NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Elray Resources, Inc. ("Elray" or the "Company"), a Nevada Company formed on December 13, 2006, has been providing marketing and support for online gaming operations. The Company maintains its administrative office in Australia and its gaming operations is currently targeting Asian market.
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of Elray Resources, Inc. (“Elray” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s annual report for the year ended December 31, 2016 on Form 10-K filed on April 12, 2017.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the consolidated financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited consolidated financial statements for the most recent fiscal year ended December 31, 2016 have been omitted.
Use of Estimates
The preparation 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 at the date of the balance sheet. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reclassification
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current period presentation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid short-term investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Allowance for doubtful accounts
The allowance for doubtful accounts reflects our best estimate of probable losses inherent in the accounts receivable balance. The
Company determines the allowance based on known troubled accounts, historical experience, and other currently available evidence. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, allowances for doubtful accounts was $5,521.
Long Lived Assets
Long-lived assets to be held and used or disposed of other than by sale are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. When required, impairment losses on assets to be held and used or disposed of other than by sale are recognized based on the fair value of the asset. Long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale are reported at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets consist of expenditures for domain names and certain intellectual properties. The intangible assets are recorded at cost and amortized over its estimated useful life of 3 years.
Derivative Instruments
Derivatives are measured at their fair value on the balance sheet. In determining the appropriate fair value, the Company uses the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. Changes in fair value are recorded in the statement of operations.
Debt Discount
Debt discount is amortized over the term of the related debt using the effective interest rate method.
Revenues
Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collectability is probable. Prior to July 31, 2016, the Company recorded revenue at gross charge to its customers as the Company was the principal of the transactions. Starting August 1, 2016, due to compliance and legal environmental concerns, the Company modified its business model and changed its role to an agent. Therefore, revenues recorded after August 1, 2016 are presented net with software usage costs.
Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes reflect the net effect of (a) temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial purposes and the amounts used for income tax reporting purposes, and (b) net operating loss carry forwards. No net provision for refundable Federal income tax has been made in the accompanying statement of operations because no recoverable taxes were paid previously. Similarly, no deferred tax asset attributable to the net operating loss carry forward has been recognized, as it is not deemed likely to be realized.
Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share
Basic net earnings (loss) per common share are computed by dividing net earnings (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net earnings (loss) per common share is determined using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, adjusted for the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents. In periods when losses are reported, the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
The dilutive effect of outstanding stock options and warrants is reflected in diluted earnings per share by application of the treasury stock method. The dilutive effect of outstanding convertible securities is reflected in diluted earnings per share by application of the if-converted method.
The following is a reconciliation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per common share for the three and six months ended 2017 and 2016:

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 fully diluted earnings per share excludes notes convertible to 36,555,562,222 common shares and preferred stock convertible to 2,362 common shares, because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
Subsequent Events
Elray evaluated subsequent events through the date these financial statements were issued for disclosure purposes.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, a pronouncement was issued that creates common revenue recognition guidance for U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. The new guidance supersedes most preexisting revenue recognition guidance. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The new standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that reporting period, with an option to adopt the standard one year earlier. The new standard is to be applied either retrospectively to each period presented or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new pronouncement on its financial statements.
In February 2016, a pronouncement was issued that creates new accounting and reporting guidelines for leasing arrangements. The new guidance requires organizations that lease assets to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet related to the rights and obligations created by those leases, regardless of whether they are classified as finance or operating leases. Consistent with current guidance, the recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease primarily will depend on its classification as a finance or operating lease. The guidance also requires new disclosures to help financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The new standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that reporting period, with early application permitted. The new standard is to be applied using a modified retrospective approach. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new pronouncement on its financial statements.
Elray’s management does not believe that any other recently issued effective pronouncements, or pronouncements issued but not yet effective, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.
NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Elray 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 had a negative working capital of $9,817,500 at June 30, 2017. The factor raises substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Without realization of additional capital, it would be unlikely for Elray to continue as a going concern. Elray's management plans on raising cash from public or private debt, on an as needed basis, and in the longer term, revenues from the gambling business. Elray's ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on these additional cash financings, and, ultimately, upon achieving profitable operations through the development of its gambling business.
NOTE 3 – SETTLEMENT PAYABLE
On December 20, 2013, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with Tarpon Bay Partners LLC (“Tarpon”) whereby Tarpon acquired certain notes and accounts payable against the Company in the amount of $2,656,214. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company and Tarpon submitted the settlement agreement to the Circuit Court of the Second Judicial Circuit, Leon County, Florida for a hearing on the fairness of the agreement and the exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 for the shares that will be issued to Tarpon for resale (“Settlement Shares”). 75% of the proceeds less all applicable fees and charges from the resale of the Settlement Shares will be remitted to the original claim holders of the Company (“Remittance Amount”). The Company agreed to issue sufficient shares to generate proceeds such that the aggregate Remittance Amount equals $2,656,214. The settlement agreement was effective on January 27, 2014 when the court granted approval.
During the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company issued Tarpon 5,136,000 common shares. Net proceeds from the sales amounted to $933 was remitted to the original claim holders. As of June 30, 2017, the Company has settlement payable of $2,162,159.

On December 9, 2011, Elray entered into an Amended Splitrock Agreement whereby the Company acquired certain assets and liabilities of Splitrock. As part of the liabilities assumed in terms of the Amended Splitrock Agreement, the Company assumed notes payable of $292,929 bearing interest of 8% or 15% per annum. On January 27, 2014, the court granted an approval of the settlement agreement with Tarpon whereby the Company would issue shares to Tarpon for resale to pay off certain liabilities. As a result, principal of $247,500 and associated accrued interest acquired by Tarpon were reclassified to settlement payable.

NOTE 5 – DERIVATIVE LIABILITIES – NOTE CONVERSION FEATURE
Due to the conversion features contained in the convertible notes issued, the actual number of shares of common stock that would be required if a conversion of the note as further described in Note 4 was made through the issuance of the Company’s common stock cannot be predicted, and the Company could be required to issue an amount of shares that may cause it to exceed its authorized share amount. As a result, the conversion feature requires derivative accounting treatment and will be bifurcated from the note and “marked to market” each reporting period through the income statement. The fair value of the conversion future of these notes was recognized as a derivative liability instrument and will be measured at fair value at each reporting period.
The Company remeasured the fair value of the instrument as of June 30, 2017, and recorded an unrealized gain of $732,829 for the six months ended June 30, 2017. The Company determined the fair values of these liabilities using a Black-Scholes valuation model with the following assumptions:
