In offering the securities on our behalf, the Officers will rely on the safe harbor from broker-dealer registration set out in Rule 3a4-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

 

This Offering Circular shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sales of these securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful, prior to registration or qualification under the laws of any such state.

You should rely only on the information contained in this Offering Circular. We have not authorized anyone to provide you with different information. This offering circular may only be used where it is legal to sell these securities.

This offering circular is part of an offering statement that we filed with the SEC, using a continuous offering process. Periodically, as we have material developments, we will provide an offering circular supplement that may add, update or change information contained in this offering circular. Any statement that we make in this offering circular will be modified or superseded by any inconsistent statement made by us in a subsequent offering circular supplement. The offering statement we filed with the SEC includes exhibits that provide more detailed descriptions of the matters discussed in this offering circular.

We, and if applicable, those selling Common Stock on our behalf in this offering, will be permitted to make a determination that the purchasers of Common Stock in this offering are “qualified purchasers” in reliance on the information and representations provided by the purchaser regarding the purchaser’s financial situation. Before making any representation that your investment does not exceed applicable thresholds, we encourage you to review Rule 251(d)(2)(i)(C) of Regulation A (“Regulation A”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). For general information on investing, we encourage you to refer to www.investor.gov.

 

STATE LAW EXEMPTION AND PURCHASE RESTRICTIONS

 

Our Common Stock is being offered and sold only to “qualified purchaser” (as defined in Regulation A). As a Tier 2 offering pursuant to Regulation A, this offering will be exempt from state law “Blue Sky” review, subject to meeting certain state filing requirements and complying with certain anti-fraud provisions, to the extent that our Common Stock offered hereby is offered and sold only to “qualified purchasers” or at a time when our Common Stock is listed on a national securities exchange. “Qualified purchasers” include: (i) “accredited investors” under Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act (“Regulation D”) and (ii) all other investors so long as their investment in our Common Stock does not represent more than 10% of the greater of their annual income or net worth (for natural persons), or 10% of the greater of annual revenue or net assets at fiscal year-end (for non-natural persons).

 

To determine whether a potential investor is an “accredited investor” for purposes of satisfying one of the tests in the “qualified purchaser” definition, the investor must be a natural person who has:

 

1. an individual net worth, or joint net worth with the person’s spouse, that exceeds $1,000,000 at the time of the purchase, excluding the value of the primary residence of such person; or

 

2. earned income exceeding $200,000 in each of the two most recent years or joint income with a spouse exceeding $300,000 for those years and a reasonable expectation of the same income level in the current year.

4

 

If the investor is not a natural person, different standards apply. See Rule 501 of Regulation D for more details.

 

For purposes of determining whether a potential investor is a “qualified purchaser,” annual income and net worth should be calculated as provided in the “accredited investor” definition under Rule 501 of Regulation D. In particular, net worth in all cases should be calculated excluding the value of an investor’s home, home furnishings and automobiles.

In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “anticipate”, “believe”, “could”, “estimate”, “expect”, “intend”, “may”, “plan”, “potential”, “should”, “will” and “would” or the negatives of these terms or other comparable terminology.

 

You should not place undue reliance on forward looking statements. The cautionary statements set forth in this Offering Circular, including in “Risk Factors” and elsewhere, identify important factors which you should consider in evaluating our forward-looking statements. These factors include, among other things:

 

The speculative nature of the business;

 

Our reliance on suppliers and vendors;

 

Our dependence upon external sources for the financing of our operations, particularly given that there are concerns about our ability to continue as a “going concern;”

Our ability to finance our businesses;

 

Our ability to promote our businesses;

Dividends

 

The payment of dividends, if any, in the future, rests within the sole discretion of our board of directors. The payment of dividends will depend upon our earnings, our capital requirements and our financial condition, as well as other relevant factors. We have not declared any cash dividends since our inception and have no present intention of paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

 

There are no restrictions in our articles of incorporation or bylaws that prevent us from declaring dividends. The Nevada Revised Statutes, however, do prohibit us from declaring dividends where, after giving effect to the distribution of the dividend:

 

1. We would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or

 

2. Our total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the rights of shareholders who have preferential rights superior to those receiving the distribution.

 

Trading Market

THE OFFERING

 

Issuer:   Friendable, Inc.
     
Securities offered:   500,000 shares of our Series D Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”) at an offering price of $10.00 per share including up to 750,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock into which the Preferred Stock is convertible (the “Offered Shares”). (See “Distribution.”).
     
Number of shares of Series D Preferred Stock outstanding before the offering:   0 issued and outstanding as of September 30, 2020.
     
Number of shares of Series D Preferred Stock to be outstanding after the offering:   500,000 Series D Preferred Shares, assuming all the Offered Shares are sold in this offering.
     
Price per share:   $10.00.
     
Conversion of the Series D Preferred Stock:  

Each Offered Share of Series D Preferred Stock is convertible, at the option of the holder, at any time, and from time to time, into that number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock (whether whole or fractional) that have a Fair Market Value, in the aggregate, equal to, and based on, the Series D Conversion Price. The “Series D Conversion Price” shall initially be equal to a value of $10.00, per share. Such initial Series D Conversion Price, and the rate at which shares of Series D Preferred Stock may be further converted into shares of Common Stock, shall be subject to adjustment for Reclassification, Exchange, Substitution, Sales, Reorganizations, Mergers or Consolidations, as set forth in section 4.4 of the Series D Preferred Stock Certificate of Designation, which is an Exhibit hereto. “Fair Market Value” shall mean as of any date of determination, 80% of the average closing price of a share of Common Stock on the principal exchange or market on which such shares are then trading for the 20 trading days immediately preceding such date.

 

As an example, suppose Investor X purchases 10,000 Series D Preferred Shares under this Offering at $10.00 per share (for a total purchase price and value of $100,000) and the applicable average trading price of the Company’s common shares on conversion is $0.00375 per share, Investor X would be entitled to receive 33,333,333 common shares on full conversion of the original Series D Preferred investment, calculated by applying 80% of $0.00375 (or $0.003) against the original investment value of $100,000.

     
Trading Market:   Our Preferred Stock is convertible into common stock of the Company that is quoted on the OTC Pink marketplace under the symbol “FDBL”. There is no trading market for the Preferred Stock.
     
Use of Proceeds:   If we sell all of the shares being offered, our net proceeds (after our estimated offering expenses) will be $4,850,000. We will use these net proceeds for working capital and other general corporate purposes.
     
Risk factors:   Investing in our Series D Preferred Stock involves a high degree of risk. See “Risk Factors” below for additional detail.
     
Termination   This Offering will terminate on twelve months from the day the Offering is qualified, subject to extension for up to thirty (30) days as defined below or the date on which the maximum offering amount is sold (such earlier date, the “Termination Date”).

RISK FACTORS

 

Investment in our Series D Preferred Stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider, among other matters, the following risk factors in addition to the other information in this offering, our Annual Report on Form 10K, our Quarterly Reports on Form 10Q and our other public filings when evaluating our business because these risk factors may have a significant impact on our business, financial condition, operating results or cash flow. If any of the material risks described below or in subsequent reports we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) actually occur, they may materially harm our business, financial condition, operating results or cash flow. Additional risks and uncertainties that we have not yet identified or that we presently consider to be immaterial may also materially harm our business, financial condition, operating results or cash flow.

 

Risks Related to Our Business and Industry

 

Our success depends upon the continued growth and acceptance of paid subscription based access to our online/mobile applications, together with acceptance by sponsors and advertisers to online/mobile platforms, particularly paid listings, as an effective alternative to traditional, offline advertising and the continued commercial use of the internet.

 

Many online/mobile applications are access free to audiences. In addition, many sponsors and advertisers still have limited experience with mobile advertising and may continue to devote significant portions of their advertising budgets to traditional offline advertising media. Accordingly, we continue to compete with access free platforms (such as YouTube) and with traditional advertising media, including television, radio and print, in addition to a multitude of websites with high levels of traffic and mobile advertising networks, for a share of available advertising expenditures and expect to face continued competition as more emerging media and traditional offline media companies enter the online and mobile advertising markets. We believe that the continued growth and continued acceptance of paid subscription platforms and mobile advertising generally will depend, to a large extent, on its perceived effectiveness and the acceptance of paid exclusive and/or live streaming digital content , as well as related advertising models (particularly in the case of models that incorporate user targeting and/or utilize mobile devices), the continued growth in commercial use of the internet (particularly abroad) and smart devices, the extent to which web/mobile browsers, software programs and/or mobile applications that limit or prevent advertising from being displayed become commonplace and the extent to which the industry is able to effectively manage click fraud. Any lack of growth in the market for mobile advertising, particularly for paid listings, or any decrease in the effectiveness and value of mobile advertising (whether due to the passage of laws requiring additional disclosure and/or opt-in policies for advertising that incorporates user targeting or other developments) would have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

We had substantial client concentration with one technology services client, on a per contract basis, accounting for approximately 99% of our revenues through 2020 and, although we may continue to work with this client in the future, we do not anticipate doing so and thus face an inherent risk of not being able to sustain operations from our remaining Fan Pass business segment alone.

 

To date, the Company’s revenue has been almost entirely dependent on technology services contracts with one client, Answering Legal, to support operations until the Fan Pass subscription and merchandising segment of our business gained traction. At this time, our Fan Pass subscription and merchandising segment of our business is growing, and we are reducing our dependance on Answering Legal. While we anticipate being able to gain new technology services contracts from clients to offset our operating expenses, we may need to obtain additional debt and/or equity financing in the interim and may continue to incur substantial operating losses, depending on the traction our Fan Pass subscription and merchandising segment gains in 2021. There are inherent risks whenever a large percentage of total revenues are concentrated with one primary client and when that client is no longer anticipated to be the primary source of revenue for a company. Nonetheless, we are hopeful about the Fan Pass subscription and merchandising segment of our business in 2021. As a general matter, it is not possible for us to predict the future level of demand for our services that will be generated by any clients, including Answering Legal, or the future demand for the products and services of other similar clients. The loss of Answering Legal as a primary source of revenue or the failure to retain similar clients generally could negatively affect our revenues and results of operations and/or the trading price of our common stock.

We depend, in part, upon arrangements with third parties to drive traffic to our various websites and distribute our products and services.

 

We engage in a variety of activities, such as search engine optimization and application search optimization, designed to attract traffic to our application and convert visitors into repeat users and customers. How successful we are in these efforts depends, in part, upon our continued ability to enter into arrangements with third parties to drive traffic to our application, as well as the continued introduction of new and enhanced features, products and services that resonate with users and customers generally.

 

In addition, we have entered into a number of arrangements with third parties to promote and deliver mobile advertising to various social networks or mobile channels. Pursuant to these arrangements, third parties generally promote our application on various mobile applications, their websites or through e-mail campaigns and we either pay on a cost per impression basis (i.e. cost per view) or a fixed fee when visitors to these websites click through to or download our application. These arrangements are generally not exclusive, are short-term in nature and are generally terminable by either party given notice. If existing arrangements with third parties are terminated (or are not renewed upon their expiration) and we fail to replace this traffic and related revenues, or if we are unable to enter into new arrangements with existing and/or new third parties in response to industry trends, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

 

Even if we succeed in driving traffic to our application, we may not be able to convert this traffic or otherwise retain users unless we continue to provide quality products and services. We may not be able to adapt quickly and/or in cost-effective manner to frequent changes in user and customer preferences, which can be difficult to predict, or appropriately time the introduction of enhancements and/or new products or services to the market. Our inability to provide quality products and services would adversely affect user and customer experiences, which would result in decreases in users, customers and revenues, which would adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

As discussed below, our traffic building and conversion initiatives also involve the expenditure of considerable sums for marketing, as well as for the development and introduction of new products, services and enhancements, infrastructure and other related efforts.

 

Marketing efforts designed to drive traffic to our various websites may not be successful or cost-effective.

 

Traffic building and conversion initiatives involve considerable expenditures for online, mobile and offline advertising and marketing. We plan to make significant expenditures for online and mobile display advertising, event-based marketing and traditional offline advertising in connection with these initiatives, which may not be successful or cost-effective. In the case of paid advertising generally, the policies of sellers and publishers of advertising may limit our ability to purchase certain types of advertising or advertise some of our products and services, which could affect our ability to compete effectively and, in turn, adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

In addition, search engines have increasingly expanded their offerings into other, non-search related categories, and have in certain instances displayed their own integrated or related product and service offerings in a more prominent manner than those of third parties within their search engine results. Continued expansion and competition from search engines could result in a substantial decrease in traffic to our various websites, as well as increased costs if we were to replace free traffic with paid traffic, which would adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Lastly, as discussed above, we also have and will enter into various arrangements with third parties in an effort to increase traffic, which arrangements are generally more cost-effective than traditional marketing efforts. If we are unable to renew existing (and enter into new) arrangements of this nature, sales and marketing costs as a percentage of revenue would increase over the long-term.

9

 

Any failure to attract and acquire new, and retain existing, traffic, users and customers in a cost-effective manner could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

We rely in part on application marketplaces and Internet search engines to drive traffic to our products and services, and if we fail to appear high up in the search results or rankings, traffic to our platform could decline and our business and operating results could be adversely affected.

 

We rely on application marketplaces, such as Apple’s App Store, to drive downloads of our mobile applications. In the future, Apple or other operators of application marketplaces may make changes to their marketplaces which may make access to our products and services more difficult. Our rankings in Apple’s App Store may also drop based on the following factors:

 

the size and diversity of our registered member and subscriber bases relative to those of our competitors;

 

the functionality of our application and the attractiveness of their features and our services and offerings generally to consumers relative to those of our competitors;

 

how quickly we can enhance our existing technology and services and/or develop new features and localized opportunities and venue-based monetization opportunities in response to:

 

new, emerging and rapidly changing technologies;

 

the introduction of product and service offerings by our competitors;

 

changes in consumer requirements and trends in the single community relative to our competitors; and

 

our ability to engage in cost-effective marketing efforts, including by way of maintaining relationships with third parties with which we have entered into alliances, and the recognition and strength of our various brands relative to those of our competitors.

 

Our estimated income taxes could be materially different from income taxes that we ultimately pay.

 

We are subject to income taxes in the United States. Significant judgment and estimation is required in determining our provision for income taxes and related matters. In the ordinary course of our business, there are many transactions and calculations where the ultimate tax determinations are uncertain or otherwise subject to interpretation. Our determination of our income tax liability is always subject to review by applicable tax authorities and we are currently subject to audits in a number of jurisdictions. Although we believe our income tax estimates and related determinations are reasonable and appropriate, relevant taxing authorities may disagree. The ultimate outcome of any such audits and reviews could be materially different from estimates and determinations reflected in our historical income tax provisions and accruals. Any adverse outcome of any such audit or review could have an adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

 

A variety of new laws, or new interpretations of existing laws, could subject us to claims or otherwise harm our business.

 

We are subject to a variety of laws in the U.S. and abroad that are costly to comply with, can result in negative publicity and diversion of management time and effort and can subject us to claims or other remedies. Some of these laws, such as income, sales, use, value-added and other tax laws and consumer protection laws, are applicable to businesses generally and others are unique to the various types of businesses in which we are engaged. Many of these laws were adopted prior to the advent of the internet and related technologies and, as a result, do not contemplate or address the unique issues of the internet and related technologies. Laws that do reference the internet are being interpreted by the courts, but their applicability and scope remain uncertain.

10

 

For example, through our various businesses we post and link to third party content, including third party advertisements, links and websites, as well as content submitted by users, such as comments, photographs and videos. We could be subject to liability for posting or linking to third party content, and while we generally require third parties to indemnify us for related claims, we may not be able to enforce our indemnification rights. Some laws, including the Communications Decency Act, or CDA, and the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, or DMCA, limit our liability for posting or linking to third party content. For example, the DMCA generally protects online service providers from claims of copyright infringement based on use of third party content, so long as certain statutory requirements are satisfied. However, the scope and applicability of the DMCA are subject to judicial interpretation and, as such, remain uncertain, and the U.S. Congress may enact legislation limiting the protections afforded by the DMCA to online service providers. Moreover, similar protections may not exist in other jurisdictions in which our products are used. As a result, claims could be threatened and filed under both U.S. and foreign laws based upon use of third party content asserting, among other things, defamation, invasion of privacy or right or publicity, copyright infringement or trademark infringement.

 

Any failure on our part to comply with applicable laws may subject us to additional liabilities, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, if the laws to which we are currently subject are amended or interpreted adversely to our interests, or if new adverse laws are adopted, our products and services might need to be modified to comply with such laws, which would increase our costs and could result in decreased demand for our products and services to the extent that we pass on such costs to our customers. Specifically, in the case of tax laws, positions that we have taken or will take are subject to interpretation by the relevant taxing authorities. While we believe that the positions we have taken to date comply with applicable law, there can be no assurances that the relevant taxing authorities will not take a contrary position, and if so, that such positions will not adversely affect us. Any events of this nature could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

We may fail to adequately protect our intellectual property rights or may be accused of infringing the intellectual property rights of third parties.

 

We regard our intellectual property rights, including trademarks, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights and other similar intellectual property, as critical to our success. For example, we currently rely heavily on the trademark “Fan Pass” and “Fan Pass Live” to market our products and seek to build and maintain brand loyalty and recognition. We intend, in due course, subject to legal advice, to apply for trademark, copyright and/or patent protection in the United States and other jurisdictions. We regard our intellectual property, including our software and trademark, as valuable assets and intend to vigorously defend them against infringement. Effective trademark protection may not be available or may not be sought in every country in which products and services are made available and contractual disputes may affect the use of marks governed by private contract. We have reserved and registered certain domain names, however not every variation of a domain name may be available or be registered, even if available.

 

While there can be no assurance that registered trademarks and copyrights will protect our proprietary information, we intend to assert our intellectual property rights against any infringer. Although any assertion of our rights can result in a substantial cost to, and diversion of effort by, our Company, management believes that the protection of our intellectual property rights is a key component of our operating strategy.

 

Our application also relies upon trade secrets and certain copyrightable and patentable proprietary technologies relating to its software and related features, products and services.

 

We will rely on a combination of laws and contractual restrictions with employees, customers, suppliers, affiliates and others to establish and protect our various intellectual property rights. For example, we plan to apply to register and renew, or secure by contract where appropriate, trademarks and service marks as they are developed and used, and continue to reserve, register and renew domain names as we deem appropriate.

 

We also plan to apply for copyrights and patents or for other similar statutory protections as we deem appropriate, based on then current facts and circumstances. No assurances can be given that any copyright or patent application we file will result in a copyright or patent being issued, or that any future copyright or patent will afford adequate protection against competitors and similar technologies. In addition, no assurances can be given that third parties will not create new products or methods that achieve similar results without infringing upon copyrights or patents we may own in the future.

11

 

Despite these measures, our intellectual property rights may still not be protected in a meaningful manner, challenges to contractual rights could arise or third parties could copy or otherwise obtain and use our intellectual property without authorization. The occurrence of any of these events could result in the erosion of our brands and limitations on our ability to control marketing on or through the internet using our various domain names, as well as impede our ability to effectively compete against competitors with similar technologies, any of which could adversely affect our business, financial conditions and results of operations.

 

From time to time, we may be subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business, including claims of alleged infringement of trademarks, copyrights, patents and other intellectual property rights held by third parties. In addition, litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce our intellectual property rights, protect our trade secrets or to determine the validity and scope of proprietary rights claimed by others. Any litigation of this nature, regardless of outcome or merit, could result in substantial costs and diversion of management and technical resources, any of which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Patent litigation tends to be particularly protracted and expensive.

 

If we fail to grow our user base, or if user engagement or ad engagement on the platform declines, the revenue, business and operating results may be harmed.

 

The size of the user base and the users’ level of engagement are critical to our success. The financial performance has been and will continue to be significantly determined by success in growing the number of users and increasing their overall level of engagement on the platform as well as the number of ad engagements. We generate a substantial majority of our revenue based upon the number of downloads, migration to subscription accounts and engagement by the users with the ads that we display. If people do not perceive the services to be useful, reliable and trustworthy, we may not be able to attract users or increase the frequency of their engagement with the platform and the ads that we display. There is no guarantee that we will be successful in attracting more users or not suffer erosion of the user base or engagement levels. A number of factors could potentially negatively affect user growth and engagement, including if:

 

users engage with other products, services or activities as an alternative;

 

influential users, such as celebrities, athletes, journalists and brands or certain age demographics conclude that an alternative product or service is more relevant;

 

we are unable to convince potential new users of the value and usefulness of its products and services;

 

there is a decrease in the perceived quality of the content generated by our platform;

 

we fail to introduce new and improved products or services or if we introduce new or improved products or services that are not favorably received or that negatively affect user engagement;

 

technical or other problems prevent us from delivering our products or services in a rapid and reliable manner or otherwise affect the user experience;

 

we are unable to present users with content that is interesting, useful and relevant to them;

 

users believe that their experience is diminished as a result of the decisions we make with respect to the frequency, relevance and prominence of ads that we display;

 

there are user concerns related to privacy and communication, safety, security or other factors;

 

we become subject to hostile or inappropriate usage on our platform;

 

there are adverse changes in our products or services that are mandated by, or that we elect to make to address, legislation, regulatory authorities or litigation, including settlements or consent decrees;

 

we fail to provide adequate customer service to users; or

 

we do not maintain our brand image or its reputation is damaged.

12

 

If users do not continue to download and use our application and their engagement is not valuable to other users, we may experience a decline in the number of users accessing the products and services and user engagement, which could result in the loss of advertisers and revenue.

 

Our success depends on our ability to provide users with valuable content, which in turn depends on the profile descriptions and use of the app by others. We believe that one of our competitive advantages is the quality, quantity and real-time nature of the content on iHookup, and that access to unique or real-time content is one of the main reasons users visit us. We seek to foster a broad and engaged user community, and we encourage celebrities, athletes, and others to use our products and services to meet people and form relationships. If users do not continue to contribute profiles and we are unable to provide users with valuable and timely content or other people to engage with, our user base and user engagement may decline. Additionally, if we are not able to address user concerns regarding the safety and security of our products and services or if we are unable to successfully prevent abusive or other hostile behavior on the platform, the size of the user base and user engagement may decline.

 

If we are unable to compete effectively for users and advertiser spend, the business and operating results could be harmed.

 

Competition for users of its products and services is intense. Although we have developed a new platform for public self-expression and meeting people in real time, we face strong competition in this business. We compete against many companies to attract and engage users, including companies which have greater financial resources and substantially larger user bases, such as eHarmony, Match.com and others which offer a variety of Internet and mobile device-based products, services and content. As a result, competitors may acquire and engage users at the expense of the growth or engagement of our user base, which would negatively affect the business.

 

We believe that our ability to compete effectively for users depends upon many factors both within and beyond our control, including:

 

the popularity, usefulness, ease of use, performance and reliability of our products and services compared to those of our competitors;

 

the amount, quality and timeliness of content generated by our users;

 

the timing and market acceptance of our products and services;

 

the adoption of our products and services internationally;

 

its ability, and the ability of our competitors, to develop new products and services and enhancements to existing products and services;

 

the frequency and relative prominence of the ads displayed by us or our competitors;

 

our ability to establish and maintain relationships with platform partners that integrate with our platform;

 

changes mandated by, or that we elect to make to address, legislation, regulatory authorities or litigation, including settlements and consent decrees, some of which may have a disproportionate effect on us;

 

government action regulating competition;

 

our ability to attract, retain and motivate talented employees, particularly engineers, designers and product managers;

 

acquisitions or consolidation within our industry, which may result in more formidable competitors; and

 

our reputation and the brand strength relative to our competitors.

13

 

We also face significant competition for advertiser spend. We compete against online and mobile businesses, including those referenced above, and traditional media outlets, such as television, radio and print, for advertising budgets. In order to grow our revenue and improve our operating results, we must increase our share of spending on advertising relative to our competitors, many of which are larger companies that offer more traditional and widely accepted advertising products. In addition, some of our larger competitors have substantially broader product or service offerings and leverage their relationships based on other products or services to gain additional share of advertising budgets.

 

We believe that our ability to compete effectively for advertiser spend depends upon many factors both within and beyond our control, including:

 

the size and composition of our user base relative to those of our competitors;

 

our ad targeting capabilities, and those of our competitors;

 

the timing and market acceptance of our advertising services, and those of our competitors;

 

our marketing and selling efforts, and those of our competitors;

 

the pricing for our products relative to the advertising products and services of our competitors;

 

the return our advertisers receive from their advertising services, compared to those of our competitors; and

 

our reputation and the strength of our brand relative to our competitors.

 

If we are not able to compete effectively for users and advertiser spend our business and operating results would be materially and adversely affected.

 

User growth and engagement depend upon effective interoperation with operating systems, networks, and devices, that we do not control.

 

Currently, our application is available only on Apple’s iOS. We are dependent on the interoperability of our products and services with popular devices, and mobile operating systems that we do not control. Any changes in such systems or devices that degrade the functionality of our products and services or give preferential treatment to competitive products or services could adversely affect usage of our products and services. Further, if the number of platforms for which we develop our product expands, it will result in an increase in our operating expenses. In order to deliver high quality products and services, it is important that our products and services work with a range of operating systems and devices that we do not control. In addition, because our users access our products and services through mobile devices, we are particularly dependent on the interoperability of our products and services with mobile devices and operating systems. We may not be successful in developing or maintaining relationships with key participants in the mobile industry or in developing products or services that operate effectively with these operating systems and devices. In the event that it is difficult for our users to access and use our products and services on their mobile devices, our user growth and engagement could be harmed, and our business and operating results could be adversely affected.

 

We have a limited operating history in a new and unproven market for our platform, which makes it difficult to evaluate our future prospects and may increase the risk that we will not be successful.

14

 

We have developed a mobile app for public self-expression and meeting people in real time, and the market for our products and services is relatively new and may not develop as expected, if at all. People who are not our users may not understand the value of our products and services and new users may initially find our products confusing. Convincing potential new users of the value of our products and services is critical to increasing our user base and to the success of our business

 

We have a limited operating history which makes it difficult to effectively assess our future prospects or forecast future results. We encounter or may encounter many risks in this developing and rapidly evolving market. These risks and challenges include its ability to, among other things:

 

increase its number of users and user engagement;

 

successfully expand our business;

 

develop a reliable, scalable, secure, high-performance technology infrastructure that can efficiently handle increased usage;

 

convince advertisers of the benefits of our products compared to alternative forms of advertising;

 

develop and deploy new features, products and services;

 

successfully compete with other companies, some of which have substantially greater resources and market power than us, that are currently in, or may in the future enter, its industry, or duplicate the features of our products and services;

 

attract, retain and motivate talented employees, particularly engineers, designers and product managers;

 

process, store, protect and use personal data in compliance with governmental regulations, contractual obligations and other obligations related to privacy and security;

 

continue to earn and preserve its users’ trust, including with respect to their private personal information; and

 

defending ourselves against litigation, regulatory, intellectual property, privacy or other claims.

 

If we fail to educate potential users and potential advertisers about the value of our products and services, if the market for our platform does not develop as we expect or if we fail to address the needs of this market, our business will be harmed. We may not be able to successfully address these risks and challenges or other unforeseen risks and challenges. Failure to adequately address these risks and challenges could harm our business and cause our operating results to suffer.

 

Our business depends on the continued and unimpeded access to our products and services on mobile devices by our users and advertisers. If we or our users experience disruptions in service or if mobile service providers are able to block, degrade or charge for access to our products and services, we could incur additional expenses and the loss of users and advertisers.

 

We depend on the ability of our users and advertisers to access mobile devices. Currently, this access is provided by companies that have significant market power in the broadband and telecommunications access marketplace, including incumbent telephone companies, cable companies, mobile communications companies, government-owned service providers, device manufacturers and operating system providers, any of whom could take actions that degrade, disrupt or increase the cost of user access to our products or services, which would, in turn, negatively impact our business. We also rely on other companies to maintain reliable communications network systems that provide adequate speed, data capacity and security to us and our users. As the number of mobile device users continues to grow, frequency of use and amount of data transmitted, the communications infrastructure that we and our users rely on may be unable to support the demands placed upon it. The failure of the mobile communications infrastructure that we and/or our users rely on, even for a short period of time, could undermine our operations and harm our operating results.

15

 

Abusive activities by certain users could diminish the user experience on our platform, which could damage our reputation and deter our current and potential users from using our products and services.

 

There are a range of abusive activities that are prohibited by the our terms of service and are generally defined as unsolicited, repeated actions that negatively impact other users with the general goal of drawing user attention to a given person, account, site, product or idea. This includes posting large numbers of unsolicited mentions of a user, duplicate outlets, misleading links (e.g., to malware or click-jacking pages) or other false or misleading content, and aggressively following and un-following accounts, adding users to lists, sending invitations to inappropriately attract attention. Our terms of service also prohibit the creation of serial or bulk accounts, both manually or using automation, for disruptive or abusive purposes. Although we continue to invest resources to reduce spam and other abusive behavior, we expect spammers and abusers will continue to seek ways to act inappropriately on our platform. We will continuously combat spam and other abusive behaviors, including by suspending or terminating accounts we believe to be spammers and launching algorithmic changes focused on curbing abusive activities. Combatting spam and other abusive behaviors require the diversion of significant time and focus of our engineering team from improving our products and services. If spam or abusive behavior increase, this could hurt our reputation for delivering relevant content or reduce user growth and user engagement and result in continuing operational cost to us.

 

If we fail to effectively manage our growth, our business and operating results could be harmed.

 

If we experience rapid growth in our headcount and operations, it will place significant demands on our management, operational and financial infrastructure. We intend to continue to make substantial investments to expand our operations, research and development, sales and marketing and general and administrative organizations. We face significant competition for employees, particularly engineers, designers and product managers, from other Internet and high-growth companies, which include both publicly-traded and privately-held companies, and we may not be able to hire new employees quickly enough to meet our needs. To attract highly skilled personnel, we will need to continue to offer, highly competitive compensation packages. As we continue to grow, we are subject to the risks of over-hiring, over-compensating our employees and over-expanding our operating infrastructure, and to the challenges of integrating, developing and motivating a rapidly growing employee base. If we fail to effectively manage our hiring needs and successfully integrate new hires, our efficiency and ability to meet our forecasts and our employee morale, productivity and retention could suffer, and our business and operating results could be adversely affected.

 

Our business and operating results may be harmed by a disruption in our service, or by our failure to timely and effectively scale and adapt our existing technology and infrastructure.

 

Some of the reasons people use our platforms is for real-time information, personal contact and live streaming of music content. We may, in the future, experience service disruptions, outages and other performance problems due to a variety of factors, including infrastructure changes, human or software errors, hardware failure, capacity constraints due to an overwhelming number of people accessing our products and services simultaneously, computer viruses and denial of service or fraud or security attacks. Although we are investing significantly to improve the capacity, capability and reliability of our infrastructure, we are not currently serving traffic equally through the data centers that support our platforms. Accordingly, in the event of a significant issue at the data center supporting most of our network traffic, some of our products and services may become inaccessible to the public or the public may experience difficulties accessing our products and services. Any disruption or failure in our infrastructure could hinder our ability to handle existing or increased traffic on our platform, which could significantly harm our business.

 

As the number of our users increases and our users generate more content, including photos and videos hosted by us, we may be required to expand and adapt our technology and infrastructure to continue to reliably store, serve and analyze this content. It may become increasingly difficult to maintain and improve the performance of our products and services, especially during peak usage times, as our products and services become more complex and our user traffic increases. This would negatively impact our ability to attract users and advertisers and increase engagement of our users. We expect to continue to make significant investments to maintain and improve the capacity, capability and reliability of our infrastructure. To the extent that we do not effectively address capacity constraints, upgrade our systems as needed and continually develop our technology and infrastructure to accommodate actual and anticipated changes in technology, our business and operating results may be harmed.

16

 

If we are unable to maintain and promote our brands, our business and operating results may be harmed.

 

We believe that maintaining and promoting our brands is critical to expanding our base of users and advertisers. Maintaining and promoting our brands will depend largely on our ability to continue to provide useful, reliable and innovative products and services, which we may not do successfully. We may introduce new features, products, services or terms of service that users, platform partners or advertisers do not like, which may negatively affect our brand. Additionally, the actions of platform partners may affect our brands if users do not have a positive experience using third-party applications. Our brands may also be negatively affected by the actions of users that are hostile or inappropriate to other people, by users impersonating other people, by users identified as spam, by users introducing excessive amounts of spam on its platform or by third parties obtaining control over users’ accounts. Maintaining and enhancing our brands may require iHookup to make substantial investments and these investments may not achieve the desired goals. If we fail to successfully promote and maintain our brand or if we incur excessive expenses in this effort, our business and operating results could be adversely affected.

 

Negative publicity could adversely affect our business and operating results.

 

Negative publicity about us, including about our product quality and reliability, changes to our products and services, privacy and security practices, litigation, regulatory activity, the actions of our users or user experience with our products and services, even if inaccurate, could adversely affect our reputation and the confidence in and the use of our products and services. For example, service outages could result in widespread media reports. Such negative publicity could also have an adverse effect on the size, engagement and loyalty of our user base and result in decreased revenue, which could adversely affect our business and operating results.

 

We focus on product innovation and user engagement rather than short-term operating results.

 

We encourage employees to quickly develop and help us launch new and innovative features. We focus on improving the user experience for our products and services and on developing new and improved products and services for the advertisers on our platform. We prioritize innovation and the experience for users and advertisers on our platform over short-term operating results. We may make product and service decisions that may reduce our short-term operating results if we believe that the decisions are consistent with its goals to improve the user experience and performance for advertisers, which we believe will improve our operating results over the long term. These decisions may not be consistent with the short-term expectations and may not produce the long-term benefits that we expect, in which case our user growth and user engagement, our relationships with advertisers and our business and operating results could be harmed. In addition, our focus on the user experience may negatively impact our relationships with existing or prospective advertisers. This could result in a loss of advertisers, which could harm our revenue and operating results.

 

Our products and services may contain undetected software errors, which could harm our business and operating results.

 

Our products and services incorporate complex software and we encourage our employees to quickly develop and help us launch new and innovative features. Our software may now or in the future contain, errors, bugs or vulnerabilities. Some errors in the software code may only be discovered after the product or service has been released. Any errors, bugs or vulnerabilities discovered in our code after release could result in damage to our reputation, loss of users, loss of platform partners, loss of advertisers or advertising revenue or liability for damages, any of which could adversely affect our business and operating results.

17

 

Our business is subject to complex and evolving U.S. laws and regulations. These laws and regulations are subject to change and uncertain interpretation, and could result in claims, changes to its business practices, monetary penalties, increased cost of operations or declines in user growth, user engagement or ad engagement, or otherwise harm our business.

 

We are subject to a variety of laws and regulations in the United States that involve matters central to our business, including privacy, rights of publicity, data protection, content regulation, intellectual property, competition, protection of minors, consumer protection and taxation. Many of these laws and regulations are still evolving and being tested in courts and could be interpreted or applied in ways that could harm our business, particularly in the new and rapidly evolving industry in which we operate. The introduction of new products or services may subject us to additional laws and regulations. There have been a number of recent legislative proposals in the United States, at both the federal and state levels, that would impose new obligations in areas such as privacy. The U.S. government, including the Federal Trade Commission, or the FTC, and the Department of Commerce, has announced that it is reviewing the need for greater regulation for the collection of information concerning user behavior on the Internet and over mobile devices, including regulation aimed at restricting certain tracking and targeted advertising practices.

 

Additionally, recent amendments to U.S. patent laws may affect the ability of companies to protect their innovations and defend against claims of patent infringement. Having personal information may subject us to additional regulation. Further, it is difficult to predict how existing laws and regulations will be applied to its business and the new laws and regulations to which we may become subject, and it is possible that they may be interpreted and applied in a manner that is inconsistent with our practices. These existing and proposed laws and regulations can be costly to comply with and can delay or impede the development of new products and services, result in negative publicity, significantly increase our operating costs, require significant time and attention of management and technical personnel and subject us to inquiries or investigations, claims or other remedies, including fines or demands that we modify or cease existing business practices.

 

Even though our platform is for public self-expression conversation and personal interaction, user trust regarding privacy is important to the growth of users and the increase in user engagement on our platform, and privacy concerns relating to our products and services could damage our reputation and deter current and potential users and advertisers from using our products and services.

 

From time to time, concerns have been expressed by governments, regulators and others about whether mobile products, services or practices compromise the privacy of users and others. Concerns about, governmental or regulatory actions involving practices with regard to the collection, use, disclosure or security of personal information or other privacy-related matters, even if unfounded, could damage our reputation, cause us to lose users and advertisers and adversely affect our operating results. While we will strive to comply with applicable data protection laws and regulations, as we strive to comply with our own posted privacy policies and other obligations we may have with respect to privacy and data protection, the failure or perceived failure to comply may result, in inquiries and other proceedings or actions against us by governments, regulators or others. These inquiries could result in negative publicity and damage to our reputation and brand, each of which could cause us to lose users and advertisers, which could have an adverse effect on our business.

 

Any systems failure or compromise of our security that results in the unauthorized access to or release of our users’ or advertisers’ data could significantly limit the adoption of our products and services and cause harm to our reputation and brand and, therefore, our business. We expect to continue to expend significant resources to protect against security breaches. The risk that these types of events could seriously harm our business is likely to increase as we expand the number of products and services we offer, increase the size of our user base and operate in other countries.

18

 

If our security measures are breached, or if our products and services are subject to attacks that degrade or deny the ability of users to access our products and services, our products and services may be perceived as not being secure, users and advertisers may curtail or stop using our products and services and our business and operating results could be harmed.

 

Our products and services involve the storage and transmission of users’ and advertisers’ information, and security breaches expose us to a risk of loss of this information, litigation and potential liability. We may experience cyber-attacks of varying degrees, and as a result, unauthorized parties may obtain, and may in the future obtain, access to its data or its users’ or advertisers’ data. Our security measures may also be breached due to employee error, malfeasance or otherwise. Additionally, outside parties may attempt to fraudulently induce employees, users or advertisers to disclose sensitive information in order to gain access to our data or our users’ or advertisers’ data or accounts, or may otherwise obtain access to such data or accounts. Since our users and advertisers may use their accounts to establish and maintain online identities, unauthorized communications from our accounts that have been compromised may damage their reputations. Any such breach or unauthorized access could result in significant legal and financial exposure, damage to our reputation and a loss of confidence in the security of our products and services that could have an adverse effect on our business and operating results. Because the techniques used to obtain unauthorized access, disable or degrade service or sabotage systems change frequently and often are not recognized until launched against a target, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate preventative measures. If an actual or perceived breach of security occurs, the market perception of the effectiveness of our security measures could be harmed, we could lose users and advertisers and we may incur significant legal and financial exposure, including legal claims and regulatory fines and penalties. Any of these actions could have a material and adverse effect on our business, reputation and operating results.

 

We depend on highly skilled personnel to grow and operate our business, and if we are unable to hire, retain and motivate its personnel, we may not be able to grow effectively.

 

Our future success will depend upon our continued ability to identify, hire, develop, motivate and retain highly skilled personnel, including senior management, engineers, designers and product managers. Our ability to execute efficiently is dependent upon contributions from our employees, in particular our senior management team. We do not maintain key person life insurance for any employee. In addition, from time to time, there may be changes in our senior management team that may be disruptive to our business. If our senior management team, including any new hires that we may make, fails to work together effectively and to execute our plans and strategies on a timely basis, our business could be harmed. Our growth strategy also depends on our ability to expand our organization with highly skilled personnel. Identifying, recruiting, training and integrating qualified individuals will require significant time, expense and attention. Competition for highly skilled personnel is intense, particularly in the San Francisco Bay Area, where our headquarters is located. We may need to invest significant amounts of cash and equity to attract and retain new employees and we may never realize returns on these investments. If we are not able to effectively add and retain employees, our ability to achieve our strategic objectives will be adversely impacted, and our business will be harmed.

 

Our business is subject to the risks of earthquakes, fire, power outages, floods and other catastrophic events, and to interruption by man-made problems such as terrorism.

 

A significant natural disaster, such as an earthquake, fire, flood or significant power outage could have a material adverse impact on our business, operating results, and financial condition. Our headquarters is located in the San Francisco Bay Area, a region known for seismic activity. Despite any precautions we may take, the occurrence of a natural disaster or other unanticipated problems at our data centers could result in lengthy interruptions in our services. In addition, acts of terrorism and other geo-political unrest could cause disruptions in our business. All of the aforementioned risks may be further increased if our disaster recovery plans prove to be inadequate. We have a disaster recovery program, which allows us to move production to a back-up data center in the event of a catastrophe. Although this program is functional, we do not currently serve network traffic equally from each data center, so if our primary data center shuts down, there will be a period of time that our products or services, or certain of our products or services, will remain inaccessible to our users or our users may experience severe issues accessing our products and services. We do not carry business interruption insurance sufficient to compensate us for the potentially significant losses, including the potential harm to our business that may result from interruptions in our ability to provide our products and services.

Risks Related to Our Company

 

Messrs. Dean and Robert Rositano, Jr., as our directors and officers, own a significant percentage of the voting power of our stock and will be able to exercise significant influence and control over the matters subject to stockholder approval and our operations.

 

Messrs. Dean and Robert Rositano, Jr. may be deemed to own (directly and/or beneficially) 56.24% of our Series A preferred stock. As of September 30, 2020, the following entities and individuals own the following shares of our Series A preferred stock:

 

Messrs. Dean and Robert Rositano, Jr. each directly own 1,882 and 1,881 shares, respectively.

 

Copper Creek Holdings, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company owned and managed by Robert Rositano and his wife Stacy Rositano, owns 14,730 shares (74.45%), thus each may be deemed to beneficially own one half;

 

The holders of Series A preferred stock are entitled to cast votes equal to the number of votes equal to the number of whole shares of common stock into which the shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder are convertible. The total aggregate issued shares of Series A Preferred Stock at any given time regardless of their number shall be convertible into the number of shares of common stock which equals nine (9) times the total number of shares of common stock which are issued and outstanding at the time of any conversion, at the option of the preferred holders or until the closing of a Qualified Financing (i.e. the sale and issuance of our equity securities that results in gross proceeds in excess of $2,500,000) at one time or in the same round. As a result of the Titan Iron Ore Corp. and iHookup merger transaction, the former iHookup stockholders received a controlling interest in the Company due to the voting rights of the Series A Preferred Stock being connected to their super-majority conversion rights. As a result of Messrs. Dean and Robert Rositano Jr.’s ownership interests and voting power described above, Messrs. Dean and Robert Rositano Jr. currently are in a position to influence and control, subject to our organizational documents and Nevada law, the composition of our Board of Directors and the outcome of corporate actions requiring stockholder approval, such as mergers, business combinations and dispositions of assets, among other corporate transactions. In addition, this concentration of voting power could discourage others from initiating a potential merger, takeover or other change of control transaction that may otherwise be beneficial to the Company, which could adversely affect the market price of our securities.

 

If we are unable to pay the convertible promissory notes owed by the Company when obligations become due, the note holders may take adverse proceedings under terms of default.

 

In the event of default under terms in our convertible promissory notes, the note holder may enforce remedies including acceleration of payment in full plus interest and other charges, and an increase in interest rates of up to 24% when allowable by law.

 

Our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting are not effective, which may cause our financial reporting to be unreliable and lead to misinformation being disseminated to the public.

 

Our management evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2019 and concluded that as of those dates, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. The ineffectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures was due to the following material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting (i) inadequate segregation of duties and ineffective risk assessment; (ii) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of both US GAAP and SEC guidelines and (iii) inadequate technical skills of accounting personnel.

 

As of the date of this Offering Circular, we believe that these material weaknesses continue to exist and our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting are not effective. If such material weakness and ineffective controls are not promptly corrected in the future, our ability to report quarterly and annual financial results or other information required to be disclosed on a timely and accurate basis may be adversely affected. Also, such material weakness and ineffective controls could cause our financial reporting to be unreliable and lead to misinformation being disseminated to the public. Investors relying upon this misinformation may make an uninformed investment decision.

20

 

We have a limited operating history on which to base an evaluation of our business and prospects.

 

We have a short operating history, which limits our ability to forecast our future operating results and subjects us to a number of uncertainties, including our ability to plan for and model future growth. We have encountered and will continue to encounter risks and uncertainties frequently experienced by growing companies in developing industries. If our assumptions regarding these uncertainties, which we use to plan our business, are incorrect or change in reaction to changes in our markets, or if we do not address these risks successfully, our operating and financial results could differ materially from our expectations and our business could suffer.

 

As our Series D Preferred Stock, which is the subject of this Offering, is convertible into Common Stock of the Company that is quoted on the OTC Markets Group marketplace under the symbol “FDBL,” the following risk factors related to our common stock are relevant to this offering:

 

If we issue additional shares in the future, it will result in the dilution of our existing shareholders.

 

As of September 30, 2020, our articles of incorporation authorize the issuance of up to 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share and 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Our board of directors may choose to issue some or all of such shares to acquire one or more companies or properties and to fund our overhead and general operating requirements and/or choose to increase the Company’s authorized capital. The increase and issuance of any such shares will reduce the book value per share and may contribute to a reduction in the market price of the outstanding shares of our common stock. If we issue any such additional shares, such issuance will reduce the proportionate ownership and voting power of all current shareholders. Further, such issuance may result in a change of control of our corporation.

 

The price of our common stock may be negatively impacted by factors which are unrelated to our operations.

 

The market price of our common stock could fluctuate substantially due to a variety of factors, including market perception of our ability to achieve our planned growth, quarterly operating results of our competitors, trading volume in our common stock, changes in general conditions in the economy and the financial markets or other developments affecting our competitors or us. In addition, the stock market is subject to extreme price and volume fluctuations. This volatility has had a significant effect on the market price of securities issued by many companies for reasons unrelated to their operating performance and could have the same effect on our common stock.

 

We do not intend to pay cash dividends on any investment in the shares of stock of our company.

 

We have never paid any cash dividends and currently do not intend to pay any cash dividends for the foreseeable future. Because we do not intend to declare cash dividends, any gain on an investment in our company will need to come through an increase in the stock’s price. This may never happen and investors may lose all of their investment in our company.

 

Trading of our stock is restricted by the Securities Exchange Commission’s penny stock regulations, which may limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our common stock.

 

The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted regulations which generally define “penny stock” to be any equity security that has a market price (as defined) less than $5.00 per share or an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our common stock securities are covered by the penny stock rules, which impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors”. The term “accredited investor” refers generally to institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouse. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document in a form prepared by the Securities and Exchange Commission, which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information, must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to effecting the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer’s confirmation. In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market for the stock that is subject to these penny stock rules. Consequently, these penny stock rules may affect the ability of broker-dealers to trade our securities. We believe that the penny stock rules discourage investor interest in and limit the marketability of our common stock.

21

 

FINRA sales practice requirements may also limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.

 

In addition to the “penny stock” rules described above, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (known as “FINRA”) has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low-priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares.

 

Our common stock price has been volatile and your investment could lose value.

 

The trading price of our common stock has been volatile and could be subject to wide fluctuations due to various factors. The timing of announcements in the public market regarding new products, product enhancements or technological advances by us or our competitors, and any announcements by us or our competitors of acquisitions, major transactions or management changes could also affect our stock price. Our stock price is subject to speculation in the press and the analyst community, changes in recommendations or earnings estimates by financial analysts, changes in investors’ or analysts’ valuation measures for our stock and market trends unrelated to our performance. A significant drop in our stock price could also expose us to the risk of securities class action lawsuits, which could result in substantial costs and divert management’s attention and resources, which could adversely affect our business. Moreover, if the per share trading price of our common stock declines significantly, you may be unable to resell your shares at or above the public offering price. We cannot assure you that the per share trading price of our common stock will not fluctuate or decline significantly in the future.

 

The trading price of our common stock has been low, and the sale of a substantial number of shares in the public market could depress the price of our common stock.

 

Our common stock is traded on the OTC Markets Group marketplace and historically has had a low average daily trading price relative to many other stocks. Thinly traded stocks can have more price volatility than stocks trading in an active public market, which can lead to significant price swings even when a relatively small number of shares are being traded, and can limit an investor’s ability to quickly sell blocks of stock. If there continues to be low average daily trading volume or price in our common stock investors may be unable to quickly liquidate their investments or at prices investors consider to be adequate.

 

Because our common stock is quoted and traded on the OTC Markets Group marketplace, short selling could increase the volatility of our stock price.

 

Short selling occurs when a person sells shares of stock which the person does not yet own and promises to buy stock in the future to cover the sale. The general objective of the person selling the shares short is to make a profit by buying the shares later, at a lower price, to cover the sale. Significant amounts of short selling, or the perception that a significant amount of short sales could occur, could depress the market price of our common stock. In contrast, purchases to cover a short position may have the effect of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of our common stock, and together with the imposition of the penalty bid, may stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of our common stock. As a result, the price of our common stock may be higher than the price that otherwise might exist in the open market. If these activities are commenced, they may be discontinued at any time. These transactions may be effected on the OTC Markets Group marketplace or any other available markets or exchanges. Such short selling if it were to occur could impact the value of our stock in an extreme and volatile manner to the detriment of our shareholders.

Risks Relating to the Early Stage of our Company and Ability to Raise Capital

 

We are at a very early stage and our success is subject to the substantial risks inherent in the establishment of a new business venture.

 

The implementation of our business strategy is in a very early stage and subject to all of the risks inherent in the establishment of a new business venture. Accordingly, our intended business and prospective operations may not prove to be successful in the near future, if at all. Any future success that we might enjoy will depend upon many factors, many of which are beyond our control, or which cannot be predicted at this time, and which could have a material adverse effect upon our financial condition, business prospects and operations and the value of an investment in our company.

 

We expect to suffer continued operating losses and we may not be able to achieve profitability.

 

We expect to continue to incur significant development and marketing expenses in the foreseeable future related to the launch and commercialization of our products and services. As a result, we will be sustaining substantial operating and net losses, and it is possible that we will never be able to achieve profitability.

 

We may have difficulty raising additional capital, which could deprive us of necessary resources.

 

In order to support the initiatives envisioned in our business plan, we will need to raise additional funds through public or private debt or equity financing, collaborative relationships or other arrangements. Our ability to raise additional financing depends on many factors beyond our control, including the state of the capital markets, the market price of our common stock, and the development of competitive projects by others. Because our common stock is not listed on a major stock market, many investors may not be willing or allowed to purchase our common shares or may demand steep discounts. Sufficient additional financing may not be available to us or may be available only on terms that would result in further dilution to the current owners of our common stock.

 

If we are unsuccessful in raising additional capital, or the terms of raising such capital are unacceptable, we may have to modify our business plan and/or significantly curtail our planned activities. If we are successful raising additional capital through the issuance of additional equity, our investor’s interests will be diluted.

 

There are substantial doubts about our ability to continue as a going concern and if we are unable to continue our business, our shares may have little or no value.

 

Our ability to become a profitable operating company is dependent upon our ability to generate revenues and/or obtain financing adequate to implement our business plan. Achieving a level of revenues adequate to support our cost structure, our continued operating losses and our net cash used in operations has raised substantial doubts about our ability to continue as a going concern. We plan to attempt to raise additional equity capital by issuing shares and, if necessary through one or more private placement or public offerings, and via the securities purchase agreement/equity line financing. However, the doubts raised relating to our ability to continue as a going concern may make our shares an unattractive investment for potential investors. These factors, among others, may make it difficult to raise any additional capital.

 

Failure to effectively manage our growth could place additional strains on our managerial, operational and financial resources and could adversely affect our business and prospective operating results.

 

Our anticipated growth is expected to continue to place a strain on our managerial, operational and financial resources. Further, as we expand our user and advertiser base, we will be required to manage multiple relationships. Any further growth by us, or an increase in the number of our strategic relationships will increase this strain on our managerial, operational and financial resources. This strain may inhibit our ability to achieve the rapid execution necessary to implement our business plan, and could have a material adverse effect upon our financial condition, business prospects and prospective operations and the value of an investment in our company.

23

 

We may fail to raise sufficient capital.

 

To the extent that we fail to obtain sufficient operating capital, we may be unable to deal with presently unforeseen contingencies in the future or be able to fund our operations. In addition, we may have more difficulty or find it impossible, to raise third party financing from investors or financial institutions.

 

Our reserves may be insufficient.

 

We intend to establish a reserve fund, as determined in the Board’s discretion, for normal working capital contingencies. However, we have been unable to do so. If the reserves are not available to the Company, it may be necessary to attempt to raise additional capital or financing. In the event that such capital or financing is not available on favorable terms, we may be forced to raise additional capital on unfavorable terms. In fact, we have been forced to issue several convertible notes at substantial discounts and interest rates in order to raise the requisite capital for operations.

 

Investors in this offering may not be entitled to a jury trial with respect to claims arising under the subscription agreements, which could result in less favorable outcomes to investors in any action under that agreement.

 

Investors in this offering will be bound by the subscription agreement that includes a provision under which investors waive the right to a jury trial of any claim they may have against the company arising out of or relating to the subscription agreement, including any claim under the federal securities laws.  If we opposed a jury trial demand based on the waiver, a court would determine whether the waiver was enforceable based on the facts and circumstances of that case in accordance with the applicable state and federal law. To our knowledge, the enforceability of a contractual pre-dispute jury trial waiver in connection with claims arising under the federal securities laws has not been finally adjudicated by a federal court. However, we believe that a contractual pre-dispute jury trial waiver provision is generally enforceable, including under the laws of the State of Nevada, which governs the subscription agreement, in a court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Florida. In determining whether to enforce a contractual pre-dispute jury trial waiver provision, courts will generally consider whether the visibility of the jury trial waiver provision within the agreement is sufficiently prominent such that a party knowingly, intelligently, and voluntarily waived the right to a jury trial. We believe that this is the case with respect to the subscription agreement. You should consult legal counsel regarding the jury waiver provision before entering into the subscription agreement. 

 

If you bring a claim against the Company in connection with matters arising under the subscription agreement, including claims under federal securities laws, you may not be entitled to a jury trial with respect to those claims, which may have the effect of limiting and discouraging lawsuits against the company. If a lawsuit is brought against the company under the subscription agreement, it may be heard only by a judge or justice of the applicable trial court, which would be conducted according to different civil procedures and may result in different outcomes than a trial by jury would have had, including results that could be less favorable to investors in such an action. Nevertheless, if this jury trial waiver provision is not permitted by applicable law, an action could proceed under the terms of the subscription agreement with a jury trial. No condition, stipulation or provision of the subscription agreement serves as a waiver by any holder of common shares or by us of compliance with any provision of the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations promulgated under those laws.

24

 

The Company’s exclusive forum provision in the Subscription Agreement attached as Exhibit 4.1 does not apply to claims arising under the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder, including the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, and there are risks and other potential impacts of this exclusive forum provision to investors in this Offering.

 

The Subscription Agreement for this Offering provides that, unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the state and federal courts located in Broward County, Florida will be the sole and exclusive forum for substantially all disputes between us and subscribers to this Offering, which could limit your ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us or our directors, officers, or employees. This choice of forum provision does not preclude or contract the scope of exclusive federal or concurrent jurisdiction for any actions brought under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act and does not apply to claims arising under the federal securities laws. Accordingly, our exclusive forum provision will not relieve us of our duties to comply with the federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder, and you cannot waive our compliance with these laws, rules, and regulations.

Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in any of our securities pursuant hereto shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to this provision. This exclusive-forum provision may limit your ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum of your choosing for disputes with us or our directors, officers or other employees, which may discourage lawsuits against us and our directors, officers and other employees. If a court were to find the choice of forum provision contained in the Subscription Agreement, to be inapplicable or unenforceable in an action, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving such action in other jurisdictions, which could harm our business, results of operations, and financial condition. Even if we are successful in defending against these claims, litigation could result in substantial costs and be a distraction to management and other employees.

The expected use of net proceeds from this offering represents our intentions based upon our current plans and business conditions, which could change in the future as our plans and business conditions evolve. The amounts and timing of our actual expenditures may vary significantly depending on numerous factors, including negotiations with the other parties in the merge and acquisitions process of the target companies, the amount of cash available from other sources and any unforeseen cash needs. As a result, our management will retain broad discretion over the allocation of the net proceeds from this offering.

DILUTION

 

If you purchase shares in this offering, your ownership interest in our Preferred Stock or as converted common stock will be diluted immediately, to the extent of the difference between the price to the public charged for each share in this offering and its converted value into common shares and the net tangible book value per share of our common stock after this offering.

 

Our historical net tangible book value as of September 30, 2020 was $(4,015,966) or $(0.1893) per then-outstanding shares of our common stock, which does not include common stock “issuable” of 106,558,432 at September 30, 2020. Historical net tangible book value per share equals the amount of our total tangible assets, less total liabilities, divided by the total number of shares of our common stock outstanding, all as of the date specified.

 

The following table illustrates the per share dilution to new investors discussed above, assuming the sale of, respectively, 100%, 75%, 50% and 25% of the Preferred Stock shares offered for sale at $10.00 per share in this offering, equating to its 80% common stock conversion value per Preferred Share (after deducting estimated offering expenses of $150,000):

 

Percentage of shares offered that are sold   100%     75%     50%     25%  
Price to the public charged for each common share conversion from this offering (1)   $ 0.0290     $ 0.0290     $ 0.0290     $ 0.0290  
                                 
Historical net tangible book value per common share as of September 30, 2020 (2)   $ (0.1893 )   $ (0.1893 )   $ (0.1893 )   $ (0.1893 )
                                 
Increase in net tangible book value per common share attributable to new investors in this offering (3)   $ 0.0250     $ 0.0239     $ 0.0219     $ 0.0171  
                                 
Net tangible book value per common share, after this offering   $ 0.0043     $ (0.0028 )   $ (0.0155 )   $ (0.0453 )
                                 
Dilution per common share to new investors   $ (0.0247 )   $ (0.0318 )   $ (0.0445 )   $ (0.0743 )
                                 
Increase to pre-offering shareholders   $ 0.1936     $ 0.1865     $ 0.1738     $ 0.1440  

 

(1) Based on a preferred to common conversion price of $0.0290 (being 80% of $0.036 closing price of FDBL common shares quoted on OTC Markets Group on December 23, 2020).

 

(2) Based on net tangible book value of $(4,015,966) and 21,218,432 outstanding common shares as of September 30, 2020.

 

(3) After deducting estimated offering expenses of $150,000.

  

The Company’s issued and outstanding common stock increased by 45,888,113 shares, from 21,218,432 shares to 67,106,545 shares, between October 1,2020 and January 20,2021, while the Company’s issuable common stock decreased by 7,586,353 shares from 106,558,432 shares at September 30,2020 to 98,972,079 shares at January 20, 2021. A summary of these changes follows:

 

Increase in common shares issued and outstanding:        
         
Common stock issued on the conversion of 124,800 Preferred C stock     28,205,115  
         
Common stock issued as requested drawdowns against the Company’s debt restructuring agreement     7,886,353  
         
Common stock issued on conversion of outstanding principal and interest under certain Convertible Notes     9,796,645  
         
Increase in issued and outstanding common shares     45,888,113

For the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to September 30, 2019

 

Revenues

 

The Company had revenues of $111,392 and $118,801 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 respectively. The decrease was due to the timing of sales under a contract to develop a third-party app.

31

 

Operating Expenses

 

The Company had operating expenses of $801,844 and $319,002 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The increase in operating expenses was due primarily to Artists’ performing fees of $ 425,058 together with other related expenses associated with the live event produced for the launch the Fan Pass app on July 24,2020. This resulted in a higher loss from operations of $690,466 for the three months ended September 30,2020 compared with a loss from operations of $200,201 for the three months ended September 30,2019.

 

Other Income and Expense

 

The Company had other income of $481,894 for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared with other expense of $969,117 for the three months ended September 30, 2019. Other income of $481,894 included gain on settlement of derivative $ 257,317 and gain on change in fair value of derivative $263,000, offset with lower accretion and interest expense of $38,423. Other expense for the three months ended September 30,2019 included provision for settlement of lawsuit $780,000 and higher accretion and interest expense of $ 189,117.

 

Net Loss

 

The Company had net losses of $208,552 and $1,169,318 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 respectively. The decrease in net loss was due primarily to the provision for settlement of lawsuit $780,000 for the three months ended September 30,2019, and gain on settlement of derivative and gain in fair value in derivative of $257,317 and $263,000 in the current period. The higher operating expenses for the three months ended September 30,2020 attributable to the July, 2020 launch of the Fan Pass app were offset by lower accretion and interest expense and by the gain on settlement and change in fair value of derivative.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to September 30, 2019

 

Revenues

 

The Company had revenues of $322,671 and $120,662 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The increase primarily was due to higher revenue derived from the Company’s contract to develop a third-party app.

 

Operating Expenses

 

The Company had operating expenses of $1,747,507 and $805,304 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The increase in operating expenses was due primarily to additional product development, investor relations, artists’ performance and sales and marketing expenses relating to the Company’s live event to launch the Fan Pass app on July 24,2020.

 

Other Income and Expense

 

The Company had other expense of $1,064,951 and $1,233,674 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 respectively. The decrease in other expense was due primarily due to the provision for settlement of lawsuit $780,000 for the nine months ended September 30,2019, offset by initial derivative expense and loss on settlement of derivative, plus a gain for the change in fair value of derivative, for the nine months ended September 30,2020.

 

Net Loss

 

The Company had net losses of $2,489,787 and $1,918,316 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 respectively. The reduction in net loss was due primarily to the reduction of $780,000 in the provision for settlement of lawsuit, lower interest expense and higher revenues, offset by increased operating expenses and increased losses related to the derivatives.

Results of Operations

 

Years Ended December 31, 2019 and 2018

 

Our cash as of December 31, 2019 was $11,282. As a result of our minimal amount of revenues and ongoing expenditures in pursuit of our business, we have incurred net losses since our inception. Our accumulated deficit at December 31, 2019 was $32,443,883. For the year ended December 31, 2019, our net loss was $10,183,410.

 

Our operating revenues and expenses for our fiscal years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 and the changes between those periods for the respective items are summarized as follows:

NET LOSS   $ (10,183,410 )   $ (3,122,004 )

 

Revenues

 

Revenues for the year ended December 31, 2019 increased to $242,696 as compared to $6,190 for the year ended December 31, 2018. The increase in revenue was due to receiving a contract to develop an app for a third party.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2019 and the December 31, 2018 were $1,284,822 and $1,040,978 respectively, an increase of 23%. The increase in operating expenses was due primarily to higher sales and marketing, product development, and investor relations related to preparing to launch the Fan Pass app. App hosting expenses decreased with less support for the old Friendable app.

33

 

Net Loss

 

Our operating results have recognized net loss in the amount of $10,183,410 for the year ended December 31, 2019 as compared to a net loss of $3,122,004 for the year ended December 31, 2018. The increase was primarily related due to higher operating expenses, a loss on extinguishments of debt, and by a provision for settlement of a lawsuit, offset by lower interest expense.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Working Capital

 

Our working capital deficit (being the excess of current liabilities over current assets) at September 30, 2020 totaled $(4,015,966) compared with a working capital deficit at December 31, 2019 of $(15,970,305) and December 31, 2018 of $(10,237,897). The higher deficit at December 31, 2019 related primarily to a derivative liability, which was largely extinguished in 2020. A summary follows:

 

    September 30, 2020     December 31, 2019     December 31, 2018  
Current assets   $ 115,165     $ 71,500     $ 25,646  
Current liabilities     (4,131,131 )     (16,041,805 )     (10,263,543 )
Working capital deficit   $ (4,015,966 )   $ (15,970,305 )   $ (10,237,897 )

 

We currently do not have sufficient capital to fund our needs for the next 12 months. We rely on financing from convertible debt, promissory notes, and sale of stock to fund our operations.

 

Cash Flows

 

Our cash flows for the 9 months ended September 30, 2020, 9 months ended September 30, 2019 and for the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were as follows:

 

    September 30, 2020   September 30, 2019   December 31, 2019   December 31, 2018
Net cash used in Operating Activities   $ (260,931 )   $ (350,935 )   $ (488,864 )   $ (385,319 )
Net cash provided by Financing Activities     258,500       325,368       474,500       410,965  
Net increase (decrease) in Cash   $ (2,431 )     (25,567 )   $ (14,364 )   $ 25,646  
                                 
Cash at end of period   $ 8,851     $ 79     $ 11,282     $ 25,646  

 

Operating Activities

 

Cash used in operating activities

 

The Company used $260,931 and $350,935, respectively, in cash in operating activities for the 9 months ended September 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019 and $488,864 and $385,319 for the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The increase use in 2019 is due to higher product development and general and administrative expense.

 

Cash provided by financing activities

 

Financing activities for the 9 months ended September 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019 generated net cash of $258,500 and $325,368, respectively, as compared to generating net cash of $474,500 and $410,965 for the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The higher cash provided from financing activities in 2019 is attributable to higher proceeds from the sale of convertible preferred Series B, Series C stock. and common stock.

34

 

There was no significant impact on the Company’s operations as a result of inflation in either the 9 months ended September 30, 2020 and 9 months ended September 30, 2019, or for the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

 

Series B and Series C Preferred Stock 

 

Series B Preferred Stock Purchase Agreements

 

On August 8, 2019 the Company filed a Designation of Series B convertible Preferred Stock with the state of Nevada, designating 1,000,000 shares of the Series B Preferred Stock with a stated value of $1.00 per share. A holder of Series B Preferred Stock has the right to convert their Series B Preferred Stock into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock. Initially, the conversion price for the Series B Preferred Stock is $0.25 per share, subject to standard anti-dilution adjustments. Additionally, each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to, as a dividend, a pro rata portion of an amount equal to 10% (Ten Percent) of the Net Revenues (“Net Revenues” being Gross Sales minus Cost of Goods Sold) derived from the subscriptions and other sales, but excluding and net of Vimeo fees, processing fees and up sells, generated by Fan Pass Inc., the wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation. The Series B Dividend shall be calculated and paid on a monthly basis in arrears starting on the day 30 days following the first day of the month following the initial issuance of the Series B Preferred and continuing for a period of 60 (Sixty) months. The holders of Series B Preferred stock shall have no voting rights. The holders of Series B Preferred stock shall not be entitled to receive any dividends. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company or deemed liquidation event, the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid the liquidation amount, as defined out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to its shareholders, after distributions to holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and before distributions to holders of Common Stock.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company entered into subscription agreements with various investors whereby we sold rights to 284,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock for a total purchase price of $284,000 of which $205,000 was received in cash and $79,000 was settled against payables to a related party.

 

Series C Preferred Stock Purchase Agreements

 

On November 25, 2019 the Company filed a Designation of Series C convertible Preferred Stock with the state of Nevada, designating 1,000,000 shares of the Series C Preferred Stock with a stated value of $1.00 per share. The Series C Preferred Stock will, with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, winding-up or dissolution, rank: (a) senior with respect to dividends with the Company’s common stock, par value 0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”)(the Series C Preferred Stock will convert into common stock immediately upon liquidation and be pari passu with the common stock in the event of litigation), and (b) junior with respect to dividends and right of liquidation to all existing and future indebtedness of the Company. The Series C Preferred Stock does not have any voting rights. Each share of Series C Preferred Stock will carry an annual dividend in the amount of eight percent (8%) of the Stated Value of $1.00 (the “Divided Rate”), which shall be cumulative and compounded daily, payable solely upon redemption, liquidation or conversion and increase to 22% upon an event of default as defined. In the event of any default other than the Company’s failure to issue shares upon conversion, the stated price will be $1.50. In a default event where the Company fails to issue shares upon conversion, the stated price will $2.00. The holder shall have the right six months following the issuance date, to convert all or any part of the outstanding Series C Preferred Stock into shares of common stock of the Company. The conversion price shall equal the Variable Conversion Price. The “Variable Conversion Price” shall mean 71% multiplied by the market price, representing a discount rate of 29%. Market price means the average of the two lowest trading prices for the Company’s common stock during the twenty trading day period ending on the latest complete trading day prior to the conversion date. Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, or upon any deemed liquidation event, after payment or provision for payment of debts and other liabilities of the Company, and after payment or provision for any liquidation preference payable to the holders of any Preferred Stock ranking senior upon liquidation to the Series C Preferred Stock, if any, but prior to any distribution or payment made to the holders of Common Stock or the holders of any Preferred Stock ranking junior upon liquidation to the Series C Preferred Stock by reason of their ownership thereof, the Holders will be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to its stockholders. The Company will have the right, at the Company’s option, to redeem all or any portion of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock, exercisable on not more than three trading days prior written notice to the Holders, in full, in accordance with Section 6 of the designations at a premium of up to 35% for up to six months. Company’s mandatory redemption: On the earlier to occur of (i) the date which is twenty-four (24) months following the Issuance Date and (ii) the occurrence of an Event of Default (the “Mandatory Redemption Date”), the Company shall redeem all of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock of the Holders (which have not been previously redeemed or converted).

35

 

During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company entered into subscription agreements with Geneva Roth Remark Holdings, Inc. whereby we sold 149,300 shares of Series C Preferred Stock for a total purchase price of $136,000. At September 30, 2020, due to conversions exercised in 2020, the outstanding balance of Series C Preferred Stock was reduced to 124,800 shares, with a cumulative liquidation value of $208,867.

 

Debt Restructure Agreement

 

On March 26, 2019 three officers forgave debt totaling $400,000 and a company controlled by two officers of the Company forgave debt totaling $600,000. The debt forgiveness is considered a capital transaction and therefore $1,000,000 was recorded as an increase in additional paid-in capital in the 12 months ended December 31, 2019.

 

On March 26, 2019, the Company entered into a Debt Restructuring Agreement with related parties Robert A. Rositano Jr., Dean Rositano, Frank Garcia (former affiliate), and Checkmate Mobile, Inc. and Alpha Capital Anstalt, Coventry Enterprises, LLC, Palladium Capital Advisors, LLC, EMA Financial, LLC, Michael Finkelstein, and Barbara R. Mittman, each being a debt holder of the Company. Subsequent to March 26, 2019, Alpha sold all of its convertible debenture to Ellis International LP (“Ellis”).

 

The debt holders have agreed to convert their debt into certain amounts of common stock as set forth in the Agreement upon the Company meeting certain milestones including but not limited to: the Company effecting a reverse stock split and maintaining a stock price of $1.00 per share; being current with its periodic report filings pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act; Checkmate Mobile Inc and Company officers forgiving an aggregate of $1,000,000 in amounts owed to them; the Company raising not less than $400,000 in common stock at a post-split price of not less than $0.20 per share; and certain other things as further set forth in the Agreement. The debt holders were subject to certain lock up and leak out provisions as contained in the Agreement.

 

December 26, 2019, all parties signed an amendment to the Agreement which set forth, among other things, the following: Company Principals have given Holders notice that it has satisfied all conditions of closing.

 

The Agreement is considered Closed as of November 5, 2019 (“Settlement Date”) and any conditions of closing not satisfied are waived.

 

Reset Dates. The “Reset Dates” as set forth in Section 1(h) of the Agreement are as follows: March 4, 2020 and July 2, 2020. As of the reset dates the holders can convert all or part of the settled note amounts at the lower of (i) 75% of the closing bid price for the Common Stock on such respective Reset Date, or (ii) the VWAP for the Company’s Common Stock for the 7 trading days immediately preceding and including such respective Reset Dates. This reset provision provides for the issuance of additional shares above the initial 5,902,589 shares for no additional consideration as measured at each of the two reset dates.

 

On March 4, 2020 the Company became obligated issue an additional 36,193,098 shares of common stock and on July 2, 2020 it became obligated to issue an additional 63,275,243 shares for a total amount of shares due of 105,370,930.

 

The Company determined that the reset provision represented a standalone derivative liability. Accordingly, this debt restructure transaction was accounted for in 2019 as an extinguishment of debt for consideration equal to the $2,384,646 fair value of the 5,902,589 common shares issuable, based on the $0.404 quoted trading price of the Company’s common stock price on the settlement date, and the initial fair value of the derivative liability of $12,653,000 resulting in a loss on debt extinguishment of $6,954,920.

36

 

The Company adjusted this derivative liability to fair value at each reporting and settlement date, with changes in fair value reported in the statement of operations. The Company estimated the fair value of the obligations to issue common stock pursuant to the Debt Restructuring Agreement, as amended, using Monte Carlo simulations and the following assumptions:

 

    November 5,     December     June  
    2019     31, 2019     30, 2020  
Volatility     617 %     738.1 %     293.6 %
Risk Free Rate     1.59 %     1.6 %     .13 %
Expected Term     0.66       0.5       0.01  
                         

Because the second (and final) reset date of July 2, 2020 determined that the total common shares issuable to fully settle this debt amounted to 105,370,930 a derivative liability no longer exists and the Company recognized a final gain on settlement on July 2, 2020 of $257,316.

 

On September 21, 2020, Ellis International LP (as successor to Alpha Capital Anstalt) submitted a request to drawdown and, on September 29, 2020, was issued 687,355 common shares against its entitlement above and reclassified from issuable shares in the accompanying balance sheet and statement of changes in stockholder equity.

The derivative fair value of the above at September 30, 2020 is $209,000.

 

Going Concern

 

At September 30, 2020, we had a working capital deficiency, an accumulated deficit, and a stockholder’s deficit of $4,015,966, $34,933,670 and $4,015,966 respectively and incurred a net loss and cash used in operations of $2,489,787 and $260,931 respectively for the 9 months ended September 30, 2020 and $10,183,410 and $488,864 respectively for the 12 months ended December 31, 2019. We have generated a modest level of revenues and have incurred losses since inception. Accordingly, we will be dependent on future additional financing in order to seek other business opportunities in the online entertainment industry or new business opportunities. We are considered a development stage company in the online entertainment/social media industry. As of September 30, 2020, there is no assurance that we will be able raise sufficient capital to sustain our operations. We expect to incur further losses in the development of our business, all of which casts substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet our obligations and repay our liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of these statements in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses in the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to valuation of convertible debenture conversion options, derivative instruments, deferred income tax asset valuations, financial instrument valuations, share-based payments, other equity-based payments, and loss contingencies. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

In accordance with ASC 606, revenue is recognized when the following criteria have been met; valid contracts are identified with specific customers, performance obligations have been identified, price is determinable, price is allocated to performance obligations, and the Company has satisfied the performance obligations. Revenue generally is recognized net of allowances for returns and any taxes collected from customers and subsequently remitted to governmental authorities. During both the 9 months ended September 30, 2020 and the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company derived revenues primarily from the development of apps for a third party, and such revenues were recognized upon completion of services.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

We continually monitor events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances are present, we assess the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows.

 

If the total of the future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of those assets, we recognize an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.

 

Stock-based compensation

 

We record stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Based Compensation, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense based on estimated fair values for all share-based awards made to employees and directors, including stock options. In 2019 the Company adapted ASU 2018-17 which expands the measurement requirements to non-employees.

 

ASC 718 requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model as its method in determining fair value. This model is affected by our stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of subjective variables. These subjective variables include but are not limited to our expected stock price volatility over the terms of the awards, and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense in the statement of operations over the requisite service period.

 

On January 11, 2021, the Board of Directors adopted a new NonQualified Stock Option Award Plan for the Company’s full time employees. Stock Options were granted totaling 15 million common shares, 10 million of which vest quarterly expiring January 11, 2024 and 5 million of which vest quarterly expiring January 11, 2023. Applying the Black-Scholes option pricing model, these options were valued at $194,700 which will be amortized as an operating expense over their respective vesting periods.

Financial Instruments

 

FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles and enhances disclosures about fair value measurements. 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. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value, as required by ASC 820, must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

 

Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurements requires judgment and may affect the valuation of the assets and liabilities being measured and their placement within the fair value hierarchy. The carrying values of accounts payable, convertible debentures and promissory note approximate fair values because of the short-term maturity of these instruments. Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that we are not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.

 

Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share

 

We compute net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

We have implemented all other new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have any off -balance sheet arrangements.

Business Overview

 

Friendable, Inc. is a mobile-focused technology and marketing company, connecting and engaging users through two distinctly branded applications.

 

The Friendable and Fan Pass Mobile Applications.

 

The Company initially released its flagship product Friendable, as a social application where users can create one-on-one or group-style meetups. In 2019 the Company has moved the Friendable app closer to a traditional dating application with its focus on building revenue, as well as reintroducing the brand as a non-threatening, all-inclusive place where “Everything starts with Friendship” meet, chat & date.

 

Fan Pass is the Company’s most recent or second app/brand and was launched on July 24, 2020. Fan Pass believes in connecting Fans of their favorite celebrity or artist, to an exclusive VIP or Backstage experience, right from their smartphone or other connected devices. Fan Pass allows an artist’s fanbase to experience something they would otherwise never have the opportunity to afford or geographically attend. The Company aims to establish both Friendable and Fan Pass as premier brands and mobile platforms that are dedicated to connecting and engaging users from anywhere around the World.

 

Friendable, Inc. was founded by Robert A. Rositano Jr. and Dean Rositano, two brothers with over 27 years of working together on technology-related ventures.

 

Highlights

 

The Fan Pass launch event, which was held on July 24, 2020. The event exceeded the Company’s expectations. The Fan Pass platform provided a virtual stage and hosted live stream performances that were headlined by some of the music industry’s most talented artists ranging from Grammy award winning producers to international DJs and even rising hip hop stars. The Fan Pass team successfully launched the showcasing of the platform’s high-quality streaming capabilities, along with other unique aspects of the Company’s business model, including the turn-key service of providing every artist an exclusive Fan Pass channel, custom merchandise, store front, Go Live Streaming and monetization tools, Instagram & social ad creatives, and adding additional revenue opportunities for both the artists and the Company.

 

For the launch event Fan Pass secured over 10 hours of exclusive content, on-boarded 16 prominent artists; produced 16+ live content channels, with custom merchandise and live merchandise stores; created social media ads and promotional materials for the artists; solidified relationships with artists and artist management; increased social media followers, content and activity and a radio interview with iHeart Radio. Live events were streamed from approximately 1:30 pm EST until roughly 11:00 pm EST on Friday July 24, 2020 from four separate locations that included: an Atlanta, GA Stage; a New York, NY Penthouse; a Los Angeles, CA Studio; and, a private venue located in Palm Beach, FL. The event attracted die-hard music fans and social followers from across the globe, representing more than 72 countries.

On August 27, 2020 the Company announced that since the Fan Pass launch event on July 24, 2020, Fan Pass has received an additional 34 Artist Sign-ups, validating the Company’s business model. The Company works with each new artist to move them through the various onboarding stages required to build them their personalized Artist Channel on Fan Pass. Once completed, our agents hand over the controls to each Artist so they can begin scheduling events through the Company’s live event calendar, promoting their events with the custom marketing materials the Fan Pass team designs, and most importantly, so they can start streaming and earning a revenue share on the Fan Pass platform.

 

On September 3, 2020 the Company announced that its new artist sign-ups continued to increase, indicating a strong demand for the Fan Pass platform and services. Fan Pass had received an additional 26 artist sign-ups with demand continuing to grow. The Company’s next steps include focusing on the onboarding of each artist, bringing channels live, and delivering promotional materials designed to convert artist fans and followers to monthly subscribers/content views, event ticket sales, and general e-commerce that generates revenue through merchandise sales and special offerings.

 

On September 15, 2020 the Company announced its new Fan Pass feature, allowing artists to perform a live event or stream content right from their smart phone or mobile device, anywhere, any time.

 

History

 

Friendable, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), was incorporated in the State of Nevada on June 5, 2007. On June 15, 2011, the Company changed its name to Titan Iron Ore Corp, through a merger with a wholly owned subsidiary. On February 3, 2014, the Company merged with IHookup, created a new subsidiary called iHookup Operations Corp, a Delaware corporation, and then merged the Company with and into IHookup, causing the subsidiary’s separate existence to cease and IHookup to become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. On October 27, 2015, the Company’s trading symbol was changed from “HKUP” to “FDBL”. This change was made in conjunction with the Company’s filing of a Certificate of Amendment on September 28, 2015 to its Articles of Incorporation changing the name of the Company from “iHookup Social, Inc.” to “Friendable, Inc.” The Company had previously announced a re-branding our app from “iHookup Social” to “Friendable”. As a result, the Company desired to change its name to match the rebranding so as to be more recognizable and create less confusion.

 

On June 28, 2017, the Company formed a wholly owned Nevada subsidiary called Fan Pass Inc. Fan Pass is the Company’s most recent or second app/brand, completed and released in July 2020. Fan Pass believes in connecting Fans of their favorite celebrity or artist, to an exclusive VIP or Backstage experience, right from their smartphone or other connected devices. Fan Pass allows an artist’s fanbase to experience something they would otherwise never have the opportunity to afford or geographically attend. The Company aims to establish both Friendable and Fan Pass as premier brands and mobile platforms that are dedicated to connecting and engaging users from anywhere around the World.

 

On August 8, 2019, the Company filed a Designation of Series B convertible Preferred Stock with the state of Nevada, designating 1,000,000 shares of the Series B Preferred Stock with a stated value of $1.00 per share.

On November 25, 2019 the Company filed a Designation of Series C convertible Preferred Stock with the state of Nevada, designating 1,000,000 shares of the Series C Preferred Stock with a stated value of $1.00 per share. The Series C Preferred Stock will, with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, winding-up or dissolution, rank: (a) senior with respect to dividends with the Company’s common stock, par value 0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”)(the Series C Preferred Stock will convert into common stock immediately upon liquidation and be pari passu with the common stock in the event of litigation), and (b) junior with respect to dividends and right of liquidation to all existing and future indebtedness of the Company.

Fan Pass provides direct benefits to Artists and Entertainers in some of the following ways. Artists & Entertainers simply need to request a Fan Pass “Channel” Download and Register for Details.

Market

 

The market in which Friendable, Inc. operates can be described as follows.

 

Market Opportunity

 

Artists rely heavily on revenue streams that are not often seen to those without intimate knowledge of a particular industry and with the focus currently on virtual performances, there will be a re-entry for these same artists, back to the traditional stage while maintaining the virtual streams. When it comes to traditional performances, the sale of a VIP/backstage or meet & greet pass to boost revenue can often become the majority of the artist’s annual tour revenue. With data provided from one of the Friendable’s original entertainment partners “The Kluger Agency” (“TKA”) suggesting that as much as 18%-23% of artists’ annual tour revenue has previously been derived from these VIP experiences. This is particularly true in the year 2020, with The World Economic Forum reporting that the six-month-plus disappearance of live music concerts “is estimated to cost the industry more than $10 billion in sponsorships,” and individual artists are feeling the loss the most.

 

Fan Pass

 

Fan Pass, one of Friendable’s applications, bridges the gap, providing more affordable virtual VIP experiences that can be offered simultaneously to fans around the world. While Fan Pass is free for artists to join, Fan Pass leverages a monthly subscription model paid by fans to generate revenues. These revenues are shared with all channel artists. In exchange for its platform features, live streaming tools, bandwidth, processing and handling, Fan Pass earns platform fees on each separately ticketed event, as well as splits with each artist on subscriber fees and merchandise designed and sold on the platform.

 

The U.S. video streaming industry is expected to hit $7.08 billion in value in 2021, with an estimated 100 million internet users watching online video content every day, according to data from Livestream.com. The same report suggests that 45% of live video audiences would pay for exclusive, on-demand video from a favorite team, speaker or performer. Through Fan Pass, Friendable Inc. is uniquely positioned to capitalize on this opportunity.

 

The Friendable App

 

Our Company’s second application, Friendable, is an all-inclusive platform where users can meet, chat and date. The app has exceeded 1.5 million total downloads, with over 900,000 historical registered users and more than 580,000 historical user profiles.

 

Friendable Inc.’s Next Phase of Growth

 

To facilitate its next phase of growth, Friendable Inc. is seeking an additional equity investment of up to $5 million. The company intends to utilize its relationships to secure the lowest cost of capital available as these funds will drive technology advancements, increase head count, marketing initiatives and secure additional celebrity talent that will bring larger fan audiences to each released event. These initiatives will assist in building recurring monthly (fan) subscribers that generate recurring monthly revenue for each artist as well. The next phase of growth is expected to play a key role in accelerating the company’s download and conversion of data for subscription revenue and merchandise sales.

 

Our Company’s primary goal is to establish Fan Pass as a premier brand and mobile platform dedicated to connecting and engaging users around the world. In support of this goal, it has entered into a partnership with Brightcove targeting OTT platform expansion, including leaders such as iOS, Android, Apple TV, Android TV, Roku and WWW.

43

 

In the highly competitive video streaming market, Friendable Inc. has tapped into an unmet demand from today’s ever-present “omni-users” for constant contact with celebrities and influencers. Via Fan Pass, the company offers investors an opportunity to gain a stake in an organization catering to this new breed of omni-users and their influencers. We believe that this application’s potential is clearly illustrated by the interest it has generated. For example, from September 4 to October 12, 2020 the Fan Pass platform added 246 new artists, accounting for a 410 percent increase in just six weeks.

 

Competition Product Differentiation

 

Based on the Company’s internal analysis, market related and industry specific news/growth projections, management believes there are approximately 10 companies currently in this streaming marketplace with similar goals of live streaming concerts or events. The Company has identified what it believes is its closest competitors currently and listed them below with additional information of how the offerings compare with one another and how Fan Pass has differentiated its offering to artists at all stages of their careers. Nonetheless, we believe we have several competitive advantages along with discovering a service-related niche that is being highly regarded by our artists. Fan Pass has no direct or service by service offering competitors. There are companies that offer services similar to Fan Pass in different mediums and with different content, for example Only Fans, IG Live, Sessions, Stage It and Twitch. Nonetheless, the Company believes it is differentiated in its offerings from these other companies and has a competitive advantage. The Company believes it has a superior and differentiated offering to all Artists and Entertainers seeking a “Virtual Stage” for performance and revenue. In addition to the streaming services offered by others, Fan Pass has a focused approach to engage, support and grow each artists’ revenue and fan following. The table below describe more about the Fan Pass offering vs. that of others, along with reference to a quote from a third-party article that articulates the Company’s position vis a vis its competitors.

The World Economic Forum released this past May staggering figures relating to how Covid-19 (the “pandemic”) has affected the music industry. The report states with the disappearance of live music concerts and no end in-sight that the “six-month shutdown is estimated to cost the industry more than $10 bn in sponsorships,” and individual artists are feeling the loss the most. With the ban on large gatherings, small and large venues have shut their doors, and artists are finding themselves deprived of their primary source of revenues, live gigs. Live shows account for 75% of artists’ income and are directly tied to the release of new music. Rolling Stones magazine reported that a growing list of artists is delaying new releases to later in the year. Well-known artists from megastars Alicia Keys and Lady Gaga to upcoming groups Haim and Hind, R&B singers such Toni Braxton, Kehlani to veterans rockers The Pretenders, and country music legend Willie Nelson, have all decided to delay the release of their latest albums. Touring is the number one promotional tool for a new album launch and is also an excellent marketplace for merchandising and connecting with fans. Many artists are taking the position that without the ability to tour, it’s best to wait.

 

In response to the growing pressure on the music industry to mitigate the damages done by the global pandemic, technology is coming to the rescue and harnessing the power of live video streaming. Indeed our Company, Fan Pass, is a Live Streaming mobile app and desktop platform is offering solutions to artists with dwindling sources of revenue at this time and giving them control over their career. In particular response to the pandemic, we have released Fan Pass Live, a live video streaming platform with an “artist first” approach to developing an eco-system where artists now have their very own channel, in a particular genre or category and a central location where exclusive content lives. On this platform, Fan Pass continues to provide many services to artists and entertainers, their work, creates custom merchandise for each channel artist and gives them the controls to schedule a live event or event chat, at a moments’ notice, all providing new revenue opportunities for all Fan Pass artists. The platform aims to give artists back a voice, while providing a one-of-a-kind experience for their fans, along with opening up new ways of earning from the virtual stage. The brainchild of brothers and business partners Robert A. Rositano, Jr. and Dean Rositano, Fan Pass Live, officially launched its platform with a live concert on July 24, 2020.

 

To demonstrate the strength of Fan Pass, for example, Fan Pass had live streaming events from approximately 1:30 pm EST until roughly 11:00 pm EST on Friday July 24, 2020 from four separate locations that included: an Atlanta, GA Stage; New York, NY Penthouse; Los Angeles, CA Studio; and, a private venue located in Palm Beach, FL. The event attracted die-hard music fans and social followers from across the globe in the following locations: the United States, Germany, Canada, India, United Republic of Tanzania, United Arab Emirates, Ghana, Netherlands, New Zealand, Finland, Tunisia, United Kingdom, Brazil, Kenya, Japan, Guatemala, Nigeria, Australia, South Africa, Dominican Republic, Ukraine, Turkey, Sweden, Italy, Poland, France, Rwanda, Haiti, Switzerland, Mexico, Portugal, Spain, Belgium, Uganda, Iraq, Indonesia, Jamaica, Senegal, Norway, Malaysia, Virgin Islands, Bulgaria, Dominica, Greece, Guadeloupe, Saudi Arabia, Honduras, Qatar, Ireland, Hong Kong, Denmark, Mongolia, Kuwait, Guyana, Lebanon, Chile, Jordan, Taiwan, Zimbabwe, Cameroon, Estonia, Colombia, Egypt, Iceland, China, Vietnam, Austria, Peru, Israel, Philippines, Bahamas, Fiji, Puerto Rico, and Costa Rica.

 

According to the expectations set by management, this event outperformed the goals set for Fan Pass, achieving much more than it could have anticipated. Fan Pass was able to secure over 10 hours of Exclusive Content, on-board 16 prominent artists; produce 16+ live content channels, custom merchandise and live merchandise stores; create social media ads and promotional materials for 16+ artists; solidify relationships with artists and artist management; increase social media followers, content and activity by 500%; gain recognition from other Industry Labels; increase press coverage landing a radio interview with iHeart Radio; and, create more sponsorship opportunities.

Robert A. Rositano, Jr, CEO of the Company said to BitRebel, “When we initially developed Fan Pass Live, we were aiming to Live Stream the “Backstage VIP Experience” or “meet and greet” of a concert event and make accessible this once in a lifetime experience to all fans worldwide. With the global pandemic disrupting the industry and changing the industry’s needs, we were determined to re-position our offering to also provide a solution to those who are used to earning a living on the physical stages across the country.”

 

What does precisely Fan Pass Live do? For starters, it breaks down the barrier between artists and fans, giving the artists control over setting a date, setting a price (or offering viewings and access to Fan Pass monthly subscribers for free) and broadcasting their events, concerts or chats, right from their phone or a complete computer, microphone and streaming set up. The Fan Pass team also creates Instagram ads and promotion for each channel artist, allowing them to focus on what they enjoy and announcing to fans with professionally designed ads to promote when ready. More importantly, it gives back to artists a way to remain relevant to their fan base and earn revenue.

 

Fan Pass Live Shares Revenues with Artists

 

Fan Pass Live offers Artists at all levels and genres, the opportunity to engage fans from one location, removing the need for multiple sharing platforms. It conveniently provides an Exclusive Artist “Channels” jam-packed with all their relevant content from videos, photos, interviews, and past and upcoming events. While Fan Pass charges the fans a small transaction fee for ticket sales, artists keep the money earned from ticket sales. The handling of the merchandise is also taken care of by the Company and once it’s approved by the Artist, all merchandise is released within the Artist’s channel.

 

While it is free for Artists to join, Fan Pass aims to monetize by offering fans an “ALL ACCESS VIP” offering priced at $3.99 as a monthly subscription model paid by fans through Fan Pass’ website or through a similar offering to fans at $4.99 per month if processed by the Apple App Store or Google Play Stores, with a three-day free trial. Revenues are shared with all Channel Artists. In exchange for its platform features, live streaming tools, bandwidth, processing, and handling, Fan Pass will also earn platform fees on each separately ticketed event, as well as splits with each Artist on subscriber fees and merchandise designed and sold on the platform.

 

Marketing

 

The Company’s marketing efforts will consist of a combination of various public relations, social media and traditional media outlets. Digital media (Facebook, Google, Instagram, Twitch and others), executive team pod casts and speaking engagements will also round out online advertising designed to attract artists to the platform. In addition to the Company’s overarching promotion of its Fan Pass brand and offering each artist is required to perform additional promotion to attract their fans specifically. The Company believes it will convert a certain number of these fans to monthly subscribers, others will purchase tickets for PPV events (performed by artists) and/or exclusive merchandise being offered and sold will also attract fan purchases. The platform is not authorized to, and will not, make any commitments on behalf of an Artist for personal appearances or other promotional activities related to any Live Performance or event planned on the Fan Pass platform, until such Artist has committed to platform and Fan Pass has engaged in design and productions of fan-based offerings for such planned event. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such Artist will be offered creative options for at least one Instagram story and shall actively promote their artist “Channel” on the Fan Pass platform, along with an upcoming or previous event. Artist deliverables include promotions to be delivered across the Artist’s existing social media platforms to solicit downloads of the Fan Pass mobile application and therefor allow fans to choose a subscription option or not. Artists will assist and use their best efforts to engage with fans, broadcast promotional messages and announce live events scheduled, pre-recorded and available and upcoming.

 

Friendable, Inc. is a publicly traded company on the OTC Marketplace with a set of product and service offerings that have, on occasion been complimentary offerings to one another but most often stand alone as product and service offerings of the Friendable brand and/or public company.

46

 

Friendable, Inc. has a meet up/dating application that is available for download in the Apple app store and Google play stores and had been the foundation of the Company’s first mobile app offering. Additionally, Friendable, Inc. has a “Technology Services” division whereby our services can be hired for app consulting and related design, development and deployment services. Finally, we have our Wholly owned subsidiary Fan Pass, Inc. which has been born out of various celebrity relationships achieved through the strategic marketing efforts of the Friendable dating app and has become the focus of the Company’s future growth path and ROI for investors. Currently, the Company has substantial client concentration, with one client accounting for a substantial portion of our revenues.

 

In the 9 months ended September 30, 2020 and in the 12 months ended December 31, 2019 we derived 99% of our revenue from one client. There are inherent risks whenever a large percentage of total revenues are concentrated with a limited number of clients. It is not possible for us to predict the future level of demand for our services that will be generated by this client or the future demand for the products and services of other similar clients. A loss of this client or the failure to retain similar clients could negatively affect our revenues and results of operations and/or trading price of our common stock.

 

Material Agreements

 

As mentioned above, in the 12 months ended December 31, 2019 and 9 months ended September 30, 2020, the Company derived the majority of its revenue from its relationship with Answering Legal, a company with which Friendable is party to a “Technology Services Agreement” that provides for statements of work or SOWs through various stages of development of 2 mobile and 1 desktop application. These applications were to function on iOS and Android devices as well as website/browser, focused on providing an extension of the “Answering Legal” call center/answering services provided to their “Legal/Attorney” based clients. The fluid nature of app/tech development projects provided for various iterations of the interface, specifications and created various changes and/or additions or changes that added to the Friendable development timelines, fees and overall scope, which ultimately created an extended development cycle and supplemented the Company’s ability to focus on the development of its Friendable mobile dating application and further its release of Fan Pass, it’s live streaming artist platform and core business focus. A copy of the Technology Series Agreement is attached as an exhibit to this Offering Circular.

Legal Proceedings

 

Integrity Media, Inc. (“Integrity”) had previously filed a lawsuit against the Company and the CEO of the Company for $500,000 alleging breach of contract alleging the Company failed to deliver marketable securities in exchange for services. The Company answered the allegations in court and Integrity filed a motion attacking the Company’s answers. The court did not strike the answers, but the clerk of the court entered a default judgment against the Company in the amount of $1,192,875 plus 10% interest. On May 8, 2019, the Company received a tentative ruling on the Company’s motion to vacate the default judgement whereby the previously entered default judgement was voided and a trial date of August 26, 2019 was set.

 

On September 19, 2019, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement with Integrity Media settling the civil action known as Integrity Media, Inc. vs. Friendable, Inc. et al., Orange County Case No. 30-2016-00867956-CU-CO-CJC. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Company agreed to issue to Integrity 750,000 shares of its common stock in exchange for 275 of the Company’s preferred shares held by Integrity and the cash payment of $30,000 for costs. Robert Rositano Jr., the Company’s CEO, has also personally guaranteed the Company’s compliance with the terms of the Settlement Agreement. The cash payment is to be made within 6 months of the date of the Settlement Agreement. As of the date of filing of this report the cash amount has not been paid and the preferred shares have not been returned. Additionally, Integrity will be entitled to additional shares if (i) the price of the Company’s common stock is below $1.34 at either the 120 day or 240 day reset dates set forth in the Company’s Debt Restructure Agreement as amended entered into with various debt holders on March 26, 2019 effective November 5, 2019. The Company has determined that a total of 4,275,000 additional shares would be issuable on the first “reset” date of March 4, 2020 based on a share price of $0.20 on that date and a total of 7,537,500 additional shares would be issuable on the second “reset” date of July 2, 2020 based on a shares price of $0.08 on that date for a total of 12,562,500 shares. Integrity will also be entitled to a “true-up” by issuance of additional common shares on the issuance date should the share price of the Company’s common stock on the issuance date be below $1. It was determined by the Company that its liability was $1,005,000 ($750,000 plus a premium of $255,000) in accordance with ASC 480.

 

On August 28, 2020 Integrity requested and was issued 750,000 common shares, which Integrity advised the Company realized $16,625 when sold. Accordingly, at September 30, 2020 the Company reduced its liability payable in common stock from $1,005,000 to $988,375 and retained $30,000 as an accrued liability for costs.

 

On October 14, 2020, the Company filed a “Declaration” with the Santa Clara County Courts challenging Integrity’s future ability to convert additional shares based on “Stock Market Manipulation” designed to harm the Company’s share price, valuation and number of shares issuable to Integrity following its sales. Additionally, the Company contended that Integrity disregarded the volume limitation set forth in its settlement for the Company’s thinly traded securities and caused a potential third party capital investment of $150,000 to be rescinded. The court agreed with the Company’s declaration that Integrity should have filed a motion so the Company would have the opportunity to present all arguments and evidence in opposition to deny Integrity’s application to enter judgment.

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

 

During the past ten years, our directors and executive officers above have not been involved in any of the following events:

 

 

a bankruptcy petition filed by or against any business of which such person was a general partner or executive officer either at the time of the bankruptcy or within two years prior to that time;

 

 

conviction in a criminal proceeding or being subject to a pending criminal proceeding, excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses;

 

 

being subject to any order, judgment or decree, not substantially reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently enjoining, barring, suspending or otherwise limiting his involvement in any type of business, securities or banking business;

 

 

being found by a court of competent jurisdiction, in a civil action, the SEC or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated a federal or state securities or commodities law, and the judgment has not been reversed, suspended or vacated;

 

 

being the subject of, or a party to, any federal or state judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, or finding, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, relating to an alleged violation of: (i) any federal or state securities or commodities law or regulation; or (ii) any law or regulation respecting financial institutions or insurance companies including, but not limited to, a temporary or permanent injunction, order of disgorgement or restitution, civil money penalty or temporary or permanent cease-and-desist order, or removal or prohibition order; or (iii) any law or regulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud or fraud in connection with any business entity; or

 

 

being the subject of, or a party to, any sanction or order, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any self-regulatory organization (as defined in Section 3(a)(26) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934), any registered entity (as defined in Section 1(a)(29) of the Commodity Exchange Act), or any equivalent exchange, association, entity or organization that has disciplinary authority over its members or persons associated with a member.

 

Committees of the Board

 

Our board of directors has the authority to appoint committees to perform certain management and administration functions. Currently, we do not have an audit committee, compensation committee or nominating and corporate governance committee and do not have an audit committee financial expert. Our board of directors currently intends to appoint various committees in the future.

 

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

 

We do not have a nominating and corporate governance committee. Our board of directors performed the functions associated with a nominating committee. Generally, nominees for directors are identified and suggested by the members of our board of directors or management using their business networks. Our board of directors has not retained any executive search firms or other third parties to identify or evaluate director candidates in the past and does not intend to in the near future. We have elected not to have a nominating committee because we are an exploration stage company with limited operations and resources.

 

Our board of directors does not have a written policy or charter regarding how director candidates are evaluated or nominated for our board of directors. Additionally, our board of directors has not created particular qualifications or minimum standards that candidates for our board of directors must meet. Instead, our board of directors considers how a candidate could contribute to our business and meet our needs and those of our board of directors. As we are an exploration stage company, our board of directors will not consider candidates for director recommended by our stockholders, and we have received no such candidate recommendations from our stockholders.

50

 

Compensation Committee

 

We currently do not have a compensation committee. However, our board of directors may establish a compensation committee once we are no longer in the exploration stage, which would consist of inside directors and independent members. Until a formal committee is established, our board of directors will continue to review all forms of compensation provided to our executive officers, directors, consultants and employees including stock compensation.

 

Audit Committee

 

We currently do not have an audit committee. However, our board of directors may establish an audit committee once we are no longer in the exploration stage, which would consist of inside directors and independent members.

 

Until a formal committee is established, our board of directors will continue to perform the functions of an audit committee.

 

Audit Committee Financial Expert

 

Our board of directors has determined that it does not have a member that qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K issued by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

We believe that our entire board of directors is capable of analyzing and evaluating financial statements that present a breadth and level of complexity of accounting issues that are generally comparable to the breadth and complexity of the issues reasonably expected to be raised by our company. We believe that retaining an independent director who would qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” would be overly costly and burdensome and is not warranted in our circumstances given the early stages of our development and the fact that we have not generated revenues to date.

 

Code of Ethics

 

We have not yet adopted a Code of Ethics.

Long-Term Incentive Plans

 

On November 22, 2011, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a stock option plan (“2011 Stock Option Plan”), the purpose of which is to enhance the Company’s stockholder value and financial performance by attracting, retaining and motivating the Company’s officers, directors, key employees, consultants and its affiliates and to encourage stock ownership by such individuals by providing them with a means to acquire a proprietary interest in the Company’s success through stock ownership. Under the 2011 Stock Option Plan, officers, directors, employees and consultants who provide services to the Company may be granted options to acquire common shares of the Company. The aggregate number of options authorized by the plan shall not exceed 4,974 shares of common stock of the Company.

 

The Board of Directors and the stockholders holding a majority of the voting power approved a 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”) on February 28, 2014, with a to be determined effective date. The date never became effective. The purpose of the 2014 Plan is to assist the Company and its affiliates in attracting, retaining and providing incentives to employees, directors, consultants and independent contractors who serve the Company and its affiliates by offering them the opportunity to acquire or increase their proprietary interest in the Company and to promote the identification of their interests with those of the stockholders of the Company. The 2014 Plan will also be used to make grants to further reward and incentivize current employees and others.

 

There are 7 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2014 Plan. The Board has the power and authority to make grants of stock options to employees, directors, consultants and independent contractors who serve the Company and its affiliates. Any stock options granted under the 2014 Plan generally have an exercise price equal to or greater than the fair market value of the Company’s shares of common stock.

In addition, any portion of the award that remains unexercised at the expiration of the applicable exercisable period is likewise terminated. Any exercise of any portion of the aware requires the grantee to provide written notice of such exercise accompanied by payment of the applicable exercise price.

PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDERS

 

The number of shares beneficially owned is determined under the rules promulgated by the SEC, and the information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under those rules, beneficial ownership includes any shares as to which a person or entity has sole or shared voting power or investment power plus any shares which such person or entity has the right to acquire within sixty (60) days through the exercise or conversion of any stock option, convertible security, warrant or other right. Unless otherwise indicated, each person or entity named in the table has sole voting power and investment power (or shares such power with that person’s spouse) with respect to all shares of capital stock listed as owned by that person or entity.

 

Each share of common stock entitles its holder to one vote on each matter submitted to the stockholders. The holders of Series A preferred stock are entitled to cast votes equal to the number of whole shares of common stock into which the shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder are convertible. The total aggregate issued shares of Series A Preferred Stock at any given time regardless of their number shall be convertible into the number of shares of common stock which equals nine (9) times the total number of shares of common stock which are issued and outstanding at the time of any conversion, at the option of the preferred holders or until the closing of a Qualified Financing (i.e. the sale and issuance of our equity securities that results in gross proceeds in excess of $2,500,000) at one time or in the same round. As a result of the Titan Iron Ore Corp. and iHookup merger transaction, the former iHookup stockholders received a controlling interest in the Company due to the voting rights of the Series A Preferred Stock being connected to their super-majority conversion rights.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

 

General

 

The Preferred Shares subject to this offering are convertible into common shares of our Company. Our common shares are quoted on the Pink Open Market under the symbol “FDBL.” Our common shares trade and have traded on a limited or sporadic basis and should not be deemed to constitute an established public trading market. Broker-dealers often decline to trade in over-the-counter stocks that are quoted on the Pink Open Market given the market for such securities are often limited, the stocks are more volatile, and the risk to investors is greater. These factors may reduce the potential market for our common shares by reducing the number of potential investors. This may make it more difficult for investors in our common shares to sell shares to third parties or to otherwise dispose of their shares. This could cause our share price to decline, and there is no assurance that there will be liquidity in our common shares.

 

In addition, The Securities Enforcement and Penny Stock Reform Act of 1990 requires additional disclosure relating to the market for penny stocks in connection with trades in any stock defined as a penny stock. The SEC has adopted regulations that generally define a penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to a few exceptions which we do not meet. Unless an exception is available, the regulations require the delivery, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated therewith.

 

Articles of Incorporation

 

We are governed by our amended articles of incorporation (the “Articles”) under Nevada law (the “Act”) and by our by-laws (the “By-laws”).

 

A description of the rights attached to Series D Preferred Shares are explained below in the section titled “Securities Offered.” The discussion that immediately follows provides an overview of the rights attached to shares of all classes of equity securities other than Series D Preferred Shares. Series D Preferred Shares are convertible in common stock of the Company.

The presence of a majority of the Board of Directors, at a meeting duly assembled, shall be necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business and the act of a majority of the directors present and voting at any meeting, at which a quorum is then present, shall be the act of the Board of Directors, except as may be otherwise specifically provided by the statutes of Nevada or by the Articles of Incorporation. Unless otherwise restricted by the Articles of Incorporation or by these Bylaws, any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board of Directors may be taken without a meeting if a written consent thereto is signed by all members of the Board. 

61

 

The Company’s Articles of Incorporation provide that a director or officer is protected from being personally liable for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duties to the fullest extent permitted by law and provide that the Company may purchase directors and officers insurance. The Company’s Bylaws provide that the directors shall receive such compensation for their services as directors, and such additional compensation for their services as members of any committees of the Board of Directors, as may be authorized by the Board of Directors.

 

Voting

 

Each share of common stock entitles its holder to one vote on each matter submitted to the stockholders.

 

The holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to cast votes equal to the number of votes equal to the number of whole shares of common stock into which the shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by such holder are convertible (which is 9 shares of Common Stock per 1 Series A Preferred Stock).

 

The affirmative vote of a majority of Series A preferred stock have sufficient voting power to bind that class of shares and vote together with common stockholders as one class. The holders of a majority of the stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote thereat, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at all meetings of the stockholders for the transaction of business, except as otherwise provided by the statutes of Nevada or by the Articles of Incorporation. When a quorum is present or represented at any meeting, the holders of a majority of the stock present in person or represented by proxy and voting shall decide any question brought before such meeting, unless the question is one upon which, by express provision of the statutes of Nevada, the Articles of Incorporation or these Bylaws, a different vote is required, in which case such express provision shall govern and control the decision of such question.

 

The holders of Series B Preferred Stock and of Series C Preferred Stock generally have no right to vote on any matters requiring shareholder approval or any matters on which the shareholders are permitted to vote except as required by law and for the limited matters set forth in their certificates of designation. With respect to any voting rights of the Series B Preferred Stock or Series C Preferred Stock may vote, Series B Preferred Stock or Series C Preferred Stock, as the case may be, shall vote each vote separately as a class, each share of Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock shall have one vote on any such matter, and any such approval may be given by holders holding a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of each of Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock at such time shall be sufficient to bind that series of shares.

 

Conversion

 

The total aggregate issued shares of Series A Preferred Stock at any given time regardless of their number shall be convertible, at the option of the holder, into the number of shares of common stock which equals nine (9) times the total number of shares of common stock which are issued and outstanding at the time of any conversion, at the option of the preferred holders or until the closing of a “qualified financing” (meaning the sale and issuance of our equity securities that results in gross proceeds in excess of $2,500,000) at one time or in the same round. The “Series A Original Issue Price” means $0.002 per share for the Series A Preferred Stock subject to adjustment from time to time for any stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification or similar event.

 

No adjustment in the Series A Conversion Price shall be made as the result of the issuance or deemed issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock if the Corporation receives written notice from the holders of at least fifty percent (50%) of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock agreeing that no such adjustment shall be made as the result of the issuance or deemed issuance of such Additional Shares of Common Stock.

62

 

In addition, Series A Preferred Stock is subject to mandatory conversion upon either (a) the closing of the sale of shares of  Common Stock to the public, in a firm-commitment underwritten public offering pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, at a minimum price of $5.00 per share resulting in at least $30 million of gross proceeds to the Corporation or (b) the date and time, or the occurrence of an event, specified by vote or written consent of the  holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock (the time of such closing or the date and time specified or the time of the event specified in such vote or written consent is referred to as the “Mandatory Conversion Time”), at which point, (i) all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall automatically be converted into shares of Common Stock, at the then effective conversion rate and (ii) such shares may not be reissued by the Company.

 

A holder of Series B Preferred Stock also has the right to convert their Series B Preferred Stock into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, at their option. Initially, the conversion price for the Series B Preferred Stock is $0.25 per share (equivalent to 4 shares of Common Stock), subject to standard anti-dilution adjustments.

 

The holders of Series C Preferred Stock shall also have the right from time to time, and at any time during the period beginning on the date which is six (6) months following their date of issuance to convert all or any part of the outstanding Series C Preferred Stock into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock, as such Common Stock exists on the date of their issuance, or any shares of capital stock or other securities of the Company into which such Common Stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified at a variable conversion price of 71% multiplied by the market price based on the average of the two lowest trading prices for the Company’s common stock during the 20 trading day period ending on the latest complete trading day prior to the conversion date.

 

Dividends

 

The holders of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive non-cumulative dividends, when, and if declared, at a rate of 6% per year on the Series A Original Issue Price. For the avoidance of doubt, the “Series A Original Issue Price” means $0.002 per share for the Series A Preferred Stock subject to adjustment from time to time for any stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification or similar event.

 

Each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to, as a dividend, a pro rata portion of an amount equal to 10% (Ten Percent) of the Net Revenues (“Net Revenues” being Gross Sales minus Cost of Goods Sold) derived from the subscriptions and other sales, but excluding and net of Vimeo fees, processing fees and up sells, generated by Fan Pass Inc., the wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

 

Share of Series C Preferred Stock carry an annual dividend in the amount of eight percent (8%) of their stated value of $1.00 (the “Dividend Rate”) which shall be cumulative and compounded daily, payable solely upon redemption, liquidation or conversion. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the articles of incorporation of the company), the Dividend Rate for Series C Preferred Stock shall automatically increase to twenty two percent (22%).

 

Otherwise, the payment of dividends, if any, to common stockholders generally and in the future, rests within the sole discretion of our board of directors. Holders of common shares may receive dividends in the sole discretion of the Company’s board of directors. The payment of dividends will depend upon our earnings, our capital requirements and our financial condition, as well as other relevant factors. We have not declared any cash dividends since our inception and have no present intention of paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. 

 

There are no restrictions in our articles of incorporation or bylaws that prevent us from declaring dividends. The Nevada Revised Statutes, however, do prohibit us from declaring dividends where, after giving effect to the distribution of the dividend:

 

1. We would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or

 

2. Our total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the rights of shareholders who have preferential rights superior to those receiving the distribution.

63

 

Liquidation Preference

 

In the event of any Deemed Liquidation Event (as defined in the Articles of Incorporation of the Company), the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock then outstanding shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to its stockholders prior to and in preference to payment to the holders of the shares of Common Stock by reason of their ownership thereof, an amount per share equal to the greater of (i) the Series A Original Issue Price or (ii) such amount per share as would have been payable had all shares of Series A Preferred Stock been converted into  Common Stock immediately prior to such liquidation, dissolution, winding up or Deemed Liquidation Event (the amount payable pursuant to this sentence is hereinafter referred to as the “Series A Liquidation Amount”). 

 

If upon any such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company or Deemed Liquidation Event, the assets of the Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders shall be insufficient to pay the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock the full amount to which they shall be entitled under the Series A Liquidation Amount, the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall share ratably in any distribution of the assets available for distribution in proportion to the respective amounts which would otherwise be payable in respect of the shares held by them upon such distribution if all amounts payable on or with respect to such shares were paid in full.

 

Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock shall be paid ahead of Common Stock of the Company in the event of a Deemed Liquidation Event, but shall not be paid ahead of Series A Preferred Stock, which, for the avoidance of doubt, has not been converted into Common Stock of the Company.

SECURITIES OFFERED

  

Current Offering

 

The Company is offering up to $5,000,000 total of Securities, consisting of Series D Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 (the “Preferred Stock”) including up to 750,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock in to which the Preferred Stock is converted (collectively the “Securities”).

 

Series D Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”)

 

General

 

The Company has designated 500,000 (five hundred thousand) shares of its authorized and unissued Preferred Stock as “Series D Preferred Stock”. As of the date of this Offering Circular, zero shares of Series D Preferred Stock are issued and outstanding.

 

Voting

 

Holders of Series D Preferred Stock of the Company vote together as a single class, such that the affirmative vote of 50% of the then outstanding shares of Series D Preferred stock is sufficient to bind all holders of Series D Preferred Stock.

 

Except as required by applicable law, the holders of Series D Preferred Stock are only entitled to vote on any proposed amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation if such amendment would (1) Effect an exchange or reclassification of all or part of the Series D Preferred Stock into shares of another class; (2) Effect an exchange or reclassification, or create the right of exchange, of all or part of the shares of another class of the Company into shares of Series D Preferred Stock; (3) Adversely change the rights, preferences, or limitations of all or part of the shares of Series D Preferred Stock; (4) Change the shares of all or part of the Series D Preferred Stock into a different number of shares of Series D Preferred Stock; (5) Create a new class of shares having rights or preferences with respect to dissolution that are prior or superior to the shares of Series D Preferred Stock; (6) Increase the rights, preferences, or number of authorized shares of any class that, after giving effect to the amendment, have rights or preferences with respect to dissolution that are prior or superior to the shares of Series D Preferred Stock; (7) Limit or deny any existing preemptive right of all or part of the shares of the Series D Preferred Stock; or (8) Cancel or otherwise affect rights to distributions that have accumulated but not yet been authorized on all or part of the shares of the Series D Preferred Stock.

 

Dividends

Liquidation Preference

 

Upon the liquidation, dissolution and winding up of our company, whether voluntary or involuntary, Series D Preferred Stock is senior to all common stockholders and are entitled to receive an amount per share of Series D Preferred Stock equal to $10.00 per share, subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or other similar recapitalization with respect to the Series D Preferred Stock. If upon any such liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company or Deemed Liquidation Event (as defined in the Certificate of Designation of Series D Preferred Stock of the Company), the assets of the Company available for distribution to its stockholders shall be insufficient to pay the holders of shares of Series D Preferred Stock the full amount to which they shall be entitled in accordance with the foregoing and shall share ratably in any distribution of the assets available for distribution in proportion to the respective amounts which would otherwise be payable in respect of the shares held by them upon such distribution if all amounts payable on or with respect to such shares were paid in full.

65

 

Conversion

 

Each share of Series D Preferred Stock is convertible, at the option of the holder thereof, at any time and from time to time, and without the payment of additional consideration by the holder, into that number of fully paid and nonassessable shares of common stock of the Company (whether whole or fractional) that have a Fair Market Value, in the aggregate, equal to the Series D Conversion Price. The “Series D Conversion Price” is initially equal to $10.00. Such initial Series D Conversion Price, and the rate at which shares of Series D Preferred Stock may be converted into shares of Common Stock is subject to adjustment for Reclassification, Exchange, Substitution, Sales, Reorganizations, Mergers or Consolidations, as set forth in section 4.4 of the Series D Preferred Stock Certificate of Designation, which is an Exhibit hereto. “Fair Market Value” shall mean as of any date of determination, 80% of the average closing price of a share of Common Stock on the principal exchange or market on which such shares are then trading for the 20 trading days immediately preceding such date.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Series D Preferred Stock is subject to adjustment for reclassification, exchange and substitutions as follows: If the Common Stock issuable on the conversion of Series D Preferred Stock is changed into the same or a different number of shares of any class or classes of stock, whether by capital reorganization, reclassification, or otherwise (except in the event of a sale, reorganization or merger which results in a change in voting power of the Company that exceeds 50% of the combined voting power of the Company) then and in each such event, the holder of each share of Series D Preferred Stock shall have the right thereafter to convert such share into the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property receivable on such reorganization, reclassification or other change, by holders of the number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Series D Preferred Stock might have been converted immediately before such reorganization, reclassification, or change.

Dividend Policy

 

The payment of dividends, if any, in the future, rests within the sole discretion of our board of directors. The payment of dividends will depend upon our earnings, our capital requirements and our financial condition, as well as other relevant factors. We have not declared any cash dividends since our inception and have no present intention of paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

 

There are no restrictions in our articles of incorporation or bylaws that prevent us from declaring dividends. The Nevada Revised Statutes, however, do prohibit us from declaring dividends where, after giving effect to the distribution of the dividend:

 

1. We would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or

 

2. Our total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the rights of shareholders who have preferential rights superior to those receiving the distribution.

Certain legal matters with respect to the shares of common stock offered hereby will be passed upon by Jonathan D. Leinwand, Esq.

FRIENDABLE, INC.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2020 and 2019
(Unaudited)

 

1. NATURE OF BUSINESS AND GOING CONCERN

 

Nature of Business

 

Friendable, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), was incorporated in the State of Nevada.

 

Friendable, Inc. is a mobile-focused technology and marketing company, connecting and engaging users through two distinctly branded applications. The Company initially released its flagship product Friendable, as a social application where users can create one-on-one or group-style meetups. In 2019 the Company moved the Friendable app closer to a traditional dating application with its focus on building revenue, as well as reintroducing the brand as a non-threatening, all-inclusive place where “Everything starts with Friendship”…meet, chat & date.

 

On June 28, 2017, the Company formed a wholly owned Nevada subsidiary called Fan Pass Inc.

 

Fan Pass is the Company’s most recent or second app/brand, released in July, 2020. Fan Pass believes in connecting Fans of their favorite celebrity or artist, to an exclusive VIP or Backstage experience, right from their smartphone or other connected devices. Fan Pass allows an artist’s fanbase to experience something they would otherwise never have the opportunity to afford or geographically attend. The Company aims to establish both Friendable and Fan Pass as premier brands and mobile platforms that are dedicated to connecting and engaging users from anywhere around the World.

 

Presently, until our apps gain greater adoption from paying subscribers through increased awareness, coupled with additional compelling and exclusive digital content to produce higher revenue levels, the Company has largely supported its operations through the sale of its software services, and specifically its app development services, under a contractual relationship since inception with a third party. The Company’s plan, in due course, is to replace revenue from third party app development services with revenue from its own Friendable and Fan Pass apps, which have various revenue streams currently being tested for long term and/or recurring monthly viability.

 

On August 27, 2019, a 1 for 18,000 reverse stock split of our common stock became effective. All share and per share information in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and footnotes has been retroactively adjusted for the effects of the reverse split for all periods presented.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which implies that the Company would continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. As of September 30, 2020, the Company has a working capital deficiency of $4,015,966, an accumulated deficit of $34,933,670 and has a stockholder’s deficit of $4,015,966 and its operations continue to be funded primarily from sales of its stock, the issuance of convertible debentures and short-term loans. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020 the Company had a net loss and net cash used in operations of $2,489,787 and $260,931. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of twelve months from the issuance of this report. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to obtain the necessary financing through the issuance of convertible notes and equity instruments. The unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Management plans to raise financing through the issuance of convertible notes and equity sales. No assurance can be given that any such additional financing will be available, or that it can be obtained on terms acceptable to the Company and its stockholders.

 

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

 

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include all the accounts of the Company and all of its wholly owned subsidiaries as of September 30, 2020 and 2019. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31.

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (the “U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal year as a whole. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the summary of significant accounting policies and notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 of the Company which were included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission June 29, 2020.

FRIENDABLE, INC.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2020 and 2019
(Unaudited)

 

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain balances in 2019 have been reclassified to conform with the 2020 presentation. Specifically, accrued interest on convertible notes has been reclassified into accounts payable and accrued expenses and accretion and interest expense has been reclassified to other expenses.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of these statements in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses in the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to valuation of convertible debenture conversion options, derivative instruments, deferred income tax asset valuations, financial instrument valuations, share-based payments, other equity-based payments, and loss contingencies. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

In accordance with ASC 606, revenue is recognized when the following criteria have been met; valid contracts are identified with specific customers, performance obligations have been identified, price is determinable, price is allocated to performance obligations, and the Company has satisfied the performance obligations. Revenue generally is recognized net of allowances for returns and any taxes collected from customers and subsequently remitted to governmental authorities. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company derived revenues primarily from the development of apps for a third party of $319,331, and such revenues were recognized upon completion of services, and secondarily revenue from the Friendable and Fan Pass apps totaling $3,340.

 

Sales and Marketing Costs

 

The Company’s policy regarding sales and marketing costs is to expense such costs when incurred. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company incurred $82,335 (September 30, 2019: $52,924) in sales and marketing costs.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

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

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances are present, the Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows.

 

If the total of the future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of those assets, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.

 

Derivative liabilities

 

The Company has a financial instrument associated with a debt restructuring agreement and conversion options embedded in convertible debt. The Company evaluates all its financial instruments to determine if those contracts or any potential embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for in accordance with ASC 815-10 – Derivative and Hedging – Contract in Entity’s Own Equity. This accounting treatment requires that the carrying amount of any derivatives be recorded at fair value at issuance and marked-to-market at each balance sheet date. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, as is the case with the Company, the change in the fair value during the period is recorded as either other income or expense. Upon conversion, exercise or repayment, the respective derivative liability is marked to fair value at the conversion, repayment or exercise date and then the related fair value amount is reclassified to other income or expense as part of gain or loss on debt extinguishment.

FRIENDABLE, INC.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2020 and 2019
(Unaudited)

 

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 

In July 2017, FASB issued ASU No. 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260); Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480); Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): (Part I) Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features. These amendments simplify the accounting for certain financial instruments with down-round features. The amendments require companies to disregard the down-round feature when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to its own stock, for purposes of determining liability or equity classification. The guidance was adopted as of January 1, 2019 and the adoption did not have any impact on its consolidated financial statement and there was no cumulative effect adjustment.

 

Stock-based Compensation

 

During 2018 the Company recorded stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Based Compensation and ASC 505, Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense based on estimated fair values for all share-based awards made to employees and directors, including stock options. In 2019 the Company adopted ASU 2018-07 which expands the measurement requirements to non-employees.

 

ASC 718 requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model as its method in determining fair value. This model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of subjective variables. These subjective variables include but are not limited to the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the terms of the awards, and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense in the statement of operations over the requisite service period.

 

All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.

 

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

The Company monitors its outstanding receivables for timely payments and potential collection issues. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company did not have any allowance for doubtful accounts.

 

Financial Instruments

 

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized in the balance sheet when the Company has become party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.

 

The Company’s financial instruments consist of accounts receivable, accounts payable, convertible debentures, stock settled debt, derivatives, mandatorily redeemable Series C Preferred stock and promissory notes. The fair values of these financial instruments approximate their carrying value, due to their short-term nature, and current market rates for similar financial instruments. Fair value of a financial instrument 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 Company’s financial instruments recorded at fair value in the balance sheets are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value.

 

Concentrations

 

We have substantial client concentration, with one client accounting for a substantial portion of our revenues.

 

In the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 we derived 99% of our revenue from one client. There are inherent risks whenever a large percentage of total revenues are concentrated with a limited number of clients. It is not possible for us to predict the future level of demand for our services that will be generated by this client or the future demand for the products and services of other similar clients. A loss of this client or the failure to retain similar clients could negatively affect our revenues and results of operations and/or trading price of our common stock.

 

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share

 

The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 

As of September 30, 2020, there were approximately 1,180,528,592 potentially dilutive shares outstanding, as follows.

 

Potential dilutive shares

 

  60,908     Warrants outstanding
  14,313,505     Common shares issuable upon conversion of convertible debt
  1,149,991,726     Total shares issuable upon conversion of Preferred Series A shares
  1,136,000     Total shares issuable upon conversion of Preferred Series B shares
  15,026,403     Total shares issuable upon conversion of Preferred Series C shares
  1,180,528,592      

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. The asset and liability method provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and for operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (ASC Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”), which requires lessees to recognize at the commencement date for all leases, with the exception of short-term leases, (i) a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis, and (ii) a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. ASU 2016-02 will take effect for public companies for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The ASU requires adoption using a modified retrospective transition approach with either (a) periods prior to the adoption date being recast or (b) a cumulative-effect adjustment recognized to the opening balance of retained earnings on the adoption date with prior periods not recast. As of September 30, 2020 the Company has no lease obligations.

4. CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES (CONTINUED)

 

The debt holders agreed to convert their debt of approximately $6.3 million and accrued interest of approximately $1.8 million into an initial 5,902,589 shares of common stock as set forth in the Agreement upon the Company meeting certain milestones including but not limited to: the Company effecting a reverse stock split and maintaining a stock price of $1.00 per share; being current with its periodic report filings pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act; certain vendors and Company employees forgiving an aggregate of $1,000,000 in amounts owed to them; the Company raising not less than $400,000 in common stock at a post-split price of not less than $.20 per share; and certain other things as further set forth in the Agreement. The debt holders will be subject to certain lock up and leak out provisions as contained in the Agreement. As part of the Agreement the parties signed a Rights to Shares Agreement. Whereas the Agreement called for all the shares to be delivered at closing, the holders are generally restricted to beneficial ownership of up to 4.99% of the company’s common shares outstanding. The Rights to Shares Agreement allows for the Company to issue shares to each holder up the 4.99% limitation while preserving the holders’ rights to the total shares in schedule A of the Agreement. Accordingly, the 5,902,589 common shares due were recorded as issuable in equity.

 

On December 26, 2019, all parties signed an amendment to the Agreement which set forth, among other things, the following:

 

Company Principals have given Holders notice that it has satisfied all conditions of closing.

 

The Agreement is considered Closed as of November 5, 2019 (“Settlement Date”) and any conditions of closing not satisfied are waived.

 

Reset Dates. The “Reset Dates” as set forth in Section 1(h) of the Agreement shall be as follows: March 4, 2020 and July 2, 2020. As of the reset dates the holders can convert all or part of the settled note amounts at the lower of (i) 75% of the closing bid price for the Common Stock on such respective Reset Date, or (ii) the VWAP for the Company’s Common Stock for the 7 trading days immediately preceding and including such respective Reset Dates. This reset provision provides for the issuance of additional shares above the initial 5,902,589 shares for no additional consideration as measured at each of the two reset dates.

 

On March 4, 2020 the Company became obligated issue an additional 36,193,098 shares of common stock and on July 2, 2020 it became obligated to issue an additional 63,275,243 shares for a total amount of shares due of 105,370,930.

 

The Company determined that the reset provision represented a standalone derivative liability. Accordingly, this debt restructure transaction was accounted for in 2019 as an extinguishment of debt for consideration equal to the $2,384,646 fair value of the 5,902,589 common shares issuable, based on the $0.404 quoted trading price of the Company’s common stock price on the settlement date, and the initial fair value of the derivative liability of $12,653,000 resulting in a loss on debt extinguishment of $6,954,920.

 

The Company adjusted this derivative liability to fair value at each reporting and settlement date, with changes in fair value reported in the statement of operations. The Company estimated the fair value of the obligations to issue common stock pursuant to the Debt Restructuring Agreement, as amended, using Monte Carlo simulations and the following assumptions:

 

    November 5,     December     June  
    2019     31, 2019     30, 2020  
Volatility     617 %     738.1 %     293.6 %
Risk Free Rate     1.59 %     1.6 %     .13 %
Expected Term     0.66       0.5       0.01  

 

Because the second (and final) reset date of July 2, 2020 determined that the total common shares issuable to fully settle this debt amounted to 105,370,930 a derivative liability no longer exists and the Company recognized a final gain on settlement on July 2, 2020 of $257,316.

 

On September 21, 2020, Ellis International LP (as successor to Alpha Capital Anstalt) submitted a request to drawdown and, on September 29, 2020, was issued 687,355 common shares against its entitlement above and reclassified from issuable shares in the accompanying balance sheet and statement of changes in stockholder equity.

 

Subsequent to September 30, 2020, on November 9, 2020, Coventry Enterprises requested and was issued 915,000 common shares and on November 23, 2020 Barbara Mittman requested and was issued 1,262,783 against their respective entitlement under the debt settlement agreement, which was reclassified from issuable shares.

Derivative Liabilities

 

The Company accounts for its obligation to issue common stock (“Reset Provision”) as derivative instruments in accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” which are reflected as liabilities at fair value on the consolidated balance sheet, with changes in fair value reported in the consolidated statement of operations. Fair value is defined as the price to sell an asset or transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between willing and able market participants. The number of shares of common stock the Company could be obligated to issue, is based on future trading prices of the Company’s common stock. To reflect this uncertainty in estimating the fair value of the potential obligation to issue common stock, the Company uses a Monte Carlo model that considers the reporting date trading price, historical volatility of the Company’s common stock, and risk free rate in estimating the fair value of the potential obligation to issue common stock. The results of the Monte Carlo simulation model are most sensitive to inputs for expected volatility. Depending on the availability of observable inputs and prices, different valuation models could produce materially different fair value estimates. The estimated fair values may not represent future fair values and may not be realizable. We categorize our fair value estimates in accordance with ASC 820 based on the hierarchical framework associated with the three levels of price transparency utilized in measuring financial instruments at fair value as discussed above.

 

The following is a summary of activity related to the reset provision derivative liability for the nine months ended September 30, 2020:

 

Balance, Derivative Liability at December 31, 2019   $ 12,778,000

JP Carey Convertible Note dated March 30, 2017 and assignments

 

On April 7, 2017, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement with Joseph Canouse (the “Agreement”).

(i) Employment agreements with related parties.

 

On April 3, 2019, the Company entered into employment agreements with three officers. Pursuant to the agreements, the Company shall pay officers an aggregate annual salary amount of $400,000. Upon a successful launch of the Company’s Fan Pass mobile app or website, and the Company achieving various levels of subscribers, the officers are eligible to receive additional bonuses and salary increases. With mutual agreement with the Company, effective August 31, 2020 one of the officers chose early termination of his employment, which reduced the annual commitment for the remaining officers to $300,000.

 

(ii) Lawsuit Contingency.

 

Integrity Media, Inc. (“Integrity”) had previously filed a lawsuit against the Company and the CEO of the Company for $500,000 alleging breach of contract alleging the Company failed to deliver marketable securities in exchange for services. The Company answered the allegations in court and Integrity filed a motion attacking the Company’s answers. While the court did not strike those responses, the clerk of the court entered a default judgment against the Company in the amount of $1,192,875 plus 10% interest. On May 8, 2019, the Company received a tentative ruling on the Company’s motion to vacate the default judgement whereby the previously entered default judgement was voided and a trial date of August 26, 2019 was set.

 

On September 19, 2019, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement, as Amended, with Integrity Media settling the civil action known as Integrity Media, Inc. vs. Friendable, Inc. et al., Orange County Case No. 30-2016-00867956-CU-CO-CJC. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Company agreed to issue to Integrity 750,000 shares of its common stock to be issued in tranches every 30 days or according to the instructions of Integrity, in exchange for 275 of the Company’s preferred shares held by Integrity and the cash payment of $30,000 for costs. Robert Rositano, the Company’s CEO, has also personally guaranteed the Company’s compliance with the terms of the Settlement Agreement. The cash payment is to be made within 6 months of the date of the Settlement Agreement. As of the date of filing of this report the cash amount has not been paid and the preferred shares have not been returned. Additionally, Integrity will be entitled to additional shares if (i) the price of the Company’s common stock is below $1.34 at either the 120 day or 240 day reset dates set forth in the Company’s Debt Restructure Agreement as amended entered into with various debt holders on March 26, 2019 effective November 5, 2019. The Company determined that a total of 4,275,000 additional shares would be issuable on the first “reset” date of March 4, 2020 based on a share price of $0.20 on that date and a total of 7,537,500 additional shares would be issuable on the second “reset” date of July 2, 2020 based on a share price of $0.08 on that date, for a total of 12,562,500 shares. Integrity will also be entitled to a “true-up” by the issuance of additional common shares on the issuance date should the share price of the Company’s common stock on the issuance date be below $1.00. It was determined by the Company that its liability was $1,005,000 ($750,000 plus a premium of $255,000), in accordance with ASC 480.

7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED)

 

On August 28, 2020 Integrity requested and was issued 750,000 common shares, which Integrity advised the Company realized $16,625 when sold. Accordingly, at September 30, 2020 the Company reduced its liability payable in common stock from $1,005,000 to $988,375 and retained $30,000 as an accrued liability for costs.

 

On October 14, 2020 the Company filed a “Declaration” with the Santa Clara County Courts challenging Integrity’s future ability to convert additional shares based on “Stock Market Manipulation” designed to harm the Company’s share price, valuation and number of shares issuable to Integrity following its sales. Additionally, the Company contended that Integrity disregarded the volume limitation set forth in its settlement for the Company’s thinly traded securities and caused a potential third party capital investment of $150,000 to be rescinded. The court agreed with the Company’s declaration that Integrity should have filed a motion so the Company would have the opportunity to present all arguments and evidence in opposition to deny Integrity’s application to enter judgment.

 

COVID-19 Disclosure

 

The coronavirus pandemic has at times adversely affected the Company’s business and is expected to continue to adversely affect certain aspects of our merchandise offerings and custom artist collections of merchandise specifically. This impact on our operations, supply chains and distribution systems may also impair our ability to raise capital. There is uncertainty around the duration and breadth of the COVID-19 pandemic and, as a result, uncertainty on the ultimate impact on our business. Such impact on the Company’s financial condition and operating results cannot be reasonably estimated at this time, since the extent of such impact is dependent on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.

 

8. COMMON AND PREFERRED STOCK

 

Common Stock:

 

During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company:

 

Issued 393,418 shares of common stock to two convertible note holders for partial conversion of an aggregate of $21,356 of the notes at the contractual conversion rates. 120,000 of the shares remained issuable as of December 31, 2019.

 

Issued 534,000 shares of common stock to various subscribers of common stock under security purchase agreements at $0.25 per share for a total of $133,500. Certain of these agreements contained a provision whereby the founders of the Company were to issue to the subscribers (a) an aggregate of 47,000 shares of common stock from their personal holdings and (b) another amount of common shares (43,811) by converting their held Series A preferred shares as measured on the date one year from the closing of the offering. There is no accounting effect for these transfers. In addition, other agreements contained a provision whereby the Company would set aside 10% of future net revenue from a specific product and share ratably with the investors. The Company has reviewed ASC 470-10-25, “Sales of Future Revenues or Various other Measures of Income.” and determined that no debt provision is needed.

After the qualified financing the conversion shares issuable shall be the original issue price of the Series A preferred stock divided by $0.002. The holders of Series A Preferred stock are entitled to receive non-cumulative dividends when and if declared at a rate of 6% per year. On all matters presented to the stockholders for action the holders of Series A Preferred stock shall be entitled to cast votes equal to the number of shares the holder would be entitled to if the Series A Preferred stock were converted at the date of record.

8. COMMON AND PREFERRED STOCK (CONTINUED)

 

During the year ended December 31, 2019, 149,300 shares of Series C convertible preferred stock were issued to an investor under preferred stock purchase agreements at a price of approximately $0.91 per share for a total of $136,000. Due to the mandatory redemption feature, these shares are reflected as a current liability at December 31, 2019. Furthermore, because these shares are convertible at 71% of the common shares market price around the time of the conversion date, they are treated as a stock settled debt under ASC 480 with a premium of $55,549 recorded and charged to interest expense. The total amount is reflected at $191,549 at December 31, 2019.

 

As of June 30, 2020, the Company has revalued the shares and premiums at the stated value of $1.50 per share in accordance with the events discussed below. On May 29, 2020 the Company defaulted on the shares by being late with the filing of the Form 10-K, thereby increasing the dividend rate to 22% and the stated value to $1.50 per share.

Due to the mandatory redemption feature, these shares were reflected as a current liability at June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020.

 

Because Series C preferred shares are convertible at 71% of the common shares market price around the time of the conversion date, they are treated as a stock settled debt under ASC 480 with a total premium of $114,755 recorded as of June 30, 2020. In addition, the Company recorded a cumulative dividend payable of $11,885 as of June 30, 2020 to the mandatorily redeemable Series C convertible preferred stock liability with this amount being recorded as interest expense since the Series C liability must be reflected at redemption value.

During the three months ended September 30, 2020 the holder of the Series C converted 62,500 Series C shares to 3,822,958 common shares for a redemption value of $96,750 including accrued dividends plus premium of $38,292, which totaled $135,042 recorded into equity.

10. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

On November 22, 2011, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a stock option plan (“2011 Stock Option Plan”), the purpose of which is to enhance the Company’s stockholder value and financial performance by attracting, retaining and motivating the Company’s officers, directors, key employees, consultants and its affiliates and to encourage stock ownership by such individuals by providing them with a means to acquire a proprietary interest in the Company’s success through stock ownership. Under the 2011 Stock Option Plan, officers, directors, employees and consultants who provide services to the Company may be granted options to acquire common shares of the Company. The aggregate number of options authorized by the plan shall not exceed 4,974 shares of common stock of the Company.

 

The Board of Directors and the stockholders holding a majority of the voting power approved a 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”) on February 28, 2014, with a to be determined effective date. The date never became effective. The purpose of the 2014 Plan is to assist the Company and its affiliates in attracting, retaining and providing incentives to employees, directors, consultants and independent contractors who serve the Company and its affiliates by offering them the opportunity to acquire or increase their proprietary interest in the Company and to promote the identification of their interests with those of the stockholders of the Company. The 2014 Plan will also be used to make grants to further reward and incentivize current employees and others.

10. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION (CONTINUED)

 

There are 7 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2014 Plan. The Board shall have the power and authority to make grants of stock options to employees, directors, consultants and independent contractors who serve the Company and its affiliates. Any stock options granted under the 2014 Plan shall have an exercise price equal to or greater than the fair market value of the Company’s shares of common stock. Unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors, stock options shall vest over a four-year period with 25% being vested after the end of one (1) year of service and the remainder vesting equally over a 36-month period. The Board may award options that may vest based upon the achievement of certain performance milestones. As of September 30, 2020, no options have been awarded under the 2014 Plan. Effective August 27, 2019, the Company effected a reverse split of the common stock of 1 for 18,000 (Note 1) which eliminated all the options which were previously outstanding.

 

11. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, require an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:

 

Level 1

 

Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market and do not entail a significant degree of judgment.

 

Level 2

 

Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are other than Level 1 observable inputs such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

 

Level 2 instruments require more management judgment and subjectivity as compared to Level 1 instruments. For instance: determining which instruments are most similar to the instrument being priced requires management to identify a sample of similar securities based on the coupon rates, maturity, issuer, credit rating and instrument type, and subjectively select an individual security or multiple securities that are deemed most similar to the security being priced; and determining whether a market is considered active requires management judgment.

 

Level 3

 

Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities. The determination of fair value for Level 3 instruments requires the most management judgment and subjectivity.

 

Pursuant to ASC 825, cash is based on Level 1 inputs. The Company believes that the recorded values of accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their current fair values because of their nature or respective relatively short durations. The fair value of the Company’s convertible debentures and promissory note approximates their carrying values as the underlying imputed interest rates approximates the estimated current market rate for similar instruments.

 

As of September 30, 2020, there was a derivative measured at fair value on a recurring basis (see note 4) presented on the Company’s balance sheet, as follows:

 

    Liabilities at Fair Value  
    September 30, 2020  
    Level 1     Level 2     Level 3     Total  
Embedded conversion of options derivative liabilities     -       -     $ 209,000     $ 209,000

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of:

Friendable, Inc.

 

Opinion on the Financial Statements

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Friendable, Inc. and Subsidiary (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2019, the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows, for the year then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2019, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

We also audited the adjustments described in Note 1 to retrospectively apply the effects of the 1 for 18,000 reverse stock-split to all periods presented including the 2018 period. In our opinion, such adjustments are appropriate and have been properly applied. We were not engaged to audit, review or apply any procedures to the 2018 consolidated financial statements other than with respect to the reverse stock-split adjustments and accordingly, we do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance on the 2018 consolidated financial statements taken as a whole.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has a net loss and cash used in operations of $10,183,410 and $488,864, respectively, in 2019 and has a working capital deficit, stockholders’ deficit and accumulated deficit of $15,970,305, $32,443,883 and $15,970,305, respectively, at December 31, 2019. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s Plan in regards to these matters is also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Basis for Opinion

 

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

 

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of Friendable, Inc.

 

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

 

We have audited, before the effects of the adjustment to retrospectively apply the adjustments described in Note 1 to apply the effects of the 1 for 18,000 reverse stock-split to all periods presented including the 2018 period the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Friendable, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”), which comprised the consolidated statements of financial position as at December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss, consolidated statement of stockholders’ deficit and consolidated statements of cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the related notes, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”).

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements, before the effects of the adjustments to retrospectively apply the effects of the 1 for 18,000 reverse stock-split as described in Note 1, present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2018 and 2017, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States as issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board.

 

We were not engaged to audit, review, or apply any procedures to the adjustments to retrospectively apply the effects of the 1 for 18,000 reverse stock-split as described in Note 1 and, accordingly, we do not express an option or any other form of assurance about whether such adjustments are appropriate and have been properly applied. These adjustments were audited by Salberg & Company, P.A.

 

Explanatory Paragraph – Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has a working capital deficit and has accumulated losses since inception. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also discussed in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

FRIENDABLE, INC.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

December 31, 2019 and 2018

 

1. NATURE OF BUSINESS AND GOING CONCERN

 

Nature of Business

 

Friendable, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), was incorporated in the State of Nevada.

 

Friendable, Inc. is a mobile-focused technology and marketing company, connecting and engaging users through two distinctly branded applications. The Company initially released its flagship product Friendable, as a social application where users can create one-on-one or group-style meetups. In 2019 the Company has moved the Friendable app closer to a traditional dating application with its focus on building revenue, as well as reintroducing the brand as a non-threatening, all-inclusive place where “Everything starts with Friendship”…meet, chat & date.

 

On June 28, 2017, the Company formed a wholly owned Nevada subsidiary called Fan Pass Inc.

 

Fan Pass is the Company’s most recent or second app/brand, scheduled for release in 2020. Fan Pass believes in connecting Fans of their favorite celebrity or artist, to an exclusive VIP or Backstage experience, right from their smartphone or other connected devices. Fan Pass allows an artist’s fanbase to experience something they would otherwise never have the opportunity to afford or geographically attend. The Company aims to establish both Friendable and Fan Pass as premier brands and mobile platforms that are dedicated to connecting and engaging users from anywhere around the World.

 

On August 8, 2019 the Company filed a Designation of Series B convertible Preferred Stock with the state of Nevada, designating 1,000,000 shares of the Series B Preferred Stock with a stated value of $1.00 per share. A holder of Series B Preferred Stock has the right to convert their Series B Preferred Stock into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock. Initially, the conversion price for the Series B Preferred Stock is $.25 per share, subject to standard anti-dilution adjustments. Additionally, each share of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to, as a dividend, a pro rata portion of an amount equal to 10% (Ten Percent) of the Net Revenues (“Net Revenues” being Gross Sales minus Cost of Goods Sold) derived from the subscriptions and other sales, but excluding and net of Vimeo fees, processing fees and up sells, generated by Fan Pass Inc., the wholly-owned subsidiary of the Corporation. The Series B Dividend shall be calculated and paid on a monthly basis in arrears starting on the day 30 days following the first day of the month following the initial issuance of the Series B Preferred and continuing for a period of 60 (Sixty) months. The holders of Series B Preferred stock shall have no voting rights. The holders of Series B Preferred stock shall not be entitled to receive any dividends. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company or deemed liquidation event, the holders of shares of Series B Preferred Stock shall be entitled to be paid the liquidation amount, as defined out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to its shareholders, after distributions to holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and before distributions to holders of Common Stock.

 

On August 27, 2019, a 1 for 18,000 reverse stock split of our common stock became effective. All share and per share information in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and footnotes has been retroactively adjusted for the effects of the reverse split for all periods presented.

 

On November 25, 2019 the Company filed a Designation of Series C convertible Preferred Stock with the state of Nevada, designating 1,000,000 shares of the Series C Preferred Stock with a stated value of $1.00 per share. The Series C Preferred Stock will, with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, winding-up or dissolution, rank: (a) senior with respect to dividends with the Company’s common stock, par value 0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”)(the Series C Preferred Stock will convert into common stock immediately upon liquidation and be pari passu with the common stock in the event of litigation), and (b) junior with respect to dividends and right of liquidation to all existing and future indebtedness of the Company. The Series C Preferred Stock does not have any voting rights. Each share of Series C Preferred Stock will carry an annual dividend in the amount of eight percent (8%) of the Stated Value of $1.00 (the “Divided Rate”), which shall be cumulative and compounded daily, payable solely upon redemption, liquidation or conversion and increase to 22% upon an event of default as defined. In the event of any default other than the Company’s failure to issue shares upon conversion, the stated price will be $1.50. In a default event where the Company fails to issue shares upon conversion, the stated price will $2.00. The holder shall have the right six months following the issuance date, to convert all or any part of the outstanding Series C Preferred Stock into shares of common stock of the Company. The conversion price shall equal the Variable Conversion Price. The “Variable Conversion Price” shall mean 71% multiplied by the market price, representing a discount rate of 29%. Market price means the average of the two lowest trading prices for the Company’s common stock during the twenty trading day period ending on the latest complete trading day prior to the conversion date. Upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, or upon any deemed liquidation event, after payment or provision for payment of debts and other liabilities of the Company, and after payment or provision for any liquidation preference payable to the holders of any Preferred Stock ranking senior upon liquidation to the Series C Preferred Stock, if any, but prior to any distribution or payment made to the holders of Common Stock or the holders of any Preferred Stock ranking junior upon liquidation to the Series C Preferred Stock by reason of their ownership thereof, the Holders will be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the Company available for distribution to its stockholders. The Company will have the right, at the Company’s option, to redeem all or any portion of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock, exercisable on not more than three trading days prior written notice to the Holders, in full, in accordance with Section 6 of the designations at a premium of up to 35% for up to six months. Company’s mandatory redemption: On the earlier to occur of (i) the date which is twenty-four (24) months following the Issuance Date and (ii) the occurrence of an Event of Default (the “Mandatory Redemption Date”), the Company shall redeem all of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock of the Holders (which have not been previously redeemed or converted).

1. NATURE OF BUSINESS AND GOING CONCERN (CONTINUED)

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which implies that the Company would continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. As of December 31, 2019, the Company has a working capital deficiency of $15,970,305 and has an accumulated deficit of $32,443,883 and a stockholder’s deficit of $15,970,305 since inception and its operations continue to be funded primarily from sales of its stock and issuance of convertible debentures. During 2019 the Company had a net loss and net cash used in operations of $10,183,410 and $488,864. As of December 31, 2019 the Company had $1,360 of cumulative dividends related to the Series C convertible preferred stock. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of twelve months from the issuance of this report. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to obtain the necessary financing through the issuance of convertible notes and equity instruments. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Management plans to raise financing through the issuance of convertible notes and equity sales. No assurance can be given that any such additional financing will be available, or that it can be obtained on terms acceptable to the Company and its stockholders.

 

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include all the accounts of the Company and all of its wholly owned subsidiaries as of December 31, 2019 and 2018. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain balances in 2018 have been reclassified to conform with the 2019 presentation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of these statements in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses in the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to valuation of convertible debenture conversion options, derivative instruments, deferred income tax asset valuations, financial instrument valuations, share-based payments, other equity-based payments, and loss contingencies. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected. 

 

Revenue Recognition

 

In accordance with ASC 606, revenue is recognized when the following criteria have been met; valid contracts are identified with specific customers, performance obligations have been identified, price is determinable, price is allocated to performance obligations, and the Company has satisfied the performance obligations. Revenue generally is recognized net of allowances for returns and any taxes collected from customers and subsequently remitted to governmental authorities. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company derived revenues primarily from the development of apps for a third party, and such revenues were recognized upon completion of services.

 

Advertising Costs

 

The Company’s policy regarding advertising is to expense advertising when incurred. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2019, the Company incurred $48,375 (December 31, 2018: $1,783) in advertising costs.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

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

 

Intangible Assets

 

The Company accounts for intangible assets in accordance with ASC 350, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other. The Company assesses potential impairments to intangible assets when there is evidence that events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recovered.

F-31

 

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 

Intangible assets with finite lives are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of intangible assets with finite lives is measured by comparing the carrying amount of the asset to its fair value. If the future value of the asset is lower than its carrying value, the Company recognizes an impairment loss for the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds the related estimated fair value.

 

Intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested for impairment annually or more frequently are tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it is more likely than not that the intangible asset is impaired.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances are present, the Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows.

 

If the total of the future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of those assets, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.

 

Derivative liabilities

 

The Company has a financial instrument associated with a debt restructuring agreement. The Company evaluates all its financial instruments to determine if those contracts or any potential embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for in accordance with ASC 815-10 – Derivative and Hedging – Contract in Entity’s Own Equity. This accounting treatment requires that the carrying amount of any derivatives be recorded at fair value at issuance and marked-to-market at each balance sheet date. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, as is the case with the Company, the change in the fair value during the period is recorded as either other income or expense. Upon conversion, exercise or repayment, the respective derivative liability is marked to fair value at the conversion, repayment or exercise date and then the related fair value amount is reclassified to other income or expense as part of gain or loss on debt extinguishment.

 

In July 2017, FASB issued ASU No. 2017-11, Earnings Per Share (Topic 260); Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (Topic 480); Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): (Part I) Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features. These amendments simplify the accounting for certain financial instruments with down-round features. The amendments require companies to disregard the down-round feature when assessing whether the instrument is indexed to its own stock, for purposes of determining liability or equity classification. The guidance was adopted as of January 1, 2019. The Company adopted ASU No. 2017-11 in the first quarter of 2019, and the adoption did not have any impact on its consolidated financial statement and there was no cumulative effect adjustment.

 

Stock-based Compensation

 

During 2018 the Company recorded stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Based Compensation and ASC 505, Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense based on estimated fair values for all share-based awards made to employees and directors, including stock options. In 2019 the Company adopted ASU 2018-07 which expands the measurement requirements to non employees.

 

ASC 718 requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model as its method in determining fair value. This model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of subjective variables. These subjective variables include, but are not limited to the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the terms of the awards, and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense in the statement of operations over the requisite service period.

 

All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.

 

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

The Company monitors its outstanding receivables for timely payments and potential collection issues. At December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company did not have any allowance for doubtful accounts.

 

Financial Instruments

 

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized in the balance sheet when the Company has become party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.

 

The Company’s financial instruments consist of accounts receivable, accounts payable, convertible debentures, stock settled debt, derivatives, mandatorily redeemable Series C Preferred stock and promissory notes. The fair values of these financial instruments approximate their carrying value, due to their short term nature, and current market rates for similar financial instruments. Fair value of a financial instrument 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 Company’s financial instruments recorded at fair value in the balance sheets are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

 

Concentrations

 

We Have Substantial Client Concentration, with one Client Accounting for a Substantial Portion of our Revenues.

 

In the year ended December 31, 2019 we derived 99% (2018: 0%) of our revenue from one client. There are inherent risks whenever a large percentage of total revenues are concentrated with a limited number of clients. It is not possible for us to predict the future level of demand for our services that will be generated by this client or the future demand for the products and services of other similar clients. A loss of this client or the failure to retain similar clients could negatively affect our revenues and results of operations and/or trading price of our common stock.

 

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share

 

The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share. ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

 

As of December 31, 2019, there were approximately 122,051,838 potentially dilutive shares outstanding. Potential dilutive shares:

 

  60,908     Warrants outstanding
  2,212,523     Common shares issuable upon conversion of convertible debt
  116,248,041     Total shares issuable upon conversion of Preferred Series A shares
  1,136,000     Total shares issuable upon conversion of Preferred Series B shares
  2,394,366     Total shares issuable upon conversion of Preferred Series C shares
  122,051,838      

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes. The asset and liability method provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and for operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (ASC Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”), which requires lessees to recognize at the commencement date for all leases, with the exception of short-term leases, (i) a lease liability, which is a lessee’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis, and (ii) a right-of-use asset, which is an asset that represents the lessee’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term. ASU 2016-02 will take effect for public companies for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. The ASU requires adoption using a modified retrospective transition approach with either (a) periods prior to the adoption date being recast or (b) a cumulative-effect adjustment recognized to the opening balance of retained earnings on the adoption date with prior periods not recast. As at December 31, 2019 the Company has no lease obligations.

During the year ended December 31, 2019, three officers forgave debt totaling $400,000 and a company controlled by two officers of the Company forgave debt totaling $600,000. The total amount is reflected as contributed capital.

 

5. CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES

 

During the year ended December 31, 2019, $8,355 (2018: $60,300) of convertible debentures were converted at the contractual rate by issuing 33,418 (2018: 30,167) shares of common stock of the Company.

 

On March 26, 2019 the Company entered into a Debt Restructuring Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Robert A. Rositano Jr. (“Robert Rositano”), Dean Rositano (“Dean Rositano”), Frank Garcia (“Garcia”), Checkmate Mobile, Inc. (“Checkmate”), Alpha Capital Anstalt (“Alpha”), Coventry Enterprises, LLC (“Coventry”), Palladium Capital Advisors, LLC (“Palladium”), EMA Financial, LLC (“EMA”), Michael Finkelstein (“Finkelstein”), and Barbara R. Mittman (“Mittman”), each being a debt holder of the Company.

 

The debt holders agreed to convert their debt of approximately $6.3 million into an initial 5,902,589 shares of common stock as set forth in the Agreement upon the Company meeting certain milestones including but not limited to: the Company effecting a reverse stock split and maintaining a stock price of $1.00 per share; being current with its periodic report filings pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act; certain vendors and Company employees forgiving an aggregate of $1,000,000 in amounts owed to them; the Company raising not less than $400,000 in common stock at a post-split price of not less than $.20 per share; and certain other things as further set forth in the Agreement. The debt holders will be subject to certain lock up and leak out provisions as contained in the Agreement. As part of the Agreement the parties signed a Rights to Shares Agreement. Whereas the Agreement called for all the shares to be delivered at closing, the holders are generally restricted to beneficial ownership of up to 4.99% of the company’s common shares outstanding. The Rights to Shares Agreement allows for the Company to issue shares to each holder up the 4.99% limitation while preserving the holders’ rights to the total shares in schedule A of the Agreement.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company incurred $558,792 (2018: $2,052,216) in accretion and interest expense in connection with the convertible debentures.

 

December 26, 2019, all parties signed an amendment to the Agreement which set forth, among other things, the following:

 

Company Principals have given Holders notice that it has satisfied all conditions of closing.

 

The Agreement is considered Closed as of November 5, 2019 (“Settlement Date”) and any conditions of closing not satisfied are waived.

 

Reset Dates. The “Reset Dates” as set forth in Section 1(h) of the Agreement shall be as follows: March 4, 2020 and July 2, 2020. As of the reset dates the holders can convert all or part of the settled note amounts at the lower of (i) 75% of the closing bid price for the Common Stock on such respective Reset Date, or (ii) the VWAP for the Company’s Common Stock for the 7 trading days immediately preceding and including such respective Reset Dates. This reset provision provides for the issuance of additional shares above the initial 5,902,589 shares for no additional consideration as measured at each of the two reset dates.

 

The Company determined that the reset provision represents a standalone derivative liability. Accordingly, this debt restructure transaction was accounted for as an extinguishment of debt for consideration equal to the $2,384,646 fair value of the 5,902,589 common shares issuable, based on the $0.404 quoted trading price of the Company’s common stock price on the settlement date, and the initial fair value of the derivative liability of $12,653,000.

5. CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES (CONTINUED)

 

The Company adjusts its derivative liability to fair value at each reporting and settlement date, with changes in fair value reported in the statement of operations. The Company estimated the fair value of the obligations to issue common stock pursuant to the Debt Restructuring Agreement, as amended, using Monte Carlo simulations and the following assumptions:

 

    November 5,     December  
    2019     31, 2019  
Volatility     617.0 %     738.1 %
Risk Free Rate     1.59 %     1.60 %
Expected Term     0.66       0.50  

 

Derivative Liabilities

 

The Company accounts for its obligation to issue common stock (“Reset Provision”) as derivative instruments in accordance with ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging” which are reflected as liabilities at fair value on the balance sheet, with changes in fair value reported in the statement of operations. Fair value is defined as the price to sell an asset or transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between willing and able market participants. The number of shares of common stock the Company could be obligated to issue, is based on future trading prices of the Company’s common stock. To reflect this uncertainty in estimating the fair value of the potential obligation to issue common stock, the Company uses a Monte Carlo model that considers the reporting date trading price, historical volatility of the Company’s common stock, and risk free rate in estimating the fair value of the potential obligation to issue common stock. The results of the Monte Carlo simulation model are most sensitive to inputs for expected volatility. Depending on the availability of observable inputs and prices, different valuation models could produce materially different fair value estimates. The estimated fair values may not represent future fair values and may not be realizable. We categorize our fair value estimates in accordance with ASC 820 based on the hierarchical framework associated with the three levels of price transparency utilized in measuring financial instruments at fair value as discussed above. As of December 31, 2019, the fair value of the Company’s potential obligation to issue common stock was $12,778,000.

 

The following is a summary of activity related to the derivative liability for the year ended December 31, 2019:

 

Balance, December 31, 2018   $ -  
Reset provision     12,653,000  
Change in fair value     125,000  
Balance, December 31, 2019   $ 12,778,000  

 

6. PROMISSORY NOTE AND CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

 

On December 14, 2018, the Company issued a promissory note for proceeds of $100,000 at 12% interest per annum. The maturity date of the note is December 14, 2019. The note includes a conversion feature that entitles the Holder to receive 1.63% equity ownership of Friendable, Inc. and 18.2% equity ownership of Fan Pass, Inc. upon conversion. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company incurred $1,901 (2018: $599) in interest expense in connection with the promissory note.

 

On December 20, 2019 the note above settled by the issuance of 2,150,000 shares of common stock. The shares were valued at $537,500 based on contemporaneous sales $0.25 of per share resulting in a loss on debt extinguishment of $435,000.

 

On April 7, 2017, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement with Joseph Canouse (the “Agreement”). The Company and Mr. Canouse had been in a dispute regarding what amount, if any, was owed pursuant to a consulting agreement between the parties signed in April 2014. In December 2016, Mr. Canouse obtained a judgment in state court in Georgia and the right to garnish the Company’s bank accounts. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the Company agreed to issue an 8% Convertible Note in the principal amount of $82,931 (the “Note”). The Note was issued to J.P. Carey Inc., an entity controlled by Mr. Canouse. Although the Note is dated March 30, 2017, it was issued on April 7, 2017. In return for the issuance of the Note, Mr. Canouse filed a Consent Motion to Withdraw Judgment, dismiss all garnishments, and cease all collection activities.

 

The Note is convertible into common stock, subject to Rule 144, at any time after the issue date at the lower of (i) the closing sale price of the common stock on the on the trading day immediately preceding the closing date, and (ii) 50% of the lowest sale price for the common stock during the twenty-five (25) consecutive trading days immediately preceding the conversion date or the closing bid price, whichever is lower. Mr. Canouse does not have the right to convert the Note, to the extent that he would beneficially own in excess of 4.9% of our outstanding common stock. In the event of default, the amount of principal and interest not paid when due bear default interest at the rate of 24% per annum and the Note becomes immediately due and payable.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2019:

 

The Company incurred $51,980 in interest related to the note through December 31, 2019.

 

J.P. Carey converted $1,002 of principal into 120,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.0084.

 

J.P. Carey assigned $10,000 of the note to World Market Ventures, LLC and assigned $6,000 of the note to Anvil Financial Management LTD LLC. The assignments carry the same conversion rights as the original note. World Market Ventures converted $6,000 of principal into 120,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.05. Anvil converted $6,000 of principal into 120,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.05.

Preferred Stock:

 

Series A:

 

The Series A Preferred Stock was authorized in 2014 and is convertible into nine (9) times the number of common stock outstanding at time of conversion until the closing of a Qualified Financing (i.e. the sale and issuance of the Company’s equity securities that results in gross proceeds in excess of $2,500,000). The number of shares of common stock issued on conversion of Series A preferred stock is based on the ratio of the number of shares of Series A preferred stock converted to the total number of shares of preferred stock outstanding at the date of conversion multiplied by nine (9) times the number of common stock outstanding at the date of conversion. After the qualified financing the conversion shares issuable shall be the original issue price of the Series A preferred stock divided by $0.002. The holders of Series A Preferred stock are entitled to receive non-cumulative dividends when and if declared at a rate of 6% per year. On all matters presented to the stockholders for action the holders of Series A Preferred stock shall be entitled to cast votes equal to the number of shares the holder would be entitled to if the Series A Preferred stock were converted at the date of record.

In November and December 2019, 149,300 shares of Series C convertible preferred stock were issued to an investor under preferred stock purchase agreements at a price of approximately $0.91 per share for a total of $136,000. Due to the mandatory redemption feature, these shares are reflected as a current liability at December 31, 2019. Furthermore, because these shares are convertible at 71% of the common shares market price around the time of the conversion date, they are treated as a stock settled debt under ASC 480 with a premium of $55,549 recorded and charged to interest expense. The total amount is reflected at $191,549 at December 31, 2019.

10. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

On November 22, 2011, the Board of Directors of the Company approved a stock option plan (“2011 Stock Option Plan”), the purpose of which is to enhance the Company’s stockholder value and financial performance by attracting, retaining and motivating the Company’s officers, directors, key employees, consultants and its affiliates and to encourage stock ownership by such individuals by providing them with a means to acquire a proprietary interest in the Company’s success through stock ownership. Under the 2011 Stock Option Plan, officers, directors, employees and consultants who provide services to the Company may be granted options to acquire common shares of the Company. The aggregate number of options authorized by the plan shall not exceed 4,974 shares of common stock of the Company. 

 

The Board of Directors and the stockholders holding a majority of the voting power approved a 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2014 Plan”) on February 28, 2014, with a to be determined effective date. The date never became effective. The purpose of the 2014 Plan is to assist the Company and its affiliates in attracting, retaining and providing incentives to employees, directors, consultants and independent contractors who serve the Company and its affiliates by offering them the opportunity to acquire or increase their proprietary interest in the Company and to promote the identification of their interests with those of the stockholders of the Company. The 2014 Plan will also be used to make grants to further reward and incentivize current employees and others.

 

There are 7 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2014 Plan. The Board shall have the power and authority to make grants of stock options to employees, directors, consultants and independent contractors who serve the Company and its affiliates. Any stock options granted under the 2014 Plan shall have an exercise price equal to or greater than the fair market value of the Company’s shares of common stock. Unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors, stock options shall vest over a four-year period with 25% being vested after the end of one (1) year of service and the remainder vesting equally over a 36-month period. The Board may award options that may vest based upon the achievement of certain performance milestones. As of December 31, 2019, no options have been awarded under the 2014 Plan. Effective August 27, 2019, the Company effected a reverse split of the common stock of 1 for 18,000 (Note 1) which eliminated all the options which were previously outstanding.

 

11. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

 

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, require an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:

 

Level 1

 

Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market and do not entail a significant degree of judgment.

11. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS (CONTINUED)

 

Level 2

 

Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are other than Level 1 observable inputs such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

 

Level 2 instruments require more management judgment and subjectivity as compared to Level 1 instruments. For instance: determining which instruments are most similar to the instrument being priced requires management to identify a sample of similar securities based on the coupon rates, maturity, issuer, credit rating and instrument type, and subjectively select an individual security or multiple securities that are deemed most similar to the security being priced; and determining whether a market is considered active requires management judgment.

 

Level 3

 

Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities. The determination of fair value for Level 3 instruments requires the most management judgment and subjectivity.

 

Pursuant to ASC 825, cash is based on Level 1 inputs. The Company believes that the recorded values of accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their current fair values because of their nature or respective relatively short durations. The fair value of the Company’s convertible debentures and promissory note approximates their carrying values as the underlying imputed interest rates approximates the estimated current market rate for similar instruments.

 

As of December 31, 2019 there was a derivative measured at fair value on a recurring basis (see note 5) presented on the Company’s balance sheet, as follows:

 

Liabilities at Fair Value
December 31, 2019
 
                         
    Level 1     Level 2     Level 3     Total  
Derivative Liability                     12,778,000       12,778,000

    2019     2018  
Computed tax benefit   $ (2,138,516 )   $ (1,092,701 )
State taxes     (394,200 )     -

Change in tax rate and other     1,143,792       -  
Change in valuation allowance     (498,931 )     430,497  
    $ -     $ -  

 

The Company’s deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2019 and 2018 were as follows:

 

    2019     2018  
Deferred Tax Assets:                
Net operating losses   $ 3,187,626     $ 4,214,782

Other     (186,533 )     (262,500 )
Valuation Allowance     (3,453,351 )     (3,952,282 )
    $ -     $ -  

 

The Company has net operating losses of approximately $12,817,000, of which $10,457,080 expires through 2037 and $2,359,560 may be carried forward indefinitely subject to annual usage limitations. The Company has established a 100% valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets as it is more likely than not they will not be able to utilize such deferred assets in the future. The change in the valuation allowance for the year ended December 31, 2019 was a decrease of $498,931.
