PRINCIPAL BUSINESS ACTIVITY, MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | 1. PRINCIPAL BUSINESS ACTIVITY, MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Interim Financial Statements The condensed consolidated financial statements include the following: 1) Balance sheets as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015; 2) Statements of Operations for the three months ended September 30, 2016; 3) Statement of Operations from the Date of Acquisition (June 23, 2016) through September 30, 2016 (“Acquisition Period”) ; 4) Statement of Operations from the period Date of Inception (September 22, 2015) through September 2015 (“Inception Period”) are unaudited. However, in the opinion of management of the Company, these condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all material adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position and results of operations for such interim periods. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for a full year. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X for smaller reporting companies. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015. Liquidity and Going Concern Going Concern - The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company generated net income for the Acquisition Period of approximately $26,000 and had negative working capital and stockholders’ deficiency of approximately $3,866,000 at September 30, 2016. Since, inception the Company’s growth has been funded through the issuance of convertible debt, borrowings under lines of credit and internal operations These factors, among others, may indicate that the Company will be unable to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations, to obtain additional financing, renegotiate the terms of existing financing obligations and ultimately to attain successful operations. The ability to successfully achieve those items is uncertain. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the uncertainty. Basis of Consolidation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NaturalNano, Inc. (“NaturalNano” or the “Company”), a Nevada corporation, and its wholly owned subsidiaries Omni Shrimp, Inc., a Florida corporation. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Accounting for Reverse Capitalization The Company follows the guidelines set forth in Topic 12: Reverse Acquisitions and Reverse Capitalizations of the SEC Financial Reporting Material Definitive Agreement On July 5, 2016, the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Division of Corporation Finance advised the Company that in light of the information set forth in the Form 8-K filed on June 29, 2016, the Staff was of the opinion that the Company was a “shell company” as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933 and Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act. The Company replied with a letter to the Staff contesting the factual basis of such determination, and the Staff replied with a subsequent letter affirming its prior determination. The Company intends to have further communications with the Staff regarding their determination as to the Company’s shell company status. The financial statements enclosed herewith were prepared on the assumption that the Company was not a shell company on June 23, 2016 and is not a shell company at the present time. Pursuant to the SEC Manual, the Company filed a form 8-K/A on September 1, 2016 and November 14, 2016, and in Item 9.01 of those filings, the Company reported the required financial statements, including audited financial statements of Omni and pro forma financial information. Material Definitive Agreement On June 23, 2016 (the “Effective Date”), the Company announced that it entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the "Exchange Agreement") with all of the shareholders of Omni Shrimp, Inc., a Florida corporation ("Omni"), pursuant to which the shareholders exchanged with the Company all of the outstanding shares of stock of Omni and Omni thereupon became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. In consideration for the exchange of those Omni shares, the Company issued 28,500 shares of a newly created Series E Preferred Stock of the Company (the "Series E Preferred Stock"). As a result of their ownership of the Series E Preferred Stock, the Omni shareholders acquired the right to vote 95% of the voting control of the Company. The Series E Preferred Stock is also convertible into common stock which, in the aggregate, would represent up to 95% of the outstanding common stock after the conversion. In addition, on the Effective Date, the holders of all of the Company's outstanding Series B and Series D Preferred Stock, surrendered those shares to the Company. Additionally, on the Effective Date the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with James Wemett, the former President and CEO, pursuant to which Mr. Wemett acquired all right, title and interest to the existing business activities of the Company prior to that date; specifically, those activities were (i) developing and commercializing material additives based on a technology utilizing halloysite nanotubes and (ii) reselling Ebola personal protective equipment and ancillary supplies, and assumed the related liabilities. In connection with that transaction, Mr. Wemett waived all accumulated compensation due to him from the Company. In connection with the Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company and Mr. Wemett exchanged releases, and the Company issued to Mr. Wemett a six year divisible Warrant with cashless exercise to purchase up to 2,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock at a purchase price of $0.05 per share. Surrender and Amendment Agreement (“Surrender and Amendment”) Concurrent with the Material Definitive Agreement on the Effective Date, owners of the Senior Secured Convertible Notes and Promissory Notes agreed to surrender the following back to the Company: • $150,436 of face value debt, and • $79,411 of related accrued interest. The Company did not issue any additional consideration for these securities. In addition, the Company retired the following owned by its former Chief Executive Officer • 5,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock • 100 shares of Series D Preferred stock Concurrent with this retirement, the Company issued 2,000,000 warrants Description of the Business Omni Shrimp, Inc. (Omni) is a subsidiary of the Company and was formed on September 22, 2015 in the state of Florida. Omni is a provider of shrimp. According to National Fisheries Institute (NFI), shrimp is the most consumed seafood within the United States at over 4 pounds of shrimp consumed per person in the United States annually. Shrimps come in many varieties which are differentiated by their color. We specialize in the a very high, domestic and wild caught shrimp called Key West Pink Shrimp also referred to as “pinks”. They derive their name from their pink color which is the result of growing up in the coral sands off the west coast of Florida. Key West Pink Shrimp are also great tasting and may be enjoyed as “peel and eat” or in a wide variety of recipes. The harvesting season for “Pinks” is from November through June. Throughout the year, Omni also purchases and sells “Brown” and “White” shrimp also grown in the United States and harvested in the wild. Omni believes that it differentiates itself from its competitors not only by the quality of its product but its relationships with Shrimp boat captains and fishermen, shrimp seafood company owners and some of the top shrimp processors in the U.S. These relationships allow Omni to get its product to market as quickly as possible in order to guarantee freshness and taste. The vessels who supply our shrimp have refrigeration units and freezing capabilities on board which locks in freshness. Additionally, we use a large, approved, industry accepted processor in Louisiana which allows our haul to get out to the dining public within two to three days of catch resulting in delivery of fresh shrimp with uncompromised taste to our customers. Most consumers in the United States are not aware of the origin of their store-bought or restaurant purchased shrimp. Omni’s shrimp product is free of pesticide, chemicals and antibiotics, caught in the U.S. and wild caught, facts that we believe is highly attractive, becoming more and more sought after and beneficial in terms of our eventual marketing success. Management is strongly optimistic that it has positioned the Company to capitalize on the high growth segments of the burgeoning shrimp and seafood markets. Estimates The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate such estimates. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Fair Value of Financial Instruments Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Fair Value Measurement Topic of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). These tiers include: • Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. • Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. • Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs based on the Company’s own assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value. A financial asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet of cash, accounts receivable, inventory, prepaid assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The fair value of notes payable approximates their carrying value as the terms of this debt reflects market conditions. The Company’s derivative liability was determined utilizing Level 3 inputs. Derivative Financial Instruments The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market or foreign currency risks. The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and then is revalued at each reporting date, with changes in fair value reported in the consolidated statement of operations. For stock based derivative financial instruments, the Company estimated the total enterprise value based upon trending the firm value from December 2006 to September 30, 2016 considering company specific factors including the changes in forward estimated revenues and market factors, market multiples for comparable companies, and the Company’s market share price, all equally weighted. Once the enterprise value was determined an option pricing model was used to allocate the enterprise value to the individual derivative securities in the Company’s capital structure. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within twelve months of the balance sheet date. Reclassifications Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Income Taxes The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC 740 which requires recognition of estimated income taxes payable or refundable on income tax returns for the current year and for the estimated future tax effect attributable to temporary differences and carry-forwards. Measurement of deferred income tax items is based on enacted tax laws including tax rates, with the measurement of deferred income tax assets being reduced by available tax benefits not expected to be realized. The Company recognizes penalties and accrued interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. Income tax expense was $0 for the period of Acquisition and period of Inception. Net income/ (Loss) Per Share Loss per common share is computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted income or loss per common share gives effect to dilutive convertible preferred stock, convertible debt, options and warrants outstanding during the period. Shares to be issued upon the exercise of these instruments have not been included in the computation of diluted loss per share as their effect is anti-dilutive based on the net loss incurred. As of September 30, 2016 and 2015 there were 71,101,371 and -0- shares, respectively, underlying preferred stock, convertible debt, outstanding options and warrants that could potentially dilute future earnings. These potentially dilutive shares have been limited by certain debt and equity agreements with lenders. These agreements provide limitations on the conversion of the dilutive instruments such that the number of shares of Common Stock that may be acquired by the holder upon conversion of such instruments shall be limited to ensure that following such conversion the total number of shares of Common Stock then beneficially owned by the holder does not exceed 4.99% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock. The Company does not have sufficient authorized shares to satisfy conversion of all the potentially dilutive instruments. Shares associated with the issuance of Series E Preferred stock are reported on an as converted basis Recent Accounting Pronouncements In July 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-011 to Topic 330, Inventory. This ASU requires entities using inventory costing methods other than last-in-first-out and retail inventory method to value their inventory at the lower of cost and net realizable value. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016 and is to be applied prospectively. Early adoption of this ASU is permitted. The Company does not expect adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements. |
