Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Annual Report on Form 10-K (this “Annual Report”) contains forward-looking statements, within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that reflect our current estimates, expectations and projections about our future results, performance, prospects and opportunities. Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements about our market opportunities, our business and growth strategies, our projected revenue and expense levels, possible future consolidated results of operations, the adequacy of our available cash resources, our financing plans, our competitive position and the effects of competition and the projected growth of the industries in which we operate, as well as the following statements:

 

the expectation that operating losses will continue for the near future, and that until we are able to achieve profits, we intend to continue to seek to access the capital markets to fund the development of our products;

 

  that we seek to structure our research and development on a project basis to allow management of costs and results on a discrete short term project basis, the expectation that doing so may result in quarterly expenses that rise and fall depending on the underlying project status, and the expectation that this method of managing projects may allow us to minimize our firm fixed commitments at any given point in time;

 

  that we intend to continue to explore strategic opportunities, including potential acquisition opportunities of businesses that are complementary to ours;

 

  that we do not anticipate declaring any cash dividends on our common stock;

 

  that our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to obtain financing to fund the continued development of our products and working capital requirements;

 

  that our current cash resources, our expected access to capital under existing financing arrangements, and, if necessary, delaying and/or reducing certain research, development and related activities and costs, that we will have sufficient funds available to meet our working capital requirements for the near-term future;

 

This Annual Report also contains forward-looking statements attributed to third parties relating to their estimates regarding the size of the future market for products and systems such as our products and systems, and the assumptions underlying such estimates.  Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts and can be identified by forward-looking statements such as “may,” “might,” “should,” “could,” “will,” “intends,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “projects,” “potential,” “continue,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “expects” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are only predictions based on our current expectations and projections, or those of third parties, about future events and involve risks and uncertainties.

 

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements contained in this Annual Report are based upon reasonable assumptions, no assurance can be given that such expectations will be attained or that any deviations will not be material. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking statements, events and circumstances discussed in this Annual Report may not occur and actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated or implied in the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our actual results, level of performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in, or implied by, the forward-looking statements we make in this Annual Report are discussed under “Item 1A. Risk Factors,” “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and elsewhere in this Annual Report and include:

 

 

our ability to predict the extent of future losses or when we will become profitable;

 

  our ability to continue as a going concern;

 

  our ability to successfully consider, review, and if appropriate, implement other strategic opportunities;

 

  our expectation that we will incur losses, on a consolidated basis, for the foreseeable future;

  

  our ability to comply with current and future regulations relating to our businesses;

  

  our ability to establish and maintain proper and effective internal accounting and financial controls;

 

  our ability to pay obligations when due which may result in an event of default under our financing arrangements;

   

You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. In addition, past financial or operating performance is not necessarily a reliable indicator of future performance, and you should not use our historical performance to anticipate future results or future period trends. Except as otherwise required by federal securities laws, we disclaim any obligation or undertaking to disseminate any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statement contained in this Annual Report to reflect any change in our expectations or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based. All forward-looking statements attributable to us, or persons acting on our behalf, are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements included in this Annual Report.

PART I

 

Item 1. Business 

 

Overview

 

Bang Holdings Corp wholly owns two subsidiaries, Bang Digital Media, a cannabis focused digital media company, and Bang Vapor, an e-juice company.

 

Bang Digital Media is the hub for all ‘cannabusiness’ related advertising, content creation, technology and marketing. It consists of two divisions, the multi-platform 4TTnetwork, and a network of social media influencers that we call the Green Monkey Network.

 

The 4TTnetwork is comprised primarily of specifically targeted audiences. These are 4TwentyToday, VaporBang, and 4TT/V which cross the social media platforms of Facebook, Twitter, Massroots, Instagram, SnapChat and YouTube.

 

4TwentyToday is a digital, multi-platform channel that enables us to target advertising for Bang Holdings products and services across social media platforms. We currently have in excess of 625,000 users of our network, with a steady growth rate of around three thousand subscribers per week. By continuing to create targeted, quality content for this community on a daily basis 4TwentyToday has, for example, created one of the most actively engaged marijuana pages on Facebook. This has built high levels of trust and goodwill in the community, which will be convertible to revenues once we have reached a critical mass of users.

 

Using the same skillset, we are developing VaporBang – a digital, multi-platform community for vaping enthusiasts. At more than 88,000 strong, ours is the largest vaping community on Facebook. This enabled us to carry out beta testing of product to this targeted audience and to develop strong recognition for the Bang brand.

 

Our most successful post on Facebook in 2016 had 15.6 million views, leading to 1,832,507 “reactions,” 610,000 “shares,” and 164,000 “comments.” The post was created to build upon our social media footprint related to our business, not specifically towards our products.

 

The ‘Green Monkey Network’ is a network of social media influencers who are open to working as ambassadors in the marijuana industry. These influencers expand the Bang network by more than 12 million users.

 

Ultimately, the KPI (Key Performance Indicator) of Bang Digital Media is in the direct and expanded growth of our networks. By continuing to grow 4TwentyToday and the ‘Green Monkey Network’ to 100 million users we will have the digital reach to propel marijuana-friendly brands into the spotlight.

  

Bang Vapor is a marketer of vaporizer pens and E-liquid for the vaporizer industry, through the use of a razor and razor blade model. “Electronic cigarettes” or “e-cigs” and “vaporizers” are battery-powered products that enable users to inhale nicotine vapor without smoke, tar, ash or carbon monoxide.

 

Bang Vapor completed its soft launch in the first quarter of 2016. Due to costs involved in meeting the new deeming regulations imposed by the FDA on E-liquid Bang Vapor will not be sustainable or profitable moving forward. During the first quarter of 2017, all Bang Vapor digital property - i.e. Facebook and other social media pages, created content, subscriber lists, etc. have been transferred to Bang Digital Media.

Trademarks

  

On April 15, 2015, the Company applied for trademarks for “BANG,” (Ser. No. 86598258 “BANG VAPOR,” (Ser. No. 86598261) and “BANG VAPOR CLUB.” (Ser. No. 86598264). Those trademarks were granted and became officially registered on March 29, 2016.

 

On January 25 th , 2017, the Company applied for trademarks for “American Toker,” (Ser. No. 87312970, Ser. No. 87312927, Ser. No. 87312838, Ser. No. 87312795). Those trademarks were granted and became officially registered on January 25 th , 2017.

 

Marketing and Sales

 

The Company’s marketing strategy is a multi-pronged approach that includes viral marketing strategies, celebrity & social influencer endorsements, affiliate marketing, conventional online advertising and attending tradeshows. During 2016, we spent approximately $100,000 on the creation and growth of Bang Digital Media, the primary social media footprint of Bang Holdings Corp.  We employ only one full-time employee who handles all of the Company's social media accounts, which currently has approximately 1,600,000 subscribers across various social media platforms, including, but not limited to, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, and MassRoots.

 

Viral Marketing:  The marketing team aims to produce “hits” through the release of content developed by the company on 4TwentyToday’s “YouTube” and “Facebook” pages, other social media, and our website. A portion of our marketing budget will be allocated to developing viral videos produced by our CEO, Steve Berke. Mr. Berke has had significant successes popularizing YouTube videos in the past, including, “Pot Shop,” which generated around 14.5 million views. In addition to Mr. Berke’s YouTube successes, his two campaigns for mayor of Miami Beach received national coverage, including the cover of the New York Times, the cover of the Huffington Post and a 6-page spread in Maxim magazine. Mr. Berke was named one of the top eight comedians to ever run for office by ABC News. We intend to capitalize on his popularity, and reputation as a leading advocate for medical marijuana, through 4TwentyToday, a channel on YouTube and Facebook to promote the Company.   Our research has shown there are three distinct user groups in the vapor space; the hardcore vapor, ex-smokers/smokers wanting to replace their nicotine addiction, and marijuana users.  Marijuana enthusiasts are familiar with vaping technology and are a niche market that is easy for us to reach and promote our flavors and products to with limited competition from other competitors in the vaporizer and e-liquid space.

 

Celebrity and Social Influencer Endorsements:  We will build partnerships with influential social media personalities and celebrities in several key genres to serve as brand ambassadors. Each brand ambassador will have their own affiliate website to sell Bang products and make commissions off of each sale. By giving a unique platform to social media influencers to monetize their followings, Bang Vapor will be able to build brand awareness and employ an army of influencers to sell product in order to become a leading brand in the e-cig/vaporizer space.

 

Size of Market

 

According to the Tobacco Vapor Electronic Cigarette Association, there are approximately 3.5 million e-cigarette users. And while, according to Wells Fargo Securities, the total tobacco volume is decreasing by around 2% per year, the smokeless tobacco volume increased by around 5%. Additionally, Wells Fargo analysts expect the e-cigarette annual growth to be over 20%. (Source: www.ecigarette-politics.com/files/WF-DallasMarch2014.ppt)

 

According to research carried out by the Pew Research Center, 49 percent of Americans admit to having used marijuana, and some 18.9 million have done so within the last calendar month. (Source: http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2015/04/14/6-facts-about-marijuana/)

According to industry research the annual legal marijuana market is expected to grow to $22 billion within four years. (Source: The State of Legal Marijuna Markets, 3 rd Edition by Arcview Market Research)

 

There is significant market crossover within the communities Bang has built online, as many marijuana users are vaporizing their pot.

 

Competition

  

In the marijuana related digital media space, there is only one reasonable comparable that is publicly traded, Massroots. However, as opposed to their model, which resides on a platform that serves a more narrow demographic, Bang Digital Media creates multi-platform channels that directly serve the marijuana user, but can also be served to a far greater number of marijuana-friendly users. This allows for a far greater and more sustainable growth rate.

 

Employees and Independent Contractors

 

As of April 10, 2017, we have four (4) full time employees and one independent contractor. We have no part time employees.

 

Over time, we may be required to hire employees or engage independent contractors in order to execute various projects necessary to grow and develop the business. These decisions will be made by our Officers and Directors, if and when appropriate.

The following plan of operation provides information which management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our results of operations and financial condition. The discussion should be read along with our financial statements and notes thereto. This section includes a number of forward-looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward-looking statements are often identified by words like believe, expect, estimate, anticipate, intend, project and similar expressions, or words which, by their nature, refer to future events. You should not place undue certainty on these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our predictions.

 

Bang Holdings Corp. was incorporated in the state of Colorado on May 13, 2014. It is a brand management and digital advertising company that provides content and an influencer-based marketing network to the cannabis industry. We are a development-stage company and since our inception we have generated only minimal revenues from business operations.

 

Our independent registered public accounting firm has issued a going concern opinion. This means there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business unless we obtain additional capital to pay our ongoing operational costs. Accordingly, we must locate sources of capital to pay our operational costs.

 

Our operational expenditures are primarily related to development of Bang’s multi-channel advertising network, marketing costs associated with attracting and retaining users, and the costs related to being a fully reporting company with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

2016 was a transformative year for Bang Holdings. We quintupled the direct reach of our 4TwentyToday network of channels over the course of the year to around 500,000 users and expanded the reach of our social influencer network to more than 11 million. At five persons, our core team has remained small and highly efficient, and has built a firm foundation for growth in the quarters and years to come.

Plan of Operations  

 

In the twelve month period, we intend to develop our business in the following areas:

 

· Bang Vapor intends to liquidate inventory and cease all operations in 2017. Bang’s future in the vapor industry will be entirely managed by Bang Digital Media and focused on content creation, social media and digital marketing.  

 

·

Bang Digital Media entered into an agreement with Elevation Ministries to run their digital marketing, social media, and to manage exploitation rights of their ‘Church of Cannabis’ launching in Q2 2017. The two-year contract signed and announced in Q1 2017, will be worth a minimum of $250K and potentially more than a $1 million with bonuses.

 

Bang Digital Media will continue to pursue new clients to coordinate digital strategy, social media management, video production, web development, and other online marketing services.

 

· Bang Digital Media is building out a fully automated digital advertising platform, with a projected Q4 2017 launch. The platform allows publishers to always receive the highest price for their advertising space, while advertisers can reach the maximum number of targeted customers, including cannabis customers, at the best price.

 

If we are unable to build our customer base or gain any clients, we will be forced to cease our development and/or marketing operations until we raise money. Attempting to raise capital after failing in any phase of our development plan could be difficult. As such, if we cannot secure additional proceeds, we will have to cease operations and investors would lose their entire investment.

 

We intend to raise additional capital through private placements now that we have a quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board. If we need additional cash but are unable to raise it, we will either suspend marketing operations until we do raise the cash, or cease operations entirely. Other than as described in this paragraph, we have no other financing plans.

 

Financing

 

On August 22, 2014, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with Platinum Partners Liquid Opportunity Master Fund LP (“Platinum”) whereby the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of Common Stock to the Company at $0.35 per share for a purchase price of $350,000. In consideration for Platinum agreeing to purchase the 1,000,000 shares, the Company agreed to issue to Platinum share purchase warrants entitling Platinum the right to acquire 1,500,000 shares of the Company’s Common stock, at $0.35 per share. In October 2014, Platinum purchased the 10% Convertible Debenture for the aggregate amount of $500,000. On September 25, 2015, Platinum exercised 285,714 warrants for cash proceeds of $100,000. On January 26, 2016 the related party exercised 28,581 warrants for cash proceeds of $10,000. On March 16, 2016 the related party exercised 285,714 warrants for cash proceeds of $100,000. The outstanding principal balance on the note at December 31, 2016 and 2015 was $500,000. Accrued and unpaid interest on the note at December 31, 2016 and 2015 was $118,219 and $68,082, respectively. The Company is currently in default of the note, making the entire unpaid principal and interest due and payable.

The Company wrote down inventory to net realizable value as of December 31, 2016 and recorded a loss on write-off of inventory of $72,332 for the year ended December 31, 2016 in the consolidated statements of operations.

 

Operating Expenses:

 

We incurred operating expenses of $1,051,676 for the year ended December 31, 2016, as compared to $1,403,818 during the year ended December 31, 2015, a decrease of $352,142. The decrease in operating expenses is primarily attributable to a decrease of $237,872 in sales and marketing expenses, a decrease of $108,217 in professional fees and a decrease of $6,053 in general and administrative expenses during the year ended December 31, 2016 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2015. 

 

Interest Expense:

 

Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2016 was $65,796 primarily in relation to the Company’s convertible notes and accretion of debt discount. During the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company recorded interest expense of $293,724.

 

Net Loss:

 

We had a net loss of $1,189,654 for the year ended December 31, 2016 as compared to $1,697,215 for the year ended December 31, 2015, a decrease of $507,561. The decrease in net loss is primarily due to the significant decreases in operating expenses and interest expense.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. We have been funding our operations through the sale of our common stock and loans.

 

Our primary uses of cash have been for payroll and operating expenses. The following trends are reasonably likely to result in a material decrease in our liquidity in the near term:

   

· Development of a Company website

 

· Exploration of potential marketing and advertising opportunities, and

 

· The cost of being a public company

 

  9  

 

 

 

Our net revenues are not sufficient to fund our operating expenses. At December 31, 2016, we had a cash balance of $244,968. From January 1, 2016 through December 31, 2016, we raised $85,000 from the sale of convertible debentures to independent third party investors, $30,000 from the sale of convertible debentures to the Company’s president, $379,956 from the sale of common stock through private placements, $14,000 in advances from related parties and $210,000 from the exercise of warrants to fund our operating expenses, pay our obligations, and grow our company. In addition the Company paid related party convertible notes in the amount of $30,000 and related party advances in the amount of $15,000.

 

We currently have no material commitments for capital expenditures. We estimate that based on current plans and assumptions, our available cash will not be sufficient to satisfy our cash requirements under our present operating expectations without further financing. Other than working capital, we presently have no other alternative source of working capital. We may need to raise significant additional capital to fund our operating expenses, pay our obligations, and grow our company.  Therefore, our future operations may be dependent on our ability to secure additional financing.  Financing transactions may include the issuance of equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities, or other financing mechanisms. However, the trading price of our common stock and a downturn in the U.S. equity and debt markets could make it more difficult to obtain financing through the issuance of equity or debt securities. Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses, fail to collect amounts owed to us, or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek alternative financing. Furthermore, if we issue additional equity or debt securities, stockholders may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our common stock. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we will likely be required to curtail our marketing and development plans and possibly cease our operations.

 

We anticipate that depending on market conditions and our plan of operations, we may incur operating losses in the foreseeable future. Therefore, our auditors have raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Going Concern and Management’s Liquidity Plans

 

As reflected in the consolidated financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit at December 31, 2016, a net loss and net cash used in operating activities for the year ended and has generated only minimal revenues since inception. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The ability of the Company to continue its operations is dependent on management’s plans, which include the raising of capital through debt and/or equity markets, with some additional funding from other traditional financing sources, including term notes, until such time that funds provided by operations are sufficient to fund working capital requirements. The Company may need to incur additional liabilities with certain related parties to sustain the Company’s existence. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise any additional capital.

 

The Company may also require additional funding to finance the growth of our anticipated future operations as well as to achieve its strategic objectives. There can be no assurance that financing will be available in amounts or terms acceptable to the Company, if at all. In that event, the Company would be required to change its growth strategy and seek funding on that basis, if at all.

 

The Company’s plan regarding these matters is to raise additional debt and/or equity financing to allow the Company the ability to cover its current cash flow requirements and meet its obligations as they become due. There can be no assurances that financing will be available or if available, that such financing will be available under favorable terms. In the event that the Company is unable to generate adequate revenues to cover expenses and cannot obtain additional financing in the near future, the Company may seek protection under bankruptcy laws. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

  

Our financial statements and related public financial information are based on the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates; assumptions, judgments and subjective interpretations of accounting principles that have an impact on the assets, liabilities, revenues and expense amounts reported. These estimates can also affect supplemental information contained in our external disclosures including information regarding contingencies, risk and financial condition. We believe our use of estimates and underlying accounting assumptions adhere to U.S. GAAP and are consistently and conservatively applied. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We continue to monitor significant estimates made during the preparation of our financial statements.

 

Our significant accounting policies (along with new accounting pronouncements) are summarized in Note 2 of our consolidated financial statements. While all these significant accounting policies impact our financial condition and results of operations, we view certain of these policies as critical. Policies determined to be critical are those policies that have the most significant impact on our financial statements and require management to use a greater degree of judgment and estimates. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Our management believes that given current facts and circumstances, it is unlikely that applying any other reasonable judgments or estimate methodologies would cause effect on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or liquidity for the periods presented in this report.

 

We believe the following critical accounting policies and procedures, among others, affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements:

 

Use of Estimates in Financial Statements

  

The presentation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates during the period covered by these financial statements include the valuation of website costs, valuation of deferred tax asset, stock based compensation and any beneficial conversion features on convertible debt.

 

Fair value measurements and Fair value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company adopted FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements . ASC Topic 820 clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

 

Level 1-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.

 

Level 2-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.

 

Level 3-Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.

  

The Company did not identify any assets or liabilities that are required to be presented on the balance sheets at fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 820.

 

  12  

 

 

Due to the short-term nature of all financial assets and liabilities, their carrying value approximates their fair value as of the balance sheet date.  

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue on arrangements in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition . In all cases, revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed and determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is performed and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. The Company recognizes revenue when the products are shipped to the customers and collectability is reasonable assured.

 

The Company recognizes revenue from advertising transactions when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, delivery has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. 

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company recognizes compensation costs to employees under FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. Under FASB ASC Topic. 718, companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share based compensation arrangements include stock options, restricted share plans, performance based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant.

   

Equity instruments issued to other than employees are recorded on the basis of the fair value of the instruments, as required by FASB ASC Topic 505, Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees . In general, the measurement date is when either a (a) performance commitment, as defined, is reached or (b) the earlier of (i) the non-employee performance is complete or (ii) the instruments are vested. The measured value related to the instruments is recognized over a period based on the facts and circumstances of each particular grant as defined in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

The Company maintains a set of disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. An evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Principle Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this annual report. Based on that evaluation, the Company's Principle Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of such period end. Management will endeavor to enhance the Company's disclosure controls and procedures to cause them to become effective. 

 

Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

 

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the company. Internal control over financial reporting is a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Internal control over financial reporting includes maintaining records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions; providing reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of our financial statements; providing reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures of company assets are made in accordance with management authorization; and providing reasonable assurance that unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of company assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements would be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting is not intended to provide absolute assurance that a misstatement of our financial statements would be prevented or detected.

 

Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on that evaluation, management concluded that the Company's internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2016.

 

  13  

 

 

The matters involving internal controls and procedures that our management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were: (1) lack of a functioning audit committee, (2) lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; (3) inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; (4) lack of expertise with complex GAAP and Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") reporting matters and (5) management is dominated by one individual without adequate compensating controls. The aforementioned material weaknesses were identified by our Principal Executive and Financial Officer in connection with the review of our financial statements as of December 31, 2016. At this time, management has decided that given the risks associated with this lack of segregation of duties, the potential benefit of adding additional personnel to clearly segregate duties does not justify the expenses associated with such benefit. Management will periodically review this matter and may make modifications, including adding additional personnel, it determines appropriate.

 

Our management, including the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, does not expect that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system's objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all controls systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that do not apply to the Company as a smaller reporting company.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2016 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 10. Directors, Executive Officers and Corporate Governance

 

The following table sets forth the names and ages of officers and directors as of December 31, 2016. Our executive officers are elected annually by our Board of Directors. Our executive officers hold their offices until they resign, are removed by the Board, or a successor is elected and qualified.

 

Name

  Age   Position
Steve Berke   35   President, Chief Executive Officer, Secretary and Director
Adam Mutchler   37   Chief Financial Officer, Chief Operating Officer, Treasurer and Director
William Berke   72   Chief Medical Officer and Director

 

Set forth below is a brief description of the background and business experience of our executive officer and director for the past five years.

 

Steve Berke  was born and raised in North Miami, Florida. He graduated from Yale University in 2003. Steve has been President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company since May 2014. From 2010 through his engagement with the Company, Steve was a Sales Associate of Condonomics. Inc., a real estate company involved in sales and leasing of properties. In 2004, Mr. Berke was invited to be one of 16 young entrepreneurs on a primetime FOX network television show with Virgin Group CEO, Sir Richard Branson. Having learned the importance of branding and showmanship from his mentor Sir Richard, Mr. Berke began developing his own brand by performing stand-up comedy and creating a YouTube channel, where he produced comedic videos - which now have more than 30 million views.

 

  14  

 

 

In 2011, Mr. Berke ran for Mayor of Miami Beach against a popular two-term incumbent – he came second out of four candidates, and won almost 30 percent of the votes cast on Election Day. His unorthodox campaign utilized comedy and his YouTube channel as a vehicle to appeal to young and disenfranchised voters. Mr. Berke’s campaign gained national attention and was featured in Maxim magazine, the New York Times, the Houston Chronicle and the San Francisco Gate along with dozens of other publications from coast to coast. Two years later, Mr. Berke threw his hat in the mayoral race once more – this time with MTV2 filming his every move for a fly-on-the-wall style documentary. 

 

Adam Mutchler  graduated from Yale University in 2002. Adam has been the Chief Financial Officer of the Company since May 2014, From 2012-2013, Adam was a Freelance Producer, Project Manager and Visual Effect Manger for the films “Eden” and “Burned”. In 2012 and 2013, Adam was involved in Project Management for 5D organization. In 2011 and 2012, Adam was a Freelance Producer, Line Producer ad VFX Film and Viral Content for Steve Berke Comedy, Ghost Team One and Sixth World. He produced the feature film comedy Ghost Team One which sold to Paramount Pictures after premiering at the Slamdance Film Festival, and Eden, to be distributed by Voltage Pictures. Past credits include Swimfan, The Station Agent, Serenity and Catch That Kid. Mr. Mutchler leverages his abilities as a storyteller & filmmaker, his knack for viral content, his VFX & technical know-how, along with his ability to build and lead world-class teams in all his projects and endeavors.

 

William Berke  is a licensed family physician and has practiced medicine for more than 40 years. For 25 of those years, Dr. Berke served as a ring physician for both amateur and professional boxing federations - which included a dozen world championship bouts. He was a volunteer physician for the 1996 and 2000 Olympic Games, and also served on the Florida Governor's Medical Advisory Committee. He is currently a Senior Medical Examiner for the Federal Aviation Administration where he has served in that role since 1996.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence  

 

On August 22, 2014, the Company entered into an agreement to issue an unsecured convertible promissory note for $500,000 and security purchase agreement for 1,000,000 shares of common stock for $350,000 ($.35 per share), respectively with a related party. The note bears interest at an annual rate of 10% and is payable on or before 12 months from the date of issuance. The Company issued the holder a total of 1,500,000 warrants exercisable at a cashless conversion price of $.35 for a period of 5 years. The warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model with the following assumptions: dividend yield of 0%, annual volatility of 353%, risk free interest rate of 1.68%, and expected life of 5 years for a fair value of $524,960. The Company allocated $190,800 for the fair value of the convertible note payable. In addition, the note may be converted at any time, at the option of the holder, into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $0.35 per share, subject to adjustment. The Company recorded a debt discount of $190,900 for the fair value of the beneficial conversion feature and $190,900 for the value of the warrants received. As of December 31, 2015, the debt discount on the note was fully amortized. Amortization of the debt discount on the note for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 was $0 and $243,724, respectively.

 

The outstanding principal balance on the note at December 31, 2016 and 2015 was $500,000. Accrued and unpaid interest on the note at December 31, 2016 and 2015 was $118,219 and $68,082, respectively. The Company is currently in default of the note, making the entire unpaid principal and interest due and payable. See Note 6 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this document.

 

The Company’s President made advances of $600 to the Company during the year ended December 31, 2015 of which $593 was repaid. These amounts are included in due to related party at December 31, 2016 and 2015.

The term of the lease is for one year with an annual rent of $30,000 per year. The Company at its option has the right to extend for 9 additional years. On July 1, 2016, the lease was cancelled and the Company entered into a new lease agreement (see below). As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company accrued rent of $22,500 and $7,500, respectively under the lease agreement and is included in due to related party at December 31, 2016 and 2015.

On January 29, 2016, the Company’s President loaned the Company $30,000 pursuant to a convertible debenture. The Loan bears interest at 10% per annum, is due on January 29, 2017 and is convertible into common stock at the discretion of the holder. In addition, the Company agreed to issue 30,000 warrants that expire January 29, 2021. In addition, the note may be converted at any time, at the option of the holder, into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $0.35 per share, subject to adjustment.

On March 20, 2017, the Company entered into an agreement with the Church to provide social media services. The agreement is for two years and the Company will be compensated $10,000 monthly along with performance based compensation as further outlined in the agreement. An employee of the Company is a member of the board of directors and a founding member of the Church.

 

Director Independence

 

We do not have any independent directors. Because our common stock is not currently listed on a national securities exchange, we have used the definition of “independence” of The NASDAQ Stock Market to make this determination. NASDAQ Listing Rule 5605(a)(2) provides that an “independent director” is a person other than an officer or employee of the company or any other individual having a relationship which, in the opinion of the Company’s Board of Directors, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. The NASDAQ listing rules provide that a director cannot be considered independent if:

 

  ●   the director is, or at any time during the past three years was, an employee of the company;
     
  ●   the director or a family member of the director accepted any compensation from the company in excess of $120,000 during any period of 12 consecutive months within the three years preceding the independence determination (subject to certain exclusions, including, among other things, compensation for board or board committee service);
     
  ●   a family member of the director is, or at any time during the past three years was, an executive officer of the company;
     
  ●   the director or a family member of the director is a partner in, controlling stockholder of, or an executive officer of an entity to which the company made, or from which the company received, payments in the current or any of the past three fiscal years that exceed 5% of the recipient’s consolidated gross revenue for that year or $200,000, whichever is greater (subject to certain exclusions);
     
  ●   the director or a family member of the director is employed as an executive officer of an entity where, at any time during the past three years, any of the executive officers of the company served on the compensation committee of such other entity; or
     
  ●   the director or a family member of the director is a current partner of the company’s outside auditor, or at any time during the past three years was a partner or employee of the company’s outside auditor, and who worked on the company’s audit.

 

We do not currently have a separately designated audit, nominating or compensation committee.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of Directors of:

Bang Holdings Corp.

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Bang Holdings Corp. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ deficiency and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly in all material respects, the financial position of Bang Holdings Corp and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2016 and 2015 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has experienced net losses, negative working capital and used cash flows from operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

BANG HOLDINGS CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2016 AND 2015

 

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION, NATURE OF BUSINESS AND GOING CONCERN

 

(A) Organization

 

Bang Holdings Corp. was incorporated in the State of Colorado on May 13, 2014. The Company was organized to develop and sell E-Cigarette products.

 

Bang Vapor, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Florida on October 27, 2014. The Company was organized to develop and sell E-Cigarette products.

 

Bang Digital Media, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Florida on November 23, 2015. The Company was organized to develop digital and electronic media.

 

(B) Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).

 

(C) Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Bang Holdings Corp. and its wholly owned subsidiaries Bang Vapor, Inc. (from October 27, 2014) and Bang Digital Media, Inc. (from November 23, 2015) and are hereafter referred to as (the “Company’). All intercompany accounts have been eliminated in the consolidation.

 

(D) Going Concern

 

For the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company has incurred net operating losses and used cash in operations. As of December 31, 2016, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $3,647,691 and used cash in operations of $446,252. The company is also in default on the repayment of its convertible note payable of $500,000. Losses have principally occurred as a result of the substantial resources required for marketing of the Company’s products which included the general and administrative expenses associated with its organization and product development.

 

These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the outcome of these uncertainties. Management believes that the actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and implement its strategic plan provides the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

(A) Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid temporary cash instruments with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

  F- 7  

 

 

(B) Use of Estimates in Financial Statements

 

The presentation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates during the period covered by these financial statements include the valuation of website costs, valuation of deferred tax asset, stock based compensation and beneficial conversion features on convertible debt.

 

(C) Fair value measurements and Fair value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company adopted FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements. ASC Topic 820 clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

 

Level 1-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.

 

Level 2-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.

 

Level 3-Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.

 

The Company did not identify any assets or liabilities that are required to be presented on the balance sheets at fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 820.

 

Due to the short-term nature of all financial assets and liabilities, their carrying value approximates their fair value as of the balance sheet dates.

 

(D) Computer and Equipment and Website Costs

 

Computer Equipment and Website Costs are capitalized at cost, net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated by using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which is three to five years for all categories. Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures for betterments and renewals are capitalized. The cost of computer equipment and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts upon retirement or disposal with any resulting gain or loss being recorded in operations.

 

Software maintenance costs are charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures for enhanced functionality are capitalized.

 

The Company has adopted the provisions of ASC 350-50-15, “Accounting for Web Site Development Costs.” Costs inured in the planning stage of a website are expensed as research and development while costs incurred in the development stage are capitalized and amortized over the life of the asset, estimated to be three years.

 

    Depreciation/
    Amortization
Asset Category   Period
Furniture and fixtures   5 Years
Computer equipment   3 Years
Website costs   3 Years

 

  F- 8  

 

 

Computer and equipment and website costs consisted of the following:

 

    December 31,
2016
    December 31,
2015
 
             
Computer equipment   $ 6,845     $ 6,845  
Website development     -       17,174  
Total     6,845       24,019  
Impairments     -       (17,174 )
Accumulated depreciation     (2,789 )     (1,420 )
Balance   $ 4,056     $ 5,425  

 

Depreciation expense for the year ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 was $1,369 and $1,248, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2015 the Company impaired $17,174 of costs associated with the development of its website.

 

(E) Inventories

 

The Company’s inventories consist entirely of purchased finished goods. Inventories are stated at lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on the first-in, first-out basis. The Company wrote down inventory to net realizable value as of December 31, 2016 and recorded an inventory valuation allowance of $72,332 and a loss on write-off of inventory of $72,332 for the year ended December 31, 2016 in the consolidated statements of operations.

 

(F) Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue on arrangements in accordance with FASB ASC Topic. 605 “Revenue Recognition”. In all cases, revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed and determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is performed and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. The Company recognizes revenue when the products are shipped to the customers and collectability is reasonable assured.

 

The Company recognizes revenue from advertising transactions when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, delivery has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.

 

(G) Advertising, Marketing and Promotion Costs

 

Advertising, marketing and promotion expenses are expensed as incurred and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the accompanying statement of operations. For the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, advertising, marketing and promotion expense was $48,440 and $35,742, respectively.

 

(H) Segments

 

The Company operates in one segment and therefore segment information is not presented.

 

(I) Loss Per Share

 

The basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. The diluted loss per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net loss by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. The Company had 2,029,107 shares issuable upon the exercise of options and warrants and 1,826,407 shares issuable upon conversion of convertible notes payable that were not included in the computation of dilutive loss per share because their inclusion is anti-dilutive for year ended December 31, 2016. The Company had 2,924,286 shares issuable upon the exercise of options and warrants and 1,623,092 shares issuable upon conversion of convertible notes payable that were not included in the computation of dilutive loss per share because their inclusion is anti-dilutive for year ended December 31, 2015.

 

  F- 9  

 

 

(J) Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company recognizes compensation costs to employees under FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. Under FASB ASC Topic. 718, companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share based compensation arrangements include stock options, restricted share plans, performance based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant.

 

Equity instruments issued to other than employees are recorded on the basis of the fair value of the instruments, as required by FASB ASC Topic 505, Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees. In general, the measurement date is when either a (a) performance commitment, as defined, is reached or (b) the earlier of (i) the non-employee performance is complete or (ii) the instruments are vested. The measured value related to the instruments is recognized over a period based on the facts and circumstances of each particular grant as defined in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.

 

(K) Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB Codification Topic 740-10-25 (“ASC 740-10-25”). Under ASC 740-10-25, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740-10-25, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

The Company’s income tax expense differs from the “expected” tax expense for federal income tax purpose by applying the Federal & State blended rate of 37.63% as follows:

 

    2016     2015  
Expected income tax (benefit) expense at the statutory rate of 37.63%   $ (447,667 )   $ (638,662 )
Tax effect of expenses that are not deductible for income tax purposes (net of other amounts deductible for tax purposes)     145,015       279,053  
Deferred tax true-up     21,260        
Change in valuation allowance     281,392       359,609  
Provision for income taxes   $     $  

 

The components of deferred income taxes are as follows:

 

    2016     2015  
Deferred income tax asset:                
Fixed assets   $ 2,154     $ 4,308  
Inventory valuation allowance     27,219        
Accrued payroll and related expenses - officer     75,106        
Net operating loss carryforwards     659,874       478,653  
Valuation allowance     (764,353 )     (482,961 )
Deferred income taxes   $     $  

 

As of December 31, 2016, the Company has a net operating loss carry forward of approximately $1.75 million, and a deferred tax asset related to the timing difference on fixed asset depreciation of $5,725, an inventory valuation allowance of $72,332 and accrued officer payroll of $199,592 available to offset future taxable income through 2036. This results in deferred tax assets of approximately $764,000 as of December 31, 2016. The valuation allowance increased during the year ended December 31, 2016 by approximately $281,000. Tax returns for the year ended December 31, 2014, 2015 and 2016 remain open to Internal Revenue Service and State audits.

 

  F- 10  

 

 

(L) Shipping and Handling Costs

 

The Company includes shipping and handling fees billed to customers as revenue and shipping and handling costs to customers as cost of revenue.

 

(M) Reclassifications

 

Certain items in the prior year financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

 

(N) Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In August 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-15,  Presentation of Financial Statements-Going Concern.  The Update provides U.S. GAAP guidance on management’s responsibility in evaluating whether there is substantial doubt about a company’s ability to continue as a going concern and about related footnote disclosures. For each reporting period, management will be required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about a company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date the financial statements are issued. This Accounting Standards Update is the final version of Proposed Accounting Standards Update 2013-300-Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Going Concern Presumption, which has been deleted. The amendments in this update are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. The adoption of ASU 2014-15 is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. 

 

 In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-06, “Derivatives and Hedging” (topic 815). The FASB issued this update to clarify the requirements for assessing whether contingent call (put) options that can accelerate the payment of principal on debt instruments are clearly and closely related to their debt hosts. An entity performing the assessment under the amendments in this update is required to assess the embedded call (put) options solely in accordance with the four-step decision sequence. The updated guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of the update is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2016-06 is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

 In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation” (topic 718). The FASB issued this update to improve the accounting for employee share-based payments and affect all organizations that issue share-based payment awards to their employees. Several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment award transactions are simplified, including: (a) income tax consequences; (b) classification of awards as either equity or liabilities; and (c) classification on the statement of cash flows. The updated guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of the update is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2016-09 is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

 In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, "Statement of Cash Flows - Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments." ASU No. 2016-15 addresses specific cash flow classification issues where there is currently diversity in practice including debt prepayment and proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims. ASU 2016-15 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard on its consolidated financial statements.

 

 Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by FASB (including the Emerging Issues Task Force), the AICPA and the SEC, did not or are not believed by the Company management, to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.

Pursuant to the note agreement, for a period of one year following the Initial Closing Date, the Company shall agree to or not issue any Common Stock or securities convertible into or exercisable for shares of Common Stock (or modify any of the foregoing which may be outstanding) to any person or entity at a price per share or conversion or exercise price per share which shall be less than the conversion price in effect at such time without the consent of the purchaser, then the conversion price shall be reduced to such lower price. Under ASC 815-40-15, the Company is required to account for convertible debt with reset provisions when the following three items are present (1) one or more underlying amounts or payments are required (2) no initial net investment or an initial net investment that is smaller than would be required for other types of contracts (3) its terms require or permit net settlement, it can be readily settled net by means outside the contract or it provides for delivery of an asset that puts the recipient in a position not substantially different from the net settlement. ASC 815-40-15 further defines the requirement that the assets are readily convertible to cash. Due to the lack of a public market for the Company’s securities, the Company determined that the convertible notes payable were not readily convertible to cash and therefore no derivative liability has been recorded.

 

In addition, the Company agreed to issue 30,000 warrants with an exercise price of $1.50 per share that expire on January 29, 2021. The Company recorded a debt discount of $10,500 for the value of the warrants received. As of December 31, 2016, the debt discount on the note was fully amortized.

NOTE 9 – OPTIONS AND WARRANTS

 

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of the options granted. In applying the Black-Scholes option pricing model to options granted, the Company used the following weighted average assumptions:

 

   

For The Year Ended

December 31,

 
    2016     2015  
Risk free interest rate     * %     0.003-0.057 %
Dividend yield     * %     0.00 %
Expected volatility     * %     537 %
Expected life in years     *       0.17 - 2.42  
Forfeiture Rate     * %     0.00 %

 

*not applicable

 

Since the Company has limited trading history, volatility was determined by averaging volatilities of comparable companies.

 

The expected term of the option, taking into account both the contractual term of the option and the effects of employees’ expected exercise and post-vesting employment termination behavior: The expected life of options and similar instruments represents the period of time the option and/or warrant are expected to be outstanding. Pursuant to paragraph 718-10-S99-1, it may be appropriate to use the simplified method , i.e., expected term = ((vesting term + original contractual term) / 2) , if (i) A company does not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term due to the limited period of time its equity shares have been publicly traded; (ii) A company significantly changes the terms of its share option grants or the types of employees that receive share option grants such that its historical exercise data may no longer provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term; or (iii) A company has or expects to have significant structural changes in its business such that its historical exercise data may no longer provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term. The Company uses the simplified method to calculate expected term of share options and similar instruments as the Company does not have sufficient historical exercise data to provide a reasonable basis upon which to estimate expected term. The contractual term is used as the expected term for share options and similar instruments that do not qualify to use the simplified method.
