. GolfSuites was incorporated in October 2018. It has an accumulated deficit of $5,276,699 and $2,746,193 as of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively and $5,613,826 and $3,761,594 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and the six months ended June 30, 2022 respectively. The audit report states that the company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months is dependent upon its ability to generate cash from operating activities and/or to raise additional capital to fund its operations. The company’s failure to raise additional short-term capital could have a negative impact on not only their financial condition but also their ability to remain in business.
As we grow our business, we may not be able to manage our growth successfully. If we are able to increase the scope of our business offerings, our customer and creator base, the volume of our transactions and grow our business, we will face business risks commonly associated with rapidly growing companies, including the risk that existing management, information systems and financial and internal controls may be inadequate to support our growth. We cannot predict whether we will be able to respond on a timely basis, or at all, to the changing demands that our growth may impose on our existing management and infrastructure. For example, increasing demands on our infrastructure and management could cause any of the following to occur or increase:
| · | inadequate internal controls required for a company doing public offerings (including Regulation CF and Regulation A); |
| · | delays in our ability to handle the volume of customers; and |
| · | failure to properly review and supervise personnel to make sure we are compliant with applicable regulations. |
This risk is illustrated by the fact that the Company has restated its previously reported financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022, and related disclosures. The effects of the restatement, including the correction of all errors identified by Company’s management are reflected in the Company’s financial statements and accompanying notes included herein.
The success of GolfSuites business is dependent on its ability to take over existing facilities or to lease or purchase parcels of land and our commercial spaces at favorable prices. GolfSuites is a capital-intensive operation and requires a two-step process prior to operating its larger outdoor facilities. First, GolfSuites has to lease or purchase the facility (if it is not building a facility from the ground up). Second, GolfSuites has to re-brand existing facilities, or build new facilities from the ground up. As of the date of this Offering Circular, the company:
| ● | leases the Tulsa Facility and leases the property that the Tulsa Facility is on, |
| ● | owns the Lubbock Facility but leases the land that the Lubbock facility is on, |
| ● | owns the Baton Rouge facility and leases the property that the Baton Rouge Facility is on, |
| ● | owns a 50% interest in GolfSuites Madison, LLC the company is seeking a buyer for the site, |
| ● | owns the Auburn Facility (to be constructed) and the land that the Auburn Facility is on. |
For its planned smaller indoor facilities it also requires a two-step process prior to operation. First, GolfSuites has to lease or purchase the facility (if it is not building a facility from the ground up). Second, GolfSuites has to re-brand existing facilities, or build new facilities from the ground up.
As of the date of this Offering Circular, the company leases the property that the GS City Club 1 Facility is on and will renovate the existing space to include 8 indoor golf simulation bays, a restaurant and bar that has both indoor and outdoor dining and differentiated membership options.
If this offering does not raise enough capital to make capital improvements on existing facilities, enter additional lease agreements for facilities, or purchase the land that is necessary to begin construction, the company will need to procure external financing for the purchase of the land and/or construction or improvements of the facility.
In the event the company acquires leased property it may not be able to successfully negotiate satisfactory terms regarding the leased space, renew or replace existing leases, on satisfactory terms or at all, any of these items could restrict the company’s ability to grow and retain its existing customers and annual members. Accordingly, the financial condition and results of operations could be harmed. The company may lease certain real estate for the development of various facilities. Potential hurdles that the company may encounter when leasing land include the following:
| ● | Inability to negotiate favorable terms due to market conditions |
| | |
| ● | Inability to negotiate favorable terms due to limited experience to date with these types of transactions. |
| | |
| ● | Inability to renew the lease on favorable terms. |
| | |
| ● | Increase in rental rates in markets in which the company operates. |
| | |
| ● | Inability to expand its portfolio of facilities as quickly as possible. |
| | |
| ● | Long-term and fixed-cost nature of leases in general may limit the company’s operating flexibility. |
The company’s ability to negotiate favorable terms to extend an expiring lease or to secure an alternate location will depend on then-prevailing conditions in the real estate market, such as overall rental cost increases, competition from other would-be tenants for desirable leased spaces and its relationships with current and prospective building owners and landlords, and may depend on other factors that are not within the company’s control. If the company is not able to renew or replace an expiring lease, it will incur significant costs related to vacating that space and redeveloping whatever alternative space the company is able to find, if any. In addition, if the company is forced to vacate a space, the company could lose members who purchased memberships based on the design, location or other attributes of that particular facility and may not be interested in becoming members at another facility.
The company plans to raise significantly more capital and future fundraising rounds could result in dilution. GolfSuites will need to raise additional funds to finance its operations or fund its business plan. Even if the company manages to raise subsequent financing or borrowing rounds, the terms of those borrowing rounds might be more favorable to new investors or creditors than to existing investors such as you. New equity investors or lenders could have greater rights to the company’s financial resources (such as liens over its assets) compared to existing shareholders. Additional financings could also dilute your ownership stake, potentially drastically. See “Dilution” and the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for more information.
Success in the hospitality and entertainment industry is highly unpredictable and there is no guarantee the company’s content will be successful in the market. The company’s success will depend on the popularity of its hospitality and entertainment facilities. Consumer tastes, trends and preferences frequently change and are notoriously difficult to predict. If the company fails to anticipate future consumer preferences in the hospitality and entertainment business, its business and financial performance will likely suffer. The hospitality and entertainment industry is fiercely competitive. The company may not be able to develop facilities that will become profitable. The company may also invest in facilities that end up losing money. Even if one of its facilities is successful, the company may lose money in others.
The company may not be able to attract and retain individuals interested in annual memberships at its facilities, and/or attract drop-in/daily memberships, which could harm its business, financial condition and results of operations.
The company’s success depends on its ability to:
| ● | Provide dining and leisure experiences that members and daily guests are interested in paying for. |
| | |
| ● | Maintain or increase revenues generated from food and beverage sales. |
| | |
| ● | Attract consistent suite rentals. |
| | |
| ● | Attract individuals interested in paying for daily memberships. |
| | |
| ● | Attract individuals interested in paying for annual memberships. |
| | |
| ● | Maintain or increase revenues generated from corporate events. |
| | |
| ● | Maintain or increase revenues from retail sales. |
Changes in consumer financial condition, leisure tastes and preferences, particularly those affecting the popularity of golf, and other social and demographic trends could adversely affect its business. Significant periods where attrition rates exceed enrolment rates or where facilities usage is below historical levels would have a material adverse effect on its business, results of operations and financial condition. If the company cannot attract new members, retain its existing members, its financial condition and results of operations could be harmed.
GolfSuites operates in a highly competitive market. GolfSuites plans to operate in a highly competitive market and faces intense competition. Its competitors include:
| ● | Top Golf |
| | |
| ● | DriveShack |
| | |
| ● | Big Shots |
| | |
| ● | ClubCorp. |
| | |
| ● | Arccis Golf |
| | |
| ● | Tog Golf Swing Suite |
| | |
| ● | Birdie Club Indoor Golf |
| | |
| ● | The Par Pub |
Many of the company’s current and potential competitors have greater resources, longer histories, more customers, and greater brand recognition. Competitors may secure better terms from vendors, adopt more aggressive pricing and devote more resources to technology, infrastructure, fulfillment, and marketing.
Further, GolfSuites properties, especially the indoor facilities, will compete on a local and regional level with restaurants and other business, dining and social clubs. The number and variety of competitors in this business will vary based on the location and setting of each facility. Some facilities may be situated in intensely competitive upscale urban areas characterized by frequent innovations in the products and services offered by competing restaurants and other business, dining and social clubs. In addition, in most regions, the competitive landscape is in constant flux as new restaurants and other social and meeting venues open or expand their amenities. As a result of these characteristics, the supply in a given region may exceed the demand for such facilities, and any increase in the number or quality of restaurants and other social and meeting venues, or the products and services they provide, in such region could significantly impact the ability of the company’s properties to attract and retain members, which could harm their business and results of operations.
Competition in the “alternative venues for recreational pursuits” industry could have a material adverse effect on the company’s business and results of operations. GolfSuites properties compete on a local and regional level with alternative venues for recreational pursuits. The company’s results of operations could be affected by the availability of, and demand for, alternative venues for recreational pursuits, such as multi-use sports and athletic centers. In addition, member-owned and individual privately-owned clubs may be able to create a perception of exclusivity that the company has difficulty replicating. To the extent these alternatives succeed in diverting actual or prospective members away from the company’s facilities or affects its membership rates, the company’s business and results of operations could be harmed.
The restaurant industry is highly competitive. If we are not able to compete successfully, our business, financial condition and results of operations would be adversely affected. GolfSuites properties compete on a local and regional level with restaurants. GolfSuites’ hospitality business is a large driver of its revenues. The restaurant industry is highly competitive with respect to taste preferences, price, food quality and selection, customer service, brand reputation, digital engagement, advertising and promotional initiatives, and the location, attractiveness and maintenance of restaurants. If consumer or dietary preferences change, if our marketing efforts are unsuccessful, or if our restaurants are unable to compete successfully with other restaurant outlets, our business could be adversely affected. If we are unable to continue to maintain our distinctiveness and compete effectively, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
Customer complaints or litigation on behalf of GolfSuites customers or employees may adversely affect its business, results of operations or financial condition. The company’s business may be adversely affected by legal or governmental proceedings brought by or on behalf of their customers or employees. Regardless of whether any claims against the company are valid or whether they are liable, claims may be expensive to defend and may divert time and money away from operations and hurt the company’s financial performance. A judgment significantly in excess of their insurance coverage or not covered by insurance could have a material adverse effect on the company’s business, results of operations or financial condition. Also, adverse publicity resulting from these allegations may materially affect the company.
The company’s insurance may not be sufficient. There can be no assurance that its insurance is sufficient to cover the full extent of all of its losses or liabilities for which it is insured. Further, insurance policies expire annually, and the company cannot guarantee that it will be able to renew insurance policies on favorable terms, or at all. In addition, if it, or other leisure facilities, sustain significant losses or make significant insurance claims, then its ability to obtain future insurance coverage at commercially reasonable rates could be materially adversely affected. If the company’s insurance coverage is not adequate, or it becomes subject to damages that cannot by law be insured against, such as punitive damages or certain intentional misconduct by their employees, this could adversely affect the company’s financial condition or results of operations.
The company may not be able to operate its facilities or obtain and maintain licenses and permits necessary for such operation, in compliance with laws, regulations and other requirements, which could adversely affect its business, results of operations or financial condition. Each facility is subject to licensing and regulation, including by alcoholic beverage control, amusement, health, sanitation, safety, building code and fire agencies in the state, county and/or municipality in which the facility is located.
Each facility is required to obtain a license to sell alcoholic beverages on the premises from a state authority and, in certain locations, county and municipal authorities. Typically, licenses must be renewed annually and may be revoked or suspended for cause at any time. In some states, the loss of a license for cause with respect to one facility may lead to the loss of licenses at all facilities in that state and could make it more difficult to obtain additional licenses in that state. Alcoholic beverage control regulations relate to numerous aspects of the daily operations of each facility, including minimum age of patrons and employees, hours of operation, advertising, wholesale purchasing, inventory control and handling and storage and dispensing of alcoholic beverages. The failure to receive or retain a liquor license, or any other required permit or license, in a particular location, or to continue to qualify for, or renew licenses, could have a material adverse effect on operations and the company’s ability to obtain such a license or permit in other locations.
The company may be subject to “dram shop” statutes in states where its facilities may be located. These statutes generally provide a person injured by an intoxicated person the right to recover damages from an establishment that wrongfully served alcoholic beverages to the intoxicated individual. Recent litigation against restaurant chains has resulted in significant judgments and settlements under dram shop statutes. Because these cases often seek punitive damages, which may not be covered by insurance, such litigation could have an adverse impact on the company’s business, results of operations or financial condition.
As a result of operating certain entertainment games and attractions, including skill-based games that offer redemption prizes, the company is subject to amusement licensing and regulation by the states, counties and municipalities in which its facilities are to be located. These laws and regulations can vary significantly by state, county, and municipality and, in some jurisdictions, may require the company to modify their business operations or alter the mix of redemption games and simulators that they offer.
Moreover, as more states and local communities implement legalized gambling, the laws and corresponding enabling regulations may also be applicable to the company’s redemption games and regulators may create new licensing requirements, taxes or fees, or restrictions on the various types of redemption games the company offers. Furthermore, other states, counties and municipalities may make changes to existing laws to further regulate legalized gaming and illegal gambling. Adoption of these laws, or adverse interpretation of existing laws, could cause the company to modify its plans for its facilities and if the company creates facilities in these jurisdictions it may be required to alter the mix of games, modify certain games, limit the number of tickets that may be won by a customer from a redemption game, change the mix of prizes that the company may offer or terminate the use of specific games, any of which could adversely affect the company’s operations. If the company fails to comply with such laws and regulations, the company may be subject to various sanctions and/or penalties and fines or may be required to cease operations until it achieves compliance, which could have an adverse effect on the company’s business and financial results.
The company has concentrated its investments in golf-related real estate and facilities, which are subject to numerous risks, including the risk that the values of their investments may decline if there is a prolonged downturn in real estate values. Currently, a majority of the company’s operations consist almost entirely of golf properties, some of those facilities are approximately 10-20 acres in size, that encompass a large amount of real estate holdings. Accordingly, the company is subject to the risks associated with holding real estate investments. A prolonged decline in the popularity of golf could adversely affect the value of its real estate holdings and could make it difficult to sell facilities or businesses.
Generally, all of the company’s real estate holdings will be subject to risks typically associated with investments in real estate. The investment returns available from equity investments in real estate depend in large part on the amount of income earned, expenses incurred and capital appreciation generated by the related properties. In addition, a variety of other factors affect income from properties and real estate values, including governmental regulations, real estate, insurance, zoning, tax and eminent domain laws, interest rate levels and the availability of financing. For example, new or existing real estate zoning or tax laws can make it more expensive and time-consuming to expand, modify or renovate older properties. Under eminent domain laws, governments can take real property. Sometimes this taking is for less compensation than the owner believes the property is worth. Any of these factors could have an adverse impact on the company’s business, financial condition or results of operations.
The illiquidity of real estate may make it difficult for the company to dispose of one or more of its properties or negatively affect its ability to profitably sell such properties and access liquidity. The company may from time to time decide to dispose of one or more of its real estate asset. Because real estate holdings generally, are relatively illiquid, the company may not be able to dispose of real estate assets on a timely basis. In some circumstances, sales may result in investment losses which could adversely affect the company’s financial condition. The illiquidity of its real estate assets could mean that it continues to operate a facility that management has identified for disposition. Failure to dispose of a real estate asset in a timely fashion, or at all, could adversely affect the company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
Specifically, the company purchased a 50% ownership interest in the Madison Facility during May 2022. As of December 31, 2022, development of the Madison site was discontinued and the company has been seeking a buyer for the site. As of the date of this offering circular the company is still seeking a buyer for the site. As noted above, the company cannot access its liquidity until the property is sold, resulting in negative effects on the company’s profitability.
The company’s development and growth strategy depends on its ability to identify, and fund new entertainment venues and operate them profitably. The company’s ability to identify and fund various facilities, on a timely and cost-effective basis, or at all, is dependent on a number of factors, many of which are beyond its control, including but not limited to the company’s ability to:
| ● | Find quality locations. |
| | |
| ● | Reach acceptable agreements regarding the lease or purchase of locations, and comply with the company’s commitments under its lease agreements. |
| | |
| ● | Raise or have available an adequate amount of cash or currently available financing for rebranding, constructing and opening facilities, as applicable. |
| | |
| ● | Comply with applicable zoning, licensing, land use and environmental regulations. |
| | |
| ● | Timely hire, train and retain the skilled management and other employees’ necessary to meet staffing needs. |
| | |
| ● | Obtain, for acceptable cost, required permits and approvals, including liquor licenses Even if the company succeeds in opening entertainment golf facilities on a timely and cost-effective basis, the company may nonetheless be unable to attract enough customers to these new venues because potential customers may be unfamiliar with its venue or concept, entertainment and menu options might not appeal to them and the company may face competition from other food and leisure venues. |
GolfSuites depends on a small management team and may need to hire more people to be successful. The success of GolfSuites will greatly depend on the skills, connections and experiences of the executives, Gerald Ellenburg, Ryan Koenig, Ryan Ellenburg, and Scott McCurry. Though, the Parent Company has entered into employment agreements with Gerald Ellenburg, the company has not entered into employment agreements with any of the aforementioned executives. There is no guarantee that the executives will agree to terms and execute employment agreements that are favorable to the company. Should any of them discontinue working for GolfSuites, there is no assurance that the company will continue. Further, there is no assurance that the company will be able to identify, hire and retain the right people for the various key positions.
Key Man Risk. The company’s founder, Jerry Ellenburg is a serial entrepreneur. The company relies heavily on his expertise and experience, as well as the expertise and experience of our officers including Ryan Koenig, Ryan Ellenburg and Scott McCurry. In the event that any of these individuals exit the business the company may experience following:
| ● | financial loss; |
| | |
| ● | a disruption to the organization's future projects; |
| | |
| ● | damage to the brand; and |
| | |
| ● | potentially supporting a competitor. |
GolfSuites may not be able to protect all of its intellectual property. GolfSuites will be using the intellectual property of the Parent Company, including the following trademarks that have been filed:
| ● | GolfSuites, |
| | |
| ● | Off The Deck, |
| | |
| ● | Find Your Suite Spot, and |
| | |
| ● | Where Golf Entertainment and Game Improvement Meet. |
The profitability of GolfSuites may depend in part on the Parent Company’s ability, to effectively protect its intellectual property and the ability of GolfSuites to operate without inadvertently infringing on the proprietary rights of others. Any litigation protecting the Parent Company’s intellectual property and defending its original content could have a material adverse effect on the company’s business, operating results and financial condition regardless of the outcome of such litigation.
The company’s business could be harmed by the occurrence of natural disasters or other emergencies, including the COVID-19 pandemic or other pandemic diseases. The occurrence of a natural disaster, such as an earthquake, tsunami, fire, flood or hurricane, or the further outbreak of a pandemic disease, such as COVID-19 or a variant thereof, could significantly adversely affect the company’s business. A natural disaster or a pandemic disease could affect the company’s business in any or all of the following areas:
| ● | Operational disruption: Public health crises can lead to significant operational disruptions, including government-mandated lockdowns, travel restrictions, and supply chain disruptions. These disruptions could impact the company's ability to deliver services, and maintain normal business operations. |
| | |
| ● | Workforce Challenges. |
| | |
| ● | Financial Impact: GolfSuites may experience revenue declines due to reduced customer demand or operational disruptions. Increased costs related to health and safety measures, employee support, and adapting to new ways of working can also impact profitability. |
| | |
| ● | Regulatory Measures: Governments often implement measures to contain the spread of diseases, such as lockdowns, travel restrictions, and business closures. If implemented, these measures would have direct impact on GolfSuites ability to operate and generate revenue. |
| | |
| ● | Reputation and Brand: How GolfSuites responds to a public health crisis can significantly affect its reputation and brand perception. Mishandling communication or failing to prioritize employee and customer safety can lead to long-term damage. |
| | |
| ● | Insurance Coverage: The adequacy of insurance coverage for business interruptions caused by public health crises is a significant consideration. GolfSuites may find that standard insurance policies do not adequately cover pandemic-related losses. |
| | |
| ● | Long-Term Economic Impact: Public health crises can have lasting economic effects, leading to changes in consumer behavior, government policies, and global economic trends. GolfSuites may need to adapt their strategies to navigate a post-crisis landscape. |
Risks relating to this offering and GolfSuites shares
Holders of our Preferred Stock are entitled to payments prior to the payment of dividends to holders of our Common Stock.
Holders of our outstanding Preferred Stock are entitled to cumulative dividends which accrue on a daily basis in arrears at the rate of 8% per year on the sum of the invested amount sum plus all unpaid accrued and accumulated dividends. These payments must be made prior to the payment of dividends to holders of Common Stock. See “Securities Being Offered – Preferred Stock – Dividends]”. Each year we are required to pay approximately $657,800 in dividends to our current holders of Preferred Stock.
Holders of our Preferred Stock are entitled to potentially significant liquidation preferences over holders of our Common Stock if we are liquidated, including upon a sale of our company.
Holders of our outstanding Preferred Stock have liquidation preferences over holders of Common Stock being offered in this offering. This liquidation preference is paid if the amount a holder of Preferred Stock would receive under the liquidation preference is greater than the amount such holder would have received if such holder’s shares of Preferred Stock had been converted to Common Stock immediately prior to the liquidation event. See “Securities Being Offered – All Classes of Common Stock – Liquidation Rights”. If a liquidation event, including a sale of our company, were to occur that resulted in a distribution of less than approximately $8.2 million, the holders of our Preferred Stock could be entitled to all proceeds of cash distributions.
Distributions will be only made if the company declares dividends and if permitted under Delaware law, which is subject to change, and in the sole discretion of the board of directors. Pursuant to section 170 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“Delaware Law”), dividends may be paid out of “surplus” even in the absence of profits. Under section 154, “surplus” may be defined by the board of directors, in their sole discretion, but generally may not be less than the par value of the shares issued. Accordingly, most of the proceeds of this offering may be considered surplus. However, Delaware Law is subject to change, and the company cannot guarantee that dividend payments will always be permitted under Delaware Law. Further, the company in its sole discretion may decide not to declare and pay dividends. At which point, the dividends will accrue to be paid at a later date, or if at all.
The company is responsible for certain administrative burdens relating to taxation. Federal law required that the company report annually all distributions to shareholders on a Form 1099-DIV. The company is responsible for ensuring that the extent to which such distributions constitute a distribution of earnings and profits is correctly identified on form 1099-DIV. This reporting requirement adds to the administrative burdens of the company.
The offering price has been arbitrarily set by the company. GolfSuites has set the price of its Class A Common Stock at $10.00 per share. Valuations for companies at GolfSuites stage are purely speculative. The company’s valuation has not been validated by any independent third party and may fall precipitously. It is a question of whether you, the investor, are willing to pay this price for a percentage ownership of a start-up company. You should not invest if you disagree with this valuation.
There is no minimum amount set as a condition to closing this offering. Because this is a “best efforts” offering with no minimum, the company will have access to any funds tendered. This might mean that any investment made could be the only investment in this offering, leaving the company without adequate capital to pursue its business plan or even to cover the expenses of this offering.
The officers of the Parent Company control the company and the company does not currently have any independent directors. The Parent Company is currently the company’s controlling shareholder. Moreover, the company’s executive officers and directors, through their ownership in the Parent Company, are currently GolfSuites controlling shareholders. As holders of the Class B Common Stock which gives the Parent Company 5 votes per share, as opposed to 1 vote per share for holders of Class A Common Stock and Class A Preferred Stock, the Parent Company will continue to hold a majority of the voting power of all the company’s equity stock and therefore control the board at the conclusion of this offering. Even if the Parent Company were to own as little as 16.66% of the equity securities of the company, the Parent Company would still control a majority of the voting stock. This could lead to unintentional subjectivity in matters of corporate governance, especially in matters of compensation and related party transactions. The company does not benefit from the advantages of having independent directors, including bringing an outside perspective on strategy and control, adding new skills and knowledge that may not be available within the company, and having extra checks and balances to prevent fraud and produce reliable financial reports.
The exclusive forum provisions in the company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, and the subscription agreement may have the effect of limiting an investor’s ability to bring legal action against the company and could limit an investor’s ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes. Article VII of the company’s Certificate of Incorporation as amended, provides that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware is the exclusive forum for the following types of actions or proceedings under Delaware statutory or common law:
| · | any derivative action or proceeding brought on our behalf; |
| · | any action asserting a breach of fiduciary duty; |
| · | any action asserting a claim against us arising under the Delaware General Corporation Law, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, or our amended and restated bylaws; and |
| · | any action asserting a claim against us that is governed by the internal-affairs doctrine. |
However, Article VII does not apply to actions arising under Federal securities laws or to the extent that its application would violate any Federal law.
Further, under Section 6 of the subscription agreement investors agree to resolve disputes arising under the subscription agreement that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or alternatively if that is not enforceable competent federal courts in the State of Delaware are the exclusive forums for the purpose of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of or based upon the agreement. This section does not apply to claims arising out of Exchange Act, including derivative actions.
See “Securities Being Offered – All Classes of Stock – Forum Selection Provisions.”
While the Delaware courts have determined that such choice of forum provisions are facially valid, a stockholder may nevertheless seek to bring a claim in a venue other than those designated in the exclusive forum provisions. In such instance, we would expect to assert the validity and enforceability of the exclusive forum provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation. This may require significant additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions and there can be no assurance that the provisions will be enforced by a court in those other jurisdictions.
These exclusive forum provisions may limit a stockholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with us or our directors, officers, or other employees, which may discourage lawsuits against us and our directors, officers and other employees. If a court were to find either exclusive-forum provision in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving the dispute in other jurisdictions, which could seriously harm our business.
Investors in this offering may not be entitled to a jury trial with respect to claims arising under the subscription agreement and claims where the forum selection provision is applicable, which could result in less favorable outcomes to the plaintiff(s) in any such action. Investors in this offering will be bound by the subscription agreement, which includes a provision under which investors waive the right to a jury trial of any claim they may have against the company arising out of or relating to the subscription agreement, including any claim under the federal securities laws. The forum selection provisions in the Certificate of Incorporation and the subscription agreement provide that for certain lawsuits the Court of Chancery in Delaware will be the exclusive forum. The Court of Chancery in Delaware is a non-jury trial court and therefore those claims will not be adjudicated by a jury. Further, the waiver of jury trial provision may increase the costs to bring a claim, limit access to information and other imbalances of resources between the company and shareholders. These provisions can discourage claims or limit shareholders ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that they find favorable. See “Securities Being Offered – All Classes of Stock – Jury Trial Waiver” and “Securities Being Offered – All Classes of Stock – Forum Selection Provisions.”
If the company opposed a jury trial demand based on the waiver, a court would determine whether the waiver was enforceable based on the facts and circumstances of that case in accordance with the applicable state and federal law. To the company’s knowledge, the enforceability of a contractual pre-dispute jury trial waiver in connection with claims arising under the federal securities laws has not been finally adjudicated by a federal court. However, the company believes that a contractual pre-dispute jury trial waiver provision is generally enforceable, including under the laws of the State of Delaware, which governs the subscription agreement, in the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware. In determining whether to enforce a contractual pre-dispute jury trial waiver provision, courts will generally consider whether the visibility of the jury trial waiver provision within the agreement is sufficiently prominent such that a party knowingly, intelligently and voluntarily waived the right to a jury trial. The company believes that this is the case with respect to the subscription agreement. Investors should consult legal counsel regarding the jury waiver provision before entering into the subscription agreement.
If an investor brings a claim against the company in connection with matters arising under the subscription agreement, including claims under federal securities laws, an investor may not be entitled to a jury trial with respect to those claims, which may have the effect of limiting and discouraging lawsuits against the company. If a lawsuit is brought against the company under the subscription agreement, it may be heard only by a judge or justice of the applicable trial court, which would be conducted according to different civil procedures and may result in different outcomes than a trial by jury would have had, including results that could be less favorable to the plaintiff(s) in such an action.
Nevertheless, if this jury trial waiver provision is not permitted by applicable law, an action could proceed under the terms of the subscription agreement with a jury trial. No condition, stipulation or provision of the subscription agreement serves as a waiver by any holder of common shares or by us of compliance with any substantive provision of the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations promulgated under those laws.
In addition, when the shares are transferred, the transferee is required to agree to all the same conditions, obligations and restrictions applicable to the shares or to the transferor with regard to ownership of the shares, that were in effect immediately prior to the transfer of the shares of Class A Common Stock, including but not limited to the subscription agreement.
There is no current market for GolfSuites' shares. There is no formal marketplace for the resale of the company’s securities. Shares of the company’s Class A Common Stock may eventually be traded to the extent any demand and/or trading platform(s) exists. However, there is no guarantee there will be demand for the shares, or a trading platform that allows you to sell them. The company does not have plans to apply for or otherwise seek trading or quotation of its Class A Common Stock on an over-the-counter market. It is also hard to predict if the company will ever be acquired by a bigger company. Investors should assume that they may not be able to liquidate their investment or pledge their shares as collateral for some time.
Using a credit card to purchase shares may impact the return on your investment as well as subject you to other risks inherent in this form of payment. Investors in this offering have the option of paying for their investment with a credit card, which is not usual in the traditional investment markets. Transaction fees charged by your credit card company (which can reach 5% of transaction value if considered a cash advance) and interest charged on unpaid card balances (which can reach almost 25% in some states) add to the effective purchase price of the shares you buy. See “Plan of Distribution and Selling Securityholders.” The cost of using a credit card may also increase if you do not make the minimum monthly card payments and incur late fees. Using a credit card is a relatively new form of payment for securities and will subject you to other risks inherent in this form of payment, including that, if you fail to make credit card payments (e.g. minimum monthly payments), you risk damaging your credit score and payment by credit card may be more susceptible to abuse than other forms of payment. Moreover, where a third-party payment processor is used, as in this offering, your recovery options in the case of disputes may be limited. The increased costs due to transaction fees and interest may reduce the return on your investment.
The SEC’s Office of Investor Education and Advocacy issued an Investor Alert dated February 14, 2018 entitled: Credit Cards and Investments – A Risky Combination, which explains these and other risks you may want to consider before using a credit card to pay for your investment.
You may not be able to participate in potential merger and acquisition transactions. Investors should be aware that under Rule 145 under the Securities Act of 1933 if they invest in a company through Regulation A and/or Regulation CF and that Company becomes involved in a merger or acquisition, there may be significant regulatory implications. Under Rule 145, when a company plans to acquire another and offers its shares as part of the deal, the transaction may be deemed an offer of securities to the target company's investors, because investors who can vote (or for whom a proxy is voting) are making an investment decision regarding the securities they would receive. All investors, even those with non-voting shares, may have rights with respect to the merger depending on state laws. This means the acquirer’s “offer” to the target’s investors would require registration or an exemption from registration (such as Reg D or Reg CF), the burden of which can be substantial. As a result, non-accredited investors may have their shares repurchased rather than receiving shares in the acquiring company or participating in the acquisition. This may result in investors’ shares being repurchased at a value determined by a third party, which may be at a lesser value than the original purchase price. Investors should consider the possibility of a cash buyout in such circumstances, which may not be commensurate with the long-term investment they anticipate.
Risks Related to Certain Conflicts of Interest
There are conflicts of interest between the company, its management and their affiliates. The Parent Company currently holds all of the issued Class B Common Stock of GolfSuites. GolfSuites is also affiliated with ERC Communities, Inc. f/ka ERC HomeBuilders, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “ERC Entities”). Gerald Ellenburg is the CEO for the Parent Company, GolfSuites, and the ERC Entities. Therefore, it is likely that conflicts of interest will arise between the affiliates. Conflicts of interest could include, but are not limited to the following:
| ● | Use of time. |
| | |
| ● | Use of human capital. |
| | |
| ● | Competition regarding the acquisition of properties and other assets. |
The interests of the Parent Company the company and the company’s other affiliates may conflict with your interests. The company’s Certificate of Incorporation, Certificate of Designations, bylaws and Delaware law provide company management with broad powers and authority that could result in one or more conflicts of interest between your interests and those of the officers and directors of the Parent Company, the company, and the company’s other affiliates. This risk is increased by the affiliated entities being controlled by the Parent Company who currently owns all of the company’s Class B Common Stock. In addition, all of the company’s officers and directors currently have an interest in the Parent Company, through ownership and/or as an officer or director in the Parent Company. Potential conflicts of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
| ● | The Parent Company and the company’s other affiliates will not be required to disgorge any profits or fees or other compensation they may receive from any other business they own separate from the company, and you will not be entitled to receive or share in any of the profits, return, fees or compensation from any other business owned and operated by the management and their affiliates for their own benefit. |
| ● | GolfSuites may engage the Parent Company, or other companies affiliated with GolfSuites to perform services, and determination for the terms of those services will not be conducted at arms’ length negotiations. |

Loans issued by The Parent Company to GolfSuites may not be made at arm’s length. The Parent Company has made loans to GolfSuites. During 2022 and Interim 2023 the parent entity contributed $2,696,442 and $27,441 to the company as working capital to cover expenses and costs while preparing for the various securities offerings. The total of these advances was converted to Additional Paid-in Capital in 2022 and the six months ended June 30, 2023. It is likely that these previous transactions have not been at arm’s length and may not be at arms-length in the future. Therefore, there is no way to assure third parties that the Parent Company and GolfSuites will be acting in their own self-interest and not subject to pressure or duress from the other party.
The Parent Company and GolfSuites intend to share some services. The Parent Company and GolfSuites will share the following services:
| ● | Licensing for the use of the name and brand identity. |
Internal transactions incorporating products and services, fee sharing, cost allocations, and financing activities can create inefficiency, financial exposures and reporting risk. This arrangement could result in potential actual or perceived conflicts of interest.
If the Parent Company, the company’s manager, were to file for bankruptcy or otherwise liquidate the company’s result and operations, could be negatively affected. GolfSuites relies on the Parent Company for certain management services. While the company intends to continue its operations if the Parent Company were ever to file for bankruptcy or otherwise liquidate, there is no guarantee that the company would be able to do so. If the Parent Company were to enter bankruptcy proceedings or to otherwise liquidate, the company would be required to find other ways to meet the needs of its operations and business. Obtaining such alternative services, if available at all, could result in delays in the disbursement of distributions or the filing of reports or could require the company to pay significant fees to another company that it would engage to perform management services for it.
DILUTION
Dilution means a reduction in value, control or earnings of the shares the investor owns.
Immediate dilution
An early-stage company typically sells its shares (or grants options over its shares) to its founders and early employees at a very low cash cost, because they are, in effect, putting their “sweat equity” into the company. When the company seeks cash investments from outside investors, like you, the new investors typically pay a much larger sum for their shares than the founders or earlier investors, which means that the cash value of your stake is diluted because all the shares are worth the same amount, and you paid more than earlier investors for your shares.
The following table compares the price that new investors are paying for their shares with the effective cash price paid by existing shareholders, giving effect to full conversion of all outstanding convertible notes and assuming that the shares are sold at $10.00 per share. The schedule presents shares and pricing as issued and reflects all transactions since inception, which gives investors a better picture of what they will pay for their investment compared to the company’s insiders than just including such transactions for the last 12 months, which is what the SEC requires.
The following table presents the approximate effective cash price paid for all shares and potential shares issuable by the company as of February 14, 2024.
| | Date Issued | | Issued Shares | | | Potential Shares | | | Total Issued & Potential Shares | | | Effective Cash Price per Share at Issuance or Potential Conversion | | | Total Proceeds for Issuance of Shares | |

The following table illustrates the dilution that new investors will experience upon investment in the company relative to existing holders of its securities. Because this calculation is based on the net tangible assets of the company, the company is calculating based on its net tangible book value of $3,925,866 as of June 30, 2023, as included in its audited financial statements.
The offering costs assumed in the following table includes up to $3,900,000 in commissions as well as $2,100,000 for marketing, technology, legal, accounting, and Edgarization fees incurred for this offering.
The table presents four scenarios for the convenience of the reader: a $15,000,000 raise, a $30,000,000 raise from this offering, a $45,000,000 raise from this offering, and a fully subscribed $60,000,000 raise from this offering (the maximum offering).

Future dilution
Another important way of looking at dilution is the dilution that happens due to future actions by the company. The investor’s stake in a company could be diluted due to the company issuing additional shares. In other words, when the company issues more shares, the percentage of the company that you own will go down, even though the value of the company may go up. You will own a smaller piece of a larger company. This increase in number of shares outstanding could result from a stock offering (such as an initial public offering, another crowdfunding round, a venture capital round, angel investment), employees exercising stock options, or by conversion of certain instruments (e.g. convertible bonds, preferred shares or warrants) into stock.
If the company decides 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 the company offers dividends, and most early stage companies are unlikely to offer dividends, preferring to invest any earnings into the company).
The type of dilution that hurts early-stage investors most often occurs when the company sells more shares in a “down round,” meaning at a lower valuation than in earlier offerings. An example of how this might occur is as follows (numbers are for illustrative purposes only):
| ● | In June 2023 Jane invests $20,000 for shares that represent 2% of a company valued at $1 million. |
| | |
| ● | In December, the company is doing very well and sells $5 million in shares to venture capitalists on a valuation (before the new investment) of $10 million. Jane now owns only 1.3% of the company but her stake is worth $200,000. |
| | |
| ● | In June 2024, the company has run into serious problems and in order to stay afloat it raises $1 million at a valuation of only $2 million (the “down round”). Jane now owns only 0.89% of the company and her stake is worth only $26,660. |
This type of 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 number 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 the 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 the company. Dilution can make drastic changes to the value of each share, ownership percentage, voting control, and earnings per share.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The company also intends to develop golf driving range simulator lounges under the brand name GolfSuites Lounges.

It is not anticipated that GolfSuites Lounges will have membership options.
Sourcing GolfSuite City Clubs and GolfSuites Lounge Facilities
The company intends to use similar criteria for sourcing the GolfSuites City Clubs and GolfSuites Lounges.

Market Sector
The company participates in the recreational sporting and entertainment facilities market. The company believes this market to be young, fast-growing and under-served. This market overlaps three growing, highly profitable markets: the golf market, the recreation/sporting entertainment sector and the food and beverage portion of the hospitality industry. The company competes for revenues from customer spending in each of these three sectors.
The company believes that the food and beverage sales at GolfSuites City Clubs and GolfSuites Lounges will be responsible for a large percentage of total revenue.

CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
The company is subject to various conflicts of interest arising out of its relationship with the Parent Company. The company discusses these conflicts below.
General
The Parent Company currently holds all of the issued Class B Common Stock of GolfSuites. The Parent Company is also affiliated with ERC Communities, Inc, f/k/a ERC HomeBuilders, Inc, and its related entities (collectively, the “ERC Entities”). The ERC Entities focus on the development and sale of a built-for rent properties in the United States. Gerald Ellenburg is the CEO for The Parent Company, the company and the ERC Entities (the “Affiliated Executives”).
These Affiliated Executives have legal obligations with respect to the Parent Company and the ERC Entities that are similar to their obligations to the company. In the future, these persons and other affiliates of the Parent Company and the ERC Entities may organize and or acquire for their own account, entertainment and hospitality facilities that may have been suitable for GolfSuites.
Allocation of GolfSuites Affiliates’ Time
Currently, The Tulsa Facility and the Lubbock Facility rely on Scott McCurry, to run the day-to day operations of the facilities. However, the company continues to rely on the Parent Company’s executive officers and other professionals who act on behalf of the Parent Company, for the day-to-day operation of its business, including sourcing locations, developing and/or sourcing future facilities, and capital raising. As the business matures, the company’s intent is to develop its own management team to take over the day-to-day operations of business. Until that occurs and as a result of the Affiliated Executives competing responsibilities, their obligations to other investors and the fact that they will continue to engage in other business activities on behalf of themselves and others, they will face conflicts of interest in allocating their time to GolfSuites and other entities and other business activities in which they are involved.
Receipt of Fees and Other Compensation by the Parent Company and its Affiliates
The Parent Company and its affiliates will receive substantial fees from the company, which fees will not be negotiated at arm’s length. These fees could influence the Parent Company’s advice to the company as well as the judgment of the Affiliated Executives of the Parent Company. For additional information see “The Company’s Business – Management Services from the Parent Company” for conflicts relating to the payments between the Parent Company and GolfSuites.

The company has formalized some of these borrowings but expects to repay all of these amounts whether a formal promissory note exists or not. The agreements are between related parties. Therefore, there is no guarantee that rates or terms are commensurate with arm’s-length arrangements.

Either party can terminate the agreement provided 180 days written notice has been given to the other party prior to the end of the current term. See Exhibit 6.1 which appears as an exhibit to the Offering Statement of which this Offering Circular forms a part.
Relationship with ERC Communities, Inc.
Some of the parties involved with the operation and management of the company, including Gerald Ellenburg, Ryan Ellenburg and David Morris, have other relationships that may create disincentives to act in the best interest of the company and its investors. These parties are also involved with ERC Communities, Inc. and its subsidiaries in similar capacities. These conflicts may inhibit or interfere with the sound and profitable operation of the company.

The following is a summary of the rights of GolfSuites capital stock as provided in its Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation, Certificate of Incorporation, Certificate of Designations, and Bylaws, which have been filed as exhibits to the Offering Statement of which this Offering Circular forms a part.
For a complete description of GolfSuites capital stock, you should refer to its Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation, Certificate of Incorporation, Certificate of Designations and Bylaws, and applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law.
Class A Common Stock
Voting Rights.
Each holder of GolfSuites Class A Common Stock is entitled to one vote for each share on all matters submitted to a vote of the shareholders. Holders of Class A Common Stock at all times shall vote together with the holders of Class B Common Stock and Class A Preferred Stock as a single class on all matters (including the election of directors) submitted to vote or for the consent of the stockholders of GolfSuites.
Class B Common Stock
Voting Rights.
Each holder of GolfSuites Class B Common Stock is entitled to five votes for each share on all matters submitted to a vote of the shareholders. Holders of Class B Common Stock at all times shall vote together with the holders of Class A Common Stock and Class A Preferred Stock as a single class on all matters (including the election of directors) submitted to vote or for the consent of the stockholders of GolfSuites.
Conversion Rights.
Each share of Class B Common Stock is convertible into one share of Class A Common Stock at the option of the holder at any time upon written notice to GolfSuites.
All Classes of Common Stock
Dividends.
Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any then outstanding class of capital stock having prior rights to dividends (including the company’s Class A Preferred Stock), shareholders of GolfSuites Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the board of directors out of legally available funds. Any dividends in excess of dividends payable to holders of the Class A Preferred Stock, will be paid ratably among the holders of Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock and Class A Preferred Stock on an as-converted basis. GolfSuites has never declared nor paid cash dividends on any of its capital stock and currently does not anticipate paying any cash dividends after this offering or in the foreseeable future on its Common Stock.
Liquidation Rights.
In the event of GolfSuites liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of GolfSuites Class A and Class B Common Stock will be entitled to share ratably in the net assets legally available for distribution to stockholders after the payment of all of GolfSuites debts and other liabilities and the satisfaction of any liquidation preference granted to holders of Class A Preferred Stock; however if the amount that the holders of Class A Preferred Stock would receive based on the pro rata percentage of the proceeds calculated based on the number of shares owned by each investor on an “as converted to Common Stock” basis is greater than the then applicable liquidation preference available to Class A Preferred Stock, the holders of Class A Preferred Stock, Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock will receive that amount.
Other Rights.
Holders of GolfSuites Class A and Class B Common Stock have no preemptive, subscription or other rights, and there is no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to GolfSuites Class A or Class B Common Stock.
Preferred Stock
Voting Rights
Each holder of GolfSuites Preferred Stock is entitled to one vote for each share on all matters submitted to a vote of the shareholders. Holders of Preferred Stock at all times shall vote together with holders of the Common Stock as a single class on all matters (including the election of directors) submitted to vote or for the consent of the stockholders of GolfSuites.
Dividends
Each share of Preferred Stock is entitled to cumulative dividends which shall accrue, whether or not declared by the Board and whether or not there are funds legally available for the payment of dividends, on a daily basis in arrears at the rate of 8% per annum on the sum of the invested amount sum plus all unpaid accrued and accumulated dividends thereon. The company intends to pay the dividends to the holders of Preferred Stock.
In the event the company declares a dividend distribution to the Common Stockholders, all Preferred Stockholders will receive their pro rata share.
Liquidation preference
In the event of a liquidation, investors will be entitled to receive the greater of their total investment amount in the shares of Preferred Stock and any accrued and unpaid dividends or their pro rata percentage of the proceeds calculated based on the number of shares owned by each investor on an “as converted to Common Stock” basis.
Conversion
The Preferred Stock is convertible into the Class A Common Stock of the company as provided by Section 5 of the Certificate of Designations. Each share of Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, at any time after the date of issuance of such share into that number of fully paid, nonassessable shares of Class A Common Stock determined by dividing the Conversion Price (defined therein), as adjusted for any accrued and unpaid dividends, by the original purchase price. The Conversion Price is the original purchase price, adjusted from time to time as described below under “Anti-Dilution Rights”.
Holders of the Preferred Stock may convert their shares of Preferred Stock into Common Stock in their sole discretion. In the event of a Qualified Public Offering, as defined in the Certificate of Designations conversion of the Preferred Stock is mandatory.
Anti-Dilution Rights
Holders of Preferred Stock have the benefit of anti-dilution protective provisions that will be applied to adjust the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the shares of the Preferred Stock. If equity securities are subsequently issued by the company at a price per share less than the conversion price of the Preferred Stock then in effect, the conversion price of the Preferred Stock will be adjusted using a broad-based, weighted-average adjustment formula as set out in the Certificate of Designations.
These terms generally provide that if the company issues certain additional shares of Common Stock (as detailed in the Certificate of Designations) without consideration or for a consideration per share less than the Conversion Price, in effect on the date of and immediately prior to such issue, then, the Conversion Price will be reduced. The new Conversion Price will be the amount equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the (i) the sum of (A) the number of shares of Common Stock deemed outstanding prior to such issuance (as determined on an as-converted basis) times the Conversion Price then in effect with (B) the consideration, if any, from that issuances by (ii) the sum of (A) the number of shares of Common Stock deemed outstanding prior to such issuance (a determined on an as-converted basis) plus the number of such additional shares of Common Stock so issued.
Currently, the Conversion Price is $13.85 per share. Should the company sell all 6,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock at $10 per share, the new Conversion Price would be $10.54 per share, which would result in a Preferred Stock holder receiving 31% more Class A Common Stock should the shareholder convert their Preferred Stock to Class A Common Stock.
Other Rights
Holders of GolfSuites Preferred Stock have no preemptive, subscription or other rights, and there is no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to its’ Preferred Stock.
All Classes of Stock
Forum Selection Provisions
Article VII of the Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, contains exclusive forum provisions. With a few exceptions, the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware will be the sole and exclusive forum for any holder of GolfSuites Class A and Class B Common Stock (including a beneficial owner) to bring (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on the company’s behalf, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee, (iii) any action asserting a claim against the company, its directors, officers or employees arising pursuant to any provision of the Delaware General Corporation Law or the Corporation’s certificate of amendment to the certificate of incorporation, the certificate of incorporation or bylaws or (iv) any action asserting a claim against the company, its directors, officers or employees governed by the internal affairs doctrine. These sections shall not apply to actions arising under the federal securities laws.
Section 6 of the subscription agreement (which appears as an exhibit to the Offering Statement of which this Offering Circular forms a part) provides that the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware or alternatively if that is not enforceable competent federal courts in the State of Delaware are the exclusive forums for the purpose of any suit, action or other proceeding arising out of or based upon the agreement. This section does not apply to claims arising out of Exchange Act, including derivative actions.
Jury Trial Waiver
The Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware is a non-jury trial court. The parties in any lawsuits where the forum selection provisions are applicable will not be entitled to a jury.
Moreover, holders of Shares of Class A Preferred Stock as well as holders of Class A Common Stock converted from Class A Preferred Stock will be bound by the subscription agreement, which provides that subscribers waive the right to a jury trial of any claim they may have against us arising out of or relating to the subscription agreement, including any claim under federal securities laws. If the company opposed a jury trial demand based on the waiver, a court would determine whether the waiver was enforceable given the facts and circumstances of that case in accordance with applicable case law.

GolfSuites 1, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Restated Consolidated Financial Statements
As of June 30, 2023
UNAUDITED – NO ASSURANCE GIVEN
NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS
GolfSuites 1, Inc. (which may be referred to as “GS 1”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) is an early-stage company devoted to the development and operation of golf driving range and entertainment centers in the United States. The Company operates under the brand GOLFSUITES. The Company oversees the acquisition of land, zoning, entitlement, design, construction and operation of the existing and planned future facilities.
The Company owns 100% of GolfSuites Tulsa, LLC ("Tulsa") and GolfSuites Lubbock, LLC (“Lubbock”). Tulsa was formerly operated under the FlyingTee brand, but now operates under the GolfSuites brand. Lubbock was formerly operated under the 4ORE! Golf brand, but now operates under 4ORE! Golf-Powered by GolfSuites brand and is in the process of changing its name to GolfSuites Lubbock. GS 1 owns a 50% interest in GolfSuites Baton Rouge, LLC (“Baton Rouge”) along with a joint venture investor who has $1,000,000 invested in Baton Rouge. GS 1 also owns a 50% interest in GolfSuites Madison, LLC (“Madison”) with the same joint venture investor who has $712,000 invested in Madison. Tulsa, Lubbock, and Baton Rouge have been operating for the entirety of 2023, but Madison has been deemed inappropriate for development and its land is currently for sale. Subsequent to June 30, 2023, GS 1 took title to land near Auburn University in Alabama, having formed GolfSuites Auburn, LLC (“Auburn”), and that site is now under development and pre-construction.
GolfSuites has plans now to enter the indoor simulation lounge business, with its first planned facility in downtown St. Petersburg, FL. The Company has entered into a letter-of-intent for a lease on this property, which if consummated will be called “GolfSuites City Club”. This transaction represents a planned nationwide development of similar urban, upscale lounges.
The attached consolidated statement of operations includes the operations of GS 1, Tulsa, and Lubbock. Activity of Baton Rouge, from the start of operations on June 1, 2022, is also included. In that Madison and Auburn did not conduct operations, no revenues or expenses are reflected in the statement of operations.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The Company has adopted December 31 as the year end for reporting purposes.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the footnotes thereto. Actual results could differ from those estimates. It is reasonably possible that changes in estimates will occur in the near term.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company has a limited operating history. The Company's business and operations are sensitive to general business and economic conditions in the United States. A host of factors beyond the Company's control could cause fluctuations in these conditions. Adverse conditions may include: recession, economic downturn, local competition or changes in consumer taste. These adverse conditions could affect the Company's financial condition and the results of its operations. As of June 30, 2023, the Company is operating as a going concern.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash consists of currency held in the Company’s checking accounts. As of June 30, 2023, GS 1’s consolidated cash balances totaled $258,979.
Receivables and Credit Policy
Trade receivables from customers are uncollateralized customer obligations due under normal trade terms, primarily requiring payment before services are rendered. Trade receivables are stated at the amount billed to the customer. Payments of trade receivables are allocated to the specific invoices identified on the customer’s remittance advice or, if unspecified, are applied to the earliest unpaid invoice. The Company, by policy, routinely assesses the financial strength of its customer. As a result, the Company believes that its accounts receivable credit risk exposure is limited and it has not experienced significant write-downs in its accounts receivable balances. Balances due from credit card companies are included in accounts receivable. As of June 30, 2023 accounts receivable included $475,547 related to Employee Retention Credits – see Note 9 for additional details. The Employee Retention Credits were filed for in 2023.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for renewals and improvements that significantly add to the productive capacity or extend the useful life of an asset are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. When equipment is retired or sold, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the balance sheet accounts and the resultant gain or loss is reflected in income.
Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method, based on useful lives of the assets. Depreciation for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 totaled $343,372 and $363,029 respectively.
The Company reviews the carrying value of property and equipment for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. In cases where undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of assets. The factors considered by management in performing this assessment include current operating results, trends and prospects, the manner in which the property is used, and the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition, and other economic factors. As of June 30, 2023, December 31, 2022, and June 30, 2022 net property, plant and equipment consisted of the following:
| | 2023 | | | 2022 | |
| | June 30 | | | December 31 | | | June 30 | |
By Asset Category: | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Land and building improvements | | $ | 10,920,309 | | | $ | 10,735,403 | | | $ | 8,787,418 | |
Furniture, fixtures and equipment | | | 5,039,372 | | | | 4,536,829 | | | | 5,899,760 | |
Accumulated depreciation | | | (3,866,975 | ) | | | (3,408,871 | ) | | | (2,993,602 | ) |
Total | | $ | 12,092,706 | | | $ | 11,863,361 | | | $ | 11,693,576 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |

Baton Rouge | | | 2,773,307 | | | | 2,443,527 | | | | 2,072,859 | |
Madison | | | 2,110,519 | | | | 2,028,363 | | | | 1,920,179 | |
Total | | $ | 12,092,706 | | | $ | 11,863,361 | | | $ | 11,693,576 | |
Capitalized Development Costs
The Company has capitalized development fees under contractual agreements with its parent company, GolfSuites. These costs totaled $817,812 as of June 30, 2023 and relate to planning, design and construction oversight; therefore, these costs are capitalized with the cost of construction and / or initial asset acquisition, needed to prepare each facility for the start of operations. These costs are depreciated with the assets to which they relate.
Goodwill
The Company recorded Goodwill related to the acquisition of its Tulsa and Lubbock golf operating entities in 2019 and 2020 respectively. Management has reviewed the amounts recorded as Goodwill in accordance with ASC 350-20-35-3C and has determined that the fair values of Tulsa and Lubbock are greater than carrying values, including Goodwill. Therefore, no impairment losses were recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2023 or 2022. Following is a summary of the Goodwill values for Tulsa and Lubbock.
Tulsa | | | $ | 859,760 | |
Lubbock | | | | 889,495 | |
Total | | | $ | 1,749,255 | |
Income Taxes
Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related primarily to differences between the basis of receivables, inventory, property and equipment, intangible assets, and accrued expenses for financial and income tax reporting. The deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
The Company is taxed as a C Corporation for federal and state income tax purposes. As the Company has recently been formed, no material tax provision exists as of the balance sheet date.
The Company evaluates its tax positions that have been taken or are expected to be taken on income tax returns to determine if an accrual is necessary for uncertain tax positions. As of June 30, 2023 and 2022 the Company had no uncertain tax positions requiring accruals.
The Company is current with its foreign, US federal and state income tax filing obligations and is not currently under examination from any taxing authority.
Minority Interest
GS 1 and an individual investor are each 50% owners of Baton Rouge and Madison (see Note 1). GS 1 has both managerial and financial control of the entities. Because of this control, Baton Rouge and Madison are included in the consolidated financial statements of GS 1. The managerial control is defined in the operating agreements, which provide for GS 1 to be the sole manager of each entity. The financial interest is the amount of funds invested plus or minus the income or loss allocated to GS 1 and the individual investor. The table below shows these financial interests as of June 30, 2023, December 31, 2022, and June 30, 2022.
| | June 30, 2023 | | | December 31, 2022 | | | June 30, 2022 | |
| | Investment | | | % | | | Investment | | | % | | | Investment | | | % | |
GS 1 | | $ | 723,334 | | | | 66.6 | % | | $ | 2,608,085 | | | | 78.9 | % | | $ | 1,470,190 | | | | 56.6 | % |
Individual Investor | | | 363,151 | | | | 33.4 | % | | | 698,969 | | | | 21.1 | % | | | 1,126,714 | | | | 43.4 | % |
Total | | $ | 1,086,485 | | | | 100.0 | % | | $ | 3,307,054 | | | | 100.0 | % | | $ | 2,596,904 | | | | 100.0 | % |
Revenue Recognition
In 2019, the Company adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as of inception. Under ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services.
To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that an entity determines are within the scope of ASC 606, the Company performs the following steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, the Company assesses the goods or services promised within each contract and determines those that are performance obligations and assesses whether each promised good or service is distinct. The Company then recognizes as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied.
Cost of Revenues
The cost of items sold, including food, beverages and retail items are included in the cost of revenues.
Advertising Expenses
The Company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred.
Organizational Costs
In accordance with GAAP, organizational costs, including accounting fees, legal fees, and costs of incorporation, are expensed as incurred.
Development & Management Fees
Pursuant to a Management Services Agreement (“MSA”) that exists between GolfSuites and GS 1, fees for development and management of assets are due and paid from GS 1 to GolfSuites. GS 1 pays 3% of the total cost of new assets acquired or developed as development fees on its facilities to GolfSuites, and it pays 4% of gross operating revenue as management fees to GolfSuites. Management fees are reflected on the GS 1 Statement of Operations – Other income (expense).
Earnings per Share
Earnings per share amounts are calculated based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding in each year. The basic loss per share is based only on the weighted-average of common shares outstanding. The diluted loss per share is based on the weighted-average of common shares outstanding plus Class A preferred shares, which are convertible to one share of common stock. In accordance with ASC 260-10-45-11, the income or loss used in the earnings per share calculation is the net income (loss), further reduced by the amount of preferred share dividends, to arrive at the net income (loss) applicable to common shares.
Common and Preferred Share Sales and Affiliated Costs
GS 1 collected $78,500 in common share sales in the six months ended June 30, 2023. Preferred share sales totaled $1,271,067 and $1,468,084 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company paid $428,292 and $466,705 related to those periods, in costs including direct compensation, platform facilitating, marketing, share issuance / administration, and advertising for the sale of such shares. The cost ratio for each of those periods is 31.7% and 31.8%, respectively.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company maintains its cash with major financial institutions located in the United States of America, which it believes to be credit worthy. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insures balances up to $250,000. At times, the Company may maintain balances in excess of the federally insured limits. Management believes the risk of loss is minimal.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, that require organizations that lease assets, referred to as "lessees", to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. ASU 2016-02 will also require disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases and will include qualitative and quantitative requirements. The new standard for nonpublic entities became effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and early application is permitted. The Company implemented ASU No. 2016-02 for lease accounting for 2020.
The FASB issues ASUs to amend the authoritative literature in ASC. There have been a number of ASUs to date, including those above, that amend the original text of ASC. Management believes that those issued to date either (i) provide supplemental guidance, (ii) are technical corrections, (iii) are not applicable to us or (iv) are not expected to have a significant impact our balance sheet.
NOTE 3 – INCOME TAX PROVISION
As described above, the Company was recently formed and has incurred costs of its start-up operations, capital raising, and seeking to bring operations to positions of profitability. As such, no material tax provision yet exists.

NOTE 5 – RIGHT OF USE ASSETS & CAPITALIZED LEASE OBLIGATIONS
Tulsa, Lubbock and Baton Rouge lease land and/or buildings for each of those operations. In accordance with GAAP, the right of use assets are reflected in the attached balance sheet at the present value of future lease payments, as are the related lease liabilities, over the term of the respective leases.

NOTE 6 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Matters
The Company has one lawsuit filed against it for a total of $78,517 plus accrued interest, by a shareholder of GolfSuites. This amount is guaranteed to the shareholder by the Company’s chairman and another major shareholder of GolfSuites. The chairman and the other shareholder have issued an indemnification to the Company for full payment of this obligation. The balance is included in Advances from Shareholders of GolfSuites, Inc., reflected on the balance sheet.
Tulsa is in dispute with its facility owner as to lease obligations due. While the Company acknowledges that sums are due the facility owner, no final amount has been agreed to by the parties. Included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities is the Company’s estimate of the amount owed to the facilities owner. The Company continues to make the required current monthly payments under the lease. No litigation has been filed by the facility owner and the Company continues its discourse with the owner in efforts to come to a final settlement agreement.
NOTE 7 – EQUITY
The Company has authorized 132,000,000 shares of Class A common stock and 18,000,000 of Class B common stock, each with a par value of $0.00001 per share. As of June 30, 2023 there were 21,700 shares of Class A common stock issued and outstanding; all Class B common stock is issued, outstanding, and held by GolfSuites, the Company’s parent company. In 2022 and the six months ended June 30, 2023, GolfSuites contributed $2,696,442 and $27,441 to GS 1 that is shown in the balance sheet as Additional Paid-in Capital. In addition, the Company has authorized 10,000,000 shares of Class A preferred stock and 40,000,000 of other preferred stock. As of June 30, 2023, 960,462 shares of Class A preferred stock have been issued, are outstanding, and no other preferred stock is issued or outstanding. Class A preferred stock is convertible into Class A common stock. See the Consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit) for details of activity for each equity component.
Class A common stockholders are entitled to a single vote per share and have equal dividend and liquidation preferences as Class B common stockholders. Class B common stockholders have five votes per share and shares of Class B common stock can be converted into shares of Class A common stock at the option of the holder. Class A preferred stockholders are entitled to a single vote per share and to an 8 percent annual dividend, which will accrue if funds are not legally available to distribute, in addition to a liquidation preference. Shares of Class A preferred stock can be converted into shares of Class A common stock at the option of the holder and shares will be automatically converted in the event of a qualified public offering, as defined in the certificate of incorporation, as amended.
NOTE 8 – RELATED PARY TRANSACTIONS
The Company has received working capital from its parent entity to cover expenses and costs while preparing for the securities offering. The total of these previously advanced funds was converted to Additional Paid-in Capital in 2022 and the six months ended June 30, 2023 (see Note 7 – Equity, above). In addition, the Company received advances from shareholders of the parent entity. The balance of these parent entity shareholder advances totaled $250,517, $260,517 and $783,317 respectively, as of June 30, 2023, December 31, 2022, and June 30, 2022.

NOTE 10 – GOING CONCERN
These financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis.
However, if the Company is unable to raise new capital through a proposed Reg A filing, which allows for a 3-year capital raising window, there will be significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Conditions leading to this disclosure include: the Company is in the start-up phase, as it seeks to add new locations and expand existing operations, and the occurrence of the Covid 19 epidemic during the Company’s start-up phase, and the resulting negative impact on all types of restaurant and entertainment businesses.
Management expects to raise a minimum of $15,000,000 through the new Reg A filing and believes those funds will provide for the addition of new locations, additional working capital, and for repayment of various related party advances that have been used to fund operations to date.
NOTE 11 – RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Background
The GS 1 consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2023 and 2022, and for the six months then ended, have been restated for misstatements, errors, and omissions in the originally issued statements. The following detail summarizes the misstatements, errors, and omissions and the impact on the previously issued financial statements. Following the descriptions of the misstatements, several tables are presented that show a comparison of the restated and originally issued financial statements.
Nature of Cost of Revenues
The originally issued statements did not include a description of the nature of the cost of revenues. A note has been added to footnote 2 which describes the items included in the cost of revenues. This change has no impact on the previously reported consolidated net income or loss, nor on any line item in the consolidated balance sheet.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization was included in the other income (expense) section of the consolidated statement of operations, as originally issued. Those expenses have now been reclassified and properly included in operating expenses. This change has no impact on the previously reported consolidated net income or loss, nor on any line item in the consolidated balance sheet.
Management Fees
Management fees were eliminated in error from the financial statements as originally issued. This error is corrected in the restated financial statements, and management fees are reflected as expenses. Management fees totaled $198,143 and $180,117 for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Capitalized Development Fees
These capitalized costs were originally reported as a separate line item on the balance sheet and were not depreciated. Footnote 2 includes an updated description of these capitalized fees including the reclassification of the costs to the property, plant and equipment line items to which they relate, and the costs are now being depreciated over the lives of the fixed assets to which they relate. Following is a summary of the costs and depreciation related to capitalized development fees.
| | As of and for the Six Months Ended June 30, | |
| | 2023 | | | 2022 | |
Costs reclassified from capitalized development fees to property, plant and equipment | | $ | 817,812 | | | $ | 764,549 | |
| | | | | | | | |
Depreciation expense related to capitalized development fees | | | 15,629 | | | | 14,023 | |
| | | | | | | | |
Year-end net book value of capitalized development fees | | | 743,516 | | | | 723,120 | |
Related Party Advances Converted to Additional Paid-In Capital
The cash flows from financing activities section of the consolidated statement of cash flows originally reported cash inflows from capital contributed, offset by outflows in the line for related party advances. These statements remove that activity related to the $27,441 converted to additional paid-in capital in 2023. A non-cash disclosure has now been added to the consolidated statement of cash flows. This change has no impact on the previously reported consolidated net income or loss, nor on any line item in the consolidated balance sheet.
Minority Interest in Consolidated Subsidiaries
GS 1 has financial and managerial control of two operating subsidiaries. An investor in each of those subsidiaries in an individual. A note has now been included in footnote 2 which details management by GS 1 and its investment in the subsidiaries compared to the investor. Previously, the minority interest in consolidated subsidiaries was included in the consolidated balance sheet as a line item between liabilities and equity. That item has now been reclassified and shown in the equity section of the consolidated balance sheet and is also reported on the Statement of Stockholders’ Equity.
Management Fees
The management fees discussed in footnote 2 were originally classified as other income (expense) in the consolidated statement of operations. Those expenses have been reclassified, and are now included in operating expenses. This change has no impact on the previously reported consolidated net income or loss.
Dividends on Preferred Stock
The dividends paid to preferred stockholders were not included in the earnings per share calculations in the previously issued financial statements. The earnings per share note, in footnote 2, has been updated to reflect that the dividends on preferred stock are now included in the calculation of earnings per share. This change has no impact on the previously reported consolidated net income or loss, nor on any line item in the consolidated balance sheet.
Operating Cash Flows in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows
The operating cash flow section originally began with the net loss, and subsequently, the minority interest share of subsidiary loss was subtracted as one of the reconciling items to arrive at net cash provided by operating activities. In accordance with ASC 230, the operating cash flow section now begins with net income (loss) before minority interest, and the minority interest share of subsidiary loss has been removed from the reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities. This change has no impact on the net cash provided by operating activities nor the overall net cash flow. The minority interest share of subsidiary loss has been added as a noncash activities’ disclosure at the bottom of the consolidated statement of cash flows.
Notes Payable and Related Party Footnotes
The notes to the originally issued statements did not include descriptions of the rates and terms of the various note and related party payables. Note 4 and Note 8, above, have been updated to provide the details on the various arrangements. This change has no impact on the previously reported consolidated net income or loss, nor on any line item in the consolidated balance sheet.
Going Concern Footnote
The original going concern footnote did not include all required disclosures. Footnote 10, above, has been updated to provide the disclosures required by ASC 205-40-50-13 and 14. This change has no impact on the previously reported consolidated net income or loss, nor on any line item in the consolidated balance sheet.
Consolidated Financial Statements After Restatement Compared to Originally Issued Statements
The following consolidated financial statements show the various line item balances after the restatements detailed above, compared to the balances originally reported. Please note that the line item descriptions have been summarized – see the various restated consolidated financial statements for the complete descriptions.

Restated Consolidated Financial Statements
As of, and for the Years Ended December 31, 2022 and 2021


INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
| To: | Board of Directors, Golfsuites 1, Inc. |
| Re: | 2022 Restated Consolidated Financial Statement audit |
We have audited the accompanying restated consolidated financial statements of Golfsuites 1, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”), which comprise the restated balance sheet as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the related restated statements of loss and comprehensive loss, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the calendar year periods ended 2022 and 2021, and the related notes to such restated consolidated financial statements.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit of the Company’s financial statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations, shareholder equity and its cash flows for the calendar years ended 2022 and 2021 and are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
As discussed in Note 11 to the restated consolidated financial statements the consolidated financial statements as of, and for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 have been restated to correct misstatements. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.
Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in the notes to the financial statements, the Company has stated that substantial doubt exists about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's evaluation of the events and conditions and management's plans regarding these matters are also described in the Notes to the financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

GolfSuites 1, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Restated Consolidated Financial Statements
As of December 31, 2022
NOTE 1 - NATURE OF OPERATIONS
GolfSuites 1, Inc. (which may be referred to as “GS 1”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) is an early-stage company devoted to the development and operation of golf driving range and entertainment centers in the United States. The Company operates under the brand GOLFSUITES. The Company oversees the acquisition of land, zoning, entitlement, design, construction and operation of the existing and planned future facilities.
The Company owns 100% of GolfSuites Tulsa, LLC ("Tulsa") and GolfSuites Lubbock, LLC (“Lubbock”). Tulsa was formerly operated under the FlyingTee brand, but now operates under the GolfSuites brand. Lubbock was formerly operated under the 4ORE! Golf brand, but now operates under 4ORE! Golf-Powered by GolfSuites brand, and will change to the GolfSuites brand in 2023.
On March 16, 2021 GS 1 formed GolfSuites Baton Rouge, LLC (“Baton Rouge”), a Louisiana limited liability company for the purpose of leasing an approximate 18-acre existing driving range that had been closed for operations. On June 1, 2022 Baton Rouge began operations of the 40-bay facility offering the same services as Tulsa and Lubbock. Through December 31, 2022, the total site development cost totals approximately $2,560,000. Funding for this site has been provided by GS 1’s Reg A share sales, private equity investment, advances from GolfSuites, Inc. (“GolfSuites”) (parent company), positive operating cash flows from existing operations, and a land lease. Minority interest in the loss of Baton Rouge has been reflected in the attached statements to show the allocation of loss to a private equity investor. As of December 31, 2022, the private equity investor has invested $1,000,000.
On January 15, 2022 GS 1 formed GolfSuites Madison, LLC (“Madison”) a Mississippi limited liability company for the purpose of purchasing approximately 9 acres of land which was to be developed into a 40-bay golf driving range and entertainment facility. The land was purchased on May 5, 2022. Through December 31, 2022, the total site development cost for Madison totals approximately $2,028,000. Funding for this site has been provided by GS 1’s Reg A share sales, private equity investment, advances from GolfSuites, Inc., positive operating cash flows from existing operations, and $1,125,000 of mortgage financing. Minority interest in the loss of Madison has been reflected in the attached statements to show the allocation of loss to a private equity investor. As of December 31, 2022, the private equity investor has invested $712,000. As of December 31, 2022, development of the Madison site has been discontinued, and GS 1 is seeking a buyer for the site.
The attached consolidated statement of operations includes the operations of GS 1, Tulsa, and Lubbock for 2022 and 2021. Activity of Baton Rouge, from the start of operations on June 1, 2022, is also included. In that Madison did not conduct operations, no revenues or expenses are reflected in the statement of operations.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The Company has adopted December 31 as the year end for reporting purposes.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the footnotes thereto. Actual results could differ from those estimates. It is reasonably possible that changes in estimates will occur in the near term.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Company has a limited operating history. The Company's business and operations are sensitive to general business and economic conditions in the United States. A host of factors beyond the Company's control could cause fluctuations in these conditions. Adverse conditions may include: recession, economic downturn, local competition or changes in consumer taste. These adverse conditions could affect the Company's financial condition and the results of its operations. As of December 31, 2022, the Company is operating as a going concern.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash consists of currency held in the Company’s checking accounts. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, GS 1’s consolidated cash balances totaled $227,442 and $674,144, respectively.
Receivables and Credit Policy
Trade receivables from customers are uncollateralized customer obligations due under normal trade terms, primarily requiring payment before services are rendered. Trade receivables are stated at the amount billed to the customer. Payments of trade receivables are allocated to the specific invoices identified on the customer’s remittance advice or, if unspecified, are applied to the earliest unpaid invoice. The Company, by policy, routinely assesses the financial strength of its customer. As a result, the Company believes that its accounts receivable credit risk exposure is limited and it has not experienced significant write-downs in its accounts receivable balances. Balances due from credit card companies are included in accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2021 accounts receivable included $331,756 related to Employee Retention Credits – see Note 9 for additional details. The Employee Retention Credits were collected in the second quarter of 2022.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Expenditures for renewals and improvements that significantly add to the productive capacity or extend the useful life of an asset are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. When equipment is retired or sold, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the balance sheet accounts and the resultant gain or loss is reflected in income.
Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method, based on useful lives of the assets. Depreciation for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021 totaled $778,298 and $713,571, respectively.
The Company reviews the carrying value of property and equipment for impairment whenever events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable from the estimated future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. In cases where undiscounted expected future cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment loss is recognized equal to an amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of assets. The factors considered by management in performing this assessment include current operating results, trends and prospects, the manner in which the property is used, and the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition, and other economic factors. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021 net property, plant and equipment consisted of the following:
| | 2022 | | | 2021 | |
By Asset Category: | | | | | | | | |
Land and building improvements | | $ | 10,735,403 | | | $ | 6,867,239 | |
Furniture, fixtures and equipment | | | 4,536,829 | | | | 3,742,864 | |
Construction in progress | | | - | | | | 650,241 | |
Accumulated depreciation | | | (3,408,871 | ) | | | (2,630,573 | ) |
Total | | $ | 11,863,361 | | | $ | 8,629,771 | |
| | | | | | | | |
Net Book Value By Entity: | | | | | | | | |
Tulsa | | $ | 547,362 | | | $ | 624,764 | |
Lubbock | | | 6,844,109 | | | | 7,354,766 | |
Baton Rouge | | | 2,443,527 | | | | 650,241 | |
Madison | | | 2,028,363 | | | | - | |
Total | | $ | 11,863,361 | | | $ | 8,629,771 | |
Capitalized Development Costs
The Company has capitalized development fees under contractual agreements with its parent company, GolfSuites. These costs totaled $784,969 as of December 31, 2022 and relate to planning, design and construction oversight; therefore, these costs are capitalized with the cost of construction and / or initial asset acquisition, needed to prepare each facility for the start of operations. These costs are depreciated with the assets to which they relate.
Goodwill
The Company recorded Goodwill related to the acquisition of its Tulsa and Lubbock golf operating entities in 2019 and 2020 respectively. Management has reviewed the amounts recorded as Goodwill in accordance with ASC 350-20-35-3C and has determined that the fair values of Tulsa and Lubbock are greater than carrying values, including Goodwill. Therefore, no impairment losses were recorded for the years ended December 31, 2022 or 2021. Following is a summary of the Goodwill values for Tulsa and Lubbock.
Tulsa | | $ | 859,760 | |
Lubbock | | | 889,495 | |
Total | | $ | 1,749,255 | |
Income Taxes
Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reporting in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related primarily to differences between the basis of receivables, inventory, property and equipment, intangible assets, and accrued expenses for financial and income tax reporting. The deferred tax assets and liabilities represent the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will either be taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
The Company is taxed as a C Corporation for federal and state income tax purposes. As the Company has recently been formed, no material tax provision exists as of the balance sheet date.
The Company evaluates its tax positions that have been taken or are expected to be taken on income tax returns to determine if an accrual is necessary for uncertain tax positions. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021 the Company had no uncertain tax positions requiring accruals.
The Company is current with its foreign, US federal and state income tax filing obligations and is not currently under examination from any taxing authority.
Minority Interest
GS 1 and an individual investor are each 50% owners of Baton Rouge and Madison (see Note 1). GS 1 has both managerial and financial control of the entities. Because of this control, Baton Rouge and Madison are included in the consolidated financial statements of GS 1. The managerial control is defined in the operating agreements, which provide for GS 1 to be the sole manager of each entity. The financial interest is the amount of funds invested plus or minus the income or loss allocated to GS 1 and the individual investor. The table below shows these financial interests as of December 31, 2022 and 2021.
| | December 31, 2022 | | | December 31, 2021 | |
| | Investment | | | % | | | Investment | | | % | |
GS 1 | | $ | 2,608,085 | | | | 78.9 | % | | $ | 442,500 | | | | 61.0 | % |
Individual Investor | | | 698,969 | | | | 21.1 | % | | | 283,374 | | | | 39.0 | % |
Total | | $ | 3,307,054 | | | | 100.0 | % | | $ | 725,874 | | | | 100.0 | % |
Revenue Recognition
In 2019, the Company adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as of inception. Under ASC 606, revenue is recognized when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services, in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services.
To determine revenue recognition for arrangements that an entity determines are within the scope of ASC 606, the Company performs the following steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. At contract inception, once the contract is determined to be within the scope of ASC 606, the Company assesses the goods or services promised within each contract and determines those that are performance obligations and assesses whether each promised good or service is distinct. The Company then recognizes as revenue the amount of the transaction price that is allocated to the respective performance obligation when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied.
Cost of Revenues
The cost of items sold, including food, beverages and retail items are included in the cost of revenues.
Advertising Expenses
The Company expenses advertising costs as they are incurred.
Organizational Costs
In accordance with GAAP, organizational costs, including accounting fees, legal fees, and costs of incorporation, are expensed as incurred.
Development & Management Fees
Pursuant to a Management Services Agreement (“MSA”) that exists between GolfSuites and GS 1, fees for development and management of assets are due and paid from GS 1 to GolfSuites. GS 1 pays 3% of the total cost of new assets acquired or developed as development fees on its facilities to GolfSuites, and it pays 4% of gross operating revenue as management fees to GolfSuites. Management fees are reflected on the GS 1 Statement of Operations – Other income (expense).
Earnings per Share
Earnings per share amounts are calculated based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding in each year. The basic loss per share is based only on the weighted-average of common shares outstanding. The diluted loss per share is based on the weighted-average of common shares outstanding plus Class A preferred shares, which are convertible to one share of common stock. In accordance with ASC 260-10-45-11, the income or loss used in the earnings per share calculation is the net income (loss), further reduced by the amount of preferred share dividends, to arrive at the net income (loss) applicable to common shares.
Common and Preferred Share Sales and Affiliated Costs
GS 1 collected preferred share sales totaling $3,518,042 and $2,126,084 for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company paid $983,293 and $985,742 related to those periods, in costs including direct compensation, platform facilitating, marketing, share issuance / administration, and advertising for the sale of such shares. The cost ratio for each of those periods is 27.9% and 46.4%, respectively. Costs of approximately $150,000 incurred in 2021, related to prior year sales; after adjusting for these costs, the 2021 adjusted cost ratio approximates 39.3%.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company maintains its cash with major financial institutions located in the United States of America, which it believes to be credit worthy. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insures balances up to $250,000. At times, the Company may maintain balances in excess of the federally insured limits. Management believes the risk of loss is minimal.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, that require organizations that lease assets, referred to as "lessees", to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. ASU 2016-02 will also require disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases and will include qualitative and quantitative requirements. The new standard for nonpublic entities became effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and early application is permitted. The Company implemented ASU No. 2016-02 for lease accounting for 2020.
The FASB issues ASUs to amend the authoritative literature in ASC. There have been a number of ASUs to date, including those above, that amend the original text of ASC. Management believes that those issued to date either (i) provide supplemental guidance, (ii) are technical corrections, (iii) are not applicable to us or (iv) are not expected to have a significant impact our balance sheet.

NOTE 5 – RIGHT OF USE ASSETS & CAPITALIZED LEASE OBLIGATIONS
Tulsa, Lubbock and Baton Rouge lease land and/or buildings for each of those operations. In accordance with GAAP, the right of use assets are reflected in the attached balance sheet at the present value of future lease payments, as are the related lease liabilities, over the term of the respective leases.
Lubbock assumed the lease of land, that began prior to acquisition, on August 19, 2020; the present value of future lease payments was recorded at the acquisition date. Baton Rouge entered into a lease for land beginning March 1, 2021. The lease is for five years and Baton Rouge has the option to extend the lease for two additional five year terms. The present value of future lease payments, based on a 15 year lease, was recorded as of the lease inception.
The discount rate used in each of the present value calculations above is 4.000%, the incremental borrowing rate for Tulsa, Lubbock and Baton Rouge. The right of use assets are amortized straight-line over the life of each lease.

NOTE 10 – GOING CONCERN
These financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis.
However, if the Company is unable to raise new capital through a proposed Reg A filing, which allows for a 3-year capital raising window, there will be significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Conditions leading to this disclosure include: the Company is in the start-up phase, as it seeks to add new locations and expand existing operations, and the occurrence of the Covid 19 epidemic during the Company’s start-up phase, and the resulting negative impact on all types of restaurant and entertainment businesses.
Management expects to raise a minimum of $15,000,000 through the new Reg A filing and believes those funds will provide for the addition of new locations, additional working capital, and for repayment of various related party advances that have been used to fund operations to date.
NOTE 11 – RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Background
The GS 1 consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and for the years then ended, have been restated for misstatements, errors, and omissions in the originally issued statements. The following detail summarizes the misstatements, errors, and omissions and the impact on the previously issued financial statements. Following the descriptions of the misstatements, several tables are presented that show a comparison of the restated and originally issued financial statements.
Nature of Cost of Revenues
The originally issued statements did not include a description of the nature of the cost of revenues. A note has been added to footnote 2 which describes the items included in the cost of revenues. This change has no impact on the previously reported consolidated net income or loss, nor on any line item in the consolidated balance sheet.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization was included in the other income (expense) section of the consolidated statement of operations, as originally issued. Those expenses have now been reclassified and properly included in operating expenses. This change has no impact on the previously reported consolidated net income or loss, nor on any line item in the consolidated balance sheet.
Capitalized Development Fees
These capitalized costs were originally reported as a separate line item on the balance sheet and were not depreciated. Footnote 2 includes an updated description of these capitalized fees including the reclassification of the costs to the property, plant and equipment line items to which they relate, and the costs are now being depreciated over the lives of the fixed assets to which they relate. Following is a summary of the costs and depreciation related to capitalized development fees.
| | As of and for the Year Ended December 31, | |
| | 2022 | | | 2021 | |
Costs reclassified from capitalized development fees to property, plant and equipment | | $ | 784,969 | | | $ | 666,214 | |
| | | | | | | | |
Depreciation expense related to capitalized development fees | | | 27,406 | | | | 31,261 | |
| | | | | | | | |
Year-end net book value of capitalized development fees | | | 726,302 | | | | 638,808 | |
Related Party Advances Converted to Additional Paid-In Capital
The cash flows from financing activities section of the consolidated statement of cash flows originally reported cash inflows from capital contributed, offset by outflows in the line for related party advances. These statements remove that activity related to the $2,696,442 converted to additional paid-in capital in 2022. A non-cash disclosure has now been added to the consolidated statement of cash flows. This change has no impact on the previously reported consolidated net income or loss, nor on any line item in the consolidated balance sheet.
Minority Interest in Consolidated Subsidiaries
GS 1 has financial and managerial control of two operating subsidiaries. An investor in each of those subsidiaries in an individual. A note has now been included in footnote 2 which details management by GS 1 and its investment in the subsidiaries compared to the investor. Previously, the minority interest in consolidated subsidiaries was included in the consolidated balance sheet as a line item between liabilities and equity. That item has now been reclassified and shown in the equity section of the consolidated balance sheet and is also reported on the Statement of Stockholders’ Equity.
Management Fees
The management fees discussed in footnote 2 were originally classified as other income (expense) in the consolidated statement of operations. Those expenses have been reclassified, and are now included in operating expenses. This change has no impact on the previously reported consolidated net income or loss.
Dividends on Preferred Stock
The dividends paid to preferred stockholders were not included in the earnings per share calculations in the previously issued financial statements. The earnings per share note, in footnote 2, has been updated to reflect that the dividends on preferred stock are now included in the calculation of earnings per share. This change has no impact on the previously reported consolidated net income or loss, nor on any line item in the consolidated balance sheet.
Operating Cash Flows in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows
The operating cash flow section originally began with the net loss, and subsequently, the minority interest share of subsidiary loss was subtracted as one of the reconciling items to arrive at net cash provided by operating activities. In accordance with ASC 230, the operating cash flow section now begins with net loss before minority interest, and the minority interest share of subsidiary loss has been removed from the reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities. This change has no impact on the net cash provided by operating activities nor the overall net cash flow. The minority interest share of subsidiary loss has been added as a noncash activities’ disclosure at the bottom of the consolidated statement of cash flows.
Notes Payable and Related Party Footnotes
The notes to the originally issued statements did not include descriptions of the rates and terms of the various note and related party payables. Note 4 and Note 8, above, have been updated to provide the details on the various arrangements. This change has no impact on the previously reported consolidated net income or loss, nor on any line item in the consolidated balance sheet.
Going Concern Footnote
The original going concern footnote did not include all required disclosures. Footnote 10, above, has been updated to provide the disclosures required by ASC 205-40-50-13 and 14. This change has no impact on the previously reported consolidated net income or loss, nor on any line item in the consolidated balance sheet.

The following consolidated financial statements show the various line item balances after the restatements detailed above, compared to the balances originally reported. Please note that the line item descriptions have been summarized – see the various restated consolidated financial statements for the complete descriptions.
