NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2024

 

Note 1.  Basis of Presentation – Going Concern Uncertainties

 

ProtoKinetix, Incorporated (the “Company”), a development stage company, was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 23, 1999.  The Company is a medical research company whose mission is the advancement of human health care.

 

The Company is currently researching the benefits and feasibility of synthesized Antifreeze Glycoproteins (“AFGP”) or anti-aging glycoproteins, trademarked AAGP.  During the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company acquired certain patents and rights for cash consideration of $30,000 (25,000 Euros), as well as additional patent applications for cash consideration of $10,000 and 6,000,000 share purchase warrants with a fair value of $25,000 (Note 4).

 

The Company’s financial statements are prepared consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States applicable to a going concern.

 

The Company has not developed a commercially viable product, has not generated any significant revenue to date, and has incurred losses since inception, resulting in a net accumulated deficit at March 31, 2024.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company needs additional working capital to continue its medical research or to be successful in any future business activities and continue to pay its liabilities.  Therefore, continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining the additional working capital necessary to accomplish its objective.  Management is presently engaged in seeking additional working capital through equity financing or related party loans. In addition, any significant disruption of global financial markets, reducing our ability to access capital, could negatively affect our liquidity and ability to continue operations. The exact impact is and will remain unknown and largely dependent upon future developments, including but not limited to restrictions on the activities of our domestic and international suppliers and shipment of goods.

 

The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recorded assets or liabilities that might be necessary should the Company fail in any of the above objectives and is unable to operate for the coming year.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared by the Company in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) applicable to interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed, or omitted, pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim financial statements include all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature, except as otherwise noted below. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2023, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed March 20, 2024, with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for any other interim period or for a full fiscal year.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont’d)

 

Use of Estimates

 

Preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  The more significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements include estimates as to valuation of equity related instruments issued, deferred income taxes, and the useful life and impairment of intangible assets.

 

Cash

 

Cash consists of funds held in checking accounts.  Cash balances may exceed federally insured limits from time to time.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Financial instruments, which includes cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities are carried at amortized cost, which management believes approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

 

The Company measures the fair value of financial assets and liabilities pursuant to ASC 820 "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The policy describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

 

Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable.

Level 3 – inputs that are unobservable (for example cash flow modeling inputs based on assumptions).

 

At March 31, 2024, there were no other assets or liabilities subject to additional disclosure.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes following the assets and liability method in accordance with the ASC 740 "Income Taxes."  Under such method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  The Company applies the accounting guidance issued to address the accounting for uncertain tax positions.  This guidance clarifies the accounting for income taxes, by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements as well as provides guidance on derecognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years that the asset is expected to be recovered or the liability settled.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont’d)

 

Intangible assets – patent and patent application costs

 

The Company owns intangible assets consisting of certain patents and patent applications. Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses. Subsequent expenditures are capitalized only when they increase the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which they relate. All other expenditures are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.

 

As at March 31, 2024, the Company does not hold any intangible assets with indefinite lives.

 

Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the useful economic life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortization method and amortization period of an intangible asset with a finite life is reviewed at least annually.

 

Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset is accounted for by changing the amortization period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates.

 

Amortization is recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the Company's patents, whereas no amortization has been recognized on the not yet approved patent application costs at March 31, 2024.

 

Research and Development Costs

 

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. This includes all research consultant’s fees and costs of contract research organizations.

 

Loss per Share and Potentially Dilutive Securities

 

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding in the period.  Diluted loss per share takes into consideration common shares outstanding (computed under basic earnings per share) and potentially dilutive securities.  The effect of 94,290,000 stock options (March 31, 2023 – 94,290,000), and 6,000,000 warrants (March 31, 2023 – 13,300,000) were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share for all periods presented because it was anti-dilutive due to the Company’s losses.

 

Share-Based Compensation

 

The Company has granted warrants and options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock to various parties for consulting services.  The fair values of the warrants and options issued have been estimated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model.

 

The Company accounts for stock compensation with persons classified as employees for accounting purposes in accordance with ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation”, which recognizes awards at fair value on the date of grant and recognition of compensation over the service period for awards expected to vest. Cliff Vesting is used and awards vest on the last day of the vesting period. The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model. The fair value of common shares issued for services is determined based on the Company’s stock price on the date of issuance.

Share-Based Compensation (cont’d)

 

 Share-based compensation for non-employees in exchange for goods and services used or consumed in an entity’s own operations are also recorded at fair value on the measurement date and accounted for in accordance with ASC 718. The measurement of share-based compensation is subject to periodic adjustment as the underlying instruments vest. The fair value of stock options is estimated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model and the compensation charges are amortized over the vesting period.

Results of Operations

 

The following table shows selected financial data and operating results for the periods noted.  Following the table, please see management’s discussion of significant changes.

 

   For the Three Months Ended 
   March 31, 
   2024   2023 
EXPENSES        
Amortization  $11,317   $10,703 
General and Administrative   14,125    32,763 
Professional Fees   29,959    40,893 
Research and Development   36,625    22,679 
Net loss for the period  $(92,026)   (107,038)

  

Gross Profit and Expenses

 

The Company’s net loss was $92,026 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 compared to $107,038 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2023.  The expenses were primarily incurred for professional fees, consulting services related to the operations of the Company’s business, research and development and other general and administrative expenses.  Significant changes from the prior three-month period ended March 31, 2023 include:

 

General and administrative fees dropped by $18,638 from $32,763 to $14,125 primarily as a result of a decrease in spending on social media advertising, and other outside services. Additionally no current year project expenses related to product development.

 

Professional fees decreased by $10,934 from $40,893 to $29,959 due to decreases in legal billing associated with year end reporting.

 

Research and development expenditures increased slightly year over year with a change of $13,946 from $22,679 to $36,625 as the Company paid for molecule storage and study results. The company continues to pursue research partners for cost sharing and engages institutes with grants available for continued studies on our patented AAGP molecule.

 

Share-based compensation remained unchanged at $Nil for current three-month period and $Nil as at March 31, 2023 as a result of no further stock options being granted to directors and management of the Company as at March 31, 2024.

 

 

19 
 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The following summarizes our balance sheet at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

 

   March 31, 2024   December 31, 2023 
Cash  $2,836   $20,408 
           
Working Capital  $(63,683)  $(23,238)

  

At March 31, 2024, we had $2,836 in cash and $3,886 in total current assets and a negative working capital equity position of $(63,683). Based upon our working capital equity as of March 31, 2024, we will require additional equity and/or debt financing in order to meet cash flow projections and carry forward our business objectives.  

 

There can be no assurance that in the future we will be able to raise capital from outside sources in sufficient amounts to fund our new business. The failure to secure adequate outside funding would have an adverse effect on our plan of operation and results therefrom and a corresponding negative impact on stockholder liquidity.

  

Sources and Uses of Cash

 

Net Cash Used in Operating Activities

 

Net cash used in operating activities fell by $27,029 from $84,865 to $57,836 for the three-months ended March 31, 2023, and 2024, respectively. With the year over year change primarily from an increase in accounts payable.

 

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

 

Net cash used in investing activities was $9,736 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 while the Company had net cash used in investing activities of $13,743 for the comparative period.  The difference is attributable to a drop in patent application billings for the first quarter of the current year.

 

Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities

 

Net cash provided by financing activities decreased $30,000 from $80,000 to $50,000 for the three-months ended March 31, 2023, and 2024, respectively. The decrease of funding from private placements through the first of 2024 reflects the focus on finding financial partners for further research and development.

 

Going Concern

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”), which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern.  The history of losses and the inability for the Company to make a profit from selling a good or service has raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. In spite of the fact that the current cash obligations of the Company are relatively minimal, given the cash position of the Company, we have very little cash to operate. We intend to fund the Company and attempt to meet corporate obligations by selling common stock.  However, the price and volume of the Company’s common stock is volatile.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

None.

 

Contractual Obligations

 

As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to provide the information required by paragraph (a)(5) of this Item.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make a variety of estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements, and (ii) the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods covered by the financial statements.

 

Our management routinely makes judgments and estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. As the number of variables and assumptions affecting the future resolution of the uncertainties increase, these judgments become even more subjective and complex. Although we believe that our estimates and assumptions are reasonable, actual results may differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in estimates and assumptions based upon actual results may have a material impact on our results of operation and/or financial condition. Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in Note 2 to the Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q.

 

While all of the significant accounting policies are important to the Company’s financial statements, the following accounting policies and the estimates derived there from have been identified as being critical.

 

20 
 

Share-Based Compensation

 

The Company has granted warrants and options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock to various parties for consulting services.  The fair values of the warrants and options issued have been estimated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model.

 

The Company accounts for stock compensation with persons classified as employees for accounting purposes in accordance with ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation”, which recognizes awards at fair value on the date of grant and recognition of compensation over the service period for awards expected to vest. Cliff Vesting is used and awards vest on the last day of the vesting period. The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model. The fair value of common shares issued for services is determined based on the Company’s stock price on the date of issuance.

 

Share-based compensation for non-employees in exchange for goods and services used or consumed in an entity’s own operations are also recorded at fair value on the measurement date and accounted for in accordance with ASC 718. The measurement of share-based compensation is subject to periodic adjustment as the underlying instruments vest. The fair value of stock options is estimated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model and the compensation charges are amortized over the vesting period.

 

Sales and Marketing

 

The Company is currently not selling or marketing any products.

 

Inflation

 

Although management expects that our operations will be influenced by general economic conditions, we do not believe that inflation had a material effect on our results of operations during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

 

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide information required by this item.

 

Item 4: Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the 1934 Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the 1934 Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Our management, under the direction of our Chief Executive Officer (who is our principal executive officer), and Chief Financial Officer (who is our principal accounting officer) has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as required by 1934 Act Rule 13a-15(b) as of March 31, 2024 (the end of the period covered by this report). Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal accounting officer concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are not effective as of March 31, 2024 to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the 1934 Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and are not effective to provide reasonable assurance that such information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms.

 

The Company, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that its internal controls and procedures will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived or operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.

 

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated by the SEC under the 1934 Act) during the three-months ended March 31, 2024, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Other than previously reported, the Company and its management are not aware of any regulatory or legal proceedings or investigations pending involving the Company, any of its subsidiaries or affiliates, or any of their respective officers, directors or employees.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide information required by this Item.  However, our current risk factors are set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 as filed with the SEC on March 20, 2024.

These processes cover areas such as, but not limited to, risk management, access control, anti-virus management, sensitive data management, electronic communication, risk/security reporting, incident response planning and business continuation planning. Our Information Security Team is comprised of our Chief Financial Officer and third-party IT support. It is responsible for (i) administering the Company’s policies and procedures in conjunction with our third-party information technology provider, Netranom Communications (“IT Provider”); (ii) distributing our policies to consultants and providing training; (iii) responding to consultant inquiries regarding our policies; (iv) overseeing our cybersecurity program and leading incident response efforts; (v) monitoring for cybersecurity-related legal or regulatory developments; coordinating with management, our IT Provider and /or legal counsel to discuss cybersecurity-related issues or topics; and (vi) reviewing and updating our policies as necessary and on an annual basis.

 

The Information Security Team carries out risk management primarily by outsourcing risks to those companies and agencies that specialize in handling such risks and that have the appropriate resources to do so. Our IT Provider has more than 20 years of experience in the latest technologies and experiences in a variety of network configurations.  The IT Provider also has the ability to analyze cybersecurity presence and technology processes to provide reports as needed.  The IT Provider currently manages and monitors our network, configures systems and controls, provides assistance and support during an incident and detects threats through antivirus scans, firewalls and base level spam filters.

 

Governance

 

Management is ultimately responsible for assessing and managing the Company’s cybersecurity risk. The information security program is overseen by the Chief Financial Officer. The Board is then briefed upon the occurrence of any cybersecurity incidents and is provided an overview of the information security program on an annual basis, including updates on the IT team, IT training, implementation of IT controls, cybersecurity testing, the incident response process and the cybersecurity assets of the Company.

 

In the last fiscal year, we have not identified any risks from known cybersecurity threats that have materially affected the Company or our financial position, results of operations and/or cash flows. We continue to invest in cybersecurity and the resiliency of our networks and to enhance our internal controls and processes, which are designed to help protect our systems and infrastructure, and the information they contain. For more information regarding the risks we face from cybersecurity threats, please see “Risk Factors.”

Basis of Presentation – Going Concern Uncertainties

Note 1.  Basis of Presentation – Going Concern Uncertainties

 

ProtoKinetix, Incorporated (the “Company”), a development stage company, was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 23, 1999.  The Company is a medical research company whose mission is the advancement of human health care.

 

The Company is currently researching the benefits and feasibility of synthesized Antifreeze Glycoproteins (“AFGP”) or anti-aging glycoproteins, trademarked AAGP.  During the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company acquired certain patents and rights for cash consideration of $30,000 (25,000 Euros), as well as additional patent applications for cash consideration of $10,000 and 6,000,000 share purchase warrants with a fair value of $25,000 (Note 4).

 

The Company’s financial statements are prepared consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States applicable to a going concern.

 

The Company has not developed a commercially viable product, has not generated any significant revenue to date, and has incurred losses since inception, resulting in a net accumulated deficit at March 31, 2024.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The Company needs additional working capital to continue its medical research or to be successful in any future business activities and continue to pay its liabilities.  Therefore, continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining the additional working capital necessary to accomplish its objective.  Management is presently engaged in seeking additional working capital through equity financing or related party loans. In addition, any significant disruption of global financial markets, reducing our ability to access capital, could negatively affect our liquidity and ability to continue operations. The exact impact is and will remain unknown and largely dependent upon future developments, including but not limited to restrictions on the activities of our domestic and international suppliers and shipment of goods.

 

The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recorded assets or liabilities that might be necessary should the Company fail in any of the above objectives and is unable to operate for the coming year.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Accounting Policies [Abstract]  
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared by the Company in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) applicable to interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed, or omitted, pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim financial statements include all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature, except as otherwise noted below. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2023, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed March 20, 2024, with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for any other interim period or for a full fiscal year.

 

Use of Estimates

 

Preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  The more significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements include estimates as to valuation of equity related instruments issued, deferred income taxes, and the useful life and impairment of intangible assets.

 

Cash

 

Cash consists of funds held in checking accounts.  Cash balances may exceed federally insured limits from time to time.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Financial instruments, which includes cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities are carried at amortized cost, which management believes approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

 

The Company measures the fair value of financial assets and liabilities pursuant to ASC 820 "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The policy describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

 

Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable.

Level 3 – inputs that are unobservable (for example cash flow modeling inputs based on assumptions).

 

At March 31, 2024, there were no other assets or liabilities subject to additional disclosure.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes following the assets and liability method in accordance with the ASC 740 "Income Taxes."  Under such method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.  The Company applies the accounting guidance issued to address the accounting for uncertain tax positions.  This guidance clarifies the accounting for income taxes, by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements as well as provides guidance on derecognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years that the asset is expected to be recovered or the liability settled.

 

Intangible assets – patent and patent application costs

 

The Company owns intangible assets consisting of certain patents and patent applications. Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses. Subsequent expenditures are capitalized only when they increase the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which they relate. All other expenditures are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.

 

As at March 31, 2024, the Company does not hold any intangible assets with indefinite lives.

 

Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over the useful economic life and assessed for impairment whenever there is an indication that the intangible asset may be impaired. The amortization method and amortization period of an intangible asset with a finite life is reviewed at least annually.

 

Changes in the expected useful life or the expected pattern of consumption of future economic benefits embodied in the asset is accounted for by changing the amortization period or method, as appropriate, and are treated as changes in accounting estimates.

 

Amortization is recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the Company's patents, whereas no amortization has been recognized on the not yet approved patent application costs at March 31, 2024.

 

Research and Development Costs

 

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. This includes all research consultant’s fees and costs of contract research organizations.

 

Loss per Share and Potentially Dilutive Securities

 

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding in the period.  Diluted loss per share takes into consideration common shares outstanding (computed under basic earnings per share) and potentially dilutive securities.  The effect of 94,290,000 stock options (March 31, 2023 – 94,290,000), and 6,000,000 warrants (March 31, 2023 – 13,300,000) were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share for all periods presented because it was anti-dilutive due to the Company’s losses.

 

Share-Based Compensation

 

The Company has granted warrants and options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock to various parties for consulting services.  The fair values of the warrants and options issued have been estimated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model.

 

The Company accounts for stock compensation with persons classified as employees for accounting purposes in accordance with ASC 718 “Compensation – Stock Compensation”, which recognizes awards at fair value on the date of grant and recognition of compensation over the service period for awards expected to vest. Cliff Vesting is used and awards vest on the last day of the vesting period. The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model. The fair value of common shares issued for services is determined based on the Company’s stock price on the date of issuance.

 

 Share-based compensation for non-employees in exchange for goods and services used or consumed in an entity’s own operations are also recorded at fair value on the measurement date and accounted for in accordance with ASC 718. The measurement of share-based compensation is subject to periodic adjustment as the underlying instruments vest. The fair value of stock options is estimated using the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model and the compensation charges are amortized over the vesting period.

 

Common stock

 

Common stock issued for non-monetary consideration are recorded at their fair value on the measurement date and classified as equity. The measurement date is defined as the earliest of the date at which the commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the common shares is reached or the date at which the counterparty’s performance is complete.

 

Transaction costs directly attributable to the issuance of common stock, units and stock options are recognized as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects.

 

Related Party Transactions

 

A related party is generally defined as (i) any person that holds 10% or more of the Company’s securities and their immediate families, (ii) the Company’s management, (iii) someone that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the Company, or (iv) anyone who can significantly influence the financial and operating decisions of the Company.  A transaction is considered to be a related party transaction when there is a transfer of resources or obligations between related parties.

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared by the Company in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) applicable to interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed, or omitted, pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim financial statements include all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature, except as otherwise noted below. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2023, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed March 20, 2024, with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for any other interim period or for a full fiscal year.

 

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

 

Preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  The more significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements include estimates as to valuation of equity related instruments issued, deferred income taxes, and the useful life and impairment of intangible assets.

 

Cash

Cash

 

Cash consists of funds held in checking accounts.  Cash balances may exceed federally insured limits from time to time.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Financial instruments, which includes cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities are carried at amortized cost, which management believes approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.
